Monster Collector's Ultra Journey

Chapter 3 The First Pot of Gold
"Where did you get these photos?"

In the KCB TV station office of this world, female editor Lina looked at the photos sent by Lin Yang, raised her eyebrows, and couldn't take her eyes off the photos.

That’s right, based on his experience before traveling through time, Lin Yang discovered that many Ultra Worlds have a TV station called KCB.

The most famous world of this TV station is the Gaia world. It is the TV station where Reiko and her trio work and broadcasts a lot of news related to Ultraman.

After developing the photos, the first thing Lin Yang thought of was this TV station. Sure enough, it also existed in Max's world.

Therefore, Lin Yang decided to make this TV station his first business target.

The other party was also very sincere. After learning that Lin Yang had first-hand photos of the monster, they immediately arranged for an editor to contact Lin Yang.

"I want to find something that should not be the main point of the problem. Forgive me for being a vulgar person. I am more concerned about, how much can your company offer for these ten photos?" Lin Yang doesn't play with these empty words.

"Ten thousand." Lina is a girl who looks about the same age as Lin Yang. She is young, pretty and beautiful.

But generally speaking, there are only two situations in which a young person can be so trusted by TV station executives.

One is that she has some kind of ulterior motive, and the second is that she does have unparalleled work ability and has earned her current position on her own.

Now it seems that the second situation is very likely. He lowered the price to such a level right after opening his mouth. He is indeed an old fox.

They really treated him like a little lamb to be slaughtered.

"No, at least five hundred thousand." Without any negotiation, Lin Yang directly rejected the other party's offer.

According to the exchange rate conversion, before Lin Yang traveled through time, ten thousand yen was only equivalent to five hundred yuan in his hometown, and this world is probably not much different.

The TV station can definitely earn more than this amount by working hard to take these first-hand photos and publish them in a short period of time.

The lowest bottom line must be maintained.

"Sir, I think it's just ten photos. I'm afraid it doesn't deserve that price. You know, photos are one-time traffic. Once this time passes, they are just waste paper."

After hearing Lin Yang's offer, Linai tried to negotiate with Lin Yang. It was obvious that she was even more dissatisfied with Lin Yang's offer.

The price of five hundred thousand is certainly not unaffordable for their TV station, but there is no need to spend so much money.

When doing business, the most important thing is to weigh the pros and cons.

Just as she said, whether it is the appearance of a monster or some big news, they are all one-time traffic products, and the most important thing is first-hand information.

Once this time has passed, maybe a minute or a day, once the heat has passed, people will no longer be interested in these things, and these photos will become waste paper.

Lin Yang was well aware of this, so he wanted to get rid of the photos as soon as possible. Lina also used this as capital to negotiate with Lin Yang.

"Ms. Lina, you know that for this photo, there will always be other places that offer a price that satisfies me. I compromised this time. Do you think I will choose your company next time?"

"Oh, you mean, you have other photos of monsters?" After catching the key words, Lina had to re-examine them again.

If this person really has a way to get first-hand monster photos, this price is not unacceptable.

"Of course, I also need to eat. If I don't have a stable way, how can I directly do this business?" With a slight smile, Lin Yang said as a matter of course.

"Okay, the deal is done, but we have one condition, which is that we want to be the first to see future photos." After learning about this, Lina also relented.

"No problem, please trust my professional ability."

"Then, happy cooperation."

"Pleasant to work with."

The business deal ended peacefully. Lin Yang sold the photos, and Lina transferred 500,000 yuan from the finance department on the spot and handed it to Lin Yang.

Lina also left Lin Yang her phone number and some work contact information.

The embarrassing thing was that Lin Yang didn’t have a cell phone yet, so he could only make vague excuses and escaped from the office.

"That's great, 500,000 yen, my first pot of gold!"

Outside the TV station, Lin Yang was delighted as he looked at the brand new banknotes in his hand.

At the same time, he couldn't wait to see when his photos would appear on TV and in newspapers.

However, it probably won't be seen in the newspapers, and he hasn't heard that KCB has a newspaper business. The related business should be outsourced.

Lin Yang didn't care what happened to those photos. Anyway, he had found a long-term, effective and stable way to earn money.

After earning his first pot of gold, Lin Yang naturally bought a mobile phone as soon as possible. After all, he would still need to keep in touch with his old customers in the future.

After some selection, Lin Yang finally bought a smart phone. This was because he hadn't used a flip phone for a long time before he traveled through time and he was not used to it.

As soon as he walked out of the mobile phone store, Lin Yang saw a distraught young man in a gray coat sitting by the fountain in the opposite square.

Toma Kaito.

At the same time, he is also the human form of Ultraman Max on this planet, and he was the one who almost knocked Lin Yang into the sea due to the plane crash.

If I remember correctly, Kaito has been temporarily suspended by Captain Hijikata because he acted impulsively and let the monster escape.

"It turns out that there is no need for emergency dispatch during the DASH holiday." Putting away his phone, Lin Yang walked over to Kaito and took the initiative to talk to him.

"You are..." Kaito raised his head, thought carefully, and found that he had never seen the person opposite him.

"My name is Lin Yang, and I'm also working in the Volunteer Alliance. I heard about you from President Noyama." Sitting next to Kaito, Lin Yang naturally started the conversation.

"Is that so? President Noyama is doing okay." Although Kaito was a little absent-minded, he still asked about his old friend's recent situation.

"I'm in good spirits. But what's wrong with you? You don't seem to be in a good mood today."

"Because I want to prove that Max is a friend of mankind. So, what does Yang-kun think of Max?" Kaito asked.

"Max... Even though he's an alien, he's also working hard to protect humans. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that. But it's not good to rely too much on Max."

Looking at the blue sky, Lin Yang expressed his thoughts, which were also his true thoughts.

Dependence on Ultraman is an unavoidable problem no matter which generation of works, once there is protection from powerful external aid like Ultraman.

Human beings will become lazy and want to rely on Ultraman, which is very easy to happen.

But no matter what, we must never forget that Ultraman has never been protecting humans, but fighting alongside humans, so he is definitely not an object to be relied on.

Human beings may be weak, but they can fight alongside Ultraman. It is because of this that Ultraman chooses to save humanity time and time again.

If even humans themselves have given up on themselves, there is nothing Ultraman can do no matter how much he wants to refuse to give up on humans.

"Dependence... But..."

"Ultraman has never been protecting humans, but fighting alongside them. As a member of DASH, haven't you noticed this?"

The sudden question stumped Kaito, and he had to think about it carefully.

Yes, Ultraman never said that humans are a weak race that needs his protection. Could it be that I care too much about something...
