Dawson politely handed over the business card and said:
"I'm Dawson and I'm the president of Dawn Films. Our company has produced films such as The Matrix and Pirates of the Caribbean 2."
Pirates of the Caribbean 2, has been released, let's not mention it for a while.
But The Matrix is currently being shown in the UK. Although Rowling did not watch it for financial reasons, she has also heard the name of the movie.
I also learned about the film's amazing box office from a friend.
After hearing what Dawson said, Rowling was even more confused.
Such a big man, what to do with her, shouldn't he be a liar?
"What do you want from me?"
Rowling looked at Dawson vigilantly, and at the same time carefully hugged her daughter from the side to prevent Dawson from suddenly doing anything to hurt her daughter.
Dawson pretended not to see her movements, and said solemnly:
"I want to buy the rights to your novel, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone."
As soon as these words came out, great joy flooded Rowling's heart.
However, thinking that she hasn't finished writing yet, Rowling frowned and said:
"But I haven't finished writing it yet."
"It's okay, we can buy and pay in advance, as long as you can completely finish the novel within three months after we pay."
"Then, how much did you pay?"
Rowling urgently needed money at this time. Seeing that Dawson was determined to buy, she directly asked the price.
"One million dollars to buy all the rights to Harry Potter."
"Subsequently, if we need to create a sequel with this name, we will pay you additional money to create it."
"You can't use any Harry Potter elements to create other novels in the follow-up. If you want to use Harry Potter elements, you must get our permission."
"And the sequel to the subsequent creation of Harry Potter, the copyright automatically belongs to us."
Rowling just hesitated for a second, then responded immediately:
"Okay, if I sign a contract, when will the money come in."
"When will the contract be signed, and when will the money arrive!"
Dawson said with a smile.
"Okay, I can sign the contract anytime."
Rowling said directly.
Dawson's meaning is very clear. He bought Harry's copyright with one million dollars. If there is a need to create a sequel, he will contact her again and pay another fee.
However, she can no longer create Harry Potter-related novels by herself, and can only write other works.
However, for Rowling at this time, these are not important.
The astronomical figure of one million dollars drove her head.
You know, she now only earns two hundred pounds a month.
One million dollars, buying some property, or buying a stable financial product is enough for her to eat and wear, and she can easily raise her daughter.
Now that Rowling has been rejected for many years, Rowling has long lost the idea of making tens of millions for a book.
A book that can earn tens of thousands of dollars and help her out of her current predicament is enough.
What's more, Dawson offered a million-dollar price.
Seeing that everything was going so smoothly, Dawson smiled and took out a contract from his bag and said:
"This is the contract, you can take a look, or if you want me to find a lawyer for you, I will pay the lawyer's fee."
Rowling hesitated for a while, but still said:
"Then trouble you."
As a college student with a normal IQ, Rowling knew that there were too many contract traps.
Without the help of a professional lawyer, it is easy to be fooled, fall into the trap, and carry huge debts.
Dawson's initiative to help find a lawyer won him a huge favor with Rowling.
The little **** the side seemed to understand something and asked innocently:
"Mom, can we eat delicious food soon?"
"Yes, baby, you are right."
Rowling hugged her daughter and whispered.
After a while, a lawyer appeared in front of the two of them.
After showing the documents, the lawyer explained each item and item of the contract for Rowling item by item.
Make sure there are no pitfalls in the contract, everything fits Dawson's description, and the penalty for not completing the timeout is just a refund of the million dollar.
In addition to the very severe punishment for her other Harry Potter creation, this contract could not be more forgiving.
This made Rowling deeply feel Dawson's sincerity.
With the contract, the three of them and a child came to the bank together. After signing the contract, Dawson directly arranged for the finance to transfer money to Rowling, including a tax guarantee of $1 million, and then left here.
Looking at Dawson's back, Rowling gave birth to a trace of reluctance.
Although Dawson is not handsome, his demeanor of a successful person, coupled with these above-hearted behaviors, still won the strong favor of Rowling, a divorced lady.
However, this thought was only fleeting. Looking at the half a million pounds left after converting dollars into pounds on her bank card, Rowling showed a satisfied smile on her face.
After kissing her daughter in her arms, Rowling smiled and said:
"Baby, what do you want to eat today?"
"I want to eat lobster."
The clever little girl doesn't know much. Seeing her mother's happy appearance, she directly talks about the best food she has ever eaten in her life.
"Okay, mom will take you to eat lobster!"
Rowling, who has paused her writing work, is going to have a good meal and then go shopping.
After cultivating the spirit, complete the writing of Harry Potter at the fastest speed.
At that time, with this million dollars, she can put it into her pocket with complete peace of mind.
・・・
MGM, the executives in the conference room, looked at each other after reading some of the Harry Potter content in the newspaper.
One of the relatively young executives looked at Kevin and said:
"It's an English novel? And it's not quite finished yet?"
Kevin nodded.
"Yes, it is expected that this novel will be published in the near future."
"What we're going to do is, as soon as it comes out, put it directly on the bestseller list."
"Then the news of the adaptation will be released immediately, and a new series of films will be prepared at the same time."
Although I don't know why Kevin had to choose this novel, because of Kevin's previous achievements, the executives present did not raise any objections.
But around Kevin's decision, he began to make plans.
Strive to make Kevin the first wave of business plans after MGM boss, directly to the greatest success.
In the end, after deciding on a specific implementation plan, Kevin told Leiter to do everything as usual, turned around and left MGM.
Chapter 207 Publicity
Time comes ten days later.
Kevin handles the official business of the three companies of MGM, Dawn Films, and Marvel Entertainment step by step.
Today's office location is at Dawn Movies.
dong dong dong!
"Come in!"
There was a knock on the door, and Kevin said directly.
The door of Kevin's exclusive office was pushed open by Mitt.
"Kevin, we have already cut the promotional video you want."
"The film can be finished in about ten days at most."
Pushing the door open, Mitt told Kevin about the production progress of Rush Hour in his loud voice.
Kevin nodded.
"Wait and find Dawson for three million dollars, and then let the male and female protagonists go to the TV show to promote it, and don't forget to bring the promotional video."
"Before the movie is officially released, we have to copy the heat."
"Then, do you want to participate in the promotion together?"
Mitt asked in disbelief.
Pirates of the Caribbean 2, the sequel to the blockbuster movie, was relatively less stressful.
But this rush hour was almost entirely filmed by him and Zach.
If the movie screwed up, it would be the two of them who would be most affected.
Even if they screw up, Kevin will still support them, but they are too embarrassed to keep Kevin losing money.
Therefore, for each film, they make their best efforts to make the film successful.
Among them, La Kevin's help in publicity is one of the efforts.
"No, I believe this movie will be a success."
"Others don't know, don't you guys know about Jack Chen's efforts?"
Mitt smirked.
That's why I stopped mentioning the words that Kevin helped to promote.
Jack Chen, a series of performances in the movie, really opened their eyes, not to mention the connotation.
Purely from the film itself, it is very entertaining and relaxed.
There are intense and exciting pursuits, and there are also funny scenes from Jim Carrey. The two are mixed together to form a perfect chemical reaction.
According to Mitt's own vision, this is definitely a wonderful commercial blockbuster.
"When the editing of the film is completed, I will make the final trimming, and make sure that there will be no problems, so you can rest assured."
Mitt chuckled, answering Kevin's words.
"By the way, what about Zack Snyder?" Kevin asked casually without seeing Snyder.
"He's still editing. I'm not sending a promotional video, why don't I have a rest?"
"You go to Zach to get the editing of the first edition as soon as possible. After editing, I will give you a long vacation."
"Then I'm looking forward to it."
Mitt responded, and then turned back to the editing room to start editing.
Kevin left the company after handing over the specific arrangements of these publicity work to Dawson.
The training of the Eight Vajra Gongs is really good.
Coupled with the recuperation of drugs, Kevin found the fun of his youth again. For this reason, he swam around his many female friends during this time.
After learning from their mouths that they were indeed answering more violently than before.
Kevin became more diligent in his practice of the Eight Vajra Gongs.
