His face was expressionless the whole time. After he sat down, he even rolled up his sleeves and looked at the time.
"h.e.l.lo, Miss Lin!" The white man"s a.s.sistant was a Chinese man who was around 40 years old. He wore a pair of gold-rimmed gla.s.ses and said with a smile, "Sorry, we were stuck in a traffic jam, so we came a bit late."
"No problem, please sit!" Lin Shanxuan smiled as she replied, gesturing for the other person to take a seat."Miss Lin, Mr. Owen will have another performance soon, so the time is very tight. I hope we can cut this short and finalize the matter as soon as possible."
Lin Shanxuan slightly frowned, "What about tomorrow? Do you have any other arrangements for tomorrow"s day?"
"Mr. Irwine has a public performance tomorrow morning, but he can spare two hours in the afternoon to familiarize himself with the score, so Miss Lin need not worry." The a.s.sistant said with a smile.
Xiao Rong, who was at the side, instantly looked anxious. She almost couldn"t hold back and wanted to interrupt.
Lin Shi Xuan pondered for a moment and said: "Isn"t two hours a bit too short? Although it"s only one song, this is the first time Mr. Owen and I are working together. We need a familiar process, and the melody of my new song is a bit complicated, so it would be quite difficult to play it well. "
The a.s.sistant leaned back in her chair and revealed a reserved smile, "Miss Lin, to those ordinary pianists, there is no problem with what you have said at all. But Mr. Irwine is the winner of the International Piano Grand Prix, and two hours is more than enough time for him to familiarize himself with a piece of music. You don"t have to worry about that at all. As for the cooperation you mentioned, with all due respect, as long as there are no problems with your side, Mr. Irwine will definitely have no problems. "
Little Rong, who was at the side, finally couldn"t hold it in anymore and interrupted, "What do you mean by that? Are you doubting Big Sis Xuanxuan"s professionalism?"
Lin Shanxuan turned her head to glance at Little Rong, who pursed her lips and had no choice but to shut her mouth.
The a.s.sistant said, "Of course we don"t doubt Miss Lin"s professional standard. I want to say, Miss Lin and Mr. Owen are both extremely accomplished artists, so their teamwork shouldn"t be too big of a problem. Two hours of teamwork should be enough!"
Lin Shanxuan pondered for a moment, then nodded, "Fine, I agree!"
The a.s.sistant smiled, lowered his head and moved closer to the Caucasian man. After conversing with him in English for a while, he said to Lin Shanxuan, "Mr. Owen said that he would like to see the score first."
Lin Shanxuan glanced at Little Rong, who immediately took out a piece of music from her bag.
After the white man finished reading, he said a few words to the a.s.sistant beside him.
"Mr. Owen said that he could play this song, so Miss Lin can be at ease!" After conversing with the white man, the a.s.sistant told Lin Shanxuan.
Lin Shanxuan revealed an expression of joy, "That"s good!"
"Miss Lin, please forgive my bluntness, but can you give me an accurate explanation regarding the remuneration?" The a.s.sistant smiled and said: "After all, Mr. Owen"s trip to China is very tight. We pushed away a very important schedule before we found the time to accept your invitation. So, we should first agree on the price, at the same time, we would like you to pay us first."
"You guys don"t follow the rules, how can you pay the money first?" When it came to the scope of her business, Lil "Rong immediately started fighting back.
The Caucasian man"s a.s.sistant looked at Little Rong and smiled at Lin Shanxuan, "Does Miss Lin think so too?"
Lin Shanxuan slightly frowned, then nodded and said, "There is no problem in paying the money first. I believe in Mr. Owen"s character. However, do you have an offer for the amount of the remuneration? "
The a.s.sistant said, "Mr. Irwine"s appearance fee is normally about five hundred thousand euros, but this time, since we had already pushed aside a very important schedule, you must pay Mr. Irwine an additional penalty. Adding it up, the total amount is at least one and a half million euros. Of course, if you are willing to pay a higher price, Mr. Irving can also a.s.sist you in making this song more perfect. "
Hearing this price, Lin Shanxuan was immediately shocked.
Xiao Rong shouted angrily, "1.5 million euros?!" "You guys are too much. Even if grandmaster pianist Kleidman were to personally come, it wouldn"t exceed 1 million euros. Besides, we only have one song on our side!"
The a.s.sistant said with a smile, "As I said, it"s too late to send a letter. If Mr. Owen is to help Miss Lin perfectly perform this concert, he must first cancel a very important activity. We are in breach of contract first, so the extra money should go to the penalty of breach of contract. Of course, if you find the price unreasonable, you can go on looking for others, and Mr. Irwine won"t press you. "
