Zhang Fan waved his hand and apologized, but the strange smile on his face couldn't be contained. This left Fletcher and Donn looking at each other, completely unsure of what was going on.

'cough~cough~' Li Ruhui on the side really couldn't stand it, this was a serious business negotiation and it was still negotiating with super crocodiles like ABC and Disney. Zhang Fan couldn't continue laughing like this.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Raising his hand and rubbing his face vigorously, Zhang Fan finally recovered, "There is definitely no problem in selling copyrights, as long as the conditions are right." The copyright of who can become a millionaire is not for sale. ”

Professional business negotiations are done by professionals. Review regulations, negotiate details, and more. It takes a lot of people to work together and it takes a long time. The larger the amount of money involved, the longer it will take, especially if it is a cross-border negotiation.

Before this kind of professional negotiation takes place, it is the two parties or those who can make the decision that set the tone of the matter. For example, whether we can cooperate, how much money is needed, how many conditions, how much time, etc. This is followed by formal professional negotiations.

It's like a scene in a TV series where you just take a contract and ask someone to say a few words, and then sign it directly, even if the negotiation is completed, it's actually impossible at all.

Today, Fletcher and Don came over to settle this matter with Zhang Fan first, and then it was the work of professionals. All kinds of contract texts, laws and regulations and so on have to be done by professional lawyers. After the contract is issued, the two parties will hold a signing ceremony to be considered officially completed and have legal effect.

This is also the reason why Fletcher, as the president of the giant Disney in Greater China, accompanied Donn to meet Zhang Fan.

Because Fletcher has been in Asia for a long time, he knows that Chinese people pay attention to face. Coming in person in his own capacity helped Zhang Fan agree to the transfer of copyright. Now after hearing Zhang Fan's exact response, Fletcher smiled and nodded. The next thing is Donn's job.

"Excuse me, Mr. Zhang. What is the approximate price of the copyright of this Who Can Become a Millionaire show?" "Americans have always been straightforward in negotiations, and since Zhang Fan is willing to sell the copyright, Tang En has no politeness and asks the price directly.

In fact, Don is the CEO of ABC TV in charge of variety shows. After he learned that there was an extremely popular quiz show in Huaxia, he watched a few episodes curiously. I didn't expect to be instantly attracted to it. Donne, who is extremely capable of work, soon understands that this seemingly simple show contains unimaginably huge benefits.

Don immediately sent someone to check the copyright of this show, if it is not registered or registered all over the world, then ABC will make the same show as quickly as possible and then register the copyright. Not to mention winning a super high-rated program for nothing, you can also ask Zhang Fan's program for copyright fees when the time comes!

It's just that Zhang Fan has already thought of the things that Tang En can think of. Americans, or people from developed countries in the West, are not less likely to do this kind of thing. The VCD of that year is a living example. Unless Zhang Fan is stupid, he will leave the Americans with a chance to exploit loopholes.

Zhang Fan really didn't leave anyone a chance to exploit the loopholes. After some investigation, Tang En found out that Zhang Fan not only registered the copyright of the Who Can Become a Millionaire show all over the world, but even registered all the types that can play the side ball. Done, who played with this hand, was helpless. After asking the legal department for their opinion, he could only fly across the Pacific Ocean to discuss the purchase of copyright with Zhang Fan.

After suffering so many losses and being on so many occasions. The Chinese have long seen through these tricks of the Westerners. Zhang Fan knew what kind of popular scene his show would have, so he did not hesitate to spend a huge amount of money to register the copyright worldwide. In order to be able to come in handy at critical moments.

"How much?" Zhang Fan thought to himself, this is really hard to say.

ABC used this show to earn nearly a billion US dollars, how much should Zhang Fan sell if he sells it to them?

The living room was quiet, and everyone's eyes were looking at Zhang Fan, who lowered his eyelids slightly, waiting for his decision.

If you shout a billion dollars directly, the people at ABC will probably leave on the spot. At this time, no one would have believed that the show would make a billion dollars. If Zhang Fan said this, he would inevitably be treated as a psychopath.

Not to mention a billion, even if it is 500 million, 300 million or even 100 million dollars, ABC will not agree. Because this show has not yet proven its worth. Although this show is very popular in China, in the eyes of Westerners, everything is based on the Western world. They will never admit it until they succeed in the Western world.

and wants to spend hundreds of millions of dollars to buy the copyright of a program that has not yet proven itself. If Don dared to submit this request to the board, he would have to pack up and leave the next day.

If you can't sell it at a price, then you won't sell it?

Zhang Fan shook his head. Overseas copyrights are all about profit. What do you do if you don't sell it? Wait for the copyright to expire and be cheap for others? But now you can't buy the price, what should I do?

The atmosphere in the reception room was a little strange, everyone was looking at Zhang Fan frowning for a while, gritting their teeth and not knowing what they were thinking.

When the tea was cold, Li Ruhui finally couldn't help coughing a few times again, and finally let Zhang Fan come back to his senses.

"I can pay for the copyright for free. Zhang Fan's words instantly made Li Ruhui's original fake cough come true, and she coughed non-stop. Zhang Fan hurriedly got up and patted her on the back.

took the tea handed by Zhang Fan and drank a big sip to regain his breath, and Li Ruhui, who was flushed, glared at Zhang Fan. She also thought that Zhang Fan had begun to worship foreign flattery when she saw a big company like Disney coming to her, and she actually gave away the copyright for free? !

Compared with Li Ruhui, Fletcher and Tang En, who have been fighting in the business sea all year round, have solemn faces.

They didn't expect Zhang Fan to say that he could give the copyright for free?!

If this is true, then Zhang Fan is either a big fool, or he has other requirements.

If Zhang Fan was a fool, he would not have achieved what he is today, let alone spend a huge amount of money to register copyrights around the world. The only explanation is that Zhang Fan wanted something else.

Sure enough, Zhang Fan quickly put forward his own requirements: "ABC is the largest TV station in the United States, and Disney is a Hollywood giant." I want to work with you. ”

"Cooperation?" Fletcher suppressed the thoughts in his heart, but his expression was still with a smile, "How does Mr. Zhang want to cooperate?"

In fact, at this time, Fletcher's heart was already sneering. He knew that Zhang Fan now had a net worth of hundreds of millions. is also a small local tyrant in Huaxia. But in front of Disney, or even in front of ABC. Such a small amount of money is not worth mentioning at all!

Is this young man in front of him carried away by success? Thinking that he wants to cooperate with Disney with the copyright of the program in his hand? Cooperation also requires strength, and only those with the same real strength can be called cooperation. If you don't have enough strength but your heart is higher than the sky, you can only do it yourself!

Disney, one of Hollywood's supergiants. A giant conglomerate with a market capitalization of tens of billions of dollars. Zhang Fan's SC company is completely small in front of Disney. People may not even have the idea of looking down.

Today, as the president of Greater China, Fletcher is here in person just to support Dean. I never thought of cooperating with Zhang Fan.

Zhang Fan is certainly not a fool, and he also knows what kind of giant Disney is. Now the strength in his own hands to cooperate with Disney is simply self-inflicted. That's not what he wanted.

"I remember that Disney and Universal Music have cooperated?" Zhang Fan's words made Fletcher slightly stunned, and then nodded, "Yes, all the music works of Disney are co-published by Universal Music Group. ”

Fletcher thought that Zhang Fan would not want to get into a relationship with Universal Music through Disney, right? If this matter is exchanged for the copyright of the show, it is not impossible to negotiate.

"I want Disney to help connect with Universal Music, and I want to enter the music market in the United States. Sure enough, Zhang Fan quickly said his thoughts, "I will talk to them in detail about how to cooperate with Universal Music." ”

"There's no problem with that. Fletcher nodded in response.

Just to help contact, and then Zhang Fan went to negotiate with Universal Music by himself. This is just a gesture for Disney. It's not much help or cooperation.

Fletcher knew that Zhang Fan was an excellent singer who had sold millions of albums in China. However, it is not easy for Chinese singers to open up the situation in the American market. It can even be said that there has never been an Asian who has been able to succeed in the American music market.

The United States is the world's largest music market, with an annual output of more than $5 billion including digital media sales, and Japan is in second place, with an annual music market of nearly $4 billion.

The only reason why the music market in these two countries is so large is that the two countries are tied for the first place in the world for the importance of copyright. If everyone is going to buy genuine copies, the market will naturally prosper. If there is no piracy in China, the market size is even larger than that of the United States and Japan combined.

Zhang Fan had already managed Fuji TV and successfully obtained access to the Japanese market. Now, if Disney wins access to the U.S. market, he has a pass to the two largest music markets in the world. It's something that countless other musicians dream of.

Of course, having a pass doesn't mean you're going to be successful. Because of cultural differences, it is almost impossible for musicians from other countries to succeed in these two countries. But Zhang Fan is different, he has the huge music resources of the whole world as a backing, and all he needs is the opportunity to enter!

After negotiating this matter, Zhang Fan's gaze turned to Tang En.

Both sides know that an introduction is just an introduction, and it is not worth the copyright of the show. The real requirement still falls on ABC.

"Mr. Donn. Zhang Fan smiled and said in a calm voice, "I want to sign a gambling agreement with ABC." ”
