Reborn Cultural Empire

Seeing Su Wan's smile less than five seconds before and after, and her indifference flowing from her bones, Di Jia knew that she thought things too simply at the beginning. These two children, and the middle school students she knew The image is too different, so that now he feels a little frustrated.

But looking at the back of the girl leaving alone, this man who has always been the focus of his classmates suddenly got up and followed.

His emotional life is not blank, but it has never been enriched. The most important thing is that there is no important girl around him now. face girl.

Who knows that he will meet the right person in the next second.

"Di Jia..." "Hey"

His two classmates were probably aggrieved by being ignored by Yang Yisuwan one after another. Now that they saw Di Jia chasing him out again, they were suddenly surprised, and they shouted half astonished. It was a quiet reading room, and he immediately choked back the remaining words in his stomach.

"Isn't he playing for real?" The two looked at each other in dismay, stunned by the result.

Pursuing a middle school student?Even if that little girl had a shocking first impression, but...

I don't know if the girls in the department will be fooled when the news spreads.

……

Sitting in Rogo's car, he was driving slowly in the clean and fresh early winter campus all the way, and he received one after another attention gift on the road. At this time in 97, a big Benz was driving in a relatively simple and simple campus, and it was quite cool, unlike the fragrant cars and BMWs that abound in the downstairs of the women's dormitory and at the school gate in later generations, a Mercedes Benz is placed on the campus. There is no way to attract the crowds of students.

"Didn't you say that Brother Luo is solely responsible? Why can't it work again?" Yang Yi sat in the back row of the carriage, feeling a little annoyed about the small quarrel with Su Wan just now, rubbing his chest.

Assistant Zhang, who was driving, heard that Yang Yi's tone was different from his usual politeness. When he secretly looked at the rearview mirror, he found that Yang Yi seemed to be extremely tired and impatient, so he couldn't help lowering his voice subconsciously: " It's because the island country insisted on some conditions and didn't let go..."

"Then serve tea to see off the guests, what else are we talking about?" Yang Yi didn't realize that the irritability in his heart was growing imperceptibly, and he spoke as if he was facing his subordinates.

However, Assistant Zhang was not unhappy because of Yang Yi's tone. He had seen this young man's ability, and thought of the jaw-dropping gaffe when he first knew that the author of "Song Dynasty" was him... and Later, under his command, the strong pleasure of harvesting when "Yun Huang" was operated step by step.

So he smiled wryly and half turned his head and said, "They didn't agree with our conditions, and they insisted on not leaving. Boss Luo is also arguing so much..."

Realizing that something was wrong with his emotions, Yang Yi took a deep breath, nodded apologetically in the rearview mirror, leaned on his back and stopped talking.

It's just that my mind always wanders to the borrowing room.

……

The reception room on the top floor of Siyue Culture.

Assistant Zhang pushed open the door in front, and then stood sideways at the door.In fact, Yang Yi's familiarity with this place is no lower than that of any senior employee, but in such a formal occasion, Assistant Zhang still insisted on making a full gesture.

As soon as he entered the door and looked up, he saw people on both sides of the long conference table. On one side were Rogo and his two editors in charge of copyright operations, and on the other side were four islanders in suits and ties. Behind the one-color glass lenses were all Modest eyes, but Yang Yi was very keen to discover the deep hidden sharpness behind these seemingly friendly eyes.

When these people heard the sound of the door opening and turned to Yang Yi, the boy couldn't help but get the expected surprise in his eyes. It is indeed very eye-catching for a middle school student to come in during such a formal business meeting.

However, what does the joy in the eyes of these people mean when they meet?Do you think you are too young to be fooled?Yang took in all the eyes of the crowd, and then walked to Rogo, and an operation editor next to him got up very interestingly, leaving the number two position to the boy.

"Excuse me, is this..."

Among the several islanders, the leader is only in his early forties, and there are wrinkles from the corners of his eyes, but he does not look stale and old. On the contrary, matching his eyes, it gives people a kind of Accumulation of experience.

Nomura Shinnai, the deputy director of Shueisha's Copyright Business Division, led two editors of "Shounen J Magazine" to Yuezhou this time, specifically for the neighboring rights of "Cloud Desolation. Kyushu Wandering".He has worked in Shueisha's copyright business department for nearly 15 years, and he can be regarded as a senior among the seniors in the club. This time, the high-level officials sent him to preside over the negotiation, which also placed high hopes on him.

"Yang Yi, the real copyright owner of "Yunhuang" is also the project marketing director of this comic." Mr. Fat usually has an image of an unreliable young man, and some lively young people in Siyue Culture also like to talk to him. Just kidding, but when it comes to the formal negotiating table, it immediately shows the calmness of a company leader.

The eyes of the two editors next to Nomura Shinna lit up. Their Shueisha's "Shounen J" can be considered as a newcomer, but most of those new writers were born in the 70s. The kid in front of him is actually a popular manga The author is really surprising.

But Nomura Shinnai is more concerned about Yang Yi's other identity - the project marketing director of the manga "Yunhuang"?A middle school student who is definitely under the age of 18?If the young boss on the opposite side hadn't made a joke, his previous joy might have been put away.

This child is definitely not someone who can be confused at will. On the contrary, it is probably very difficult for him to complete the task this time perfectly.

"Yang Jun actually has the dual identities of the author and marketing manager of "Clouds and Desolation". He didn't feel uncomfortable at all because of the age difference between the two, and then looked directly at Yang Yi with a smile: "Then I'll get straight to the point. May I ask Yang Jun, are you interested in selling the overseas copyright of "Clouds and Desolation"?"

After the translator at the far end synchronized the words of Nomura Shinnai, Yang Yi couldn't help but chuckle: "As far as I know, didn't Mr. Nomura come to Siyue to discuss the issue of neighboring rights? Why is it directly related to copyright now? "

This time, there is no need for an interpreter to convey it. Just from Yang Yi's uncontrollable sneer, Shinnai Nomura understood the failure of his temptation, but the deputy director with excellent psychological quality smiled without changing his face: "I made you laugh, after that So wanting the copyright also represents our Shueisha’s optimism for "Yunhuang". Of course, if Mr. Yang is not willing to sell the copyright, we can only talk about neighboring rights."

Hearing the meaning conveyed by the translator, Mr. Fatty and his subordinates couldn't help but roll their eyes suddenly, and the corners of their mouths twitched uncontrollably—because they are optimistic about other people's works, so they have to be tricked and possessed by clever words?After being pointed out by someone, I can still have the same thick and dark skill as a normal person, I am ashamed of myself.

On the contrary, Yang Yi, who has a deep understanding of the nature of the island people through the Internet and other channels in later generations, is not surprised. It is their business practice to discuss the matter and strive for the maximum benefit. Surprising.

"Is it just a neighboring right for agency distribution?" Yang Yi looked indifferent: "No problem, copyright introduction fee, my personal royalties... Well, the first printing is only 200 million copies, you should have done investigations beforehand, The first printing of "Yun Huang. Kyushu Wandering" in our country was also 50 copies, and then it was reprinted twice within a week. The sales volume in the first month was close to 100 million, although the population base of the island country is much smaller than our country , but considering your average consumption level, the audience base of comic works is 200 million copies, which is not much at all... As for the others, I will think about it later.”

You are not benevolent and I am unrighteous, asking for a lot of money to pay back the money, do you want to speak louder than a lion?Yang Yizao smiled indifferently. In the early years, when many domestic companies were dealing with foreign companies, there were countless examples of being cheated. No, I'm ready to go hungry.

"Yang Jun was joking." Nomura Shinna bowed very nationally: "Copyright introduction fees and royalties are not a problem, but the data that even the first-rate cartoonists can't do, please forgive me."

Yang Yi smiled noncommittally and shook his head. Now the first print run of 200 million looks scary, but in fact it is far from reaching the true level of the original "One Piece". You must know that after the original op50 volume, the first print run of this manga Print runs and sales have repeatedly broken records.

Even if the current "Yunhuang" has been adapted by Yang Yi, the main plot has not changed much, and those dead houses in the island country, for the heroine who has the characteristics of "cute" and "burning", Maybe there is more love, so Yang Yi, who has a lot of chips in his hands, doesn't even bother to talk to these people now.

After the release of another book in the "Yunhuang" series, "Ink Yanshi", on New Year's Day, the publishing houses that lined up to buy the agency rights might not be Shueisha.

"Mr. Nomura's words... are not very convincing." Yang Yi raised his lips, "Then what conditions can you achieve?"

Yang Yi talked to the people from the island country, and he didn't think there was anything wrong, but the two operation editors next to him, including Mr. Fat, couldn't help the inner turmoil.Although I know that this boy is not an ordinary boy, he can write books and do business... But when facing foreigners, especially senior colleagues in the publishing industry from abroad, even they themselves are cautious in their words and deeds, for fear of being caught by their opponents. Although catching any negligence is not harmful to the national system, it is not good to make people laugh and even affect the negotiation.

But Yang Yi is a good guy, the expression on his face has not changed much since he entered the door, he smiled casually, and even took a few sips of tea in time - you know, even Rogo The teacups were still almost full.

Nomura Shinna turned around and exchanged glances with the left and right, and then looked at Yang Yi seriously: "Yang Jun, if you can make the decision on this matter, then we will tell our bottom line."

Probably seeing that Yang Yi has an incredible right to speak on issues related to copyright, the deputy director of Shueisha simply ignored Mr. Fat, and nodded solemnly to the boy: "First of all, it is the right to speak to the boy except mainland China. Copyright... You don’t need to object, do you still have worldwide sales channels? So it is definitely a wise choice to entrust all overseas copyrights to our agency.”

After a pause, Shinnai Nomura continued: "In addition, there is the right to directly adapt the works. If Siyue Culture can make some small concessions and not set a threshold for the right to adapt, it will be of great benefit to all three of us. beneficial"

When the two editors of Siyue Culture heard this, they immediately became angry, but they couldn't help looking at Yang Yi with some worry. In terms of the right to adapt, because Yang Yi's initial agreement with Siyue left There is no room for negotiation. If he really bypasses the club now, Siyue will have to suffer from being dumb.

Nomura Shinnai, who sows dissension, is even more hated. This old devil is quite scheming, and he is familiar with the tricks of dividing and wooing.

Yang Yi shook his head, he didn't seem to care much about these conditions: "What else?"

"There is also the right to the image of the characters in your works, as well as the authorization of various peripheral products." Nomura Shinnai is more courteous, as if he is not asking some harsh conditions, but agreeing to the other party's request: "Yang Jun should I know that even if these rights are left in your hands, they won’t bring you much benefit, but we, who are more mature in related operations, can get the greatest benefit.”

"Finally, if there is a dispute, we hope that our court will arbitrate it. This is really because your country's legal provisions are not perfect. Please understand."

"Oh, is it?" Yang Yi was not angry when he heard these ridiculous reasons. Instead, he looked at Nomura Shinnai for a while, and then nodded seriously: "You islanders, you have always been In this way, the layout is small and the heart is big.”

Several islanders didn't know whether it was a compliment or a derogation for the sentence "great heart" conveyed by the translator, so they looked at Yang Yi collectively.

"Don't understand?" Yang Yi shrugged: "Okay, let's be honest, don't be too greedy."
