Rebirth in 1985

Chapter 264: Solution and Successful Cooperation

Being in the same industry and in the same place, Hong Kong is not a very big city, so competition is inevitable. Needless to say, the relationship between Lu Shaohua and the Huo family is very good, and Lu Shaohua does not want to be at odds with them, but the problem now is that the development of Phoenix Real Estate is hindered, and the Huo family is an obstacle in the way.

After thinking for a long time, Lu Shaohua couldn't think of a way to have the best of both worlds. Helplessly, Lu Shaohua could only say: "Let's put this matter aside for now. I'll find a time to talk to Mr. Huo and see what he says, and then we'll think of a solution."

"Yeah!" He Chengyi nodded and responded.

"Hmm? Chairman, I do have an idea, but I don't know if it's feasible." Qin Sichen said.

Qin Sichen is a genius. At the same time, he has a good psychological quality. He knows when to do something and when not to do something. Although she is very confused about the funding gap, didn't Lu Shaohua give her a chance to talk alone? She can only suppress her doubts and consider the current problem first.

"Oh? Tell me about it." Lu Shaohua said with interest.

"Well, there are many ways to avoid competition with the Huo Group, but I think the most direct way is to increase communication. As long as we understand each other's next plans and communicate with each other, we can avoid competition. Even if there is competition, it will be healthy competition." Qin Sichen finished speaking his thoughts in one breath.

Lu Shaohua nodded. It's not like he hadn't thought about this problem before, but it's easier said than done. After all, every company has its own secrets. Just like Qin Sichen said, 'understand the next plan of both parties', but this next plan is a company's business secret, so it's really a bit difficult to deal with. But so far this is the only way.

"Well, let's settle this matter for now. I'll go talk to Mr. Huo and we'll tell you the result first." Lu Shaohua didn't want to continue talking about this topic. He would make plans after talking to Huo Yingdong.

The Phoenix Real Estate matter was settled, and there was nothing else to do. Lu Shaohua directly announced the adjournment of the meeting, asked Li Yunqing, Liu Mingzhang and Qin Sichen to stay, and asked the other three to return to their jobs.

Suddenly, only four people were left in the conference room. It was quiet and no one spoke. Lu Shaohua, who was sitting in the main seat, did not speak because he was organizing his words. He did not know how to tell Qin Sichen. He was very conflicted, but one thing was almost certain, that is, he could not tell how much money Phoenix Capital had.

This is where the problem lies. He cannot tell you how much the funds are, but Qin Si Chen is the executive president of the group. Lu Shaohua cannot just say that he cannot tell him how much it is. One must be skillful in speaking, otherwise it will be too disappointing to Qin Si Chen.

"Ms. Qin, as the executive president of Phoenix Group, you should know the amount of funds of the group, but the situation of Phoenix Group is rather special. I cannot tell you. It's not that I don't trust you, but the relationship is too big and involves all parties." Lu Shaohua thought about it but couldn't find a good way, so he could only say this.

How much wealth Lu Shaohua has has always been a secret. Even powerful countries cannot find out how much money he has. Because of this, people don't dare to do anything to someone like Lu Shaohua whose background is unknown. Sometimes mystery can be a life-saving talisman!

"Well, I can't tell you the amount of funds. But you have to understand that Phoenix Group will never have a funding gap. You can do anything with confidence." Lu Shaohua glosses over the sensitive topic of funding figures and gives Qin Sichen a reassuring promise.

Qin Sichen is a smart person. Ever since she joined Phoenix Group, she knew that Phoenix Group was very mysterious, especially in terms of funding. She once estimated that Phoenix Group had at least tens of billions of dollars in funds, but later she found out that she was wrong, and she was wrong in an outrageous way.

"Okay, I understand." Qin Sichen said lightly.

Lu Shaohua nodded and said, "Then go down. I'll talk to Manager Liu and the others."

……

Qin Sichen left, and there was one less person in the conference room, only Li Yunqing and Liu Mingzhang. At this time, Lu Shaohua spoke. "Phoenix Financial remains unchanged, and will continue to make some long-term investments as it did last year. However, Yunqing, you have to pay attention to foreign countries, especially the shares of those foreign companies we acquired at that time. If you can absorb more stocks, absorb more."

"Okay." Li Yunqing responded.

"Well, as for Mingzhang, you are still the same as before. As for when to take action, I will inform you." Lu Shaohua turned his head and said to Liu Mingzhang.

"I understand." Liu Mingzhang nodded excitedly. Although he had known about the action a long time ago, hearing these words from Lu Shaohua still made him uncontrollably excited.

"That's it, I'm going back too." After saying that, Lu Shaohua stood up and walked out the door without stopping.

……

After leaving the company, Lu Shaohua went straight back to his residence and called Huo Yingdong again, saying that he was going to visit his company. It was this incident that made Huo Yingdong complain. Last time, they had agreed to go the next day, but in the end, Lu Shaohua found an excuse not to go.

"Xiaohua, you can't stand me up again this time, otherwise I will never let you go," said Ho Ying-tung on the other end of the phone.

"No, no." After saying that, Lu Shaohua added seriously, "I will be at the door of your company on time at 2 o'clock in the afternoon."

"Okay, you said it." After saying that, Ho Ying-tung hung up the phone.

What else could Lu Shaohua do? He shook his head helplessly and hung up the phone. Then he watched TV and waited for lunch.

……

At two o'clock in the afternoon, Lu Shaohua arrived at the Huo Group on time. He got out of the car and was about to enter the Huo Group, but unexpectedly, he heard Xiang Huaqiang's magnetic voice from behind.

"Xiaohua, wait a minute."

Lu Shaohua was quite familiar with Xiang Huaqiang's voice, so he stopped and turned around to ask, "How come Uncle Xiang has time to come?"

"Oh?" Xiang Huaqiang looked at Lu Shaohua with doubt and asked back. "Didn't Uncle Huo ask you to come?"

Lu Shaohua shook his head and said, "I came here to take a look."

"Okay, I understand. That may be something Uncle Huo didn't tell you about our last collaboration. Today, Uncle Huo invited Zhou Wenhuai and Uncle Shao Liu to come over and have a talk." Xiang Huaqiang said.

At this time, Lu Shaohua finally understood that Huo Yingdong had already persuaded Zhou Wenhuai and Shao Liushu, and took advantage of today's opportunity to sit together and discuss cooperation. Lu Shaohua smiled and said, "Then let's go in, haha!"

"Yeah." Xiang Huaqiang nodded, said nothing, and walked side by side with Lu Shaohua towards the gate of the Huo Building.

The person who came to greet Lu Shaohua was none other than Huo Zhenyu. Lu Shaohua and he were old acquaintances, so there was no need for them to be polite. As for Xiang Huaqiang, needless to say, they were both from the Hong Kong business community, and the relationship between the two families was also good, so they naturally knew each other. While chatting, the two of them took Lu Shaohua and Xiang Huaqiang to the elevator entrance.

Arriving at a conference room on an unknown floor, Lu Shaohua and Xiang Huaqiang had just walked in when they saw three people sitting inside. However, Lu Shaohua only knew one of them, and that was Ho Ying-tung who was sitting in the main seat. However, Lu Shaohua could guess who the two people were. Sure enough, after a while, Ho Ying-tung's introduction confirmed Lu Shaohua's idea. The two people were Zhou Wenhuai and Run Run Shaw.

Of course, Lu Shaohua knew them, and they naturally got to know Lu Shaohua through Huo Yingdong's introduction. However, they were not surprised by Lu Shaohua's age. It was obvious that Huo Yingdong had already told them about Lu Shaohua before he came.

After some pleasantries, this cooperation project among five companies officially entered the first round of consultation. Since this cooperation project was initiated by Lu Shaohua, when the meeting started, Lu Shaohua began to talk about the content of the cooperation in general.

In addition to the content, Lu Shaohua also talked about the development of the film industry and the feasibility and profitability of this project. All businessmen are the same. The first thing they consider is whether it can make money. If it can make money, then they will discuss the following details. If they think it cannot make money, no one is willing to invest.

"Well, I think this project is feasible." Zhou Wenhuai was the first to express his opinion.

Once there is a success, there will be another. Then Run Run Shaw also expressed his opinion. "Well, if it succeeds, it is indeed very promising. Although I no longer make movies, I still think this project is worth investing in, but..."

"Haha, Mr. Shao, today we are here for consultation. If you have any questions, just tell me directly." Lu Shaohua said with a smile. He knew that the project had been finalized and any problems were only with details.

As expected, Run Run Shaw continued, "My problem is not big, it's mainly about details, such as the script, actors, director and the amount of money invested."

"Well, these are indeed things that need to be finalized before the cooperation, but I have made it clear that my company does not make movies. I will only participate in the investment, and I don't care about other things, hehe." said Ho Ying-tung.

Everyone nodded. It was common knowledge that the Huo Group did not participate in the film industry, and no one could say anything.

Finally, after everyone's discussion, it was finally determined that Lu Shaohua's Phoenix Entertainment did not have many stars at the moment, and he only accounted for 15% of the total profit of the cooperation project, but he had to contribute 20% of the funds, and Run Run Shaw also accounted for 15% like Lu Shaohua, and Huo Yingdong only accounted for 10%. The three of them accounted for 40%, and the other 60% was divided equally between Xiang Huaqiang and Zhou Wenhuai, each accounting for 30%. Although they accounted for 30% and contributed 20% of the funds, they had to provide the script, actors and equipment, and that was how they could get 30% of the total profit.

"Well, everything else seems to be fine, right?" Lu Shaohua asked in the end.

Everyone shook their heads, indicating that there was no problem.

"Well, let's do as we said just now. Let's find a few famous screenwriters to come up with the script first, and then we can discuss the rest. Since everyone has no problem, Lu Shaohua doesn't want to say any more meaningless words, so he ends the meeting directly.

"Okay!" Zhou Wenhuai smiled, as if he had encountered something exciting. After saying that, he stood up first and said, "Since it's like this, let's go back and prepare."

The cooperation meeting was over and everyone left one after another. Suddenly, only Lu Shaohua and Huo Yingdong were left in the meeting room.

Seeing that everyone had left, Huo Yingdong smiled at Lu Shaohua and said, "Now that everyone has left, it's time to give me some advice, right?"

"..." Lu Shaohua smiled bitterly and shook his head, then continued, "Grandpa Huo, please stop talking down to me. With my level, it's enough for me to have your constant guidance."

After saying that, Lu Shaohua didn't wait for Huo Yingdong to say anything else. His face became serious and he said, "Grandpa Huo, I have something else to discuss with you today."

Seeing that Lu Shaohua was serious, Huo Yingdong also became serious and said, "Tell me, what's the matter?"
