"Can."
Lin Jingyu knew that TV dramas were not as profitable as movies.
The TV series is designed to be a long-term, steady business, and its most important function is to enhance the company's reputation and promote new stars.
"Okay, I'll have someone draft the treaty in a moment, and then we'll sign the agreement."
"I will follow Mr. Shao's arrangements."
...
An hour later.
Lin Jingyu left Shaw Brothers with Mr. Jin Ming, carrying a check.
"I underestimated you, girl."
Looking at the people around him, Mr. Jinming couldn't help but sigh.
He thought he needed to personally intervene to persuade Mr. Shao to agree to buy the TV series.
I never expected that he was the one who led the way.
The little girl solved the problem herself.
He gave a direct order: "From now on, if you need anything, you can entertain yourself. Don't drag me out anymore. You can get things done just fine without me."
“It’s different.”
Lin Jingyu smiled broadly, "With you by my side, Uncle, I feel confident and courageous. Most importantly, things will go very smoothly."
"Look at what you're saying."
Mr. Jin Ming laughed in exasperation, and nodded vaguely with his hand, "Do you think I'm some kind of clay idol in a temple?"
"What clay Buddha? This is clearly a real Buddha."
"Stop trying to amuse me. You'll have to handle this yourself from now on."
"Alright, things that can be solved won't be troublesome. But if they can't be solved, then Uncle, you'll have to take care of them yourself."
"We'll see when the time comes. At least your company doesn't need me for the time being."
Mr. Jinming waved his hand, immediately changing the subject, "You just got back from the capital, have you heard anything?"
"Hey, Uncle, are you keeping an eye on the situation in the capital?"
Lin Jingyu looked surprised. "You don't mean to get involved too, do you?"
"I haven't thought about it."
Mr. Jin Ming shook his head. "I'm asking on behalf of someone else. I want to know what the higher-ups are thinking. Since they're preparing to promote economic development, some people have their eyes on the mainland and want to switch their business to the mainland."
"Looks like everyone has a good eye!"
Lin Jingyu smiled faintly.
She already knew that the merchants from Xiangdu wanted to make their mark in the domestic market, so she wasn't surprised to hear the news.
He raised an eyebrow at the person in front of him. "I don't know if they can establish a presence in the country, but I will return to Beijing in the second half of the year to begin developing a metropolis."
"you?"
Mr. Jin Ming looked surprised. "You've been transferred back again?"
"It's not really a transfer back, it's just that I'm going back to participate."
Lin Jingyu did not reveal that she was a 'leader'.
He continued, "As for whether the higher-ups will release him, they will consider it; I really don't know."
"If you go back and participate..."
Mr. Jin Ming remained silent, clearly deep in thought.
However, no one mentioned it again.
Back at the newspaper office.
Lin Jingyu received another generous payment for her writing.
In addition to the revenue from the publication of the first book, there were also royalties from the second book, which added up to a considerable sum.
Although her novels may not be considered masterpieces, they are quite well-known in Hong Kong.
It should be said that it is quite popular among the citizens of Xiangdu.
The newspaper stopped accepting other people's articles and focused solely on exploiting her.
Having countless online novels in her possession, she wasn't afraid of being fleeced; on the contrary, she was quite happy.
As long as these books cultivate a fan base, they will be well-received when adapted into TV series.
Just like Mr. Jin Ming's novels, not only are the novels classics, but the TV series adapted from them are also classics.
Besides boosting his fame and making actors popular, it also allows him to make a fortune.
Lin Jingyu is also preparing to take this path, and she believes she will eventually reap the rewards.
While she was busy.
A high-end villa.
There are a few foreigners sitting here.
The foreigner in the white suit had a fierce killing intent in his eyes. "The Japanese can't stop the rise of the Eastern Lion. It seems we need to pay a price."
"The Japanese devils just wanted to use someone else to do their dirty work."
The foreigner in the blue suit looked disdainful. "Why should we do something so thankless?"
"Czech Republic, you're oversimplifying things."
The foreigner in the black suit gave the foreigner in the blue suit a cold smile, "This old lion from the East is preparing to take back Xiangdu and has begun negotiations with the royal family."
If we don't take action, we may very well lose our colonial rule over Xiangdu.
Ladies and gentlemen, do you want to be expelled from Xiangdu and return to our place to compete with others again?
"Sydov, are you kidding me?"
The foreigner in the white suit sitting next to me looked serious, clearly shocked by the news.
"How could I joke about something like this?"
The foreigner named Sydov sneered, "The royal family received an official letter from the old lion of the East, and they must discuss the issue of Xiangdu's return."
"This matter..."
The foreigner in the white suit had a terribly gloomy face. "The royal family definitely doesn't want to return Xiangdu. I heard that the treaty they signed did indeed state that it would be returned after ninety-nine years."
The old lion is now weak and impoverished; we must not allow them to rise again, we must not allow them to take back Xiangdu.
“Your Excellency, we cannot yet make decisions on behalf of the royal family.”
The white-haired foreigner revealed a wicked smile, "However, Xiangdu is our territory. Even if the royal family wants to return it, we cannot agree."
"De Niro, do you have a solution?"
The white-suited foreigner narrowed his eyes, looking at the gloomy man. "If your method can prevent Xiangdu from returning, I can apply to the royal family to elevate your title."
"I like this reward."
