Hollywood Lover

  The box office of several other movies is also more than 800 million US dollars, which is definitely a veritable money-absorbing monster.

  The great director Cameron, who claimed to be the king of the world at the Oscars, although the film he shot occupies the record for the highest box office. But the ability to attract money alone is also willing to bow down to Harry Potter, a boy wearing small round glasses.

   Seeing Zhang Dongcheng meditating silently, J.K. Rowling also thought about it secretly. She is almost crazy poor now, and a few hundred thousand or one million dollars can smash her into a star.

  Of course, this kind of cognition is also produced when J. K. Rowling himself does not know the value of Harry Potter. After all, she finished writing the first volume of this book in June last year, and it has been a year since then, but no publisher is willing to publish it. Under such a blow, even his strong self-confidence is almost exhausted.

   Finally found the publishing house where Kang Ninghan works, but there has been no publishing news for a long time. Even the 1,500 pounds that Kang Ninghan gave himself as a manuscript fee was advanced in advance because he saw that he was raising his daughter alone.

  Under such circumstances, how could J.K. Rowling not be tempted when she learned that Zhang Dongcheng came to buy the film copyright of Harry Potter? If Zhang Dongcheng was really scared away, then she really would have no place to cry.

  Thinking of her young daughter, J.K. Rowling finally made up her mind, and proposed again: "Mr. Smith, how about I sell you the movie rights for one hundred thousand, one hundred thousand dollars?"

   Zhang Dongcheng raised his head and looked at her when he heard the words, while Rowling was so anxious that he was sweating, and even said: "If one hundred thousand is too high, then let it be eighty-seventy-five thousand dollars!"

  After speaking, Rowling's eyes were full of fear and retreat, as if she had shouted 50,000 dollars, which is simply whimsical!

   But Zhang Dongcheng almost burst out laughing, if someone told him one day, hey buddy, do you want the Harry Potter film copyright? It sold for $50,000!

  I will definitely be laughed out loud..

   "Okay!" Zhang Dongcheng finally nodded and said, "I agree. But it's not $50,000."

   J.K. Rowling was startled, anxious to say something.

  Zhang Dongcheng waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, I mean $50,000 is a bit too little!"

   Now J.K. Rowling can't understand Zhang Dongcheng's thoughts. How could some people think that others don't want enough things?

   "I can promise you that in the end, 10% of the box office will be used as the price for purchasing the Harry Potter copyright! What do you agree?"

   Zhang Dongcheng finished speaking in one breath, as if he had relieved a heavy burden, he is not brain-dead, who would dislike his own money?

  He is very short of money, even very short of money. But he doesn't want money with no conscience. J.K. Rowling has had enough of chasing her dreams now with her kids. How could I be greedy for the money of the orphans and widows?

Gentlemen love fortune, in a proper way! Zhang Dongcheng firmly believes that with the ability of the old TV to predict the future coupled with his own struggle. His future is destined to be endlessly bright, whether it is money or fame, as long as he works hard, he can get everything.

   "Mr. Smith, you... are you telling the truth?" J. K. Rowling stood up in surprise, and couldn't believe her ears.

   "Yes!" Zhang Dongcheng nodded seriously, indicating that he was not joking. Continued: "Ms. Rowling, Harry Potter has not yet had the opportunity to be published. It is obviously not the time to shoot a movie. I hope you can concentrate on continuing to write. I will try my best to help you publish the novel and wait for the time to come. I will officially put this story on the big screen!"

   "I understand! Thank you very much, Mr. Smith, God will bless you!" The excited JK Rowling was almost incoherent!

   She agreed happily, but forgot her current situation. You know, at this moment, J.K. Rowling is almost planning to go to Leith College to teach and become a teacher. Because she has to be busy with her own survival issues.

If Zhang Dongcheng hadn’t appeared, she would have received a fee of US$13,000 from the Scottish Arts Association in February next year because of her previous application to fund her continued creation. The writer offers the highest funding ever.

  Because of this money, J.K. Rowling finally devoted himself to creation until next June, when Harry Potter was officially published.

  JK Rowling, who agreed very decisively, quickly thought of his current situation, and it was impossible to continue writing. There was an embarrassing expression on her face. After all, she just promised others something, and now she is about to go back on it, and everyone will feel ashamed.

   "What's the matter? Ms. Rowling, do you have any questions?" Zhang Dongcheng looked at her puzzled and asked in surprise.

   "This..." J. K. Rowling's face was reddish, hesitating, and explained with embarrassment: "I'm sorry, Mr. Smith, I may not be able to continue to create in the near future."

   "Oh? Why?" Just as she asked, Zhang Dongcheng quickly recalled her current situation.

  The immediate promise said: "Ms. Rowling, I think the things you are worried about will disappear soon, because I will fund your creation throughout the whole process. Until Harry Potter starts to create value!"

   "This...?" JK Rowling was stunned. To her, Zhang Dongcheng's promise was like a pie falling from the sky, and it fell directly into her mouth. Chewing and chewing can be swallowed directly.

  But I have to admit that Zhang Dongcheng's proposal moved her. It has been more than six years since I took the train from Manchester to London in 1990, the train was delayed for four hours, and the inspiration for writing Harry Potter novels sprouted.

  In the past six years, J.K. Rowling's life can be described as poor and poor. Even so, she did not give up writing, which shows her enthusiasm for Harry Potter and her persistent pursuit of dreams.

   "Mr. Smith, thank you so much!" J. K. Rowling burst into tears, almost choking up. Anyone could see that Zhang Dongcheng's gratitude came from the heart.

Zhang Dongcheng quickly waved his hand to signal her not to be so polite, and said, "Ms. Rowling, you are too polite. I really like the story of Harry Potter, and I don't want it to die because of it. Besides, we are working together now." Where's the partner? So be it."

Moaning for a moment, Zhang Dongcheng proposed: "I can rent a house for you in London, and pay you a certain amount of cash every month as a source of living for a period of one year. During this year, you Just focus on creating a Harry Potter story until it becomes profitable."

  At this moment, in the eyes of JK Rowling, Zhang Dongcheng was like an angel radiating holy light, flying from heaven to earth. Came here to help her in distress.

  She nodded and agreed without even thinking.

  In the following years, when Harry Potter became popular all over the world, someone once interviewed J.K. Rowling. When referring to the twists and turns published by Harry Potter, she said something like this.

"Although Harry Potter was created by me, it is Chinese-American director Smith Zhang who really completes the story. If it weren't for him showing up at my most difficult time and lending a helping hand selflessly, I think it would be There would be no Harry Potter now!"

   "It is said that before you published Harry Potter, you sold the film rights for 10% of the box office. Is that true?" the reporter asked.

   "That's right!" J.K. Rowling's face was even more moved when he said this question. She said without concealment: "At the beginning, Smith Zhang only heard the fragments of the Harry Potter story, and began to look for me throughout the UK, and wanted to buy the film copyright. At the beginning, I foolishly proposed that only 50,000 US dollars should be paid. When it came to the buyout fee, Smith refused, and he offered to give me 10% of the box office! He is the most honest person I have ever met!"

J.K. Rowling's words seem to have sealed the coffin for Zhang Dongcheng. Although Zhang Dongcheng was already a world-renowned great director at that time, because of JK Rowling's words, he added a prefix to his name. The most honest man in the world!

  Of course, these are things for later, so I won’t mention them for now.

  Finally bought the film copyright of Harry Potter. Although the payment seemed a bit high, compared with Harry Potter's final harvest, it was obvious that Zhang Dongcheng was going to make a fortune this time!

   That night, they rented the villa where Victoria and others had lived in, as a temporary residence for J.K. Rowling's mother and daughter. And pay her a one-time payment of 50,000 US dollars. So that she can write with peace of mind, and in the next month, she will be given 2,000 US dollars of uninterrupted assistance. In this day and age, two thousand dollars is enough to make J.K. Rowling's mother and daughter live a very prosperous life.

   And in order to make J.K. Rowling more devoted to the creation, Zhang Dongcheng also plans to hire a nanny for her to take care of her daughter Jessica.

   Unfortunately, this request was rejected by JK Rowling herself. In her words, she prefers to take care of her daughter personally. Only in this way will the relationship between mother and daughter be more profound. It's not easy for Zhang Dongcheng to force this, he can't let other mothers ignore their daughters.

  After the J.K. Rowling matter was settled, Zhang Dongcheng became full of fighting spirit. Perhaps because he was in a better mood, he even accelerated the speed of filming a lot.

   It’s almost a dream that you will be woken up with laughter! The seven-part Harry Potter series, the most profitable film series in history, is now in Zhang Dongcheng's pocket!

  What else is there to worry about? Zhang Dongcheng on the set was completely full of enthusiasm, so passionate that he couldn't help himself.
