It's also embarrassing. It was five years after Li Rui first watched "Natsume Friends' Account" that he realized that Yuki Mizukawa was not a man, but a woman!

Yuki Mizukawa is obviously a man's name, how could he be a woman?

At that time, Li Rui didn't believe it at all. It was not until he found Yuki Mizukawa's personal resume and photos on the Internet that he had to believe this fact.

After knowing the gender of Midorikawa Yuki, looking back at some plots in "Natsume Friends' Account" and you can find that there are many unique perspectives of women. No wonder I felt a unique sense of gentleness when I watched it back then.

It was because she had specially searched for photos of Yuki Mizukawa that Li Rui had a deep impression of her and recognized her at a glance.

As a fan of "Natsume Friends' Account", Li Rui was a little excited to see the original author. He wanted to say hello but only understood a few simplest Mandarin. He could only say with a smile: "You sir (hello)!"

Hearing Li Rui's greeting, the two women stopped. Midoka Yuki realized that Li Rui was talking to her, and nodded with a smile: "You are so angry!"

After saying hello, Li Rui didn't know what to say, so he could only gesture with his hands, wanting to ask Yuki Mizukawa to sign for himself.

Yuki Mizukawa didn't quite understand what Li Rui meant. After saying a few words, Li Rui couldn't understand them, and the atmosphere was a bit awkward.

Suddenly, a young girl with excellent figure around Mizukawa Yuki said, "Are you... a... a Chinese native of Hua? Do you speak Hua?"

Li Ruiyixi: "I am from Hua Guo, are you too?"

The girl chuckled: "I am not...Hua Guo, I am an island Guo, I can...Hua Guo's words a little bit."

Her sage language does have a strange tone, but it is already very lucky to meet an islander who can speak sage language in a foreign country.

Li Rui explained his intentions. After the girl translated, Yuki Mizukawa signed the name on the notebook handed over by Li Rui with a smile.

Li Rui felt like he was treasured and thanked him repeatedly.

As he was talking, Zhou Lin walked out and saw Li Rui and said, "Mr. Li, are you here? Mr. Meng and Suzuki have almost talked about it. Please go in and check it out."

After Li Rui expressed his gratitude to Yuki Mizukawa and the girl who spoke in Huihua, he followed Zhou Lin into the booth.

"How are you talking?" Li Rui asked Meng Chenyu.

"Anip put forward a series of conditions, requiring us to ensure the interests of genuine works in the domestic market and to impose some restrictions on the development of derivatives. There is a step-by-step profit sharing plan for the number of playbacks. These requirements are basically within my expectations, and are relatively reasonable, and the interests of both parties can be guaranteed. However, the price they gave is not low, and you need to make the final decision." Meng Chenyu said.

The island country's animation industry is popular all over the world, and the copyright operation model is also very mature, and it has its own set of external authorization methods.

As long as the other party’s request was not too excessive, Li Rui was still willing to respect this mature model, so he did not ask more about the authorization conditions and directly asked for the price.

"How much do they want?"

Meng Chenyu said: "There are three prices in total according to different authorization levels and copyright content packages..."

He said three numbers, which were very large, but they were also expected by Li Rui.

Although the price of the largest content package is very high, it almost includes all the famous IPs under Anip, which can make Bizhan and Kuliu immediately become the video websites with the most authentic animation copyrights in the island country.

Although many users of Huaguo still chose to pirate the public until more than ten years later, with the advent of the trend of authenticating and the era of copyright operation, this part of the copyright can become an asset with great potential. With a little financial operation, it will gain a value of dozens of times higher than the price you pay now.

"What do you think of the price?" Li Rui still wanted to ask Meng Chenyu's opinion.

Meng Chenyu pondered. He did have his own ideas, but was considering whether to say it out.

After all, it involves tens of millions or hundreds of millions of copyright fees. If his idea cannot be realized in the future and causes huge losses to the company, even if he does not have to bear the responsibility, he may leave a bad impression on Li Rui.

Li Rui saw his concern and smiled and said, "You provide advice and I will make the decision. The result is good, you have a bonus, and there is no punishment if the result is bad."

Meng Chenyu smiled and said, "If I really lose money, I will not have the shame to stay in the company... In fact, the authorization fee of the island people is clearly marked to the world, because of the special circumstances of our country, the price is discounted compared with other countries. I think the country will attach great importance to copyright in the future, promote the process of legalization and ensure the progress of cultural fields. By that time, these copyrights will not be the current price, at least double."

Li Rui nodded.

Meng Chenyu's judgment of future trends is not wrong. In the past few years, driven by Fox Video and Real Strategy Video, a wave of copyright acquisitions has set off in China. This year, the prices of various film and television copyrights have also soared.

In the next few years, copyright prices will become higher and higher, so high that long video websites that first set off this wave cannot stand it, but that is a story later.

The only thing Meng Chenyu's wrong judgment was that he underestimated the increase in copyright fees. The copyright fees now look quite high, but if you hold them in your hands for a year or two, you will find that you bought gold at a bargain price. It's more than doubled, and it's possible to double it ten times!

"Just sign the contract at this price." Li Rui made the decision.

Zhou Lin said a few words to Suzuki Nobuki. Suzuki smiled and held Li Rui's hand in both hands, constantly saying "Aligado".

As he was talking, two women he met at the door just now walked in and were a little surprised to see this scene.

When Suzuki Shintoki saw the two of them, he quickly talked.

Zhou Lin translated: "Mr. Suzuki said that both of them are Anip's collaborative cartoonists, Ms. Midoka, the author of "Natsume Friends' Account", and Ms. Sakurai, the author of "Super Energetic Sisters".

Only then did Li Rui realize that the girl who was with Yuki Mizukawa was also a cartoonist. This girl who knew how to speak the Wagyu language had a good appearance and had a very fashionable outfit. It was really hard to associate her with the profession of a cartoonist.

Suzuki Shintsuki introduced Li Rui to the two cartoonists, and they all looked surprised.

Yuki Mizukawa shook hands with Li Rui and said, "It turns out that you are an investor from Huaguo and have just been rude."

Li Rui smiled and said, "Teacher Mizukawa is so polite."

Li Rui and Sakurai Mao asked curiously as they shook hands: "Why did you name a man?"

Sakurai Mao smiled and said, "I don't want others to ignore my works because of my attention to my gender. My real name is Shimi, you can call me Shimi."

"I'd better call you Mr. Sakurai." Li Rui said, "I especially admire people who are good at painting. If you find time, you must read your works."
