musicians of old

Chapter 450 Key Negotiation
"Oh, thank you." Roy curled his lips lightly upon hearing this.

In fact, this matter is more life-threatening than being the dean of the "Old Conservatory of Music" and developing a multinational theater chain. As the eldest lady of the Bologna School, how could she not discuss with important people.

The problem is that President McAdam logically did not agree with her, and the consensus was still hanging in the air.

And the other person has not yet considered whether or not to mention it and how to mention it.
This trip to the Western Continent was accompanied by the protection of two comprehensionists. Roy himself was also a high-ranking person, and it was a big show in terms of status, strength, and security. But she knew in her heart that Bishop Christopher was helping each other out of friendship, and Aunt Hermosa of her own school.
The kind-hearted old lady sitting next to Christopher is the eldest sister of President McAdam's generation, and she is also a teacher of the school who understands the three levels. This time, in addition to protecting safety, she is more or less guarded. Roy means.

"I didn't reveal at all that I was planning to explore the anomalous area. With this plan to visit the Special Inspection Office, is she certain that I plan to fish in troubled waters?"

"But she didn't tell me either."

"Is it because I never took the initiative to mention where I am, so she didn't take the initiative to mention whether she went to the abnormal area, but she kept sharing her itinerary with me, so she thought I would investigate what she was doing , if she wants to enter the abnormal zone, can she force me to show up?"

Fan Ning was thinking about this matter in his heart, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that his mind was starting to get stuck.

Just at this moment, he noticed the messenger's appearance, and spread his palms under the tablecloth.

The invisible silk thread has disappeared, and the palm of the hand is ignited with a phantom of flames, and a compound eye composed of more than 30 pairs of eyes stares at him in the middle.

Relatively speaking, the movement is quite small and reasonable.

Fanning grabbed a vegetable pancake, sandwiched two slices of ham and cucumber, and spread a butter pick on it.

"You said that, I suddenly thought of a question.

What if, I mean, if someone's words don't count, what should they do? "

Looking at the small words turned into butter, Fanning suddenly remembered the incident when he drove Roy back to the manor shortly before leaving the Northern Continent last year.

"What can I do, I'm desperate too"

Fanning bit the cake into his stomach with a "click", and he sent the new reply to the messenger with invisible spiritual fire:
"One more debt later."

Putting your hand back under the tablecloth, you squeezed out the burning flame.

For the first time, he found that the group of big eyeballs that usually had no emotion showed a humanized puzzled expression just before entering the astral world, which probably meant——

You two are clearly sitting face to face, why do you keep asking me to go around in circles in the astral world? ? ?
Fanning rubbed his head, and looked at Roy naturally again.

She gently shook the wine glass, her eyes fell on the liquid in the glass, and she returned to the formal topic:
"Originally, our first round of building plans in the Western Continent was to cover 50% of the counties, 30% of the urban areas and small towns, and 20% of the blocks and small towns."

"But at the moment, due to the variables that you all know, the progress of construction can only be slowed down. The Kaplan Art Fund Committee has reached a consensus that the number of places in the first round will be reduced by half on the original basis."

All the guests present nodded slightly.

They knew that the variable Roy was talking about was the war triggered by a series of collateral effects after the United Principality of Phaidon disappeared out of thin air.

Although the current conflicts are only in the two countries of Janus and Lydia in the western continent, and Tiolein currently maintains neutrality, it will undoubtedly have a huge comprehensive adverse effect on this kind of transnational cooperation project.

"Of course, no matter how it is reduced, the 14 county-level theaters in Janus, San Porto, as the royal city, must be included."

"However, when it comes to the urban areas and small towns below, which are the so-called 'dioceses' of your country, if they are halved to 15%, there will only be 50 schools left in the entire Western Continent, and 29 schools will be initially set for the Holy Janus Kingdom. As a result, the distribution under the San Porto jurisdiction must have also decreased along with the trend."

29. Tukeville figured out the number.

The number of places in urban areas and small towns is very important, because only when this level is determined, can the "blocks and small towns" below be discussed. A place that has not even established a third-level institution will naturally not be built for you The fourth level is the most basic institution.

If it is absolutely evenly divided, each of the 14 counties will build approximately 2 parishes.

Of course, in reality, as a royal city, the proportion of San Porto will definitely be tilted. Maybe 2-3 houses, maybe 4-5 houses, but how many houses can be occupied by the 5 parishes under my responsibility? Hard to say.

"The basic situation is like this." Roy looked as usual, and gradually transitioned to the atmosphere of negotiation. "Then, next, I will explain to you a few core cooperation terms."

It was a matter of Owen's supervisory duties, and he listened with bated breath.

"First, in the name of the building, the venues built in the Western Continent do not require the name of the 'Turner Art Hall', nor the name of the School of Guidance of its patronage forces, but the name of the Bologna School behind me as the person in charge. The same is not required. Only the name and logo of the 'Kaplan Art Fund' need to be reflected, publicized and maintained."

"What!?" As soon as the first point came out, all the forces present couldn't help but exclaimed.

What kind of incomprehensible condition is this?Several people in the church got acquainted with each other.

Owen's brows were also furrowed in thought.

Not mentioning the name of the Turner Art Hall can be understood as showing weakness to the special inspection hall, not mentioning the guiding school behind the asset owner and orchestra leader Sheeran, this can be understood as this part of the transnational project, further showing to the local authorities Sincerity, to reduce their psychological burden on the former matter, after all, the former director was also guiding the school
In fact, these senior executives have more or less inquired that the reason why Miss Roy was able to persuade President McAdam not to take up an important position in the school after graduating from public school, but to preside over such a arduous business is that Because the conditions did not include the names of "Turner Art Hall" and "Guiding School", after the establishment of the Northland Cinemas, the reputation behind it was only an official organization of the Bologna School, and most of the first batch of artists who used the platform were from academic schools. , Naturally, it is a matter of making money without losing money.

And now, the theaters in the Western Continent, even the Bologna School can be ignored?
The pies that fell from the sky were too pure!Was Miss Roy instructed by someone behind her, or was she too cautious about the Special Patrol Office, or did she have other plans?
Owen was even a little uncertain for a moment. In fact, since the incident in the Southern Continent, the threat of the abnormal area has suddenly increased several levels. Special cases are temporarily treated as special cases. The internal policy of the Special Inspection Office has been adjusted. For this chain of theaters from Turner Hall of the Arts, the review standards have been quietly relaxed.

Fan Ning still chewed slowly, listening calmly.

"Second, in terms of hardware construction, the method of the North Continent is still followed, fully funded by the 'Kaplan Art Fund', and the territories are only responsible for matchmaking, cost optimization and post-maintenance repairs."

"Third, in terms of personnel management, in addition to the management of the county-level theaters, there are two levels down, and the territories have their own personnel rights. For the employment of full-time personnel such as conductors, teachers, and clerks, the 'Kaplan Art Fund' A 50% subsidy will be given.”

"Four, on the incentive measures." Roy succinctly explained several core conditions.

The members of the church even became hot to breathe.

I've heard that the Northern Continent has built a theater chain and the response is very good. I thought that the conditions in the Western Continent would be somewhat discounted, but I didn't expect it to be the opposite!
Bishop Turkville would like to let his diocese take up all the places for Janus!
Take other people's initial investment and mature system, build your own cinema, hire your own artists, and develop your own art career. The only obligation is to maintain your own money in the later stage, and spread the "Kaplan Art Fund" well. The name of the public welfare funder of course?
"What about our conditions?" Tucville took a deep breath and said, "Miss Roy, go ahead and ask."

Roy motioned to an assistant next to him to take out a thick stack of large-sized manuals.

The cover is "Kaplan Art Fund Chain Theater Operation and Management Rules".

"What needs to be done locally is the content of this manual except for the few obligations in the core clauses." Roy said, "There will be no extra money or people, It will not use mysterious side resources as a bargaining chip. It is purely a business category. Our theater chain has a mature and scientific management model. evaluation to ensure the quality of the artistic output.”

"This is a responsible thing." Tucville immediately made arrangements, "After you go back, you will print multiple copies of it, organize study and research, and urge the political leaders of each diocese to do a good job in implementing it, and actively cooperate with this investigation. of the best of the best.”

"It will take some time to study it thoroughly." Roy nodded, "So the main object of today's negotiations is not the church, but the Inspector Owen's side."

"I would like to know, as the leader of the discussion group responsible for the overall art of mankind, what kind of incentives can the Special Inspection Office give us to promote the chain of cinemas to the Western Continent?"

Looking at Roy's blue eyes asking about himself, Owen felt that it was time for him to play, so he smiled and said:
"This is a well-done cause with great achievements. When the operation is compliant and legal, the attitude of my special inspectorate will be more important than that of the local church. If Miss Roy has any appeals, feel free to raise them, even if it is a little bigger I can also help to fight for the leaders’ demands.”

"The key." Roy shook the sparkling liquid in the wine glass, "I hereby pre-apply, hoping that the Special Inspection Office will moderately open the specific climbing path key, so that the Bologna School and the Guidance School can have several promotion places for those who understand , including myself.”

Hearing such a sensitive question, Fan Ning slowed down his chewing movements, and the other comprehenders and high-ranking knowers on the table also pricked up their ears.

Owen immediately restrained his smile:

"Sorry, Miss Roy, this request cannot be fulfilled, and I don't even need to convey it."
