Chen Dongcheng didn’t remember the specific number of Dada’s couriers very clearly, but it was certain that the number of registered people would exceed two million.
According to the per capita deposit of 300, the deposit fee will reach 600 million in the later period.
Zhu Tao can help you purchase some short-term financial products, and you will not lose any interest money.
It is impossible for Chen Dongcheng to inject unlimited capital into Cao Cao Suda. Zhou Shaohua is worthy of praise for having this awareness.
In addition to the establishment of Cao Cao Suda, Kama also came to see Chen Dongcheng several times.
Each time, they were presented with a creative script proposal, and Chen Dongcheng asked them to revise it twice before signing the creative agreement for confirmation.
"Mr. Chen, if you sign this, we can start preparing for the shooting."
Seeing Chen Dongcheng sign the advance payment, Kama breathed a sigh of relief.
"I will let Shangdong Technology transfer the money to your account as quickly as possible. Please contact the production team as soon as possible."
With such a small sum of ten million, Chen Dongcheng would not be able to trick Kama.
Karma smiled and nodded: "Don't worry, the production team will arrive tomorrow. We will get together to discuss the shooting details, and then go to Thailand to shoot."
"If it's convenient, I'll go with you."
Karma thought Chen Dongcheng was worried and wanted to supervise on the spot.
"That's definitely no problem. You are Party A and have the right to put forward your own opinions on our filming at any time."
Otherwise, how can you call Party A dad? If you have money, you are the uncle.
Chen Dongcheng patted Karma on the shoulder: "I'm just taking my girlfriend to Thailand to hang out with you."
"Sorry, I misunderstood."
Karma was a little surprised and quickly apologized: "But if you have time, you can also accompany us to Germany for filming later."
"Forget it about Germany, where are you planning to go for the filming location in Thailand?"
“Krabi Island is a very suitable island for filming.”
"Okay, please let me know the time."
Krabi Island is different from those popular islands. The number of people is relatively small, mostly European and American tourists.
Kama took the formal filming agreement signed by Chen Dongcheng and returned to the company to contact the filming team.
Karma really didn’t fool Chen Dongcheng.
When shooting a commercial, the most important role is definitely the director.
Karma found Matthias, who had won the London International Advertising Award.
Chen Dongcheng is still very satisfied with this shooting team.
The long list of international advertising awards on Matthias's resume is indeed genuine.
…
No. 5 World Trade Center.
I don’t know who came up with the idea, but Wei Ziliang and the others came to visit with their female companions.
Yu Jiasi has been here several times, but this is the first time for Wei Ziliang and Fatty Xu.
After taking a casual look, we started chatting on the sofa.
"Brother Chen, it's not convenient for you to take us with you. We just want to form a group and go have fun."
Yu Jiasi, for example, is usually very idle. During school, he spent three days fishing and two days drying nets.
"You want to go too?"
Chen Dongcheng looked at Wei Ziliang and Fatty Xu.
Wei Ziliang shrugged: "I'm free to do it. As long as it's convenient for Mr. Chen, I'll join in the fun."
Fatty Xu patted his belly: "I happened to go to Thailand to lose weight."
"Okay, you wait for my call and when Kama is ready, we can all set off together."
There were a lot of people and it was lively, so Chen Dongcheng agreed after thinking about it for a moment.
"I haven't been to Thailand for a long time, so I just wanted to go see if I could have an affair."
Wei Ziliang doesn't intend to bring the girls in his address book with him.
What if I go to Thailand and meet someone I like more?
Yu Jiasi hesitated: "Are there really many girls in Thailand?"
"Then you have to decide which island to go to. Some islands have too many people and are not interesting. You have to choose the kind of islands that foreigners like to go to."
When Wei Ziliang said this, he looked at Chen Dongcheng and asked: "Mr. Chen, which island are you going to?"
“Krabi Island.”
"Oh, that island is great. I've been there once before. I'm sure you'll be satisfied with the foreign girls from Yishui."
When Wei Ziliang said this, Yu Jiaci swallowed: "Brother Wei, you can't lie to me."
"Ma Dan, when have I ever lied to you?"
Wei Ziliang hummed and said: "Those foreign girls are different from the domestic ones, you have to be good at flirting..."
Fatty Xu put his hands on the armrests of the sofa and looked at Chen Dongcheng with a smile: "Mr. Chen, how was that girl last time?"
"It's okay. The money was returned to me. It's quite interesting."
Chen Dongcheng thought of Dai Yufei and shook his head with a smile.
"Has the money been refunded to you?"
Wei Ziliang stopped talking to Yu Jiasi about how to flirt with girls, and came over and asked curiously: "Didn't you two go to that place last time?"
"I didn't go. I sent her home, and she returned the money to me twice."
Wei Ziliang touched his chin: "This girl is a bit interesting. There are two possibilities, either she is fishing for a big fish with a long-term goal, or she really has an unyielding conscience."
"Young Master Chen is really good at staying calm."
Fatty Xu felt a little regretful: "That girl's face is really pure."
Wei Ziliang suddenly took out his mobile phone and called the manager of King of K-Song: "Hey, it's me. Let me ask you something. Is that person named Dai Yufei still there?"
"Hey, Mr. Wei, you said Feifei, she quit working. She stopped working since that day when Mr. Chen took her away. The boss scolded me."
Wei Ziliang hung up the phone and marveled: "You asked me to say it right, this should be the second one?"
"We are not saints. Wherever we go, we can help each other."
Fatty Xu glanced at his watch: "I'm going to be a host tonight, and everyone will give me a favor?"
"Hey, I'm a rare visitor. Isn't it Fatty that your adopted one is pregnant by you?"
Fatty Xu ignored Wei Ziliang: "I made a small profit from a project some time ago, and we just happened to go out and have fun."
"It's rare for a fat man to treat you. This place can't be too bad, right?"
Fatty Xu glanced at Wei Ziliang: "Xijiao No. 5, are you satisfied?"
"Damn it, fat man, you're going to bleed profusely!"
Wei Ziliang looked at Fatty Xu several times and muttered: "If you don't make millions, you won't be willing to spend so much money to entertain guests."
"A small profit."
When Fatty Xu said this, everyone was rude and shouted at those who deserved it.
…
Xijiao No. 5 is far away from the city and relatively quiet. It is on the side of Gate 4 of Xijiao State Guesthouse.
Unlike most restaurants in Magic City, the decoration of Xijiao No. 5 is in a European pastoral style.
Walking into the restaurant, you can see some carefully collected antique furnishings everywhere.
The private room that Fatty Xu booked was on the third floor, and the wooden floor creaked under Fatty Xu's steps.
Walking into the box, the waitress stood sideways in the box with a smile.
The eyes of the girls who followed me to dinner were all bright. If the restaurant hadn't allowed taking pictures, they would have started taking selfies.
Fatty Xu called the waiter and started ordering: "Is there any wild large yellow croaker?"
"There is a four-pound one, what do you think?"
"Okay, half of it is steamed using the traditional method, and the other half is made into a super enlarged version of your classic dish "Frozen Yellow Croaker"."
"OK."
Wei Ziliang raised his eyebrows and explained to Chen Dongcheng next to him: "Mr. Chen, this wild yellow croaker is not cheap. Their price is 15,800 per pound. It will definitely amaze you in a while."
A fish costs 63,000, and Chen Dongcheng has never eaten it.
Fatty Xu told the waiter again: "Bring 9 portions of super abalone."
"The fat man will be fine. Our brothers will collect some money for you soon."
Wei Ziliang and the others are usually reluctant to be so extravagant, so the price of this super abalone is 3800.
"Don't worry, eat your food. Fatty, I just collected the rent yesterday, so just eat with peace of mind."
Fatty Xu waved his hand and then ordered: "Black and white top quality caviar, 8 taels of Yangtze River crabs, and salt-fried top quality Miyazaki steak are all 9 points. Finally, let's have the seared wild snails. You can match the rest."
If the waitress hadn't known that Fatty Xu was a VIP at Xijiao No. 5, she wouldn't have brought out this hidden menu.
After all, if someone takes a picture of such an expensive menu and shows it out, Xijiao No. 5 will easily cause controversy if it charges such an expensive price.
Therefore, their family always adopts two menus.
Only when an acquaintance leads the way can you get this truly top-notch menu.
"Okay, Mr. Xu, let's get ready now."
The waitress said to Fatty Xu very respectfully, and then went out with the menu to order the dishes.
"Hey, fat man, you went to this table for 300,000 yuan!"
Wei Ziliang was a little curious: "Fat man, you are so attentive for nothing, how can you have fun?"
"I would like to ask Mr. Chen for a favor."
Fatty Xu took the hot towel prepared on the table and wiped the sweat from his forehead: "Master Chen, I would like to have the opportunity to cooperate with you."
"Didn't we already cooperate?"
Chen Dongcheng looked at Fatty Xu and asked.
"It's not the nightclub, I'm talking about Mr. Chen's other companies. I want to invest in them."
Fatty Xu corrected.
Wei Ziliang saw Chen Dongcheng thinking and joked: "I wonder why you are so generous, Fatty. It turns out you have ideas for Mr. Chen's company."
"Otherwise, do you think that I, Fatty Xu, am a free treat?"
Fatty Xu looked at Chen Dongcheng and said, "Mr. Chen, I have some money, but I don't know how to invest it.
But I can assure you that I just want to invest with you and make some money. As for other things like seizing power, don’t worry, I have absolutely no idea."
"Which one do you want to invest in?"
"Keep or Little Blue Book will do. I'll listen to Mr. Chen."
"Keep it, I will bring you one in the next round of investment."
Chen Dongcheng attaches far more importance to Little Blue Book than keep.
I would rather release the shares of keep than lose the shares of Xiaolanshu.
"That's it, Fatty, I'll thank Mr. Chen first!"
Fatty Xu picked up the cup of Yunnan Dian black tea with a smile.
"Little things."
Chen Dongcheng didn't care much. Keep needed financing anyway, and it didn't matter who took the money.
Fatty Xu was very happy, he was almost the same as Chen Dongcheng before.
Although he has money, he has no investment opportunities. Potential companies look down on Fatty Xu because he has no resources.
Fatty Xu was worried about his company because he was afraid that all his money would be wasted.
Fatty Xu is not greedy. If you can earn 20% of the money you invest, that is better than leaving it to a fund institution.
"How much money can you take out?"
"It's not difficult to make it within 50 million. If you grit your teeth, you can even make 100 million."
Fatty Xu is very confident. His family started out in real estate.
He is also one of the many real estate giants in the country, and his family background is much stronger than that of Wei Ziliang and others.
"Fat man, that's enough."
Wei Ziliang and Yu Jiasi rolled their eyes at the same time.
They have tens of millions at home, and they can get it out by gritting their teeth.
But if you want to spend one or two billion, it's just a dream.
Fatty Xu ignored them and looked at Chen Dongcheng with burning eyes. This man's answer was the most important.
"If you invest in my company, you can make enough money to pay for today's meal a hundred times."
When Chen Dongcheng said this, Fatty Xu knew that his investment in Chen Dongcheng's company was successful.
"Mr. Chen, I'd like to thank you first, fat man."
Fatty Xu raised his tea cup again.
"It's easy to tell. Do you have an offshore company?"
"Yes, we all have it. It doesn't cost a lot of money a year. A bunch of companies can handle it for us."
"In the next round, the post-investment valuation should reach US$200 million, and US$30 million will be raised."
Wei Ziliang and the others calculated quietly, and the girls calculated in a simpler way.
Doesn't that mean that Mr. Chen's company in front of him is valued at nearly one billion?
Wow, so rich.
Fatty Xu was still very calm: "Mr. Chen, who is leading the investment in this round? How much can I invest?"
“I don’t know who will lead the investment at the moment, but I’ll give you an investment share of at least US$5 million, which is fine.”
Fatty Xu is also quite content.
Besides, this was his first time investing in the Internet, so he didn't know whether it was risky or not.
"Then I'll listen to Mr. Chen."
At this time, the waiters also started to serve the dishes one after another, and they brought their own drinks.
Fatty Xu came prepared and brought a box of red wine.
That’s how you make wild large yellow croaker steamed.
Another recipe of "frozen yellow croaker among flowers" made everyone marvel when the waiter served it.
A chef came to the table and introduced: "The method of making this dish is to first dry the fish, condense it, and steam it in a steamer.
Then use small fish stew to filter and freeze, and finally shape it together with yellow croaker to form a crystal-clear and moist appearance like the current amber.
I'd like to trouble you to sprinkle caviar on the surface of the frozen yellow croaker later, which will enhance the freshness."
After saying that, the chef started to operate with a knife.
Cut off pieces of frozen yellow croaker and place them on each person's plate.
The chef went on to explain: “The so-called black and white roe are actually sturgeon roe.
It’s just that the white color is very rare. You don’t know whether the roe is white until you open the fish, and only one in thousands can look like this.”
A girl asked curiously: "What is the difference between this kind of caviar and that of other restaurants?"
"Madam, the caviar in our restaurant is also divided into two types.
Ordinary diners outside eat ordinary caviar, but what you eat is the best."
Fatty Xu explained it in the simplest way: "Ordinary diners' caviar costs three to four hundred, with some crab meat added in. The black and white caviar we ate cost five thousand a portion."
The chef smiled and nodded: "Mr. Xu is right."
The caviar is covered on top of the frozen yellow croaker, which makes it a little salty and fresh in the mouth.
Then the fish jelly melted in the mouth, and the caviar burst in the mouth.
After eating this one bite, several hundred yuan will be gone.
Chen Dongcheng secretly kept this restaurant in mind and planned to check in more times in the future.
As the level increases, the experience points for upgrading also become a problem.
In such a place where consumption is expensive, a few grasses must be planted.
"Fat man, what are their membership requirements?"
"There are not many requirements. It seems that if you spend a certain amount of money, you can get one, and you can see the hidden menu when you come to eat later."
Fatty Xu smiled and said: "About three hundred thousand is enough. Our table today meets the conditions."
Three hundred thousand is too much for ordinary people, but for Chen Dongcheng and others, it may really be just a meal.
