MTL - Rebirth Starts at 7 Million-Chapter 169 big ip copyright
On the second day of the new year, Luo Fan went to Li Jingyi's house at the invitation of Li Jingyi.
Luo Fan originally valued this meeting, but Li Jingyi told him that this meeting should not be taken too seriously, it was just that her parents wanted to get to know Luo Fan, and it was not a formal meeting.
Even so, Luo Fan still prepared a lot of things to bring to Li Jingyi's house.
There was no **** plot happening in this meeting, and things like hitting mandarin ducks usually only appear in TV dramas and novels.
Normal parents rarely object to their children's free love.
As long as the man's family is not too bad, the parents will choose to agree.
Luo Fan's family conditions were not bad, although not as good as Li Jingyi's family, but it was not bad.
Not to mention Luo Fan owns such a big company.
So overall this meeting was quite harmonious, the only fly in the ointment was probably that Li Jingyi's father would look at him with gloomy eyes from time to time.
After lunch, Luo Fan and Li Jingyi came out of her house together.
"Luo Fan, didn't you plan to build a cloud server when you came back this time? What should you do?" Li Jingyi asked.
"I haven't thought about it yet, but it's always right to buy a piece of land first. I plan to contact someone I met at the school celebration before and ask him to ask if there is a suitable land. Then I plan to buy a supercomputer, not a company. The kind of high-power computing server, but a real supercomputer.
Use this supercomputer as the core of the company's cloud server. "
"How much does it cost?" Li Jingyi asked.
"About 100 million!"
"so much!"
"One supercomputer will cost tens of millions, plus buying land, 100 million to build a building may not be enough.
Fortunately, in January, Toutiao's advertising revenue exceeded 100 million. Although this is due to the approaching Chinese New Year and the fierce competition in various advertising, it should slip a lot later. Right now, this money is just used to build a cloud service center. ' said Rowan.
"Then you plan to..."
"You are as comfortable as you are in a quilt, but you are unpredictable like the wind..."
The sudden ringing of the mobile phone interrupted Li Jingyi's words. She picked up her mobile phone subconsciously, but did not find anyone calling.
Instead, Luo Fan answered the phone: "Hello, what's the matter, brother?"
"Xiaofan, didn't you say that you wanted to buy an IP that can stand up to the scene and support our theater chain in the future? I found a good IP." Cao Shuai said.
"What ip."
"There is a science fiction novel called "Three-Body Problem". The author is from my hometown and from YQ. Now he works as a plumber in the factory. My parents still know him. The book that my dad bought to support him is really good."
After listening to Cao Shuai's words, Luo Fan was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that what Cao Shuai was talking about was actually "Three-Body Problem". Did he say that Da Liu is from Shanxi YQ? Luo Fan never knew that if Da Liu was really from YQ, he would still be a fellow with his mother!
"Brother, can you ask this author out?" Luo Fan asked.
"Yes! I have already talked to him, but he said that the copyright of this book has been sold. It was sold last year for 100,000 yuan."
"Then you mean we are going to find the current copyright owner?" Luo Fan asked.
"right."
"Do you know who bought the three-body copyright?"
"Yes, Liu told me that in 2009, he sold the copyright to a female editor.
According to him, this female editor accidentally turned to the book "The Three-Body Problem". At that time, the second part of "The Dark Forest" of "The Three-Body Problem" had just been published. Our country's science fiction has never been plagued or popular, not to mention that there is no such thing as Da Liu. A famous author, so this book belongs to a niche book, and not many people know about it.
But the editor felt like me that Da Liu's book would be popular, so she asked her husband to negotiate with Da Liu.
We like to talk about things at the wine table, and Da Liu and the others are no exception. After a few glasses of wine, the two parties negotiated an agreement at the wine table to transfer the entire copyright of "Three-Body Problem" to 100,000 yuan. Price sold.
After sobering up the next day, the two sides talked again. Da Liu did not regret it and sold the copyright for 100,000 yuan.
I feel that at that time, Da Liu should have been very difficult, because when he wrote "Three-Body Problem", he had no other means of monetization except for some royalties.
100,000 yuan is not a small number. If the copyright of "Three-Body Problem" can be sold smoothly, he can also improve his family's life. In this way, the two signed a copyright transfer agreement. "
After listening to Cao Shuai's words, Luo Fan was a little speechless. He never thought that the truth of the copyright sale for 100,000 yuan was actually like this.
"Brother, I'll leave this to you. You must buy the copyright back, and you can spend more money."
"Don't worry! I'm not surprised." After speaking, Cao Shuai hung up the phone.
"Why does Luofan Company buy the copyright?" Li Jingyi asked.
"Didn't our company set up its own theater chain?"
"Um."
"If a theater chain wants to operate well, it is not just as simple as having more cinemas and more screens. The most important thing is to have some big IPs suitable for development in hand, so that you can exchange interests with other companies and have a good impact on the development of the theater chain. benefit."
"But can this novel be popular? I heard that science fiction is a much less popular genre than suspense reasoning."
"The text you said is so broken."
Two days later, Cao Shuai called Luo Fan, who spent 12 million to buy the copyright of "Three-Body Problem".
After thinking about it, Luo Fan said: "Brother, go set up a copyright operation company! This company will be responsible for collecting some copyrights we purchased in the future, and I will leave it to you for the time being."
"Okay! I'll do it right now."
Luo Fan nodded and hung up the phone.
On the sixth day of the new year, the New Year's holiday is over, and most people start to go to work.
Luo Fan immediately contacted Zhou Qingyun.
Luo Fan felt that Zhou Qingyun, as the city's leader, must know some real estate resources in the city.
After three busy beeps on the phone, Zhou Qingyun answered the phone: "Hello~"
"Hello, Uncle Zhou, I'm Luo Fan."
"Oh! It's Ronaldinho! Is there something wrong?"
"That's it, Uncle Zhou, our company plans to build a cloud service center in our city, as the core of the company's follow-up cloud service business, so I want to buy a piece of land in the city to build a building, what do you recommend? ?"
It is now 2011, and the concept of cloud service is not as popular as the latter, so Zhou Qingyun does not know what cloud service is, but as a city leader Zhou Qingyun will certainly not show that he does not understand what cloud service is, his tone is calm asked: "Xiao Luo, what is your budget for this building?"
"50 million to 100 million! The overall investment of the whole plan must be more than 100 million."
