The sun was shining outside the window, and the office was very quiet. Two men sat opposite each other. They looked at each other and thought about each other. Business is done with people, so the most important thing is people. [Thanks for supporting the novel]

Xu Rencheng was silent for a while. He looked at the cup of tea he was brewing in front of him and thought for a long time. He held the small teacup with one hand and didn't take a sip when it was cold.

He suddenly said slowly: "70.00% of the high-end Chinese tea in the Korean market are shoddy, and the unit price is more than 30 won. Koreans don't understand tea, but they like to drink tea. No country in the world can compare with China, so they are all taken advantage of.”

Lin Weiran smiled and said, "President Xu is drinking good tea."

Xu Rencheng raised his eyes and asked, "Do you know tea?"

Lin Weiran shook his head and said, "I don't understand, but I don't think President Xu will be willing to be taken advantage of."

Seo In Sung asked, "Then what kind of tea do you think 'idolworld' is like?"

"Pu'er."

"why?"

"Because it is increasing in value, not because it is good tea itself, but because someone is making it."

Xu Rencheng paused for a moment, and then said: "There are good and bad things in someone's operation. People have a characteristic, that is, the ones that come to your door are all inferior products, and only the ones you ask for are the best ones."

Lin Weiran said: "President Xu once came to ask for it, but he didn't get it, so this time I sent it to my door."

Xu Rencheng stared at Lin Weiran earnestly, with piercing eyes, and after a while, he put down his teacup, and said straight to the point: "Let's stop probing, according to my information, Shinhan and Chaoya have no direct jurisdictional relationship, that is to say The withdrawal of funds from Chasya Investment has no impact on Shinhan at all, because there is 'idolworld'.

Now you come to me and tell me you want to sell such a project, why?To help Chaoya make up for the shortfall?The 400 billion on paper is just the beginning. Once the chain reaction starts to unfold, even if it invests 3000 billion in Chayora, it will not be able to survive. With the little money from selling 'idolworld', it will be a drop in the bucket. "

Lin Weiran said flatly: "There is an idiom in China called abandoning the car to protect the handsome, which is about this kind of situation. I can only say that President Xu has not investigated enough, especially in the relationship between Shinhan and Chaoya. If you can save it, you can't. Neither I nor I can say for sure, and it’s not up to us.”

"The bottom line price will be reduced by another 30.00%." ​​Xu Rencheng pondered for a moment before throwing out the conditions.

"The reason why the bottom line price is the bottom line is because you can't take another step back." Lin Weiran stood still.

Xu Rencheng smiled and said: "You need this money, but it is my money now. Unlisted assets have never had a clear status. You bought a house for [-] million, and when you need money to sell it, you have to sell it for [-] million." Billion?"

Lin Weiran said: "The location of this house is good, and there are many people who want it, and I know someone who needs it, because it can be turned into a building. Of course, if this person insists on bargaining, then I can only sell it publicly. I believe this Not difficult."

Xu Rencheng pondered for a moment, picked up the teacup that he had caught up with and drank it in small sips.Lin Weiran looked normal, neither arrogant nor impetuous, as if he was selling something that had nothing to do with him.

"The acquisition process will take more than half a month."

"I suppose it should be."

With the final word, the two looked at each other and smiled, and the confrontation again was still half-hearted.

Xu Rencheng smiled and said, "Let Lin make some tea, my tea is definitely not fake."

"It doesn't matter whether it's true or not, because I don't know how to drink tea, so I can only taste the bitter taste." Lin Weiran picked up the teacup while talking, looked at it carefully for a while, and was slightly lost in thought.

Xu Rencheng can probably feel Lin Weiran's emotions, any producer's work is not dead to them.It will be sad to have a pet for several years and die, not to mention these things that are enough to be called hard work.

He suggested: "In January next year, 'idolworld' and 'Virtual Idol' will be separated from Samsung Ads and form another subsidiary company. The agency means that it can be listed as a subsidiary company. Why don't Lim Productions come to me. Although Samsung Advertising is only an insignificant small department in the Samsung Group, its development prospects are not comparable to places like Shinhan.”

Lin Weiran said: "Thank you, I think I will leave Shinhan after this matter is over, but I don't plan to work in the company anymore. [Thanks for supporting the novel]"

"why?"

"Doing for others is worse than doing for yourself."

"Without that capital and platform, it's better to do it for others than to do it for yourself."

Lin Weiran remained silent.

Only then did Xu Rencheng come to his senses. He chuckled twice, stood up and stretched out his hand, and said with a smile, "I hope that Producer Lin and I will have a chance to cooperate."

"Well, I hope so too."

The two shook hands, and the matter came to an end.Tens of billions of voices say that the final decision is only an intention, and it is necessary to wait for a period of time if the transaction is really successful.Turning around and walking to the door, Lin Weiran, who hadn't left yet, turned around and asked suddenly, "I don't know what President Xu thinks about 'virtual idol'?"

Seo In Sung said, "'Virtual Idol'? This game is just a side product of 'idolworld'. Last time, the 'encounter' system proposed by Lim Productions and Mr. Lee has been officially launched. So far, the number of registered users of 'idolworld' has exceeded It has reached 300 million, and the momentum is good... This kind of side product that has attracted attention on the eve of the eve should no longer require Lin Zuo to bother?"

Lin Weiran lowered his head and smiled slightly. He was right. The difference between a leader and a follower lies in innovation.Others stood on his achievements, but did not see what he saw.Raising his head, Lin Weiran reminded: "President Xu will check the email later, it's some of my ideas and plans for 'virtual idols'. Of course, if Director Li Xu has his own plans, you don't have to worry about it."

Seeing Lin Weiran go out, Xu Rencheng began to be puzzled again. After thinking for a while, Xu Rencheng suddenly thought of something and laughed lightly, with a strong self-mockery in his smile.

In order to get a good price, he had to pretend not to care. Xu Rencheng has also come from a producer step by step to today. Of course he knows what the work means to the producer. The money printing machine in the eyes of outsiders is like their child, whether it is It's not that they stand behind and hope that these children can go well all the way.

Going downstairs to the parking lot, a white Hyundai sedan is parked in the parking space he snatched, which is in stark contrast to the several imported cars next to it.Walking to the car door, Lin Weiran glanced back in the direction of the elevator, then opened the door and got in the car.

Are you reluctant?

of course.

This is his best work since he entered this circle, maybe there will be no existence that can surpass it in the future.

One of the costs of breaking through that barrier or that cage is to give up, even if it is something he doesn't want to give up.

July passed, and in the middle of August, a small ceremony was held in a small commercial two-story building in Sinsa-dong.Most of the people present were unfamiliar faces, which could not attract passers-by to stop and watch, but the flower baskets placed on both sides of the main entrance were full of familiar names.

Yoo Jae-suk, Lee Hyori, Kim Soo-ro, Kang Dae-sung, Lee Chun-hee, Park Ye-jin, Yoon Jong-shin, 'The Birth of a Family' received good ratings, so in addition to the flower baskets they sent alone, they also let loose with the 'Birth of a Family' production team.Jun Ji Hyun did not forget about Lin Weiran just because he disappeared at those gatherings, SM was not stingy, not only Kim Yeon Ping personally attended, but also brought greetings from Lee Soo Man and Kim Young Min. JYP even sent a director to the scene in person, even bringing Min Xianyi along.

The company is not big, the decoration has not yet been carried out, and the appearance looks a bit dilapidated, but it shows the connections that ordinary production companies do not have.Yin Sang-hyun, Shen Jae-hee, and Li Ren-quan, the connections and influence of the three in the circle can be seen from the flower baskets sent by those managers. Although there are no familiar names on these flower baskets, there are more than a dozen Korean people behind these managers. A-level film and television star.

Under the dilapidated small building, in the eyes of discerning people, it is difficult to hide the starlight.

The ceremony went smoothly, and it's a good thing that there weren't too many celebrities present. At least Han Weiyi was very relaxed. After removing her bling bling, she became more and more like a producer, and her speech and behavior were quite capable.

Lin Weiran, who did not appear as the protagonist, watched the whole process. Except for a few people, most of them didn't know that there was another person in the company besides Han Weiyi. He just stood aside and watched with a faint smile, like someone who came in to eat and drink.

"Do you know who is the most unlucky person in this situation?"

Hearing Han Weiyi's voice, Lin Weiran turned around and asked, "What is it like?"

Han Weiyi said harshly: "Like you, it's the most unlucky to hide by yourself. Everyone is here for this occasion, so why come here if you want to be alone?"

Lin Weiran chuckled lightly, which in Han Weiyi's eyes was just a smirk.If it weren't for this guy's unlucky luck, I wouldn't have chosen to cooperate with him.

'The Birth of a Family' had an audience rating of 17.00% for the first broadcast, and it has been approaching the 20.00% mark since then. As advertised, the ratings of a TV drama without a script are equivalent to a mini-series.

'You Are My Destiny' not to mention, the audience rating is close to 30.00%, it has been dubbed by the media as a 'National riri drama', and the protagonist 'Sebi' played by Lim Yoona is even more famous in Korea.

Finish these two programs safely?No, Han Weiyi has great ambitions in the production industry.

"Ever heard of 'We got married'?"

"Celebrity love show? Now it seems to be Huang Jingyin and a male celebrity, whose name I don't know well."

"Variety shows with single-digit ratings will be cut unconditionally, but this kind of celebrity love show is different, very innovative, and has great potential for development. Its production company has been unable to afford the subsequent production costs, so this The release rights of the film are packaged and sold. Because the asking price is not low, no one is interested at present."

Lin Weiran sharply said, "Do you want it?"

Han Weiyi nodded and said, "Yes, and I already have a plan."

Lin Weiran nodded and said, "Okay."

Han Weiyi frowned and said, "Aren't you going to listen to my plan?"

Lin Weiran said with a smile: "Plans never change fast, move towards the direction you see, grasp what you can control, and don't think about what you can't control."

Han Weiyi was stunned for a moment, then laughed helplessly, and sighed, "You really have changed a lot."

Lin Weiran smiled and said, "It's not that I've changed, it's just that I am like this."

The phone rang, it was a text message, Lin Weiran slowly restrained his smile after reading the content.

Han Weiyi asked, "Who is it?"

"Did I tell you that this is an arena for me who just arrived in Seoul?"

Han Weiyi nodded.

Lin Weiran raised his mobile phone and said with a complicated expression: "This is one of the audience sitting on the sidelines."
