Dressed in formal clothes, Yu Dong was standing in front of the City TV Station doors while she spoke to Xiang Xiaoyue over the phone: "I've arrived, calm down."
"Come on Dong Dong, don't be so nervous, I believe in you!" Xiaoyue shouted through the phone.
"Yes, yes, I got it!" Yu Dong was exasperated as she ended the call.
What nervous? In her previous life this sister signed numerous contracts worth millions, contracts that would truly frighten you. How can this small film dubbing contract make me nervous.
Early this morning, Yu Dong was awakened by an agitated Xiaoyue. It turns out she had worked tirelessly for the past few weeks trying to get the chance to dub the Chinese version of some Hollywood movie.
International directors are usually very busy, but Xiaoyue somehow managed to squeeze an appointment with the other party at 11:00 this morning at a TV station where they were doing some publicity shows.
Unfortunately, Xiaoyue was hospitalized recently and now couldn't make it to the appointment. So she made an urgent call to Yu Dong begging her to go to the appointment.
"Are Ms. Yu from Xiaoyue Studios?" A middle-aged man with a Cantonese accent asked.
"Yes, hello!" Yu Dong had been waiting at the lobby and at this remark, stood up and politely shook the man's hand, "Are you JACK?"
"Yes, I'm sorry I kept you waiting," The director Mr. Steven's assistant, Mr. JACK, said, "Mr. Steven just finished his interview and is he's now at the station cafe having coffee. You can go ahead and talk to him about your proposal now."
Yu Dong nodded, picking up her proposal and followed JACK.
Soon they arrived at the cafe on the 5th floor of the TV Station and was introduced to Mr. Steven.
(T/N I'm making any English conversation in italics from now on)
"Hello Mr. Steven, I'm Yu Dong from XIAOYUE Studio, please just call me FISH." Yu Dong said in fluent English.
"Nice to meet you!" Director Steven stood up and shook hands with Yu Dong.
"Thank you for taking time off your busy schedule to talk to us, please let me show you the sincerity of our company....Your movie's themes expressed.....If you let our company dub your movie, I believe our cooperation will produce wonderful results." Yu Dong took out the prepared proposal and placed it on the table.
"You've seen my movies!" Director Steven was surprised.
"Yeah, I love this movie!" Yu Dong smiled.
"You know this movie well! You're quite knowledgeable about my intentions in this movie, Miss Fish!" What Yu Dong had just elaborated seemed to be exactly what Mr. Steven wanted to express in the film.
"If you give this movie to me, I'll definitely retain your ideals." Yu Dong had seen this movie several times in her past life as she really liked the plot. Yu Dong also read all the fan comments and theories, including Mr. Steven's own exposition of the film.
"I'd be happy to collaborate with your company!" Mr. Steven smiled and held out his hand.
"Thank you, we'll work very hard to make it perfect!" It seems that she had successfully negotiated.
After the contract was signed, JACK came up to them, reminding Mr.Steven that it was time to record the show.
"I like you, Miss Fish," Mr. Steven stood up and said goodbye Yu Dong, " Your name's very cute, and you're quite knowledgeable with films."
