The King of Crossover Entertainment.

Chapter 196 0196, Super Fan (2)

"Crazy, you're a good negotiator." Wang Defa glanced at the three foreigners and said, "This price is consistent with the estimate of the Operations Department, but... I see that Mike is very willing to purchase the online drama and film adaptation rights of Release the Witch. Do you want to increase the price a little bit?"

Yunfeng replied: "I just listened to their conversation. This price is their bottom price. If we raise it any higher, I think it will be difficult to reach a deal."

Wang De was stunned and asked: "You...can understand what they are saying?"

Yunfeng nodded and said, "I understand a little English and got the general idea."

"You're awesome." Wang Defa sighed secretly, his good brother's "academic nerd" was no joke.

Yunfeng's mouth curved slightly, and he said, "I personally think it can be sold, but you are the general manager, so you have to make the final decision."

Wang Defa crossed his arms over his chest and said thoughtfully, "Then let's sell it. This is the first order since our company was founded. Let's hope it's auspicious and a good start."

"Yeah." Yunfeng had no objection.

In fact, there are not many successful examples of online novels being adapted into film and television on Blue Star, so the return on investment cannot be accurately predicted. There are risks, uncertainties and unknowns.

The success of the web dramas adapted from the two novels "The Dart Man" and "Cat's Eye" depends on many factors, such as the director's directing skills, the screenwriter's ability to adapt the novels, and the fit between the actors and the roles. In fact, it has no reference value.

If you are a copyright middleman, you will definitely not consider any profit sharing. What you want is the real money in your pocket.

But copyright operation is different. It is not a one-time deal, but requires consideration of long-term benefits.

Wang Defa walked over, smiling, and said, "Your company is second to none in Europe. I'm very happy to be able to work with you. I think the adaptation of Release the Witch will be a success."

However, after hearing this, Acrylic and Arabella looked at each other.

Wang Defa’s smile froze.

Yunfeng frowned slightly. Have they changed their minds?

Mike explained: "'Second to none' means 'Number one'."

Yunfeng and Wang Defa looked at each other and smiled. It turned out that they didn't understand the meaning of the idiom "second to none".

Alec said embarrassedly: "Oh, Mr. Wang, Mr. Yun, I'm really sorry, our Chinese level is not very good."

Arabella also smiled apologetically.

Wang Defa smiled and said, "It's okay. I'll go draft the contract now. You guys can chat for a while."

After saying that, he turned and left the meeting room.

Mike immediately started chatting with Yunfeng about the plot of Release That Witch: "Mr. Yun, what exactly did you mean by 'a witch farming story, continuing farming to the end' in the introduction? I read the latest chapters, but I didn't see any farming plots."

Yunfeng smiled and said, "The word 'farming' originally came from the poem 'On the way to Nanfeng in the year of Guimao, I heard that the capital had fallen. I sent a letter to the powerful scholar You Han Youshen'. 'Farming is not a good year, and fame is not a good time.' The modern word 'farming' first appeared in strategy games. Players aim to 'build high walls, store up food, and slowly claim the throne.' They protect their own territory and develop it vigorously. In the later stage, they begin to conquer other players to expand their power."

Seeing Mike nodding as if he understood, he continued, "Agricultural literature is a novel written on this basis. It refers to the process of the protagonist establishing his own base and network, and gradually developing the agricultural, economic, military, and political systems. It focuses on economic construction, technological development, and internal affairs management, and uses economic and technological advantages to defeat opponents. During this period, the protagonist will not have obvious conflicts or wars with other forces, and will conquer the world after becoming strong."

After listening to this, Mike suddenly said, "So that's how it is."

Acrylic and Arabella are fans of J.K.'s books, but they have never read "Let Go of That Witch" because they heard from their friends, colleagues and some local micro-circle celebrities that it is far inferior to the "Magic World" series.

But after listening to Yunfeng's explanation of farming literature, which was a type of novel they had never heard of, they suddenly became curious about the novel "Release the Witch".

Then, Mike asked, "What is the so-called secret at Roland and Anna's wedding?"

Yunfeng smiled mysteriously and said, "Mr. Mike, the excitement of a novel lies in the unknown plot waiting for us to explore, discover, and feel, isn't it?"

He usually wouldn't give out spoilers or anything like that.

Mike thought for a moment, then nodded in agreement.

Next, they talked about fighting against Zero, Gray Castle, and Fertile Plains...

Yunfeng only now realized that Mike was more than just a book fan, but a true fan of the novel "Release the Witch".

Acrylic and Arabella on the side were listening with great interest.

Mortars hit the knights...

Ashes' self-destruction...

Absolutely smooth ground + metal frenzy...

What are these?
Just hearing the combination of witches + technology is already very interesting.

Chris and Arabella both thought that when they returned, they would definitely take some time to read the novel "Let Go of the Witch".

After a while, Wang Defa came in with the contract and authorization letter. After both parties signed the contract, they shook hands with each other.

"Pleasant to work with."

"Pleasant to work with."

……

Wang Defa said politely: "Mr. Mike, Mr. Alec, Ms. Arabella, it's noon now, why don't you have a simple meal together."

Mike quickly asked, "Is Mr. Yun coming too?"

Wang Defa replied: "That's natural."

Yunfeng smiled and nodded.

But, this Mike is too enthusiastic...

----

The midday sun became stronger and stronger.

Walking on the tree-lined avenue, rays of sunlight shine through the gaps between the leaves, casting spotted shadows.

Wang Defa shook his head and said, "Madman, I think the reason why we were able to close this deal so quickly is entirely because of you. Just now in the restaurant, that Mike was..."

Yunfeng raised his eyebrows and interrupted, "Stop, stop."

Wang Defa laughed and said, "It's just that I was a little enthusiastic. Besides, I'm not a woman, so I'm not afraid of my sister-in-law misunderstanding me."

Yunfeng glared at him and said unhappily, "Men are the ones who are scary."

“Hahahaha…” Wang Defa laughed so hard that he fell backwards. “Crazy, you want to make me laugh to death.”

Yunfeng: “…”

Is it that funny?

Yunfeng pouted and asked, "Are you going to the company or home?"

Wang Defa took a few breaths and said, "Go to the company. There are several copyright operation plans that need to be finalized."

Then he sighed and said, "I'm only a sophomore, and I have to bear the maturity and handsomeness that I shouldn't have at my age. I'm so tired."

Yunfeng smiled mischievously and said, "Yes, there are still singles."

Wang Defa rolled up his sleeves and said angrily, "Play is play, joke is joke, but don't make fun of your brother's singleness."

Yunfeng knew what he was going to do next, so he quickly walked a few steps to the side and changed the subject, "Would you like to come to my house for dinner tonight?"

Wang Defa replied: "Of course, when you come back, Godmother will definitely cook a big table of delicious dishes."

When they reached the intersection, they went their separate ways.

Yunfeng had just returned home when he received another WeChat message from Wang Defa.

"Crazy, go check out the book review section for your book Release That Witch. There's a surprise!"

Release that witch?
Book review section?
Any surprises?
Yunfeng opened the Panda Chinese App on his mobile phone and entered the book review section of "Release that Witch".

The title of the top comment is: The cross-border superstar is young and handsome in real life!

This……

Yunfeng quickly clicked in.

"I'm very happy today. I met my idol and also got the authorization for the web series and movie of Release that Witch..."

Is this from Mike?

After thinking about it, it is not difficult to understand that the purpose of doing this is probably to build momentum for the web drama and movie adaptations of "Release that Witch".

But isn't this a little early?
However, when Yunfeng saw the ID that posted this comment, he was stunned.

"this is not……"
