Chapter 2407

"Suggestion, only when the person being advised feels good, that is a good suggestion, otherwise..."

Cloud painting put down the coffee cup and said lightly, "otherwise, it's rubbish."

Smith and Lawrence's faces changed.

That's very kind of you, Ms. Lyra.

She is just a florist. What capital can she be so proud of?

To be honest, Smith and Lawrence are used to the respectful and unusual courtesies given to them by the people of flower planting country. When they face cloud painting at the moment, such cold reception makes them very unbalanced.

Cloud painting is too lazy to take care of their imbalance, or in other words, this psychological imbalance is deliberately created by her.

They're unbalanced. What's the matter with her?

I can't stand it. Let's go.

Now, after all, she's not begging them.

Cloud painting looked at the two people who were constantly changing in front of her. She drank coffee quietly.

Smith and Lawrence got together and whispered something.

Soon, Smith said with a smile, "I'm very sorry, Miss Lyra. We're so smug. Now it seems that you have no intention to naturalize in M? "

Cloud painting doesn't answer.

She didn't bother to answer such questions, nor did she get used to them.

Smith was embarrassed, but his face didn't show it.

"We have great respect for Miss Lyra's choice," he said hastily. I think you love your country very much, too. We just feel that after joining the nationality of M, your life will become more smooth. Of course, if you love your country very much and still want to keep your nationality, you can. We will not interfere with any of your freedoms. "

Cloud painting face color is still light, or do not say what.

Smith said with a smile: "we just want to talk to you about the copyright of the next proof of crime. What you published in North American publishing company is only" evidence of crime 1 ". As far as we know, the conditions for the North American publishing company to issue your first book do not seem to be high."

Cloud painting did not say a word.

Smith motioned Lawrence to renew the coffee.

He went on to say, "do you know how much your book has made for the North American publishing company?"

Cloud painting interest, she looked at Smith: "I don't know."

"At least a million dollars," Smith said! This is only the money made by books, but the millions of dollars is nothing. The real wealth your book brings to North American publishing companies is fame! Your book has greatly increased the popularity of North American publishing companies. The most important thing is that the advertising companies in North America pay less attention to

Lawrence put a refill of coffee in front of the cloud painting.

Smith continued, "North American publishing companies are making a lot of money, but how much did they pay you? As far as I know, it's only tens of thousands of dollars, right? "

Yun Hua nods.

Smith said, "that's a great loss. Didn't you talk to them about royalty sharing in the first place? "

Yunhua chuckled and looked at Smith with a half smile.

Smith said quickly, "I'm sorry, Miss Lyra. I shouldn't have asked this question. At that time, your first book was still a newcomer. The North American publishing company certainly could not give you a royalty sharing contract. It must be a buyout, and the price will be pushed down as much as possible. In fact, any other publishing company will do the same. After all, it is reducing the risk. "

Cloud head painting.

"What about your second book?" Smith said. "The North American publishing company must have given you a better deal."

Yun Hua nods.

Smith said with a smile, "may I venture to ask you what kind of contract can North American publishing company offer you for the second book, the sequel?"

Yun Hua laughed: "Mr. Smith, you are also a publishing company. You are in the same trade with the North American publishing company. I think you know them very well. Guess what contract they will give me."

Smith began to think seriously.

After a moment, he looked at the cloud painting and said, "the North American publishing company is the largest publishing company in North America, and it has great influence in North America and Europe. Even if your first book sells well in North America and keeps on the sales list, the North American publishing company will not offer you too favorable conditions

"Is it? Why not Yunhua said, "you also said that the first book brought great benefits to the North American publishing company. Why didn't they offer me too generous conditions for the second book?"

Smith said with a smile, "it's very simple, because when North America signed the evidence of crime for the first time, it had underestimated your book. Even if the book sold well, the North American publishing company did not think that your book could be compared with other best sellers. Of course, the most important reason is your nationality."

Cloud painting nodded, "you go on."Smith continued: "it's really a matter of status. The status of you and the North American publishing company is not equal. In the eyes of the North American publishing company, you are just a little writer who accidentally wrote a popular book from a backward country in the East. This is not a writer that can be valued by North American publishing companies. "

"Although the North American publishing companies have tasted the money and benefits of your first book, they are not optimistic that you can continue to write better books."

"And there's also information inequality. The North American publishing company thinks that if you sell your first book at such a low price, it proves that you don't have a high estimation of yourself. In this way, the North American publishing company will think that you don't know the real value of your book, and they will keep pushing down the price I even think it's enough to give you a symbolic increase in the price of the second book. "

The cloud painting has a crooked lip.

In fact, that's about it.

Sure enough, it's still peers who know their peers better.

Cloud painting smile.

"I guess the North American publishing company should pay you 100000 for your second book," Smith said. Is that right? "

Yun Hua nods.

There is nothing to hide.

Smith said with a smile: "100000 US dollars, which is a very high figure for the mysterious backward Eastern countries. People in the North American publishing company must think that you are willing to sell the first book for 50000 dollars, and they will give you 100000 dollars for the second book. What else can you find fault with? They think you will be more than happy to accept the price. But in fact, they don't know you very well. "

Cloud painting looked at Smith and said, "well, you said that the North American publishing company didn't know me. Do you know me?"

Smith laughed: "I think I know something. As a matter of fact, I just wanted to know you about your nationality, but I didn't mean to persuade you to naturalize in M. Of course, if you are willing to naturalize in M, of course. I am proud to be a native of M. my country is the best. But... "

Smith's eyes focused on cloud painting: "you refuse me, which makes me think highly of you. You were born in such a country, you see the country is full of holes, but you are not willing to abandon this country, you are full of confidence in your motherland This shows me your heart. You will never betray yourself because of money, and your works will never simply yield to money. "

Yunhua laughed.

I have to say, this Smith is really a good negotiator. He is very talkative. At the beginning, he said something that made cloud painting unhappy or even contradictory. After that, he could quickly adjust his ideas, and then he ran to satisfy cloud painting.

Such a person, really, is very powerful. No wonder he was sent to negotiate with her.

Cloud painting looked at Smith blandly: "so if you think that I can't be moved by the people of North American publishing company, then why should I be moved by the conditions of your company?"

On hearing this, Smith began to smile bitterly: "I also think it is very difficult for us to impress you."

Cloud painting looked at the time: "then we seem to have nothing to talk about."

Smith immediately played negative: "of course not. We still have a lot to talk about. It's hard to impress you, but compared with the difficulty, we really want to impress you. We, very, very sincere. "

Cloud painting looked at Smith and laughed, "if your sincerity is to let me naturalize in M, and then help me operate the Nobel Prize, then forget it. This kind of sincerity is not necessary. I don't need it either. "

"Of course not." Smith said at once, "Miss Lyra, am I such a fool? After touching your prohibition, do you want to continue to bump into you? "

The cloud painting has a crooked lip. This Smith is really interesting.

"If you don't want to be naturalized, don't naturalize," Smith said. If the Nobel Prize in literature can't move you, think of something else that can move you more. Miss Lyra, all the conditions are negotiable. "

Cloud painting nodded, "all conditions can be discussed, but in fact My terms are very simple. "

"Please say so." Smith said, "no matter what conditions you have, we will take it very seriously and carefully. If I don't have the authority to approve, we will report it to the company."

Cloud head painting.

She was too lazy to talk so much. She said frankly, "my condition is money. You said that I will not be moved by money, then you are wrong, I will be moved by money. I want money. "

Smith was stunned for a moment. He frowned slightly. It seemed that cloud painting would say so. She was too direct.

"What is your psychological price Smith said.

Cloud painting's eyes were light, "why don't you tell me first, how much your psychological price is and how much you can give me? If I think it's appropriate, then it's settled. If I don't think it's enough..."

Smith is in a bit of a quandary.Instead of asking them to bid, he would rather let Leila make his own bid, so that he could bargain down.

But if they are allowed to bid, they will have to raise the price continuously, and at the same time, they will have to figure out Lyra's psychological expectation

"I'm sorry, Miss Lyra. I need to talk about it." Smith said.

Yunhua nodded. "I'll have some coffee. You're welcome."

Smith got up in a hurry and went to the side with Lawrence, whispering and not knowing what they were talking about. Their argument seemed to be quite fierce.

Yunhua drinks coffee leisurely.

Just then someone came up and stood beside her.

"Is coffee good?" Zhou Sheng's voice came from Beiqian.

Yun Hua turned to look at it and almost immediately frowned: "what are you doing here?"

"You, of course." Zhou Shengbei Qian sat down opposite her. He sat in Smith's position.

Cloud painting eyes light: "you don't feel like this now, very Is it boring? "

Beiqian was not angry, and looked at her with burning eyes. "If you give me a chance to pursue you, whatever I do, I will find it interesting."

Yun Hua's eyes were very cold: "Zhou Sheng, vice president, do you know that flies can be very boring."

Zhou Shengbei Qian nodded, "yes, I'm also very tired of flies."

Cloud painting is silent to this man.

Zhou Shengbei Qian also said, "is Bo Si Qing good for you? Not necessarily. If you accept my pursuit, I will treat you better than he

Yun Hua put down his coffee cup and looked at Zhou Shengbei Qian. His eyes were very cold: "Vice President Zhou Sheng, I just want you to know that only the good of the right person is what I want. No matter how good people are, they can be compared to poison. "

Zhou Shengbei Qian narrowed his eyes.

His expression suddenly became cold: "Lin Yun painting, can I ask you a question?"

"If I say no, don't you ask?" Look at him.

Zhou Shengbei Qian was also looking at her. Suddenly, he chuckled, "you are right. Even if you say you can't, I still want to ask. Now, when did you know me

Yun Hua frowned: "how can I start with this problem?"

Zhou Shengbei Qian was lying on the table, holding his cheek in his hands and looking at her: "when you first saw me, I still remember the eyes clearly. You remember me. You know me. So, when did you meet me? Why don't I know? I should not. As long as I have seen someone like you once, I will never forget it. But no matter what I think I can't remember when you met me

My heart beat.

She looked at Zhou Shengbei Qian faintly: "are you wrong. Maybe I was distracted, maybe I was thinking about other things, or I was looking at other people I'm sorry if my eyes have caused any misunderstanding to you

The expression on Zhou Sheng Bei Qian's face almost immediately closed up, and his eyes were staring at her: "sorry? I don't need your apology. Don't try to fool me. I am very clear, you see my eyes, is surprised, surprised with vigilance, there is rejection Right now, it's the way you look at me

Zhou shengbeiqian narrowed his eyes and said slowly, "look at me, like you are looking at a Abnormal. "
