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.”
“This method can minimize the loss!”
Hearing Simon’s answer, Jane’s tightly knitted brows slightly relaxed.
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.
They were all big productions and investments!
It could be said that they were extremely popular.
With Mary’s connections in the film industry, the price would only be high and not low!
“Thank you, Aunt.” Simon let out a long sigh.
Jane was still worried. “No, Simon, the website I bought definitely can’t compare to the Creative, and the background operation is even worse!”
“Just to be safe, let your fourth sister be the technical consultant!”
Jane still did not know that Simon’s programming skills were better than Catherine’s.
Just as she was speaking, the matter had already been arranged. She immediately called Catherine to ask her to come back.
“It’s not good. Fourth Sister still has her project to attend to.” Simon pulled Jane back and told her to calm down first.
To have a top student from Cambridge become a technical consultant for the literature network, wasn’t it just wasting Catherine’s talent?.
Perhaps only Jane could think of this method.
But Jane was a man of her word. “What project can be more important than you?!”
She directly dialed Catherine’s number.
The overbearing CEO’s speech was really touching.
Everyone in the family was arranged clearly.
Simon was very touched to have a group of sisters who were thinking of him, but the eldest sister was really too strong.
She was simply the same style as his aunt.
Even if she cared about people, she also carried an irresistible domineering air!
“Buzz buzz!”
Just as the family was busy, Simon’s phone rang.
Was it Mona?
Simon thought it was something else at the company.
He picked up the phone and saw that it was an unfamiliar number, and it was from overseas.
After hesitating for a moment, Simon answered the call.
“Simon, it’s Hughes. Are you hurt?” The person on the other end of the line asked without raising his eyebrows.
Hmm?
Where was he hurt?
Was it his soul?
Senior brother’s greeting method was really special.
“Senior Brother, I’m fine. Why do you ask such question?” Simon didn’t understand.
“I already know about the company’s matter. I’m sorry for causing such a big loss to you,” Hughes blamed himself.
“It’s okay, Senior Brother. I’ve already found a solution.”
“Really?” Hughes said in surprise.
But after a short moment of surprise, his voice instantly became dispirited.
“It’s good that the company’s matter has been settled, but you must protect yourself!”
????
Why did he keep emphasizing protecting himself?
Hughes’s words were vague, causing Simon to be confused.
“Senior Brother, what exactly happened?” Simon pressed.
On the other end of the phone, Hughes sighed.
Slowly, he said, “I received an anonymous threatening letter. It mentioned that the company had collapsed.”
“I guess the letter was sent by Douglas just to show off to me.”
“The letter also mentioned you. I’m afraid that he will harm you!”
It sounded like Douglas was a very dangerous person.
He had caused other people to be heavily in debt and yet he did not stop. He even threatened others’ safety?
“I’m very safe at home, “Simon said solemnly. “Senior Brother, how about you?”
“I’m staying at a friend’s house now. I’m fine,” Hughes said tiredly. “Douglas is very sinister. You have to be careful!”
“I got it.”

With that, Simon hung up the phone.
It just so happened that Jane had finished assigning tasks to her two younger sisters. She turned around and saw that Simon did not look well.
She walked up to him and asked, “Who called? What did they say?”
“Nothing, just that someone wants to threaten me.”
“Threaten?!” Jane said in surprise!
