China Entertainment Anchor

Chapter 921 Let’s take a photo
"Rice is about to go public. He probably came to ask me to buy stocks."

Liu Yifei suddenly showed a look of understanding. She had heard Zhang Yang talk about this.

"How much are you going to buy?" she asked curiously.

"It depends on what price he gives me." Zhang Yang knew that rice's stock price has basically been falling since it was listed on the market.

It wasn't until the Warwick accident that their stock price took off, so he was destined not to buy too much this time.

"The market is not very good now, why did they choose this time to go public?" Liu's mother looked confused after listening to the conversation between Zhang Yang and Liu Yifei.

Anyone who pays a little attention to the news knows that the friction between China and the West has caused global stock markets to plummet, market uncertainty has greatly increased, and panic has become serious.

During this period, the new economy companies that landed in Hong Kong repeatedly broke their stocks, further overdrafting investor confidence.

"How could Rebus not know what everyone knows? They must have their own plans." Zhang Yang estimated that the fact that Da Mi has so much cash reserves to make cars has something to do with this listing.

The next morning, around nine o'clock, while Zhang Yang was still exercising at home, his assistant called and Rebus had already arrived with someone.

He checked the time on the treadmill and saw that it was less than 9:. People of the older generation like to play this game.
After stopping the treadmill, Zhang Yang told his assistant to get Secretary Li ready.

I took a shower first and changed into a blue T-shirt and jeans before going to the studio.

When you go to meet Rebus, of course you have to look like Zhang Bus.

When he arrived at the studio, the assistant, Secretary Li and others greeted him, and they went to the reception room together.

He walked into the room and found that besides Rebus and a few middle-aged rice workers, there was someone he knew well.

Zhou Shouzi is a person who is probably destined to Zhang Yang. He was born in Singapore, studied in Europe and the United States, and married an Asian American with a curved ancestry. Well, America likes people like this.

The Chinese people are familiar with him because of the hearing of the international version of Douyin in 2023, which made him famous all over the Internet.

The absurdity of this hearing was almost the same as that of the Oppenheimer hearings.

Will TikTok connect to home wifi? This is a question asked by Representative XX of the United States. It is so speechless that even Americans cannot listen.

Everyone exchanged polite words, and Zhang Yang still took his seat at the head of the table. The people from Dami, led by Rebus, sat on the left, and the people from Secretary Li's team sat on the right.

"Director Zhang, I haven't seen you for a long time since you didn't go to the Internet Conference." Rebus sighed to Zhang Yang.

"If I don't go, you guys will still be busy." Zhang Yang said with a smile.

"Let me introduce you to Zhou Shouzi, who was also born in 83..." Rebus told Zhang Yang his general experience.

"Mr. Lei has more and more generals."

"I want to learn more from Director Zhang. Your investment philosophy is very unique." Zhou Shouzi spoke very politely to Zhang Yang.
In his own life, he is already like a movie actor, but compared with Zhang Yang, he is like a fake actor.

Thinking of this week, Shouzi looked at Rebus again. Not to mention Zhang Yang, he couldn't compare even with his own boss. These two are not the leading actors in movies, but the leading actors in refreshing novels!

"Congratulations to Mr. Lei, your rice has come to life again recently." Zhang Yang smiled slightly and did not answer his words. Instead, he was polite to Rebus again.

Rebus waved his hand. He was currently feeling uncomfortable. In 2016, rice phone sales plummeted for the first time, and people within the company were panicked.

In desperation, he returned to take charge of the mobile phone department at the end of 16, and launched the Mi 6 last year, which helped the company's mobile phone sales rebound again.

But they were very uncomfortable with Warwick's sub-brand Rongyao.

Now the public opinion war between Da Mi and Rong Yao has to end personally, making him look like a dwarf when facing Warwick.

At present, he does not seem to be handsome in terms of public opinion war, but looks like he is going to charge into battle.

Rebus calmed down and reached out to his employee, who took out two mobile phones and handed them to the boss.

"Director Zhang, I only know that you know a lot about mobile phones. These are the rice MIX2 S and rice 6X we just released this year. Come and give us some advice." After Rebus took the phone, he gave them to Zhang. foreign.

After Zhang Yang took it, he took the rice MIX2 S and started looking at it. As for the rice 6X, he didn't even look at it.

Rice's MIX series officially started the exploration of full-screen mobile phones, and eventually became mainstream. Moreover, his Rice MIX was collected by three museums in Finland, Germany and France, and is full of gold content.

"The MIX series is good. Your company has ideas for mobile phones..."

"What about 6X?"

Zhang Yang laughed: "Mr. Lei, you also said that I know how to use mobile phones, but I am not Li Huanggua."

When Rebus met Li Huanggua in early May, he also gave him these two mobile phones for him to appreciate.

Rebus listened to Zhang Yang's words with no emotion on his face. He looked at his employee, who handed Rebus a mobile phone.

After he took it, he gave it to Zhang Yang. This is the mobile phone rice 6 that has made a large number of people become nail users. It is also the most valuable in the rice mobile phone series. From the release to the discontinuation, its price has basically not been reduced.

Zhang Yang played with Mi 6 for a while and then took out his mobile phone.

The p20 was just released by Warwick this year. It was released on the same day as the rice MIX2S. The competition is self-evident.

When Rebus saw that Zhang Yang was now using P20, his expression remained unchanged. Instead, he sincerely asked: "How is this Huawei phone?" He was still very concerned about competing products.

"The appearance is a bit ugly, not as good as your MIX2S, but he is using Kirin 970." Zhang Yang looked at Rebus and pointed directly at Mingmen. This is the fundamental reason why Warwick has achieved such good results in China.
Why do many people support it so much? Isn't it because of this Chinese chip, even if its brand premium is increasing?

Rebus nodded. There was still a big gap between their company and Warwick in terms of technology. This was a fact that had to be admitted.

"But our rice also has advantages. Our products are getting more and more..." Zhou Shouzi began to talk about their company's advantages,
Since Leshi died, Daimi has made rapid progress in the field of televisions. In addition, their company has produced a lot of products.

There are rice cookers, air conditioners, projectors, electric toothbrushes... It's dizzying to see. There is also a rice Al speaker, which is a bet on the right track. In the next two years, smart speakers will be particularly popular.

"What's the significance of these things?" Secretary Li asked after Zhou Shouzi finished speaking.

Today's rice investment game has begun unknowingly. If Secretary Li cannot refute Zhou Shouzi well, normally it will have some impact on Zhang Yang.

It's a pity that they don't know that Zhang Yang is a wall hanging. The meaning of their exchange is that he wants to train Secretary Li. After all, investment after 24 years will depend on his true ability.

"These things of ours do not exist alone. They are based on mobile phones..."

"Although your mobile phone business is picking up now, it is not as brave as it used to be." Secretary Li said in a calm voice.

You must know that in 15, rice’s domestic mobile phone share was the first. Although rice’s mobile phone business picked up last year,
Unfortunately, Warwick has made faster progress, and OV has also relied on offline channels to counterattack. Rice’s domestic mobile phone sales in 17 only ranked fifth.

Many people in later generations have predicted that if nothing happens to Warwick, its domestic market share will reach 50%, which is really scary.

The two started a "friendly" exchange, and Zhang Yang and Rebus listened quietly without speaking.

After some exchanges between the two parties, they both felt that the other party was not an easy person to deal with, and overall they were evenly matched.

They talked for about half an hour, and Zhang Yang was playing with Rice MIX2S. He inadvertently looked up at Rebus, and he was actually playing with his mobile phone as well.

Rebus seemed to feel Zhang Yang's gaze. He raised his head, the two looked at each other, and then both laughed.

"Xiao Zhou, tell Director Zhang about our rice launch situation." Rebus smiled and told Zhou Shouzi that all the efforts that should be done today have been done, and it is time to see the results.

Zhou Shouzi nodded and talked about the details of their listing. Finally, he talked about the most critical thing, pricing!
"The listing price of rice is between 17 and 22 Hong Kong dollars. For people and institutions who subscribe in advance, the price we offer is 13 Hong Kong dollars, and the closing period is half a year." On the surface, the profits provided here are quite high, but the risks are also very high. big.

"I'll buy it for 100 million!" Zhang Yang said casually after hearing the price, and he didn't bargain.

Zhou Shouzi looked at Zhang Yang in surprise. He didn't know whether Zhang Yang was not optimistic about the future of their rice, or whether he thought the price was too high.

Li Huanggua bought it for 3000 million US dollars, which is equivalent to a little more than 2 million yuan. Of course, the price he bought was not 13 Hong Kong dollars.

He glanced at Rebus again, and the two made eye contact.

"For Director Zhang, we naturally have to be different. You are the stock god in the entertainment industry, and the price is HK$10."

"Then buy 2 million." Following Zhou Shouzi's explanation, Zhang Yang doubled the amount.

Rebus was a little surprised. It seemed that everyone was not very optimistic about his rice being put on the market.
Not only Zhang Yang, but also Lao Ma, Xiao Ma, Li Huagua and others didn't buy much, more for their own sake.

But he still has confidence in his rice, because he has chosen the new track and everything is going in order.

When Zhou Shouzi heard Zhang Yang's decision, he looked at Rebus again, but he didn't say anything this time. Zhou Shouzi also understood what his boss meant.

The two parties then began to sign relevant contracts, and Zhang Yang also chatted with Rebus.

After the contract was signed and they were about to say goodbye, Rebus suddenly suggested to Zhang Yang: "Let's take a photo together!"

He wanted to use the photo with Zhang Yang for marketing purposes to increase Mi's momentum. Look, Zhang Yang has subscribed to our stocks.

Of course, he would not say it so straightforwardly, but any smart person can make a rough guess. What China is most in need of are smart people.

Zhang Yang nodded and agreed, but he still had to give him some face.

The two of them looked exactly the same today at first glance, but Rebus was here for a visit after all. He was wearing a blue shirt and jeans, which was a little more formal than Zhang Yang.

By the time Zhang Yang saw off Rebus and his party and returned to the lobby, Secretary Li's team members had already returned to their departments, but he himself had not left.

"You still have something to do." Zhang Yang asked confused when he saw Secretary Li.

"Boss, should we observe the market?" Secretary Li asked.

He had a rough idea of ​​Zhang Yang's cash situation. It didn't matter that it only had more than 1 million US dollars before.

Now that the box office split of "The Meg" has been settled, nearly US$2 million has been accounted for.
The boss earned another US$1 million from "Oppenheimer", and in another month, the box office split of "Her" will also come down. This time it will be even more incredible, reaching about US$ million.

As a result, the boss has 8 million US dollars in cash. It is a waste to put so much cash in the bank.

He felt his time had come to shine and the studio could invest again.

Zhang Yang thought for a while, besides buying gold, are there any other good projects now?
"You can take a look and tell me if there are any particularly good ones."

Secretary Li felt a little disappointed when he heard Zhang Yang's words. He knew that his boss didn't have much investment intention at the moment.

But it seemed like nothing. He could use this time to solve his personal problems.

"Okay." Secretary Li returned with a smile.

Zhang Yang looked at his smiling face a little confused. Didn't he understand what he meant? Or have you discovered any good companies?
