Chapter 143: Spring Festival Gala
Want copyright? Lin Qi didn't fancy the animation copyright of "Journey to the West" too much, but he still frowned subconsciously. The majority of the profit of animation is actually the periphery, which is very important.
Whether it is toys or clothing, copyright is involved, and CCTV takes away the copyright, which is equivalent to cutting off the income of this piece.
Simply making a cartoon and investing a lot of manpower and material resources, but in the end, the majority of the income was taken away by others, no matter how you listen to this proposal, it is unreliable! As for Feng Shikuan's statement that he would give a little more money, Lin Qi took it as a joke.
How much can you give for cartoons? Even if you give the highest price in the industry, for WhatsMiner Animation, it is more than worth the loss, and it is better to open a team to do a CCTV project, it is better to start a new project by yourself.
The key is that there is no need for Shenma Animation to cooperate with CCTV, can't I do it myself?
Unless CCTV can offer conditions that Lin Qi can't refuse, so Lin Qi doesn't speak, just waiting for Feng Shikuan to open the conditions.
Seeing that Lin Qi didn't speak, Feng Shikuan knew that things were difficult, and before he came, Feng Shikuan knew that it was a chore. Now who doesn't know that WhatsMiner Animation is very profitable, why should people share benefits with you.
"Brother, do you have any requirements, you can mention them!" Feng Shikuan looked at Lin Qi and said with a smile, which was equivalent to kicking the ball to Lin Qi.
The old fox scolded in his heart, but the smile on Lin Qi's face remained unchanged at all, and he said with a smile: "Brother Feng, let's not be sloppy with each other, I won't do this thing, Shenma Animation doesn't have enough manpower!"
"WhatsMiner Animation has just started, and there are few people, so there is no way to undertake such a big project!"
Listening to Lin Qi's words, Feng Shikuan also scolded in his heart: "Little fox!"
Dong Weiwei watched the two of them fighting wits over there, shook her head, and said helplessly: "Director Feng, my grandfather asked you to come to Lin Qi, obviously to do a good job in this matter and pave the way for the later TV series." ”
"But you're a bit too much, it's not a problem for you to find an animation team, there's no need to stare at Shenma Animation. ”
"Now there are a lot of animation companies in the circle, and those who are willing to cooperate with CCTV can reach out and grab a lot of them, so why bother with Lin Qi. Dong Weiwei can't do anything about her grandfather, but she is not so polite to Feng Shikuan.
Grandpa is old, and his old subordinates begged, so he was embarrassed not to speak, but Dong Weiwei was embarrassed to speak.
Feng Shikuan smiled bitterly, he knew that it was impossible for Lin Qi and Dong Weiwei to agree to this condition, if they could agree, then something would be wrong.
"Let's forget about this matter, we can make it, and we can sell the broadcast rights to CCTV at one time, but other copyrights will not work!" Lin Qi thought about it and said directly.
Seeing that Feng Shikuan was still going to speak, Lin Qi interrupted him and said: "This is my final bottom line, otherwise we will do it ourselves, and there is no need to be involved in CCTV!"
"Okay, okay!" Feng Shikuan nodded, and said a little helplessly: "I will discuss this matter with the above, and I will give you an answer when the time comes!
Dong Weiwei was stunned for a moment, how could she still involve herself? Glancing at Lin Qi and then at Feng Shikuan, Dong Weiwei asked, "What's the matter?"
"That's the case, I have a producer over there for the Spring Festival Gala, Zhu Yuanping, the director of this year's Spring Festival Gala, should also know, he wants me to ask you, are you interested in going to the Spring Festival Gala?
It's a good thing, Lin Qi and Dong Weiwei didn't expect it, but it wasn't very unexpected.
Dong Weiwei is on fire now, she just won the Golden Melody Awards' three gold cups a year, and the album is a big hit, it can be said that it is the time when the sun is in full swing, plus the popularity bonus brought by the movie, it is not surprising that Lin Qi was invited to the Spring Festival Gala.
Unlike last year's situation, this year's Dong Weiwei is definitely hot.
Basically, all the TV stations that held the New Year's Eve song party sent invitations, and the appearance fees were higher than the other, and Dong Weiwei's itinerary at the end of the year must be very crowded.
If it was another invitation, Dong Weiwei would not consider it, but the Spring Festival Gala is still a little attractive to Dong Weiwei. After thinking about it, Dong Weiwei said to Feng Shikuan: "No problem, I will ask the company to arrange the time in a few days!"
"That's good!" Feng Shikuan looked at Lin Qi with a smile: "Do you want to be together, it's best for the husband and wife to have a chorus!"
Lin Qi waved his hand directly, he was not interested, he didn't care about Dong Weiwei's eyes, Lin Qi said directly: "I'll forget it, this year's work schedule is full, and I really don't have time to toss the Spring Festival Gala anymore!"
"That's really a pity!" Feng Shikuan said with a pity on his face, but this is a pity or a pity, then only Feng Shikuan himself knows.
"By the way, there is another small matter!" Feng Shikuan looked at Lin Qi and said, "This matter is not so much Weiwei's matter, but your bedtime, brother." ”
"Director Zhu Yuanping hopes that Weiwei can sing a new song, and it is in line with the New Year's atmosphere!" Feng Shikuan patted Lin Qi on the shoulder and said with a smile: "It may not be easy for others, but for you, brother, it should be very simple, right?"
"Simple?" Lin Qi didn't think so, pondered for a while, and nodded: "Don't worry, there is no problem with this!"
The three of them finished talking about business and began to eat, because they were familiar enough, there was no such thing as not having enough to eat. The restaurant Feng Shikuan chose was very good, the taste was very good, and the three of them were a feast.
Taking advantage of the night, Lin Qi and Dong Weiwei walked all the way back.
Holding Lin Qi's arm, Dong Weiwei said with a smile: "It's good to walk like this, the last time we walked together was when "Thirty-three Days of Broken Love" was released!"
"Yes!" Lin Qi nodded: "Then it was secretly taken by the reporter, but I look at you in that set of photos, you seem to have made a photo album, where did you put it?"
"Of course it's treasured!" Dong Weiwei said with a smile: "No one will follow today, right? If it hadn't been secretly photographed, we wouldn't have been husband and wife, I really didn't expect to get to this point!"
"Then should I thank that paparazzi for marrying such a beautiful wife?" Lin Qi looked at Dong Weiwei with a smile and reached out to pinch her nose.
"I hate it!" knocked off Lin Qi's hand, Dong Weiwei said with a smile: "I have also thought before, what kind of person will I marry in the future?" I have thought about peers, rich businessmen, and all kinds of people, but I never thought that I would marry someone younger than me!"
"Actually, it's a good deal for you to marry me, you look at my identity, a lot, what a rich businessman, what a director, what a creator, etc., how good!" Lin Qi said with a smile.
