Lin Han is actually not sensitive to these sales, what he cares about is how much money he can get for so many sales, if calculated according to the total sales of two million copies, his royalties are directly capped at 15%, and the price of each book is about 36 yuan.

In other words, theoretically, he can get a total of 10 million yuan before tax, including the manuscript fee that has been paid to him.

It's just that this calculation is too idealistic, not every book is sold according to the original price, Lin Han himself agreed to discount the novel, and the discount range of each dealer is different, and the calculation is more complicated.

If you add tax deductions, then only more than 7 million will arrive in the end, and then let Chen Jiaxuan take a part, Lin Han's total income should be 6 million.

The six million is his total remuneration, of which many have been sent, and he will probably get about one million every month in the future.

In this case alone, he is not actually a big man on the list of rich writers, but he still has electronic sales channels and overseas sales revenue, especially the Amazon online bookstore, which has a share of up to 70%.

After silently calculating the money he could get, Lin Han's shooting expenses in his heart have been completed by about 15%, and the money-making plan has to continue.

Originally, he was not a person who particularly valued money, but now he has to be a miser, he can't move an inch without money, and he can't even afford to make movies.

If he uses his big IP "The Martian" to find others to finance filming, it will be more difficult, and he will not be able to fully control the crew by himself.

After a series of incidents encountered by the original owner during the filming of "Out of the Solar System", Lin Han understood that only by firmly grasping the production rights would he not be blinded by others.

Even if he finds someone else to invest, then he must take the initiative and not hand over the power to others, otherwise what awaits him may be another failure.

Of course, Lin Han has now spent about 3 million yuan lavishly, invested 2 million yuan in "Fantasy Times" magazine, and bought a car with another 1 million, and now he is not thinking about buying a house at all.

If Yanjing's house is bought, then Lin Han's money-saving plan can be declared a failure, although the house he rents now is small, it is better than warmth, and it is completely enough for one person to live.

Chen Jiaxuan understood Lin Han's thoughts, and she also tried hard to help Lin Han realize her dream, so she said: "Your task is to write novels well, how to sell them is my business with the publishing house, you just need to ask the accounting firm to verify the sales records with the publishing house." ”

While the two were talking, the tinkling doorbell suddenly rang.

Lin Han and Chen Jiaxuan glanced at each other, not knowing who was still looking for him at this time, "Maybe it's from the property." ”

Wearing slippers, Lin Han opened the door and found two blonde foreigners standing outside the door with a Chinese, which was a little embarrassing.

Everyone else wore straight shirts, but Lin Han was wearing a loose jersey and flip-flops, and his hair was not taken care of, lying on it in a mess.

"May I ask who you are?" Lin Han was the first to ask in Chinese, he didn't know the three people here at all, so he set his eyes on the only Chinese next to him.

As if seeing Lin Han's doubts, the middle-aged man with blond hair in the lead said in fluent English: "Mr. Lin, I'm sorry that we appeared outside your door so suddenly, this is our presumptuousness, please forgive me." I'm the Vice President of Paramount Worldwide, and you can call me Jack. ”

Foreigners pay attention to making an appointment in advance, which is a matter of politeness, but they do not comply with it when they arrive in China, which makes Lin Han a little uncomfortable.

And he has never exposed the community or even the house number, these three foreigners can find here, then the rest of them must be able to do it, maybe it was revealed by the National People's Congress Publishing House, and I asked them to send the signed book here last time.

Although there was a little dislike in his heart, the visitor was a guest, and he was embarrassed to refuse, he said: "It's not a big deal, please come in, the house is relatively small." ”

"Lin Han, who is here?" Chen Jiaxuan stood up from the sofa, and then found the three of them, "Mr. Cheng, how did you find here, please take a seat." ”

Cheng Huaiyuan also knew that he was very sudden, he explained: "Miss Chen, we came here with sincerity this time, Mr. Harrison flew from the United States to talk about the film adaptation plan of "The Martian". ”

Paramount is a well-known name and has produced many excellent movies, making it one of the most famous studios in Hollywood.

Chen Jiaxuan introduced Cheng Huaiyuan's identity to Lin Han in a low voice, "Cheng over there is always one of the heads of Paramount in Asia, and I used to negotiate with him, but the conditions given before were not satisfactory, so I didn't pay attention to it." ”

Lin Han nodded to understand, he didn't think that "The Martian" had such a charm that could make the busy Jack Harrison make a special trip, maybe someone else just came to Yanjing to do business, and saw that he was on the way.

"Mr. Lin, to be honest, I'm a huge fan of science fiction and science fiction movies, in fact, we are more optimistic about the future of this film when we discuss the future of this film adaptation, even if it has an all-Chinese background, we can just leave the main storyline and change the background of the characters to Europe and the United States, just like the previous adaptation of "Infernal Affairs". ”

There are also "Infernal Affairs" and the adaptation of "The Departed" in this world, and "The Departed" (also known as the Departed), which swept the box office and the Oscars, is obviously the most successful Hollywood adaptation of a Chinese-language film.

It's just that Lin Han has silently begun to complain in his heart, and he finally changed "The Martian" to the China Space Agency, so that the protagonist becomes Chinese. As a result, Hollywood studios wanted to preemptively change these characters back.

Is there really a wheel of history, and there is an invisible hand that wants to correct these things that are off track?

"Mr. Harrison, in fact, adapting the script is only one aspect, and what we pay more attention to is whether it can meet our conditions. Lin Han didn't say anything to death, this kind of opportunity is hard to come by.

Jack Harrison nodded, "I understand your concerns, and now we're willing to buy your film adaptation rights for $5 million, as well as game adaptation rights for $2 million." There's no way we're going to be backing down on the global box office share, but you can ask us to put $100 million in the contract with Hollywood's A-list directors and A-list male stars. ”

Lin Han didn't expect Paramount to have such a big appetite and actually wanted to adapt "The Martian" into a game, which was very unexpected. (To be continued.) )
