Chapter 117 In the Name of the People

"800 million! It must be received within two days after the board of directors approves it!"

"700 million! It won't take two days, it will arrive in half an hour."

"make a deal."

Back in the office, both parties no longer needed any more testing.

As Accountant Jia said the word "deal", Mo Ran relaxed and stretched out his right hand.

“A pleasure to work with.”

“Happy to work with!”

Accountant Jia also exhaled slightly, looking at Mo Ran with a completely different look than before.

"Mr. Mo, I underestimated you before."

Mo Ran showed a smile but said nothing.

Seeing this, Accountant Jia didn't say anything more and changed the subject.

"You two, wait a moment, I'm going to prepare a contract."

"That's not necessary."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lawyer Wu took a step forward and took out a drafted contract from his bag.

"Mr. Jia, we have prepared the relevant contracts."

"You can take a look. If there is no problem, we can sign it first, and then..."

"It will come into effect after the board of directors of your company, LeTV Pictures, approves it."

Accountant Jia was slightly startled, looked at Lawyer Wu, and finally fell on Mo Ran.

"I originally thought I was just looking down on you..."

"Now it seems... I have completely underestimated you!"

"You are so sure that I will agree after you are so well prepared?"

"It's blinding."

Mo Ran smiled, then took the contract from Lawyer Wu and handed it to Accountant Jia.

"Mr. Jia, without further ado, hurry up and sign it."

An agreement was reached with Accountant Jia, but Mo Ran and Lawyer Wu did not return to Chengdu, but stayed in the capital to wait for the follow-up results.

At the same time, after coming out of LeTV Building, Mo Ran immediately arranged for the financial director Lao Qian to prepare 700 million in cash for ready use.

On the third day, Mo Ran finally got a call from Accountant Jia.

"The board of directors has approved this deal, you come to the company now."

"good."

Mo Ran was relieved and found out that Accountant Jia was right.

Soon, the two came to the President's Office of LeTV headquarters again. A freshly stamped and legally binding copyright transfer agreement was already placed on the coffee table.

Lawyer Wu's main business on weekdays is to help major listed companies handle various matters. This time Mo Ran brought him here, firstly to avoid legal risks, and secondly to avoid being manipulated.

After carefully checking that there were no problems with the transfer agreement, Lawyer Wu nodded slightly to Mo Ran.

Mo Ran stopped talking, and immediately took out his mobile phone to call Finance Lao Qian himself and asked him to transfer the prepared funds into the designated account.

After hanging up the phone, Accountant Jia was smiling and couldn't help but praise:

"Mr. Mo, you are so refreshing."

Mo Ran laughed and gave a thumbs up as well.

“It’s also a pleasure doing business with you!”

As he spoke, he paused and continued:

"Now that we have paid the money, we have also completed some subsequent transfer procedures today, right?"

"That's natural!"

Accountant Jia nodded.

"However, although we have reached a copyright transfer agreement, you cannot announce any relevant information to the outside world yet."

"You also know that we, LeTV, are discussing the equity transfer with Sunac Real Estate, and there should be results within the next two days..."

"I don't want this matter to get out of hand, which will be of no benefit to everyone."

Of course Mo Ran also knew the key point.

This time he took the risk to find Accountant Jia. To put it nicely, it was called taking chestnuts from the fire and each taking what he needed.

To put it bluntly, it is called colluding with Accountant Jia to sell LeTV's core assets at a low price, causing a loss of assets, and finally cheating Sunac.

At least for now, he and Accountant Jia are still in the same boat.

"I know about this, don't worry."

"All I want is the film and TV series rights. As for what you want to do and how you want to do it, I don't care, and I don't want to get involved."

Accountant Jia smiled even more and took the initiative to extend his right hand.

"It's such a pleasure to work with someone like you."

The two of them held their hands together, and at that moment, Accountant Jia's cell phone rang.

Mo Ran estimated that the money had arrived. After a while, a middle-aged man knocked on the office door and walked in.

Accountant Jia introduced:

"This is Xia Feng, the director of the copyright department of LeTV Pictures. He has been with me for many years."

"Next, he will take the two of them to complete the relevant follow-up procedures."

Mo Ran glanced at the tall and thin Xia Feng. This was undoubtedly Accountant Jia's true confidant.

"Okay, then I'll trouble Mr. Xia."

"You're welcome, Mr. Mo please."

With Xia Feng's guidance, the two quickly went from the President's Office to the "Film and Television Copyright Department" on the eleventh floor.

In fact, the transfer of copyrights between movies and TV series is not complicated.

After each movie or TV series is shot, the corresponding information will be submitted to the Yanguo Copyright Office for copyright registration.

After successful registration, you will get a corresponding film and television copyright number, which is similar to an ID card. Each subsequent copyright transfer will only transfer the owner of the "copyright number".

For example, some of the non-popular movies and TV series previously acquired by LeTV were mostly purchased from entertainment companies and film and television companies in packages of dozens of movies and hundreds of episodes at a time, making transfers very convenient.

While thinking, the three of them came to Xia Feng's office.

Lawyer Wu began to complete the remaining procedures, and at the same time, he screened out the copyrights of the TV series and movies that were the focus of this transaction, such as "The Legend of Zhen Huan", "Soldier Assault", "Di Renjie" and other copyright materials, and took them all in his hands first.

As for those that are not important, they will wait for someone to be contacted later to handle the copyright transfer business.

It's no wonder that Mo Ran is cautious. It's better to be more cautious at critical times.

While Lawyer Wu was carefully screening the key copyrights, Mo Ran looked around the office.

It has to be said that as the head of the copyright department of "LeTV Pictures", Xia Feng has great influence in the entertainment industry. There are many photos of big-name stars in the entertainment industry displayed in his huge office.

There are quite a few of them, even people like him who don't care much about the entertainment industry know them.

He stood up with interest and prepared to take a look, but when he glanced around, he suddenly saw a stack of colorful information next to the photo frame placed on the desk, which seemed familiar.

"This is……?"

Xia Feng was stunned for a moment, then smiled and picked up the information and handed it to Mo Ran.

"This is a TV series that will be launched soon this year - 'In the Name of the People'."

"In the name of the people?"

Mo Ran's eyes narrowed, and he quickly took the information and took a look. The stills in his hand were indeed exactly the same as in his memory!

In an instant, his mind was racing, and he instantly realized that this was an extremely rare opportunity to establish his "Nietzsche TV platform" in one shot!

He knew very well what kind of response this drama would have in the whole society and on the entire Internet after it was aired.

Not to mention that the show was a crowd-pleaser, but during its premiere, each episode aroused great discussion and enthusiasm.

He once read a statistic that after the broadcast of "In the Name of the People", the single-day ratings exceeded 8%, the viewership share was as high as 21%, and the online broadcast exceeded 21 billion, creating the highest record in the history of domestic TV dramas in Yanguo in the past 10 years!

If only it were such a drama!

It can be premiered simultaneously on the "Nietzsche TV Platform" and customers of "Nietzsche TV" can watch it for free. What kind of chemical reaction will it cause? !

Thinking of this, Mo Ran's heart surged. He suppressed his excitement and looked at Xia Feng calmly.

"Is this drama also the copyright of your LeTV?"

"That's not true."

Xia Feng smiled and shook his head.

"The copyright of this drama was sold for 220 million. It was bought by Mango Channel. We did not buy it."

"However... we bought the online broadcast rights and the TV broadcast rights, which can be broadcast on TV and the Internet."

Mo Ran's eyes narrowed and he understood immediately.

In fact, the copyrights of movies and TV series he purchased from "LeTV Pictures" this time are mainly some classic movies and TV series that have been broadcast.

For example, The Legend of Zhen Huan, Soldier Assault, etc.

To put it bluntly,

It means spending 700 million to purchase movie and TV series resources to expand the resource library of the "Nietzsche TV Platform" so that customers can choose more content to watch.

The new drama "In the Name of the People" is obviously not included in the scope of the agreement, and LeTV does not have the copyright, but only the broadcasting rights.

He did not go around in circles, looked at Xia Feng and said:

"In addition to LeTV, are there any other platforms that have purchased the broadcast rights?"

"Mango Channel has purchased the copyright of this drama, and naturally has the exclusive TV broadcast rights and online broadcast rights of this drama..."

"As for other online platforms, several websites such as Tencent Video and Youku have also purchased online broadcast rights."

Mango station.

Mo Ran nodded, remembering that it was indeed the first broadcast exclusively on Mango Channel.

After a moment, he continued to ask:

"So how much did you spend to buy the broadcast rights?"

The words fell,

This time Xia Feng did not answer directly, but asked in surprise:

"Mr. Mo, do you like this drama very much?"

Mo Ran was slightly startled and felt that he seemed to be a little too anxious.

He smiled and softened his tone.

"Fortunately, I just thought it was rare to see this subject, so I asked."

"Indeed, this subject matter is indeed very rare."

"But it's just a bit sensitive. The scale is too big. Now no one knows the specific response after the broadcast. I don't know what it will be like."

Xia Feng echoed, and then continued:

"As for the price, we bought the online broadcast rights and the "LeTV TV platform" broadcast rights, and the total cost was only 15 million."

1500 dollars.

Mo Ran did not continue to speak and gently put the information in his hand back on the desk.

After about a minute of silence, he suddenly smiled and said:

"Fifteen million is not expensive, how about you give us the broadcast rights of this drama as well."

deliver?

Xia Feng was stunned for a moment, then showed an embarrassed look.

"Mr. Mo, I can't make the decision. You have to call and talk to Mr. Jia."

Mo Ran also knew this and immediately called Accountant Jia.

Upon hearing the reason, Accountant Jia smiled and said:

"Mr. Mo, I can decide the right to broadcast a TV series, but...it's hard for me to explain it if it's free."

"How much do you want?"

"We spent 15 million. Since you are optimistic about it, how about transferring 20 million to you?"

"hehe."

Mo Ran sneered, "Send" was of course just his test.

For a professional businessman like Accountant Jia, saying "send" first is nothing more than lowering expectations and preventing the other party from opening his mouth.

Unexpectedly, Accountant Jia’s stock rose by 30%.

"Forget it, you can keep it."

"No, no, no, you just said you only want the broadcast rights on the 'TV platform', right? How about 10 million?"

Mo Ran: "2 million."

Accountant Jia: "8 million."

Mo Ran: "5 million."

Accountant Jia: "7 million."

Mo Ran: "No more."

Accountant Jia: "Okay, okay, okay, 5 million, let's transfer it to the associated account just designated, and the broadcasting rights of our 'TV platform' will be transferred to you."

"make a deal!"

Mo Ran responded simply and hung up the phone.

Now Accountant Jia is really willing to sell anything. 5 million can buy the right to broadcast the "In the Name of the People" TV platform. This is definitely a good deal.

Although you can watch it on the Internet such as Youku and Tencent Video, what should I say?

Watching TV series still makes you feel better when you watch them on TV, and the most important thing about TV series is that you watch and discuss them with your family to make them more interesting.

Watching it on a computer, the atmosphere is always a bit different.

With Accountant Jia's permission, Xia Feng would naturally not stop anything.

Lawyer Wu immediately took out a new document and took the lead in confirming the broadcast rights of the "In the Name of the People" platform.

The three of them have been busy in the office. Fortunately, there are many people looking for Xia Feng on weekdays, so the appearance of Mo Ran and Lawyer Wu did not attract much attention.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, after working continuously for more than three hours, all the follow-up matters of this equity transfer were finally completed.

"Mr. Xia, thanks for your help, we are ready to leave."

"It's just a little effort, Mr. Mo and Lawyer Wu. I won't send it to you at this sensitive moment."

Mo Ran expressed his understanding, and then he and Lawyer Wu took the documents and left.

The two quickly walked out of the "Film and Television Copyright Department" and walked to the door. Only then did they realize that there was a sign of "LeTV Pictures" hanging opposite the "Film and Television Copyright Department".

Lawyer Wu looked over curiously and was suddenly a little surprised.

"Mr. Mo, look, it seems there are a lot of people in LeTV Pictures?"

"Isn't someone here to cause trouble?"

Mo Ran was still silently thinking about how to use the drama "In the Name of the People", but when he heard Lawyer Wu's reminder, he immediately looked up.

Sure enough, the hall of LeTV Pictures was packed with people and noisy.

But after taking a closer look, I felt that the people in the hall looked familiar. It seemed like I had seen them somewhere.

After a moment, he couldn't help but be curious and whispered:

"Lawyer Wu, let's go see what's going on."

"good."

The two walked over quickly, but as soon as they walked into the door, people standing and sitting in the hall couldn't help but look up at the two.

Mo Ran was stunned for a moment, then he laughed at himself in a low voice:

"I wonder why he looks so familiar. Many people have seen him in Xia Feng's office just now."

Lawyer Wu was a little confused at first, but he reacted when he heard this.

Although everyone in the lobby of "LeTV Pictures" was worried and worried, they were not ordinary people at all, but big stars in the entertainment industry.

Mo Ran sneered secretly in his heart, and probably guessed the reason why these people came.

Many of these entertainment stars invested in "LeTV Pictures" in the early years, and many of them invested hundreds of millions or tens of millions.

At this time, LeTV was negotiating with Sunac Real Estate. It is very likely that these people came to inquire about the specific situation and were concerned about the future of "LeTV Pictures".

Thinking of this, Mo Ran took one look and prepared to leave.

What future does LeTV Pictures have?

LeTV will collapse in less than half a year. Not to mention "LeTV Pictures", even LeTV itself will completely collapse, and all investments will be lost and all money will be lost.

certainly.

If there is still a chance, then at this moment, Sunac Real Estate taking over LeTV is undoubtedly the last chance to escape!

but……

The corner of Mo Ran's mouth raised slightly. He had no interest in reminding anyone. What does the life and death of these stars have to do with him?

"Lawyer Wu, let's go."

After the words fell, Mo Ran turned and left.

But at this moment, suddenly, in the corner of the hall against the wall, a thin old man wearing a cap and looking a little malnourished suddenly stood up.

"This little brother, are you a staff member of LeTV?"

Moran looked up and his eyes tightened.

"Zhang Yimou, Director Zhang?"
