Entertainment 2000: Supporting female stars will bring you a hundredfold return

Chapter 53 Investing in Penguins (Please read and collect)

After recording "Dongfeng Po", the last recording is "Grade 3 Class 2"

After Tang Wenlu finished recording, all the rest of the work was done by Zhang Yadong.

"Everyone, do you have any suggestions?" Tang Wen asked modestly.

The singers and musicians here, no matter what they are like in life, are still very pure about music.

If you think about it carefully, it seems that no one can come up with anything.

First, the song is really great.

Secondly, Zhang Yadong hasn’t finished the production yet.

Only Liu Huan said with concern: "Xiao Tang, your singing skills are very good for your age, but compared to your creative ability, it is far behind."

Teacher Sanbao also nodded.

The princess also felt that Tang Wen’s singing skills were average.

But she is the kind of person who is chased by God and fed by God.

I haven't practiced it before, so it's hard for me to say anything about others.

Zhang Yadong also nodded.

He has worked with many singers, and Tang Wen's singing skills can only be considered average.

“If you can improve your singing skills to a higher level, you will be infinitely close to perfection.

You can take out your album and compete head-on with anyone!
Including Sister Fei."

Zhang Yadong ignored the fact that the princess was present.

The princess was unhappy: "Zhang Yadong, you really have forgotten the old one when you have a new one! With the quality of Tang Wen's album, why should I go head-to-head with him?"

"Hahaha……"

Singing skills, Tang·Time management master·Wen, there is no time to practice.

He smiled and said, "I have indeed never practiced my singing skills. I am 19 years old this year and have grown a lot in the past six months. I am still growing and my voice may not have completely stabilized yet."

Liu Huan opened his mouth, not knowing how to respond.

Zhang Yadong pursed her lips and said nothing.

The room was silent, and the same words echoed in everyone's mind:

19. 19. He is only 19 this year!

Why do we require him to have perfect singing skills?
So many musicians gathered together.

Eating and drinking are indispensable.

The young Pu Shu did not start to take care of his health, and Zhang Yadong did not refuse alcohol.

The princess doesn't even protect her voice. She smokes, drinks, stays up late playing cards, and there's nothing she won't do.

Liu Huan, the big brother of the music industry, loves wine like his life.

It was later revealed that he was in poor health due to years of alcoholism.

The drinking contest lasted until the early morning, and Tang Wen managed to hold on to the end thanks to his strong body.

But sober people need to clean up the mess.

He, together with the sober Teacher Sanbao and the sober Zhang Yadong, separately settled the people.

Before parting, Tang Wen quietly pulled Zhang Yadong aside:
"Next time you record songs, there should be fewer people in the studio."

"What? Are you embarrassed by all the big names praising you?"

"No," Tang Wen sighed silently, "I'm mainly afraid that they will get too excited."

I’m mainly afraid of meeting the original singer again and hearing him praising his writing skills crazily.

That feeling is so complicated.

When Tang Wen returned to the gate of the community, the sky was already turning pale.

He went to a nearby mutton soup restaurant, waited in line for the freshly-baked sesame cakes, ordered a bowl of mutton soup with two large spoonfuls of mutton oil and chili, and ate it while it was warm.

The slight discomfort after drinking was instantly digested by the noodles and hot soup.

After eating, the young body becomes energetic.

Thinking that he would fly to America tomorrow, he went back to the company.

"Chairman, Venus Investment Company and Mars Media Company have been registered.

We are sending people to contact Penguin and JD.com that you mentioned.

They are also interested in accepting our investment.

But where does the money for investment come from? "

Zhang Ran didn't know Tang Wen's worth.

But he knew that this kind of investment could easily cost tens of millions.

"I will transfer 20 million to the account and invest in Penguin first."

The system's cashback funds cannot be left unused.

The box office share of "Comet" is about to arrive, which is about 1100 million, enough to invest in two more TV series.

After Sun Chao built the website, the number of typists increased and the number of posts increased to 5,000.

The system will give more cash back every day!

In addition, there are cashbacks from investing in TV dramas and promoting female stars.

The future cash flow will be absolutely exaggerated.

And now is the last chance to invest in Penguin.

In 01, the American Internet bubble burst, and domestic Internet companies were also affected.

The most direct impact is that investment institutions are hesitant.

In the second half of this year, Mobile Dream Network was born.

Penguin seized the opportunity and gradually made a profit. In other words, if you invest at the beginning of the year, you will see a return at the end of the year.

"Invest in Penguin quickly! If you don't have enough money, I authorize you to mortgage the copyright, mortgage the company, and apply for a loan."

"Is this a step too big?" Zhang Ran was very hesitant.

'Opportunity of a lifetime'

Wait until mid-year.

South Africa's MIH will acquire more than 3400% of Penguin's shares for US$46 million.

If my prediction is correct, MIH should be negotiating with Penguin now.

It is not a good thing for Penguin if so many shares are taken away by one company.

If you get involved at this time, the probability of being able to invest is very high.

At noon, Tang Wen was about to go home to pack his luggage and prepare to go to Hollywood.

"Mr. Tang, wait a moment." Zhang Ran came over breathlessly.

"what's up?"

"What a coincidence, Mr. Penguin Ma is in Beijing right now and wants to see you."

"Now?"

"I have an appointment at three o'clock." Zhang Ran took a breath and said, "Should we get ready?"

"Well", I need to prepare.

3pm.

In a courtyard teahouse in Beijing.

Yu Feihong's white clothes were as white as snow, her eyebrows and eyes were as picturesque as a fairy who had descended to earth.

Gao Yuanyuan's blue dress was as white as water, and her cheeks were delicate and clear, like a fairy descending to earth.

Penguin CEO Ma and two vice presidents arrived as scheduled.

As I walked in, I saw two beauties making tea. I paused and felt a sense of amazement.

They come from a technical background and are typical science and engineering men.

I am far from being a wealthy man now, so where have I ever seen such a scene?

What's more, the two women are stars.

Yu Feihong handed the tea to a vice president with her bare hands and smiled slightly. The tea spilled a little and scalded his fingertips, turning them red.

Mr. Ma suddenly felt something was wrong. The negotiations hadn't even started yet, but he was already completely at a disadvantage...

Fortunately, the conditions offered by Tang Wen were good, and the share price was higher than that of MIH.

"How much does Mr. Tang want?"

"12%"

The three of them looked at each other, and Mr. Ma said, "This is very different from what you said before."

Tang Wen's appetite has indeed increased.

He planned to withdraw the four or five million US dollars deposited overseas for investment.

"Investing is investing in people. When I met the three of you today, I realized that I was too conservative before!"

Mr. Ma has heard this kind of talk many times, so he was not moved at all: "12%, how much is the bid?"

"$700 million."

The price is slightly lower than MIH's final transaction price.

But the two sides are in talks.

Judging from the current situation, Tang Wen’s bid is much higher than MIH’s.

The three of them couldn't help but be tempted. By bringing in Tang Wen as a competitor, they could raise their offer to MIH.

Both sides continued to test each other.

Tang Wen plays a combination card:
"Accept my investment, and you can embed QQ application scenarios into movies and TV series in the future!

All the artists under my management can promote for Penguin, you can pick the ones.

I unconditionally support the decisions made by the three members of the board of directors.”

The three of them were excited. Mr. Ma thought for a moment and said, "It should be written into the contract."

"no problem."

After the preliminary negotiations were completed, Tang Wen acquired 750% of Penguin's shares for US$12 million.

It became the third largest shareholder.

Mr. Ma and his colleagues were even happier because Tang Wen raised Penguin's valuation to US$6250 million.

You know, just last year, Penguin's valuation was only 500 million US dollars.

The dinner was a great success for both the guests and the hosts.

The next day, Tang Wen took Yu Feihong and the bosses from China Film Group and Shanghai Film Group to fly to America.

Not to mention the polite greetings after meeting.

Evening, conference room at Four Seasons Hotel.

In front of everyone, Tang Wen gave New Line partner Robert a publicity plan.

Promotional plan for the North American version of the movie "Comet".

"The movie hasn't even been shot yet, but the publicity is too exaggerated."

"Not early, not early at all."

"Comet" is too obscure for Americans who have received happiness education, and it will not make much money at the box office without some manipulation.
