Chapter 20 This is just the price of the work itself
"haven't seen you for a long time."

After Chen Yuanguang left the airport, Lin Jia was waiting for him in the underground parking lot of the airport, with a Chevrolet next to him.

Before Chen Yuanguang could say anything, Lin Jia suddenly walked up to him and gave him a big hug.

Chen Yuanguang patted her on the back and said, "It's okay, it's okay. I'm here to accompany you, aren't I?"

"Ah."

After putting the luggage in the trunk, Chen Yuanguang comforted her, "What your father does won't have any impact, unless he is willing to divorce and divide the property equally.

In this case, he and your mother will each take half, and you can take all from your mother, and then take a portion from your father. He has built such a big business, he will definitely not do such a thing. "

Lin Jia said as he drove: "This is not the same thing. The main thing is that he brought back his illegitimate child and said he wanted to meet me. This matter itself has the flavor of temptation.

He said he wanted to get to know my sister, but the question is, is he worthy of her?

Maybe he is just paving the way for his illegitimate son to see if he can return to the group to work. The old man has not changed his bad habits. I don’t mind sharing the money with his illegitimate son. It’s his business how much of his own money he wants to get.

I will never agree to help my illegitimate son return to the group to work. Not to mention that I won't agree, none of my uncles will agree. "Lin Jia said indignantly.

Chen Yuanguang asked: "Didn't you say that your brother is only in junior high school?"

Lin Jia said: "That's not my brother, he's just a stranger. There's no problem for him to go to junior high school. The old man is fifty years old. When he's almost sixty, the illegitimate child will be graduating from college.

Join the group, help him pave the way for a few years, and then give him a branch to manage. Don’t I understand what the old man is planning?"

Lin Jia sighed: "It is precisely because of this reason that I don't want to go back during the Christmas holiday this time, and I would like to trouble you to come here in advance.

The old man made a surprise attack, and I really don’t want to go back and see his face.”

Chen Yuanguang felt a headache when he heard about this kind of thing. His father was in a similar situation, except that the good thing was that his father didn't have an illegitimate child and didn't cause any murder.

However, considering that his family and Lin Jia's family are not of the same size, his family's real estate and movable properties add up to only about 50 million, and the size of Lin Jia's family is multiplied by one thousand. Chen Yuanguang thought that his father probably did not have the capital to disobey the Enfeoffment Order.

He changed the subject and said, "Driving a Chevrolet is not your style. You always drove a BMW X5 at Jiangda University. Why did you downshift here?

Isn't it said that luxury cars in the United States are much cheaper than in China because there is no value-added tax? "

Lin Jia said: "Who told you that this is the only car I have here?
This is because you have a lot of luggage, so I bought this Chevrolet specifically to pick you up. I also have a Porsche 911."

Chen Yuanguang was speechless: "You are so rich and inhumane, do you still need a pendant? I want to be the pendant on your leg."

Lin Jia said, “No problem, you can hold me as you like.

My plan for the next few days is that we can celebrate Christmas in New York first, and then go to Boston after Christmas to celebrate the New Year.

When I go to Boston, I'll help you rent a house, buy a used car, and then treat Professor Bavendi to dinner.

In America, cars are extremely important and it is very inconvenient without one.

Your life experience will be greatly improved after you have a car. To celebrate your publication of Nature, do you want me to buy you one? Didn’t you just say you wanted to cling to my thighs? "

Chen Yuanguang shook his head repeatedly. He didn't want to marry into the wife's family and didn't want to take advantage of the other party.
"It's too expensive. There's no need. I can afford it myself. The copyright income from Tencent just came in. I transferred 50,000 US dollars this time. It's enough to buy a used car."

Lin Jia explained: "If you don't want to take advantage, then I will just drive it for you. You can buy a second-hand car and drive it for a few years and then sell it. It won't cost much. Besides, my father's money will be wasted if it is not spent."

When Chen Yuanguang heard the latter sentence, he inexplicably thought of Shi Huilan. He felt that the filial piety of both parties was similar.

"In that case, then there's no need for that," Chen Yuanguang said. "I'm only planning to buy a Golf GTI for my daily commute and to visit you in New York."

Lin Jia did not insist: "Okay, since you insist, forget it.

So Yuanguang, you are still too proud. Sometimes you can't be proud if you want to succeed. But you make a living with your brain, so being proud is not a bad thing.

If you are a writer and still have no shame, you are simply invincible.”

Chen Yuanguang has become accustomed to Lin Jia's eccentricity. To outsiders, she seems extremely cool, but in fact, she is both eccentric and funny.

Seeing that Chen Yuanguang didn't say anything, Lin Jia continued, "Show me your contract with Tencent, as well as the filming progress and publicity of Once Upon a Time in Kuala Lumpur.

I always feel that the value of the IP of "Once Upon a Time in Kuala Lumpur" is far greater than the 500,000 they gave you, and we have to find a way to squeeze more money out of it."

Lin Jia studied finance and has a strong interest and keen sense of smell for business operations.

After putting the luggage in Lin Jia's three-bedroom home near Columbia University, they were waiting for their meals to be served at a Chinese restaurant near their home while Lin Jia was looking at the contract on his tablet computer.

"How is it? Is there any problem with the contract?" Chen Yuanguang asked, "I asked the lawyer of my mother's company to look over it for me."

Lin Jia said: “There is no problem, it’s just that the revenue from “Once Upon a Time in Kuala Lumpur” has nothing to do with you.

But this is normal. After all, you are a newcomer, and it is very good for a newcomer to get 500,000 for the film and television adaptation rights.

But you are not an ordinary newcomer, you are a young scientist with great potential, a talented young man with countless stories to tell.

Do you know what this means? It means that you can become part of the promotion of the film and television.

Yuanguang, I noticed that your publication in Nature and your identity as the author of 2477, "Kuala Lumpur Past", were not linked together by the media.

Even the report of Jiangda University did not link you together. This incident itself is full of propaganda elements, and there are stories that can be dug up under the surface.

Undergraduate student, Nobel Prize winner, science fiction writer, Nature, film and television adaptations, any one of these points is enough to meet the media's daily KPI requirements for forwarding, commenting and browsing.

I don't believe that no one knew about this. Why wasn't it reported together? I think the Tencent people suppressed it. They wanted to expose it when the movie was released to increase the box office.

In addition, you have been admitted to MIT, and Chinese people have a tendency to admire famous schools. Reading is so tiring, so of course people will want to watch the movie to get to know you and understand the plot that a genius like you can come up with.

So the 500,000 that Tencent gave you is only the value of the past in Kuala Lumpur. The publicity value you have is another thing!"

Lin Jia was very excited. Chen Yuanguang was not surprised at all that Lin Jia could discover these things. What did they do? Lin Jia's favorite thing was to calculate how much money others could make.

When she goes out to eat, she has to calculate the table turnover rate, how long it will take for this business model to pay back, and where the risks are in the case of chain promotion.

When going to a concert, she has to calculate the number of audience members, the proportion of publicity, stage design, performance team, band, sales channels, and how much the singer can get.
