Chapter 249 I am willing to give you a chance
Ji Libo is very troubled now.
But they are happy worries.
Because just an hour ago, he had just met with the boss of the film and television investment department of Donghai Media. The other person said that Qi Xiangyang wanted to invest in his "New Myth: Wukong".
This incident made Ji Libo feel that all the pores on his body were opened.
Good guy, no one invested in themselves before, but now Xu Xiyu and Qi Xiangyang are rushing to invest in themselves.
Sure enough, my talent is like the bright moon in the sky. Although sometimes it is obscured by dark clouds, it cannot be hidden after all.
The most important thing is that Xu Xiyu and Qi Xiangyang are obviously fighting in the ring now.
In this way, wouldn't he be able to deal with the two people and constantly increase his price?
As the saying goes, just do it. With this mentality of raising prices, Ji Libo took the initiative to find Xu Xiyu who had just finished chatting with a senior executive.
As soon as he entered, before Xu Xiyu could speak, he expressed his position seriously: "Traitors, they are all traitors. Don't worry, Mr. Xu, I will not be a traitor.
Just now Qi Xiangyang from Donghai said he wanted to invest in my project, but I immediately refused. I told him that you talked to me about this project first, and if I want to invest, I must give you priority, right? ”
Hearing this, Xu Xiyu was not surprised.
He even guessed Qi Xiangyang's purpose in an instant, which was to deceive the stupid boy. Ji Libo had been looking for investment for this project for more than a day or two.
When can Qi Xiangyang not vote? Does he have to come at this time?
However, thinking so in his heart, Xu Xiyu pretended to be moved and smiled on the surface: "Brother Ji, Hua Qing's current situation, with your words, I really feel much better."
"Mr. Xu, please don't be too sad. After all, you have just taken over the company. You will indeed have troubles of one kind or another. Just wait until things are resolved smoothly." Ji Libo quickly comforted him.
After comforting him, he just added: "Do you know what Qi Xiangyang said? He said that Huaqing has financial problems now and cannot afford to invest in my project.
I scolded him back at that time, who am I looking down on? What is my identity, Mr. Xu, that I can’t afford this investment of 7 to 8 billion? Isn't this funny? ”
As soon as these words came out, even a big-hearted player like Xu Xiyu was shocked by Ji Libo.
Good guy.
You really dare to speak.
Seventy-eight billion?
Am I crazy enough to invest 700 to 800 million for you?
Do you know how much the production cost of "The Wandering Earth" was?
Thinking of this, Xu Xiyu deliberately slapped his hands and said: "Brother Ji, what you said is very encouraging. If he contacts you again in the future, you might as well say it more clearly.
Just say that your project is related to Hua Qing's layout for the next ten years, and let him give up and stop contacting you to avoid misunderstandings. ”
"Hey, Mr. Xu, you must not misunderstand me. I will always stand with our Hua Qing." Hearing this, Ji Libo suppressed his joy and made another statement.
After expressing his position, he was about to say something more, but Xu Xiyu didn't want to talk nonsense with him, so he changed the topic and said: "Oh, by the way, you have an assistant director named Tao Mingzhou, right?"
"Uh...yes, what's wrong, Mr. Xu?" Ji Libo was a little confused.
"I can trust the people under you, so I not only have to fully support you, but I also have to train the people under you well. In this way, you call Tao Mingzhou over. I have a small project that I want him to try."
Ji Libo's face froze when he heard these words.
Regardless of what he said in front of Tao Mingzhou before, let Xu Xiyu invest in Tao Mingzhou in the future.
Those were all polite words. Now that Xu Xiyu really wanted to arrange a project for Tao Mingzhou, his first reaction was that he was unwilling.
So, he hurriedly asked: "Mr. Xu, what project is it? What is the investment scale?"
"It's not much money, a small project worth tens of millions. After all, our company still has a big project waiting to be spent. I don't have that much budget to give him, right?" At this point, Xu Xiyu paused deliberately.
Let Ji Libo misunderstand that the big project is "New Myth: Wukong".
Then he continued: "This project is just a small supplement. After all, we are a film company. We can't just produce one film a year, right?"
"That's the truth, that's the truth." Ji Libo nodded while thinking.
"In this case, you give him a call and ask him to come over now." Xu Xiyu urged without giving him time to think.
However, Ji Libo did not call, but deliberately touched his pocket and said: "Oh, I forgot my phone in the car. It's okay. He is resting in the company's rest area. I went over to call him and he will be there soon."
As soon as Xu Xiyu heard this, he knew that his grandson was planning to sell his favor.
However, he did not expose it, but nodded and motioned for him to go quickly.
Soon, Ji Libo ran out quickly.
About ten minutes later, he found Tao Mingzhou who was lying on the massage chair for massage, and said: "Old Tao, you really need to thank me this time."
Tao Mingzhou was stunned by such a sudden sentence.
I was just about to ask what's going on.
He then heard Ji Libo continue: "Didn't I tell you before that I would let Xu Xiyu invest in you? Today, I broke my promise and finally got it done. Don't lie down, hurry up, Xu Xiyu Looking for you.”
"Really or not?" Tao Mingzhou's face was still a little confused.
"Can it be fake? Come on, come with me." Ji Libo pulled Tao Mingzhou away without any explanation.
At this time, Tao Mingzhou finally reacted, and surprise burst out on his face. He followed and said, "Director Ji, this...this, I don't even know what to say." "It doesn't matter how you say it. The key is how to do it, Lao Tao, you must know how to be grateful as a person, and you must not imitate those traitors," Ji Libo said pointedly.
When Tao Mingzhou heard this, he nodded quickly. He thought Ji Libo was talking about the employees who quit Hua Qing, so he expressed his position: "Don't worry, I will repay Mr. Xu well and create benefits for our Hua Qing."
But when Ji Libo heard this, he felt a little disgusted.
Lao Tao, are you just going to repay Mr. Xu?
Aren't you going to repay me in return?
Are you not sensible at all?
Feeling disgusted in his heart, but not having much to say on the surface, he could only take Tao Mingzhou to Xu Xiyu's office.
The chairman's office is a suite structure. To enter Xu Xiyu's office, you have to pass through the assistant Shan Xinbao's office outside.
As soon as the two of them arrived, Shan Xinbao stood up and stopped him: "Director Ji, Mr. Xu means to chat with Director Tao alone. He asked you to go about your own business first and talk to you later."
As soon as these words came out, Ji Libo's face visibly stiffened.
Chat alone?
What does this mean?
Is there anything I can't listen to?
Huaqing will rely on me in the future, and the 7.9% equity incentive is obviously prepared for me.
Tao Mingzhou also showed some embarrassing expressions.
Shan Xinbao didn't care about this matter and just continued to stop him. She wouldn't let the two of them in until Ji Libo left.
After being frozen like this for more than ten seconds, Ji Libo couldn't force him to stay. He could only pat Tao Mingzhou on the shoulder and reminded him again: "Old Tao, you must know how to be grateful as a human being."
"Hey, don't worry, I will definitely keep your support in mind." Tao Mingzhou is not stupid, he understands what Ji Libo means.
When Ji Libo heard this, he finally felt a little more comfortable.
After glancing at Shan Xin Bao, he cursed in his heart, "You little girl is not sensible, why did you just put me in for a fool? Do you understand that Hua Qing will have to rely on me for food in the future?"
He left with four steps.
At this time, Tao Mingzhou also pushed the door in and said hello: "Mr. Xu."
"Sit anywhere you want." Xu Xiyu said with a gentle smile.
After Tao Mingzhou sat down, Xu Xiyu made him tea and said with a smile: "Director Tao, I am your fan."
"Ah?" Tao Mingzhou was stunned by these words.
"When I was studying, I always used "The Diary of Embarrassing" to make meals. So, of all the directors at Hua Qing, you are the one I met first and the one I'm most familiar with." Xu Xiyu said, placing one in front of Tao Mingzhou. cup.
When he said this, he was actually telling Tao Mingzhou.
I'm chatting with you because I know you, not because of Ji Libo or anything like that. Don't get the wrong favor.
Xu Xiyu read Tao Mingzhou's information carefully.
The evaluation given by the human resources department is that the advantage is that he is practical in work and interesting. The disadvantage is that he is not from a professional background and is a "wild person" who has taken advantage of the east wind of the Internet age.
In fact, Xu Xiyu had heard Tao Mingzhou's name before.
Before joining Huaqing, he had filmed some online short dramas, such as "The Diary of Embarrassment" that Xu Xiyu just mentioned. This is a comedy short drama similar to "Unexpectedly" and "Report to the Boss".
Of course, "Diary of Embarrassment" is not as popular as Wan Hetianyi's play.
However, even popular ones like Wan He Tianyi, with directors such as Yi Xiaoxing and Liu Xunzimo, have little status in the entertainment industry.
What's more, without them, Tao Mingzhou would be far less popular than them.
He was able to work as an assistant director for Ji Libo, which was considered a stable job.
After all, although Ji Libo's "New Myth: Wukong" has been in preparation for 5 years, it does not mean that he has not done other work in these 5 years.
In fact, he has directed several projects in the past five years, but the projects were not very successful.
At this time, Tao Mingzhou heard that Xu Xiyu had read "Diary of Embarrassment", and for a moment, he didn't know what to say when he was preparing for the road.
Of course, he still understood what Xu Xiyu meant.
Ever since, he was also speechless towards Ji Libo in his heart.
And you even used your words to help yourself win the project?
How did you have the nerve to say this?
And Xu Xiyu didn't beat around the bush and said directly: "I have a movie on hand. It's a workplace comedy style. This is very suitable for you. I have the script. You can shoot according to the script. What do you think? Are you interested?"
"Yes, there must be." Tao Mingzhou replied without any thought.
"However, there are special arrangements for the filming schedule of this movie. One week, I will give you one week, and you will first help me shoot a promotional video, similar to the fast-paced short film style of "The Diary of Embarrassing People"."
"No problem." Tao Mingzhou quickly agreed without any hesitation.
