Chapter 1198

Zack nodded, “Yeah. Other companies offered more, but we didn’t trust their production quality, so we went with Foriver Entertainment”

Five million for the rights may not be a big deal to some big shots, but for newcomers like Cornelia, it was a hefty amount. Her last work, The Story of Nesiona, only felched a six–figure sum for the rights This time, it was a ridiculous jump.

“Really? Five million? You’re not pulling my leg, right?” Cornelia asked

“When have we ever messed around with you like that?” Abigail replied.

They had grown up together, and while they liked to goof off, they knew when to be serious and not joke around

Cornelia fell silent, taking time to digest this massive number. She knew that her status had been elevated thanks to Hannah. Hannah’s filming of Cornelia’s The Story of Nesiona had significantly boosted Cornelia’s income.

Now she had once again expressed her love for Cornelia’s new work on social media and showed interest in being involved, making Cornelia’s work skyrocket in value..

Suddenly having this huge income, Cornelia was thrilled but also a bit worried. She was afraid that someone would buy her work and not even be able to recover the cost in the end.

“Did you really sign the contract?” Cornelia asked.

“They’ve already transferred the down payment to us. How could it be fake?” Abigail understood what Cornelia was worned about, “Don’t overthink it. Foriver Entertainment isn’t stupid. Their marketing department has done a thorough assessment before buying our work. If your work isn’t good, no matter how much Hannah promotes it. Foriver Entertainment wouldn’t buy it.”

Zack added, “Honestly, signing a contract at this stage is a no–brainer for Foriver Entertainment. Next month, when The Story of Nesiona starts airing, with Hannah’s popularity, Foriver Entertainment s production quality, and the great plot, the show will at least be popular, if not a huge hit. Once the show becomes popular, your value as the original author will skyrocket, and the value of your work will certainly nse with it. By then, the bundled price of your film and animation rights will definitely be much higher than it is now, and you might feel like I sold it for too cheap.”

Cornelia said, “Would I? We’ve been steadily growing our studio for years, from just the three of us to now over twenty. We just want to continue growing slowly, not make it big overnight.”

Zack agreed, “Indeed, we’ve always been steady. We’re not in a rush to make quick money. One step at a time, that’s the way to go.”

Abigail chimed in, “Today’s a good day, you two, don’t get sidetracked. Now, let’s think about how to spend this money”

Zack asked, ‘Remember our website crash a few days ago?”

Cornelia nodded, “I’ve contacted the best engineers in Riverton. Their annual salary is high, and I’m still considering it.”

Zack said, “Now we have enough funds. We should invest some of it to hire them. We need to ensure the quality of our website, we can’t let it crash again”

“Agreed. Cornelia nodded.

“We must invest this money. But I’m more curious about how much each of us will get.” Abigail started crunching numbers, “Cornelia, Zack, hear me out.”

Alright, go ahead” Seeing Abigail so excited, Cornelia couldn’t help but get excited too.

“Is that all you care about? Zack teased

Abigail exclaimed, “Five million! Do you know what that means? That’s a number I didn’t even dare to dream about before, and now it’s in our account! How can I not be

excited?”
