Back at Ghibli, the atmosphere in the conference room was completely different.

As soon as Fang Yan entered the door, he felt all kinds of eyes stop on his face, curiosity, respect, and a kind of intimacy. Soon, Toshio Suzuki also returned to the conference room, and he glanced at Fang Yan deeply.

"I'm sorry for the poor hospitality." He said with a smile. "Let's go ahead and have a meeting."

"Where, where."

At lunchtime, as soon as Fang Yan and the others left, Toshio Suzuki immediately searched for the video of "Walking Street" on YouTube, and the negotiation team ate a boxed lunch in the conference room, watched video projections, and quickly became fascinated by music.

Suzuki no longer had the slightest suspicion about the "Nameless Tavern" company.

He had previously asked for a high license fee of $100 million, which was a gesture of categorical refusal. He has always had doubts, worried that this is a shell company, and there may be some shady background. Now, he adjusts his mindset to see the Nameless Tavern as a partner to work with.

Old man Suzuki has been in the cultural industry all his life and has built an animation kingdom, so he knows the doorway too well. The key factor is always people. With Fang Yan's music at its core, this company can thrive.

"Let's talk about copyright cooperation first, mainly in one sentence......"

"I'm sorry, wait a minute." Qian Ning turned his head and said like a magnifying move. "Yuan Yuan, on!"

"Good!"

Yuan Yuan stood up, took out T-shirt jars from her backpack, put them on the table one by one, and ran to the other side of the table to distribute them to Toshio Suzuki, Shota Hirata and others. T-shirts are prepared early.

Fang Yan thought, Qian Ning's tone of calling Yuan Yuan was a bit like closing the door and letting the dog go.

"This is the best-selling T-shirt?" Suzuki plays with the sleek and rounded metal jar. Gently unwrap it, laboriously pull out the T-shirt, and unfold it in the air. Retro texture, thick and soft material, every detail is amazing.

Fang Yan added: "The packaging is a water cup. ”

Played for a long time.

Keynote's demo isn't enough, you can only experience the good feeling of a t-shirt when you actually hold it in your hand. Toshio Suzuki was immediately intrigued and said, "This T-shirt looks like it was made in our factory." ”

"No, from design to manufacturing, it's all Huaxia."

"You want to put a Ghibli painting on a T-shirt?" Suzuki asked. He thought it was a good idea.

Qian Ning hopes to cooperate with the Ghibli brand to jointly launch the second edition of the T-shirt, which will be sold in Huaxia and Yueben. In Ghibli, Ghibli has its own authorized stores, online channels, and a large number of visitors to the Ghibli Museum.

She aimed at the market of Saymoto, and through the cooperation with Ghibli, she sold T-shirts to Saymoto.

“……”

"I think so." Toshio Suzuki said, sighing a little. "I really became the person in the Peach Blossom Land that you Huaxia said, hiding in Ghibli's castle for too long, I can't imagine that the world has changed so much."

Then there is the issue of licensing fees and sharing ratios.

Channing's proposal was for the nameless tavern to produce it, with Ghibli providing the rights and acting exclusively as an agent for the T-shirts at 70 percent of the selling price. That is, Ghibli receives 30% of the gross profit. In China, for every T-shirt sold, Ghibli gets a 25 percent share of the total.

"Based on the Ghibli Museum's channels, if you only sell 100 T-shirts a day for 300 days a year, you can make a profit of $1 million a year. In fact, sales will be much more than 100 pieces. Channing said.

"No, you can't."

"What?"

"I can't accept such harsh conditions at all." Old man Suzuki said with a smile. "Maybe one day, Ghibli will go out of business and the stories we create will be forgotten...... But not now. In my mind, Ghibli's IP wouldn't be so worthless. ”

"What do you think?"

"Ghibli entrusts your foundry with the manufacture of T-shirts, pays for patents, manufactures, and that's it. We are willing to purchase each T-shirt for 4,000 yen, which is $36, CIF price. ”

The entire negotiation was led by Qian Ning, and Fang Yan sat on the side and listened without speaking. He understood that Toshio Suzuki had taken a fancy to the design of the T-shirt. 4,000 yen, which is about 250 Chinese coins.

Channing shook his head.

"4,500 yen." Toshio Suzuki said.

Shake one’s head.

“5000。”

"I want to make a point." Channing said. "In this T-shirt, in addition to the IP of Ghibli, it also contains the brand value of the nameless tavern, although we are still small in scale, but the influence is not small."

"I know."

"If you don't agree with the value of the Nameless Tavern, then it's unlikely that we'll work together."

“……”

The main disagreement between the two sides is the price. Ghibli wanted to pay only 5,000 yen and not be kidnapped by a nameless tavern. However, Channing asked for a leading cooperation, and the FOB price of T-shirts should be set at more than 9,000 yen.

There is no way to talk about it.

In the silence, there were only a few coughs.

Toshio Suzuki brought up the first collaboration, and Ghibli was willing to pay $10,000 for the sentence that Momoto Iwa. This sentence is a subject, and Fang Yan reserves the right to publish, authorship, and the integrity of the work and the right to modify.

Qian Ning shook his head and said, "We don't sell it." ”

"What?"

"It's not for sale. Think of something else. ”

“……”

Toshio Suzuki was really angry this time. This girl is simply unreasonable, and she refuses to cooperate just because the price of the T-shirt is not agreed? He sat up straight and said, "Sentence copyright, Ghibli peripherals, they're two different things. Not to be confused. And about sentences, we had a verbal agreement before. ”

"No, no, it was supposed to be two things, but you turned them into one thing." Channing said seriously. "Why do you buy this sentence if you don't agree with the value of the Nameless Tavern?"

Suzuki held back his anger and said, "The day before yesterday, Miyazaki and Fang Yan already had an agreement, and this sentence is ours!" You must know that at the beginning, Mr. Fang Yan was supposed to give it away for free! ”

"It used to be private, but now it's not. Like Mr. Miyazaki, Fang Yan's creations belong to the company. ”

"You ......" Toshio Suzuki wanted to say that Qian Ning was a scoundrel, but finally held back. He turned to Fang Yan again: "Mr. Fang Yan, this female president of your company is really unreasonable. Can we talk about it alone? ”

All eyes were on Fang Yan.

"Isn't it okay?"

"Why?"

"Channing is the CEO of the company...... I have to listen to her. ”

"I remind you, this company is yours personally, and you don't want to be at the mercy of a woman."

"Mr. Suzuki is not right. This company doesn't belong to me, it's still owned by many friends. Fang Yan said with a smile.

“……”

"I did, however, say before that I would give the sentence to Mr. Miyazaki for free. I don't have any strings attached. The sentence was given to Mr. Miyazaki. ”

"This ......" Toshio Suzuki was surprised, he didn't expect Fang Yan to speak so well. He smiled, though a little incredulously.

"Smack!"

Qian Ning was very angry, glared at Fang Yan fiercely, closed the notebook suddenly, and walked out expressionlessly. Her black skirt flashed outside the room. Fang Yan, Yuan Yuan, and Feng Lu were all stunned.

Suzuki chuckled inwardly. This CEO is too strong to tolerate the slightest disagreement from others. He likes to see the infighting between the CEO and major shareholders. He said, "Thank you, Fang Jun. I respect those who keep their promises. ”

Fang Yan looked out the window and said to Yuan Yuan, "You talk to the old man for a while." ”

"Yes, yes."

Fang Yan chased after him.

Channing stood in front of Ghibli, basking in the sun. Nothing is enough, there is more than failure, and nothing is understood. She secretly scolded Fang Yan. The tiredness of yesterday has come back to the depths.

Fang Yan smiled and asked, "Are you angry?" ”

“……”

"Don't be angry."

"I'm resigning." Channing said. She wanted to be more reasonable, but when she said this, she carried a deep resentment, she didn't like herself like this.

"Why did you resign, didn't you have a good conversation just now?"

"You still know!"

"Forehead ......"

Qian Ning turned his head and said angrily: "It was supposed to be negotiated!" Toshio Suzuki has backed down! Do you know how important a partnership with Ghibli is to the company and how much profit it can bring to the company every year? My Neighbor Totoro, Spirited Away, Witch Courier ...... Do you understand how influential Ghibli is? We are a small company, how difficult is it to sit down with them and talk about cooperation? ”

“……”

Anger burned in her eyes, and Qian Ning said again: "The company wants money but no money, no one wants people, nothing." The only bargaining chip in our hands is this broken sentence you wrote. Otherwise, you think Toshio Suzuki would be so polite to us? I worked so hard to get to Tokyo, and just with your casual words, I gave the sentence to others? ”

"I ......"

"You've disappointed me so much, Fang Yan. You may respect Miyazaki, think he is very old and hard, and want to give him sentences. But you are wrong, this is pure business, Toshio Suzuki is a very professional businessman, do you see no, today's negotiations, Miyazaki did not show up at all! ”

"You ......"

"We are too weak to seize every bit of strength and force each other to cooperate with us. What a huge opportunity this is? We can open up the market through Ghibli, do you understand the value? I don't expect you to help, but you can't hold me back! What right do you have to talk nonsense at such a critical time? ”

Channing gasped loudly.

"Are you done?"

“……”

"Look at you." Fang Yan smiled.

"You! @#￥%&”

Channing is going crazy. She said with a dry mouth, and Fang Yan still smiled, like an idiot. She felt that all her efforts to make a keynote overnight, prepare materials, and all kinds of efforts were in vain. She was disheartened for a while, and her nose was a little sour.

"Go on a tour, go play. I'll go back to Koto tomorrow. I quit. She said. What you said before was right, this matter was originally made by Yuan Yuan alone. Go play......"

"No, it's not."

"Huh?"

"I'm glad you're willing to help become the CEO and run the company. You see, our Lao Liu, Xiaomu, Brother Qin Yun, Wang Yu...... Everybody is convinced. I just think you're working too hard. ”

Qian Ning turned around, turned his back to Fang Yan, and looked down at his shoes. You also know that I work hard.

"But don't you think that the way you talk to the old man Suzuki is a bit aggressive? I think you're too reluctant to do that. ”

"I'm going to be reluctant!"

“……”

This is so familiar. Fang Yan remembered that this was the most classic line that Zhao Min said to Zhang Wuji in "Heaven and Dragon Slayer".

Qian Ning said again: "Wake up, this is not your usual child's game. It's the adult world, it's business. Yuan Yuan is still young, she is qualified to be confused, but you don't. From today onwards, you must learn to take responsibility. Otherwise, your company will never have a future. ”

"You're not the CEO anymore?"

"It's not right, resigned."

"Don't be wrong."

“……”

"What are we going to do without you?"

Fang Yan's tone of this sentence was very childish, completely unserious, and there was a hint of mockery. Deliberately. Qian Ning turned around and said angrily, "You give me a little serious!" ”

"If you don't resign, I'll be serious."

“……”

"Don't quit, don't quit."

It's strange, I'm still angry in my heart, but I want to laugh. This scene was both absurd and stupid, and Qian Ning bit his lip and still snorted for fun.

Fang Yan said with a smile: "Actually, talking about business is not what you think. ”

"Huh?"

"You're so arrogant, it's not necessarily useful."

Truculent.

Qian Ning's anger value just dropped, and it instantly rose to the peak. She glared at Fang Yan and said, "I've always been so arrogant, did you only know today?" ”

“……”

"You know what? I know that I don't care about anything when I bury my head in playing the piano. ”

"I spent 5 years in prison. Actually, I think everyone wants the same thing. It's the same with doing business. It's just that everyone wants to make a little more money and support their families. I met all sorts of people in prison and they were all very nice. So do business...... I should know a little bit about that. ”

Channing didn't speak.

"Business is about dealing with people, you don't have to be so cold. By working with us, Ghibli can make money, and they will agree. Let's go, let's go. Fang Yan said.

Like a spring breeze blowing across the lakeside under the snow-capped mountains, Channing felt warm and comfortable. She began to wonder if she valued this cooperation too much and tightened it too much? However, Fang Yan's words were very light, how could it be so easy to do business.

A little reluctantly walked back, and as soon as he arrived at the door, Qian Ning heard bursts of laughter in the conference room. Yuan Yuan was holding a large coffee cup, smiling, and had already mingled with Toshio Suzuki and his group. The old man Suzuki was full of red light and in a good mood, telling Yuan Yuan the story of his youth in the 1980s.

Everyone is laughing.

What's going on? Channing thought in surprise. From morning to now, the atmosphere has never been so lively.

"Sister, you're back!"

Yuan Yuan waved her little hand. Qian Ning was stunned.
