Island Tycoon

Chapter 48 Strike Incident
Lei Juekun, smoking a pipe, raised his chin to signal Ye Jingcheng to check the check.One, ten, one hundred, one thousand... There are a total of 500 million on the check. In fact, Ye Jingcheng has already seen it from the corner of his eye, so he asked Lei Juekun what he meant.

"You're a smart boy, I'm sure you understand."

Seeing that Ye Jingcheng fell silent, Lei Juekun took a few puffs of cigarettes and continued, "Aren't you confident that this new drama can exceed 500 million? Then I'll give you [-] million and buy [-]% of your company's shares."

500 million is a venture capital investment for Lei Juekun.Ye Jingcheng's previous performance was good, but it doesn't mean that he will have smooth sailing in the future.

It can be seen that this is already Lei Juekun's biggest concession. He formed New Art City Films with Mecca and others. Although they only share 72% of the equity with Mecca (Golden Princess 51%, Mecca 49%), but All for less than a fifth of this check.

And this time the check for 500 million was directly put into Ye Jingcheng's pocket.In the future, if Ye Jingcheng wanted to make a film again, he would still provide the funds needed.

The reason why Ye Jingcheng remained silent was not because he was tempted by the money.It was the old man in front of him, whose courage was far beyond his imagination.At the very least, it is absolutely impossible for him to make such a move without fully understanding it himself.

In the end, Ye Jingcheng pushed back the check, and said calmly: "Lei Sheng, if you really want to invest in the shares, I can share [-]% of it, and I can't do any more. I hope you can understand."

The [-]% shares can be used as a bait, once Lei Juekun agrees.It's like giving Ye Jingcheng a buffer period, and he won't make any small moves in a short time.Ye Jingcheng believes that he can get out of this kind of dependent situation in two years at most.

Moreover, these [-]% shares are not the real shares of the company, but to be precise, they are just the bonus of the movie, and the main premise of this part of the bonus is the movie that will be shown in the Golden Princess.

The reason for the [-]% was because of Ye Jingcheng's careful consideration.The [-]% won't affect his future interests, and he can even help the film get a good schedule. This deal is not a loss, on the contrary, a good schedule will definitely increase the box office a lot.

Of course, with Lei Juekun's character and the gains and losses involved, he would never agree to such a request.

The two looked at each other, Lei Juekun sighed, and took back the check.He can't see through this young man at all. Isn't 500 million enough to tempt him?
Absolutely not, if it was replaced by the people of Mecca, let alone take 500% of the company's shares of 51 million shares, even if they are asked to give up 20% of the shares, there is no room for negotiation.

Lei Juekun dialed the landline at the front desk and asked the secretary to print out the corresponding contract.

The conditions are still the same as what Ye Jingcheng mentioned before. The films of Green Lantern Entertainment will be screened in Golden Princess, and there is no need to pay the theater's cover fee. Whether it is local or overseas box office, Golden Princess will play five in Green Lantern Entertainment.

After talking for nearly three hours, Ye Jingcheng came out of Lei Juekun's company. He stretched himself and felt the warm sunshine.Now that the problem of the film's release has been resolved, it's time to prepare for the overseas dividends of "Human Meat Roasting Shop".

……

"Wrong Yin and Yang" recording site.

Because of another supernatural incident, and someone took the lead in instigating it, the crew went on strike again.

"Big brothers, what exactly do you want?" If it wasn't for the show, Huang Jing would definitely kick them one by one, letting them get away if they wanted to.

"Add labor, and we won't start the show if we don't add labor." The person in charge of the negotiation set out the conditions.

Before Huang Jing spoke, Zhou Xingchi rolled up his sleeves, stood up and scolded: "You are a bloodbath, Ye Sheng has never treated you badly, and you are now taking the lead in making trouble?"

"Bah!" Lou Languang spit directly at Zhou Xingchi's feet.He booed: "It's haunted now, do you think it's fun? We are here to start working with our lives, how can Dou Ling's salary be enough?"

"Your wages are still low now? Everyone else is sixty a day, but now you are one hundred and twenty a day. Are you still not satisfied?" Huang Jing was furious.

"One hundred and two." Lou Languang snorted coldly, without saving any face, and said, "To be honest with you, if the labor is less than two hundred, we will go on strike."

"Strike." The employees behind Lou Languang unanimously broke out.

"You can replace us all if you have the ability."

"Yeah, fire us if we have the ability, and see if we go back and sing bad news about you."

These employees are as if they had been discussed in advance, and what you said and what I said raised the mood of other employees.Some employees who were just watching the excitement were also exaggerated at this time and joined the protest team.

"Brother Jing, how do you solve it? Call Ye Sheng?" Zhou Xingchi asked in a low voice.

Huang Jing closed her eyes and took a deep breath. If he can solve it alone, there is no need to trouble Ye Jingcheng any more. The problem is that he can't solve it now, so he uttered two words with difficulty: "Go fight."

Zhou Xingchi scratched his head and asked for instructions: "What should I say?"

Huang Jing glanced at Zhou Xingchi, and could only sigh, "You said that the production crew didn't have enough money, so tell him to send the money over immediately."

The salary of the staff of the crew can be finally settled, but the salary of these extras is calculated on a daily basis. The funds invested by him and Ye Jingcheng have bottomed out and are not enough to pay the salary this time.

Zhou Xingchi was stunned for a long time before responding with "Oh!" Huang Jing was in the rhythm of compromise, and then trotted all the way to Shiduodian.

Huang Jing was forced to do so out of helplessness, most of the troublemakers were borrowed from Shaw Brothers, without them, "Wrong Yin and Yang" could not have been completed as scheduled.Even if they are all fired, I believe that the Shaw Brothers, who is temporarily replaced by Fang Yihua, will never lend out even one more person.

No matter how dull Huang Jing's mind is, she can still guess that this matter has something to do with Fang Yihua, not to mention that he has an exquisite heart.It has already been thought that this series of haunted incidents may be planned by the other party.

"I have asked people to give feedback to the producer about the questions you raised, and I will definitely give you answers within today. Let me start all the work now. If anyone delays the post-production of the film, I will give you an extra basket of shit, so what?" Huang Huang Jing shouted to the staff in front of him.

"Cut, I can't even get a few thousand yuan, and I still have to apply to the higher authorities. If you don't have money, don't learn how to make movies." Lou Languang said emphatically, but he didn't gather people to make trouble anymore. Anyway, the desired effect has been achieved.

Zhou Xingchi trotted all the way to Shiduo store, and quickly dialed the company's landline number. Guan Zhilin still answered the phone. Zhou Xingchi said, "Hi, Secretary Guan, is Ye Sheng there?"

"You are Zhou Xingchi? The boss is in the office, what can you do with him?" Guan Zhilin asked on the other end of the phone.

"The set..." Zhou Xingchi became anxious, but at a loss, he said, "Anyway, there is something urgent, please call Ye Sheng for me."

"Oh!" Guan Zhilin obviously didn't want to talk to Zhou Xingchi's attitude.Said embarrassingly: "Wait a minute, the boss just went to the toilet, and I will transfer you to the inside line when I come back."

"Okay, okay, you can transfer me to the inside line." Actually, Ye Jingcheng didn't go to the bathroom at all, Guan Zhilin said that because he was dissatisfied with the other party's attitude, and deliberately asked him to be impatient for a few minutes.

There was finally a sound on the other end of the phone.Zhou Xingchi hurriedly said, "Hey, Ye Sheng..."

"Xingzi, is there any movement on the set?"

Ye Jingcheng learned the general situation of the scene from Zhou Xingchi.Ignoring Zhou Xingchi's excessive complaints, Ye Jingcheng agreed to the request for a salary increase, and hung up the phone after a few casual words.

After sitting for a while, Ye Jingcheng got up and took his coat, planning to go out for a while.Before leaving, he did not forget to tell Guan Zhilin: "Jiahui, I have something to go out, you watch the company."

With Guan Zhilin's personality, if she were to be alone in the company, she would definitely be suffocated to death.So he hurriedly got up and pestered Ye Jingcheng, and asked coquettishly, "Brother Cheng is going to the set? Can you bring him with you?"

Pushing the other person back on the chair, Ye Jingcheng said, "Who told you that I was going to the set? You just stay at the company obediently. If anyone comes to me, ask him to leave his name and phone number."

Guan Zhilin wanted to say something again, but found that Ye Jingcheng had left the company and got on the elevator of the building.

Coming downstairs from the company, Ye Jingcheng hailed a taxi.

"Where are you going, sir?" the taxi driver asked.

"Hong Kong Island Commodity Exchange." Ye Jingcheng said the destination this time while putting on his coat.

Thirty minutes by car.

Ye Jingcheng came to this starting place again.It has been a while since the last contact with Yuan Tianfan, this time it is time to have a good talk with him.

"Brother Fan." The two hugged as soon as they came into contact, and Ye Jingcheng smiled and said, "Should I congratulate you on your promotion first?"

"Brother Ye, you are too far-fetched, please sit inside." Yuan Tianfan's face was radiant.In fact, the two have been in contact by phone, and Yuan Tianfan's promotion has already happened last month.

When we first met, he was still an office manager, but now he has been promoted to a department manager.Although the titles of the two positions are the same, the difference in rights is heaven and earth.

After the assistant served tea for the two of them, Yuan Tianfan sent them away.

Then Yuan Tianfan opened the side drawer, took out one of the document bags from various documents, and handed it to the other party, saying: "Brother Ye, the documents you brought over last time have been evaluated by professionals. it's here."

Ye Jingcheng nodded, then looked through the stack of documents.

The information he sent before involved himself and Qingdeng Entertainment Film Co., Ltd. The reason why he gave these information to Yuan Tianfan was to raise a sum of money through the supporting bank behind the Hong Kong Island Commodity Exchange.

The contents of the document are various, including the evaluation of his own credit, assets, and potential, as well as the review of Qingdeng Entertainment's liquidity, box office records, and market prospects. Each item is a prerequisite for increasing the loan amount.

Ye Jingcheng glanced at it roughly, and finally locked his eyes on a string of numbers.
