Chapter 50: A Cake with Arsenic
"That's what he said?" Mr. Huanrui frowned slightly and looked at Jia Shilei.
Don't look at Xu Jia, he can't believe it, in fact, even Jia Shilei in front of him, he doesn't particularly trust it.
Especially when it comes to investing in such a big thing as "Taiping Wheel", you can't be too careful.
"Seriously, Xu Jia doesn't want anything, just the copyright of "Notes on Tomb Robbery". Jia Shilei said.
"No, according to rumors, that kid can be so kind?"
Mr. Huanrui expressed the same doubts as Jia Shilei at the beginning.
"What he means is for Yang Mi's sake, in fact, I think it should be afraid of forcing us too quickly, after all, "Notes on Tomb Robbery" is about to be launched, if something really goes wrong, Jiaxing is also in a lot of trouble." Jia Shilei said.
Mr. Huanrui nodded, which made sense, and asked instead, "Then what do you think of this project?" ”
"I think this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for us to enter the film industry, director Wu Yusen's works, coupled with the all-star lineup across the Taiwan Strait and three places, it doesn't look like losing money, not to mention that such a big production can't lose much even if it loses, on the contrary, it can create momentum for us."
Don't look at Jia Shilei and feel that something is wrong in his heart, but in the face of the boss's inquiry, he immediately changed his tricks and touted it.
In fact, this is indeed the case, so many companies and celebrities want to participate in the big production.
It is to look at the aura and effect brought by major productions.
As soon as this thing shines on the company's resume, others have to be impressed.
If anyone else, there will not be much difference from Jia Shilei's evaluation.
It's a pity, who offended them was Xu Jia......
Before the release of "Taiping Wheel", no one would have thought that this project would become the most loss-making film of China Entertainment in the past two decades.
It can be said that if you buy it, you will lose it and vomit blood.
"There are a lot of involved in this project, have you checked it carefully?" Mr. Huanrui hesitated.
"I've checked it below, Pony Galloping is a shortage of funds, and it is urgent to exchange for cash, even if we don't buy it, the people of Huayi are preparing to grab it, and they specially found someone to evaluate the crew of "Taiping Wheel", and there is no risk in the accounts." Jia Shilei said.
Hearing Jia Shilei's analysis, Mr. Huanrui finally made up his mind.
"Okay, we'll take over this project, but I don't need you to do the work, I'll let someone else take over, just take advantage of this time for you to take a good rest."
When the front foot ran out, the back foot Huanrui boss withdrew Jia Shilei back.
Jia Shilei sneered in his heart, he had long expected that there would be a day when the donkey would be unloaded.
He simply had an objection, and this grievance was naturally not a problem.
Soon.
The cooperation between Huanrui and Pony Galloping has come to an end.
With 120 million in cash, Huanrui galloped to the pony and won the right to invest in "Taiping Wheel".
This move also alarmed the circle.
In addition to scolding the pony galloping for quick success, it is to praise Huanrui's good luck.
So much so that Jia Shilei felt that he was too sensitive and suspected that Xu Jia was wrong......
But at the same time, a small thing, did not alarm others.
That is the film and television adaptation right of "Notes on Tomb Robbery", which was leased to Jiaxing by Huanrui for free.
It shows that Mr. Huanrui still has a hand, as long as he is willing, there will be a chance to counter Jiaxing in the future.
If a discerning person sees this, I am afraid that he will be tired of the resale of the income rights of "Taiping Wheel".
Jingle bells!
"Hey."
Xu Jia picked up the phone.
"Mr. Xu, I'm Li Ming of the pony galloping, thank you so much for your help, otherwise this time bomb might explode in our hands." Li Ming said gratefully.
The investment of 400 million in "Taiping Wheel" accounted for 80 million for Pony Galloping.
If it weren't for Xu Jia, when the 80 million was released, it would be equivalent to being a stray and couldn't even hear the sound.
Now, the bomb is in Huanrui's hands.
It's just that there is no reminder from Xu Jia, but I am afraid of the explosion.
"Hehe, it's just a win-win situation for you and me, I don't need to thank you, I also want to thank Mr. Li for his trust and cooperation with me, otherwise Huanrui will not be so easy to get set." Xu Jia said with a smile.
For him, the film and television adaptation rights of "Tomb Robbery Notes" have been obtained, and the purpose has been achieved.
As for tightening the capital chain of Huanrui until it collapses, that is, there are dates and no dates.
Li Ming felt a faint chill in his heart, as an insider.
At this time, standing on the outside, I reminisced, if it was him, I was afraid that in the face of such a trap, he would also end up the same as Huanrui.
"I won't say anything superfluous, and in the future, wherever there is a place that can use our pony galloping, just open your mouth." He didn't want to have too much to do with Xu Jia, so he just owed a favor.
After all, in the face of a thoughtful guy like Xu Jia, it is better not to be an enemy.
"There is really such a thing, "Notes on Tomb Robbery" is about to be launched, and I will borrow your promotional resources at that time, is it convenient?" Xu Jia said.
He doesn't have much to ask for about the pony galloping, after all, most of the latter's copyrights are not looked down on by Xu Jia.
On the contrary, it is advertising inventory, which is a bit interesting.
After all, the predecessor of Pony Galloping was called Beijing New Remington Advertising Co., Ltd., but it started with advertising and began to do it in 94, which is the same as Huayi.
It's just that Huayi later paid more attention to artist management in addition to film and television production.
On the other hand, the pony galloping, but after filming "The Sky of History" in 04, he was unbeatable in film and television production.
Moreover, the advertising business has not stopped, and it is one of the few large-scale comprehensive advertising agencies in China.
In other words, in the advertising industry, Pony Galloping has a higher status than the film and television industry.
It would be a waste to put such a propaganda resource without it.
"Notes on Tomb Robbery" has a ladder contract, and the resources that Xu Jia stacks up will be paid for by Penguin Video in the end.
Anyway, the galloping favor of the pony, Xu Jia thinks that it will be difficult to use it in the future.
It's better to take advantage of this opportunity to cash in.
"Cheng, this matter is easy to say, we will fully cooperate."
Li Ming was surprised at the same time, but also relieved, it would be great to be able to use advertising resources to repay favors.
From another point of view, Xu Jia also lost 80 million yuan and made a net profit of 120 million, 200 million inside and out.
Thinking of this, Li Ming even felt a little sorry for Xu Jia.
"Then it's okay, and then before the release of "Taiping Wheel", you'd better keep your mouth shut, don't let Huanrui notice it, otherwise it's all trouble." Xu Jia admonished.
He didn't want to come to the end and fall short.
The plan to deal with Huanrui cannot end here, "Taiping Wheel" is just the first step, and there are still a few projects in Xu Jia's impression waiting to be fed to Huanrui's mouth.
Those were cakes with arsenic.
