Chapter 660: Cooperation
"Xiaopeng, are you going to hide like this?"
"Hide? Why do you say the word hiding? ”
Raising his eyebrows, Sun Peng obviously didn't agree with the second sister's statement, and said with a smile: "I just have no interest in those interviews, and I think even if I accept the interview, there seems to be nothing to say!" ”
During this time, there were more reporters who were often blocked at the door of the house.
In fact, from the release of "Eyes of Heaven", to the box office of "Keep Talking", which exceeded one billion, and then "Spirited Away" began to explode, and the news of "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds" was revealed......
In addition, Chen Feifei's new album is about to be released, which makes the name Lao Bai popular and popular.
It would be strange if the reporter didn't think about it.
So seeing Sun Peng's calm appearance, Sun Ya, as an agent and second sister, had a headache, so she could only smile helplessly and wryly: "Okay, even if you don't want to be interviewed...... Anyway, your reputation is rotten in journalistic circles, and that's okay. But how many animation companies in China now want to buy the adaptation rights of your picture books, do you know? Not going to think about it either? ”
"Oh? How strong are they? ”
"There are two of them that are the same level as Hafei Animation, what do you say?"
Rolling her eyes, Sun Ya said angrily: "Actually, after the news of the American adaptation of "Frozen" came out a few years ago, many families came to buy it, but the price was not high, so I didn't care, but now, ...... Hehe, "Spirited Away's Hide" is running for 25 billion yen at the box office in Japan, and these people are really in a hurry! ”
"Hey......
Hearing the second sister say this, Sun Peng was suddenly happy.
These people are really mature businessmen, although they took a fancy to Lao Bai's fame at the beginning, and then the sales of those picture books seemed to be quite good, but after all, they were not proven in film and television, so the highest price was only two or three million to buy out the adaptation rights. Not to mention that it is impossible for Sun Peng to agree, even if it is the agent Sun Ya's level, they don't think they can pass.
Anyway, Sun Peng's royalties are so high, and he can't look down on millions of small money.
But after the news of the Americans' adaptation of "Frozen" and the news that it was a big production with an investment of hundreds of millions of dollars came out, these people's attitudes changed all of a sudden. Not only did the standard of copyright fees skyrocket to more than five million all of a sudden, but also the box office and peripheral dividends were also willing to give, and it can be said that it has risen by at least three grades overall!
It's just that Sun Peng at that time was still determined not to sell!
And then ......
This summer, "Spirited Away's Hidden Spirit" was born.
The domestic box office has exceeded 2 billion, and the Japanese box office forecast has risen again and again, and now it has risen to between 25 billion yen and 27 billion yen, which is so close to the 26.3 billion yen of the all-time box office champion!
"The highest price is 10 million in copyright fees, plus two points of box office and peripheral sharing!"
The corners of her mouth curved into a small arc, and Sun Ya couldn't help but smile and said, "How is it?" Is there a little bit of excitement? This price is quite good, and it is the top quotation in China! ”
"No, no!"
Without any hesitation, Sun Peng shook his head categorically.
10 million Chinese coins?
This price is really not low, it is enough to buy the works of any senior writer, not to mention the two points of sharing? But if you want to buy those picture books by Sun Peng......
I'm sorry, but there's still a lot of difference!
If you don't know these picture books...... No, it should be said that after the adaptation of these works, Sun Peng may really sell them. But now that he knows that these are prospects for hundreds of millions of dollars at the box office, of course Sun Peng will not sell so cheaply.
And more importantly, can these people really adapt these works?
No way, Sun Peng really couldn't believe it.
So after smiling, Sun Peng continued: "It's impossible to sell copyrights, but if they are interested in cooperating, they can consider it!" ”
"Cooperation? What do you mean? ”
After listening to Sun Peng's words, the agent was stunned.
This kid's refusal is a normal performance, Sun Ya is not the slightest surprise, after all, she understands the importance of this younger brother to his own things, and the production strength of domestic animation companies is there, which is indeed unsightly. But now that she suddenly said that she could cooperate, Sun Ya was a little puzzled.
"I mean, with DreamWorks!"
Taking a deep breath, Sun Peng nodded and said: "Now the strength of DreamWorks is improving quite fast, after a while, after the slam dunk is over and the condor shooting is on the right track, I plan to try to make an animated movie by myself to see ......"
"What? Are you going to make an animated movie? ”
Before her brother finished speaking, Sun Ya's eyes widened in surprise!
"Hehe, is it weird?"
Shrugging his shoulders, Sun Peng smiled and said, "Otherwise, it's just to do these animations, and I use them to keep recruiting people and send them out to study?" Besides, I spent so much money to poach people from Japan and the United States, is it just for martial arts animation? ”
Thinking of his investment in DreamWorks, Sun Peng felt a little distressed.
Animated movies are different from ordinary movies, except for the larger investment in equipment, the rest is basically manual expenditure. Compared with the animation practitioners in China, the real elites in big animation countries like Japan and the United States have much higher incomes, and if they are invited to work in China......
If you don't give more money, who will?
But even so, in the past two years, under the urging of Sun Peng, Chen Muchen and Xia Qingqing still took the opportunity to cooperate and had a lot of contact with the animation elites over there. It is expected that by the beginning of next year at the latest, at least a dozen masters can be recruited, plus the talents they have cultivated themselves, and there will be no problem at all in forming an elite small team!
With such confidence, why can't you give it a try?
For those classic animations moved from the earth, Sun Peng plans to return some of them to the Americans, making money and helping to make a name for himself at the same time, but part of Sun Peng plans to hand it over to DreamWorks. It's just that with Xia Qingqing, their current strength is definitely still insufficient, if there are other major domestic factories together......
"Okay, I'll talk to them."
For Sun Peng's decision, the agent has always trusted and supported it, and Sun Ya immediately smiled and nodded.
After chatting about these daily matters, Sun Ya thought for a while and then asked, "By the way, there is one more thing...... Shuxiang Publishing House is urging you every day to ask when you plan to write your new book? ”
"Hehe, at the end of the year."
Stretching hard, Sun Peng shrugged his shoulders and smiled: "I'm thinking about it, and I should be able to write it by the end of the year at the latest...... Haha, it shouldn't be a big problem to catch up with "Kill Bill" before it is released! ”
"You kid......"
Hearing him say this, Sun Ya was also speechless.
If other writers have Sun Peng's foundation, they must have at least half of their hearts on the new book. He's good, now he only squeezes out a set every time he cooperates with a movie or something, and he is making his own movies or games every day......
Thinking of the game, Sun Ya suddenly asked with some curiosity: "Xiaopeng, your war game is about to be tested internally, what about the promotional video you mentioned earlier?" When will it be done? ”
"Promotional video? Almost! ”
Blinking, Sun Peng smiled: "I plan to release the first version of the Huaxia version in the next two days, and then see the effect of the internal test, if it's good, I can make two more promotional videos...... Well, I'll wait for the open beta to release an international version of ......"
