The developer’s person-in-charge had yet to leave after signing the contract. He walked around the coffee shop and asked He Meng curiously, “The renovation here is quite unique. Are you planning to continue opening coffee shops?”

The popularity of the art park had decreased very much in the past two years. Many shops were empty. It was rare to meet a big client who wanted to sign a long-term contract. The developer also attached great importance to it, so the person who came to sign the contract this time was their sales office’s boss, Manager Sun.

Seeing that He Meng had spent so much money to rent this cafe, Manager Sun was curious if she wanted to continue to run a F&B business.

If He Meng chose to continue to do a F&B business, then Manager Sun did not think highly of this restaurant.

He Meng sorted out the contracts one by one and put them in a document bag. When she heard Manager Sun’s words, she shook her head. “We’re not running a cafe. We plan to open a studio.”

Manager Sun exclaimed. He knew about studios. Usually, it was a few people working together. It was a little similar to the operation of small workshops. For example, there were many small studios in this art park previously. However, the rent increased several times after the revamp. Many studios could not support it, so they moved away.

Yet, there were still people who came to rent this place to open a studio at this juncture. “Then you’re quite rich. How many people are in partnership? What kind of business do you want to operate?”

The agent shouted crazily inwardly, I know. This is my idol’s studio! However, he knew that this was his client’s private matter and it was not his turn to speak. Hence, he suppressed the excitement in his heart and did not dare to speak.

He Meng didn’t want to say anything to a stranger. She just replied casually, “There are several partners. We’re in the entertainment industry.”

Manager Sun thought that they were going to open an internet celebrity cultivation company when he heard that. Then, he looked at the design of this cafe and felt that it was quite reasonable. He nodded. “That’s quite suitable.”

It was rare to have a client who had signed a contract for about eight years. The Deputy Manager also wanted to keep them here for a longer time, so he said enthusiastically, “Our office is at the intersection ahead. If you encounter any trouble later, you can look for us directly or call us.”

Manager Sun took out a business card and placed it on the table. “You can also join our owners’ group chat. Everyone is in this park. It can be considered helping each other.”

He Meng accepted his business card and added his contact details. Then, she was pulled into the owners’ group chat. After greeting them, she obtained the key to the cafe from the original shop owner, locked the door, and rushed to the Industry and Commerce Bureau.

This contract was signed for eight years.

Initially, according to He Meng’s plan, they would sign a period of about three years. However, Yu Han said that they had to look further into the future. If this was really their blessed land and they had just taken off not long ago in three years, wouldn’t it be a huge loss if they couldn’t renew the lease when it was up?

Hence, since she wanted to rent it, Yu Han wanted to rent it for 10 years in one go. It was only when He Meng stopped her that she finally agreed to rent it for eight years.

According to the contract, they had to pay the rent to the original coffee shop owner in one go. In addition, they had to pay the first year’s rent to the developer in advance. Hence, they had to pay nearly 3.5 million yuan in total.

The advantage was that in the next three years, the studio did not have to worry about rent anymore. They only had to bear the utility and administrative expenses every month. The disadvantage was also obvious. One-third of the money in the company’s account was gone.

When she signed the cheque just now, He Meng’s hands almost trembled. As a famous manager in the entertainment industry, she had signed many contracts worth tens of millions or even hundreds of millions, but she was not as nervous as this time.

After all, she had signed contracts as an employee previously. Although she had a share of the money, most of it was for artists and companies. Moreover, she was the one earning money. It was different now. She was the boss and had to fork out money, and it was her own money.

Even if it was split in half with Yu Han, nearly two million yuan was not a small sum. Hence, her mood could be said to be completely different.

Fortunately, He Meng had seen a lot of the world, so even though she was agitated inwardly, she was still very calm on the surface. Hence, no one noticed her heartache and panic. They even thought that she was very decisive and generous for a petite girl like her to sign a contract without even blinking.

Little did they know that He Meng’s heart was also bleeding..
