Chapter 3839: Chapter 3827: Mission Incomplete
"Lin Bro, are you going to see Director Zhao?"
"Smart guess."
"I just saw Director Zhao leave, she’s probably not in her office."
"I’ll give her a call."
Zhao Yuhuan chuckled, "Lin Bro, I’ve noticed you’ve been looking for Director Zhao a lot lately, are you two getting along sneakily?"
"Don’t be so gossipy, I’m married with kids, no way I would do such a thing."
"Actually, I think this kind of thing is quite normal. In today’s society, as long as people have some abilities, they often mess around outside."
Zhao Yuhuan laughed slyly, "Actually, Director Zhao is quite attractive, with a great figure, and most importantly, she’s got quite a size, even I’m tempted."
"You young girls nowadays have increasingly improper thoughts."
"Haha..."
Since he had business to attend to, Lin Yi didn’t chat idly with Zhao Yuhuan.
Walking out of the office, Lin Yi dialed Zhao Jing’s number.
"Where are you?"
"Discussing things with Old Ma, come over if you’re free."
"Alright, I have something to discuss with you."
"In the studio on the second floor, you can see us when you get here."
"Okay."
After hanging up, Lin Yi went to the studio on the second floor.
He opened the studio door to see the two standing together, gesturing and discussing the show’s matters.
"Lin Yi is here."
Seeing Lin Yi come in, the two ended their discussion and sat on a nearby chair.
"Did you call me because there’s something up?" Zhao Jing asked.
"It’s about the naming sponsorship. The person is here and wants to meet with you to discuss it."
Hearing this, Zhao Jing’s eyes lit up.
"Which company is it from? Did they mention how much they want to invest?"
"Lingyun Group, but they didn’t specify how much, saying they want to evaluate our program first before deciding."
"What?! What did you say! Lingyun Group?! The one researching chips and lithography machines?" Zhao Jing exclaimed.
"Yes, their company has a phone business and wants to take this opportunity to advertise."
"Where are they? Take me to meet them quickly."
"They’re just outside."
"Quickly, let’s go together."
Putting down what she was doing, Zhao Jing adjusted her clothes, touched up her makeup, and quickly walked to the TV station’s entrance.
Lin Yi messaged Tian Yan, and people from both sides met at the television station’s entrance.
"Hello, Director Zhao, I’m the Vice President in charge of investment at Lingyun Group, my name is Tian Yan."
Upon learning Tian Yan’s role, Zhao Jing and Ma Guotao felt a flutter of excitement.
In their understanding, for a company like Lingyun Group to send someone over was already a huge compliment to their program.
Unexpectedly, the person who came was a Vice President, which meant they needed to up their welcoming game.
"Hello, I’m the show’s producer Zhao Jing, and this is our director, Ma Guotao."
"Hello, Director Zhao, Hello Director Ma."
Zhao Jing made a gesture pointing towards the office, inviting Tian Yan inside.
Once in the office, Zhao Jing had someone brew some tea and, after some small talk, got down to business. Lin Yi sat in, but had no comments on the negotiation content.
The discussion and negotiation lasted about half an hour.
Zhao Jing meticulously explained the program’s content and her thoughts, covering many details about their sponsorship, and demonstrating with actions that they wouldn’t let their sponsorship fees go to waste.
"I’ve understood the show’s specifics, but how much exactly we can offer will need a meeting," Tian Yan said:
"However, I have another proposal. If you agree, we can decide right now."
"Sure, please go ahead."
"We don’t want to participate in the bidding process for ad slots, a fixed price of 30 million, and we’ll buy your exclusive naming rights."
As Tian Yan quoted the price, Lin Yi glanced at her.
The price was quite high, and Tian Yan might have other motives for doing this.
Hearing the quote of 30 million, Zhao Jing and Ma Guotao’s hearts raced.
Their plan was to guarantee at least 3 million, aiming for 5 million.
Getting 30 million would be considered satisfactory, and 50 million would be excellent.
Now, with Tian Yan offering 30 million directly, their anxieties vanished in an instant.
"No problem, we can sign the contract now, and give you the exclusive naming rights."
"Great, I will have someone come over tomorrow to discuss the details. Once everything is finalized, we can sign the contract."
"Alright."
"I have other matters to attend to, so I won’t disturb you any longer."
Tian Yan stood up to shake hands with the two, ready to leave.
"I’ll see you out."
"No need, don’t want to hold up your work."
At this moment, Zhao Jing saw Lin Yi getting up and said:
"You go see President Tian out."
"Alright."
After some polite exchanges, Lin Yi and Tian Yan left.
"Did you offer 30 million because you have other intentions?"
Tian Yan nodded, "Nowadays, shows rely heavily on hype. Once this program becomes popular, 30 million will be well worth it."
Lin Yi didn’t say much else, exclusive naming fees nowadays were indeed exorbitant, and 30 million wasn’t overly expensive.
"Oh, isn’t that Lin Yi."
The moment they reached the entrance, a teasing voice called out.
The speaker was none other than Wang Minji.
"I heard your program is entering the recruitment stage, have you found a suitable sponsor yet? Need me to introduce a few? If no one sponsors it, the TV station will be embarrassed alongside you."
"No need to worry about us, you should go cozy up to Xu Qingqing while you have the time."
"I admit, when it comes to banter, I can’t beat you, let’s see in action, I want to see your capabilities when challenging me."
"We’ll see about that."
With a smug expression, Wang Minji walked off, while Tian Yan’s eyes followed him.
"Director Lin, who is that person?"
"The producer of another music show, we’re creating this program to take a shot at them for showing off."
"Indeed, he seems like the type to be momentarily smug, people like him don’t usually last long in the workplace."
"That’s why I’m setting out to teach him a lesson."
"No need for you to step in for this, I can handle it."
"No rush, take it slow, play with him leisurely, since free time equals idle time."
Lin Yi saw Tian Yan to the door, watched her leave, then went back inside.
At the same time, he opened the system panel in his mind.
The task progress was still (2/3).
Returning to the office, Zhao Yuhuan was still busy editing.
"Have all issues with Feng Zhengxiang been resolved? Did he call you?"
"Hmm? Of course it’s settled, the letter of forgiveness has been signed."
Zhao Yuhuan looked puzzled at Lin Yi.
"We solved this issue together, why are you asking me such strange questions?"
