Chapter 79 Look, Pu Ding Has Started the Operation!
Wei Fan found out about this news immediately and forwarded the article to Fu Weng.
"Look, Pu Dingle has started to make a move!"
Fu Weng: Σ(°△°|||)︴
"With this wave of public opinion, not only will his book be a bestseller, but many film and television companies will also pay attention to it. If you really want to shoot it, you have to hurry up and grab the copyright."
Fu Weng: "Fuck! So weird?"
"This is Pu Dingle, what do you think!"
Fu Weng: "Goodbye, I'm going to buy the copyright first!"
After Fu Weng ended the call with Wei Fan, he immediately called the copyright department of Qidian.
"Okay, I've decided to buy the copyright of the TV series "Rural Rogue Doctor". You can draft the contract."
Qidian Copyright Department: "80."
"???"
"What 80?"
Qidian Copyright Department: "The copyright fee has increased. The minimum is 800,000 yuan."
Fu Weng: Σ(っ°Д°;)っ
"Oh my god! I just asked for 600,000 the day before yesterday! Do you want to be so ruthless!"
"Who told you not to buy it the day before yesterday?"
Fu Weng: (*゜ー゜*)
"That's cruel. Wait for you guys!"
Wait for me to ask the sponsor for money~嘤嘤嘤!
Fu Weng just got on the producer's way with Penguin Pictures, and he could invest in a rural-themed TV series to test the waters on Penguin Pictures.
At this time, I was shocked to hear that he was going to spend 800,000 to buy a novel, and he hadn't adapted the script yet!
"Is your crew worthy?"
Fu Weng is a director who shoots low-cost rural dramas. The cost of a drama is only 1 or 2 million. Now he has to spend 800,000 to buy the copyright of a novel that has not been adapted into a script.
Crazy!
It's simply crazy!
The producer of Penguin originally wanted to spend 2 million to make a low-cost rural-themed TV series to fill the current TV series library and see if it is possible to win big with a small investment. After all, there are very few TV series in this category, and they are all old TV series shot many years ago.
In this way, it is best to make money, and even if you lose, you won't lose much.
This copyright costs 800,000, and if you hire two young screenwriters to adapt it into a script, at least another 400,000 will be spent.
"No, absolutely not. My highest expectation is only 500,000 yuan. If we can negotiate, we will negotiate. If we can't negotiate, forget it."
Fu Weng felt bitter. He knew that his identity would definitely be despised.
Put it in the budget of those big movie directors, 800,000? It's nothing!
It's not even enough for them to buy hot searches!
Here, he will be strangled by the producer.
If he was more ruthless and confident, he would learn from Wei Fan, pay for the filming himself, and share the profits with Penguin Pictures.
But he is 40 years old, with old parents and young children, so he can't be ruthless.
At this age, the most fearful thing is accidents.
"By the way! The copyright of this book belongs to Qidian. How about you think of a way to get his copyright at a lower price?"
The producer showed a haughty look on his face: "Oh, if you had said it earlier, I would have just asked them directly! Wait!"
"Okay!"
The producer called the copyright department of Qidian: "I am Zhou Ke, the producer of Penguin Pictures. Please draft a contract for the copyright of the TV series "Rogue Rural Doctor" and transfer it to my name. The copyright fee is 200,000."
With Zhou Ke's qualifications and reputation, the copyright department of Qidian will ask him for a lot of things in the future.
Qidian Copyright Department: "80!"
"What 80?"
"The copyright fee is 800,000. This is the lowest standard. If you want to buy it, I suggest you act quickly. Several companies have already asked. If you hesitate for a while, we will raise the price again."
"I am Zhou Ke!"
"It's no use being a joker. The boss has set the price."
Zhou Ke: "."
"It's over! You're done. Wait for you!"
He will never buy the IP of Qidian Chinese Network again. Let them lose money!
Fu Weng received a message from Zhou Ke, saying that the copyright could not be obtained and asked him to find another script by himself.
Fu Weng: (╬￣皿￣)凸
Fu Weng was a little frustrated.
Then he received a strange call.
"Hello, I am the secretary of Yang Ming, the producer of Neiku Film and Television. May I ask. Do you have time recently? Are you interested in directing a rural-themed film and television work on our website?"
"Oh this!"
Pu Jie wrapped himself in his little quilt and didn't come out for a whole day.
He felt that he could no longer love.
Then he received a call from the Copyright Department the next day.
"Hello, Mr. Pu Dingle. The director named Fu Weng is willing to spend 800,000 to buy the copyright of your new book. If there is no problem on your side, you can sign the contract online directly."
Qidian Copyright Department said this with a boastful tone.
They work so hard to help authors make money, how about that!
Praise me now!
Pu Jie was silent for a moment.
"100!"
Anyway, I'm dead, and none of you backstabbing monsters can live well!
"What 100?"
"The copyright fee is 1 million!"
Copyright Department: "."
What stimulated this gentleman.
It's understandable that he didn't sell it for 300,000. After all, the adaptation value of this book is higher. The Copyright Department helped to raise it to a low price of 600,000, and finally negotiated 800,000 yuan for the TV drama copyright.
It's already very good!
Don't forget the fact that you have 1,000 average subscriptions!
"Why don't you think about it again? This price is quite suitable."
"I don't want to listen!"
Pu Jie hung up the phone. He just wanted to drag the world to destruction.
1 million is not much, the website will share half of it, tax will be deducted from the other part, and the system will save 99%.
Got more than 4,000 yuan.
"."
Thinking of this, Pu Jie felt even more uncomfortable.
In his previous life, he never thought that he would feel uncomfortable because of his messy writing.
Suddenly, he could understand Mr. Ma who regretted creating Ali.
"It turns out that he is also a person with a cheating system."
After tricking others, Pu Jie continued to huddle in his quilt and doubt his life.
When Fu Weng heard that the Qidian Copyright Department had raised the price, his nose almost became angry.
"Hey hey hey! Then you were talking about the 800,000 yuan copyright fee! Why has it changed again? Don't bully others!"
The copyright department said helplessly: "We Qidian did agree to sell at this price, but the author didn't agree. He refused to sign. What should we do? How about you learn from Wei Wei who bought the copyright from Pu Ding before? Anti-director, go talk to him yourself?"
"I'm fine."
Fu Weng first told Neiku.com producer Yang Chao the news.
Yang Chao had already expected it: "I knew Pu Ding and saw this rural trend."
Fu Weng: "???"
"Rural themes are an unstoppable trend. The author named Pu Ding must have seen this trend before he started the book, so he updated his book so quickly to show all the wonderful and rich stories. , thereby getting better prices in the copyright market.”
"In the article written by the outrageous cat, only half of Pu Ding's skills can be seen. He failed to realize that Pu Ding's book also laid out the film and television industry. How can an author of his level not consider it when writing a book? Adapting the market? It must be impossible! So the price of 1 million has already been included in his calculations.”
Fu Weng: "???"
"Director Fu, don't talk to Qidian. I'll let the company's IP operation team negotiate. In addition to the copyrights for the series, I also want the movie rights!"
"I saw a story about Ashu wandering around the village. The character was well-written and layered. It reminded me of when my grandfather and I lived in the village. There seemed to be such a fool in every village who had nothing to do and wandered around. , being teased by others. Because being with fools can give normal people a sense of superiority, people also like these fools. They give him cigarettes, invite him to drink, and jokingly call him Mr. So-and-so, Mr. So-and-so. But what about him? What about the one who became a fool? I think this story will be interesting to film.”
Yang Chao feels that in the whole book, the character Ashu touches him the most, and he may have the opportunity to put this character on the big screen in the future.
Fu Weng nodded unconsciously: "There is such a fool in our village."
Counting three generations up, they are all farmers. This sentence is true!
Fu Weng no longer cares about copyright matters.
After a heated exchange of words between Yang Chao and Qidian's copyright department, they finally won the film and TV series rights to "The Rogue Doctor" for a total price of 2 million yuan.
This kind of book, which is not particularly popular, is usually bought out. From now on, Neiku.com will take advantage of the content of this novel and film whatever it wants.
Of course, in terms of terms, there must be requirements for the word count and quality of Pu Jie's subsequent creations, and they must not be unfinished, etc.
After the negotiation is completed, Pu Jie will be notified.
Pu Jie: "Okay!"
There are actually 2 million!
Getting rich instantly is not just talk.
Pu Jie hates it!
I hate myself for not completing the task, otherwise all the money would have been spent!
The royalties are so great!
After several days, both parties refined the details of the contract several times and Pu Jie signed.
Copyright transfer completed.
Fu Weng sighed to Wei Wei: "It's not what you expected. Pu Ding's operation is so sharp! If I had known, I would have bought it for 600,000 yuan."
"Look, you didn't listen to me, you didn't seize the opportunity, and you were manipulated by Pu!"
"It doesn't matter, Neiku.com pays the bill anyway. If I have the chance, I really want to see your legendary junior brother. I feel like he is like a behind-the-scenes boss. He is dressed in black, hiding in the darkness, revealing his breathtaking eyes. Hitomi, freely controls people's hearts."
There will be more in a while.
