Chapter 126 Overseas TV Stations
"Foreign copyright holder?"
Zhang Chu asked in confusion, "What are they asking me for?"
"I'll buy you the right to adapt the TV series "Sherlock"!"
Zhou Kang's words were amazing. They were obviously the main recommendation of "Psychological Sin", but "Detective Sherlock" was actually sold.
Zhang Chu looked at Xu Ji opposite the seat, but he didn't hide it and asked: "I'll be back soon."
"They only have one translator here, and the translation is not very good. I only know that one is bbc and a few are from the United States." Zhou Kang had already given his English to the teacher. He could only understand a few simplest words and could not communicate with foreign copyright holders.
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Chu said to Xu Ji with a little apology: "Director Xu, if I have an urgent matter here, I have to go to the booth. Let's talk more about it next time we have the chance."
"I'll go and watch the fun, don't you know if you're welcome?" Xu Ji stood up. He was really worried that "Psychological Crime" would be bought and ruined by foreigners.
Good books these days are not easy to find. I finally saw a domestic one, so I must cherish it.
Zhang Chuke did not disclose whether those foreign copyright holders came to buy "Psychological Crime" or "Detective Sherlock". Anyway, it doesn't matter if there is one more person.
"Of course we welcome it! It's definitely a bright future!"
Mr. Xu Ji, who was in his sixties, walked steadily and followed Zhang Chu quickly towards the booth of Menglong Culture Company.
At this time, many people were gathered outside the booth. After all, most of the film and television copyright trading conferences were Chinese faces. Suddenly, so many blonde and blue-eyed foreigners appeared, which must be quite eye-catching.
Many reporters rushed over after hearing the news, and they thought it was "Psychological Crime" that attracted these foreign copyright holders.
...
"You're back." Zhou Kang quickly pulled Zhang Chu in front of him, and his eyes saw Xu Ji behind him, "Is this Director Xu?!"
"It's him. Just now, Director Xu and I were talking about the adaptation of the script of "Psychological Crime", so you were anxious to call me back. Who are they?"
"The British BBC TV and American CBS seem to have hbo, and they seem to have a crush on "Detective Sherlock".
Wu Tong added that Zhang Chu's two books have become popular in the eyes of film and television producers, which has made Wu Tong want to tie Zhang Chu to the chariot.
After clarifying his idea, Zhang Chu said to Zhou Kang: "Uncle Zhou, please help me receive Director Xu. I'll talk to those foreigners and see what they really want."
"Okay, okay, did you agree on Director Xu?"
Zhou Kang was worried that Zhang Chu would be fooled. Although Xu Ji was a big director, this guy also fooled people a lot. The copyright of "Psychological Crime" could not be handed over so easily.
People's hearts are restless, and Zhang Chu forced himself to calm down. He replied: "Not yet, just treat him as a potential partner."
After Zhang Chu finished speaking, he sorted out his clothes and walked towards the foreigner in the lounge next door.
...
"Joseph, I haven't seen you for a long time. I really didn't expect that we would meet in China!"
A bearded white man greeted someone next to him warmly.
The other party reached out and smiled, "Baker, you hbo wants this story of him too?"
"Who doesn't want such a big news? This is our British story and should be left to us bbc to shoot."
Those who make TV series are inevitably familiar faces. These four TV stations are among the best. Since "Sherlock" is not bad, I will buy it.
People who are familiar with American dramas are all familiar with bbc, hbo, cbs and fox TV stations. Among them, the most familiar to domestic audiences are bbc documentaries, various paid TV series by Hbo, CBS's ace comedy and several reality shows, and fox TV station also has quite a lot of ace American dramas.
When Zhang Chu walked in, the people immediately stopped greetings and turned their attention to the young man in front of them.
What kind of young man can write a good article and take the Conan Doyle Foundation to court?
Baker looked at the boy in front of him seriously. His childish appearance was definitely no more than 20 years old. His son, who had just gone to college, looked more mature than him.
With a handsome and handsome appearance, sunshine and warm smile on his face, he is obviously a youth idol, but it turns out to be the goal of his trip.
"You must be Zhang Chu? I am HBO's Baker, I'm very happy to see you." The bearded man Baker stretched out his hand.
The translator who had been invisible for a long time suddenly stood up and wanted to translate Baker's words, but he heard Zhang Chu on the opposite side responding fluently in an Oxford accent.
"It's me who have watched many shows on your TV station, and they are all very good!"
Not long after he got the junior English proficiency, Zhang Chu is now in handy. His pure Oxford accent surprised several TV representatives, especially Richard, the representative of BBC, who asked directly: "Wow, have you lived in London before?"
The UK has always been known as a gentleman country, while the British accent is known as the sexiest accent in the world. In the past, it was a popular spoken pronunciation in public schools, Oxford University, and Cambridge University, but later adopted as a standard English pronunciation by radio stations. Many British people cannot speak such a straight voice.
"No, I have always lived in China, but I often watch your bbc programs and radio, so I learned a little." Zhang Chu was embarrassed to gild his face. The primary English proficiency in the system lottery did not allow him to be like Shakespeare, Shelley, Dickens and others, but there was no problem with the daily use and communication in language and text.
The translator suddenly remembered that the young man in front of him who was very happy to talk to the others was still a great man with full score in the college entrance examination English!
I accidentally gained a little more reputation. Zhang Chu didn't know that this was contributed by the translator next to me, and he was pretending to behave anytime and anywhere.
"Gentlemen, I'm sorry, I'll ask directly, why do you want to shoot this TV series? It doesn't even have an English version. Have you really read this book?"
As a straightforward boy, Zhang Chu asked a question that had been in his mind for a long time. His "Detective Sherlock" only has simplified Chinese and traditional Chinese versions. There are two versions of them because they can be converted directly and do not require translation.
Joseph, wearing black-framed glasses, smiled and replied: "I have never read your book, but I know it tells the story of Sherlock Holmes living in the modern era. Believe me, there are already many netizens in the United States who are curious about this story. We just need such a story, and we have also Chinese employees who have read, evaluated, and combined the evaluation of your work and global popularity, so we want to buy it directly."
Joseph's words were approved by the rest of the people. How could such a large company have no Chinese and Chinese employees?
