Yang Yi still has a lot of things. In the past two days, he also took the time to go to Sahara Press, and received Lu Dajie and Hudson from Lu Benjie.

The relationship between Qiyue and Sahara Press is not bad. It has always maintained a state of cooperation and tapping excellent online literature for physical publishing. This is also a major business of Sahara Press.

While Hu Da and Qiang came over, he mainly talked to Yang Yi about the issue of «Journey Under the Midnight Sun»'s electronic publishing authorization.

One month after the release of «Journey Under the Midnight Sun», physical sales unexpectedly squeezed into the top ten of the monthly list. You know, this is not a new book list, not to mention, «Journey Under the Midnight Sun» is a relatively small suspense literature. It can be said that it is a big miracle to have such achievements.

After all, not everyone is willing to read suspense literature. Most readers still prefer literary works or romantic novels with a slightly relaxed and sunny plot.

Of course, for works such as «Journey Under the Midnight Sun» that describe the protagonist so terribly, the audience should be more narrow. The reason why it can explode in a small way is because Yang Yi and Murphy are suddenly exposed to their marriage.

I have to say that this is not the hype they want. Although they caused a lot of trouble, they still brought benefits to them in some ways! It's no wonder why some people are obsessed with hyping themselves, and even throwing themselves dirty water!

One month after the «Journey Under the Midnight Sun» was released, it was not an unacceptable thing to launch an electronic publication. In addition, the conditions for the first reading were not bad. Yang Yi signed a relevant contract with them.

"The day before we set off, Universal Studio called us Editorial Department and said that we wanted to buy the film and television copyright of your" Prison Break. "Before leaving, Hu Da relayed a message to Yang Yi.

Universal Studio, this is not a small film company! In Hollywood in the United States, it was rated as one of the eight major film and television production companies. This is not only an evaluation of capital operation. In the creation of film and television works, box office income, Universal Studio can be called the existence of a giant.

Of course, the market for Chinese movies in the world is even bigger. Universal Studio will naturally not sit idly by. It also has subsidiaries in China. This time, I contacted Universal Studio China as a subsidiary.

According to Hu Da, the current status of the adaptation of online literature is still relatively unclear. Except for Yang Yi ’s "Soldier Assault" and "Sword", most of them are minor incidents, either the director is a rookie, or the management background is not enough. .

Even though the cooperation between Chen Fengchen and Yang Yi has set off a big storm, it has aroused the attention of many old-fashioned film and television companies to the Internet, but just like the Universal Studio today, there are mostly wait-and-sees and few starts!

Universal Studio began to pay attention to the novel "Prison Break" from the beginning of the year. The current president of China, Xu Zhongwei, has ambitiously wanted to shoot it. Of course, to use the resources of the parent company, after all, the background setting of this story is Occurred in the United States.

But they also hesitated for a long time, watching the popularity of "Prison Break", paying attention to the trend of the "Prison Break" plot, and even letting people use the vest to do polls in the book review area.

But a novel that is still serialized has too many uncertainties! Good writing in the early stage, who knows whether it will break in the later stage? So they waited and watched until now.

Until the serialized "Prison Break" is nearing completion now, Universal Studio began to contact and read. Unfortunately, they found the wrong person. Unlike other authors, Yang Yi ’s work and film and television copyrights are in their own hands. .

"I have given your contact information to the people of Universal Studio. Next, I will leave it to you to continue talking!" Hu Da and Yang Yi explained clearly, then laughed, "To be honest, we Editorial Department cheered last night For a long time, it was a rare opportunity to be seen by Universal Studio, and I hope that "Prison Break" can be filmed as soon as possible. This is a very exciting story, is n’t it? "

Yang Yi is not as optimistic as Hu Da. He does not want to easily sell the copyright of the film and television of his work. Since Universal Studio wants it, Yang Yi will check their attitude towards this work.

If you just want to make money casually, Yang Yi can not work with him regardless of whether they are Universal Studio or Universal Pictures! To shoot, you must show the attitude and investment of making a big film.

However, for Sahara Press, this is a good opportunity.

After Hu Da and Qiangzi left, Yang Yi asked Lu Benjie: "Is the negotiation team I let you set up ready before?"

Yang Yi is also a big business now. You do n’t need to go it alone and negotiate with others. One of the important meanings of winning Sahara Press is to let them take care of the copyright of those works.

"I'm ready. I asked the headhunting company to dig up six senior lawyers and managers in the entertainment industry from all over the country to form this negotiation team together." Lu Benjie said quickly.

"In the future, we still need to find some people who are familiar with transnational cases and the rules of the European and American entertainment circles. We must broaden our horizons and take the road of globalization!" Yang Yi said, "but this time the opportunity is good, let them try it. I ’m not very free, basically I have to ask them to talk to me and the people of Universal Studio. "

Next, Yang Yiluo listed some of his own standards by Lu Benjie and gave the negotiation team a criterion for judging.

Before leaving, Yang Yilin also asked with interest the situation of his book fans with great interest: "Yes, I told you last time, how about the feedback from book fans to hold a signing event?"

Lu Benjie also got up. He sat upright and said, "After we conveyed your thoughts to the fans, we received a lot of feedback, just because you did n’t give a certain time, they were all a little worried. You will zoom in on the family pigeons. "

Lu Benjie also looked closely at Yang Yi, his eyes seemed to convey the worried emotions of the fans.

Yang Yile, he said: "Who said I haven't set a time? I'm just very busy in these two months. I can't get away! So, you can arrange for six signings in the first two weeks of May. How about the sale? "

"Can you confirm the time? That's great!" Lu Benjie pushed his old-fashioned glasses, saying with some surprise.

Yang Yi also said to Lu Benjie with a smile: "Because we have limited time, we can only hold six signings for the time being, but it doesn't matter. In the future, we will continue to hold in other cities! To make up for them ..."

Yang Yi pointed to Lu Benjie and said: "You can solicit your suggestions on the website and see how you expect the signing to take place! Then you put a few suggestions with higher voices Collect it for me, I will pick three and satisfy them as much as possible! "

Lu Benjie feels that this is different from last year ’s Yang Yi. The former Yang Yi refused to sign the sale, but now he is proposing to make more tricks!

Is it because it has become a public figure now, "broken the jar"?

There are indeed reasons for this, but Lu Benjie did not know that the reason why Yang Yi became so friendly is that Murphy is pregnant in the end. His mood these days is like a bright spring, which has been very good!
