Chapter 689 - Chapter 681 I've Already Made a Profit

Although Nanaya and Lucas did not determine the final transaction price in the end, they had already discussed most of the other contents.

Unless a third party intervenes strongly, or Lucas deliberately introduces a second buyer to raise the price.

Otherwise, the final transaction price should be between US$3.5 billion and US$5 billion previously quoted by both parties.

It doesn't matter to Nanaya how much it is.

The next thing will be left to the professional negotiators of Washimine Entertainment.

After finishing the formal topic of conversation, Lucas felt a lot more relaxed.

He even suggested to Nanaya that they go out for another social gathering: "I know there's a really good bar nearby. Nanaya, shall we go there for another drink?"

When he said this, Lucas had an expression on his face that every man could understand.

It seems that George Lucas, who is already in his 60s, is still young at heart and is still a man who knows how to have fun.

If it was at the age of 20, Nanaya would definitely be more than happy to accompany Lucas to the next game.

Whether it was to deepen communication with top people in the circle like Lucas, or Nanaya out of a man's inner desire, he would not refuse.

But now Nanaya really doesn't want to continue.

Not to mention that I have a little burden with me, it is really not suitable for me to go to that kind of place.

Another thing is that Nanaya had played enough in Ginza with Shiki Matsuno and the teacher a long time ago.

Nanaya no longer finds this kind of thing new.

Besides, Nanaya didn't think the women in the bar were prettier than Ryan or Shion.

So Nanaya immediately said forget it, he wanted to go home.

"Nanaya, how come a young man like you can't match the energy of an old man like me?"

Lucas was quite enthusiastic and continued his invitation

"You're welcome. Come on. It's my treat today."

Kiryu Nanaya thought for a moment, and the man suddenly hugged Lily beside him.

"My time is valuable, too, George."

"?!"

A hint of ecstasy flashed across Lily's face, and her face immediately flushed.

Then she acted sweetly and snuggled into the man's chest.

Although she knew it was all a fake act to get out of a social engagement, Lily acted as if it were real.

"Haha, I see."

Lucas looked as if he had suddenly realized something.

But he didn't show much surprise.

After all, things between men and women in the entertainment industry can only get messier, not messier.

Not to mention his sister-in-law, Lucas has even seen someone having an affair with his wife's granddaughter.

So even to outsiders, the relationship between Nanaya and Lily is very explosive.

But in Lucas's eyes, it was just that simple, not as exciting as the story of the outlaw Zhang San.

"Then I won't bother you any more, but I'll see you off!"

Lucas' smile made Lily feel a little embarrassed, and she buried her head deeper.

"No need, I've asked the maid to drive the car over."

Nanaya shook his head and pointed to the intersection.

There was a black business car approaching slowly.

"Okay, then you have a safe trip."

Lucas was not pretentious, but he didn't leave either. It seemed that he planned to wait until Nanaya got on the car before leaving.

While waiting for the bus, Spielberg suddenly said to Nanaya, "Nanaya, Gwyneth is planning to transition to commercial films. If you have any good projects, please recommend them."

Nanaya did not answer immediately.

He first took a closer look at Gwyneth Paltrow, who was smiling at him.

"I still recognize Ms. Paltrow's acting skills. If there is a chance, I will invite her to audition."

"Then I will look forward to hearing from you."

Gwyneth Paltrow was thrilled.

"whispering sound."

Lily had an unhappy expression on her face.

Nanaya patted her head gently to comfort her.

Just at this time, Sera had driven the car to the side of the road, and Nanaya took this opportunity to say goodbye to Lucas and others.

"Thanks for the evening, George. Good-bye."

After saying that, Nanaya took Lily into the car.

The engine of a black commercial vehicle started to roar and it quickly drove out of sight.

"Well, that man was just being perfunctory."

Gwyneth Paltrow let out a groan after seven nights away.

Obviously she could see that Nanaya's answer was just a polite one.

Spielberg pinched his brows and said to his goddaughter earnestly, "Gwyneth, no matter if he invites you out in the future or not, you can't..."

"I know the right thing to do, Godfather."

Gwyneth Paltrow interrupted.

Although she is spoiled, she is not a fool.

Nanaya Kiryu's current status and power in the circle are no less than that of his godfather.

It would be of no benefit to her to provoke the dislike of such a big shot.

"But, Uncle Lucas," Gwyneth Paltrow turned to another elder, "are you really going to sell Lucas Film?"

A hint of loneliness flashed across Lucas' eyes, and then he nodded slowly.

"Yes, I'm old now, and I can't help the company for much longer. Instead of going through all this trouble, I'd rather get a decent retirement pay and enjoy my old age."

George Lucas hasn't had a good time lately.

Like Spielberg, both men had fallen into a state of creative block.

Although the Star Wars prequel trilogy was a commercial success, fans' dissatisfaction with Lucas was growing day by day.

Because of the setting connection problems and the book-breaking settings in various Star Wars extended comics.

Many fans even shouted out things like "Lucas is just a movie maker, he knows nothing about Star Wars!"

Coupled with the less than successful ending of last year's "Indiana Jones 4".

Lucas was exhausted by the series of bad luck.

Perhaps these things were not the main reasons for Lucas' retirement, but they also more or less contributed to this result.

"Our time has passed, and the younger generation is to be feared."

Spielberg sighed, bringing the dinner to an end.

Then Old Spiel took his goddaughter and Lucas parted ways and went home.

The seven nights as guests were over, so the two elderly people naturally chose to go home and go to bed early.

··

In a black business car.

After getting in the car, Lily breathed a sigh of relief and said to Nanaya beside her: "Brother-in-law, can I lean on him for a while?"

After saying that, Lily fell down and leaned on Nanaya's thighs before Nanaya agreed.

She muttered to herself, "It's worthy of being my brother-in-law's knees. They're so comfortable. They're the best knees Lily has ever laid on."

"Have you ever slept with someone else?"

"Yeah, Dad's."

Lily seemed to have thought of some unpleasant memories, and her face turned terrible: "It was really hard, and it almost left a scar on my face."

"You are exaggerating..."

However, thinking back to Mr. Wettin's muscular body, Nanaya felt a little uneasy.

What if that person knew that he had had a relationship with his beloved eldest daughter, and was also having an affair with his beloved second daughter...

[Will he not squeeze me into a ball and use it as a cannonball at the Queen's birthday celebration? ]

Nanaya secretly swallowed his saliva. He felt that it would be better not to go to England if he could.

Lily gently adjusted her sitting position to make the knee pillow more comfortable.

Nanaya leaned back in the back seat and closed his eyes to rest. The negotiation with Lucas just now made him a little tired.

"Hey, brother-in-law."

Lily called out softly.

"Ask whatever you want!"

Nanaya said in a somewhat tired voice.

"Brother-in-law, you and Mr. Shion...is my sister really planning to acquire Lucas Film?"

"Yeah. How about letting you play a guest role as a Jedi Knight?"

Nanaya smiled and pinched Lily's little nose with his hand.

"Brother-in-law!"

Lily sat up, holding her nose. She looked at Nanaya with a blushing face and said, "My nose is not okay here!"

Only then did Nanaya realize that the person in front of him was Lily and not his woman.

"Um, sorry. I just didn't realize it..."

[The atmosphere just now seemed to be similar to that of Rin and the others...]

"It's okay! I was just scared just now."

Lily waved her hand and said, "Brother-in-law, if you like, I can pinch your nose 24 hours a day!"

Lily stretched out her white jade fingers and lightly touched the man's chest.

[This little goblin! ]

Nanaya's mouth twitched slightly, and he regretted using Lily as a shield just now.

After a pause, Nanaya pretended nothing had happened and continued, "Anyway, acquiring Lucas Film is a good opportunity for us at Washimine."

If the acquisition is successful, Marvel and Star Wars, the two most influential IPs in Europe and the United States, will be in Washimine's hands.

At least in the field of live-action movies, Nanaya feels that Washimine will continue to be ahead of the big six in the next ten years.

Plus [See Moon], currently the world's largest video website.

At present, the basic map of Washimine's entertainment empire has been basically formed, and we just need to wait quietly for these seeds to blossom and bear fruit.

Lily didn't really care about these trivial things. For her, the right thing to do was to overcome her sister's obstacles and conquer the man in front of her as soon as possible.

Unfortunately, because of what happened just now, Nanaya has begun to guard against her.

For the rest of the trip, Lily wasn't able to make much progress.

[Forget it, I've already made money today. ]

After Nanaya slapped away her [Offensive Hand] again, Lily comforted herself like this.

It was already late at night when Nanaya Kiryu sent Lily back to her residence in New York.

Downstairs, Lily tries to seduce Nanaya one last time by asking him to come upstairs.

But Nanaya rejected it righteously.

So Lily could only go upstairs dejectedly.

Nanaya waited downstairs until the light in Lily's room was turned on, then he signaled to his maid that she could leave.

"Sera, let's go!"

This meeting is completely over.

But the aftermath of the meeting will definitely not end.

Negotiations between Washimine and Lucas Film have just begun.

Nanaya's invitation to Lily today also added a lot of twists and turns to what happened later.
