Chapter 89: Did You Do That?
Chapter 89 Did you do that?
After making the call, Zhou Yi immediately sent the phone number to Hu Fei, and then explained the information he had called to his boss.
Hu Fei, who received the information, nodded, this is the difference between those who can do things and those who can't do things, people who can't do things are generally the boss who tells them what to do, but people can do things, that is, they first pave the roads needed for the boss to do, and the boss just wades over.
simply parked the car on the side of the road, Yang Yiqing in the back quickly stopped the car, Hu Fei got out of the car, beckoned Yang Yiqing and sat directly in the co-pilot's seat.
Later, Yang Yiqing got out of the car directly, and as for the G65, it was naturally handed over to Holman to drive, and he just had to follow.
"Driving home, I had something to do. Hu Fei said hello to Yang Yiqing, and then opened the novel website first, and searched directly according to the rankings.
He was indeed ready to look for it.
However, after clicking on the rankings, Hu Fei suddenly thought of a book, a popular book in science fiction, the novel that created an infinite stream, infinite horror.
Don't think about it, that's it, Hu Fei's eyes lit up. Although other science fiction novels also throw money at it, it is not as good as spending money on infinite horror! How much does it cost to buy those copyrights alone? This is a lot of money!
Thinking of this, Hu Fei directly closed the website, and then made a phone call to the person in charge of the copyright department of China Literature.
"Hello, is it Mr. Hu?" the other party was obviously waiting for the phone, and as soon as he picked up the phone, he asked directly tentatively.
"Hello Mr. Tian, I'm Hu Fei. Hu Fei nodded.
"Hello Mr. Hu, hello, I just heard Mr. Zhou say, you are going to buy the copyright of our novel? I don't know which novel you have taken ainto?" Mr. Tian immediately asked with a smile.
"Infinite horror. Hu Fei directly said a name.
"Infinite horror?" Mr. Tian was stunned for a moment, he thought of a lot of science fiction novels, but he just didn't think of this one.
Is this novel not exciting? No, no, this novel was very good at the time, both in terms of creativity and excitement, and there were many infinite flow novels in the later period that were quite good, but this one, as the originator of the mountain, is the most powerful in terms of popularity and so on.
But its copyright is not easy to sell, especially film and television copyright, because it involves other popular movies, whether you make a TV series or a movie, just buying these related movie copyrights is a terrifying astronomical amount.
And its benefits are an unknown, because it itself must be more adult, not the kind suitable for all ages, in this case, the audience must be smaller.
The income is unknown, and the investment is terrifying, so its film and television copyrights are not cared for.
"This, have you read the novel?" asked Mr. Tian after a moment's hesitation.
"Of course I did, I know what you're worried about, and now you give me a price. Hu Fei didn't talk nonsense, and asked directly.
"Huh?" Mr. Tian choked for a moment, is it so simple? But after thinking about it, he still tentatively quoted a price: "Ten million?"
As a novel with a relatively hot theme, this copyright fee is not high.
"Okay, I'll let Zhou Yi call you later, and it's okay for him to sign the contract tomorrow, right?" Hu Fei immediately nodded and said.
"......" Mr. Tian was directly confused, I damn it, this promise is so happy? He suddenly felt that his asking price was too low? The question is...... It's not low, to be honest, don't talk about this price, it's five million, they have tried to sell it before, but unfortunately, no one wants it.
"This ...... Although I know that this is not within my scope, there are some things I think I still have to say in front, for example, this film and television adaptation right is definitely not permanent, 10 million, we can only transfer ten years of adaptation time, if you have no adaptation within ten years, or the intention of adaptation, we will take back the copyright. Mr. Tian said something about it.
"Okay, no problem, the specific Zhou Yi will talk to you, I want to sign the contract tomorrow morning, no problem, right?" Hu Fei immediately asked.
“…… No problem. "People didn't even say a single objection, what else could he have a problem with.
"That's good. I'll hang up first, because I'm about to set up a crew here, so please hurry up with the relevant procedures. Hu Fei explained with a smile, and did not hide his urgency, I believe that the other party still has this integrity.
Mr. Tian was speechless, you haven't even talked about copyright, are you about to prepare the crew? Are you kidding? You're just talking about the copyright of the novel now, what about the movies involved in the novel?
But he is embarrassed to ask about these things, after all, he is not very familiar, since people are willing to pay, of course there is no problem with the copyright of their novel adaptation.
"In addition, you can help me contact the author, I am willing to pay 10 million to ask the author to help participate in the adaptation of the script, I will directly respect the original plot, and I will also ask some well-known screenwriters to help with the adaptation. Hu Fei spoke directly again.
"......" Mr. Tian was speechless directly, if it wasn't for someone else to take the initiative to say it, he actually wanted to say it, generally speaking, if you buy the right to adapt a work, the author has the obligation to help adapt the work, after all, people have a copyright, of course, some wages are paid depending on the amount of work, the problem is ...... Your mouth is 10 million, I really want to regret it.
After finalizing it, Hu Fei hung up the phone.
"You want to shoot infinite horror?" Yang Yiqing, who was watching the car, couldn't help but ask.
"Have you seen it?" Hu Fei was a little surprised.
"Yes. Yang Yiqing nodded.
"Well, I decided to shoot it. Hu Fei nodded immediately, and then said with some excitement: "I can't wait to see what it will look like on the big screen after it is filmed." ”
Yang Yiqing wanted to speak, but she still held back, because she didn't know what to say, but she really didn't hold back, "That, sir, aren't you ready to be released? ”
After speaking, if it weren't for driving, Yang Yiqing really wanted to slap herself in the mouth, is it really good to be such a heart-piercing boss?
"Well, yes, you have a point. Hu Fei was stunned for a moment, then his eyes lit up, and he quickly stretched out his hand and patted Yang Yiqing's shoulder: "Hahaha, Yiqing, you are really a genius! Well, it's better to transform it into the world's largest IMAX theater, so I think it's at least 10 million, yes, and it cost millions of dollars, it's just beautiful. ”
Yang Yiqing: "...... no, boss, I really didn't mean that."
"Yes, Yiqing did a good job and raised her salary, so that she would give you a million bonus in a while. Hu Fei directly waved his hand and said excitedly.
Yang Yiqing: Although "......" took the money, but I don't know why, she doesn't want to talk a little.
