The next day.
Su Yu got up early.
Last night, Gong Juren sent him a message saying he had finished his commercial performance and returned to school, asking Su Yu to go out for dinner today.
However, Su Yu was busy today.
When he heard that Su Yu was going to the company, Gong Juren insisted on driving him there.
Su Yu thought he was a kind and good person.
Knock, knock, knock.
A knock sounded at the door.
Su Yu put on his clothes and went to open the door.
"Hehe, Brother Yu, I brought you some milk tea. The weather has turned cool recently, so I asked the store clerk to heat it up for me." Gong Juren entered and took out a cup of milk tea from his embrace.
"Thanks." Su Yu took it and pierced the seal of the milk tea with a straw.
Mmm, his favorite matcha flavor.
"By the way, I also brought two braised pork buns. Eat them while they're hot." He took out two more buns from his pocket.
"Little Gong, have you eaten?" Su Yu took the buns and took a bite.
"Yes, I ate before I came," Gong Juren chuckled.
"Alright, let's go to the company," Su Yu nodded, holding the milk tea and buns, and walked out of the dorm.
Gong Juren quickly followed.
After they left.
Zhao De and Zhou Tao sat up from their beds.
"How was it? Did you learn anything?"
"Learned shit. His flattery skills have reached the pinnacle, reaching a state of flattering without appearing to flatter. It's natural and doesn't feel intentional at all. Anyway, I don't think I can learn it..."
"Take your time. I'll treat this kid Gong Juren to a meal another day and let him teach us a few tricks."
...
Xinghui Entertainment.
President's Office.
"Mr. Chen, did you need me for something?" Zhao Yuan pushed open the office door.
Chen Yong sat in his chair, quietly looking at the computer screen, and did not reply.
"If you don't need me, I'll be going back."
Now that the company had been acquired, Chen Yong, despite being the president, was just an employee. She didn't need to indulge his bad habits anymore.
"Wait, people from Xuandong Entertainment are arriving soon."
Chen Yong put down his mouse and shook his head with a wry smile.
Zhao Yuan was becoming more and more temperamental. Previously, he could still put on airs, but now, as long as he showed the slightest sign of it, Zhao Yuan would turn and leave without giving him any face.
"Chen Yong, I've already told you that Lin Yanyu and Su Yu are in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship."
Zhao Yuan was stunned for a moment, then spoke in a cold tone to remind him.
"Are you afraid I'll force Su Yu to sell the copyright?" Chen Yong understood the implicit meaning of her words.
In her heart, was he still just a profit-seeking businessman?
"I'm just reminding you that Su Yu won't sell the copyright to this song. It's useless even if you force him. Be careful not to push him too hard, or he might leave Xinghui."
"Blue and White Porcelain" was sold by Su Yu to Lin Yanyu.
And Lin Yanyu confessed to Su Yu on the championship stage. After Su Yu agreed, they became boyfriend and girlfriend.
Who could buy the copyright?
"There's no point in you telling me this. Agreeing to negotiate with Xuandong is the decision from above," Chen Yong said with a wry smile.
"Are you saying that the head office wants Su Yu to sell the copyright?"
Zhao Yuan's expression changed.
She didn't expect things to be so complicated.
Although Chen Yong was profit-seeking, Zhao Yuan could still argue with him based on their years of acquaintance.
If it were the head office, it would be difficult.
"Zhao Yuan, you're usually such a calm person. Why do you get flustered whenever Su Yu is involved?"
"Because his talent is enough for me to treat him this way."
Zhao Yuan took a deep breath.
With the release of "Blue and White Porcelain," Su Yu could directly compete with ace producers among ancient style song producers.
Moreover, Zhao Yuan knew that his talent was far beyond this.
"To be honest, I initially refused, but the head office suddenly called and asked me to agree to talk. However, we have to wait for Lin Yanyu to come before we talk," Chen Yong sighed.
"Why?"
Zhao Yuan looked stunned.
"Do you know who called from the head office?"
"Who?"
"The president's assistant. She said that we should take this opportunity to do our best to poach Lin Yanyu to our company, and that whether to sell the song copyright or not should be decided by Su Yu. That's why I asked you to call him yesterday."
Chen Yong finished speaking, a strange expression flashed across his face.
"The head office wants to poach Lin Yanyu?"
"That's right, and without regard for the cost. They also want us to act discreetly..." Chen Yong said, looking at the stunned Zhao Yuan.
He was also confused when he first heard the news.
"Interesting..."
After a long while, a strange curve appeared at the corner of Zhao Yuan's mouth.
A knock sounded at the door.
"Mr. Chen, the people from Xuandong Entertainment have arrived."
The assistant entered and said to Chen Yong.
...
Conference Room.
Fan Jian sat in his chair, with his assistant next to him holding a stack of documents.
Opposite them were Lin Yanyu and her agent Li Fang.
"Since everyone is here, let's begin," Chen Yong said, sitting in the main seat, with Zhao Yuan standing behind him.
"Heh, then I'll speak first." Fan Jian chuckled and reached for the documents in his assistant's hand.
"As Mr. Chen must know, our purpose in coming here is that the song 'Blue and White Porcelain' is a masterpiece. Our company really likes it, so I would like to buy the full copyright of this song from your company."
After speaking, he looked up at Chen Yong.
Chen Yong smiled and nodded, then asked Lin Yanyu beside him, "Miss Lin, are you also here for the copyright?"
"That's right," Lin Yanyu nodded in response.
Her expression was somewhat tired, looking like she hadn't rested well.
Xuangdong Entertainment's willingness to spend fifty million yuan to buy the copyright did surprise her.
Moreover, if it was about money, her chances of winning were slim.
Because after she left home, she relied entirely on herself and never asked her family for a penny.
The five million yuan she spent to buy the song earlier was also earned by herself. Currently, she only had less than eight million yuan in her hands, so she couldn't compare with Fan Jian at all.
However, even if she couldn't win, she didn't want to give up like this. At least she had to try.
She felt that Tingyu was not someone who loved money. For the two million yuan he sold "Chi Ling" to her mother, and the five million yuan for "Blue and White Porcelain," he could have sold these songs for much more.
"Hmph, overestimating yourself," Fan Jian sneered.
He was full of confidence this time.
Not only did he have a sufficient budget, but he also had internal connections.
"Since both of you want to buy the copyright to 'Blue and White Porcelain,' according to industry rules, who will negotiate the price with me?" Chen Yong asked, spreading his hands.
Generally, when both sides want to buy the copyright, it is most beneficial for the production company.
Competition means that a good price can be negotiated.
"Heh, I'll do it. She doesn't have the money to negotiate with you," Fan Jian said with a confident smile.
"I won't beat around the bush. To show my sincerity, I'll let you know my budget. I have fifty million yuan for this negotiation. If Mr. Chen agrees, we'll sign the contract immediately."
He directly revealed his bottom price.
This approach was wrong in terms of price negotiation.
But he didn't care at all.
Because he had already obtained Su Yu's information from a friend.
He was just a young kid, still in his first year of college.
No wonder he sold such a good song as "Blue and White Porcelain" to Lin Yanyu for five million yuan.
Fifty million yuan, even if Su Yu didn't agree, his company would.
