Being A Shrew to My Ex-Husband After Our Divorce Novel - Chapter 319

Chapter 319: 30% of the Copyright

“That’s not right. How did you know that we, Blue-Ray Media Company, had obtained the copyright of ‘The World’?Lan Jian questioned. This was a trade secret. If he remembered correctly, Blue-Ray Media Company had only obtained the copyright at the end of last month. Other than the company’s copyright department manager, no one else knew about this.

After hearing Su Yan’s words, Lan Jian thought it over. Su Yan patiently explained, “We have also been negotiating with the author about the acquisition of ‘The World.’ But even after a few rounds of price increases, the author refused to sell the copyright to us. I haven’t met anyone in this world who doesn’t like money. So it can only be that the author has already sold the copyright long ago and even signed an exclusive agreement or something like that. And in the entire Jiang Du, besides Glory Entertainment, only Blue-Ray Media Company has the ability to buy the copyright before us. Glory Entertainment has been downsizing internally recently. Moreover, its main strategy for this year is online dramas and variety shows, so the most likely company is Blue-Ray Media Company.”

Hearing this, Lan Jian put on a solemn expression. “I knew it. How could the copyright manager sell me out? I admire your meticulous and logical thinking. Since you’ve already deduced it, then I won’t hide it. That’s right, I’ve indeed bought the copyright of ‘The World’, but I won’t transfer the copyright to you.”

Just like what Su Yan had said earlier, no one in this world didn’t want to earn money. In recent yearsm “The World” was one of the few domestic movies that reflected the real life of the Chinese people in the 1960s and 1970s. Moreover, after filming the movie, they would film a television series. Lan Jian had done market research, and Blue-Ray Media Company could make a lot of money through “The World.” How could he bear to give others such a lucrative business?

Hearing that he was unwilling to share a piece of the cake, Su Yan shrugged and said, “Oh, then I’m sorry.”

As she said that, she took out another ball and placed it in front of her. Recently, Tang Yitong wasn’t around, and she had been paying attention to the situation at Dragon Emperor Entertainment. The New Year had already begun, so she had to find what valuable projects were worth investing in. “The World” was an excellent creative writing work that she had been paying attention to, but she didn’t expect Lan Jian to be one step ahead of her. However, she didn’t have to film “The World.” Instead, she wanted to take this opportunity to extort some money from him. If Lan Jian disagreed, so be it.

Seeing that she didn’t care, Lan Jian immediately felt troubled. He knew Su Yan’s personality. If she refused, she wouldn’t yield even if someone knelt before her. Although he felt like he was being taken advantage of, he still endured the pain and said, “How about this? I can give Dragon Emperor Entertainment 30% of the subscription right of the work if you agree.”

Giving away 30% of the copyright was already the best offer he could give, and it was also his bottom line. Although he wanted to win the bet, he had to consider the company’s overall development.

Hearing this, Su Yan stopped hitting the ball and looked at Lan Jian in surprise. She didn’t expect him to agree to give away 30% of the copyright. It was a great offer. However, after thinking about it, she felt relieved. After all, the Blue-Ray Media Company was big, so they didn’t lack that small amount of money.

“Since that’s the case, I won’t stand on ceremony. Let’s have a happy cooperation!” After saying this, Su Yan hit the golf ball hard. Reproducing “The World” was easy money. How could she let go of such a good opportunity?

Hearing that she finally agreed, Lan Jian also had a sigh of relief and said, “I also wish us a wonderful cooperation, Su Yan.”

After that, the two of them even shook hands to conclude the initial verbal agreement. The rest was up to the two secretary of the Legal Department and the secretary of the Copyright Department.

“Alright, since we’ve already reached an agreement, I’ll accompany you,” Looking at the caddy who had returned, Su Yan smiled and said.

Lan Jian nodded and turned around to bring Su Yan back. Although he had won the bet, he couldn’t smile. He had lost so much money in one go to win this bet.

“Su Yan, why do I feel like you’re taking advantage of me?” After taking a few steps, Lan Jian suddenly reacted.

“What? Young Master Lan, do you regret it? Before I go over, it’s still not too late to regret it.” Su Yan said indifferently.
