Chapter 781: The Bet

Leaning to the right a little more, Zou Wenhuai laughed softly, "Chen Sheng, you are going to dig a pit for the old man again, in this way, you first tell me what the bet is, and I'll see if you can afford to gamble." ”

"I must be able to afford to gamble," Chen Dahe smiled innocently, "A small bet hurts the body, let's make a small bet, how about a bet that we can do and not violate our heart's promise?"

"Heh, this is not a small bet," Mr. Zou shook his head again and again, "Either you directly say what you want me to do, or this bet is abandoned, and the more the better, of course, the more the better, and it is also a good thing for the motherland athletes to win more medals, there is nothing bad." ”

"Don't be in a hurry to refuse," Chen Dahe said with a smile, "You don't think I can manipulate the Olympics in the United States, maybe you will win, our bets are the same, you can also ask me." ”

"Oh," Mr. Zou raised his eyebrows, "then I make a request, can I ask Columbia Pictures to use Jack Chen as the leading actor of the big production?"

"Huh?" Chen Dahe squinted his eyes and was a little confused, "What's the matter with Columbia? I don't know the boss of Columbus, even if I agree to your request, I can't do it." ”

As for this Columbia company, he only knows that it is one of the eight major Hollywood companies, and at the end of the 80s, just before the Japanese economy collapsed, it was bought by Sony, and it caused an uproar in the United States at that time, because the company's trademark represents the Statue of Liberty in the United States, and it has a special meaning in the hearts of Americans. Unfortunately, in the end, the deal was approved by Congress and legally valid, and Columbia has since taken the surname Sony.

And at this time, Zou Wenhuai suddenly mentioned Colombia to him, which really made him a little confused.

"Hehe, it really didn't work before, but now, it may not be impossible," Zou Wenhuai smiled lightly, poked his head over and whispered, "Just this morning, that is, at half past three in the afternoon Eastern Time, EO Group, EO Film and Television Company, Coca-Cola Company, Columbia Pictures jointly held a press conference to officially announce that an agreement has been signed for EO Group to wholly acquire all the shares of Coca-Cola at a price of $1.45 billion, so from today onwards, Columbia Pictures is a wholly-owned subsidiary of EO Group, and will merge with the original EO Film and Television, but retain the Columbia company name. Then, with the friendship between Chen Sheng and Miss Jones, it is not difficult to help facilitate this request of mine. ”

Chen Dahe was a little confused, when did Columbia become Coca-Cola? Oliver still spent so much money to buy, is this going to heaven? 1450 million US dollars, how many movies do you have to make to earn it back, really all directors are Cameron.

"And," Zou continued, "Hollywood movies generally have risk diversification measures, and if there is a suitable script for Jack Chen, I can give an investment budget of up to $10 million, how about it?"

The scale of film investment in Xiangjiang is generally not large, most of them are less than 500,000 US dollars, and Zou Wenhuai can invest 10 million US dollars at a time, which can be said to be a bloody investment.

"Mr. Zou," Chen Dahe thought for a while and said, "If it is really as you said, EO Group has acquired Columbia, I don't think there is a problem with this condition, but why do you give me the feeling that you are pushing Jack to go to the United States, instead of Jiahe entering the United States?"

Hearing this, Zou Wenhuai couldn't help but show a wry smile, "Chen Sheng, you are a full man and you don't know that a hungry man is hungry, do you think that the original EO film and television company can bring out a few martial artists in the mainland, and think that Chinese can break into Hollywood so easily?" The reason why they can succeed is because EO is a purely American company, and they can spare no effort to support Li Lianjie and their participation in one movie after another, so as to barely put them in the second and third tier positions.

Moreover, entering the United States in the name of a company will definitely cause resistance from local film companies, in contrast, it is a hundred times easier to push an actor into Hollywood, even if it is to get investment, there will be film companies willing to accept it. ”

Chen Dahe nodded silently, Zou Wenhuai can have this kind of understanding, it can be seen that this old gentleman is very sober-minded, he knows how many pounds and taels he has, not acting blindly, no wonder after Li Xiaolong, he can send Jack Chen to Hollywood again.

"That's my condition," Zou Wenhuai spread his palms, "Tell me about your conditions, if I think it's acceptable, then our bet will be established, otherwise, the bet will be abandoned, didn't you just say that you want to persuade Miss Jones to support Jiahe's entry into the American market, then I still have this request, it's not too much!"

"Of course it's not too much," Chen Dahe shook his head lightly and smiled, "My condition is also very simple, that is, when the time is right, I will speak out on behalf of justice and justice." ”

"When the time is right?" Mr. Zou frowned, with seven points of surprise and three points of dissatisfaction in his eyes, "Chen Sheng's condition is still very vague, how do I know when this is the right time?"

"It's not vague, it's not vague at all," Chen Dahe shook his head and smiled, "My condition is very simple, and it's not forced, and the criteria for judging the timing are also determined by yourself, if you think it's not the right time, it's okay to never speak out, or you think that tomorrow's news is not pleasing to the eye, just catch one to support justice and justice, it's simple!"

Now Zou Wenhuai was even more confused, he really couldn't understand what benefit this condition could have for Chen Dahe, or was he really just casually talking about making a bet and had no other thoughts?

But thinking about Chen Dahe's performance just now, it is difficult for him to believe that such a person with slick means would be untargeted and waste an opportunity.

At this time, Chen Dahe added another yard, "As for the condition you just made, it can not be counted as a gambling contract, even if I complete the previous promise, if you win, you can make another request." ”

Zou Wenhuai pondered for a few seconds, and then patted the armrest, "Okay, since Chen Sheng is so refreshing, then I won't twist and pinch, let's make a decision." ”

Chen Dahe spread out the slap of his left hand, "A word is a certainty." ”

Mr. Zou looked at his palm and smiled slightly, then raised his right hand and slapped it down.

High-five is an alliance, and the bet is completed.

Chen Dahe withdrew his palm, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but show a smug smile.

Strictly speaking, Mr. Zou is not a patriotic businessman, he can only be regarded as a businessman with a clear position, but businessmen have the advantages of businessmen, especially the older generation of businessmen, who value their own reputation more than anything else, and basically know how to make trade-offs and speak their words.

He asked him for a promise, and when the Xiangjiang media exposed the dark deeds of those anti-bones on a large scale, he would naturally understand what he wanted, as long as he could speak out publicly, at least half of the filmmakers in the Xiangjiang entertainment circle would follow him to speak out publicly, plus the artists of Radio Station and Phoenix Channel, many artists would denounce it together, what kind of momentum would it be at that time!

By that time, his task would have been completed.
