Chapter 248: Annexing Zhouyi, Huayi goes public
At the celebration banquet of "Time Cruise", Lin Nan met Jiang Yanrou for the first time.
At that time, he had the idea of eating Zhouyi.
It has been more than three years now.
A few days ago, Lin Nan asked Yue Jun to have one final contact with Jiang Qianrou...
Got a reply today.
"How is it?" Lin Nan looked at Yue Jun who walked into the office and asked.
"She invited us to go to the Book of Changes."
There was no expression on Yue Jun's face.
“Still stalling?” Lin Nan frowned slightly.
"No, Jiang Yuerou said that he hopes we will go over to see Zhouyi Company and then have an interview.
Whether it succeeds or not, he will definitely give us an accurate answer."
Hearing this, Lin Nan I understand.
"Haha, the last bargain! Then bring a few professional employees and we will go there together..."
"Well, I will book the tickets now."
Lin Nan told Liu Yifei that she was going on a business trip, so that she would not be able to see him and call again in the evening.
Lin Nan, Yue Jun and a few people appeared at the airport, which quite attracted the attention of reporters.
But they just couldn't guess what Lin Nan and others were going to do, so they could only send out a press release directly.
“Director Lin Nan and his party boarded the plane, the destination is unknown...”
……
At around three o'clock in the afternoon, the group landed in Coconut City.
This weather is much hotter than the capital.
Lin Nan's thoughts unconsciously drifted to that time in 2005.
The time I came here, I took "Into the Dust" to participate in the Golden Rooster, and started filming "Time Cruiser" at the same time.
As a result, at the award ceremony, someone else carried the sedan in a confused way.
But it was also that time when Liu Yifei boldly took the first step.
The girl sneaked over from Hollywood early to visit his class, which made Liu Xiaoli very angry.
"Director Lin, why are you laughing?"
Yue Jun asked suspiciously.
“It’s nothing, I thought of something very unforgettable.” Lin Nan couldn’t help but smile.
Although Zhou Yi's current financial situation is not good, there is still a car available to pick him up from the airport.
"Director Lin, Director Yue, shall we go back to the company?"
The few people from Zhouyi Company who came to pick up the plane were cautious.
Not only because Lin Nan is one of the few great directors in the industry, but also because the future boss of the company will most likely be him.
There is tension and there is also excitement!
"Okay, let's go."
Several cars were speeding on the highway, heading towards Zhou Yi's headquarters.
At this time, except for the contracted actors and those on the crew of "Peacock Feather", all the employees of Zhouyi Company are here.
“I’m really impatient.” Jiang Yuerou sighed.
She only replied to Yue Jun in the morning, and he arrived in the afternoon.
Jiang Yuerou walked around and around the various departments of the company.
It has been more than ten years, and many of them are old people who have stayed in Zhouyi since they entered the industry. She is very reluctant to let go.
But, so what if you don’t want to give up.
Selling to Lin Nan may be the best outcome. At least everyone can still work in this industry.
“Mr. Jiang, do we really want to sell our company to Lin Nan Pictures?”
The head of the screenwriting department asked. He was asking on behalf of all screenwriters.
Jiang Yuerou smiled helplessly.
"Well, let's talk about this when they come over. Maybe we can still work together, but don't call me Mr. Jiang in the future..."
Everyone knows it well Ming, the company has not been as good as every year in recent years. It is just trying to survive, but now it cannot survive.
"Mr. Jiang, Director Lin and the others are coming soon."
An executive answered the phone and came over to report.
For a moment, the surroundings became quiet, and you could even hear breathing.
“Well, I understand.”
…………
Lin Nan has arrived.
I heard that Zhou Yi’s office location has not changed in so many years.
There are many smaller film and television media companies in this area, and someone recognized Lin Nan.
"Director Lin Nan! Why is he here?"
It wasn't until Jiang Yuerou's figure appeared that many people realized that Lin Nan came to Zhouyi.
"Director Lin, Director Yue, welcome. Please follow me into the company."
"Mr. Jiang, please."
......
The news of Lin Nan's appearance in Zhouyi was posted on Weibo and expanded rapidly.
Jiang Yuerou took Lin Nan and his party to visit the company.
Zhou Yi is quite big, not only in this office location, but also in his age and seniority.
Lin Nan saw Zhou Yi's achievements over the years in the work exhibition room.
Starting from "Qinghe Jue Lian", "Wulin Foreign History", "Li Wei Becomes an Official", "Young King", "Xiao Shiyilang", "Shuiyue Cave"...
"Director Lin, let's go to the conference room?"
"Listen to Mr. Jiang."
Lin Nan is very curious, why did he only see Jiang Yuerou and his husband today?
In the conference room, in front of the long table, there were Lin Nan and his group on one side, and Jiang Yanrou, Zhou Yi's financial director and others on the other side.
Lin Nan originally thought that the interview would be a drawn-out bargaining, but it turned out to be nothing like that. Zhou Yi really couldn't hold on any longer.
And what surprised him was that even though his financial situation was so bad, he still managed to continue filming "Peacock Feathers".
……
……
The outside world is very lively right now.
Everyone in the circle knew that Lin Nan took Yue Jun to Zhouyi, and various speculations appeared on the Internet.
“Is there any project cooperation?”
“Director Lin Nan has agreed to invest?”
……
Cai Yinong also saw this news. She knew the glory of Zhou Yi in the past.
That is a company that can calm down and produce good dramas...
"How could a big company with a big director invest in the dying Zhou Yi? What a joke..."
Cai Yinong laughed, and suddenly, she thought of another possibility. "No way?"
...
Lin Nan and Yue Jun listened to Jiang Yuerou's "offer".
"Assume all the debts of Zhouyi."
"Support the successful completion of "Peacock Ling"."
"Accept all the employees of Zhouyi. I know that Director Lin is interested in the screenwriter , lighting and photography departments.”
"Give me a sum of money..."
...
Jiang Yuerou said a lot in bits and pieces.
When she looked at Lin Nan with questioning eyes, the latter seemed very indifferent.
"I agree to all these conditions, and I will be my own person from now on. I will treat all the employees of the company to a meal tonight..."
In Lin Nan's view, the most valuable people in Zhouyi are those people, and there are still a small number of copyrights left in their hands.
Jiang Yuerou showed a relaxed expression, letting go, it was really relaxing.
“From now on, I will concentrate on working for Director Lin.”
“Haha, you’re welcome.”
……
In the evening, Yue Jun booked a star hotel and hosted a banquet for everyone in Zhouyi.
After a while, there will be no more Zhouyi.
Lin Nan, Yue Jun, Jiang Yuerou, and several Zhouyi executives sat at the same table.
He finally knew why he didn’t see Jiang Yuerou’s husband today.
Not everyone has dreams, and not everyone can persevere.
The extra money Jiang Yuerou asked for was the divorce signing fee. The man no longer wanted to do this business, and both of them had problems and they went their separate ways.
The next day, Jiang Yuerou personally sent Lin Nan and his party to the airport.
"Director Lin, we will pack it up as soon as possible."
"Well, I will hold a reception banquet for you then."
——
Came yesterday and went back today.
Lin Nan's mood was completely different.
When the group of people exited the Capital Airport, they were instantly surrounded by reporters squatting on guard.
"Director Lin, are you going to Zhouyi to discuss cooperation?"
"Are you going to collaborate on a TV series or a movie?"
"We have discussed cooperation, and everyone will know in a few days."
Without further words, a few people quickly got into the car.
Back at the company, Lin Nan ordered Yue Jun to disperse Zhou Yi's people when the time comes.
"Establish a new screenwriting department and production department, and let Jiang Yuerou be the director of the production department."
"Well, I will make arrangements later."
Lin Nan has basically bought "Peacock Feathers". If possible, he will support filming all of "Seven Weapons".
…………
Three days later, Jiang Yuerou was the first to report to the company, followed closely by all the original Zhou Yi people.
It’s just that from now on, everyone will be from Lin Nan Pictures, not Zhou Yi anymore.
Yue Junyong Company’s official Weibo posted two messages.
"Welcome Ms. Jiang Yanrou to join Lin Nan Pictures as the director of the production department."
"Welcome colleagues from the former Zhou Yi to join Lin Nan Pictures..."
These two messages After it was released, the film and television industry was shocked.
The Book of Changes, which had existed for more than ten years, was swallowed up by Lin Nan!
“Now, he has completely made up for the shortcomings of the TV series...”
Many film and television companies are aware of this problem.
Lin Nan Pictures has grown to this point without knowing it!
Congratulatory messages keep coming.
Han Sanping, Wang Changtian and others even called directly.
“You always do big things quietly, but at critical moments you scare people!”
"Haha, Mr. Han is joking. It takes too much time to develop on your own. It's faster this way..."
...
Cai Yinong didn't expect that he guessed right.
Lin Nan, who swallowed the Book of Changes, will most likely never cooperate with the Tang people again in the future.
Now there is only one investment relationship left for a TV series.
Just as the industry was intensely discussing Lin Nan's acquisition of Zhou Yi, another bigger news came.
Huayi was successfully listed on the GEM!
The first mainland film and television entertainment company listed on the local GEM was born.
The Wang brothers successfully ate crabs!
The issue price was 28.58 yuan, and the stock price soared to 91 yuan on the day of listing...
Huayi originally planned to raise 700 million by issuing additional shares through its listing, but actually received several times the amount.
For a time, China Film, Shanghai Film, Bona, Guangguang...
The eyes of these groups or companies that had long been planning to go public were all red.
Like a shot of blood, insiders once again pulled out the list of shareholders previously announced by Huayi.
Calculated based on the highest stock price of the day.
Feng Xiaogang, Zhang Jizhong, and Huang Xiaoming are all worth hundreds of millions, Zhou Xun is worth over 90 million, and Ren Quan, Li Bingbing, etc. are all worth over 30 million.
Although these stocks cannot be traded within one year, and the stock prices will fluctuate, this does not affect their current value at all.
A lot of eyes are on Lin Nan again, just because he has eight million shares!
700 million!
……
"Lin Nan, you are so amazing, hehe..."
Liu Yifei hugged Lin Nan's neck and kissed her hard. She was so excited that she didn't notice Liu Xiaoli in the distance at all.
"Okay, okay, Auntie is watching."
Lin Nan said softly, Liu Yifei instantly let go of her hand and glanced in the direction of Liu's mother, her cheeks were red, she was very cute... …
At this time, the phone vibrated.
The caller ID showed Zhou Xun.
“Brother Xun, you must be here to thank me.”
Lin Nan said with a smile. In front of Liu Yifei, she directly turned on the speaker phone.
A heroic laughter came from the phone, "Lin Nan, I love you to death, haha..."
