Julia Lambert: “I have estimated the value of our company in China to be around 1.5 billion yuan.”

Harrison Clark nodded, “That’s great.”

“Also, according to the contract, Katie has to give us half of the copyright income she gets from this song. We preliminarily estimate that this income will reach about 10 million U.S. dollars in a year.”

Harrison’s eyes brightened, “That’s 60 million yuan, not bad.”

“In addition, many famous singers and music producers from Europe and America have actively contacted us in search of collaboration. We have officially opened up the European and American markets. As long as you and Carrie can maintain the same creative level, the potential copyright income from overseas will significantly increase the company’s value. This added overseas value totals up to 200 million U.S. dollars.”

“The influence from overseas will, in turn, enhance our position in the domestic market. So, taking everything into consideration, the potential value of the company should be around 3 billion yuan.”

Harrison squinted his eyes.

He was very happy.

Finally, he was truly wealthy.

With money, he could do many things.

Although these are just valuations and the money is in the company, turning them into cash still requires a gullible and deep-pocketed investor.

Even though his own pockets are still empty, it doesn’t hinder his indulgence in the beautiful future.

He once again reaffirmed to himself that stealing the song was the right decision.

There was no better, more convenient, and more reliable way to get rich quickly.

In just a few months, he was almost catching up with Jenna Kendall.

When Julia left, the evening dress-clad Carrie came over.

Harrison raised his glass to her, “Why did you come over? Today should be your shining moment.”

Carrie shook her head, “It’s not really important. You know I don’t like these occasions and just want to quietly write songs.”

“Then why did you come today?”

“Isn’t it to help you expand your influence? Look at that reporter, once he releases the photos and videos of our celebration banquet, it must be good for the company.”

“True. But you don’t seem very happy?”

Harrison suddenly asked.

Carrie nodded, “You know me well. I am grateful to Katie for making my song famous, but actually…”

“I know what you’re thinking. You’re not quite satisfied, and you feel that if you had sung the song yourself, the effect would have been great. Katie is excellent, but she still couldn’t bring out the highest level of ‘Self-Combustion,’ right?”

Carrie was stunned.

After a long while, she finally smiled bitterly.

“How do you always understand me so well?”

Harrison turned his face away, “Perhaps it’s fate.”

The reason he understood was that he already knew.

Five hundred years later, it was not Katie Swift’s version of “Self-Combustion” that influenced Sergey.

It was the second version, reinterpreted by Carrie herself after the copyright authorization expired in five years.

Carrie’s intuition was always so terrifying.

Her judgment was entirely correct.

All of this was within Harrison’s expectations.

Only Carrie, and it had to be Carrie, could interpret the most perfect ‘Self-Combustion.’

In order to re-sing the song, she spent five years refining herself, earnestly learning standard English accent, and practicing it on par with her mother tongue.

What she pursued was never to mimic, but rather to express her emotions more accurately in the language of another culture and mindset.

She was always striving for perfection and could not tolerate any flaws.

That’s why her rendition five years later elevated the song to another level.

Many more young people and ordinary citizens in Europe and America, eager to understand the emotions in the Chinese version of ‘Self-Combustion,’ voluntarily learned Chinese.

This greatly accelerated the maturity of a world communication model where Chinese and English could coexist, and played a role in promoting the perfect integration of human thought that contemporary people could not understand or believe.

Both the song and Carrie herself held a huge historical significance, and just imagining it gave Harrison goosebumps.”

But now, it seemed like Carrie wanted to confess her feelings.

Harrison could sense her hesitation.

The so-called single life advocate, to some extent, is just someone unwilling to compromise when they can’t find their true love.”

Harrison dared not look at Carrie’s face.

Sometimes a simple eye contact could spark different emotions.”

Maybe one day in the future, he could accept everything.”

By then, he could put his mind to seriously consider his own emotions and life.”

As for now, maybe he lacked the talent, and knew he lacked the courage and fighting spirit. Just racking his brains to figure out what he could do for the human race, which would inevitably perish in a thousand years, had already exhausted all his efforts.”

When he first began traveling a thousand years into the future, he was so resistant to that responsibility.”

Because he clearly knew he couldn’t bear it.”

Harrison always said to himself, “I really don’t want to be the savior.”

But tragedies happened one after another, and after all, he was just an ordinary person who couldn’t turn a blind eye to everything.”

He always unwittingly thought, maybe this time he could do a little more, maybe this time he could try a little harder. As a result, he became more and more deeply involved and could not extricate himself.”

Harrison wasn’t sure if that was his true nature, but it seemed like everything had naturally and logically led him to this point..
