Chapter 169: Cool Down the Fire First
Seeing Cai Yinong was also in the private room, Xu Kun frowned at first, and then relaxed.
Although this woman did something unkind, I have already taught her a lesson. Now she should be the one who is unhappy, not me.
Thinking of this, Xu Kun walked over and sat opposite Cai Yinong. He took out a cigarette and lit it, and asked leisurely, "Boss Cai coaxed me to come here. Could it be that he missed me because he got tired of it?"
Cai Yinong was filled with shame and anger when he heard this, but soon he turned expressionless and said coldly: "I came to you because I want to ask you about LeTV Video Network."
"Ok?"
Xu Kun was slightly stunned, but then he understood. Jia Yueting failed to get Huayi involved, so he had to settle for Tangren as the next best thing. It can only be said that Lao Jia is indeed a qualified businessman, with no hatred in his eyes, only interests.
He asked back with great interest: "What conditions did Mr. Jia offer you?"
"Five million investment + internet copyright discount in exchange for of LeEco's shares."
When talking about these figures, Cai Yinong frowned unconsciously. She was extremely dissatisfied with this. After all, LeTV's original estimated total investment was only 20 million.
Even considering Jia Yueting's background, this 20 million + online copyright discount should at least account for about % of the shares.
But two days ago, she went to Beijing for negotiations and was persuaded by Jia Yueting without knowing it. Looking back, Cai Yinong couldn't figure out how she agreed to this investment and shareholding ratio.
I can only say that Jia Yueting is too good at fooling people. You may not feel it when he is on the phone, but once you meet him, he seems to have the magical power to charm people.
This is also the reason why Cai Yinong, although reluctant, still ran to Hengdian to find Xu Kun - although Xu Kun is despicable and extremely hateful, he is always easier to deal with than Jia Yueting.
"Haha~"
After hearing the investment and shareholding ratio, Xu Kun felt even better, as it proved that Jia Yueting really treated him as his own.
After lighting a cigarette, Xu Kun lazily leaned back in his chair and asked again with a sneer: "Then what makes you sure that I would tell you? Do you think we have a good relationship and are very close?"
Hearing the word "close", Cai Yinong couldn't help but want to vomit. She gritted her teeth and suppressed it, saying word by word: "But you are also a shareholder of LeTV!"
After a pause, he added: "If we Tangren join in, it will be of great help to LeTV's initial development!"
"I am just a small shareholder who can be ignored."
Xu Kun shrugged. "In order to ensure that the company's internal information is not leaked, it is normal for me to choose to remain silent. If you have any questions, just go and talk to Mr. Jia. After all, he is the boss of LeTV."
Cai Yinong was not angry this time. He was silent for a while, and suddenly said to Hu Ge and the assistant beside him: "I have something important to discuss with Mr. Xu. You go out and guard the door. Don't let anyone come in and disturb me."
Hu Ge was a little hesitant, but seeing the young assistant stand up without hesitation, he could only follow him out obediently.
After the two left, Cai Yinong took another deep breath and tried to calm the anger in his heart.
If possible, she didn't want to see Xu Kun's face again, but investing in LeTV was an extremely important decision for Tangren.
Tangren is not actually very wealthy. In the past, most of the TV dramas they made were made by Hong Kong-funded Lu Zi, with Tangren making a profit from the difference.
It was only when it came to The Legend of Sword and Fairy that Tangren gritted its teeth and took a big gamble in order to train its own people - but even so, Tangren's investment only accounted for a little more than one-third of the total investment.
Although I have won the bet now, the funds have not been fully recovered yet.
If Tangren wants to come up with the five million now, he must rely on a mortgage loan, not to mention that he also has to gamble on his future online copyright.
Therefore, there is a lot of opposition within Tangren - although no one cares about online copyright now, many people are reluctant to give up money. Once someone else wants something they don't want, it becomes a rare treasure in their eyes.
But Cai Yinong was bewitched by the prospects described by Jia Yueting, and was really unwilling to give up this chance to take a chance, so she urgently wanted to get some evidence from Xu Kun to decide whether to bet on LeTV.
After all, she really couldn't see through Jia Yueting.
Besides being a shareholder of LeTV Video Network, Xu Kun is also the founder of LeTV WeMedia. Moreover, Jia Yueting has praised Xu Kun for his long-term vision more than once...
Never mind, it’s not the first time anyway!
Cai Yinong gritted her teeth, suddenly stuck out her tongue and licked her lips, then asked seductively: "How about we cool down first?" "Ahem~ Ahem~"
Xu Kun was choked by the smoke and put out the remaining half in the ashtray. He stared at Cai Yinong jokingly and said, "Boss Cai, you are not really addicted to it, are you?"
"you!"
Cai Yinong was filled with shame and anger again, but she quickly suppressed it. Facing Xu Kun's teasing gaze, she gritted her teeth and said, "I think my sincerity should be enough, right?!"
"Haha~"
Xu Kun stood up and said condescendingly: "The first time was considered a 'price', but the second time he took the initiative to come to me, I don't know what it should be considered - after all, there are many women who covet me, how do I know that you, Mr. Cai, are not trying to use your power for personal gain?"
"You, you are shameless!"
Cai Yinong finally broke down, jumping up and down, gritting his teeth and cursing: "You are a hooligan, a scum, a cheap bastard..."
Call ~
A fist as big as a casserole suddenly stopped at the tip of Cai Yinong's nose, blocking her angry curse.
Xu Kun slowly retracted his fist and walked away without saying a word.
After he left, the worried assistant and Hu Ge heard the angry scolding, and then they hurried in and surrounded Cai Yinong to ask if she was okay.
Cai Yinong was silent for a moment, but suddenly a smile broke out on her face.
"Mr. Cai, what are you doing..."
Hu Ge thought she was sick and was about to say something to show his concern, but was stopped by the assistant.
As the master and servant who live together day and night, the young assistant could naturally tell that Cai Yinong was laughing sincerely, and not just laughing out of anger.
As for why she laughed...
That's of course because the desired answer has been obtained, and the expected price has not been paid.
It is known that Xu Kun was dissatisfied with Tangren and Cai Yinong. If LeTV Video Network was a big pit, or even if the risk was relatively high, Xu Kun should have chosen to bring in Tangren.
But Xu Kun was dismissive of her "sincerity", which actually proved that LeTV Video Network is really a very good project worth investing in.
After laughing for a while, Cai Yinong called Hu Ge and said, "Sit down. If he doesn't want to eat, we will. You can order whatever you want."
After a pause, he said to Hu Ge, "Before the end of the year, the whole company will probably have to go through a few hard times. As the boss of the company, you have to set an example."
Hey~
Hu Ge responded sullenly. It was nothing to live a hard life for a few months. After all, he had never tasted any sweetness before starring in The Legend of Sword and Fairy.
Mainly because of what happened today, he felt a little sorry for Xu Kun - Brother Kun treated him well when he was in the capital, but he...
shuh~
At this moment, the door of the private room was suddenly pushed open again, and then Xu Kun strode in. After looking at the expressions of the three people present one by one, he sat down opposite Cai Yinong.
He said unhappily, "I suddenly realized that I'm very angry now. I'd better follow Mr. Cai's instructions and calm down first."
After all, Xu Kun was not a stupid man. When he walked out of the hotel and prepared to get in the car, he had already come to his senses. When he saw the expressions of the three people, he understood everything.
As expected, facing the intrigues in the business world, I still lack some composure.
Hearing Xu Kun talking about "extinguishing the fire" in a dignified manner, the smile on Cai Yinong's face froze, and he immediately stood up angrily and left with Hu Ge and the assistant.
Before leaving, Hu Ge couldn't help but look back at Xu Kun, his eyes filled with admiration.
Cai Yinong is a man of high status within the Tang people, and he also has status outside. Unexpectedly, he would take the initiative to "cool down" others.
