Simon picked up his phone, opened the file that Mona had sent over, and looked at it carefully.
The tampered contract had loosened the restrictions on the authors a lot.
They had deleted the clause on the damages for breach of contract. The authors could come and go as they pleased.
The website couldn’t hold them accountable.
It would take a lot of work to change so many things in the contracts.
Douglas had been thinking about this when he screwed Hughes.
He made up his mind not to give Hughes any chance to make a comeback but he didn’t expect Hughes to sell the company to Simon.
And behind him was the entire Hilton Group!
No matter who comes, it would be like a praying mantis trying to stop a car!
He was overestimating himself!
“This Douglas is too vicious!” Jane commented after reading the contract.
She had always been lenient in her business. She would never force someone into a corner!
This guy actually dared to treat Simon like this!
Jane said angrily, “I will help you find this b*stard now!”
After saying that, she was about to call her subordinates.
Simon hurriedly stopped her. “Don’t! Eldest Sister, I have something else that I need your help with!”
“What is it?” Jane sat down obediently.
“I want you to lend me the website that you just bought,” said Simon.
Jane asked in puzzlement, “What is your plan?”
Simon smiled. “I want to use it to connect the dots!”
“In order to facilitate the follow-up of the books on the site, in addition to signing the authors, the company will also sign the copyright.”
“I just looked at it. Although Douglas changed the author’s contract, he didn’t have the time to change the book contract.”
“I want to merge the two websites together, connecting the fame of Creative and the background of your acquisition of the website.”
Jane instantly understood what Simon meant.
He was trying to transfer Creative’s website to another website.
However, the level of the authors of the two websites was far from the same. It might not be able to hide from the readers.
“But even if you have the copyright, without the authors, the book cannot be written later,” Jane said worriedly.
Simon said confidently, “It doesn’t matter. I will temporarily seal these works and then increase the membership discount on the website to divert the readers’ attention.”
“It may lose a portion of the readers, but in fact, the users of Creative would probably be more loyal than other websites.”
However, although this method was good, the cost was not small.
Her brother had thought of a solution, so as the older sister, of course, she had to support him with money.
“Your solution is very good! I will transfer a sum of money to you immediately!” Without saying anything, Jane raised her omnipotent small phone again.
Simon raised his hand again to interrupt her. “Eldest Sister, there’s no need.”
“Don’t tell me you have a huge sum of money?” Jane was slightly surprised.
“Of course not.” Simon could not help but laugh.
How could there be so much money?
Money did not fall from the sky.
“I have the copyright to some of the completed works in my hands. I want to sell them first,” Simon said.
The quality of the novels produced by Creative was one level higher than that of other websites.
They also had a large fan base.
In the past, they had operated as a small workshop. The company had filmed their own films and had never sold them.
But because it was not a professional film and television company, the quality of the finished products was not good, and it did not attract much attention.
If they were willing to sell it now, it would definitely attract many film and television companies to fight for it!
The words “Creative Productions” were the best way to attract fans!
“Good idea!” Bennet slapped her thigh and excitedly stood up to walk two rounds.
Now, when she looked at Simon’s face, not only did she have tender love, but there was also an infinite amount of pride.
She was so moved that her eyes were burning. “Good child, I didn’t know that you were so amazing!”
“I’ll call your third sister right away and ask her to help you find a reliable film company!”
The third sister that Bennet was referring to was the popular star, Mary.
Simon had not officially met her, but he had seen the movies and television shows that she had starred in.
