Chapter 245: The Best of Both Worlds
"Brother Qiang, hello!" The day after Jiang Ran spoke to Ah Qing, he received a call from Hua Qiang in person.
"Ah Ran, I'm sorry to disturb you!" greeted Hua Qiang, "You and Ranfeng Group's doubts about attracting investment in the cinema, Ah Qing already told me yesterday." I can assure you here that our business in Burning Maple Studios is absolutely only legal and will not cause you trouble. ”
Jiang Ran listened to Xiang Huaqiang's words, and didn't believe it in his heart, after all, if an entertainment venue was to operate formally, the money earned was not enough for a big man like Xiang Huaqiang to personally care about this matter. Therefore, Jiang Ran directly raised his own questions.
"Brother Qiang, don't blame me for being a gentleman with the heart of a villain, there are many people in your club, and in the absence of a specific monitoring and management mechanism, your guarantee is not enough for me to put the reputation of Burning Maple Cinema and even the entire group on it. ”
Jiang Ran's obvious distrust obviously made Xiang Huaqiang not very happy, "Ah Ran, do you trust me? ”
Although Jiang Ran is more suspicious of these underworld bosses in Hong Kong, with his current prestige and foundation in Hong Kong, he is not to the point of being afraid, so he only smiled at Xiang Huaqiang's words, but his attitude did not soften.
"Brother Qiang, it's not that I don't believe you, nor do I don't believe in the weight of Xiangjia's promise in Hong Kong, it's just that there are all kinds of people in the community, and it is inevitable that some people want to take risks in it. It's not impossible for the people in the club to be righteous and angry, and they can't erase their feelings, and they turn a blind eye to some things, right?"
Jiang Ran's words sounded good, but his attitude remained unchanged at all, which made Xiang Huaqiang slightly silent for a while, and then said: "Then Ah Ran, if you have any opinions, we will discuss them when you say them." ”
After Jiang Ran spoke to Ah Qing yesterday, he had a consideration in his heart, and he felt that under the overall form of Hong Kong now, it is unlikely that he wants to completely eliminate underworld forces in the entertainment industry.
Then, since these underworld forces can't be eliminated, they can only give these people a leading role in the operation of Burning Maple Cinema, restrict their business scope, and prevent the other party from engaging in illegal activities in the studio.
Therefore, after listening to Xiang Huaqiang's words, Jiang Ran did not hesitate, and said directly: "Brother Qiang, since your operation in Ranfeng Cinema is a regular operation, then I don't think the little brother who watched the scene needs it." I believe that our own security forces are sufficient to ensure the safety of your business. ”
The first request given by Jiang Ran made Xiang Huaqiang a little difficult to accept, but Jiang Ran obviously did not only have this request. "In addition, I hope that your entertainment venues in the cinema can be supervised by our cinema security to ensure that there is no non-operation. ”
"This is impossible!" As soon as Jiang Ran's words fell, Xiang Huaqiang's roar suddenly exploded from the microphone, resounding through Jiang Ran's eardrums.
"Ah Ran, these demands of yours are too much, if the field of our club is handed over to you to be responsible for safety, and you are asked to send someone to supervise it, then where will the face of our club be placed. It's impossible!"
Jiang Ran listened to the roar coming from the microphone, frowned slightly, moved the microphone outward, and waited until Xiang Huaqiang finished speaking, before he said calmly: "Brother Qiang, don't be so excited! The reason why I made such a request was also out of last resort." ”
"On the one hand, it is to ensure that the operation of the entire cinema is within the legal scope and avoid causing trouble to all of us. On the other hand, I'm also afraid that the grievances between your clubs will affect the entire studio, and when the time comes, our position will be very embarrassing. ”
Jiang Ran's words made Xiang Huaqiang slightly silent, and he also admitted in his heart that Jiang Ran's concerns were reasonable, but from the perspective of Xin Yi'an, Jiang Ran's request was impossible to accept.
Xiang Huaqiang sighed a little angrily in his heart, and began to retreat in his heart, and finally said with a little unwillingness: "Ah Ran, from your point of view, such a request may have some truth, but from our point of view, your conditions are unacceptable. ”
"And I believe that in the whole of Hong Kong, no association will accept your conditions, and at the same time, no entertainment venue operator will dare to accept your conditions and cooperate with you. Xiang Huaqiang said in the end.
Jiang Ran naturally heard the resoluteness in the other party's words, and even a faint warning. Of course, this was not the result Jiang Ran wanted to see, so he hurriedly spoke again: "Brother Qiang, don't say it so absolutely. Can you listen to me and give you an analysis and make a decision?"
"You say!" said Xiang Huaqiang's voice with a hint of unhappiness.
"Brother Qiang, I think that since my condition is unacceptable to the community, can we put aside the influence of the association in these businesses and truly do them as legal businesses. ”
When Jiang Ran said this, he was afraid that his statement would cause Xiang Huaqiang's dissatisfaction, so he hurriedly emphasized: "Of course, I don't mean that if there is the influence of the association in it, it must be an illegal business. But we have to face the reality that the business that the community participates in will definitely bring the things on the road and the habits of the community. ”
"If we exclude the influence of the community from the beginning of the business in Burning Maple Cinema, and only treat it as a normal business investment of the community, and not hang it in the name of the community, then all the problems can be solved. It will not affect the reputation of the community, but also ensure the concerns of our Burning Maple Studios. ”
Xiang Huaqiang was noncommittal about Jiang Ran's words, obviously not interested in Jiang Ran's opinion, and felt that it was completely taking off his pants and farting, which was an extra move.
After Jiang Ran finished speaking, he saw that Xiang Huaqiang did not open his mouth, knowing that such a statement was not enough to impress the other party.
"Brother Qiang, I also want to emphasize one point, that is, because your business in Ranfeng Cinema does not have the participation of the community, so when other people find trouble with you, we can deal a blow to Ranfeng. I think that in Hong Kong now, as long as it is not a life-and-death feud, no one should come to trouble our group for no reason. ”
Jiang Ran said this quite confidently, with the current two or three hundred professionally trained security team, with the help of Li Junxia's power in the police force, coupled with the influence of the Ranfeng Group in Hong Kong's public opinion circles, and Jiang Ran's own increasingly heavy weight in the Hong Kong business community, he does have such self-confidence.
"Oh, so what?" asked Xiang Huaqiang disappreciatively.
"Hehe!" Jiang Ran smiled softly, "Brother Qiang, don't you think that such a safe and legal working environment provided by our Ranfeng Group is very suitable for those who have made contributions to the community, but are tired of life on the road?"
"Don't you think that these businesses in Burning Maple Cinema are very suitable to become a back path for club members?"
Jiang Ran said this, and only then did he really say his goal.
It is very simple for every member of the club to join the club, but it is not easy to quit the club when they are deeply involved.
If you want to quit the community and live a normal life, then you will never be sheltered by the community again. Either continue to be a peripheral member of the community and cut off the connection with the community, which means constant trouble.
Now because of the security force of Burning Maple Group, Burning Maple Cinema can ensure that these people who want to quit the club will not be troubled when working, and because these businesses are regular businesses, the influence of the club is eliminated to a minimum, so the possibility of them slowly returning to normal life is relatively much greater.
This is quite attractive to many people who are tired of community life.
For the community, this part of the people who are tired of the life of the community can no longer benefit the community, if they don't care about their life or death, it will cold the hearts of some people.
Now Jiang Ran provides them with a condition, on the basis of earning a certain amount of money, to a certain extent, to solve the worries of the members of the association, and increase the cohesion of the association, why not.
