Lin Xu heard that Sima Xi really had something to do with him, although he didn't know what it was, he didn't dare to refuse, gritted his teeth and said: "Prince Xi is polite, even if you have something, just tell him." ”

Sima Xi smiled, but didn't say it directly, suddenly pinched the manuscript on the table, trembled slightly, and asked a question: "Mr. Lin, this book is published normally, how much money can you make?"

Lin Xu was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect Sima Xi to ask about this topic, calculated slightly, and said: "Now the publishing industry is not good, and you can't make much money as an ordinary author, and you have to lose money if you don't do it, but Changkong Wanli is a well-known writer, and the content of this book is good, the physical book plus electronic copyright, it is conservatively estimated that the remuneration is about 1.2 million, and the publishing house can probably earn more than two or three million, which are all income after tax deduction." Of course, if there is a chance to be adapted into a film and television drama in the later stage, it will be different, however, the chance of adapting this theme into a film and television drama is not very large. ”

I have to say that Lin Xu is still very proficient in business, at least this offer is very accurate.

"Well, Mr. Lin, do you think this is good, I'll give you 10 million, you discuss with the author, don't publish this book. Sima Xi said.

"Ah, good...... Wait, Mr. Xi, what are you talking about? Give me 10 million? Not out of the book? What do you mean by that? I don't quite understand. Lin Xu was dumbfounded and stammered.

"It's actually very simple, and you will understand it as soon as I say it. Sima Xi picked up the tea bowl, pressed down the lid of the bowl, took a sip gently, and then said: "The copper mine mentioned in this book has the investment of my family, about 300 million, not much, but not too little, after the book comes out, I am afraid it will affect the business of the copper mine, and the loss is not enough for this 10 million." ”

"I see. Lin Xu said.

"Of course, don't be embarrassed, I will tell my family about the problems mentioned in the book, let him correct them as soon as possible, don't deduct his salary, don't save money in a small place, it's boring, and he has a bad reputation. Sima Xi continued.

"Understood, understood. Lin Xu nodded again and again.

"Mr. Lin, Mr. Xi has already told him what he meant, what do you think about this?" asked the Wind Gentleman.

"I don't have a problem here, it's just ......" Lin Xu smiled bitterly.

"It's just what?, Prince Xi's sincerity is enough!" Feng Junzi's face turned cold.

"Don't scare people, Mr. Lin, don't hesitate to say anything difficult you have. Sima Xi stretched out his hand to stop the wind gentleman.

"I have no problem, the author of this book may not agree, you know, some writers are very concerned about his works, not about money, especially this long sky, I have seen it once, it doesn't look like a writer, but a bit of a Jianghu person, he may not agree to this matter. Lin Xu said.

"Coincidentally, he's from the rivers and lakes? I'm also from the rivers and lakes! Things are easy to do!" said the wind gentleman coldly.

"This ......" Lin Xu sweated on his forehead.

"Don't worry, you can ask him first, any conditions are easy to discuss, money is easy to say, other things are easy to say, as long as you are willing to say. Sima Xi said.

"Okay, no problem, I'll call now. ”

Lin Xu took out his mobile phone and dialed a number, and the owner of this number was the author of this book, whose name was Tie Xingyun.

"Changkong, I'm Lin Xu, I have something to discuss with you. Lin Xu said with a smile.

"What's wrong?" Tie Xingyun's voice came from the other side.

"That's the ......" Lin Xu told Sima Xi's requirements and his conditions as he was, and even Sima Xi's promise to improve the working mode of the copper mine and ensure that no worker would not receive his wages.

After more than ten minutes, Lin Xu finished talking about things with all his might, and then, after a pause, hung up the phone.

"What did the writer say?" asked the Wind Gentleman.

"Get out!" Lin Xu muttered.

"What do you mean by that?" said the Wind Gentleman's face changed drastically.

"Ah, Mr. Xi, Mr. Feng, don't get me wrong, I mean that the writer just said one word - get out!" Lin Xu reacted and quickly explained.

"What a big guts!" Wind Gentleman's face was as gloomy as water.

"I ......" Lin Xu didn't know what to say.

"Mr. Lin, you can't be blamed for this, everyone has their own ambitions, can't be forced, by the way, do you have the mailing address of this writer? Can you give me a copy?" Sima Xi said with a smile.

"This... What's the use of Young Master Xi asking for this?" Lin Xu was a little dazed.

"What use do I have, Mr. Lin doesn't care, just give it to me, give it to us or be friends, if you don't give it, let's ......" Sima Xi shook his head slightly.

"I... Well, I write to you guys. Lin Xu sighed and agreed.

He didn't know what Sima Xi would do with this mailing address, and he was worried that it would harm the sky, but he couldn't afford to offend Sima Xi, or the entire circle behind Sima Xi.

People are in the rivers and lakes, and they can't help themselves!

Lin Xu has often had this feeling over the years, but he has never felt it so deeply as he does today.

"Okay, Mr. Lin let's get busy first, we'll be friends from today on!" Sima Xi accepted the mailing address.

"Congratulations Mr. Lin, you have made the right choice, Xi Gongzi is willing to be your friend, and you will have a very pleasant stay in Jianye Mansion!" Feng Junzi smiled, then clapped his hands, called a waiter, and took Lin Xu out.

After Lin Xu left, Feng Junzi asked, "Young Master Xi, what are you going to do?"

Sima Xi smiled lightly and said indifferently: "What to talk about? I have something to talk about with him, just give the address to the fifth child, and he will talk about the rest." ”

"I'm afraid that the fifth prince won't be so polite, and it's not ......" Feng Junzi shook his head.

"That's his business. A cold glint flashed in Sima Xi's eyes.

......

Jingzhou, Liuhe Province.

In a box in the "Emperor Tonight" clubhouse, a pale young man leaned on the sofa with his back to the sky, staring boredly at the ceiling light, disdainful of the dozen or so scantily clad young girls in front of him, as if he hadn't seen anything.

"Fifth son, drink two glasses together?" a gray-haired man in his thirties approached with a wine bottle.

"Forget it, gray wolf, what kind of goods are these things for, can you drink them too?" said the man, known as the Fifth Prince, pointing to the girl in front of him.

"No way, small place, nothing fun. Said the man known as the Gray Wolf.

Drip......

Just as the two were talking, the fifth son's mobile phone suddenly rang, prompting that he had received an email, he opened the phone, glanced at it, and his face suddenly sank.

"Fifth son, what's wrong?" the gray wolf found that something was wrong.

"Have you had any missions for the past two days?"

"Just resting. ”

"In this way, you go to Chunming Mansion to find someone, or kill him, or tie him up, in short, don't let him talk nonsense anymore. ”

"Understand, then I'll tie him up, go back to the temple to ask for incense, the old monk asked me to kill less, or kidnap, it looks more civilized." The gray wolf said with a smile.
