315, Acquisition of Happy Fritters!

"Sit and sit, don't be inhibited!"

"It's just a casual conversation."

Seeing that Shen Yun and the four of them were standing in the office, Chen Wenhan immediately pointed to the sofa in the reception area with a smile.

Several people glanced at each other, and then sat down one after another, but their expressions were more serious, after all, a few people were only eighteen-line small transparent, and Chen Wenhan was a king-level creator, and this identity alone was above the first line, and he could be on an equal footing with the king and the queen of heaven, or even have a higher status.

After all, not all king-level creators have the strength to bring out the king and queen!

Zhang Xiaomei made tea, and Chen Wenhan poured a cup for the four of them.

"Drink tea, talk while drinking."

Chen Wenhan himself picked up the teacup and took a sip gently.

Seeing this, the four of them also picked up their teacups, but Chen Wenhan could see that several people were still in a nervous mood.

"I don't eat people!"

"As for that?" Chen Wenhan put down the teacup and joked with a smile.

"Teacher Chen, with all due respect, we are all a little confused, you are a music creator, we are acting in dramas, this is not on the same channel."

Shen Yun opened his mouth and said, which can be regarded as asking the doubts in his heart.

Hearing this, the eyes of the other three also fell on Chen Wenhan, which was their common confusion.

"I thought it was interesting to watch your sketch just now."

"Whose notebook?"

At present, the intersection between Chen Wenhan and several people is only the sketch of Fang Cai, so it must be based on this sketch.

"The screenwriter of our group, Peng Fei." Shen Yunhui.

Chen Wenhan nodded slightly: "The book is quite interesting, but unfortunately, they don't think it's good." ”

Hearing this, Shen Yun and the four of them subconsciously frowned, the audit results would not be notified on the spot, so they didn't know if the sketch just now could pass the review, but if Chen Wenhan said so, the probability of passing the review was obviously very low.

"Probability."

Chen Wenhan didn't say anything too much, and said: "Only I think it's not bad, but I'm the person in charge of singing and dancing programs, and I'm just going to observe today, so my opinion is useless." ”

Hearing this, the four of them frowned even tighter.

"That's it."

Shen Yun muttered depressedly.

"Do you usually only perform dramas?"

Chen Wenhan didn't continue to talk about the sketch, but led the topic to the Happy Fritters Repertory Troupe.

"Pretty much, we occasionally go to film and television dramas to play some cameo roles." Shen Yunhui, obviously he should usually be the person who talks about happy fritters.

"What's the attendance rate for your plays?"

"It's good."

Shen Yun is not a fool of himself, the entertainment industry is very developed at the moment, and related industries are showing a posture of a hundred flowers blooming.

The Happy Fritters Drama Troupe is a rising star in the drama circle, and the ticket sales are not bad, generally with an attendance rate of seven or eighty percent, and it is precisely because they have accumulated some reputation in the drama circle that they will receive an invitation from the program group of this year's Spring Festival Gala.

"I'd better get straight to the point!"

"Mahjong entertainment, have you heard of it?"

After a general understanding of the situation of happy fritters, Chen Wenhan began to cut to the chase.

"Of course I know, Mr. Chen's company!"

"There are so many well-known singers."

Although the scale of mahjong entertainment is not large, it is still very famous in the circle at the moment.

"That's right, I'm going to enter the film and television industry, so I'm very interested in your happy fritters."

"Who is the owner of your happy fritters?"

"I'm the majority shareholder."

Shen Yun said directly.

"I want to buy or buy shares, can you talk about it?" Chen Wenhan directly said his thoughts.

"Acquisition??"

Shen Yun's pupils widened subconsciously, a little surprised, and the rest of the people also showed surprise on their faces, they didn't expect Chen Wenhan to mean this.

However, Shen Yun quickly calmed down, because Chen Wenhan was not the first person to talk to him about buying shares or buying happy fritters, not long ago, there was a leading troupe in the drama industry that wanted to buy them, but the other party's price was too low, and the other party did not agree to several conditions proposed by Shen Yun, so the matter was over.

At present, although Happy Fritters are well-known in the industry, they are still in a state of loss, because they are not famous, their drama ticket prices cannot go up, the price of each performance is 30~180 This range, an average ticket price of about 100 yuan, each performance can sell four or five hundred tickets, and the income is forty or fifty thousand, but there is not much left in addition to venue fees and labor costs.

In order to maintain the normal operation of the troupe, the annual hard expenditure will be more than one million, of which staff salaries and rent are the majority.

Therefore, as a major shareholder, Shen Yun is losing money every year, and if there is a suitable financier who can meet their demands, he is willing to sell the troupe or sell most of the shares.

"Mr. Chen, let me first tell you about the composition of the shares of our troupe, I own 70% of the shares, and the three of them each account for 10%, so this matter can be discussed now."

"It's just that whether it is an acquisition or a shareholding, there are two prerequisites on my side, if Mr. Chen can agree to these two conditions, let's talk about it!"

"Well, you say."

Chen Wenhan picked up the teacup and listened quietly while drinking tea.

Shen Yun first took a deep breath, and then exchanged glances with the other three before speaking: "The first condition is that after being acquired, all the existing personnel of the repertory troupe must be retained. ”

"How many people are there in the repertory troupe now?"

Chen Wenhan asked casually.

"There are 31 people in total, 16 actors, 15 directors, screenwriters and staff of Fuhuadao."

"That's fine."

Chen Wenhan nodded, and didn't even ask about the salaries of the staff or anything, and there is no drama troupe under Mahjong Entertainment, all the staff can be retained, otherwise they will have to be rehired.

"The second condition is that we must have the right to make our own decisions, what work to take, what work not to take, we say what we say, do not accept any form of unspoken rules, do not participate in any business dinners, in addition, there must be at least one drama performance every month, no less than twelve times a year."

Shen Yun put forward the second condition with a serious face.

Then the eyes of him and Ma Ruiya all fell on Chen Wenhan's face, wanting to see how he reacted.

When we talked about acquisitions before, this second clause was unacceptable to the other party.

Chen Wenhan didn't have much expression change on his face, took a sip of tea slowly, and then asked, "What is your valuation of happy fritters?" ”

The four people who heard this question looked at each other again, because they had talked about the acquisition before, so they also had a psychological price.

"Twenty million."

Shen Yun took a deep breath and quoted the price.

But it can be seen from his state that he is very bottomless in his heart, after all, Happy Fritters is still in a state of loss.

However, Chen Wenhan also said that it is valuation, and the valuation of start-up companies is usually high, especially for the Internet, entertainment and other physical companies.

"Twenty million!"

Chen Wenhan repeated Shen Yun's offer, with a playful smile on his face.

It's cheap!

Shen Yun mustered up the courage to dare to report 20 million.

You must know that the valuation of another space-time twist has exceeded 5 billion!

Although the situation of the two time and space is different, Chen Wenhan watched Shen Yun and Ma Ruiya's performances, and his acting skills are completely fine, and he is still familiar with the taste.

And in fact, their script is also good, very in line with the tastes of young people, but Jiang Jing and Zhu Yaohua are more rigid in their thinking, and they are both 130 years old together, and their ability to accept new things is a little worse.

However, this is enough to prove that the ability of the creative team behind them is passable.

"Mr. Chen, you may think that our valuation is slightly higher, I have counted all the more than 20 original scripts of Happy Fritters, and the value of these copyrights alone is actually very close to the valuation."

Shen Yun thought that the reason why Chen Wenhan laughed was because his offer was too high, so he quickly explained.

"How about I invest 20 million and buy out the shares in your hands?"

To the surprise of Shen Yun and the others, Chen Wenhan didn't even return the counteroffer.

"This"

The four of them looked at each other, all confused.

Shen Yunbao's price is 20 million, not 2 million, Chen Wenhan agreed without even blinking an eye.

"But about your second condition, I can't fully agree, the second half is no problem, our mahjong entertainment artists focus on not accepting any form of unspoken rules, at least twelve dramas a year is no problem, I'm afraid you won't have time in the future"

"As for absolute decision-making power, that's unrealistic, but I can promise that I will never let you take on some jobs that you don't want to take, and I will consult with you before taking any job."

Just when a few people were stunned, Chen Wenhan spoke again.

It is impossible to give up decision-making power, God knows if the happy fritters of this time and space can replicate the twist of another time and space, so Chen Wenhan must be at the helm himself, and he doesn't care too much about other details.

Especially for the matter of twelve dramas a year, once they become popular, it would be good to be able to perform one or two shows a year, and when the time comes, there is no need for Chen Wenhan to say, they themselves are probably unwilling to act.

"Teacher Chen, are you serious?"

All this is too dreamy for Shen Yun and the four of them, one moment they learned that the show may be killed, and the next moment Chen Wenhan is going to buy their happy fritters!

"Do you think I'm joking?"

Chen Wenhan spread his hands: "Otherwise, there is a conference room next to it, you can go over to discuss it, or go back to discuss." ”

Shen Yun and the four exchanged glances, and then went down to the conference room next to them under the guidance of Zhang Xiaomei.

After Zhang Xiaomei left, the faces of the four people who had been suppressing their emotions suddenly showed excited looks.

"Brother Yun, do you think what Teacher Chen said is true?"

"That's 20 million! According to our shareholding ratio, wouldn't I be able to cash out two million directly! ”

Ai Guoqiang said excitedly.

"We are only 20 million, and Brother Yun is directly a multimillionaire!"

"Fourteen million, you can't make so much money from acting in a lifetime of dramas!" I often feel free to let out a sigh of emotion with my eyes shining.

At this time, Shen Yun is also very uneasy, he holds 70% of the shares of Happy Fritters, and if he sells them all to Chen Wenhan, he can directly get 14 million, and if he goes to a second-tier city, he can lie down.

Of course, this is not the most important thing, the most important thing is that he can buy a house in the capital.

Just two months ago, his girlfriend of six years had just broken up with him, and a large part of the reason was that the other party couldn't see hope in him and didn't want to continue to spend it.

If Shen Yun cashed out 14 million, it would be a different situation!

"Ruiya, what do you think?"

Shen Yun looked at Ma Ruiya, who had not spoken.

The latter didn't want Ai Guoqiang and Chang Zizi to be as excited, and they have been pondering since entering the conference room.

"I'm wondering what he wants to do with 20 million to buy our troupe?"

"Although we have always been full of confidence, the reality is that the ticket price of the performance cannot go up, the troupe is losing money every year, and it is not well-known, is it really just fancy our potential?"

"To be honest, I don't think we still have the potential to be worth 20 million!"

Marrya belongs to the more cautious kind of character, and whenever she encounters something, she always asks why?

As the saying goes, there must be a demon when things go wrong, and today this thing is enough for demons!

"Rui Ya, I think you're thinking a little too much, what do you care about him!"

"What a great opportunity, not only can you cash in, but you can also catch the line of Mr. Chen, maybe Happy Fritters will get better and better in the future, after all, he has become popular with so many newcomers!"

Ai Guoqiang's attitude has been clear.

"Although I am the largest shareholder, it is a matter of the interests of each of us and the future development of the troupe, so let's vote!"

Shen Yun, as the speaker and major shareholder, spoke.

"I agree to sell the shares!"

Ai Guoqiang, who has already made his attitude clear, was the first to raise his hand.

"I agree."

Chang Zizi also agreed.

"I'm a little uncertain," Marrya muttered quietly, not saying anything right away.

Shen Yun cleared his throat and said: "I think so, we can sell some of the shares in our hands, after all, Happy Fritters were founded by us, and they will completely become someone else's all of a sudden, I am a little reluctant." ”

"Brother Yun, how many shares are you going to keep?"

Ai Guoqiang immediately asked.

"I think so, if I keep 36 percent of the shares, and each of you keeps 5 percent, we still have control over the troupe."

Shen Yun said.

"Mr. Chen won't agree, I just want to buy all the shares for 20 million, if it is 10 million to buy part of the shares, and I don't have the control of the troupe, if it were me, I wouldn't agree."

Ai Guoqiang shook his head, he felt that Shen Yun's idea was not quite realistic.

"If this is the way of shareholding, it is equivalent to an investor in our troupe, which is probably a bit difficult." Chang Zizi is also not very optimistic about the distribution method proposed by Shen Yun.

"I'll talk to him."

"You're waiting for my news!"

Shen Yun has feelings for happy fritters after all, and he got up and went to Chen Wenhan's office to say what he thought.

As Ai Guoqiang analyzed, Chen Wenhan decisively refused, since he wanted to invest in the acquisition, he must get control of the troupe, so Chen Wenhan's bottom line is to acquire 51% of the shares.

"Brother Yun, let it go, it's quite tiring to be the boss!"

After Shen Yun returned to the conference room, Ai Guoqiang spoke out to persuade him.

"In fact, as long as we can continue to stay in Happy Fritters and continue to do what we like, it doesn't matter whether we have shares or not, anyway, the contract will indicate that the actors of Happy Fritters must be fully accepted." Chang Zizi said.

"Forget it, the money in hand is real!"

"Isn't it just to make money that we work hard to run a troupe!" Mariya seemed to have figured it out, and suddenly spoke.

Seeing that the three of them had this attitude, Shen Yun closed his eyes and thought for a while, and when he opened his eyes, his face showed a look of determination: "Listen to you, it's good to be a shopkeeper!" ”

The four of them discussed it again, and finally made a decision to sell 65% of the shares, Shen Yun kept 20%, and the other three each kept 5%!

After receiving this feedback, Chen Wenhan immediately agreed, and then immediately asked Zhang Xiaomei to print four copies of the contract and add the conditions they proposed to the terms of the contract.

After that, he signed a share transfer agreement with the four of them with a quick knife to cut through the mess!

was afraid that they would regret it, and even Chen Wenhan immediately asked people to transfer money to them.

Thirteen million is just a "drizzle" for Chen Wenhan now, after all, he just earned more than 100 million from Li Zizi's big dog!
