When Meng Qi decided to invite the two of them to meet and talk at the same time, he had already expected this situation to happen, and now looking at the subtle expressions on the faces of the two, he could guess what they thought in their hearts, besides, at such a cheap price, everyone wants to take it, right?

Therefore, Meng Qi was not worried, but waited for a long time.

"I have a question. Will Benjamin finally couldn't help himself and asked.

"Speak, Mr. Benjamin. ”

"If we buy the rights to the animation adaptation of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, you start to keep pumping water and dragging the plot, stretching the storyline indefinitely, wouldn't we have to pay more copyright fees?"

Bob also looked at Meng Qi with burning eyes, obviously very concerned about this issue.

"You're overthinking, Mr. Benjamin. Meng Qi still had a confident smile on his face, "The adaptation rights of "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" are charged according to the number of episodes, as long as you don't change the main plot, don't add original plots and original characters, even if it's only one season or even 10 episodes, I don't bother anymore, you just need to pay me the copyright fee of $50,000 per episode." It's up to you to take the initiative, aren't you?"

"You mean, we only need to pay the royalties for the episodes that have already aired?" Bob asked with a look of disbelief after listening to Meng Qi's words, a little surprised.

"That's right, gentlemen. The initiative of the series is in the hands of your TV channel...... I think this greatly reduces your risk......" Meng Qi replied.

Not only is it risk-free, Meng Qi's proposal can be said to be almost completely risk-free.

If the ratings of the "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" animation are too poor, then the TV station can completely abandon the project and no longer buy follow-up comics, firstly, it can reduce the initial investment, use the main funds for animation production, improve the quality of animation, and secondly, even if it is forced to abandon the series, it will minimize the loss.

For Will Benjamin and Bob Turner, this price is no longer the price of cabbage, but someone who has offered to send money to the door!

They may feel that Meng Qi is making a loss-making deal, but in fact, Meng Qi is not a fool, where is the reason to give his hard work to others in vain?

Meng Qi's "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" is mainly based on the 2003 version of the animation, and it is also interspersed with some plots of the 1987 version of the animation, you know, the 1987 version of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles animation has more than 190 episodes, and the 2003 version of the animation also has 156 episodes, after Meng Qi's recreation, to fully show the entire plot of the world's "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles", I'm afraid there are no 200 episodes that can't be done at all.

If the TV station really pays the copyright fee for 50,000 yuan per episode, the money is far more than 5 million, or even tens of millions!

It seems that Meng Qi has suffered a loss, but except for Meng Qi, no one knows how long "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" can be drawn. This is a hole dug by Meng Qi using unequal information.

As for the TV station that won the adaptation rights, they finally knew that "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" was a long story, and I guess they were reluctant to lose it at that time......

"Perhaps, the plagiarism rumors that are now circulating on the Internet may be true? Otherwise, Mr. Frank, why would you sell the rights to the anime adaptation of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles at such a low price?"

Will Benjamin the Fat Man asked a rather tricky question, and it looked like he was questioning Monch, but in fact...... As he said these words, Meng Qi saw a gleam in his eyes.

Sure enough, there is no business and no treachery, so you still want to reduce the price?

Meng Qi sneered in his heart, but his face was very calm: "Both of them are battle-hardened people, can't you tell whether these little tricks on the Internet are true or false?" Countless people are saying that I plagiarized, but no one has taken out an original manuscript or even a set drawing, and there is no evidence worthy of scrutiny, it is all a lie that seems to be true and false...... And if you really think I'm plagiarism, you won't come and meet me, will you?"

Will Benjamin originally saw that Meng Qi was young and wanted to suppress the other party, but he didn't expect Meng Qi to be so calm and spicy, and he couldn't say a word when he spoke.

"If you still don't believe me, you can take a look at my new comics and comment on them......"

As he spoke, Meng Qi took out the stack of manuscripts that Baron Davis, the head of the REDIT forum, had read, and gently placed them in front of the two.

Bob Turner picked up the paper and flipped through it, and Will Benjamin turned his head over and read it together.

A touch of red that moves forward, a touch of red that flutters in the air.

Bob's hands trembled suddenly.

"Oh my God! What the hell did I see! If Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is an unprecedented manga, then this one is a masterpiece that breaks through all imagination!"

Will, as a TV person who has been dealing with manga and animation for many years, of course, also saw the extraordinaryness of this new manga, and the fat on his face trembled with excitement.

"Well, gentlemen, where do you think I should go to copy a comic like this? God or the God of Comics?"

Meng Qi's voice smacked of mockery.

"Bang!"

Bob Turner slammed his hands on the table, then stood up, his eyes wide open, and he almost roared out his words: "We have the Mura Brothers for the animation rights of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, but only if the adaptation rights of this new comic are also given to us!"

"Don't you dream!Moonman!" Will reacted and stood up as well, "This should be NBO stuff, including new comics!"

"No way, dead fat! The Huala brothers will never let epoch-making things slip through their fingers, so you should die!"

The heads of the animation departments of the two major TV stations suddenly tore up, and the style of painting changed too quickly.

Meng Qi also thought about the impact that this new comic might bring, he would have reacted the same way that these two gentlemen who were spraying would have the same reaction as a comic book lover like Baron Davis, but he was wrong, the more professional people should know the value of this new comic.

"I say, gentlemen...... Can you please stop for a moment?" Meng Qi finally spoke, trying to stop the two of them.

Will and Benjamin stopped, first glanced at each other, then let go of each other at the same time, pounced in front of Meng Qi, and said almost in unison: "Mr. Frank, please be sure to give these two comics to our TV station!"

"Of course...... However, before I do that, I have one more small request......"

"Tell me, Mr. Frank, we will do our best if we can do it. Bob immediately agreed, and at this moment, as long as he can win the comic, nothing else matters.

"Don't be fooled by the moonface, Mr. Frank, what they can do, the NBO can do, if not better!"

The corners of Meng Qi's mouth moved slightly, and he smiled.

After laying the groundwork for so long and fighting wits for so long, it's finally time to get to the point.
