Chapter 629: Husband Does Not Suffer Misfortune

The weather was sunny and the breeze was cool. The trees, flowers and plants swayed gently in the breeze.

The scenery of this yard is picturesque and makes people feel relaxed and happy.

The people discussing things here were basking in the sun, and the atmosphere was peaceful and immersive.

Several people were listening to the conversation between the two people, and had no intention of interrupting. Whether the negotiation was going well or not, they could not help much. Liu Tianxian cut the peeled apple into pieces, stuck toothpicks on them, and passed them to several people.

It's quite comfortable to be taken care of.

At least Wu Kebo felt comfortable. The fact that the principal invited them to his home to discuss matters proved that he had no ill will towards them and treated them like guests, which was at least better than ordinary people.

Generally speaking, Fang Hong rarely invites others to his home to discuss things.

"Okay, then let's talk about the selling price of mainland cinemas." Fang Hong went straight to the point. Seeing that the other party did not want to sell cinemas in Southeast Asia for the time being, he gave up.

In fact, he had no intention of entering Southeast Asia, as it was difficult to manage due to its out-of-reach. There were many countries in the region, and it would be troublesome to have different policies for each place.

Generally, Yutu’s overseas films are handed over to Universal, Warner, Southeast Asia or Yindu, which saves trouble.

"Principal, I won't bargain with you. 38 billion, 76 cinemas in mainland China, 531 screens, I'll package them all for you." Wu Kebo gave a price.

This price is not very sincere, equivalent to about 5000 million for a cinema, and a screen, or a theater, costs 715 million.

Generally speaking, the cost of building a high-end cinema is between 5 million and 10 million yuan. Of course, there are also higher costs, up to tens of millions.

This depends on the infrastructure. If all the cinema halls are equipped with top-notch audio equipment, full leather automatic seats, and state-of-the-art decoration, there is no limit to the price it will cost.

This is without taking into account the location.

They are acquiring companies, so of course they cannot be calculated based on top-level performance. Who knows what the situation is like in Orange Sky Golden Harvest’s theaters?

"Mr. Wu, can you lower the price a little bit?" When Liu Tianxian heard the price, he wanted to bargain.

She didn't know whether it was reasonable or not, but she had to talk about the first wave of bidding anyway, and after she finished speaking, her man spoke.

Jiang Zhiqiang looked at the few people without saying a word, listening to their negotiation. This was not a secret, and one could find out by asking around once the deal was done.

Liu Xiaoli also looked serious. It was her first time to be involved in a business worth tens of billions, so she was a little too casual.

It was just a casual conversation, not in a formal setting!

"Originally, this price is within a reasonable range. I just ate your apple, and I'd feel embarrassed if you didn't lower the price." Wu Kebo showed the apple piece in his hand, looking quite embarrassed.

"You're welcome. It's only right that I treat you to a meal. Let's talk about business as it should be. There's a saying that goes, the business world is like a battlefield. Just treat it as a war." Liu Tianxian said.

"Haha, Principal, your wife is interesting." Wu Kebo said with a smile.

The others laughed too.

"She is so straightforward. She says what she thinks. She doesn't use those roundabout ways like us," Fang Hong explained.

"Very good, very good. I like this personality. There aren't so many intrigues and it's comfortable to get along with him. How about this, I'll be direct and give you 4 million less, so the price will be 34 billion." Wu Kebo held up four fingers.

Jiang Zhiqiang and Liu Xiaoli looked at each other. They didn't expect that Liu Tianxian would give 4 million less right away. They thought there would be a heated argument.

This price is quite sincere. One cinema is equivalent to about 640 million, which is 75 less than before.

You have to know that there are 531 theaters, and each one has 75 less, so 4 million is a considerable number.

This is not a business worth tens of billions. The bargaining is only in tens of millions or millions. It is not common to get hundreds of millions at once.

Liu Tianxian didn't know whether the price was reasonable or not, so she looked at Fang Hong.

"Since Mr. Wu is so straightforward, I will be straightforward too. 34 billion!" Fang Hong stretched out his hand, and when he said the number later, his tone was very serious.

The transaction price in the previous life was about 33.87 billion. He was too lazy to talk about the matter of or million. It was enough that the price was about the same.

Maybe we can also acquire cinema assets in Southeast Asia later.

"I didn't expect the principal to be such a straightforward person. Let's make a deal." Wu Kebo shook his hand.

"Deal." Fang Hong said.

The deal was done so easily.

The business team will handle the details, and their bosses have only agreed on the rough outlines. It will take time to take over such a large asset.

"Okay, that's it. We'll leave now." Jiang Zhiqiang slapped his thigh and stood up.

"Have a meal before you leave. Your family has already bought groceries." Liu Tianxian stood up and tried to keep him.

"No, we still have things to do." Wu Kebo said.

"You've come all the way here, and if you leave without having a meal, we'd say we haven't treated you well enough." Liu Tianxian said.

"Next time, we will definitely come to eat next time." Jiang Zhiqiang said.

"Then let us take you there!" Liu Tianxian gestured.

Fang Hong followed, but Liu Xiaoli didn't, so she didn't see him off. It had nothing to do with her in the first place, she just happened to see him off.

The four of them walked outside, chatting as they walked.

"I didn't know you guys very well before, but I think you two are quite a good match." Wu Kebo chatted.

"Oh, really? Why do you say that?" Fang Hong was curious.

"One inside, one outside, one cold, one hot, when put together, it can produce a very good chemical reaction." Wu Kebo couldn't explain it, but that was just the feeling.

Liu Tianxian is inside and the principal is outside; the principal is cold and Liu Tianxian is warm, they complement each other very well.

"How does the saying go? If a husband has a virtuous wife, he will not suffer unexpected disasters; if a husband has a good wife, his son will not fall from grace." Jiang Zhiqiang is quite knowledgeable and what he said makes sense.

Liu Tianxian raised her head and laughed, “Goose, goose, goose.”

"What you said makes me feel proud. I feel very proud." Fang Hong said with a smile. "You should be proud. Others can't even think of it." Jiang Zhiqiang patted him on the shoulder.

He remembered that many people had wanted to introduce their sons and nephews to Liu Tianxian in the past, but none of them succeeded. At that time, this girl had a really good personality.

Lively, cheerful and straightforward, just like a fairy tale. Although he is more mature now, he can only be said to be more sensible.

Life is about growing up with age.

"Did you hear me? If you don't cherish me, you will regret it." Liu Tianxian seemed a little arrogant.

"The principal is not bad either. There is a saying that goes, 'A good husband helps his wife half way.'" Jiang Zhiqiang said.

A few people were walking and chatting, occasionally accompanied by loud laughter.

They soon arrived at the parking area and Jiang Zhiqiang and Wu Kebo got into a business car.

"Principal, let's talk about this in detail later." Wu Kebo said.

"Okay, I'll wait for your news." Fang Hong nodded.

"Goodbye, Principal, Yifei." Jiang Zhiqiang waved his hand.

"Goodbye, President Jiang, President Wu."

Liu Tianxian and Fang Hong also waved.

After watching the business car leave, the two walked into the house. Liu Tianxian asked, "Is the price reasonable?"

"It's still reasonable, but I can't bargain down to a higher price." Fang Hong said.

"Hehehe, do you want to rely on me? I will tell you everything right away." Liu Tianxian was proud.

"It's because of you that I have no space. If you didn't say anything, I might be able to get it lower." Fang Hong said.

"Tsk, then why don't you tell me?" Liu Tianxian didn't believe it.

"I'm just trying to save your face. You've already agreed on the price. If I go any further, it would make you lose face. Others don't even mention it, but look at Liu Tianxian. She has no status at all in the family." Fang Hong said seriously.

"I don't believe it. You just said the price was reasonable."

After Liu Tianxian said this, she was about to jump onto his back.

Fang Hong dodged and ran away, leaving her empty-handed.

"Can you run away from the monk or the temple? Sooner or later you will fall into my hands. So be quiet now and come and carry me." Liu Tianxian did not chase after him, but threatened with a smile, his fingers making a "cracking" sound.

"Who said that? I'm going to work in the morning and we'll have separate rooms at night." Fang Hong stopped and distanced himself from her.

"Then I'll tell your mother that your son doesn't want to sleep with me anymore." Liu Tianxian said.

Fang Hong squatted down. Not sleeping together was a serious matter. Xu Liyun was urging him to have a child.

Liu Tianxian threw herself on his back with a smile and patted his face: "Don't be so arrogant, that's all you can do."

"You're just not capable at all." Fang Hong held her buttocks with both hands and walked towards the lawn in the yard.

Heizi, who was originally playing with two cats, saw the two of them, snorted, and ran over, circling around them.

The two cats were brought back by Liu Tianxian from her mother's home.

"Sing a song for me, the song of the big sedan chair."

"The smile in my mouth is yo yo yo, and the happiness in my heart is lang ge li ge lang"

The singing could be heard from far away, and even Liu Xiaoli and Xu Liyun, who were chatting in the house, could hear it.

I couldn't help but shake my head and laugh, these two people are just like children.

Time flies, and soon it is mid-August. At this point, the summer vacation is almost over.

The box office of "The Return of the Great Sage", which has been released for more than a month, is also coming to an end. The total box office is 13.6 billion, but it has not reached 14 billion after all.

Over 4 billion is a very good result, million more than the previous life. It is normal, thanks to Yutu's unremitting promotion.

If it weren't for "Monster Hunt" and the gun version, the box office would have been even higher.

However, many movies now have gun version, but the clarity is different. If they are not made by professionals, they will not be so clear.

The box office of "Tiny Times 4" and "Gardenia Blossoms" released during the same period has decreased accordingly.

The former is 3.87 million, which is almost 1 million less than the previous life; the latter is 3.02 million, which is to million less than the previous life.

"Gardenia Blossoms" was strong in the early stage, but collapsed in the later stage.

There aren’t many other movies either, as there aren’t many spare screenings and box office revenues left for them.

"Monster Hunt" is still very popular. In about 21.83 days, the box office has collapsed to 20 billion. (The -day box office data in the previous chapter was miscalculated.)
And it hasn't been taken off the screen yet. They said it will be postponed for another 30 days, so it will be released for 60 days.

Anyway, I don't know who is watching it. The box office is very strange. The numbers are very similar every day. Everyone knows that this movie has boosted the box office and become famous. After all, the people above have been involved.

There are also many complaints online, saying that the movie is childish and the plot is boring.

The movie "The Pancake Man" is also coming to an end, and the total box office has exceeded 11 billion, and the box office has been sluggish.

Now it depends on "Monster Hunt" to stand out and see how much they can finally get.

If you really want to surpass "Gravity", you'll have to spend a lot of money, because the later the movie is, the fewer people will watch it, so the number of viewers will have to increase.

Fang Hong and his team have been busy recently taking over Orange Sky Golden Harvest's cinema assets in mainland China, with the payment method being 50% first, which is 17 billion.

The remaining balance can be paid off within this year. Orange Sky Golden Harvest needs this money to pay off its debts.
