Fist of Imagination

Chapter 513 Business Competition (Thank you, Mr. Xie Ke'er, for your support as leader~)

The tall and slender woman striding towards the bar was wearing a chrome suit. On the left side of her peaked lapel coat, a company emblem shaped like a honeycomb shone coldly.

The woman put her hands in the pockets on both sides of her nine-point tapered trousers, looked up, smiled handsomely at Fang Weiyu who turned around, and sat down to herself.

"Teacher Fang, this is the first time we meet. I am the deputy editor-in-chief of Suiyuan Publishing House under Compound Eye Media.

"My name is Ye Jia."

Ye Jia took out a business card and pushed it over the bar.

Fang Weiyu was about to pick it up when one hand came first and held the business card tightly, preventing it from moving forward.

"We are still in a meeting, isn't it a little too rude of you to do this?"

Liang De stood up, supported the bar with one hand, looked down at Ye Jia and said:

"The cooperation content we are going to talk about next involves commercial secrets. Please avoid it."

"Next?"

Ye Jia smiled silently, raised his face and said:

"I think Teacher Fang may not talk to you next."

Li Zhixian on the screen raised his eyebrows:

"If you don't want to talk to us, why don't you talk to you? Talk about cooperation with Compound Eyes? Haha.

"Woman, you succeeded in making me laugh. You are really funny now."

Ye Jia also seemed to find it a bit funny. She raised the corners of her lips slightly and said unhurriedly:

"When it comes to industry performance and social reputation, we are almost equally matched. Since we can talk to Qinggenfeng Cultural and Creative Industries, why can't we talk to Compound Eye Media?

"Editor-in-Chief Li must also be aware of the spirit of recent high-level meetings.

"Control friction and develop peacefully. What a good statement. I personally agree with the decision above.

“Today I come with 10% sincerity to compete with you for this cooperation opportunity openly.

"Don't you dare to engage in ordinary business competition, right? Qinggengfeng, right?

"Editor Liang, what do you think?"

Liang De let go of his left hand and asked Ye Jia to push the business card in front of Fang Weiyu.

"Since Bian Ye is willing to have an ordinary business competition, of course I am happy to accompany him."

He shook hands with Ye Jia and said:

"Speaking of which, I had some dealings with Mr. Mi from your company's Polu Division some time ago. Your styles are very different."

"The rice elephant cannot represent compound eyes, let alone me."

Ye Jia retracted his hand and said:

"We are just workers. There is really no need to shout and kill each other as soon as we meet. Are you right, Editor Liang?"

"Ye Bian is transparent."

Liang De made a gesture of invitation and sat down again.

He picked up the cup of Cinderella, looked at Li Zhixian on the screen, and continued talking to her in his head.

"Old Liang, you reached a consensus with the enemy so easily? Is this good!"

Wake up, you are a Shiba Inu, not a Husky!

"The end of this blue star is coming."

Liang De said: "It would be good for everyone if we have two less White Tribulation Walkers fighting here.

"Besides, Brother Xian, you are Utopia's Note and I am Utopia's Fist. We are both cultural people, and literary and artistic work is our old profession.

"Now fair play, is it possible for you and I to lose to a boogeyman with compound eyes?"

"Well, what you said makes sense."

"Just take a look!"

…

In front of the bar, Ye Jia nodded to Liang De, touched the fingertips of his hands, and clapped his hands gently after getting close to Fang Weiyu, making the latter come back to his senses.

Fang Weiyu held the phone, a little confused.

While Liang De was talking to Ye Jia, she had already searched several keywords on the business card.

Good guy, another multinational giant is rushing to find me for cooperation.

No, where on earth do you top 500 people know me? Could it be that it is the gear of my destiny... This is the ultra-fast centrifuge of my damn destiny that is powered on!

Ye Jia flexed his knuckles and tapped on the countertop, and the screen on the wall of the bar lit up with the title "Copyright Development Plan V5.4.7.1 of "Grey City Ghost Stories Series"".

"Teacher Fang, I happened to hear Editor Li's cooperation plan outside the bar just now.

“To be honest, it’s pretty average.

"Judging from her plan, Qinggenfeng Cultural and Creative is not only not the richest client in the world, but it is also by no means the best client in the world."

Fang Weiyu: "...Isn't her plan rich enough?"

"A beggar sells his wealth while showing off his poverty. These are all things that cannot be put on the table. Do it the way she did, and the same goes for selling salted duck eggs. What does it have to do with your work, Teacher Fang?"

Ye Jia clicks with her fingers, and the content on the screen switches accordingly.

"The "Grey Urban Ghost Story Series" is entirely composed of short stories, and the total text of all the texts is less than 300,000 words, which is slightly thinner than other phenomenal works.

“If we want more readers to experience the strange world you constructed, Mr. Fang, we must perfectly convert the narrative imagination in the work into a visual image. Therefore, a first-class concept designer is essential.

“So far, our agency has reached cooperation agreements with more than 30 top universities including the Lutetia National Higher School of Fine Arts, Ilia Academy of Fine Arts, and Takanodai University of Fine Arts. They will send a team of artists of no less than a thousand people. Participate in the project from start to finish.

"Considering that Mr. Fang is a loyal player of the "Belmondo" series, we specially invited Ms. Takemi Oshima to serve as the art director of this project. At the same time..."

Fang Wei suddenly stood up: "Isn't Teacher Oshima still working on "Night of Red Marks"? She..."

"We have coordinated the schedule."

"How is that possible! The production of Bloodstained has already entered..."

"Compound Eyes Media will purchase three million copies of the game for forwarding and lottery on the day of Bloodstained Night's release, and the advance payment has been paid.

"Great games are never afraid of delays, and the Bloodstained team is happy to lend us Teacher Oshima for a while."

Ye Jia took out a small note from his arms and handed it to Fang Weiyu:

"This is Teacher Oshima's personal contact information. She is very much looking forward to discussing the wonderful stories in the Gray City series with you."

Fang Weiyu took a deep breath, "I know I'm not dreaming, no, do I really know, this is really... Teacher Oshima and I... Editor-in-Chief Ye, can you pinch..."

Ye Jia smiled and put his hand on Fang Weiyu's shoulder:

"Teacher Fang, I don't have the habit of pinching people casually. If you like, we can fly to Edo now and have dinner with Teacher Oshima at the izakaya in Ueno. "

She glanced at Liang De and Li Zhixian on the screen, and said:

"There is one more thing to rest assured. We are different from Qinggengfeng Cultural and Creative, a company full of money and eager for quick success. Fuyan Media will never interfere with your free creation, Teacher Fang.

"You can start from the first article in the Gray City Ghost Stories series and slowly polish it until you are satisfied.

"No matter how the project progresses, we will give you an advance payment of no less than eight figures every year."

Fang Weiyu was a little overwhelmed: "Why are you willing to..."

"Because you are worth it, your work is worth it."

Ye Jia held Fang Weiyu's hands and used extraordinary power to increase the temperature of his palms a little:

"Teacher Weiyu, let us bring the gray city in your heart to this world together, so that everyone can see the city in your heart, what do you say? ”
