    The place where Yu Dong treated guests was a French restaurant called Bellis.  Wan Xiaohu is still quite awkward when eating French food with a knife and fork. He has eaten Western food before but is just not proficient in using a knife and fork.  If it weren't for the sake of grace, I would have wanted the waiter to bring me a pair of chopsticks.  After eating foie gras and drinking red wine, Yu Dong finally opened up the topic.  "Director Wan, Mr. Su, I'm going to treat you two to dinner today. Actually, you can guess the purpose. I went to the Beijing College Student Film Festival and watched "Waiting Alone" shot by Director Wan. I think it's a film with great meaning.  A movie with great potential. I really hope to get the agency rights for "Waiting Alone". What do you mean?" Wan Xiaohu and Su Ya looked at each other, and Su Ya started: "Mr. Yu knows about "Waiting Alone".  This is the first film that our Dandelion Film Company has planned to produce. It took a lot of effort to get a place in the film festival. The purpose of participating in the exhibition is actually to sell it. I want to know at what price Mr. Yu can buy it.  What kind of copyright? " "One million, how about buying out all the copyrights of "Waiting Alone"? "Su Ya shook her head: "It's too low." "It's unimaginable," said Yu Dong.  After testing it out, he smiled: "So, what kind of price do you two want me to offer? Director Wan, I will ask you to call me your lifelong friend. We are alumni. From now on, we will meet again without looking up. Don't talk in circles. I  I will do my best to buy the copyright of "Waiting Alone", and you have to give me a discount. I don't have much money. " In this era, people's feelings are still very simple, and alumni are more or less friends.  .  Seeing Yu Dong's sincerity, Wan Xiaohu stopped being pretentious and said: ""Waiting Alone" has three sales channels, the first is theater release, the second is DVD release, and the third is TV copyright sales. I and  Su Ya plans to sell the copyright separately. Which copyright does Brother Dong want to obtain? ""Release and distribution." "If the theater releases the copyright, you will be responsible for all operating expenses. We will only take the share of the box office below 5 million.  Eight and two, 5 to 10 million, six and four, more than 10 million, split 50 to 50. What does Brother Dong think of this plan? " Yu Dong thought for a minute and said, "The plan is feasible, but what about the DVD distribution rights?  Wan Xiaohu had already considered the sales plan and said directly: ""Waiting Alone" has been aimed at DVD release from the beginning. In terms of DVD release, our requirements are higher. I want to introduce a fresh model to Brother Dong.  I call this method a guaranteed split. The guaranteed copyright fee of 2 million is divided according to sales. If the total is less than 4 million, we only take the guaranteed fee. If it exceeds 4 million, we will continue to split it 50-50. Brother Dong thinks this plan will work.  No?" "Is there any room for bargaining?" "To be honest, if Brother Dong and I were not alumni, I would think this price is too low.  I think, except for the slightly shabby cost of the film, it is ahead of other films in the College Student Film Festival in all aspects. To be honest, after the premiere, I heard many college students saying, "Waiting Alone".  It's the best movie this year." Wan Xiaohu didn't lie. The rave reviews at the film festival greatly increased his confidence.  Yu Dong pondered: "The minimum fee of 200, plus distribution and public relations, it can't work without 3 million. There is a big gap between this and my previous thoughts. To be honest, I am a little undecided." "Brother Dong,  We are not in a hurry now, you can think about it slowly," Su Ya added to Yu Dong's anger at the right time, "But I have to remind Brother Dong that there is still more than half a month left for the College Student Film Festival. With the excellence of "Waiting Alone"  , more and more distributors will come to us. In fact, we were only halfway through the filming, and a distribution company called Yamei Films contacted us, but we couldn¡¯t reach an agreement on the price. ¡± Yu Dong.  Gritting his teeth: "If Bona Culture belongs to me alone, I will immediately agree to your price. However, after all, I still have a few partners, and I need to inform them. If you give me a few days, I think I will  If you convince them, can you postpone contacting other film companies for me?" Su Ya shook her head: "If someone pays, we will sell the copyright. But we can give Brother Dong a guarantee that we will always give him the lowest price, and others will not.  I'll give you a guarantee of 3 million, but I won't be able to take away the copyright. " "Okay, it's settled. You two eat slowly, I'll pay the bill, and then I won't accompany you. I can't wait to go back to discuss it. I'm extremely sorry."  After Yu Dong finished speaking, he didn't even care about etiquette and left in a hurry.  Su Ya and Wan Xiaohu were left staring with big eyes.  "Here keep eating. If you don't eat for someone's treat, it's free." Wan Xiaohu chuckled and immersed himself in the law.During the national dinner.  He rarely had Western food in his previous life, so he just had a good time.  Su Ya was just average about Western food, eating it in small bites, but watching Wan Xiaohu gobble it up, she found it very interesting.  When negotiating with Yu Dong, Wan Xiaohu acted like a veteran who had been in society for more than ten years, and his aura was not less than that of Yu Dong.  For a moment, he looked like a country boy who had never seen the big world, which was really interesting.  "Look at what I'm doing, you don't want to eat, just bring it if you don't want to eat, it's a shameful waste!" Wan Xiaohu looked a little uncomfortable to Su Ya, "What's the matter, I've never seen an old man eating before!" Su Ya laughed,  Pushing a piece of foie gras over: "You are not in a hurry, why don't you eat slower?" "Time, time, for me, the most lacking thing is time. I want to make more in the effective time.  As the old saying goes, every day that goes by, you have to look at yourself to see what you have done today and whether you can do more.  How long does it take to make a movie" "You are only a sophomore, so time is long." "Then you are so boring to live.  After finishing the foie gras, Wan Xiaohu thought for a moment and said, "Who knows, I can start my career while I'm young. Maybe when I succeed in my career, I won't need to torture myself too much."  You will relax and live a normal life. " "Then what is your position for a successful career?" "Make good movies, sell good box office, break out of the Asian circle, go to Hollywood, become a big director, and win.  Oscar, marrying Bai Fumei, reaching the pinnacle of life Thinking about it this way is a little exciting." "Haha, haha, are you too ambitious about yourself?" "Only when you have a dream can you fly.  "Wan Xiaohu scratched his head and said in a specially prepared melancholy manner, "Life is just a lot of multiple-choice questions accumulated. I don't know how I will go on. Maybe, I will go down a path of no return.  Road, in a certain year and month, when I got old, I said to myself, 'I think of running under the sunset that afternoon, that was my lost youth.' Maybe I will never say to myself that I miss the past.  , just because I am no longer like before" Su Ya put her chin on her hands and said curiously: "What do you write about life?"
