Chapter 793: Chapter 784: Open and Secret Struggles (6) Chapter 793: Chapter 784: Open and Secret Struggles (6) “I really appreciate Brother Qin’s care for me, and I am grateful for your consideration this time. However, if those conditions are the prerequisite to obtaining the shares, I think I would rather not have them. Bring me a new contract next time, and I will sign it.”
Qin Baizhou truly hadn’t expected Xia Siyu to be so… Should he say that she’s genuinely above material interests, to the extent that she treats wealth as nothing, or is she just foolish? He understands her urgent desire as an illegitimate daughter of a wealthy family to be recognized by her clan, but that doesn’t have to conflict with financial gain.
Or could it be that she has already received substantial benefits from her family, and thus doesn’t value these shares?
He tested the waters, “Is it because the share percentage is too low?”
Although the negotiated shares might only be three percent, if an entertainment company develops well, a market value of a hundred billion isn’t out of the question. Her three percent would then be worth thirty billion. Even if the company only develops moderately, as long as it goes public, the earnings would still be substantial.
Xia Siyu shook her head: “Even if you offer me thirty percent, my attitude remains the same.”
Perhaps she’s naive, but she has no interest in doing business or managing her own company. Just improving her acting skills is already challenging enough for her, she can’t be bothered with other matters.
After all, the money she earns is enough to live comfortably for the rest of her life.
Having said that, Qin Baizhou nodded, “I understand. I will have legal revise the contract as soon as possible and elevate your demands promptly.”
Xia Siyu nodded, “Thank you Qin bro.”
No matter what, Qin Baizhou is looking out for her best interest, and she would not be ungrateful.
“I’m your agent, it’s my job to serve you,” Qin Baizhou also smiled, took a quick glance at her, and added, “I’m also your friend, and I want the best for you.”
“Okay.” After they finished talking, Qin Baizhou quickly went downstairs.
He still had other matters to handle today. The hotel room had been booked in advance, in a location close to the stock exchange. Just as he reached the ground floor, he saw from afar a man wearing a mask sitting in a coffee corner of the lobby—it was Bo Yan.
Suddenly, Qin Baizhou felt like telling Bo Yan about Xia Siyu’s choice. He knew that Bo Yan was also considered a “discard” of the Bo Family, since his cousin’s family was in line to inherit, leaving him without any eligibility to inherit the Bo fortune.
An academic’s respect is one thing, but the money isn’t there, which is why he came to the entertainment industry.
However fast money comes in the entertainment circle, it can’t compare to generations of accumulation by the Bo Family. His relationship with Xia Siyu must also have included this aspect. When he finds out that she has pushed away the shares that were easily within her reach, what would he think?
Perhaps, without any interference on his part, Bo Yan and Xia Siyu will generate their own conflicts.
With that thought, he changed his course and went straight towards Bo Yan.
Bo Yan was sipping coffee when Qin Baizhou approached; he saw him, but pretended not to, calmly removing his mask to take a sip. It was late at night in the hotel lobby, with few guests around, so taking off his mask did not make him particularly nervous.
Qin Baizhou directly sat down in front of him without greeting. After all, their relationship wasn’t one that necessitated maintaining false pretenses in such a deserted corner.
Upon sitting, Qin Baizhou remained silent, then slid the two contracts in front of Bo Yan.
The top one was the share subscription agreement.
