Chapter 407 Total defeat and pursuit of victory (please order)


Zhang Nianhua felt that he was too uncomfortable. At this time, they were actually negotiating in front of everyone on the crew. His emotions were being dragged back and forth by Li Shuo. He wanted to fight to the death, but was also afraid of jumping into Li Shuo's trap. This This is often a passive situation in which one is forced to the bottom line of the negotiation and cannot move.

He closed his eyes and took a deep breath, knowing that Li Shuo had probably made all preparations for this negotiation. Even Tang Yunpeng had just mentioned that the Art Association was part of it, that is to say, The plan of Century Huayue and Spreadtrum Culture to put pressure on Shuoguo Culture has completely gone bankrupt.

When he thought of this, Zhang Nianhua knew that he had lost. He sighed dejectedly and said: "Half of the 20 million investment can be deducted, but the liquidated damages also need to be deducted by half."

We must admit defeat. It was harvested, so Zhang Nianhua cut off a large piece of meat. The only thing that makes Zhang Nianhua happy is that because of his good relationship with Spreadtrum, the liquidated damages in the contract are only 3 million, otherwise he would have been ripped off.

Li Shuo nodded, and only then looked at Tang Yunpeng: "What does Mr. Tang think?"

Tang Yunpeng looked at him with a scrutinizing gaze, and had already made up his mind that this negotiation would not favor any party. In addition, he must collect information about Li Shuo and Shuoguo Culture when he went back!

"Okay"

Li Shuo smiled and pointed to the table behind him: "Then, everyone, sit down first. I believe you two have brought lawyers, and let's work out a plan together. ..."

The crew, the people behind Zhang Nianhua, and the people around Tang Yunpeng, all three parties breathed a sigh of relief at this moment.

It was only then that everyone realized that Li Shuo's stunning appearance had single-handedly overwhelmed everyone else!

Li Shuo, Tang Yunpeng, and Zhang Nianhua were sitting at the table at the filming location. They all had a prepared plan in front of them. As long as the three bosses thought it was OK and signed it, Century Huayue could successfully exit this project. invest.

Everyone felt that Li Shuo took advantage of this matter, Century Huayue was bitten hard, and the matter should end here.

Unexpectedly, the first thing Li Shuo said when he picked up the agreement was: "The soundtrack of Century Huayue is actually worth 10 million? What kind of work did you do?"

Speaking of Zhang Nianhua's confidence in his company's main business immediately returned. He took a sip of tea and said lightly: "Xiao Wang, come and explain it to Mr. Li..."

Someone next to him immediately picked up the document and said: "Soundtracking is Century Huayue's main business. In the early stages of the project, we produced a total of 10 pieces of music for "The Temptation of Returning Home". Among them, the most critical opening song "Unforgiven" is The second edited work by Mr. Tan Jun, a famous composer from Lenghai, originally came from the theme song of the original South Korean TV series "The Temptation of Wife"..."

At this time, Li Shuo interrupted: "You don't have to say this, just ask, how much is this song worth?"

With a sneer on his face, Xiao Wang said decisively: "It is worth at least 3 million!"< br>
Li Shuo nodded and asked again: "Do you want to register the version? "Have you got the right?"

Xiao Wang lowered his head, but still said stubbornly: "Of course"

With a "pop", Li Shuo stood up and said angrily: "You are talking nonsense!" Why did you register the copyright for the song?”

"Ah?"

Everyone around was shocked: What is this? This Mr. Li who founded the fruitful system can actually write songs?

Even Zhang Nianhua, who was an enemy, couldn't help but widen his eyes, looked at Li Shuo, and said weakly: "Um, Mr. Li, are you mistaken? This is the theme of the TV series The song was not written by you?”

“It’s not wrong”< br>
Li Shuo sneered and said: "I wrote this song with Tan Jun. If you don't believe it, please contact Tan Jun... Well, it doesn't matter even if Tan Jun doesn't admit it, because after writing this song, I have asked Shuoguo Culture to register the copyright of this song!”

"This..."

Zhang Nianhua was stunned on the spot.

Xiao Wang was sweating profusely. He immediately picked up his mobile phone and called Tan Jun, but soon heard the busy prompt. He then raised his head and saw a beautiful woman coming from behind Li Shuo. Walk up and put the phone in front of him.

Li Shuo turned on the speakerphone and said directly: "Tan Jun, I am Li Shuo. I am surrounded by the bosses of Century Huayue, Spreadtrum Culture and company executives. Now I want to ask you something."

Tan Jun had discussed this matter with Li Shuo before, so he immediately reacted and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Li, you said..."

In fact, there was no need for Li Shuo to ask. When Tan Jun's voice came, even Xiao Wang knew that he had fallen into a trap: It was obvious that Tan Jun had been bribed by Li Shuo, and the two teamed up to give Century Hua money. Yue has a problematic theme song!

It seems like a small problem, but you must know that Century Huayue is a cultural company! Once an original track is known as "plagiarism", it will directly cut off the foundation of the company!

With a "bang", Zhang Nianhua also stood up with a slap on the table. He was shaking with anger, pointed his finger at Li Shuo, and shouted angrily: "You...how dare you...how dare you You, Li Shuo, have gone too far to collude with Tan Jun and slander my company."

Actually, this is just a coincidence because of the rebirth. However, Li Shuo will not show any mercy to his enemies. Just sneer He said: "Whether it is slander or not, you will know after checking it!"

The person who just handed over the document for him was Wei Shuting. When Li Shuo received the news that Zhang Nianhua and Tang Yunpeng came to the crew, he decisively activated the secretary In addition, Wei Shuting also brought a team of lawyers, not lawyers from Shuoguo Culture, but the core of Shuoguo Department, the newly established legal department of Shuoguo Assets, which was a newly established department based on He Yun Guanxi.

Following Li Shuo's words, people from the legal department quickly placed a series of evidence on the table: the copyright registration document for "Unforgiven", the authorization document for the adaptation of the Korean version of the original song, etc.

It is worth mentioning that in the past 10 years, domestic adaptations of foreign songs are usually "used as they come", so even Century Huayue does not have the authorization of the original Korean songs. This is what Li Shuo went through. After Tan Jun reminded him, he used the channels of SN organization to spend some money to buy out the authorization for the adaptation of Chinese songs!

In other words, both Li Shuo's version of "Unforgiven" and Century Huayue's version of "Unforgiven" violate this authorization. Of course, the former is legal.

Seeing these documents, Zhang Nianhua was even more sure that he had fallen into Li Shuo's trap. He just didn't expect that Li Shuo, despite his young age, would be so sophisticated in doing this kind of thing, and he would be so sophisticated in every aspect. arrive!

At this time, he naturally realized that Century Huayue had finally fallen into Li Shuo's trap. With this withdrawal of investment from the crew, it seemed that he would suffer greater losses!

However, Zhang Nianhua also breathed a sigh of relief, and in his heart he firmly decided to divest his capital: The company has not yet had much competition with Li Shuo, but Li Shuo has already used various means to set up traps. It is conceivable that "The Temptation of Returning Home" The project is definitely the work of Li Shuo with evil intentions, and there may be a bigger hole in it!

So, Century Huayue is right to divest from this project. Thinking of this, Zhang Nianhua looked at Tang Yunpeng. At this point, he could only rely on personal relationships and ask for help from friends.

Tang Yunpeng did not act immediately after receiving the signal. He was thinking about the relationship between Li Shuo and the Art Association. Even though the Art Association is just a loose social organization, it is backed by the government. , and secondly, it has an impact on all aspects of the industry. Even Spreadtrum Culture is not willing to offend the Arts Association easily.

However, the newly born Shuoguo Culture can actually command the Arts Association, which is a great event in itself, and even means that the pattern of Lenghai Culture and Entertainment Industry is about to be reshuffled, which will also have a huge impact on Spreadtrum Culture.

Therefore, even if Tang Yunpeng didn't want to, he had to stand up and protect Century Huayue: if the future development of Shuoguo Culture threatened Spreadtrum, Spreadtrum would also need small companies like Century Huayue to support itself.

But Tang Yunpeng's first words were to look at Zhang Nianhua and say:

"Mr. Zhang, calm down. I think this is just a misunderstanding. Maybe some people did it to save trouble." The accident happened..."

Zhang Nianhua is bitter With a shy smile, he understood that Tang Yunpeng was telling him that he needed more cuts. He thought about it and finally sighed:

"Let's do this. The amount of liquidated damages and withdrawal amount will remain unchanged. Century Huayue will also This song is dedicated to Mr. Li!”

Li Shuo sneered: ""Unforgiven" was originally my original song!"

"No, this is a collaboration between us and Teacher Tan Jun. There may be some misunderstanding..."

“I don’t care if there is any misunderstanding, the legal documents are here, Zhang Do you still want to take a look? "

......

In fact, both sides know that the big framework has been fixed, and what follows is nothing more than the call for interests and compromise, so even if the two sides argue fiercely , but eventually an agreement was reached quickly:

Century Huayue completely withdrew its investment from "The Temptation of Returning Home", and it finally received 10 million yuan in compensation. This figure included: return of investment, liquidated damages, and the crew paid 2 million yuan in buyout fees for the soundtrack copyright of the TV series.

In addition, under Li Shuo's strong recommendation, SN Agency paid 20 million to join the crew and became a new investor with a 20% share! Of the 20 million, 12 million will go directly into the public accounts of the crew, and the remaining 8 million will be the return of Century Huayue's investment.

It sounds complicated, but in fact, Century Huayue quit and the SN organization entered with the support of Li Shuo.

During this process, Spreadtrum and Shuoguo were not affected in any way on the surface, but the interests of the two companies in the crew have undergone earth-shaking changes, and even the creator of the crew, Spreadtrum Culture, has lost its The dominant position of the crew...

After the contract was negotiated, Zhang Nianhua took the people away without grace, but Tang Yunpeng stayed. He invited Li Shuo to sit in a tea room in the resort villa, and the two of them sat down. Came down and chatted for a long time.

Tang Yunpeng mainly praised Li Shuo for being "a formidable young man" and said in a joking tone that after the success of Fruit Culture, the future crew would be left to Li Shuo.

Li Shuo didn’t even dare to say anything. He expressed his attitude directly and said: "...Shuoguo Culture invested in "The Temptation of Returning Home" because it really valued its value, so I will naturally spare no effort to let the crew It is not only the benefit of Spreadtrum Culture to continue operating smoothly and produce works, but also the benefit of fruitful results..."

Finally, Li Shuo stood up and took the initiative to extend his hands to Tang Yunpeng: "Mr. Tang, I wish us a happy cooperation and a great sale of the project!"

Tang Yunpeng naturally smiled and shook hands with Li Shuo. , saying "pleased cooperation" on the lips, but deep down in his heart naturally he did not let go of his fear of the strong rise of the fruitful culture.

But one thing is certain, since they are all investors, they naturally hope that the project will succeed.

Tang Yunpeng left after meeting with Li Shuo, but Chen Xiaoqi stayed. Seeing that she kept a smile on her face, Li Shuo couldn't help joking: "Ms. Chen, you performed very well in this negotiation. You handed over almost all the information in time." If I give it to your boss, can I go further this time?"

Chen Xiaoqi smiled. Said: "We need to wait until the project is completed..."

Hearing this, Li Shuo understood that among the entire crew, what he admired most was actually Chen Xiaoqi's talent. This woman turned out to be in Fucheng Country After leaving, he immediately forcibly kneaded the scattered pieces of the crew together. This is an incredible production ability.

But since Chen Xiaoqi has been favored by Tang Yunpeng, Li Shuo has not issued a poaching invitation rashly. After all, she still represents Spreadtrum Culture. If Li Shuo really poached her, wouldn't it mean that he wants to dominate? Crew? This is to break up with Spreadtrum Culture!

Li Shuo is not an unreasonable person. He just said "please cooperate" with Tang Yunpeng, and he really doesn't want to make any more mistakes.

"Mr. Li!"

"Hello, Producer Li!"

When Li Shuo came back to the shooting location, almost everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at it with awe and curiosity. He said hello one after another.

Even Choo Ja Sin and the actor, who were filming, stopped. The actor even came to Li Shuo immediately, bowed his head slightly, and explained: "Mr. Li, I hope that the intimate scenes in the future will require Shot out of position, what do you think? ”< br>
Of course there is no problem. Li Shuo is just a mortal, and naturally he does not want his woman to have close contact with men because of filming. He patted the male protagonist on the shoulder, smiled naturally and said: "You are very good, my name is What name? ”

"Oh, my name is..."

The male protagonist of "The Temptation of Returning Home" is already a second- or third-tier male star at this time, and he also has a well-known domestic agency as his backer, so Li Shuo and He chatted for a while, gave him his business card, and nothing more happened.

"Everyone, continue filming, don't disturb the order of the crew because of me! Please remember, here, I am the producer, not some fruitful boss."

Then Li Shuo rushed to everyone He waved his hand and said something casually. Others immediately responded, and the crew seemed to be entering the formal stage again. Normal operating status...

Of course, this is just a superficial phenomenon. At least because of Li Shuo's arrival, the drama stopped temporarily. Wu Bing walked to Li Shuo and said softly: "Mr. Li, I just received the call. Mr. Fu called. He is very angry that Zhang Nianhua left him to negotiate, and he is eager to meet you..."

Fuchengguo has been in charge of the "Temptation of Returning Home" project. Even though he was forced out by Li Shuo, the mistake he made was actually not big. He should have been the one to take part in this negotiation, but in the end it was Zhang Nianhua who came over. This proves that the two Conflicts have arisen. In addition, Zhang Nianhua was forced to give up his interests belonging to Century Huayue because of his son. This also seriously infringed on the interests of the major shareholder Fuchengguo!

Coupled with Wu Bing's communication channel, it is reasonable for Fuchengguo to take the initiative to contact Li Shuo. (End of this chapter)
