You Buying Novel Copyrights as a Ride-Hailing Driver? (Sub Needed)_What’s Wrong With a Ride-Hailing Driver Having Some Money?
The couple got into the car, and Yang Chen quickly asked, “Which hospital would you like to go to?”
The man in the baseball cap immediately replied, “Anywhere is fine, just take us to any hospital.”
Yang Chen nodded, checked the navigation, and found that the nearest large hospital was Dawn Hospital.
After confirming the destination, Yang Chen turned his head and reminded them, “Please buckle up, we are going to Dawn Hospital now.”
The man in the baseball cap nodded.
Just as Yang Chen turned his head back, his eyes scanned the pregnant woman’s shoes, and he realized what felt off.
Normally, a pregnant woman with a big belly would wear flat shoes. It’s common sense, and no one would be foolish enough to wear high heels.
But!
The pregnant woman in the back was wearing high heels.
Is that normal?
For some reason, Yang Chen suddenly felt that the atmosphere in the car was strange.
While pretending to adjust his seat belt, Yang Chen opened the WeChat account of Chen Qingxia, whom he had just added as a friend.
If something was really wrong, he would send a distress signal.
Yang Chen took two bottles of water from the car refrigerator next to him and handed them to the two people in the back.
“Drinking some water might make you feel better,” Yang Chen said.
The man in the baseball cap thanked him, took the water, opened a bottle, and drank it directly, without any consideration for his pregnant wife.
The pregnant woman took a bottle of water herself, opened the cap, and drank it as well.
Judging from their behavior, they couldn’t be a couple.
Regardless of their identities, he should catch them first.
Yang Chen was about to unbuckle his seat belt, preparing to use the same method he used to catch the fugitive to deal with these two.
At that moment, he noticed an Alphard [a luxury minivan] following them.
When Yang Chen sped up a little, the Alphard sped up a little.
When Yang Chen slowed down a little, the Alphard slowed down a little.
Obviously, the Alphard was tailing Yang Chen.
“Phew…” Yang Chen breathed a sigh of relief.
If he got out of the car and ran away at this time, he would probably be hit by the Alphard. The car was the safest place to be.
While waiting for the red light, Yang Chen turned on the music and sent an “SOS” distress signal to Chen Qingxia.
Afterward, Yang Chen kept his attention on the rearview mirror, he had to keep an eye on the two passengers in the back to prevent them from attacking him.
On the other side, Chen Qingxia, who was registering information about the massage girls, was stunned when she saw the message from Yang Chen.
As a police officer, she knew what “SOS” meant.
Chen Qingxia quickly found the deputy captain and whispered, “Deputy Captain Li, Yang Chen suddenly sent this, is he in danger?”
Deputy Captain Li nodded and said, “Possibly! Last time, in the Top Peak Apartment case, we arrested more than a dozen organizers, it’s hard to guarantee that there will be any escapees. Quick, call the platform and ask them to provide the real-time location of Yang Chen’s car, we’ll chase after him now!”
Chen Qingxia immediately contacted the Bee Bee platform and retrieved the real-time video footage from Yang Chen’s car.
Subsequently, Deputy Captain Li led more than a dozen police officers to chase after him.
Yang Chen felt that he had to save himself. They were following him unhurriedly, definitely waiting for Yang Chen to reach their predetermined location before taking action, so he must not go to their predetermined location.
However, on such a flat and wide road, as long as Yang Chen got out of the car, he would definitely be chased by the Alphard.
But staying in the car, the space was too small, and he might not be able to handle two people.
At this moment, an alley appeared on the right front.
Yang Chen felt that his chance had come. As long as he blocked the car at the entrance of the alley, the Alphard would not be able to chase him.
As long as the other party couldn’t hit him with the car, he would have no problem dealing with ten or eight hooligans with his skills.
No sooner said than done!
Yang Chen first locked the doors and windows, slammed on the accelerator to rush into the alley, unbuckled his seat belt, slammed on the brakes, pulled out the key, got out of the car, and ran into the alley.
The two people in the car stabilized themselves and quickly tried to open the door, kicking and trying to break it open, but they couldn’t succeed.
The Alphard stopped, and five people got out and rushed into the alley.
Yang Chen could deal with these people, but there was no need to really fight them.
Therefore, he used his advantage of being at the peak of human speed and quickly disappeared into the dark alley.
Soon, Chen Qingxia and others arrived and surrounded Yang Chen’s car and the Alphard.
Yang Chen ran back around, and Chen Qingxia quickly ran to meet him.
“Yang Chen, are you okay?” Chen Qingxia asked worriedly.
Yang Chen smiled and shook his head, saying, “I’m fine. Thank you for getting here in time.”
Chen Qingxia smiled and said, “I like you so much, of course, I have to get here as quickly as possible. If you are in any danger, I will definitely be very sad.”
Yang Chen said helplessly, “As long as you don’t release announcements without my permission in the future, I won’t be in danger. I don’t even need to ask, they must be from the Top Peak Apartment group. There are still five people who escaped, how am I going to live in the future?”
After speaking, Yang Chen opened the car door.
The police immediately stepped forward and apprehended the man and woman in the car.
The woman was not pregnant at all; she just stuffed a small *mantou* [steamed bun] basket into her clothes.
The woman asked unconvinced, “How did you find out about us?”
“Although I haven’t gotten married and had children yet, I have basic common sense. Which seven-month pregnant woman wears your kind of high heels? When I gave you two water, this big brother took it and drank it without caring about you at all. You didn’t show any displeasure either, you just took a bottle and opened it and drank it. The feelings you two showed were not those of a couple about to become parents. This Alphard was following me closely, I drove fast and it drove fast, I drove slow and it drove slow, so I was even more sure that you were trying to harm me,” Yang Chen explained.
The pregnant woman stomped her feet in frustration. She didn’t have the awareness of being a mother, and it was normal that she didn’t think of these details.
The police apprehended the two people into the car and took them away, and also took the Alphard away as well.
Chen Qingxia volunteered to escort Yang Chen home.
With her small body, if she really encountered danger, Yang Chen would have to distract himself to protect her.
……
The next morning, Chen Qingxia called Yang Chen.
After a night of pursuit by the police, the other five escapees have all been arrested.
The case is currently under trial, and Yang Chen will be notified immediately when there are results.
Yang Chen said very seriously, “None of this is important, I only have one request, don’t reveal his personal information so high-profile in the future.”
Chen Qingxia laughed and said,
“Don’t worry, I have already told the captain, and I guarantee that I will not reveal any information about you in the future. So, are you free later? Come and receive the award for bravery again.”
Yang Chen was speechless, and for the first time, he felt that being praised was a particularly painful thing.
For ordinary people, the award for bravery is definitely a good thing to take a shortcut in life.
As long as you can get this award, children’s schooling, personal employment, housing problems, medical security, etc., will all be given priority.
What do ordinary people strive for in their lives?
A warm home, a stable job, worry-free schooling for children, and medical treatment when sick, that’s all.
It can be said that getting this award can reduce the struggle by at least 10 years.
But Yang Chen doesn’t lack these things now, so he’s not interested in this award.
However, it’s better to have it than not, so just take it.
After three days of consultation, Wang Zhenxi finalized the contract with Li Haiyang and Zhang Xiuchun respectively.
Subsequently, Wang Zhenxi sent the contract to Yang Chen for review.
In short, Yang Chen offered 200 million to buy all the rights and interests of the four resorts, but the previous debts of the resorts were resolved by Li Haiyang and Zhang Xiuchun.
The two parties first signed the contract, and Yang Chen needed to pay half of the funds to a third-party regulatory account first. Li Haiyang and Zhang Xiuchun resolved the debt problem, and then Yang Chen paid them half of the funds and paid off the balance within three months.
The employees, suppliers, etc. of the four resorts will be taken over by the Binhai Resort Company and independently rectified, without being affected by any external factors.
In general, the contract is fair to both parties, and Yang Chen personally felt that there was no problem, so he signed it.
Now Yang Chen has 91.2 million in his account. If he pays half of the funds to the regulatory account, he will still be short of more than 8 million.
After dinner, Yang Chen didn’t go out to drive anymore. He lay on the bed and gifted virtual items on live streams to withdraw money.
There are still 88.9 million virtual currencies rewarded by the system that have not been withdrawn. These two days, he will work harder to withdraw some of this money, which will be enough to solve the urgent need.
Yang Chen opened Douyu Live [a live streaming platform] and entered Zhou Zhenyi’s live broadcast room.
Zhou Zhenyi was chatting with fans. When she saw that the Immortal Star had entered, she excitedly put down her phone and said, “Brother Xingchen, long time no see! Have you been busy recently?”
Yang Chen didn’t want to waste time typing and chatting, so he directly gifted virtual items.
“Immortal Star gives the anchor Super Fire x1, x2, x3…”
Zhou Zhenyi said excitedly, “Thank you, Brother Xingchen, for the Super Fire! Brother Xingchen, do you want a wife? As long as you say yes, I’ll go over.”
Barrage [comments section in live streaming].
“Damn! Is it so direct?”
“As expected of Boss Xingchen, he is ruthless and doesn’t talk much. He comes in and starts with a wave of Super Fire.”
“I wish I could experience Boss Xingchen’s life for a day. In such a short time, there are more than 50 Super Fires.”
“Sister Zhou, you are simping too directly. People are so rich, they will definitely not marry you, just hook up is fine. If you know what’s going on, quickly make a private appointment with Boss Xingchen offline.”
……
Zhou Zhenyi said with a grievance, “It’s not that I don’t want to make a private appointment with Brother Xingchen, it’s that he doesn’t want to see me. I sent him a lot of private messages, but he never replied. To be honest, I’m a little inferior. The top-ranked big brothers of other anchors gift virtual items all for offline hookups with anchors, but Brother Xingchen gifts virtual items doesn’t make excessive demands on me. I feel extremely insulted. Brother Xingchen, why don’t you make an excessive demand on me, otherwise I won’t feel at ease taking your gifts.”
After 100 Super Fires, the gifts stopped.
Immortal Star: “I’m just bored, so I came over to gift some virtual items for the anchors I like, I don’t need offline appointments.”
Barrage.
“The big boss is still the big boss, we poor people can’t understand his thoughts.”
“Boss Xingchen is so rich, he must be tired of women in reality.”
“Haha… It’s the first time I’ve seen an anchor begging the top-ranked big brother to make some excessive demands.”
……
Zhou Zhenyi: “Brother Xingchen, why don’t I sing for you? I feel uneasy if I don’t do something for you.”
Immortal Star: “Why don’t you come to my place? I recently started a brokerage company and need some anchors to support the facade.”
Zhou Zhenyi: “Really? That’s great! As long as Brother Xingchen needs it, I can go over anytime! My contract is also about to expire. I was originally negotiating a renewal with the union, but since Brother Xingchen said he wanted me to go to your company, then I won’t talk to them. Brother Xingchen, when will we meet?”
Immortal Star: “Private chat.”
Zhou Zhenyi quickly picked up her phone and chatted with Yang Chen privately, and the two added each other as WeChat friends.
Afterward, Yang Chen introduced Zhou Zhenyi to Yu Shishi and asked Yu Shishi to talk to her about the next things.
Only 200,000 was withdrawn, and he had to continue gifting virtual items.
Yang Chen gifted a circle of anchors that he liked, but he only gifted out 2 million in total.
No one was competing with him to gift virtual items, and he couldn’t get excited at all. He didn’t want to gift anymore.
At this time, Yang Chen thought of Yuan Xiaozhao.
Yang Chen opened the Qidian app [a web novel platform] and read a few chapters of Yuan Xiaozhao’s new chapters.
From the perspective of the overbearing president theme, she wrote very well.
Yang Chen suddenly had an idea, why not buy the full copyright of this book?
When Yang Chen has money in the future, investing in a film and television company and making this into an overbearing president TV series is also a very good attempt.
So, Yang Chen found the QQ number responsible for the copyright on the Qidian website and applied to add a friend.
Soon, the friend application was approved.
Yang Chen directly stated that he wanted to buy the full copyright of Yuan Xiaozhao’s “You and the Spring Breeze Are All Passers-by” and asked the other party to open a price.
The copyright customer service was the first time to meet such a generous customer, so she thought Yang Chen was teasing her.
Copyright Customer Service: “Mr. Yang, let’s talk about the details first. I’m a little uncomfortable talking about the price directly.”
Yang Chen: “I don’t have time to talk nonsense with you, I want the full copyright, you open a price.”
The copyright customer service was a little angry, she felt that Yang Chen was deliberately testing the copyright fee market of Qidian.
So, she deliberately quoted a very high price.
“According to the copyright fees of other works, the full copyright of this book needs about 3 million.”
Yang Chen: “No problem! 3 million is 3 million, let your manager contact me tomorrow. In addition, you tell him that I have a request, that is, to pay the 3 million by gifting virtual items to the work.
Contact me before nine o’clock tomorrow morning, or I won’t wait!”
Afterward, Yang Chen also sent his mobile phone number.
The copyright customer service was stunned, this was the most hassle-free and generous buyer she had communicated with.
However, in order to confirm Yang Chen’s purchase intention, she still called to understand.
After confirming that Yang Chen really wanted to buy the full copyright of “You and the Spring Breeze Are All Passers-by”, the customer service assured him that the supervisor would contact him before nine o’clock tomorrow morning.
According to the 55 split ratio between the website and the author, Yang Chen had to pay 3 million to the website, so he had to reward Yuan Xiaozhao’s work 6 million, so as to ensure that the Qidian website could get 3 million copyright fees.
With these six million gifted over, plus the two million gifted on Douyu just now, it would be enough to gather enough 8 million, plus the funds in the card, the first phase of 100 million yuan for the acquisition of the resort would be gathered.
At 8:30 in the morning, Yang Chen finished dropping off a customer and was resting by the side of the road for a cup of water. Yuan Jingyi, the manager of the Qidian Copyright Department, called.
Yuan Jingyi: “Hello Mr. Yang, I am Yuan Jingyi from the Qidian Copyright Department. Did our customer service say that you intend to buy the full copyright of “You and the Spring Breeze Are All Passers-by”?”
Yang Chen: “Yes! How much money?”
Yuan Jingyi: “Should we talk about the details first, the responsibilities and obligations of both parties?”
Yang Chen: “As long as you give me the full copyright, I don’t want to talk about anything else.”
Yuan Jingyi: “Okay. Then let’s meet and talk? Are you in Haicheng?”
Yang Chen: “Then you go to No. 1 Binjiang Villa and talk to Yu Shishi. I have to drive for work, I don’t have time to tell you so many details.”
Yuan Jingyi was stunned and tentatively asked, “Drive for work? What does Mr. Yang do?”
Yang Chen: “I’m a Bee Bee ride-hailing driver. But don’t worry, I can afford the copyright fee. You can go directly to Yu Shishi in No. 1 Binjiang Villa and talk to her. I have to pick up a fare, I’ll hang up first.”
Yuan Jingyi was bewildered, could this be a prank?
Can a ride-hailing driver spend three million to buy the full copyright of this book?
And he has to pay by rewarding, which means he has to pay 6 million.
This is a bit unbelievable.
However, as the leader of online literature, Qidian naturally has the means to deal with pranksters.
Yuan Jingyi considered again and again, and decided to go to No. 1 Binjiang Villa to see.
If there is really a buyer who wants to buy the copyright, she will increase her personal performance.
If this Yang Chen is doing a prank, then call the police.
The Qidian Legal Department is not vegetarian.
At noon, Yang Chen was eating while watching the fellow drivers in the group complaining about the Bee Bee platform.
Driver Zhang Chunlai: “Damn, I picked up a drunk guest last night, and he secretly vomited on the seat. Later, I added 200 yuan to his order for the car wash fee. As a result, he didn’t pay and complained about me, and then the platform fined me 400 yuan today. Damn, I really lost a lot.”
Driver Zheng Daqian: “Alas… it’s all tears to say more, I have also suffered. I asked the platform customer service for the customer’s phone number, and she said that she couldn’t give it to protect the customer’s privacy. Then I couldn’t find the customer to negotiate the car wash money,
So I had to add 280 yuan to the additional items of the order for the car wash fee. As a result, the customer also complained about me, and the platform also deducted 400 yuan from me. I went to the customer service to reason, and the customer service said that the cleaning fee is an additional fee, and it can only be added if the driver and the passenger agree. Damn, can the passenger be willing to pay the two hundred more car wash fee? How can we agree?”
Driver Chen Xing: “Let’s just say that this broken platform is too unfriendly to drivers, why don’t we strike and ask the platform to reimburse the car wash fee? We can’t let us suffer in silence.”
Driver Zhang Hu: “Don’t make trouble, the platform doesn’t lack drivers, whoever makes trouble will be terminated, and others will still drive to make money. So, don’t be foolish to be the first one to cause trouble.”
Driver Liu Hu: “Alas… I hope that there will be someone among the drivers on our platform who dares to challenge the platform and force them to modify the rules. This is also considered to be seeking benefits for our driver friends. Whoever can do it, we will form a driver union, elect him as the chairman, and lead everyone to fight against the platform’s unfairness in the future. What do you think?”
Driver Zheng Daqian: “I think this suggestion is good. Our driver group is a scattered mess, and we really need a leader to lead us to work hard and fight against unfairness. But who has this ability? And you don’t know what the situation of the trade union in our country is, it’s just an organization for the company to manage employees, and it won’t really think about the workers.”
……
At ten o’clock in the evening, Yang Chen was preparing to pick up the last order and go home to sleep.
After accepting the order, Yang Chen came to the entrance of a bar according to the navigation.
Two attractive women, both around an 8.5 out of 10, wearing hot pants and low-cut dresses got into the car.
As soon as the two got into the car, they shouted and yelled, and it was obvious that they had drunk a lot of wine……
