Huayu, my wife, I support myself

Chapter 331 332. Don't be afraid to feed yourself【Subscription】

Start with the viewing session of "The Truman Show".

Zeng Jia started to prepare for the integration of theater chains.

It is impossible for Lu Chen to make every movie like "The Truman Show".

Even if he has been able to make such movies, it is impossible for several major theaters to always give way to him.

therefore.

Integrating theater chains has become their top priority at this stage.

Jinchan Building, office.

Zeng Jia said with a smile: "Director Lu, with my hard work during this time, several theater chains have expressed their willingness to cooperate with us."

Lu Chen was slightly taken aback.

The so-called cooperation does not mean selling theaters.

As far as Lu Chen knew, not all theater chains were in the hands of several major entertainment companies.

They, Jiaxing Media, want to be promoted to the top entertainment company in the entertainment industry.

You have to hold the theater line.

The top five entertainment companies in the entertainment industry basically have their own distribution channels in their hands.

but.

Not all theaters are controlled by these entertainment companies.

So, this is their chance!

Under the pressure of these top production companies, the other theaters are really not very happy!
Lu Chen looked at the report Zeng Jia handed him.

Said: "Let's focus on Dongfang Entertainment and Kyushu Entertainment."

compared to other cinemas.

The scale of these two is definitely the largest, as can be seen from the data,
These two were considered large entertainment companies before.

The scale is also a bit worse than the current Jiaxing Media, but the gap is not very big.

At their peak, they could even compete with the top five entertainment companies with theater chains.

But now it's gone.

Under the pressure of several major production companies, it gradually declined.

Although it has declined, it is not comparable to other entertainment companies.

Of course, it is definitely incomparable with the current Jiaxing Media.

"Director Lu, you don't want to take both of them into your pocket, do you?"

"Can't you?" Lu Chen said lightly: "If you don't accept it now, you will have no chance in the future. Moreover, as long as we take a step forward, it will be difficult to accept it next time. Simply put, we only have one chance. If you are not full, it is impossible to get full next time."

"I understand!" Zeng Jia nodded.

They had to take these two families directly under their command before the others could react.

if not.

Someone will definitely mess with them.

The theaters under these two companies are not the only ones staring at them.

Several entertainment companies in the entertainment industry are also watching.

The difference between them and Jiaxing Media is that.

They are waiting.

When these two theaters can't bear it by themselves, they will be included in the pockets of these two theaters at the smallest cost.

But Lu Chen and the others wanted to make an early move.

Even if it costs more.

Nor is it unacceptable.

Of course, this price has to be within their psychological expectations.

Two days later.

Lu Chen fulfilled his wish and met the people from the Oriental Cinema.

"This is Cai Ran, the vice chairman of Oriental Cinemas." Zeng Jia introduced to Lu Chen.

The person who came was about in his early 40s, with a capable figure, and his black hair was tied up, revealing a kind of intellectual and capable.

You can tell it's the type of Iron Lady at a glance.

"Cai understands well."

Lu Chen shook hands with him.

The other party smiled and said: "It seems that I met Director Lu for the first time, and I am younger than I imagined. I hope to get in touch with you more in the future. Whether we can talk or not, we are very interested in Director Lu's films. "

Lu Chen said: "Similarly, I am also very interested in your distribution channels."

Lu Chen didn't have the kind of cloud and mist that wandered around like a philistine businessman.

He prefers to be straightforward.

"Is Director Lu ready to make up for his shortcomings?"

Lu Chen said lightly: "It can also be said that this is indeed the disadvantage of Jiaxing Media."

"So, we have a basis for cooperation." Seeing Lu Chen going straight to the point, Cai Ran also said straight to the point.

"So, what do you want?"

There is no such thing as a free lunch in the world. Of course Lu Chen wants the Oriental Theater, but that doesn't mean he can let the other side talk.

of course.

Lu Chen also knew that the other party would not give up this theater easily.

As for why Oriental Cinemas and Kyushu Cinemas were chosen.

The reason is also very simple,
That is, their foundation is relatively shallow, and the channels in their hands can be said to be No.1 under several major distribution companies.

"Cross shareholding."

The so-called cross-shareholding, also known as mutual shareholding or mutual shareholding, cross-shareholding refers to the phenomenon that different companies participate in each other's shares to achieve a special purpose.

Cai Ran's answer was somewhat unexpected to Lu Chen. At this moment, Lu Chen also understood why the other party had to come to see him.

Because only Lu Chen can decide this matter.

Because he is the real boss of Jiaxing Media.

and also!

The other party should not want money!

Jiaxing Media is not short of money, as long as the other party's asking price is not too high.

Lu Chen would basically agree.

It's just that the other party didn't have the idea of ​​just grabbing a wave and leaving.

But want to cooperate with them.

To be precise, it is an exchange of interests.

Thinking of this, a smile appeared on Lu Chen's face, and Lu Chen said, "Cooperation is also possible, but I want to know, how much stock do you plan to exchange for Jiaxing Media with Oriental Cinemas?"

Since the other party can't wait to come over and find them to cooperate.

Lu Chen can be sure.

The opponent may really not be able to bear it and continue to resist.

Maybe it won't be long before it will become a meal for several other major entertainment companies.

At this time, they went to Jiaxing Media.

They definitely want to take the opportunity to make a fortune, and they are sure.

Lu Chen will definitely be interested in their theaters.

Because it will be extremely difficult for Lu Chen to get his own distribution channel after they are eaten by the big players.

Even if you can get it,

For the entire huge market, it will not play much role.

simply put.

At that time, even if Lu Chen can integrate those sporadic theaters.

There is not much right to speak.

in fact.

Both of them can be regarded as open and honest.

One side wants to make a move.

One party wants to accept.

Now it depends on how much Lu Chen and the others are willing to pay.

According to Lu Chen's idea.

"The Truman Show" and "Kung Fu Panda" add up all the benefits of each other.

It is basically the same if you eat the Oriental Cinemas.

Then borrow some money.

Feel free to eat Kyushu theaters.

All right.

But now, the other party didn't have the idea of ​​just grabbing a wave and leaving.

want to work with them.

This is a bit difficult for Lu Chen.

Lu Chen still has some ideas about Jiaxing Media's future market value.

Not to mention the benchmark att.

At least it can stand shoulder to shoulder with Disney,

In Lu Chen's opinion.

This shouldn't be a problem.

The issue is.

The current Jiaxing Media is compared with the other party.

Just a little brother.

Now it is said that Jiaxing Media can rival Disney.

Who believes?

It is estimated that apart from himself, it is difficult to find another believer.

This is also the reason why he has been clinging to the shares in his hand and has no intention of giving them up.

Give less.

If others are uncomfortable, if you give too much, it will be his turn to feel uncomfortable.

"For cooperation, of course both parties must be satisfied."

Cai Ran said, "We will invest in Jiaxing through the Oriental Cinema Line. As for the share, we will discuss it later."

The opponent is very straightforward.

Even a little fearless.

If they are really willing to give up the Oriental Cinemas, many entertainment companies are really interested.

As for why he has been holding on tightly.

The reason should be very simple, that is, reluctance.

Want to thrash to death and struggle.

The other party's request is very simple, that is, they want the shares of Jiaxing Media.

Based on this.

Lu Chen really had a headache.

It's not that he doesn't want to give, it's just that he doesn't want to give too much.

If they don't give too much, how can the other party give them the Oriental Cinemas.

This is also the reason why they have been unable to negotiate with Penguin Film and Television.

That is, the other party has been negotiating with them based on Jiaxing Media's current market value.

Talking to them with the current market value, Lu Chen really felt that it was too much of a loss.

"If you are willing to sell, I am willing to buy it at a price that is [-]% higher than the current value of the Oriental Cinema. If you insist on exchanging the Oriental Cinema for the shares of Jiaxing Media, it is very likely that you will return disappointed!" Lu Chen said lightly.

"Director Lu is unwilling to give up Jiaxing Media's shares?" Cai Ran asked curiously.

"Not really." Lu Chen shook his head.

"Director Lu thinks it's not worthwhile to talk about Jiaxing Media's current market value?" Cai Ran asked curiously.

"Yes." Lu Chen answered simply.

Although it is a bit unacceptable, that's what he thinks.

"But Director Lu is not worried about missing this opportunity, and Jiaxing Media will not care about growing to the position that Director Lu expected?" Cai Ran said leisurely.

"No, without the Oriental Cinema Line, Jiaxing Media will have a difficult time at most, and it will not stagnate because of the absence of the Oriental Cinema Line. The biggest benefit to us is that we will not go far. Take a detour." Regarding this, Lu Chen was very sure.

"Director Lu is very confident!" Cai Ran sighed.

"of course."

"Then I'll choose the second way of cooperation." Cai Ran said with a smile: "It's still the same sentence, we use the Oriental Cinema Line to invest in Jiaxing Media. As for the share, let's talk about it."

The other party made a choice so quickly, which made Lu Chen a little stunned.

That's all for now.

Since the other party wants to talk, let's talk.

However, the other party must not be disappointed.

of course.

Lu Chen would not be crazy enough to negotiate with the other party with Disney's market value.

But it is one or two times higher than it is now.

it is necessary.

Otherwise, it would be a real loss for them.

As for the specific negotiations, I left it to Zeng Jia. In terms of business negotiations,

She is professional.

Lu Chen just needs to agree to cooperate.

Jiaxing Media wanted a theater chain, and the other party wanted Jiaxing Media's shares.

From this point of view.

The other party is still very optimistic about Jiaxing Media.

Otherwise, there is no reason to choose this unsafe way of cooperation.

Wouldn't it be better to just take the money directly?

Apart from continuing to talk with Cai Ran, Lu Chen and the others did not give up on Kyushu Entertainment.

The situation over there is similar to that of Dongfang Entertainment.

I can't bear it anymore.

only.

They don't have Cai Ran's vision anymore.

I don't like the shares of Jiaxing Media, but I like the price they offer.

It's even better if you look at the price, and Lu Chen didn't hesitate too much.

With a big wave of his hand, he threw all the proceeds from "Kung Fu Panda" and "The Truman Show" to the other party.

After the other party sees their offer.

Without hesitation, he signed his name in the transfer contract.

This is the end.

Kyushu Cinemas, a subsidiary of Kyushu Entertainment, officially belongs to Jiaxing Media.

of course.

These are all done in secret and have not been announced to the public.

After all, the Oriental Cinemas haven't reached an agreement yet.

If at this time they announce the news of the acquisition of Kyushu Entertainment's theater chain.

It is very likely that their negotiations with the Oriental Cinemas will be disrupted.

A week after accepting Kyushu Cinemas.

Jiaxing Media and Oriental Entertainment have established a preliminary cooperative relationship.

They are finally going to win the Oriental Cinemas.

As for the reason why the other party made concessions!
It's a bit of a joke.

Cai Ran and the others chose to retreat after seeing Jiaxing Media's offer to Kyushu Entertainment.

simply put.

Through this incident, they knew that the shares they wanted were far more valuable in Lu Chen's heart than the 126 small targets paid to Kyushu Entertainment.

Otherwise, Lu Chen has no reason to disagree.

However, their concessions meant that the risks they had to bear increased.

finally.

Lu Chen and the others paid [-]% of Jiaxing Media's shares.

Officially acquired Oriental Cinemas under Oriental Entertainment.

it looks.

Jiaxing Media made a lot of money.

actually not.

It was the other party who made a lot of money.

Among other things, if they reveal the news of accepting the Oriental Theater Circuit and the Kyushu Cinema Circuit.

The market value of Jiaxing Media will skyrocket again.

Not to mention double or double.

Adding a few hundred small goals is definitely a no-brainer.

Because it means that they no longer have shortcomings and will no longer be constrained by other distribution companies.

Several major entertainment companies in the country, if they want to suppress them, they have to come with real swords and guns.

Than a real knife and a real gun.

Who are they afraid of?

……

the other side.

After Cai Ran and the others signed their names, they didn't regret it much.

But my heart is not sure.

"Are you really optimistic about Jiaxing Media?" Another director asked Cai Ran.

They are willing to sign their names.

The big reason is because of Cai Ran, who convinced them.

In contrast, they are more inclined to the cooperation between Jiaxing Media and Kyushu Entertainment.

"I'm optimistic about Lu Chen." Cai Ran shook her head and said, "He is the real helm of Jiaxing Media. It’s for making money and making money, it’s all about making a quick buck, as for the others, they don’t seem to be too prominent.”

"Oh! Isn't it?" Another director asked suspiciously.

"I think Lu Chen has been making arrangements." Cai Ran didn't hide anything, and said directly: "From the time he bought Kyushu Cinemas for 126 billion without hesitation, I understood that he has been making arrangements."

"How to say?" Suddenly, several directors of Dongfang Entertainment became interested.

"With his talent, it shouldn't be difficult to create a universe movie similar to Marvel and DC." Cai Ran said confidently.

Hearing what Cai Ran said,

Several other directors were stunned.

They really can't refute this, if it is someone else.

They absolutely don't believe it,

But for Lu Chen, they had to believe it.

Others don't know.

Lu Chen definitely has this ability.

Therefore, there is only one truth, that is, Lu Chen feels that the time has not come yet.

As for when the time is right.

It should be soon.

After Jiaxing Media integrated their Oriental Cinemas and Kyushu Cinemas.

There should be no short board.

There is no short board, which means that there is no need to worry about getting stuck.

Don't worry about getting stuck in the neck.

Then it can develop unscrupulously.

What kind of explosion will Jiaxing Media, which has no shortcomings, usher in?
They don't know.

However, this moment.

But they understood that they really didn't lose money in this wave.

And there is a faint possibility of making a lot of money.

If Jiaxing Media can reach the level of Disney's entertainment company in the future.

How much is eight percent of the shares worth?
Hiss!

Thinking of this, several directors could not help but take a breath.

……

Lu Chen wanted to engage in theater chains, which meant that Jiaxing wanted to go further, and Jiaxing who went further, the probability of making mistakes was almost zero.

Oriental Cinemas is not a big gamble this time.

It can only be said to be bold and cautious, a little adventurous.

However, the risk is well worth the risk.

In their hands, Oriental Cinemas is a hot potato.

Why not throw this hot potato to Lu Chen and bet on the future of Jiaxing Media.

In a word.

Lu Chen used the past few years to convince everyone that following him would lead to a full meal.

It also made Oriental Cinemas believe that Jiaxing Media will go further in the future.

Although the gamble is high,
But it's worth blogging about.

The Oriental Cinemas and Kyushu Cinemas fell into the pockets of Jiaxing Media, but they still did not escape the attention of the industry.

Especially after the Oriental Cinemas changed their licenses, countless people in my industry couldn't help but take a long breath of air.

Jiaxing Media has directly made up for its shortcomings.

And it's too harsh.

It would be nice to be able to accept one family, but I didn't expect Jiaxing Media to accept both of them directly.

Don't be afraid of being overwhelmed.

In an instant, several major domestic entertainment companies were stunned.

Lu Chen must be crazy.

Are you not afraid to support yourself?

The combination of Oriental Cinemas and Kyushu Cinemas directly made Jiaxing Media the number one voice in the field of cinemas.

"Oriental Cinemas and Kyushu Cinemas have been acquired?"

"So fast?"

"I didn't see that the name has been changed. Lu Chen has made it clear that he wants to build his own entertainment empire. Can the other companies tolerate Jiaxing Media's behavior?"

"In other people's hands, theaters may be a hot potato, but in Lu Chen's hands, they are just like a tiger with wings..."

……

When Lu Chen signed his name on the cooperation agreement.

It's also time for alarm bells to ring. .

To know,
Jiaxing Media, which has no theaters, has been able to rank among the top seven in China.

Now that there is a theater chain, it is obvious that the sword is pointing to the position of the leader.

For an instant.

Jiaxing Media has become a thorn in the side of several other companies.

Lu Chen also understood.

As long as they dare to get involved in theaters, the war will begin.

However, Lu Chen didn't care.

They are already invincible after taking over the Oriental Cinemas and Kyushu Cinemas.
