Chapter 17 Discussion of Copyright Issues
A quarter of an hour later.
finally read a rough Liu Tao, and when I searched for the novel on the contract, I also began to look slowly.
The writing is not bad, the writing is good, and most importantly, the plot is linked one by one, and there is no downfall.
This made him fascinated by the sight of it.
waited until about twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, when he felt that his eyes were a little dry, and he also noticed that it was not early.
However, thinking that tomorrow it seems that the company will have nothing to do, so he made up his mind to read this novel all night.
————————————————————
Ten o'clock in the morning the next day.
After reading the last chapter of the novel, Liu Tao, who found that he still wanted to read it from the beginning, quickly turned off his mobile phone, and then slept under the quilt for a while.
Almost two hours passed.
He got up from the bed, hurriedly put on his clothes and came to the door of Yuewen Group, and saw the man who accidentally left the contract yesterday.
"Well, thank you...... I thought I wouldn't be able to get the contract back, so I had to reprint it. When the man saw that Liu Tao actually drove a Bugatti Veyron 16.4 to him, he was also a little embarrassed and said.
"Hehe, it's okay, that ...... I want to ask, are you planning to sign a contract with the starting point?" After handing the contract to the man, Liu Tao also said bluntly.
The man didn't hide it, and quickly nodded, "I've published nearly 800,000 words in this novel, and I've finally been taken by the editor recently, so I want to sign a contract quickly." ”
"So have you ever thought about selling the copyright?"
"Copyright?"
"Huh...... I want to too, but how can a person like me who can only sign a contract with 800,000 words dare to hope for copyright, I just hope that it can be put on the shelves as soon as possible. ”
After speaking, I saw the man turn around and walk into the Yuewen Group.
"Wait a minute, why don't I buy the copyright of your novel?" Liu Tao was willing to let the man go, and quickly stepped forward to stop him and said.
"You, are you sure? I can barely sign a contract for this novel for 800,000 words......
"Of course it's certain, for a good novel, it's worth spending more money to buy it!" In order to show his sincerity, as soon as the words fell, Liu Tao hurriedly put the one million that Zhang Long gave him last time from his pocket and put it into the man's hand, "There is one million in this, as long as you agree, I am willing to spend three million to buy your copyright." ”
"This ...... Can you make me think about it. ”
The man was a little dumbfounded, he didn't expect happiness to come so soon, two days ago, he was still thinking bitterly about how to sign the contract, but he didn't expect that someone would buy the copyright in a blink of an eye.
You must know that when he first wrote this novel, he wrote it so that he could adapt the novel into a TV series or an online series.
Although the results were not good, it definitely put in a hundred points of effort.
Right now...... The opportunity is close at hand, do you want to give up?
Glancing at the Bugatti Veyron 16.4 parked not far away, the man said firmly: "I can sell you all the rights to adapt TV series, movies, or other peripherals, but I hope you can match it as closely as possible with the plot of the novel, and don't let it become a topic of conversation after dinner!"
"Absolutely. ”
Liu Tao gave the man a reassuring look, and then politely invited the man to the co-pilot's seat and rushed to Zhao Yimou's rented company address.
On the way, he looked at the man who seemed to be a little reluctant to speak, and he didn't know what to say for a while.
I had to casually ask the man what his name was.
The man just replied with an expressionless face: Zhou Lang, and fell into the spell of not speaking again.
Liu Tao can only speed up his driving.
An hour later, the most prosperous commercial street in the magic capital.
A certain floor, 7th floor.
Liu Tao, who came to the company by elevator, saw with his own eyes that the company had been almost all the things purchased by Zhao Yimou, and he also took the lead in walking inside.
After finding Zhao Yimou, he also told him about Zhou Lang.
And Zhao Yimou obviously didn't expect Liu Tao to find a suitable adaptation of the novel so quickly, so he hurriedly pulled him to the side and whispered: "Chairman, this is ...... We don't have any funding sources at the moment, and I'm afraid we won't be able to pay Zhou Lang's copyright fees. ”
“......”
"Okay, I know what you're thinking, I'll give you this money, and you don't have to worry about directing Shenma, I'm just bringing Zhou Lang here to sign a contract. ”
sighed, looking at Zhao Yimou as if you had the final say, Liu Tao also asked him to print out the terms of the contract according to the fixed template.
Then they all signed their names, stamped their seals, and transferred the remaining money to Zhou Lang through bank transfer.
......
Downstairs from the company.
After drinking two cups of tea, Liu Tao, who wanted to invite Zhou Lang to a meal, found that Zhou Lang seemed to be in a hurry, so he didn't forcibly keep him, said a few polite words, and after sending him away, he returned to the company.
I called Wang Dalong and asked if there were any calls from some directors.
Wang Dalong was very happy, and directly sent him more than a dozen numbers through text messages, but he said that this favor could not be in vain, and he wanted him to have a meal.
Where would he refuse, just say if there is time in the afternoon.
Wang Dalong said: Yes.
So after saving those mobile phone numbers in the address book, Liu Tao also directly made an appointment with the French restaurant he had eaten last time, and then rushed to Yuewen Group.
When Wang Dalong walked out of the company, he also hurriedly walked over, "Mr. Wang, please...... Today I'm here to be your driver. ”
"Huh...... You kid...... It's really hidden, I didn't expect to be able to afford to drive such an expensive sports car. ”
Wang Dalong saw that the car turned out to be a Bugatti Veyron 16.4, and he also approached and turned around twice.
After all, although he is an executive of Yuewen Group, he doesn't have so much money to buy this kind of car.
You must know that Bugatti Veyron 16.4, not only is the annual maintenance cost ridiculously high, but just the oil added to it, if you drive it back and forth every day for a month, I am afraid that his salary is barely enough.
Of course, Liu Tao didn't climb up the pole, but said euphemistically: "What is hidden is not revealed, it's just a broken car, if you want to sit in Mr. Wang, I can be your full-time driver at any time." ”
"No need, let's go eat!" Wang Dalong shook his head, and then opened the car door and entered the back seat.
And Liu Tao didn't waste any more time, and after sitting back in the driver's seat, he sped away under the surprised eyes of the two security guards at the entrance of Yuewen Group.
