Chapter 357 Chapter 356: Acting Cute Will Get You Places (1)
Beanie suddenly realized that this terrifying man with a majestic aura was actually the rumored supreme leader of Song Entertainment, Song Chen! That upper-class big shot from the capital who occasionally would appear in the news.
Beanie originally thought that the person who came to negotiate with her could only be an ordinary upper echelon of Song Entertainment… However, she didn’t expect it to be the big boss of the Song Group. Song Chen leaned back in his black office chair, his long fingers slightly crossed. He said concisely, “I’ve sent someone to verify that your original script, ‘Drunken Days’, was indeed plagiarized by the screenwriter Willow.”
Beanie hurriedly nodded. “Yes! He stole my script with the excuse of looking for inspiration!”
“I hope you can sign this contract.” Song Chen signaled with his eyes. Assistant Wang, the assistant beside him, placed the blue folder in front of Beanie.
Beanie stared at the thick cover of the contract, a helpless smile on her face.
See, she still had to sign the confidential contract.
See, the great boss of Song Entertainment had personally met her just to threaten her… She was like a fish on a chopping board. She would never be able to defeat this world where the strong preyed on the weak.
“President Song… I will not sign this contract.” Beanie’s eyes were red, tears welled up in her eyes. “I was too naive. I wanted to gain respect and understanding from your circle… Don’t worry, I will no longer be in the screenwriting industry. I have already booked a train ticket home.”
“You don’t have to send people to target me and threaten me.”
With that, Beanie stood up shakily. Life was like a ruthless knife, grinding away the sharp edges she used to have. Her dream was dead, and her works were dead.
“Miss Beanie, please wait a moment.” Assistant Wang hurriedly blocked her way and explained with a smile, “You’ve misunderstood us. You can take a look at this contract first.” With that, he stuffed the contract into Beanie’s hand.
Beanie subconsciously flipped to a page and was stunned.
This was…
An employment contract and a work adaptation agreement.
Assistant Wang said with a smile, “After verification, you are indeed the original creator of ‘Drunken Days’. We have already terminated the work contract with the screenwriter Willow and have asked for two million in remuneration for the script. We hope to sign a contract with you and will only start filming ‘Drunken Days’ with your consent. We will also pay you the corresponding scriptwriter remuneration.”
“However, your other work, ‘South Wind Intoxication’, is copyrighted by the Wang Corporation next door. We are unable to seek justice for you for that one.” “Also, President Song admires your scriptwriter talent very much. I hope that you can become a signed scriptwriter for Song Entertainment.”
Assistant Wang slowly explained everything.
The more Beanie listened, the more shocked she became. She stood there foolishly.
I… I’m not dreaming, am I?!
Song Entertainment actually helped me get justice!
“Of course, you can go back and think about it. Our company welcomes you to join us at any time,” Wang said sincerely.
Beanie: …
Things developed unexpectedly. Beanie didn’t come back to her senses for a long time. She could only pick up the contract and say dryly, “I… I’ll go back and think about it.”
Assistant Wang smiled and handed her a business card. “Here is my contact information. You can contact me at any time after you’ve thought about it. In addition, our company has apartments provided for talents. You can move in at any time.”
Beanie: “… okay.”
Beanie left in a daze. Not long ago, she was still in the darkest and most helpless moment of her life. Now, she had suddenly reached the peak of her life.
