Rowling was very happy when she heard that Xiao Yunhai had such a high regard for her novel, and said, "Thank you Mr. Xiao for your love for Harry Potter. .v. You are so confident that this novel will definitely succeed?" Really, I've been disheartened myself."

Xiao Yunhai smiled and said: "There is an old saying in China that gold always shines. I think Harry Potter is not just a piece of gold, it may even be a gold mine. Ms. Rowling, would you like it? sell it to me?"

Rowling said: "Of course I would. Mr. Xiao, I have already paid five million US dollars for the film adaptation rights. If it is all rights, the price may be higher."

Rowling thought about it and said: "I have written five books in total, and there may be two more later. If you are really optimistic about it, I am willing to sell it to you for five million dollars."

Enemy Keke's situation on the ground

Kerry, who had been eavesdropping on the conversation between the two, suddenly exclaimed, "God, Ms. Rowling, are you joking?"

Rowling shook her head and said sternly: "I never joke about my Harry Potter."

Enemy is not cold, the enemy is cold, so the lucky star

For Xiao Yunhai, buying five Harry Potter books for $25 million was definitely a huge bargain.

But Xiao Yunhai did not show a ecstatic expression, but suppressed the joy in his heart, pretended to think for a while, and finally said through gritted teeth, "I'll bet this time. Ms. Rowling, $25 million is fine."

Kerry opened his eyes wide, showing an incredible look, and shouted to Xiao Yunhai: "Xiao, you are crazy, you dare to do such a business."

Xiao Yunhai said: "Kerry, I think the Harry Potter series may become popular all over the world."

Kerry looked like a lunatic and said, "You're willing to spend $25 million for a possibility that is almost impossible. I really don't know what to say to you."

Xiao Yunhai smiled and said: "This is a gamble, the gamble is on my vision. If I win, I will get a fortune far exceeding 25 million US dollars. If I lose, it doesn't matter, the money will come to me. Say, it's nothing."

Kerry said: "You are a gambler. As a brother, I can only wish you good luck."

Xiao Yunhai said: "Thank you. Ms. Rowling, I want to remind you that if you really sold me the copyright of Harry Potter for $25 million, this book will become popular in the future, even if After earning 250 billion, I'm afraid you won't get a penny in it."

Rowling nodded and said, "Of course I understand. Mr. Xiao, $25 million is already a huge sum of money for me and my children, enough to bring us an enviable life. Mr. Xiao , are you really going to spend so much money on my novel?"

In fact, a Harry Potter sold for five million dollars, but Rowling just said it casually, and didn't really want to sell that much.

In her mind, if five Harry Potters can sell for 10 million, it is already very good.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Yunhai readily agreed without paying back the price, which made Rowling feel like she was in a dream.

Xiao Yunhai is actually very clear that if he deliberately lowers the price, Rowling, who is at the bottom of the society, will definitely agree.

However, Xiao Yunhai is not the kind of person who is mercenary. He used 25 million US dollars to get five Harry Potters.

It's already taken a huge advantage.

If Xiao Yunhai continued to lower the price under such circumstances, his conscience would be overwhelmed.

Therefore, Xiao Yunhai agreed immediately.

"Ms. Rowling, if you don't believe it, we can sign it now, and the check for $25 million will be delivered to you immediately."

Rowling said happily: "If so, that would be great."

Xiao Yunhai said: "Kerry, should your company have a lawyer? Let him help draft a contract."

Kerry looked at Xiao Yunhai and said, "I take back what I said that you are an excellent businessman. Also, please don't point fingers at me in my company in the future."

Although Kerry said so, he still went out to help Xiao Yunhai find a company lawyer.

Half an hour later, Xiao Yunhai and Rowling signed the agreement, and then Xiao Yunhai borrowed a check for 25 million from Kerry and gave it to Rowling.

Rowling took the check, shook hands with Xiao Yunhai, and said, "Thank you, Mr. Xiao, for taking care of my urgent needs."

Sun Keke said, "You are a gambler. As a brother, I can only wish you good luck."

Xiao Yunhai said with a deep meaning: "You're welcome. Maybe I will thank you in the future."

Rowling smiled and said, "That would be great. Mr. Xiao, Mr. Kerry, I need to go home to take care of the children, bye."

"goodbye."

After Rowling left, Kerry said, "Xiao, are you so optimistic about this novel? Seriously, I read it for three days and didn't see how good it is?"

Xiao Yunhai said with a smile: "This is the difference between our writers and you. Kerry, help me find a publishing house. I want to promote Harry Potter well."

Kerry thought about it and said, "There is a Crown Press in Hollywood, which is very famous in America. The owner of the publishing house is my good friend, Jesse Bryan. His father just passed away last month, and now The publishing house is up to him."

Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "That's great. In this way, you can help me get him out tonight, and I invite you to have a good time."

"." Kerry snapped his fingers and said, "You are ready to be beaten by us."

At six in the afternoon, Xiao Yunhai and Kerry walked into a French restaurant together.

Kerry's friend Jesse Bryan had been here long ago.

After seeing the two, Brian greeted them and said, "Kerry, long time no see."

Kerry hugged him and said with a smile, "I'm sorry, we're late. Let me introduce you, this is Yunhai Xiao, a Chinese star, Xiao, this is Brian."

The two shook hands, and Brian said, "Nice to meet you."

Xiao Yunhai said politely, "I'm also very happy to meet you."

After the three were seated, Kerry ordered the most famous foie gras, caviar, sandwiches and red wine here.

In less than ten minutes, the waiter brought the things, and Kerry raised his glass and said, "Cheers to our friendship."

"cheers."

After drinking a glass of wine, Brian looked at Xiao Yunhai and said, "Xiao, listen to Kerry, you want to publish a book."

Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "That's right. It's called Harry Potter, and there are five books in total. I think it's very good, and it has the potential to become popular all over the world."

Brian smiled and said, "Xiao, it seems that you are very confident in this book. I don't know which publishing method you choose? Self-pay, share or buyout?"

Xiao Yunhai said: "I want to publish at my own expense. However, before publishing, I need you to do publicity for me."

Bryan said: "Our publishing house has the best publicity channels. There are three different price tags: $5 million, $10 million, and $30 million. Which one do you want to choose?"

Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Of course it's the best."

With a smile on his face, Brian said, "It seems that this is a big deal. Xiao, your choice is absolutely right. The $30 million publicity is very powerful and will cover the whole country. At that time, the Internet, TV, Magazines will feature our Harry Potters. But are you sure it will get good grades?"

Xiao Yunhai said confidently: "Of course. We will print five million copies first, and then we will print them when they are sold out."

Kerry, who had just taken a sip of red wine, almost spat out the red wine when he heard Xiao Yunhai's words.

He pointed at Xiao Yunhai and said, "Xiao, are you kidding me? Five million copies? God, this is crazy, I dare say that even those best-selling authors may not be able to sell five million copies. "

Brian also persuaded: "Xiao, I think we should print 500,000 copies first, which is safer."

Xiao Yunhai shook his head and said, "I didn't hesitate to spend 30 million dollars on publicity. If I only print 500,000 copies, do I need to spend so much effort?"

Brian said: "But this is the best way to avoid risks. If it can't be sold, five million copies, won't they all fall into their own hands?"

Xiao Yunhai said: "I firmly believe that Harry Potter will succeed."

"Xiao, you are such a crazy guy." Brian shook his head and sighed: "Well, the customer is God, I will do my best to meet your requirements. What kind of paper do you need?"

Xiao Yunhai said: "Use the best quality."

Brian said, "Xiao, I want to tell you that if you use the best quality paper, five million copies will cost you at least sixty million dollars."

Xiao Yunhai said with a smile: "Money is not a problem, it's better to sell it more expensively."

Like the previous life, the United States attaches great importance to intellectual property protection, so the copyrighted things are very expensive.

Like Harry Potter's first "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone", the length is not too long. According to the American market, it can be sold for at least thirty dollars.

If he can sell 5 million copies, after taking into account the printing cost of the novel and the royalties that need to be paid, Xiao Yunhai can earn at least 60 million US dollars.

Of course, this does not count publicity fees and Rowling's copyright fees.

Kerry patted his forehead and said, "Xiao, I think I'm already a loser, but compared to you, I find myself a good boy. In just two hours, a hundred million dollars hit You're really good at it."

The next morning, Xiao Yunhai brought a lawyer to the Crown Publishing House.

Xiao Yunhai said: "Kerry, I firmly believe that the "Harry Potter" series of books will definitely sell well."

Kerry said: "You have said this sentence no less than ten times, I hope it can be as you wish."

After discussing the printing and publishing of "Harry Potter" with Brian, the three had a beautiful meal.

In order to avenge the last time, Kerry ate four pieces of foie gras alone, and drank more than a bottle of fine red wine, his face flushed.

After eating, Xiao Yunhai went to check out.

Sun Ke is far alone and hates to meet the sun

Before Sun Ke could finish talking, Xiao Yunhai left the restaurant with Brian, who had been laughing beside him.

Creole danced when he learned that he needed to pay thirty-three thousand dollars.

Xiao Yunhai paid the money without changing his face, patted Kerry on the shoulder, and said, "Kerry, can we attend a little bit? Thirty thousand dollars has turned you into such a virtue, what a shame for you MGM. ."

After finishing speaking, Xiao Yunhai left the restaurant with Brian, who had been laughing beside him.

Kerry quickly chased after him and shouted, "Xiao, I killed you."

The next morning, Xiao Yunhai brought a lawyer to Crown Publishing House.

I found Brian, had a more detailed discussion on the related issues of the "Harry Potter" series, and finally signed a cooperation agreement.

After the feud, the feud, after the investigation and the cold test, the ghost

Xiao Yunhai handed the electronic version of "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" to Brian, saying: "This is our first novel and the beginning of our cooperation. Brian, the following publicity work is up to you. yes."

Brian smiled and said, "Don't worry, Xiao. I promise that in the next half month, the name Harry Potter will be heard throughout America."
