Chapter 803 Stealing Sales

Xiao Yunhai took out the gold bank card that Zhao Wanqing helped him set up from his pocket, threw it to his sister, and said, "It can be overdrawn at most 100 million, and the password is the last six digits of my phone number. I tell you, you can't spend it randomly. "

When Xiao Yunling heard this, he quickly put it away and said with a giggling, "Don't worry, I'll just buy some jewelry at most."

Xiao Yunhai snorted and said, "I advise you not to buy in Hainan, it's a tourist area, and there are all kinds of people. If you are targeted when you buy something, it will be a big trouble. already."

Xiao Yunling bit his lip, thought for a moment, and said, "You are right. So I decided to let Zhang Yuan accompany me to visit all the jewelry stores in Yanjing tomorrow morning. Brother, don't feel bad."

Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "As you wish, the money you spend will be deducted from Zhang Yuan anyway."

Xiao Yunling said in surprise: "He's just a pauper, where's the money for you?"

Xiao Yunhai laughed and said: "It won't be so soon. Your vision is good. Although this kid is a little dull in life, he is an uncompromising genius. The 3D technology he has researched has already made breakthroughs, and I will do it tomorrow. Will go to patent. In less than a year, he'll be a billionaire."

"God, Zhang Yuan will become a billionaire. The world is changing too fast." Xiao Yunling said with an incredible look.

"Don't look down on Zhang Yuan. I'll bet that he will become a great character in the future. Well, it's getting late, go and rest."

After Xiao Yunhai finished speaking, he returned to his room, leaving only Xiao Yunling standing there stupidly.

Early the next morning, Xiao Yunhai went to the Huaxia Patent Office for registration with 3D technology-related materials, and flew to the United States non-stop in the afternoon.

After handing over the things to the World Patent Association, Xiao Yunhai came to the villa in Los Angeles to deal with the issue of "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets".

Half a month ago, he received a call from a private detective, saying that the four major publishers in Europe had done the same trick again, and they were very courageous, and they even hacked Harry Potter's sales of tens of millions.

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets officially went on sale on May 16, and to date, 130 million copies have been sold worldwide. Among them, the sales in the United States reached 28 million copies, the Chinese version of Huaxia sold 29 million copies, the English version sold 6.5 million copies, and the other 66 million copies were all from Europe. Four major publishing houses.

According to the share of the contract, they can earn at least 120 million US dollars. Unexpectedly, they were still not satisfied, and secretly published 10 million copies, which is a profit of more than 100 million US dollars, which is simply too frustrating.

After Xiao Yunhai heard the news, although he was extremely angry, he didn't have a seizure immediately, he just let someone secretly collect evidence.

One is that he is really busy and has no time to deal with it, and the other is that he wants to see how greedy the four major publishing houses can be.

After returning to the villa, Xiao Yunhai called the private detective who had been helping him and asked him to come to Los Angeles with evidence.

The next day, an ordinary-looking middle-aged man sat in front of Xiao Yunhai.

Xiao Yunhai shook hands with him and said with a smile, "Mr. Stoke, hello. Although we often communicate on the phone, this is the first time we meet in reality."

Stoke smiled and said, "I feel very honored to meet the famous Kung Fu Xiao."

After the two were polite, Xiao Yunhai said, "Mr. Stoke, isn't it very dangerous to do this job?"

Stoke sighed and said, "Of course. Our private detectives generally do shameful things. Once caught by the other party, although they won't die, a beating is inevitable."

Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "Can I take a look at something?"

"certainly."

Stock took out a large stack of photos and materials from his briefcase, pointed to the top photo, and said, "This is a secret printing factory they set up in private. Each of the four major publishing houses has such a factory. , the books they print won't appear on the sales list."

Xiao Yunhai frowned and said, "How could they falsify the data reported by the bookstore?"

Stoke said: "It's very simple, can't you underreport? Mr. Xiao, this is their unspoken rule. The publishing house cooperates with the bookstore, and the profits obtained are divided into three and seven. However, there are very few such bookstores, otherwise, It's easy to leak. Like they generally work with Lacey Bookstore and Fantasy Bookstore, both of them are big chain bookstores that cover all of Europe, and they do things like this often together. So if you're going to sue the big four publishers , may involve them as well."

Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "I understand. Mr. Stoke, thank you. You are really amazing. Not only were you able to photograph so many things, but you also got the daily sales charts of Lacey Bookstore and Fantasy Bookstore. I have great admiration for the abilities of your detective agency."

Stoke smiled and said, "Mr. Xiao, it's too much."

Xiao Yunhai took out the check he had prepared from his pocket and said, "This is the one million dollars you deserve."

Stoke was stunned and said, "Mr. Xiao, are you giving too much? We agreed on $600,000 before."

Xiao Yunhai said: "The other 400,000 is my personal thanks to Mr. Stoke. I'm not a stingy person. You saved so much money for me, of course I have to thank you."

With a happy smile on Stoke's face, he took the check and said sincerely, "Mr. Xiao, you are the most generous guest I have ever met. Thank you very much. I hope there will be opportunities for cooperation in the future."

Xiao Yunhai said: "There will be."

After sending Stoke away, Xiao Yunhai carefully read the documents in his hand one by one, and then called Jesse.

"Xiao, have you come to Los Angeles?"

Xiao Yunhai was stunned for a moment, and said, "How do you know?"

Jesse laughed. "Guess. Obviously, I guessed right."

Xiao Yunhai said: "Jesse, it sounds like you are in a very good mood."

"Sure. Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets sold 28 million copies, can I be upset?"

"But I'm not happy. Jesse, I want to sue the big four European publishing houses."

Hearing Xiao Yunhai's words, Jessie paused and said, "Xiao, where are you, can we meet?"

Xiao Yunhai said: "Of course. I'm in the villa. If you have time, come over. I need to discuss this matter with you."

Half an hour later, Jesse sat opposite Xiao Yunhai.

He took out a cheque from his bag and handed it to Xiao Yunhai, saying, "Xiao, the first batch of funds has arrived, a total of 120 million US dollars."

Xiao Yunhai took it, glanced at it, and said with a smile, "It seems that we really made a lot of money."

Jesse laughed and said: "Of course. I did a rough calculation, and you can get at least $140 million in profit. This is only the United States. If you count other regions, God, I'm going to go crazy. "

Xiao Yunhai shrugged and said, "It's also thanks to the promotion of the movie, otherwise I wouldn't have gotten such a good result. Jesse, I came to you to ask you to help me with my advice. You should look at these materials first. ."
