NOVEL SIMPLE Chapter 260
Chapter 259 Is Really Ugly
This is quite unreasonable. It is true that Shen Yifan uploaded the novel on their platform, but he has not signed a contract. How can the copyright not be his own?
In the face of doubts, Shen Yifan was also very embarrassed, saying that he talked with the staff of the website for a long time, but the other party did not let go, and said that as long as it was uploaded on their platform, the copyright belonged to them.
If there are shrimp games that want to adapt, they must pay them the copyright fee.
If Zhang Yan is not willing, he will not have the right to adapt “Journey to the West”. At the same time, although Shen Yifan deleted the content of the novel in the background, there is still a backup in their database~.
They can restore the data whenever they want.
At present, 80% of the daily activity on their website is clicking on the book “Journey to the West”.
Because since Zhang Yan confessed that his next game was adapted from such a novel, many fans of Shrimp Game Company found this book on the Internet and wanted to know the content of the game in advance.
It’s just because Shen Yifan has deleted the content, so fans can’t see it at all.
Now, there are even many fans who have tipped tens of thousands of dollars to “Journey to the West”, hoping that Shen Yifan can restore the content and let them read the content of the book.
If there is a shrimp game company that does not pay them the copyright fee, they will restore the content of Shen Yifan’s book and force it to be put on the shelves, so that fans can subscribe to watch it.
At that time, because the content of the book is leaked, the game content will also be acquired by fans, which is equivalent to spoilers.
The website is currently using this matter to threaten Shen Yifan and ask him to talk to the person in charge of the shrimp game company.
Either you have the shrimp game company to pay the copyright fee, or I expose your content.
And their staff also quietly told Shen Yifan that if your company pays the copyright fee, we can give you 20%, so you also have money to take it.
Hearing what Shen Yifan said, Zhang Yan was really about to be laughed at by the person in charge of this website.
Zhang Yan knew that there were a lot of people in the business world, and there were too many shameless people for money.
But Zhang Yan never thought that some people could be so shameless.
Seeing that Zhang Yan was really angry, Shen Yifan blamed himself, saying that it was his own fault. He also did not expect that this website called Mingdu would look so ugly.
Zhang Yan waved his hand and said, “How can you be blamed for this? You don’t know anyone on this website, and it’s normal for you not to know how shameless the person in charge of the website is. 99
Shen Yifan wondered: “Then cousin, what should I do about this? If the other party really restores my book, it will inevitably be a spoiler, and it may have an impact on our game…”
“It’s alright, leave this to me.” Zhang Yan stretched out his hand, “Did the person in charge of that website ask you to think about it clearly and call them back? You give me the number, and I will He called and asked.”5
Although Shen Yifan didn’t know what Zhang Yan was going to do, he still handed the phone over obediently.
Zhang Yan called back Ming Dushu’s boss. After the call was connected, a man’s voice came from the other end of the phone: “Hello, Mr. Shen, how is it, have you thought about it?”
“I said before, let You Shrimp Game Company pay us the copyright fee, and we will also give you a part. Isn’t this a win-win result? 35
Zhang Yan pressed the record button, and then said, “Hello, I’m not Shen Yifan, I’m Zhang Yan, the owner of You Shrimp Game Company.
The other end of the phone was stunned for a moment, and then quickly said: “Oh oh oh… It turned out to be Boss Zhang, hello hello.
Zhang Yan didn’t say too many polite words to him, and went straight to the topic: “I already know everything, we want to adapt “Journey to the West”, we need to pay you a copyright fee, right?”
“That’s right, that’s right.” Facing Zhang Yan, the boss said indifferently without any fear, “Because “Journey to the West” is a work serialized on our platform, theoretically the copyright should belong to us.”
“So if your company wants to adapt, it involves a copyright issue…”
Zhang Yan interrupted the other party’s words and asked: “But Shen Yifan has not signed a contract with your company at all, so why is there a copyright dispute? Does he write an article in the circle of friends, and the copyright of this article belongs to Duck Farm? ?’

The other party had long expected that Zhang Yan would ask this question, and after smiling, he said, “Boss Zhang, this is not right.
“We are a novel platform, which is different from a certain circle of friends. You are an outsider and may not understand the reasoning. If necessary, I can ask our company’s lawyer to explain to you why ” The copyright of Black Journey to the West is in the hands of our website.”
Zhang Yan laughed when he heard it: “Do you still have a lawyer?”
The other party was full of confidence and replied: “Of course. Also, our lawyers are especially good at handling copyright disputes.”
“Boss Zhang, you don’t need to be too angry about this matter, and it’s not without room for negotiation. In the end, it’s our representative Shen Yifan who wants to talk to you about the copyright fee for the adaptation of the work.

“I know that Shen Yifan is your employee, so I would like to know, if your company wants to adapt this work, will it pay Mr. Shen Yifan the adaptation fee?”
Zhang Yan replied: “Of course pay. Our company will give him 10 million in game copyright fees.””
“Ten million?!” The other party was obviously shocked by Zhang Yan’s wealth.
But he immediately stabilized his emotions and continued: “That’s it, Mr. Zhang. You don’t need to talk to Mr. Shen Yifan about the cost of changing the copyright of the game, just talk to us directly.
“Anyway, you have to pay for this copyright fee, to Mr. Shen, and to us, it’s the same for your budget, isn’t it?”
“As for Mr. Shen, we will talk to him again. Don’t worry, our website will pay the author 20% of the cost of selling the copyright, and I believe that Mr. Shen will be very satisfied with the result.
“It’s just that we need to continue to discuss the price of this copyright fee. Since you want to adapt this novel, you should also know the value of this book. Ten million is indeed a bit low.
“Our offer here is 20 million. If you can accept it, we can help you solve all copyright disputes, and even take the initiative to help you promote it.
“It’s okay if it’s not acceptable, we can continue talking. 996.
