Back to 84: Getting rich from collecting rubbish

Chapter 662 This is a stupid condition
The box office of more than [-] million US dollars will be shared by the screenwriter!
This proposal stunned Jameson for a moment. This was the first time he encountered such a situation. After thinking for a while, he said, "How much is Mr. Shen going to share?"

"How about one percent?" Shen Lin answered casually.

One percent?One percent of 300 million, that is [-] million dollars!

"You want to share [-]% of the box office? It's simply impossible!" Jameson said here, trying to restrain the anger in his heart: "Even the director would not dare to ask for it like this."

"Haha, Mr. Jameson, I think you may have misunderstood me." Shen Lin raised the corner of his mouth and said with a smile: "I have confidence in the value of our works."

"And what I want is not one percent of the [-] million box office, but one percent of the box office that exceeds the three hundred million."

"That is to say, if the box office this time is 1000 million, then I can get [-] US dollars."

"Of course, the higher the box office, the more you earn, right?"

At this moment, Jameson calmed down.He looked at the serious Shen Lin, and said solemnly: "What if I disagree?"

"Then, I can only be sorry! I believe that there must be other companies interested in it, isn't it?" Shen Lin spread his hands and said regretfully: "Then our cooperation can only end here!"

Jameson's eyes looked closely at Shen Lin.

He even wanted to kill the guy with his eyes if he could.

What a beautiful and quiet female author, if you talk about business with her, it must be a pleasant cooperation, but why does such a beautiful woman find such a shameless man as her husband?
This is clearly a human tragedy!
Slandering in his heart, Jameson said, "I need to ask for your request."

"Of course, please." Shen Lin pointed to the door and said, "Then see you tomorrow."

Seeing these three words tomorrow, Shen Lin said it quite casually, so that anyone who heard it felt that it was an etiquette word, not that Shen Lin hoped to really meet him tomorrow.

Jameson's eyes fell on the phone on Shen Lin's desk: "Excuse me, is the sir's phone activated for international calls?"

"It's opened." Shen Lin smacked his lips and said: "But you should hurry up when you make this call, international long distance is a bit expensive!"

Of course, Shen Lin wouldn't care about such a small amount of money, but at this time, the persona he put in front of Jameson was a profit-greedy businessman.

This will naturally put a little pressure on Jameson!

Sure enough, upon hearing Shen Lin's instructions, Jameson's eyes quickly flashed a hint of disdain. Immediately, he picked up the phone in front of Shen Lin without any scruples.

After a quick conversation in English, 2 minutes, Jameson put the phone down.

Shen Lin looked at Jameson's appearance, and thought that Jameson's company seemed to be a sensible person, otherwise, he would not have refused so firmly.

But if you don't have this condition, it's really a loss!

When Shen Lin was struggling, he heard Jameson say: "Our boss said that if you are willing to reduce the initial acquisition cost of [-] US dollars, then he is willing to give you twice as much after [-] million US dollars."

"That is to say, after the box office of [-] million US dollars, I can give you [-]%."

When he said this, a sly smile appeared on the corner of Jameson's mouth.

Of course, this smile was not intentional, but the boss's reaction, which forced him to laugh.

The boss on the other end of the phone told him almost in a snarling tone, why did he call for such a stupid condition, just agree!
He also said that if he was willing to compromise on the price, after the box office reached [-] million, he could be given double the amount.Shen Lin also saw Jameson's smile, but he ignored it automatically. What he was thinking about was the two percent.

It seems that both Jameson and his boss think that the box office is no more than [-] million US dollars, but according to Shen Lin's own memory, the global box office of this film is close to [-] million US dollars.

Although at that time, it seemed that the economy was developing faster, but with the halo of international awards, coupled with the current audience's attention to the exploration of the universe, it surpassed the box office at that time.

What's more, what I invested was [-] dollars.

And once it reaches the global box office, it's almost $500 million!
One hundred times the income, and the possibility of success is so great, how can you refuse under such circumstances.

"You want me to pay a license fee of [-] dollars, which is a bit high." Shen Lin deliberately took a breath and said, "I always feel a little bit at a loss."

"James, if the box office exceeds [-] million, you will give me [-]% of the excess. If it exceeds [-] million, you will give me [-]% of the excess. If it exceeds [-] million, you will give me [-]% of the excess. Four out of four, if..."

Shen Lin's conditions made Jameson helpless for a while, this is a guy who is both greedy for money and whimsical!
How did such a guy, this ice-snow and clever female author, fall in love with him!

Slandering Shen Lin in his heart, Jameson waved his hands and said, "Okay, I can agree to this, but our condition is at most 5.00%."

"Let's not talk about the rest, what do you think?"

5.00% of 500 million, that is [-] million US dollars, Shen Lin suddenly felt that the money came really fast.

But it's a pity, although this business has been negotiated, but I don't know when I want to get the money!

After all, making a movie is not a quick thing.

So this sum of money, which Shen Lin thought should be quite a lot, is just a number at this time, a number that he himself thinks should be there.

And this number, in Jameson's eyes, should not exist.After all, in Mr. Jameson's opinion, the box office of this movie is impossible to exceed [-] million.

At most, it is more than two billion.

With a box office of more than 40 million yuan, the one who paid [-] US dollars by himself is also a big profit.As for those additional conditions, hey, it's all this guy's whimsy, he's waiting for the pie to fall from the sky.

He doesn't have time to play games with these people.

"Since Mr. Jameson is so straightforward, let's settle this matter." Shen Lin said to Jameson.

Jameson smiled and said, "There is a saying in your country that nights are long and dreams are many. I think we should sign this contract now."

"I have the text of the universal contract, you can read it." While speaking, Jameson took out the universal contract he had prepared.

It is in two languages, so both Shen Lin and Lu Xiaorong can understand it. After reading the contract carefully, and calling Zhang Yuqing again, Shen Lin finally got Lu Xiaorong to sign the contract .

"Mr. Shen, Miss Lu, I will send you a check of 40 US dollars tomorrow. Congratulations. From today on, you will be millionaires here." Jameson stood up, shook hands with Shen Lin and said .

"Millionaire? Hehe, Mr. Jameson, I am no longer." Shen Lin also smiled brightly.
