Chapter 55 Discovered
The leaders on both sides have determined the content of the cooperation, and the next step is simple.
Soon, Chen Yan and Sister Meili drafted a letter of intent.
Roughly in accordance with Chen Yan's request, Lu Man's salary is 800,000, to be paid in three installments.
The first installment is a prepayment of 100,000, the second installment is paid after filming, and the final 400,000 will be paid after the game is put on the shelves.
When drafting the agreement, Sister Meili had a gloomy face and exuded a cold and unfriendly aura.
However, Lu Man, after the final decision, regained his elegant demeanor, sat in the rest area, and continued to look through the plan, as if he was really interested in this game.
Soon, the letter of intent was reached.
Next, we will find a professional lawyer to draft the contract and both parties will sign it to formally sign the contract.
Sister Meili shook hands with Chen Yan, then came to Lu Man and whispered a few words to her.
Lu Man stood up, nodded to Chen Yan, put on sunglasses, a mask, a hat, etc., and then walked out surrounded by staff.
According to etiquette, Chen Yan and several game masters stood up and saw them off.
When they were about to send him to the door, Lu Man seemed to remember something, stopped, glanced at Chen Yan, and said, "By the way. Mr. Chen, I see that you have good looks. Do you plan to be an actor?"
Chen Yan was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Sorry, I'm not interested."
Lu Man said, "That's really disappointing. I originally wanted to play opposite you."
After saying that, Lu Man nodded to the few people again, walked with his long legs, and left Chenyu Company with a powerful aura.
Looking at Lu Man's elegant and cold temperament and appearance, if Chen Yan hadn't spent the entire night with Lu Man last night, he might really believe that she was such a person...
After watching Lu Man and his group disappear around the corner, Chen Yan and several other bigwigs returned to the company.
Back at their respective workstations, several experts chatted quietly.
"This Lu Man really changed my view of Xiaohua."
"Yeah. I feel like I'm becoming a fan."
Tank also said, "He is indeed an excellent person."
While they were chatting, Cheng Tianxiang seemed to remember something, touched his bald head, and asked, "By the way, Mr. Chen, you just said you wanted to explain to us what happened last night and this morning, but you haven't finished yet."
Chen Yan said "Oh".
He had just gathered a few people together and hadn't spoken yet when Lu Man came in, so he didn't explain.
At that moment, he was ready to tell about himself and Lu Man.
"Actually, there was a reason why I left early last night. I..."
When the words came to his lips, Chen Yan was stunned. He couldn't help but think of how Lu Man pretended not to know him today.
That female star saved me at least 400,000 yuan, and also settled the bill according to my own payment method, which eased my financial pressure. Now I am exposing her like this, isn't that a bad idea?
So, thinking of this, Chen Yan hesitated for a moment, and then blurred what happened last night, "I left work early last night and went to meet a key client of our company."
"After that, I socialized until four in the morning before going home."
"I fell asleep and died."
At this point, Chen Yan added, "Of course, it was my fault for being late and leaving early. I will never do that again in the future."
"Now that Lu Man has joined, we have also set up the framework for the game."
"Let's all work together! Let's try to make the first game quickly and well!"
After hearing what Chen Yan said, several bigwigs were a little skeptical.
But since the boss Chen Yan had already said so, no one could question it anymore, so they could only suppress their doubts in their hearts.
The company is just starting out and we are quite busy, so after chatting for a while, everyone gradually stopped chatting and went back to their own things.
The fat phoenix who was paying attention to Chen Yan the whole time was becoming more and more confused:
Met a key client last night?
With the support of the Zhao Group, my company should not be short of money.
We have our own group of people and no shortage of technology.
What kind of client would he be meeting?
Channel? Sales?
Isn't it a bit early now?
What would that be?
As he was thinking about it, Fat Phoenix couldn't help but think of Lu Man and Chen Yan's "weird" behavior today.
Could it be... that he met Lu Man?
Fat Phoenix was shocked.
She thought about it carefully and felt that perhaps this was the only way to explain why Chen Yan left early last night, was late today, and why Lu Manna reduced her own pay.
It seems that my boss used his connections to contact Lu Man last night.
Go and deal with this key person in advance.
This is why the negotiations went so smoothly today.
Thinking of this, Fat Phoenix began to search for news about Lu Man on the Internet.
Given Lu Man's popularity, if he really had a private meeting with his boss last night, there shouldn't be no news at all...
As he searched, several photos soon appeared in front of Fat Phoenix.
These photos were taken by a netizen, showing Lu Man running out of the hotel and getting into a rouge red Porsche.
Maybe because the netizen took the photo, the picture is a bit blurry. One can only vaguely make out two 8s in the license plate number.
If it were someone else, they probably wouldn't be able to find the car based on the license plate alone.
But Fat Phoenix recognized the car at a glance.
Because... Chen Yan’s license plate number is exactly E1881.
I went to meet an important client last night. The photos of Lu Man getting into the car taken by netizens, plus the abnormal behavior of Lu Man and Chen Yan today, the answer is already obvious...
Fat Phoenix sighed slightly.
Sure enough...behind every negotiation that goes abnormally smoothly, there is someone silently contributing.
Then I thought of the faint dark circles under Chen Yan's eyes today, and what he said about socializing until 4 o'clock.
It seems that Chen Yan really did a lot of work to ensure the smooth progress of this negotiation.
Thinking of this, she quietly gathered a few people except Chen Yan into a small group...
…
In the afternoon, Chen Yan yawned and reviewed the plan in his hand again.
I looked out the window and it was already dark.
Chen Yan stood up as usual, clapped his hands with a smile, and said, "Dear seniors, what takeout shall we have tonight?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Cheng Tianxiang said, "No more takeout."
Chen Yan was stunned for a moment and said, "Oh. Want to change your taste? Then let's go to a restaurant downstairs and eat, and then come back after eating."
Fat Phoenix said, "We won't go to the restaurant either."
Another cameraman who came from a real-life game, [Si Hai], said, "Mr. Chen, I'm a little tired today and want to get off work early."
Chen Yan was puzzled.
At this time, Tank also said expressionlessly, "Yes. I also want to go back early to rest today."
Chen Yan had even more questions.
Have these big guys changed their personalities?
Everyone wanted to work overtime before, but why do they all want to leave work early today?
At this moment, Yu Qiaoqiao also said pitifully, "Chen Yan, I have an evening study session tonight, can you take me back to school?"
