Han Ni had no idea that a guest had come to his house, and that it was Bai Mengyan, whose smile was the funniest.

Of course, even if he knew, he wouldn't have the time or energy to receive them; he was too busy.

Expanding a studio's scale and scope isn't simply a matter of signing more artists. It also requires abundant resources, a strong network of contacts, substantial funding, and a solid backer.

Of course, because of the unexpected recognition of a god-sister, Han Ni has gained a certain network and backing in the entertainment industry.

Artists can also try to find some promising talents to sign, but what about resources?

Han Ni's first thought was copyright, that's right, the copyright of various excellent online novels.

Although it's been 14 years and the era of internet traffic has arrived, the copyright prices for online novels haven't officially started to skyrocket.

If you're lucky, you can snag the full rights to a good novel for a few hundred thousand or even a million. You might even get it permanently.

Based on his memories from his previous life and some information he collected online, Han Ni recorded all the copyrights of the novels that interested him.

These include "A Love So Beautiful", "The Best of Us", "Innocent Wife", "Take My Brother Away", and "Bad Kids".

Unfortunately, although Han Ni was a reborn person, he was already a little too late to make his move.

His most valued IPs, such as "Wu Xin: The Monster Killer", "Go Princess Go", "Yu Zui", and "A Love So Beautiful", have all been acquired.

It has even been officially adapted into a film or television series.

This made Han Ni extremely distressed, feeling as if he had lost billions.

However, life is full of disappointments, and there's nothing he can do about it.

We can only keep our eyes peeled and strike first.

As for the future hit drama "Joy of Life", the copyright currently belongs to Hunan TV, but it has not been developed yet.

Han Ni wanted to try his luck and see if he could buy the copyright from the other party.

Just as Han Ni was engrossed in his work, Li Yitong walked in with her hands behind her back.

She walked up behind Han Ni, bent down, and lay on his back. Then, she gently kissed his cheek.

"So you're in such a good mood, you want it?" Han Ni asked with a smile as he reached for the cigarette.

"Don't say that to me, it makes me feel so shameless." Li Yitong denied, "Sister Dou Dou and Sister Meng are back, we can't do anything reckless from now on, we have to keep it a secret."

"Who's messing around here?" Han Ni said, feeling wronged. "If I weren't so strong, you would have drained me dry long ago."

"Hmph, I'm going to drain you dry." Li Yitong said smugly, "What are you busy with? Don't you even go down and check on Sister Dou Dou and Sister Meng?"

"After reading too many online novels, I want to buy the copyrights of some and stock up on them," Han Ni replied. "Now, major film and television production companies and video websites are starting to pay attention to the adaptation of online novels."

The copyright of online novels will become increasingly sought after, and prices will continue to rise.

It's always good to strike first and stock up.

If I have the ability to develop it myself in the future, that would be best.

If you don't have the capability to develop it, you can always buy the copyright. In short, there's always a profit to be made.

"Really?" Li Yitong was surprised.

She also enjoys reading online novels, but has never considered copyright or adaptation issues.

"You can doubt anyone, but you can't doubt your own man." Han Ni stood up and pinched Li Yitong's cheek: "Let's go find Sister Dou Dou."

Opportunity knocks but once. We must seize the moment and take the lead.

Otherwise, they simply cannot compete with other large companies.

"Of course I believe you. You're the one I trust most in this life." Li Yitong wrapped her arms around Han Ni's waist like cat paws, following closely behind him.

The two didn't separate until they reached the stairs, and then walked downstairs together.

"Sister Dou Dou, you're back." Han Ni arrived at the studio and greeted Yang Hongdou, "Thank you for your hard work this time."

"You know how hard I work, how difficult it is for me. I wouldn't have made this trip if it weren't for you," Yang Hongdou said with a smile, clearly happy.

"Han Ni, I'm back too!" Sister Meng called out. "Quickly, say hello to me."

Han Ni seemed not to have heard what Sister Meng said, and looked at Bai Mengyan sitting next to her with a surprised expression.

The Bai Mengyan in front of me is still very young, somewhat different from how she was after she became famous. However, her radiant expression and captivating smile remain unchanged.

"Hello, my name is Bai Mengyan." Bai Mengyan stood up, smiling as she introduced herself.

"Han Ni." Han Ni nodded, feeling that the other person was even more recognizable than Li Yitong.

"Han Ni, why are you ignoring me?" Sister Meng was angry, glaring at Han Ni with her big eyes, almost standing up.

She has a very impatient temper. If others ignore her or react a little slowly, she will misunderstand and become unhappy.

The problem is that many people don't not want to talk to her, but they are pondering her words and considering how to respond.

As a result, it seemed like we were a step behind.

However, Han Ni had met Sister Meng before and was quite familiar with her personality and habits.

It's good that you're angry. Go ahead and show me what anger is. Dare to glare at me? I'll get you sooner or later.

"Sister Dou Dou, are you free?" Han Ni asked. "I have something to talk to you about."

"Go ahead," Yang Hongdou asked.

Han Ni directly explained his plan to buy the copyright of an online novel to the other party.

"You're actually so optimistic about adapting online novels?" Yang Hongdou was somewhat surprised: "Indeed, quite a few film and television companies and video websites are starting to notice this."

However, most are observing and few are taking action. Furthermore, there are few successful examples.

"The copyrights for online novels are still relatively cheap right now, so let's stock up on some." Han Ni smiled and said, "I've mainly been reading too many online novels."

Therefore, I'm somewhat sensitive about this kind of thing. Even if I don't make a profit, there's no reason for me to lose money either.

"So how much are you planning to invest?" Yang Hongdou asked.

"Around ten million." Han Ni thought for a moment before answering, "I've already selected a number of online novels, and if nothing unexpected happens, this amount of money should be enough to acquire their copyrights."

Of course, if you don't have enough money, you can also talk to Sister Xing about it.

The TV series "My Sunshine," currently being filmed by Juku, a subsidiary of Dahua Technology, is adapted from an online novel.

She should be aware of this situation and would likely be very interested in your suggestion.

"In that case, the RV you wanted is gone." Yang Hongdou laughed, agreeing with Han Ni's suggestion.

"If it's gone, it's gone. Anyway, there will be better ones in the future." Han Ni didn't care.

"You're quite confident. Fine, send me the names of the online novels you've chosen, and I'll talk to a copyright agency."

If we have enough money, we'll take it all ourselves.

"If that's not enough, I'll go talk to Sister Xing again." Yang Hongdou nodded: "This is the largest investment since the establishment of Hongdou Studio. I hope it will be very profitable in the future."

"That's for sure." Han Ni nodded, then asked curiously, "Sister Dou Dou, what's going on with Bai Mengyan?"

"It's a new friend of Sister Meng's. She happened to have no guys to film, so she came with us to Hengdian for a few days," Yang Hongdou replied. "This girl looks a bit like Tongtong, did you notice?"
