I have nothing to do

77.

3000 million

Weng Chi felt that he had exhausted his whole life's self-cultivation to be able to keep smiling.

He really wanted to ask Tang Yize if he refused to do it himself because the risk of robbing the bank was too high and forced himself to do it.

3000 million is approximately equal to the top IP of top authors.

3000 million is approximately equal to an individual's independent investment in a small and medium-cost film.

3000 million is about the same as spending all the money on a film to make at least [-] million at the box office before recovering the cost.

So, is the copyright fee of 3000 million yuan worthy of "Hunting Red"?Is Liu Qiming worthy?Is Cheng Xinyuan compatible?Is the horror film made by Cheng Xinyuan worthy?

When "Hunting Red" was serialized, it couldn't dominate the list of the male channel on the roundtable Chinese website. It can only be said that most of the time it can be ranked in the top ten. Although it exploded within a certain range before and after the end, However, due to the limitation of the subject matter, there is no result of the whole network blooming.

And 3000 million is just the copyright fee. Originally, he and Cheng Xinyuan invested about 9000 million in this movie. They haven't figured out where the money for the later announcement will come from. Now they have to spend 3000 million for the copyright, unless Cheng Xinyuan Go crazy, or go crazy yourself.

"Is Mr. Tang serious? To be honest, I think the price is too high." Weng Chi laughed dryly, "I think Mr. Tang also knows what an order of magnitude 3000 million is in the copyright field of online texts? I personally think The novel "Hunting Red" has not yet reached this level."

Hearing Weng Chi's words, Tang Yize laughed, and he said: "Mr. Weng is right. If it were normal, this book is indeed not worth the price, but as the saying goes, money can't buy a heart. Xinyuan told me that he really likes this book, and as far as I know, the quotation at the round table seems not low, I just followed suit, and I am much less than them."

Weng Chi was a little surprised. He didn't know where Tang Yize came from, but he was so well informed. Not only did he know that they had just gone to the round table to ask for a quotation, but he also knew the price offered by the round table.

At that time, the round table opened a film and television copyright of 4000 million, and there was no room for maneuver. It did not accept any resource replacement, and it wanted a real 4000 million.

Although anyone with a discerning eye knows that the round table is not sincerely for sale, but this does not affect Tang Yize's high price based on this.

"May I take the liberty to ask, did Mr. Tang explain the price to Director Cheng just now?"

"Cough, that's not true. We were just reminiscing about the old days." Tang Yize's expression became a little unnatural. He pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose and said lightly, "Xinyuan is engaged in art. He is not interested in money. You may not know much about it.”

"I don't understand, so I have to tell him. After all, you said it too. Director Cheng said that he really wanted to make this book." Weng Chi sat on the sofa with a casual look, "You also said it just now, Money can't buy him what he likes, and as far as I know, Director Cheng doesn't have much money."

"Does he have to pay for the movie himself?" Tang Yize restrained his smile, "I think it's not difficult to find an investor in his capacity."

"Are you referring to the investor who paid 3000 million yuan for the copyright of a horror novel to a young emerging director?" Weng Chi asked with a smile.

"But he's won awards at international film festivals, and he's very talented."

"Yes, he won the award, but he didn't go to accept the award at all. Not only did he not go, but he openly bombarded the organizing committee on social media," Weng Chi crossed his legs and folded his arms, looked into Tang Yize's eyes, and said, "How many contacts do you think he has when he just returned to China? Do you think he has more friends or enemies in this circle?"

"If your company insists on asking for this price, and he insists on bidding, I may have to consider whether the return on investment is worth my money."

"By the way, Cheng Xinyuan has a house in Jiangzhou. He lives there now. Although the location is average, the house price in Jiangzhou is better than that. If he sells it, he should be able to subsidize it."

"Mr. Weng is joking with me." Tang Yize lowered his eyelids and remained silent for a while, then said, "I'm a little curious, is Mr. Weng contributing in his personal capacity?"

"Of course not."

Weng Chi looked at his watch in a gesture: "I think so, Mr. Tang, it's a bit late today, I have other arrangements tonight, I can't shirk it, so let's discuss it in detail another day, and I also need to discuss this Please explain the price situation to Director Cheng, and it depends on his personal opinion, after all, you also know that he is not a very firm person, but I still hope that Mr. Tang will give priority to talking with us for the sake of Director Cheng."

After saying these words, Weng Chi got up and went to Tang Yize's table and shook hands with Tang Yize.

"See you next time."

---------------

Cheng Xinyuan was sitting on the sofa in the reception room smoking a cigarette. When Weng Chi walked in, he thought it was on fire.

The petals in the ashtray were already black, and the cigarette butts were standing on it one by one.

"Restrain yourself, this is someone else's territory." Weng Chi walked over and kicked Cheng Xinyuan's foot, "Let's go."

"The talk is over? How long has it been?" Cheng Xinyuan looked at his phone, it seemed that it was less than half an hour.

"How long have you been smoking so much, go, go out and talk."

It wasn't until the two of them left the building that Cheng Xinyuan dared to ask how the conversation was going. Weng Chi sneered and said it wasn't great.

"What do you mean not very good?"

"Two words: no money."

Weng Chi walked quickly to the parking lot. Regardless of whether Cheng Xinyuan followed behind, he found his car, opened the door and got in. Afterwards, Cheng Xinyuan also sat in the co-pilot. He panted heavily while wearing his seat belt. Soon he was working hard, and he felt that Weng Chi was angry, and he calmed down for a while before carefully asking how much it was.

The numbers were squeezed out by Weng Chi through his teeth.

Cheng Xinyuan was also surprised.

Cheng Xinyuan knew that the copyright of novels was expensive now, but he didn't know it was so expensive.

"Liu Qiming said that he sold it to Emerald City for 15 yuan." Cheng Xinyuan frowned and said, "It's only been a few years."

"Oh, then I have to praise your Tang Yize for having a conscience. After all, that so-and-so is the one who wrote about archaeology. His article was sold for 10 yuan, but your Tang Yize gave a huge sum of 15 yuan."

"Don't worry about my family, I have a very clean relationship with him."

"Then what about your hair rope?" Weng Chi rolled his eyes at Cheng Xinyuan, "Change it, ancestor, this one is really too expensive, I don't have that much money, and even if I look for other investment now, it's not that I can't find it, but the copyright is in The proportion of the budget is too large, the key is that it is not worth it. If you are an archaeological author, you will not lose 3000 million to 4000 million, because after you get the copyright of this kind of IP, you are not asking for investment, but others are rushing to give you money , but this book can’t reach that position.”

"Can't we talk about something cheaper?" Cheng Xinyuan asked tentatively

"Let me tell you the truth, I don't even want to pay 1000 million." Weng Chi parked the car in a parking space next to a restaurant, but didn't get out of the car in a hurry. He tapped the steering wheel with his fingers and said in a deep voice, "Wait a minute , he should lower the price, you should work harder, it is you who want to make a movie, not me!"

"Or I'll ask Mingze... Last time I met him, we chatted a little and I told him that I want to make a movie..."

"...It's not impossible, then you just ask him to find a special person to talk to Emerald City." Weng Chi knocked on the steering wheel and made a beeping sound.

"He said that although he is interested," Cheng Xinyuan stuck out his tongue and licked his dry upper lip, "but I hope to understand the situation with you before making a decision..."

"I dont go."
