275.Chapter 275 Unexpected Gamble
Tuesday, March 16, 1999.
Today is the meeting time agreed by Lei Luo and Andy Lau to discuss the acquisition of Tianmu.
It was originally scheduled for Saturday last week, but Andy Lau had something to do, so he had to change it today.
The actual controller of Tianmu Company is no longer Andy Lau.
When the company was in debt, Andy Lau mortgaged the company to Yu Tianlin.
Now Andy Lau just has shares in it.
It is better to say that it is not so much a share as a debt, because Tianmu has already lost 40-50 million Hong Kong dollars!
In the past few years, Andy Lau has become a rotten film machine and has been making films to pay off debts. He has already paid back a lot!
Lei Luo arrived at a conference room on the eighth floor of the Central Prince Building at the time agreed with Andy Lau’s assistant.
A little beauty brought in Lei Luo and his party, made some tea, and left.
Sima Jun and Mei Jiahui came with Lei Luo.
The renovation of the orphanage has been on the right track, and Mei Jiahui has also moved out of her residence in Kowloon and lives in Lei Luo’s hilltop villa.
Lei Luo saw that Mei Jiahui was fine for the time being, so she asked her to come over and listen. She can also help with some follow-up things!
Of course, in order to facilitate her actions in the future, she was given a position-the secretary to the general manager of Moluo Entertainment Company!
The three of them arrived more than ten minutes early. This is Lei Luo’s usual style of doing things. A little earlier, he can always seize some opportunities!
Especially the first time!
“How is it?” Lei Luo looked at Mei Jiahui, who looked shrewd and capable in a professional attire, and asked quietly.
“Waiting for the meeting, there should be Yu Tianlin, the current general manager of Tianmu, and an investor, who seems to be surnamed Mai.” Mei Jiahui quickly got together with the little sister who was hosting them, and asked for some information.
“Mai Shaotang?” Lei Luo was stunned. Has he already reorganized the sky? From the memory of previous lives, it shouldn’t be there yet!
Sima Jun yawned, his eyes still covered with two dark circles.
“Brother Jun, we will negotiate with them later. If you are sleepy, go back and rest first.”
“Don’t worry, there is me here.” Lei Luo looked at Sima Jun playfully, and gave him an expression of peace of mind.
“You~”, Sima Jun immediately dozed off, and was furious, and was about to turn his face on the spot.
Mei Jiahui, who was on the side, flushed even more, as cute as a red apple!
If it weren’t for here, Lei Luo really wanted to go up and give him a kiss!
Last night, Lei Luo and Mei Jiahui worked from night to early morning!
The movement of the two was so loud that Sima Jun couldn’t listen to the bed!
After listening to it all night, it finally reached the wee hours of the morning, and Sima Jun had gone to bed again, and could not fall asleep tossing and turning!
In the morning, they finally fell asleep, and as a result, they had another morning exercise!
f*ck, you can’t sleep at all!
Mei Jiahui glared at Lei Luo who was smug!
Last night Lei Luo lied to her and said that Sima Jun had already left. She believed it to be true, but she did not answer!
When I got up this morning, I found out that Sima Jun was next to them!
When Sima Jun saw her, the sad look in his eyes made her want to find a place to sew and drill down!
Mei Jiahui got up late yesterday morning, but it didn’t matter much.
Sima Jun caught the plane in the morning and got up early, but when he came to Lei Luo, he didn’t sleep much at all. Can he not have dark circles under his eyes?
“Hey, Mr. Lei, I’m sorry, we are late.” After hearing the familiar Cantonese Mandarin, Lei Luo saw Andy Lau in a formal suit and full of energy.”This is the CEO of our Tianmu company, Mr. Yu Tianlin”
“This is the investor who will join our company, Mr. Mai Shaotang”, Andy Lau introduced Lei Luo one by one.
Seeing Mei Jiahui next to him, Andy Lau was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and nodded to her immediately.
Mei Jiahui also politely smiled with Andy Lau, saying hello!
Lei Luo also introduced Sima Jun and Mei Jiahui, they were sitting across from a long table.
“Hua Tsai, I don’t think today’s meeting is necessary at all. With my capital, Sky Screen can be restarted completely without outsiders’ participation.” Mai Shaotang said directly to Andy Lau as soon as he sat down.
Mai Shaotang didn’t even look at Lei Luo. He didn’t know where the hairy young man came out and came here to mess around!
He felt that today’s meeting was a waste of time. With this time, it’s better to think about what to do in the follow-up canopy.
“Mai is always? I think so too. If you have something, you can go to work first.” Lei Luo politely replied to Mai Shaotang.
“Young people, shopping malls are cruel, so scary, and not suitable for you”, Mai Shaotang opened his mouth wide and threatened.
In fact, there was nothing for him today. He heard that another investor had come, and he was very reluctant, so he had to follow him cheeky.
At present, he and Tianmu have only reached a preliminary verbal agreement, and he will invest in the reorganization of Tianmu!
He has already understood the current financial situation of Tianmu, and there is not much debt left!
This is all the hard-earned money that Andy Lau has been working hard to pay off his debts in recent years!
Who knew that Lei Luo appeared at this juncture, which is really irritating!
Originally, he wanted to persuade the sky to not talk about credit, and negotiate with other investors.
But this is a commercial society, after all, the contract was not signed!
“Oh? I think that you are too old, and the entertainment industry may not be able to stand it. It’s better to go home early and enjoy the good fortune”, Lei Luo looked at the short and thin Mai Shaotang, and retorted unceremoniously. .
Mai Shaotang was blowing his beard and staring, but he couldn’t help Lei Luo!
Looking at Andy Lau and Yu Tianlin next to them, it is obvious that they remain neutral, and neither side should be guilty!
“Well, you said you want to acquire Tianmu, then tell me, what plan do you have for Tianmu’s future development?” Mai Shaotang asked.
At this time, I got the idea. Andy Lau, who was going to be the peacemaker, also calmed down and looked at Lei Luo steadily.
“Of course it was shooting a few big-selling movies,” Lei Luo said with a smile.
“The films before the curtain of the sky have never been sold. You will sell them as soon as you come? Are you a lie?” Mai Shaotang said disdainfully.
Both Andy Lau and Yu Tianlin who were present were embarrassed. Except for the first film “The Couple of Nine-One Condor Heroes”, all of them were at a loss.
Hong Kong Island commercial film director Wang Jin once commented on Andy Lau’s canopy:
He is chasing his movie dream, not in business!
“Well, then, I know that Hua Ge’s “Gambling Man vs. Las Vegas” will be released soon. Why don’t we guess at the box office and see who has a good eye?” Lei Luo said with a smile.
“Okay, let’s talk about it,” Mai Shaotang said disdainfully, to see what tricks this kid wants to play.
Mai Shaotang still has some ability. After he entered the sky, he made a few films. At least he didn’t lose money, and it meant to come back to life!
But later broke with Andy Lau and brought Andy Lau to court, claiming 150 million Hong Kong dollars!
In the end, although Andy Lau asked someone to borrow 50 million out of court to settle the debt, he has since become a rotten movie machine to pay off the debt, which seems to have become an endless loop of his fate!
Therefore, Mai Shaotang is definitely a cold-blooded businessman, like a poisonous snake, waiting for the opportunity to bite you at any time!
For such a person, Lei Luo will never cooperate, he must be kicked out as soon as possible!
“In order to add a little bit of entertainment, I think we still have to add a little bit of color.” Lei Luo smiled and looked at Mai Shaotang, his voice slowly turning cold.
“Oh? I’m happy to accompany you.” Mai Shaotang stared at Lei Luo with disdain, took out a cigarette, and banged it on.
“Eight million Hong Kong dollars, plus Tianmu’s exclusive acquisition rights,” Lei Luo said with a smile.
Andy Lau and Yu Tianlin are embarrassed again. These two people are here to talk about the acquisition unscrupulously, when they don’t exist?
“So confident? So what is your expected box office?” Mai Shaotang was finally a little moved. Could this kid come prepared?
“Twenty million Hong Kong Island box office,” Lei Luo said with a smile.
The box office on the mainland is simply impossible to calculate, because piracy is too serious. Only the box office on Hong Kong Island can be credible and convincing!
“If the Hong Kong Island box office is less than 20 million Hong Kong dollars, even if I lose,” Lei Luo added.
“Oh?” Mai Shaotang glanced at Lei Luo suspiciously, this kid came for real?
Now the entire Hong Kong Island movie has fallen, and the box office has basically not exceeded 30 million!
“The King of Comedy”, which was just broadcast in January, has a box office of less than 30 million Hong Kong dollars!
But the starring role is Stephen Chow!
In this era, Stephen Chow’s box office influence is on the same level as Jackie Chan and Chow Yun-fat.
“Glass Bottle”, which was just broadcast in February, has successfully exceeded 20 million Hong Kong dollars at the box office!
But the starring role is Jackie Chan. Compared to his 1998 “Who Am I”, this is a hit!
You know, the box office of “Who Am I” is close to 40 million Hong Kong dollars!
And Andy Lau, obviously has not yet reached this level, the previous box office results have already explained the problem!
Last year, Andy Lau’s best box office was 17 million Hong Kong dollars!
Especially “The Gambler 1999”, only more than 14 million Hong Kong dollars!
And “Gamblers vs. Las Vegas” is the title of the sequel to this film, and it can’t be more than 20 million no matter how you watch it!
Director Wang Jin’s films are nonsensical, pornographic, funny, absolutely crude, and there will be no surprises!
“You can think about it slowly,” Lei Luo folded his arms around his chest and looked at Mai Shaotang with a smile.
They are all foxes for thousands of years, so there is no need to have fun with him!
It is impossible to make him impulsive! Let him think slowly!
“I will add another eight million Hong Kong dollars.” Sima Jun suddenly spoke, and Mai Shaotang only noticed the giant panda.
“If you win, you will get 16 million Hong Kong dollars, if you lose, you only need to pay 8 million Hong Kong dollars,” Sima Jun added.
“What does it matter to you? What are you messing up here?” Lei Luo looked at Sima Jun sadly.
“What I said, I have to participate in your affairs,” Sima Jun said with a guilty conscience.
He worries about whether he has ruined Lei Luo’s plan!
“Then you can’t make him cheap, you can share the eight million with me,” Lei Luo scratched his head, hating iron and steel.
“Yes”, Sima Jun turned his head and looked at Mai Shaotang, just about to speak.
“Deal”, Mai Shaotang made a decisive decision and slapped it on the table.
Mai Shaotang was still hesitating. Although the last episode of “The Gambler” only had a box office of 14 million, but this episode of “The Gambler vs.
But this giant panda gave away another eight million silly, and he thought he could give it a go!
He originally made a fortune by speculating in fairy stocks, and his gambling nature is already very heavy!
Sima Jun looked back at Lei Luo helplessly, spreading his hands, looking helpless.
Lei Luo smashed his fist on the table, this Sima Jun wanted to join in for any excitement!
Seeing Lei Luo angrily and frustrated, it shows that he is not so sure about the box office, but he is just gambling, which makes Mai Shaotang more sure.
Take one fight and two, you can do it!
“Then let’s sign an agreement,” Mai Shaotang was even more proud, glanced at Lei Luo and Sima Jun, and said yin and yang weirdly.
“Is it useful to sign an agreement for this kind of thing? It’s really crazy,” Lei Luo suddenly exploded.
“I listen to him,” Sima Jun whispered.
“Then what do you think?” Mai Shaotang asked with a smile.
“Brother Hua, do you think this will work?” Lei Luo looked at Andy Lau.”The three of us all wrote an IOU of 8 million Hong Kong dollars. The creditor of Sima Jun and I wrote Mai Shaotang.”
“As for Mai Shaotang’s creditor, just write me.”
(Sima Jun rolls his eyes directly next to him, this is ignoring him!)
“These three IOUs are all placed here with Brother Hua, waiting for the box office results to come out”
“If we win, you give me all the IOUs”
“If we lose, hand all the IOUs to Mai Shaotang, what do you think?”
Lei Luo looked at Andy Lau and calmly said his method.
“Do you believe me that way?” Andy Lau couldn’t help being stunned.
“Of course we trust you, I don’t know what is going on with Mr. Mai?” Lei Luo said while looking at Mai Shaotang.
“Of course I believe in Hua Zai”, Mai Shaotang didn’t say much, cut off the cigar, took out the pen and paper, and began to write IOUs.
Lei Luo and Sima Jun also wrote them quickly and handed them to Andy Lau.
Andy Lau looked at the three IOUs in his hand, couldn’t help but shook his head with a wry smile.
“Okay, Mr. Mai, Brother Hua and I have something to discuss, can you avoid it?” Lei Luo looked at Mai Shaotang.
“No problem, I’ll wait for your 16 million Hong Kong dollars.” Mai Shaotang left the meeting room in a good mood.
Although there was a little problem with the plan to acquire Tianmu, as long as you win this bet, you will be the winner in the end!
But it was only one or two months at night, he could afford it!
Isn’t it 16 million for compensation? Not at a loss!
“Brother Hua, I have a few more songs here, please take a look first.” Lei Luo took out a document and handed it to Andy Lau.
These are several classic songs of Andy Lau’s later generations, including “Man Cry, Cry It Isn’t Sin”, “Infernal Affairs” and so on.
Andy Lau took a serious look at the song, and probably hummed along with the score, then put down the file and looked at Lei Luo.
“What do I need to do?” Andy Lau did not ask about money this time, because he knew that Lei Luo was not for money.
“I want you to endorse the full range of my products, and the time is tentatively set for one year,” Lei Luo said with a smile.
“I will use Tianmu Company to invest in ten movies for you. As for these songs, they are just a meeting ceremony,” Lei Luo continued.
Lei Luo knew that in 1999, it was the year of Andy Lau World Concert. There were also 15 concerts in Hung Hom Stadium on Hong Kong Island.
Moreover, this year, he also participated in Michael Jackson’s Korea concert!
Therefore, this year’s endorsement is definitely a profitable business, and the cost-effectiveness of the promotional effect is definitely the highest year!
The products are all software products of Moluo Technology, including QQ, QQ music, online store, security guards, and so on.
There is also Moluo Electric, you can also use Andy Lau’s portrait as a publicity! Even during theatrical performances, you can ask him to go over and sing a song!
Of course, more importantly, the mp3 player!
Huang Fuchun has now acquired several factories and is currently clarifying the internal management process. It is expected that the mp3 player product will be launched in April.
Lei Luo will completely detonate the sales of mp3 on Hong Kong Island during Andy Lau’s fifteen concerts in Hung Hom Stadium in 1999!
“Well, I will let my agent contact you”
“The premise is that my “Gambling Man vs. Las Vegas” will cost 20 million Hong Kong dollars at the box office on Hong Kong Island.” Andy Lau thought about it, and generally agreed.
“I will definitely win,” Lei Luo said confidently.
“Are you so confident in this film?” Andy Lau asked strangely.
“Brother Hua, I have confidence in you”, Lei Luo said with a smile.
He certainly does not have confidence in Andy Lau, the film’s box office is less than 18 million.
Now even if he has some means, he still doesn’t know whether he is alive.
But he still has a hole card, a hole card that guarantees his victory!
