Huang Bai then invited Su Dongcheng and Zhang Gang out for a meal, and gave them and their families some gifts.

Huang Bai invited them to eat at the private restaurant where Mu Kamian had a stake, and they actually knew that there was such a place, but they didn't come often because it was too expensive.

These two people, one is the head bank president of Baihua Longxing Head Office, and the other is the manager of the branch. Both of them coincidentally recommended some investment projects to Cork, saying that the bank could provide loans to Cork.

Well, in terms of this bank, there are really many ways, and they should also have some business indicators.

Now Cork has become a humanoid money printing machine, and there is a steady stream of wealth almost every day. All this wealth must not be stored in the bank, because if it is stored in the bank, it has to pay interest to the cork.

Although Huang Bai is no longer just cooperating with Longxing Bank, the wealth of Mythical Entertainment has been partially dispersed in other banks. But there is really a lot of money deposited in Longxing Bank.

Anyone who has worked in a bank should know what the bank is doing with the money of those savers. That must be used to make money as an investment, which is called money to make money.

They lend money as an investment.

There are really not many high-quality customers like Cork, and with Cork's current ability to absorb gold, banks don't have to be afraid of lending more money to Cork, and they don't have to worry about Cork not being able to pay it back.

Therefore, their banks actually prefer to handle some loans for Cork. Lending to Cork is actually equivalent to using Cork to make money for their bank money, and stable interest income is much more secure than taking the money themselves to invest in the financial business.

And if you want Huang Bai to handle the loan business with their bank, you can't say that Huang Bai has borrowed another 10 billion yuan for no reason, right? In this way, they have to recommend some suitable investment projects to Cork, those investment projects, not to mention how much income will be made after investment, but generally can ensure that Cork will not lose money.

In some projects, the bank will definitely not be directly involved in the investment, because it has to consider the risk and the problem of being able to withdraw the funds at any time. At this time, there is a need for some suitable investment objects, so that this investment object can share the investment risk for their bank.

For such a situation, Cork is also psychologically prepared and understandable.

At the beginning, Su Dongcheng and Zhang Gang did help themselves, and they owed them a favor, and then, they also had a certain relationship with them, which can be regarded as friends.

Now that they recommend these projects to themselves, it is not that they are using themselves for anything, but more like talking to each other. They have some business information that is difficult for ordinary people to know, and telling themselves that this is also tantamount to giving themselves a chance to expand the business of Mythical Entertainment. In the end, whether you want to invest or not, of course, is a matter of your own consideration and decision.

But Huang Bai also knew that since they proposed it, then he had to express himself to some extent. Otherwise, they may not find themselves again next time.

In this world, there are really many rich people, and the rich people who have a good relationship with them are definitely not the only one. In a way, they can talk to themselves about this first, which is indeed a kind of preferential treatment for themselves.

The problem is that Huang Bai is now bent on doing a good job in this mythical entertainment, developing in music and movies, and there are not many other investment intentions for the time being.

After all, Cork is only one person, and his energy is limited, so it is impossible to involve too many commercial projects at once. For example, real estate, retail, hospitality, jewelry, and so on.

However, a project mentioned by Su Dongcheng, Huang Bai is really a little excited.

That's the cruise industry.

When Huang Bai invited them out for dinner, he naturally invited them not only personally, but also their families. And himself, in addition to Huang Shaojun coming along, there are also twin sisters Shen Xiang and Shen Lan.

These two sisters, one is Huang Bai's assistant and the other is a secretary, and they have to be responsible for some affairs of Huang Bai's entertainment.

After eating, Huang Bai invited Su Lecheng and Zhang Gang to the side for tea, and the two sisters accompanied Su Lecheng and Zhang Gang's wife and children.

After the tea master of the private restaurant dressed in beautiful ancient Hanfu made a pot of fragrant kung fu tea, Huang Bai motioned for her to withdraw.

Huang Shaojun was beside him, and after handing tea to everyone, he sat back next to Huang Bai.

Huang Bai smiled at her, shook her hand secretly, and then said to Su Dongcheng: "President Su, Manager Zhang, thank you for telling me about the investment project, but I don't have any plans to carry out too many commercial projects now. But what's the deal with that cruise shipyard on the British Isles? Well, I'm not interested in shipyards, I'm not interested in building cruise ships, but after the Chinese New Year, I plan to make a movie related to cruise ships, this movie is a stepping stone for my mythical entertainment to knock on the international film market, so the investment may be a little bigger."

"Oh? So how much money are you going to invest in making this movie?" When Su Dongcheng heard this, he immediately asked with great interest.

"This...... I don't really have a budget for the production cost of a movie, after all, when I make a movie at Myth Entertainment, I basically don't set the shooting cost, at most I have a budget for the lowest price, and then there is no cap, and I try to make the best movie possible." Huang Bai really can't say how much money to invest.

"Then you can roughly estimate how much it will cost to make this movie." Su Dongcheng glanced at Huang Bai speechlessly, he really hadn't seen a movie like Huang Bai.

But it is precisely because of this that he also admires Cork very much and is particularly optimistic about this young man. If it weren't for the fact that his daughter was already married, he really wanted to match.

In other words, he has gone to the cinema to watch the three movies that Myth Entertainment has released now, which is indeed very good, much better than other movies.

"Hmm...... I guess we'll have to invest at least $2 billion." Huang Bai thought for a while and said, "More than 2 billion, it should be about the same."

"Poof......

Zhang Gang, who was sitting not far from Su Dongcheng, almost squirted out a mouthful of tea, and he said in horror: "2, 2 billion? Still above?"

Su Lecheng was also surprised: "Is the cost of making movies so high now? 2 billion? I remember that even some of the big entertainment companies in our Dragon Country, their annual investment budget for making movies is almost more than 10 or 2 billion. But their budget, that's the budget for making ten or even dozens of films. This one...... Is it necessary? A movie is 2 billion, how much box office does it take to recover the cost? At least 6 billion at the box office of the movie, right?"

"Well, I plan to use this movie to hit the highest box office record of our Dragon Kingdom, with the goal of reaching 10 billion movie box office. Of course, this movie will definitely be released simultaneously around the world, so it should be able to make money."

"Uh...... Billion? Huang Shao, you really dare to think about it. Making a movie is like scratching a lottery ticket, no one dares to say that they will definitely be able to make money, if they pounce, it will be bankrupt......" Zhang Gang said with wide eyes.

"Ahem!" Su Dongcheng took a deep look at Huang Bai and said, "It's not enough to go bankrupt, with Huang Shao's current assets, it won't really hurt you to take out 2 billion to make a movie, I'm a little optimistic about you." Then this investment will take our business that Longxing is very good at?"

"Haha, Governor Su, you really know how to do business. Well, I don't lack this investment here." Huang Bai smiled, "Tell me about the shipyard you got the news about. I'm telling you to make this movie because we're going to use a ship, we're going to use a big cruise ship."

"Hmm...... Since Huang Shao, you really plan to invest 2 billion to make a movie, and you will also use a big cruise ship. Let's talk to you about the shipyard." Su Dongcheng said: "This shipyard used to be mainly engaged in the production and manufacture of cruise ships, with a history of 100 years, and the British William Vitesse shipyard was once one of the top ten shipyards in the world. Then, more than ten years ago, it was acquired by a wealthy businessman from our Dragon Kingdom in Southeast Asia, who is also engaged in shipping. Unfortunately, after he bought the shipyard, he switched to manufacturing cargo ships, and it was difficult to get orders because of the poor management. I want to dry back on the cruise

However, it was found that some of the old workers were old and had long since retired, and it was difficult for new employees to regenerate competitive cruise ships. After all, at present, the cruise industry has also been very hot, some cruise shipyards, whether in terms of performance, styling, market, etc., have been leading step by step, this shipyard now wants to return to the cruise market, I am afraid it is a little late. As a result, we are now facing a situation of bankruptcy and bankruptcy."

"By the way, this dragon merchant in Southeast Asia is the famous South Asian ship king Huang Yafu, or your own family. He started as a dry foreign freight forwarder, and through that shipyard, he expanded his shipping business of ocean shipping, owning hundreds of large, medium and small commercial cargo ships. Now that he is old, he doesn't seem to have so much ambition, and he feels that the shipyard can no longer produce benefits for him, and it is useless to hold it in his hands, and he still needs to take out a large amount of money every year to maintain the shipyard, two or three thousand shipyard workers, even if there are no orders, this salary cannot be less. So, he wanted to sell the shipyard."

"He has a lot of business dealings with our Baihuacheng Longxing Bank, and he revealed this intention to me in private earlier, if anyone wants to take over the shipyard, they can talk to him directly. If not, then I want Longxing Bank to auction and sell it on my behalf."

Huang Baijing listened to Su Dongcheng and asked, "What about this price?"

"This...... It's about the same budget as you would invest in making a movie."

"2 billion?" Huang Bai asked in surprise.

"Well, if you really want to get involved in this shipbuilding industry, you can really think about it, the value may be negotiable, I think, two or three hundred million less, it is estimated that it can."

"No, I mean, a shipyard can be bought for about 2 billion?"

Cork is really a little surprised, in Cork's impression, a shipyard should be very valuable. 2 billion? That's about 300 million US dollars. You must know that at present, the largest luxury cruise ship in the world, one is about 1 billion US dollars. A shipyard that is less than the value of a luxury cruise ship?

Su Dongcheng looked at Huang Bai's surprised appearance, and immediately knew that Huang Bai should not know anything about the shipbuilding industry.

He smiled and said to Huang Bai, "Otherwise? Hehe, Huang Shao, you don't understand this shipbuilding industry. A shipyard, the core is their shipbuilding technology, then their shipbuilding skilled workers, materials, shipyard docks, and so on. Luxury cruises are expensive, but they are ships built for others, not shipyards. In fact, his current offer is already a much premium offer. The actual value is not worth that much money at all. If you really want it, you can definitely win more than 1 billion."

"Oh? Then Governor Su, how much money do you think you can win?" Huang Bai asked.

"1.6 billion."

"I'll give 1.8 billion." Huang Bai said directly: "President Su, I will give 1.8 billion, but I want the other party to guarantee that all the procedures of this shipyard are complete, and there will be no legal disputes and shipyard debts, and I want them to guarantee that after the shipyard is transferred to me, it can start shipbuilding at any time." The original core shipbuilding technology, skilled workers, etc., must be kept, and the shipbuilding can be built as I want it right away. If you can guarantee these, then it is up to your bank to negotiate, no matter how much price you negotiate, it will be regarded as a business fee for your bank. Moreover, the 1.8 billion can be used to handle the payment business with your Longxing Bank."

"Deal!"

After Su Dongcheng heard what Huang Bai said, he immediately made a decision.

Because for him, it's another business that is sure to make money. Even if there is no payment business, he can directly make the difference from it, and it is estimated that he can talk about less than 1.6 billion, and finally about 1.5 billion can complete the transaction.

And Huang Bai, he didn't care how much money Su Dongcheng could make from it, because Huang Bai felt that he really needed such a shipyard.

And this shipyard is still in England, which is also just right.

Cork wants to rebuild a Titanic, just as it was, but it doesn't really need to build a Titanic that can actually sail the oceans. It's just a matter of building a model for your own film.

This large cruise ship is exactly the same as the Titanic, and it can sail offshore

OK. Normally, it is moored at the dock of the shipyard and operated as if it were a five-star hotel.

Huang Bai felt that his idea should be feasible.

For the British, the Titanic is indeed their pain, if Cork can bring this ship back to life, and the Titanic movie can become a global hit, then this will be developed.

This ship will also become the symbol of the shipyard, which is equivalent to the reputation of the shipyard at the same time.

Huang Bai's ship-related movies are not only this one movie, but many other movies will need to be shot on ships in the future, so if you have a shipyard, you can build model ships according to your own wishes at any time.

Of course, since you have bought a shipyard, you must make the shipyard itself profitable.

So, the shipyard could be allowed to resume the business of manufacturing cruise ships.

If the core technology is not up to standard, then spend money to acquire some technology, talents, and so on.

Anyway, when the time comes, will the reputation rise, are you still afraid that you won't be able to receive orders?

Needless to say, as long as the Titanic is filmed and released worldwide, it can meet its expectations, then the income from this movie is enough for this shipyard to continue to maintain for a long time. The closure of the shipyard is out of the question.

In addition, Huang Bai also thought of some of the information he had found earlier.

In this other world, there is indeed a Titanic, and similar events have happened. And the original shipyard, the one that built the Titanic, has long since closed down. However, the original shipyard is now divided into several small shipyards, and Huang Bai feels that he can actually buy them all, and then make out the descendants of the original Titanic shipyard, and let them be responsible for rebuilding a luxury cruise ship that is exactly the same as the original Titanic.

In this way, it is sure to cause a wave of interest on the Titanic in England.

To make this film, there is indeed something that needs to be done at this time. We have to make the people of this world start to pay attention to Titanic.

Soon, Huang Bai negotiated with Su Dongcheng.

Everyone left satisfied.

As for the acquisition of William Vitesse's shipyard, it was left to Longxing Bank to operate.

When the time comes, Su Dongcheng will send someone to sign a purchase agency contract for himself, and he will be able to discuss the specific acquisition with Huang Yafu, the ship king in Southeast Asia.

As for Zhang Gang, he may be the guy in charge of running errands.

For the time being, Cork doesn't have any projects to work with him.

However, this cooperation with Su Dongcheng is equivalent to cooperation with him, and they are all from Longxing Bank. Now, Zhang Gang can be said to be Su Dongcheng's henchman.

Su Dongcheng also invited Huang Bai before leaving, if he had time, he wanted to take Huang Bai to meet a few friends.

However, Cork really doesn't have time now.

Huang Bai knew that the friends he wanted to take him to meet should be like Mu Hongmian took him to the club villa, so he wanted to meet some real rich people.

It's just that the personal circle is different, and the rich people you know are also different.

In addition, it should also be a community of interests, if you know them and join them, there should be a lot more ways to go in the future, and there will be a lot more investment projects.

Rich people are basically like this, when they make money, they will expand their business territory, and whatever can make money, they want to plug in.

However, if you are not in a circle, or do not have friends in this circle, then rashly set foot in a certain industry, then you may be excluded or even blocked by your peers.

As far as Wei Xiang is concerned, his family is in the hotel industry, and if a rich man suddenly appears to enter the hotel industry to compete with him, he will definitely reject it, and he will definitely block it if he has the opportunity.

Therefore, if you have friends to support you, you can have a lot less trouble.
