Andy watched Carl hang up with a smile on his face, picked up the coffee that Carl's secretary had brought in, and took a sip. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"I really don't understand, why did you ask me to buy the film and television adaptation rights of "Twilight"? Wait, Andy, you're not really going to start a studio, are you?"

Carl grumbled, a little dumbfounded as he spoke, and asked with a look of disbelief.

"Hehe, why not? Making movies is very profitable, and I do have this plan, but instead of starting my own company, I fell in love with Summit Entertainment. Andy said with a good smile.

Karl's eyes lit up, but he smiled wryly at the thought of the person he had just spoken to on the phone.

"Andy, your idea is a bit whimsical, although Summit Entertainment started by distributing films produced by Universal that were directly put into the DVD market and some UMD movies, but since the company's three partners are ready to transform into making movies, they have invited Rob Freman, the former executive chairman of Paramount, to be the CEO, Rob is not a simple person, if you want to buy Summit, the price will not be too small. ”

Andy shrugged indifferently and said with a smile: "I don't plan to spend money to buy Summit, I just want to control, as for whether its CEO is powerful or not, who cares before becoming a shareholder of Summit Entertainment." However, whether I can successfully enter the summit board depends on whether you can successfully win the copyright of "Twilight", and the more insiders should understand how important a good IP series is. ”

Carl looked at Andy with a bitter face, and said with a little pain: "But isn't it too exaggerated to spend 67 million to buy the film and television rights of a novel, so that the money in our company's account is almost drained, and it is just to maintain normal daily expenses." ”

Andy gave Carl an angry look, "Don't talk nonsense, this matter must be done as soon as possible, didn't you tell me that you had contacted Stephanie Mayer this morning?

"Hehe, what can I do, this woman is now waiting for the price to sell, and she is naturally welcome for us to join the bidding ranks, but she also understands that the current 5 million is already very high, and after I quote 6 million, she said that she will consider it carefully, but it really doesn't work, so I will go to Arizona to meet and talk to her. Carl smiled bitterly, knowing that he couldn't change Andy's decision, so he could only do his best to get things done.

"Well, let's go for a trip, so that after signing the contract with Warner, you will leave, this matter cannot be delayed, I am afraid that the summit will be desperate, they are a group of gamblers. Andy is still a little worried, to avoid long nights and dreams, it is safest to get it as soon as possible.

"I... Well, you're the boss, you have the final say. By the way, did you look at the billboard, you are in the top ten, 360,000 copies were sold last week, and the music director of Universal just called to congratulate you, he said to call you, your phone has been busy. Carl put away his tangled emotions and talked about happy things.

"Hehe, I watched it, I was quite surprised, I didn't expect a country music to be so popular, Ivana has been on the phone in the morning, and I will call him back in a while, I always have to thank you. "When it comes to the sales of the single CD, Andy is still very happy. Especially as a crossover singer, it is already a great thing to be able to rank in the top ten on the billboard.

While Andy and Carl were chatting, Warner Films people also arrived, and after everyone met in the conference room, they introduced each other, exchanged a few words, and then took their seats and began to complete the signing.

The terms of both parties had been negotiated a long time ago, so there were no twists and turns, and after the lawyers of both parties checked the contract, Andy and Richard signed the contract on behalf of their respective companies.

After exchanging contracts and signing them, Andy and Richard shook hands to celebrate the success of their cooperation, and as for the copyright fee of 100,000 US dollars, Andy threw it to Carl, after all, he was indeed a bit cruel to the copyright company's blood-drawing.

Seeing off Warner and his party, Andy looked at Carl, who was packing up his things in the office and preparing to leave for Arizona immediately, and instructed again: "You go this time, you must buy the copyright of the novel, this is really important... ”

"Oh, my God, you've said it a dozen times, I know, I'll definitely bring it back, negotiation can't be too urgent, everyone likes beautiful knives, Stephanie is not a stupid person, she wants to see the three raise each other's prices now, I know how to do it, you can rest assured." By the way, are you going back to New York next?" Carl was speechless, a little unable to stand Andy's nagging, and said separately.

"Well, don't worry, I'm going to San Francisco first, the game company's new game is about to go on the market, why don't I have to go there myself, after all, it's my ambition. Once I'm done with the game company, I'll fly straight to New York and won't be back until the election is over in November. Andy told him about his itinerary.

"That's okay, then I wish your game a big hit, the plane at half past three, I won't talk to you, it's too late if you don't leave, let's call, rest assured, I will definitely buy "Twilight", after all, the price we offered, Stephanie is hard to refuse, the key now is that we are just a copyright company, not a film company, she is still a little hesitant about this matter, I will convince her. Carl packed his things, picked up his briefcase, and said to Andy.

"Well, thank you. Have a nice trip, I'll wait for your call. Andy drops Carl out of the company building, and the car carrying Carl and the four of them quickly drives out of Andy's sight.

Andy looked at the time and said to Joseph, "Let's go too, go back and pack up, we're going to leave for San Francisco too." ”

Joseph nodded, took out his phone and called Kenny, who was in the villa, to ask him to prepare in advance.

Since this time it was flying directly from San Francisco to New York, Andy needed to pack a lot of things, of course, because this time in New York for two months, the cat Laura and the two Doberman will be brought along, this is the time to cultivate feelings, if you are separated for two months, it will inevitably produce a little sense of alienation, and it is wise to take it back to New York, and it will not cost a few dollars, but it just needs three small things to bump around.

Back at home, Andy just casually packed a few clothes, checked in the study to see if there was anything missing, took out a few documents from the safe that recorded some things when he just crossed over, found a lighter and lit it, threw it into a stainless steel basin, watched the documents that should not exist quickly turn to ashes, and went to the bathroom to rinse them with water.

The last bit of worry also disappeared with the flow of water, all the things he had already remembered in his mind, and those big event records had no value to continue to exist, especially when he needed to leave for two months to prevent all accidents from happening, even if the security level of his home was already very high, and the alarm device was directly connected to the Los Angeles Police Department, but this matter was too threatening to Andy, and destroying it was the best way.

Carrying an LV travel bag, he said goodbye to Liu Yan in the living room, "Aunt Liu, you can live here if you want, if you want to go back to your daughter's house, I can only come back in November." ”

"I live here, my daughter can go back to see them at any time, it's always wrong to have no one at home, don't worry. Liu Yan said with a kind smile, hugging Andy goodbye.

Andy picked up his travel bag, took the little Laura into his arms, whistled, Quicksilver and the witch screamed twice, and ran out of that corner, ran to Andy, squatted down, and looked up at Andy.

"Let's go, I'm going to take you to San Francisco. With that, he walked outside, and the two Dobermans followed Andy.

Andy watched Quicksilver and the witch jump into the car, honestly squatting in the trunk, and couldn't help but chuckle twice, the two little things were well-behaved, sat in the car, put the travel bag aside, and said to Kenny, "Let's go." ”

Coming to the airport, Andy put the three little guys into the pet flight box that he had bought a long time ago, little Laura was a little nervous, constantly meowing, Andy had to reassure it again and again, no way, it took 6 hours to drive to San Francisco, and it was already midnight.

The consignment of pets is not very troublesome, because Andy's pets are all documented, the only thing is that the three little things are a little restless and irritable, Quicksilver and the witch are better, after all, after a period of training, little Laura is a little headache for Andy, because little Laura is a small animal that cannot be sedated, so it can only be comforted as much as possible.

Because Andy's three pets are in the growth period, they can be counted as small animals in terms of size, and they can be checked in as luggage, so that Andy does not need to go to the airport two to three hours in advance to check in procedures, and can directly get on the plane with Andy, and they can also be taken out as soon as they arrive in San Francisco.
