Chapter 36 Starting from hoarding copyrights

Ye Xuan slowed down the car, glanced outside, gently turned the steering wheel, and drove the car into the community.

This community is obviously quite old. There is not even a street light inside, and the cement road is not very flat. But because it is close to Jiangdu University, there are often students in love who come here to rent houses. There are many hotel light boxes hanging above each building, and there are also many middle-aged women constantly soliciting business in the community.

As graduation was approaching, Du Yimeng moved out of the school dormitory half a month ago in order to have a quiet place to write her thesis. After participating in "The Voice of China", she rarely went back.

The aunties at the gate of the community saw a sports car slowly driving in, and immediately gathered together to discuss, "What kind of car is this? Have you seen it?"

"It's a sports car, right? My grandson said this kind of car costs millions..."

"People who drive this kind of car must be very rich, so why do they live in our neighborhood?"

"Who knows? Maybe he has a mistress. Let's not say anything, or someone might overhear us!"

Ye Xuan didn't take the comments of the aunties to heart. After turning off the car engine, he pushed open the door.

"I... I live in the building in front!" Du Yimeng held her bag, looked at Ye Xuan shyly, and lowered her head hurriedly.

She originally thought that Ye Xuan would drop her off at the roadside and then leave, but he drove the car into the residential area and got out of the car with her. Du Yimeng's face was filled with shyness, as she had already guessed what would happen next.

"I want to go up and sit down!" Ye Xuan came to Du Yimeng and put his arms around her waist.

Du Yimeng: "..."

How can you be so domineering!

She had unknowingly gotten used to Ye Xuan's domineering attitude. She blushed and nodded slightly, and the two of them walked into the stairwell.

Du Yimeng went up to the third floor in the dark, took out the key and opened the door of a room at the end of the corridor. After turning on the light, she did not dare to look at Ye Xuan, but bent down to help him take out his slippers.

…

…

the next day,

At around eight o'clock in the morning, Du Yimeng was awakened by the ringing of the phone. She opened her sleepy eyes and turned around to see Ye Xuan leaning against the head of the bed, yawning lazily.

"I'll go to the company later today!" Ye Xuan whispered after answering the phone. He threw the phone casually on the table and gently pinched Du Yimeng's face with his right hand.

"You have passed the blind audition of The Voice of China. You should be familiar with the instructor now, right?"

"Well, our mentor is Liu Huan, a well-known Chinese musician. He is also a visiting professor at the Yanjing Conservatory of Music. He has a top status in the singer world!" Leaning in Ye Xuan's arms, Du Yimeng blinked her charming big eyes and nodded slightly.

But she didn't know why Ye Xuan, such a busy man, suddenly asked about his mentor...

"Invite him out for dinner!"

"You...you are not trying to bribe my mentor, are you? I want to...prove myself through my own strength..."

Du Yimeng misunderstood Ye Xuan's meaning, bit her lip, and a hint of stubbornness flashed in her eyes.

"It's just a simple meal, and by the way, talk about cooperation with your mentor. Don't think too much, little girl!" Ye Xuan shook his head and smiled bitterly, pinched Du Yimeng's nose and said unhappily.

"Cooperation? You...you want to sponsor "The Voice of China"? Then you should contact the organizer!" Du Yimeng didn't understand what Ye Xuan was planning, and frowned slightly.

"You'll know tonight!" Ye Xuan didn't tell anyone his plan. He let go of Du Yimeng, who was like a little bird in his arms, and took the clothes next to him and put them on.

After a simple breakfast, Ye Xuan drove out of the community. After returning to the company, Ye Xuan called Ning Nanshi into his office.

"Chairman, are you looking for me?" Ning Nanshi, who was dressed in an office lady outfit, closed the door casually and walked to Ye Xuan with her long legs.

"I want to know if our company has made any investments in music, film and television copyrights!"

Having just inherited such a large group, Ye Xuan had been scheming with those shareholders for some time and was not very familiar with the company's business.

Fortunately, Ning Nanshi was prepared and knew the projects that Ye's Group had invested in in recent years in detail. After Ye Xuan finished speaking, Ning Nanshi thought for a moment and replied softly, "Our group has dabbled in film and television copyrights. As for the rest... the market piracy is too serious, and the group has not invested too much energy and money to expand this business!"

Ye Xuan was delighted, and the corners of his mouth slowly rose...

The real estate industry is going downhill, and the Ye Group will have to transform sooner or later. Copyright is a good choice.

"Pull out 300 million yuan of funds to start a new company and acquire the copyrights of movies, TV shows and music on the market. The more the better! If the funds are not enough, I will gradually add more, and there is no upper limit!"

In recent years, the Ye Group has invested in many commercial plazas across the country and built many large cinemas. It is one of the major cinema chains in the country. It is reasonable for it to acquire film and television copyrights, but what Ning Nanshi cannot understand is why Ye Xuan has set his sights on the "useless" market of music copyrights.

In this age of advanced Internet, piracy is rampant in the market and there is no such thing as paid music.

What is copyright for?

And even if you acquire the music copyright, if you find that it has been reprinted and pirated without permission, do you still have to sue each and every one of them?

There are many mature music platforms on the market. Ye Xuan wants to make money from copyright, but Ning Nanshi thinks it is almost impossible.
