640. Brother Wang, I want to talk about the script (two in one)

"12 million, Chengtian Entertainment bid 12 million."

Before the 10 million offer of Huaxia Light and Shadow was reported, Liu Pujia heard that someone had added another 2 million, and her voice was a little more excited.

It's really unexpected, tens of millions of sky-high adaptation royalties, more than double expectations, and it still doesn't stop?

This is completely different from what Writer Wang communicated with her.

The rest of the writers in attendance were amazed by the prestige of the 'Honorary President', and they were all envious and jealous.

The board members sitting in the front row were pleasantly surprised.

Tens of millions of donations have been donated, so can't these directors go out and take first class?

As for the regulation of funds, they subconsciously ignored it.

They are not greedy, they just need to travel!!

"15 million."

Glancing at the little manager from Hong Kong City, Li Yinhuan raised his card for the second time, increasing the original budget by 10 million.

Knowing this, I didn't take this opportunity to publicize it, made a private deal with the big writer, and then remitted the copyright transfer fee to the Chinese Science Fiction Association, which was a hundred.

It's just that the matter has come to this, and she doesn't want to complain, so she should support the domestic science fiction cause.

"What's going on?"

Seeing that the copyright price of the auction soared to three times as expected, Wang Yongren, the original creator, couldn't help but stroke his forehead.

If the copyright fee is speculated to tens of millions, plus the production cost, it is estimated that it will not be able to hold 50 or 60 million, and the box office will not be able to level without 200 million.

If you really want to cooperate with Hollywood, those giants can't watch this film.

No, this movie fluttered?

That will have a little impact on his personal reputation, after all, this is money donated to the Chinese Science Fiction Association, and it will always be mentioned in the future.

"16 million."

Manager Huang of Chengtian Entertainment smiled and raised his sign, and then said to Mr. Li, who was depressed: "Mr. Li, I'm sorry, our boss has always respected Writer Wang, and I also hope that the company can produce one more science fiction movie." ”

They filmed "Magic City Fortress" before, but they invested 200 million US dollars, which is just pediatrics.

Before the bidding, the boss gave him a budget of 20 million.

"Manager Huang is at will."

Knowing this guy's background, Li Yinhuan didn't talk much nonsense.

Their Nanyue Film and Television has not yet been listed, and all they spend is the company's money, as well as her own money, and there is still financial pressure.

"Mr. Li doesn't shout the price, then I'll do it for you."

Mr. Tian next to him, the old god raised his card freely: "20 million." ”

Chengtian Entertainment acquired Jiahe, at best, it is billions of dollars, and their Huaxia light and shadow are tens of billions, and they can still scare each other.

Liu Pujia on the stage hadn't reported the '16 million' yet, but the quotation was refreshed again, and the trembling hand with excitement almost knocked down the hammer: "Huaxia Light and Shadow is out of 20 million." ”

The writers on the scene were already shocked again and again, and they were a little numb.

All they want now is to know how much this final offer is?!!!

20 million, will it not be the bottom line?

"Mr. Tian, I have a heart."

Looking down at the information he had just received, Li Yinhuan did not continue to offer.

If she continues to bid, she will not dare to let Jinghong Studio be responsible for it later, which will go against the original intention.

Anyway, their Nanyue Film and Television is not bad for such a movie.

"Mr. Li, rest assured, I will definitely invite your company to cooperate when the time comes."

Hearing that Mr. Li, who was not well-known but had a deep background, let go, Mr. Tian breathed a sigh of relief and gave a commitment to cooperation.

After all, the other party's energy in the domestic film and television industry, as well as the relationship with Paramount, are not something he can ignore.

"Mr. Tian has strong capital, so we won't follow Chengtian."

Manager Huang, who had insufficient authority, reported to the boss by text message, but also stopped and did not continue to offer.

If the auction continues, if it causes the film to lose money, it will be more than worth the loss.

After all, this "Source Code" was not released on the market and did not have a sufficient audience base.

If it has been released, then they Chengtian Entertainment will definitely not be reluctant to give up that money.

Another point is that the shares of Jiahe acquired by them have been listed for many years, and the investment institutions and shareholders are very rational, unlike Huaxia Light and Shadow, and there are still many major shareholders whose shares have not been lifted.

"Concession."

Seeing the two competitors withdraw, Mr. Tian had a little more smile on his face.

Originally, he had prepared $5 million, but now it seems that he has saved a small half.

"Congratulations to Mr. Tian of Huaxia Light and Shadow for taking the copyright of this "Source Code" at a price of 20 million."

I didn't hear anyone quote for more than half a minute, Liu Pujia and Wang Da writer at the front row of the main table glanced at each other, and knocked down the hammer after getting the signal.

There is no doubt that it should be Wang Da Writer who secretly ended this auction.

Otherwise, with the strength of the other two offers, the 20 million will definitely not be the final offer.

The writers who originally thought that the offer would continue to rise, were slightly disappointed and felt unsatisfied.

However, looking back, the sales of the new book "Gravity" in June last year broke the record of Wang Da writer himself, and the Hollywood giant Paramount participated in it, and got tens of millions of dollars in adaptation royalties, which is reasonable.

Now the copyright of this sci-fi adaptation that I don't know anything about, some film and television companies spend 20 million to buy it, which is already a bit sensational.

In their case, it is estimated that no one will buy it for 20,000.

The comparison between people is long overdue to be swept into the garbage heap.

The 20 million yuan will be remitted to the special account of the association, and the association will also ask a special person to supervise the use of the account funds. In the second China Nebula Award next year, the prize money and trophies will not disappoint everyone. ”

In the applause of everyone, Wang Yongren, honorary president of the Chinese Science Fiction Association and a world-renowned writer, ended his 3-minute speech, which was also the first speech at the Huaxia Nebula Awards ceremony tonight.

This speech was recognized by all the writers present.

Wouldn't it be beautiful to participate in the award competition, not only to eat and drink all-inclusively, but also to get bonuses!!

Next year, they will definitely come again!

Presumably, with tonight's 20 million sponsorship money, next year's prize money is absolutely indispensable.

"President Wang, thank you for your strong support for the development of the association"

"You're welcome, this is what my generation should do."

After chatting with President Liu and several directors, Wang Yongren said goodbye and left, and came to a quiet box on the third floor of the hotel, where he saw Mr. Li and Mr. Tian who were drinking tea.

Well, plus a Tian girl who shouldn't be here.

"Mr. Tian, thank you for your support to our Chinese science fiction cause."

After entering the door, Wang Yongren thanked Mr. Tian for the first time.

Tonight is the home of the Chinese Science Fiction Association, and the cost of the other party's purchase of the copyright is also donated to the association.

"Writer Wang is polite, and I have also benefited."

Holding hands, Mr. Tian said his purpose indifferently: "The creation of the script of this movie requires a lot of help from Writer Wang." ”

"Definitely."

Regarding this, Wang Yongren did not have the slightest prevarication, and then greeted the other two.

"Brother Wang, we meet again."

When it was her turn to shake hands, Tian Jinxiu did not take the initiative to let go, but playfully scratched the other party's palm.

"I haven't seen you for a few days, and the splendid beauty is a lot more beautiful."

Raising his eyebrows, Wang Yongren let go of the other party's soft palm.

He didn't expect this innocent girl to be so bold.

Why, are you afraid that he won't be able to lift a stick?

"Huh."

For the praise of the handsome writer, Tian Jinxiu was very useful and laughed happily.

After a brief familiarization, Mr. Tian took the initiative to ask about the production cycle of this movie: "Writer Wang, how long do you think it will take to shoot and produce this movie?" ”

As for the amount of investment, it is not a matter for Huaxia Light and Shadow, which has a market value of more than 10 billion today.

If it is operated properly, it is not difficult for their company to surpass Huachen Brothers and become the first stock of domestic film and television!

The position of the industry leader, it is time for them to sit in light and shadow.

"According to my previous thoughts, with domestic actors as the mainstay, plus special effects production, it shouldn't take more than half a year."

Speaking of this time, Wang Yongren was also a little helpless.

Originally, he and Mr. Li had a good discussion, and even Xu Cainu said hello, who would have expected that someone would stick in with him.

What should I say when I go back and talk to Xu Cainu and them?!

"Is it enough for such a short time?"

Hearing this production time, Mr. Tian couldn't help but feel a sudden burst in his heart.

This time is too short, it is still a science fiction film, and the science fiction blockbuster projects led by Paramount will take nearly a year, or even longer.

"The main scene of the film is on a train"

In the face of this bigwig who spent 20 million to buy copyrights, Wang Yongren also talked in detail about his ideas for adapting the script.

The specific details are naturally the work of professional screenwriters.

"It's a great idea."

After listening carefully to the other party's story, Mr. Tian couldn't help but pat the table excitedly.

What makes him happy is not only the infinite loop of creativity, but also because the investment in this script is obviously not very large, and the special effects do not need to be wasted, it can be made into a small but complete high-quality science fiction film.

It seems that tonight I licked my face and entered the auction, which was really profitable.

"Still."

Looking at Mr. Tian's surprised appearance, Wang Yongren couldn't help but interrupt the other party's thoughts: "Last year, Hollywood's Warner Film and Television was already making a sci-fi movie similar to this kind of circular scene, which is expected to be released in the second half of this year." ”

He is talking about "Inception", which many science fiction fans love.

The reason why I came up with this script to Jinghong Studio is to create a low-cost sci-fi film in China, and by the way, there is a time difference, so that those sci-fi fans think of the infinite loop scene, and they think of "Source Code" first.

It's just that the current situation has obviously been disrupted by Mr. Tian.

"Mr. Li, you said that we will cooperate and let Paramount be in charge of overseas distribution when the time comes, how about it?"

knocked on the table, and after thinking about it, Mr. Tian extended an olive branch to Li Yinhuan.

When bidding just now, he said that if he wanted to let the other party get a piece of the pie, he would naturally not break his promise.

"As long as the benefits offered are enough, Paramount will not refuse."

Knowing Mr. Tian's calculations, Li Yinhuan did not object to this cooperation.

And the previous agreement between her and Wang Da writer was naturally nullified.

"Then let's set a budget of 100 million and invite the Hollywood team to come over and have a combination of Chinese and Western styles, and rush to release it in the summer vacation. Heroine, just let my eldest niece go on, how about it? ”

Seeing that the other party agreed, Mr. Tian also said a rough plan very directly.

Even if this movie doesn't make money, it's good to give his eldest niece an extra box office resume.

Anyway, as long as the box office of the movie exceeds $100 million, it is enough to push their company's stock price upward, and those retail shareholders will not really calculate how much money Huaxia Light and Shadow makes.

As for whether there can be a box office of 100 million US dollars, with the name of Wang Da writer and Paramount's channel, there is no need to worry at all.

"Yes."

In this regard, Li Yinhuan agreed very happily.

As long as Writer Wang doesn't forcibly recommend the heroine, she has no requirements for this, Nanyue Film and Television only makes a small amount of money in terms of artist brokerage contracts.

In addition to the production of film and television dramas, they are now focusing on variety shows, and the first season of "Running Man" broadcast on Star TV in October last year won the first place in the ratings of variety shows in the same period, and the momentum is no worse than "The Voice of China".

The filming of the second season of this year has not yet begun, and there are already advertising cooperative manufacturers who have come to the door, and it is expected that the revenue of a single season of the program will not be less than 100 million.

In addition, his best friend Han Xiaozhu also got the script of another variety show "Extreme War" from Writer Wang, and the crew has already prepared it.

"Writer Wang, this follow-up script adaptation has to trouble you. Rest assured, we will definitely give the cost of the script consultant, just 5 million, how about it? ”

After getting the partner, Mr. Tian looked at the young writers present with a smile.

Although he spent 20 million to shoot the other party's script, and the other party will also volunteer to help repair the script, whether to give money or not is a completely different concept.

What's more, he doesn't have to pay for this money, so why not do it.

"Mr. Tian's kindness, I received it."

Hearing that 5 million was sent to the door, Wang Yongren was not reserved, and accepted it directly.

Sometimes, you don't have to be too reserved, that seems hypocritical.

"Okay, I wish us a happy cooperation!"

The conversation went so smoothly, Mr. Tian raised his glass with a smile on his face.

"Happy working together!"

The three chatted happily for a while, and when they were about to separate, Tian Jinxiu took the initiative to speak: "Brother Wang, I want to ask you about this script, I don't know if it's inconvenient?" ”

"Yes, but some of my manuscripts are still in my hotel room."

"That's right, let's go to your room to talk, so as not to be overheard by others."

"Okay."

wanted to refuse in the middle of the night, but Wang Yongren glanced at the treacherous and cunning Mr. Tian, smiled and nodded.

took the 5 million, but you can't be perfunctory.

It's just that he talked about the script late at night, and this Mr. Tian was also relieved that his eldest niece was a little too big.

I think that at the beginning, Tianxian MM was wearing a cheongsam costume for the reason of chatting about the script, so that he had no way to refuse and determined the relationship between the two parties.

The cheongsam outfit seems to be held by Sister Tian.

"Yongren, then Jinxiu will trouble you."

Looking at the enterprising spirit of his eldest niece, Mr. Tian was very relieved to see it, and he didn't have the slightest idea of stopping it.

Young people, no one can say for sure.

In contrast, Li Yinhuan, who knows some insiders, looks at the young handsome writer with great interest, and sighs for his girlfriend in his heart.

This 'modern version of Tang Seng' is very popular!

"Brother Wang, how did you come up with such a wonderful plot?"

Walking into the elevator, Tian Jinxiu, who was wearing a white tight dress, asked curiously, and the steps under her feet unconsciously got a little closer.

"There's a light film in Sakura Country, which tells the story of an infinite loop. It's just that it's set against the backdrop of a future alien invasion."

As for his source of inspiration, Wang Yongren has a good reason.

Looking back, I can let Nanyue Film and Television buy the adaptation copyright of that film, it seems that the reputation of "Edge of Tomorrow" is not bad, but the box office is not good.

This one is put aside for the time being, and the production cost is too high, and it may not be appropriate.

"Wow, Brother Wang has read so many literary works."

Listening to the other party's story, Tian Jinxiu looked at the other party with admiration on her face.

"Ahem, I'll just take a look."

was praised so bluntly by a beautiful girl, Wang Yongren was really embarrassed.

Just as the elevator stopped and opened the door, Wang Yongren immediately walked out.

As the two entered the house, a camera in the corner gently pressed the shutter.
