"What is it, Ye? Tell me quickly."
Seeing that Ye Chen had spoken, the principal urged him anxiously.
"It's a small matter. About two months from now, I need to go to the capital for some time, so I need to take a leave of absence for a while. It will be a bit long."
Ye Chen answered.
Ye Chen needed to prepare for his trip to the capital in a while.
Asking for leave was a trivial matter; Ye Chen had only planned to inform his counselor or the head of his department.
However, since the principal had asked, Ye Chen answered.
"That's it..."
The principal thought Ye Chen was going to say something.
"No problem, Ye, you can go ahead and do what you need to do. You don't need to come here. I'll handle things at the school."
The principal waved his hand.
"Is there anything else besides this?"
This matter is not enough to repay Ye Chen's favor. Let alone Ye Chen taking a leave of absence for a period of time, even taking a semester's leave would be a small matter.
"Not at the moment."
Ye Chen answered.
"Then think about it some more. If you come up with something, contact me anytime and I'll help you."
The principal assured Ye Chen.
After exchanging a few polite words with the principal, Ye Chen left the office.
Reaching a secluded corner of the stairwell, Ye Chen turned on his phone and saw that it was indeed a game message.
【bite】
[Challenge issued: Accept the principal's request to give a lecture to senior students, thereby attracting outstanding graduates to your industry.]
[Challenge Reward: Earnings Cap Increase Card (Once used, doubles the earnings cap; can only be used in one of the following entertainment industries: film, animation, games, comics, etc.)]
Challenge Reward: 232 Experience Points
[Challenge Reward: 122 Mall Points]
"Earnings cap increase card?"
Ye Chen muttered to himself.
This is the first time the game has offered such a reward, doubling the cap – that's amazing!
It's a bit of a shame that this [Profit Cap Increase Card] is targeted and cannot be used in all industries.
Even so, it is still very precious.
Now a new problem has arisen: once the challenge is completed, where should I use this [Earnings Cap Increase Card]?
Currently, in addition to comics, Ye Chen has also been involved in the animation, gaming, and film industries, some on a large scale and others on a smaller scale.
First, let's exclude animation. Ye Chen's animation industry is very small, and compared with other industries, it's insignificant. Even if it were increased tenfold, it wouldn't make much difference, let alone double it.
As for movies, Ye Chen's new movie is almost finished, so it's something he could consider.
However, the revenue from a movie is quite limited. Even if it becomes the highest-grossing movie in the world, let alone the highest-grossing movie in China, it doesn't seem to generate much money.
As far as Ye Chen can remember, the highest-grossing film in the world right now is Avatar, which has grossed around 3 billion US dollars so far.
That translates to just over 20 billion Chinese yuan.
Putting aside whether Ye Chen's new movie will be a hit, even if it is, even if it becomes extremely popular, it will only gross over 20 billion yuan at the box office.
Using this [Revenue Cap Increase Card], the amount is only over 40 billion.
Only 40 billion? That's too little.
After thinking for a while, Ye Chen finally decided to use this [Earnings Cap Increase Card] on his game "Login to the Future".
Previously, the game estimated that the minimum profit for "Login to the Future" would be around 100 billion. Now, the profit has doubled to 200 billion, and that is still the minimum profit.
This is the only way to maximize the effectiveness of the [Earnings Cap Increase Card].
Having made his decision, Ye Chen put away his phone and left.
The next day, Xu Binyao, the eldest son of the Xu family in Beijing, arrived in Shanghai and met with Sun Xuguang.
"Where is that kid? Take me to see him."
As soon as he arrived, Xu Binyao said impatiently that he had other things to do and that it would be best to deal with that big problem of the kid from Shanghai as soon as possible.
“Um…Young Master Xu, I reckon that kid is so confident because he must have something to rely on. Should you make some preparations before you go to see him?”
Sun Xuguang spoke up, hoping that Xu Binyao would not be so reckless.
"Is it really necessary to go through all that trouble to prepare?"
Xu Binyao was extremely disdainful.
"He's just a kid from Shanghai. Don't even mention him. Even the number one playboy in Shanghai would respectfully call me Young Master Xu."
"Do you think I need to prepare anything to deal with that kid?!"
Xu Binyao was extremely confident. He didn't even put the number one playboy in Shanghai in his eyes, let alone others.
The Xu family of Beijing is no laughing matter!
In Xu Binyao's prediction, as long as he went there, met that kid, and revealed his identity, that kid would probably be so scared that he would run away with his tail between his legs.
As for that game with unlimited potential, he'll probably just give it away, or hand over a large portion of his shares.
Wouldn't that easily solve the problem? Why bother with any prior preparations?!
The name "Xu Family of the Capital" is enough for them!
"good."
Upon hearing Xu Binyao's words, Sun Xuguang immediately lost all his worries.
That makes sense. That kid is probably confident because he has some influence in Shanghai and thinks he's a local big shot. But what about outside of Shanghai?
Young Master Xu doesn't even put the number one playboy in Shanghai in his eyes, so that kid is even less of a threat.
"Prepare the car..."
Sun Xuguang shouted.
A few minutes later, Xu Binyao and Sun Xuguang got into the car and headed straight for where Ye Chen was.
On the way there, Xu Binyao also made a phone call, telling his other group of henchmen to hurry up.
Xu Binyao came to Shanghai this time because he had something more important to do; dealing with this Shanghai kid was just a side matter.
As soon as he got off the plane, Xu Binyao sent most of his underlings to pave the way for that important matter, while he himself led the rest of his men to Sun Xuguang's place.
"Brother Yao, please don't worry."
Xu Binyao can rest assured about his younger brother.
"Well, I should be able to come find you guys in about half an hour. Keep an eye out for me."
Xu Binyao glanced at the time and estimated it.
The half hour Xu Binyao mentioned was mostly wasted on the way; he only had one minute left to deal with that kid from Shanghai.
Time passed slowly, and as Xu Binyao waited, they finally arrived at their destination.
