After the divorce, I became a rich girl

Liu Yuan couldn't help but curl her lips slightly, her face full of disapproval. Finally, she stood up, walked quickly to Liu Yanghe's side, stretched out her hands and hugged Liu Yanghe's arms tightly, leaned her head gently on her father's shoulder, and said coquettishly, "Dad, you only know that Jiawei promised me today that she would not hold Deng Yong responsible, and only asked Deng Yong to apologize publicly. Other than that, she didn't ask for a penny in compensation. But, do you know how much I would have to pay if Jiawei really asked me to compensate?"

When Liu Yanghe heard this, he subconsciously turned his head and his eyes fell on Liu Yuan. He suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart and asked hurriedly, "How much compensation do I have to pay?"

Liu Yuan sighed softly, with a helpless look on her face, and said slowly: "I consulted a lawyer, and the minimum is 15 million!"

"It actually costs so much money?" Liu Yanghe was really surprised. He knew that Deng Yong's behavior had caused losses to Universal Pictures, but he never expected that the amount of loss would be so huge!

He originally estimated that it would be only about five or six million, so when Li Jiawei made it clear today that she would not allow Liu Yuan to make compensation, he did not stop her.

He thought at the time that even if he did not give the film and television adaptation rights of "My Youth" to Universal Pictures, with his status and connections in the literary world, he could still recommend them some other good scripts.

After all, he has a high status in the literary world and has a lot of resources at his disposal. No matter what, he feels that he will not let Li Jiawei suffer any loss in this matter.

But who could have thought that today Li Jiawei would directly waive the tens of millions of financial compensation for her daughter, which was really beyond his expectations.

Liu Yanghe looked at Liu Yuan helplessly, and said with a bit of annoyance in his tone: "Such a large sum of money, why didn't you tell me earlier? Even if your mother and I pool our money together, we can still find a way to get it together for you. Why do you have to owe others such a big favor?"

Liu Yuan was also helpless, and hurriedly explained: "How could I know that Mr. Li from Universal Pictures was so easy to talk to? I originally thought that this matter could not be solved so easily.

I had already made plans. At worst, I could just pay them in installments. Who knew Jiawei would be so straightforward and waive the compensation for me? This will save me tens of millions of dollars in losses. How can I not be tempted?"

Liu Yanghe looked at his daughter speechlessly, opened his mouth, and for a moment he really didn't know where to start. After thinking for a while, he couldn't help but said, "Tell me, since you were a child, when have your mother and I ever let you suffer any injustice in spending? Why are you so short-sighted now that you have encountered something?"

Liu Yuan knew that she had done something wrong, so when faced with her father's reproach, she just lowered her head silently, without saying a word or making any rebuttal. After a while, she muttered softly, "Anyway, things have come to this point. Even if you say something now, it won't change anything."

Liu Yanghe felt a pang of pain in his heart when he saw his daughter's desperate look. He slowly leaned back in his chair, his face full of fatigue. He sighed heavily and said weakly, "Go back to your room. I want to be alone and rest for a while."

Liu Yuan stood up hesitantly, with a bit of worry in her eyes. Looking at her father who had closed his eyes as if he was resting, she said softly, "Dad, think about it carefully." After that, she turned around and slowly walked towards her room.

Liu Yanghe waved his hand lightly, exhausted, and didn't want to say anything more. Yes, now that things have come to this, what else can he say? In front of the Li brothers and sisters today, he felt that he had lost all his face and was in a completely passive and embarrassing situation.

As for Li Jiawei, she originally thought that she would have to wait for a long time to get a reply from Liu Yanghe, but she never expected that she would receive a call from Liu Yanghe just on the third day after the meal.

Liu Yanghe's voice was steady and clear on the other end of the phone: "I agree to grant the film and television adaptation rights of the novel "My Youth" to Universal Pictures, but I have a condition. I want to be one of the editors in the adaptation team. In the subsequent adaptation process, if there are plots that I think cannot be changed, or the changes are unreasonable, my opinion must prevail."

Facing Liu Yanghe's request, Li Jiawei did not hesitate and responded immediately: "Uncle Liu, I agree to all the conditions you proposed. It is my honor to have you participate in the adaptation."

Liu Yanghe sighed softly on the other end of the phone, and then said, "Okay, in that case, you can arrange for someone to come to me to sign the contract."

On the phone, Liu Yanghe did not mention anything about money, such as remuneration. He knew that even if he did not speak up to discuss these issues of interest, based on Li Jiawei's personality and work style, she would definitely not treat him unfairly in this regard.

After hanging up the phone, Li Jiawei excitedly stood up from her office chair, her face filled with uncontrollable joy. Like a child, she jumped several times on the spot. After a long time, she gradually calmed down her excitement.

Then, she quickly notified the heads of the legal department, financial department and other relevant departments, and asked them to come to the president's office to see her immediately.

After all, since we have already agreed on the cooperation with Liu Yanghe, it is natural to sign the contract sooner rather than later. The sooner it is implemented, we will not be afraid of any unexpected changes and will feel at ease.

For things like this, people are always afraid that the news will leak out. If the outside world hears something, there is no guarantee that there will be complications and unexpected changes in the end.

Li Jiawei knew very well that in the industry, many companies were eyeing the copyright of "My Youth" and naturally did not want Universal Pictures to successfully acquire it.

Fortunately, the negotiations between Universal Pictures and Liu Yanghe went exceptionally smoothly. Both sides maintained a relatively reasonable attitude and did not make any overly harsh demands. Even on the issue of copyright fees, which has always been controversial, both sides were able to reach an agreement calmly without any disputes.

Because of this, it took less than a month from the start of negotiations to the final signing of the contract, and everything went quite smoothly. The film and television adaptation rights of the novel "My Youth" officially belonged to Universal Pictures.
