Assistant Zhou took the two of them to a modern building. Qin Xiaobao had just mentioned that it was the work of a famous domestic designer, but Qin Xiaobao had forgotten it.
The interior is very simple, with many artworks hanging on the walls and in the corners, which may be priceless.
After walking up the unique circular staircase to the third floor, Ma Yun walked over with a smile.
"Mr. Zhang, Director Qin."
"Mr. Ma."
"Mr. Ma."
"Come and take a seat." Ma Yun stretched out her left hand.
The entire third floor is just a reception room, surrounded by glass windows. You can see the scenery outside the window at 360 degrees without any blind spots. There is no need to turn on the lights at all. It is very bright.
No need to say hello, someone will bring you green tea.
"Longjing before the rain, you two can have a taste." The three of them sat down, and Ma Yun looked at her brother first: "Mr. Zhang, we haven't seen you for a long time."
"Yes," my brother nodded: "It's been seven or eight years, the last time was in 13 or 14 years."
"Thirteen years," Ma Yun remembers clearly: "After so many years, Mr. Zhang has not changed at all."
Qin Xiaobao was not in a hurry while listening to their greetings, and took a sip of the legendary Yuqian Longjing. Well...it was fragrant, smooth in the mouth, and had a sweet aftertaste. It was probably expensive.
"Is Director Qin still used to drinking?" Ma Yun did not ignore him.
"Well, it's very good. Although I don't know much about tea, it's my first time to drink it, but it's very comfortable." Qin Xiaobao praised.
"If Director Qin likes it, I will send some to you later."
"Then I'm being disrespectful. I just want to be filial to my father-in-law." Qin Xiaobao was not polite to Ma Yun because the other party was not short of money.
"Mr. Ma," my brother asked, "how did you know we were coming to Hangzhou? You even sent us an invitation."
"Oh, I just saw the news." It was the same as Qin Xiaobao guessed: "I have always wanted to meet Director Qin to get to know each other, but I never had a good chance. Please forgive me for being a little abrupt."
"Don't dare."
Business exchanges are essential, and Qin Xiaobao is somewhat nervous.
This is a real boss, one of the richest men in China. He has absolute capital and is an absolute giant. He cannot remain calm.
Even if you don't ask for anything from him, your heart will still beat fast.
What the three of them have in common is "Let the Bullets Fly", so they inevitably have to talk about it.
"What stage is the movie in now? I'm looking forward to it. There are so many outstanding actors starring together." Ma Yun asked. It's true that Alibaba is an investor, but 60 million is just a drop in the bucket for the entire group. He doesn't know how much it will cost.
normal.
"The editing work will be completed in about mid-July, followed by dubbing, soundtrack, subtitles, etc. It is expected that it will be completed by September at the latest." Qin Xiaobao is a bit like a report work, without going into too much detail, as long as there are time points.
The big shot opposite me is someone who can make movies to entertain himself.
"Currently, the publicity work has been slowly carried out, and the event is scheduled to be held on January 25 next year, the first day of the Lunar New Year."
"It's a Lunar New Year movie. It's pretty good. Do you have any estimates on the box office? Can it be ranked number one in film history?"
The rankings are different from those on Earth. There is no "Wolf Warrior" here. The number one movie is "Tianshan" by Zhang Yimou, with a national box office of 4.2 billion and a global box office of 8.3 billion yuan.
The reason is simple, it's beautiful. Although it didn't win an Oscar, it was nominated for Best Picture, Best Actor, and won several awards such as Best Screenplay, Best Artwork, Music, and Editing.
That year, Zhang Yimou was extremely prosperous.
"I really want to, but the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. I can't be jealous." Qin Xiaobao said with a smile: "But I think it should be no problem to make money. As for the specific amount, it's hard to say."
Ma Yun admitted that he likes movies very much. Alibaba also has related business and understands the risks of movie investment.
"Now that this work is finished, what are Director Qin's next plans?"
"Let's finish our studies first. Last year, I was already behind a lot because of filming. I plan to graduate first."
"Yes, I remember you studied directing at Magic Theater, right?" Ma Yun also knew.
"Well, it's still a bit difficult without systematic study. I've become a monk halfway and don't have any foundation at all."
"You're being modest," Ma Yun smiled: "Three movies have achieved good box office and word-of-mouth success. It's pure personal strength. But you are still young, so it is beneficial to learn more and accumulate."
"Mr. Ma didn't ask us just to make tea, right?" Brother Ma was more direct.
Ma Yun put down her teacup: "Then let me tell you what I have to say. I am quite interested in your kiwi fruit. I don't know if I will accept the investment?"
Qin Xiaobao and Qin Xiaobao looked at each other.
"Thanks to Mr. Ma, the company is actually not short of money at the moment," Qin Xiaobao said slowly after thinking for a while: "If you want to make a big investment and take absolute control, it may be a bit difficult."
"Does Director Qin have no idea of going public?"
"I don't have the ambitions you have, Mr. Ma. The standard of my life and work is to be wealthy and peaceful," Qin Xiaobao pointed out the window: "It may not be possible to invest 100 million to buy yourself a suite in a scenic spot, but it's almost the same to find a beautiful place.
It is not difficult at all to live the life of leisurely Yun Yehe in the small countryside.
Didn't you say something at the beginning, "I'm sorry to have killed Ali, but I don't want to be driven forward."
"As expected, he is an artist, but his thoughts are different from those of us businessmen." Ma Yun was not embarrassed after being rejected: "There is no rush in this matter. You are very young, and the company is also very young. You may not know what will happen in the future, right."
Qin Xiaobao did not deny this: "Yes, maybe I will be angry in a few years and regret not agreeing to Mr. Ma today."
"Hahahaha, what if we don't hold a controlling stake?" Ma Yun did not give up: "For example, like Mr. Zhang, how about injecting capital and obtaining part of the shares? The person who is talking is still you."
Qin Xiaobao's heart was moved.
This is Alibaba, this is Ma Yun, this is the largest e-commerce boss in the country!
Kiwi's current business is mainly divided into two parts, one is film shooting with him as the main focus, and the other is entertainers and stars.
No matter which aspect you consider, working with Alibaba is a huge benefit.
The resources the other party has cannot be measured by money, such as cinemas, connections, advertising, publicity...
As long as Alibaba's senior management gives an order, a huge machine will start immediately, which is comparable to what others have been working on for several months.
"How much does Mr. Ma want?"
"How much can you give?" Ma Yun showed a "cunning" smile.
This was a hot cake, and Qin Xiaobao was very moved, but his reason told him that he had to think about it in the long term.
Now his controlling stake is 46.5%. If he is given less, he is afraid that Alibaba will not be able to work hard because it will not make much sense.
If you give too much, you are seeking skin from a tiger. If something happens to you one day and you have financial problems, Kiwi will change his surname to Horse.
Although I don’t know much about the tricks and tricks inside, it definitely doesn’t hurt to be cautious.
"Why don't you do this, Mr. Ma? To you, this is a trivial matter, but to me and the company's employees, it is related to the future. Please give me some time so that my brother and I can have a meeting to discuss it after we go back."
Leslie Cheung was also standing by to express his support: "Indeed, even if we are shareholders, we have to digest such big news."
"No problem." Ma Yun didn't expect to decide the matter during the first meeting today. It's impossible and haste makes waste. "Xiao Zhou, please give Li Jie's contact information to Director Qin later."
After that, the three of them stopped talking about business and just chatted.
By the way, we also had dinner at the villa and tasted the real Lafite from 1982. The guests had a great time and said goodbye to each other before leaving.
