Chapter 74 A Simple Business Battle
Chapter 74 A Simple Business Battle
They're in the online video platform business. If you do a simple calculation based on the data on iQiyi's GG recruitment and membership purchase growth, their revenue is no less than 4 million yuan.
So, as soon as he heard that Mozi Films was holding a movie premiere, he came over specifically to see it, just to disgust Kiwi.
To be honest, when Gong Yu saw his old rival Teng Xun and his companion, his mood plummeted. He couldn't help but curse inwardly, "They're such a big deal!"
When Dai Ying saw Han Ziming coming over, she immediately felt relieved. Just now, seeing her boss's expression, she was afraid that he and Teng Xun would start arguing.
Let's not talk about her anymore. Han Ziming is also afraid of problems arising, after all, the two families don't get along very well.
He jogged over and greeted the five executives from the two major video companies and Daylight Entertainment, among others, warmly:
"Hey everyone, what brings you all here today?"
Then he said to Sun Zhonghuai, "Mr. Sun, it's my first time meeting you. Welcome to the event!"
Seeing that Han Ziming was so cooperative, Sun Zhonghuai praised him, "Boss Han, I didn't expect you to be so handsome and talented. If I had seen the film 'The Beginning' back then, I would have kept it no matter what."
Gong Yu overheard the two chatting. Fortunately, Han Ziming directly called out that it was the first time he and Sun Zhonghuai had met.
He retorted, "Hey, hindsight is 20/20. You can't expect Tencent to be this lucky all the time."
Seeing that Gong Yu was in a bad mood, Sun Zhonghuai wasn't angry since he had achieved his goal for the day. He smiled and said, "It's alright. Teng Xun's family is big and powerful. Boss Han, remember to include us in any future projects. It's very dangerous to only cooperate with one video platform."
Ah Jie is now filled with regret. You're all from the same clan; you should at least give him a chance to make amends.
Upon hearing this, Han Ziming exclaimed, "Holy crap, I've met a master!"
That makes sense, though; only partnering with kiwifruit wouldn't be good for selling the film. He laughed and said, "No problem, no problem, there's still a chance. We'll talk about it later."
Teng Xun and his companion's eyes lit up immediately: Hahaha, this trip was definitely worthwhile!
Gong Yu was both amused and annoyed. So this is how they establish a relationship?
At this point, Sun Zhonghuai delivered the fatal blow: "Boss Han, we at Tencent are not like those small companies. I heard that we even reduced the budget for your next film collaboration."
Han Ziming was truly impressed by this吐槽 (tu cao, a Chinese internet slang term for sarcastic or critical comments). Was this what real business warfare was all about—waiting for others to make mistakes?
In fact, Han Ziming had also wondered why Kiwi only invested 50 million when "The Beginning" had already made so much money.
Are they convinced that I only sell to iQiyi?
Anyway, Mozi Films isn't losing money; the less they invest, the more Mozi Films earns. They just didn't expect that Tencent's people would know about this.
Gong Yu's alarm went off—a miscalculation.
Damn it, is there a mole in the company? The project was only finalized not long ago.
Tencent's people are shameless!
Large items!
Your company is small!
However, before he could explode, Hou Hongliang, seeing the two companies preparing to tear each other apart, lost all interest in watching the drama unfold. He thought to himself, "Stop talking about the project, or you might accidentally expose me."
Then he rolled his eyes and said, "Gentlemen, how about we sit down and chat?"
Actually, he was thinking that once he sat down, there would be people all around him, and he'd see how they would fight it out.
Upon hearing Hou Hongliang's words, Han Ziming immediately nodded in agreement and said, "Gentlemen, why don't you sit down first?"
After some consideration, everyone decided to put it aside for now, and said in unison, "Okay! Let's sit down and talk!"
After greeting Zhao Siyao and the others, the group of Tang Ren sat down in the fourth row behind Zhao Siyu and the others.
Seeing that Han Ziming and Teng Xun's people were chatting happily, Brother Hu turned to Zhao Siyao in the front row and asked, "President Zhao, does your Mozi Films have any collaborations with Teng Xun? They seem to have a very good relationship!"
A thoughtful look flashed across Zhao Siyao's eyes, and she fell silent. "I don't know either!"
He then slowly began to speak: "I haven't received any news from the company yet. We can take a look after the celebration banquet for 'The Beginning'."
The arrival of the heads of major video platforms has little impact on viewers.
However, the media cares a lot. Although we couldn't hear what they were saying, judging from their expressions, it probably wasn't a good thing. We could only take pictures first and then make up stories later.
Han Ziming quickly invited the group to the left side of the first row and had them sit down.
Another gasp rippled through the crowd, drawing everyone's attention.
At this moment, the audience shouted:
"Yingbao, I love you!"
"Little Bone, you're so beautiful!"
Oh wow, it's Zhao Yingbao here. She wasn't wearing a formal dress, but her casual clothes were still quite eye-catching.
The media is busy again, and someone exclaimed in surprise:
"What's going on today? Why is Zhao Yingbao here too?!"
"Maybe it's because of his cameo role in 'The Beginning'?"
"Who cares? At least I made money today, and this is a sales record!"
Zhao Yingbao first made a heart shape with her hands to the shouting audience. Then, seeing the owner of the online video platform next to Han Ziming, she went over and gave him a brief greeting.
After all, these people were her bosses.
When Qi Yiguo and Teng Xun saw that Zhao Yingbao had arrived, they didn't bother Han Ziming anymore.
They could all see the delighted smile on Han Ziming's face, so how could they possibly disturb him?
Han Ziming said with delight, "Sister Yingbao, it's been so long! You're still so beautiful!"
Zhao Yingbao still has a good impression of Han Ziming, and besides, he is now an investor in "The Story of Minglan", so she came to see him today.
"Hey bro, you look really handsome today! Sorry for showing up without telling me, I just wanted to see how your movie was!"
After saying that, she extended her hand, intending to be polite.
Han Ziming seized the opportunity, winked, and gently pulled Zhao Yingbao close with one hand, his shoulder brushing against her body. He whispered teasingly in her ear, "Sis, I'm not just good at movies!"
Zhao Yingbao was speechless.
Is this person really not afraid of trouble?
So many media outlets are here? How dare they flirt with me?
Because of the way the two of them are, to others, it would look like they're hugging.
At this moment, a large group of media outlets had already captured the scene of the two embracing, and they were all excited!
The audience felt it was worth it; is this something you can see for a few dozen yuan in movie tickets?
Soon, Han Ziming released his grip, and Zhao Yingbao quickly slipped away, flashing a friendly smile, and walked to the third row.
She saw the group of people from Tangren, was taken aback at first, and then, after seeing Zhang Ruonan, she walked over and sat down next to her.
Zhang Ruonan was surprised at first, then smiled and said, "Sister Yingbao, it's been a long time."
Jiang Peiyao and Xiao Hong also greeted Zhao Yingbao with smiles: "Hello, Sister Yingbao!"
Zhao Yingbao then greeted everyone, including Tang Ren and others.
Then Zhao Yingbao looked at Zhang Ruonan, a sly glint in her eyes: "Ruonan, is Xiao Mo good to you?"
Zhang Ruonan was speechless, muttering to herself, "Xiao Mo? Why is she calling me so intimately? Is she here to steal my man?"
However, she still responded politely, "It's great, my boss takes good care of me, thank you for your concern, Sister Yingbao."
Zhao Yingbao raised her voice slightly, a hint of mockery in it, and said, "Is it good? Look whose hand he's holding now!"
Zhang Ruonan followed her gaze and her expression immediately changed.
So it was Ida who came!
This is a new friend she just met!
Today, Jing Tian was dressed in a black cropped sweater, her figure graceful and her snow-white legs exposed. She wore a pair of sparkling earrings and shook hands with Han Ziming with a smile.
Jing Tian's recent live stream without makeup has attracted a lot of attention from the media and viewers.
Moreover, Ida's background is astonishing; she is rarely seen in close contact with men.
Therefore, the media were all excitedly taking pictures like crazy.
Zhang Ruonan cursed inwardly, "That scumbag!!!"
