Chapter 379 $200 million to buy copyrights
After Boss Jia bought all the film copyrights in Hong Kong and Hong Kong, he continued to send people to Taiwan, Fuso, United States, Europe and other countries, and also tried to find a way to buy the permanent film rights of the old movies in these countries.
Although because of the leading technology, Mi Guo has a little bit of awareness and imagination about the Internet, and there are many film companies that are not bad for money, even if they keep them in their hands, they don't plan to sell them, so some of the old movie copyrights have not been bought.
But there are always people who are willing to sell, so at the end of 93, Daqian Entertainment has spent nearly 100 million US dollars and acquired the lifetime rights of more than 40,000 movies around the world, accounting for 70% of the world's films produced after 1950, including the lifetime disc copyright and network copyright of well-known movies such as Jurassic, Star Wars, and Terminator.
That's not all, Boss Jia later found out that he had missed the music copyright, so he also spent about 100 million US dollars to buy back the electronic copyright of 90% of the world's song library, of which 50% of the songs were bought back with the electronic copyright and CD copyright.
All of these are purchased exclusively, and in the future, only Daqian will be authorized to play these movies and music on the Internet and CD carriers.
No way, at this time, some music companies have begun to use cd as a carrier of songs, many people realize the value of cd copyright, and it is difficult to buy CD copyright at a low price, but online copyright is still cheap.
This large number of rights purchases also caused a small stir in the music industry and film and television circles around the world, and then many people began to laugh at the stupidity of the company, which actually spent a full 200 million dollars on these worthless copyrights.
Fortunately, Jia Yapeng's people have always been very careful, and they all bought these copyrights through the leather bag company, and finally poured them into Daqian's copyright library, so except for a few people in the world, basically no one knows that these copyrights were purchased by Daqian.
It wasn't until a few years later that the Internet age came.
Ahem, let's get down to business
Boss Jia sent all the film copyrights of Hong Kong and Hong Kong that he could buy, as well as copies of their master tapes, to Yuzhang, using the transcription machine designed by Mr. Ni, these film and video tapes will all be transcribed into digital formats, and then laser engraved on the disc, waiting for the VCD to be sold.
However, Boss Jia still has to stay in Hong Kong and Hong Kong for a few more days, because the process of equity transfer of Kowloon Construction will take a few days to complete. In addition, Boss Jia still has to look for Zhou Xingxing, and it will soon be the agreed time for the filming of "Journey to the West", and Boss Jia feels that it is necessary to communicate with Zhou Xingxing about some details.
But what Boss Jia didn't expect was that he hadn't found Zhou Xingxing yet, and a phone call from Zhou Xingxing came, and he told Jia Yapeng very apologetically on the phone that he couldn't participate in "Journey to the West".
Just when Boss Jia hung up the phone in a daze, the staff of Daqian Entertainment suddenly anxiously came over and told Boss Jia, including Wu Mengda and Zhu Yin, the actors who had already agreed on it, broke the contract one after another, saying that they couldn't come.
"Journey to the West", which has been almost prepared, and even the filming base has begun to be built, is directly facing the situation that all the actors refuse to act.
"What's going on? Who the hell is doing this! "Even if Jia Yapeng is stupid, he can understand that this is by no means an accident, but someone is deliberately correcting himself.
And this person's energy is extremely high, otherwise he would not be able to force many Hong Kong stars, including Zhou Xingxing, to give up the contracts they have signed. Even if these palms don't lose money, their reputation and reputation will suffer greatly.
But the question is, who is this person?
Jia Yapeng asked himself that he hadn't offended anyone in Hong Kong, and no one else could offend a billionaire like Boss Jia, so who would be secretly using means to toss our Boss Jia.
Just when Jia Yapeng had a black face and was going to find someone to figure out the situation, the next day, an invitation was sent to Jia Yapeng, with the name of Xiang Huaqiang, chairman of China's new group, written on it.
Boss Jia instantly understood, it turned out that he had offended this great god.
Xiang Huaqiang, the chairman of China New Group, the production company of the God of Gamblers series of movies, in fact, two days ago, Jia Yapeng and others personally negotiated with China Star Group to buy the copyright in their hands.
It's just that in the middle, Xiang Huaqiang didn't show up because he was in Wanwan, and it was Boss Jia who came to receive them by the general manager of their company. The whole negotiation process was also quite smooth, and all the copyrights under China Star were bought back at a slightly higher price.
The reason why the price is slightly higher is naturally because Boss Jia is a little jealous of Xiang Huaqiang behind the Chinese star.
Although in 2018, the Imperial Capital Haidian District People's Court once announced that the news of the underworld background of Huaqiang, the target of NetXe, was false, unrealistic, and without any evidence, and demanded that the company apologize to Xiang Huaqiang.
Then NetXeasy apologized.
But it is said that when this news came out, everyone in Hong Kong and Hong Kong went crazy with laughter, and there was actually a court ruling that Xiang Huaqiang had no underworld background, but they were going to laugh crazy.
Of course, this can't be blamed on the court, because the court is a place that pays attention to evidence, how can a self-media company chasing after the wind and shadows find evidence of Xiang Huaqiang's underworld, and even the Independent Commission Against Corruption in Hong Kong and Hong Kong could not find any evidence to prove Xiang Huaqiang's personal problems.
So we have to believe that Xiang Huaqiang is innocent, and he is indeed a good person.
However, Xiang Huaqiang's father was called Xiangqian, and later created the new Ngee An, and the entire New Ngee An implemented a hereditary system, and the Xiang family will always be the leader of the new Ngee An.
Well, some things stop at the point, anyway, like Huaqiang's influence in the Hong Kong and Hong Kong entertainment circles is huge, and its deterrent power is even more terrifying, the name is like a killing god, and any Hong Kong and Hong Kong people will tremble when they hear it.
So if Xiang Huaqiang speaks, and all the celebrities, including Zhou Xingxing, refuse to act, it is extremely normal, on the contrary, someone dares to jump out to act, that is abnormal.
So the question is, now that Xiang Huaqiang has put his business card and invitation in front of Boss Jia, what should Boss Jia do?
In fact, there are two ways now, one is that Boss Jia will turn around and leave, as long as he returns to the mainland, even if Xiang Huaqiang has other skills, he can't move Boss Jia. But in this way, Boss Jia is afraid that he will fall into the name of a timid mouse.
A few years later, when future generations write jokes, they will have such an interesting story.
What was the total deterrent power of Xiang back then, even if the richest man arrived in Hong Kong and Hong Kong, just because he offended Xiang Huaqiang, he received an invitation from the other party, and turned around and left.
In this way, even if Boss Jia becomes the richest man, there will be one more joke-like story in the future.
But if you go, will Boss Jia's life be lost?
Jia Yapeng pondered for a while, and felt that this was impossible, even if Hua Qiang really wanted to get himself, it was impossible to send him an invitation before he did it, didn't this make it clear that he would send the evidence to himself?
Besides, even if Jia Yapeng has no foundation in Hong Kong and Hong Kong, his relationship in the mainland is now considered to be open to the sky, if Hua Qiang really dares to move Jia Yapeng, as soon as Hong Kong and Hong Kong return, he can only flee abroad to hide for his life.
And although Xiang Huaqiang is ruthless, he is actually very measured in doing things, sometimes he will bully the actors, for the real business bosses, Xiang Huaqiang will never be brutal.
So after thinking about it comprehensively, Jia Yapeng decided to go to such a Hongmen banquet, but the people around him asked Jia Jiayue and them to stay in the hotel, and Jia Yapeng took a general manager of Daqian Entertainment to the appointment.
The wind is sluggish and the water is cold, and Jia Yapeng is gone...... You guess
