Hollywood Zenith

It was a long night that made waves around the country. Samuel didn't know about the consequences of his introduction ceremony yet, but soon he will hear about it.

The sudden revelation also shocked party attendees, who soon put their people to search for more information. Several such personal were running around the whole night asking for Samuel's announcement, which led them to find out more about Laura's condition.

Media personnel aware of the sudden party also stumbled upon the information. They saw a huge opportunity and probed some more to gather evidence. They knew that Rothschild was untouchable, but this gold mine made them willing to risk their necks.

The next day there is countless articles and media coverage on the gathering announcing the emergence of the latest Rothschild family member. Some tabloids also picked up the news to show their take on the whole matter. Countless speculations are made, but they never went too far with their interpretations, but definitely hinted at the heir's adoption. Everyone loves to gossip, and they certainly took the hint, but there was no negative pushback.

Rothschild's family always followed strict rules established to deter individuals from taking advantage of the family's background. It is not all black and white, but recent decades have brought much help to the British people. During the recession in the seventies, the family helped rejuvenate the economy, which is still fresh in people's minds.

The family's public appearances were also not overbearing; they were always humble and had many non-profit organizations to give back to the community, which made ordinary people thank them.

Some daring publishing companies made outrageous claims of Robert having several mistresses and Samuel being the byproduct of their union. Such companies went bankrupt overnight. This has nothing to do with Rothschilds, but their suppliers and ally turned on them, which made them shut down their business in a few days. Others don't want to find themselves in the crosshairs of reigning giants.

The following day, Kenneth and Robert discuss the party's results, which were pretty much what they expected. It successfully gave Samuel a boost in popularity as well as protection from any potential trouble. It also maintained his anonymity, as there was no single photo available, just descriptions that were bizarre.

" Angel, "" Holy-man," " Most beautiful person in the world, "and" Godly" were words used to describe Samuel, which will surely make the masses confused. And such depictions definitely confuse people. What the hell is this all about? Is it an editing mistake? All of this made people more curious about Samuel, but they could only wait for future confirmations.

While all of this is going on, Samuel is having a meeting with Thomas. They sat in the garden area with Donald reviewing their recent financial statistics.

" Samuel, this is the earnings over these past few months. I have already given it to Robert, but I thought you would like to know the fruits of your labor." Thomas gave a document folder to him.

" I trust you, Uncle Thomas. You could just give a rough estimate; I don't want to dive into financials right now. "

Thomas smiled and said. " The total number of paper-back and hardcover copies sold is above thirty million. The book is already translated into twenty-five languages, and several more are now being translated. The collector's edition has sold more than a million copies, it is a little pricey than the other two, but we have a large profit margin for it."

" The picture book is already out for a couple of weeks, but it has already sold more than five million copies. We are also planning to translate it into different languages, boosting sales. There is no concrete number for the picture book, but it is estimated to increase by more than two million in the next few months. "

" Lastly, the endeavor has resulted in more than 500 million pounds in sales, including all costs, and a total of 250 million pounds of pure profit. " He said in an excited tone at the end of his monologue.

" 250 million pounds?? " I exclaimed.

" Yes, I never thought that it would become so popular. I have already handed 200 million to your company. " Thomas said.

" What? Why? I recall we agreed on a fifty-fifty distribution of profits. I can't accept it; It will be unfair to you, Uncle. " I said.

" No, no; It seems fair to me. I never expected such a number; fifty million is already more than enough; besides, we still have your new series. I have already reviewed it and believe it will be a smash hit in the future. Probably surpass ' The Hobbit. " He said with unyielding anticipation, which made me smile.

" I guess we will have to see what happens, but I have faith in this series."

" Samuel, I have something important to tell you. " Donald interrupted.

" Grand-Uncle?"

" It is about your book. I saw its potential when I first read it and decided to instruct Robert to secure rights for your works. It is crucial to protect your characters and story, which could be exploited without proper patent work. It was not significant initially, but with so much popularity, you have to be cautious about such things in the future. " Donal reminded Samuel of its importance.

Intellectual property is the ownership of a person's original work. While there are many different types of intellectual property, patents dominate the technical area.

A patent is a right granted to a person with an invention that prevents others from using their idea without their permission. Once work is patented, an inventor can sell, distribute, produce, import, or export it for 20 years.

If someone wants to make a book adaptation of their work, they have to ask for my permission. They could negotiate a contract or sell their rights if they felt like it.

" Thank you, Uncle, for your help. I completely missed it. " Samuel said.
