Chapter 513

Secretary Wang was left speechless upon hearing this.

"Third Master, it's almost one in the morning."

"Isn't it a bit excessive to be calling people at this hour?"

"Third Master, it's the middle of the night; I'm afraid Director Chen is already asleep."

"Isn't that perfect? I'm going to tell him the good news."

Secretary Wang: "..."

Meanwhile, on the other side.

Cannes.

At the banquet following the film festival.

Qin Yu was already surrounded by a crowd of big-nosed foreigners.

……………………

PS: First bonus chapter.

Thank you to all the 'Yan Zu' for the urging and the tickets.

Continuing.

Ten tickets for a bonus chapter.

Which brother can support me a bit more? I just checked, and I'm only one ticket away from hitting number one on the monthly charts!!

Kneeling in gratitude!!!

263: Agreement reached, *The Chumen World* to be released globally. Returning home, the airport is swarming with reporters. Damn, surrounded!

While offering congratulations, they were simultaneously probing whether Qin Yu was interested in selling the film.

As far as they knew, *The Chumen World* hadn't sold anything yet.

The film was already a massive hit, and now that it had won the Palme d'Or, it was like adding fuel to the fire.

There was absolutely no worry about selling it.

They offered sky-high prices.

However, Qin Yu rejected them one by one.

Don't forget, he still had a bet with Deng Wendi.

After Qin Yu finished dealing with the crowd, Deng Wendi approached with Daniel.

"Qin, congratulations."

Qin Yu and Deng Wendi clinked glasses, feeling a bit curious.

He asked.

"Madam, did you..."

Deng Wendi naturally knew what Qin Yu wanted to ask, but in truth, she hadn't.

Although Fox had some connections in Cannes, they couldn't interfere with the Palme d'Or.

It should be said that no single faction could fully interfere.

If that were really the case, it would have been exposed long ago.

"Qin, you're overthinking it. If Fox were that powerful, would I have needed to travel thousands of miles from the US to find you?"

Qin Yu thought about it and realized she was right.

"Qin, are you still planning to attend the Venice and Berlin film festivals?"

"I won't go. I've already won the big prize at Cannes; the other two will definitely just be for show."

He wasn't stupid. If he hadn't won the Cannes prize, attending Venice might have yielded results.

But since he had won it.

It was basically impossible.

The film festivals have their own relationships; it's impossible to give all the awards to one film.

They have to give other films a chance.

"The flight is tonight."

"In such a rush?"

"The sooner it's released, the sooner I make money."

Deng Wendi frowned and said.

"Then Qin, how about this: 18% of the global box office share, and Fox and you split the copyright 50/50."

"You don't need to pay a single cent for promotion and distribution. How is that for a condition?"

"Add another 2%. One percent for this, one percent for this~"

Qin Yu held up the two trophies.

Daniel, standing beside them, twitched his mouth. Your negotiation style is truly unique.

I actually can't refute it.

Deng Wendi also laughed.

Is it worth it? It's definitely worth it.

He probably won't make too much from the box office, but don't forget about the offline market.

For films with awards like this, discs sell well globally, with the exception of China.

Plus the copyright; losing money is impossible.

"Alright, I agree."

"Director Qin, why not release it globally?" Deng Wendi calculated silently in her heart.

"How about five days from now?"

Qin Yu thought it wouldn't be a problem. Taking advantage of the heat from Cannes, he should be able to secure a decent box office.

"No problem."

Qin Yu prepared to leave, but Deng Wendi hesitated and spoke again.

"Qin, how about making another deal?"

"Please, go ahead."

Deng Wendi signaled to Daniel beside her, and this middle-aged handsome man spoke up.

"Qin, why not hold the premiere of *The Chumen World* in Hollywood? Fox can handle all the arrangements."

"We can offer another 1% share."

Qin Yu laughed upon hearing this.

"Forget it. Hollywood doesn't lack a Cannes film, but China needs one."

After saying this, Qin Yu turned and left.

Deng Wendi and Daniel sighed. Although they knew the hope was slim.

They still wanted to give it a try.

"Madam, don't worry. Since the premiere isn't possible, I don't think Qin will refuse the celebration banquet."

"That's true. Let's go, we should head back too."

"Yes~"

Although Qin Yu wasn't exactly a saint, and talking about patriotism felt a bit hollow.

But as a Chinese person, he naturally wanted to keep the honor in China.

So even though the conditions offered by Fox were good, he still refused.

Money can never be fully earned.

But if you sit on the wrong side of the fence, the consequences will be much more severe.

He quickly found Excited Reba, Zhao Liying, and the others.

Qin Yu said with a smile.

"Let's go, head back and pack up. *The Chumen World* will have its global premiere in five days."

"No problem~"

Excited Reba and the others were all smiles; they had been waiting for this moment.

Returning to the hotel and packing their things, the group was eager to return home. ===== CHAPTER 514 =====
