Chapter 218: Chapter 218 Help has come_1
Chen Yuting arrived at the elevator doors and immediately pressed the descent button.
She felt terrible, all she wanted was to get away from here as quickly as possible.
Soon, the elevator doors opened.
But, Chen Yuting saw someone walk out from inside.
It was a woman in business attire, wearing high heels.
Her appearance was exactly like hers, except she seemed a thousand times more spirited.
Indeed, this woman was her sister, Chen Yuyan.
"Yuting," Chen Yuyan stepped out of the elevator, saw Chen Yuting, and immediately froze.
"Sis." Chen Yuting forced a smile on her face.
"Yuting, what brings you here..." Chen Yuyan asked.
"Sis, I have something to attend to, I’ll be leaving first." Chen Yuting hurried into the elevator, pressed the button for the first floor, and then the door close button.
Chen Yuyan wanted to say something else, but the elevator doors had already closed.
She didn’t think too much of it, just shook her head and walked towards Lixing Company.
"Mr. Chen, good morning," the receptionist said as soon as she saw Chen Yuyan, promptly greeting her.
This time, she was certain she wouldn’t mistake her.
"Good morning," Chen Yuyan replied with a smile and a nod.
"Mr. Chen, there was someone who looked a lot like you here just now..." The receptionist related the earlier situation, "Mr. Chen, I hope I haven’t spoken out of turn. If I have, you can punish me any way you like, just please don’t fire me, okay?"
By the end, the receptionist looked at Chen Yuyan with begging eyes, which were turning red with plea.
"You," Chen Yuyan said with amusement, extending her hand to pat the receptionist’s head, "Who said anything about firing you? You haven’t said or done anything wrong. Don’t worry about it too much."
"Thank you, Mr. Chen," the receptionist said, relieved and joyful.
She was afraid of being fired, but with Chen Yuyan’s assurance, she knew she was safe from being dismissed and could relax.
"Alright, back to work. I’m going to find Mr. Lu," Chen Yuyan said with a smile and went to look for Lu Xingzhou.
She had to review Lixing Company’s accounts today.
...
Penguin Film and Television.
General Manager’s Office.
"What did you say, Lixing Company is selling rights to other video websites, but not to us? And that I should contact their boss, Shen Dong?"
General Manager Jiang Wenrui frowned immediately upon hearing his deputy’s words.
"Yes, that’s what the General Manager of Lixing Company, Lu Xingzhou, said," the deputy nodded.
He had been the one to contact Lu Xingzhou, the manager of Lixing Company, who simply told him they wouldn’t sell and that if there was an issue, to contact the boss, even giving him Shen Dong’s phone number.
"What exactly does Shen Dong mean by this?" Jiang Wenrui frowned.
"I don’t know. I asked, but Lu Xingzhou didn’t tell me. Dongsheng Company said the same thing, they won’t sell us the rights, they said to go to Shen Dong if there’s an issue," the deputy said with a bitter taste in his mouth.
"Dongsheng Company and Lixing Company are obviously in lockstep," Jiang Wenrui stated.
"Yes," the deputy agreed with a nod.
"Could it be because last time Penguin Film and Television interfered with the project initiation of ’I Am Not a Pharmacist,’ now Shen Dong wants to take revenge?" Jiang Wenrui said with a frown.
He was aware of the previous situation when Penguin Film and Television approached Shen Dong for investing in "I Am Not a Pharmacist."
After their negotiation fell through, Penguin Film and Television tried to use a new director’s script to block the project initiation of "I Am Not a Pharmacist."
However, that was before Wang Xiaocong got involved and the matter was nipped in the bud.
"It’s very likely," the deputy said. "Mr. Jiang, since they asked you to call Shen Dong, you will have to step in. I’m unable to resolve this. Here is Shen Dong’s phone number."
He placed a slip of paper in front of Jiang Wenrui.
Jiang Wenrui nodded, picked up the cellphone on the desk, and dialed Shen Dong’s number.
Soon, the call was connected.
Jiang Wenrui immediately said, "Mr. Shen Dong, hello, I am Jiang Wenrui, the general manager of Penguin Video."
"Mr. Jiang, hello," Shen Dong said with a smile.
"Mr. Shen, I’m already aware of the situation. What are your intentions?" Jiang Wenrui didn’t beat around the bush and asked straightforwardly.
He didn’t want to chat with Shen Dong about the nice weather and how it was suitable for a trip.
In business, things should be dealt with as they are—no need for pleasantries.
Shen Dong replied with a laugh, "Mr. Jiang is quick to the point, which I like. I recently went to Zhenzi Country, hoping to secure the rights to distribute ’Survivor of the Absolute Sea’ in Dragon Country, but Penguin Games has money, so I had to admit defeat. Penguin Games got the distribution rights for ’Survivor of the Absolute Sea’, but I really want those rights."
Jiang Wenrui, of course, understood Shen Dong’s implication and said, "Mr. Shen, Penguin Video and Penguin Games are on equal footing. We cannot interfere with each other’s decisions. I can only promise to try and persuade Penguin Games to give up the distribution rights to you."
Shen Dong said, "Then let me thank you in advance, Mr. Jiang. Don’t worry, I’m not asking for the distribution rights for nothing. I wouldn’t do something so tasteless—that’s not my style. Regardless of how much Penguin Games spent to secure the rights, I’m willing to offer a premium of ten million to buy them."
Jiang Wenrui laughed, "Alright, I believe Penguin Games will be accommodating."
He knew about the distribution rights for ’Survivor of the Absolute Sea’. The general manager of Penguin Games had spent fifty million to obtain them from Green Cave Company from Zhenzi Country.
A premium of ten million to transfer them.
Jiang Wenrui felt that he should be able to persuade the general manager of Penguin Games, Wei Haoran.
After ending the call, Jiang Wenrui immediately dialed Wei Haoran’s number.
Soon, the call was connected.
"Old Jiang, what brings you to call me today?"
Wei Haoran’s hearty laugh rang out.
These days, he was in a very good mood.
Securing the rights to ’Survivor of the Absolute Sea’ had been one of his wisest decisions in years.
He was very optimistic about the game, feeling confident it would become a hit.
Due to the state crackdown on piracy, Penguin Video was having a tough time.
Jiang Wenrui should be overwhelmed with problems, so why would he have the time to call Wei Haoran?
"Old Wei, this time I’m coming to you for help," Jiang Wenrui said with a wry smile.
"Coming to me for help? What do you mean?" Wei Haoran asked, curious.
He knew that Jiang Wenrui was a proud person who wouldn’t easily ask others for help.
Now it wasn’t just asking for help, but seeking rescue, which was even more serious.
What in the world had happened?
"Old Wei, do you remember telling me that you went to Zhenzi Country last time and secured the rights to a game called ’Survivor of the Absolute Sea’?" Jiang Wenrui asked.
"Yeah, what about it? Don’t tell me your issue has something to do with my game ’Survivor of the Absolute Sea’?" Wei Haoran was puzzled.
There should be no relationship between the two.
You handle your video business, and I handle my games.
They are unrelated.
"Yes, this game is related to the life and death of Penguin Video," Jiang Wenrui said.
"How’s that?" Wei Haoran became even more puzzled.
He couldn’t figure out how a single game could affect the survival of a video website, especially since Penguin Video was the leading platform in the domestic market.
"Old Wei, that guy named Shen Dong said he met you in Zhenzi Country, you should remember him, right?" Jiang Wenrui said.
