Chapter 237: Can't Let Go But Dare Not Get Close
Yang Miao goes to bed early because he has to go to school.
The next morning, she accidentally opened her phone on the way to school and saw that Fang Li had sent her a message at around 11 o'clock last night.
Fang Li felt that it was a bit strange to ask Han Chunxi directly, so she asked Yang Miao to ask her mother in the name of her friend's idol chasing.
"friend?"
There was doubt in Yang Miao's eyes. Wasn't this excuse a bit too old-fashioned?
She replied to Fang Li: "Aunt, is your friend a man or a woman? What does he do?"
Fang Li had just gotten up and was about to go to the bathroom to wash up when she received Yang Miao's message.
As soon as I saw it, my heart skipped a beat.
This girl is very cunning, and we must not let her know that she is asking on behalf of her senior.
Fang Li thought for a moment and replied, "Of course it's a girl. Like me, she works behind the scenes in film and television."
Yang Miao: "Is that so? She's not from your studio, is she?"
Fang Li's heart tightened, and she quickly denied it: "No, she works in another company and is not in Beijing. She wants to chase celebrities but has no way to do so, so she came to me. I just asked for her."
Yang Miao sat in the car, eyebrows raised. "If you're a fan, why ask about other people's personal relationships? How about I get you a few autographed photos? Don't fans love those? A signed autograph is also fine."
Fang Li was about to reply with the autographed photo but she didn't need to. She had typed half of the words when she suddenly saw what she had said above and quickly deleted it.
How could a fan refuse an autograph from their idol?
She replied, "Okay, thank you for your help. Please ask my friend about it when the time comes. She's just a little curious and will definitely not tell anyone about it."
Yang Miao touched his chin, looking at the message that was being typed and had been flashing for a long time before being replied to, with the corners of his mouth curled up.
Aunt, aunt, your ability to create something out of nothing is not very mature.
Is this because they are afraid that if they ask Ms. Han directly, her uncle will also know, so they took such a long detour to ask her?
She curled her lips and replied, "Of course I trust my aunt's friends. Don't worry, I'll take care of this matter. I'll call my mother's assistant later."
Yang Miao moved quickly. Fang Li had just finished cleaning up and sat down in the restaurant to eat breakfast when she received the message.
"Jingsen has indeed been very close to a female artist recently, but he hasn't reported this to the company yet, so she's probably not his girlfriend yet."
After Fang Li arrived at the studio, she told Zhou Yufan the news immediately.
Zhou Yufan sat behind his desk with no change in expression.
Fang Li: "What are you going to do next?"
"......have no idea."
Fang Li stood up, pulled out the chair in front of his desk and sat down. "Is Jingsen's new play about to be finished? He should be returning to Beijing soon. Why don't we arrange a time for us to get together when he comes back?"
Zhou Yufan pursed his lips, "Why, you still want to try to tie the knot for us in person?"
Fang Li raised her eyebrows: "I dare to pull the trigger, but the premise is that you dare to lead the way, senior?"
Zhou Yufan looked at her and shook his head. "You're right. I don't dare."
He took a deep breath and said, "If he knew what I was thinking, I'm afraid we wouldn't even be able to be friends anymore."
"So what should I do? Are you just going to keep watching from afar, unable to let go but afraid to get close, torturing yourself like this?"
"......" Zhou Yufan was silent.
The office grew quiet.
At this time, there was a knock on the door.
Ji Tiantian pushed the door open and came in.
"Mr. Xu, Editor-in-Chief Zhou, someone is visiting."
Fang Li looked over and asked, "Who?"
"The other party said he was from Xingyu Media and wanted to meet with Liyun's boss to discuss something."
"Xingyu Media...Senior, have you heard of this company?" Fang Li turned around and looked at Zhou Yufan.
Zhou Yufan rested his hands on his chin and thought for a moment, "I haven't heard of it. It must be a new company, or it doesn't have much scale in the industry."
"Do you want to meet?"
"Yes, he is a guest, why not meet him?"
Zhou Yufan stood up, buttoned his suit, and walked out. Just as he reached the door, he stopped and turned back to Fang Li and said, "You don't have to show up yet. I want to hear what the specific matter is first."
"good."
Zhou Yufan took his people to the reception room to talk, and Fang Li then went into the tea room next door.
There is a hollow partition between the tea room and the reception room, which is used to place some handicrafts and tea cans. It can barely block the view but cannot block the sound.
Fang Li pretended to pour a cup of coffee and leaned behind the partition, listening quietly.
Both parties first introduced themselves. There were two people on the other side, who said they were the heads of Xingyu Media. One was named Shi Hang and the other was named Sun Jin. Then they went straight to the point and stated their purpose.
"I heard from the platform that the copyright of Divine Emperor Dao was bought by your studio. I wonder if you can resell the copyright of this novel to us?"
The person who spoke was the young man who was close to Zhou Yufan, probably named Shi Hang.
He was wearing black jeans and a gray sweatshirt, and a pair of royal green-framed glasses on his handsome face. He looked like a college student with a bit of personality.
"Resell?" Zhou Yufan looked at the two boys across from him who looked no older than 25 and shook his head. "Sorry, we don't sell the copyright."
A hint of disappointment quickly flashed across their faces.
"But..." Zhou Yufan changed the subject, and a hint of hope suddenly appeared on their faces.
"Could you two please tell me what you plan to do with the copyright to this book?"
Shi Hang glanced at Sun Jin beside him, then nervously clenched his hands on his knees and said, "To be honest, we were following the book Divine Emperor Dao when we were in college. We thought about filming it back then. Now that we've graduated and finally established our own company, we plan to adapt this book into our first film and television IP since the establishment of our company. I just didn't expect that the copyright..."
Seeing that the two were honest, Zhou Yufan asked directly, "How much do you plan to pay to buy back the copyright of this book?"
Seeing him give in, Sun Jin, who was standing next to Shi Hang, immediately said, "I heard your company spent 300,000 to buy the copyright. We're willing to add an extra 100,000. Is 400,000 okay?"
"Four hundred thousand..."
"If you think it's too little, we can add another 50,000. 450,000 is the highest price we can accept right now."
Young, passionate, and impatient.
These two people have all the characteristics of recent college graduates.
Being so impatient to reveal all your cards will lead to repeated oppression, and in the end you may end up with nothing.
Fang Li looked at the two young faces through the partition, picked up her phone and sent a message to Zhou Yufan.
"Ask them how much start-up capital they have prepared for this project and whether there are any plans for follow-up investment."
After receiving the message, Zhou Yufan opened his phone and took a look.
He quickly put down his phone and asked the two of them calmly.
Now, the two seemed to realize something, and they looked at each other without saying a word.
