Chapter 654: Sky-High Price Copyright! Top Three Hits on Trending!

Sheng Ting’s voice was heard from the other end. “Gu Mang, are you free to talk?”

Gu Mang sounded calm. “Yeah.”

Sheng Ting said, “Your piano piece is currently trending and the medical school’s performance at Welcome Night has gone viral on various major short video platforms.”

Gu Mang didn’t care much about this. “Is that so?”

“Yeah!” Sheng Ting was more excited than Gu Mang, the center of the attention. “Someone uploaded it an hour ago and it became popular on video platforms. Now it is the number one on Weibo’s trending page, big boss! Why didn’t you tell me that you could arrange music and play the piano?!”

“Why would I tell you,” Gu Mang answered lazily.

Sheng Ting was speechless.

He suddenly recalled that big boss also knew how to play the drums. Was she talented at everything?

Gu Mang’s cold voice snapped Sheng Ting out of his trance. “If there’s nothing much, I’m hanging up.”

“Hey, big boss. Hold on,” Sheng Ting said hurriedly. “There’s something else.”

Gu Mang did not say anything. She pushed the bedroom door open and entered.

Sheng Ting looked at the screen anxiously and saw that she had not hung up yet. Then, he cooled down and said, “My company wants to buy the rights to your piano piece and lyrics. They can’t contact you so they came to me.”

Gu Mang raised her eyebrows. “How much?”

Sheng Ting answered, “Full copyright. 100 million, negotiable.” ”

That was quite a sincere amount.

“Send the contract to me. I’ll send it back to you after signing it.” Gu Mang walked to the changing room, opened the wardrobe, and took out pieces of clothing from the rack to change into.

“How could I trouble you?” On the other end, Sheng Ting made an OK sign to the company’s leader. “The manager of the copyright department said that he would send the contract to you personally.”

All the members of the Legal Department had been dispatched to rush out the contract.

Gu Mang sounded calm. “Sure, tomorrow 6pm at Capital University.”

“No problem,” Sheng Ting answeed. “See you tomorrow.”

…

Gu Mang’s piano piece becoming popular had attracted the attention of major music companies but the only person who could reach Gu Mang was Sheng Ting.

Donghuang Entertainment was full of sincerity and they did not need Gu Mang to say a word. They directly offered a sky-high copyright fee of 100 million yuan. Other companies immediately backed down upon seeing the price Donghuang was offering.

Donghuang Entertainment took advantage of this wave of enthusiasm to advertise their own company. The 100 million copyright fee reached the trending page as well, the huge sum breaking the record for most amount ever offered by a company to buy the rights to a song.

Discussions on Weibo were in full swing.

When He Yidu and Qin Fang received the news, they were taken aback even though they were used to Gu Mang throwing surprises at them from time to time.

The X Voice Factory WeChat group chat was spammed with a sticker which said “Long Live, Big Boss!”

Jiang Shenyuan and Yu Mufeng sent stickers showing emojis kneeling down to Gu Mang in their WeChat group to express their awe and respect.

…

On the other side.

Master Bi sent Gu Yin to the door of Xia’s house. Gu Yin thanked Master Bi and watched the limousine car leave. Once the rear lights of the car started moveing further and further away, she sighed in relief.

She stood there for a few seconds with her eyes down. After a while she turned and walked into the villa, her face a bit cold.

As long as she arrived on Jijing Island she would have a way to convince the people on Jijing Island that she had composed the song. Master Bi would take her to Jijing Island the next morning. Thinking of this, Gu Yin smiled.

When a servant of the Xia family saw that Gu Yin had returned, he approached with a respectful attitude. “Ms. Gu, Master and Uncle would like you to make your way to the study.”

Gu Yin knew that since she was going to Jijing Island tomorrow, Old Master Xia and Lei Xiao must have something to tell her.

“Got it.” She walked towards the study.

When she reached the study, Old Master Xia looked at her and pointed at the sofa across from him with his walking stick. “Yinyin, you’re here. Have a seat.”

Gu Yin responded obediently.

There was a bank card on the coffee table and Old Master Xia pushed it towards Gu Yin. “There are a lot of places to spend money on Jijing Island. This is for you.”

Gu Yin did not take it immediately, but she did not reject it.

Old Master Xia looked at her and said in a deep voice, “Do you know the Shen family?”

Gu Yin nodded. “I do.”

She had figured out the political situation in the capital after having lived there for two weeks.

Shen Qianzi belonged to the Shen family. They were an aristocratic family whose position is just behind the Lu family. They were renowned and had a strong background.

Old Master Xia continued, “The Shen family has developed so well over the years and this is because of the support that they get from Jijing Island. Since you have the chance to head to Jijing Island, you must seize the opportunity.”

Gu Yin wanted to climb higher while Old Master Xia wanted the Xia family to hold onto their place in the capital.

They were pinning the family’s future on this apprenticeship.

Gu Yin said softly, “Don’t worry, Grandpa Xia, I know what I have to do.”

Old Master Xia nodded.

…

At the same time.

Master Bi told An An about them returning to Jijing Island and he had asked her if she wanted to tag along.

Suddenly, the assistant’s phone rang. The person on the other end said something and the assistant’s expression changed.

After the assistant hung up, he looked at Master Bi. “Donghuang Entertainment wants to buy the rights for Ms. Gu Yin’s song. Apparently Donghuang has reached an oral agreement with Gu Mang over the phone and they’re offering to pay her 100 million.”

As the assistant spoke, he clicked into Weibo.

An An was furious. “How shameless is she?! Does she really think that composition is hers? How dare she sell the rights to something she doesn’t own!”

The assistant looked at the hashtag on the Weibo trending page. The top three hits on trending were about the piano piece and the sky-high price of the copyright. It was a very hot topic.
