Ultraman: This Belial only wants to make money.

Chapter 100 The Behind-the-Scenes Victor

"Mr. Mavis, you may use all of Ultraman Tiga's images on all Blue Dream Company's products, completely free of charge, and the license is permanent!"

Another uproar ensued.

Following Director Sawai's important speech, Boss Kim seized the opportunity to drop another bombshell on the noisy venue.

No one expected that the Ultraman Tiga IP, which was firmly held in Jin Laoban's hands, would give up its precious first time on Jiuliangliang Island.

Jin Yi's voice slammed onto the conference table like a heavy hammer. The entire room fell silent for a moment, then erupted into an even bigger commotion—this gift was even more impressive than Director Sawai's olive branch.

If the cooperation agreement presented by Director Zejing was a promise of a bright future, and that Blue Dream Company would surely be on a smooth road ahead, then Boss Jin's gift was like adding a whole tank of oil to the Blue Dream train.

Many people attended Mr. Kim's first speech. At that time, they underestimated the value of the Tiga IP. But no one expected that Mr. Kim would operate the Tiga IP to such an extent that the toy sales revenue alone made TPC's operation smoother.

In today's business world, the Ultraman Tiga IP is a unique cash cow. Business giants understand that whoever gets the license for Ultraman Tiga first is like Yege's first follower. However, Boss Kim seems to have guessed their intentions, holding the Tiga IP tightly in his hands. Even as subsequent offers skyrocketed, and Secretary Gondo prepared countless financial reports, filling an entire trash can, Boss Kim still had no intention of selling.

However, this time—the first authorization of the Ultraman Tiga IP has already been granted.

When Mavis accepted the authorization letter, his fingers trembled slightly. This tremor was just right, showing both flattered humility and the composure of an entrepreneur.

The gazes directed at Mavis were a mixture of envy and jealousy, but regardless of their intentions, everyone understood that the rise of Blue Dream Company was an unstoppable trend.

Jin Yi and Director Ze Jing exchanged a knowing glance, then stepped out of their seats, reached out, and tightly joined hands with Mavis's.

Director Sawai smiled happily, genuinely pleased to have gained a like-minded partner.

Jin Yi and Mavis exchanged glances, and both revealed meaningful smiles.

A thunderous round of applause erupted, and three hands clasped tightly under the flashing lights. Reporters' camera shutters clicked like a torrential downpour, capturing this historic moment. This happy ending was probably what everyone wanted to see.

"Hahaha!"

A salute to our great actors!

500 meters underground on Jiuliangliang Island, undisguised, unrestrained laughter echoed.

Zack slammed one hand on the table, raised the glass on the table with the other, and downed the swirling liquor in one gulp.

Opposite him sat Mavis, her expression calm. Boss Jin, seated at the head of the square table, looked at his two loyal subordinates with a smile on his face.

If the daytime attendees had witnessed this scene, they would have been astonished. Mavis and Zach, who seemed to have no connection whatsoever, were drinking together around the square table like old friends.

"Haha—Mavis, I really didn't expect you to be such a good actor!"

Zack suppressed a laugh.

"Mother—Gakuma—how many mothers do you have? Mavis, don't you laugh when you're reciting your lines?"

Zack finally couldn't hold back any longer. Thinking of Mavis's funny remarks and the real situation of the Gakuma, his laughter echoed once again in the underground space.

The laughter even penetrated the thick soil, startling the Gakumas in the breeding center. The cloned Gakumas had been moved deeper underground, where autonomous robots sprayed special hormones that could eliminate female scents. The male Gakumas were injected with super-dose synthetic proteins and estrus hormones, quietly waiting for their original mates to arrive, tears of excitement or sadness streaming down their faces.

Lanmeng Company never shortchanges any of its top employees.

"There's nothing funny, Zack. If farmers consider the soil their mother, then why can't we call Gakuma, who brought me so much money, our mother too?"

Mavis responded quite calmly, not taking Zach's taunts to heart at all. This "whoever feeds me is my mother" and "I'm not afraid of boiling water" attitude left Zach feeling embarrassed.

"But—Boss, let's drink to the success of the plan!"

Mavis raised her glass, gesturing towards Jin Yi.

"Um."

The crisp sound of glasses clinking announced the successful conclusion of the plan.

Everything went according to plan without any setbacks.

The problem that had been troubling Lanmeng Company has now been resolved.

The secret of Blue Dream Company, relying on the petrifying monster Gakuma's ability to dispose of waste, is ultimately a shady trick.

Although it was a risk-free and highly profitable business, the existence of Gakuma could not be exposed, which tightly bound the Blue Dream Company to the narrow Jiuliangliang Island.

Even if cloning technology expands the number of Gakuma, as the company expands and the number of people to be brainwashed increases, it becomes easier for loopholes to be discovered, and the difficulty of hiding Gakuma also increases.

However—with Zach, an alien friend, and Zach and Jin Yi guaranteeing the interests of "Earthling" Mavis, the advanced alien and cloning technologies of Blue Dream Company were explained: it was all a transaction, all the support from friendly aliens.

Where did you get these cutting-edge technologies?

A friend gave it to me!

This is similar to the money laundering methods of the Mafia in later generations, except that this time the thing to be laundered is alien technology with no known origin, instead of money that can be made in the dark.

With the help of these whitewashing technologies, Blue Dream Company will bid farewell to darkness and embark on a bright and glorious road.

With Jin Yi's opportunistic approach, the licensing of Tiga was essentially a transfer from one hand to the other, resulting in no loss for Jin Yi. Coupled with the profits of Lanmeng Company, newcomers will likely scramble for Tiga's second licensing rights.

The combination of alien technology and the Tiga IP allowed Blue Dream, a newcomer with limited resources, to firmly grasp the identity of "TPC Partner." Otherwise, even with the favor of Director Sawai, newcomers would still have squeezed Blue Dream out of its leading position.

To control the TPC, one force is not enough; the TPC was established with inherent impartiality and cannot be biased in any direction.

Just like the two ruling parties in the United States, the Democratic Party and the Republican Party, both hands determine the direction of the country, and neither party can dominate.

But—if both hands belong to the same person, then which direction to move forward still depends on the will of the controller.

Jin Yi gently swirled the wine in his glass, the amber liquid reflecting in his deep pupils.

Toei Company controls the lifeline of the virtual economy, while Blue Dream Company holds the throat of the real industry. With these two forces working together, they have strangled TPC. And this prey has become Boss Jin's prey without even realizing it.

Like the two strings that control a puppet, they are now firmly in his grasp. The giant ship TPC may still appear to be sailing autonomously, but in reality, its rudder has long since changed hands.

Jin Yi silently apologized to Director Sawai, this friendly and kind old man. Director Sawai was still repenting for his unfounded suspicion of Jin Yi, unaware that his suspicions were not at all wrong. Jin Yi did indeed come with the goal of controlling TPC, and had already succeeded.

But don't worry, Director. TPC may change under Uncle Jin's management, but it will never go bankrupt!

"Hahaha! Let's have a good drink!"

Accompanied by the sinister laughs of those who had succeeded in their schemes, the clinking of glasses was so pleasant that the three men downed their strong liquor in one gulp.

Half-drunk and half-awake, Jin Yi yawned.

"The TPC problem has been resolved; it's time to deal with those two arrogant cosmic bastards. Next up are you two, Belial and Reiblood!"
