Chapter 23 Signals
Coming out of the negotiating building and looking at the sunlight shining on him, Ke Wen still felt that what happened just now was a bit dreamy. Because he saw with his own eyes that Lena used his own advantages to overwhelm the negotiation teams of several film and television giants, and took the initiative to speak in his own hands. After almost a day of negotiations, he basically also controlled Ke Wen's consortium B company. The copyright of several superheroes is divided into several parts.
The Kamen Rider series will be handed over to the new streaming media giant Netflix for filming. The finalized first "Kamen Rider W" will be released after all episodes are filmed. In terms of filming, Consortium B, as the copyright provider, will follow up with an editorial team dedicated to the Kamen Rider series of comics, and will be responsible for providing references for the screenwriter. Of course, this screenwriter is Ke Wen himself, after all Kamen Rider comics The original scripts were all provided by his ten-year knight fan.
In this regard, in this DC universe, Ke Wen can proudly say that no one understands the spirit and meaning of the four words Kamen Rider better than himself. Ke Wen also has the right to speak in terms of casting, and when Ke Wen, the original author, the director, and the screenwriter have conflicts over plot revisions, they can report their opinions to Lena, who is the major shareholder, and the management of Netflix. It's up to them to negotiate on their input and finalize it.
Immediately afterwards, in terms of profitability, "Kamen Rider W" can be said to be Ke Wen's pioneering work in the DC universe to truly popularize the concept of Kamen Rider. No one has tried the water before, so once they make a profit, Netflix will account for 70% of the profit, and Consortium B will account for 30%, which only covers the film and television works, and the peripherals derived from its film and television works will be 50-50% of the profit.
"Why is it only 30%?" A few hours ago, Ke Wen asked curiously after hearing the final result of Lena's negotiation with Netflix.
"So, you guy, you were able to run that company until now. I can only say that you are lucky. No one thought that you were Kamen Rider, and you saved the world so many times. And Batman, The Flash, the most popular superhero copyrights in the world, let me ask you, have you ever made a movie or made a TV series?"
Lena asked Ke Wen back there, Ke Wen shook his head, and then realized, "No, you haven't made a movie before, could it be you..."
Looking at Ke Wen's color-changing eyes, Lena showed a kind smile, and then Ke Wen shut up, pinching his ears and consciously kneeling on the floor, and consciously took out his mobile phone from his pocket and put it on his knee.
Ke Wen is so knowledgeable, Lena also saved her hands, and continued to say: "The Lex Group itself covers a wide range of fields. Although it is mainly in technology and new energy, no one will think too much about money. Well, so like investing in movies, we have also dabbled in it, but it’s just an investment. To use a common saying, I haven’t eaten pork, but I’ve seen pigs running, especially IP-type film and television works like yours. There is also a saying."
Speaking of which,
Lena also temporarily stopped the science popularization, and Ke Wen looked at the empty cup in front of Lena, and knelt and moved to the coffee machine consciously, and then handed over the filled coffee.
"Sensible~" After commenting on Ke Wen, she continued: "What is the biggest basis for your IP to become a real person series, and it is fans. If you want to make this IP real, you have to publicize it first, let fans They built up momentum, and then resorted to a professional team to let fans and unrelated passers-by know that there is such a work to be filmed. Immediately afterwards, capital entered the market and got Money, start filming, and after the release, the capital money will be returned in full, and fans and passers-by will be divided into 37% of the profits."
Oh, it turned out to be such a truth, Ke Wen suddenly realized and nodded, and after a while, he felt that the content of the conversation was a bit familiar. Lena also found Ke Wen's Xiaobai look interesting, and she took a sip of coffee before saying: "And you, you are testing the waters, and it's not like no one has made similar superhero film and television works before, but that's all It is fictitious, plus our world itself has superheroes, so the impact is the same. If you adapt the comics authorized by Batman to real people, then we must have more initiative here. Now, You can give us 30% because you, Kamen Rider, have saved the world several times."
Going back to the present, Ke Wen can't say anything about the popularity Lena gave him, after all, he is indeed a novice in this regard. However, Lena also won enough benefits for herself, allowing herself to participate in the real-life production of Kamen Rider, and she still has a certain right to speak, and the copyright is also in her own hands. There is a high probability that there will be no such kind of screenwriter and producer. Ego, the incident of the persecution of knights, probably.
In this regard, Ke Wen does not have much confidence. As for the copyright live-action film and television production of other superheroes with the same name in his company, although Lena is also responsible for it, the discussion is almost the same, but these old foxes are also waiting. Waiting for the reaction of Ke Wen, the first work of the Kamen Rider live-action series, only if they see the sweetness and benefits, will there be a next big production. The only thing Ke Wen can do here is to hold the copyright firmly in his hands and not let them mess around.
Another thing I wanted to do was completed, and Ke Wen also felt that this day was pretty good, "Then next, should I talk to that celebration monster, this universe can't find soda, let him come It’s not impossible, I just don’t know if he agrees or not, don’t ask me to shoot a Watts series for him at that time, that’s really disgusting.” Walking on the street, Ke Wen was also talking to himself there, before Watts, the celebration monster, also helped him a lot when dealing with the Anti-Monitor.
He also remembered the conditions that Watts put forward at that time, to be the protagonist of Kamen Rider live-action TV in this universe, and the dual protagonists are also the protagonists, so there should be no major problems. Ke Wen, who was thinking this way, was also going to talk to this guy Watts after returning to the office for dinner, but when Ke Wen passed by the city park, he also saw a lot of people gathered here. There are few passers-by, and there are also a few media workers.
Um? Is there any melon to eat at this point? Looking at the passers-by in a circle in front of him, Ke Wen was also puzzled, and he, who was driven by curiosity, followed suit. Immediately afterwards, he saw such a scene, in the city park, that belonged to himself transformed into Kamen Rider W and Kara, one was flying in the sky, the other was on the statue riding a motorcycle, at the place where Kara and his own face statue , At the position of the mouth, a smiling face was painted with red paint, and the position of Cara's eye statue was also painted with clown eye makeup.
On the chest of Ke Wen's knight statue, there is such a sentence written in yellow paint: Hahaha, Kamen Rider, you are a joke! The onlookers were taking pictures and accusing the guy who had scribbled on the statue of his city's hero, and the patrolling police were there asking the security guard in charge of the park area if they saw any suspicious people. But for Ke Wen, accusations from passers-by, media reports, and police interrogation are no longer the focus.
His eyes were only focused on the words on the statue and the smeared makeup. Without saying a word, the original feeling that Kamen Rider could finally start live-action TV also disappeared at this moment. With a serious expression, he just left the park without saying a word.
That night, at the Planetary Detective Agency, Ke Wen and Zatanna had a simple dinner there, and Zatanna also noticed that Ke Wen's state was a bit abnormal at this time. Usually at this time, Ke Wen has already consciously served himself a meal, but now, Ke Wen is just poking the already empty bowl with his chopsticks, not knowing what he is thinking.
"Hey, are you okay?" Seeing Ke Wen's distraught look, Zatanna asked there, having no intention of eating.
"Ah? Oh, I forgot to serve you a meal," Ke Wen, who was interrupted by Zatanna, also got up and took the bowl that Zatanna put in front of him, served her a good meal, and handed it over come over.
Seeing that Ke Wen didn't intend to say anything, Zatanna didn't ask any more questions, but just ate there silently. After dinner, Zatanna sat on the sofa and watched TV, and Ke Wen also consciously washed the dishes there. After a long time, Ke Wen, who was washing dishes in the kitchen, said.
"That Xiao Zha, how about you go back to the Tower of Destiny to see your father during this time?"
"How long to go back."
"A week, a week will do."
"Are you sure you can handle it this week?"
At this time, Zatanna also saw on TV the news that the superhero statue was maliciously graffitied in the city park in the afternoon. When she saw the clown makeup of the statue and the sentence written on the statue of Ke Wen Knight , Zatanna also understands why Ke Wen was in that state just now. For most people, this is just a prank, but for those of them who are in the superhero circle, they understand that there is such a person who will do this. Gotham's Joker.
As for the news of Joker's death, there were only two or three people who knew about it. Ke Wen, Batman and Dick who were at the scene at the time, as well as Superman, who was the first time Batman shared the news, and Wonder Woman, his confidante, and others People, including members of the Justice League, thought the Joker had been locked up in Arkham Asylum. But this does not mean that Zatanna, as a junior, does not know the horror of clowns. The incident that happened to Superman's wife and son in Metropolis is still fresh in Zatanna's memory.
