Chapter 113: Batman' Scheduled! Marvel Now Surnamed Xu!

Wait, Ivanka?

Xu Can could never have imagined meeting this woman today.

Right now, she might just be a wealthy merchant's daughter,

but in ten years, her father Tang Nade would become a man frequently seen on television news, a headline in current affairs.

Even if Tang Nade looked like a clown, his influence in North America was undeniable.

"How did you end up here?"

Xu Can was very curious.

Her father Tang Nade had previously dabbled in Hollywood, even acting in quite a few roles; mixing in the Hollywood circle was normal.

Ivanka should have just graduated by now.

"I manage this hotel."

Facing a question that was slightly out of line, Ivanka still smiled very elegantly.

"As for Mr. Xu, 'Twilight' and your film are competitors; Mr. Xu appearing here also surprises me a bit."

"I came with Emma."

"I see."

Ivanka sat at the bar counter, turning slightly to look at Emma Stone chatting in the distance.

"Are you really in a relationship?" she asked curiously.

"We can only say we are good friends," Xu Can answered truthfully.

"It's a bit of a pity that Spider-Man and Gwen didn't end up together."

"Do wealthy young ladies also enjoy shipping couples?" Xu Can smiled with a hint of amusement.

"I am just an ordinary woman, so naturally I like romantic stories. I am an original reader of 'Twilight', and I also have some investment in the film."

Ivanka lifted her wine glass and took a light sip.

"Then do you like comics?"

Xu Can's keen sense of smell made him realize that the wealthy young lady before him was none other than the backer he had been seeking for so long.

Even if she didn't invest, once they were familiar, it shouldn't be hard to ask her for help introducing a loan.

"I quite like them; I really like Spider-Man. I watched your film twice."

"Oh? Then what do you think? You can give suggestions freely; if there are shortcomings, we will try our best to correct them in the sequel."

"Let me think..."

Ivanka had no airs of a wealthy princess; instead, she thought about the film very seriously.

She asked many strange and unusual questions,

such as how one could see clearly wearing a Spider-Man mask, what to do if one needed to use the restroom while wearing a one-piece suit, whether Spider-Man would join the Chouzhelian Alliance, and so on...

The two started with Spider-Man, chatted for a long time about American comics, and then moved on to current Hollywood films.

After getting familiar, Xu Can discovered that beneath the seemingly dignified wealthy young lady, a little girl also lived in her heart.

It was only when Stone called out to Xu Can that he stood up to take his leave.

"Ivanka, it's a pleasure to meet you; today's conversation was very pleasant."

"Me too; meeting a favorite celebrity counts as fulfilling a wish."

The two shook hands; Ivanka's hand was quite slender, her skin fair and tender, and slightly cool to the touch.

"By the way, let's add each other on Face."

"Sure." Ivanka agreed readily.

Xu Can felt slightly reassured inside; it seemed the preliminary plan was achieved; the combined number of other producers and investors at the scene probably didn't compare to knowing this young lady.

Everything proceeded as normal afterwards; Galaxy Entertainment's business was booming and developing rapidly.

Taylor Swift's new album 'Fearless' was officially released!

Her debut album 'Taylor Swift' had garnered 3.9 million copies in sales, setting a stunning record in the industry, and Swift was nominated for the Grammy Best New Artist award.

Her second album of the year, with Xu Can's help, appeared early; in the week of its release, it debuted at number one on the North American Billboard singles chart!

The hit single 'Love Story' debuted at number 23 on the Billboard song chart!

Multiple songs on the album broke into the top 100!

Less than a week after release, 'Fearless' sales had already surpassed 1 million! It is expected to have a chance of breaking 5 million copies!

Previously, she was just a "country female singer" with a small reputation in the industry; now she has spread her wings and is about to soar!

"Xu, the company says they want to hold a tour concert for me; can I really do it?"

With the huge success of the new album, Swift thought she would finally have time for a vacation.

Instead, the company planned to strike while the iron was hot and hold a nationwide tour concert for her!

For most singers, album sales basically don't make money; concerts, business endorsements, and the like are the main sources of profit.

As an enterprise spanning film and music, Galaxy Entertainment naturally could not walk on one leg.

The music department also needed to create value.

If the first round of the tour concert was completed, it could earn Xu Can quite a lot.

"This isn't important; what matters is, do you want to do it yourself?"

Xu Can spoke as gently as possible.

Simply as a boss, he certainly wanted to maximize the commercial value of Swift, just like the previous Big Machine Records boss.

But as her good friend, plus an ambiguous romantic interest, Xu Can felt quite sorry for this young girl.
