Chapter 191: Trapped

Li Zong, who got the script, was like a treasure, and he no longer asked who wrote the script, but turned around and went to Liu Ye to discuss the script of the new work.

Although it was strange how this guy persuaded himself by himself, Hao Yun thought about it and finally didn't ask, but just told him to do this project seriously, and allocated him a budget of 20 million.

After all, this game is also a childhood for Hao Yun, and it carries many irreplaceable memories.

Now that he has the conditions to make it better, he naturally doesn't want to be so simple and sloppy.

I stayed in the company until the end of the day.

Hao Yun was thinking about where to go for dinner and then go back after a while, when he suddenly received a call from Lin Jun.

This guy recently went to Shenzhen City, saying that he wanted to expand the business of sharing bicycles, but now that so many days have passed, Hao Yun has not seen him make any movement.

Now that he suddenly received a call from this guy, to be honest, Hao Yun was still a little nervous.

But what he didn't expect was that Lin Jun didn't tell him about Modern Bicycle on the phone, but hurriedly asked him about the loan.

"Boss, why are you in such a hurry to repay the loan?"

"I feel distressed when I pay the interest." Hao Yun replied as a matter of course.

"I'm even more distressed by you...... The interest we took at that time was so low that it was equal to giving it away for nothing, and the bank was not happy to die of early repayment. Lin Jun said with a smile and a smile.

That being said, but I owe money and I don't feel sure!

Hao Yun didn't know how to describe this feeling, maybe his temperament hadn't kept up with the balance of the bank card, and he couldn't do anything about not paying back the money.

Anyway, now that the company's cash flow is sufficient, there are no big projects waiting to burn money, so it is better to pay off the loan first, and he feels more comfortable.

"You don't understand...... I won't explain this to you," Hao Yun coughed and continued to ask on the phone, "I haven't asked you yet, how is the modern cycling project going?" I heard that you recently went to the Shenzhen market? ”

Hearing the boss ask about the results of his business, Lin Jun smiled confidently and immediately said.

"It was perfect! Modern Bike's business in Shenzhen is progressing quite smoothly, and now Sea Lion Group is very interested in our business and intends to take out 500 million yuan to finance us! ”

Hearing this, Hao Yun suddenly became anxious.

"Five hundred million?! Financing so quickly? Isn't there no shortage of money for the modern bike project? ”

Once the second round of funding is launched, his mission will be completed. Although he can get the task reward, but the system's wool can't be gathered, can he not be in a hurry?

"That's what I said, but we lack allies," I don't quite understand why Mr. Hao suddenly became anxious, thinking that he was Lin Jun, who was not satisfied with this price, and said cautiously, "Actually, this price is already good, after financing, they only account for 30% of the shares, and we are equivalent to picking up 500 million cheapness with 20 million!" ”

The second round of financing directly increased by twenty-five times.

According to the equity distribution plan of 333 that he negotiated, this is equivalent to the equity of 20 million yuan that Yunmeng Group took at the beginning, and now it is worth 500 million!

However, having said that, Hao Yun didn't have any happy feeling in his heart.

No matter how cheap you pick it up, the money is not mine!

At least before Modern Bicycle goes on the market, this money will definitely not be withdrawn, and at most it will be used by the bank for equity pledge at a discount.

But perhaps because the mortgage in his previous life was not repaid until he died, Hao Yun was naturally disgusted with the loan, and this kind of thing was impossible to do.

Moreover, he had just paid off the bank loan.

Thinking that Hao Yun was suspicious of the small amount of money given by the funders, Lin Jun was still trying to explain the value behind this financing to him patiently, but until the end he didn't get the point of the problem.

After hanging up the phone, Hao Yun, who was holding the phone, leaned back in the office chair with an expression that didn't know whether to cry or laugh.

Is this the feeling of speculating in stocks and becoming shareholders?

was going to take 20 million to play a short term, but he was directly trapped.

What a sin......

……

Just when Hao Yun was having a headache about the future of modern bicycles, Director Liu, who was far away in Shanghai, was also having a headache because of what had happened recently.

About three days ago, Liu's Pictures spent 200 million yuan to shoot the martial arts masterpiece "The Great Master" starring well-known actors Chen Xiaofeng and Yu Shuhua was officially released, and achieved a good box office of 130 million on the day of the premiere!

There is only one month left in the 18th year of the new calendar, and judging from the current box office data of the premiere of "The Great Master", there is no problem in topping the box office of this year.

Liu Qizhe had no doubt about this, and he was about to open the champagne to celebrate.

However, unfortunately, his old rival Pastoral Film and Television's recently launched "Jialan Rain" suddenly became popular on the Internet for some reason, and it was the kind without warning.

Whether it's a scarf or a coercion, you can see people discussing this movie everywhere, and the topic is even hotter than his "Great Master"!

If it's just word-of-mouth explosion, forget it.

With the positive impact of word-of-mouth effect on the box office, the box office of this movie, which has a premiere box office of only 20 million, has risen for three consecutive days, getting higher and higher day by day, and today it is rushing to break the 100 million mark.

On the other hand, "The Great Master", like most popcorn movies, peaked on the first day of release, and the box office growth has declined.

Although he didn't think that this street-hitting movie, which had a box office of only 20 million at the beginning, could become a stumbling block on his way to the top, Director Liu still couldn't help but be a little worried in his heart.

What if?

The scheduling rate of this movie is simply the same as that of the theater's own son, in case the word-of-mouth effect continues, it is not good that by the middle of the month, the title of the annual box office champion may really be cut off by this "small production" with an investment of no more than 100 million!

“…… I went to the cinema to see this "Garan Rain", and I feel that the story is average? ”

"The plot is actually quite remarkable, the key is that the director is a little literate, and there is a lot of charm in the scenes, but at first glance it is easy to make people confused."

"You don't understand, some viewers just watch a forced grid. Especially the love and hate of the family and country in the concept of this movie itself has its own aura of forced qualifications, coupled with Director Tian's shooting style, it suddenly stands up the forced style of the whole movie. ”

Hearing the discussion among the people in the crew, Liu Qizhe's face showed an unhappy expression.

It's not that he can't be praised by others, but the problem is that this person is his old rival.

Keenly noticing the expression on his face, the assistant standing aside quickly stopped the conversation and motioned with his eyes to stop talking.

Noticing the eyes of Director Liu's assistant, the people who were originally discussing suddenly quieted down.

Yoo cleared his throat and was about to say something.

However, at this moment, the mobile phone in his pocket suddenly rang, so he swallowed back the words that came to his mouth, pointed to his mobile phone and said.

"I'll go out and answer a call."

With that, he walked out the door.

After leaving the office, he pressed the connect button and held his phone to his ear.

"Hello?"

An unfamiliar voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Hello Director Liu, I'm Wang Jianhui, take the liberty to call here."

Wang Jianhui?

This name sounds familiar......

Liu Qizhe thought for a while, and suddenly remembered that the name seemed to be on the list of directors of Pastoral Pictures, so his eyes immediately narrowed, and he said in a playful tone.

"Mr. Wang? Why did you get the call to me? ”

Wang Jianhui smiled and said.

"I heard that you were in trouble, so I called."

The difficulty is okay.

Who do you think it's because of?

Liu Qizhe's expression turned cold, and he snorted coldly and said.

"Mr. Wang came to see our jokes? But I don't think you need to be happy so early, even if the reputation of "Jialan Rain" has been a little unexpected recently, compared with our "Great Grandmaster", I'm afraid it is still a lot less interesting. ”

Wang Jianhui was not angry at Liu Qizhe's prickly words, but just smiled and continued.

"Director Liu doesn't have to be so sensitive, although Pastoral Pictures and Liu's Pictures are competitive, but Director Liu and I are not."

Liu Qizhe frowned.

"What do you mean?"

"I heard that this annual box office number one is very important to Director Liu, but now it seems that "Jia Lan Rain" has become the biggest obstacle on the way to the top of "The Great Master"? Don't be in a hurry to deny it, if the current trend continues, it will be a matter of time before the box office overtakes in the middle of the month. ”

After a pause, Wang Jianhui continued.

"Coincidentally, we have a common stake in this matter."

Aligned stakes?

Mr. Yoo suspected he had misheard.

If the box office of Jia Lanyu is a big hit, isn't the direct beneficiary the shareholder of Pastoral Pictures? Who would think that the box office of the movies produced by their own company is too high?

He really couldn't figure out how this stake was connected?

With a question mark in his belly, Liu Qizhe said in a deep voice.

"Why can't I understand what you're saying?"

Wang Jianhui patiently explained.

"In short, there is a VAM agreement between us and Director Tian, and this VAM agreement is related to our control of Pastoral Pictures. Not only that, but our initial judgment of "Jia Lan Rain" was that this movie hit the street with a high probability of happening, so we opened a short order on the stock price of Pastoral Pictures in the stock market...... You can understand that we are shorting our own stock. ”

it?

Shocked by this sentence, Liu Qizhe couldn't help but ask.

"Are you crazy?"

"How so? It's just a normal way to balance risk, but unfortunately...... The development of things has exceeded our expectations," Wang Jianhui shrugged his shoulders helplessly, "These measures were originally intended to hedge the losses caused by the box office fiasco, but if "Jialan Rain" is a box office hit, it will directly lose our interests." ”

As he spoke, he paused and continued in an understated tone.

"I have a way to get the source of "Garan Rain", are you interested in cooperating?"
