"What's the matter? Carl? "
Li Mochen walked down the stairs with a look of high spirits after cultivation. "Or is there something that your company wants to communicate with me about?"
"Before you defeat Cardio Rhodes, the company won't make any new moves for the time being. I'm here for Belinda. "
As Carl spoke, he didn't notice that Angela had suddenly pricked up her ears. She was carefully observing everything about Li Mochen, but in the end, she couldn't find anything.
There was nothing strange about this guy. He didn't look like someone who had just robbed more than 100 million gold duns from Blood Hand.
"Didn't you ask me to help you make a new offer to Los Angeles Cultural Agency? They agreed to come here on Monday or Tuesday for a million gold duns. They've put forward a condition. They want to borrow your apartment. "
"Agree to it, but they'll pay an additional 500,000 gold duns for the use of the apartment. Is that okay, Carl? If they want to shoot a music video, they'll definitely make a mess here. "
Li Mochen looked at Carl with a questioning gaze. He had no choice. Although he was living in the apartment, the property rights belonged to Nathan Sports Group.
"Fine!"
Carl didn't care. He just felt that Li Mochen was asking for too much. Usually, a four-minute music video wouldn't cost more than three million gold duns to film.
"But we can't use this as compensation for delaying your studies. I'll continue to negotiate with them, but I don't know if they'll agree. But Ammo, you really should hire a manager — "
But this time, before he could finish, Angela raised her hand and interrupted, "Excuse me. The Belinda you're talking about is Belinda Harris, right? She wants to shoot a music video for you, Ammo? Why did you agree? One of you is from the fighting world, and the other is from the music industry. You don't even fit together. "
"I don't know why she wants to see me, but I need money."
Li Mochen looked at the girl with a strange look. "I need a gold shield now, Angela."
Even though he had robbed Blood Hand of a hundred million gold duns, that didn't mean he didn't lack money.
Dirty money would always be dirty money. Even if it was washed once, it might not turn white. Whether it was the FBI, the police, or the IRS, if they wanted to investigate, they would be able to. Otherwise, Antonio wouldn't have stored such a large amount of cash in the bank's safety deposit box.
Therefore, Li Mochen did not intend to let this money have any connection with his public career. At most, he would only use a portion of it to repay the Cardinal Club's loan. This was because the money that the latter loaned him was not in a proper way.
Apart from that, Xuri Company also had a new loan of 12 million gold duns with an annual interest rate of 16%. It could be predicted that during the war with Blood Hand, Li Mochen would have to pay tens of millions of gold duns.
Dwight Payton could help him settle some of his connections, but Li Mochen still had to pay for the things that needed to be smoothed out.
He didn't want to owe Dwight too many favors, and this would help him expand his network.
"They're interested in Ammo's image and his popularity among the young girls on the East Coast."
Carl Holden also explained, "Belinda is the youngest A-list actress in America. Her fans are all over the East Coast, which is beneficial to our company's promotion of him. It's a win-win situation."
"But —"
Angela frowned. "Haven't you thought about it? That woman, Belinda, might she have ulterior motives? Ulterior motives? "
"Ulterior motives? Ulterior motives? "
Carl and Li Mochen looked at each other, puzzled. "It's just a music video. What can she achieve? If it's for Ammo's image, you don't have to worry about it. The image consultant that we provided for Ammo will follow up the whole process. "
"That's not what I meant."
Angela looked like she wanted to say something, but in the end, she couldn't say it. She just walked out angrily. "Forget it, it's useless for me to say it now. Anyway, you have to be careful, Ammo. This woman is deliberately getting close to you, you know? I advise you not to do anything that you'll regret. "
Li Mochen looked at Angela walking out of the door with a blank expression. He then shook his head and walked to the dining table.
To his relief, Angela had only given him a bowl of medicinal soup that could be considered very 'ordinary' in the eyes of the Medici family. The ingredients were mainly used to remove internal heat, clear away toxins, and moisten the meridians and dispel stagnant blood.
So this time, he happily brought the bowl of soup to his mouth. As he sipped, he asked, "Do you understand what she means? Carl? "
"I guess she's jealous. She's afraid that you'll be charmed by Belinda, or even steal her away. She probably likes you very much, so she's worried. All little girls are like that. "
When Carl said this, he couldn't help but feel moved. He knew Angela's identity. If the two of them really reached a certain point in the future, Li Mochen could really struggle for a few decades less. He might even be qualified to inherit the Wildenstein Group.
But the possibility of this was not high.
"But we can't completely ignore it. I know that Angela and Belinda both graduated from the Star Lineage Noble Academy, and they're about the same age. I guess they know each other."
"That is to say, we can't completely ignore it, right?"
Li Mochen was deep in thought. He remembered the inexplicable hostility he sensed from Belinda that day.
"The second thing, didn't you say before that you wanted to find a publisher to submit a comic?"
Carl Holden steered the topic back on track. "We've already submitted your comic to three publishers. Because of my boss, they'll enter the review process as soon as possible and give you an answer as soon as possible. I've left my phone number with them. Pay attention in the next few days. "
Li Mochen's mood suddenly became a little perturbed. He experienced a feeling that he hadn't felt for a long time.
Whether it was the fighting competition or the robbery against the Craig Community Bank, Li Mochen was very confident. This was because of his understanding and confidence in his own strength. But when it came to things like comics, first of all, it was his first time coming into contact with them. Secondly, he wasn't too sure about his somewhat oriental drawing skills and plot.
Whether or not his sketches would be able to pass the review and sell well was still unknown.
After all, among the people around him, apart from William Jacques, the others didn't have high evaluations. Most of them thought that the plot was too simple and childish.
"Also —"
Carl Holden put a large stack of documents under his arm on the dining table. His expression was solemn. "Mr. Paton asked me to tell you that since you've already started, don't stop. A force like the Dragon Witch Cult is a monster that will immediately grow a second head if you cut off one. "
