Rich boss

“Oh, right, Xiao Ge, General Manager Du also said that he and Chen Cong will come to the Film and Television City in a couple of days to take a look. If there’s a role that can show their face, without needing much screen time, they can try it out.”

“Of course, that’s on the condition that it doesn’t affect the quality of the movie.”

Wang Bin spoke again. He didn’t directly agree to General Manager Du’s request.

Although he was the company’s Vice President and had that authority.

But this was at the Film and Television City, and arranging roles would definitely require the director’s permission, especially since the director was also the General Manager.

“It won’t affect the plot?”

Luo Xiao fell into thought upon hearing this, then slowly spoke.

“There are indeed a few passerby roles in the script, with only two to three lines of dialogue, where they interact with the protagonist. However, even though there are only two to three lines, to ensure the movie is flawless, we will strive for perfection during filming, which might mean shooting the scenes many times.”

“If they don’t mind, then these two parts can be given to them.”

His previous plan was to find two extras at the Film and Television City to play those roles, but since General Manager Du and General Manager Chen of Tiange had such a request, he naturally had to fulfill it.

After all, these two had helped them a lot.

“I understand, Xiao Ge. I’ll tell them about this.”

Wang Bin nodded.

“Alright, that’s all for today. Get some rest early; we still have to shoot tomorrow morning.”

Luo Xiao spoke slowly.

Wang Bin also left the Room and returned to his own Room.

………………

Two days later,

Zhang Lan smiled slightly as she watched “later” successfully climb to the number one spot on the New Song Chart.

She had finally reached the top three on the New Song Chart. At this moment, all three top songs on the New Song Chart were sung by her.

Such a sight had never appeared before.

After all, only songs released within the first three months are considered new songs; once they exceed three months, even if you are number one on the New Song Chart, you will not remain there.

And for three songs to dominate the top three spots on the New Song Chart, it requires creating three very high-quality songs within a three-month period.

No one had ever achieved this before.

General Manager Chen was the first.

Of course, whether General Manager Chen created them within three months, she didn’t know, as General Manager Chen had given her 11 songs all at once. How long it took General Manager Chen to create these 11 songs, she didn’t know.

But even if General Manager Chen didn’t create them within three months, just creating so many songs and resisting the urge to release them showed General Manager Chen’s self-control.

If it were other creators, having created a very high-quality song, how could they resist not releasing it?

Buzz buzz buzz!

While she was thinking,

Her phone in her pocket suddenly vibrated. Zhang Lan took out her phone, glanced at the caller ID, and answered the call directly.

“General Manager Liu, is there something?”

Zhang Lan spoke calmly.

“Zhang Lan, what matter, would you not know?”

A middle-aged man’s voice came from the phone, seemingly with a hint of helplessness in his tone.

“I don’t understand?”

Zhang Lan continued, her tone filled with confusion.

The other end of the phone was silent for a moment before continuing to speak.

“Alright, then I’ll be direct. It’s still about the authorization.”

“General Manager Liu, you’re talking about this matter. Didn’t we discuss it before? The price you offered isn’t what I want. If it’s still that price, there’s no need for us to discuss further.”

Zhang Lan’s tone was indifferent.

“The reason I called is naturally because I have a different price. I’ve already arrived in Jiangcheng, and I hope we can meet to discuss in detail. If possible, we can sign the contract directly.”

Listening to the words on the phone, Zhang Lan also pondered for a moment before continuing to speak.

“Okay, but the meeting place must be chosen by me.”

“Okay!”

After discussing the matter,

Zhang Lan hung up her phone, thought for a moment, edited a text message, and sent it out.

Recipient: General Manager Chen

If we go to negotiate today, if the conditions are suitable, the contract will basically be signed today.

As the provider of the songs, General Manager Chen naturally had the right to know.

After doing everything, Zhang Lan went into the Room, changed her clothes, and then left her home directly.

………………

Tomorrow Group,

President’s Office,

Chen Mo stared intently at the computer screen. After a long while, he leaned back in the boss’s chair, feeling somewhat speechless.

But he still looked at the computer interface.

“Discrimination, this is outright discrimination. Believe it or not, I’ll just cancel the Tomorrow Cup.”

Chen Mo grumbled unhappily.

Just today, when he logged into Limit Survival out of boredom, intending to play a couple of rounds, he suddenly discovered a pop-up window on the game interface.

Tomorrow Cup!

After clicking to view it and calling Fang Chang to confirm, he understood everything. This Tomorrow Cup was a type of game competition event.

Casual players could choose teammates in the lobby or gather a few friends in real life to form a team.

In short,

to participate in the Tomorrow Cup, one needed to form a team.

And just now, when he entered the Tomorrow Cup interface, he was preparing to join a team to play and see if he had a chance to get a ranking reward.

If he got a reward, it would be an unexpected gain.

If he didn’t get a reward, there would be no loss.

However, what he didn’t expect was that every time he entered a team Room, he would be kicked out within a few seconds, stating that his win rate was too low.

He entered several Rooms like this, but in the end, he couldn’t escape being kicked out.

Chen Mo rubbed his brows unhappily and found his win rate.

Was a 28% win rate really that low?

He got up, picked up the water glass from the desk, and took a sip.

Buzz buzz!

The phone on the desk suddenly vibrated slightly.

Chen Mo picked up the phone casually and saw that it was from Zhang Lan.

He opened it and took a look.

“Going to discuss cooperation with the music platform today. If suitable, the contract might be signed today.”

Looking at the content of the text message, Chen Mo smiled slightly.

The slight frustration he felt earlier because of the game instantly vanished at this moment.

Ever since the third song was released,

he had been following the song’s progress. Just last night, the third song had already reached the top three on the New Song Chart.

According to Zhang Lan, as long as the third song entered the top three on the New Song Chart, she could negotiate better terms with the music platform.

Now that Zhang Lan was going to negotiate cooperation, she was definitely preparing to get a better price.

Although he didn’t know the final price they would agree upon, the only thing he could be sure of was that once the cooperation was finalized, he would receive 80% of the profits.

And this profit share would go into his personal assets.

Just thinking about his personal assets being on the verge of a qualitative leap made him a little excited.

He was finally going to become a rich boss!
