[Today’s Intelligence 02]:
You had contact with Gu Lina yesterday and obtained relevant information—
The novel "Eighteen-year-old Great-grandmother" currently serialized on a certain female-oriented site, has great potential for adaptation into a short drama!
Purchasing the copyright for adaptation could yield a ten-thousand-fold return!
...
In this piece of information, everything else was in standard black text, but the three words "Gu Lina" were in a dark gold color.
Clicked on the na "Gu Lina".
The system interface blinked, and in a flash, a three-dinsional image of Gu Lina appeared in the void in front of Jiang Tao.
It was as if she were standing right in front of Jiang Tao.
With a thought, a string of numbers appeared next to Gu Lina’s three-dinsional image, her phone number.
This feature of the system was quite impressive, Jiang Tao liked it a lot, it could save him a lot of trouble.
If it weren’t for the information provided by Brother Tongzi.
It wouldn’t have been easy for him to contact Gu Lina, with whom he had only a fleeting encounter and no contact information left.
When Jiang Tao read that book at midnight, he found it had been completed for more than a year, and there were no other books under her na.
Either she stopped writing, or she changed her pen na. Trying to contact her through ssages would be quite cumberso.
"138..."
Jiang Tao dialed out the number displayed and found it was a number from Shishi city in Ji Province.
"What a coincidence, she’s a fellow native?"
Seeing the number’s location, Jiang Tao was sowhat surprised.
Beep, beep, beep...
After dialing, the speaker emitted a beeping sound for about ten seconds before it connected.
"Hello, who is this?"
A sowhat familiar voice ca from the other side.
Having just t yesterday, Jiang Tao wouldn’t completely forget Gu Lina.
"Hello, is this Gu Lina?"
Jiang Tao didn’t mince words with Gu Lina, directly getting to the point.
"Ah, yes, it’s . And you are?"
Gu Lina was clearly puzzled by the unfamiliar number of Jiang Tao.
"We t at KFC yesterday. I’m Jiang An’an’s boss."
"Oh!! Brother, I rember you! So, the reason you called is..."
On the other end, Gu Lina clearly had a deep impression of Jiang Tao.
With his prompt, she imdiately matched the image and voice to him.
Jiang Tao was already quite handso, and recently, along with the tasks he was completing, his Charm Value was increasing rapidly.
With his Constitution improving, his physique was becoming more perfect.
Jiang Tao even felt his height had increased with his improved Constitution.
This wasn’t an illusion but a fact.
Previously 1.82 ters tall, Jiang Tao’s height had now shot up to 1.85 ters.
In his thirties, he grew another 3 centiters.
Mr. Jiang, Nanny Jiang, and Xu Li were all quite surprised.
Standing 1.85 ters tall, weighing 70 KG, with handso features.
At this mont, Jiang Tao had beco more handso and stylish than those so-called charming gentlen on the internet.
Additionally, with an increase in assets and expansion of his career, he exuded an unbelievable confidence and noble aura.
This unique aura was hard for ordinary people to imitate.
Even if they tried, they would only replicate the form but not capture the essence.
"Yesterday, when I was reading online, I accidentally ca across a novel you wrote..."
Jiang Tao briefly explained the situation to Gu Lina.
He also disclosed the fact that he owned an entertainnt company.
Finally, he expressed his interest in adapting her novel and wanted to inquire about the copyright.
About 40 kiloters away from Jiang Tao’s rental house.
In a rental house in Dongxindian Village with a similar layout and area to his.
Gu Lina, who had just been rejected by an editor again, was listening to the voice on the phone.
Her facial expressions shifted from delight to confusion and then to slight excitent.
Is the sun rising in the west today?
Soone actually wants to buy the copyright of my awful, long-forgotten novel, a book that didn’t even earn a full attendance reward during its serialization!
Holding the phone to her ear and pinching her thigh, Gu Lina felt an incredibly surreal sensation.
Usually, copyright developnt is reserved for those popular authors on writing sites, those who are ’little gods,’ ’big gods,’ or ’platinum’ authors.
A small fry like her, earning a one or two thousand yuan monthly stipend as a side hustle, has nothing to do with copyright developnt!
If she hadn’t t Jiang Tao in person and known he was a company boss,
And that her favorite actor was also an employee at Jiang Tao’s company,
She might have thought Jiang Tao was a con artist, suspecting this was a new type of scam.
Pretending the developnt was for copyright, tricking her into spending money on so so-called data operations.
Eventually, citing various reasons for being unable to successfully develop, leaving her helpless.
But hearing from Jiang Tao, she wouldn’t have to spend a penny, or even do much herself, just provide her editor’s number.
"Alright President Jiang, I’ll contact the editor imdiately."
"I’ll get back to you with a ssage or call soon."
"Mm, okay, thank you, goodbye."
After Jiang Tao hung up, Gu Lina held the phone tightly, excitedly pacing around her rental room five or six tis before her excitent sowhat subsided.
"Soone actually wants to buy the copyright to my novel!"
"Oh heavens, am I dreaming? This is not a dream, right?"
"If it is a dream, please let enjoy it a bit longer!"
"Gu Lina, you’re amazing, absolutely amazing! You actually have a day when you can sell the copyright!"
"This is so heartening! So heartening!"
Gu Lina was excited for quite a while, then opened the QQ App on her phone and found the editor who had just rejected her submission.
Just as Jiang Tao had guessed, Gu Lina had already changed her pen na several tis, trying many different thes and styles.
The novel she’s currently serializing is a male-targeted urban harem story.
The results were also trash, earning just two or three thousand yuan a month, struggling to make ends et.
"Dear editor, a boss just contacted , saying they wish to buy a short drama copyright for one of my books."
"Could you please give the phone number of the colleague responsible for these matters?"
After contemplating for quite so ti, Gu Lina sent two ssages to her editor, who replied promptly.
Honestly, when her editor saw her ssage, he was equally surprised, puzzled, and cautious.
As her editor, he naturally knew the true ability of Gu Lina.
Selling copyrights? Really?
That’s wishful thinking!
However, he didn’t want to dampen her enthusiasm, so he readily provided the phone number of the colleague in charge of short drama business.
After getting the number, Gu Lina thanked the editor multiple tis and then sent the number to Jiang Tao.
Afterwards, Gu Lina clasped her hands together and bowed several tis towards the window.
"Oh heavens, please bless that it sells, pleases make it successful!"
"Even if it only sells for two or three thousand, it would still be an unexpected windfall!"
"Please, I’m begging!~"
...
In a rental house in Xiaoshanhe Urban Village.
Seeing the number sent by Gu Lina, Jiang Tao dialed it directly.
The call connected, and the person who answered was a girl.
"Hello, I would like to purchase the exclusive film and television rights to a book..."
After the call connected, Jiang Tao discussed the film and television rights issue of "Eighteen-year-old Great-grandmother" for more than half an hour.
To prevent this drama from being remade by other companies once it gained popularity, Jiang Tao specifically requested to buy exclusives.
Purchasing film and television rights is not sothing that can be explained over a call with a few words.
The person responsible for liaison with Jiang Tao agreed to give him a specific response after 2 days.
She also needs to consult her colleagues in the departnt for a copyright valuation.
Jiang Tao remained calm and composed, showing no urgency, to avoid raising suspicion on the opposite side.
Two days were completely manageable for him to wait.
After wrapping up the conversation with the website’s copyright departnt, Jiang Tao took a nap in his rental room and only got up after 5 p.m.
