Chapter Sixty-Seven: The Contract and the Good News Come

"Really, I wanted to go to Aunt Lin. It's not up to anyone to report it like this. Wang Li said with some dissatisfaction after Li Le hung up the phone.

Aunt Lin that Wang Li said is Jin Yong's wife Lin Leyi, and what she wants to do with Aunt Lin is to learn a few good dishes from Lin Leyi. Yesterday I told Lin Leyi that, Wang Li was moved. Wang Li has such thoughts for her, it is all because she has been by Li Le's side since she arrived in Hong Kong, and Wang Li doesn't want to always follow Li Le, because Li Le also has to do his own things. Originally, after visiting Jin Yong, Wang Li felt that she usually didn't follow Li Le, so she went to Jin Yong's house. It's just that now her thoughts are obviously not going to happen.

Wang Li didn't want to always follow Li Le's side because she felt that she couldn't help Li Le in her business, and she really wanted to do something for Li Le. Wang Li felt that she couldn't help Li Le much, so she took good care of Li Le in life.

Li Le was also happy in his heart when he heard Wang Li's words, and he asked with a smile: "What are you going to do when you go to find Aunt Lin?" ”

Wang Li's face flushed slightly, and she calmed down and said, "What to do?" It's not okay for people to chat with Aunt Lin! Aunt Lin invited me to accompany her yesterday. Mr. Cha usually goes to work, and only Aunt Lin is alone at home with the maid, and she also needs someone to talk to. After all, Wang Li was a little thin-faced, and she didn't dare to say her true intentions.

Li Le knew that what Wang Li said was just an excuse, but he knew that he was restrained and did not tease Wang Li again. After thinking about it, he said, "You don't have to worry, it will calm down in a few days, and you can go to Aunt Lin if you want to." Li Le thought in his heart that the news of their visit to Jin Yong's house would pass soon. After all, no one has responded, and with the fast-paced life in Hong Kong, the previous news will definitely die down soon.

Wang Li listened to Li Le's words, her face was slightly ruddy and nodded. Although Li Le didn't say much, Wang Li knew that Li Le must have guessed her thoughts. There is a little Wang Li who feels very helpless, her mind always can't hide from Li Le, and she is guessed by Li Le every time.

guessed Wang Li's thoughts, it was not that Li Le could read minds, but that Li Le had too much of a past. With rich experience and an understanding of Wang Li, Li Le guessed Wang Li's thoughts. If it were someone else, Li Le wouldn't dare to say that he could guess the other party's mind every time, he could only say that he could guess most of them.

Not to mention how Li Le and Wang Li were in the hotel, after Jin Yong hung up the phone with Li Le on the other side, he called his secretary into the office. Jin Yong's secretary is called Huang Shengxin, a middle-aged man who has been helping with Jin Yong for many years. For the calm Huang Shengxin, Jin Yong also trusts him very much.

"Mr. Cha, what do you command?" As soon as Huang Shengxin entered the office, he asked respectfully.

In Ming Pao, the whole company refers to Mr. Kim Yongcha rather than Jin Yongcha's position in Ming Pao. After all, Jin Yong's achievements in novels surpass everything, and out of respect for Jin Yong, everyone calls him Mr. Cha. Even outside, many people call Mr. Jin Yongcha instead of his pen name Jin Yongcha and other titles.

"Xiao Huang, you go down and prepare the official contract for the serialization of Zhu Xian." After speaking, Jin Yong paused for a moment, and then said: "Prepare two, one contract of 500 words per thousand words, and the other will increase the remuneration a little, you can do it yourself." When you're ready, you go to the Four Seasons Hotel in Kowloon to find Li Le, the author of these, and give him a contract of 500 words for 1,000 words first. If he's not satisfied with the pay, you come up with another contract. ”

Regarding Jin Yong's arrangement, Huang Shengxin was surprised in his heart, but he didn't ask more, and said, "Then I'll go down and prepare now." ”

Jin Yong no longer looked at Huang Shengxin, nodded and said, "Go!" People are waiting at the hotel! ”

Huang Shengxin listened to Jin Yong's words, didn't say anything, and quickly quit Jin Yong's office.

The formal contract for the serialized novels of Ming Pao has its own model, and there is a template in the company, and as long as the remuneration is added, the author signs and the Ming Pao signature can be completed. Therefore, Jin Yong's arrangement is a very simple matter for Huang Shengxin, and Huang Shengxin is worried about what kind of person Li Le, the author of Zhuxian, is, and whether he can successfully let Li Le sign.

Huang Shengxin also has an idea in his heart, in his opinion, without a contract, Li Le can let Zhu Xian be serialized in Ming Pao, Li Le and Jin Yong should know each other. But Jin Yong asked him to prepare two contracts with different pay, which made Huang Shengxin puzzled. With a faint worry, Huang Shengxin drove alone with the contract towards the place where Jin Yong said.

When Huang Shengxin arrived at the Four Seasons Hotel, the hotel contacted Li Le, and Huang Shengxin was allowed to go.

Li Le and Wang Li did not leave the room, because the presidential suite they lived in was used for the reception of guests outside. It's much better to sign in the suite than in the lobby, at least Li Le won't worry about being photographed by reporters. Because Li Lezhi said that the person arranged by Jin Yong must be regarded as a relatively weighty person, and he should attract the attention of reporters. Although the Four Seasons Hotel has good protection measures, the reporter is simply pervasive.

Soon, Li Le welcomed Huang Shengxin into the room. Huang Shengxin, who entered the presidential suite, was also amazed in his heart, and he was also very envious of being able to live in the five-star presidential suite. Don't look at Huang Shengxin as Jin Yong's secretary, he is usually more powerful and powerful, but he is still a part-time worker in the end. His salary is far from supporting his luxury life.

Huang Shengxin has been able to follow Jin Yong for many years, and his temperament is good enough, and he quickly calmed down.

He followed behind Li Le with a briefcase, and also introduced himself: "Hello Mr. Li Le, I am Mr. Cha's secretary, and I am here to send you a contract." Huang Shengxin spoke Mandarin, and he thought that Li Le, who was from the mainland, could not speak Cantonese. Like Zhou Xingping, his Mandarin skills are really not good.

After listening to Huang Shengxin's words, Li Le said with a smile in Cantonese: "Mr. Huang, you just speak Cantonese, and I can also speak Cantonese." ”

Huang Shengxin paused for a moment, but he quickly reacted and said, "Let Mr. see it and laugh." This time, he used the Cantonese he was familiar with.

Li Le didn't dwell on it much, and after inviting Huang Shengxin to sit down, Li Le said, "There's nothing to entertain you." After a pause, he said, "Bring the contract!" I've signed it, and you'll have to go back and pay for it. ”

There is nothing strange about Li Le's direct Huang Shengxin, after all, Hong Kong people rarely beat around the bush in their work. After listening to Li Le's words, Huang Shengxin opened the briefcase, took out a document inside, handed it to Li Le and said, "This is the contract we have prepared, sir, see if you have any comments." ”

Li Le did not shy away from Huang Shengxin, and opened the document to read the key points. On the contract, as long as it is written that Li Le will be paid 500 words for 1,000 words, and Li Le promises to only serialize Zhu Xian in Ming Pao in Hong Kong. The contract is very normal, and there is no change from what Li Le said to Jin Yong before. After reading it, Li Le directly took out the pen he brought with him and signed the contract.

"The contract is signed, you can take it back!" Li Le, who had signed the contract, handed the contract back to Huang Shengxin and said loudly.

Huang Shengxin took the contract a little stunned, he didn't expect Li Le to be so direct, so he signed it after a rough look. Originally, Huang Shengxin thought that he had prepared two contracts and had to negotiate the contract with Li Le! "Do you have any other comments on the contract, sir?" Huang Shengxin asked after taking the contract, but after asking, Huang Shengxin regretted it in his heart, because Li Le had signed, what else could he say.

Li Le looked at Huang Shengxin seriously, and suddenly smiled: "No, is there anything else?" ”

Huang Shengxin smiled awkwardly, he was also relieved now. He didn't think much about it and said: "There is one more thing, if Mr. has a bank card from Hong Kong and Hong Kong, you can leave it to us, and we will pay you in the future." If it is a bank in the mainland, we can also help you transfer money, and we will notify you at that time. ”

After listening to Huang Shengxin's explanation, Li Le nodded and handed over the account of HSBC Hong Kong to Huang Shengxin.

After Huang Shengxin finished everything, he also got up and said goodbye and left. For Huang Shengxin, Li Le didn't stay long.

After Huang Shengxin left, Wang Li walked out of the room. Before the two could say anything, the call came again. Li Le picked up the phone and hung up after saying less than three sentences. After that, he smiled and said to Wang Li: "Today is really lively, the good news is coming." "What Li Le received just now was not someone else's call, it was Warner Zhou Xingping. Regarding Zhou Xingping's coming, Li Le felt that the other party was not having any happy events, but it must be because of the serialized events of Zhu Xian, and Li Le felt that it was mostly thick.

"What is the annunciation?" Wang Li asked suspiciously.

Regarding Zhou Xingping's call, Li Le did not hide it, and briefly told Wang Li. After Li Le explained, Wang Li also understood.
