Chapter 104 Returning to China
"Part-time job? Me? What kind of part-time job can I do?" Mingxiang asked with a confused look on her face.
"I purchased some copyrights in the island country during this period, and I need someone who can connect with the company here."
"Mr. Luo Fan, you want me to act as a microphone between your company and the companies you purchased the copyright from, right?"
"That's understandable."
"I'm not sure if I can do it anymore." Saimae Mingxiang said after a moment of silence.
"You can try to do it for a while, and if it doesn't work, I'll find someone else.
And you are not working alone. We have a cooperative relationship with Jianhua Law Firm. If you have any questions about copyright issues, you can consult with them.
The most important thing is that you don’t need to make any decisions, you just need to truthfully convey our company’s opinions to them, or convey their opinions to us truthfully.”
After listening to Luo Fan's words, Qianqian Mingxiang thought for a while before nodding in agreement.
Seeing Cai Qian Mingxiang agree, Luo Fan smiled.
Whether Mingxiang agreed or not made a big difference to Luo Fan.
If Mingxiang had refused just now, Luo Fan would most likely go to Jianhua Law Firm first, entrust the matter to them, and wait until he returns to China to find someone he can trust.
But it will take a month or two to go back and forth. During this period, the copyright contract is completely handed over to Jianhua Law Firm.
You must know that these contracts themselves were signed by Jianhua Law Firm, and the supervision of the contracts is left to them. If they do something, Luo Fan will not know about it.
Based on his experience in cooperating with Tsaizen Mingxiang in purchasing hundreds of things in his previous life, Luo Fan had considerable trust in Tsaizen Mingxiang.
That's why Luo Fan insisted on letting Saizen Mingxiang be the microphone.
After finishing the formal chat, Luo Fan turned his attention to the two geishas. Cao Shuai and Zhu Bin also looked at the geisha playing the shamisen curiously, and even Li Jingyi would cast curious glances from time to time.
"Mr. Luo Fan, are you interested in geisha?" Saimae Mingxiang asked in English.
"I'm really interested, mainly because I haven't seen it before." Luo Fan replied with a smile.
"That's it! In fact, these two are just the most ordinary geishas. They have learned to sing, dance and play shamisen since they were young. They should be very proficient in some of the skills that geisha must know." Saimae Mingxiang said.
"Then will they do that?" Zhu Bin asked in English.
"That aspect? Does it refer to H's matter?"
Zhu Bin nodded.
"No, this type of geisha will not sell their bodies. If Mr. Zhu has any special ideas, just forget it as soon as possible!" Mingxiang said with a smile.
"I don't have such dirty thoughts about people in the third dimension!" Zhu Bin argued.
"It turns out Mr. Zhu is a housekeeper! Sorry, I was rude."
Zhu Bin's mouth twitched when he heard this, because there was a hint of disgust in Mingxiang's tone just now.
Zhu Bin suddenly understood why the male protagonist in Japanese comics would deny that he is an otaku. It turns out that girls from the island country really don’t like otakus.
"Miss Caiqian, you just said that these two are just ordinary geishas. Are there any extraordinary geishas?" Luo Fan changed the subject and asked.
"Yes, you may not believe it when I tell you, but one of my college classmates is working as a geisha, and she is a rather special kind."
"The one who sells his appearance?" Luo Fan asked curiously.
"That's right! By the way, do you know what a geisha is?" Saimae Mingxiang asked.
"Geisha is actually not a profession, but a system. This system appeared around the 17th century. Only trained performers must be qualified to become geisha.
In the beginning, the main job of geisha was not to please men. They were required to be eloquent and have the skills to sing, dance and play shamisen. They mainly used their talents to please customers and make them willing to spend money, similar to
In order to save his image, Zhu Bin repeated what Luo Fan had given them to popularize science.
"What Mr. Zhu is talking about is the history of geisha, but now geisha is more than just that." Said Maeka said.
"What else is there?"
“There are only one or two thousand geisha who actually learn to sing, dance and play shamisen from childhood, but there are quite a few who use the name of geisha to engage in paid dating.
For example, my classmate, and even some small stars in the entertainment industry, and members of outdated girl groups, these people are called high-end geisha."
After listening to what Mingxiang said just now, Cao Shuai's eyes lit up. His English level was relatively average. He only passed level 4, but he could still understand some.
He is interested in Cao Shuai, the high-end geisha whom Mingxiang mentioned before. He likes high-end things.
After drinking and eating, everyone left the restaurant. The meal cost a total of more than 400,000 island coins, which was the most expensive meal Luo Fan had since coming to the island country.
Afterwards, Luo Fan called lawyer Hu Wenhao from Jianhua Law Firm and asked him to draw up an employment contract, and asked Caiqian Mingxiang to sign the contract in front of Hu Wenhao.
Hu Wenhao also knew Luo Fan's intention, and this was a normal operation.
After arranging the work of Saizen Mingxiang, things on the island country are finally over.
At 9 o'clock in the morning on the island country the next day, Luo Fan and the others took a flight back to the country together.
This time Luo Fan also bought business class for Cao Shuai and Zhu Bin. The two have done a good job during this period. Thanks to them, they can buy these copyrights so smoothly. They should be rewarded.
This trip to the island country took a total of 20 days. During this time, the company also had a serious accident, so Luo Fan and the others returned to the company directly as soon as they got off the plane.
The first thing Luo Fan did when he returned to the company was to call all the senior executives over for a meeting.
"Mr. Cao, please tell everyone about the results of our island tour!" Luo Fan said to Cao Shuai.
Cao Shuai nodded, opened a folder and read: "We brought a total of 52.8 million Chinese dollars to the island country this time, which is equivalent to about 8 million yuan. Now we still have 6.86 million Chinese dollars left, which is about 1.04 million yuan.
.
The company's initial goal this time was to obtain 10-year copyrights for five feature-length animations.
Due to price issues, we only bought three of them, but the short animation series went from buying only one "A Certain Scientific Railgun" to buying 13 short animations.
We also acquired an additional % stake.
I have already sent the specific acquisition information to everyone. If you have any questions, you can ask directly."
"Mr. Cao, how much does the average copyright for one episode of these short animations cost?" Xu Jiale was the first to ask.
Chapter completed!
