Chapter 1625: Chapter 1626: They Were Secretly Suppressed

Rong Yan sat up straight, watching her, waiting for her to continue.

Estelle, "Do you remember the proposals Tai Chuan and Ai Mei submitted to us before?"

Rong Yan thought for a moment, nodded, "I remember, what’s up."

"Both companies are quite strong in the industry. After reviewing their proposals, I contacted their representatives."

"Hmm, and then?"

Estelle glanced at her and calmly replied, "Then both said they couldn’t cooperate, each for different reasons."

But the excuses were similar.

Estelle propped up her elbows and continued, "Apart from this, someone from Noon Sun Media also approached us today about the IPs we hold, saying they wanted to collaborate with us to develop some of our IPs. You know Noon Sun Media has produced quite a few hit dramas in recent years, recognized as a top-tier production team in the industry. If we can establish a strategic partnership with them, our IPs could be optimized for production."

Rong Yan was puzzled, "Then just cooperate."

Estelle shook her head, "This afternoon, they called to say they couldn’t cooperate either, giving us an excuse just like the previous two companies. Even though I want to collaborate with Noon Sun Media, we can’t force it if they’ve turned us down."

She took a deep breath and summarized, "So far, four or five out of a dozen companies that sent us proposals have withdrawn. These four or five are precisely the more credible ones within the industry! The documents you’re reviewing now are from a few barely reliable partners I’ve picked from the remaining companies. Each of these has some issues, whether they’ve never independently produced a drama or their productions haven’t received great reviews, and some are small subsidiaries of big companies; they have the capability but come with complex personnel relations and many disputes."

"Do you know how ’Sunny Summer’ eventually got on Fruit Channel?"

"How did it happen?"

"I heard Chu Xi pulled some strings to pressure Fruit Channel, and that’s when the executives decided to purchase ’Sunny Summer’. It wasn’t just that; she’s impressive because she not only got the channel to buy the series but also arranged for it to air during the best time slot swiftly. I’m wondering if our failed collaborations are related to her. After all, her ’Sunny Summer’ clashed with our ’Little Luck’ premiere, and you brought so many friends, plus Mr. Li’s help, all the media were on our side that day. Maybe she’s holding a grudge against us because of that."

Rong Yan finally understood what she was getting at, pondered a moment, and spoke, "Estelle, I have some conflict with Chu Xi. Her grudge against us shouldn’t be about the series, and that conflict won’t be resolved anytime soon, so just ignore her. As for those companies that approached us and then backed out, it’s fine if they don’t want to cooperate. We shouldn’t rush into producing the next one anyway, since we hold the IP rights. If they want to emulate ’Little Luck’, they’ll have to negotiate the rights with us and the author. For now, let’s just manage the rights and leave the rest aside."

"Since you said so... I got it." Estelle suppressed the burden on her mind, no longer mentioning the company’s invisible pressure, and instead relaxed her shoulders, her eyes landing on her notebook. Her fingers flew across the keyboard as she spoke with Rong Yan, " ’Little Luck’ is more successful than I imagined, almost becoming the first series to break out of the web drama circle. Lemon made a killing and Wang Ying wants to invite you to dinner."
