Chapter 306 Betting with the Young Master!
"Let's have a meal together first." Chen Jincheng shook hands with the other party and greeted him with a smile.
"Ok!"
The internet celebrity also nodded.
This was the second time he met Chen Jincheng. The last time he was angry in front of him, but this time he was in a weak position. After all, the other party bought the live broadcast contract of Black Cat TV for 5000 million, which really helped him to a certain extent.
At least after the liquidation, he will be able to deal with the bank and avoid a bad situation.
Now the old man is also having problems and I can’t help him solve the problem in a short time.
The key point is that he was too high-profile in the past, and a second-generation bank official was unhappy with him and wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to deal with him. He might even impose a spending restriction on him.
Then all the top young masters' personalities he had created before would become a bit of a joke.
Especially when it comes to chartering a special plane just for the dog, the more high-profile it is in the past, the more ugly it will be when the time comes.
So, if you insist, he owes the other party a favor this time.
As he was thinking about it, he subconsciously glanced in Sun Yizhu's direction, and saw that the girl subconsciously looked elsewhere, obviously pretending to ignore him.
Forget it, I wish Chen Jincheng a happy fuck!
With the 30 billion financing from Mr. Lei, Chen Jincheng's status is already higher than his just based on the resources at hand, so there is no need to offend him.
At the invitation of Chen Jincheng, the internet celebrity and Lin Gou also went to the main table.
Boss Lei has already brought the top executives of Rice to sit at the main table. In addition, Xue Qian and Hong Tao were also invited.
From Ershi Xingchen's side, only Sister Hong and Chen Jincheng could sit at this table.
Now add this internet celebrity and Lin Gou.
"Stay for two days, play together, and call Zhu Zhen." Lin Gou sat directly next to Xue Qian. He had no topics to talk about with others.
"Yes, sure." Xue Qian did not refuse. Anyway, he came here to join in the fun these days and had time.
After the internet celebrity sat down, he greeted Lei Xiaojun respectfully: "Boss Lei!"
It's not okay to be disrespectful.
Normally, the other person would sit at the same table with his old man, but he would sit at the table with the children.
If it weren't for this special gathering, he would not have had the opportunity to sit at the same table with Mr. Lei.
"Well, sit down!" Lei Xiaojun responded with a smile.
Apart from these people, the only internet celebrity who can sit at this table is Li Xiaoling, who is Chen Jincheng's female companion tonight.
She was already feeling an overwhelming amount of emotion, and at this moment, she felt so happy that she almost fainted.
All anchors and internet celebrities are not qualified to sit at this big boss table, but now she, a new internet celebrity, has taken the seat.
The envy that swarmed around her made her addicted and unable to extricate herself, making it difficult for her to breathe.
Other anchors and internet celebrities do envy her.
Really, she is just a lucky girl who was spotted by Chen Jincheng at the event today. Now, not only has she become famous in half an day, but she can also enjoy such a beautiful scenery.
When Sun Yizhu saw this scene, she was speechless.
She has arranged everything well.
If it was Little Sophie who served as Chen Jincheng's female companion at night and she could get close to her, then she and Little Sophie could also sit at the boss's table.
Who knew that someone would intercept it.
Or was this a sister she had never thought of before, and she thought that everything would be easily handled after Sister Fei Ye left.
We really couldn't open the champagne at halftime. If I had known that little Sophie would come, I would have given her to Chen Jincheng.
Little Sophie looked at Li Xiaoling with envy on her face.
All her videos were sent to Chen Jincheng, and he already knew what she meant. She also wanted to sit at the boss' table.
If I can’t sit on it this time, I must sit on it next time.
After the banquet started, the hotel began to serve food and drinks.
The wine was brought in by Boss Lei, especially at the main table, he brought out a few bottles of collection wine.
After everyone at the table drank two glasses of wine, the Internet celebrity also toasted everyone at the table with a glass of wine, and then toasted Chen Jincheng: "Thank you this time!"
Chen Jincheng drank a cup with the other party and said with a smile: "No need to thank me, just treat it as making friends. By the way, we will be doing some film and television projects in the future. If you still want to invest, you can follow us."
He knew that this person would not fall, because his mother was rich and would help him make a comeback.
The key point is that with this failure of 5 million, he became mature in investment and became very successful. By 2024, he had invested in more than 90 companies, with an asset valuation of more than 100 billion.
The reason for revealing this news is also for the future development of Dawan Cinema. As long as this internet celebrity is willing to believe in him and has tasted the sweetness of following him in the film and television industry, then many things will be easy.
In the future, when Dawan Cinema is ready to be sold, with the support of Mr. Lei, it may not be impossible to acquire it, allowing Second Life Star to form a perfect pan-entertainment industry chain.
From internet celebrities to stars, from short videos to short dramas to film and television, the sections are complete.
If the python swallows the dragon successfully, and these are integrated together, they will be able to truly compete with the sound of the sword.
Even if he can't beat him, at least Yan Yin can't defeat him.
However, that is a story for the future. For now, he has to stay hidden and not let either Yanyin or Kuaishou discover his sinister intentions.
Moreover, you cannot take a wrong step, otherwise all your efforts will be wasted.
The internet celebrity was stunned when he heard what Chen Jincheng said.
Suddenly I feel like this person’s jump is a bit too big?
You are an internet celebrity, an MCN company, even if you are the top star in the music industry, you are still several doors away from film and television investment. Why are you trying to get involved in film and television again?
When Lei Xiaojun heard Chen Jincheng's words, he understood his intention and showed an admiring look at him. It was obvious that the other party had taken his words to heart.
He also smiled and said, "Mr. Chen, the LeTV board representative will be here tomorrow, and the LeTV film and television division will be confirmed immediately and will be acquired by our Second Star for 25 billion."
Except for the top management of Dami Group, everyone else was stunned for a moment, especially the internet celebrity.
After hearing the numbers from Mr. Lei, he realized that the reason why the other party raised 30 billion yuan from Second Life Star was probably for the LeTV film and television sector.
In other words, just as the outside world had guessed, Mr. Lei's 30 billion yuan in financing was not just because of the Second Life Star, but also for other reasons.
The LeTV film and television sector may be one of the reasons.
But this alone does not seem to be worth the valuation, which makes him curious about what else is hidden in this financing.
It’s just that the other party didn’t reveal the answer, so there’s no way to guess it. In order for Mr. Lei to agree to a financing with a valuation of 150 billion, the hidden thing must be something very complicated.
When Lin Gou heard the news, he looked at Chen Jincheng in surprise.
It is no wonder that he is like this, because if Ershixingchen acquires LeTV's film and television division, it will no longer be a simple MCN company, but a capital company in the film and television industry.
With the presence of Boss Lei, those film and television investors will give him face, or at least won't make things difficult. As long as the person in control of this sector has a unique vision, it will not be difficult to develop.
If this news gets out, it will definitely cause a sensation.
No one would have thought that Chen Jincheng and Boss Lei would make such a big move.
This opportunity may require contact through Xue Qian.
Chen Jincheng knew that Boss Lei was supporting him, so he smiled and said, "Boss Lei, I'll wait for your call tomorrow."
Lei Xiaojun smiled and nodded, and then said, "After the acquisition is completed, there is still more than 4 million yuan of financing left. Mr. Chen can try some projects." Chen Jincheng smiled and said, "I have this plan."
There are still 6 years before the time he travels through. Although he only remembers the titles of the popular movies and TV shows in these 6 years, it is enough.
Although many movies from the Two Worlds may not exist in this world, as long as they exist, you can try to invest in them. In most cases, those film and television companies will look for capital from multiple parties to assemble the dramas and share the risks, instead of investing all the money.
For example, Penguin Pictures just finished filming "Joy of Life" some time ago. Doesn't Penguin Pictures have enough money to invest in it?
Of course there is.
But they still found several investors to put together the drama. There were 4 investors in the other world, and 6 investors in this world.
If you want to take advantage of Boss Lei's reputation, then there is no problem in participating and getting a share of the soup or meat. There are countless benefits in 6 years.
The internet celebrity heard the conversation between the two parties and was actually attracted by curiosity: "Mr. Chen, there will be several dramas released in the next two days. I wonder which one you like?"
"Then I need to do some research first. Do you mind if I take a look at what movies are available now?" Chen Jincheng said with a smile.
These words made the internet celebrities and other young masters look stunned.
I guess you don't even know what the movie is?
But how can you tell the quality of a movie by simply watching it at the dinner table?
The internet celebrity felt that he had asked a stupid question, which should not have been asked at the dinner table.
Chen Jincheng had already taken out his mobile phone to check some movies that would be released in the next two days.
November is not a very hot period in the film market, so there are no big productions or dramas directed by well-known directors.
In two days, a total of 7 movies will be released, 3 of which were in my previous life, and 4 of which were not in my previous life.
"Nobody", "Venom", "Wreck-It Ralph", "Stupid Agents", "Chinese Blue Helmets", "…", "…".
Among them, "Nobody", "Venom" and "Chinese Blue Helmets" all existed in the previous life.
After watching the movie, Chen Jincheng asked the internet celebrity, "Which of these movies did Mr. Wang like more?"
When the internet celebrity heard this, he said, "I don't know much about this, but Dawan Cinemas attaches great importance to "China Blue Helmets" and thinks that this movie will become a hit this year and continue the myth of "Operation Red Sea."
Hearing what the internet celebrity said, Chen Jincheng suddenly thought of a joke from his previous life: when investing in movies, just keep an eye on Dawan Films. As long as you exclude the films directed by the name of Chen, you can just invest in the opposite of the others.
Dawan Film Investment has been engaged in mysterious hype. It invests in whatever themes are and perfectly avoids what are the hottest themes.
Even movies that had already been invested in and could have taken a big bite of the pie suddenly withdrew their investment, including two that had box office revenues exceeding 40 billion yuan.
Fortunately, the movies directed by the young director Chen were all very popular and provided a boost to the cinema, otherwise the Dawan Cinemas would have had to sell out even earlier.
As for the movie "China Blue Helmets", Dhawan himself invested in it, so he is naturally optimistic about it. He even promoted it to the sky and used it as a benchmark against "Operation Red Sea".
Same subject matter, same publicity, but not the same director.
It can be said that this most anticipated movie is also one of the most unsuccessful movies in 18. If the publicity did not copy "Operation Red Sea", it might have some box office success. But if it copied "Operation Red Sea", people would make comparisons, which would be even more difficult to accept.
He remembered that the movie was ridiculed after it was released, with box office revenue of less than 2000 million in three days, including 1300 million on the first day.
Seeing Chen Jincheng's disagreement, the Internet celebrity asked curiously, "Mr. Chen, you don't think highly of "China Blue Helmets"? This movie is very popular in the film and television circles right now, and there is also a similar film "Operation Red Sea" before it."
Chen Jincheng smiled and said, "It is precisely because of this that I think this "China Blue Helmet" will fail."
"How could that be?" The internet celebrity was stunned.
He felt that Chen Jincheng was too arrogant. Could it be that the other party was more powerful than the entire Dawan Film and Television?
Chen Jincheng explained with a smile: "The subject matter is the same, but the director of Operation Red Sea is telling a very noble story that resonates with people. But after watching the trailer of China Blue Helmets, it is obvious that the director is telling a story he wants to tell, which is his own personal story."
"Most importantly, the director's head is still a mess, and he can't figure out the main points. Although 'Operation Red Sea' touches on love, it only touches on it briefly, serving the main plot and acting as a spice."
"The director of 'China Blue Helmets' exaggerated the love story and made it the main plot. Is that a complete mess? The trailer even used the love story to promote the film. I don't believe it won't flop."
"In fact, the principles of making movies and short videos are the same. You need to know what the audience likes to see and hear. The subject matter must be consistent with the core, and the core cannot be messed up."
"I'm not bragging. Although I'm not an expert in the film and television industry, I still have a good eye for it. If I really want to invest in film and television, as long as I can control these points, I believe I can also be successful in the film and television industry. There is a saying that different paths lead to the same destination."
His words stunned everyone at the table.
Especially Lei Xiaojun, really, he has studied film and television, and has thought about investing before, but he really knows nothing about it. Now although Mr. Chen's words are a bit arrogant, I don't know why they are very convincing.
Young Master Wang still refused to accept the result.
After all, Dhawan belongs to his family.
Instead, he felt that Chen Jincheng was really arrogant and actually wanted to apply his experience in making short videos to the film and television industry.
He couldn't help but ask, "Which movie did Mr. Chen like?"
Chen Jincheng said decisively: "Nobody!"
Needless to say, the joke of 'I'll get you an AK, and I'll get you a Levitra, so that we can grow bigger and stronger and create greater glory' was also very popular before he traveled through time.
He had just seen this clip in the trailer for this movie.
This drama is one of the biggest dark horses in another world. The box office was only over 600 million on the first day, but it reached 7000 million in three days. The box office in the first week reached nearly 3 million, and the total box office was close to 10 billion.
It’s a complete comeback in word of mouth, and the audience is recommending it.
The internet celebrity was immediately dissatisfied: "Mr. Chen, you may not know that this movie has an investment of less than 3000 million, which is a very small investment. There are no young actors, no young beauties, and no shocking world view. The evaluation of Dawan Cinema is that this movie does not conform to the mainstream market."
Chen Jincheng smiled: "The audience is the mainstream in the film market. Fresh meat and beautiful girls are nothing but clouds. Only the movies that the audience likes to watch are good movies."
Seeing the internet celebrity's unconvinced look, Chen Jincheng smiled at him and said, "How about we make a bet? Let's use these two movies."
The Internet celebrity immediately asked, "How do we bet?"
He was really interested. He really didn't believe that Chen Jincheng, an internet celebrity, could give advice on film and television. That would make him look like a waste. He has always been pretentious.
Chen Jincheng smiled and said, "You know my Lamborghini, right?"
The internet celebrity nodded. He naturally knew that the Lamborghini on the other side was known to be the Lamborghini with the worst passenger seat and the strongest smell.
Why is it so bad? Too many beauties are sitting there, what's wrong with Chen Jincheng, isn't it the passenger seat?
As for the strong smell, is there anything else to say?
Chen Jincheng added, "I remember you also have a Porsche 918 SPYder, right? There are only 918 of these cars in the world, and you can't buy one even if you want to. I like this car very much. If "The Blue Helmets of China" is a hit at the box office, my Lamborghini will be yours. If "The Unknown" is a hit, your Porsche 918 will be mine. How about that?"
Hearing this, the internet celebrity was stunned for a moment, but after a moment he agreed: "Let's bet."
He has a lot of cars, and now that he is in trouble, he also wants to sell a few of them. Now that Chen Jincheng's 5000 million seems to be delivered to his door, there is actually no problem in giving him the 918.
Therefore, there is nothing wrong with this bet. When you win, you can give the other party face and not take his car. It can be regarded as a small reward to the other party.
The two men reached an agreement, but Lei Xiaojun and the top management of Dami didn't take it too seriously, after all, they had seen a lot.
But Hong Tao, Hong Jie, Li Xiaoling, and even the two stars Lin Gou and Xue Qian, all looked shocked.
The total value of these two cars as bets is 3000 million.
If the news of the bet between the two were to get out, it would cause a sensation on the entire Internet and would definitely be huge news.
Hong Tao had almost no hesitation. He immediately took out his mobile phone and sent a message to the company to report the matter. They could create a hot spot first and attract a lot of traffic.
This is called seizing the opportunity.
At the same time, he also sent Chen Jincheng's comments on "The Chinese Blue Helmets" and "The Unknowns", as well as Chen Jincheng's words, to the company.
After posting it, he believed that this would be the hottest news tomorrow.
I'm sure tomorrow will be very lively.
