"Galaxy and You" sold 520,000 copies in the last quarter, plus 660,000 copies in the first quarter. It exceeded the one million copy mark in just half a year after being on the market. This time, the pre-tax income distributed to Wen Ying was 1.2 million.
The Spring Festival of 2007 was the first prosperous year for Wen Ying after her rebirth. The wealthy wallet made Lawyer Wen a little proud.
But Wen Ying still felt something was wrong...as if she had forgotten something?
It was not until the meeting ended and Yuan Fenghui asked Wen Ying to stay alone that Wen Ying realized what she had missed.
I forgot to calculate the share of the derivative copyright of "Star River and You"!
When filming "Star River With You", Wen Ying was not yet a shareholder of Tianjiao. She privately raised 4 million yuan to invest in the filming, accounting for one-tenth of the total production cost.
The profits from selling the broadcasting rights of "Starry River With You" have long been distributed to Wen Ying, but the related derivative copyrights have not yet been distributed. Tianjiao cannot deny Wen Ying, an investor, the share of profits just because she became a shareholder of Tianjiao.
"In other words, one-tenth of the money earned by Tianjiao from the novel of the same name, 'Xinghe You', must be given to me..."
This money is not a lot.
Tianjiao will take as much as Wen Ying gets from the publishing house, and Tianjiao will also deduct the advertising costs.
However, the album "Starry River With You", including the ringtones of related songs, earns more than the royalties of the novel.
Yuan Fenghui gave Wen Ying a detailed account statement: "After adding up everything, I can give you another 1.98 million. I'm talking about the net income after tax. So, I didn't hurt you by encouraging you to invest more, did I?"
There was a hint of pride in Yuan Fenghui's tone, and it was obvious that she had not forgotten the last time Wen Ying pretended to have a stomachache and ran away while covering her purse.
Wen Ying was reluctant to invest so much in the project of "Star River With You" at the beginning. It was all because Yuan Fenghui was watching her like a thief. Whenever Wen Ying had some money in her pocket, she would coax and deceive Wen Ying into investing. As time went by, Wen Ying alone bore 1/10 of the production cost of a drama... That's a full 4 million!
