Zhu Zhi's office.

Chu Ming knocked on the door and went into the office.

"Director Zhu, are you looking for me?" asked Chu Ming.

"Xiao Chu is here, sit down, don't be restrained between us. Zhu Zhi was full of smiles, really proud, "I didn't call you here for anything else, our channel will hold a commendation meeting next week, and I have already submitted your name, talents like you need to be rewarded and encouraged." ”

"Thank you, Director Zhu, in fact, it's all a credit to everyone. Chu Ming was unfazed.

He didn't experience any scenes, what kind of commendation meeting was this, Chu Ming really didn't care too much.

"It is very rare for you to have this awareness, without the support of the station and the command of the leadership, we really cannot achieve such results. Zhu Zhi nodded with satisfaction, "I heard that all your shows have been recorded?"

"The morning just ended. Chu Ming nodded.

"I also heard that you are going to serialize the text version of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms on the Internet?" Zhu Zhi asked again.

"That's right, but don't worry, my serialization progress won't exceed our show, and there won't be spoilers. Chu Ming explained.

"I'm not worried about this problem, I just want to tell you, you don't have to worry about serialization, Taili has already helped you contact the publishing house, and we are ready to publish the Romance of the Three Kingdoms in the form of a physical book. Zhu Zhi said with a smile.

"But I've already talked to the website and I'm ready to go online, and they also promised me that they would help me take care of the publication of the physical book, so I wouldn't bother Taili. Chu Ming said with a smile.

"How can you go past our TV station and discuss with outsiders? This is obviously a violation!" Zhu Zhi was unhappy, and his face was a little ugly.

Chu Ming was strange, my own book, the copyright is in my hands, who do I want to talk to and who I want to talk to, what is it about you!

Chu Ming was still about to speak, and Zhu Zhi had already made a decision for him.

"Fortunately, I found out early, it's still too late to make amends, Xiao Chu, you immediately withdraw the negotiation with the website, and hand over the copyright of the three countries to our station, you don't have to worry about other things in the future, this is the authorization agreement, two million buyout fees, it's very fair." ”

Chu Ming thought about it, because the physical book of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms is in the form of semi-literal language, the effect of serialization on the Internet is really not good.

It's a good idea to go physical, and with Jingtai's experience in this area, it's indeed a good choice to hand it over to them.

As for the two million physical copyright buyout fee, it is quite reasonable, so I will suffer a little loss and form a good relationship with Taili.

"Director Zhu, where is the power of attorney, if it's okay, I'll sign it. ”

"It was the right decision. Zhu Zhi smiled and handed over a power of attorney, "It's good that you sign here." ”

"It's okay, I'll take another look. Chu Ming was very cautious about things to sign such as contracts.

"Can we treat you badly? You can't trust us. Zhu Zhi said a little blamed.

"Get used to it. Chu Ming smiled, didn't care, and continued to watch.

Then, sure enough, he noticed the problem.

This copyright buyout fee is 2 million, yes, but this is not just the copyright of the physical book, but all the copyrights about the Romance of the Three Kingdoms and the Three Kingdoms program.

Including but not limited to adaptation rights, film and television rights, electronic copyrights, derivative IP, all copyrights are transferred to TV stations.

That's excessive!

"Director Zhu, is this a mistake? All the copyrights of my Romance of the Three Kingdoms will be transferred to Taili?" Chu Ming asked cautiously.

"That's right, you don't have the ability to talk about these film and television copyright development copyrights, it just so happens that we have the ability to hand over the copyright to Taiwan for operation, which can make the influence of the Three Kingdoms more far-reaching, and it will be good for you and us. Zhu Zhi said with a smile.

"I thought that the buyout fee of two million refers to the copyright of the physical book, if it is all copyrights, I can't accept it, this buyout price is too low!" Chu Ming said simply.

Zhu Zhi was dissatisfied with Chu Ming's reaction: "The buyout fee of two million is not low, you don't know how difficult it is to operate the copyright now, especially the film and television of your Three Kingdoms is even more difficult, the scene is too grand, it really costs a lot to make movies and TV series, and the market cannot guarantee it, the benefits are not good, in fact, it is very difficult to operate, the buyout fee of two million, we already have to take a lot of risks, young people don't be satisfied." ”

Not enough to be!

You're just playing me like a fool!

The copyright of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms is difficult to operate, and it is not popular?

Net!

Among the four famous novels, the film and television of the Three Kingdoms are the most popular.

Not to mention TV series, there are countless movies with the theme of Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and the box office is also very terrible.

Take Chibi as an example, in order to make money desperately, it was divided into two movies to shoot.

In this regard, Journey to the West can wrestle with the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

However, the Three Kingdoms is not only film and television, but also has a much more powerful influence in terms of games than Journey to the West.

In any case, the Romance of the Three Kingdoms is a cornucopia with unlimited potential, at least it can create more than a billion economic benefits, but Zhu Zhi said that it was difficult to operate, and it cost two million to buy it out.

You should send it to Hanako!

Do you have to take risks? If you really can't make money, you need to take risks, and you stupidly buy out all the copyrights?

Still accusing Chu Ming of not being content?

The price of buying out the copyright of the physical book of two million is too little, Chu Ming has taken a step back, wanting to be a good person and give profits to the TV station, but what the TV station wants is not the physical book but all the copyrights, who is not satisfied?

Chu Ming said euphemistically: "I'm sorry, director, I don't want to sell all the copyrights for the time being, if it's the copyright of the physical book, we can talk about it again, if it's the full copyright, then there's no need to talk about it." ”

"Why don't you understand, our station is also for your own good, and we value you very much, but now the general situation is not good, and if you don't hand it over to us to operate, it will be equivalent to smashing good things in your own hands, and it will not be good for you or me! Taiwan's willingness to spend 2 million to buy out the copyright is already very bad, and you should also be considerate. Zhu Zhi said earnestly.

When Chu Ming heard this, he almost laughed out loud.

As for your buyout fee, you still say that you are at a loss?

"Since Taili is not optimistic, I naturally can't bear to watch Taili lose money, so the matter of full copyright will be settled for the time being. Chu Ming was about to leave after refusing.

Zhu Zhi hurriedly stopped him, and his tone was already a little stern: "Xiao Chu, what's the matter with you, you should know how our TV station treated you, you caused a mess on Donghai Satellite TV, lost your job and lost your heat, it was our TV station that took you in and provided you with a platform to have the popularity of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms today, this can be regarded as our common achievement, how can you monopolize it alone?"

Hearing this, Chu Ming was angry, you Zhu Zhi are talking about human words? Obviously, I have a normal employment relationship with the TV station, what is it called to take in, what is exclusivity? It was Xiao Fan who gave him the opportunity to interview before he could enter the station, what does it have to do with you Zhu Zhi? Chu Ming has helped Taiwan solve countless crises since he entered Taiwan, whether it is public service advertisements, or the Romance of the Three Kingdoms that saved the scene this time, Chu Ming unconditionally took out these works, not only helped the TV station survive countless crises, but also improved the image of the literary channel.

Looking at this posture, it makes sense to be forced to buy your own copyright in turn?

Chu Ming didn't want to tear his face: "I'm sorry, I used this Romance of the Three Kingdoms to save the scene in Taili, I don't think there's anything wrong, copyright matters are discussed here, I'm sorry Director Zhu." ”

"I have applied for excellent employees for you, and I will be commended next week, and it chills me when you do this. Zhu Zhi frowned.

A broken commendation conference, Chu Ming is not uncommon at all.

"Thank you for the understanding of the leadership, I think that my level of ability is not enough to be worthy of this honor. ”

Seeing that Chu Ming didn't eat soft and hard, and didn't eat oil and salt, Zhu Zhitie was angry with a blue face.

But he also has a clear mind, knowing that Chu Ming's ability is very strong, and he is still some distance away from the position in the platform, and he still needs to use Chu Ming as his stepping stone, and it is not appropriate to tear his face, so he said in a low voice.

"Forget it, since you care so much about money, let's put aside the copyright thing, we don't force it, forget about the commendation. ”

"Then I'll take my leave. Chu Ming left the office.

Chu Ming actually knew very well that although Zhu Zhi generously let himself go, the relationship between the two was completely broken.

In fact, Chu Ming had already seen Zhu Zhi's face clearly, this kind of person is typical of two-faced and three-faced, if you can work for him to create benefits, he will be very good to you, but once you touch his interests, he will instantly change his face and forget all your previous contributions!

According to Zhu Zhi's character, the reason why there is no complete showdown now is because he still has use value, and when he finishes using it, he will settle accounts with himself.

However, Chu Ming is not afraid, the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, he has not been afraid of anyone!

On the way back to the office, Chu Ming met Father Song.

"Teacher Xiao Chu, you came out of Zhu Zhi's office?"

"That's right. ”

"Be careful, if he asks you to transfer the copyright, you have to read the terms and conditions and don't sign them blindly. Father Song reminded in a low voice, "I heard that Zhu Zhi is promoting the copyright of the Three Kingdoms on the TV station, and many companies have approached Zhu Zhi to discuss the film and television copyright of the Three Kingdoms, and the price is 10 million. ”

Chu Ming sneered in his heart, no wonder you Zhu Zhi are so eager, it turns out that the price has already been negotiated, 10 million film and television copyrights, you will give me 2 million, this intermediary order is simply useless!

"Thank you for reminding me, Uncle Song, I have rejected Zhu Zhi's power of attorney, and the copyright is still in my hands. Chu Ming sincerely thanked.

To be honest, Daddy Song's move was to offend the leader, it was completely unnecessary, and others probably wouldn't remind him, but Daddy Song was worried that he still spoke, and this friendship alone was worth remembering by Chu Ming.

"That's good, I can't say much about this, in short, you pay more attention to yourself. Father Song then left.

……

Chu Ming returned to the office, Xiao Fan asked about being called to the office, Chu Ming did not hide it, and said it 1510.

"This is too much, do you want to buy out the entire copyright for two million and bully people!" Daming expressed indignation.

"Mr. Chu, don't sell it, I asked a friend about it, and now the film and television company's price for the copyright of the Three Kingdoms is at least more than 10 million. Xiaofei also reminded.

"It's okay, I didn't sign it, but the excellent staff is out of play. Chu Ming smiled indifferently.

"Excellent employees are trivial matters, I'm worried that Zhu Zhi will wear small shoes for you, he is too vindictive. Guang Bing became worried, "Father Song offended him at the beginning, but now the establishment is not settled." ”
