With all these qualities, I will eventually become immortal.

Chapter 212 Dawn Begins, The Betting Agreement (3k)

The price offered was indeed insufficient.

Once this news gets out, other companies will snatch it away in no time.

Yu Chenguang's expression changed slightly, and he said apologetically:
"Master Luo, we truly were unaware of this news. I'll speak with the company's senior management. Please wait a moment, I'll be right back!"

Taking this opportunity, Luo Guanyun instructed his apprentice:

"Chuan'er, if I don't say anything later, don't nod. Hanhai has been developing very rapidly in recent years, and it is indeed one of the ideal companies for cooperation in Master's mind."

However, the most valuable quality in a person is self-respect. If we want to gain an advantage in future strategic cooperation with martial arts practitioners, we must make them feel the pain now so that they will get used to it in the future.

These bastards are bloodsuckers too; don't feel sorry for them.

Meng Chuan nodded in understanding. His master's words, though rough, were reasonable; he was thinking of him.

Five minutes later, Yu Chenguang returned slowly.

He said warmly:
"Gentlemen, I have already communicated with the company's senior management and will increase Meng Chuan's martial arts salary to six million per year!"
The agreement will be issued for a maximum of three years. If Meng Chuan does not arrive at the martial arts family within three years, the agreement will automatically become invalid according to regulations.

Most importantly, a pre-agreement on martial arts must be signed with Hanhai. Going forward, we will focus more on cultivating Meng Chuan's commercial value, helping him build his personal brand, and maximizing mutual benefit.

Of course, if Meng Chuan fails to break through the first major limit within three years, his application will still be invalidated.

This treatment is tantamount to treating Meng Chuan as a martial artist ahead of time.

Meng Chuan glanced at his master, and seeing that his master remained silent, he also remained expressionless.

The air was heavy. After a moment, Luo Guanyun slowly spoke:
"My apprentice still needs to practice martial arts, and I also have things to do, so I won't beat around the bush."

The total of 18 million over three years will be rounded up to 20 million and distributed in one lump sum. We don't want any other quack medicines, regardless of whether they're all-natural or not.

Meng Chuan's early breakthrough is a win-win situation for you all; it further proves Han Hai's insightful judgment.

Yu Chenguang looked troubled. Although Luo Guanyun had relented, it was far beyond his bottom line.

This money is a direct loss; aside from being able to sign a martial arts pre-agreement with them and gain an advantage, there is no return to be gained at present.

"Master Luo, this seems a bit exaggerated. Please wait a moment."

At this stage of the negotiations, his rank is far from giving him the final say, and the entire process has been handed over to relevant senior executives of the company for remote control.

Having said that, he hurriedly left. Luo Guanyun smiled at Meng Chuan and said:

"If I'm not mistaken, the next step is to propose a betting agreement. If you think it's feasible, nod your head and make the decision yourself."

"it is good."

As the saying goes, experience is the best teacher. Just as his master had predicted, Yu Chenguang proposed a betting agreement.

"Master Luo, after discussions among the company's senior management and taking into account Meng Chuan's potential, we can sign a performance-based agreement. The details are as follows; you can take a look first."

After saying that, he handed his phone to the master and apprentice, which contained the company's newly drafted electronic agreement.

Luo Guanyun complained:

"The betting agreement shows that you still don't recognize my apprentice's potential. Fine, Meng Chuan, take a look and decide for yourself."

Yu Chenguang said awkwardly:

"Master Luo, please don't mind. Even if Xiao Meng fails, he won't lose anything. He will still receive six million a year and other benefits."

Luo Guanyun nodded inwardly. That was indeed true, indicating that Han Hai genuinely wanted to win over Meng Chuan.

Ten minutes passed, and Meng Chuanzai carefully reviewed all the details before slowly saying:

"can."

The new agreement also includes the right of priority cooperation for martial artists under the same conditions after they enter the country.

The biggest difference is that there are two new treaties.

1. If Meng Chuan can advance to the finals as a seeded player, he will receive a one-time payment of 20 million. In addition, Meng Chuan will cooperate with the advertising operations during the finals (without affecting any training time).

If the above-mentioned terms cannot be fulfilled, the benefits of the previous version of the agreement will continue to be implemented.

The advertising needs to be done in advance so that some costs can be recovered, which Hanhai can accept.

Second, if Meng Chuan achieves a top-three finish in the Supernova Tournament finals, Han Hai will pay an additional five million for each additional place he places, up to a maximum of thirty-five million. Furthermore, the martial arts pre-agreement standard will be upgraded to the [Dawn's Departure] level.

Even after hearing Meng Chuan's verbal agreement, Luo Guanyun was still uneasy.

After receiving it and reading it, I was immediately surprised and impressed by the boldness of this large company.

"Dawn Launch Class"

This is the highest-level contract that HanHai Company has ever signed with a young martial artist.

Normally, martial artists who cooperate with [Han Hai] usually need to undergo annual qualification reviews and break through the A to SSS level of conventional contracts before they can sign the [Dawn Start] level of unconventional contracts.

Its scale matches its name, and it is no longer a simple cooperative relationship, but a new dawn that can truly influence the company's development.

But there are even more unconventional contracts above that, though they have nothing to do with young martial artists, but Luo Guanyun decides to try to get them again.

He tilted his head and said:
"Xiao Yu, how about changing the pre-agreement level to [Star Navigator]?"

Yu Chenguang was on the verge of tears, and awkwardly said:
"You must be joking."

The Starry Navigator is extraordinary and represents HanHai's highest level of talent cooperation agreement.

He is reviewed every four years and is hailed as the most cutting-edge talent guiding the company's development.

The last recipient was ten years ago, when he was in his second major life limit. Now, the Tiger-type Grandmaster is [Xuan Sha Shan Jun Shang Ru Yi].

Luo Guanyun laughed it off and let it go; he had only said it casually.

He was completely convinced that Meng Chuan's biological father, whom he had never met, was perhaps the CEO of Hanhai Company.
The three talked for a while, and then a new paper contract was delivered by their colleague.

After confirming that everything was correct, Meng Chuan signed his name on it. "Master, please hold onto this for me for now."

He was afraid he would lose it, so he left it with his master.

A moment later, seeing Meng Chuan put down his pen, Yu Chenguang finally caught his breath.

This master and apprentice pair is truly difficult to deal with; if they fully fulfill the performance-based agreement, it will exceed the company's planned budget by 50%.

But at least the mission was accomplished. If Meng Chuan can really meet the above conditions, then Han Hai won't lose out.

According to Hanhai's internal large-scale model calculations, Meng Chuan's success rate in reaching the finals is 80%, and his seeded status is 30%.

As for the probability of reaching the top in Shanghai, it is infinitely close to zero.

He stretched out his palm and smiled at Meng Chuan:

"Mr. Meng Chuan, we are very pleased that we have reached this cooperation agreement and can work together to leverage our respective strengths and achieve mutual benefit. We also look forward to your performance in the competition."

HanHai's headquarters are located in Shanghai. We wish you a triumphant ascension to the top. Hundreds of thousands of employees across the group will celebrate with you.

Meng Chuan also shook hands with Yu Chenguang and said:

"It is an honor to cooperate with your company, and I look forward to that day."

Having finally made it a long trip, Meng Chuan and his master went downstairs to enjoy the night view of Wu'an afterwards.

Luo Guanyun repeatedly reminded him along the way:
"With your mentor and the United Nations as your backers, even top-tier companies like that wouldn't dare to deceive you, so you can rest assured about that."

However, to maintain this "special treatment," including the betting agreement, one must work diligently and practice hard.

Don't let fame and fortune blind you.

Meng Chuan nodded in agreement, understanding that everything else was secondary; only strength was the most crucial factor.

Luo Guanyun received a call from a fellow villager, and then said to his apprentice:

"You can walk around a bit more and then go back to rest. I'm going to have a drink."

"Okay, Master, you should come back soon too."

Meng Chuan strolled around the commercial street, and apart from food and drinks, most of the items were souvenirs related to the Supernova Games.

He picked out some to take back to his family and friends, and then prepared to return to the hotel.

Today, Long Zuochan has not yet begun his meditation. The second little yellow dragon in his mind has already formed its head, but its body and tail will take some time to develop.

Meng Chuan would not waste a single day when it concerned his weaknesses.

After Long finished his meditation practice, Meng Chuan prepared to take a shower and go to bed.

Meng Yiyi will come to the hotel to see me tomorrow, so I can give her the protective suit.

Meng Chuan took it out of his suitcase, folded it neatly, and thought to himself:

"The Taihang Mountains are full of monsters. It's not safe for my older sister to stay in the mountains every day. I need to talk to her properly tomorrow."

Just as he was about to close his eyes, his phone screen lit up.

Meng Chuan casually swiped the link open; it turned out to be a link sent to him by Meng Jiaolong.

It also included a sentence:

[Meng Chuan, you don't usually pay attention to these things. This is a very famous esports prediction blogger. He made a video predicting the results of the second stage of the Supernova Tournament.]

His accuracy rate has historically been nearly 90%. You can skip to around 12 and a half minutes to see the predictions, which are specifically about the Northern Division.

Okay, thank you.

After giving a brief reply, Meng Chuan opened the link to watch.

On the other end of the phone, Meng Jiaolong saw that Meng Chuan had replied with just two simple words, and she angrily started hitting her pillow in the room.

After a moment, she reluctantly reconciled with herself.

"Meng Chuan, you big idiot!"

"Never mind, as long as Meng Chuan is happy every day."

After Meng Chuan opened the video, he followed Meng Jiaolong's instructions and dragged the video to the introduction of the Northern Division.

At the same time, that familiar, flamboyant figure in a yellow robe suddenly filled the entire screen.

It was Zheng Zhenzhen's older brother, Zheng Chengcheng.

Hello everyone, now that we've finished discussing the Western Conference, let's start with the number one seed and proceed to analyze and predict the advancement of the Northern Conference.

The first seed, given by Lao Lu, is Zheng Chengcheng from the main campus of Wuhan University, a top-tier university.

Zheng Chengcheng came to the Yong'an competition area for some unknown reason, and from the beginning to the end of the preliminaries, he seemed to be in complete control. In fact, he didn't reveal any fighting skills at all since the start of the competition, which gave us a glimpse into his strength.

Moreover, he is the most formidable contestant in the Northern Division, and Lao Lu can hardly imagine how many tricks he still has up his sleeve. Therefore, first place is awarded to this grandson of the Heavenly King.

Meng Chuan nodded. This person's analysis was indeed correct. Although Zheng Chengcheng's physical strength on paper was not as good as some veteran players of the ninth level.

However, according to Zheng Zhenzhen, Zheng Chengcheng's "Buddha's Wish to Cross the Dragon" boxing style has never been demonstrated.

Even so, they were able to defeat Chen Jingyi, a disciple of Luo Meng.

Therefore, even with his greatly improved strength, he dares not say that he can win with 100% certainty.

As Meng Chuan continued reading, he felt a little hopeful.

Will I be among the ten predicted to advance?
