At about nine o'clock the next morning, Lu Sijia called him as expected, and told him about the project of Long Yu Film and Television in a business-like manner.
On the surface, she wanted to seek advice from her boss, Chen Feng, but in fact she wanted to participate in this project.
It's been quite a while since the last time the two had intimate behavior at the East Lake Villa, and this is the first time the two have contacted each other.
Chen Feng listened to her talk about the Datong project, mainly that the success rate and return rate would be relatively high. After being silent for a while, he said: "This project sounds very good, but since it is so good, Longyu Film and Television
Why did they take the initiative to seek cooperation with us? We had no relationship or friendship with them before."
Lu Sijia said: "Our reputation at Fengmang Film and Television is now well-known, and some people in the industry have said that we have a great background, even if we face the industry leader Qitian Media, we will not give in. In addition, since the establishment of our company, we have not
A film and television project is losing money. So, they thought of looking for us to cooperate. Anyway, the investment in this project is so large, and their company will definitely not be able to afford it. They will definitely find several companies to share the risk and achieve a win-win situation. Naturally, they approached us.
We, at the same time, also want to seek good luck."
Lu Sijia's explanation was correct, but Chen Feng always felt that something was wrong. He still believed in his intuition and said directly: "Anyway, I am not optimistic about this project, and I don't trust Longyu Film and Television even more. In addition, the launch of this project
They are the people, and it is difficult for us to control them. Even if we succeed, we will only make wedding clothes for them. If we fail, then we will lose everything. Generally speaking, some gains outweigh the losses. If we have this money to invest in other people's projects,
It’s better to invest in projects that you can control.”
Lu Sijia sighed silently. She thought that Chen Feng would refuse the project, but she never thought that Chen Feng would be so straightforward.
After all, she is still a worker and does not have the final decision-making power in the company.
"I think you should carefully read their project proposal before making a decision. I will send the project proposal to you later. The original work of this project is very popular online and has its own traffic. After it is filmed, the playback and viewership ratings
They are all guaranteed. No matter how much you earn, at least you shouldn’t lose anything.”
"I understand, please send me the project document. I will give you a definite answer after reading it."
"good."
After saying that, Lu Sijia hung up the phone directly without saying goodbye.
Chen Feng didn't care about this, because he often did this himself. When he had something to say, he would of course die after the matter was said.
Not long after, Lu Sijia sent him a project plan via WeChat. After receiving it, Chen Feng opened it on his phone and read it.
This planning document has more than fifty pages in total and is quite detailed and meticulous.
Chen Feng took a rough look at it. If he only looked at the plan, it looked like it was promising.
As Lu Sijia said just now, this TV series is being adapted from a very popular online novel, and the original author participated in the script creation.
The production team is also top-notch in the industry, and the scheduled director is also a well-known director in the industry, having produced several well-known works before.
Although the cast is yet to be determined, there are a few preliminary candidates, all of whom are top-notch in the country.
The original novel has its own traffic, so it naturally has the support of a large group of fans of the original work. Coupled with the top-notch starring role, it also has the support of a large group of fans.
Even if the shot is terrible, there will still be many fans who will pay for it. As long as the shot is within the acceptable range, let alone that, you will definitely make a profit without losing money.
But his intuition told him that this project was a big pit.
Therefore, Chen Feng only took a quick look at the proposal and then clicked the cross to close it. Of course, he still chose not to participate in this project.
Chen Feng had made a decision in his mind, but he was not in a hurry to tell Lu Sijia.
After all, only a few minutes have passed. Under normal circumstances, in this time, dozens of pages of planning documents would be read.
Wait at least an hour or two before talking.
Chen Feng took his mobile phone and read the novel again, but not long after, someone called him via video call.
When he saw the other party's profile picture, Chen Feng was speechless.
After a while, Chen Feng pressed the connect button. What appeared on the phone screen was the face of an old white man, that was Johnny.
"Hi, Chen, I sent you a message, didn't you receive it? Why didn't you reply?" Johnny asked with a serious look on his face.
At around eight o'clock last night, Johnny got Chen Feng's WeChat ID from Molly. After adding Chen Feng as a friend, he chatted with him about his experience in picking up girls and the driving skills of experienced drivers. He was also quite thick-skinned.
Yes, Chen Feng was considered his daughter's "boyfriend" after all, but in the end, he took the initiative to discuss these topics with Chen Feng.
Chen Feng occasionally replied a word or two at first, but then he kept talking and asked him about health care and driving secrets.
Chen Feng can still talk to him about health care. After all, he now does physical exercise every morning and Qigong practice in the afternoon.
Chen Feng told him this.
But when it comes to driving secrets, Chen Feng is not as thick-skinned as he is, so it's hard to say. He only says that he is extremely talented and only has solid physical strength and no skills, let alone any secrets.
But Johnny obviously didn't believe his truth, so he still pestered him to ask.
Chen Feng was so annoyed that he finally said he was going to take a shower, and then he never responded to his messages, and even blocked his messages directly.
If he hadn't been worried about Molly's face, Chen Feng would have wanted to block this old white man directly.
Unexpectedly, he would directly make a video call today.
Now faced with Johnny's questioning, Chen Feng said frankly: "I have temporarily blocked your messages. Because you are too verbose and keep sending me messages. I have said everything I should say. If you don't believe it, I don't either.
Method."
"Well, I was a little too anxious yesterday. Because I heard from Molly that you have several very close female friends and you can make them get along well with each other. I am very curious to guess how you do this.
A little bit. After thinking about it, I found that in addition to being handsome and rich, you are also very good in terms of physical hardware. That’s why I asked you if you have any secrets. We are all men, so you should understand, right?
"
Chen Feng was speechless for a while. No wonder the old white man was so enthusiastic yesterday and acted shamelessly. It turns out that the roots are here.
Like him, Molly was also quite frank, and actually revealed to her father his great luck with women.
What else could Chen Feng say? He could only say: "Okay. I can understand. However, I really don't have any secrets. If I really have one, it's probably that I usually do physical exercise, and of course there are the unique secrets of our Dragon Kingdom.
Qigong practice should mainly be related to these two activities."
"I thought about it too. I thought about it last night and guessed that it might have something to do with your regular physical exercise and Qigong practice. Especially Qigong practice. I searched it on the Internet last night. This Qigong is really
It's very magical, even more magical than your Dragon Kingdom Kung Fu. So, I want to ask you, can I learn the qigong you are practicing now?"
"The qigong I practice was learned from the Internet. It's called Yinshizi Meditation. If you want to learn it, I can find an English document and send it to you. After you read it and learn it, you can ask if there is anything you don't understand.
I asked. The technique is very simple, but it requires long-term practice to be effective."
"Okay, let me practice and see, please. Come and show me right away. How about you come over to Molly's place for dinner at noon, and I will have a good chat with you in person."
"Sorry, I'm not free at noon."
"What about tonight?"
"I'm not free either."
"Chen, it's rude of you to do this. How can you not have free time all day? I heard from Molly that you live in the community next to you. It's not far away. It only takes a few minutes to walk."
"I really don't have time. If you want to learn qigong, I will teach you. There is no need to talk in person. You have to practice it by yourself."
"...Okay, then please send me the practice document as soon as possible. I will watch and practice it myself first."
"good."
After hanging up the phone, Chen Feng went to the Internet to search for the English version of the Yinshizi meditation method, and then sent it to Johnny.
Although Chen Feng didn't know this old white man well yet, he knew from the two days of contact that he was definitely not a person who could endure loneliness.
Therefore, since this is Zi's meditation method, he may not be able to persist in practicing it for a long time.
After sending Johnny away, Chen Feng finally continued to read online novels with peace of mind until Sun Xiaorui came back from get off work at noon for dinner.
After eating, the two of them chatted for a while while watching TV in the living room, and then Sun Xiaorui went upstairs to take a nap alone.
I went downstairs about half an hour later and went to work again.
Only then did Chen Feng remember to send Lu Sijia a WeChat message, saying that he had read the project document and finally decided not to participate in the other party's project.
Lu Sijia was obviously mentally prepared and simply replied with three words, "I understand."
Fengmang Film and Television Company, General Manager's Office.
After Lu Sijia put down her cell phone, she said to Luo Yutong, who was standing opposite the desk: "Call that woman and tell her that I agree with the distribution plan she proposed."
Luo Yutong looked at her in surprise and asked, "You agreed now, aren't you planning to litigate with her?"
After Lu Sijia's biological father passed away, although he left some inheritance to Lu Sijia, Lu Sijia was not satisfied and asked her current stepmother Ke Chuling to add 200 million in cash on top of the property distributed by her biological father's will.
As a result, Ke Chuling did not agree. After back-and-forth negotiations with Luo Yutong, the middleman, Ke Chuling finally agreed to give her a maximum of 100 million in cash, and not even a dime more for the rest.
Of course, Lu Sijia was not satisfied with just adding 100 million before. She pretended to file an inheritance lawsuit with Ke Chuling. She hired a team of professional lawyers to collect evidence in her favor, and she had no choice but to publicly expose the news to the media.
You must know that the main asset left by her deceased biological father, Luo Yongsheng, is Xinyang Insurance, a listed company. The previous chairman was Luo Yongsheng. Now that he has passed away, his wife Ke Chuling has become the chairman.
If there is news that Luo Yongsheng's daughter is involved in an inheritance lawsuit with Ke Chuling, the stepmother of the chairman, which involves the distribution of shares of Xinyang Insurance, it will naturally seriously affect the stock price and market of Xinyang Insurance.
This is definitely not what I, Ke Chuling, want to see.
That's why Ke Chuling was willing to give in and give Lu Sijia an additional 100 million on top of the property distributed by her husband's will.
However, Lu Sijia had previously offered her 200 million to kill her, which made Ke Chuling very angry and unwilling to accept it. She even showed that she was not willing to file a lawsuit with her.
They were in a stalemate for a while, with no one giving in.
As a result, Lu Sijia now chose to give in, or choose to accept the other party's offer, which naturally surprised the cousin Luo Yutong.
"Although I am still a little unwilling, I know that this old woman Ke Chuling will not agree to give me an extra 200 million yuan. When I go to court with her, you and the lawyers have said that my chances of winning are not great. In the end, I may not even get more than 200 million yuan."
I can’t even get 100 million. So, I’d better just accept it when it’s good and settle down.”
After hearing what she said, Luo Yutong frowned slightly and asked, "Are you unhappy here? Are you planning to resign and go it alone?"
Lu Sijia couldn't help but look at Luo Yutong in astonishment after hearing this. After a while, she asked: "How did you see that?"
Luo Yutong said calmly: "I am your assistant. Can I not know the situation in your company now? I can only say that Wu Mengting has good tricks and has almost ignored you. Now in the entire company, everyone has acquiesced
She is the boss's wife, and she is above you, the general manager. Several department managers obey her orders more than you, the general manager."
Lu Sijia sighed and asked with a wry smile: "Do you think I am a failure? I am older than her, and I am also the general manager of the company. I also receive dividends from the company's equity. I can barely be considered a shareholder of the company, but the result is
She suppressed her in every way. Unfortunately, I didn’t have any effective countermeasures. Thinking about it makes me feel a little aggrieved.”
The expression on Luo Yutong's face was still dull, showing no sympathy or comfort at all. He just said matter-of-factly: "Her abilities in all aspects are indeed much better than yours, especially in TV drama production.
On the other hand, you are no match for her.
You are not as good as her in wining over people in the company. She uses both kindness and power to make everyone in the company respect you. But you are tough in company management, sometimes too strict, which makes many people feel resentful towards you. In addition, you are very tough.
If you don't go deep into the department to contact and communicate with ordinary employees, to put it simply, you are not down to earth. In the minds of ordinary employees, you, the general manager, lacks affinity. And she has the title of boss's wife. It goes without saying that the people in the company are against each other.
"
Hearing Luo Yutong's words, Lu Sijia looked a little unhappy. Although she knew that her cousin's words were the truth, it was even more difficult to accept them because of this.
She didn't want to admit that her ability was weaker than Wu Mengting, so she could only defend herself angrily: "The reason why she has the prestige in the company now is because she has the boss Chen Feng to support her. She is Chen Feng's woman, and Chen Feng treats her
100% trust. And I’m not his woman, how can I compare with her?”
Luo Yutong said mercilessly: "You have to admit your shortcomings. You invested so much money in the production of "The Girl in the Boudoir" and it is now produced, but it cannot be sold at a good price. What can you say?
Doesn’t the main responsibility lie with you? After all, you are the chief producer and person in charge of this TV series and this project.”
After Lu Sijia was stunned for a while, she uttered a few words angrily: "You are really my good cousin."
