Chapter 231 Mobilizing Mr. Yang’s Enthusiasm with High Intensity
Yang Ruoqian made up his mind that whatever the other party wanted to do must be rejected.
cooperate? Even if you are beaten to death, there will be no cooperation!
"Oh, they're from Chengyu headquarters." Yang Ruoqian said in a friendly tone, "Did they say why they met me?"
The girl at the front desk replied: "He said his name is Cheng Fang and that he is not meeting you for business. He just wants to treat you to a meal."
It's not official business...
As long as it's not official business, that's fine.
If a person of this level wants to treat someone to dinner, the restaurant they go to will definitely not be bad.
It just so happens that Yang Ruoqian can have a free meal.
Yang Ruoqian immediately agreed: "No problem, just ask him about his specific time schedule and let the administrative department arrange it according to the situation."
"Okay, Mr. Yang, do you have anything else to tell Cheng Fang?"
"That's all for now." Yang Ruoqian thought for a while and replied.
Although you can roughly guess Cheng Fang's identity from his name, the two of them can be said to be complete strangers.
What's there to talk about?
After hanging up the phone, within a few minutes, the employee in charge of arrangements in the administrative department sent me a message.
"Mr. Yang, the arrangement has been made. The other party wants to invite you to have dinner at your favorite Yi restaurant at six o'clock in the afternoon. Is it convenient for you?"
One can imagine Yang Ruoqian's mood when he saw this message.
No, what is my favorite?
Are the people from Chengyu Group deliberately targeting me?
I am familiar with the media, and even if I go to a rare restaurant for dinner, why do people from the group headquarters do this? !
Get out now, you are not welcome in my restaurant!
Taking two deep breaths to relieve his sadness and anger, Yang Ruoqian gritted his teeth and sent a reply: "Okay, at this time and place, see you there or not."
…
At six o'clock in the afternoon, Yang Ruoqian arrived at the restaurant on time, only three minutes early.
Seeing that the restaurant was crowded with people and it was difficult to even move, Mr. Yang, who had just made 270 million in blood, couldn't help but sigh.
The entire three floors of the restaurant were packed, the lobby and private rooms were all full, and there were many customers queuing up outside to get a number.
Yang Ruoqian tried to go inside several times, but people outside the restaurant wanted to go in, but people inside didn't come out. As a result, he was blocked at the door, unable to get in or get out.
Yang Ruoqian had actually expected this situation in the restaurant.
Since powerful singers Wei Ling and Zeng Yi left the stage of "The Great Sing of the Motherland" early due to various off-site factors, the restaurant where they started has become popular.
As long as the business is simply more popular, after all, Yang Ruoqian doesn't engage in franchising, how much money can he make just by doing catering?
There is a limit to the number of customers a store can accept in a day. As long as it does not expand, no matter how many people come, the restaurant can only accommodate a part of them.
This is also the reason why Yang Ruoqian has always rejected requests for restaurant expansion.
But the problem is that Yang Ruoqian's miscalculation is that the main crowd attracted by Wei Ling and Zeng Yi's songs is not trendy young people.
But a large part of middle-aged people.
These middle-aged people look ordinary, but when they take action, they realize what it means to be a hidden rich man.
It's true that we can only accommodate a limited number of guests, but the consumption level of these guests is too high. They often open two bottles of wine and serve all the dishes except these two. It's unbearable!
What's even more frightening is that after participating in the variety show, these two singers, who were already showing signs of becoming popular, went back to Jinhae and performed an unexpected concert in a restaurant.
At the same time, he also announced that he would perform at restaurants from time to time without prior notice.
After this sentence, it was like throwing a bomb into a cesspool.
Many people who want to try their luck and happen to want to go out to a restaurant, don't they regard the restaurant with rare characters as their first choice?
Yang Ruoqian in the crowd was very sad.
When the restaurant first changed, the days when the crowds were sparse and the atmosphere was elegant and quiet are gone forever.
At that time, such a large restaurant basically only served Yang Ruoqian, and he could do whatever he wanted.
Even the shop assistants who are so busy will serve him with the most impeccable attitude.
By the way, it can still lose money every quarter... This is a perfect link in the ecological chain of Kuaiguang Group.
It's a pity that one step was wrong and the other was wrong.
It has developed to this day, and it is so difficult for me to even enter the lobby...
"Oh, forget it... From now on, let's go to eat around Qianda Plaza. I will never come to this restaurant with an unusual word again."
Anyway, my extremely cool noble black gold card can be used in any industry.
Changing restaurants is no big deal.
Yang Ruoqian squeezed out of the crowd and was about to call the person in charge of the restaurant to let him in through the employee passage. Suddenly, a busy receptionist saw him, quickly put down what he was doing, and trotted over to Yang Ruoqian's side.
"Mr. Yang, please come inside, the room is all ready!"
Because the restaurant is so popular, in order to meet the group's possible sudden needs, the restaurant has set aside a special room that never accepts outsiders.
This room will only be activated if a group employee makes a reservation through the group's internal process, or if Yang Ruoqian comes to visit in person.
Even though most of this room is vacant, the restaurant is still cleaned every day with the most serious attitude.
To ensure that people in the group can enter the room as soon as they arrive at the restaurant, and can do business as soon as they enter the room.
Yang Ruoqian glanced at his phone, shook his head and said, "Just take me to Qingtai's private room. Others have already booked the room."
Since Cheng Fang decided first and then made his decision, and he chose the restaurant on his own initiative, he could only regret missing the opportunity to enjoy the top-notch private room.
The receptionist nodded immediately and said, "Okay, Mr. Yang, come with me and I'll take you through the employee passage."
At this time, the store manager who had been notified also came out, "escorted" Yang Ruoqian out of the crowd, and took him into the Qingtai private room on the second floor of the restaurant.
Standing in the room was a man holding a wine glass and wearing various expensive fashion brands. He looks young and unruly, but he has a strong aura.
It's quite similar to Cheng Fei's aura.
Sure enough, it’s not like a family doesn’t come into the same house...
"Mr. Yang, I have admired you for a long time!" Cheng Fang picked up the wine glass and after finishing his sentence, he raised his head and drank the drink without waiting for Yang Ruoqian to react.
"I'll do it first as a courtesy!"
Yang Ruoqian looked at the expensive bottle of foreign wine that was specially designed for decoration, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.
This bottle of wine was nothing to Cheng Fang, but it did great harm to Yang Ruoqian.
"There's no need to be polite." Yang Ruoqian sat down with a smile, "I wonder what Mr. Cheng wants from me?"
After saying this, Yang Ruoqian felt a little strange again.
After all, he mostly uses "Mr. Cheng" when he calls Cheng Fei.
It's quite interesting to have two CEOs at once.
Cheng Fang raised his wine glass casually, sat on a chair, and pointed at the menu: "Does Mr. Yang have any taboos?"
Yang Ruoqian was by no means a person who sat back and watched others pretend to be in front of him. He immediately responded with the same casual smile: "Don't worry, the things I avoid will not appear on the menu."
Cheng Fang was stunned, then laughed and said, "I didn't expect... Yang is always such a humorous person. No wonder my sister thinks so highly of you and is so willing to cooperate with you!"
After pretending to be cool with each other and joking with each other, the unfamiliarity between the two people immediately faded away a lot.
At the same time, Yang Ruoqian was sure that Cheng Fang really came to see him about Cheng Fei.
Yang Ruoqian picked up the teapot, poured himself a cup of tea, and said very sincerely: "It's not that mysterious, in fact, a lot of the reasons are luck, coincidence and accident."
The TV series I casually created with my feet became popular because of pure luck and coincidence.
It is also completely unexpected that a movie that responds to the market reaction is expected to become the top three domestic box office hits this year.
If Yang Ruoqian knew in advance that he would make so much money, he would not cooperate even if he killed him.
"Mr. Yang, you are so humble!" Cheng Fang laughed loudly, "We only have two children in our family. She has been particularly interested in film and television entertainment since she was a child, and she has a very stubborn temper... She is not afraid of your jokes, Mr. Yang. My father and I are actually very opposed to her getting involved in entertainment projects."
"In the early days when Chengyu Media was just starting out, we actually made some stumbling blocks secretly, but you resolved them one by one."
"Two completely unexpected works... If it were me, seeing this kind of script and this kind of subject matter, I would have to ask the person who wrote this thing to take his things and leave the company on the spot."
"It's really not easy for you to convince her to accept such a script and succeed in the end. After all, she is the most restless one in the family."
"Uh... Don't worry, Mr. Yang, the old man and I are not unreasonable people. After you succeeded for the first time, Chengyu Group has never made any mistakes again."
Yang Ruoqian listened silently to Cheng Fang's eloquence and did not reply, but he had already complained ten thousand words in his heart.
Not only is she the most restless one in your family, she is also the most restless one among all my partners.
Compared with Cheng Fei's movements, which can easily reach tens of millions or hundreds of millions, other people can only count them as small troubles until they die.
Since the cooperation between the two companies, Cheng Fei has caused far more damage to Yang Ruoqian than any other force, even hostile forces.
Like giving away an entire industry surrounding the Kuaiguang Group without saying a word, treating a restaurant with an unknown word as the company's designated dining spot without authorization, giving Yang Ruoqian a supercar that costs so much money and must be kept as a treasure...
Such things happen everywhere, and they bring huge losses to Yang Ruoqian every time.
Oh, speaking of this, there is also Cheng Fei's exclusive "double standard" - their own vision in selecting singers is extremely different, but when they choose singers for Kuo Guang, it is as if they have changed people.
If Chengyu Media hadn't been so optimistic about Wei Ling and Zeng Yi, Yang Ruoqian wouldn't have thought of signing them.
Yang Ruoqian caught a key message in Cheng Fang's words and tried it in a nonchalant tone: "From what you said, it seems that even if Chengyu Media has achieved such great success, you still don't want Cheng Fei to continue to manage the entertainment industry. project?"
We need to understand Cheng Fang's specific thoughts in order to understand the current situation...
If the objections from Chengyu Group are too loud, maybe the cooperation between the two parties can be weakened.
Cheng Fang smiled bitterly: "Yes... The old man and I are not unreasonable people. She has made the media company so successful and the profits are amazing. What reason do we have to force her not to continue?"
Yang Ruoqian nodded and asked: "Then I want to ask, why do you object to Cheng Fei taking charge of the media company?"
"Actually, from the perspective of the company's interests, we should not object, but should support it. Since the cooperation between Chengyu Media and Kuaiguang Group, our performance has been improved a lot, and the old man has been bragging outside." Cheng Fang was a little helpless. said.
"The problem is that the original reason why she liked the entertainment industry was because she liked movies and TV series, the actors, and the feeling of creating an imaginary world and imaginary stories."
"But behind these glamorous big screens, what kind of chaos is there... Mr. Yang, you are an expert, so you can understand what I mean."
"She is the source of resources, so she doesn't have to face these problems, but she also can't change anything. Instead of facing such a huge contrast, she might as well just be a lover of movies and TV series. There are many big projects in the group, so there is no need to be involved in the entertainment industry. "
Yang Ruoqian's mouth twitched slightly when he heard this.
This is the reason why I dare to love...
That's right, after all, she is a daughter and a younger sister, and she is not very old. It is really embarrassing for her to face the unspoken rules that fill every corner of the circle all day long.
Many times, when others obey the rules in front of Yang Ruoqian or Cheng Fei, it is just because they need cooperation, and there is no need to break up over such trivial matters.
Yang Ruoqian put the vegetables in front of him into a bowl and asked, "Then what do you think?"
Cheng Fang said: "I won't talk about the profit aspect. From the emotional aspect, I am personally very entangled. First, we don't want her to be overly exposed to these things; second, she really likes it..."
"It would be okay if the previous project failed, but now it is so successful, we can only respect her personal wishes..."
"Actually, I personally think it would be a good thing to let her go out and have some experience so that she can bump into a nail in society. Unfortunately... she didn't bump into the nail, but she made a lot of money."
"I can also understand her choice. After all, I also dreamed of being an actor when I was a child. Unfortunately, I had to give up my dream in the end and went back to inherit the family business. I was forced to become the CEO of Chengyu Group."
If it weren't for the swallowing action, Yang Ruoqian would have rolled his eyes.
Listen, is this human talk?
A person who wanted to be an actor finally gave up his dream for various reasons, returned to his hometown, and unfortunately inherited tens of billions or even hundreds of billions of family property?
After recalling his own affairs, Cheng Fang put down his chopsticks and said solemnly: "Mr. Yang, I'm not here today to ask you to terminate your cooperation. If one day Chengyu Media changes people, I can guarantee that, Any cooperation plans and contracts will not change."
"My little sister must have caused you a lot of trouble during this time. Thank you Mr. Yang for taking care of me! As long as I am still the CEO, Kuai Guang will always be Chengyu's friend!"
Yang Ruoqian, who was in trouble, sighed: "Let's not talk about care, just mutually beneficial cooperation."
Cheng Fang waved his hand: "To express my gratitude, I have asked someone to buy a bunch of products in your live broadcast room, just as a small gift to Mr. Yang!"
Yang Ruoqian, who was eating free meals, was stunned for a moment.
Buying a bunch of items?
You fucking stop it!
With so much money, you can just buy some wine, go on a vacation, or even directly call my bank account to purchase gross products?
From an outsider's perspective, creating performance for Kuaiguang Group, which is 100% owned by Yang Ruoqian, is equivalent to giving money to him. There is not much difference.
But for Yang Ruoqian, it was simply bad news that made matters worse.
Funds that were already too abundant now became even more abundant.
Yang Ruoqian remained calm and said equally grandly: "There is no need for purchasing, just accept it as you wish."
"No, no, no." Cheng Fang waved his hands repeatedly, "This heartfelt message must be delivered... Mr. Yang, to be honest, I also have a small request. I wonder if I can tell you?"
Yang Ruoqian nodded curiously: "Is there anything else that Mr. Cheng needs to ask others for?"
It is estimated that Cheng Fang has already finished the procurement matter, and trying to persuade him now will have no real effect.
You can't be so particular that you let others handle returns within seven days without any reason, right?
As for the request, Yang Ruoqian was very interested.
Even though Kuaiguang Group is now very large and has a lot of profits, compared with Chengyu Group, which is involved in many fields, the gap is still huge.
Now Cheng Fang actually said that he had something to ask for help?
"Oh, a cruel request... Mr. Yang, don't you have a lot of scenes to shoot? I just want to get addicted to being an actor. How about you arrange a role for me?"
Yang Ruoqian was surprised when he heard this request: "With your company's strength and financial resources, you can customize a movie directly for you. Why do you need to ask me?"
If it was just to satisfy his addiction to being an actor, Cheng Fang could just invest in a movie to entertain himself.
Or they may play a guest role as the largest investor or publisher, like Yang Ruoqian and Cheng Fei.
"Oh, Mr. Yang doesn't understand, that feeling is different." Cheng Fang shook his head, "It's like using cheats to win the game by pushing all the way, and the sense of accomplishment of clearing the level by yourself is completely different."
"And who am I, Cheng Fang, and how can I behave in a self-pleasure movie?"
"If you want to make a movie, make it a blockbuster! At least it should be a supporting role!"
After his impassioned speech, Cheng Fang turned to look at Yang Ruoqian and asked expectantly: "Mr. Yang, do you think I can do it?"
Not at all...
Yang Ruoqian didn't want to introduce another unknown variable in the tense third quarter.
Judging from past experience, doing so in most cases will attract wolves into the house.
And the explanation of wanting to make a movie is too far-fetched... This is obviously the most natural way Cheng Fang thought of to have a deeper relationship with Yang Ruoqian himself.
However, before Yang Ruoqian could say his rejection, Cheng Fang suddenly changed the topic, his voice and tone were very low: "Mr. Yang, I understand all the rules. In this way, I will give you a personal reward of 200,000." Little red envelope, do you think I have the qualifications to be an actor?"
In Cheng Fang's view, there is basically no difference between 200,000 yuan and 20 yuan for him and Yang Ruoqian.
It's like a good brother did me a small favor and spent dozens of dollars to treat my brother to a spicy meal.
Cheng Fang wanted to use this more easy-going attitude to express his purpose of making friends with Yang Ruoqian.
"Yes, it's really great." Yang Ruoqian almost didn't think about it, and followed Cheng Fang and said, "To be honest, your current level has actually surpassed many professional actors."
200,000!
This is 200,000!
If he didn't make this money, Yang Ruoqian would be so angry that he would wake up from sleep.
If Cheng Fang is a good friend, I'm sure.
Cheng Fang, who had a dream of being an actor when he was young, was immediately overjoyed and asked quickly: "Does Mr. Yang have any movies that are still lacking people? I can fill them in!"
Yang Ruoqian was about to say no, but suddenly he thought that he still had a bad card in his hand.
"I'm not sure about this. I'll give you an answer after I ask."
With that said, Yang Ruoqian opened the chat box with Cai Meng.
In the chat box, the information about "Titanic 2", a shocking copycat movie, is still in the most conspicuous position. (End of chapter)
