Chapter 404: My Territory, My Decision (Fourth Update)
"There is no hurry to issue this profit sharing now, as you said, after the 12th episode of "Happy Comedian" is broadcast, it is not too late to settle, and everything will be settled according to the 3:7 sharing stipulated in the contract. Director Qi pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose, looked at Qin Luo and said, "The second purpose of our coming here today is to talk to you about this contract." ”
Qin Luo's heart moved, as expected, but he pretended to be confused and asked, "Contract? What's wrong with the contract? Wasn't it signed well at the beginning? I paid for it, the TV station contributed, everyone worked together, and the money earned was divided into three or seven, and everything was clearly written." ”
"The rest of the contract is fine, but there is one place where it was a little out of line when it was signed. Director Qi said in a deep voice, "It is the copyright ownership of "Happy Comedian". ”
Qin Luo raised his eyebrows, "What's wrong with this? The copyright of "Happy Comedian" belongs to me, didn't I say it was okay at the beginning. ”
"I know that the previous contract was negotiated between the two sides, but it was only a verbal statement, and it couldn't stand up to scrutiny. Director Zhang took over the conversation and said, "The copyright of any variety show broadcast on TV should belong to the TV station. Just like your own talk show "Tonight's Happy Show", its copyright also belongs to our Pearl TV. The same is true for "Happy Comedian", the copyright should be owned by our Pearl TV. ”
"yes. Director Yang also nodded and agreed, "And in the program "Happy Comedian", our Pearl TV station not only provided the venue, but also provided the staff, and also made a lot of use of the station's resources to advertise "Happy Comedian", and handed over the prime time on Saturday night to "Happy Comedian" for broadcast. All of this has made "Happy Comedian" branded as our Pearl TV station, and its copyright naturally belongs to the station. ”
The two directors are singing red-faced, and they want to fool Qin Luo with their mouths, but unfortunately, is Qin Luo so easy to fool?
"It's not...... What do you mean by this? Do you want to rob me of the copyright of "Happy Comedian", Qin Luo directly clarified the topic.
There are those who sing with red faces, and naturally there are those who sing with black faces.
Director Ge, the old black face, finally spoke at this time, and his tone was very unkind as soon as he spoke, "What is it called robbing your copyright? "Happy Comedian" was produced and broadcast by the TV station, and the copyright originally belonged to Pearl TV, not your personal ownership. You should now take the initiative to return the copyright. ”
Qin Luo glanced at Director Ge with the same eyes as he looked at ZZ, and ignored him when he gave him a "hehe", but looked at Director Qi, "The station wants to grab the copyright of my "Happy Comedian", is that so?"
Director Qi continued to sing red-faced, wiped his lenses and said, "Don't talk about it, the station is like a bandit, and they are robbing your copyright." In fact, when the contract was signed, the station held a meeting to discuss it, thinking that the copyright should belong to the TV station, but at that time, you were busy with the preparatory work of "Happy Comedian", and you were busy all day long, so you didn't find a chance to re-modify the contract. ”
Qin Luo sneered, "Hehe, bandits. ”
"Now, the opinion of the station is that your contract may have to be renegotiated, but don't think about it badly, we are not targeting you, the main thing is to standardize the contract and change the copyright ownership issue, the copyright of "Happy Comedian" belongs to Pearl TV, it's such a simple one. ”
After a pause, Director Qi continued, "The issue of copyright ownership was a mistake in the original station, and now the property is returned to the original owner, which should cause you a certain amount of trouble." Of course, the station will also make special compensation to you for this, and the proportion of profits from "Happy Comedian" can be divided by 10% according to the ratio of 1:9. You have 9% of the total, and this compensation is very powerful. ”
When Qin Luo heard this, he laughed, "Then let me ask, does the 1:9 share include copyright income?"
Director Qi shook his head and said, "Not included." The copyright belongs to our Pearl TV station, and the copyright income naturally has nothing to do with you personally. ”
Qin Luo smiled dumbly, is this treating me as a three-year-old child? I have the copyright in hand, and the exclusive broadcast rights of a video website have been sold for 120 million, so you want to return to me the 20% profit share that originally belonged to me, and you still want to exchange the copyright that still belongs to me?
Dream your big dreams!
Qin Luo immediately refused without hesitation: "Impossible, the copyright of "Happy Comedian" is mine, and no one wants to take it away." ”
Director Ge looked like he was about to get angry when he heard this, but he was glanced at by Director Qi and didn't dare to speak.
Director Qi frowned and looked at Qin Luo, and said with a serious face, "Qin Luo, the reason why the show "Happy Comedian" has achieved such popular results, in addition to your planning and hosting, you must know that the big platform of Pearl TV has also played a huge role, even a decisive role. Without this platform, "Happy Comedian" would not be so popular. If the show is not popular, the copyright will be worthless, like a piece of waste paper. You know what I mean, right?"
"I know, how could I not understand what you mean. Qin Luo smiled, looked at Director Qi and said, "However, what I want to correct you is that "Happy Comedian" is fully funded by me, and the six groups of comedians were also personally invited by me, and the promotional advertisements were also produced by me. It can be said that the show "Happy Comedian", from planning to preparation to production to broadcasting, has imprinted my Qin Luo's shadow inside and out, and there is no second person who can do it except for me Qin Luo. ”
"Although Pearl TV provides venues and personnel, as well as a program broadcast platform, these are not unique to your Pearl TV. I don't cooperate with your Pearl TV, find other TV stations, such as Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV, Mango and even, and even Sujiang Satellite TV, which can provide me with these. ”
"Without the external power you provide, "Happy Comedian" can still be produced and broadcast and popular all over the country. ”
"But if it weren't for me Qin Luo, "Happy Comedian" would be a daydream!"
"Now, do you still want the rights to "Happy Comedian"?"
The four directors looked at each other, choked and speechless.
The meaning of Qin Luo's words is very clear, if you force me to hand over the copyright again, I won't play with your Pearl TV station, and find another TV station to play.
If Qin Luo really puts aside Pearl TV's "solo flight", then I'm afraid Pearl TV will really be cool.
In the end, the four directors came and returned disappointed, and left in disgrace.
Qin Luo, like a socialist warrior who upholds prosperity, democracy, civilization, harmony, freedom, equality, justice, rule of law, patriotism, dedication, integrity, and friendliness, repelled the four demon kings who intended to encroach on his territory, and defended his rights and interests and territory with strength.
I'm in charge of my territory!
