Chapter 787: Edit, Ben Xian (8)

Even if you are talented, you can be self-taught in the director's line. But we can't take risks with you, because we can't afford to lose. ”

Wei Huafeng said earnestly and persuasively: "This film is a key project that our company attaches great importance to, and we will invest a lot of manpower, material and financial resources in the future, and we can't ignore the cost of all this." ”

"I understand your concerns." Dill said, "To put it bluntly, you're just worried that the movie I directed won't achieve your expectations at the box office, right?" ”

The purpose of elaborate grooming was pierced by dill, and Wei Huafeng couldn't help but be a little embarrassed.

But he still nodded stubbornly and said, "Since you also understand, I hope you can understand." ”

"I understand." Dill continued, "So, give me a number. ”

"What?" Wei Huafeng was puzzled.

"That's how much the film has to do at least at the box office to live up to your expectations."

Wei Huafeng was stunned, and after a while, he slowly spit out a number: "At least one billion." ”

"Okay."

"What?" Wei Huafeng was puzzled again.

"If the box office doesn't exceed one billion, I'll make up for the unreached part." Dill replied calmly.

Wei Huafeng's eyes widened, and after a long time, he said in an incredulous tone, "Miss Yuan, do you know what you're talking about?" ”

"One billion is not a small amount. As far as I know, you don't have that much savings right now, do you? ”

"Not really." Dill replied without hesitation, "But what if you add the "Night Blossom" series? ”

The "Night Huazhuo" series is a hot serialized work that is strolling in the garden, the first two have ended, and the third part is being serialized.

If it is said that after "Childhood Sweethearts Sometimes End", the stroll gradually entered the field of vision of the majority of readers.

Then the "Night Huazhuo" series is a work of fame in the true sense of the word.

Since its serialization, the cumulative number of hits of the whole series has exceeded 2 billion, and the number of collections has reached 100 million.

According to conservative estimates of the website's backend data, the book has almost 10 million fans.

In this era of prevalent IP, the original fans of the work are equivalent to natural traffic.

You may say that tens of millions are nothing, and any famous Internet celebrity can have tens of millions of followers on Weibo.

But there is an essential difference between an author's fans and a celebrity's or Internet celebrity's fans.

Fans of the author, each one of them spent real money.

And the celebrity's fans on Weibo are not necessarily willing to pay the price of money.

Sure enough, when he heard Dill say this, Wei Huafeng's originally calm expression became uneasy.

He sat up straight and leaned forward slightly, the expression on his face very excited.

A few days ago, when the company held a middle and high-level meeting, it also discussed the planning of future IP operation.

Among them, the most highly anticipated is the "Night Blossom" series.

This series can be made into at least three films, with extremely considerable profit margins.

"What are you talking about...... Is it true? If the box office does not meet expectations, then you are willing to sell us the copyright of the "Night Blossom" series for free? ”

"That's right," Dill nodded, affirming Wei Huafeng's words, "Now let's take a look at the conditions I just proposed, do you think it's feasible?" ”

"No problem, I promised you on behalf of AQ Film and Television." Wei Huafeng hurriedly responded.

"I'll go back and revise the contract now, and tomorrow oh no, this afternoon, we'll sign it."

Probably worried about the long nights and dreams, Wei Huafeng didn't even want to wait for a noon.

He immediately took out the tablet he had with him and sent the contract and requirements online to the lead lawyer, asking him to revise it for himself as soon as possible.

And he himself, smiling in his chair, looked at the dill amiably.

"Please wait a while, and when the contract is revised and sent over, we will sign the contract immediately."

Dill has no opinion, and she naturally doesn't want to put off until the afternoon what she can do in the morning.

About half an hour later, a dusty figure hurriedly pushed open the door of the coffee shop and trotted in.

"Manager Wei, this is the contract you want." Assistant Xiao Wang ran to the desk sweating profusely and handed the document bag containing the contract to Wei Huafeng.

"Okay, thank you." Wei Huafeng took the contract and nodded.

He took out the contract from the document bag, went through it from beginning to end, and after confirming that it was correct, he solemnly handed it over to Dill.

"It's a new contract, take a look."

Dill read the ten lines at a glance, and after seeing that the last page re-added the two conditions he proposed, he nodded with satisfaction: "There is no problem." ”

She took the black pen handed by her assistant Xiao Wang, and neatly signed her name at the end of the contract.

Wei Huafeng then signed his name in the corresponding position.

"This is your share, please keep it." The contract was in duplicate, and he handed one of them to Dill and the other back in the file bag.

Then, he introduced to dill: "This is the assistant Xiao Wang." The day after tomorrow at the latest, he will send you a detailed schedule to your mailbox. ”

Dill let out a soft "um", and Wei Huafeng continued: "If there is anything else, please feel free to contact me." ”

"Okay." Dilolite landed.

"Well, it's a pleasure to work with." Wei Huafeng stretched out his hand and shook Dill's hand.

"It's a pleasure to work with."

"Great God, looking forward to our next collaboration." Wei Huafeng said with a smile.

"Hmm."

After asking for Dill's mailbox, the assistant Xiao Wang left with his boss.

Before leaving, he said with a look half excited and half shy: "Tingda, my girlfriend and I are both your fans, can you please sign for me?" ”

In the past mission world, I have seen a lot of creatures like dill.

But the fan brother ......

It's still rare.

So, Dill smiled approachably and said, "No problem, where is the sign?" ”

"Sign it on the book." Xiao Wang quickly took out a book from his arms, and saw that the cover was the published book of "Childhood Sweethearts".

"Looks like you're prepared." Dill teased as she signed her name in a chic manner.

Xiao Wang blushed and said, "I knew I was going to see you, so I took it with me." ”

...

After Wei Huafeng and Xiao Wang left, Dill did not leave the café immediately, but sat in her seat and took out her mobile phone from her pocket unhurriedly.
