I Am a Nobleman in England
Chapter 59: It's Such a Luxurious Inhumanity
In the subsequent conversation, Arthur got some knowledge about copyright and copyright protection from Jerry Fuller. To be honest, he knew that Britain and the United States had very strong copyright protection before, but he didn't expect it to be so strict.
As we all know, the first country in the world to formulate copyright laws is the United Kingdom. The protection of the original author in the copyright of works in the UK can be described in two words, strict and simple.
All works created in the UK, created by British people or living in the UK will be protected, not only commercial use without the consent of the author is infringement, if you are for personal entertainment, you will also constitute infringement if you use it without the author himself, unless you It is for academic research and personal study use, only these two points can not violate the copyright law.
It has to be said that this kind of protection is definitely the strongest support and backing for creators and artists!
After notifying the lawyer James Cronin and the head of the publishing house Tom White, and handing over the matter to them with full authority, after contacting DUTV to discuss the details of the contract, Arthur did not continue to stay in Southampton, but approached At noon, I took the car back to Boleyn Manor.
The film and television copyright of "Boleyn Manor" is about to be taken over, and perhaps it is time to give an answer to those publishers who have taken a fancy to "Fifty Shades of Grey". . . . . .
In the carriage, Arthur leaned comfortably on the back of the seat, thinking about the "God of Making Money Book". He kept pressing down and did not reply to the publishers he contacted through private messages. This was undoubtedly for the purpose of accumulating influence. Maximize the use of the Internet's publicity effect, which will give him a big enough advantage in negotiating with the publishing house, take the initiative, and obtain greater benefits.
So far, the effect is outstanding. And as the plot progresses, and the free updates continue, his interests will also be affected to some extent.
When Arthur was thinking about how to choose a publishing house, Paul, the housekeeper who was driving, suddenly pulled over, took out his mobile phone from his pocket, and answered the call.
"...Okay, I see, I will wait for you all on time, see you in the afternoon, goodbye."
After the butler Paul hung up the phone, he turned his head and reported to Arthur who was looking at him: "Count, the people from the auction house will arrive at two o'clock in the afternoon."
"Yeah." Arthur nodded slightly. The plan couldn't keep up with the rapid changes. He had originally made an appointment to meet the people from David's Auction House in the morning, but the plan was disrupted by the sudden call from dU Li TV. Fortunately, the other party He was not unhappy because of the change of the interview time, and it seemed that the other party was also looking forward to the good things that he, a veteran nobleman, would come up with.
Thinking of this, the corners of Arthur's mouth could not help but slightly curl up, and he was also looking forward to the meeting in the afternoon.
Back at Boleyn Manor, after a short rest, he began to enjoy his lunch. Now everyone in Boleyn Castle knows that his Earl attaches great importance to lunch and never fools around. This is different from England's weak Lunch culture, you know, there is a popular saying in Britain and the United States that 'lunch is for the incompetent', which shows their attitude towards lunch.
However, Arthur has been accustomed to the lunch habit for more than 20 years, how could Arthur change easily? As the owner of the castle, an earl, how could he wrong himself, not only to make the castle pay attention to lunch, but also to strive for richness and deliciousness, This is also an important change brought about by his new earl.
Eat breakfast like an emperor, lunch like a nobleman, and dinner like a pauper.
Looking at it now, this sentence, which is used by many people to praise the eating habits of Westerners, is a sentence made by the Chinese themselves.
Hehe, some people just feel that the moon in a foreign country is rounder, the water is sweeter, and the electricity bill is cheaper. . .
Well, as an Earl of England, it seems that if you complain like this again, you will be a bit out of place, ahem. After lunch, Arthur plunged into the study again.
It's not that he's in a hurry to write a novel,
Instead, he put the things he wanted to auction on the table one by one, looking at the four albums on the table, the 28-square seal stone, the three-legged Xuande incense burner, 108 golden amber beads, and the ivory with melon edges Bracelets, Mengchen bronze teapot with beam handle, white jade plate with carved dragon, and the pair of "heavy utensils" gilt chiseled and gilt one-eared vases made in the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty.
Arthur picked up the dragon-carved white jade tablet, and gently stroked the carved lines with his fingers. While admiring the gentleness of the jade, he also felt admiration for the superb carving workmanship, although Arthur did not have such a superb ability to discern , but from the quality of the jade, one can also guess that the value of this jade token is extraordinary.
To be honest, the reason why he put all the things on display this time, except for some of them that will be put up for auction, is that the three items, the melon-shaped ivory bracelet, the golden emerald beads and the carved dragon white jade plaque, are hoping to take this opportunity to Let experts from the auction house help him identify and date it.
Collection, you can't collect it in a daze, right?
For the people at David Auction House, since they received a call from the butler of Earl Boleyn and learned that the contemporary Earl of the Boleyn family, which has been passed down for hundreds of years, intends to hand over a batch of antiques to their auction house for auction, they are especially limited. Antiques beyond the scope of the Celestial Dynasty are really attached great importance to.
For these old aristocratic families, these auction houses have never doubted their inheritance for hundreds of years. Most of the auctioned antiques that have created sky-high prices come from these aristocratic families.
A manager of the Asian department, two senior Chinese antique appraisal experts, a team of two assistants and two security guards, three cars, one of which was a fully enclosed transport vehicle, arrived at 1:50 p.m. At that time, we drove into the picturesque Boleyn Manor.
After hearing the news, Arthur took his butler Paul to stand on the steps in front of the main entrance of the castle, smiling and welcoming the guests from afar.
After the two parties met, there was naturally some polite greetings. Afterwards, Arthur and the butler Paul led the other party's five people into the historic Boleyn Castle except for the two security guards in the escort vehicle.
Along the way, the five people from David Auction House were attracted by the historical heritage and luxury of Boleyn Castle, whether it was the display cabinets of various exquisite porcelains, the marble sculptures of various periods displayed in the corridors, portraits and so on. The antiques made them deeply shocked, and they deeply felt the heritage of the Boleyn family.
After turning the corner, there is another corridor covered with marble carvings.
Walking through such a long corridor, the mood is inexplicably depressed. Maybe it is because the marble always gives people a cold feeling, or maybe it is because the overwhelming works of art make people dizzy.
18th century French chairs are placed in the hallway for sitting and resting. . .
A famille rose vase suspected to be from the late Qing Dynasty is placed on a mahogany square table, with flowers inserted. . .
A 17th-century tower-shaped embossed vase filled with red tulip flowers, with a unique design. . .
The ancient Isfahan carpets from about the 18th century are just placed on the floor of the study, allowing people to step on them. . .
It's really a waste of money, it's extravagant and inhumane!
The two senior appraisal experts are bleeding in their hearts at this moment. This is still the tip of the iceberg. Maybe there are still many precious cultural relics and antiques scattered in this ancient castle, which have been 'traveled' into daily necessities. It's a 'crime'. . .
However, they can only watch and complain in their hearts. However, at the same time, they are also looking forward to seeing such a nobleman, and they want to take out things for auction!
