Los Angeles, USA.
Li Daniu stepped into the territory of the United States again, and his mood was completely different, not only because he truly accepted the identity of the king, but also because of the improvement of his personal strength.
In the previous one or two months, what Li Daniu was most worried about was that he would die due to some accident. Regardless of the dangers in the real world, Li Daniu felt that he was not so unlucky. What he was most worried about before was encountering danger in the movie world.
When you are in fear, people will naturally not be in a good mood, but fortunately, in the second movie, Li Daniu successfully obtained the ability to protect himself.
Therefore, this time, Li Daniu only brought lawyer Castro, and did not bring the two guards that Burns had asked Li Daniu to bring when he went out. What's the point?
The person who picked up the plane was Louis from Sunshine Publishing House. He put the future on Li Daniu with all his might. Of course, he hoped that the publication of "The Lord of the Rings" could be finalized as soon as possible.
After the two sides met, there was no mention of politeness for a while.
In a coffee shop, Li Daniu asked his lawyer Castro to hand over the contract he signed with Lunar Publishing House to Luis, and Luis also handed over the contract he brought to Castro.
Castro, as Tuvalu's royal lawyer, failed in his last appearance. This time, Li Daniu brought him out again, determined in his heart that he must perform well. Of course, he would not admit that the reason why Li Daniu brought him out again was because there were only two lawyers in Tuvalu, and the other one was resigning.
The contract Li Daniu signed with Lunar Publishing House was very simple. How much content can he publish at his own expense?
Louis quickly read the contract, then smiled and said: "There is no problem with the contract, and it will not affect our signing at all. I have to say, Mr. Harry has really disgraced all the editor-in-chiefs in our publishing industry this time."
"I think so." Seeing that Castro was still looking at the terms of the contract very seriously, Li Daniu asked, "Actually, I'm very curious, Mr. Louis, what makes you so confident in me?"
Louis was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Li Daniu to say such a sentence suddenly.
"Your Majesty, from the perspective of work, I am the editor-in-chief of a publishing house, and my function is to discover excellent works. From a personal perspective, I really like your work very much, and I believe that , the vast majority of people in this world will not reject your work."
Li Daniu was very satisfied with Louis's answer. At the very least, he opened his mouth and kept talking about His Majesty the King, unlike the previous Harry who dared to call Tarek directly. He really thought that he was a king.
"I want to ask you a question." Li Daniu pondered for a moment and asked: "What kind of novel is the most lacking in the market at present? I mean that the market is very large, but there are no works that can meet the market demand. "
This question belongs to Louis's specialty, and he said seriously: "I probably understand what you mean. If you compare the novels of various categories, the best-selling ones, except for some books with special significance, are fairy tales. And, fairy tales Works are always the most lacking category of works, because children's curiosity can never be satisfied."
Fairytale? The reason why Li Daniu asks this is because he wants to collect in a targeted manner the next time he crosses over. However, there are too many fairy tale works, no matter which world they are in. They are similar to Grimm's fairy tales and Andersen's fairy tales. Li Daniu It has already been checked, and it already exists in this world, and the content of the story is similar to that of the previous life.
"There is no problem with the contract." Castro finally checked the contract and handed it to Li Daniu.
"So, Mr. Louis, can we sign now?" Li Daniu didn't read it again, he believed that, as a professional lawyer, Castro wouldn't be unable to deal with even such a small problem.
"Of course, thank you for your trust, Your Majesty the King." Although Louis was still worrying about gains and losses, he still had to do his best to save face. You can worry about the choices you have made, but you must not hesitate, otherwise you will lose each other in the end.
The two signed the contract, and the publication of the book "The Lord of the Rings" was finally settled. Li Daniu also had one less thing to worry about. With the promotion of a professional like Louis, he believed that Soon "The Lord of the Rings" will become popular.
At that time, not only the manuscript fee will be a joy to earn, but also the fame will follow. Fame is sometimes more important than the momentary gain or loss of money.
Politely declined Luis' proposal to manage food, housing and play, Li Daniu took Castro to start his own business.
Opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared. Although Li Daniu does not know what kind of movie the next time travel will be, it is always good to make some preparations in advance. Even if the next time travel is not available, it is not Is there a next time?
Li Daniu has also analyzed it during this period of time. The benefits that the movie world can bring to him at present are nothing more than a few aspects.
One is a treasure that can be sold for money, similar to the gem that was brought back in "Dark War".
The second is works that can be plagiarized, such as novels, songs, movies, etc. The movie world that Li Daniu can travel through is based on the world of his previous life, so many works from his previous life can be found in the movie world, such as the novel "Lord of the Rings" , there is in "Dark War".
The world Li Daniu lives in now and will live in for a long time is not the same world as his previous life, but the historical background and living habits are roughly the same, so taking those works back can basically reach the level of his previous life, even if it is bad, it can’t be worse How many.
The third is technological items, whether it is the future products in some sci-fi movies or some black technology, as long as they appear in the real world, they will definitely bring great benefits, far exceeding the benefits that the first two can bring. Of course, risks and benefits coexist, and technological items are the things that can most bring disaster to Li Daniu and his country.
The fourth is the improvement of personal ability, just like the Nine Suns Divine Art obtained in the last movie. There are many things in the movie that can improve a person's ability to the level of heaven-defying, and even the elixir of life is not impossible. .
If these four benefits are to be thoroughly digested, Li Daniu naturally needs to do a lot of preparatory work.
An auction house for auctioning treasures is essential, because you can't always take your treasures to other people's auction houses for auction. After a long time, if you get more treasures, who wouldn't be jealous?
It's okay to publish novels in your own media group, and it's not a big problem in your own publishing house or in other people's publishing houses, and you can even publish them online. But both songs and movies must be in your own hands. How much money can you earn by selling songs and scripts? And if you use these things to make your own stars popular, you will earn more money. What's more, there are so many different types of songs and scripts, geniuses can accept it, but monsters must be killed.
For your own R&D center and technology company, high-tech can't just appear out of thin air. Even if you have a flash of inspiration, you still have to go through a research process. With the R&D center, Li Daniu felt that he could think of a way to make the appearance of those high technologies less abrupt.
Of course, the Long March was carried out step by step, and it was impossible for Li Daniu to complete the preparations in one go, not to mention the shortage of manpower and energy, but also in terms of funds, UU Reading was also unlikely.
And the purpose of his coming to the United States this time, or Hollywood, is to acquire an entertainment company first. The reason for making this preparation in advance is entirely because new entertainment companies open in Hollywood every day, and at the same time, entertainment companies close down every day.
To do the preparatory work, it is natural to do those simple, easy to achieve, and less investment first.
"Your Majesty, an entertainment company I've contacted said that if we raise another $100,000 in the quotation, we will send two models."
"Model appointment?" Li Daniu didn't understand the meaning of this word at all.
"It's a model contract."
"What's the use of that? It's just a contract, not a contract. There are too many models in Hollywood. If I want one, I can sign ten of them for $100,000." Li Daniu felt that the owner of the entertainment company who made this request must regard himself as a I was taken advantage of.
"He also sent the photos of the two models." Castro said with some embarrassment: "From what he said, it seems that it can...that."
well? Li Daniu, as a man, of course knew what the other man meant when he said embarrassingly.
"That won't work either." But Li Daniu knew that the United States is the largest country with AIDS patients outside of Africa, let alone a place like Hollywood where good and bad people are mixed together? He didn't want to suffer from any incurable disease because of his disorderly life. Besides, what he wants now is a small investment with big returns. One hundred thousand dollars can be enough for everyone in Tuvalu to drink bottled water for a week, which he is reluctant to part with.
After walking for a while, Li Daniu suddenly said: "Take a look at the photo, it doesn't cost money anyway."
