"I'm going to sign you into my company." When the sweet-looking Chinese girl translated this sentence to Maxim, the other party immediately glared at the boss with those eyes that looked very godly, and then looked at Liu Yufan like an alien, her eyes were full of incredulity!

"That young man from China, that guy, what did he just say? Want to sign yourself into his company? Was he sure he was awake? Looking at the Chinese who looked at him with a calm face and a momentum that was not weaker than himself, Maxim had a feeling of "this world is really crazy".

An unknown Chinese pianist, oh well, he might also have a hellish entertainment company, God knows what kind of company. What did he say? Want to sign yourself into his company? Does he know who he himself is talking to? Does he know how much he will cost to sign up for a year?

Damn, how could I have thought of the idea of signing fees, could it be that I really want to sign that damn contract with him? It's a joke! Maxim felt that this was the biggest joke he had heard so far this year.

Looking at Liu Yufan, Maxim smiled, but there was a hint of pity for seeing abnormal human beings in that smile.

"Is your brain broken? Are you ready for me to sign up for your company? Why are you? Maxim looked at Liu Yufan and said with endless mockery.

"If you don't dare, forget it." Liu Yufan's ridicule of Maxim was unseen. For this crazy guy, he didn't look at it at all. A person like this should be taught a hard lesson!

"I don't dare?" listened to Liu Yufan's words. Maxim felt that this was another big joke. What a joke, he's Maxim, the prince of piano! Faced with a challenge from the piano side. Would he not dare?

"Young man, I understand that you Chinese have a trick called the Radical Method, maybe you are using it now. But it doesn't matter, do you really think I'm going to lose to you? Maxim looked at Liu Yufan and said with a smile, as if everything was under control.

"Hehe, since you're not afraid, why don't you dare to bet with me?" Liu Yufan looked at Maxim and said seriously.

"I don't dare? Hehe. Don't be too confident, lad. When it comes to piano, I'm not afraid of anyone, not even Kissin. But you make that bet, hehe, do you think I'll accept it? Or rather, what proof do you use. You have the strength to sign me? How much are you going to pay me a year? $10,000? Or $20,000? Maxim said mockingly. This remark immediately caused a burst of laughter among Maxim's fans.

Yes, Maxim is a rising superstar in the Western piano world, and he now pays tens of thousands of dollars for each performance. God knows how much the signing fee he will give him a year for DG Records, which he is signing with now. This little oriental man, who looks ordinary, actually dares to open his mouth and is ready to sign Maxim, and he is not afraid of bragging and flashing his tongue!

"Hehe, that's what you're worried about." Liu Yufan said, touched his trouser pocket, took out a piece of paper that was a little crumpled, shook it at Maxim, and said: "Although I hate to use things like money to measure the value of art, but since you have this kind of worry, I will let you rest assured first." It's a cash check for $5 million, and I think you'll probably recognize it as a Swiss bank cashier's check, so you don't have to doubt its authenticity. If you lose, we sign a contract, you sign me Legendary Entertainment for ten years, and this check is yours, how about it? ”

Maxim, who was arrogant just now, couldn't help but stagnate when he saw the cash check in Liu Yufan's hand. No matter how arrogant he is, he also knows that the guy who can casually take out a real check for five million dollars from his body is definitely not an ordinary person! He didn't have to look closely at the check to know it was genuine. I am afraid that no counterfeiting agency in the world can forge a Swiss bank check. …,

"A $500,000 a year signing fee." Maxim's mind flashed through the number, and he couldn't help but be a little moved.

To be honest, although he has some fame now, the contract signed by DG Records with him has a fixed income of not high every year, about only more than 300,000 US dollars per Chinese New Year's Eve. And as soon as this young man made a move, it was such a high price. For a moment, Maxim even thought that even if he did lose this game, it seemed that it would be nothing.

After all, the pianist also has to eat. And as a pop pianist, he eats "youth rice". Don't look at Richard. Clayderman is almost fifty years old, and he's still very popular in the music scene. But that's just one example. Because there are so many popular classics under his hands. However, at present, he does not have some things that he can get his hands on, so the price that this Chinese has set for himself is really high.

Looking at Maxim's hesitant appearance, Liu Yufan's heart was half proud, half sighing. People say that the piano is an elegant art, but the pianist himself may not be just as elegant, or noble. If you want to be high, you must have a foundation, and if you don't have a strong material foundation, what do you use to clear high? This may sound vulgar, but it is true. A dazzling star of tomorrow like Maxim can't help but be tempted in the face of naked material temptations.

"How's it going, have you decided?" Liu Yufan really couldn't bear to see Maxim hesitating there, and decided to add another fire, and said: "If you think such conditions are unacceptable, I can add one more, if you win, I will not only withdraw from the competition, but also give you this check, unconditionally, how about it?" Liu Yufan looked at Maxim with a smile and said.

When these words were translated by Wang Yujia, they were immediately like a bombshell detonating, making the audience uproar again!

Wang Yujia looked at Liu Yufan with the eyes of a madman while translating.

"This guy is crazy! Even if the money is won, it can't be so inappropriate, this game is a $5 million gamble, and it's really unbearable!

"What you said is true?" Maxim looked at Liu Yufan, his eyes flashed, and his sharp eyes pierced his eyes.

"Of course it's true, I, Liu Yufan, don't have the habit of talking nonsense." Liu Yufan looked at Maxim, shrugged his shoulders and said. He found that he had been with Lang Lang for a long time during this time, and he also contracted this problem.

"It turns out that his name is Liu Yufan." Maxim looked at him and repeated in his heart. Then without hesitation, he said loudly: "Okay, I agree with your bet!" ”

"Mr. Maxim, you have to be careful, your future is at stake!" A guy who looked like an economic man next to him had been silent before, but when he saw that Maxim had agreed to such a condition, he immediately became a little anxious.

"Ciel, don't say any more. Although you are my economic person, I think I have the right to decide for myself in this matter. Maxim said in a tone that could not be questioned. Generally speaking, few artists dare to talk to their own economic people like this, but Maxim is a very independent artist, and many times, he doesn't like to be "obedient", so as his economic person, he has to get used to his "bad temper" many times. Only this time, he seemed to have gone too far. As an artist, especially as an artist who has signed a record company, changing jobs is not a matter of fun. The stakes are high, and Mad Hill must persuade Maxim.

It's just that, seeing his reaction, Hill has no other way but to sigh. He had expected this to be the result, and he was just doing his best. "Okay, I'm ready, when are we going to start?" Maxim looked at Liu Yufan and said defiantly. Back in the field he was familiar with, that confidence came back to Maxim. He had already decided that he would teach the guy who didn't know the height of the sky a hard lesson. Thinking of the $5 million check, which would soon be his own, Maxim couldn't help but feel excited. This kind of exciting thing is really wonderful!

"Anytime." Liu Yufan looked at Maxim with a smile and said without giving in at all.

"How can such an interesting thing be without me?" A low, powerful voice rang out, causing everyone to look at the source of the sound.

"Mr. Berezovsky!" Seeing the middle-aged man wearing a gray tweed trench coat, many people exclaimed! Of course, most of the people who recognize him are competitors who participated in the competition. The name Berezovsky, although very famous in the piano world, belongs to the very secluded type in the public eye, except for piano enthusiasts, the average music lover is not familiar with him.

Berezovsky was one of the judges of this year's Liszt Cup, as many of the players present knew. So seeing his appearance, these people were very surprised and a little in awe at the same time. When the contestants saw the judges, they naturally felt a little weird, especially on such an occasion.

"Mr. Berezovsky, we meet again." Liu Yufan said with a smile, and then stepped forward to say hello. Wang Yujia and Lang Lang also stepped forward to say hello.

"Hehe, Liu Yufan, you are really, you can make a lot of noise wherever you go. What, do you have to compete with people again? Berezovsky looked at Liu Yufan and asked with an interesting expression.

"Hehe, here's the thing." Liu Yufan briefly introduced the matter.

"Hehe, that sounds interesting, you really want to sign this young man into your company?" Berezovsky looked at Liu Yufan curiously, as if to see what was in his heart.

"That's right, if I win." Liu Yufan said with a smile.

"Haha, it's funny, let's just do it for you." Berezovsky said. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to (.) to vote for recommendation, monthly pass, your support is my biggest motivation. )
