He Dingxian deeply agreed with Zou Huaiwen's words: "It's really not worth it now, just buy horse bones as a thousand dollars, and reward Niangyong for a bite of rice!" ”

Zou Huaiwen opened his mouth and sighed: "Boss He, you are so arrogant. ”

"That's generous!"

He Dingxian said with a smile: "You are responsible for the price, remember that it can't exceed 5,000 yuan, and by the way, buy Liang Yusheng's copyright, and the writers who will be serialized in our newspaper in the future, remember to let them sign a priority clause in advance, the copyright must be sold to our newspaper first, if the contract is violated, the copyright will automatically belong to the Oriental Daily." ”

"If you trade privately, selling the copyright is also a breach of contract."

"Unless our company clearly issues a document not to, we will give priority to selling to the company......"

Zou Huaiwen understood in his heart, thoughtfully, and quickly agreed: "Yes, big boss!" ”

"As soon as I go back, I will add clauses in the contract, and in addition, I will make up the copyright contracts of "Dragon and Tiger Fighting Jinghua" and "Book of Swords and Enmity", please rest assured."

He Dingxian bowed slightly: "Okay, every martial arts that will be published in the future, and the more excellent submissions, remember to send them to the mission hall in advance to show me." ”

"I'm going to review it myself."

Zou Huaiwen also nodded: "No problem." ”

Zou Huaiwen has cultivated a certain sense of business in the newspaper industry for several years, coupled with the tempering of the editor-in-chief of the "Oriental Daily", he is no longer an ordinary newspaper editor, and the business talent in his bones has been excavated.

Although, in this era of lack of entertainment, movies are still the pastime of the rich, and the first Chinese TV station has not yet been established.

It's too early to talk about all kinds of copyright adaptations, not to mention animation, comics, etc., and even movies and TV series can't touch the edges.

However, in this era of lack of entertainment, it is possible to cultivate a huge readership, and when movies and TV series enter thousands of Chinese households, the group that reads them back then will give great value to copyright.

Today's newspaper serialization is just like the network in the 2G era, relying on the universality of text to quickly seize the entertainment market.

When the concept of "entertainment" has not yet appeared, firmly grasp the first batch of user groups, whoever can create the first batch of produced works will be the future generation of writers, and whoever can seize the copyright of the first batch of works will be the future cultural and music industry giants.

He Dingxian now has just the right time to grasp the copyright, with the first-mover advantage, the platform advantage, the advantage of the times, not only using the author to increase the sales of newspapers, but also enclosing the author in the fence, even if he does not make movies in the future, he can be sold as a rich man just by selling copyrights.

Of course, in the case of having the copyright of a movie store, a newspaper, and a martial arts company, it is a matter of course to set up a film company in the future and break into the film industry.

However, he plans to go step by step, the first step is to lay the cinema line, and the second step is to make a film company, because in the film industry, the cinema chain is the capital side, it is a tiger, if it can't catch the theater chain in Kowloon and the New Territories, it will not be able to compete with the "Shaw Brothers" in the film industry.

Because "Shaw Brothers" is a film company with dual development of film and cinema chains, and is destined to be cut by asset-heavy cinemas.

In fact, the later generations of "Golden Harvest", "Shaw Brothers", and even all top film companies will either start, acquire, or invest in cooperation, in short, they will march to the theater chain.

A film company without its own cinema will never be able to compete with a film company with a cinema chain, so opening a cinema is more important than starting a film company, and it is better to suck other people's blood than to be sucked by others.

Of course, opening a cinema chain requires a lot of investment, and it currently costs millions of Hong Kong dollars to build Kowloon and the New Territories.

He Dingxian has to spend at least a year to raise money, and another two years or so to build theaters one after another.

There is a big gap between the official cinema line and the same dollar store, and there must be seats, curtains, private rooms, etc...... It can't be the same as a humble one-dollar movie store.

It just so happens that in a few years, the income of Hong Kong Island citizens will increase, and it will slowly start to enter the cinema, and it is in the 50s that Hong Kong Island Pictures started in the 50s, started in the 60s, and did not become popular all over the world until the 70s and 80s, and finally ended in the 90s.

During this period, various types of movies, cultural movements, and celebrities emerged to mention.

Before leaving, He Dingxian said again: "By the way, if other newspapers have hot sales, they will go to the author to talk about it, and the cheap ones will be sold for a few hundred yuan, and the expensive ones cannot exceed 5,000 yuan." ”

"Remember to be fully copyrighted."

Zou Huaiwen was a little confused, took a sip of tea, and asked, "What is full copyright?" ”

"That is, all the copyright rights derived from the work belong to us, pay the money with one hand, deliver the goods with the other, and in the future, except for the right of authorship, the other interests of the work have nothing to do with the author."

Although the concept of copyright was born among booksellers since the emergence of the Ming and Qing dynasties, it has long been written into the law in modern times.

At present, both Chinese and Western laws have provisions for the protection of copyright in literary works, but they are mainly concentrated in printed materials, i.e. magazines or newspapers.

Nowadays, Hong Kong Island literati can only earn two sums of money when writing a book, one is the manuscript fee for the serialization period of the newspaper, and the other is the copyright fee when the book is published.

Among them, most of the published books are based on sales, which is actually a kind of copyright lease, and the commercial act of buying copyright this time refers to "copyright buyout".

He didn't explain to Zou Huaiwen very accurately in oral language, but Zou Huaiwen understood very clearly, and a one-time payment had nothing to do with it was a buyout.

At this time, Zou Huaiwen saw that the big boss focused on the concept of "full copyright", and his head was chaotic: "Big boss, we will give you a sum of money, which itself is to buy all copyrights!" ”

"Can the copyright be dismantled and sold?"

He Dingxian was stunned when he heard this, and then burst out laughing: "It makes sense!" ”

"Originally, I was going to buy all the copyrights."

He suddenly understood why Zou Huaiwen could become a movie giant in the future! Zou Huaiwen wondered in his heart: "Can copyright really be disassembled and sold?" I'll have to go back and study it another day. ”

In fact, it's no wonder that Zou Huaiwen is puzzled, in the era when copyright has not undergone development, the well-known buyout behavior is to clear all copyrights!

Whether it is Liang Yusheng or Liang Yuyu, Jin Yong or Jin Yong, in short, once the contract is signed, it is a well-known full copyright buyout.

If you don't sell, you don't sell, and you have confidence! Talented! There are arrogant bones!

It's sold!

Don't chirp!

It seems that the commercial operation of subdividing the copyright of literary works, selling them one by one, and cutting them one by one, will have to rely on Boss He to create a precedent in the future.

Of course, Boss He is by no means a villain who oppresses employees to death, firstly, the writer has the right to choose independently, and does not force him to buy and sell, and secondly, it is not a small income at present, it is nothing more than a matter of choosing to take quick money or gambling on fate.

Although, in fact, it is foreseeable that the vast majority of people will choose fast money, but fast money can eat enough, solve urgent needs, raise children, and even start a business to create a rich man!

Who loses and who earns?

"When I was in the mainland before, I pitied those online writers, tsk, now I'm just as pitiful." After He Dingxian left the tea restaurant, he rushed back to Kowloon in Chengdu, blowing the sea breeze on the chair, and his expression was happy: "Is it well written?" Write about cervical spondylosis and spotted? It's not an honest job for the capitalists, whether you can sell it or not, how much you sell, you say! ”

"I can only rely on the pretty readers to vote every day and give a reward to make ends meet, poor worm! Fortunately, Lao Tzu is a capitalist! ”

He Dingxian grinned: "Bring some mainland characteristics in advance to play with the compatriots on Hong Kong Island, and see what gold, what Yong, and whether they will be able to jump in the future!" ”

"Huh? I just forgot to add another clause after the copyright priority clause, and the copyright transaction is half of it! I will call Zou ...... Never mind! ”

"Newspapers are also facing peer competition, and if the terms are too harsh, only the poor Internet worms in the previous life can stand it."

"It's better to be kind to the martial arts masters and leave them the last copper plate of the era."

The next morning, Zou Huaiwen found Liang Yusheng and Jin Yong to buy the full copyright of "Dragon and Tiger Fighting Jinghua" and "Book of Swords and Enmity" for only 3,000 yuan.

Jin Yong even managed to get a huge sum of 3,000 Hong Kong dollars without even seeing a word in the newspaper, and the young Zha Niangyong still didn't understand: all the gifts given by fate had been secretly marked with prices.

"Brother Yong, didn't you say that you would never write martial arts?" Liang Yusheng finished making up the new contract, walked out of the office with a thick envelope and said to the old acquaintance next to him.

Zha Niangyong raised the envelope in his hand and smiled: "It's not what it used to be, martial arts are so popular, fools don't write it." ”

"Look, it's a lot of money, right? I knew that writing martial arts had a future, it was really easy to earn, and the editor-in-chief Zou was really generous......"

Liang Yusheng shook his head and smiled secretly: "The face becomes really fast, and the stinky and shameless decay really looks like a great writer, and he is worthy of being from a literati family." ”

The night before.

Ho Tingxian returned to his suite on Portland Street, turned on the light, and saw Bai Yue'e wearing a purple suspender tulle nightdress, trying on a pearl necklace in front of the bedroom mirror.

Bai Yue'e turned her body, looking lonely and admiring herself, in the dimly lit room, there was a private beauty. It's like a watch that belongs to you, lying quietly on the cabinet every day, waiting for your pampering.

She also came back to her senses at the sound of the door opening, walked quickly to the living room, saw He Dingxian change her shoes, and then entered the kitchen and opened an aluminum pot in front of the stove: "Brother Xian, it's been a day of work, go back to the house, drink a bowl of sweet porridge first." ”

Bai Yue'e scooped out a night's brightly colored and appetizing eight-treasure porridge and put it on the table in front of the sofa with the spoon.

He Dingxian turned on the TV, turned his head to look at the pearl necklace, calmly withdrew his gaze, picked up the bowl and began to drink porridge, and his eyes looked directly at the English column on the TV, which was indifferent and frightening.

Bai Yue'e felt aggrieved when she noticed that the atmosphere was wrong, and just opened her mouth to make two noises, but she didn't have enough courage to see the well-defined side face on the sofa. In the end, she stood up and turned around the table, bent down and deliberately let the wind pass through the neckline, and said flatteringly: "Brother Xian, does the newly bought dress look good?" ”

Seeing that He Dingxian didn't answer, she stepped forward and rubbed her shoulder with her head: "Do you like it?" ”

"Don't like a different one to wear to you, lace? Stockings? It's still a one-piece thin coat...... "She spat out orchid incense, getting closer and closer.

"Smack!"

He Dingxian put the soup bowl on the table heavily, turned his head to look into her eyes, and stared at her, the distance between the two eyes was less than two centimeters, Bai Yue'e was startled, her eyes were afraid, she wanted to retreat but didn't dare, she forced out a flattering smile but didn't dare to speak.

He Dingxian said straightforwardly: "If I hadn't beaten women, let alone my own women, I would have kicked you into the corner and beaten you first!" ”

"Frankly, how much money did you collect during this time?" His eyes were weak to a pearl necklace around Bai Yue'e's neck, the flattery on Bai Yue'e's face turned into pleading, he bent his knees and squatted, his hands touched his thighs and shook softly: "Brother Xian......"

"Everyone knows that I am your aunt's wife, and they will give me some gifts."

"Which Inspector Hua's aunt doesn't accept gifts...... If you don't accept it, others will think that I can't receive it, and they will think that you have no face. ”

He Dingxian stared at her and still didn't speak.

Bai Yue'e still explained softly: "What's more, during this time, according to your instructions, I often asked Inspector Lei's wife A Xia, Inspector Cai's wife's beautiful sister-in-law, Inspector Zeng, and Master Chen's women to play mahjong. ”

These old acquaintances at the level of detectives in Kowloon, the relationship must be well maintained, and the women of several people spend time together playing cards almost every day, and all of them can be regarded as good families.

Among them, only Lei Luo has not yet taken a concubine, only a legal wife, the two are considered a husband and wife in distress, it is difficult to say in the long run, Inspector Lei will definitely not take a concubine in a short time, so as not to cause stigma in vain, Inspector Cai is wife and concubine relationship is better, often the wife takes the concubine out to socialize, and the rest of Inspector Zeng and Sheriff Chen Li are actually a mess in the backyard, and the women in the family are in chaos......

Inspector Hua is famous for his love of playing, and it is common for the backyard to be messy, and it is rare to be able to stay with one wife and devote oneself to one's life, and there are not many people who can handle the backyard well.

He Dingxian has a woman, of course, she has to let women take on some auxiliary roles, and she can't sleep and eat all day long, eat and sleep, right?

The backyard socialization of the wives and concubines of Inspector Hua, in fact, the afternoon tea of the same lady serves the friendship of men.

If He Dingxian didn't let Bai Yue'e go, maybe it would cause his brothers to misunderstand, but what he wanted to talk about was not about this matter, let alone deviate Bai Yue'e's circle.

He lit a cigarette and took a deep breath: "You mean, I give you less money and make you ashamed?" ”

"That's not what I meant." Bai Yue'e hurriedly explained.

He Dingxian sneered and retorted: "Then what do you mean?" ”

If a man is the pillar of the family and has the confidence, don't reason with a woman word by word.

What women are best at is to talk nonsense, to distort your sense of purpose, and then find a crack to fight back, and then immediately turn against the customer, preemptively, make an awkward show for you, and then rely on the gender advantage to be coquettish, and then beat you when you panic, commonly known as "hypocrisy".

This is actually a set of basic operations that use "sensibility" to suppress "rationality" and "emotion" to get rid of "reason", which has existed since ancient times, which can be called overcoming rigidity with softness, or it can be said to be unreasonable, and some people think it is a "cute little temper".

If you feel unhappy, you can use power to suppress it, or fight poison with poison, and take the lead in seizing the emotional high ground when the other party is at a loss.

Grab all the enemy's positions so that the enemy has no position to defend!

At this moment, Bai Yue'e became at a loss, her expression was very uneasy, and she begged in a lamented voice: "Brother Xian, you listen to my explanation......"

"You explain."

He Dingxian said coldly.

"I explained... I...... I'm sorry, I shouldn't have reached out for money......" Bai Yue'e was born in the rivers and lakes, either beating or kneeling, and there are two ways of behaving.

When she married Lei Luo in history, she was able to call and drink, act as a prestige, and press Inspector Lei because her family was powerful at that time and pulled Lei Luo by the hand.

The set used is the "beating" of the superior emperor, in fact, it is a tigress, I feel that Lei Luo owes her family, and it is not good for Lei Luo to abandon his wife after he takes the throne, so he naturally raises more than a dozen aunts and wives outside to play casually.

And she is now He Dingxian's aunt's wife, and the family still has to rely on He Dingxian to get up, and if she meets Inspector He, she can only choose to "kneel".

He Dingxian blew smoke out of his mouth, pinched the cigarette with one hand, shook his head and sighed: "You still don't understand." ”

"Huh?"

Bai Yue'e knelt on the ground, completely panicked.

He Dingxian said: "It's no problem for you to take the money, even I take it myself, who can not take the money?" As you said, some money is not collected, and others think there is a problem. ”

"But what money should be taken and what money should not be taken, you must know in your heart!"

"You are really the daughter raised by a short mule, even if you have a posture, you don't know how to be a good inspector's aunt, I'll teach you tonight!"

"Tell me!"

"Where did you get the pearl necklace around your neck and the gold bracelet on your wrist?" At this time, He Dingxian's tone had become stern, and Bai Yue'e opened her mouth and defended: "I, my old bean ......"

"Huh!" He Dingxian pinched Bai Yue's face with his hand, and said with an unkind gaze: "Your old bean is going to be sent to you early!" ”

"Not now!"

Indeed, it is possible that Bai Fanyu sent something valuable to Bai Yue'e in order to decorate his daughter, or to express his gratitude to him for the territory.

However, the belongings should have been delivered long ago, not almost a month after the site had already been sent.

Bai Yue'e was so frightened that her eyebrows trembled, her face turned pale, and she said hurriedly: "You, you, you don't beat your own woman." ”

"First of all, I didn't hit you, and secondly, it's not a person who lied to me!" He Dingxian said fiercely: "Tell the truth! ”

"I don't have that good temper!"

Bai Yue'e didn't dare to hide anymore, and hurriedly shouted: "It was given to me by the funeral gate of Dongfu Society...... Ask me for a few kind words. ”

"That's it."

He Dingxian let go of his hand, which had not been vigorous, and said indifferently: "I guessed it a long time ago." ”

In fact, he just scared Bai Yue.

Bai Yue'e also didn't feel pain, but she was a little stupid with fright, and hurriedly took off the necklace and said, "I'll return it immediately." ”

"No, you don't."

"Since you have received it, you can wear it." He Dingxian glanced at her, and his eyes moved to the TV again: "Just remember the lesson next time." ”

This kind of woman from the rivers and lakes is not taught harshly, and I don't know what will happen next time.

He is a little bit of a fuss, but it is also for the good of both parties, otherwise, if there is a big trouble, both of them will have blood luck.

Bai Yue'e lowered her head and said, "I won't accept anything anymore." ”

He Dingxian sneered and said disdainfully: "People don't talk about things that can't be done, remember, the gift of maintaining the relationship between your friends can be accepted, and the gift of outsiders asking for errands, I haven't opened my mouth, and I can't accept it!" You can't even accept the ones that are specially delivered to you! ”

"Are you qualified to settle other people's problems? If you don't have the qualifications, don't take money! Your money, it's all mine! "He doesn't have to pay for it, he has to pay for it, and someone has to pay for all transactions.

"Got it, Brother Xian." Bai Yue'e was wearing a long suspender dress, kneeling on the ground, her expression was a little embarrassed, but her expression was pitiful, and she was really beautiful in everything.

"Let's go in the shower, I'll change into a black one-piece tulle suit later, and I'll teach you some things." He Dingxian preached without squinting and without moving his head.

"Uh-huh." Bai Yue'e agreed softly like a mosquito, propped up on the sofa and got up on the ground, Bai Huahua's thighs softened in front of the TV, as if she had been kneeling for too long, and only after recovering for a while did she walk into the bedroom to take a bath, and her mood became better while taking a bath.

She's the daughter of a gangster, what a small scene just now! I just think that Inspector He is different from the rumors in the outside world, and he is not so fierce and evil!

At least I didn't whip her with a horsewhip, I didn't pour hot oil on her, and in general, the price of the bracelet and necklace is not a loss when I calculate it.

Bai Yue'e took a shower, changed her clothes, lay on the quilt, raised her legs and crossed her legs, supported her chin and guarded the bedroom door, and was in a good mood.

How majestic you are just outside, how embarrassed you will be later, everyone has a familiar field, and when I enter my domain, I will beat you hard!

Let you might!

When He Dingxian turned off the TV and got up to leave the sofa, he suddenly had a whim: "If Bai Yue'e is not good this time, I will simply send Bai Yue'e to Miss Chu next time, and let Miss Chu teach her how to be a woman of Inspector Hua!" Miss Chu's means of teaching women are probably not bad. ”

"Otherwise, being a concubine is not as arrogant as an aunt's wife, so she really has the title of a concubine?" He was a little disgusted that Bai Yue'e didn't know how to be proportionate, but after entering the door, he suddenly felt that Bai Yue'e was very measured, and there were not many people who could dance between square inches.

The status of three wives and four concubines may not be used up, why do you save so much, the big head makes money and the small head spends, and the elder brother desperately enjoys the happiness of the younger brother! Why do you think about so many truths and rules, can you still dump her?

At two o'clock in the morning, after Bai Yue'e regained her self-confidence, she held the pillow with both hands, leaned next to the man and whispered, "Brother Xian, are you happy?" ”

"Happy." He Dingxian's tone was sleepy.

Bai Yue'e said: "My old bean asked last time when he could officially accept me as a concubine.....

"I'll talk about it tomorrow, I'm tired." He Dingxian is like a virtuous Buddha who has entered the meditation, and there is no distraction in his heart, but he feels that the seven emotions and six desires are all vain, and the world is sober but sober!
