XXXXI Film Adaptation Rights
In order to celebrate the perfect result of the beef identification, Su Zhen decided to hold a barbecue at the ranch, inviting all the cowboys from the ranch to participate, and specially asked the cowboys to slaughter a few calves and lambs.
In order to add to the fun, Su Zhen also let the cowboys compete to tie the calves, with Old John as the referee, and the winner can get a week of paid vacation in Hawaii provided by Su Zhen, and can bring a family member, and the housing and transportation are all provided by Su Zhen, the boss. This reward condition has been proposed, which immediately aroused the great enthusiasm of the cowboys, especially those South American cowboys, who are even more excited, after all, for them, this may be the only opportunity in this life, Su Zhen also thought at this time, he has not been to Hawaii to play, so he decided to wait for a while Liu Shihua has a summer vacation, and everyone will go together.
The game was wonderful, so that Su Zhenliu poetry and painting for the first time to see such a wonderful cowboy performance was addicted, the last Jensen and a Rabiot Argentine cowboy stood out, but the result made the old John, the referee, difficult, because the two completed the same perfect, had to try again, but the result made the old John very helpless, the speed of the two is still the same coincidental, the degree of completion is also perfect, the most difficult is Su Zhen came out to solve the siege, announced that the two tied for the first, All qualified for a trip to Hawaii, and also announced that everyone could get such an opportunity if they did a good job. As soon as this decision was announced, it was immediately cheered by the cowboys, who praised the generosity of the boss in their hearts. After that, it's carnival time, where cowboys gather around campfires, play acoustic guitars, sing country songs, and drink and eat meat.
In this way, the matter of beef grade identification is over, and the rest is the sales problem. On this issue, Su Zhen consulted Old John again.
"The sales of beef in the United States are generally in the autumn and winter, Wall Street will make indicators according to the market situation to set the price of beef and mutton, and can not get money immediately, very cumbersome, so generally the beef quality of the ranch will directly sell the beef to the restaurant, eliminating the intermediate links to expand profits, especially the good grade beef, high-end restaurants are the big consumers." Old John explained to Su Zhen.
Oh, I didn't expect that the speculators on Wall Street are really ubiquitous, they have to meddle in any industry, and the sales side is the lifeblood of the breeding industry, and it is not a good thing to be mastered by these vampires, it seems that they can only take the road of high-end restaurants. "But we're a new ranch and have nothing to do with it, so how can we market our beef to restaurants?" Su Zhen was very puzzled by this, although he had nearly thirty years of knowledge in his previous life, he was blank in this regard.
"Ha Luha, BOSS, this just needs to be handed over to the brokerage company, although the brokerage company is also very dark, but it is much better than the vampires on Wall Street" Old John said with a smile.
That's right, Su Zhen suddenly realized that in the money society of the United States, as long as you have money, everything is easy to do. Unlike China, where various intermediary businesses are still starting, brokerage companies in the United States are spread across various industries, and these things do not need to be worried about by themselves.
After thinking about it, he hung up the phone to his personal lawyer Erica and handed it over to her to handle, the hundreds of thousands of dollars he paid to the law firm every year were not spent in vain, and he had to give her something to do.
After being the shopkeeper, Su Zhen began to get bored again, and went on vacation? Liu Shihua's vacation hasn't arrived yet, so you can't just leave her at home alone, right? So Su Zhen had to live a leisurely life again, fortunately, after selling the ranch, Su Zhen was quite self-disciplined, and developed the habit of getting up early every day to clean up horse manure and brush horses for the black and white elves, and then riding a horse, otherwise he would eat and sleep every day, and he would really become a pig when he slept and ate.
As for surfing the internet? Although there is now an Internet, there is no comparison between the current Internet and the Internet in the 21st century, and most of the famous websites in later generations have not yet appeared.
EVEN THE COMPUTER SYSTEM IS STILL IN THE WIN95 STAGE,ALTHOUGH THIS YEAR I DON'T KNOW WHEN THE ROAD SHOULD BE RELEASEDWIN98,BUT FOR A PERSON WHO IS USED TO A VERY PERFECT WIN7 SYSTEM,YOU LET HIM USE WIN98 IT IS ESTIMATED THAT IT IS BETTER TO GIVE HIM A KNIFE.。
Just when Su Zhen was bored, a phone call from Los Angeles made Su Zhen lift his spirits.
"Hello, I'm Su Zhen".
"Hi Boss, I'm Aikman"
"Aikman, what's wrong?"
"Yes, BOSS, I've been approached by several studios recently looking to buy the rights to the film adaptations of Twilight and Tales of the Night, so I called and asked what you mean"
At this time, the "Twilight" tetralogy has been listed, because Su Zhen has only watched five movies (Du Zhiludao's fourth novel Dawn has been made into two parts), and the follow-up novels have not been read, so only four were written and announced to be over. The hot sales of Twilight have brought Su Zhen nearly 100 million in revenue, and in the past six months, nearly 60 million copies have been sold in North America alone, which is far better than the results in the original time and space. Maybe it's due to the fact that the Internet has not been developed in later generations, and everyone is still used to reading physical books, Su Zhen estimated.
And another "Legend of the Night", which is rewritten from the plot of the Legend-of-the Night movie in his impression, has also been published, and the Nightshade has also been written into a four-part series by Su Zhen. There are also two prequels and sequels that are also ready for release, although the results are not as exaggerated as Twilight, but with the popularity accumulated by Twilight, nearly 20 million copies have been sold.
"What kind of companies are there," Su Zhen asked after thinking about it
"Those small companies have been pushed away by me, and among the major film companies, I think Paramount and Fox are the most sincere, and they both paid a high price of 5 million."
"This is not busy, my conditions, these big companies may not agree, small companies also have small benefits, at least not as dark as large companies, tomorrow I will go to Los Angeles, I will personally talk to these companies." After laughing, in the eyes of ordinary people, the copyright fee of several million dollars may indeed be very high, but Su Zhen, who knows that the box office of each Twilight movie has reached hundreds of millions of dollars, will naturally not be satisfied with this. Although I am not in the entertainment industry, I can't make money from it without a watch, and I believe that those small companies must be more willing to let themselves join the investment to reduce their risks.
After making a decision, Su Zhen hung up the phone, informed Liu Ru, and asked Rachel to book two tickets to Los Angeles tomorrow, and asked Rachel to prepare to go to Los Angeles with him tomorrow to meet those film companies.
