Chapter 120: Very Silly and Naïve (Ask for the first order, ask for a monthly pass!)
Hou Muyun arrived at the Qiyue Group building at about five o'clock, and he didn't know how long this meeting would be, he was afraid that Fei Ning would be bored and asked him to go back to Huashan Hospital first, but Fei Ning was obviously very interested in Qiyue Group. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Also, I have read books on the Chinese website for more than ten years, and there is no reason not to go in and see when I come here.
"Go ahead, I'll just walk around first, and I'll wait for you in the lobby or in the car. ”
Fei Ning's eyes lit up, and he walked around under the guidance of a staff member.
Not long after, Hou Muyun went to an office of the copyright department and met with the head of the copyright department and the editor-in-chief of Chinese.com.
Sit down after the pleasantries.
The editor-in-chief opened his mouth and said: "Yunhou, the other party will arrive in about a dozen minutes, this is the price and some promises given by the other party at present, you can take a look first." ”
Hou Muyun nodded and took it and looked at it.
Legend Century Film and Television Media!
This is the name of the buyer's company, and now it is half a star, Hou Muyun naturally knows a little about this name, a very famous film and television media company in the country.
This time, Legendary Century wants to buy the adaptation rights of the TV series and movie of "Xuanyuan Sword Master" at one time, and the package price given is 2.48 million!
Other commitments include that film and television dramas will have the same name as the original work, film and television adaptations will be faithful to the original work, and Hou Muyun or Qiyue can have the power to inspect and supervise the production process.......
The director of the copyright department seemed to see some of Hou Muyun's doubts, so he said: "Yunhou, you may not know much about film and television copyrights, generally speaking, it is difficult to sell the film and television copyrights of male frequency novels in online texts, and they are relatively cheaper than the copyrights of female frequency." As for the reason, I don't need to say more. ”
"In recent years, due to the IP fire, the price of novel adaptation copyright has also risen a lot, for example, the recent fire of Miyue, He Yi, Hua Qiangu, etc., the highest adaptation copyright authorization fee has reached 2 million! Legend Century can give a film and television adaptation package price of 2.48 million, which is definitely not a low price. And!"
The director paused and continued: "For authors, film and television adaptation licensing fees are never a big head. What is the big head? It is the physical book sales driven by the launch of film and television dramas! It is also the sale of game copyrights after the launch of film and television dramas, which is why we have not sold game copyrights. ”
The editor-in-chief took over and said, "To be honest, Legendary Century is not the highest bidder so far, but it is the most suitable film and television company. You should know a little about the company, focusing on the young market, and has also produced and released many film and television dramas adapted from novels. The positioning of each production is a big star, a big production, a big pattern, high popularity, excellent production and has an excellent cooperative relationship with major TV stations and video websites. This has a great influence and effect on the physical sales and game copyrights after the film and television drama is launched!"
Hou Muyun knew that what the supervisor and the editor-in-chief said was true, and fell silent.
Hou Muyun has some understanding of the copyright of film and television adaptations, and knows that the price of male frequency novels in this regard is generally not sellable, 2.4 million, which is not low.
He also knows that the copyright of male frequency novels can really buy game copyrights, especially fantasy novels, and the copyright of several top fantasy novels on the Chinese Internet has already exceeded tens of millions or even tens of millions, far exceeding the copyright of film and television adaptations!
Now the game copyright of "Xuanyuan Sword Master", Hou Muyun heard the editor-in-chief mention it earlier, and the highest price has reached 8 million, but neither Qiyue nor Hou Muyun agreed. Hou Muyun waited for the book to be finished, and Qiyue naturally had to wait for a higher price, and they also believed that they could sell it at a higher price.
The adaptation of film and television dramas can make "Xuanyuan Sword Master" more famous, and it can undoubtedly make the game copyright higher!
Ten minutes later, the vice president of the legendary century arrived.
Next, there was an hour and a half of negotiation, and the final result was not negotiated for the time being!
After seeing off the people of the legendary century, the director and the editor-in-chief returned to the conference room, both of them very helpless.
"Yunhou, why do you have to have any final review rights? It will definitely not be given to us!"
"I know that Legend Century does have a lot of deeds in the adaptation of novels into film and television dramas! However, you must know that film and television drama adaptations and original novels must not be exactly the same!
"I understand that you want the final review right in order to be able to make the film and television drama more beautiful and more faithful to the original work! But you must know that the final review right is equivalent to a veto power, do you think the film and television company may give it to you? Even if you only need the right to review the script, it is impossible!"
"As for the legendary century, it likes to use small fresh meat actors, it's not because of the market! But this market is like this, with acting skills and good looks, too many people choose the latter! There are special effects or something, almost all of them are like this in China, there is no way!"
"Yunhou, we are selling film and television adaptation rights, not filming film and television dramas, it is impossible to be able to master everything! The film and television dramas produced by the legendary century will be more or less flawed and controversial, but there is no objection to the fact that most of them are popular, and they have a great effect on physical sales and game copyrights. ”
"Besides, when the film and television drama comes out, even if someone scolds us, it won't scold us!"
"Moreover, no matter who you sell the copyright of the film and television adaptation to, you will have a series of worries you just had!"
"As for you writing the script, it's even more unlikely, they definitely have to adapt the script according to their position in the market, and maybe even change the script during filming. If you were asked to write it, according to what you said, you would be in the group, and that would be no different from the right to review. They won't accept such a passive request!"
"The point is that they don't think that if they can write a good novel, they can write a good screenplay!"
“…….”
Both of them are practitioners of fiction, how can they not know the author's helplessness, but this world is like this, when the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, how helpless it is.
"I understand both the truth, and I know that my thoughts are stupid and naïve, but those are the words I want to say, and the attitude I want to express!"
Hou Muyun grinned after the two of them talked bitterly for a long time: "Moreover, I have more stupid and naïve ideas. ”
The two looked at each other suspiciously.
Hou Muyun looked serious: "The film and television adaptation rights of "Xuanyuan Sword Master", I want to buy it myself!"
The two of them were dumbfounded.
Director: "Yunhou! Although the copyright is in the hands of the company, you have a high percentage of the share! If you want it, even if the company licenses it to you for free, it's no problem! We know that you don't care about the money, and the company doesn't care either! But the key to the problem is that the film and television copyright is to increase the popularity of your book, and it is for the future physical copyright and game copyright, that is the point!"
Editor-in-chief: "Yes, Yunhou, I know you are a willful person, but in this matter, you can't be willful!"
Hou Muyun: "Two bosses, I am not willful, and I am not going to ask for this authorization right away. We can make a VAM first!"
