Chapter 590 Choosing a Site for the Studio
"I admire your courage, but Hollywood is really not easy to get along with." Li Hui ate the last piece of steak, wiped his mouth and said, "There are xenophobia everywhere in the world. Freedom, black people and women's suffrage are only bills that have been passed for nearly a hundred years. To put it bluntly, everything is appearance, and the most important thing is strength." He waved his fist.
"Don't say you are a citizen of the Republic. I am still an American citizen. Just because I have black hair and yellow skin, I was discriminated against when I was looking for a job. The West is dominated by white people, and black people and people of yellow race will be treated unfairly. .” Li Hui vomited bitterness to the two as if he had found someone to confide in.
"Sorry, it seems to be a bit off topic!" Li Hui smiled apologetically, "Of course, if you insist on opening a studio in Hollywood, I can act as a legal consultant. With the status of my law firm on the West Coast, except for a few Big companies, there shouldn’t be too many companies that will make things difficult for you.”
"Mike, thank you!" Sara nodded in agreement as if she didn't know how to write the word "polite" at all.
Seeing that Lin Tao seemed to have something to say, Li Hui chuckled and said, "Now that you are in the United States, you need to be more familiar with American communication methods. They don't like to beat around the bush, just be more straightforward."
Lin Tao nodded and asked, "How to calculate the cost?" This is the most practical question.
"I'm sorry, I can only give you some corresponding discounts. After all, there are still many people who need my support." Li Hui shrugged and said helplessly.
"I fully understand that as long as the studio can be opened smoothly, money is not a big problem." Lin Tao also knows that he can't be reluctant to part with money at this time, which is the same as being reluctant to part with children and not being able to trap wolves.
"Don't worry, as long as you don't go to court, the usual consulting fees are not too much. You can choose half-year settlement or annual settlement. Of course, if you can settle quarterly, I will be grateful." Li Hui also opened a small Little joke.
"Then the quarterly settlement will be settled, but you have to discuss these matters with Sara. This time she is the main force, and I am the assistant!" Lin Tao chuckled.
"Lin, it's really too much for you to fly over the entire Pacific Ocean with you. How dare you leave things to me so responsibly?" Sara raised her voice and protested dissatisfiedly waiting for her eyes.
"Okay, okay, don't do this, work is just work. In this way, when you finish your work and return to your country, I will give it to you if you fancy something, but the premise is that you can take it away, like Li Hui’s car, imported into the country, can almost buy another car.”
Only then did Sara smile with satisfaction. She didn't really care about material things, but mainly because of Lin Tao's attitude.
After the three of them had dinner, they changed to a coffee shop to discuss specific matters. Lin Tao spent most of the time listening in silence, and he didn't know much about many aspects.Sarah is different. She has working experience in a large company and has studied law, so she has no obstacles in communicating with Li Hui.
"Lin, do you think this is okay?"
Lin Tao was a little distracted just now, he said "ah", nodded and said, "You can figure it out!"?
Sarah glared at him angrily. He didn't hear what she said just now, and it's still up to him. What if he sold him?
Li Hui smoothed things over with a smile, and said, "Lin Tao really trusts you enough!"
Sara snorted, expressing her dissatisfaction, and then said sarcastically, "That's not trust, it's simply irresponsible!"
Lin Tao shook his head and smiled wryly. Whether it's trustworthy or irresponsible, it doesn't matter what she says, as long as the studio can be done well.
Li Hui is a professional lawyer, and Sarah is also half a lawyer. The two of them make do with each other and work efficiently.
It took only three days for the studio to be set up. The location is far away from Hollywood. There is no other way. The rent is too expensive in a central location, not to mention that it is only a small studio, so there is no need to make a fuss. When the studio grows bigger and becomes an entertainment company, then consider changing the office location again.
Li Hui took the two of them to look at the house. It was a small three-story building. It looked old on the outside, but it was not bad on the inside. It finally made up for the psychological gap.It is this kind of broken house, and the monthly rent is 3000 knives, which is 36000 knives a year, which is really not cheap.
The wooden floor "creaked" when stepped on, and it was so sour that it made one's teeth fall apart. The old furniture was covered with a layer of dust. I don't know how long this dilapidated house has been empty and no one has lived in it.
Li Hui asked his subordinates to do things, and he didn't expect such a situation. He said with apology on his face: "I'm really sorry, I didn't expect my subordinates to find such a house, otherwise we will retire. , I’ll pay for another one.”
"No, no, it's good. When the team is organized, it will give them the motivation to make progress. If the working environment is as good as Apple's at the beginning, it's actually not a good thing." Lin Tao said with a smile.
He went up and down in a circle, from dissatisfaction at the beginning to acceptance later, this psychological process changed extremely quickly, and the reason for this change was precisely because of the "third and a half floor", that is, the rooftop.
The roof is very spacious, and Lin Tao plans to renovate it to turn it into a leisure area, the second and third floors are used as work areas, and the first floor is used for reception.
After just turning around, Lin Tao already had a complete decoration plan in his mind. Taking advantage of the inspiration, he grabbed Li Hui and Sara to study together.
There was a thick layer of dust on the sofa, and the three of them didn't sit down, so they simply squatted on the ground, took out a pen and paper, and drew directly.
Lin Tao's favorite decoration style is simple and elegant, making reasonable use of various spaces and avoiding major renovations to the house as much as possible.
After hearing this, Sara frowned slightly and said, "Isn't it a bit too simple, but it's quite economical, but will it give people a feeling that they can't afford it?"
Li Hui said: "It's useless for us to guess here. Lin Tao's idea is good. I will find out after consulting with a decoration company later. The main thing is to communicate with the designer. Generally, the designer can understand the customer's idea. into reality."
Lin Tao said: "Then I will trouble you!"
"No trouble. Otherwise, I would also be looking at the case files at the firm. Now I don't need to go to court. I just serve as legal counsel for some big companies. I have plenty of time."
"Mike, you are still so bright!" Sara laughed softly.
"Bright..." There was a black line on Li Hui's forehead. If his parents were not originally from the Northeast, he probably wouldn't even understand the meaning of this word!
He thought silently, Sara really did not go to China for nothing, and now it seems that she is a China hand!
"Don't say you are a citizen of the Republic. I am still an American citizen. Just because I have black hair and yellow skin, I was discriminated against when I was looking for a job.
