Chapter 320 Financing Negotiations
On May 20th, Tang Huan officially responded to Jiangsu and Zhejiang Entertainment Investment Company on behalf of the company and accepted its offer, and then Meng Feihan, general manager of Jiangsu and Zhejiang Entertainment Investment, immediately flew to Beijing to negotiate with Tang Huan on the details of capital injection.
On May 22, after two days of negotiations, the two sides reached an agreement on various details, the main solution was the share gift that Tang Huan had promised to Meng Wen, and the investment representative of Jiangsu and Zhejiang Entertainment wanted to let Tang Huan bear this part of the donated shares alone, and keep his shareholding ratio unchanged.
Tang Huan naturally disagreed, and proposed to share this part of the shares equally. According to the shareholding ratio of the two parties, Tianxing Entertainment Group accounts for ninety percent, and Jiangsu and Zhejiang Entertainment Investment accounts for one percent, so this is about to be because of the 10% shares given to Meng Wen by "Diao Silk Man", 9% will be transferred by Tianxing Entertainment, and 1% will be transferred by Jiangsu and Zhejiang Entertainment Investment.
Although it seems that this 1% is not much, according to the valuation of 4 billion on the website, this is also 40 million, and this is only the first gift. If Meng Wen is filming a few more online dramas, he will easily give 100 million yuan to Meng Wen for nothing, and Jiangsu and Zhejiang Entertainment Investment will not want to be wronged.
However, at Tang Huan's insistence, Jiangsu and Zhejiang Entertainment Investment finally agreed to this plan. Because Tang Huan said a word, if it weren't for Meng Wen, would you still invest in my website?
Although at first glance, Meng Wen received 10% of the shares because of an online drama, which is 400 million, people's first reaction is definitely not worth it. But Tang Huan will never think so, Tang Huan knows that there is a gift to gain, this website because of Meng Wen's new online drama, the valuation of this website has increased rapidly from less than one billion to 4 billion, Meng Wen has single-handedly made the company appreciate by 3 billion, so it is not too much to reward 400 million.
This time, you gave Meng Wen 400 million in cash, but you gained 3 billion. You will definitely want to continue to send money to Meng Wen in the future, and you have to beg to send money to Meng Wen, spending 400 million to earn 3 billion good deeds, who will refuse?
However, although Jiangsu and Zhejiang Entertainment Investment agreed with Tang Huan's proportional gift plan, Meng Feihan, general manager of Jiangsu and Zhejiang Entertainment Investment, also put forward a condition, that is, this time "Diao Silk Man" can be given away according to the previous promise, but the future gift plan must be changed, and Tang Huan's incentive plan is simply a free share.
Even Meng Feihan maliciously guessed that the incentive plan formulated by Tang Huan, if Tang Huan conspired with Meng Wen, he could completely eat the shares he had worked so hard to buy. Because Meng Wen has to give away a part of his own money every time he shoots an online drama, in the long run, how much can he leave after giving away this 10% of his shares.
As for Tang Huan, although it seems that he will give away more on the surface, who knows if Meng Wen will connect with Tang Huan behind his back, and return Tang Huan's shares by guò or other means, just to hack his own shares.
Of course, this speculation is only a guess, and Meng Feihan did not say it explicitly. And Meng Feihan believes that Tang Huan will not be stupid enough to do this, otherwise there will definitely be no one to cooperate with Tang Huan next time. But leaving such an obvious loophole is also a risk, who can predict what will happen in the future, what if Tang Huan does this?
Tang Huan also knew that what Meng Feihan said was reasonable. Previously, Tang Huan promised Meng Wen that as long as Meng Wen made an online drama with two or three billion views, he would give Meng Wen one percent of the shares, and if he made an online drama with more than one billion views, he would give Meng Wen ten percent of the shares. At that time, Tang Huan's request must not be considered low.
At that time, the online drama had more than 300 million hits, and Meng Wen's "Waste Wood Brothers", and Tang Huan didn't dare to think that the online drama could exceed one billion. And one percent of the shares are only 3 million, which is equivalent to the advertising fee of Meng Wen's online drama, and Tang Huan is also willing to do it.
But it's only been half a year, but the industry shape of online dramas has undergone earth-shaking changes, online dramas have been clicked three or four billion now, and now I look at it, it's very light, Kuying "Vertical and Horizontal Workplace" has now had more than 800 million hits, and this will immediately go to one billion, although the growth rate has been obviously weak by now, but over one billion has basically been nine out of ten.
It can be said that the online drama with three or four billion hits is no longer so big for the promotion of the website, so that Tang Huan also took out one percent of the shares, that is, 400 million in cash, Tang Huan is indeed a little distressed. Although Tang Huan thinks that there is a give-and-take, but this kind of online drama with three or four hundred million clicks is purely a give-up, and there is not much to get. If the partner was not Meng Wen, maybe Tang Huan would have regretted it a long time ago. With the friendship between Meng Wen and Tang Huan, Tang Huan can't do this kind of behavior of breaking his word and getting fat.
Although he knew that what Meng Feihan said was reasonable, Tang Huan still fought for a long time in response to Meng Feihan's initiative to modify the conditions, mainly because Tang Huan was afraid that Meng Wen would misunderstand him. After all, I had already agreed before, and now I suddenly want to regret it, which is really unreasonable.
But this time Meng Feihan is determined not to regress, Tang Huan can give up his interests because of friendship, Meng Feihan has no friendship with Meng Wen, so naturally he will not do this loss-making business.
Seeing that the cooperation was deadlocked because of this matter, Meng Feihan proposed to invite the company's second shareholder to the scene and wanted to hear Meng Wen's thoughts. In the two days that Meng Feihan came to Beijing City, Meng Wen, the second shareholder, began to show up, and never showed up again.
In the end, Tang Huan had no choice but to invite Meng Wen to the negotiation site, Meng Wen listened to Meng Feihan's request, pondered for a while, did not say yes, nor did he say no, but said to Meng Feihan: "What Mr. Meng said makes sense, I want to listen to the gift conditions given by Mr. Meng." ”
In fact, Meng Wen also felt that it was a little inappropriate for him to accept the shares given by Tang Huan in this way, like "Diao Silk Man" did contribute to the website every day, and he deserved to take 10% of the shares, but before Tang Huan proposed to give away a little share for two or three hundred million clicks, it seems that it is indeed a lot.
Because Meng Wen is confident that "Diao Silk Man" will increase to more than one billion hits this time, Meng Wen has never mentioned similar ideas to Tang Huan. Meng Wen was thinking about when he would wait for the clicks on the online drama he filmed to be less than one billion, and then he would refuse the one percent of the dry shares proposed by Tang Huan. But now that Meng Feihan took the initiative, Meng Wen was also happy to cooperate.
Meng Feihan heard Meng Wen ask rhetorically, and immediately replied: "I think so, now Long Shao is also a shareholder of the company, and he must also know the importance of shares for a company. But now that the website is on the right track, with our first capital injection, there will inevitably be a second and third capital injection in the future, and I think future shareholders don't want their hard-earned shares to be given away casually. ”
Meng Wen heard Meng Feihan's big pile of nonsense, and he already realized what Meng Feihan wanted to say, especially the last sentence, which was obvious. Meng Wen unceremoniously interrupted Meng Feihan's conversation and said, "Mr. Meng, let's just talk about the conditions, I don't know much about your business affairs." ”
Meng Feihan was interrupted by Meng Wen like this, and there was a moment of consternation on his face, but he quickly recovered and said, "It seems that Long Shao is an urgent person, okay, then I'll just say it." The format of online dramas now is very different from half a year ago. In the past, two or three hundred million clicks on an online drama belonged to a divine drama, but now, it seems that "Vertical and Horizontal Workplace" in Cool Movie will soon be one billion, and they don't dare to call themselves divine dramas. Therefore, now that the audience acceptance of online dramas is high, the corresponding clicks are easier to increase. ”
Meng Wen was a little speechless when he saw Meng Feihan saying it again, and at the same time, Meng Wen also knew in his heart that the more Meng Feihan didn't know what to say, the more he made this big pile of foreshadowing to make himself mentally prepared, the more it showed that the conditions proposed by Meng Feihan were more harsh. Meng Wen, who was still thinking about cooperating with Meng Feihan, was getting weaker and weaker.
Meng Wen interrupted Meng Feihan's conversation again, and said in a slightly stern tone: "I'm sorry, Mr. Meng still has to interrupt you, just now you said that the cool movie "Vertical and Horizontal Workplace" did not dare to call itself a divine drama, I need to add, Cool Shadow did not dare to call itself a divine drama, to be precise, Cool Shadow publicly said that his "Vertical and Horizontal Workplace" was a divine drama, but after my online drama was broadcast, it was compared. So the example you gave doesn't tell us anything.
As for the clicks that Mr. Meng said are easier to get, I don't know how easy it is for Mr. Meng to say, although there are many online dramas with more than 100 million clicks now. But in addition to the online dramas I filmed and "Across the Workplace" that Kuying spent tens of millions to make, it seems that there are no other online dramas that can exceed three or four hundred million views.
I think you invited me to the scene, it won't be like discussing this topic, or I hope that Mr. Meng will have something to say, directly say the conditions, how many shares you want to click on and give me as many shares, just say it directly. ”
Meng Feihan was choked by Meng Wen at this moment, and Tang Huan next to him saw Meng Feihan and Meng Wen secretly fighting each other, and he already had a hint of foreboding in his heart.
was interrupted by Meng Wen twice in a row, Meng Feihan couldn't help but feel a little angry in his heart, but as a position investor, Meng Feihan still forced himself to calm down, calm himself down, and said directly: "Okay, then I'll say it directly." My condition is what Mr. Tang promised before, the decision to click on two or three hundred million to give one percent of the shares is invalid, and we can change it to a cash reward of one million, not only for Long Shaoyou, but also for all online dramas, after all, Long Shao's energy is limited, I think it is impossible to rely on Long Shao alone to shoot online dramas every day in the future, right?"
