Upon arriving at their destination, the sightseeing bus came to a halt, and Mr. Shaw was the first to disembark.
"Olivia, for a cooperation, actual money talks, not drawing some blank cheques at will. For 1.5 billion, we cannot afford a penny less. You know it yourself, Cool Company owns the biggest film and television library, with copyrights to countless films and shows. You would not be making a loss with the money you're offering, otherwise, you wouldn't have come to discuss with me."
Olivia eyed Mr. Shaw, probing: "Could it be that Mr. Shaw is not in a position to make decisions? Jenkins Group owns both long video and short video platforms and definitely has the credentials to negotiate. It can't be a fixed deal. Unless you, Mr. Shaw, have qualms, you can't just approve it outright. 1.5 billion is just a price after all."
"Do you really see this place as a market?"
Olivia replied calmly: "This is business, and there should naturally be room for haggling."
