Roxanne’s voice was a bit low.
“On the internet, do you think what you said would be real? Besides, I actually didn’t do anything.”
Stephanie knew what Roxanne meant.
Now on “A Glimmer of Roxie,” Daphne was already added to the songwriting, and with Roxanne’s current marketing, most people thought Daphne was just along for the ride, and the whole song was still Roxanne’s original.
With Roxanne’s marketing tricks, as long as Daphne dared to speak up, Roxanne could turn her into someone who just took part but wanted to steal all the credit–a greedy person.
That was the huge public opinion crushing Daphne, a minor celebrity.
Noticing the other person’s silence, Roxanne smiled with satisfaction.
She had already gotten ready. Even if Daphne showed the copyright proof, she could say that the song was recorded in Conway Entertainment’s training building from the start. She, Roxanne, was just a newbie in the music industry and didn’t know anything, so she let Daphne help her out.
The copyright registration was also handled by Daphne. If Roxanne wasn’t registered, then Daphne took advantage of her.
So both sides had a dispute and needed to go to court. The lawsuit process was really long. Even if, after a long, long time, the truth finally came out, the best timing was already missed.
$400
“Figured it out?” Roxanne thought, then said firmly, “Wanna say yes? You can still get something now, but maybe not later.”
Stephanie smiled and said, “Not for sale.”
“Daphne, you gotta know,” Roxanne sounded a bit shocked over there, “even if it ended up in court, I could still make it so I only had to pay money.”
“And the whole lawsuit would take a long time, you might as well just agree to work with me now, you’d get funding and resources.”
But Stephanie just laughed and then hung up the phone.
Stephanie looked at her phone.
She knew Roxanne wouldn’t give up.
She was just a bit curious to see what else Roxanne would do to get herself in trouble.
If at first Roxanne could say she didn’t mean to infringe, she could say she thought buying the song meant she could call it her own.
So now, Roxanne knew she was infringing but still refused to make a public apology, and just did whatever she wanted, trying to blur the facts by adding her name.
The difference between these two was huge, and subjective intent could get a heavier sentence.
According to what she knew about Maxwell.
If a project was too risky, he would just stop it right away.
But what if Roxanne insisted on pushing forward?
Stephanie lowered her eyes a little.
“Roxanne, you brought all this on yourself.”
She clenched her right hand and tried to calm herself down
Then she went back to the ward and kept focusing on what she was doing
In a few days, the first batch of new products from the Wilkinson Group was about to hit the shelves. She had to get ready and make sure to start off with a bang!
The other side.
