Magnolia Empire. Magnolia City. The residence of the Duke of Dale.
At this time, Goldnia was quite depressed. Before coming here, Demon Lord Hill had taught him how to deal with various situations, and he had done a lot of mock questions and answers. Goldnia was confident that he could negotiate this cooperation, but Neither he nor Lord Demon King expected the other party to make such an opening statement.
At this moment, although he sat in the other party's house, his plan was still disrupted. At this moment, he sat on the seat with a cold face, and it was Qi Li Dale who spoke first: "Sir, you just said Is it about film collaborations?"
If you can, I want you to kneel down and call me my lord. humble human being. Goldnia said in his heart, but on the surface he tried his best to show the same smile as when he was acting in the movie—the Lord Demon King said that you should pay attention to smiling when discussing cooperation—"Yes, ma'am."
"I'm sorry, your smile is too obtrusive." Qi Li said, "Can you stop laughing?"
... lowly human beings! ! ! Goldonia roared in his heart.
"I'm sorry," Qi Li said again, "It's because your performance in the movie was so impressive. I think every woman in Yulan City who has watched the movie now has some bad feelings for you...err...."
Be patient, be patient. Goldnia told himself, and then he returned to his expressionless face: "Yes. It's about the cooperation method of the film. I believe you can see the business opportunities in it, madam."
Of course Hill taught him this.
"I can see the business opportunities inside... But, if I'm not mistaken, sir, you're not human, are you?" Qi Li said.
"Yes, no," Goldonia replied.
Lord Demon King told him that if the other party asked him if he was not a human being, he could just answer it directly. After all, Hill wanted to find a human being with whom he could cooperate for a long time, and there were some things that could not be concealed, for example, the movie itself revealed too much information.
"Well, I want to think about it." Qi Li said, after all, this is the demon clan...
"Okay, you can think about it." Goldnia said bluntly, "I can also find other people." After he finished speaking, he disappeared. Qi Li stood up in a daze, the room was empty, as if what happened just now was like a dream.
Gordenia is not joking, he is really looking for other people. In Hill's plan, there should be more than one partner of the demons in the human world, and the news of "finding a partner" should also be spread on a small scale For a moment, this is conducive to his subsequent plans.
The next person Goldnia was looking for was a businessman with a title, or the other party's title was bought directly with gold coins, named Joan Baker.
Joan Baker is a cunning guy wrapped in a gentleman's skin-his opponents think so, he stands out in the circle at just over 1.8 meters tall, with silver streaks in his black hair, not because of age, but because of humble origins , caused by injuring his body after eating food contaminated by magic when he was young. He usually wears a windbreaker and holds a cane, but hides a sword in the cane. Rumor has it that he once killed someone.
Hill has read his profile and thinks he is more in line with his standards.
The previous conversation was similar to that of Qili. When Joan Baker asked Goldonia if she was a demon, she readily responded. Joan looked into Goldnia's eyes and said, "I Is it fair to say that if I had said 'no', my dead body would have been lying stiff on the floor facing tomorrow's sunrise."
"No." Gordon said.
Joan breathed a sigh of relief.
Then Goldnia was heard saying: "I kill without leaving a body."
Joan Baker: …
Okay, this is strong.
"You don't say 'no', though, because you know it means a lot of money," Goldonia said.
Joan Baker fell silent.
Gordonia continued: "There's more than one step in the movie, there's a sequel, more."
Joan Baker's cold gray eyes moved slightly. He is a person who is very good at suppressing his emotions. Such an expression is already out of line for him. He said: "I am not short of money, I have enough now Money has gained enough respect and titles, so why should I cooperate?"
"Because it's not enough, because you want more." Goldnia said according to Hill's instructions.
Hill told him yesterday that if the other party said that he was not short of money, he would say: You are not short of money but you want more, something like that.
Joan Baker's expression twisted slightly, and then a wanton smile appeared on the corner of his lips, "You are a real devil." He said, "You are right, I want more."
Gordenia thought to himself, this man is really stupid, I am a devil, didn't I just tell him
Hmm... I don't know who is really stupid.
"There is another question." Joan Baker said, "If others know that I am cooperating with demons, will I be ruined?"
Goldnia smiled and said, "Ariel is also a devil, but now everyone sympathizes with her."
Joan Baker also smiled: "I see." Then he said: "Although it is presumptuous, I think you should stop laughing at me. I kind of wanted to hit someone... Sorry, because of the movie."
MMP. Goldnia returned to his expressionless face.
Even the sinister, cunning, rational and cold businessman can't stand his smile anymore, it's really a disaster, it's too miserable.

Goldnia was thoughtful as he emerged from Joan Baker's house.
Of course, the negotiation went very smoothly. The general direction has been determined, and the next step is some details. He has used many of the words that Demon King Hill taught him, some of which Gordenia still doesn't understand.
For example, if the other party asked whether it would be bad reputation to cooperate with the demons, he would answer that the siren princess is also a demon.
Then Joan Baker said he understood, what did he understand? Gordenia hadn't quite figured it out yet.
But it would go so smoothly... Goldonia thought to himself, this is, wisdom
He didn't return to his habitat immediately. He stood on the streets of Yulan City, looked up at the starry sky in the human world, which was different from the lower realm, and began to think about what he had seen in the past few days.
The wives and ladies of the upper class admire "Daughter of the Sea" and sympathize with the Siren Princess. Speaking of which, human beings are really kind, and they can still sympathize with such an ugly siren princess (... ).
Successful negotiations with Joan Baker.
Gordeniya suddenly understood that the film can not only gain money, but also the cultural invasion that the devil has always talked about.
These people will hate him because he played a bad guy. These people are sympathizing with Siren Princess and a demon clan. If this movie is widely broadcast, more people will sympathize with Siren Princess. The second and third films will be filmed next... If watching movies becomes people's daily entertainment, and there are many attractive and sympathetic demons in the movies, wouldn't human thinking also change accordingly
Goldnia had a sudden epiphany, and his next thought was—
Sure enough, he is worthy of being the Lord Demon King!
03.
Two days later, Joan Baker put up a huge poster in front of one of his theaters—
"The Daughter of the Sea", a brand new art form - movie!
A love story between a siren and a human!
This movie has brought many ladies and ladies to tears. Miss Olivia of Jefferson said: This movie once made my dad kick me and my brother out of the house!
This may be the embryonic form of the title party in another world...
But I have to say, this kind of publicity is very attractive.
