China Entertainment: I have been a director since 05
Chapter 613: Liwuwa Clan, Famous in the Imperial Family
As for the number three that Director Guan suggested, everyone knew that it was the starting price of 3 billion.
To be honest, this price.
Low.
The copyright of a certain novel by Guang Chendong might be able to be sold for hundreds of millions.
Wu Laogou was not a man who had never seen money, so naturally he would not agree.
Guan Ling wanted to give subsequent negotiators room for negotiation, so naturally he would not quote the price too high.
As the saying goes, bargain high and pay low.
In the previous life, three years later, Tencent spent 5 billion to acquire Qidian Chinese Network.
In fact, 5 billion is also Guan Ling’s bottom line.
If you can avoid spending the money, you naturally don’t want to spend it.
This isn't 2015 after all.
There is still a three-year window period.
In Guan Ling's mind, 4 billion at most should be enough.
But the reason why Guan Ling set a three-month deadline was mainly because of the IPO. Before the end of the year, Guan Ling would invest in and buy a special effects company in Hollywood.
This is a supplementary agreement to the previous cooperation with Marvel.
In the previous life, Disney had set its sights on Lucasfilm, which was known as the world's largest special effects company.
In 2012, it acquired the team that created the special effects for "Terminator 40.5", "Jurassic Park" and "Transformers" for US$2 billion.
But under the Lucasfilm Corporation, it includes many copyrights and a special effects subsidiary.
Industrial maniac.
Guan Ling’s target is the Industrial Demon.
And with the box office performance of "Scarlet Witch", the profits of this movie may really cover half of the funds to purchase Industrial Monster.
If Lionsgate and Marvel give a portion of their shares, it will probably cost $1 billion to acquire it.
In fact, Guan Ling only needs to spend a few hundred million US dollars. For Guan Ling, it is just a drop in the bucket.
The main purpose of buying the company is not just to take over many special effects production jobs in Hollywood.
Instead, in addition to their daily work tasks, they are responsible for the training and learning of domestic personnel.
This can shorten the dormant development period of China's special effects industrialization by at least five years.
In the past, the real development of Chinese special effects should have been realized in "The Wandering Earth 2", and it was not until "Nezha 2" that the national strength of the animation company was utilized.
A transcendence was achieved.
The list of 138 all-domestic animation companies at that time was so tragic that it was truly embarrassing.
No wonder it ranked among the top five in global film history.
Therefore, although the starting point is important, it is not Guan Ling’s primary goal.
If Guan Ling cannot get the starting point at a price within his bottom line within three months, he will not wait.
He would initiate the listing process and set up a website himself.
Anyway, there are plenty of mainland and Hollywood copyrights available, so there will probably be no problem shooting for a few more years, or even more than ten years.
Moreover, with Guan Ling's current status in the entertainment industry, no matter which project it is, if he wants to participate in it, he will always be able to find an opportunity.
Guan Ling holds shares in Bona, which will be the most popular brand in the future.
Although it's a little less, it's still easy to pay a certain share.
As the most popular TV drama producer, although Shanying cannot represent all TV drama producers, as for Lingyun’s own TV dramas, Shanying has produced enough TV dramas and promoted enough people.
Many of the top stars in past and future lives are currently under Guan Ling.
It was a really exciting fight on the Internet.
It’s not certain who will lose!
It’s not that Guan Ling looks down on them.
In the upcoming era of traffic, what outsiders consider to be traffic may be nothing more than a flick of the hand in front of Guan Ling.
During this period, the most popular things on the Internet are actually the various awards, movies and controversies related to Guan Ling.
There is even news that "The Voice of China", a phenomenal show that is popular all over China, will hold its finals at the 9-seat Stadium in Shanghai on September 26th of this month.
None of them can surpass Guan Ling.
In terms of popularity, Guan Ling can easily be the best among contemporary celebrities.
If Guan Ling wants to praise someone, he can easily praise him to the sky.
The copyrights of "The Three-Body Problem", "Ghost Blows Out the Light", "Detective Dee Series", screenwriter Qian Yanqiu, "Nirvana in Fire", "The Disguiser", and the books of Misty Theater are now basically in Guan Ling's hands.
Guan Ling is also currently filming "My Love from the Star" and "Unnatural Death".
Later, TV series such as "Goblin", "Signal", and "Descendants of the Sun" were also processed.
Japan and South Korea may be able to force out some better movies or TV series, but it is highly likely that they will not be able to suppress Guan Ling.
And as the restriction order on Korean culture came out.
Guan Ling will surely become the king of the mainland entertainment market.
all-round.
He is the new emperor of the entertainment industry.
However, this concept is not yet so concrete in Wu Laogou's mind.
Even some movie stars, directors, and many TV drama actors are not aware of this.
……
After all, Wu Laogou and others have been in the martial arts world for more than ten years. Although Guan Ling's words are unpleasant to the ear, the underlying logic is clear.
His demands, his price assessment for the starting point, and detailed measures for specific negotiations.
It was all finalized in a few short sentences.
It's just the price, we still need to discuss it.
It was just the dull smile on Guan Ling’s face.
It made him feel shocked.
The alarm bells are ringing in my heart!
"Director Guan said that he won't give me too much time. When the time is up, what will Director Guan do?"
The more Wu Laogou thought about it, the more frightened it became. He began to imagine things, and he couldn't help but think so in his mind.
"Should we open a new website? Or should we cooperate with Qidian's rivals to suppress Qidian?"
No matter which one it is.
It is a fatal blow to the starting point!
Several times, Wu Laogou's lips moved.
I want to say something.
But he didn't dare to open his mouth.
Because Guan Ling didn't speak.
When spring comes, I don’t speak first.
Which insect dares to make a sound? !
The current scene is more like this.
Old Dog Wu raised his head in fear several times, his eyebrows wrinkled, but he said nothing.
His head was buzzing at this time.
I didn't know what to say for a moment.
He was first dissatisfied with the price.
Secondly, I didn’t expect Director Guan to have such a huge business empire.
And if you just look at this map.
There is indeed only one source missing.
In addition to what Guan Ling said before about wanting to get something, we must work hard to get it.
How could Wu Laogou not panic? !
"By the way, I might as well talk to Mr. Wu about more details."
Guan Ling continued to put pressure on Wu Laogou.
"Director Guan, please speak."
"For example, I had already obtained the copyrights of Ghost Blows Out the Light and The Great Ruler. I was ahead of the starting point in this regard."
Guan Ling first brought up a fact that Er Wu was reluctant to face.
"I have enough strength to turn these contents into movies. But Qidian can't. Qidian can only watch these copyrights helplessly. Even if they are sold, there is no possibility of any revenue.
But I can.
I can convert these into box office revenue, providing Qidian with a steady stream of income, thereby helping Qidian develop further and achieving a virtuous cycle.
Take "The Great Ruler" for example.
Guan Ling paused. Chen Dong was stunned.
"Is it finally my turn?"
Chen Dong had been afraid to breathe before. Although he had already reached the top in the field of online novels, he still felt the oppressive feeling when facing Guan Ling.
Over there, Guan Ling's voice was still slowly explaining.
“I’m a fan of The Great Ruler, so I know how dramatic this oriental fantasy is and how grand its historical perspective is.
Just the beginning, when Ye Fan first entered Beidou and the nine dragons pulled the coffin to shock the world, is enough to make a movie more interesting than The Lord of the Rings. "
Chen Dong didn't expect that Guan Ling was also a fan of "The Great Ruler", and felt a little proud for a moment.
And Guan Ling's voice continued.
“Ye Fan, as an ordinary person on Earth, was accidentally involved in the Nine Dragons Coffin Incident and was brought into the Big Dipper Star Region, which started his journey of cultivating immortals.
The nine dragons pulled the coffin across the void and descended upon the Big Dipper. The momentum was so huge that it shocked people, and it also foreshadowed Ye Fan's extraordinary destiny.
During this period, the extra people in Tianyuan Star, Leiyin Temple, and Crocodile King kept dying, all the way to the beginning of the Ancient Forbidden Land.
The entire plot happens to include ancient Chinese culture, the grand history of the universe, suspense, and fantasy beasts. Each of them is a very suitable dramatic turning point, and this entire plot will become the prologue of the movie world of "The Great Ruler". "
Guan Ling hadn't finished speaking.
Chen Dong's breathing had become unusually heavy.
As an author, who doesn’t want to see his or her work adapted to the big screen?
Especially what Guan Ling said, it coincided with his thoughts.
When I was writing the novel "The Great Ruler" at the beginning, I wrote the early stage in such detail instead of directly setting it to travel to the Big Dipper star region.
The purpose is to enhance the sense of immersion, and the past and present lives of the ruthless emperor and the protagonist are laid out from the very beginning.
But in addition to these, there is one more thing, which is that he really hopes that someone can bring his work to the screen.
So in the first hundred chapters.
He has many characters and few fantasy events.
The practitioner was given enough time to work on the first film, and after that, he could help perfect most of the famous scenes in subsequent films.
For example, the ancient holy body showed its power for the first time and overwhelmed the younger generation of the Ji family. Ye Fan became famous in one battle, which also laid the groundwork for the feud with the Ji family.
Or maybe Ye Fan fought against the Holy Son of Yaoguang, a duel of holy bodies. The two used all their skills, fighting to the point of heaven and earth collapsing, and in the end Ye Fan won with a slight advantage, establishing his dominant position among the younger generation.
Or the ruthless emperor made a shocking appearance and killed the ancient royal family with one palm. As one of the most mysterious and powerful beings in "The Great Ruler", every appearance of the ruthless emperor shocked people. When Ye Fan was in danger, the ruthless emperor killed the ancient royal family with one palm and saved Ye Fan, showing his invincibility, which also made people full of awe for this legendary figure.
There is also Ye Fan who broke into the ancient forbidden land, survived a narrow escape, and met the ruthless emperor. Ye Fan fought against the Immortal Emperor, a duel that spanned the long river of time. The two fought from the past to the future, breaking the long river of time. In the end, Ye Fan suppressed the Immortal Emperor with an invincible posture, ending this feud that spanned eternity.
As well as Ye Fan's battle against the dark turmoil, protecting all living beings, sacrificing his life for justice, and sealing the turmoil, it shows Ye Fan's fearless spirit and heroic spirit of sacrificing his life for justice. Ye Fan has gone through the trials of the mortal world, and finally transcended the world, achieved the status of an immortal, and became an eternal and immortal existence. This scene shows Ye Fan's pursuit of Taoism and his perception of life, and also draws a perfect end to his magnificent life.
Until the end, the ruthless emperor was resurrected and fought side by side with Ye Fan, finally ending the source of darkness and returning peace to the world. This scene showed the ruthless emperor's invincibility and his deep friendship with Ye Fan, and also drew a perfect end to the story of "The Great Ruler".
In the meantime, more than ten movies can be made.
If anyone stood in front of Chen Dong at this moment and said they wanted to make a movie.
Chen Dong might sneer at it.
You will also feel that your child is being abused.
But the person in front of him was Guan Ling.
Guan Ling is the number one director in China and one of the top three directors in the world.
Guan Ling has no shortage of funds. He has companies in mainland China and Hollywood, and has multi-channel distribution rights.
It’s Guan Ling who just said that he wants to buy a special effects company in Hollywood.
At this moment, Chen Dong's expression was clearer than ever.
Although his face was flushed.
But he felt that this was not an ominous sign for the red hair at all.
But it’s too auspicious!
"Director Guan, if you really want to shoot, I am willing to help you work hard on the script."
Chen Dong couldn't help but said, "I don't even need any money."
He is already financially free.
But the thought that his work might be made into a movie by Guan Ling and take the world by storm.
Chen Dong's whole body was shaking with excitement.
Does money matter?!
He even emphasized the big characters that meant great effort.
You can see how excited he is.
At this moment, although the second Wu looked normal, his heart was already in turmoil.
Not to mention the difficulty and funds required to shoot a fantasy movie.
There are perhaps only one or two companies in the whole of China that can make such a film.
And Guan Ling is definitely the most capable one.
But what made Er Wu even more panicked was.
These are some of the things reflected behind Chen Dong's attitude towards this matter.
"Making a movie is secondary. If Guan Ling uses this as a condition and really sets up a new website, will Chen Dong run away?"
The two looked at each other and looked at each other.
Although no words were spoken, both of them saw fear in each other's eyes.
They finally understood why Guan Ling wanted Chen Dong to come along.
Deterrence!
The director’s appeal to the author is huge!
Especially for such famous platinum authors.
They can make a lot of money just by writing casually.
However, there are very few opportunities for their works to be distributed globally.
As the saying goes, the crops grown in the Wuwa Valley are famous even among the imperial families.
Who doesn’t want to see their work sell well all over the world? ?
At this moment, Er Wu suddenly realized something.
Guan Ling is a big director with big capital.
Just a little reveal.
To set up an online literature site, Chen Dong might have to run away on a train overnight.
Just like four years ago.
This time, the damage to the starting point will be even greater.
Maybe the top brass was caught in one fell swoop...
All of a sudden.
Fear swept through me.
Old Dog Wu actually got goose bumps all over his body.
…………
In the house,
Guan Ling poured himself a cup of tea.
It was quiet.
At this moment, Wu Laogou's body was completely tense.
Wu Binglin looked worried.
Chen Dong was the most excited, with his face full of red hair.
Only Guan Ling was extremely indifferent. Although he did not look down on the three people, he just stared into their eyes silently.
Seems to be waiting for their final decision.
“In fact, those works are also my children.”
Wu Laogou spoke calmly.
"I also hope that these contents can become global hits under the brilliant writing of Director Guan, just like Harry Potter.
but,
Three billion is not enough.
And I don’t seem to have any special interests.”
Wu Laogou's words were very straightforward.
Not enough benefits.
Guan Ling smiled, and smiled happily.
"In that case, Mr. Guan, let's celebrate our pleasant cooperation.
As for what you want, our negotiators will give you a result that satisfies both parties."
Old Dog Wu finally relaxed his torso.
Sitting lazily on the sofa.
"Pleasant to work with."
When these four words were spoken,
Wu Laogou suddenly felt that
I was already covered in cold sweat. (End of this chapter)
