451 [Prescribe the right medicine]
After the board of directors broke up, Ye Jin and Li Chaoren and Zhou Yin came to his office.
"Mr. Ye, thank you for your support just now." After taking a seat, Li Chaoren said with a smile.
"You have to be polite, Mr. Li. I think even without me, these directors would be convinced by you." Ye Jin waved his hand and smiled.
Li Chaoren is the largest shareholder of Cheung Kong. Among the thirteen directors on the board of directors, eight of them support him. Although the remaining four opposing directors danced happily, if they really raised their hands to vote, they would have to obey the majority.
Moreover, Ye Jin felt that Li Chaoren had always been very calm in the board of directors today. Even when the supporters and opposition hyped up, he was not panicked or angry at all, as if he had already made a decision.
When he proposed the idea of "two-pronged approach", he immediately added that "the bank will take a loan once it wins the bid", which resolved all the directors' doubts.
Judging from these manifestations, Li Chaoren should have considered [two-pronged approach]. Even if he didn't say it, he might also say it himself.
Li Chaoren smiled, "Mr. Ye, from today's board of directors, you are really a person with vision and outstanding business acumen. How do you think we should win the bid?"
"Mr. Li, ask me?" Ye Jin was stunned. "If you want to ask me how to make a movie, I can still say one, two, three. You want to ask me how I can win the bid. This is really beyond my ability."
"No, I think there are similarities between filming and developing real estate projects." Li Chaoren smiled, "It is necessary to grasp the market, find the right projects, focus on publicity and active marketing."
Ye Jin was stunned. Unexpectedly, Li Chaoren summarized the rules of the film industry so well.
Yes, the film industry looks complicated, but the key is to grasp the pulse of the market, invest accurately in projects, and focus on marketing and publicity. This is the road. As for how to shoot, perform, and hype, it is just a trick.
"Mr. Ye, you have written so many good scripts, which shows how smart, wise and talented you are." Zhou Yin also said with a smile, "I think you can bring us a lot of inspiration. Please be sure to help. For us and for yourself."
Li Chaoren also looked at Ye Jin with a smile, as if he had high hopes for him.
Ye Jin blinked.
To be honest, he didn't plan to interfere too much in this matter.
Because he just wanted to take a ride, he never thought of going down to push the cart. But now Li Chaoren and his wife praised him high and made him not say a word, which seemed too ruthless.
"Okay, I think the focus of this bid is not on competitors such as Land, Taikoo, and Daimaru, but on Xiangjiang Metro Company." Ye Jin thought for a while, "As long as the subway company is satisfied with our bid, what other companies do, it has nothing to do with us."
"Yeah." Li Chaoren and Zhou Yin nodded with a smile.
Ye Jin was able to realize this and surpassed most of the board of directors.
When those directors heard that they wanted to go to Land, they were so scared that they had no fighting spirit. They didn't understand at all that the key to this matter was not Land. These opponents of Land were the Xiangjiang Metro Company.
If Xiangjiang Metro Company can be satisfied, it doesn’t matter how strong the opponent is. If Xiangjiang Metro Company is not satisfied, even if the opponent is weak, Cheung Kong will not win.
"Mr. Ye, please continue to say..." Li Chaoren said with a smile.
"To satisfy Xiangjiang Metro Company, the first thing to do is to see what it needs. As long as you can find its core needs and then prescribe the right medicine, I think this matter will not be difficult." Ye Jin said immediately.
Hearing him say this, there was a glimmer of light in Li Chaoren's eyes.
"But I'm sorry I don't know about Xiangjiang Metro Company, so I won't just talk about the specific operation." Ye Jin said with a smile again.
"It's okay, Mr. Ye, you have tied us up and we are very busy." Li Chaoren said with a smile.
Ye Jin's words did give him a lot of inspiration.
"Mr. Ye, you are truly a talented man." Zhou Yin also said with a smile, "If this business is completed, you will be the first to be successful!"
"You have to be polite, I'm just talking." Ye Jin waved his hand and smiled, "Okay, if nothing happens, I'll leave first."
"Okay, I'll give you a gift." Li Chaoren stood up and said.
...
After seeing Ye Jin away, Li Chaoren returned to the office.
"Husband, what do you think of Mr. Ye?" Zhou Yin asked.
"I think he is very smart, has a business acumen and has a very accurate vision." Li Chaoren thought for a while, "At least, I was not as good as him at his age."
Ye Jin is only 24 years old this year. When he was his age, he was still busy at his father-in-law's factory. Ye Jin is already a billionaire and a world-class star, and the difference is indeed far from it.
"Do you think his cross-river will be willing to lurk?" Zhou Yin asked again.
"I can't see through it now. But for now, he still has more benefits than disadvantages to us." Li Chaoren smiled slightly, "Since that's the case, we don't have to rush to deal with him."
"Yeah." Zhou Yin nodded.
...
After the board meeting, Ye Jin returned home.
"Brother Jin, Stallone called and wanted to tell you that the script of "Rocky 2" has been written." Lin Qingxia went forward and said with a smile, "He wants to ask when will you go back to Hollywood?"
"Oh." Ye Jin nodded, and then called Stallone, "Hill, I still have a business to negotiate in Xiangjiang now, and I can't go back to Hollywood yet. This way, if you are in a hurry, come to Xiangjiang to find me. I can also be a good master and take you around."
Stallone is more anxious than him in the drama "Rocky 2".
Because he also has "Rocky", "Raptors of the Lost Ark", "Ghost Street", "Dragon Hard Boy", etc., and Stallone now has nothing but "Rocky".
Since this is the case, he must be even more stable. In this way, he can gain an advantage in the cooperation process and dominate the film pay, box office share, script price, etc.
That's why he won't go back to Hollywood and beg Stallone to film "Rocky 2". He wants Stallone to come to him by himself.
Of course, Stallone would not be a fool if he could write a successful script like "Rocky".
Moreover, even if he is a fool, he has an agency, a lawyer, an investment consultant, etc. behind him, and these are even more fools.
So, they also knew Ye Jin’s plan.
But this time, Stallone asked Ye Jin to shoot this time, so during the negotiations, he would inevitably be in a weak position, and it would be impossible not to make certain concessions.
