My singer girlfriend is super fierce.

The next day, news about this year's Grammy Awards occupied the headlines of major entertainment news.

Among them, Ye Zhiqiu, who won the most awards, naturally became the first to be reported.

[The 63rd Grammy Awards were announced, and JACKSON YE became the biggest winner! ]

[Shocking! Ye Zhiqiu swept the Grammys, he is a new music legend! ]

[Grammy feast, Ye Zhiqiu won 6 awards and led the music trend around the world! ]

[Grammy Night Bright Star, Ye Zhiqiu was crowned with glory! ]

This time, in addition to European and American media, domestic media also reported extensively on this year's Grammys.

In the past, even if Ye Zhiqiu won an award at a domestic award ceremony, it was inevitable that there would be unconventional media or black fans who could always find some different angles to criticize him, but this time, almost without exception, the entire network was full of praise and flattery.

It can only be said that the achievements Ye Zhiqiu made this time were so great that even the online trolls couldn't criticize him.

In the past, we were competitors, and of course we had to criticize each other from a standpoint, but when the gap in strength between the two sides reached a certain level, this contradiction no longer existed. It probably became a mentality of "He is so awesome, it is not shameful for me to lose, anyway, we are all the same."

In this case, it is better to brag about Ye Zhiqiu, maybe it can also raise my own level invisibly.

Look, the winner of 6 Grammy trophies, I competed with him on the same stage in the past!

The hot discussion on the Internet did not have much impact on Ye Zhiqiu.

The next day, he turned down various interview invitations that came in overwhelmingly, and came to the headquarters of DreamWorks Animation in Glendale, north of Los Angeles.

Since its establishment more than 20 years ago, DreamWorks Animation has produced more than 30 films with box office exceeding 100 million yuan, and is very famous in the industry.

Although the company lost $230 million in the first quarter financial report just released, and laid off 500 employees last year, it can be seen that the recent situation is not very good, but it still remains the most well-known animation company besides giants such as Disney and Pixar.

In fact, the relatively bad situation in the past two years is also the reason why "Animation DreamWorks" is eager to find a breakthrough and decided to cooperate with Fang Long on "Kung Fu Panda".

It's not that they will definitely succeed. This is just one of several projects to try. After all, if they don't do something immediately, the anger of shareholders will not be so easy to bear.

However, the good news is that in addition to Fang Long, another partner this time, Ye Zhiqiu, the screenwriter of "Kung Fu Panda", has just won 6 awards at the Grammy Awards. Although it has little to do with the movie itself, it is also a good publicity point, which makes "Animation DreamWorks" more confident about this cooperation.

Therefore, when seeing the arrival of Hollywood legendary stars Fang Long and Ye Zhiqiu, Carter George, vice president of "Animation DreamWorks", grinned with a very enthusiastic smile on his face.

"Hi! Look who's here! Our Grammy superstar!"

"Ye, welcome to 'Animation DreamWorks'. To be honest, if the media knew you were here, the paparazzi would definitely swarm here and crowd the place!"

Fang Long, wearing a Tang suit and black-framed glasses, had a signature smile on his face and said, "Hey, George, did you ignore me?"

George laughed and said, "Jakie, of course not."

"We are already very familiar with each other, but you know, Ye is the most popular figure in the entire European and American entertainment industry these days."

After a simple greeting, both parties sat down.

The producer of this animated film is "Animation DreamWorks", which is also the largest investor in this film.

"Kung Fu Panda" has a total investment of 80 million, of which Animation DreamWorks invested a total of 40 million, accounting for 50% of the shares, and Fang Long personally invested 15 million - after reading the script, he added 5 million.

Ye Zhiqiu's investment amount is the same as Fang Long's, both are 15 million, but the investment is made in the name of an offshore company specially established by the "Yi Ye Zhi Qiu" studio. This is also for the convenience of operating related overseas projects in the future, so George does not know that Ye Zhiqiu is the actual second investor of this film.

This time, Ye Zhiqiu came mainly to sign the relevant copyright agreements as a screenwriter, and Fang Long participated as the middleman between the two parties.

In Hollywood, the various legal agreements and regulations for film and television copyright transactions are extremely complete, and every detail will be reflected in the contract in text form.

Regarding this contract, the two parties have naturally communicated before, but Ye Zhiqiu's accompanying lawyer still read it very carefully, and handed the contract to Ye Zhiqiu while reading it, and whispered something.

This detail attracted Fang Long's attention. He stopped chatting with George and looked at thisSide.

Ye Zhiqiu didn't say anything. Looking at the contract in his hand, his eyebrows gradually frowned.

Then, he put down the contract in his hand and said calmly: "Mr. George, this contract is a little different from what we discussed before?"

"First, I only authorize the script of "Kung Fu Panda" for film and television adaptation as an author, but as a screenwriter, I have no obligation to accompany the fixed number of promotional activities. This is an additional commercial behavior."

"Second, I want to emphasize again that the film and television adaptation of "Kung Fu Panda" is limited to this script, not including the subsequent original sequel."

"If these two points are not changed, I can't sign this contract."

Hearing this, Fang Long's face changed slightly, but George laughed and said, "Ye, don't be so nervous, everything can be discussed."

"You are the screenwriter of "Kung Fu Panda", this movie is like your child, it is only natural to help promote it."

"Indeed." Ye Zhiqiu nodded and asked back: "Then, will I be the screenwriter or the Grammy Award-winning singer Ye Zhiqiu?"

George was stunned, and the little thoughts hidden in the contract were seen through, and a hint of embarrassment flashed in the depths of his eyes.

If it was an ordinary screenwriter, it would be fine. Even if he attended the crew's promotional activities, it is estimated that not many people would pay attention.

But Ye Zhiqiu is different. Although he is unknown in the Hollywood film industry, he is the hottest superstar in the music industry. In the entertainment circle, his appearance can definitely provide a great help for publicity.

Therefore, the meaning of Ye Zhiqiu's words just now is very clear.

He can attend the promotional activities, but this is not the obligation of the screenwriter, but an additional commercial behavior, and the accounts should be settled one by one.

Although his thoughts were exposed, George did not feel embarrassed, but felt a little unhappy.

He is the person who controls the animation giant with an annual revenue of more than 1 billion US dollars. Although Ye Zhiqiu has some achievements in music, animation movies and music are two different things. How can an unknown screenwriter have the confidence to talk to him like this?
