I can be resurrected in the ninja world

"Franchise? Membership system?" Sarutobi Hiruzen glanced at the equally confused advisory group. This group of senior citizens who were born in the Warring States Period really don’t know what this means?

"We can transfer the rights to sell newspapers to the daimyo!"

"Are you talking about not selling newspapers, but instead selling the right to sell newspapers? Will anyone buy such a futile thing?"

In Ninja World, people don't have the concept of selling IP. They don't even know what an IP is.

"How come no one buys it? Is there anyone in this world who can write a second book, Fighting the Sky? As long as our newspaper has its own exclusive column, readers will recognize this newspaper and the Konoha brand. This is Brand copyright, and this sales right can be converted into real money. Only the big names who give us money have the right to print the latest version of Dou Po. What we sell is not a newspaper, but the qualification to print a newspaper!"

"This?? Is this possible?" Everyone was confused after being deceived by Li Gou. An enlightened old man like Sarutobi Hiruzen could still keep up with Li Gou's thinking. A rough guy like Danzo who can only say "I am the darkness of Konoha, and I alone am the foundation of Konoha" can only feel that Li Gou's words are unclear and serious.

"How much can the right to sell be sold for?" Danzo asked the question he was most concerned about.

How much can you earn?

"There are many models for selling rights. You can sell the right to print newspapers for two years at a time, or it can be calculated based on the share of net profits earned by franchisees. In short, how many people in the Fire Country have the same purchasing power as Konoha? Towns, we can all collect some money from it.”

After everyone listened to Li Gou's analysis, they all took a deep breath. The advisory group and Sarutobi even stood up with envy and started a heated debate with a group of old men and women. The entire Hokage's office looks like a vegetable market.

After a while, everyone finally became quiet. Sarutobi Hiruzen asked Li Gou: "What if someone doesn't buy our right to sell printing and prints secretly? You know that after leaving Konoha, our control will be much smaller. Not everyone is afraid Konoha."

Sarutobi's worries are not unreasonable. The five great ninja villages are watching Konoha make money and will not care whether you pirate or not. They will directly print and sell them privately. What can you do?

"I have already considered the piracy issue you mentioned. Why is it published daily? Isn't this to prevent piracy? As long as the original manuscript I wrote is not lost, there will definitely be a delay in other ninja villages piracy of our newspaper, right?"

"But delay is not enough. There will always be people who buy pirated copies that are cheaper even though they are a few days late." Sarutobi Hiruzen, the only old man in the room who could follow Li Gou's train of thought, raised his doubts.

"Do you know why we have a franchisee system? It's because of the piracy problem. We can give the famous franchisees who have paid membership fees more pre-saved manuscripts and stipulate the number of words they print every day. Once the piracy problem occurs, these are the first ones to lose profits. The daimyo who paid their dues and obtained the deposited manuscripts. But once other ninja villages secretly print newspapers and harm the interests of the daimyo, what do you think will happen?"

"How is it?" Danzo asked.

"The daimyo will definitely not issue tasks to these ninja villages that are a source of wealth for them. If you dare to issue tasks to these ninja villages, we will take back the right to sell newspapers." Li Gou said this and slammed the table hard.

The noise was not loud, but it made the people in Konoha's senior group deafen their ears. No one thought that the development of the enemy's Ninja Village could be suppressed through a small newspaper.

This is comparable to a ninja war. The weight of Li Gou's famous writer is almost equivalent to the intimidating power of a tailed beast!

Sarutobi Hiruzen even suspected that in the future, Ninja Village would even launch a real armed war over the sale of newspapers. His concerns are not unreasonable. Which war on earth was not caused by uneven distribution of benefits?

"It's more than that." Li Gou said again.

"What? There's more?" Everyone was already frightened by the Konoha Evening News.

"We can remake the stories in it into movies and comics for sale. There are simply too many benefits. After the movie becomes a hit, it will definitely boost the sales of newspapers. It can also drive Konoha's mission commissions and influence due to the publicity in major theaters. Even This method of making movies can provide support for Konoha's retired ninja.
