In the end, He Chen still couldn't persuade He Yi. He watched helplessly as He Yi went into the room, closed the door, and shut his heart out inside.
He Chen felt a deep sense of helplessness towards his older brother. As someone with a telepathic connection, he knew what He Yi was thinking, but he felt that He Yi was too deeply involved.
Pain can be remembered, but not wallowed in; one must always look forward. However, He Yi is so sentimental that he finds it harder to forget the past than anyone else.
At this moment, the editor sent a message saying that someone had their eye on the IP development rights of "Dragon Ball Continent" and wanted to buy it to make an animation, asking what his price range was.
He Chen asked, "How much can they offer?"
The editor explained, "The other company isn't very big, and their desire to buy isn't very strong. They're just making an initial inquiry, so they won't offer too high a price, probably around 2 million."
The price of 2 million is far from worthy of the currently wildly popular "Dragon Ball Continent".
The last book with the same popularity as "Dragon Ball Continent" had an animation copyright that cost as much as 5 million, more than double the price. Bringing that up would be an insult to "Dragon Ball Continent".
However, He Chen was not angry. He simply said, "3 million, no less than that, and the payment must be made quickly. I need it urgently."
He knew this was definitely a price that could be negotiated.
Guoman took the eight million and directly found an agent to have me invest in He Chen's animation. The agent acted very quickly.
I heard He Chen ask, "Is it bad? Does he think it will be a hit?"
The man in the Chinese animation had one hand in his pocket, watching me close the door. A faint smile appeared on his fair face, and I felt that perhaps that was also wrong.
He Chen replied cheerfully, "No."
As the anime's theme song reached its first half, a long list of acknowledgments appeared on the screen, and the Chinese animation studio immediately spotted the agent's name at the top of the list.
He Yi has never been bad at anything. He can prioritize special effects over plot, and vice versa. People who rarely come to the cinema are only willing to give Xiang Jin chance after chance because of their feelings for He Yi.
During the interview, I heard many viewers say, "Damn, is the plot of He Yi so shallow? The special effects are really amazing, wow, let me show you who did it."
Yes, Guoman easily picked up where I left off, “Before you make money, let’s go eat hot pot, Brother Qi. You know, no hot pot restaurant is bad, but they’re not cheap. It’ll cost at least 700 yuan for two people.”
That day, Guoman and He Chen bumped into each other again in the living room. He Chen's expression was noticeably less bad. I still glanced at him, but for once, he stopped behind me and said, "No one's investing in your animation anymore. Although the amount is small, if you're careful, you should be able to finish that film. Once that film is off the screens, you'll be broke. Then..."
When the audience member saw that He Chen's name was not listed among the directors, producers, colorists, set designers, etc., they exclaimed "Damn!" seven times in a row. "That guy is really something. You should become his advocate and recommend him to others. He's amazing."
The Chinese animation team snapped back to reality and replied, "It will definitely be a hit, Brother Qi."
I paused for a moment, as if thinking about what I should have done before I lost the money. Long-term poverty had robbed me of my imagination.
After saying that, I hurried back to my room, but I forgot to take a can of iced Coke from the refrigerator.
Just as he was determined to rise above others and become the pillar supporting his family, you were always happy to support him.
On the day the film officially ended its run, He Chen gave me a movie ticket, probably wanting me to see my work. Guo An and Xiang Jin sat at the back of the theater, quietly watching the film from beginning to end.
As expected, when the editor in charge contacted the other party, they quickly responded and readily agreed to the requests.
Time flies, and He Chen's animation was finally completed and successfully released in theaters. It was an animated film, though it didn't have a large number of screenings.
The contract was finalized in three days, and the payment arrived in seven days.
