Chapter 1088: Leather Bag Company
There is such a story.
In the gold rush in the western United States, countless young and strong people who wanted to make a fortune ran to the mountains in the western United States to hunt for gold, hoping to make a fortune in one fell swoop. Unfortunately, after arriving in the west, I found that there were more people trying gold than gold in this broken place. The ones who made a fortune in the end were not those gold diggers, but those who sold gold diggers to these gold diggers.
For example, the famous Levi Strauss took advantage of the gold rush to come to San Francisco, USA. After he found that gold rushing was unreliable, he changed his approach. He found that gold rushing requires a lot of physical labor, and the gold rusher's pants would easily break after not long. So he made a batch of unsold canvas into hundreds of pairs of pants and took them to the gold rushing site for sale. Because the canvas materials are strong and wear-resistant, they became very popular.
Later, he gave up canvas and switched to a blue twill fabric, and used copper nails to reinforce the seam. Compared with the same strong and wear-resistant canvas, this material pants took into account both beauty and practicality, and soon became popular in the United States, and then became popular all over the world...
This kind of pants is jeans.
The gold rush in the western United States has long dissipated, and there are not many rich people in the descendants of gold diggers, but Levi Strauss' jeans are still popular all over the world. The jean brand he created, "Levies", ranked 111th in the top 500 brands in 2018, becoming a veritable rich man.
"The copyright war in animation is undoubtedly inevitable now. Whether it is the party who purchases the copyright or the party who wants to sell the copyright, the intention is already quite obvious. It is basically impossible to continue to pick up cheap at this time."
Miss Uehara had a little unrestrained and confident laughter.
"Since that's the case, why don't we push it?"
Uehara Tomotoshi said, "Tell me specifically."
"I set up a new company in the past few days when I was in Hong Kong." Miss Uehara pressed her hands on the conference table. "At present, there is no employee in that new company. After a while, I will just hire someone to sit there to deal with it."
“What business?”
Tomoto Uehara did not point out that Miss Uehara was clearly building a bag company. Such a thing is not a big deal for them. The point is what is the purpose?
Miss Uehara was about to say that, but he spoke again, "Wait, let me guess..."
He thought for a while, then gently lit the table with his fingers and said, "Do you want to be an agent?"
"It's almost the same." Miss Uehara smiled, "It's not an intermediary, it's a copyright agent!"
Tomono Uehara nodded without saying a word.
In fact, everyone is quite familiar with the copyright agent. The more well-known ones are like the copyright of music. Many times, not long after a song is created, the copyright does not belong to the creator. For example, someone used some music in the past, so he rushed to the music creator's Twitter to serve as a copyright policeman, asking the other party if he knew about this, whether the C site had obtained authorization, etc.
However, in fact, these creators themselves don’t know whether they have authorization, and they don’t have the right to decide whether to authorize them... The copyright is no longer theirs.
If you run to ask someone, they are also confused.
Most of these copyrights will be handed over to the music library. There is a music library that is set up and authorized to others for use. Usually it is not for one song or one song to be sold, but for the copyright of an entire music library, the copyright of a whole music library can be used reasonably.
"I have one last question." Uehara Tomono said.
"Speak and listen."
"Can I buy a share of your bag company?"
Miss Uehara pointed at Tomoto Uehara, and her face changed.
"Who is this person? Why did he run to our office meeting? Security! Security!..."
