Because they were too far away, Lin Zhengyi didn't hear what the two were saying.
Before they could even exchange two words, Cheng Wenjing's face showed increasing impatience.
In the end, Judy Tom had no choice but to leave.
However, instead of returning to Lin Zhengyi's side, she turned and went into the bar's restroom.
A while later!
Tom Judy is out.
But at this moment, she had changed her clothes.
She wore a black, tight-fitting short dress with black stockings, black high heels, and long black gloves. She carried a black handbag, wore bright red lipstick, and had removed her hat. Her long, wavy hair cascaded over her shoulders.
With her voluptuous figure, she exuded a captivating charm with a touch of nobility, making her incredibly alluring.
A moment!
She attracted the attention of many men in the bar.
However, Tang Judy completely ignored all of this and went to Cheng Wenjing again.
this time!
Lin Zhengyi still couldn't hear what the two were saying.
But it was noticeable that Cheng Wenjing had changed her attitude. When faced with Tang Judy's advances, she was no longer so impatient, but instead smiled and chatted with her.
From what Lin Zhengyi saw, it was easy to see that the two seemed to be having a very pleasant conversation.
Chatted for a while.
Tom Judy is back.
"See? I wasn't wrong, was I?" Lin Zhengyi asked.
"Indeed, you won!"
After saying that, Tom Judy added with a smile, "This meal is on me!"
She paused for a moment, then added, "However, I have something to do, so I'll have to go now!"
As she spoke, she waved to the staff.
Immediately!
A staff member then came over.
“Let’s settle the bill!” Tom Judy said.
"Okay, please wait a moment, I'll get you the bill!"
The staff member quickly turned around to get the bill.
quickly!
After receiving the bill, he said, "This is your bill, the total is two thousand four hundred!"
"Here, no need to look for it!"
Tang Judy took three thousand-dollar gold bull bills out of her bag and placed them on the table.
immediately!
"I'm leaving!"
She said goodbye and left in a hurry.
Shortly after she left, Lin Zhengyi saw that Cheng Wenjing had also packed her things and left.
Seeing this, Lin Zhengyi couldn't help but smile and shake his head.
Although the two walked one after the other and seemed to have no connection, how could he not know what was going on?
I guess we need to find a place for a date?
Was it just so he wouldn't think there was anything between them that they chose to walk one after the other?
However, this is none of his business!
Later!
After finishing his wine and snacks, Lin Zhengyi felt a bit bored and left.
-
Back home!
After placing a late-night snack he had picked up on the way on the table, Lin Zhengyi looked at the empty house, which was empty because Xiao Jieba and Liangzi had not yet returned from Bali.
Think about it!
He put the late-night snack in the microwave and set the timer to heat it up. Then he decided to take a shower first and then eat the snack slowly.
But this time!
"Jingle Bell!"
The phone rang at home!
"Hey?"
He stepped forward, picked up the phone, and said something.
"It's me!" Ed's voice came back from the phone.
"Oh, Ed, what brings you here so late?" Lin Zhengyi asked with a smile, then sat down on the sofa next to him.
"Late? It's late where you are, but it's still daytime here!"
After saying something with a smile, Ed added with a slightly mysterious tone, "As for what it is... guess?"
Let me guess?
Lin Zhengyi smiled helplessly and began to ponder what could possibly make Ed make a phone call so late at night.
First of all, it can't be about reprinting Harry Potter.
After all, only five million copies were printed last time. Lin Zhengyi estimated that even if sales were fast this time, it would still take one or two months, or even two or three months, to sell out completely.
Therefore, when Ed calls Kulai right now, it's definitely not about the reprint issue.
That's not a matter of reprinting; it just leaves one problem: film copyright!
Last time, Ed said that a company was interested in the film rights to his Harry Potter movies, but Lin Zhengyi thought it would be too much trouble to negotiate himself, and he was also afraid that the film company would try to cheat him, so he asked Ed to talk to the company that was interested in the Harry Potter film rights.
If you think about it, the time is about right now.
Therefore, barring any unforeseen circumstances, this should be it.
Immediately!
"Has the film rights been agreed upon?" Lin Zhengyi asked.
"As expected of you, you guessed it right away!"
Ed said with a smile, then added, "As you requested, I went to Warner Bros. and after several discussions, we finally reached an agreement to sell the film rights to Harry Potter for one million pounds in cash plus a three percent cut!"
He paused, then complained, "You have no idea how much I had to talk to get that 3% cut. Warner was only willing to give me 2% at most, but I kept fighting to get it!"
listen!
Lin Zhengyi then smiled and said, "Alright, alright, I know you've worked hard. Here's what we'll do: you can give me half the cash, and the rest is my treat for you to drinks!"
"Don't!"
Ed refused without hesitation, then added, "We're brothers, what's the big deal about taking your money? Besides, I'm helping you not for your money, as long as you give my family the Harry Potter sequels under the same conditions!"
The two are brothers, and he's just helping his brother out. Can he take money from him?
Definitely not!
What's the big deal about taking money?
"Okay, okay, since you've said so, how could I refuse?" Lin Zhengyi said with a smile.
When he first asked Ed to help publish Harry Potter, he had already decided that Ed's company would be the first choice for future sequels.
This time!
"By the way, speaking of sequels, you haven't told me yet when you'll be writing one, have you?"
Ed suddenly thought of something and quickly asked a question, then added, "It's best to release a sequel as soon as the first book has sold out."
"This way we can maximize the popularity boost from the first book!"
"Don't worry, the sequel is already being written, and it should be ready for you next year!" Lin Zhengyi said seriously.
This is just a hoax.
He definitely didn't write it.
Lin Zhengyi has been very busy lately, how could he have time?
However, it is a fact that the sequel will be released next year.
Because next year, he estimates that Harry Potter 1 will have sold out, and when Harry Potter 1 gradually loses its competitiveness in the market, it will be the best time for Harry Potter 2 to be released.
As Ed said, releasing it at that time would allow it to inherit the popularity of Harry Potter 1 to the greatest extent.
"Next year? Okay, remember to let me know when you're done!" Ed said happily.
He paused for a moment, then added, "By the way, the contract with the film company will be the same as before. I'll fax it to you, you just need to sign it and send it back!"
“Okay!” Lin Zhengyi agreed.
"Alright, I won't keep you from sleeping any longer, that's all!" Ed said and hung up the phone.
Chapter 147 The Raven's Hothead
The next day, Lin Zhengyi signed the contract using a fax machine and sent it back. The money was then deposited into his account.
Eight million!
With his previous savings, he now has more than ten million in cash.
