Chapter 736: Wanted
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
Mary took a deep breath and calmed herself down. She began updating her status. [I’m the one that wrote the lyrics for this song. Thank you Marvel for your appreciation. If you want the copyrights, I can offer you a 20% discount.]
“F*ck! Are you crazy? If you offer a twenty percent discount, we’ll be getting twenty million less!” Dani’s expression changed immediately as he felt the money flying away right before his eyes.
“You’re too reckless with that money! I can’t even earn twenty million in my entire lifetime!” George felt his heart twist in pain.
They had already thought of the 100 million as their own.
“What do you know? If this song is really written by me, do you think I’ll even give a discount?” Mary huffed, then continued, “We now need the power of public opinion. We need their support! Even if you take out the twenty million, we’ll still have eighty million! It’s eighty million of free money!”
Dani and George seemed to have understood and stopped hounding the point, but a look of yearning remained in their eyes.
Meanwhile, Mary’s post was immediately shared all over the internet.
[Mary is so generous to give off a 20% discount just like that.]
[Wow, as expected of our countrymen, letting go 20 million just like that. Such great character.]
[This song is really suitable for Marvel. There’s even Ironman and Spiderman in it.]
[Support Mary. This song is written by her to begin with!]
[Singer Y, go back to where you came from! That 100 million should never be given to the likes of Singer Y!]
[We can’t let the Chinese take our money! The copyright should belong to Mary! Like if you agree with me.]
The internet immediately boiled over. Mary curled her lips slightly and asked, “What do you think?”
“Amazing! Now the whole country is supporting you,” George said in astonishment.
“It’s ours. It’s definitely ours. With eighty million, we can each get over twenty million!” Dani’s eyes glowed brightly.
…
In recent times, China’s Weibo would always be bustling with activity. However, that day was the most active of all. News regarding Singer Y had taken over the top 10 trending searches.
At that moment, Weibo almost crashed because of the sudden influx of users reaching its peak capacity.
[Marvel! That’s Marvel! They’re actually offering 100 million for Singer Y’s copyrights!]
[Incredible. It’s unbelievable!]
[F*ck! Singer Y is a god. Since when earning money became that easy?]
[Our song from China is actually recognized by Marvel. That’s just unimaginable!]
[Previous post, Singer Y’s song is incredible. It’s Marvel’s fortune if he sold it to them!]
[The foreigners are just shameless to the max. There’s nothing good coming from them, especially this time. It’s so disgusting!]
[Who the heck is that Mary? She’s coming out of nowhere to steal the money?]
[That’s just trying to scam Singer Y’s money! They’re just looking down on us Chinese. F*ck!]
…
The matter worsened as time passed. Various media platforms were jumping in on the reporting. For some time, Weibo, Jinri Toutiao, and Tieba were all filled with the same discussions.
It was inevitable that the Chinese people and foreigners began a verbal battle once again.
Ye Lingchen nonchalantly read his book while Dong Miaomiao beside him was being distracted. It was especially so when she saw Marvel offer the massive copyrights fee. It caught her completely off guard and she could no longer maintain her composure.
‘Self studying Chinese Alternative Medicine, Chinese Medicine proficiency +1.’
‘Self studying Chinese Alternative Medicine, Chinese Medicine proficiency +1.’
‘Self studying Chinese Alternative Medicine, Chinese Medicine proficiency +1.’
…
It was only when the proficiency got stuck at 97% that Ye Lingchen put down Chinese Alternative Medicine. He then took another book titled Rare Diseases and started reading.
“Chairman Ye, Marvel offered a hundred million,” Dong Miaomiao could not help but interrupt.
Ye Lingchen’s eyebrows twitched and asked in surprise, “A hundred million?”
“Yeah, one hundred million! If you continue to ignore them, then that money will go to someone else. Now that we’re developing Miracle Island, there are lots of things that could use the money.” Dong Miaomiao quickly showed Ye Lingchen the announcement Marvel made.
Ye Lingchen laughed. “It seems someone will be acting on my behalf very soon.”
At the same time, a system notification sound went off as his Chinese Medicine skill painstakingly reached 100%!
Dong Miaomiao asked, “Who’ll be taking action? Marvel?”
Putting down the medical book in his hand, he said, “The song I sang was not just a mere song. You can take it as a Warrior’s or a hero’s song. When I released it, the Warrior’s Department should’ve noticed it.”
“What’s that got to do with us?”
“Why are you so dumb?” Ye Lingchen sighed helplessly. “You should know the existence of Hell’s Gate. At times like this, this song carries a different meaning. They won’t sit by and let this song be humiliated. Moreover, the Warrior’s Department is definitely on my side.
“Marvel must’ve understood the meaning behind this song in order for them to willingly offer such a high price.”
Marvel was an international giant and had long focused on filming all sorts of movies in the heroic genre. It was obvious that they were in the know. They most likely had been working hard on researching to bring to life the supernatural powers in the Marvel universe.
“Is that for real?”
Dong Miaomiao was skeptical, but her eyes popped wide open when she looked once more at her phone. She was completely stunned.
Within that short time frame, a clear notice, or more accurately, a wanted notice appeared before everyone!
[We have solid evidence that Dani, George, and Mary had violated Singer Y’s copyrights and defamed his reputation by slandering Singer Y and plagiarizing his works. These people are now officially wanted!]
The formal wording, blue background, and the red emblem brought a sense of dead into the readers’ hearts.
It was too sudden!
Who would have thought that the three proud people would turn into a wanted criminal in the very next instant?
The change was just too sudden and came without any forewarning. It dumbfounded the foreigners, putting them at a complete loss.
Under normal circumstances, this type of matter should not require such an announcement. Moreover, they were still in the middle of the argument and had yet to file a lawsuit. There was no legal process before the criminal charge was set.
‘Could it be that this is a high profile matter that even the official departments are constantly keeping tabs of it?’
It was to an extent that most people thought that it was a fake announcement as it seemed illogical.
Dani, George, and Mary’s smile were still on their face. It was not because of them being happy. Instead, it was because they were too paralyzed to move. Parts of their faces were still spasming and twitching.
They were feeling smug just a moment ago, yet the very next instant the killer news appeared before them.
Their minds were completely blown. Those simple brains of theirs had insufficient processing power to cope with such a sudden and drastic change. They felt their limbs go cold and almost peed their pants…
