Chapter 212: Chapter 212: The Regret in My Heart_1

Both parties signed an agreement, Shen Dong would find investors and invest within seven days.

During this period, Zhang Xinde could not seek other investors.

Whichever side breached the contract would have to pay a substantial penalty.

At noon, Shen Dong and his team were dining at the Dacheng Group cafeteria.

That same afternoon, the Dongyan Investment team took a flight back to Hai City.

Shen Dong and Chen Yuyan did not leave, there was no need to rush.

They planned to invite Lee Xue to dinner that evening, then return the next day.

Shen Dong and Chen Yuyan first went back to the hotel.

Just after arriving at the hotel, the phone rang, it was Zhou Chengyu calling.

After answering, Shen Dong heard Zhou Chengyu’s excited voice, "Shen Dong, you’re incredible!"

"What happened?" Shen Dong asked.

He had a guess in his mind, if nothing unexpected, it was probably the beginning of the national crackdown on piracy.

Sure enough, the next second, he heard Zhou Chengyu excitedly say, "Just now, the National Copyright Office together with other relevant departments launched a special operation to crack down on piracy, our invested copyright companies are going to make money, and I mean big money, haha!"

Shen Dong was naturally very pleased.

The investment in acquiring Lixing Copyright Company was finally going to pay off.

"Shen Dong, you’ve invested over five hundred million this time, purchasing so many film and television copyrights; your Lixing Copyright Company is going to make a huge profit," Zhou Chengyu said.

"You guys will make quite a bit too," Shen Dong laughed.

Zhou Chengyu, Wang Xiaocong, and Wan Pengfei jointly acquired a copyright company called Dongsheng Copyright Company, spending a total of one hundred million.

After acquiring the company, they bought a large number of film, animation, and music copyrights.

Now, Dongsheng Copyright Company ranks second in the industry.

Naturally, the one in the first rank is Shen Dong’s Lixing Copyright Company.

The current Lixing Copyright Company is the hegemon of film and television copyrights.

"Haha, I should thank you, you’re the one that made us money, I’ll treat you tonight. Let’s invite Mr. Wang and Mr. Wan too, you pick the place, how about that for generous?" Zhou Chengyu laughed heartily.

"Not tonight, I’m still in Hu Province Sha City, I won’t be back until tomorrow, let’s do it tomorrow night," Shen Dong said.

"What are you doing in Sha City? Don’t tell me you’re working on another investment project?" Zhou Chengyu instantly became interested.

If it wasn’t important, Shen Dong certainly wouldn’t have gone to Sha City.

Could it be that Shen Dong had found another good investment project?

"I’ll tell you about it tomorrow," Shen Dong laughed.

"Okay, I’ll call you tomorrow," Zhou Chengyu didn’t ask further.

The call ended.

Chen Yuyan asked, "Honey, what’s going on?"

She hadn’t been eavesdropping and didn’t know what Shen Dong and Zhou Chengyu were talking about.

But she felt that it was good news.

"The state has already started the action against piracy, you should know what that means," Shen Dong said with a smile.

"Your Lixing Copyright Company is going to make money!" Chen Yuyan’s eyes lit up, excitedly saying.

She knew that Shen Dong had invested two billion to acquire Lixing Copyright Company and had poured in five hundred and fifty million more to purchase a large amount of film, music, novel, and various other copyrights.

The current Lixing Copyright Company was now the industry’s hegemon.

With the state cracking down on piracy, the prices of those copyrights would skyrocket.

"Yes, not just making money, but making a lot of it," Shen Dong laughed.

As his words ended, the phone rang again.

This time, it was Wang Xiaocong calling.

After answering, Shen Dong immediately heard Wang Xiaocong’s hearty laughter: "Haha, Shen Dong, thanks to you this time..."

A few minutes later, Shen Dong hung up the phone.

What Wang Xiaocong said was similar to Zhou Chengyu’s words.

After hanging up, Shen Dong then received a call from Wan Pengfei, who had the same message as Zhou Chengyu and Wang Xiaocong.

After ending the call, he received a call from Lu Xingzhou, the general manager of Lixing Copyright Company.

The excited manager said, "Mr. Shen, before I wondered why you had me purchase so many film, music, and other copyrights, now I finally understand, you’re really impressive."

Lu Xingzhou was thoroughly impressed by Shen Dong.

In his view, Shen Dong must have received certain news.

Knowing that the state was going to take action, he decided to buy copyrights early.

What a huge profit!

The ability to receive such news showed how profound Shen Dong’s background was.

Although rumors outside suggested that Shen Dong had no background, that he relied on personal effort to achieve today’s success.

For this, Lu Xingzhou was quite skeptical.

How could an ordinary person do so much in less than a year.

Shen Dong definitely had an unknown background.

If not for the background, who would purchase so many copyrights without knowing the state’s action against piracy?

Impossible!

Shen Dong’s background was not non-existent, but just undiscovered by others.

That made it even more frightening.

So many powerful figures had not uncovered Shen Dong’s background, showing just how terrifying it must be.

If Shen Dong knew Lu Xingzhou’s thoughts, he would probably find it amusing and tragic.

He had no such background; he only had a system.

However, no background could compare to the system.

Shen Dong instructed, "Mr. Lu, if someone wants to buy our film and other related copyrights, you must report to me first; I’ll make the decision."

Lu Xingzhou was taken aback, then immediately replied, "Sure."

Although he didn’t understand why Shen Dong wanted to do this.

But as the boss, Shen Dong’s orders were to be followed.

According to his guess, Shen Dong must be aiming for a certain result.

That result was not for him to know.

Shen Dong indeed had a certain goal in mind.

The copyrights owned by Lixing Copyright Company could be used as a weapon.

That matter might really be possible to accomplish.

The call ended.

Shen Dong and Chen Yuyan then rested a bit.

In the evening, they left the hotel and went to a restaurant to have dinner with Lee Xue.

While Shen Dong was having dinner, a middle-aged man in Hai City, weary from the day, returned home and sat on the sofa to rest, waiting for dinner.

The middle-aged man took out his mobile phone to check the news and saw the state’s action against piracy, his vision darkened, he almost fainted.

"How could this happen, if I had held on until now, I would have made it big."

The man’s face was filled with regret, pounding his chest and stamping his feet.

This middle-aged man was none other than Xu Fei, the former owner of Lixing Copyright Company.

Not long ago, he sold Lixing Copyright Company to Shen Dong for two billion, thinking he could finally be free.

He could use the two billion in capital to create a second spring for his career.

During this time, he had been looking for projects but hadn’t found any good ones.

Now, seeing the business he had stuck with for over a decade finally bearing fruit.

Regrettably, the fruit no longer belonged to him.

If he hadn’t sold the company and had held on for a few more months, his life would have changed.

All that talk about creating a second spring for his career was nonsense.

His regret was immense.
