"Yes, sir. I recognized you as soon as you took off your hat. ”

It's no wonder that this young man was a little strangely excited when he brought himself coffee just now. He often appears on TV and newspapers, and it is normal for him to recognize him.

"Ok, let me talk about my opinion, if there is anything you don't like, please Luo", Sun Ziming looked at the cover of his eyes and continued, "Miss Joann Rowling, don't mind. ”

Now J.K. Rowling is at the lowest point in her life, and she has to fund her sister even for the minimum food and clothing, and suddenly meets a world-class director like Sun Ziming, her face is flushed, and she can't finish her words, "You just say it." ”

"Well, to be clear in advance, I'm not a publisher and don't understand the market for children's literature. I just thought, this novel is very good, and I want to pay for a copy of your manuscript to give to my daughter as a New Year's gift. ”

J.K. Rowling didn't know the value of her work at all, and she was very happy to be appreciated by the big people, and hurriedly said, "No problem, I can give it to your daughter as a gift."

After speaking, Rowling said shyly: "Sir, but you have to pay for the photocopying, and I don't have any money." ”

'Wow wow', when Sun Ziming was about to thank him, the child in the stroller cried, and Rowling hurriedly apologized to coax her daughter. Seeing the beautiful and cute little girl in Rowling's arms, Sun Ziming suddenly remembered his daughter, and his heart softened from a businessman to a father.

Sun Ziming got up, touched the baby's pink little face with his fingers, and then touched the old clothes on her body, sighed in his heart, and discussed: "Rowling, it doesn't matter if adults are bitter, for us, it is not a fortune, but children can't follow us to suffer." Well, bring me your manuscript back to the United States, and I'll try to find someone to see if I can get it published. ”

As a big man, and a legendary big man, most of Sun Ziming's things have made reporters like a gold mine and dug them up. Including a few years ago, he bought the rights to adapt a novel that could not be sold, just to treat a little girl with congenital heart disease.

When Luo Lin heard this, she also thought that Sun Ziming was kind, and she was very disappointed and declined: "Thank you for your kindness, I can still hold on to it now." ”

Sun Ziming couldn't cry or laugh after hearing this, and after the child drank half a bottle of milk, her uncle hugged it aside to play, and then explained: "You misunderstood, Lydia's father's "When Happiness Knocks" is indeed a very good novel, but it has not sold well because it was a gift for his wife and refused to change the ending. Although I don't understand children's literature, I still think your novel is very good, and it should sell well. ”

Yes? Rowling, who was in embarrassment, was so excited by the sudden luck that she couldn't speak, and said with a red face: "Sir, do you really think it's very good?" ”

"Well, if I just sympathize with you and the child, I can fund you a sum of money, and it doesn't take so much trouble."

‘Yeah!’ Rowling screamed, and the few customers in the café looked at her in surprise. The single mother was a regular visitor to the place, ordering very few things, but sitting for hours at a time. If it weren't for the fact that the owner's partner was her brother-in-law, it would have made people say strange things. After inquiring about what was going on, the guests all looked at Sun Ziming in amazement, and the music in the café was turned off.

This is a real big man, not only a world-class director, but also a world-class super-rich!

After Rowling blushed and quieted down, Sun Ziming smiled and said, "Let's talk about cooperation, OK?" ”

Yes? Everyone pricked up their ears, and Rowling's hands began to tremble with excitement, and she replied repeatedly, "OOk"

Seeing that her sister was so excited, her brother-in-law hurriedly called a guest who was drinking coffee to come over and apologize: "Sir, this is my friend John, he is a graduate student of the Faculty of Law of the University of Edinburgh, and he has a lawyer's license. Is it okay to let him talk to you instead of my sister? ”

That's no problem, the house in England, the salary in the United States, this is not a joke, their own conditions are enough to impress them. Rowling next to her also nodded hurriedly, she already felt that her mind was blank, and someone was the best to help her.

"Ok, you've watched Jurassic Park, right? I bought the rights to the film adaptation of it at the time, and it cost two million dollars. ”

God, not only did Rowling close her mouth, but the other guests' eyes widened wider than cowbells. God, that single mother is going to be rich, going to be a millionaire!

"I read your novel and already have the conditions to adapt it into a movie. If you agree, I'd like to buy the rights to the film adaptation of your novel with reference to the treatment of "Jurassic Park". Of course, this novel is far from finished, so I ask that future novels also acquire the adaptation rights according to this treatment. You can only sell the adaptation rights to a third party if I give it up. ”

Rowling and her brother-in-law had lost their ability to think, and John, who had come to help temporarily, swallowed his saliva and said with difficulty: "Sir, are you sure it's two million dollars?" ”

"yes, do you have any questions?"

"No", John, who still had pimples on his face, as if he was afraid that Sun Ziming would regret it, got up and rushed to his seat, took out two fixed agreements from his briefcase, filled them in and quickly checked the numbers again, and then ran back to the table, and said excitedly: "Sir, you signed this agreement, and the right to adapt Rowling's novel and film is yours!" ”

Sun Ziming glanced at the agreement, looked at Rowling, who was in a sluggish state, and said with a smile: "Rowling, you have to look at the agreement to see if there are any other requirements?" ”

"Ok", Rowling, who had come to her senses a little, took the agreement excitedly and hurriedly glanced at it. God, that's two million dollars, Rowling's head shook like a rattle, her red hair scattered like a red cloth fluttering in the spring breeze, and she said in a loud voice, "No, I'm satisfied." ”

Only then did Sun Ziming pick up the agreement, took the pen and added the box office share behind the subject matter, and reminded John: "John, my film company is different from other companies, it will give the screenwriter 1% of the box office share, and you have to redraft two copies." ”

"Thank you for the reminder, I'll revise it immediately", this time John was much more steady, took out two copies of the final agreement and filled it out, and then attached Sun Ziming's supplementary terms to the back, and then handed it over to the two of them to sign.

Sun Ziming didn't take John's pen, took out a beautiful black MontBlanc gold pen from his coat pocket, signed the two agreements, handed it to the red-faced Rowling, and encouraged: "Rowling, this is a gift from Stephen King and I after he won the Oscar for Best Screenplay. Now, I give it to you, and I hope that in a few years, you will be as great as he is! ”

"Think, you", Rowling recovered a little normal, quickly got up and took it with both hands, and wanted to bow to Sun Ziming.

You're J.K. Rowling! You're actually bowing to me, what's the joke? Sun Ziming hurriedly got up and supported Rowling, who was about to bend over, "Rowling, you don't have to thank me, you have this talent to get help from others." The strong save themselves, and the saints cross people. This is a motto that a pastor gave me when I was in prison, and it applies to you as well. ”

When Rowling, who believes in God, heard this, she remembered the embarrassing life of the past few years, the cold eyes of others, and then looked at the agreement on the table that could make a great difference in her life, and a burst of warmth welled up in her heart, and she couldn't help but burst into tears.

After a few words of comfort, Sun Ziming took out the check book from his coat, used John's pen, signed a check for two million US dollars and handed it over, and Rowling, who was still wiping her tears, hurriedly looked at John.

"Sir, by law, you only need to pay a small deposit. Wait until Ms. Rowling agrees to your script before you need to pay the balance. ”

Sun Ziming shook his head, looked at the child who was rushing at him, and smiled: "With current technology, it is not possible to make such a movie, and when our script comes out, I am afraid it will be ten years later." Rowling, great work is finely crafted, and your novel needs to be seriously revised, which also takes time. This money can improve your life and that of your children, for the sake of your children, accept it. ”

'Papa', Sun Ziming's words made the guests in the café applaud.

"Thank you", Rowling thanked again, which reminded Sun Ziming of something, and hurriedly found the address book from his coat pocket.

"Brian, Brian, found it", Sun Ziming picked up the pen again and copied Brian and his phone number to Rowling, laughing at himself: "Rowling, as the owner of a film company, I hate agents the most, but as a writer like you, they will maximize their fair interests for you." This is the phone number of Brian, the general manager of UTN brokerage, who turned out to be my subordinate, and he is a very good person. If you have time, take a trip to the United States, call Brian, and he will arrange a meal for you. Of course, you can also call me, and if I don't have time, I'll ask an assistant to arrange it for you. ”

People who have endured hardships are more determined in their minds than ordinary people, and those who have received help from others also know how to be grateful. Rowling took the phone number and thanked her grandson for her friend, who rarely saw her brother-in-law's friend, and John also helped her a lot.

As a lawyer, John knew something about this industry too well, and hurriedly said: "Rowling, what he said is right, I'm just a little lawyer in Edinburgh, and I can't help you so much." Besides, if you become a great writer, that agreement alone will keep me from having to work for the rest of my life. ”

That's right, 5% of the lawyer's agency fee, and he can draw 100,000 of the 2 million that Rowling just received. There will be a few more novels in the future, and this lucky person will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of his life by helping Rowling for a few minutes!

Sun Ziming, who has done a good job, is also very happy that he bought the adaptation rights of Rowling's novels, which is enough for Light and Shadow Company to be the best film company in Hollywood for 20 years.

Just as Sun Ziming was about to invite everyone to coffee, Lu Huiguang, who had been waiting in the car outside, suddenly rushed in, ran to Sun Ziming in a hurry, and said loudly: "Brother Ming, something is wrong!" ……”

What the? Sun Ziming's mind was empty, he only felt that his ears were buzzing, and he didn't know what they were talking about for a long time, so he pushed away the people next to him and rushed outside, suddenly his eyes were dark, and he staggered and fell to the ground, not knowing anything. After Sun Tzu woke up, he was like a wooden man, and let Lu Huiguang carry him on the plane, get off the plane, transfer, get in the car, and get off the car. When the group arrived at the hometown where the snow was also falling, Sun Ziming seemed to be a little sober, pushed away the eldest brother who came to help, and staggered towards the mourning hall.

Looking at the two beautiful statues in the mourning hall, Sun Ziming looked at Juanzi and Jiaming, who were smiling at him, he couldn't make any expressions, and it was impossible to even cry.

There was only one thing that was free, and it flowed from his eyes, ran down his unconscious cheeks, and dripped onto the marble tiles. At that moment, he clearly knew that he had lost them forever......
