Chapter 278 Gambling Agreement
The negotiations lasted for 2 hours.
Qiao Susu's chips were placed on the table one by one.
She first played the recording of Supervisor 778 to Han Chen, and Han Chen's face instantly turned ugly.
"Boss Han, you're not going to say that this is an employee your company has already fired and has nothing to do with you, right?"
Qiao Susu analyzed them one by one for him in an orderly manner.
"This recording completely proves that INF conducted livestream marketing and promotional activities during the players' gameplay without obtaining their prior permission. Overseas, unlike in mainland China, if such news were to reach the public, it would undoubtedly cause an uproar."
Han Chen sneered.
"Isn't it just PR? Even if you leak the information, as long as I let the team handle it, there are many ways to deal with it. It's just a matter of how much loss you suffer."
The man leaned forward and smiled at Qiao Suisui, "I can afford the loss."
Han Chen had seen a lot in the business world, and his aura and reaction speed were not ordinary. Ordinary people might be intimidated here, thinking that their bargaining chips were really useless to him.
But Qiao Sui Sui was silent for a moment, staring into his eyes and said, "Even if you can spend money on PR to save the relationship, can you spend money to buy time?"
At present, INF company has spent a lot of money on publicity and promotion, and many channels have been laid out. The next step is to end the internal test and officially launch the service. However, at this juncture, if negative news continues to be exposed, it will not only be a problem of losses, but also a question of whether the official release can be carried out.
If the issuance cannot be carried out as planned, the company's financial report this year will definitely not look good. When the stock price plummets, investors will definitely hold the company accountable. The interests and risks involved are unclear.
Han Chen was certainly well aware of this.
He is still trying to scare Qiao Susu, thinking that she is just a little girl who can't even figure things out.
Little did she know that she knew the rules of the capital game very well, thanks to Guan Weizi.
The two sides were deadlocked for a while, and Han Chen finally said, "Name your price. How much would it cost to buy what you have?"
Qiao Sui Sui looked puzzled. "I thought I had made it very clear. I want the mainland operating rights."
"Little boy, don't think you'll become fat in one go. Your appetite is too big to handle."
"Mr. Han, don't worry about me." Qiao Suisui smiled and said, "Besides, I think this is a completely profitable proposal for you."
She looked at Han Chen seriously and said, "I want to sign a gambling agreement with you."
Han Chen's eyebrows raised slightly, and he couldn't hide his interest in looking at the person in front of him.
She simply said, "Give me a mainland business license, and I'll open a company there to distribute and operate this game. 70% of the annual revenue will go to INF headquarters, and the remaining 30% will belong to me. In three years, I'll help you achieve positive revenue and double your profit margin. Do you dare to take the risk?"
Han Chen looked at her for a long time without saying a word.
In this way, he and she become a community of interests, and the leverage in Qiao Susu's hands will no longer be a threat. In addition, with her status as a popular player, subsequent public relations and publicity work will also proceed more smoothly.
The man unbuttoned a button of his suit and sat lazily on the swivel chair. His hands tapped the table again and again, and the sound echoed in the empty conference room.
"What if you lose?" he asked.
"I'll take whatever responsibility you want from me. If you're worried, you can put it in writing in the agreement."
Han Chen smiled and tilted his head to look at her, seeming very curious: "This has been your plan from the beginning, right? Destroying your world just gives you an excuse?"
"No." Qiao Sui Sui solemnly denied, "It is precisely because I want my world to continue to exist in my life for a long time that I have done this."
Han Chen showed a puzzled expression, "Isn't it just a game? You really fell in love with the characters in it?"
"Is it not possible?"
Qiao Susu's calmness made Han Chen feel that she had a faint sense of madness.
He shrugged, a gleam in his eyes, and then he smiled tentatively: "A girl like you should have plenty of suitors in real life, why bother dating a few paper figures in the game."
Qiao Susu felt uncomfortable with such remarks. She wanted to say that it was because in reality, there were only arrogant men like you who thought they had everything under control, including women.
But she just stood up and walked over, ignoring his words, and extended her hand, saying, "It's a pleasure to work with you."
Han Chen glanced at her and shook her hand. "It's a pleasure to work with you."
2 hours before being wiped out.
The INF employees were very efficient, and soon a drafted agreement was placed in front of Qiao Susu. At this time, Guan Weizi and the team of lawyers he brought with him also came up at Qiao Susu's request.
"Are you okay? Are you hurt?" Guan Weizi frowned and looked her up and down. Seeing that her wrist was a little red and swollen and her hair was slightly messy, he immediately looked at Han Chen.
"I will sue you for unlawful use of violence."
Han Chen had been observing Guan Weizhi since he came in. When he noticed the way he looked at Qiao Susu, he snorted coldly.
Hearing Guan Weizhi say this, Han Chen said with a smile: "At most, I can be considered as a poor manager. Go ahead and sue me."
Guan Weizi stared at him coldly, and was annoyed by his dead pig-like look.
"Teacher Guan, forget it." Qiao Susu gave him a look, indicating that she was fine.
Guan Weizi's complexion improved slightly.
During the signing process, lawyers from both parties were present, so some details and specific terms were debated by the lawyers on both sides for a while, and each side secured the greatest interests for their employer.
"My client has not promised to invest, but only to provide you with the licensing rights."
"But opening a city in the mainland is not an easy task. It is entirely borne by my client. The initial investment cost is very high, and..."
Qiao Susu looked at Han Chen and saw that he was smiling cunningly.
"I said I would give you the license, not invest in you. If you don't have enough capital, do you want to borrow some from me?" Han Chen said.
Qiao Sui Sui was about to speak when Guan Weizhi spoke first, "Don't worry, Mr. Han. The Zhonghe Foundation has invested in Miss Qiao's mainland company."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the conference room gasped, their eyes filled with shock.
A hint of surprise flashed across Han Chen's eyes.
No wonder this little girl is so confident, it turns out she has capital backing her.
The more he looked at the relationship between the two, the more complicated it seemed, and he couldn't help but feel a little restless.
After solving this big problem, the only thing left is one of the obligations that Qiao Susu needs to fulfill after losing the bet, which the lawyer said is not fair.
"Isn't it ridiculous that you ask my client to become Han Chen's personal secretary?"
"This is what we want, Miss Qiao. If Mr. Han remembers correctly, it was you who said we could set any conditions."
Qiao Susu was stunned. She really didn't expect Han Chen to put forward such a condition.
"I was referring to business conditions, not personal ones."
She was a little baffled.
Han Chen seemed to have nothing to do with this matter and was playing with the baseball in his hand.
And his lawyer is still arguing.
Qiao Susu looked at the time and saw that there was still one hour before the annihilation.
"Okay, I'll sign."
She decisively picked up the pen and signed her name.
Guan Weizi was too late to stop her.
Han Chen raised his eyebrows and smiled, then signed neatly.
"I look forward to your performance."
