Chapter 1036

Lu Chuan's certainty firmly held the other party in check.

Even Ding Ning understood that with Qiao Qiao's current scale, he wasn't actually worth that price.

But the signing fee he quoted was a gamble that they wouldn't dare to give up—

Once they give up on signing, if Qiao Qiao signs with a competitor, wouldn't that just be handing performance results to someone else?

Signing a contract is signing for the future, and it's also signing for a monopoly within a set period.

But...

"8 million is really too little."

"And a two-year contract actually greatly affects our platform's planning for him—at least five years, we would set a complete five-year plan to arrange everything for him comprehensively."

"As for the homepage screen push..."

She took a deep breath, and at this moment, she also changed her demands earnestly and tactfully—negotiation, isn't it just a matter of going back and forth to drive prices down?

But the live-streaming platform in front of her still had a conscience. And coincidentally, Lu Chuan, as someone who often sells copyrights, even if he had a company helping him negotiate, as a top-tier talent, he had experienced such scenes many times.

Nowadays, the emphasis on the IP industry chain means that most copyright buyers are directly related to the entertainment industry.

And as everyone knows, contracts given by the entertainment industry never have anything to do with conscience.

Therefore, the more earnestly Ding Ning made his demands, the more Lu Chuan took the initiative, to the point where his expression became increasingly composed.

Against the backdrop of the two quail-like female colleagues opposite who had neither bargaining power nor outstanding looks, he was shining all over!

So much so that Grandma, who had been watching this side the whole time, suddenly slapped Grandpa on the shoulder:

"It's him! Don't change!"

Grandpa:... Hiss! Why is she so strong?

Just as he turned his head to say a few words to her, he saw Grandma let go, leaving him and his wheelchair where they were, while she herself hurried over to join Until Wu Lan's vegetable-washing army, unable to contain her joy:

"Until Wu Lan! Look at that young man over there, how handsome! How well-matched he is with our Tan Tan! You tell Tan Tan later not to pick anyone else, we want this one!"

She pointed secretly in that direction, just as Lu Chuan and Song Tan stood up together, and the tall, handsome man reached out to shake hands with the other party politely.

Graceful and exceptionally moving.

And the three people washing vegetables looked over following Grandma's finger, and they were all stunned.

Until Wu Lan's expression was strange, and Aunt also hesitated to speak.

It was the beautiful woman next to them, with stylish curly hair and red lipstick, who smiled, her eyes bright, looking a bit embarrassed:

"You're too kind, he's actually not that handsome... but they really are a good match."

Grandma:...

She realized belatedly that something was up.

"Who are you..." she asked cautiously.

And the other party instantly beamed with a warm smile: "Tan Tan's grandma, I'm the mom of that young man over there, Lu Chuan!"

"Look at how you praised him just now, I'm embarrassed."

Now it was Grandma's turn to be unhappy.

How could she praise him in front of the man's family? Isn't this giving them a chance to be proud?

But she couldn't help but peek at the young man named Lu Chuan again—he was walking side-by-side with Tan Tan, tilting his head slightly to chat about something, and Tan Tan's expression was very happy.

But when the other party tilted his head like that, what were those red stripes near his earlobe?

Grandma's spirits lifted; if he was a tattooed guy, she'd have to deduct points!

Who knew that when this question was asked, the atmosphere among the three people washing vegetables became even more bizarre.

Before Until Wu Lan could speak, Lu Jing said first: "He was injured once before, and some scars haven't faded yet."

Grandma pondered, if the injury was on the head, wouldn't that easily lead to sequelae?

But Until Wu Lan quickly said: "Mom! Don't underestimate Lu Chuan. This child is good-looking, and his character is top-tier!"

"Look at that scar, how deep it is! That was when Tan Tan was in a car accident before, and he was injured trying his best to save her. Such a good child, we don't even know how to thank him!"

"What?!" Grandma was instantly shocked: "Tan Tan was in a car accident?!"

"Yeah!" Until Wu Lan nodded: "It was posted on Tremolo at the time, and the child hid it from us when she came back. There was such a big piece of gauze under her hair, and it showed whenever she moved... You tell me, if it weren't for young Lu, how dangerous that would have been!"

How would Grandma know that?

Just hearing everyone say 'life-saving benefactor' over and over, as a trendy old lady, she thought it was just the exaggerated talk often found on Tremolo about 'saving my dog's life' or something...

"Oh my!"

She nodded vigorously: "That's so good!"

As she spoke, she snatched the vegetables from Lu Jing's hands: "Young Lu's mom, we owe you for raising such an excellent child—this Until Wu Lan is also ignorant, how could she ask you to do chores?"

"Come, come, I'll pour you some tea! Tan Tan's house has good tea!"

Caught off guard, Lu Jing: "Ah?"

Oh my, this elderly hospitality, Lu Jing couldn't handle it at all. She was picking vegetables and chatting, and everyone was revealing their backgrounds—actually, it was quite nice!

For example, she now knew what Tan Tan was like as a child, where she went to college, and why she returned to her hometown... There was a lot of information!

Of course, in return, a lot of Lu Chuan's affairs were also spilled.

At this moment, facing Grandma's enthusiasm, she had to shift her focus—

"Xiao Chuan, come here, pour a cup of tea for Tan Tan's grandma!"

She still had to pick vegetables, she didn't have time!

Lu Chuan was chatting with Song Tan about the negotiation just now—

"There's a lot to do today, and signing the contract isn't something that needs to be done this very moment. Let's put forward our requirements and let them ponder the rest slowly."

"I estimate the final bottom line should be a 5 million signing fee and a three-year contract. As for the other requirements, they should all be met."

"Do you think this price and term are acceptable?"

What could Song Tan say?

She couldn't be more satisfied!

It seems her brother Yanping still needs to go for further studies; he needs to learn more! He's far behind!

At this moment, she tilted her head to look at Lu Chuan again, feeling that he wasn't just good-looking anymore—he was literally glowing with holy light!

Oh my, he's so charming!

Little Song watched with delight, but Lu Chuan didn't notice and instead mentioned another matter—

"They vaguely asked about your relationship with the local government just now. I heard from Secretary Zhu yesterday that city leaders are coming today, right?"

"Perfect. When they meet people, you can take the opportunity to mention the village's live-streaming room—you are concerned about your hometown, and the platform is enthusiastic about helping farmers. It's a great opportunity for both sides to show their support."

After finishing, he exhaled slowly, letting go of his previously certain and composed posture, feeling a bit embarrassed instead:

"I was in a rush, so that's all I've learned. But since the contract isn't signed yet, if there are any omissions, you can tell me—"

Before he finished speaking, he met Song Tan's gaze, which was full of exclamation and admiration.

Only then did he seem to realize that while everyone praised him for being good-looking, in reality, Song Tan was the one with the most natural, unadorned beauty.

Lu Chuan paused and silently looked away.
