Chapter 293 I want to be your boss
July 9th, the second day of the premiere of [The Taoist Comes Down the Mountain].
[Tiny Times 4: The End of the Soul] directed by Guo Xiaosi held a premiere press conference in Beijing.
Unlike Chen Kai’s big plans, Director Guo may have known that his series of movies has always had a bad reputation, so he didn’t invite any stars. He just brought the starring team and reporters to start the movie. A publicity conference.
Gu Wei also saw the news on the news the next day.
After thinking about it, I called Yang Mi.
"Sister Mi, congratulations on the release of the new movie!"
Yang Mi was a little noisy over there, so she didn't reply to Gu Wei immediately and said:
" Wait a minute, don’t hang up the phone~”
In less than a minute, the phone was completely silent.
"Why did you remember to call me?"
"My sister's new movie is released, I wish you a big hit at the box office!"
"Haha~ This is really unnecessary."
< br>In fact, Yang Mi has always had mixed feelings about the "Tiny Times" series of movies.
[Little Times] undoubtedly received high box office, which is a rare good result among her starring movies.
But everyone knows that the credit for this high box office does not lie with her, but with director Guo Xiaosi. Most of the people who come to watch the movie to support it are fans of the original work.
The film's extremely poor reputation caused her to be criticized by industry insiders, and she even won the Golden Broom Award for "Most Disappointing Actress", but of course she did not accept it.
Yang Mi didn’t know whether the movie [Little Times] made her gain more or lose more.
"Did Sister Mi just run an event?"
Gu Wei saw that Yang Mi was not very interested and did not mention the movie again.
"I just went to a fan meeting with the crew before I got into the nanny car."
Yang Mi explained lightly.
"By the way, have you read the script [Jiaxing] sent you? Can you accept it?"
Gu Wei was stunned by Yang Mi's sudden question.
“What script?”
"Didn't your agent show it to you?
[Jiaxing], [Duxin Culture] and [LeTV] co-produced a workplace drama called [Dear Translator].
The film will start filming in the second half of the year, and I will play the female lead. Several producers and directors hope that you will play the male lead.
The crew is still waiting for your reply.”
< br>Yang Mi’s tone was a little urgent.
From her own perspective, she really wanted to cooperate with Gu Wei.
"I have been out doing promotions before. I just returned to the capital the day before yesterday. My agent probably hasn't had time to give it to me yet."
Gu Wei hesitated.
"There is another one. My schedule is fully booked until the end of the year. Even if I read the script, I don't have time to take it."
Yang Mi sighed on the other end of the phone.
"I understand, let me tell the company later."
"By the way, Sister Mi, have you finished filming [I am a Witness]?"
This is no longer Gu Wei This was the first time he rejected Yang Mi, and he was a little embarrassed. After all, the two of them had a good relationship.
“The filming is finished and we are in post-production.
This is a modern drama and the post-production is not complicated. The crew said it will take more than 3 months to complete, maybe this year. It will be released in the Lunar New Year movie at the end of the year.”
"Then I wish Sister Mi in advance that this movie will be a hit!"
Gu Wei said with a smile.
"Come on~
If you really want my movie to be a hit, you won't refuse to take the role."
Recalling the rejection by Gu Wei several times, Yang Mi's words contained With a trace of resentment.
Gu Wei didn't pay attention.
"Sister Mi, you [Jiaxing] have been very active in the past year. You have invested in movies and TV series, and your development has been very good!"
"There is no way. I have a big family to support, and if we don’t come up with some projects, the people under me will not be able to make ends meet.
And we, President Zeng, have determined to make [Jiaxing] bigger and stronger, so what if we don’t work hard. Any chance?”
Gu Wei felt moved after hearing Yang Mi’s words.
In recent years, capital has entered the entertainment industry on a large scale, using gold and dollar tactics to inject capital into major companies in the industry, as well as celebrities' personal studios.
Many celebrities make a lot of money.
But capital is not a philanthropist, and their money is not so easy to get. Many cakes that look delicious have conditions when they are eaten.
That is the gambling agreement.
Give me a typical example.
In 2016, [Shanghai New Culture Company] bought the equity of Zhou Xingchi Company at a price that exceeded normal standards by 40%, requiring Zhou Xingchi Company to achieve a net profit of 1.04 billion yuan within four years.
If the agreement fails, Zhou Xingchi will need to make up for the shortfall and repurchase equity on his own.
In other words, the bet was successful, the capital was not lost, and he became a shareholder of an entertainment company with great development momentum.
If it fails, then a celebrity boss like Mr. Xing will have to buy back the shares and spit out every penny of the money he took, plus interest.
Looking at the entire entertainment industry, in the past few years with the influx of capital, there are very few celebrities who have truly completed the capital bet. Xing Ye, Zhang Guoli, and Feng Xiaogang have all failed.
But Yang Mi’s [Jiaxing Media] is one of the few successful companies.
Of course, Yang Mi also paid a lot for the success of the bet.
She led her actors and actresses to take on roles crazily during the few years of the gambling agreement. Regardless of whether they were good or bad, she would not reject anyone who came, and she eventually became known as the Queen of Bad Movies.
[Jiaxing Media] The bet was successful. After two rounds of financing, the market value was 5 billion. Yang Mi also became one of the capitals because of his status as a shareholder.
The pros and cons of this are difficult to explain clearly.
"Sister Mi, as the boss of [Jiaxing Media], how much share do you hold?"
"What boss? I am just a part-time worker.
Our company's registration information on the Industrial and Commercial Network It’s very clear, I hold 19% of the shares and am just a small shareholder.”
Yang Mi said casually.
“Really? I don’t believe it!
Sister Mi, do you still need to hide our relationship from me? ”
Gu Wei knew that in 23 years, Yang Mi announced the end of the cooperation with [Jiaxing Media] and was no longer an artist under [Jiaxing Media].
But she still persisted With 15.19% of the shares of [Jiaxing Media], it is the third largest shareholder.
You must know that [Jiaxing] had already gone through two rounds of financing at that time, and the shares in the hands of all major shareholders had shrunk. Quite a bit.
Now this 19% share is obviously not all hers.
Yang Mi hesitated for a moment and felt that there was really no need to hide the matter from Gu Wei.
"Zeng Jia also helped me hold 10% of the shares on my behalf."
Gu Wei smiled slightly on the other end of the phone, as expected.
"Sister Mi, do you think it is difficult to open a company?"
"Of course it is difficult. It turns out that you are working alone. When you open a company, you have to consider the interests of the company, and also I don’t know how tiring it is to support newcomers every day!”
Yang Mi complained.
Although she became the boss after opening a company and could make many decisions on her own, it was also a lot of hard work. Physical fatigue was secondary, and the most important thing was mental fatigue.
"Then let me help you, okay?
You also know the results of my company. If there are good projects in the future, you can cooperate with [Jiaxing].
Also Can help you support your stars
You see, I just picked up Naza, and now my reputation is very close to the top. "
Gu Wei was good at tempting, and his words were like the devil's whisper, tempting Yang Mi. "Are you so kind? ”
Yang Mi was very moved after hearing Gu Wei’s words, but she is a very sober person. She would not think that after she had sex with Gu Wei several times, he would be desperate Help yourself.
The heroine who gave her [Xiuchundao 2] was already very interesting.
In her opinion, the various resources Gu Wei has at his disposal are very attractive. With his help, it will not be a problem for [Jiaxing Media] to develop rapidly.
But the key point is that [Jiaxing] cannot bring more benefits to Gu Wei, so why should he let him help unconditionally.
"It's definitely not possible now, but if we are a family, it's totally fine."
Gu Wei finally caught his eye and showed his fangs.
“What do you mean?”
Yang Mi seemed to know what Gu Wei wanted.
“According to the current valuation of [Jiaxing Media], I can spend a sum of money to buy some of the shares from your major shareholders.
In this way, I will also be the boss of the company. One.
As a shareholder, it is reasonable to share some film and television resources with the company to help the company grow and develop. "
[Jiaxing Media] is just a company now. It's an empty shell. The only thing of value is Yang Mi's financial contract. Reba hasn't gotten up yet, and other artists don't have any visibility.
Therefore, the valuation will not exceed 50 million.
"I am just one of the shareholders. Zeng Jia has always had the final say in management. This matter is too big. I have to go back and discuss it with them.
How many shares do you want?"
Yang Mi was obviously moved.
“If you want me to contribute resources, it will definitely not work if the shares are too small, at least 30% or more.
And I hope that Sister Mi, the shares you hold will not be less than 21%.
Because I only trust you, if there are any differences in the development of the company in the future, the two of us will have the greatest say with 51% of the shares combined. "
The shares are too high, and the female generals at [Jiaxing Media] will definitely not be willing to do so. 30% is probably just above their bottom line.
Gu Wei wants to buy shares in [Jiaxing Media] 】, on the one hand, it is to make money, and the current tens of millions will be more than 1 billion in the future.
On the other hand, it is to create another hardcore ally for myself in the circle.
If there is an opportunity in the future, he will also consider investing in other developing companies in the film and television industry.
Money can't be earned by one person.
Gu Wei will not keep all the good things in his company, as that will only lead to more and more enemies.
Gu Wei only eats the most delicious piece of cake in the entertainment industry.
Give the rest to your allies and friends, so that the road will become wider and wider.
Yang Mi felt moved after hearing Gu Wei's words.
She thought what Gu Wei said made sense, but she thought deeper.
If Gu Wei is introduced to the market, not only will it bring better development to the company, but the shares in her own hands will also become more important.
Whichever side she stands on at that time will have absolute control.
In this way, her importance and voice in the company will be greatly increased.
"I understand that based on our relationship, I support your investment, but whether it can succeed in the end depends on the opinions of the other three shareholders of [Jiaxing]."
"Okay, then I'll wait for Sister Mi. Your good news."
After hanging up the phone, Yang Mi thought quietly for a while, then called Zeng Jia and repeated exactly what Gu Wei told her just now. aside.
On the other side of the phone, Zeng Jia was silent for a while.
"This is a serious matter. You go back to the company first and we will discuss it together."
"Good"
[Jiaxing Media] Headquarters, President's Office.
Three ladies with different looks in professional attire were sitting in different locations in the room.
They are Zeng Jia, chairman and general manager of Jiaxing, Zhao Ruoyao, deputy general manager, and Li Juan, investment director.
Zeng Jia had already told the other two people about the news that Yang Mi had been brought back. The three people in the office were silent, thinking about the pros and cons of this matter for the company and themselves.
In fact, it was said that three people discussed it, but Zeng Jia was the only one who really made the decision.
As the deputy general manager, Zhao Ruoyao was the confidant brought up by Zeng Jia, and he always followed her lead.
Li Juan just joined the team this year and does not have a strong voice.
She had worked at PricewaterhouseCoopers for ten years and was specially recruited by Zeng Jia to conduct capital operations for [Jiaxing Media].
After a while, Yang Mi opened the door and came in.
Now that everyone is here, the four real talkers from [Jiaxing Media] have begun to discuss this matter.
"Mi Mi, what do you think about Gu Wei's investment?"
Zeng Jia first asked Yang Mi for his opinion.
She has been Yang Mi's agent since she was in Rong Xinda. The two met each other and worked together in the entertainment industry for ten years before they achieved what they have today.
It can be said that without her, there would be no Yang Mi today. Yang Mi, who has also become the top female star of the "85 Flowers", has also made Zeng Jia a success.
In [Jiaxing Media], only their will is the most important.
“I think the advantages of Gu Wei’s joining outweigh the disadvantages.
If nothing else, the resources of the company under his name are much better than ours.
No matter what Whether it is TV series or movies, our company is unmatched now.
The most important thing is that there are not many actors under his company. If we become a family, we will have these artists in the future. More opportunities.
Besides, you all know that the most popular TV series at the moment is "A Smile Is Alluring" produced by Gu Wei Company.
Not only did he make money, but he also produced a top-notch flower.
If he can join, Reba and the others will also have a chance in the future. ”
Yang Mi said a lot and also expressed his attitude.
Zeng Jia did not express her position immediately after hearing this. She frowned and did not ask her confidant Zhao Ruoyao, but turned to Newly added Li Juan
"I want to hear your opinion!"
Li Juan lowered his head and thought for a moment.
“From the perspective of capital operation, Gu Wei’s joining as a shareholder is definitely a good thing for the entire company.
First of all, if he appears as a shareholder, he will The capital level will greatly increase the valuation of our company.
Secondly, when other capital enters the market, a gambling agreement will definitely be indispensable. As a major shareholder, Gu Wei will not see the gambling fail and his own interests damaged. .
He will inevitably devote more resources to help the company develop.
So no matter how you look at it, his joining will help the company become bigger and stronger.
There are hundreds of advantages and no disadvantages. "
Zeng Jia nodded while listening.
"Since everyone agrees that Gu Wei's joining can indeed help us, then I will not be such a bad person.
Now let's discuss the subsequent distribution of the company's shares and what valuation to give him the shares.
Mimi, please call Gu Wei later and make an appointment with him. Let’s talk in person. It’s best to ask him for a written cooperation agreement before signing the contract.
In this way, we are not afraid that he will regret it after getting the shares. ”
Yang Mi opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but finally agreed with a "Okay"
She felt that Zeng Jia was a bit petty. Although her work seemed to be thorough and flawless, she felt that This agreement is completely redundant.
Doing this will only arouse Gu Wei's bad feeling. Since he agrees to join, it is very generous. We have become a family, and there will be many opportunities to work together in the future.
