When Robertson heard this, he could see the determination in Kevin's expression. So he knew that if he wanted to sign up for the film rights of Harry Potter and the chamber of secrets, he might need 250 pounds.
So Robertson couldn't help thinking again. While he was thinking about it, Kevin said, "Dear Mr. Robertson, for the sake of your sincerity, let me tell you another thing. Before the signing of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's stone to Clyde pictures, people from Jiahe film company came to me, but they didn't make a decision immediately. After they go back to the meeting and discuss, I've signed a film contract with the people from Clyde‘
Kevin's intention of telling this story to Robertson is obvious, that is to hope that the other party will not think about it for too long, or maybe they will taste the "regret" that God has given them.
Robertson also recognized Kevin's words, so after thinking for a moment, he gritted his teeth and said, "well, Mr. Kevin, maybe we should pay a huge price for such a good magic work. I mean, I agree with your terms‘
"Really? Dear Mr. Robertson‘ Crawford was surprised at last.
Yes, if the film and television copyright of "Harry Potter and the chamber of secrets" also sold for 2.5 million pounds, plus that of the previous "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's stone", it would be 5 million pounds. My God, that's a huge number. These two works have already sold for 5 million pounds by film and television copyright alone. This is something Crawford has never seen before in the book business.
"Of course, I never empty talk. As long as you agree to contract the film and television copyright of Harry Potter and the chamber of secrets to our kana film company, I think we can accept the 2.5 million pound terms‘ Robson said exactly.
This is the difference between a large film company and a small film company. This is the difference between a local tycoon and a loser. Kana film company has enough money to compete for excellent scripts, so as long as they decide what they want. Naturally, you can make a decision immediately instead of going back to a meeting.
It was in Kevin's words that Robertson was stimulated. He didn't want to follow Jiahe's "regret" footsteps, so he made his decision immediately. Besides, he also knows that Kevin's "Harry Potter and the chamber of secrets" is so excellent, and the degree of attention is so high, when it's time to make a movie, it will certainly achieve good results.
Anyway, as a big film company, they don't miss out on something - it's stupid.
When Kevin heard that Robertson agreed to his offer, he was also very happy in his heart. After all, it's his own work, and it's also a book published by his own company. As the author or the boss, he has enough reasons to make every cell happy.
"Mr. Robertson is so sincere that we are willing to sign the film copyright of Harry Potter and the chamber of secrets to you. I think this work is shot by you Cannes Film Company, and it will certainly achieve very good results‘ Kevin said with a smile.
"Yes, Mr. Robertson, I also think this work of Kevin will be very popular with the audience when it is put behind the scenes. Maybe he will create a movie miracle like Jane Eyre‘ At this time, Robertson's secretary said.
Yes, I don't know why she felt happy when she heard her boss agreed to the contract terms proposed by Kevin. Maybe I like Kevin's literature for too long, or maybe I like Harry Potter and the chamber of secrets. Anyway, now that both sides are satisfied with the results, she is finally relieved.
"Well, I have confidence in it too, otherwise I would not have made such a decision." Robertson said.
So, after both sides agreed to the terms of the contract, "Harry Potter and the chamber of secrets" film and television copyright is also signed to the kana film company. Robertson was worried that something might go wrong, so he left after signing the film and television copyright agreement with Kevin.
Facts have proved that Robertson's decision is correct, because not long after he left Edinburgh, Sihua Culture Co., Ltd. and Kevin's mobile phones were destroyed by some film companies. They all tried to talk to Kevin about the film and television copyright of the Harry Potter series.
Naturally, there are people who are interested in the film and television copyright of Harry Potter and the chamber of secrets. Unfortunately, they are all a little late. The film and television copyright of this work is no longer due to them.
Of course, in addition to "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's stone" and "Harry Potter and the chamber of secrets", there is also "Harry Potter and the prisoner of Azkaban". At this time, the film companies and individuals who are interested in this story have also indicated that they want to talk with Kevin about signing its film and television copyright.
Because of too many people asking, Kevin will naturally choose the best. After all, he is not sure to contract such an excellent work to some film companies without strength. In that case, it is estimated that the shooting will not have a good effect.
Kevin finally chose a company called Adelman film company. Adelman film company is not only famous in Britain, but also in the world. Therefore, Kevin can contract his works to such a large film company, so he is relieved.
"Harry Potter and the prisoner of Azkaban" is one of the three first published stories, and its film and television copyright price is naturally the same as the first two - 2.5 million pounds. As a result, Kevin has earned 7.5 million pounds simply by relying on the film and television rights of his three works.
It's a great achievement to sign the film and television copyright of three works in such a short time. Kevin also knows that all this comes from the support and love of readers, so after signing all the contracts, he habitually logs on to his own twitter, and then publishes a thank-you note:
The film and television copyrights of the three stories of Harry Potter have finally been signed. Thank you very much for your support and love all the way. Therefore, I would like to say that no matter how much I thank you, I can't express my gratitude to you in my heart. Maybe I should only write more beautiful works. Thank you, thank God - Kevin tweeted.
