Hollywood starts with animation

Regarding the North American production rights for the variety show "Millionaire", Zhu Ke and Cindy's ITV broadcast company, after a full week of repeated negotiations up to 9 times, finally reached an agreement.

Agreement:

One: Golden Dawn Entertainment Group paid a one-time payment of 6 million pounds to obtain the North American production copyright of "Millionaire" from ITV;

Two: The authorization period is 5 years, and the UPN TV network, a subsidiary of Golden Dawn Entertainment Group, will transfer 15% of the net profit to the British ITV Broadcasting Corporation for each quarter's broadcast revenue;

Three: The 15% net profit share paid to ITV by North American "Millionaire" every quarter. If it does not reach £500, the shortfall will need to be supplemented by Jinshuguang Entertainment Group itself;

...

As for other terms, such as liquidated damages, supplementary explanations and other legal terms, up to 30,000 words.

After signing the contract, Zhu Ke criticized ITV for its black heart more than once.

Not to mention that Zhuke only paid 6 million pounds to get the North American copyright of "Millionaire". It seems that it is not as good as the 20 million pounds copyright purchase price of "Britain's Got Talent" that Zhuke sold to ITV.

but......

How treacherous ITV company!!

They also have a minimum of 500 pounds of license for each season of the North American "Millionaire". After 5 years, according to the broadcast time of one season of the year, they will get an additional 25 million pounds from Zucker. capital.

That adds up to 31 million pounds!

Moreover, this is the lowest price!

Others don't know the profitability of "Millionaire". As a traverser, Zhu Ke knows a lot.Even though it is not the top variety show, it is also a first-class variety show, and its profitability is definitely not low.Therefore, ITV vampires get a 15% net profit share, and every quarter is definitely not less than 10 million pounds.

"Damn~ I'm still too kind!"

Zhu Ke kept cursing in his heart: "When I first sold the copyright of "Talent Show", I thought I had made a lot of money, but now it seems that I am a fucking fool!"

In fact, it's not all to blame Zhu Ke for not being shrewd, it's that this line of water is too deep!

Well, let alone Zhu Ke, even ten Zhu Ke tied together is not enough for ITV. In the field of TV variety shows, they are professional.

"Boss, things are done, when will we leave for Los Angeles?" Zhao Wushuang asked.

Hearing this, Zhu Ke did not answer immediately.

But started thinking.

My purpose in coming to the UK seems to be mainly to see my little girlfriend Lima.

During the negotiation, Zhuke used two days to get along with her.

However, the modeling industry is too busy.She has already left the UK and went to France to receive a new round of T-training. The time is not short. It is said that it lasts as long as 3 months.Not only that, after finishing the training in France, I have to go to Milan, Italy, and start trying out the fashion week stage performances. It is said that it will take two months.

Models, no matter they become famous, they have to run around, so there is no extra personal time.

As for the second purpose of coming to the UK, of course it was for God Nolan.

Nolan is not doing well right now, but Zhuke, who is familiar with his future achievements, of course must firmly grasp it.You know, a well-known and capable director has a huge boost for a small and medium-sized film company.

Think about the Wayne brothers of Miramax, isn't it just because they invested in Quentin in advance, they can earn a lot of dollar wealth from Hollywood every year!

"what?"

Just when Zhu Ke was planning to return to Los Angeles, he suddenly thought of the film and television rights of "Harry Potter"!

"Zhao Wushuang, you can call Cindy later and ask him to help find someone, uh... it's not going to happen, let's spend our own money to find a research company."

After Zhu Ke finished speaking, the bodyguard Zhao Wushuang was immediately confused.

Why do you need Cindy to help you find someone first?

Later, I decided to find someone from a research company?

"Haha~!"

Zhuke glanced out the window and murmured: "Cindy, what a shrewd and cunning guy! If I ask him to help find the author of "Harry Potter", j.k. Rowling, maybe the copyright He was cut off by him."

But Zhuke was careless, because the benefits involved in "Harry Potter" are too great!

In terms of movie box office, book sales, peripheral product licensing, etc., it has built a market of more than 100 billion US dollars!

Just like Lao Guo said in the cross talk: "Sake is a red face, and money is touching. Silver is cold, and it is hot in the hand. Since ancient times, money has moved people's hearts most."

Therefore, no matter how cautious Zhu Ke is, it is not exaggerated!

.......

The process of entrusting a survey company to find the author of "Harry Potter" J.K. Rowling was very smooth.

Haha, as long as the money is in place, let alone looking for an ordinary person, just look for those important criminals wanted by various countries, and they can also find it.

This is the charm of money!

Scotland, Edinburgh area.

In an old and backward residential area, Zhu Ke and his team found Rowling's current residence.

"Hello, Ms. Rowling, this is Wald Zucker. The person who phoned you yesterday is my personal lawyer."

While Zhu Ke was talking, he pointed at lawyer Zhang Wei.

"Very happy to meet all of you!"

Rowling was very excited and happy to welcome Zhu Ke and others into the house.After all, yesterday, Zhang Wei said on the phone that he wanted to buy the film and television rights of "Harry Potter".

"Sorry, the house is a bit small."

After Rowling ushered in Zhu Ke and others, she found that Zhu Ke and his party could not sit down all, and she couldn't help but feel embarrassed.

"It doesn't matter, we stand and say the same." Nolan and Zhang Wei said they didn't mind.

Zhuke looked around and found that the house was indeed small.

The total area is estimated to be less than 50 square meters, and the living room is even smaller.

Of course, Zhu Ke also roughly understands Rowling's current situation.

She has been divorced for many years and still has a 4-year-old daughter. She has no formal job and is living hard on receiving a weekly government relief fund of £103.5.

Rowling introduced her daughter who was sitting on the sofa watching TV and said, "This is my daughter Jessica."

Her daughter Jessica, although only 4 years old, was not afraid of a few strangers who suddenly visited, watching TV shows intently.

Coincidentally, what I was watching was "Teletubbies".

"Ms. Rowling, Mr. Wald is my boss, and he is also the boss of a Hollywood film company. I wonder if you have watched "Lola Run", "Fruit Hard Candy", "Fatal Corner", " Movies such as Juno? They are all produced and distributed by my boss' company." Zhang Wei took the lead to introduce.

"Uh......"

Rowling was even more embarrassed when she heard this, "Sorry, you have seen my life. In recent years, I have not had time to pay attention to movies."

Relying on government relief funds, where can she have extra money to watch movies?

Zhang Wei didn't mind, and said: "Ms. Rowling, the original copyright of "Teletubbies" that your daughter watched came from my boss.

"Eh? You mean "Teletubbies" comes from Mr. Wald? Oh my God!"

Obviously, Rowling was even more shocked at this moment.

Speaking of this, it means that Zhu Ke and others are not liars.It also means that she can sell the copyright.

The next time, it is about the "Harry Potter" related copyright issues negotiations.

Regarding the content of the contract, Zhu Ke asked Zhang Weiwei to formulate extremely rigorous and detailed. Every clause and every clause was extremely detailed, and even many supplementary explanations were added to prevent possible occurrences as much as possible. Loopholes.

Bodyguard Zhao Wushuang even said that Zhu Ke was too cautious.

But Zhuke doesn't think so!

Rowling is a very greedy woman!

Don't look at her very poor now, but once "Harry Potter" starts to become popular, Zhuke has no doubt that she will tear up the contract in the first place, and the lion opens his mouth to ask for more benefits.

In the original time and space, she is such a woman who makes Hollywood giant Time Warner a headache!
