Top of the big era

This year's NBA draft is about to begin, and Zhou Buqi is ready to go there to watch, show his own value, and write a legendary story of discerning talents in the NBA.

However, before that, Zhou Buqi responded to the invitation of Xu Baihui and his sister and went to meet the Happy Twist team. Boss Zhou has great face. If he comes forward in person, the success rate of negotiations will be higher.

Happy Mahua is now developing very well and has generated profits, so in the past two years, many investors have wanted to invest in it.

However, they were all rejected by the three founders of Happy Twist.

For this team, asking for money is useless.

There are often two reasons for financing and getting money. First, the project runs out of money and the money is used to pay employees. But Happy Mahua has already made a profit, so there is no shortage of money;

Second, it is even more impossible to quickly promote the market after taking money. This kind of theater performance is only effective in big cities. The two best places in the country are the capital and Shanghai. White-collar workers have high incomes and high pursuits. , willing to spend money to buy tickets to watch the theater. The same cannot be said for other markets. They cannot develop at all, and it is useless to spend money to promote them.

However, it is impossible to say how much these founders have high expectations for Happy Mahua. Although they do not raise funds, there are frequent transfers of shares between individuals. The major shareholder has changed three times, and one person has sold out all his shares and quit.

Jieyu Media appears with a complete business plan, from stage plays to talk shows, from TV stations to big screens, from reality shows to big movies...

The entire set of combo punches confused Happy Twist's team.

More importantly, Jieyu Media will be listed next year!

At this time, Jieyu Media's acquisition of Happy Mahua is equivalent to acquiring original shares. Huayi is an example. How many people are jealous? It’s great that LeTV is about to go public, and this IPO has also attracted much attention from the entertainment industry.

Boss Zhou's appearance directly shocked several bosses of Happy Twist, and their contracted actors also expressed their willingness to join Jieyu Media, either explicitly or implicitly.

Because it is stated in the merger and acquisition plan that Jieyu Media will complete the joint-stock restructuring from October to November. At that time, all the contracted actors of Happy Twist will have the opportunity to subscribe for original shares.

There are requirements for the number of shareholders applying for IPO listing in Hong Kong stocks, which cannot be less than 100. Jieyu Media’s plan is to provide a shareholder list of 120-150 people.

Who do these shareholders elect?

There is no need for employees. Jieyu Media is a relatively traditional company. Employees are all part-time workers. They just need to do things honestly as required, and there is no need to exert any subjective initiative.

The people who need to be most favored are the producers, directors, screenwriters, and actors in the industry. They are the creators of the work and are equivalent to the "R\u0026D team" in technology companies.

Therefore, the opportunity to subscribe for Jieyu Media’s original shares will be more open to practitioners in the industry who have close cooperation with Jieyu Media. For example, director Ning Hao, director Chen Kaige who was dumped by China Film Film Corporation because the box office of "Mei Lanfang" did not meet expectations and was taken over by Jieyu Media, and director Jiang Wen who was poached from Hong Kong businessmen, etc.

There are also some important actors in the industry, such as Xu Zheng, Huang Bo, Bao Qiang, Yang Mi, Dili Reya and others.

However, the opportunity is given, and it is estimated that many people may not be able to afford it.

Jieyu Media is not a small company like Huayi, and its overseas business has exploded. Second quarter financial report, net profit was US$360 million!

Among them, US$320 million comes from the platter investment business, which all comes from the box office split. Among them, the split for "Avatar" reached US$280 million.

What is this concept?

Based on this financial report, Jieyu Media’s current valuation can reach at least US$20 billion, equivalent to HK$140 billion. Huayi is listed on the GEM, with a market value of only 10 billion yuan.

The gap is too big.

Jieyu Media is expected to obtain 2% of the total share capital for the subscription of original shares, and the total subscription price will be at least more than HK$2 billion. 100 people working in the film and television industry will share the share of HK$2 billion, with each person paying an average of HK$20 million.

How can they have so much money?

The current film and television industry has not yet exploded. Actors can earn hundreds of thousands of yuan in salary for filming a TV series, but they cannot afford such a big deal.

At that time, Jieyu Media can still have new operations, which is nothing more than a capital feast, and everyone will share the cake together. Let some well-connected private equity investors participate, let some relatives of industry tycoons participate, let some people with social status participate, these people will be very rich.

The listing of Jieyu Media is far more complicated than that of Huayi, and the plate is too big. With the explosion of platter investment business this year, this company has become outstanding in the country.

Under such momentum, if I extend an olive branch to Happy Twist, everything will fall into place.

Zhou Nan was very happy when she came out of the Capital Hotel. When negotiating at the dinner just now, she was the most excited and willing to show off, "Brother, how did I behave just now?"

"fine."

Zhou Buqi put his arm around her shoulders, opened the car door for her, and walked her into the car.

Zhou Nan said happily: "Brother, I feel like I'm awesome. They agree to whatever I say and don't dare to say a word. Am I pretending to be a bit of a coward?"

Zhou Buqi smiled and said, "No, you are the vice president. You are their future leader. Who dares to disrespect you?"

"Too."

Zhou Nan smiled and was very happy.

"Brother, I'm about to go on summer vacation."

"Um."

"Where should I go to play?"

Zhou Buqi made a suggestion, "Wouldn't it be good to intern at Jieyu Media?"

"Ah?" Zhou Nan was very reluctant, "I'm only 20 years old. Are you tying me to a job at such a young age? I want to travel around the world, um... didn't you say you were going to Dubai?"

"Well, it's about work."

"I want to go too, and I'll take those little stars you hired with me."

"Going to Dubai?" Zhou Buqi didn't think it was a good idea, "What are you going to do in this summer? I'm going to work, there's no other way, otherwise I wouldn't be willing to go."

"Let's see the world. I heard that people there are rich, and the streets are full of Ferraris, Lamborghinis and the like."

"It's up to you. I'll go to the United States first, and then go to Hawaii to join your sister-in-law and the others for a few days of vacation. I'll go to Dubai at the beginning of next month, well, mainly Abu Dhabi."

"Oh, then I'll go to Hawaii first!"

…

First go to the Northeast, pick up Sun Wanran, and then go to Los Angeles.

After getting on the plane, Ning Lu, another very attentive secretary on the plane, noticed that she was a little depressed, and there were even bloodshot eyes in her eyes.

Ning Lu sat next to her with concern and whispered: "Are you having trouble with your parents? In modern society, isn't this the case? The older generation's ideas are a bit...they need to be more open-minded."

She thought Wan Wan was working as a mistress for the big boss and was looked down upon by her parents.

Sun Wanran shook his head gently, "It's not my parents."

"Other relatives?" Ning Lu frowned, looking confused, "Have you made it public?"

Sun Wanran sighed softly, "It's not what you think, it's not... it has nothing to do with the boss. It's about money. Many relatives have asked me to borrow money."

Ning Lu's family is relatively simple, so she has never encountered this kind of thing, and she still doesn't quite understand, "What's wrong with borrowing money? You don't want to borrow it?"

Sun Wanran said distressedly: "It's borrowing money, but it's not about borrowing money. In the past year or so, I have lent out more than 300,000 yuan. It's like a bottomless pit. No one pays back. I'm short of money." Just ask me for it again."

"That's it..."

This time, Ning Lu understood it very well.

This is not borrowing money, this is asking for money.

When her relatives saw that she was rich, they all used her as a cash cow. They kept asking her for money, once, twice, three times, four times... No one's money came from the strong wind. They simply used her as a cash cow. Taken advantage of.

Sun Wanran continued: "I have a relative who is quite distant. I refused to borrow it once, and then I fell out. I even called my parents and scolded them, saying that they had no conscience. The relatives said they were rich. I stopped recognizing people. This time when I went home, my third aunt came to borrow money again. She asked for 150,000 yuan, saying she wanted to buy a new car."

As she spoke, her eyes turned red. She choked and said, "How many times have I said this? These are all very close relatives. I just gave them some small money. You can just say thank you to me. It seems like I It seemed like I owed them. This time I came to borrow another 150,000 yuan. I originally agreed, but I just felt uncomfortable, so I asked him when he would pay back the money he borrowed. She became unhappy after hearing this and said she wouldn't borrow it. Later, I called my mother and told them that we would no longer have contact with each other. My parents still had to come to buy things to ease the relationship. Why?! I don’t owe them anything! My parents have been warm-hearted all their lives, and I can’t bear it , I went to the bank and withdrew 150,000 yuan. I don’t care if I don’t want the money, I just feel uncomfortable. It’s too bullying.”

"Don't cry..." Ning Lu was a little panicked. She didn't know how to solve this kind of problem, so she shouted in the direction of the work area, "Boss, come and take a look, Wan Wan is being bullied." !”

Zhou Buqi was talking to Ning Yaxian about Teacher Chen and her relatives. The relative introduced by Teacher Chen Yan was not a sister to her, but an aunt and nephew. This made Zhou Buqi feel that it was a bit too far, so he did not agree. Teacher Chen was not very happy.

Hearing Ning Lu's voice, Zhou Buqi walked over and took a look and found Sun Wanran wiping away tears.

After asking, it was a matter of borrowing money from relatives at home.

Just very helpless.

This is really not a rare thing, any wealthy family has encountered it. The Zhou family also has a lot of poor relatives, and they always give them red envelopes during every year and festival.

However, Zhou Buqi doesn't care much about these things. His father does it. He doesn't know how much money the Zhou family sends to relatives every year. It should be in the hundreds of thousands.

Zhou Buqi gently held Sun Wanran in his arms, smiled and said comfortingly: "What's there to cry about? It's just 150,000. You still lack this little money? Didn't you give your pocket money at home? Isn't it enough?" "

"Here you go, that's enough."

"Isn't that okay? Money is an external possession, and it will be lost if it is lost. How can money be as important as relatives?"

"I feel uncomfortable."

Sun Wanran's spiritual level is obviously not as high as that of Boss Zhou. Hundreds of thousands of dollars were wasted, and he couldn't even receive a thank you. It was really not worth the gain.
