Running Man: The King Of Korean Entertainment

After lunch in a small restaurant next to Cui Shirley's hotel, Jiang Haobai rushed to editor Cao Qian. He regretted that he should have treated Shirley to lunch just now, and there was no one to take care of her in the hotel. But when he thought of this hotel It was a five-star hotel and the meals were delivered to his door, so he no longer worried.

"Hello, is this Mr. Jiang?" This time Cao Qian saved Jiang Haobai's name in advance, and Jiang Haobai greeted him warmly as soon as he called.

Jiang Haobai, who was sitting in the taxi, smiled and said, "Well, it's me. I'm taking a taxi to your Hallyu Times Publishing House. I'll be there soon."

After hearing this, Cao Qian replied: "Well, okay, our president and editor-in-chief happen to be here. You can talk to them in detail when you come. They have better discernment than me."

"Yeah, that's fine. I'll be there in a minute." Jiang Haobai nodded. It would be great if the president was there. If his sales volume really reaches hundreds of thousands in the future, don't deny it when the time comes.

"Call me when you arrive and I'll send someone to pick you up."

"Okay, I'll call you when I get there."

The two talked about meeting for a while. Jiang Haobai fiddled with his phone and found out the information that Weibo was developing a Hanguo mobile version. He was quite happy. He could finally use Weibo on his phone in the future.

Jiang Haobai came to the address of Hallyu Times Publishing House and found that they were such a big company that they actually worked in a building that could be seen from a distance.

Without an access card, he obediently called Cao Qian and waited for someone to take him up.

After a while, a man about thirty years old and wearing a suit walked out of the office building. When he saw Jiang Haobai, he walked towards him.

"Excuse me, are you Mr. Jiang Haobai?" The man extended his hand to Jiang Haobai in a friendly manner and asked.

Jiang Haobai also shook hands with the other party, nodded and said, "Well, I am Jiang Haobai."

The man in the suit made an invitation gesture and led Jiang Haobai to the twelfth floor. Now Jiang Haobai regretted that he should also buy a suit. He was wearing blue casual clothes in this building full of white-collar workers in suits. You walk very unsociably!

The first floor of the twelfth floor was full of staff from Hallyu Times Publishing House. A man in a suit took Jiang Haobai. outside an office and knocked on the door. A female voice came from inside: "Please come in!"

Some staff who were working raised their heads and secretly looked at Jiang Haobai, and some editor girls whispered: "So tall and handsome! As expected of a romance writer."

They all know that the copyright of "My Love from the Star" written by RM member Jiang Haobai has been given to their company, and they are waiting for Jiang Haobai to appear.

"Shh!" The man in a suit made a silencing gesture to prevent a girl holding a mobile phone and signature paper from approaching Jiang Haobai.

"I'll sign it for you when I come out." Jiang Haobai smiled and waved to her, opened the door and walked in.

"Wow!" The female editor was so moved by Jiang Haobai's smile that she almost fainted.

…

"Hello." Jiang Haobai saw Cao Qian sitting at a desk. She was about thirty years old. She was not very beautiful, but she had a bookish air.

When Cao Qian saw Jiang Haobai finally coming, she stood up with a smile, walked around her desk, walked to Jiang Haobai, and said with a smile: "Hello, Mr. Jiang Haobai, we finally meet, in person than in the trailer The one inside is handsome."

Cao Qian obviously watched the trailer of the latest issue of Running Man just for Jiang Haobai. Jiang Haobai is quite happy. It seems that the Korean wave era still cares about him as a new author.

Cao Qian moved to the sofa next to her and said with a smile: "Please sit down."

The man in a suit brought a cup of coffee, and Cao Qian handed it to Jiang Haobai.

"No, I don't drink coffee, so don't be too polite." Jiang Haobai said quickly. He only drinks green tea.

"Xiao Liu, you go out first." Cao Qian asked the man in a suit called Xiao Liu to go out first.

Xiao Liu nodded, knowing that Editor Cao was about to talk about business.

As expected, Cao Qian got right to the point: "Our president and editor-in-chief of Hallyu Times are already reading your book in the conference room next door and waiting for you. Why don't we go over now and talk in detail."

Jiang Haobai heard this, nodded with a smile and said, "Okay."

The two of them left the office and came to the door of the conference room next door. Cao Qian knocked on the door, and a man's voice came from inside: "Please come in!"

Jiang Haobai and Cao Qian opened the door and entered. This was a small conference room with a very good environment. They could see the Han River. Two middle-aged men were clicking on their tablet computers and turning pages.

One has a handsome mustache, while the other is somewhat bald.

When they saw Cao Qian leading Jiang Haobai in, they both stood up from their seats, looked at Jiang Haobai and said with a smile, "I guess this is Jiang Haobaixi, right?"

Jiang Haobai nodded: "Hello, I am Jiang Haobai."

Then Cao Qian introduced Jiang Haobai. It turned out that the bald man was Jin Taimin, the president of Hallyu Times Publishing House, and the other one with the mustache was the editor-in-chief Li Taixue, a Chinese with Han nationality.

The four of them sat down at the table. Jiang Haobai coughed dryly and stopped beating around the bush. He asked directly: "Compared with the president and editor-in-chief, you already know my requirements very clearly, right? I wonder what your publishing house thinks. Is it inappropriate or do you have any comments?”

Sitting opposite Jiang Haobai, editor-in-chief Li Taixue replied with a smile: "I just read your husband's "My Love from the Star". It can be regarded as a unique book in youth literature. I am so impressed by an artist who specializes in acting." I have deep respect for good works. Although I am a businessman, I am also a literary person. In my eyes, Brother Haobai is also a great writer with a very rich imagination, so we discussed it. In order to facilitate our long-term cooperation, I decided to slightly modify your request."

"Oh? I wonder what changes your publisher wants to make?"

At this time, President Jin Taimin spoke: "We feel that the conditions proposed by Mr. Jiang are a bit disadvantageous for you, and we are not willing to take advantage of you for long-term cooperation, so after discussion, we decided to pay 30 million won I bought the publishing rights of "My Love from the Star" for the price, paid in advance."

"Then there's no need for us to continue talking." The smile on Jiang Haobai's face disappeared. Do you want to buy it out directly? Then forget it.

Seeing that the president didn't explain clearly, Cao Qian quickly made up for it when she saw Jiang Haobai's expression: "You misunderstood. Our president means that the 30 million is the guaranteed royalties we pay to our husband, which means that no matter whether we lose or make profits in the future, , if you take 30 million first, you won’t lose everything. If it really exceeds 500,000, how about we share it according to the proportion you said?"

Jin Taimin nodded, indicating that this was what he meant.

A smile appeared on Jiang Haobai's face. These old foxes didn't want him to cooperate with the Hallyu era just once, because he will become more and more famous in the future, and it will not be so easy to cooperate again, so they want to bribe him in advance. his heart.

Since you want to give me more money, I will accept it. Jiang Haobai thought there was nothing wrong with spending more than 30 million yuan, but he just happened to be a little short of money now.

"Bring me the contract."
