Chapter 210: Crit Damage

Book distribution often pays attention to schedule. Before Thanksgiving, Random Bookstore pushed "Twilight: Twilight" to the book market. As a pure business, sales are the biggest measure.

However, when the scale of publicity and promotion is limited, the sales volume of works by non-famous writers when they were first launched is better than nothing.

Unlike the film market’s first week of painting, the book market requires time to accumulate.

Some may not be interested in the market for five or six years, and they may become popular if they encounter any opportunity.

Ronan did not intend to adapt this series immediately. The social environment and timing were not suitable. The main purpose of publishing was just like asking Lindsay Bill to write, and first get the relevant copyright and occupy this pit.

Random House has no doubt about its ability to distribute books. Since Ronan is a film producer and a film company owner, they have no doubt that this movie can be adapted into a movie, so the first edition has been printed with more than 100,000 copies and has been distributed throughout the United States.

Next is the author. The first thing in the signature column is Ronan's name, and Lindsay Bill is behind it.

Ronan gave Lindsay Bill the right to sign, which is also a reward for her outstanding work. Moreover, the copyright contract has been signed long ago. According to the copyright law, even if Lindsay Bill’s signature is signed, it will not affect the ownership of the copyright.

This can actually stimulate Lindsay Bill's work enthusiasm.

Lindsay Bill's full body photo was also placed on the title page. Perhaps in the near future, there might be a beautiful writer.

There is no hurry to see these things now. The real promotion should be put after the movie adaptation is put on the agenda.

By the time Thanksgiving Day approached, "Twilight" was launched for nearly a week and only sold a few hundred copies. Some of them were purchased by employees of Shahai Entertainment because of curiosity.

After all, Lindsay Bill usually works at Shahai Entertainment, and there is also the name of the company boss in the author column, so curiosity is inevitable.

Just like the Harry Potter series back then, it is not easy for a new author to become popular with new books.

The book market is also very deep.

For example, before Ronan planned to do anything, a famous book reviewer contacted him and said that he could write a book review and highly recommend this one.

Of course this is not free. If some film critics use money to do things, the book review market will also be short of such talents.

Ronan politely declined these people, and it was not the time.

Thanksgiving is here, and Ronan is sadly discovering that he is only one person.

So, on Thanksgiving Day, Ronan simply made an appointment with Jessica Felton, who was also alone in Los Angeles, to have dinner together.

Because Shahai Entertainment had something to do temporarily, Ronan rushed to the restaurant he had made an appointment and found the place where Jessica Felton was and quickly said, "Sorry, the company has had some problems."

Jessica Felton stood up and greeted, "It's okay, I just arrived, hurry up and sit down."

Ronan looked at her and sat opposite her. Jessica Felton had a special liking for light-colored clothes as usual. The white ladies' shirt was tightly shattered on her body, and a few buttons seemed to be stretched to the limit and could fly up at any time. Her long brown hair was casually draped behind her head, and the light wheat-colored skin on her face was still as smooth and delicate as when she first met her.

Latin mixed-race skin is better than pure white people, and it is a common situation.

Jessica Felton just put on light makeup, her whole body looked clean and neat, and she was a bit graceful.

Ronan called the waiter, asked Jessica Felton about her opinion, ordered dinner, and after the waiter left, he opened the briefcase, took out a bandaged gift box from it, and pushed it to Jessica Felton.

"What is this?" Jessica Felton did not take it apart: "Gift?"

Ronan said casually, "I'll give you a Thanksgiving gift." He saw Jessica Felton not touching and said, "It's not a valuable thing, a book."

When he heard that it was a book, Jessica Felton became interested and asked, "Can it be opened now?"

"Of course." Ronan said with a smile.

Jessica Felton turned to unpacking ribbons and asked, "Technical books on editing or producers?"

In addition to these, she could not have imagined that Ronan would send other books.

After opening it, it was different from what I thought. Jessica Felton looked carefully at the cover: "Twilight? Ah?"

There is inevitably a little disappointment on my face and between my words.

She then said, "The book you wrote? Why are there two authors?"

Ronan was so thick-skinned that he had already practiced it. He said calmly: "I provided the outline, and then I hired Lindsay Bill to write."

Jessica Felton nodded, and before serving the food, she opened and browsed, and soon lost interest: "It turned out to be love."

"It's love." Ronan said: "When you are tired of work, look at these things, you can use them as adjustments and relax."

Jessica Felton put it away and said, "Okay. Thank you, Ronan." She is a technician, and she still understands the world: "I didn't prepare today, and I will give you a gift when I wait for Christmas."

Ronan was not polite either: "Hope is a surprise."

The two laughed and chatted about work. The waiters brought meals one after another. Jessica Felton had a problem before, and she loved eating.

This time, Ronan observed it specifically. Jessica Felton's hands were very stable and he did not lose anything else.

Perhaps because he noticed Ronan's gaze, Jessica Felton said: "After you reminded me last time, I also found the key to the problem. I have been practicing for a while."

Ronan nodded: "You are a technical talent."

Jessica Felton laughed, ate a little vegetable salad, and asked, "Why did you suddenly think about asking me out?"

Ronan shrugged slightly: "Everyone is going home to reunite. I am alone in Los Angeles, and I happened to think that you are alone." He deliberately changed his literary words: "Two lonely people gather together can comfort each other's lonely hearts."

“I have an editing machine,” Jessica Felton said, “Not alone.”

Ronan felt critically injured, so he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's my fault, I forgot." He didn't want to continue this topic and asked, "Have you been to the mentor recently?"

Jessica Felton nodded: "I went there yesterday afternoon. The instructor said you went there the day before yesterday. Remember to call me together next time. Well... I don't have a car, so it's not convenient to take a taxi in Los Angeles."

"Okay." Ronan said: "I'll call you before going next time."

It was still early for dinner to take the initiative to send Jessica Felton back, who still rented in the small apartment building of the past.

"Why don't you live in another place?" Luo Nan stopped the car and asked.

Jessica Felton said frankly: "I don't have money, I've used all my money to buy equipment and practice technology."

Ronan said: "By the way, I have a project after "The Deadly Behind", and you will continue to be a post-production producer and editor?"

"Yes." Jessica Felton had no intention of refusing: "I'll go to your company to discuss treatment with you another day."

Ronan thought about it for a long time and said, "Jesse, find an agent."

Jessica Felton opened the car door and turned around and said, "Agents are in trouble."

"I'll introduce you to one." Ronan has figured out Jessica Felton, and will cooperate for a long time in the future. Many things must be considered in the long term. He said: "Caa or William Morris's agent, if you meet them, there will be no trouble. They will be responsible for discussing your salary."

Jessica Felton tilted her head and thought for a while, and said, "Since it was you who said, I'll meet them and make an appointment to call me." She got out of the car and leaned on the car door: "The apartment is too messy and hasn't been cleaned up for a long time, so I won't invite you up."

Ronan waved his hand, and didn't talk nonsense. He waited for Jessica Felton to close the door and drove away directly.

This lonely Thanksgiving night not only did not get comfort from another lonely person, but was instead critically hurt.

Jessica Felton had a editing machine as her companion, so Ronan simply went home to watch a movie to study cases.

After the Thanksgiving holiday, the Indian Mountain Foundation's uncle and nephew Lakesh Ross Khan and Nick Ross Khan came to Los Angeles to listen to the work reports of supervisors and third parties on the "Spy Shadows" project, and also inspect the new projects recommended by Ronan to them.

In the hotel, after Ronan met the two, they immediately found supervisors and representatives from third-party PwC, and listened carefully to various matters about the project investment.

The final result was quite satisfactory.

Seeing Nick Ross Khan looking through various reports and information, Rakesh Ross Khan asked: "How is it?"

"The operation is very standardized." Nick Ross Khan is very sure of this: "Shahai Entertainment is fully implemented in this project in accordance with the contract signed by both parties. All financial expenditures and expenses are in compliance with regulations. The Firefighter Fund Insurance Company, as the guaranteed party for the completion of the project, has fully fulfilled its responsibilities."

He took one of those documents and handed it to Rakesh Ross Khan: "PwC's evaluation of the crew is excellent."

Laksh Ross Khan took it and took a look and said, "That is, Shahai Entertainment has done what they promised."

"Yes," Nick Ross Khan said: "This is a very reputable company."

"We can invest our newly absorbed financing on their new projects?" asked Rakesh Ross Khan.

Nick Rosshan thought for a while and said, "Wait first. Shahai Entertainment operates very standardized, but how is the filming effect? ​​We don't know yet. Didn't Ronan Anderson invite us to watch some of the completed shots of "Spy Shadows"? It's not too late to talk about it after we have watched it?"
