  The current outlook for Toor Books, as seen through the eyes of some entrepreneurs, is in a game-ging situation with the rise of e-books. The expectation is that the book market will fade away in the 30 years. Now, individuals are gearing up for a business retionship, aiming to shift the editorial burdeirely in favor of Toor Books. M Book hesitated initially, but they didn't mind sealing the deal for a 5-year agreement, reaping bes while the other party takes on the evident load of the retionship and earns much less on the scale of responsibilities.

  Oher side of the equation, Billy knows that transf the publishing house into a foundation, fav authors, aablishing a e beyond the ercial aspect, is a signifit gain in the grand scheme of things. While it's true that money be made through sales, the scale of making billions with a series doesn't apply. Book sales bee sedary to marketing, and film rights, essentially exploiting the books, which is more crucial than a book-selling ceremony. Transf Toor Books into a nonprofit entity that reis its profits in bonds, schorships, and awards for writers in the industry is a heavenly move that the white-colr executives have not fully grasped yet.

  -I'm pleased that we've ducted these iations this way, - said Steve Parks, closing the door behind the leaders of M.

  -It's a mutual be. However, we would like to align your idea with our pany, redug our fees to ehe foundation business. It's a win-win, - Jim Benson suggested.

  -Of course, - said Steve Parks, happy to ease the foundation's burdens in the early months, although the exploitation of the foundation had been pted from the start.

  -We have this ercial deal in mind. You review it and talk to us in the ing weeks, - he said, handing over a card with his number. -- You call me anytime, my assistant will answer, and we reach a iation, - Jim Benson ented.

  -They'll be calling from the legal department, - Steve Parks said, not itting himself, preferring to let the wyers take the bme to avoid problems.

  Happiness resent throughout the loionship. This pany, uhers, khat fulfilliionships pyed a crucial role in these business dealings, where eaiook a back seat, and only business was the starting point for all the entrepreneurs.

  Trying to fill the space, Steve Parks said, - But from my point of view, I will push for the business of creating the foundation. It's something personal, based on providing opportunities for young writers or novices who haven't had a ce to prove their worth. -

  -Sure, talk to the wyers, - Jim dismissed the charity, solely ed with making money. He didn't believe a single word spoken by Steve Parks, but he left the altruistitiment for when they o pay taxes.

  The members of the board fulfilled their present role of accepting decisions that had an impaore than 3% of the pany's assets. The purchase of Toor Books closed at 5.7 million dolrs. Steve Parks' famous phrase, 'making money doing nothing,' wasn't as true as it seemed, but it ended up being bought by M. They yielded to the idea of selling Toor Books and charging for their services.

  ************************************************

  May 3ee walked into the pany founded five years ago, which had been dubbed by circuted Hollywood sources as newers in a factory. Before him stood a grand citadel of factories, buildings, and stru zones.

  The factory looked old, but the facade and the details were exquisite, so much so that he doubted the accuracy of those circuted sources. What seemed to Lucas as a beautiful woman with long legs, just as he liked, approached. He thought of Billy's secretary, perhaps a sales department.

  -Mr. Lucas, I'm Anne Hall, - said the sexy and stunning woman, to whom Gee Lucas found Anne Hall quite attractive, which artially true.

  -Of course, - said Lucas, trying to hide his embarrassment, turning his head to follow Anna Hall, stopping at her figure from behind, apologizing for his boldness, but he was in the presence of true beauty.

  -We've been waiting for you for some time. Let me extend the invitation; we are delighted to extend our retions, - said Anne, expressihanks. After all, the only one who should be a gdiator was Raimon, who looked out for the is of the pany and sought to disr. Lucas.

  -I'm gd it's this way, - said Lucas calmly. Following him was a young man in a fitted gray suit who, at first gnce, looked like a wyer in his thirties. He was a ercial advisor who had been w diligently with Lucasfilm for over nine years to ehe best is of Lucas, verifying the accuracy of as, with knowledge in w, administration, and finance. He was a vital person for Lucas's approval, who only focused on the correct profits of the pany.

  -This is the first floor, the ic louhis is where our volumes arrive for all states and some tries. For now, we are the third-highest-selling ipany, and we are about to surpass Marvel ics. The number one spot is only a short-term goal; there's no doubt about that. Follow me, - Anne said, leading them to the elevator, pressing the fourth floor.

  The rec and dubbing studios, along with a small music studio, had spent a siderable amount for this room. - These are the produ studios. Currently, we have 82 animators w in the pany to create series and produs for our participating films. Of course, we have retionships with two animation studios, one Frend one Ambliertai, - said Anne, proud of the pany, moving on to the third floor. The first thing Gee Lucas saw was the video game room and the small kit with sodas, snacks, and sweets.

  -This way, the gss room, as we call it, otiation space, - said Anne.

  A transparent room with a small projector for dispying some slides and special videos used to present basic previews of the series created by the animators. Opening the door, they found Raimon gracefully dressed in a suit and tie, his chubby figure amusing those aced to seeing him iravagant outfits from TV series, movies, and televised dramas.

  -Pleasure to meet you, Mr. Lucas, - said Raimon, rising from his seat to offer a hearty greeting to both parties following Anne. She nodded a, allowing Raimon to tih the iations.

  -You're the young man who ended up in the waiting room due to an error from my receptionist, and I apologize, - said Gee.

  Raimon waved off the air, trying to calm his heart. He had to secure the tract for Billy, and perhaps in a month, he could ask for photos and autographs.

  -It's a thing of the past. Now, let's leave past problems behind. Only the present matters, and how crucial our future is as entrepreneurs, - said Raimon, them seats.

  Images started to roll on the projector, showg sketches from the Star Wars series. These images resonated with Billy's vision of what the animated Star Wars series could be—details of the es, General Gribus, some Jedi, rescued races, and others unknown to Gee. Although they were only sketches, they were delicately drawn and colored, subtly using bd gold lines.

  -Just a key image representing what Billy envisions for the series. He calls it the e Wars, following a storyline expl what may or may not have happened in the linear history of Star Wars after the events of Luke Skywalker, his adventures in renewing the Jedi Order, and the end of the Empire, - expined Raimon iail.

  -I see, - said Lucas, keeping his thoughts to himself.

  -The proposal from ma is to purchase a lise for ten years for 25 million. We guarantee Mr. Lucas as a producer, and director if necessary, with a sary. Additionally, we offer 20% of the marketing on profits, but everything produced will be avaible for Lux Animation without promising chts. The iment for ten years includes three films at the agreed-upon price, a secutive series, and three animated series aimed at increasing Star Wars exposure. We also promise an additional iment for the creation of a Star Wars museum, which will be owned by Lux Animation. Mr. Lucas will receive 8% of the profits, as this will be used to pave the way in Pop culture, - read Raimon from the agreemely as they had pnned.

  Anticipating a favorable response, he added, - I don't agree, - said Lucas, throwing Raimon into the challenging task of prehending Gee's decision.

  The following hours sisted of agreements and disagreements betweewo parties, with no crete agreement reached. Another date was set for further iations.
