A private room at the café.

The music is getting softer and gentler.

Xu Shengnan and Lin Xia were chatting.

The content of the conversation is basically some things about the school and the original intention of the creation of the book "That Midsummer".

Although Xu Shengnan doesn't look smiling, he has a unique personal charm, and he often only needs to say a few simple words to make Lin Xia feel a desire to talk.

She didn't seem to have any, and besides, she looked at eye level, and then lowered her head slightly and listened carefully to Lin Xia's every word, nodding from time to time, with attention and appreciation that could not be hidden in the depths of her eyes.

It's a truly amazing feeling......

Xu Shengnan and Li Yanhong are really two completely different people.

Although she showed a bright smile as soon as she met, she was as enthusiastic as the sunshine in summer, but Lin Xia instinctively felt that she had a layer of disguise, especially when talking about contracts, she kept talking about how she would be after cooperating with her, and she seemed to hint at her "luck" between the lines.

Xu Shengnan is different, although her expression is calm, but she does not give people a sense of alienation, she is very willing to talk to herself about creation, and occasionally a few interjections are also talking about her previous literary dreams, which makes people unconsciously find a trace of "confidant" resonance.

Time......

It's like that, and it's going to pass slowly.

Zhang Sheng finished reading the contract.

After reading it, I was a little surprised, and then looked up at Xu Shengnan.

He has met many, many people in his life, and he is used to seeing the deceit of the mall, the sword and the sword......

Under this experience, he felt that the entertainment industry was a palatial but extremely dirty vanity fair, and the contract was full of various "overlord clauses" and condescending.

But after reading Xu Shengnan's contract, he inevitably doubted his judgment in his heart.

Although the contract clause also contains some restrictions on the content of the original author, Zhang Sheng knows that this is a basic clause, which is normal, he asked Chen Zhizhong, a teacher at the school, some copyright authorization contracts a few days ago, and he has also seen many contracts given by copyright companies on the market to some "big authors......

The contract that Xu Shengnan gave Lin Xia is only slightly worse than the contracts of those famous authors, well, in a sense, an author like Lin Xia who has just debuted can't sign such a contract at all.

The surprise in Zhang Sheng's heart gradually turned into a little vigilance.

wondering if he had missed any clauses, after obtaining Xu Shengnan's consent, he sent a screenshot of part of the contract to Mr. Chen Zhizhong in the form of MMS.

After the pass, Zhang Sheng continued to look at the contract seriously.

Subconsciously, he vaguely felt that Xu Shengnan was like a beast hidden in the darkness, which he could not see, but could only feel......

He knew that he had met an opponent.

Xu Shengnan was still chatting with Lin Xia.

The two talked about the future from creation, and Xu Shengnan's words gradually began to increase......

She chatted about the entertainment industry, about future planning, about Hollywood movies, and about foreign countries.

There were many things that Lin Xia had never heard of, but what was an eye-opener, and Lin Xia listened to them with great interest.

Zhang Sheng pondered the contract while observing Xu Shengnan.

In front of Lin Xia, Xu Shengnan seemed to be very simple, and he didn't have any deep scheming, and he was extraordinarily honest......

He had a vague answer in his mind that was not certain.

Wait until half-past eleven......

Teacher Chen Zhizhong replied to Zhang Sheng with a message: [If there are no additional terms, if the copyright is fine, this agreement can be signed! 】。

After reading the text message, Zhang Sheng raised his head.

As Zhang Sheng looked up, Xu Shengnan and Lin Xia's chat stopped, and both of them looked at Zhang Sheng.

"Zhang Sheng, what do you think of this contract?" Lin Xia subconsciously asked.

"If there are no strings attached, this contract is fine." Zhang Sheng replied.

"There is no additional payment to this agreement, and I hope to sign the film and television copyright agreement for "Midsummer That Year" with the greatest sincerity......" Xu Shengnan looked at Lin Xia and Zhang Sheng and replied.

"Sister Shengnan, 500,000 copyright money, I think it may be a little less......"

"500,000 is the first offer the company gave me...... If you take the newcomer's film and television copyright money as an example, it is not a lot, we are not talking about it, the terms that [Shengshi Entertainment] gave you, we can all write into the supplementary agreement, such as the directors, actors, and actresses of this film, as well as Miss Lin Xia's producer requirements......" Xu Shengnan said a lot of things to Zhang Sheng seriously.

"Sister Shengnan, the first time the company gave you an offer of 500,000, then, what about the second time?" Zhang Sheng narrowed his eyes.

"I like to be honest, Mr. Zhang is a smart person, some bends and turns add value, I don't think there is any need to say again, 800,000, 800,000 is our bottom line, if we want another point, it is impossible for us to sign this agreement, this 300,000 is the money I transferred from the entire film project......" Xu Shengnan still remained calm.

Zhang Sheng was silent.

He couldn't hear any emotion from Xu Shengnan's tone, but he was extremely resolute.

Like a machine.

At the same time, he realized that Xu Shengnan was talking about a fixed price, and he didn't mean to make a counteroffer.

He also knew that this price was actually very reasonable, and even Xu Shengnan's very honest price.

This silence lasted for a moment, and Zhang Sheng stared at Xu Shengnan with a smile: "Sister Shengnan, I want to know, why would you give us such a contract and such a price?" I've seen you and Zhang Panpan talk about signing a contract a little before, and at that time, you didn't seem to have this attitude......"

"Everything has its value, and so do people, some are expensive, some are cheap, some are just that, some pearls are dusty, some are some. Some things haven't been signed, I just think it's a job, it's normal, anyone can replace it, but there are some people with great potential, I will cooperate with the greatest sincerity, and if I lose it, I will naturally feel pity......" Xu Shengnan looked at Zhang Sheng and smiled.

Zhang Sheng had been observing her from the moment she entered the door, and although it was vague, she still felt it keenly.

As a matter of fact......

She always carries two contracts in her bag, one drawn up by the company and one drawn up by herself.

She has also been observing Zhang Sheng.

During the observation, she found that Zhang Sheng was very deeply hidden, and it was extremely difficult to analyze what he was thinking from his words and expressions, and even from his body movements.

She thought it was incredible, and then she thought it was funny.

She ended up with her own contract.

"Sister Katsunan, have you investigated us?" Zhang Sheng was silent for a moment before revealing a smile.

"I investigated, I asked Lin Xia to come over today, it was to sign the book "Midsummer That Year", I asked you to come over today, I want to see if we can work together [School Flower] to make this cake bigger......"

"What [school flower]?" Zhang Sheng was still smiling, but his eyes were full of doubt.

"Mr. Zhang, since the signing meeting, you have been operating behind the scenes with the only resources you have, which many people can find out after a little investigation...... At the same time, I know that you are a very good promoter, after the signing meeting, you planned the project of [School Flower], which can not only consolidate and increase the popularity of Lin Xia, but also use her original popularity to operate the whole plate and revitalize the plate, although I don't know what you want to do here, but you are very powerful, you are the most powerful person I have ever seen, and you are also one of the people who know the flow economy, very wonderful! Xu Shengnan looked at Zhang Sheng with great appreciation, and after finishing speaking, there was still a bit of aftertaste in his words.

The smile on Zhang Sheng's face became even brighter.

He felt his cells shaking, a sense of excitement at the head of his opponent.

Perhaps, he really underestimated the people of this world.

But he remained calm.

"Sister Shengnan, how do you want to participate in my project?"

"Mutual benefit, I am behind the scenes, to give you a hand, at the same time, push out a few "school flowers", if appropriate, I want to sign into the company...... [Starlight Future] and [Shengshi Entertainment] are in the leading position, a lot of resources they can't see, I see it! ”

"A C-level newcomer contract? That contract, but it's a sinkhole, I can't do it to deceive my classmates! ”

"No, the C-level newcomer contract is the company's contract, the contract I drafted myself, it is a newcomer training contract, the contract lasts for two years, within two years, we are responsible for the basic salary, resources, if it is launched, continue to renew the contract, if it is not launched, you can terminate the contract by yourself......"

"Sister Shengnan, I found that you have been emphasizing the contract between the company and yourself, are you very entitled to this company, or are you ......" Zhang Sheng narrowed his eyes: "Or do you have other ideas?" ”

"This era is very good, crisis and opportunity coexist, the 08 Olympics, the 08 financial crisis ......"

Xu Shengnan didn't answer, just kept smiling.

After Lin Xia watched the two of them suddenly laugh, she suddenly felt that she and they were people of two worlds.

This moment!

She suddenly felt like a little sheep......

Just then, her cell phone rang.

It was Sister Hong from [Shengshi Entertainment] who called.

…………………………

"I'm sorry, Sister Hong, I'm ready to sell the copyright to [Starlight Future]!"

"Signed the agreement?"

"Not yet, but it should be signed."

"Teacher Lin Xia, do you want to read my contract first, we have added you to 500,000, and at the same time, other benefits remain unchanged......"

"Sorry......"

After Li Yanhong heard the rejection on the other end of the phone, she was a little stunned.

Subsequently, she prescribed a series of very loose terms, and her words were extraordinarily enthusiastic, and she also took out Zhang Panpan......

But after the other party hesitated, he still refused.

After a while, after hanging up the phone, her face became slightly cold.

After thinking about it, she thought of a possibility that was not impossible.

The price quoted by [Starlight Future] is very likely to be much higher than hers, and the terms are very likely to be more lenient!

Then Xu Shengnan is crazy, right?
