Chapter 62: Beijing, I'm Coming!
Wu Fei sighed, and had to tell the truth: "Yes, I actually want to invite you back, and I find more and more that the design department can't hold up the faΓ§ade without you." β
Xia Qing was a little surprised, she didn't think she was the best in terms of design, and she hadn't done design for more than a year, and now if she picked it up again, I'm afraid it would be a little unfamiliar. Xia Qing said: "Mr. Wu, thank you for trusting me, but I haven't done design for a long time, and my hands are raw, and my current situation is not suitable for the current graphic design industry." β
Wu Fei was surprised, "No, aren't you?" You used to do so well, how can you say give up and give up?"
"Actually, I'm not really into designing, I like to write books more now, and I like writing more than that. I'm sorry, but you can choose another talent. β
Wu Fei couldn't figure out if Xia Qing really preferred writing or if it was just an excuse for refusal. "That's a shame, you're really talented in graphic design and you shouldn't give up," he said. β
"Mr. Wu, I understand the kindness, I'm really not suitable now. β
Wu Fei sighed deeply and said, "Okay, I won't force you, you can think about it yourself, if you want to come back one day, just call me." β
"Thank you, Mr. Wu. β
Hanging up the phone, Xia Qing was in deep thought, the past was like smoke, and it was really unbearable to look back. Xia Qing was full of spirit when he first entered the Red Banner, and he was deeply respected by Wu Fei, if that incident did not happen, Xia Qing would probably still be working in the Red Banner, and perhaps become the senior leader of the design department. Perhaps, everything today will be rewritten.
The next day, Xia Qing suddenly received a call from the editor of Beijing Yuekai Culture Company, who told her that the official signing ceremony for the film and television adaptation copyright of her work "Marriage Bed Don't Play with Fire" was scheduled for three days later, and asked her to arrive in Beijing the day after tomorrow.
Xia Qing was very happy, this matter was finally about to settle, she didn't expect it to go so smoothly. She began to travel to Beijing. After buying the air ticket, she called Zhang Fang and told Zhang Fang about this happy event, Zhang Fang said: "Xia Qing, after the TV series is broadcast, you will become a celebrity, congratulations!"
"Fang, I should thank you, I can say that you are my guide. β
"Even if I'm the leader, you have to be talented. β
Xia Qing thought movingly, Zhang Fang's friend she didn't make in vain.
Xia Qing took a China Southern Airlines flight from Qinglin Airport to Beijing at 5 o'clock in the afternoon. Two hours later, she landed at Beijing Capital Airport, where two staff members from Yuekai Culture Company drove to pick her up, invited her to dinner, and then took her to the hotel, where she checked into a three-star hotel.
Editor Yang Nan was already waiting for her at the hotel gate. Although Xia Qing and Yang Nan often interact with each other online and have known each other for almost a year, this is the first time they have met.
Yang Nan is a post-eighty-five boy, with a very elegant temperament, with fine skin and tender flesh like a girl. Seeing that Xia Qing was still a little shy, looking at this weak little boy with a scholarly temperament, Xia Qing generously stretched out his hand to him: "Hello, Xiao Yang!"
Yang Nan stretched out his hand and shook Xia Qing's hand, Xia Qing felt that his hand was as soft as a girl's hand. Yang Nan helped Xia Qing carry the suitcase, and the two went to Xia Qing's room together.
When he arrived at the room, after Xia Qing settled down, Yang Nan said to Xia Qing: "Sister Xia Qing, the signing ceremony of the film and television adaptation rights between you and Tianlang Group is scheduled for 11 o'clock tomorrow morning, on the tenth floor of the North Convention and Exhibition Center Building. β
Xia Qing hurriedly wrote down the time and place on the hotel's small stationery.
Yang Nan chatted with Xia Qing for a while and prepared to leave. Xia Qing took out a packaged gift box from the suitcase and handed it to Yang Nan: "Xiao Yang, this is my gift to you, it is a small heart of mine, thank you for your support and help, please accept it." β
Yang Nan was very surprised, and he excused himself: "No, no, I can't accept it, how can I accept your things?"
"You're welcome, it's just a watch, which I brought from Hong Kong to a friend. In order to thank you for helping me, please accept it, this is my heart. β
Yang Nan happened to lack a watch, and when he heard that it was a watch, he was tempted, it seems that Xia Qing is very understanding. Xia Qing looked at Yang Nan encouragingly, and Yang Nan took the gift box with a red face.
Early the next morning, Xia Qing was waiting for Yang Nan downstairs in the hotel at half past nine o'clock. Yang Nan also came on time to pick up Xia Qing and go to the Northern Convention and Exhibition Center.
In a conference room on the 10th floor of the North Convention and Exhibition Center Building in Beijing.
Xia Qing and editor Yang Nan arrived at the conference room on time at 11 o'clock, and Mr. Yu, president of Tianlang Group, arrived with two assistants 15 minutes later. Yu is about 45 years old, about 173CM tall, not fat or thin, ruddy complexion, big ears and round ears, bright eyes, plump nose, big mouth and thick lips, at first glance he is a person who is keen on bed exercise.
Seeing Xia Qing and Yang Nan, Mr. Yu said apologetically: "I'm really embarrassed to keep the two of you waiting for a long time." β
Xia Qing and Yang Nan stood up with a smile, Xia Qing took the initiative to stretch out his hand, "Mr. Yu is good!"
Mr. Yu hurriedly held Xia Qing's hand: "You are the great writer Ms. Xia Qing, right?"
"Yes. Xia Qing said with a smile, she felt that Mr. Yu was holding her hand very strongly.
"I've only heard your name before, but when I saw it today, it really made Shu's eyes shine, and he really looked good. β
Xia Qing broke free of his hand, and then sat down elegantly, "Mr. Yu has won the prize." β
Mr. Yu smiled and said, "Ms. Xia, I have read your book five times, and I personally like it very much." My two partners have also watched it, and they have agreed on the adaptation, and I want to make it into a 30-episode TV series. β
Xia Qing felt very happy, she smiled lightly, and two pear wine vortices appeared at the corners of her mouth, "Thank you for your cultivation." β
Mr. Yu suddenly found that Xia Qing was a bit like the movie star Xu Qing, Xu Qing had taken over his movies, he had a good impression of Xu Qing, and slowly fell in love, but he never dared to hope to be able to take her into his arms, thinking like this, his mind was a little trance.
Mr. Yu's two assistants, a man and a woman, probably saw that something was wrong, and they exchanged glances. The female assistant hurriedly said, "Mr. Yu, shouldn't we exchange some details of the contract with Ms. Xia Qing?"
Mr. Yu seemed to suddenly realize his gaffe, and hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, now let's talk about the contract in detail."
The female assistant took out two contracts and handed them to Mr. Yu and Xia Qing respectively, "Please read the content of the contract first, and you can sign it if you have no objections." β
Xia Qing picked up the contract and looked at it seriously, and Mr. Yu was also looking at it, but he also peeked at Xia Qing while reading the contract, as if it was the goddess Xu Qing in his heart sitting opposite him.
