Chapter 114 Great things are accomplished, and harm is eliminated for the people
"Mr. Zhou, I understand your feelings. We also feel guilty and sad that something like this happened to our company employees. If there is anything, we should sit down and have a good discussion before we can solve it. This is not the place to discuss things. Let's find a hotel nearby and have a good talk and try to solve this matter. Is that ok?"
Vice President Qian is good at both speaking and doing things.
Even though Zhou Can made a scene and cursed, he still spoke to him in a friendly manner.
"There's nothing to discuss! We only have one request, to terminate the contract."
Zhou Can's attitude was extremely tough.
"It's fine to terminate the contract, but you have to follow the contract! The company has invested an astronomical amount of money in training, packaging, and promotion for Qianqian over the past few years. If you want to terminate the contract, the artist should have paid part of the money. In view of her special situation, I consulted with my superiors and said a lot of good things for Qianqian, and the company agreed not to pursue that part of the liquidated damages."
Vice President Qian is really good at speaking.
The dead can be said to be alive.
Zhou Can didn't point it out, but just sneered in his heart.
"Mr. Zhou, I believe you are a reasonable person. Our company recently spent a huge amount of money and mobilized a large number of people to produce a song album for Qianqian, but we didn't make a single cent back! If you hadn't offended Mr. Zhao that night, the album might have been sold... Oh! Forget it, let's not talk about the past anymore."
Vice President Qian sighed and shook his head repeatedly.
He played the trick of self-torture in front of Zhou Can.
Unfortunately, Zhou Can didn't buy it at all.
"The company's request is not high. They just want Qianqian to buy the album. Then we can part ways amicably."
No matter how much they go around in circles, the North Sea Wolf Star Company is still holding on to this matter and will not let go.
"Five million is too expensive. We can't afford it."
Zhou Can asked Su Qianqian to cooperate in acting for several days, waiting for this negotiation.
He is not in a hurry.
Now Su Qianqian is threatening to commit suicide every day, I believe the North Sea Wolf Star Company must be worried.
Just look at Vice President Qian's earnest look and you'll understand.
"From the tone of your voice, it means you still agree to buy the album! It means you are a reasonable person. Let's find a place to talk about this properly, okay?"
Vice President Qian looked around and saw that there were so many people talking and he didn't want to discuss things here.
Zhou Can was half-heartedly dragged by Vice President Qian and the woman named Wu Jiali to a nearby hotel and booked a room.
Both parties sat down and discussed the matter carefully.
"Mr. Zhou, please drink some water!"
Wu Jiali bought some water and handed a bottle to Zhou Can.
The woman was wearing a low-cut dress and a miniskirt, and Zhou Can didn't dare to look up at her.
It's too eye-catching.
"Mr. Qian, let me be frank. Can you make the decision on this matter?"
Zhou Can looked at Vice President Qian.
"Tell me your price first."
Vice President Qian narrowed his eyes slightly.
"One hundred thousand!"
Zhou Can quoted a price without blinking.
"You must be kidding me! Which company doesn't spend tens of millions to record a music album these days? If Mr. Zhou really wants to resolve this matter, he has to show his sincerity."
After hearing this offer, Vice President Qian was so angry that he almost had stomach bleeding.
But they still didn't fall out.
This person is extremely cunning.
Gentle, smiling, polite, and willing to do anything for the sake of profit.
Just like that night, he got Su Qianqian drunk and sent her to Mr. Zhao, just to reach a cooperation with him.
"Let alone 10 million, even if you kill me, I can't come up with the 5 million you asked for. Not only do I have to show sincerity in this matter, but you also have to make concessions. You have seen the situation of my girlfriend, and she may die at any time. By then, you won't be able to sell that album for a penny."
Zhou Can's meaning was very clear.
He was willing to spend money to buy an album for Su Qianqian just because of her.
If everyone is dead, he won't be the scapegoat.
This matter is indeed a weak point of the North Sea Wolf Star Company.
The arrogant ones are afraid of those who don't care about their lives.
Su Qianqian doesn't even want to live anymore, so no matter how powerful this company is, they can't do anything to her.
"Mr. Zhou has a point. How about this? Our company will make some concessions and buy it for 4.5 million, all in one lump sum. This is the maximum price we can accept."
Vice President Qian gritted his teeth, with a look of determination to sacrifice his life.
Zhou Can had already learned about the cost of this album from Li Lao, so how could he listen to Vice President Qian's lies?
The two sides fought and tugged at each other.
The price was finally negotiated down to 1.6 million.
We really can't come to an agreement.
This price was the maximum price given by Vice President Qian after he had a phone call with Mr. Gui, who had never shown up.
Finally, Zhou Can said that he would sell his house to raise money to buy the album.
Vice President Qian agreed.
The matter is basically over here.
Both parties should be satisfied with this result.
Beihai Langxing would lose 200,000 or 300,000 yuan, but there was nothing they could do about it. On the one hand, Su Qianqian's determination to commit suicide frightened the top management of Beihai Langxing . If someone died, the consequences would be serious. On the other hand, they were more afraid that their efforts would be in vain. If Su Qianqian really committed suicide, it would be difficult to sell this album even for 100,000 yuan.
Might as well take advantage of this 'infatuated' fool who is willing to pay the money now.
Cash in on that album.
…
The next day, North Sea Wolf Star took the initiative to call Zhou Can and ask him about raising money.
It seems they are very anxious.
Zhou Can ran to the bank to go through the mortgage procedures.
Then after numerous reviews, the album was finally bought when the North Sea Wolf Star Company was extremely anxious.
When signing the contract, Zhou Can said he would ask a lawyer friend to take a look at it.
The other party naturally had no objection.
In fact, I just wanted to ask Li Lao to help me see if there was any trick in the contract.
Sure enough, he found that there were some tricks in the contract. After some modifications, there were no problems. Zhou Can then signed the contract with the other party and paid the money .
Get the master tape of that album, and all the copyrights.
At this point, the purchase of this music album has been completed.
The North Sea Wolf Star Company cut a small piece of meat.
Zhou Can finally gave Su Qianqian a sigh of relief.
I guess when this album becomes popular in the future, North Sea Wolf Star Company will stomp their feet and curse, regretting their actions.
After Zhou Can successfully bought it, the rest was directly handed over to Li Lao to deal with.
"Brother, ask for leave from the hospital tomorrow, or switch to the night shift. In the morning, we'll go register the company together!"
Li Lao said to him happily.
Li Lao has been directing this matter behind the scenes.
After successfully buying the album, he no longer had any concerns.
He will be in charge of all the affairs of the company from now on. Zhou Can will continue to be a doctor. If the company makes money, they will split it in half.
"Okay! I'm leaving first!"
Zhou Can waved goodbye to the Li Lao couple.
It can be seen that Qiu Jie supports her husband in starting a company. As a wife, she lives with her husband day and night, so how can she not understand her husband's thoughts?
They may have already achieved financial freedom.
But at their level, they will definitely have higher aspirations, not just simply having enough food and drink.
"Zhou Can, drive slowly! You are really a blessing to our family. My illness has improved a lot now, and I have regained the courage to live. Li Lao has also taken this rare opportunity to finally pursue his beloved career. Thank you!"
Qiu Jie was full of gratitude to Zhou Can.
Li Lao also showed a long-lost smile.
"Sister-in-law, please don't say that. It's fate that we can become close friends. If I have to thank you, I should thank Brother Lao for giving me 50% of the shares directly. This is a great favor."
Zhou Can said this directly to tell the Li Lao couple that he was very grateful.
Otherwise, if someone gives you a huge benefit, you will take it without saying a word.
Not even a thank you.
Isn't that treating people as fools?
With Li Lao's abilities, he has no shortage of connections, skills, or funds.
If you want to set up a company, you can do it alone.
There is absolutely no need to give half of the shares to an idle person like Zhou Can.
"Haha, that's because you don't understand Li Lao. In his heart, friendship is much more important than money." Qiu Jie said with a smile.
"Do you think you're the only one who doesn't think highly of money?"
Li Lao gave Zhou Can a dissatisfied look.
"Besides, you've made a great contribution! You and your girlfriend were the ones who provided all the information and acquired this album. You each contributed half of the capital. I don't think it's a big deal to give you 50% of the shares."
"Okay, okay, I can't argue with you. See you tomorrow."
Zhou Can waved his hand, turned around and strode away.
Now that he is in a relationship and is in the passionate stage, he naturally will not return to live in the company dormitory.
Instead, he planned to go back to Bajinghu Xiangshan Villa Community to celebrate with Su Qianqian, and then tell her the good news that the new company was going to sign her and praise her.
Sitting in the taxi, he still couldn't hide his excitement.
This was the first company he started in partnership .
Hope there will be a good result.
When the company makes money, he will proudly tell his parents that his son has finally grown up and no longer needs to rely on his parents, but can make money on his own.
"Can, can you come to the North Sea Wolf Star Company?"
"I'll be right there! What's wrong?"
Zhou Can and Su Qianqian went to the North Sea Wolf Star Company together.
Originally, Zhou Can was planning to accompany Su Qianqian to complete the resignation procedures and leave together.
Later, Su Qianqian told him that the financial settlement and personnel transfer procedures were complicated and she didn't know when they would be completed. She asked Zhou Can to go first and she would go back after she had completed the resignation procedures.
Could it be that this rogue company is planning to cause more trouble?
Her album was also bought. From a legal perspective, the company could no longer use the contract to trap Su Qianqian.
"When the HR office was transferring my file, they asked me to go to the general manager's office to get Mr. Gui's signature. A young lady who had resigned was also called to the general manager's office and it took a long time for her to come out. Later, she told me not to go to the general manager's office alone."
The reason why Su Qianqian has been in the entertainment industry for so many years without getting into any trouble is that she has always been vigilant.
That turtle boss is actually a wolf.
How can you not eat the meat right in front of you?
In the past, Su Qianqian was valuable and had been working in his company. Naturally, he was not in a hurry to take action.
Now Su Qianqian is about to leave, and this is Mr. Gui’s last chance to make a move.
"wait for me!"
Zhou Can only replied with two words.
Then he immediately asked the taxi driver to turn around and head to Beihai Wolf Star Media Company.
More than twenty minutes later, the taxi finally arrived at the building of North Sea Wolf Star Company.
"Keep the change, please!"
Zhou Can threw down a hundred-dollar bill and rushed directly into the North Sea Wolf Star Company.
The security guard stopped him.
"What's that look? I just came to your company to discuss a big contract not long ago! You're blocking me from coming in?"
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!"
Security guards bully the weak and fear the strong.
Apologize to him repeatedly.
Zhou Can rushed directly into the company building because the elevator was too slow.
He took the stairs and quickly climbed to the third floor.
"Who are you looking for?"
a female staff member asked him.
"Su Qianqian!"
"She's in the general manager's office!"
Zhou Can rushed to the general manager's office. "Hey, you can't go in!" Zhou Can ignored the woman and kicked the door open.
There are three people inside, including a beautiful woman wearing a professional suit and black stockings, who should be a secretary or something like that.
She was standing.
The man sitting on the general manager's throne was a fat man with a wretched appearance, at least fifty years old, with heavy bags under his eyes. He exuded a faint sense of majesty, and a hint of ruffian spirit.
His eyes were much more terrifying than that of the gentle Vice President Qian.
Like a tiger lurking in the mountains, gentle and meticulous.
He is comparable to the historical Sima Yi.
It is said that Sima Yi during the Three Kingdoms period was extremely feminine. He was both a tiger and a wolf. He was a tiger and a wolf who knew how to lurk and plan. He had the gloomy, gentleness and meticulousness that ordinary men did not have.
"Who are you?"
The female secretary yelled.
The moment Su Qianqian turned around and saw Zhou Can rush into the general manager's office regardless of everything, her eyes instantly turned red.
This man really dares to risk his life for her.
Really dare to do anything.
"He is Qianqian's boyfriend!"
Faced with this sudden situation, the man was stunned for a moment at first, but he quickly regained his composure.
He looked at Zhou Can indifferently, and even showed a friendly smile on his face.
"Qianqian must be very happy to have a boyfriend like you who protects her."
Zhou Can didn't expect the situation in the office to be like this.
It was completely different from what he thought.
When he rushed in recklessly just now, he thought that Mr. Turtle was doing something wrong to Su Qianqian.
Who knew that when I broke into the office, I found that in addition to Su Qianqian, there was also a female secretary.
"I'm sorry . I was reckless just now. I will compensate you for the door lock."
Even when Zhou Can came to this company to sign a contract, this turtle boss never showed up.
This was the first time the two had dealt with each other.
Since the other person was so polite, he felt embarrassed to act rudely.
“I understand.”
Mr. Gui picked up a pen and began to quickly sign and seal Su Qianqian's file.
High-end talents want to leave a good reputation on their resume when they resign, which is related to finding the next job.
But isn’t this a matter that falls under the jurisdiction of the Human Resources Department?
It is rare for the general manager to handle it personally.
"Well, I wish you a bright future and hope you can find a better employer. If you don't do well, the door of our North Sea Wolf Star is always open to you." Mr. Turtle said to Su Qianqian.
After taking the personal file, Su Qianqian stood up.
"Thank you Mr. Turtle for taking care of me and training me. Goodbye!"
She turned and looked at Zhou Can.
At this time, Zhou Can accidentally discovered a small detail.
Why does that female secretary always look at the glass of water in front of Su Qianqian?
People wearing clothes are not necessarily humans, and people with wings are not necessarily angels, but may be birdmen.
This woman looks very beautiful and has an outstanding temperament.
But his eyes were uncertain and moved faster than a mouse's.
At first glance, you can tell that he is a very versatile person who knows how to adapt to changing circumstances.
Is there something wrong with this glass of water?
Zhou Can was worried that Su Qianqian might have an accident, so he came a little too hastily.
The water is still full.
She probably hasn't drunk it yet. Maybe she's just a little more cautious.
"Qianqian, please sit down for a while. I still have something to talk to Mr. Gui about!"
Zhou Can was thinking in his heart, should he call the police?
What if the glass of water is fine?
The more rational thing to do is to take Su Qianqian away. She wasn't hurt anyway.
But Zhou Can's conscience and justice told him that if there was really something wrong with this glass of water.
If Mr. Gui is not sent to prison this time, more girls will be victimized in the future.
The little sister mentioned by Su Qianqian is most likely a victim.
"Mr. Zhou, do you want to talk about compensation for the door lock? It won't cost much. I understand that you are eager to protect your girlfriend. You don't have to pay, you can go now!"
Mr. Turtle said generously.
This hasty move to send Zhou Can away only made Zhou Can even more suspicious.
"Thank you, Mr. Turtle. But I want to talk about something else."
As he spoke, Zhou Can took out his cell phone and quickly sent a message to Li Lao.
"Please call the police for me. The address is the general manager's office on the third floor of Beihai Wolf Star Company. It must be quick."
"receive."
Li Lao replied to the message within seconds.
Zhou Can made all the arrangements and deliberately played nonsense with this turtle boss.
In order not to arouse the other party's suspicion, he deliberately humbly asked the other party what ways he could cash in the album he bought.
Mr. Turtle seemed to know something about his situation.
It is understandable that an outsider would buy an album but not know how to operate and monetize it.
He patiently taught Zhou Can some ways to monetize.
Just as the two were chatting, the office door was pushed open.
"Who called the police?"
Two policemen walked into the office.
"I called the police!"
Zhou Can breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the police arrive.
Mr. Turtle's face changed drastically, but he still tried to remain calm.
The female secretary was pale with fear in her eyes.
"What is it?"
The police questioned Zhou Can.
The scene was harmonious and it didn't look like there was any dispute.
The only thing that caught the eye was the door lock that was obviously kicked in.
After receiving Mr. Gui's signal, the female secretary naturally reached out to take the glass of water in front of Zhou Can.
"Don't move!"
Zhou Can shouted loudly, which scared her.
The female secretary quickly explained, "This glass of water was poured for Su Qianqian before. I'm going to replace it with a new one for you."
