Chapter 457 "Five-color Parrot Picture"(1/2)
Looking at the brand new book in front of you, you could still smell the faint smell of ink in your nose, Liu Qingshan was a little stunned:
"Are you publishing a book again?"
Gu Yaya and Lu Xiaofeng both blinked: Why do you say again?
They didn't know about the book Titanic, because Tan Yong took it back and found someone to translate it first. It probably would take some time to publish it.
Xiao Li was still excited: "Liu, don't you want to see our works? There are half of mine and half of yours in it."
Liu Qingshan was full of dark lines because he remembered the lyrics: Military merit, half of it is yours and half of it is mine.
He finally remembered that when he visited the dinosaur fossils, he told the story of Jurassic Park nonsense, and Xiao Li was very interested.
Unexpectedly, this guy actually wrote this book.
Take a closer look, the names of the two authors spit out from the dragon's mouth on the cover: Isn't the one behind Qingshan-Liu?
"Liu, this book has a very good sales in North America. I heard that it is also very popular in Europa. There are also Hollywood directors who contacted me to buy the copyright."
Xiao Li talked endlessly. Liu Qingshan remembered that when he first met this guy, this guy seemed to be like this, with a little decadence. Why did he feel like he was injected with blood after writing a book?
Liu Qingshan calculated that the last time Li went back, it was only three or four months since now. This guy was able to make the book and publish it smoothly. It seemed that the energy was quite good.
Of course, Xiao Li has reason to be excited. He was originally marginalized in the family and belonged to the transparent person.
The family's industry is nothing to do. Just wait for death and be a playboy.
There is never a shortage of such people in large families abroad.
But Xiao Li also had a dream in his heart. He wanted to break free from the shackles of his family and make a career by himself.
Unfortunately, he lived to be almost thirty years old and still achieved nothing. Even he himself felt that this might be the case in his life.
It was not until the last time I came to China, met Liu Qingshan, and heard an interesting story. After Xiao Li returned to China, he immediately buried his head in creating for a month.
After writing it, I immediately contacted the publishing house. He still had this energy and it was soon released.
It started to sell very well, but later, President Smith of the Dinosaur Research Association and some other members recommended it, which made the book become popular all of a sudden.
Xiao Li turned into a bestselling writer. I can only say that this world is too magical and has infinite possibilities.
For a moment, Xiao Li became busy, signed and sold books, went to the TV station for interviews, and also appeared on a well-known talk show in the United States.
These novel experiences seemed to have opened the door to a new world for Xiao Li, and he felt that he was alive again!
You know, everything he has obtained now is not with the power of the family, but with the first time he has gained recognition through his own abilities.
All of this originated from that trip to the East and that young friend of the East, so Xiao Li rushed over to report good news to Liu Qingshan.
Of course, Liu Qingshan didn't know Xiao Li's mental journey. He looked through the book and found that there were many illustrations in it.
Almost every dinosaur appears, there are responsive illustrations and introductions, which look quite professional.
Of course, these are professional, and they were created by Xiao Li invited experts from the Dinosaur Research Association.
The writing level is average, but the advantage is that the plot is more intense and exciting. At least it seems to be much better than Victor's big ship.
"Liu, we can share the royalties equally, or you can account for 60%, after all, creativity is priceless."
Xiao Li is indeed better than Victor, a profitable businessman, at least he has no chance of getting the royalties.
Make another royalty fee?
Liu Qingshan always feels like he is unintentionally planting willows and willows, but of course the money delivered to the door is not worthy of being released.
So he smiled and nodded: "Li, we are friends, so we can divide it equally, so it will be fair to everyone."
Best-selling books are still very profitable, especially such big IPs, which will benefit more from adapting rights and peripherals in the future.
Xiao Li nodded with a smile, as if he had expected this result, and then he hooked his finger to the follower behind him, and immediately a big man brought a check.
Xiao Li put the check on the table with a smile:
"My friend, I will be very busy in the next period of time and may not have time to come to you, so I will pay you a part of the royalties in advance."
It's more particular than Victor's old profiteer.
“Happy cooperation, Lee.”
Liu Qingshan glanced at the check and couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth: Isn't it back for foreign exchange selling rice?
The two reporters who had been staring at each other secretly glanced at the numbers on the check and carefully counted the string of zeros behind them.
ah!
Lu Xiaofeng exclaimed, and then quickly covered her mouth with her little hands.
Although Gu Yaya didn't scream, she was shocked: 500,000, it's still US dollars!
Even the 500,000 Chinese currency is already amazing enough, let alone the US dollar.
But when I looked at Liu Qingshan again, he still looked calm, as if this was not 500,000, but five dollars.
Lu Xiaofeng and Gu Yaya couldn't help but feel a little hot: This is the difference.
Xiao Li was also a little surprised. He knew more about China and knew that this money was definitely a huge sum of money for the current Chinese.
But looking at Liu Qingshan's expression, he really didn't force himself to be calm. It seems that he has seen big money.
Thinking about some of the information he found, he felt relieved: Yes, compared with 10 million pounds, this can only be considered a little money.
So he said with a smile: "Liu, I'm looking forward to it now. Are there any better ideas in your mind?"
"I found that I've fallen in love with writing now, and writing makes me happy."
"How come it is so fast? Do you really think the inspiration is Dacai?"
Liu Qingshan spread his hands at him.
Xiao Li didn't think so: "Actually, your Titanic has a good idea, but unfortunately, the guy who works with you has a very poor writing skills."
Even Liu Qingshan admitted that Victor's creative talent is indeed worse than Xiao Li. Of course, Xiao Li is not much higher, so don't laugh at him if he steps fifty.
Liu Qingshan thought for a while: "Li, in fact, works like Jurassic Park can be written into a series."
"And, you said just now that there are people in Hollywood who value this movie and want to change it into a movie, why don't you try it?"
"Making a movie, oh, why didn't I expect it to be fun." Xiao Li shouted excitedly as if he had gotten a new toy.
Liu Qingshan quickly reminded him: "The premise is that you have to find a good director, such as Spielberg."
Xiao Li smiled: "Well, it's actually him who fell in love with our big dinosaur."
This can only be said to be fate, and Liu Qingshan said again: "If you allow it, you can invest part of it yourself."
"What about you, are your pounds sleeping in the bank?"
Xiao Li immediately asked back.
Liu Qingshan glanced at him. It seemed that this guy had already figured it out. If he invested a few million, it would be impossible. After all, this movie was a big hit in the end, with a box office of over one billion, so he would not lose money.
Seeing that there were two reporters around, Liu Qingshan didn't want to talk about this topic in front of outsiders, so he smiled:
"Li, that starry sky, are you ready to exchange items?"
Xiao Li smiled: "Of course I came prepared. Liu, this famous oil painting connoisseur Mr. John, wants to appreciate your starry sky."
After hearing what he said, Liu Qingshan understood. Of course, he had to identify the authenticity first. If it was Vincent Van Gogh's work, people would be willing to exchange it.
Liu Qingshan is also looking forward to it: it seems that the things the other party brought are definitely not ordinary things.
Since that's the case, let's look at the painting first.
Liu Qingshan explained to the two reporters that the two beautiful reporters also expressed that they wanted to witness it.
So I drove two cars to the commune. In front of the dinosaur fossil museum, it was still empty, and the old man who was guarding the door was napping against the gate.
Seeing this, Xiao Li couldn't help but shake his head: "Liu, if there is such a museum in my country, there will definitely be many parents who will come to visit with their children."
Liu Qingshan also smiled and nodded: "It's soon, our country will be able to achieve this soon."
After entering the museum, I went straight to Liu Qingshan’s private treasure room.
"Oh, Liu, it seems that your exhibits are more."
Xiao Li glanced at the eyes and saw the changes. He knew that collecting antiques and other things was very expensive.
Of course, Liu Qingshan's collections are increasing, and he nodded with relief.
"Oh, the cake seller!"
A strange cry suddenly sounded. It was the connoisseur Mr. John, who had never had any sense of existence. He was dancing in front of the oil painting in the starry sky.
A magnifying glass fell on the ground.
"It's definitely not wrong. It's definitely Vincent's work, and it's the best starry sky. Just now, I almost felt like I turned into a star inside!"
John seemed extremely excited, and Liu Qingshan hurried to him, worried that this guy would go crazy and not destroy the treasure in the treasure room.
After hearing John's words, Xiao Li was finally relieved.
Although he was already very sure that this was Van Gogh's work, he was an outsider after all, so he could only be truly at ease when he found someone insider.
"This is a work that can touch the soul. It's great, it's simply amazing!"
