1258 Are They In Conflict?

Director Li was a little stunned. He looked at Han Cihui. “One million... That’s the market price. Director Han, you should understand this better. I’m not giving Jia Qiulian any less.”

Han Cihui looked at him coldly. “That’s the market price, but you yourself also said that Jia Qiulian is the author of this book. She has a large readership. Even President Liang and Qin Yu are her loyal fans. Do you think she’s worth only one million yuan to be the screenwriter of her own book? ”

“This...” Director Li didn’t know that Liang Zixuan and Qin Yu were fans of Jia Qiulian. If that was the case, one million clearly seemed too little.

He thought about it for a moment and then timidly asked, “Then...How about one million and five hundred thousand?”

“Three million!” Han Cihui continued to say, “Three million is exactly what Jia Qiulian is worth now. Even President Liang can accept that. Otherwise, when she asks me about it later and I tell her that you gave Jia Qiulian one million and five hundred thousand yuan, she would scold me later!”

“Three... Three million!” Director Li was at a loss for words.

Three million was not a small amount.

To pay that much salary, he had to deduct it from the production funds.

For example, when choosing an actor, he first had to see the value of the actor and whether or not he could afford to pay for his production. It was not that he could hire anyone he wanted.

.....

It was the same as choosing a screenwriter.

“D-Director Han, this three million is really out of my budget!”

Director Li didn’t understand. They all belonged to the Han Group, and the company was the one that got most of the profit. Han Cihui and Jia Qiulian were considered shareholders of the Han Group. It was not that they didn’t get a share of the profits if this TV series was successful.

Asking for three million from him ...It was a bit too much!

Han Cihui seemed to guess what he was thinking and sneered. “The company’s earnings belong to the company. As a member of the Han Family, even though I own shares in this company, I cannot take a single cent less than what I have earned through sweat and blood! It is the same with Jia Qiulian. If you think my request is too much, you can find a cheap screenwriter.”

Director Li was really depressed. He also wanted to choose cheap things. Who didn’t want to choose cheap things? However, the script was the soul of a TV show. If the script was not well written or if the show did not have the essence of the original book, he, the director, would be scolded.

Nowadays, netizens didn’t care if you had money or not. As long as you didn’t create a series they wanted, they could literally berate you with anything.

So if a book with a large number of readers was adapted into a television series, to get a good reputation, it was too difficult!

As Director Li hesitated, Han Cihui chuckled and touched his wedding ring. “President Liang has always been looking forward to the adaptation of this book. A few days ago, she asked me if the movie version was ready. As for the TV series version... I think she will talk to you in a few days.”

Director Li silently gritted his teeth and said resolutely, “All right! Three million!”

Han Cihui had used Liang Zixuan to threaten him, so how could he say no?

He was also sad. Why was Liang Zixuan a fan of Jia Qiulian? This made everything very difficult for him!

After the discussion was over, Director Li reluctantly went to prepare the contract. _{Google search 𝙛𝒓𝙚e𝚠𝐞𝚋𝙣𝚘𝐯𝗲𝚕. c𝚘𝓶}

Jia Qiulian and Han Cihui did not leave the conference room because Director Li said that he would come back to have Jia Qiulian sign the contract once it was ready.

Since the negotiations began, Jia Qiulian had not spoken a single word. Only Han Cihui and Director Li were discussing, and now that Director Li had left, the conference room had become quiet.

Jia Qiulian glanced at Han Cihui, then took out her phone and played with it.

Han Cihui also took out his phone without saying anything.

They both sat there and didn’t interact at all. Everyone did their own thing.

The assistant came in and poured them coffee. When he saw how they were acting, he glared at Jia Qiulian and walked out angrily.

“Yao Au, what happened to you again?”

The colleagues couldn’t help but ask when they saw him come out with a dark face.

Even though Han Cihui had just taught them this morning, they still couldn’t suppress their gossiping hearts.

After all, Han Cihui was no ordinary director. He was the third young master of the Han Family!

His affairs were more worrisome than celebrity gossip.

The assistant looked at them coldly and then carried the coffee pot to the pantry.

Two brave people secretly followed him in.

“Yao Au, what did you see when you came in? Why are you so angry? Hurry up and tell us!”

The assistant put the coffee pot on the table. “Jia Qiulian and Director Han are sitting inside playing with their own phones. They’re also sitting far away.”

“Eh...” One of them asked excitedly, “Is there a conflict between them?”

The assistant was stunned for a moment. Then he thought of what had happened this morning and connected it to what happened after. His eyes flashed as he sneered, “If you hadn’t said it, I wouldn’t have thought of it at all. The two of them seemed to be at odds! Earlier in the morning, they were arguing in front of me. After that, the two of them did their own thing and didn’t say a word. If this is not a conflict, then what is it?”

“My God!” The man was so excited that his eyes lit up. It was as if he had heard something shocking. He was so excited that he was spitting.

“There is a conflict between Jia Qiulian and Director Han? Am I dreaming? These two have been married for more than a year and have always given me a toothache with their affection! Now they finally have a conflict, hahaha...”

“Keep your voice down!” Another colleague slapped him hard. “Don’t let the others hear!”

The man arrogantly raised his eyebrow. “Aren’t you excited?”

“Of course I am excited! When I think about how the two of them are not finally showing off their love in front of my eyes, I am so happy that I want to jump!”

The assistant looked at them singing the same song and became even angrier. “Are you two that happy?”

They both immediately calmed down. They looked at each other but did not dare to say anything.

The assistant sighed, picked up the coffee pot, and walked over to the sink to clean it.

The voices of the two people came from behind again. “I think they are really in conflict this time. Think about it, Jia Qiulian will help Director Li write the script. It will take another month or two to finish the script. She might have to work with the crew later on or change things at the last minute. So she might not be here for half a year.”
