Chapter 2376: Chapter 2185: Hurry Up and Pick Me Up! (Part 4)
"I thought drinking a few glasses wouldn’t be an issue, who knew the alcohol would be so strong!" Song Jiaren said.
"Silly girl, Xiaodong already told me, you were drinking red wine. It might taste the same as grape juice, but it’s still twenty to thirty percent alcohol. Red wine, fruit wine, they’re all called ’Losing Integrity’ wines. They seem like they don’t pack a punch, but their alcohol level is high. This guy you met is really malicious!" Song Xiaoru said to Song Jiaren.
"Oh..."
"Who did you meet yesterday?" Song Xiaodong asked Song Jiaren.
"His name is Wang Xianfu, he’s the producer of the Chinese version of ’Walkingman.’ I was planning to talk to him about whether we could get the Cuishengyuan Slimming Tea as an official sponsor for the show." Song Jiaren said.
"Oh...Walkingman! I know, it’s a Korean variety show, very funny. They’re making a mainland version now?" Li Sijie asked Song Jiaren.
"Yeah, that’s right. The person I met yesterday is the producer of the mainland version." Song Jiaren replied.
"Wow...the Korean version is so good, how did they choose such a disgusting person for the mainland version? Just by looking at his character, this show won’t be any good!" Li Sijie added.
"So you’re saying that you were almost tricked by this bastard just for the slimming tea factory’s sake yesterday?" Song Xiaodong asked Song Jiaren.
"Yes." Song Jiaren looked down at the floor and gently nodded.
"Alright, since that’s the case, I’ll find a way to deal with this jerk." Song Xiaodong said to Song Jiaren.
"Don’t get into trouble!" Song Xiaoru warned Song Xiaodong.
"Don’t worry."
"Call and arrange another meeting with Wang Xianfu." Song Xiaodong instructed Song Jiaren.
"Huh? For what?" Song Jiaren resisted instinctively.
"With me here, what are you afraid of? Of course, it’s to discuss the advertisement." Song Xiaodong reassured her.
"Well...alright."
Song Jiaren picked up the phone and went to the balcony to call Wang Xianfu.
"Hello?"
"Is this Miss Song? What’s up?" Wang Xianfu’s tone noticeably cooled.
"Mr. Wang, I’m really sorry about yesterday, I accidentally drank too much. As you see, we were supposed to discuss the main issue but I was already too drunk to continue, so I wanted to meet with you again tonight." Song Jiaren said to Wang Xianfu.
Wang Xianfu wasn’t too bothered by what happened last night, and was surprised Song Jiaren actively reached out again the next morning. Perhaps after a night of mentally battling it, she realized the sponsorship wasn’t something easily negotiated, and thus was prepared. Without overthinking, Wang Xianfu said to Song Jiaren: "Sure, you pick the location."
"Alright, see you tonight."
In the evening, Song Jiaren met with Wang Xianfu once more.
Song Jiaren arranged for the meeting to be in a large private room. While it wasn’t a small booth for two facing each other, it was still quite private.
Wang Xianfu, adept at these situations, surveyed the environment and then sat down with a smile.
"Mr. Wang, I’m truly sorry, I drank too much yesterday, and we didn’t get to discuss the main issue before I became incoherent. Should we drink less today?" Song Jiaren asked with a smile.
"Whatever pleases Miss Song." Wang Xianfu gestured gentlemanly to Song Jiaren.
"Mr. Wang, as I mentioned yesterday, Cuishengyuan Slimming Tea is a very refreshing drink, primarily focused on cooling and soothing. It complements your outdoor sports show perfectly. Besides, Cuishengyuan Slimming Tea is part of the Su Family’s enterprise, financially stable with a significant company influence. There’s a chance for sponsorship and deep endorsement in the future, and Mr. Wang, you definitely won’t be left out." Song Jiaren said to Wang Xianfu.
Chapter 2188 Personal Matter
"It’s like this, Miss Song, as I told you yesterday, I’m just a producer of this program. Personally, the sponsorship doesn’t earn me much, so the benefits you’re offering aren’t really tangible for me. Therefore, I hope Miss Song can offer something more substantial, where I personally can gain direct benefit." Wang Xianfu’s hint couldn’t be clearer.
"So you’re saying you want a kickback, Mr. Wang." Song Jiaren asked Wang Xianfu with a smile.
Wang Xianfu just smiled without speaking.
"If that’s indeed what you mean, Su Family did give me some authority, and I can offer you a more favorable price and compensate you a bit on the side." Song Jiaren said to Wang Xianfu.
Meaning, the Su Family would pay more, part going to the TV station, another part directly into Wang Xianfu’s pocket.
This is quite normal, though Song Jiaren had no intention of actually doing this, she was just deliberately teasing Wang Xianfu.
"Hmm..." Wang Xianfu nodded in satisfaction.
"However, there’s still something missing." Wang Xianfu hinted at Song Jiaren.
"Where is Mr. Wang dissatisfied?" Song Jiaren asked Wang Xianfu.
"As the saying goes, once one’s belly is filled, desires arise. Now the money issue has been resolved by Miss Song, if Miss Song could also help with my personal matter, that would make this perfect." Wang Xianfu said, squinting at Song Jiaren.
Wang Xianfu isn’t a fool; he doesn’t go around saying such things at the dinner table to every girl he meets.
