It is agreed that the 18th line will be top-notch?

what happened?

Seeing Cheng Fei's tone, Yang Ruoqian did not agree with just a few perfunctory words as usual.

"Strange, why does Cheng Fei's attitude seem strange this time? She even asked me if I had a chance?"

Yang Ruoqian casually dealt with the high-quality customer who came to negotiate because he could not pay the rent, walked out of the reception room and came to the lounge.

"Boss Cheng, what's our relationship? You don't have to be so polite."

Cheng Fei: "That won't work. Official business must be handled in an official manner."

Business...Every time Chengyu Media mentioned business, Mr. Yang was very alert.

After all, Cheng Fei has already caused a lot of losses to the group using similar excuses.

"In that case, I won't be polite." Yang Ruoqian immediately took advantage of the situation and gave the other party a warning that "I might really reject you." "Mr. Cheng, just tell me what you think."

Cheng Fei said in a very serious tone: "Boss Yang, I hope Chengyu Media can get a spot in the cinema on the 'Liu Guang' cruise ship. We will pay the price and we will not pay less."

As an ultra-large luxury cruise ship weighing more than 100,000 tons, it is natural that there are entertainment venues such as cinemas in the cabin.

This cinema is not a fake cinema that only has a few chairs and a big screen and plays movies that have been released long ago for the audience.

It is a real cinema that will screen all available movies simultaneously with other cinemas around the world!

Tourists on the ship can actually watch the latest newly released movies that cannot be found on the Internet.

As a cinema at sea, its scale is certainly not comparable to that of cinemas on land. A screening can only accommodate about 220 people at most. Due to cost issues, the ticket price is much higher than that of ordinary cinemas.

However, even so, this type of cinema is in short supply on cruise ships, and no matter what movie is about to be shown, the number of reservations will be full.

This is true even for well-known bad movies - after all, watching a movie in a cinema at sea is more about the atmosphere than the actual experience.

It doesn't matter what the movie is about, what matters is that you have watched the movie in this cinema.

In other words, whoever can get a seat in this cinema can make money without doing anything. As long as the service standards are in place and the playback equipment and seating equipment are up to standard, even if a baby of a few years old is placed in this seat, money can be made.

Even if it's Cheng Fei, if she wants to get this cinema, she has to negotiate it properly.

However, when Mr. Yang saw this, he just smiled suddenly - he thought it was a big deal, but it turned out to be this thing.

The cruise ship was purchased, but renting out the various shops on the cruise ship was a top priority. Yang Ruoqian was eager for someone to find an excuse for him to sell these shops.

Yang Ruoqian laughed: "Is this all Mr. Cheng wants? It's nothing. If you send someone to come to the company at some time, I will rent the shop to you at a normal price."

Although it is called a normal price, in fact, the normal price of Kuiguang Group is the normal price with Kuiguang characteristics.

Anyway, I can always find an excuse to make it cheaper than the market price.

"Mr. Yang, my idea is a little more complicated." Cheng Fei did not agree immediately, and began to explain her idea, "Since the entire cruise ship is a future AI-style cruise ship, then the cinema may also be made in a similar style."

Yang Ruoqian would definitely not miss such a costly project as the renovation of the cinema style. He affirmed Cheng Fei's idea: "Our project plan includes Mr. Cheng's idea... The Streamer Cruise will undergo a comprehensive renovation, and there will not be any blind spots."

Cheng Fei: "Boss Yang, I heard that you are already planning to prepare a movie about Luo Rujin, and the theme is AI riot, right?"

The film is still in the preliminary preparation stage. The news was not deliberately concealed from Chengyu Media, but it was not officially notified either.

So Cheng Fei needs to confirm it again.

Yang Ruoqian affirmed: "Yes, but there is no complete plan yet. We need to wait a few more days... Uh, Mr. Cheng wants the cinema and this movie to be linked on the Streamer?"

Although Mr. Yang, who has been cheated so many times, is not as magical as the rumors outside the company say, such obvious things can still be inferred.

As expected, Cheng Fei's tone immediately became excited: "Yes, Mr. Yang! On a cruise ship with the theme of intelligent AI, in a place with Luo Rujin as the core, the premiere of related themes starring Luo Rujin, this level of linkage will definitely bring the tourists' experience to a whole new level!"

"For a cruise ship's maiden voyage, especially one with a relatively high ticket price, the most important thing is the word-of-mouth accumulation of the first wave of guests."

"To be fair, the things you can do and experience on a cruise ship can be better experienced on land...but cruise ships have a great advantage over them, which is that they are highly integrated."

Who can enjoy a sea roller coaster by taking an elevator, who can get off the roller coaster and walk two steps to board a sea helicopter and experience the thrill of taking off and landing on the sea?

After playing, you can choose your favorite meal in a variety of restaurants to replenish your energy in just a few steps, then go to the cinema to watch the latest movie, and then go to the concert site to watch the tour concert of the star of the movie...

On land, such a hugely different project would take at least two or three days just to travel the distance.

The high-intensity and continuous stimulation for tourists is the biggest advantage of the cruise project.

Cheng Fei continued, "Boss Yang, we have worked together so many times. As long as you let me take care of the cinema project, I believe that with our tacit cooperation, the cinema will definitely become a must-visit place in all major 'Liuguanghao Guides'."

Just now, Yang Ruoqian said that the cinema’s stalls could be rented to Chengyu Media.

But Cheng Fei said so much, the most important point was the last two words "full authority".

Full authority means that Chengyu Media will independently build and operate the cinema.

For most other shops, even if they are rented out to corresponding merchants, for the sake of the overall style and quality control of the cruise ship, the service standards must be based on the cruise ship, and the employees inside must obey the management of the ship - it doesn't mean that this is your store and you can do whatever you want.

And Cheng Fei hopes to gain more authority?
Seeing that Yang Ruoqian did not respond immediately, Cheng Fei immediately added: "Boss Yang, in terms of service standards and management, the people in the cinema will follow your standards, and we can even let the official employees of the ship directly serve as the cinema staff. What I want is the qualification to design a cinema."

Yang Ruoqian looked a little confused and asked, "Boss Cheng, do you want your engineering team to design the cinema alone?" "Yes, I know this request is not common, so Chengyu Media is willing to rent it at a high premium." Cheng Fei's attitude was very sincere, "The design style of the entire cinema will not deviate from the style of the entire cruise ship, you can rest assured."

Let them design it themselves?
Yang Ruoqian looked a little confused - is there any difference between this and the group designing it themselves?

As a big spender, Mr. Yang's cinema is naturally not an ordinary cinema. It will definitely be equipped with various massage equipment, 3D equipment and interactive equipment.

Even if Chengyu Media accepts it, it shouldn't be too different, right?
"Mr. Yang, Chengyu Media is planning to build its own cinema network recently." Cheng Fei explained, "Starting from scratch on a cruise ship will allow our team to accumulate some design and operation experience. I know you have high requirements for hardware, rest assured, our team will design it completely according to your standards."

A cinema with a novel style, not too large in scale, and capable of accommodating guests of all levels is a rare opportunity for Chengyu Media, which wants to set up a cinema chain.

Even though the cheapest room on a cruise ship can easily cost several thousand dollars, which seems shockingly expensive, the actual average price of a room divided by the number of people and then by the number of nights is not that high.

In addition, there are many free meals and free entertainment programs on the cruise ship. If you are not the kind of guest who insists on pursuing a complete experience, most people will only choose two or three favorite programs at most.

Unless you are a guest who has booked a high-end luxury suite, the average cost of this cruise trip is actually very affordable.

Of course, there are affordable interior cabins with no sea view and smaller space, and there are naturally high-end panoramic sea view suites, whose space is comparable to that of a large flat.

There are also some less luxurious, but still very expensive rooms further down.

Therefore, the guests on a cruise ship can be said to be a mixed bag.

Cheng Fei naturally would not miss such a great "experimental opportunity".

If it were any other shipowner, they would definitely not agree to such a request - the ship has been built, the style is fixed, and it would be troublesome, costly and prone to disputes to argue about these things.

What's more, this 100% successful cinema can not only accumulate word-of-mouth for "Liuguanghao", but also accumulate word-of-mouth for the cinema itself.

If it were somewhere else, the cinema might have unsatisfactory customer flow due to various reasons.

Cheng Fei didn't even plan to make money from Liuguang Cinema. Even if she had to give money to Kuiguang Group, she had to find a way to get this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the second episode.

Anyway, Chengyu Media has already made a lot of money from its many collaborations with Kuiguang Group, so it doesn’t matter if it gives up some profits.

Yang Ruoqian roughly understood Cheng Fei's thoughts and sneered, "I see... In other words, Mr. Cheng intends to obtain a series of operating rights, including the construction of a cinema?"

"Yes." Cheng Fei emphasized again, "We can offer a higher premium price."

Even if you are a partner, you can't be too confident.

But Cheng Fei emphasized this sentence many times, and the meaning was very clear - Mr. Yang, you can just decide the price, as long as you name a number, she will agree.

Yang Ruoqian understood what Cheng Fei meant, but in this last-ditch effort and with all projects fully mobilized this quarter, he had to be responsible for every project to the end.

So you have to pretend to be confused!
"That's not right." Yang Ruoqian calmly pointed out a "loophole" in Cheng Fei's words. "Since you are building the cinema on behalf of our engineering team, it means that you pay more and we pay less... Why do you want us to offer a higher rental price in the end?"

Cheng Fei: “Ah?”

Cheng Fei, who had anticipated the resistance to this proposal, had already made preparations for a long-term attack and was prepared to spend a lot of money to pave the way. After typing out one paragraph, she immediately typed out another long and eloquent speech with the purpose of taking over this cinema.

But I didn't expect to get stuck at the first step.

What is Mr. Yang saying?

Because we have more authority, even if the cost of building the cinema is higher, we have to give the shipowner more benefits!
The construction cost will soon be diluted to near zero in long-term operation, so it is naturally not within the scope of negotiation considerations.

Why else could this be possible? Is this also considered a loophole?
She thought of many possible reactions from Yang Ruoqian, and came up with countless countermeasures. She kept a large amount of resources within the company that could be mobilized at any time and delivered to the Kuiguang Group as bargaining chips. However, she never expected that Yang would defeat her with just the first sentence.

Without waiting for Cheng Fei to continue organizing his words, Yang Ruoqian said, "Since your group has paid for the construction of the cinema, the rent and so on, the group should give you a discount. I'm not sure how much the discount will be, I'll let my people tell you when the time comes."

Mr. Yang was afraid that telling people the specific discount would scare them to death, so he had to find someone to convey it.

Cheng Fei felt as if she had returned to the time when the two companies had just started to cooperate. She could not imagine what Yang Ruoqian would do next: "Boss Yang, this..."

Yang Ruoqian immediately made a conclusion on the matter: "Then I wish us a happy cooperation! I am looking forward to Chief Designer Cheng's performance at the movie premiere. That's it. I have a very important internal meeting here, so let's not talk about it for now."

After typing this line, Mr. Yang returned to the president's office refreshed and rewarded himself with a game.

It’s only the first morning and two hot potatoes have been sold at low prices. This is a good start for this quarter!
……

On the other side, Chengyu Media conference room.

Several Chengyu think tanks who were on high alert, watching the two big bosses negotiate throughout the process and ready to come up with corresponding strategies at any time fell silent.

The several plans they prepared overtime overnight just turned into waste paper?
The Kuiguang Group really didn't treat Chengyu as an outsider?

Cheng Fei looked at the screen, sighed, and waved her hand to signal the elites to put the files away.

After all the multimedia devices were turned off, she sighed, "This is the magnanimity of Mr. Yang, and this is the pattern of Kuiguang Group."

“And what are we still doing? We are still spending our precious energy on negotiations instead of the quality of the theaters themselves…”

“It was a mistake on my part.”

"But it doesn't matter. We will definitely give them a cinema that will amaze them and be called a spectacle! We will never let down the trust our partners have placed in us!"
