After a long time, Caron still hadn't recovered from the shock.
After all, his new work has just been rejected by the editor. In the other's words, it has no development value.
But in a blink of an eye, Chen Feng actually started asking directly about his intention to sell the copyright of his work.
This change is too rapid.
However, this kind of work is suddenly recognized by others, and the feeling that someone is willing to spend money to buy the copyright from him makes Caron very comfortable.
At this moment, Caron was even really tempted.
The so-called friend is hard to find. Now that you meet someone who knows the goods, you can simply sell the copyright of your work.
But soon, he gradually calmed down again.
Because the development of the whole thing is really weird, and the young man who seems to be rich in front of him doesn't know what his identity is. It is really not a sensible thing to just recklessly agree to other people's requests.
What's more, my own works are written in English, and the style of comics is all foreign styles. Now, a person in the Chinese-speaking area wants to buy his own copyright. This seems very contradictory, right?
Because of cultural differences, if the copyright of one's own work is bought by the other party, will there be no future in the future?
A series of doubts slowly surfaced in Caron's heart, so the expression on his face changed from initial shock and excitement to doubt and confusion.
Finally, after a few minutes of silence, Caron slowly asked some of his own questions.
He asked very cautiously, but it was also very detailed, listing out many of the puzzles in his mind one by one.
Tao Xianzhi listened carefully to Caron's questions, and then translated the content to Chen Feng.
Chen Feng finished listening and shook his head and smiled.
Indeed, he was a little anxious. When everyone did not know each other, he rashly asked about buying copyrights. It was really a bit reckless, no wonder others were suspicious.
So Chen Feng took out a business card of Ping An Investment Company and handed it to Caron.
This business card was designed by An Ruohua and printed for him. After all, Ping An Investment Company is now well-known in the industry, and there is something that should be there.
Karon took Chen Feng's business card with some confusion, but he didn't understand it after a few glances.
Later, Tao Xianzhi patiently introduced Chen Feng's identity.
Caron's eyes widened when he heard that Chen Feng was in the film industry.
Movies, this is really beyond his expectation.
However, at the same time, Chen Feng's position in Caron's heart immediately became a lot more important.
Because Caron knows very well that the reason why the comic IPs of the superhero series are becoming more and more expensive is because of the continuous development of the movie market in recent years, and more and more movies adapted from comics, and the box office is getting more and more. it is good.
Therefore, if your own comics can be adapted into a movie, it is definitely one of the most exciting things!
Especially the fantasy world like "Avatar", if it is changed into the form of a movie, it will definitely become more attractive.
And this Chen Feng in front of him happened to be making a movie!
...
However, even though Chen Feng’s identity has been clarified, he also understands that Chen Feng’s desire to buy the copyright of his works is not joking, but this kind of thing is a big deal after all, and Caron himself needs to think about it.
Therefore, before Caron finally left, he still did not agree to Chen Feng's request or even asked for a specific offer.
However, Chen Feng was not discouraged either. The crowd sent Karon out of the villa very politely. Seeing this strange-tempered foreign painter slowly leave, he returned to the living room.
"Is that Caron's work really that good? Must I buy it?" An Ruohua asked with some confusion beside her.
Chen Feng nodded.
"Well, I think it's great. If it can be adapted into a movie, it will be an amazing movie."
Tao Xianzhi next to him thought for a while, and said: "However, comics need to do a lot of special effects. As far as I know, many foreign companies are also doing superhero series movie works, but there are not many successes in China. Is it more difficult..."
"Yes, it will be difficult..." Chen Feng thought for a while, but suddenly laughed: "However, no matter how difficult, as long as you think about it, you will be able to overcome it. We also shot "The Wandering Earth" Is it? We should not be afraid to challenge even more difficult subjects."
When he said these words, Chen Feng's face was full of self-confidence. Tao Xianzhi admired that kind of boldness.
...
After Caron returned to his residence, he couldn't calm down.
Someone wants to buy the copyright of his own work, and it seems that he hasn't been joking, this kind of thing makes him a little frustrated.
Although Caron was very stable in front of Chen Feng and the others at that time, at this time in his own home, he finally didn't have to hide anything.
So he kept pacing back and forth in the room, sometimes stopped suddenly, concentrating on something, and sometimes kept shaking his head, and continued to run back and forth.
In short, he is not calm at all.
Although there are many concerns, he is still very excited about the possibility of selling the copyright of his work.
In the end, Caron dialed the phone he had previously edited with some anxiety.
Although the other party just rejected his manuscript, now only he can answer some of the doubts in Caron's mind.
After a while, the call was made, and the other party was rarely in free time, so Karon was able to chat with the other party a few more words.
After the polite greeting, Caron cautiously began to inquire about the film and television copyright prices of comic works.
When it comes to this kind of thing, the editor opposite is also a little excited.
"Manga adaptation rights, the price is high or low, the highest ~EbookFREE.me~ like the hottest superhero series works, they are almost priceless, because the author holds the copyright in his hand, it is absolutely Most of them will not be sold directly. Most of them are cooperative development, and some people can even participate in the box office share... Of course, the film and television copyrights of some works have been bought out, and the known price is as high as several million US dollars... "
After listening to such astronomical figures, Caron only felt the blood surge. Although the works sold for millions of dollars were not his, it at least gave him a lot of hope.
However, another remark made afterwards made him fall into the ice cave.
"Of course, the copyrights of those not so well-known works can't be sold at a good price. For example, the few comic works you published in the past few years are now lucky enough to sell for tens of thousands of dollars. No one cares about the copyrights of many works."
"So, Caron, I'd better advise you to change to the superhero series as soon as possible, and stop wasting time on your fantasy planet blue alien works..."
"Your things are really worthless..."
