At yesterday's celebration banquet, Lin Shu gave Wang Kai and Zhang Songwen the time to consider this week.

If after a week, the other party fails to make a choice that satisfies Lin Shu, then he will have to consider other more suitable people for the permanent role of Watson.

The so-called choice will never affect future cooperation, which is just a nice word. Lin Shu can say this, but if they believe it, they will really be fools.

This time is almost enough for the script review and project approval. Instead of running back to Shanghai now and then back when the time comes, it is better to stay in the capital for one more week.

……

The next day, Lin Shu found a company that specialized in helping others purchase and sell copyrights.

After finishing the phone call with Jiang Tao yesterday, Lin Shu made a clear plan for his future. The first step is to stock up on copyrights for time travellers!

It can be said that the current film and television copyrights are still in the barbaric era. Except for the copyrights of a small number of physical books, which are relatively expensive, the copyrights of others, such as online articles and science fiction novels, are priced at cabbage prices.

In a few years, the price of these copyrights will double several times, so in order to seize the opportunity, Lin Shu decided to buy up as many big IPs as he could remember.

If he had to buy these big IPs one by one, it would be a waste of time and energy. In order to achieve his goal as soon as possible, Lin Shu could only choose to find a professional organization to help purchase them.

After arriving at this company, Lin Shu directly requested that he need to purchase the copyright, and the other party also sent a marketing director named Zhang to receive him.

"Mr. Lin, you just told the front desk that you wanted to purchase the copyrights of a batch of literary works, right?"

Director Zhang adjusted his glasses as he spoke. For their industry, Lin Shu's needs are big customers, so they must be treated with caution.

Lin Shu observed the other party's small movements and silently conducted a professional evaluation test on him.

"Director Zhang, I would like to know about your services and charging model."

"Our service model is that you explain to us the copyright you need to purchase, and then we will evaluate its price. If the price is right, we will sign an agency copyright purchase agreement. This agreement will indicate

, we just purchase it on your behalf, you are the copyright owner."

Lin Shu nodded understandingly, then raised his hand to signal the other party to continue.

"As for the charging model, we will draw a commission on the total amount of the copyright purchased by the customer. If we purchase the copyright at a price acceptable to the customer, the commission will be 10% of the total amount."

"What does this acceptable price mean?"

"This price refers to the market price of the copyright given by us. If the customer accepts it, we will discuss it. However, authors are often overly optimistic about their works, so there will be a certain amount of room for a premium during the purchase process.

”

Lin Shu didn't expect that there were so many things in it, but after thinking about it, it was normal. After all, the sale and purchase were all negotiated, and it was reasonable for the price to fluctuate.

"Then what will you do with this premium space?"

"If it exceeds the agreed price, the commission will be directly reduced by two percentage points. If the premium exceeds 10%, it will be reduced by another two percentage points. When the premium exceeds 15%, we will contact the customer and recommend giving up the purchase."

"I understand, this is the copyright information I want to buy, please give me a quotation!"

As Lin Shu spoke, he handed over the IP information he listed last night.

After the other party received the order, although he was surprised by the large number, he still maintained the professionalism of a marketing director and carefully checked the price of the copyright.

After about a minute, Director Zhang seemed to realize that he should not keep the customer waiting for such a long time, and quickly spoke.

"Mr. Lin, you listed about twenty copyrights. It will take me some time to calculate them. Do you need something to drink?"

The two dozen or so are what Lin Shu can remember, and what he has in this era. For works that have not yet been born, such as 33 Days of Love, there is naturally no way to purchase the copyright.

"It doesn't matter, you can do the calculation now, don't worry about me."

After hearing this, Director Zhang could only continue to estimate the price of these copyrights. Perhaps because he couldn't keep up with mental arithmetic, he even took the initiative to find a pen and write down the price on the list given by Lin Shu.

Without the client's consent, he could not enter the copyright information into the computer without authorization, and even the written calculations could only be done on the paper given by Lin Shu.

After about fifteen minutes, Director Zhang finally calculated the price of these copyrights.

"Mr. Lin, in the copyright information you listed, except for the three works of Qing Yu Nian, Bu Bu Jing Xin, and Ghost Blowing the Lamp, which require film and television adaptation rights, the rest of the online novels only require animation film and television rights, right?"

"There are also Liu's science fiction novels. I want the full film and television adaptation rights!"

"Okay, that's no problem. The copyright market for science fiction novels is very unpopular now. Even the total price of the film and television adaptation rights of all his novels will not exceed 500,000."

Liu's The Three-Body Problem has only released the first two parts. He will not write the third part of Death Eternal Life until Avatar is released next year.

The copyright for the Three-Body Problem was also bought for 100,000 yuan next year. Lin Shu did not dare to bet on whether he could hit the spot accurately. To be safe, he could only act first. Even if this operation might cause him to miss the copyright of the eternal death,

But eating the big head first can make him feel at ease.

"Director Zhang, since you have done the math, you might as well tell me the total price directly!"

"Okay, Mr. Lin, the total price of the adaptation rights of the twenty-three novels you listed is about 4.2 million..."

"What?"

Lin Shu looked at him with wide eyes, as if he wanted to eat Director Zhang.

Director Zhang swallowed and said nervously: "Well, Mr. Lin's price can still be negotiated. If everything goes well, we can strive for 400..."

"No, no, no, Director Zhang, you misunderstood me. My reaction just now was that I thought the price was very suitable!"

More than 4 million can buy the rights to adapt these popular novels. This cannot be said to be a profit, it is simply a huge profit!

Director Zhang couldn't react to Lin Shu's words for a moment, but he was a professional after all and quickly adjusted his attitude.

"Mr. Lin, when do you think this licensing contract was signed? According to regulations, we have to charge 30% of the amount first. After the sales contract is signed with the copyright owner, you will pay the remaining 70% and commission."

"You can sign it now. I'll call my lawyer right away to come over and review the contract. But I'm in a hurry for these copyrights. Can you speed up the purchase?"

"Absolutely no problem!"

After getting the other party's guarantee, Lin Shu called his new lawyer and asked him to come over and review the contract.

Now that he has money in his pocket, he cannot save on legal fees, especially when it comes to copyright ownership issues worth tens of billions in the future. Lin Shu must be safe.

The lawyer arrived at the scene half an hour later. The other party was a senior lawyer from the Red Circle Firm, and his professionalism was definitely not comparable to that of Snake Zhang.

After the lawyer reviewed the contract, Lin Shu immediately signed his name on it.

"Are you Lin Shu, the director and star of Sherlock?"

Director Zhang looked at the name on the contract and said in surprise.

"Will my identity affect our cooperation?" Lin Shu asked with a smile on his face.

"No, no, absolutely not!"

Director Zhang waved his hands nervously, but he didn't expect his mouth to fly.

After finishing the matter, Lin Shu told Director Zhang: "Director Zhang, among the copyrights I listed, the first level of importance is Da Liu's novels, the second level is fantasy novels, animation, film and television copyrights, and the rest

Those three film and television adaptation rights are the third level!"

"If this is the case, then there is no problem at all. The domestic copyright market pays the least attention to the copyrights of science fiction novels and animation films. On the contrary, the rights to adapt this shocking film and television are the most popular at the moment."

Lin Shu nodded when he heard this. When he left, he also had some concerns in his mind. Things like the kind of recognition just now will only happen more and more in the future. If this continues, it will be inconvenient for him to do many things by himself.<
