Chapter 425 Five million to buy movie rights?
"So what if you cheer very high? "Frozen Throne" defeated "Real Outsider" in terms of sales and evaluation. It is not wrong for Kod to win the award in the media, but Chen Ning, you should pay attention to the readers' voices. The most popular reader is naturally "Frozen Throne". Although the Nebula Award is the last choice for the judges' anonymous vote, you should also consider the degree of acceptance of readers."
"I have a cabinet ready at home to place the Nebula trophy." Although Su Shichen's words were plain, the content was definitely domineering.
"By the way, have you done what Chen Ning said to you last time?" Su Shichen asked.
I have been very busy recently, so Chen Ning has a lot of things to do, so I suddenly asked a little confused, but Chen Ning soon realized what Su Shichen said. "I am still preparing, but the TV station has already solved it. After all, Su Da, you are currently popular and it is very easy to find a live broadcast of the event planned by the TV station."
"But the matter of inviting Hollywood superstars to help has not been agreed. The few superstars I have come into contact with are either having problems with the schedule or the offer is too high." Chen Ning reported truthfully.
"Well, this matter must be done. As long as it is not too much, you can give in."
"Su Da, what event are you going to hold? You have created such a big formation." Chen Ning didn't expect it.
"It's not an event, but a concert." Su Shichen gestured with his hands and drew a large circle in the air. "I want to hold a grand concert, so I need a superstar to help."
"Concert? Su Da, you want to hold a concert." Chen Ning was shocked. Although "Those Years" became a popular Internet song for a while, and "Love Unbounded" was even more sung around the world, it is true that Su Shichen's voice belongs to the kind of public voice without characteristics, and has not been professionally trained. It is simply a playful nature.
But why did the tickets make it so grand? There are only two songs.
"Who said I was going to hold a concert myself? This venue was built for Wang Zimo. I arranged a role for Ma Jun and Liu Xixi in Hard's new film, but I can't favor one or the other."
After Su Shichen explained this, Chen Ning could understand it. That is to say, how could Su Shichen do such a stupid thing? Just thinking this in Chen Ning's mind, Su Shichen continued to say it.
He said, "I want to call Prince Mo a popular king called the new generation of the world and become a strategic weapon to conquer the United States."
"Uh..." The world's pop king, it is obvious that Chen Ning was choked by this goal. If a Chinese wants to become a world-wide pop king? This is completely impossible. Wang Zimo's popularity in China and even in Asia is very good. However, in that world's pop king, there are only a handful of popular kings recognized by the entire music scene by the whole world. None of them is a Chinese. Shouldn't he be more pragmatic?
Su Shichen suddenly asked, "Do you think it's impossible?"
Chen Ning was frightened and said, "Ah...well...no, it should be possible for me."
"I know it's hard for you to believe Chen Ning, but watch it. After that concert, Wang Zimo will be famous all over the world."
Chen Ning is so famous all over the world because of a concert? He is powerless to complain, but the name Su Shichen represents a miracle and does not want to undermine his confidence. He just echoes with it.
"Sulda Hollywood film companies have sent a contract to buy the copyright of the Superhero series for five million."
"Purchase the copyright of the entire superhero series for five million?" Su Shichen's pupils dilated slightly, looking very shocked. Chen Ning was also very surprised. There are many non-human protagonists in humorous comics, such as tigers, cats, and dogs. How to adapt this movie? Should I find someone to wear a mask and make-up to play a cat and dog? So there were few movies adapted from Hollywood comics, and even if there were, they could not reach such a high price. I really want to bear it for 5 million. The money came too quickly. Just when Chen Ning secretly envied him, Su Shichen scolded himself.
"Five million, he thought I was a fool, and just five million wanted to buy the copyright of the entire series of superheroes?" Su Shichen knew better than anyone about how popular superhero movies are in the world. Even a Hulk has more than five million copyrights.
"The entire superhero movie copyright. Not to mention five million, I won't sell it even if I add one zero at the end, two zeros or even three zeros!"
Chen Ning was stunned by the side. Adding one zero to five million is 50 million, and adding two to five million is 500 million. Adding three is 5 billion. Chen Ning felt that Su Shichen was a little crazy today. It was a concert before and now it is copyright.
Su Shichen is definitely not kidding. Five billion sounds a lot, but after careful calculation, he found that he still lost money. The Batman series (including the Nolan trilogy) movies made up 3.7 billion US dollars nationwide, the Spider-Man series 3.2 billion US dollars, and the Iron Man trilogy was also more than 2 billion US dollars.
The global box office of the Avengers is $1.5 billion, and the X-Men, Wolverine, Hulk, etc. are all movies with a box office of over 100 million. Of course, the box office does not mean the final profit, and the movie theaters are divided into these, but is the box office of all superhero movies not $20 billion?
"Why did I say that, then I refused?" Chen Ning felt a little painful.
This is called short-sightedness. The superhero series is a golden beetle that cannot be sold. Now the popularity is not that level, then it will be filmed ten years later, twenty years later, or even thirty years later.
Although Chen Ning felt that Su Shichen was a little second in the past day, he still did what he ordered. After rejecting a quotation of 5 million for a film company, he immediately quoted 8 million, which was 3 million in a short time. This shocked Chen Ning's heart, but Su Shichen was quite determined, and this matter became a big and small news.
After rejecting eight million, it did not rise any further. Although this film company saw the potential of superhero comics to become cinematic, it still couldn't bear to spend a lot of money.
Another thing is that after obtaining the authorization of Su Shichen and trying his best to satisfy the superstar in terms of price, I finally found a superstar in Chen Ning to help. The venue for the concert was also found, which can accommodate 30,000 people. Of course, this specification is a little small, but the most important thing is live TV.
The things Su Shichen explained were finally completed.

At 7 o'clock in the capital city time. Central News: "Recently, the inspirational novel "When Happiness Comes Knocking the Door" that is freely serialized on the Internet, Li Si set a good example in the sunshine, which allowed many people to stand up again. Although the Asian financial crisis was as fierce as a tiger, the country was seriously affected, many small companies declared bankruptcy and large companies laid off employees, but in the Party Central Committee..." The latter is something that praises the General Secretary. It can be omitted, the key is that there is a ray of sunshine in front and the name "When Happiness Comes Knocking the Door".
This is Central News. "When Happiness Comes Knocks on the Door" is serialized in Tieba, which is an online novel, and a ray of sunshine is an online writer. This is definitely the first time, an online novel. Online writers appear in a high-end place like Central News.
Of course, this first time cannot be considered Su Shichen. Well, in fact, this ray of sunshine is also his.
The official is to capture typical examples. The title of the number one inspirational novel in China "When Happiness Comes Knocks the Door" has become even louder. The name of sunshine has also appeared in the news of various provinces and cities, and the popularity has increased dramatically.
Baidu hot search terms, the first is a ray of sunshine. The second is "When Happiness Comes Knocks on the Door", which directly occupies the first and second.
The Internet Conscientious Author - a ray of light, full of positive energy, this is officially recognized.
"Does anyone know the contact information of a ray of sunshine? IQ or Weibo, I just ignore the private message of a ray of sunshine on the post bar. I am the editor-in-chief of the publisher. I want to publish "When Happiness Comes Knock on the Door" and offer a reward of 100,000 novel coins. Don't cheat me." There was a post like this one day in the most popular novel discussion forum. 100,000 novel coins are 1,000 soft sister coins. Just asking for a call, this can definitely be considered a high reward.
But this post was posted for more than three hours without a reply. Then the person who claimed to be the editor-in-chief of the publishing house was anxious, "Why is there no one? Is it because the reward is too small? In this way, as long as the contact information provided is valid, add 200,000 novel coins." Three thousand soft girl coins were exchanged for the phone number.
Now someone left a message [It’s not that you offer too little rewards. But we don’t know the phone number of the Sunshine God.] 2nd Floor
[Yes, as far as I know, some people seem to want to commit suicide, and they were dispelled by "Happiness". They asked for a lot of money to repay afterwards, but the Sunshine God did not reply, although they didn't know whether this matter was true or false.] 3rd Floor
[It seems to be necessary, but unfortunately no one knows this.] 4th floor
[The Sunshine God is a successful person and is not short of money, so it doesn't matter whether the book "Happiness" is published or not. I think you should give up this idea.] 5th floor
Reply to the 5th floor—[Do you know a ray of sunshine?] 6th floor
Reply to the 6th floor—[Don't recognize] 7th floor
Reply to the 7th floor—[How do you know that a ray of sunshine is a successful person if you don’t know?] 8th floor
Reply to the 8th floor—[I guessed this. Think about it, some of the contents of the book "Happiness" are like autobiography. Although it is not all true, at least some of them are true. Those who can write such works must be ordinary people.] 9th floor
Reply to the 9th floor—[Holmes possessed] 10th floor
Reply to the 9th floor—[Analysis Emperor, the analysis makes too reasonable.] 11th floor
...
Originally, it was just a post asking for contact information, but later it turned into a post that guessed the identity of a sunshine. One by one, the addition of the emperor was completely wrong. The editor-in-chief of a publishing house felt so heartbroken that he was crying without tears when he saw this result.
PS:ps: During the adjustment, it seems that there are too many contents left and can’t be solved by 100,000 words.
I originally had to modify four pictures and a total of ten chapters, but I slept for less than five hours in the past three days, and I felt like I was about to die suddenly and couldn't play anymore.
The kitten has to go and have a good rest. In addition, what I have thought of the ending has come completely in "gaochao".
That is, World War II is released...and then it's over...
Probably that's the case, it shouldn't be considered unfinished, right?
Chapter completed!
