Chapter 135 Director Tang: You also said it was a Bugatti Veyron.
Yan Yueqing is an old bookworm. He has read at least 800 books and can eat anything. He is a typical example of an tolerant person who eats whatever the author writes.
One time, she saw a book by a new author named "Yueluomianxing" on the China Literature platform. Although his writing style was still immature, the plot setting was interesting and she started reading it for a long time.
This author replies to every book review, and does not hide spoilers at all, as if to explain the characters to you directly. After joining the group, if someone asks for spoilers, she will happily give them to you.
Unfortunately, just when she was showing signs of becoming famous, she encountered two of the most difficult tribulations in the author world.
Plagiarism and piracy.
Let’s not talk about the first one for now. At that time, the definition of intellectual property rights in Chinese law was very narrow. As long as the large-scale plagiarism did not exceed a certain percentage, it could not be judged. If someone changed the name and borrowed the plot, it would be like the first case that Lawyer Qian took on. The chance of winning was very small!
But how many wealthy lawyers are there in the world?
Then there is piracy. Yueluo, alerted by fans, discovered many platforms that pirated her works. Even within ten minutes of her posting a new chapter, others had sorted out and posted it all.
She politely contacted the platform author, hoping that he could handle the matter.
Some were friendly, just liked the article and simply wanted to share it with netizens, not knowing that publishing VIP chapters in other places without the author's consent was considered infringement, and immediately cooperated after learning about it. Some agreed on the surface, but blocked her, or even changed her account to continue posting.
It's typical that they took away your job and then blamed you for updating slowly!
Yueluo was speechless for a long time. Yan Yueqing even chatted with her privately to comfort her. Yueluo felt wronged and helpless: "I actually understand why they read pirated copies. Some people really don't have much money, but they really like my books...
But what I don't understand is that in China, why would anyone be proud of watching pirated content? You say that some people don't have money, so they watch it. But if they are willing to come to the official app and give me some free recommendation votes to increase my popularity, I would be happy as hell...
But some people not only read it outside, but also went to my comment section to say don’t read this, it costs money, a certain pirated website doesn’t pay a penny... Do you think my genuine readers would think that since the update time is almost the same anyway, it’s better to read pirated products than to spend money?
There are so many platforms under Yuewen, such as Xiao, Qi, Xiu and Q. Some newcomers can read for free for a few days, some can subscribe to a monthly subscription, and the sign-in points can be exchanged for reading coins... There are really many ways to read genuine books..."
They just find it troublesome.
It feels like you work hard on a design, only to be told by your boss that it would be better to use AI to do it and save money!
To be honest, she can understand that students who really have no money would read pirated books, but when the whole environment is like this, no one cares about the intellectual property rights of the author, and when they come across a book they like, they will go to find a pirated copy. Some people even say with a clear conscience: "Your book costs money, why shouldn't I read it if I have a free one?"
But she was just a small author after all, and had no ability to compete with such a sick circle. Later, she barely finished the book she was working on and retired from the circle.
I mentioned it in the fan group, and the second article with a carefully conceived plot, "The Vicious Female Supporting Character Was Sticked to by Kids in a Kids' Variety Show", also came to nothing in the end...
When Yan Yueqing was at her most powerless, she met the author she most wanted to protect.
After coming to this world, she had searched for information about Yueluo, but it was as if he had never appeared. So she thought seriously that if she could meet him again, she would become the author's most loyal supporter!
You just need to write, write and write!
Anything else?
It doesn’t matter, my legal team will take action!
At night, Director Tang was still busy with the acquisition when his cell phone suddenly rang.
"Hello, Mr. Tang. We are the staff of the C City Auto Show. We are downstairs according to the address filled in by Miss Yan."
Director Tang: "Are you downstairs of my house? I'll come down with my ID now."
The other party was very polite: "Don't worry, I will come to your house to handle the formalities for you later. I called you to ask if the community garage is convenient for parking? Or can we help you send your car to other places?"
"It's convenient. I have a parking space." After Director Tang learned that Yan Yueqing was going to send Tang Tang by car, he specially asked his assistant to drive his car to the company and free up a parking space.
"Okay, I'll wait for you to sign for it downstairs."
Director Tang went downstairs as agreed.
He had seen the car delivery service before. They would drive the car over, and the owner would confirm that there were no problems. They would go through the handover formalities, pull a big red silk cloth, take two photos, and it would be done.
But, after going downstairs.
He did not see the car.
Two staff members in suits stood straight in front of a large trailer.
There were also many onlookers who were taking out their mobile phones to take pictures of a huge box at the back of the trailer.
Director Tang was stunned. Why would a car need a trailer? Can't they just drive over directly?
The staff came up to him and said, "Hello, Mr. Tang! The car has been delivered to you. Next, we will draw the curtain for you. After confirming that there is no problem with the car, please sign the delivery note."
And drawing the curtain, is it such a ceremonial feeling?
The staff walked over and slowly pulled down the huge black curtain under the expectant gaze of everyone.
The huge glass box, with the push of a button, instantly lit up. It was as if the exhibition hall had been moved here, and under the bright light, a blue sports car shone brightly.
The onlookers were all shocked.
"What a noble sense of ceremony! What kind of car is so awesome? It looks so expensive."
"I don't know, it looks super beautiful at first glance! I'll take a picture and ask the car expert."
"Shit?! Bugatti Veyron?!"
"Huh? What car? Just five words, and it sounds expensive!"
"How can a car worth nearly 30 million not be expensive?"
"30 million?!!!"
Director Tang was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth.
He is still too naive...
I thought that what Mr. Yue gave me was just a small car worth hundreds of thousands of yuan...
The result?! No one told him it was a Bugatti Veyron!!!
In Director Yang's Sweetheart Room, Li Manman was browsing Weibo when she suddenly frowned: "Hubby, look, someone gave Director Tang a sports car?!"
Director Yang was worrying about stocks. Upon hearing this, he frowned and walked over.
Recently, Director Tang got a huge amount of money from somewhere and directly took away 40% of the company's stocks. Not only did some old shareholders sell their shares, they also came to him to persuade them to let go.
"Ever since the Jun family invested 200 million, Director Tang suddenly wants to buy stocks! Where did he get so much money? It's most likely from the Jun family!"
"Old Yang, I checked for you. The bank that sent the money to Director Tang is ES Bank. There are only a handful of people in our country who have this bank account!"
"Sell the stocks early and give the Jun family some face. Maybe we can let them see our sincerity!"
Director Yang was still refusing to give in, thinking that there might be hope for a turnaround.
But when he heard that someone had given Director Tang a Bugatti Veyron, he finally couldn't hold it in anymore...
