Chapter Seventy-Five: Greed

It was destined to be a difficult negotiation, and the saliva was dry, and after several cups of coffee, it was not negotiated.

In the final analysis, it is still a matter of interests, Yang Huan is too greedy, knowing the future achievements of "Jurassic Park". Even if it is not made into a movie, the results must be outstanding, so naturally I don't want to sell it cheaply. Even if Penguin Publishing has another promise, how is it possible to let Yang Huan make profits casually. Any percentage point could be a million dollars, and such a large profit has to be fought for no matter what.

And Penguin is also too greedy, from Britain to Europe, and later to the North American market, it is obviously stupid to put all your eggs in one basket.

The so-called promises of Penguin Publishing cannot be completely trusted, and the promises of businessmen should not be believed as long as they are not contracts. Even if it's a contract, there are still countless loopholes to look for. Westerners are the most skilled in this area.

There were several stalemates in the negotiations, but He Haiyuan eased the atmosphere.

In the evening, the two sides turned on each other again, and Thomas Monroe and his assistant were so angry that they rushed out of the door.

He Haiyuan sat on the chair a little weakly, looked at Yang Huan who didn't care, and sighed; "Ah Huan, there are very few opportunities to be translated into other languages. In today's Xiangjiang, few have such an opportunity. You have to take advantage of it, if you want to make a small profit, you will lose. ”

"Uncle He, one percentage point is not a small number, of course I can't let it go."

"This is just your first book, and the key is to build a good relationship and open up channels."

Yang Huan shook his head, He Haiyuan's words were indeed good. But the essence of the world of capital has never been human relations, but interests. As long as there is interest, the channel provider will naturally come to the door at that time.

If you can, try to fight for it, and if you can't, you can just give in when the time comes.

And this kind of negotiation is also an attitude, take your time, anyway, there are already publishing houses coming to the door, then other publishing houses will definitely hear some news, and they will also go to learn about "Jurassic Park". The longer you drag it on, the better it will be for you, so why not.

Of course, this is because the quality of the novel must be high enough to a certain extent, and if it is replaced by an ordinary novel, it will naturally not be treated like this.

"Don't worry, since Penguin Press has found it, it must be hoping to get the publishing rights of the novel. If we have a high profile, it will be easier for us to pry open the doors of these publishing houses. ”

He Haiyuan shook his head, in his opinion, "Jurassic Park" is very good, but it is not to the point where you have to watch it. Nowadays, the most important thing is to open the market, and everything else is trivial.

However, Yang Huan can open a company and calmly face tens of millions of funds, which is enough to show his maturity. Such a person with his own ideas, he is not good at forcing anything. I was more emotional, and when I had dinner with Zhang Ruocheng many times, I felt that Yang Qihan had given birth to a good son.

"It's not too early, so I'll go first. You have a good grasp of it, if you really can't talk about it, it's nothing to suffer a loss. ”

"Well, thank you Uncle He, why don't you have a meal together, and thank you for being my nephew."

Facing Yang Huan's hippie smiling face at the moment, He Haiyuan shook his head speechlessly; "Your kid has done a little business, and he has learned to be like your father, so don't come."

Yang Huan suddenly became dissatisfied: "Uncle He, how can you say that about me." I really appreciate your help, and I really want to thank you. ”

"Okay, I'm your uncle, I won't help anyone you help." Speaking of this, He Haiyuan patted Yang Huan's shoulder, "Don't think too much, work hard, and I will be more proud when the time comes." ”

"Well, Uncle He, don't worry, I won't let you down."

He Haiyuan left, Yang Huan sat down, drank coffee silently, and the whole person fell into deep thought.

The arrival of Penguin Press will definitely attract the attention of other publishing houses, and with the brewing of the novel, I believe that other publishing houses will come to the door in the future.

Although it is difficult, it is not impossible. But he prefers the cooperation of Penguin Press, after all, people have promised him, even if the promise is not valuable, and even if he says it, he may forget it. But this is a path of contact, and we have to fight for it anyway. In his heart, novels are just to monopolize copyrights, and what he really values is movies.

"Strive to make a classic, use this film to pry open the door to the European and American box office markets, with such a foundation, the development of the company will be much easier in the future."

muttering to himself, the movie he had prepared before seemed to be a little out of place again. After all, Taigang has been filmed, and there are too many traces in it, and foreign fans may not be able to understand the plot.

"In fact, the movies that are least restricted by geography are the movies with the simplest plots. Hollywood blockbusters are popular because the plot is straightforward and simple, just one line, and the others are filled with small details, but they can make people enjoy watching. ”

I can't help but think of American comic movies, and those hot ones in my heart. I can't wait to buy the Marvel Comics right away, and the superheroes in it can shoot as much as they want.

However, these are all American, and if you shoot too much, it is just for others to do publicity, and it is also troublesome to change to Chinese, and it will definitely not achieve the effect, and it may also have the effect of painting a tiger and not becoming an anti-dog.

For some reason, a movie with an average box office but extremely forward-thinking suddenly appeared in my mind, but it was quickly rejected again. After all, many of them are too stingy, and if they want to make a blockbuster, they have to have special effects, but this is not something he can play with now.

I couldn't help but sigh and feel confused. There are too many movies to choose from, but I am dazzled, which really doesn't know what to say.

"Yang Sheng, long time no see."

Just then, a familiar voice rang out. Yang Huan raised his head and saw Xu Ke looking at him with a smile.

"It turned out to be Director Xu, it's been a long time, sit down."

Xu Ke nodded, and after sitting down, he looked at Yang Huan eagerly: "Yang Sheng is really amazing, your company has made two movies in a row, and the box office is amazing." ”

"Director Xu has won the award, and this is all due to Wang Jing."

I was thinking about it before, and I didn't even notice that the table was cleaned up. Fortunately, I quickly got used to two cups of coffee and some snacks again.

"Yang Sheng is too modest, and our film studio will need Yang Sheng's support in the future."

Yang Huan was slightly stunned, and the smile on his face was even worse: "Director Xu has always been a director I admire very much, if your studio needs to invest, just ask." ”

Xu Ke is not only a director, but also a businessman, and his favorite thing is to find someone to invest in making movies and make money. If you want to invest in his movies, you have to watch them carefully, and you have to pay more attention to copyright, but don't just make a wedding dress for him at that time.

"Yang Sheng is really bold, thank you."

"Yes, it's my honor to invest in Director Xu's film."
