Rebirth of the Best Businesswoman at School-Chapter 1383 - Authorization

1383 Authorization

Li Yunmei told Jian Yiyi everything about Guan Tao in school.

It turned out that the news spread on the second day after the charity banquet. Yan Tian leaked the news, and it spread like wildfire. Everyone knew that the dress that everyone was looking at was Guan Tao’s handiwork. Those who were familiar with her could not help but be surprised.

Someone who was usually quiet had such a powerful side.

Moreover, everyone knew that Guan Tao had a sketchbook that contained blueprints of over a hundred sets of clothes she had designed over the years. Many people were curious and wanted to borrow and look. Guan Tao was so frightened that she didn’t dare to bring the sketchbook she usually carried to school, afraid that someone would damage it.

Li Yunmei spoke on the other end of the phone, but Jian Yiyi could not listen to anything. Her heart was in a mess because she did not know how to talk to Guan Tao about this. After all, the two of them rarely interacted.

The next day, Monday.

Guan Tao took the bus to school as usual. As soon as she got off the bus stop, she saw Gao Yang standing under the bus stop sign.

Gao Yang also saw Guan Tao and his slightly cold expression softened slightly. He waved at her.

Guan Tao was stunned and quickly ran forward. “Why are you here? Are you waiting for me?”

Gao Yang skillfully took Guan Tao’s bag and naturally held her hand. He pulled her along and said, “Qinghuan and the rest are waiting for you. They asked me to pick you up.”

Gao Yang led Guan Tao away in a daze. When she came back to her senses, she was already sitting in the breakfast stall at the school gate.

They placed steamed buns and hot soy milk in front of her. Qinghuan, Lin Yi, and Yan Tian were sitting opposite her.

Guan Tao blinked and said, “What’s wrong? Is there something to discuss?”

Usually, when they gathered like this, they would have something to discuss, such as where to play and if they wanted to have a meal together this weekend.

Qinghuan was eating buns. When she heard this, she couldn’t help but quickly wipe her hands with a piece of paper. Then, she took out a document from her bag and handed it to Guan Tao. She said, “Sign it!”

Guan Tao frowned and looked at Qinghuan suspiciously. Then, she looked at the document in her hand. Her head was filled with glue.

“What is this?” Guan Tao said and reached out to take it.

She opened it and realized that it was an authorization letter. 𝑓𝙧𝙚𝙚w𝙚𝙗𝒏oν𝐞l. c𝑜𝙢

Qinghuan immediately explained, “Tao Zi, Meili Magazine asked you for authorization to publish your dress.”

“Ah?” Guan Tao was slightly shocked. To Guan Tao, who was passionate about the fashion industry, the words ‘Meili Magazine’ were like thunder in her ears. It was a few levels higher than ordinary fashion magazines and was especially expensive.

She had only bought a few issues over the years. Ordinary newspaper stands by the road did not sell Meili Magazine. They could only be found in high-end bookstores.

Such a bigshot magazine wanted to publish her dress? They even wanted her authorization?

“This…” Guan Tao was dumbfounded. She blinked for a long time before saying, “This is a good thing. Just publish it directly then. Why go through so much trouble?”

They couldn’t help but laugh when they heard that. Qinghuan immediately explained, “How can a big company be the same as a small workshop and not have a copyright concept? Moreover, it’s a proper fashion magazine. Once it’s published, it has to take up a page. It can only be published with the designer’s authorization. This is copyright awareness. Otherwise, it will be illegal.”

“Initially, they went to my company to ask for the authorization, but the copyright belongs to you alone. It has nothing to do with Rose Entertainment. Vice President Qiao almost rejected them. Fortunately, Brother Jin bumped into them, so he contacted the people from Meili and asked the other party for the contract. If you sign it, it’s equivalent to giving the other party the authorization. When the time comes, I’ll take a few more beautiful photos of the dress and send them over. It’ll be settled!”

“Tao Zi, this is a good opportunity for you to become famous at a young age. All the outfits in Meili Magazine are from famous designers in the country or abroad. You’re not even eighteen years old, but you’re already on Meili Magazine. You are considered to be a genius!” Yan Tian said.

Lin Yi nodded as well. “This is a rare opportunity. Tao Zi, you have to seize it. Every fashion product published in Meili Magazine will have a paragraph introducing the designer. When the time comes, your name will appear on the page of the dress. It’s an opportunity for more people to get to know you.”

Gao Yang sat at the side and said gently, “Sign it.”

Guan Tao was a little excited. She nodded and picked up the pen to sign her name.

Oh my, Meili Magazine would publish her clothes one day. This was something Guan Tao had never thought about.

Chen Jin was the one who got the contract, so there was naturally no problem. Xia Qinghuan put the contract away and said, “I’ll give the contract to Brother Jin later. Brother Jin will follow up. Some staff over there should look for you soon. When everything is completed, they’ll give you thirty thousand yuan directly. At that time, you can just sign the receipt!”

“Thirty… thirty thousand yuan?” Guan Tao was dumbfounded again!

Xia Qinghuan looked at Guan Tao in amusement and nodded. “That’s right. The contract says that the authorization fee is thirty thousand yuan!”

“But I don’t have money, Qinghuan…” Guan Tao blinked and immediately regretted it.

Unexpectedly, her words made the others laugh. Qinghuan reached out and pinched Guan Tao’s face. She said helplessly, “My silly Tao Zi, did you hear what I said? They’re giving you money, not the other way around.”

“Of course, they have to spend money to publish your work in Meili Magazine. Otherwise, do you think those design masters will casually let a fashion magazine publish their work? They will definitely collect copyright fees!”

When she heard that the other party would give her thirty thousand yuan, Guan Tao was even more stunned.

It was already her honor to have her dress published in Meili Magazine, but the other party still wanted to give her money?

Guan Tao felt a little weak and couldn’t help but say, “Forget about the money. It’s good enough that I can get published.”

“Don’t be nervous. This is normal procedure,” Gao Yang said gently.

Lin Yi also said, “That’s right. This is legal. Previously, those tabloids privately published your work without permission. That was already infringing on rights.”

Qinghuan raised her eyebrows and nodded. “That’s right. However, this can be considered as a promotion, so I can’t be bothered to argue with them. However, Meili Magazine is a benchmark in the industry, so they naturally won’t do such a thing. Just accept it with a clear conscience. That dress is so beautiful. Of course, you have to charge them. You deserve it!”

Gao Yang gently held Guan Tao’s hand on the table and said, “Didn’t Uncle and Auntie agree to let you enter Huaxia Beauty College? It’s time to need this money.”

Thirty thousand yuan was not a small sum for Guan Tao’s family. Even if Huaxia Beauty College’s school fees were expensive, thirty thousand yuan was enough to play a huge role.

Guan Tao nodded in acceptance.
