In the conference room of U.S. Wireless Broadcasting Television, CEO Thomas looked at his subordinates and spoke gravely, "Who contacted the Los Angeles Post?"
"It's me." A bald white man raised his hand and said helplessly, "But, I only asked them to subtly mention that 'Anomalies and Creatures' might be plagiarizing 'Galaxy Guide'."
"Who knew they'd go crazy and actually write 'Fu Manchu'."
"What was the reaction of that best-selling author?" Another executive looked at James and asked.
"He first expressed that he was very interested in collaborating with abc," James replied with a wry smile, rubbing his forehead.
"But when I brought up signing the authorization, he just kept expressing his dissatisfaction with the Los Angeles Post and 'Fu Manchu' in a casual conversation tone."
"What does he want as a result?" the executive continued to probe.
James looked at the other party and could only shrug helplessly.
All the executives seated began to think.
