When he heard Nishino say words of full reproach, Zhang Lixin's face immediately turned dark: "Mr. Xi, our TV station's original author of "The Pagoda River Demon" was only 1.1 million yuan in rewards. Yours is only 400,000 words, and giving 5 million is already very high."

"Oh, is it very tall? Do you know if I spent more than ten years preparing materials, writing nearly a year, checking how many records of the emperors, and visiting many places..." Nishino asked with a side face.

"It's not too low, Mr. Xi." Zhang Lixin put down the coffee cup in his hand.

"That's the name Han, a city sold for 2 million yuan. He didn't write a single word, but he just set a book title. What's the logic!"

"But he is a famous writer and is very famous. Besides, commercial hype is normal. If there is demand, there will be a market. Your novel style is too classic, which is a fatal flaw. Readers who do not have a certain level of ancient Chinese literature cannot understand it." Zhang Lixin opened a new version of the novel Yang Family General and turned to the first page, "For example, the dialogue between Tu Sui and Shi Huang..."

"It's reasonable. It's normal for the sake of high and low words to be together. If Huayi had sincere cooperation, he would have come to me to discuss cooperation ten years ago. It's too late to come today." Nishino was very dissatisfied, "I have been waiting for ten years and have been eager to see you... If I had chosen to continue writing novels in full time, I would have starved to death on the streets."

"Mr. Xi, I have been sharpening my sword for ten years. Isn't this the Huayi brothers here?" Zhang Lixin rubbed his hands.

"I have long since lost the courage to sharpen my sword... Can you represent Huayi?" Nishino was very surprised.

"Of course it's OK." Zhang Lixin nodded.

"Huayi doesn't have much sincerity. First, at least, you have to send a senior business representative to accompany you, but they don't. Who do I think I am? Second, the terms of the contract were not discussed with me in advance. Can you still call a contract? Director Zhang, you are a lobbyist for Huayi, how much errands did they give you?"

Speaking of the errand fee, Zhang Lixin was stunned. Could it be that Nishino guessed my identity? Huayi Brothers did not do well, and it took so long for the new version of the Yang family to wait. Everyone has any ideas. Life is short, how many decades are there? Why did President Xi just say that Hua Xiong came to negotiate, but suddenly another 180-degree turn, this change is too fast.

Zhang Lixin was silent for a long time and put away the script: "Mr. Xi, Huayi did not give me much benefit, and drinking water was not enough."

"So, are you purely voluntary labor?"

"It's not all, there's still a little reward."

"Since the new version of the Yang family needs to be put into the army, then I won't shoot it. I don't expect it to become famous... I recommend a script that does not require the participation of the troops, how about it?" Nishino pondered for a moment.

"Whose?"

"Hua Xiong's "Toutiao Marriage 2" is an urban emotional drama with little investment and high returns. Is Director Zhang interested?"

"Is that true? I haven't read his works and don't know the specific content. Why don't you let Assistant Hua bring his novel here and let me see it?"

Wow, modern life dramas are so popular, so I will let Hua Xiong come over immediately. Nishino said so.

"Thank you, Mr. Xi. I have time to wait. How long will it take to come?" Zhang Lixin was very happy. He lost it and won it in the east corner.

"Well, there is no problem. He will arrive in half an hour if I call me." Nishino grabbed his cell phone and talked to Hua Xiong.

When Hua Xiong learned that Zhang Lixin was interested in his novel, he was overjoyed and flew out of Shengyi Media and drove to Huashun headquarters. Along the way, he whistled and hummed songs, and was very proud.

As soon as he got off the car, he didn't even close the door and headed straight to Xiye's office. As soon as he arrived at the door, he saw Zhang Lixin discussing something with Xiye.

"Mr. Xi, Director Zhang, you two are good." Hua Xiong held the paper version of "Toutiao Marriage 2" in his hand.

"Oh, Teacher Hua, you came so fast." Zhang Lixin stood up and greeted Hua Xiong happily.

"Director Zhang, you have been raising me. Hua just made a dozen soy sauces. You call me teacher and I will be ruined." Hua Xiong said with a smile.

"Huahua, please talk to Director Zhang about the adaptation of the novel. You can talk slowly, I still have something to do, so I will lose my companion." Nishino patted Hua Xiong on the shoulder, "Get the opportunity yourself." After that, he left the office and went to the scientific research building...

"Well. Director Zhang, let's start." Hua Xiong spread out his novel "Toutiao Marriage 2" and held Zhang Lixin's eyes in both hands.

Zhang Lixin was not in a hurry to read the book and asked Hua Xiong a few irrelevant questions. Hua Xiong, who was eloquent, answered one by one, which made Zhang Lixin very satisfied. The two talked with each other for more than an hour and initially finalized the draft contract for cooperation.

Before leaving, Zhang Lixin gave Hua Xiong a business card, which reads - Zhang Lixin, vice president of Southeast Literature and Art Publishing House, director and screenwriter of Huayi Brothers Film and Television Group.

Haha, this title is quite good! Hua Xiong took the business card, put it in his bag and packed it, and then drove Zhang Lixin to Baiyun Airport.

"Director Zhang, then when can I meet Mr. Wang?" Hua Xiong asked.

"Soon. As soon as I returned to Hong Kong, I immediately went to Mr. Wang to sign the official contract within one month and hold the opening ceremony within two months." Zhang Lixin responded confidently.

"In order to thank Director Zhang for his kindness for his kindness to me, I will pay for your air ticket today. I will invite your guests after the matter is completed. Thank you separately." Hua Xiong took out 1,400 yuan from his wallet and gave it to Zhang Lixin.

"Hey, how can this happen? The air ticket company will reimburse it..." Zhang Lixin said no matter what, he waved his hand.

"Then I'm embarrassed..." Hua Xiong took back the money and was overjoyed, "Director Zhang, goodbye."

In fact, Zhang Lixin thinks that the money is too low. Without more than 100,000 yuan, he will not receive red envelopes from the novel author at will. In order to ruin his reputation for just over 1,000 yuan, Zhang Lixin will not be so funny.

Back at Shengyi Media, Hua Xiong, who was happy, couldn't help but feel joy in his heart and started clamoring at the company, saying that his novel would be adapted into a TV series by Huayi Brothers.

The colleagues treated him with admiration and begged Hua Xiong as a great writer intimately. Even the look of looking at him was different, and they were smiling. This really made Hua Xiong proud for a while. For this reason, Hua Xiong also sent WeChat messages one by one, inviting Long Xiaoxiao, Xiao Sanxi and the others to gather at the Seaview Hotel to celebrate and ask Long Xiaoxiao to convey the information to Xiye.

As soon as Long Xiaoxiao received Hua Xiong's invitation message, he took his mobile phone to Nishino, who was inquiring about Huaxin No. 3 R&D process in the scientific research building. After calling five or six times in a row, there was still no movement on Nishino. Nishino's mobile phone fell in the office, and of course no one answered it.

After hanging up the phone, Xiaoxiao couldn't help but wonder, what did this devil do? He didn't answer the phone? Could it be that he was having a meeting again? Hey, let's talk about it when he comes back tonight, he is the first in work.

Returning to the office from the scientific research building, Nishino saw five or six missed calls on his phone, all of whom Xiaoxiao called. He thought that his wife had nothing important to do, and there might be another dinner party. He was afraid of drinking, especially those nonsensical dinner parties. He didn't care and continued to sign the documents.

"Dingdong", WeChat is here. Nishino opened WeChat and it turned out to be an application to add a friend. The other party's online name is Jingxiao, and his avatar is a nurse, and he is about 20 years old. Nishino passed the request without thinking.

Jingxiao immediately came a message: Hello, what a coincidence. You can add people nearby. This is the first time I play with people nearby. I searched for yours through my mobile address book.

Nishino thought he was an acquaintance and entered the word "Hello", but after half a day, Jingxiao did not respond. Nishino sent a "?".

Five minutes later, Jingxiao replied: I was just giving the patient a little bit, but now I’m free now. What are you doing? How old are you? What’s your name?

"Fuck, girls are so brave nowadays. They always ask strangers' age." Nishino thought, writing a random line of words: I am in my 30s in my twenties, and there is an introduction to the space. I see sharks.

Jingxiao: I am an intern nurse in the hospital here. Where do you live? Send me a location to see if it is not far away?

Why should I tell you my location? Do you want to trick me? Nishino laughed secretly. But he decided to tentatively calm down, "I'm in Yuexiu District, more than 20 kilometers away from you, are you studying at Military Medical University?"

"By the way, I'm 21 this year. My hometown is from Sichuan. I just came here for an internship. I'll introduce you what delicious food and fun here."

"Yes, Yuexiu Park, Big Buddha Temple, etc. are worth a visit. The bus will arrive for two yuan. Huanghuagang Martyrs Cemetery is also good. I will take you to Humen Beach to have a breeze when you have time." Xiye felt that Jingxiao had a problem. Since she was intern at the Military Medical University Hospital, it was impossible not to know the attractions in Yuexiu District.

"We live in the dormitory of the Military Medical University Hospital. Are you far away?"

"Not far away. Come to my house to have fun. I will take you to the big Buddha Temple to see Baiyun Airport."

In order to prove that he was indeed an internship, Jingxiao posted a short video and left a text. She was filmed by herself before, and I could rest tomorrow. There is also a young sister who also came to the internship outside the country. If you have time, why don’t you come and be a tour guide for us.

"good."

"Let's talk about it when I get off work. The head nurse will come over to inspect it later. I'm going to work now. Contact you on WeChat after get off work, don't fool me." Then there was no further information.

Nishino was too lazy to deal with this little girl of unknown origin. The liar made all the tricks, so it was better to be cautious and be careful to make the ten thousand-year-old ship. If you want to trick me, you are still young!

Then there was lunch break. In order not to let phone calls and information disturb his sleep, he turned his phone to silent. He lay on the chair and fell asleep unknowingly.

When he woke up, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon. He rubbed his temples, got up and moved for a while, and suddenly remembered Jingxiao, who called herself the "intern nurse". When he opened the screen, he saw more than a dozen messages.

"Brother, please help me, but I'm afraid you will misunderstand me!"

Haha, the little girl screamed sweetly. Nishino laughed silently.
Chapter completed!
