Chapter XXXVIII. Investment

"If I participate in the investment, can you set up a project to auction it out as soon as possible?" Zhu Ziqing stared at Wang Zhibo with his eyes and asked expectantly.

"This ......" Wang Zhibo didn't expect him to come up with such an idea. It makes him feel funny, and it makes him feel helpless.

Replaced by other authors, he refused without thinking about it. Even if the company's boss confesses that he wants to have a good relationship with Zhu Ziqing, he can't do it.

When it comes to investment, there are two situations in the entertainment industry. One is not strong, in order to raise funds, they often ask for money, and they want any money.

One is that they have the strength, as long as they set up a project, there will be a large number of local tyrants vying to invest, and there is no shortage of money at all.

Chenghai Entertainment is the kind of powerful, and they have a fixed owner behind them. Only when these financiers are not interested, others can take a sip of soup. So they basically don't accept investment from outsiders.

Zhu Ziqing, a small author, actually wanted to invest in the project of Chenghai Entertainment, and the ugly thing is that he doesn't know how thick the sky is, and he doesn't know how many legs Ma Wang Ye has. Cai Xianghe directly cast a disdainful look at him.

But Wang Zhibo didn't dare to show a little disrespect. Cai Xianghe is just a director and doesn't know a lot of things.

He is the vice president and senior manager of the company's TV drama division. Again, this negotiation is a representative. Knows a lot of things that Cai Xianghe doesn't know. The two in front of him are not ordinary, they are people he can't even stammer.

The company originally didn't know Tao Yingshuang's identity. Just wanted to have a good relationship with Zhu Ziqing, so I investigated his details in advance.

The investigators were very conscientious, and by the way, they also investigated the Quadruple Press. How do you know that this check found a big fish. Tao Yingshuang, the boss of Silian Publishing House, is actually the third son of the military Tao family.

As one of the largest companies in the entertainment industry, Chenghai Entertainment also cooperates with high-ranking officials. Ordinary families, they are really not afraid.

Although they didn't dare to provoke a single Tao family, they were not very afraid. But if you add a Lin family. Not to mention Chenghai Entertainment, even if the money behind it is tied together, it can't afford to offend.

And investigators soon found out. Zhu Ziqing's girlfriend Lin Baoer is the granddaughter of the Tao family and the granddaughter of the Lin family. Or the most favored one.

In other words, Zhu Ziqing is the grandson-in-law of the Tao Lin family. This discovery made the boss of Chenghai Entertainment break out in a cold sweat. Fortunately, I did an investigation in advance, and if I didn't look for someone to offend someone, it would be miserable.

However, the boss is the boss, and few people who can become the CEO of a large company are simple people. After the boss of Chenghai Entertainment calmed down, he quickly found an opportunity from this. An opportunity to climb the two Taolin families.

That's why he sent a vice president and a director's lineup to negotiate, and bought "Soldier Assault" that he didn't want to buy.

It is precisely because of knowing these that Wang Zhibo did not dare to refuse easily. He just came to talk about the adaptation rights of novels and TV series, and he couldn't do that master of investment.

"This thing...... It's beyond my purview, and I'm going to ask my superiors for advice. ”

"Understood." Zhu Ziqing was overjoyed when he saw that he didn't refuse.

Wang Zhibo walked out of the box under Cai Xianghe's puzzled gaze, found a quiet place and dialed the company's husband's phone. Told her what had just happened.

"Are you sure he's going to invest in his work?" The boss's flat tone didn't hear any emotion.

"Yes, what he just said, I'll be out and report to you right away." Wang Zhibo said worriedly.

"That's a good thing. You tell him. We took his investment. I'll put a shooting plan on the agenda right away. Not only do we want his investment, but you also want to invite him to participate in the production of the TV series. The boss couldn't hide his excitement and said.

"Huh? Mr. Tang...... This ......" Wang Zhibo couldn't react a little.

"Do this and this, do it right away. When it's done, I'll come back and ask you for credit. After speaking, Mr. Tang hung up the phone.

Wang Zhibo looked at his mobile phone and couldn't react for a while. Isn't it easy to accept outside investment? Why did Mr. Tang agree so quickly, and he looked very happy.

But it's useless to understand whether you want to or not, since the boss has agreed, what else can he say. Let's go back and talk.

Halfway through, there was a sudden pause. He showed a look of sudden realization. I see, I see. The company wants to climb Tao Yingshuang. But there is no one to build a bridge.

Zhu Ziqing is a grandson-in-law who has been recognized by the Tao Lin family. From Tao Yingshuang accompanying him to negotiate, it is known that the relationship between the two must be very close. Through him, it is easy to catch Tao Yingshuang's line.

Rushing to contact Zhu Ziqing is likely to be self-defeating. Now that he wants to invest in his own work, it is simply an opportunity to send it to his door.

Mr. Tang really deserves to be the company's Mr. Tang, and he thought of this so quickly. No wonder she is the general manager of the company, and I am only the vice president of the business unit.

sighed for a while. Wang Zhibo returned to the box and said to Zhu Ziqing: "The company has agreed to your investment plan, and the shooting plan will be put on the agenda immediately." ”

"Really?" The idea came true, Zhu Ziqing said in surprise.

"Really, I just asked our general manager." Wang Zhibo secretly observed Tao Yingshuang. I was relieved to see that he was also very happy.

Tao Yingshuang hadn't dealt with people in the entertainment industry much before, and he didn't know the trick. He simply thought that Chenghai Entertainment was temporarily established because of Zhu Ziqing's investment.

He is really happy for Zhu Ziqing, no matter whether the TV series adaptation of "Soldier Assault" makes money or not, at least it will be a rare experience. This is the misunderstanding caused by information asymmetry.

"I don't know how much Mr. Zhu is going to invest?"

"Don't rush yet. Now let's talk about the adaptation fee for "Black Hole". Three million is too little. Well, how about four million for a fixed price? Zhu Ziqing said sincerely.

But Wang Zhibo was puzzled by his leaping thinking. Just talking about "Black Hole", you said you want to talk about "Soldier Assault". Now talking about "Soldier Assault", you have to talk about "Black Hole" again. What exactly are you going to do?

Tao Yingshuang understood Zhu Ziqing's intentions, and nodded with satisfaction as he looked at him.

"This ...... This one...... Four million is a bit high. ”

"Mr. Wang, for the sake of happy cooperation in the future, everyone should be happy. Don't ask for a lot of money to pay back, the price is four million. Yes. We'll sign it. If it doesn't work, pull it down. ”

As soon as he heard Zhu Ziqing say that he was going to pull it down, Wang Zibo was a little panicked. Wasn't that a good talk just now? How can it be pulled down in the blink of an eye.

"Four million is four million, but that's our floor price. Absolutely no more. ”

"Don't worry, it won't." Zhu Ziqing said with a smile: "Two million for "Soldier Assault", four million for "Black Hole", a total of six million. I don't have to pay me the six million in cash. It's all converted into an investment. ”

"Huh?" Wang Zhibo and Cai Xianghe looked at each other. It turns out that Zhu Ziqing's so-called investment is like this.

This young man's brain is spinning fast, I really don't know how he came up with such a solution.

"Mr. Zhu, we have one more request. Can you be a screenwriter on Soldier Assault? ”

"This ...... I'm still in school, so I don't have time. Besides, I haven't written a script before. I really can't write it. ”

"It doesn't matter, the script of a TV series is usually co-written by several screenwriters. You just have to grasp the general direction. You are the original author, and you can only make the original "Soldier Assault" with you. Wang Zhibo continued to bewitch.

"This ......" Zhu Ziqing was indeed a little moved, but only a few days ago he made up his mind to put aside other affairs for the time being and concentrate on studying. Is it going to be disobeyed in the blink of an eye?

"And can you rest assured that such an important matter as casting is completely left to someone else? When the time comes, if the screenwriter adapts this novel into an idol drama, he will choose a rich and handsome man to play Xu Sanduo......" Wang Zhibo did not continue. But anyone could understand what he meant.

"I'll think about it, and I'll give you an answer the day after tomorrow." Zhu Ziqing's eyes flickered, and he pondered for a while before saying.

"Alright, I'll wait for your good news." Wang Zhibo also knew that he couldn't be too eager, otherwise he would be disgusted.

"The contract is being redrawn and will be delivered in a moment. Director Cai Xianghe will be the director of "Black Hole", and the two can exchange views. ”

Only then did Zhu Ziqing react, Wang Zhibo had been bewitching him to be the screenwriter of "Soldier Assault" just now. never mentioned "Black Hole".

He didn't think of anything else, though. In his mind, Wang Zhibo is not optimistic about "Soldier Assault". Involving yourself is also trying to use your fame to drive ratings.

Dare to underestimate "Soldier Assault", I hope that when this TV series creates miracles, your titanium alloy dog eyes will not be blinded. Zhu Ziqing laughed in his heart. Unbeknownst to everyone, Wang Zhibo is also secretly proud.

Although Cai Xianghe didn't know why things had changed so much, Zhu Ziqing became an investor.

But to be able to sit in the position of director in a large company like Chenghai Entertainment, the IQ is not low. I know that the financiers behind the company can't be easily offended.

The company is willing to accept his investment for a purpose that it does not know about. As for what the purpose is, you don't need to understand. As long as you know how to have a good relationship with the owner. You don't have to slap them up. At least not to be easily offended.

So, although I think Zhu Ziqing is a little arrogant. But I still held back my emotions and communicated with him about my understanding of this novel.

Zhu Ziqing is also afraid that "Black Hole" will be adapted beyond recognition, although the contract says respect for the original work. But it's just respect, not a strict adaptation of the original.

So he also hopes to tell Cai Xianghe some of his ideas through communication, and I don't know how much of a role it can play.

In fact, he doesn't know what adaptation. But who let him watch the "Black Hole" TV series in his previous life. Looking back now is tantamount to having God's perspective.

After talking for a while, Cai Xianghe, who was originally casual and perfunctory, became more and more shocked. The teenager in front of him looks like he doesn't know anything about the TV series adaptation.

The understanding of the characters and the setting of the plot are deeper than those of ordinary directors. After chatting with him for a while, I felt that I had benefited a lot. I have a clear understanding of many things that I don't know.

He finally put away his contempt and seriously discussed it with Zhu Ziqing.

This time it was Wang Zhibo's turn to be surprised. What's going on? Director Cai, why are you so serious?

The contract was quickly sent in by the staff of Chenghai Entertainment. Negotiations could not have been conducted with just two leaders, along with other staff members.

It's just that they're placed in other rooms. Only Wang Zhibo and Cai Xianghe came forward to negotiate.

Zhu Ziqing, Cai Xiang and the two were chatting energetically, how could they have the time to look at the contract. Besides, he doesn't understand very well. It was directly handed over to Tao Yingshuang for processing.

After the contract was signed, Cai Xiang and both of them had a sense of unfinished. Zhu Ziqing took the opportunity to pull a customer for QQ.

When he said that he was using QQ, he invited Cai Xianghe to continue to communicate with QQ. Cai Xianghe agreed without hesitation, and also took Zhu Ziqing's QQ number.

After separating from Wang Zhibo and others, Tao Yingshuang asked Zhu Ziqing: "Where are you going?" ”

"The company, the department is adjusted, I have to watch it." (To be continued.) )

PS: I just received a short station, and the cover of the boys' channel on the 16th client is recommended. I can't find where this location is.
