Later, "Harry Potter" was made into a movie, and the eight films grossed $7.2 billion at the global box office, making it one of the hottest Hollywood franchises.
Xiao Yunhai originally thought of bringing "Harry Potter" to this world, but he has only seen movies and never read books. In the end, I had to give up the best-selling novel in history.
But what he never imagined was that Rowling not only existed in this world, but also stood in front of him with Harry Potter, which made Xiao Yunhai shocked for a while.
Seeing Xiao Yunhai's indifference, Rowling thought that the other party looked down on her, so she withdrew her outstretched hand and sat back with a displeased face.
Kerry gave Rowling an apologetic look, stood up and touched Xiao Yunhai, and said, "Xiao, it's really rude of you to do this, should you apologize to Ms. Rowling?"
Xiao Yunhai came back to his senses and asked, "What did you say?"
Kerry frowned and said, "Man, what's wrong with you? Miss Rowling said hello to you just now, why are you ignoring them?"
When Xiao Yunhai heard this, he said, "I was a little stunned just now, it wasn't intentional."
Xiao Yunhai walked up to Rowling and said apologetically: "Ms. Rowling, I'm really sorry, your name is similar to one of my former friends, and it made me fall into my old memories, please can you forgive."
Rowling seemed to sense Xiao Yunhai's sincerity, stood up again, and said with a smile, "It doesn't matter."
Xiao Yunhai took the initiative to stretch out his hand, shook it with her, pointed to the book on Kerry's desk, and said, "Can I have a look?"
Rowling smiled, "Of course you can."
Xiao Yunhai picked up the top copy of "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire" and said to Kerry, "I'll watch it for a while, and talk to Ms. Rowling if you have something to do."
Xiao Yunhai nodded to Rowling, then sat on the sofa and turned over.
Although he hadn't read the book in his previous life, he had watched the movie several times and knew a lot about the story in it.
Xiao Yunhai took ten minutes to browse through it at a glance and ten lines, and said to himself, "Yes, it is, it is similar to the plot in the movie."
Xiao Yunhai raised his head and turned his attention to the conversation between Kerry and Rowling.
He wanted to see if Kerry had the vision to see what was so extraordinary about this novel.
"Ms. Rowling, I spent three days reading your five novels from beginning to end. I have to say that it is a very good work, but I want us to buy it for five million dollars. It's simply impossible to take down its film rights."
Rowling frowned: "Mr. Kerry, if these five novels can be brought to the big screen, I think it is very likely that they will be a huge success. I hope you can think about it again."
Kerry shook his head and said: "Ms. Rowling, I have told you many times just now. Movies and novels are completely different things. The magical world you imagined may not be perfectly presented in movies.
What's more, your novel doesn't have a huge readership, which is undoubtedly the deadliest thing for a movie based on a novel. Even if you go to other studios, I believe the ending will be the same. "
Rowling said disappointedly: "I have invested in four film companies, the first three have no news, you are the only one willing to buy it with a million dollars. But I'm sorry, I can't agree. They are like me Like my kids, I would never sell them cheap."
Kerry frowned: "Ms. Rowling, I can understand your feelings for "Harry Potter". It's just that feelings belong to feelings, and business belongs to business, and the two cannot be confused. One and a half million dollars , this is my bottom line."
Rowling shook her head, stood up, and said, "Mr. Kerry, I'm sorry, I can't agree."
Kerry shrugged and said, "That's a pity."
The two shook hands.
Enmity
Rowling looked disappointed and was about to turn to leave when she suddenly heard Xiao Yunhai say, "Ms. Rowling, please wait a moment."
Rowling looked at Xiao Yunhai and said, "Is there anything wrong with Mr. Xiao?"
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said: "I want to ask, I think your book is very good, why not go to a publishing house to publish it?"
Rowling smiled wryly: "My first novel "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" has already been published in the UK, but unfortunately the response was mediocre and only a few hundred copies were sold. The publishing house directly published "Harry Potter" has returned his publishing contract and is no longer working with me."
Xiao Yunhai said: "Ms. Rowling, I am also a writer. In the past two years, I have written four novels in total, and the total sales in China have reached 160,000 copies. From my perspective, I think your novel, As long as the publicity is done well, it is entirely possible to sell it all over the world.”
When Rowling heard this, she said suspiciously, "Mr. Xiao, your novel has sold 160 million copies? How is that possible?"
Kerry on the side said: "Ms. Rowling, I can testify that Mr. Xiao in front of you is indeed the most famous writer in China. At the same time, he is also an excellent businessman, director, actor and singer.
Rowling said in surprise: "This is simply incredible."
Kerry said, "Xiao, did you like Ms. Rowling's book?"
Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "Kerry, I don't dare to say anything about the Harry Potter movie, but as far as this book is concerned, I am very optimistic."
After the enemy, Keke, the enemy, learns from Moyang, and gets down to the ground
Kerry said, "Then why don't you buy the rights?"
Xiao Yunhai said: "Kerry, I just don't want to steal your business."
Kerry shook his head and said, "I've given up. You can have a good talk with Ms. Rowling here."
Xiao Yunhai said: "Thank you then. Ms. Rowling, can we talk?"
Rowling smiled, "Of course."
Xiao Yunhai unceremoniously drove Kerry aside, shoved the book into his hand, pointed to the sofa and said, "Hey, man, you can go and sit there for a while."
Kerry said, "You bastard, this is my office."
The enemy department is far away from the enemy in love
Enemy was far away from the enemy, so Xiao Yunhai shrugged and said, "I'm sorry, I've requisitioned it now. Ms. Rowling, please take a seat."
Xiao Yunhai shrugged and said, "I'm sorry, but I've been commandeered now. Ms. Rowling, please take a seat."
Rowling smiled and sat down again.
Kerry shook his head and sighed helplessly: "It's really unkind to meet people."
Xiao Yunhai said: "Ms. Rowling, although I have only read a few pages of "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire", I feel that it gives me a very strong sense of substitution. As a writer, I am very aware of this substitution. The feeling is extremely rare, like swimming in the magical world of the book. So, I want to buy all the copyrights for it."
