After Li Mengqi finished speaking, she stared straight at Lin Chen.
Lin Chen quickly coughed to change the subject.
"Well, to be honest, this guy, Big Cannon Bro, has some skill in his approach. If Tencent really does this, we don't really have any good solutions. QQ Live can make a fortune just by selling the broadcasting rights."
"Huh? What do we do then? Are we really going to cooperate with them?"
"Cooperate? What a joke. Do you think I'm the kind of person who would pay protection money? But this matter is a bit strange. Logically speaking, given Brother Ma's arrogant personality, after fighting with us for so long, it's impossible for him to cooperate with us."
"So what you mean is?"
"Okay, senior, why don't you talk to him again and try to find out whether this is his idea or Brother Ma's idea?"
"OK."
Just as Li Mengqi stood up to leave Lin Chen's office, the office door was suddenly pushed open.
"Lin Chen, take a look at the information of a few newcomers. I'm a little unsure about them..."
An Rou happened to walk in at that moment and saw the stockings on the table.
The worst thing is when the air suddenly goes quiet...
"Well, boss, I'll get back to work now."
Li Mengqi blushed and ran away quickly.
When An Rou saw that Li Mengqi was still blushing, a series of images flashed through her mind.
After Li Mengqi left, An Rou walked to Lin Chen's table.
"Tsk tsk tsk, Lin Chen, you're quite the player, taking off your stockings right here in the office?"
"No, Anrou, let me explain."
"Explain what?"
"It's not what you think. Would you believe me if I said I just accidentally got her stockings wet?"
"What's there to explain? I'd love for you to find a real girlfriend."
"ah?"
“That way I won’t have to worry about my parents finding out about us. I thought you and Shen Yue would go public, but you two haven’t made any moves. I think Li Mengqi is pretty good too, slim waist, long legs, beautiful and sweet voice.”
"Ahem, what are you thinking about?"
An Rou suddenly walked forward to Lin Chen's side, leaned close to his ear and whispered something.
"I want to try on the new stockings I bought tonight..."
"Hiss!" Lin Chen instantly perked up. "If you're going to talk about this, I'm not sleepy anymore. Let me drink three cups of goji berry tea first."
"Knock knock knock..."
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
An Rou immediately moved a little further away from Lin Chen, pretending to be nonchalant.
"Please come in!"
Unexpectedly, it was Li Mengqi who walked in.
"Senior, what's wrong?"
"President Lin, I've already found out. This is indeed Zhang Dapao's personal idea. Brother Ma is probably away on a business trip and hasn't been in the company recently."
"Oh? Senior, your efficiency is amazing."
"Actually, no, the other person is quite talkative. I didn't even ask him much before he told me everything."
"Wow, this guy, you're definitely not an ordinary person."
"Boss, since it wasn't Little Ma's idea, should we still pay attention to it?"
"Of course we should pay attention. If we encounter a good guy like Brother Dapao, shouldn't we take advantage of him and sign a cooperation agreement with him? We should sign a ten-year exclusive broadcasting contract. If he refuses, we won't sign it."
"Huh? Will he agree to that?"
“If they don’t agree, we won’t sign. It’s that simple. We’ll be fair and honest with him, and we won’t cheat him. We’ll just pay him the price for a provincial satellite TV broadcast.”
"Okay, I'll try to talk to the boss."
After saying that, Li Mengqi turned around and walked out.
An Rou watched Li Mengqi's departing figure and secretly gave Lin Chen a wink.
With their tacit understanding, Lin Chen instantly read An Rou's eyes, which meant, "Such a great girl, hurry up and make your move! With that figure and those looks, she'll easily outshine all those female anchors."
Lin Chen's lips twitched, but he ignored her.
After returning to her office, Li Mengqi dialed Zhang Dapao's number again.
"Mr. Zhang, it's me again."
"Mr. Li, how did it go? Did Mr. Lin agree?"
"Oh dear, Mr. Zhang, I just finished talking to you and then went straight to find Mr. Lin. I interrupted his meeting. I've staked my entire career on this cooperation."
"Actually, there's no need to be in such a hurry, Mr. Li. What did Mr. Lin say?"
"At first, Mr. Lin didn't want to agree. Think about it, this was originally free, and suddenly you want to charge money. Nobody would be happy about that. Mr. Lin even thought about boycotting it and making all the League of Legends streamers stop commentating on your official matches, since streamers don't make a living from this anyway."
"Ah...this is a win-win situation, and it also demonstrates the professionalism of Panda TV's League of Legends."
"But Mr. Zhang, does our Panda TV platform need this kind of authority?"
Zhang Dapao broke out in a cold sweat. Indeed, it seemed that QQ Live needed the cooperation of Panda Live more, while whether Panda Live cooperated or not seemed to really matter.
"Mr. Li, if League of Legends holds international competitions in the future, Panda TV will be at a great disadvantage if it doesn't have the broadcasting rights."
"But Mr. Zhang, does our Panda TV platform need an opportunity that's not even certain?"
"Ah, this..."
Zhang Dapao became increasingly less confident as he spoke, and just as he was preparing to accept his disappointment, Li Mengqi spoke up.
"However, Mr. Zhang, I also think this cooperation is a win-win situation, so I used my personal relationship with our General Manager Lin to persuade him to agree."
"Oh? Thank you so much, Mr. Li. I'll definitely come to Shanghai to treat you to dinner another day."
Li Mengqi's lips twitched. Is this your way of expressing gratitude? There must be at least eighty or a hundred people who want to treat me to a meal. Are you treating me to a meal to thank me or to reward yourself?
"Don't rush, Mr. Zhang. Our General Manager Lin also has conditions."
"Whatever your conditions, just name them."
"Our CEO Lin's conditions aren't demanding; he just wants a one-time exclusive ten-year broadcasting rights contract with our Panda TV platform."
"Ten years? Isn't that a bit too long?"
"Mr. Zhang, look at the live streaming platforms on the market. Do you think any of them can match the scale of our Panda TV platform within ten years?"
Zhang Dapao thought to himself, "That's true. Any platform that dares to show its face will be crushed by you. Even QQ Live is on the verge of bankruptcy, so other platforms are even less likely to succeed."
"Alright then, ten years it is. What about the price?"
"Don't worry, the price will definitely not be unfair to you; it will be based on the rebroadcast price of provincial satellite TV programs."
Zhang Dapao breathed a sigh of relief. That was acceptable. Although the price wasn't high, League of Legends was just a game, and being able to sell broadcasting rights was already incredibly impressive.
Moreover, the price is now comparable to that of provincial satellite TV programs, which will surely generate a lot of buzz in the news reports.
"Okay, deal!"
