Back to 1997, I became the originator of online literature

Chapter 147 The director was dumbfounded and wanted to come in person
The next morning.

Magic City.

Lin Baohui, who had just arrived at work, started her computer with a smile on her face, muttering to herself, "He should have replied to me, right? He must be very happy. If I were in front of him, he would probably be so excited that he would want to hug me and kiss me, hehe."

After the computer started up successfully, she logged into her email skillfully.

Sure enough, I saw that Cao Sheng had already replied to the email.

She opened the email with a smile and read his reply with shining eyes.

But the more she looked at him, the smile on her face became less and less. After reading his brief reply, the smile on her face disappeared completely. She looked stunned and a little dazed. She couldn't believe that he actually replied like that.

Although he didn't curse anyone in the email, the dissatisfaction revealed between the lines was almost overflowing from the computer screen.

He asked me to ask Mikasa Television Company if they knew the value of the sales of 150 million copies?
And he also said that if you can't show enough sincerity, don't bother him while he's preparing for the final exam?

It seems that he is very rich now!

Also!

We adventurers bought out the traditional Chinese publishing rights of his book and gave him two hundred thousand.

Xinchang has been working with him for more than a year, so he must have received more royalties.

As for the two mainland publishing houses that cooperated with him, I heard that they had already given him a share of the royalties. With such high sales, he should have become what mainlanders often call a millionaire, right?

He is indeed my idol.

Her expression was a little uncertain, and she herself couldn't tell whether she was depressed or happy for him.

She thought he would be very grateful to her for bringing him such good news.

I didn't expect this to be the result.

She frowned and thought for a while, then muttered, "It's all because Mikasa is too stingy! We adventurers are willing to give him 200,000, but you are a TV company with so much money, and you only give him 200,000?"

She forwarded Cao Sheng's reply to Zhao Guobin.

And shouted, "Boss Zhao! Cao Sheng has replied to us. The reply has been forwarded to you. Please reply to Mikasa!"

Zhao Guobin's response came from the office not far away.

……

About two hours later.

Taipei.

Mikasa Television Co., Ltd. Copyright Department.

The person in charge, Yu Meizhen, saw the email forwarded by Zhao Guobin.

After reading Zhongyuan Yidianhui’s reply.

The smile on her face froze.

The look in his eyes was very surprised.

He muttered to himself, "Two hundred thousand and you're still not satisfied? Your appetite is too big, isn't it?"

at this time.

There was a knock on her open office door and she looked up.

It turned out to be the initiator of this project - director Liu Junjie.

Liu Junjie smiled as he strode to her desk. He placed his hands on the table and asked politely, "Boss Yu! Have you contacted the author? Has he responded to us? Haha, now we just need him to sign the project. As long as he signs, the funds for the project will be in our account soon, and I can contact the leading actors and actresses."

Yu Meizhen: “…”

Looking at Liu Junjie's expectant face, she opened her mouth and forced a not-so-natural smile, "We have made contact, but this mainland author has a very big appetite. He seems very dissatisfied with the offer we gave him. So, if we want to get the film and television adaptation rights for this book, I'm afraid it will take some effort. Don't be too anxious!"

This time, it was Liu Junjie's turn to have the smile froze on his face.

"Didn't agree? He has a big appetite?"

Liu Junjie frowned.

Yu Meizhen nodded helplessly.

Liu Junjie frowned even more tightly.

I couldn't help but ask again: "How much did you offer him?"

Yu Meizhen hesitated for a moment, but still chose to tell the truth, because she couldn't hide the matter, and she felt that she was also thinking about the company and her original intention was good.

"20."

"20?" Liu Junjie's eyes widened and his voice became a little louder.

Yu Meizhen was a little surprised by his big reaction. She looked at him strangely and then nodded.

"RMB?"

Liu Junjie asked.

Yu Meizhen nodded again.

Liu Junjie: “???”

At this moment, he looked at her as if he was looking at an ancestor.

He opened his mouth and pointed at Yu Meizhen, as if he wanted to say something but couldn't. He gritted his teeth and walked back and forth in front of her desk with a frown. Then he stopped with a sullen face, stared at Yu Meizhen, and asked in a deep voice, "Boss Yu! Do you know that the traditional Chinese copyright of his book was sold for 200,000 RMB?"

Yu Meizhen nodded, "I know."

Liu Junjie was stunned for a moment, his eyes showing disbelief, "You knew? You knew and still offered him 20 RMB? What do you think?"

Yu Meizhen was not satisfied with his attitude, so she glanced at him and her tone hardened, "What do I think? Of course I am thinking about the company! You directors spend money lavishly, you don't know how expensive food and daily necessities are until you run a household! Should our copyright department also learn from you to spend money like water?
Besides, he is a mainland author, and he is just a student who has not even graduated from university! Is 200,000 RMB too little for him? Do you know that prices in the mainland are much lower than here? As far as I know, many well-known writers there can't even earn 200,000 RMB a year! 200,000 RMB is enough to buy two houses in the city where he studied! Is this too little?"

She spoke eloquently and her momentum was not weak at all.

The more Liu Junjie listened, the more surprised he became.

After she finished her question, he was silent for a few seconds, then emphasized, "He is a little bit of dust in the Central Plains!"

Yu Meizhen sneered, "So what?"

Liu Junjie emphasized again, "His last book topped the Taiwan book sales list for a long time!" Yu Meizhen: "So what?"

Liu Junjie: "He is also the most popular young writer in the Mainland, Taiwan and Hong Kong in recent years! The most popular!"

Yu Meizhen retorted, "So what? He has no works in the film and television industry! He is a newcomer in the film and television industry!"

Liu Junjie looked at her speechlessly, completely speechless.

He suddenly stood up and walked away.

Before leaving, he stopped, turned his back to her, and said, "Boss Yu! You are such a good talker! You can really save money for the company! Not buying the copyright of this book will save the most money. You are awesome! I admire you!"

After saying that, without waiting for her to respond, he strode away, slamming her office door heavily before leaving.

Yu Meizhen's face changed slightly.

……

A moment later, the general manager's secretary came to inform her to go to the conference room for a meeting.

When she arrived at the conference room, she found that it was almost full and everyone was looking at her strangely.

Only the general manager didn't look at her.

After she sat down, the general manager looked up and said expressionlessly, "Boss Yu! Could you please read the reply Zhongyuan Yidianhui gave us so that everyone can feel his attitude."

Yu Meizhen's heart sank, and she subconsciously looked at the expressions of the others around her.

I found that many people had smiles in their eyes and on their lips.

In fact, she had just calmed down and realized that what she said to Liu Junjie was inappropriate.

The main reason was that she couldn't stand Liu Junjie's criticisms of her work, and when she got angry, she subconsciously chose to fight back.

It feels so good to say it.

Liu Junjie was completely unable to gain the upper hand over her.

But now she is in trouble.

His face turned pale in an instant.

……

Cao Sheng had no idea that his email had caused a stir in Taiwan. He sat in the classroom, frowning as he flipped through his textbooks, reviewing hard, hoping that he would still pass the final exam.

However, if you don’t pay attention in class, it will be very difficult for you to review and prepare for the exam now.

There are too many knowledge points that need to be remembered and understood.

Most of the accounting knowledge he learned in his original time and space has been returned to his teacher.

You can only grit your teeth and bear it.

Two days later.

When he returned to his residence, he saw Huang Qingya again.

This time she didn't cook in the kitchen, but squatted in the corner of the yard, fiddling with several potted plants, including green ivy, gladiolus, asparagus fern, etc.

There were a few plastic bags nearby.

It looks like flower fertilizer and nutrient soil.

Hearing the sound of the courtyard door being pushed open, she turned around and smiled, "Are you back? I bought you a few pots of flowers and plants today. You said you've lived here for such a long time and you haven't planted anything. Such a big yard is a waste! How do you think? Take a look at these pots. Are they beautiful?"

Cao Sheng glanced at the pots of flowers and plants, then looked at her squatting there, looking back and smiling at him. Perhaps she didn't know how charming she was with her mature figure, squatting there in this posture, looking back and smiling.

He looked at the curves of her body in this pose and nodded in praise, "Yeah, very beautiful!"

Huang Qingya became even happier when she heard this.

She stood up and clapped her hands, then walked briskly to him, with her hands behind her waist, "Really? As long as you like it! By the way, after dinner, can you help me transplant these flowers and plants into bigger pots? And give them some fertilizer, okay?"

Cao Sheng parked his bike and nodded.

"it is good."

"I've prepared the food, go wash your hands and come eat!"

As she spoke, she took all the books and other things from his bicycle basket and trotted into the living room.

During dinner that day, Cao Sheng asked her if the problem she had encountered last time had been resolved.

She smiled and nodded.

Cao Sheng was curious and asked again: "Is it the method I told you that works, or is it the method you came up with that works?"

She bit her lip, and the look in her eyes when she looked at him suddenly changed.

……

That night, after Huang Qingya left.

Cao Sheng came to the study, turned on the computer, thought for a while, and started typing.

I didn't stop coding until midnight.

After saving all the manuscripts he had written tonight, he thought for a moment and logged into his email.

I wanted to see if the TV company asked her to email me again after I replied to Lin Baohui.
Although he didn't give face to the TV company last time.

But in his heart, he still wanted to sell the film and television adaptation rights of "Living with the Air Hostess".

As a novelist, who doesn't want his or her work to be adapted into a film or TV series?
It’s just that the price the other party offered last time was too low.

20?
He really despises it.

There was indeed a new email from Lin Baohui in the mailbox.

"Cao Sheng, Mikasa Television Company asked me to apologize to you. They said that the last offer was made by the head of their copyright department on his own initiative. The price they offered was indeed not sincere enough. They hope to talk to you directly. The current person in charge of this project, Director Liu Junjie, is going to bring people to talk to you in person. If you agree, I will notify them to come over. Do you agree for them to come over?
I think since they are willing to send the director over this time, they must be sincere.

Or, would you please reconsider it?
——Lin Baohui
