Chapter 29 Deliberate layout
…
Guo Shouyun, who has come to Rowling's house eight or nine times in the past two weeks, is already familiar with this place.
In the living room, except for Rowling's six-year-old daughter, Jessica, Neil Murray and Rowling were all present, the only one absent was Christopher Ritter.
"Rowling, why didn't you see Christopher?" Guo Shouyun asked after putting down the gift.
"He's reading the book "National Treasure" you just wrote in the study upstairs! This is...?" Rowling's eyes turned to the beautiful girl following Guo Shouyun.
"I'll introduce to you. This is my girlfriend Molly Bevin. ... Molly, this is Rowling, Rowling's boyfriend Neil!" While speaking, Guo Shouyun quietly wrapped his left arm around him Molly Bevan's soft and slender waist.
Although it was the first time to have such a close contact with a boy, the joy of seeing the idol dilutes the tension and entanglement in Molly Bevan's heart.
"Ms. Rowling is a pleasure to meet you, I am a big fan of you!"
This is the first time Guo Shouyun has seen such excitement and excitement on Molly Bevin's face. At this moment, she is more like a 20-year-old girl, with the liveliness and cuteness that a girl of this age should have.
"Nice to meet you too. Molly, you're so pretty, Bruce is lucky!"
"Rowling, Molly is not only beautiful, she is also a top student in the oil painting department of the Royal Academy of Art, and has now signed a contract with the famous Gagosian Gallery. In addition, she also hopes to paint a portrait of you!" Guo Shouyun aside road.
Although Rowling writes for a living, she also knows the Royal Academy of Arts and understands what signing with Gagosian Gallery means to the painter.
"Bevin, seeing you, I finally understand that beauty and wisdom can coexist!" Rowling took Molly Bevin's hand and said with a little surprise.
"You flatter me!"
Molly Bevan said quickly.
"You two talk. I'll go up and see Christopher with Neil."
Neil Murray did not object to Guo Shouyun's proposal. After nodding with a smile, he followed Guo Shouyun upstairs.
"I didn't expect you, Bruce, to pick the most beautiful roses in Essect after only half a month!"
As soon as he walked up to the second floor, Neil Murray said suddenly.
"Neil, do you know Molly?"
"Bruce, Exeter is not big!" Neil Murray nodded with a smile, "However, Rudy Bevan is not a good talker. You want to marry the 'pearl' who holds him in the palm of your hand. Going home, it takes a lot of thought!"
"I know."
Guo Shouyun nodded with a distressed look on his face. From the way Rudy Bevin treated himself when he was in the bar that night, he also understood that it was not easy for this relationship to succeed.
But aside from Molly Bevin. From Neil Murray's apparently much better attitude towards himself now, Guo Shouyun knew that his method had worked, and he successfully dispelled the guard in the other party's heart.
"Neil, there's something I want to talk to you about!"
After coming to the corridor on the second floor, Guo Shouyun stopped and said.
"What's up?"
"Christopher and I acquired a publishing company in the United States. The value of this publishing company is around 10 million pounds. I own 70% of the shares and Christopher owns 30%. Now we want to convince Rowling to join." After a pause, Guo Shouyun stared at the seemingly loyal man in front of him, "However, I don't think it's just Rowling. As her boyfriend and future husband, I think you should also be invited to join the company!"
"I'm just a university professor, not as rich as you guys!" After hearing this, Neil Murray shook his head slightly after a flash of light flashed in his eyes.
"You don't need to pay. In addition to Rowling's share, I can privately transfer 5% of the shares to you. After the company is profitable, it can be deducted from your dividends!" Guo Shouyun smiled lightly, " Although you don't know much about my writing level, Rowling's "Harry Potter" is now popular all over the world. I believe that as long as she can become a shareholder, the follow-up part of "Harry Potter" must be published by this publisher The company will issue it. It is certain that the company will make money. 5% of the shares means that you can get at least £200,000 in dividends every year! What does £200,000 mean, I think you know better than me.”
Looking at the smiling young man in front of him, Neil Murray felt a strong confidence in him. Moreover, he felt that he was not talking to a young man less than twenty years old, but even more that he was facing a top business elite with amazing eloquence.
"The figure of 200,000 pounds is really hard to refuse. But I think, you pay such a big price, you must not ask for nothing!" Although Neil Murray only teaches anesthesiology, he has no understanding of financial knowledge. many. But he still understands the most basic concept of return on investment.
"Of course I have my own requirements. However, this requirement will not make you embarrassed!" After a pause, Guo Shouyun didn't give in to Neil Murray's eagerness to listen, "I don't ask for anything else, only If I need something in the future, when I want to ask for Rowling's consent, you can help me with a few good words on the side! And don't worry. What I want to ask for Rowling's consent will definitely not do her any harm. "
"It's that simple?"
"It's that simple!" Guo Shouyun nodded solemnly.
After thinking for a moment, Neil Murray nodded.
"If everything is as you said, I promise to help you!"
"Happy cooperation!"
Guo Shouyun smiled and stretched out his right hand towards him.
Neil Murray also stretched out his right hand without refusing.
Both got what they wanted. An income of at least £200,000 a year can greatly improve Neil Murray's financial situation. Moreover, he does not need to pay any price in the middle.
In Guo Shouyun's view, paying 5% of the shares and paying hundreds of thousands of pounds in dividends every year, and getting someone who can have a significant influence on Rowling, he did not suffer, but made a lot of money.
"Now I've got Neil Murray and Christopher Ritter. And I've managed to win Rowling's favor myself, all three moves. Just wait a few more months and that's the real reward. Time!" Guo Shouyun thought excitedly.
…
Lunch at noon was naturally eaten at Rowling's house. It could be seen that she and Molly Bevan were very close, and even during the banquet, the two kept chatting.
After lunch, it was time for afternoon tea. After Guo Shouyun and Christopher looked at each other, the latter said, "Rowling, there is something I want to discuss with you?"
"What's up?"
Rowling, who was holding her daughter and talking to Molly Bevan, looked up.
"I'm going to shut down Ritter Publishing Economics!"
"Turn it off? Why?" Rowling asked in surprise.
"I have a publishing company in America with Bruce!"
"Publishing Company?"
Christopher nodded. At the same time, Guo Shouyun on the side also spoke.
"Rowling, I discussed it with Christopher and would like to invite you to join us!"
"Invite me to join? But I don't know anything about business except writing!" Rowling shook her head.
"You don't need to know too much. In fact, I don't know too much about the publishing industry. But Christopher is an expert in this field. The specific operation of the publishing company can be handed over to him. I and you are mainly responsible for writing and creating profitable works for the company. That's it!" Guo Shouyun urged vigorously.
"If I join, I am both a writer and a shareholder, how will the profits be calculated?" Rowling asked after thinking about it.
"You and Bruce, as writers, can get your own 15% tax share. In addition, as shareholders, the part of the publishing company's income will be distributed according to our respective shareholding ratios. Also, if you have enough Trust me, I can still negotiate with each other as your agent when it comes to the licensing negotiations for the copyrights surrounding your two works. Besides, I don't charge any commissions!" Christopher said.
"Rowling, this is a good thing. In the future, you can get double income!"
Neil Murray said aside.
For his 5% stake, and the resulting gains, he certainly would not remain indifferent. UU reading www.uukanshu.com
Seeing that the people closest to her agree with her, the balance in Rowling's heart is gradually tilting.
"If I join, how much money do I need to put in. How many shares in the company can I get?"
"1.5 million pounds, 15% of the shares! Bruce and I are 25% and 60% respectively!" Seeing Rowling's temptation, Christopher was shocked and said quickly.
"I think Neil should also join in. Also, Rowling. Although Neil doesn't care much. But I think this opportunity that will allow him to achieve financial freedom should not be missed. Also, there is a common cause for you in the future. Relationship and family stability are beneficial." Guo Shouyun said with a smile.
Glancing at him, then at Neil Murray with a certain longing in his eyes. Rowling, who originally wanted to shirk and think about it before replying, finally nodded after hesitating for a moment.
"Okay, I'll join!"
Hearing this, Guo Shouyun and Christopher looked at each other, and they both saw the joy in each other's eyes.
"...But, aren't you and Molly boyfriend and girlfriend? Why didn't you bring her in too?"
Facing Rowling's question, Guo Shouyun's face stiffened. If he and Molly Bevin were really boyfriend and girlfriend, he certainly wouldn't mind pulling her in to share the benefits. But now the two of them haven't written a word. If Guo Shouyun really gave out hundreds of thousands of shares to the other party, it would not be desperate for love, it would be really stupid!
But fortunately, Molly Bevan spoke in time to save him.
"No! I'm really not interested in doing business!"
Hearing this, Rowling didn't insist too much just by saying that. Christopher also changed the topic in time to avoid more embarrassment for Guo Shouyun.
After that everything went smoothly.
