Chapter 401 selling copyright
Tiger Qiu is so powerful that Tian Shao feels sticky and uncomfortable even if he sits still. Relatively speaking, she is fine, for someone like Pang Hui who is afraid of heat is covered in sweat.
Pang Hui fanned himself with a cattail fan, and muttered, "I heard that the offices of the machinery factory and the transportation company have installed electric fans. When do you think our factory will be able to install electric fans?"
It was so hot that he went to take a bath in the river every day after get off work.
Meng Yang jokingly said: "Wait until the electric fan is installed in the factory, who knows that the year of the monkey is like a horse and a month? It's better for us to chip in and buy one ourselves."
After the two sets of fund-raising houses in the factory were built, the generation in front of Director Liang was removed. After officially becoming the director of the factory, there are no three fires for new officials to take office, and they still follow the steps as before. But this is also normal. There is no reform and opening up yet, so it is enough to ensure the stability and normal production of the factory. Others do too much, but cause trouble.
Pang Hui thought this proposal was very good: "Accountant Tian, Accountant Ding, and Accountant An, let's raise money to buy two electric fans! In this way, it won't be so hot."
Ding Shaoqiu shook his head and said: "No need, it will get cold soon, just boil it for a while."
His wife has no job and has two children. In addition, he has to take care of two younger brothers who are studying. On weekdays, he wished he could spend every penny in half, so he was not willing to raise money to buy an electric fan.
Pang Hui looked at Tian Shao: "Accountant Tian, what do you say?"
Tian Shao answered him in three words: "I'm not hot."
Raising money to buy an electric fan, thank goodness he could figure it out. Buying this electric fan not only slaps the leader in the face, but also makes other departments feel that they are rich and powerful. After being stolen, Tian Shao knew that it was still safe to keep a low profile here.
Pang Hui was a little disappointed.
At this time, the eldest sister in the office came over and said, "Accountant Tian, I have your phone number, which is from the provincial newspaper office. Hurry up and answer it, the phone has not been hung up yet."
Hearing that the call was not hung up, Tian Shao trotted over.
Picking up the phone and hearing Gu Hongxue's voice, Tian Shao asked, "Teacher Gu, what's the matter?"
"Little Hero Ayong" ended in May, and she went to the provincial capital half a month ago to collect the manuscript fee. Because there are similar books, sales have dropped sharply in the past few months, from five or six hundred per month in the peak period to seven or eighty. However, the income from this book exceeded Tian Shao's expectations, and she was already very satisfied with such a result.
Gu Hongxue said excitedly: "Tian Shao, Forty-Nine City Studio has taken a fancy to your novel and wants to make it into a movie. Tian Shao, you come to the provincial capital tomorrow, let's talk to them together."
What to talk about, of course, is to talk about the price. In fact, according to the idea of the publishing house's president Pang, it would be fine to be given away for free by the studio's leaders. After all, it is also his political achievement to make this book into a movie. It's just that when they signed the contract on that day, they only had the priority to publish the rights, and Tian Shao had other rights in his own hands.
Tian Shao was also very surprised. She didn't expect to be spotted by the leader of the studio. She smiled and said, "Okay, I'll come tomorrow."
Putting down the phone, the elder sister asked, "Tian Shao, what is the urgent matter that requires you to go tomorrow?"
This matter has not yet been decided, Tian Shao will not tell the outside world, otherwise he will be ridiculed by those people: "There is a small problem with my book, I have to solve it myself. Sister Huang, please."
Sister Huang said with a smile: "What's the trouble, you should hurry up!"
Tian Shao went to find He Guoqing after returning to the office. The reason was the same as what he said just now: "The other side hopes that I will go there tomorrow. Section Chief, I will ask for two days off."
He Guoqing immediately agreed.
Li Aihua knew that Tian Shao was going to the provincial capital, so he went home at night and told Zhao Kang about it: "Xiao Shao said that there is something wrong with the book, but what could happen if the book is finished? I think it should be something else .”
Zhao Kang said helplessly: "The publishing house is a formal unit, so how can we tie her up? You, don't worry about it."
Li Aihua said angrily: "What do you know? I'm not afraid that there will be some taboos in the book. Will Tian Shao be detained again? I was scared out of my wits last time. This time she went to me alone. Don't worry."
Once bitten by a snake for ten years, she was afraid of well ropes, and that incident cast a great shadow on her.
Since she was pregnant, she not only likes to worry, but also loves to think wildly. But after a few months, Zhao Kang also has experience: "If you are worried, we will go there tomorrow morning and ask Tian Shao to accompany his cousin."
Li Aihua thought it was a good idea, but Tian Shao had already left by the next day.
Tian Shao caught the early bus, and the journey was smooth, so he arrived at the publishing house at four o'clock in the afternoon. It wasn't until she got there that she realized that the people from the studio were waiting for her. It turns out that this time, people are determined to win this book.
Gu Hongxue said: "Xiao Shao, the other party is very sincere and is willing to pay 1,200 yuan to buy the copyright of "Little Hero A Yong". Xiao Shao, the money is not much, but as long as it can be made into a movie, it can give You have brought many benefits."
Tian Shao naturally understands that as long as the novel is adapted into a movie, it will not only increase his fame, but also make a bright mark on his resume. After all, those who adapt novels to movies are famous experts, and she has the confidence to go out with this experience.
Tian Shao smiled and said: "Teacher, don't worry, we will talk about it when we meet."
The two people from the studio are now in the guest house, and only one of them was there when they arrived. This man looked about forty, with a short shaved head, wearing gray short sleeves, and looked very serious.
Yu Zhou knew that the author of "Little Hero A Yong" was very young, but he was still surprised when he saw Tian Shao. This girl is not only young, but also very beautiful. She is really a combination of talent and beauty.
After the introduction, Yu Zhou said directly: "Comrade Tian, I really like your "Little Hero A Yong". This book is lively and interesting. If it is adapted into a movie, I believe many people will like it."
Tian Shao said that it was an honor for her to be seen by the studio, and then asked the price.
"One thousand and two."
Tian Shao didn't speak, but fell into deep thought.
Yu Zhou thought that she was not satisfied with the price when he saw it, and after pondering for a moment, he said, "Comrade Tian, I will give you another three hundred."
Seeing that Tian Shao was still silent, Yu Zhou said: "Comrade Tian, 1500 is the highest price set by the leader. I can't make a decision if it exceeds this price. I can only go back and report to the leader first, and we can discuss it after the leader agrees."
Tian Shao knows that there are currently eight studios in the country, all of which are state-owned. Sijiucheng paid 1,200 yuan for the copyright fee, and if she didn't sell the other companies, she wouldn't come to negotiate. So the price is non-negotiable. However, she was not prepared to bargain at the beginning, and it would be nothing more than a few hundred yuan more to negotiate. She was just thinking about other things.
Seeing that Tian Shao didn't speak, Gu Hongxue was afraid that she would refuse, so she hurriedly got up and said to Yu Zhou, "Director Yu, I'll take Xiao Tian out to talk."
Yu Zhou understood that Gu Hongxue was going to persuade Tian Shao, so he nodded with a smile, "Yes."
