Chapter 160: Jiang Xu: She has given too much
There was no need for that.
He merely wanted to gather more information about Cheng Xing.
In the future, ideally, there would be no interaction between them.
But if they were to become enemies again like in his past life, he didn\'t want to be in the dark about his opponent.
The streets were crowded, so Cheng Xing wouldn\'t notice Jiang Xu tailing him.
After they\'d walked a distance, the two split up.
Jiang Xu continued following Cheng Xing.
Lastly, he saw him enter a high-end villa area.
Your family had to be extremely rich to own a villa in the city.
Here, every villa easily cost upwards of a hundred million.
And without a net worth of tens of billions, you had no right to live here.
Jiang Xu silently watched for a while, then turned and left.
He couldn\'t enter that area.
But that was okay, he\'d already memorized the design of Cheng Xing\'s school uniform.
He\'d find time to look up which school it belonged to; that would make things easier in the future.
He found a hotel nearby.
Across from the hotel was Heaven On Earth.
At its entrance stood two rows of young ladies in cheongsams, fair-skinned and beautiful with long legs.
Whenever a guest arrived, they\'d simultaneously bow and sweetly welcome them.
Listening to their greetings made one want to spend money on them...
Jiang Xu glanced over it once, twice, then silently looked away.
He booked a single room, sent An Nuonuo a text and attached a few photos of the view outside the hotel.
An Nuonuo replied instantly: "Hmm hmm, take care of yourself, tell me when you\'re back, I\'ll pick you up."
Reading this, Jiang Xu couldn\'t help but admire again how great a girl she was.
Whether now or ten years later, a girl like her would always be as rare as a phoenix feather or a unicorn horn.
After chatting for a while, Jiang Xu went to take a bath and rest.
The next day, after breakfast, he went to the meeting place he\'d arranged with Liu Yue.
It was a high-end tea restaurant, where the average cost per person was over five hundred yuan.
Inside the Four Seasons private room.
The moment Jiang Xu opened the door, a wave of fragrance wafted out.
This fragrance came from the three women inside.
Chen Xueyi, Liu Yue, and Zhou Qingyue.
All were extremely attractive, with Chen Xueyi being the strongest in all aspects, followed by Zhou Qingyue.
Liu Yue enthusiastically greeted, "Our great author is here, please sit."
Jiang Xu nodded, his face was full of smiles, and he exchanged greetings with everyone.
Liu Yue personally served Jiang Xu a drink, "The TV adaptation of \'Those Bygone Years\' has a viewership rating of 2% on two provincial TV stations.
Four local TV stations also have ratings breaking 1.
In addition, five other TV stations are in negotiation with me; the price hasn\'t been agreed upon yet.
If luck\'s on our side and it becomes a hit, you can just lie back and collect the money."
Jiang Xu laughed and said, "All credit goes to your hard work. I\'m just sharing in your success."
Liu Yue enjoyed talking to Jiang Xu.
Besides being good-looking, he was also great at conversation.
His every word made people feel comfortable.
Zhou Qingyue sat quietly to one side, drinking her red wine without making a sound.
She was heavily made-up today, but far from vulgar, giving off a unique vibe.
Chen Xueyi was also quite interested in Jiang Xu.
After conversing with him for a bit, she asked, "Could you take some time to write a novel specifically for me? Money is not an issue."
I guess every girl longs for a story of her own.
Jiang Xu measured Chen Xueyi with his eyes for a moment before shaking his head. "I\'m sorry, I\'m unable to do so."
"What?" Chen Xueyi was taken aback. "Why not?"
Jiang Xu said very seriously, "Sister Xueyi was too perfect, no words could describe one ten-thousandth of her beauty.
I\'m afraid that writing it down would taint Sister Xueyi."
"Hee hee hee..."
Chen Xueyi and Liu Yue both laughed, their smiles as bright as blooming flowers.
Zhou Qingyue frowned, and then, thinking of something, looked at Jiang Xu with some resentment.
After laughing for a while, Chen Xueyi finally stopped.
She said disgruntledly, "You definitely have the potential to be a scumbag. With that mouth of yours, I don\'t know how many girls will be deceived by your sweet words."
Jiang Xu shrugged, "You all have got it wrong. I meant it sincerely."
Only a few minutes after Jiang Xu arrived, the atmosphere had truly warmed up.
Except for Jiang Xu, who was drinking a soft drink, the three women were all drinking red wine.
After a few drinks, their faces turned slightly red.
Seeing that the timing was just about right, Jiang Xu spoke up about his purpose for being there.
All three pairs of eyes fell on Jiang Xu, filled with perplexity.
They didn\'t understand what Jiang Xu was going to do with this.
He definitely couldn\'t tell them his true thoughts.
Jiang Xu began, "Well, I want to keep them mainly as a collection.
After all, these few works are derived from my own creations.
The rest of the copyrights are too expensive, I can\'t afford them.
It\'s the online broadcasting rights I can afford, no one really cares about it, I see it as sort of a memento.
I hope that you two can sell it to me, looking at our previous pleasant cooperation."
"So that\'s it..." Liu Yue nodded subtly and then looked at Chen Xueyi.
After thinking for a while, Chen Xueyi also nodded.
Mainly because they had no idea of the drastic changes the internet would go through in the future years.
They couldn\'t foresee that in the future, online broadcasting rights would be even more expensive than TV broadcasting rights.
In the end, these two major shareholders agreed.
"Those Bygone Years", "Pure Lover" and the yet-to-be-aired "Overbearing CEO Falls in Love with Me" TV dramas or movies.
The total online broadcasting rights, all added up, were sold to Jiang Xu for two hundred thousand in a lump sum.
As for the contract, they could sign it at Liu Yue\'s company the next day.
Then, Chen Xueyi discussed in detail with Jiang Xu about commissioning him to write a customized novel for her.
Jiang Xu thought she was joking, he didn\'t expect her to be serious.
He was so busy, how could he have time to play this game with her?
He shook his head and said, "I\'m really sorry, I have a lot going on and I\'m about to take the college entrance exam..."
Chen Xueyi extended her slender finger, "Five hundred thousand for your work."
Jiang Xu, "Although I\'m about to take the college entrance exam, if Sister Xueyi has a need, I\'ll definitely try my best to satisfy it!"
Chen Xueyi\'s lips curled up slightly, "Little brother Jiang Xu, you\'re a bit shameless, but I like it."
Jiang Xu, "..."
Do you believe me if I say you\'re defaming me?
But for the sake of the money, never mind, let\'s just say you defame me.
Chen Xueyi mentioned a few requests.
The character she wanted in Jiang Xu\'s book should be ethereal and kind-hearted. Everyone around her should like her...
To put it simply, she wanted a perfect female character.
As for the plot, it wasn\'t very important.
There were also no strict requirements for the word count, around a hundred thousand would suffice.
This translates to an exorbitant price of five thousand per thousand words.
Indeed, the rich could afford to be capricious.
Jiang Xu noted down her requirements. They were not very challenging for him.
After discussing the serious matters, they began eating and drinking.
They all enjoyed the meal very much.
Both Chen Xueyi and Liu Yue got drunk.
Zhou Qingyue called the assistants waiting outside to come in and take the two of them to their cars.
Then she looked at Jiang Xu with a blank expression, "I have something to say to you."
