Chapter 12: Mother-in-law is back!
Yan Ai did not stay in Zi Buyu Pottery Studio for too long. She had to go back to deal with the plagiarism issue and give an explanation to the editorial department as soon as possible.
Three years ago, on the day she and Feng Jue got their marriage certificate, something happened.
She clearly remembered that Feng Jue did not return to the bridal chamber in Yuting Bay that night, but Feng Yueying came. She first pointed at her nose and cursed at her, and then Feng Yueying rushed into her bedroom regardless of anything and smashed her things, making a mess on the floor.
Fortunately, she did not bring any confidential documents to Yuting Bay at that time, otherwise she would definitely be in trouble.
But the notebook where she usually recorded her writing inspiration was there, and at that time there were two maids in Yutingwan, one responsible for daily cleaning and the other for cooking.
After Feng Yueying finished her mad act and left, the two maids also came in to help clean up her bedroom.
At that time, she thought that the notebook was destroyed by Feng Yueying and then cleared away by her aunt, so she didn't pay much attention to it.
It now seems that the problem lies with the missing notebook.
Whoever has the notebook is the one who accuses her of plagiarism.
But how can she find it?
Yan Ai has been thinking about this problem for the past two days, and now, she finally has an idea.
After returning to the hotel, Yan Ai first called An Chi to communicate, hoping that he could persuade the editorial department to hold back and not issue a statement, to handle the situation calmly and allow public opinion to continue to ferment.
An Chi agreed.
She also thought of something and said, "Senior An Chi, after this matter is resolved, I expect more people will come to negotiate the copyright for the new book, but I don't want to sell it for the time being. You might be under pressure then, so I want to give you a heads-up."
An Chi didn't understand, "Not selling? Why?"
Yan Ai didn't explain much, just said, "It's just for now, the copyright is still useful."
An Chi trusted her very much, so he agreed to everything without asking any more questions.
After hanging up the phone, Yan Ai did not feel relieved.
There is still a lot to do next.
If she remembered correctly, Feng Jue's childhood sweetheart, actress Jiang, would be returning to China soon.
The first move that Xiao Qingmei prepared to make after returning to China was to announce in a high-profile manner that she would be starring in the movie "Out of Nowhere" co-invested by Feng Jue and Shen Yihang.
Xiao Qingmei soared to fame again with this movie, winning the highest honor in the film industry, the "Best Actress Award", and swept all major film festivals, becoming the talk of the town and a well-deserved "coming out of nowhere".
The movie "Out of the Blue" was adapted from the science fiction suspense novel of the same name that she wrote when she got married at the age of 20. She had already known that the film and television rights were bought by Feng Jue, and it was an exclusive buyout.
She wrote the novel and he filmed it. At that time, she thought this secret connection was sweet and romantic, but now it only feels disgusting.
She couldn't go back on her word for the four books she had already sold, but she was determined not to sell him the newest one!
Now she is no longer a small and unknown author and has the right to decide whether to sell the copyright of novels and films.
If the publishing house insisted on selling it, she would not understand the contract.
Feng Jue really wanted to get the exclusive film and television rights to Xingchen's fifth work. If it weren't for the plagiarism incident, he would probably be in the contact stage now.
However, even if plagiarism occurs, public opinion is a double-edged sword. It may be a bad thing for the author, but not necessarily for businessmen.
Feng Jue was in a good mood today. Even though he met that woman in the hotel yesterday, it did not affect his good mood.
He had just finished signing the document in his hand when he heard his assistant Zhao Xuyang knock on the door and come in with a cell phone in his hand and sweat on his forehead.
"Mr. Feng, the chairman and his wife have just changed their flights and returned home early. They will arrive at the Capital Airport around 5 pm."
