Chapter 163: The vest fell off, Lin Xiamo's crisis (please subscribe)
"able!"
“Yes!”
The female salesperson nodded repeatedly.
The real estate industry is in a downturn at present, and housing prices have been falling. It is natural to negotiate a discount for a house with such a high total price.
Today's real estate developers are not afraid of low prices, but are afraid that the houses cannot be sold.
However, Director Lin's eyes widened suddenly: Buy it now?
A house worth more than 17 million!
Why does it seem like buying a cabbage?
“Mr. Shen, let’s go back to the sales office and talk!”
"The price will satisfy you."
The saleswoman's face was full of smiles. If she could sell a house worth more than 17 million yuan, she would get a considerable commission.
The group returned to the sales center, and on the way, Lin Moxuan deliberately called Shen Qiushan to the back: “Qiushan, isn’t this too hasty?”
"It's not easy for you to make money, and the income from writing books is not stable. It's hard to say whether there will be follow-up income. It's not cost-effective to spend all the money on a house."
Lin Moxuan felt that Chen Qiushan was getting too proud and didn't know how to spend the money he made.
"Dad, I make a lot more money than what's reported in the media."
"You don't have to worry about the subsequent income. This house price is still within my affordable range."
Shen Qiushan explained seriously.
"Okay, you earn your own money, so make your own decision."
"But don't forget, there are Xiaoxiao and Yanran! Especially Xiaoxiao, he's a boy, he will have many places to spend money in the future!"
Lin Moxuan gave one more instruction and then said nothing more.
Return to the sales center.
The four were invited directly into the VIP lounge.
Before we formally discussed the price, the coffee table was filled with tea, snacks and fruits.
The female salesperson also called her direct supervisor, Manager Liu, who was in charge of sales.
"Are you Mr. Shen who just won the Nebula Award?"
Manager Liu actually recognized Shen Qiushan at first sight.
"I don't dare to be a teacher."
Shen Qiushan waved his hand modestly, he was quite surprised to be recognized here.
"Teacher Shen is too modest. You have already won the Nebula Award!"
"Don't even call me teacher, calling me master is not an exaggeration!"
Manager Liu was worthy of being the leader of the sales department. He was good at chatting and observing people's expressions. After learning about Shen Qiushan's identity as a "famous writer", he took the initiative to give him a 9.2% discount and eliminated the extra 100,000 yuan.
The price of the house went from 17.5 million to 16 million, saving 1.5 million directly!
"Teacher Shen, you are a famous writer who has brought glory to our country. Otherwise, you wouldn't be able to get such a big discount. I can show you the prices here."
Regardless of whether it is true or not, Manager Liu gave enough face to Shen Qiushan as a "famous writer", as if he would not be able to get such a big discount without this identity.
Finally, both parties reached a happy agreement.
Shen Qiushan purchased this luxury house worth 16 million yuan in full!
The following week.
Shen Qiushan spent almost all of his spare time dealing with the follow-up matters of "The Three-Body Civilization" winning the award.
The staff of the Nebula Award Organizing Committee flew to Sanjiang specially to hold an award ceremony. In addition to the trophy and certificate, the most important thing was of course the bonus check!
The reason why the Nebula Award Organizing Committee flew to China specially, in addition to presenting the awards, was more importantly to obtain the overseas distribution rights and film and television copyrights of "The Three-Body Civilization".
After negotiations.
In the end, Shen Qiushan only signed an overseas distribution agency contract with the other party.
Because the price offered by the other party for the film and television copyright is relatively low, only 5 million US dollars!
Shen Qiushan is not in a hurry to use the money right now. His idea is to wait until the book is fully released on the market to see the actual sales and readers' feedback.
If sales explode, reader feedback is also very good.
It shouldn’t be a problem to double the price of 5 million US dollars!
You know, the film and television rights of an online novel like "I Really Don't Want to Be Reborn" were sold for 10 million!
What’s more, it won the Nebula Award and is a hard science fiction film called "The Three-Body Civilization"!
Therefore, there is no rush to sell the film and television copyright, and we will wait and see.
Monday morning.
The course that the first class of the Department of Electrical Engineering will take is Electromagnetic Fields and Wireless Technology.
When Shen Qiushan arrived at the classroom, most of the students had already arrived. Since school had started for a while, most of the students had become familiar with each other.
Especially since Class 1 of the Department of Electrical Engineering was almost a class of monks, it was easier for the boys to get along with each other. When Shen Qiushan walked into the classroom, the boys were gathered in groups of three or five, chatting excitedly about some hot topic.
Seeing Shen Qiushan coming, his roommate Feng Sicong quickly waved at him: "Old Shen, check out this video!"
"Everyone says this person is Secretary Lin. You are so familiar with her, do you think she is?"
Feng Sicong put his mobile phone in front of Shen Qiushan. The background of the video was a bar.
On the stage, a girl band was performing. The lead singer was tall with a charming figure. She wore a white suspender top with a distressed short denim jacket on the outside, high-waisted wide-leg pants on the bottom, and a pair of thick-soled Martin boots with a row of shiny rivets on her feet.
She has short pink hair, the color of which complements her lipstick and nail polish, and her every move reveals her charm!
"It's definitely Secretary Lin!"
"Some netizens have already dug up other videos for comparison. The mole on the clavicle is very obvious and cannot be faked."
Before Shen Qiushan could speak, Bao Beibei spoke from the side.
Shen Qiushan shook his head: "Probably not."
"They just look somewhat similar!"
After that, Shen Qiushan sat down in his seat, and then said to the two of them: “Don’t pay attention to gossip all day, don’t you all want to join the student union?”
"The student union's recruitment work begins this week!"
After hearing what Shen Qiushan said, the two of them really shifted the topic to joining the student union.
In the eyes of Feng Sicong and Bao Beibei, joining the student union is a very cool thing to do.
And Shen Qiushan silently sent a WeChat message to Lin Xiamo: It seems that the fact that you were singing outside is about to be exposed!
The person in the video just now was of course Lin Xiamo, and Shen Qiushan recognized her at a glance.
He knew that Lin Xiamo was singing in a band outside. After all, when Lin Xiamo had her birthday a few days ago, he had dinner with the other three band members.
However, he was shocked by Lin Xiamo's pink hair, which was too different from reality.
If Shen Qiushan hadn't recognized the other three members of the band, he wouldn't have been sure that the pink-haired lead singer was Lin Xiamo!
Shen Qiushan was quite surprised when he learned that his second sister-in-law was still playing in a band, but he didn't expect that the contrast between Lin Xiamo's performance and reality would be so great!
Compared with the real Lin Xiamo, she seems to be more charming on the stage with her outspoken personality and short pink hair!
Well, it may also be because most men like "cosplay"!
For example, couples who have been together for a long time.
There wasn't much passion at first, and the woman suddenly changed into a QQ nurse outfit...
The man will definitely yell like Li Yunlong in Ping An City! !
WeChat message sent.
No response was received.
At this time, an old professor wearing glasses walked into the classroom. He was the teacher of the "Electromagnetic Fields and Wireless Technology" course of the first class of the Department of Electrical Engineering.
He is also a well-known expert in the field of electronic information technology in China, his name is Zhao Ruihai.
Experts of his level can basically be found in universities like Sanjiang University or Peking University and Tsinghua University.
They simply wouldn't go to a lower level institution.
The school's parking lot.
After Lin Xiamo parked the car, she took out her phone and looked at the unread messages.
It turned out to be sent by Shen Qiushan, and he said that her singing was about to be exposed.
Lin Xiamo frowned immediately. In fact, from her personal point of view, it was nothing to have the matter of her singing in a band exposed.
The main issue is her father Lin Moxuan. If he knew that she was still forming a band, he might not do anything extreme!
She sent a message to Shen Qiushan to inquire about the situation, but received no response, presumably the other party was in class.
Arrived at the office.
Lin Xiamo wiped the desk casually. Before she sat down, a young teacher from the Youth League Committee knocked on the office door.
"Secretary Lin, Secretary Wu wants to see you."
"Okay, got it."
Lin Xiamo responded, and the Secretary Wu the other party was referring to was the Youth League Committee Secretary Wu Fang.
She is also her immediate superior. However, since they started working there, the two have gotten along very harmoniously without any disputes, and Wu Fang also takes good care of her.
Of course, Lin Xiamo also knew that this kind of care was largely out of consideration for her father's face.
Although Sanjiang University is not under the jurisdiction of the Sanjiang Municipal Education Bureau, they are all part of the education system after all, so it is inevitable that there will be overlaps and places where they can be used.
It is necessary to maintain good relations.
Lin Xiamo went to Wu Fang's office immediately.
"Secretary Wu, you are looking for me."
"Well, sit down and talk."
Wu Fang pointed to the reception sofa. She was a middle-aged woman in her early 40s with short, neat hair. She was wearing a brown suit and a pair of black half-heeled leather shoes.
"Secretary Wu, is there any work you want to arrange?"
After sitting down, Lin Xiamo asked directly.
“It’s not work.”
"Watch this video first."
Wu Fang didn't beat around the bush and handed her phone to Lin Xiamo. The video playing in it was the one that Feng Sicong had just shown to Shen Qiushan.
Lin Xiamo frowned. In fact, when she came here, she had also thought about whether it might be this matter.
Because Shen Qiushan specifically sent her a WeChat message, saying that the fact that he had formed a singing band might be exposed.
Therefore, she was not completely unprepared.
"It's me."
After pondering for a moment, Lin Xiamo nodded slightly.
At this time, there is no point in trying to be stubborn. The video has already reached Wu Fang, which shows that it has been widely circulated.
Seeing Lin Xiamo admit it so readily, Wu Fang immediately took the phone back and said with a frown: "Secretary Lin, as far as I know, you should not be short of money."
"So singing is just a hobby?"
Lin Xiamo nodded and answered truthfully: "I formed a band when I was in college. After graduation, the band disbanded for a while, and then we reunited and occasionally went out to sing."
"This is my personal hobby, and it can be considered a pastime after work!"
Wu Fang nodded and frowned, "In theory, this is nothing, because our school does not interfere with faculty and staff taking part-time jobs outside the school."
"But the location of your part-time job, as well as your attire and performance style, have caused quite a bit of controversy online. Just now, Principal Zhu called to inquire about the situation."
"Based on my experience, the school will most likely not allow this kind of thing to happen again. Principal Zhu or other leaders will probably talk to you..."
Wu Fang's words were very sincere, because she still admired Lin Xiamo very much, even apart from the relationship with Lin Moxuan.
In her eyes, Lin Xiamo is also a good partner and a good subordinate.
Since joining the company, Lin Xiamo has shared a lot of work with her, and she has completed the tasks assigned to her very well.
Therefore, even if this happened, Wu Fang's first thought was to understand the situation and then think about how to solve the problem.
"If this incident causes trouble to the school or affects the school's reputation, I will be responsible for it!"
Lin Xiamo expressed her opinion solemnly.
Wu Fang smiled and waved her hand: "Now Principal Zhu just wants me to understand the situation first."
“It’s not yet time to be irresponsible!”
"I don't think this is a big deal, but I'm afraid that public opinion will spread and put pressure on the school..."
"When the time comes, there must be an explanation!"
Lin Xiamo knew that what Secretary Wu said was true and he had no intention of deceiving her.
"Secretary Lin, I already understand the situation."
"You should go back and do your work first."
"By the way, you can also check out the video and discussion about this incident on Kuaiyin."
After understanding the situation, Wu Fang gave Lin Xiamo some instructions and then let her leave.
Return to your office.
Lin Xiamo immediately opened Kuaiyin and searched for some keywords. Immediately, several videos of her performances in bars or livehouses popped up.
Among these videos, the one with the best data has received 150,000 likes and more than 20,000 comments!
Looking at the various videos on Kuaiyin, Lin Xiamo's brows were immediately twisted into knots. She didn't expect that she could attract so much attention just by singing casually.
Among these bloggers who posted videos, Lin Xiamo also saw a familiar ID: reporter Wang Zhixin!
Lin Xiamo clearly remembered that this reporter named Wang Zhixin had been criticizing Shen Qiushan and Sanjiang High School.
Later, Shen Qiushan became the top scorer in the college entrance examination, but he was also hit hard by the traffic, and a large group of netizens scolded him.
After Shen Qiushan won the Nebula Award, more people started to scold him.
In recent days, Wang Zhixin's Kuaiyin account has not been updated. Unexpectedly, when he updated it again, he did not talk about Shen Qiushan, but criticized Lin Xiamo with very sharp words.
"As a university teacher, he completely disregarded the teaching style and ethics of teachers, disregarded his personal image, and even disregarded the image of the school!"
“If students rush to imitate me and take pride in it, how should we deal with it?”
"If all university teachers are like this, how can they educate people?"
“…”
