Devoted Love, Mr. Hayes’ Darling Wife

Micaela contacted Singularity Video’s project manager to negotiate a round of Series B funding.

The second round doubled the company’s valuation.

Singularity Video invested 100 million, making it Walking Media’s largest venture capitalist at this point.

But Micaela didn’t stop there; she stayed up all night making a list of the most important IP books on the market that she had asked about and that no team had developed yet.

The next morning, Micaela handed the list of books to the project manager working on rights development, saying, “You have to buy all the top-current IPs marked in red on this list, and the cost may be a little higher than the market price, as long as it is not too high. For urban fiction IPs, the cost should be lower, and for large metaphysical fiction and old-suit IPs, if there are rivals competing with us, the limit should be relaxed appropriately, but if the rivals’ prices are too high, we should give up and look for good IPs with similar attractiveness to buy.”

The copyright development manager scanned the list of book forms and said, “Boss, news came in this morning that the intellectual property of Teenage Journey has been bought by a rights company owned by the Amengual Group. ”

Micaela was slightly stunned, not expecting the Amengual Group to move so quickly, and frowned in thought, “Then let’s hurry up and get in touch with the other content rights holders immediately. I’m going to contact President Bardales at the Book Reading Group. ”

“OK.”

Micaela was on her way to her office when she called President Bardales of the Book Reading Group. When she got through, Micaela politely said, “President Bardales, this is Jimena from Walking Pictures Media. IP, remember?”

President Bardales on the other end of the phone coughed slightly, hiding his words, and said, “I’m sorry, but our popular book IP was bought by the Amengual Group in an advance package, General Jimena, you’re one step ahead.”

Micaela gritted her teeth, but with a warm face, and said, “It’s okay President Bardales, a sale is not a sale, we’ll work together again next time.”

Doodle doo …

The person on the other end simply hung up the phone.

Micaela hung up the phone and pinched her temples, with a slight headache.

If she hadn’t brought in all the people from the company, she would have started to wonder if the Amengual Group had planted a spy.

But come to think of it, Nico is so astute and has such a promising vision, she should have anticipated the size of her current company and should have started with a novel, lower-cost IP incubation, which in turn would lead to a profitable and explosive project.

That’s why he went ahead by buying those popular content rights IPs.

Leaving her with no way out, is that it?

Micaela was puzzled for a moment, stood up and walked quickly to the copyright development team, saying, “No need to contact the content copyright holders of these popular books, go contact the TV stations and write down the outsourcing of variety production, contact as many as you can, I will go talk to the owner of Sharp Vision Video about the program rights of “The Practice” later in the evening.”

Aida, the assistant, looked at the time and said, “Boss, it’s already six o’clock, the lunchtime you agreed with the owner of ReVision Video is seven thirty, it’s time to get going.”

Micaela nodded and said, “I’ll be right there.”

Micaela tucked the company stamp on her desk into her tote bag. Tonight, she was going to take the rights to produce the apprentice variety show on location anyway.

It turns out that Micaela has a few friendships with the owner of ReVision, who was the spokesperson for ReVision when she was an actress, so President Victoria of ReVision did Micaela a few favors. The owner of the company, President Victoria, did Micaela a few favors.

President Victoria, a man Micaela has crossed paths with several times, is a man who likes to socialize at the table and knows how to drink.

Micaela took a pill bottle out of the drawer and popped two antidote pills into her mouth.

Micaela is not a one-time drinker, but she is not a one-time drinker either, and President Victoria is a northerner who is not afraid to drink without a hangover pill.

Micaela made her way to the private room at the Banyan Tree Hotel.

She arrived half an hour early and waited for the other party for a full hour before the owner of Sharp Vision quietly arrived in the private room.

Micaela pulled herself together and got up to greet her, smiling and joking, “President Victoria might be a good wait, I thought President Victoria couldn’t be here today, thinking I had brought a lone pet seal with me today.”

President Victoria pointed to Micaela and said half jokingly and half seriously, “Micaela, it’s been so long since we’ve seen each other, how come you’ve gotten so old, you bring the official company seal, I don’t bring the contract. I see we have been friends for a long time, so I just came for dinner to catch up, let’s not talk business tonight ….”

Micaela was also cheeky and, seeing the signs, said, “Okay, President Victoria said no business.”

Micaela said to the waiter in the booth, “Can you pour us five bottles of white, President Victoria love Moutai or Wuliangye?”

President Victoria smiled mischievously and said, “Five bottles is too little, isn’t it? Ten bottles, five bottles of Wuliangye, five bottles of Maotai, let’s mix and match.”

Ten bottles of white … How alcoholic.

Micaela gritted her back teeth, a sharp aura shone under her eyes, she smiled slightly and said to the waiter, “Please pour ten bottles of white, five bottles of Maotai and five bottles of Wuliangye, all of the highest grade!”

President Victoria then looked pleased and asked, “You were doing so well as an actor, why have you suddenly changed your career to become a debtor?”

“As an actor, I have always been in the hands of a powerful capital as President Victoria, I prefer to be a debtor to locate good talents, but I also want to do more content production, and I have thought a lot about getting behind the cameras. But the company’s temple is small, but a lot of people are waiting for me to feed them, so I will need President Victoria to take more care of me in the future. ”

President Victoria waved his hand in disbelief, “I heard that Miss Micaela’s company just entered into a partnership with Singularity Video, which is a strong rival of our RuiShi, so this, Miss Micaela still says that the company temple is small? With Singularity Video as a backup, I’m afraid Miss Micaela’s temple can’t be washed away even by the Dragon King’s great water.”

Micaela’s eyes are slightly lowered and smiling, this President Victoria is a small minded person.

When she looked up, Micaela said cheerfully, “We are all businessmen, whoever is willing to inject capital is my father, and if President Victoria is willing to close a series C round of financing for our small ruined temple, then President Victoria is also my father.”

It’s a business test of calm and equanimity between chatter and laughter, without losing the manly bravado.

President Victoria sighed and said, “Micaela, I am quite grateful to you, as an actor you have direction and self-knowledge, businessmen also let go, is this business …”

This President Victoria, he was obviously trying to play Tai Chi with her, Micaela did not eat it, “President Victoria, we are not talking business tonight, you said so, just drink!”

Soon, the waiter brought ten bottles of white, five bottles of Wuliangye and five bottles of Maotai, all of the strongest grades.

If you mix your drinks, you’re afraid you’ll end up in the hospital.

Micaela poured wine, poured ten glasses of white Maotai directly, said, “President Victoria, I am sincere in wanting to get the rights to produce the apprentice show, I also spent a lot of money to hire the best editors and choreographers in the industry, I don’t know how sincere other companies are, my sincerity, it’s all in the wine tonight. ”

Micaela didn’t say much, and as the words tumbled out, she picked up the glass of white wine, bowed her head and drank it.

One glass after another.

Ten glasses of wine, to toast first, to give full homage.

President Victoria was also embarrassed by this and laughed awkwardly, taking a glass of wine and saying, “Okay, drink up, Micaela, you’re good, I really haven’t seen you so sincere in a long time.”

Five bottles of white, which quickly reached the bottom, mostly drunk by Micaela.

Halfway across the table, Micaela’s hand under the table, clenched tightly, holding back the churning of her stomach, calmly said, “President Victoria, excuse me, I’m going to the bathroom, come back and continue.”

With that, Micaela quickly left the booth and ran to the bathroom.

“Vomit…”

Micaela squatted down next to the toilet and vomited, her stomach emptying and finally only slightly more comfortable with the yellow water.

She sat on the toilet and rested for a while before getting over it.

Micaela leaned against the wall and walked with frail steps to the sink, where she washed herself and splashed cold water on her face several times to clear her head.

She looked at herself drunkenly in the mirror, gritted her teeth and turned around to leave the bathroom.

Just as I reached the bathroom door, my wrists were grabbed by a large, strong hand and my floating body was pinned against the wall.

Micaela was struck.

She looked up and met Nico’s cold, deep, dark eyes.

Micaela blinked, unable to distinguish between reality and illusion because she was a little drunk, and asked with a frown, “What are you doing, trying to get in the way of my fortune? Let go of me.”

“Do you want to drink yourself to death if you keep drinking like that?” Nico gritted her teeth and cursed, her eyes full of anger, I couldn’t see her trashing her body like that, it was a total disrespect to herself in spelling.

Micaela pressed her lips together in a slight smile, “What do you care, what are you to me Nico, gimme, get out of my way.”

“Even if you die drinking, RTV is not going to book you tonight! Because the Amengual Group has already signed the rights to produce the apprentice program with ReVision!”

Micaela froze and laughed in a trance, “So you, along with President Victoria of ReVision, are working together to rip me off?”

Nico got a lump in his throat, and seeing how drunk she was, he reached out and took her cold hand between his, his voice softened a little, his gaze straightened as he looked at Micaela and said, “If you beg others, you might as well beg me, drink with me and maybe there’s a chance of survival.”

Micaela broke her grip, “I’m not going to beg anyone but you! Nico, you’ve won this round and I’m resigned to it, but President Victoria is my partner in fate and it’s none of your business if I drink myself to death!”

Micaela walked past him and straight into the booth.

Nico’s patience has been challenged to the limit and, irritated, he strangles Micaela’s wrist and pulls her back, lifting Micaela onto his shoulders.

Packed and carried.

Micaela vomited all over Nico.

Nico drove straight back to Villa Moon Lake Road.

When he got home, he set Micaela down on the couch, promptly took off his dirty clothes and threw them in the laundry basket, and carried Micaela up to the bedroom with a naked upper body.

Micaela reeked of alcohol, was passed out and chaotic.

Nico looked at the woman who was drinking like an alcoholic and was a little helpless and couldn’t lose it.

Finally, he let go of her stomach of irritation and stature for the night and walked up to her and asked in a warm voice, “Do you want to take a bath?”

She was drunk and couldn’t hear.

Nico takes it by default.

With the slender woman in his arms, he walked into the bathroom.

Micaela threw up twice more in the bathroom and looked for the official stamp, “Contract, signed!”.

“…”

Even if Nico wanted to do something about it, he didn’t have the courage to do so, he just took the “official seal” from her hand perfunctorily and affectionately, “Okay, sign it and take a shower.”

Nico took the bar of soap and put it in place.

After more than an hour of washing, the tub overflowed and filled with wet water.

Micaela lay on the edge of the tub, asleep.

Nico couldn’t do anything about it, so he laughed and picked her up, wrapped her in a towel and went to the bedroom.

Sharing the bed.

It was like going back two years.

Nico leans to the side, looks at the drunk woman in his arms, leans in, lowers his head and drops a kiss on her forehead.

Then, uncontrollably, those lingering kisses passed over her forehead, the tip of her nose and finally her lips ….

At the kiss, her heart fluttered and churned a thousand waves that could not be stifled for long.

He embraced her gently, lowered his head and kissed her hair again, finally murmuring softly, “Micaela, fortunately … you are still alive.”Belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

Even sharp disputes, incompatible quarrels are covered with honey, so sweet that it drowns.
