Chapter 78 Xiang Family Brothers
Lena led a slightly obese woman in her forties to the living room.
Linna introduced Zhang Keqiang and Jackie Chan; "This is my cousin, 'Mary.'"
Zhang Keqiang and Jackie Chan politely stood up from the sofa.
Zhang Keqiang, who was smiling, said; "Miss Mary, it's a pleasure to meet you, please be seated."
A few people said a few polite words and sat down one after another.
Mary asked excitedly; "Mr. Zhang, I heard that your magical novel [Harry Potter] is about to be completed." "Yes, I'm about to finish the first part, I don't know what conditions Miss Mary can give," Zhang Keqiang said with a smile.
Mary asked, surprised; "Mr. Zhang, do you mean there is a second step?" "That's what I plan, if this novel sells well and can bring me benefits, I will continue to write, if it doesn't sell well, then forget it, I don't want to waste my efforts, let's use the first part to test the water first. Miss Mary, as you probably know, I need a lot of money right now, and if it doesn't meet my requirements, I won't write a second one." Zhang Keqiang said seriously. "Mr. Zhang, you are really different from other Chinese, you are very straightforward, let me tell you the truth, this novel of yours, now many readers outside are looking forward to it, this novel will definitely sell well, although my publishing house is not big, if you can hand it over to my publishing house for publication, I will definitely go all out."
Mary said and took out a contract from her briefcase and handed it to Zhang Keqiang, "This is a contract, you can see if you are satisfied, if you are not satisfied, I will take it back and change it." “
Zhang Keqiang didn't know anything about this, he didn't even look at the contract when he took it, and handed the contract to Jackie Chan Road next to him; "Brother Jackie Chan, you can help me take a look, if the conditions are possible, give it to Miss Mary's publishing house."
Jackie Chan did not refuse, took the contract, and looked at it seriously.
Zhang Keqiang asked with a smile; "Miss Mary, why do you think this novel must be a big hit, I don't know what basis there is." "Mr. Zhang, don't you know? Since Ling Mei told the story of the novel [Harry Potter] at the press conference, it has attracted many readers, and now newspapers and TV are reporting it, according to the survey, this novel is very popular, and there is no need to publicize it, as long as it is published, it will definitely be a big hit. I have been working in a publishing house for so many years, this situation is rare, the most important thing is that Mr. Zhang, you write this novel so vividly, even I am a fan of this novel. Mary said with admiration.
"Thank you, Miss Mary, for the compliment, if there is no problem with the contract, I would love to cooperate with you. Anyway, you are still my American advisor, Cousin Linna, there is an old Chinese saying that 'fertile water does not flow into the fields of outsiders," Zhang Keqiang said politely.
Mary listened to Zhang Keqiang's words and looked at Lina gratefully.
Linna, who was sitting on the side, didn't say anything, but also smiled slightly, and said in her heart; "Zhang's still quite good at being a person! It's worthy of Miss Ben's running before and after. “
Jackie Chan also finished reading the contract, he slowly raised his head, put the contract on the table, and said; "There is no problem with the brother's contract, and the conditions given are very generous, but I have a question, brother, is your novel not available in Chinese?" The contract does not say that there is a Chinese version. ”
Without waiting for Zhang Keqiang to speak, Mary hurriedly said; "This is an oversight on our part, because this is a novel with a Western theme, and we don't know if the Chinese like to read it or not."
Zhang Keqiang said confidently; "Don't worry, Miss Mary, I am Chinese, I know our Chinese people very well, they are very receptive, as long as the novel is really well written, they will definitely accept it."
Mary heard Zhang Keqiang say this, "Mr. Zhang, I will draft a new contract when I go back, and you can mention any conditions at any time." ”
Zhang Keqiang looked at Jackie Chan.
Jackie Chan said to Zhang Keqiang; "My brother's contract is written very carefully, as long as they have the right to publish, you can make your own decisions about everything else, and the most important thing is that if you are not satisfied with anything, you can terminate the contract at any time."
"Very well, Miss Mary hopes we have a good time working together." Zhang Keqiang said happily.
・・・・・・・・・・
A hall in New Ngee An, Kowloon Peninsula, Hong Kong.
A fierce-looking middle-aged man slammed the teacup on the table to the ground, and heard a 'pop' sound.
He looked at a middle-aged man with glasses with fire in his eyes and said loudly; "Xiang Huasheng, you did a good job, what does that idiot woman who went to the United States with Jackie Chan have to do with you?"
Xiang Huasheng was extremely aggrieved; "Brother Ten, what's wrong with Hu Lina? You can make it clear, early in the morning I don't know."
"Don't call me brother, I can't afford it, I want to call you brother to Huaqiang, you still feel wronged, I received a call from the United States early this morning, saying, 'The property of Xiangjia in the United States has been seized by the U.S. government, and we suspect that our Xiangjia has something to do with terrorist organizations, do you know why?"
It turned out that the man who spoke was a very fierce looking man, that is, Xiang Huaqiang, the boss of New Ngee An, and Xiang Huasheng who wore glasses, and their father 'Xiangqian' was a major general of the Kuomintang. Later, Xiang Huaqiang took over his father's position, and it can be said that he covered the sky in Hong Kong.
Xiang Huasheng asked suspiciously; "Tenth brother, what does this have to do with Lina? She's just a woman, and she doesn't have such a big ability, if you want to say Jackie Chan, I still believe it. ”
Alas! That idiot woman of Hu Lina, who offended people we can't afford to offend, you know Zhang Keqiang, right? Xiang Huaqiang said.
Xiang Huasheng said with an indifferent face; "What if you offend him, we are still afraid that he will not succeed, if you provoke me, we will spend money to find someone to kill him, by the way, the tenth brother is that Zhang Keqiang?"
Xiang Huaqiang looked at Xiang Huasheng with the eyes of an idiot; "Do you want our Xiang family to be destroyed in your hands, you are willing, don't you know what Zhang Keqiang is doing? Or didn't you see the video on that plane, and some time ago, when he attended a press conference with the President of the United States, didn't you see it? also asked me that Zhang Keqiang, do you take me as an idiot. ”
Hearing Xiang Huaqiang say this, Xiang Huasheng shuddered and said in fear; "Brother Ten, no, you're talking about that Zhang Keqiang, it's impossible, even Hu Lina can't offend him no matter how idiotic she is, besides, isn't there still Jackie Chan!"
"I'm talking about that Zhang Keqiang, your mistress actually scolded Zhang Keqiang's whole family for being pigs. I've also heard, 'Threaten him with us going home.'" ”
Xiang Huaqiang said with a sigh and continued; "You should know that people are not even afraid of terrorist organizations, and they are afraid of our little Xiang family, if this matter is not handled well, our Xiang family is finished. When the time comes, after Zhang Keqiang's Blood Wolf Mercenary Group is established, he will send some people at will, even if it is an assassination, it will be enough for us to drink a pot of Xiangjia, if he comes in person, I estimate that Xiangjia may be uprooted and not a single grass will be left. “
"Don't scare me, 'Brother Ten'. Zhang Keqiang will not work hard because of this little thing." Xiang Huasheng trembled.
Alas! It's not that there is no such possibility, haven't you seen the news report, his concern for his family has exceeded his imagination, if he wants to do something to form a blood wolf mercenary group! What he said at the press conference sounded, what is for world peace, it is all, and people with a clear eye know that he is just for revenge, do you say that such a madman at any cost can we offend? A man like him has reverse scales, and if he touches them, he will die, and his family is his reverse scales, which just happened to make your woman bump into him. So I decided to take you to the United States to personally plead guilty, and I must get his forgiveness, in case the apology is too late, and if something happens to the accident, I will regret it at that time. Xiang Huaqiang said helplessly.
Xiang Huasheng gritted his teeth; "Brother Ten, don't worry, Hu Lina, a dead woman, I will definitely not let her go, the whole thing is an idiot, who is not good to offend a madman, and Jackie Chan is not a good thing, when he returns to Hong Kong, I will make him look good."
Xiang Huaqiang heard what the thirteenth brother said, and when he stretched out his hand, he slapped it in the face. I heard a 'pop' sound coming from the whole hall.
A few younger brothers standing guard outside the door quietly glanced inside, and when they saw Xiang Huasheng being beaten, they thought of the ruthlessness of the two brothers at ordinary times, and they shivered, and immediately turned their heads, as if they didn't see anything.
Xiang Huaqiang looked at the thirteenth brother who was beaten with hatred of iron and steel; "You idiot, now Jackie Chan is different from the past, according to reliable news, Jackie Chan lives in Zhang Keqiang's manor, Zhang Keqiang is also ready to let Jackie Chan play the second male lead in his movie, do you think he is still Jackie Chan who can be pinched as much as you want? Don't put your life on the line, and regret it, it'll be too late. ”
It didn't take long for Xiang Huasheng to react and said very aggrievedly; "Jackie Chan is really a, luck, alas!" Brother Ten: 'You dissipate your anger, I know it's wrong.' ”
Alas! Thirteenth brother, you are not young, look for a woman again, find a smarter, don't look for someone who looks like nonsense, it's an idiot, you can't worry about taking it out, and you're embarrassed, now we are all people with status, and we're not the dwarf mules we used to be, learn from Brother Ten, look at the women of Brother Ten, that one is not a ghost and a ghost, you are looking at the woman you are looking for, one is more stupid than the other, and it is useless. Xiang Huaqiang said politely.
Xiang Huasheng was not convinced; "Brother Ten, don't you know Hu Lina, that little lady is good at bed" said and sighed, reluctant to say; Alas! If it weren't for this, I would be really reluctant, by the way, Brother Ten heard that a little girl named Shu Qi came to the company and it was also very good, can you let me ・・・・・・・・・・ first
Before Xiang Huasheng finished speaking, he scolded Xiang Huaqiang; "Mom, I'll tell you the thirteenth, don't keep thinking about this, solve this matter first, if it is solved, I will let that girl accompany you, if it is not solved well, you will be good-looking."
The tenth brother knew when he would leave for the United States, and asked Huasheng.
Xiang Huaqiang said; "I'll leave in the afternoon, I've already booked my plane ticket."
