After divorce, I can hear the voice of the future

Chapter 66 Investing in Pandas
"Xiao Chen, please help me make an appointment with Wang Xiaocong."

Lu Liang knew Wang Xiaocong's past and found that he was taking a very new path, a bit like the American Kardashian.

By speaking out loudly on social platforms and being unique, one can attract a large number of people and consolidate one's personal brand.

For example, when Panda Interactive Entertainment was just established, there was no need for special publicity, as he himself was the spokesperson for the platform.

Invisibly, I don’t know how much promotion fees I saved.

The son of the richest man is at least not as brainless and bad-mouthing as he appears to be.

Chen Jinchun nodded, walked out of the office, and contacted Wang Xiaocong's assistant through Panda Interactive Entertainment's official website.

After introducing himself, he learned that Wang Xiaocong was currently in Shanghai, and the two sides agreed on a time and place to meet.

"Two-thirty in the afternoon, Riverside Cafe? Sure."

Lu Liang took one last look at the stock market, a straight line that looked like a heart stopping.

Lying quietly on the floor,

There is not even a tiny tip, just like a pool of stagnant water.

It is estimated that it will not break the board in the short term.

This wave will at least drop from 48 yuan to 25 yuan.

Lu Liang took Chen Jinchun to the Riverside Cafe.

I met Wang Xiaocong. He has a big head and thick neck. Except for his tall stature, he looks really like the CEO of Wanda.

"Hello, Mr. Wang, I'm Lu Liang."

The legal representative of Mengmengda Media is Li Manli, and it is also a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tianxing Investment.

Lu Liang came to meet with Wang Xiaocong in the capacity of the controlling shareholder of Tianxing Investment to discuss the live broadcast contract.

Live streaming and interactive entertainment are very different from what he believes in as life sharing.

But life sharing is just a vague concept in Lu Liang's mind.

He didn't know which way to go, so he decided to try live streaming first to learn more about it.

"Mr. Lu, I've heard of your great name for a long time. Your name is the one that my friends mention the most recently."

Wang Xiaocong was smiling and looking at Lu Liang.

If it were two weeks ago, he probably would not have met Lu Liang, even though Lu Liang is the actual controlling shareholder of Mengmengda Media.

But things are different now. The story of how No. 88 Pu Nan Road intercepted Zhongxin Fuying and Wu Junle and escaped with 1.28 million yuan last week has been widely circulated in the financial circle.

Lu Liang can also be considered a top figure and is worth associating with.

"Xiao Cong, we are of similar age, so let's not learn the false courtesy of the older generation."

Lu Liang's smile was very friendly. He used his sales talent to address the customer by name and narrowed the distance between the two people as quickly as possible.

Wang Xiaocong was slightly stunned, but soon reacted and asked curiously: "Lu Liang, what is your relationship with Li Xiaomeng?"

"I said that we are just pure friends, do you believe it?" Lu Liang asked with a smile.

"I believe it. Just like the entertainment reporters often slander me, they and I are just ordinary friends. It's normal for ordinary friends to drink together, right? It's also normal to stay in the same hotel, right?"

“It’s normal indeed.”

The two men smiled at each other and established a preliminary friendship through their common hobbies.

Gradually, the topic turned to work. Panda focuses on game live streaming, but Wang Xiaocong is not willing to just make games.

Over the years, he has been active in the e-sports circle and has acquired a team. He is quite famous and has no shortage of game anchors.

But in terms of appearance, there is still a lack of a pillar. He saw the potential of Li Xiaomeng and wanted to sign her to Panda Interactive Entertainment.

In the future, they will also enter the entertainment industry and create an online celebrity variety show.

"Lu Liang, I don't know if you have ever watched variety shows. The sponsorship fee for Running Man is 5.6 million, and The Voice of China is 11.3 billion. The money-making ability of variety shows in recent years is terrifying."

Wang Xiaocong wanted to bring Lu Liang in, and talked about the revenue from the reality show in the past two years, as well as Panda’s strategic goals.

Variety reality show is just the first step. He wants to build a pan-entertainment cultural empire and named this strategy Banana Project.

"If Panda needs investment, just let us know."

There was a flash of surprise in Lu Liang's eyes. He didn't expect that the two of them would think the same way.

Xiao Wang has a grand vision, probably wanting to build a pan-entertainment and cultural center like the Oriental Disney.

He wanted someone to help share the risk, while Lu Liang wanted to learn more about the industry through investing in interactive entertainment. The two talked about speculation and felt that they had met too late.

In just a few words, the intention of cooperation was finalized.

Lu Liang invested 300 million yuan and held 15% of the shares, becoming the second largest shareholder of Panda Interactive Entertainment after Wang Xiaocong.

Later, we went to Panda headquarters to sign the contract agreement.

"Lu Liang, do you have any plans for tonight?"

While the staff was preparing the contract, Wang Xiaocong raised his eyebrows and smiled a smile that every man understands.

He is a frequent visitor to major nightclubs in Shanghai, and spends at least four nights out of seven in the week.

Panda Interactive Entertainment has gained a powerful shareholder, and according to convention, it should be celebrated.

"Next time, I have something else to do later."

Lu Liang wholly owns Mengmengda Studio, and Li Manli only has a share of the profits but no shares.

I suddenly changed her live streaming platform and had to say hello to her first.

"It's okay, you can come over after you're done."

Wang Xiaocong urged his invitation and kept tempting Lu Liang, saying that the party tonight would be very exciting.

Lu Liang smiled bitterly, unable to refuse the kindness: "We'll talk about it when the time comes."

In the evening, after leaving Panda Interactive Entertainment, he asked Chen Jinchun to take a taxi back and drove to the villa area in the western suburbs.

The entire area is filled with independent villas with courtyards, but most of them have been turned into studios for e-commerce, live streaming or new media.

These industries all adopt light asset models, and the integration of office and housing can also reduce costs and increase employee cohesion.

It was Lu Liang’s first time here. He almost got lost while driving in the community, but finally found the location of No. 116.

It is a three-and-a-half-story Western-style building with a garage next to the courtyard where a bright red Porsche 718 is parked.

Li Manli wore a black and white Lolita dress and held a parasol, looking like a medieval aristocrat.

Since she set up the studio and equipped it with a professional team, the quality of her videos has been greatly improved. They can be roughly divided into two categories: daily life and cooking demonstrations.

Now it seems like I’m shooting a daily vlog, but it’s mostly acting, after all, no normal person would dress like this.

"Brother Liang, you finally came to see me."

When she saw Lu Liang, Li Manli excitedly threw away her umbrella, put her arms around Lu Liang's neck, and hung her whole body on him.

"Can you please not be so rough? After all, you are the general manager now." Lu Liang looked helpless and had to support Li Manli's hips with his hands.

"I don't care. You've been treating me like a nobody and haven't come to see me for a long time."

Li Manli glanced at the assistant and cameraman, and asked them to go back to the house and not disturb their alone time.

A pair of slender beautiful legs, swinging in the air, tell of the inner joy of the owner of the beautiful legs.

"I just came to see you after I finished my work."

Lu Liang smiled, put Li Manli down, and the two went for a walk in the park, during which he talked about changing the platform for her.

“I’ve heard of Panda, but I’m not very good at playing games and have always been hovering around the silver level.” Li Manli said bitterly.

"Just get by. As long as you meet the 60 hours of live streaming per month, B station will not live stream anymore, but you can continue to post videos to expand your influence."

Lu Liang added: "After deducting the 600% commission and personal tax from the 50 million yuan signing fee for three years, you will have about 240 million yuan."

"So much?" Li Manli's eyes widened. She had never dared to imagine that she could earn so much money before.

"Is it a lot? On average, 80 yuan a year, only yuan a month, which is not even enough to pay the rent."

Lu Liang thought of the house he lived in. The monthly rent, utilities and property costs added up to more than 80,000 yuan.

He could afford to buy it now, but it would drain all his cash flow, so he never felt it was necessary.

Li Manli couldn't help but mutter, "How can this be the same? Who asked you to live in such a big house by yourself?"

If she can earn 800,000 yuan a year, she can build a new house for her parents.

"Don't worry, you will earn more and more in the future."

A smile appeared on Lu Liang's face. Li Manli had a noisy personality, and he thought she had always been so heartless.
