0103 Be kind and polite
The two companies are in Pudong, not far away, Xiao Heng took Fang Qi to the Shanghai branch of Halo Media.
Originally, he wanted to bring Tang Ce here, and the two of them could have a discussion, but Xiao Heng thought about it, anyway, this matter was decided by himself, it was good to bring a vase, and to raise his own eyes, and also to raise the eyes of others.
It is said that almost half a month has passed since the last time Dong Tianming said that he wanted to pursue Fang Qi, but there has been no movement except for the time when he sent a lot of flowers.
Could it be that Xiao Heng reminded him to keep a low profile at that time, and he kept a low profile like this?
Fang Qi was also thinking about things at this time, her best friend Yuan Tingting pestered her all day long to inquire about Xiao Heng, as long as the two met, eight out of ten sentences were related to Xiao Heng.
She couldn't figure out what Yuan Tingting liked about Xiao Heng, wasn't she a little rich, handsome, and a little more capable... Hey, no, when I think about it this way, it seems that he is indeed the image of a successful person, and he is still a little fresh meat.
Fang Qi had opinions about Xiao Heng before, thinking that it was the first time the two met, and her preconceived thinking made her feel that Xiao Heng must be a sullen guy, and he looked like a fool in the office all day long, and he had never seen any group president look like this.
So the positioning she gave Xiao Heng was that of a gentleman.
But after nearly two months of getting along, she slowly discovered some of Xiao Heng's characteristics, mature and steady, which was what impressed her the most, because this characteristic reflected in his words and deeds was in stark contrast to his casual dress, why would a person with such a personality dress so casually?
In addition, Xiao Heng has a sense of humor and easy-going, every time she chats in the pantry, she is always the happiest person who laughs.
Fang Qi suddenly found that since then, her opinion of Xiao Heng has slowly changed. Following Xiao Heng today, I saw him wearing a casual suit for the first time, why did he suddenly have a good feeling.
Fang Qi shook his head slightly, sobering himself up.
Why did Xiao Heng put on a suit today? Because a wave of cold air suddenly came from Shanghai today, it was really cold.
Entering the Halo Media office area, there were already people waiting there to greet them, and the service was quite thoughtful.
Under the leadership of Zhou Xiaotian, the two came to Cao Wenwei's office.
The office is not big, and it is not as luxurious as the one carefully arranged by Xiao Heng himself, after all, this is just Cao Wenwei's temporary office, which is simple and practical.
After a polite handshake and a regular opening remark, the two sides quickly got to the point.
They had been vaccinated before, but when they saw Xiao Heng, who was younger than they expected, Cao Wenwei and Zhou Xiaotian were still surprised.
Cao Wenwei is nearly fifty years old this year, and when he looked at Xiao Heng, who was sitting opposite him and was more than two rounds younger than him and not much older than his son, he sighed at the speed at which young power is rising now. You must know that when you were still Xiao Heng's age, you were still in a mess on the college campus.
"Mr. Xiao is young and promising, with a unique vision, and he won a big victory in the film industry for the first time, which is really admired by the older generation. This time, Mr. Xiao became interested in "Thai Embarrassment", which is really our honor. Cao Wenwei came up first to be polite, and said good things first, with his experience, he likes to be praised by others when he sees lovers.
"Where, that time it was good luck that the blind cat met the dead mouse. Of course, Xiao Heng also has to be polite, and the courtesy is still exchanged, "I am very optimistic about the "Thai Embarrassment" issued by your company this time, so I will make a request to join the investment. The reason for my decision is, of course, the quality of the film itself and the efforts your company has put into promoting and distributing it. ”
"Talking. Cao Wenwei secretly admired in his heart.
Zhou Xiaotian next to him was also amazed that Xiao Heng had no signs of stage fright on such an occasion, and the language of the temporary organization was not leaky. When I was younger, I definitely didn't have such courage.
"Mr. Xiao has won the award, since you have the heart and I have the intention, then let's get straight to the point. Cao Wenwei cut to the chase, "Actually, this time I talked to you, not about the introduction of the third investment. ”
"As you know, "Thai Embarrassment" is a film that our company bought out, and we don't want to bring in new investors during this time period. To be honest, in terms of funding, the company is not short of money, so your previous request was rejected in my reply. ”
As Xiao Heng expected, Halo Media is not short of such a little money, and the production and publicity costs add up to a total of 60 million, which is not worth mentioning to them.
"However, since we asked you to talk, it means that there are other ways to cooperate between us. Just like the movie "I Do" that you released before, after thinking about it, we felt that this model could also be replicated in "Thai Embarrassment". Cao Wenwei continued, it turned out that his purpose for looking for Xiao Heng was this.
After listening to Cao Wenwei's words, Xiao Heng smiled slightly in his heart, although he couldn't join the investment, he was a little disappointed, but he was able to participate in the guaranteed issuance, and he could make the same money, it depends on how the plan is discussed. Everything is still under your control.
"That's right. Xiao Heng deliberately looked a little disappointed on the surface.
"Actually, investing in "Thai Embarrassment" has always been my goal. I've been very interested in this series since the release of "People in Embarrassment" the year before last, but I haven't been able to find an opportunity to invest in the past two years, so I missed it. It seems that I don't have a chance to join now, which is a pity. ”
"However, since it can be guaranteed to be issued, it is another disguised investment, which is also in my consideration, and I can talk about it. Xiao Heng said.
"Then how much is the guarantee plan given by Mr. Xiao?" Cao Wenwei asked bluntly.
"400 million yuan, 600 million yuan within 10 percent of the account, 600 million outside the account 15 percent. Xiao Heng was also unambiguous and gave a plan directly.
After hearing this, Cao Wenwei smiled slightly.
Within Halo Media, there has long been a forecast for the box office of "Thai Embarrassment", that is, around 300 million, and this expectation is very reliable. If they follow Xiao Heng's plan, then there is no need for them to bet on the box office of 100 million. And there is still a three-month publicity period to increase the box office appeal, and it is very likely that it will exceed 400 million by then.
Therefore, Cao Wenwei will never accept this plan.
Just before Xiao Heng came, he and Zhou Xiaotian also discussed a plan.
"Mr. Xiao, we know more about this movie, so we have also preset a set of guarantee plans. Cao Wenwei said.
"Please. It was also expected by Xiao Heng.
"The minimum guarantee is 500 million, 5 percent within 600 million, and 10 percent outside 600 million. Cao Wenwei said.
