It turned out that Li Sheng considered at the beginning that Marvel would not sell other hero copyrights.

So he had already thought of his own countermeasures at the beginning.

Since we can't buy it, we can do it in another way, such as cooperation.

For example, this one proposed by Li Sheng at present.

It's not about acquiring ownership and adaptation rights for the character itself, it's just about buying its useful life.

For example, Iron Man, what Li Sheng proposed meant was to buy his thirty-year right to use it.

It means that Li Sheng can use the role of Iron Man casually in the past thirty years, and if others use it, they also need to ask Li Sheng's permission.

However, Li Sheng thought very well, but the reality was cruel.

Stan Li still refused, Li Sheng frowned slightly, this uncle is not easy to fool!

However, Li Sheng could see that they were still moved, especially that Kevin Feige.

Stan Lee saw Kevin Feige's appearance and knew that he was moved, and he didn't agree, but he didn't have the decision-making power, so it was better to directly finalize the deal today.

Stan Lee then spoke, "Lee, it's not like I don't want to sell to you. ”

"It's just that you're a Chinese and don't know much about our American culture. ”

"You might have a hard time understanding that kind of risky heroism!"

"Moreover, thirty years is too long, if you use this character without restrictions in these thirty years, and you stink it, we will lose in the end. ”

Li Sheng thought for a moment, looked at Stan Lee, and he considered it for a moment.

"Your worries are unfounded. ”

"It's not as good as us, Defenders Alliance, I'll buy it directly. ”

"But Iron Man, we can sign a thirty-year term, ten movies, and if I use it ten times in these thirty years, the copyright of the character automatically returns to Marvel. ”

"Or even if I didn't make a single one, then after thirty years, the characters will automatically return to Marvel. ”

"Do you think that's okay?"

"This ......" Stan Lee was also moved this time, a little hesitant.

Li Sheng added another fire at this last moment.

"If I really want to shoot, I can first confirm that my script is not shoddy, and if my script is really problematic, Marvel can also have veto power. ”

When Li Sheng said this, Stan Li waved his hand, "This is not necessary." ”

Li Sheng was stunned, what does this old man mean?

"Cinema is the same as comics, and as a director and screenwriter, he needs to be creative and imaginative. ”

"Now the people in those companies are businessmen, they don't understand this, they only see profits. ”

"This clause is prone to disagreement. ”

"So be it, the copyright of the Defenders Alliance, the copyright of the Iron Man Thirty Years and Ten Plays, I agreed. ”

"The rest, Kevin handed it over to you. ”

The old man lost so many words, and then got up and left, apparently quite disappointed in Kevin Feige and the others.

Kevin Feige saw that Stan Lee agreed, and was immediately overjoyed, "Mr. Lee, this Stan Lee agreed, and I have to go back to convince other company executives." ”

"But it's not a big problem, and hopefully we can work together successfully. ”

Li Sheng smiled and nodded, "I understand." ”

"I wish us a successful cooperation!"

Kevin Feige left in a hurry, in a hurry to go back and discuss the copyright with the company.

……

After they all left, Li Sheng picked up the wine on the table and took a sip gently.

Yang Mengyuan asked a little puzzled, "Why did you sign such harsh conditions?"

"Although I don't know what these iron men are talking about, but this will definitely not be possible in thirty years and ten plays, and this is not to give them money!"

Li Sheng shook his head, "You'll understand later." ”

Li Sheng's idea is very simple, the actor of Iron Man, Robert Downey Jr., has simply given this character a new soul, and made Iron Man one of the most popular characters in Marvel.

But Robert Downey Jr. is not young, and he only saw Downey in Avengers 3 before Li Sheng's rebirth, and he was already planning to retire at that time.

Is Iron Man still Iron Man without Robert Downey Jr.?

The answer is no.

A classic determines the aesthetics of a generation.

You don't see Batman since Christian, and even Ben Fleck can't save him from the reality of his sinking.

It is not the character itself that determines the value of a character, but the actor.

Iron Man can shoot a few films in thirty years, it doesn't matter, it's okay to shoot Robert Jr. if he doesn't plan to continue filming.

And when the character is still in Li Sheng's hands, Marvel can also use it.

But Li Sheng knew that after Disney acquired Marvel, he began to plan for the Marvel Ultimate Universe.

The ultimate universe is indispensable for the role of Iron Man.

At that time, Disney will definitely find Li Sheng to buy back this role.

Well, if that's the case, the character will bring himself a lot of profit anyway.

Not to mention, the box office of the three Iron Man films together exceeded 21 US dollars.

……

The question now is whether Kevin Feige will be able to convince the owners of the company when he returns.

Although there is no news over there, the funds must be ready.

After Li Sheng and Yang Mengyuan returned to the hotel, Li Sheng called Yu Dong to start collecting funds, and asked Jia Wen to inform Jia Wen to suspend the expansion plan of Bona Cinemas.

……

Three days later, there was news.

Marvel's initial plan is to sell the rights to the Defenders for $50 million, as well as the short-term right to use Iron Man.

This price is still relatively high for Li Sheng.

Business, there are dealings, and he and Kevin Feige have been in contact a few more times.

In the end, 50 million, still 50 million, but two more characters were added to the contract.

One is the right to use Black Widow and the other is Falcon.

Black Widow is quite popular, but the falcon is a leftover.

After Kevin Feige went back to the company to communicate, the matter was decided.

Yu Dong also began to transfer funds from the Chinese side through the bank, although he didn't know why Li Sheng wanted so much money all of a sudden, but the boss, besides, Li Sheng had never fallen into the pit, just blindly believe it, it must be right.
