Dark can be said to be a top-notch person in the author circle, and his reputation has long been out of the circle.
His mystery is known to everyone.
Not only that, I heard from Dark's editor that Dark himself has a bad temper and is quite impatient.
I didn't cooperate with many publishing house activities and never showed up.
So at that time, Donghuang had the intention to cooperate with him in depth regarding the terms that Dark requested to be added to the contract. To show his sincerity, he agreed directly without bargaining.
Zhao Xinran's words are too rude at the moment. If he angers Dark and doesn't cooperate with them in the future, it will definitely be a big loss for Donghuang.
So the staff did not execute it immediately, but looked at the agent.
Zhao Xinran frowned when he saw this, "What do you think she is doing? Didn't you hear me?"
The agent quickly said: "Miss, please don't be angry yet."
After she finished speaking, she looked at the staff, "Tell Dark that the price of the poster will be doubled, and 'Jiang Zhao' must be ranked C. Let's see how he responds."
The staff nodded.
Here, Gu Mang narrowed his eyes after receiving the news.
Throw money at her
The nature of this kind of thing is equivalent to bringing money into the group and asking for extra scenes.
Gu Mang has been in the entertainment industry. Although she is behind the scenes, she has heard a lot about this kind of operation.
The final result is that the film and television series have been transformed into a mess.
She pressed one hand on the small drawing board, and stepped on the sofa with one leg bent, her posture was arrogant, and she still said three words unhurriedly: "According to the script."
The staff member glanced at the phone, and then the screen turned to the agent, "Sister Tong, I still haven't agreed."
Zhao Xinran was also used to being praised. She had everything going smoothly and got whatever she wanted. However, she was rejected twice and looked a little ugly.
The Zhao family is considered a well-known wealthy family in the capital, and Donghuang is a three-legged family with the other two major media companies in the capital.
As the daughter of the boss of Donghuang, Zhao Xinran is used to being praised. After entering the entertainment industry, everything goes smoothly and she gets whatever she wants.
Now that she had been rejected twice by a small author, she looked a little ugly.
An Tong lowered his eyes and thought.
Even if Dark is famous in the author circle, it is Donghuang who buys his copyright and makes a living for him.
Now I don't want to give in, I just want to raise the price and get a little more.
There is no need to make things ugly if money can solve them.
What's more, Dark's IP is of high value now. If you want to cooperate in the future, you must maintain a superficial relationship.
An Tong looked at the staff and said, "Tell him three times the price."
"Okay." The staff continued to convey, but after waiting for ten minutes, there was no reply.
The staff looked at An Tong in confusion and sent another message: [God D?]
After waiting for another five minutes, the phone went silent with no reply.
This attitude is a refusal to cooperate.
The whole lounge was dead silent.
Zhao Xinran sat on the sofa and squinted his eyes, "Do you really think everyone has to listen to him? The poster doesn't need his. I'm going to find a new painter. My name must be in front of Sheng Ting on the poster."
Do you want to skip Dark directly
"Miss, this won't work." An Tong frowned and looked at Zhao Xinran, "If you let Dark know, you will be completely offended. I'm afraid it will be difficult to cooperate in the future."
And there is no need for Zhao Xinran to compete with Sheng Ting. After all, she is not as well-known as Sheng Ting. It would be counterproductive to overpower Sheng Ting.
"Originally Dark fans are not optimistic about you. If you offend Shengting fans again, it will be difficult for us to control public opinion." An Tong had a headache.
They were prepared to hand over the matter to the lawyers with a veto power, but they just wanted to scare Dark.
No matter how powerful Dark is, he is still just a small author. In the capital, people rely on connections and background to speak for themselves.
When I met a professional team of lawyers, it was the team of gold medal lawyer Jiang Shenyuan.
She didn't believe that Dark wasn't afraid.
What's more, if Donghuang wants to ban an author, it's just a matter of one sentence. If Dark is not stupid, he knows not to seek death.
When the time comes, give him a slap in the face and give him a veto. This matter will be over.
Future contracts can even continue to squeeze Dark and gain more initiative.
But if you change the poster and find a lawyer, no one can bear to be criticized twice in a short period of time. If the dog is anxious, he will jump over the wall.
Zhao Xinran squinted her eyes and said, "This is your business. It has nothing to do with me. If you can't handle it, it's a matter of your ability."
"Miss, I..."
An Tong hasn't finished speaking yet.
Zhao Xinran interrupted her, "Sheng Ting, as long as he posts on Weibo, his fans will be obedient. As for Dark, I know that the company wants to continue to cooperate with him. There has been no work for two years, and we still expect him to be able to do it." What valuable IP can we provide you?”
An Tong said: "Dark still has the film rights to two works."
Zhao Xinran said indifferently: "Then let's talk now and get it over with as soon as possible. Anyway, it will take some time before the camera starts."
Once the copyright is negotiated, Dark will be kicked out directly.
It's not like the company has never done this before.
After filming begins, rumors will definitely leak out that she will play Jiang Zhao.
The company had already thought about it and simply announced it officially to create a wave of popularity.
An Tong opened his mouth, and it was clear that Zhao Xinran insisted, so he could only say: "Okay."
…
Saturday morning.
There are some matters at the 14th Institute that need to be handled by Lu Chengzhou himself.
When the man came out of the bathroom, Gu Mang was still sleeping.
He walked over, sat down by the bed, and pushed the loose hair from her face behind her ears.
Gu Mang felt a little itchy, so he pulled his hand away and pressed it on the bed, with his big and small hands folded over each other.
Lu Chengzhou held her back and said, "I'll be back as soon as possible. You should be good in the capital and call if you need anything."
Gu Mang said nothing. "Hmm." Lu Chengzhou pinched her thin, white fingertips with a little force.
Gu Mang was angry at getting up. He was tired last night, and now he was a little impatient. "Yeah."
Lu Chengzhou looked at Gu Mang's expression of almost giving him a kick, and narrowed his eyes slightly. Just as he was about to say something, Gu Mang's cell phone rang on the bedside table.
He glanced at the sleepy girl, picked up the phone, and saw Ferro on the caller ID.
As soon as the call was connected, Feiluo's voice came over, "Gu Mang, I'm leaving now and will arrive at about ten o'clock. Is your time okay there?"
Lu Chengzhou lowered his eyes and looked at the girl with gentle eyes, and said to the phone: "Wait a moment."
Over there, Ferro heard a male voice and was stunned.
Then I heard Lu Chengzhou's softer voice, "Editor-in-chief Philo will be here at ten o'clock, can you get up?"
Gu Mang closed his eyes, "What time is it now?"
Lu Chengzhou: "Eight thirty."
Gu Mang: "Okay."
Lu Chengzhou thought for a second, then held his cell phone and said, "I will send someone to pick you up. We will have dinner at the Emperor Garden at noon. If there is not enough time for the interview, you can continue in the afternoon."
Feiluo said quickly: "Don't bother Mr. Lu, I'll take a taxi myself."
"No trouble." Lu Chengzhou said, "Please send the hotel address to Gu Mang's mobile phone."
Feiluo couldn't refuse anymore, so he agreed.
After hanging up the phone, Lu Chengzhou put down his phone and touched Gu Mang's face, "I can sleep for one more hour."
Gu Mang opened his eyes and looked at him, "How many days will you be gone?"
Lu Chengzhou raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Can't you let me go?"
Gu Mang was silent for a moment, "I'll just ask."
"If you can't let go, then you can't let go. We are an old married couple. There is nothing to be embarrassed about." Lu Chengzhou drawled.
Gu Mang: "You are old."
"That's why I love the young." Lu Chengzhou pinched her soft earlobe, "You must also respect the elderly."
Gu Mang: "..."
Okay, there are a lot of tricks.
"I haven't seen the specific situation yet. I don't know how many days it will take." Lu Chengzhou said, "I will send you a message when we get there."
Both of them are engaged in scientific research, but in different fields.
Gu Mang knew that sometimes it was a headache to encounter problems that he couldn't overcome, and he didn't know when he would be able to solve them.
She lifted the quilt and sat up.
When Lu Chengzhou saw this, he was stunned for a moment and looked at her strangely, "What's wrong?"
Gu Mang's voice was a little low, "Go wash up and have breakfast."
Lu Chengzhou looked at her back walking to the bathroom and laughed.
I also knew that I would have breakfast with him before he left.
…
When Philo arrived at the Imperial Garden.
Lu Chengzhou has left.
Lu Qi led him to the door of the study, knocked on the door, and when he heard Gu Mang's voice, he pushed open and said, "Editor-in-Chief Feiluo, please come in."
"Thank you." Philo nodded politely.
Inside, Gu Mang was sitting on a sofa chair, talking on the phone, with a bunch of information in hand.
"We have a meeting on Monday. I will organize the information and bring it to you." Gu Mang said.
There seemed to be another question asked over there.
Gu Mang flipped through the information on the table, then stopped flipping, "There is an electronic version, I will send it to you later."
Feiluo walked to the couch next to Gu Mang and sat down, with his briefcase beside him.
Lu Qi poured him a cup of tea, "Please."
Ferro nodded and thanked him in a lowered voice.
Lu Qi turned around and went out.
Gu Mang told the other party on the phone several issues that needed to be resolved at the meeting next Monday and asked everyone to prepare relevant materials.
About five minutes passed.
"Yes." Gu Mang answered the phone, hung up and threw the phone on the table, looking at Fei Luo, "Sorry, I'm going to send out some information, you sit down first."
Philo said: "OK."
The electronic version is on Gu Mang's computer, and her computer is in the small study room in the master bedroom.
She got up and went back to the master bedroom.
The study door closed, leaving only Ferro.
He took out a notepad, laptop, voice recorder, and camera from his briefcase to prepare what he would need for the interview.
He put the things on the table, his peripheral vision passed over a pile of old wood-colored papers on the table, and his eyes froze.
His eyes moved slightly, and a "black and red gradient line snake emblem" logo in the lower right corner of the paper suddenly enlarged in his eyes.
He stared straight at the papers, his eyes full of shock, and it took him a few seconds to regain his composure.
He didn't even care about the impolite behavior of touching other people's things without their permission, and stiffly stretched out his hand to pick up the old papers from the pile of information.
Fei Luo looked at the familiar fonts on it, his eyes trembling violently.
The manuscript of a miracle doctor!
