From abandoned baby to CEO
Chapter 684: Calm down
Less than half an hour after hanging up the phone, Mr. Li's car arrived at the hotel.
The first thing they said when they met was, "Writer Sun, do you want to see the night view of the Magic City?"
Sun Xue naturally wanted it very much.
She understood that seeing the night view was just an excuse, and the subsequent discussion of cooperation was the key point.
Without waiting for her to answer, Mr. Li opened the car door and said very attentively, "Get in the car. I'll take you somewhere."
Mr. Li looks elegant and gentle, but he drives a Rolls-Royce Phantom long-wheelbase sedan, which is very domineering.
The slender black body of the car shuttled through the night. The interior decoration was luxurious and jaw-dropping. It was the first time for Sun Xue to sit in such a car, so she felt a little restrained.
One look at this car and you'll know the owner is wealthy.
Sun Xue thought to herself, such a rich boss still had to negotiate with her for a mere one or two million in copyright fees.
It really proves the saying that the richer the boss, the smarter he is.
Mr. Li enthusiastically introduced her to the scenery along the way, and the topic never touched upon copyright fees.
The car finally stopped next to the Bund in Magic City. Mr. Li took Sun Xue to the top of Magic City’s landmark building, the 468-meter-high Magic City Building.
Standing on the top floor, through the bright floor-to-ceiling windows of the luxury hotel, you can have a panoramic view of the charming night view of the Magic City.
"It's so beautiful!" Sun Xue couldn't help but sigh.
I have been to Magic City twice, but each time I was just a quick visitor. I have never been able to relax and take in the night view of the entire Magic City like today.
Mr. Li walked slowly to Sun Xue with two glasses of red wine and said with a smile, "Beautiful scenery, good wine, and beautiful woman, perfect."
Sun Xue joked, "Mr. Li, you are too kind. I am just an ordinary northern woman. Since ancient times, beauties have come from the south of the Yangtze River."
Mr. Li flattered her without any hesitation, "Writer Sun's beauty is a charm that radiates from the inside out, which is beyond the reach of ordinary beautiful women."
Sun Xue smiled and said, "Boss Li, you really know how to praise people!"
After a few jokes, the atmosphere suddenly became relaxed.
Mr. Li gently shook the wine glass in his hand and smiled at Sun Xue who was concentrating on appreciating the night view, "Writer Sun, do you want to settle down in Magic City and develop your creative career?"
Sun Xue joked, "I want to, but unfortunately I don't have the ability."
Mr. Li's wise eyes sparkled, "Writer Sun, you are so outstanding. As long as we cooperate for a long time, it won't be difficult for you to settle down here."
"Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Li."
President Li moved closer to Sun Xue and spoke softly, "I admire your talent. Come to my company and be my executive screenwriter. If you find it tiring, you can be my secretary. A house and a car are not a problem..."
Sun Xue immediately understood the deep meaning of Mr. Li’s words.
I thought to myself, who do you think I, Sun Xue?
You can drive a luxury car, live in a luxury house, and even have girls on your left and right.
However, she didn't want to bow down to his money for the sake of vanity.
Although I am very short of money at the moment, it is impossible for me to get it in that way.
Sun Xue expressed her opinion in a cold tone, "I'm not good at being a screenwriter, and I can't be a secretary even more."
Mr. Li looked a little embarrassed, "Forget it, we can't force you to do anything." Then he changed the subject, "Mr. Sun, how are you thinking about the copyright issue?"
Sun Xue was stunned. It seemed that the topic had finally come to the point.
She replied calmly, "A friend of a friend of mine is the CEO of a film and television company in Jiangbei City. Ten minutes after you finished your call, my friend called me. I plan to fly to Jiangbei City tomorrow to discuss cooperation with him."
Mr. Li was stunned when he heard this. "Mr. Sun, you also know that our Jiahe Film and Television Company is a star in the industry. If you want to cooperate, I advise you to choose a big company like us."
Sun Xue did not refute Mr. Li's words, and said calmly, "Nowadays, domestic film and television companies are flourishing, and my friend said that his friend's company is also very strong."
Since Mr. Li asked her out to discuss cooperation, she must seize the initiative.
Only in this way can we achieve the greatest benefits.
For her now, even if she could just get an extra 10,000 yuan, it would be able to solve many practical problems at hand.
Their family is no longer the same as it used to be.
In the past, ten thousand yuan might not even be enough to cover a family’s monthly expenses.
However, ten thousand yuan now is enough to support a family for several months.
"Writer Sun, what is the name of your friend's film and television company?"
Mr. Li asked abruptly with a businessman's shrewd look in his eyes.
Sun Xue was stunned for a moment, but quickly remained calm, "Well... it's not convenient to disclose this, I hope Mr. Li can understand."
Mr. Li opened his mouth but did not pursue the topic any further.
The atmosphere suddenly became dull, and both of them had their own thoughts.
Sun Xue warned herself in her heart that she must keep calm and let the other party speak first.
The last negotiation with Mr. Huang was caused by my momentary impulse, which led to the passive situation.
This time, she couldn't make the same mistake again.
She pretended to be indifferent and fixed her eyes on the night outside the window.
There was silence for a full minute, and Mr. Li finally couldn't help but break the silence.
"Writer Sun, it is fate that we met in such a vast sea of people. I have always been a generous person. What is your target price? Just be straightforward."
It seemed that the cunning Mr. Li wanted to test her tone.
"Two million." She blurted out without thinking.
She withdrew her gaze from the night and fixed it on Mr. Li's face, her voice decisive and forceful.
Mr. Li showed an elusive smile at the corner of his mouth and shook his head slightly, "Writer Sun, don't joke around. The copyright fee for online novels has never been this high."
Sun Xue's expression became serious, and she gave Mr. Li a serious analysis. "I am a well-known writer in Lunjian Book Alliance, with millions of fans. You also understand what such influence means."
"My subject matter is innovative and unconventional. I believe that if it is adapted into a film or TV series, the market response will be good. It is not impossible for the film to be a big hit. By then, you will definitely make a lot of money."
Mr. Li smacked his lips and said, "It's not that easy. It's already pretty good to make a million or eight hundred thousand."
"Mr. Li is too modest!"
After some negotiation, Mr. Li finally gave in and said, "One million and five hundred thousand, and we will sign the contract tomorrow."
"One million, eight hundred thousand. We'll sign the contract tomorrow and transfer the money." Sun Xue refused to give in.
"You want the payment tomorrow? It's so urgent. You also know that funds are actually very tight in our industry." Mr. Li looked aggrieved.
"I am going to invest in a project now. If I didn't need the money urgently, I would definitely not agree to this price. But we will have to cooperate for a long time in the future, so I have to give it up reluctantly."
Mr. Li frowned and fell into deep thought.
Sun Xue pressed on, "Mr. Li, if you can agree now, we can sign the contract tomorrow and I will push my friend's side. What do you think?"
