Hexagonal God

Chapter 355: Some people on the board are dissatisfied with Su Mo
In the afternoon, Su Mo left the capital and took a plane to Jinhua to take over his own film and television base.

Yang Zi and the others have already notified the staff there to stop work and are waiting for Su Mo to take over.

After a two-hour flight, the plane landed in Jinhua.

The person who came to pick him up was Lao Wu, a shareholder of Hengdian Group. After all, Su Mo now holds 12% of the shares of the film and television city and is the group's undisputed major shareholder.

There are seven attractions in the film and television city, two of which are controlled by the chairman, who holds a 33% stake.

The other five attractions are each controlled by an actual controlling shareholder. If a single person controls an attraction, he or she would hold approximately 10%-18% of the shares.

If it was like the few people before Yang Zi, with three people controlling a tourist attraction, each person would only account for about 4%.

This is Hengdian’s consistent model. Since they cannot afford to develop so many scenic spots on their own, they hand over some of the scenic spots to others for development, and then use the scenic spots as a stake.

Every developer can enjoy priority management rights, which can be regarded as a kind of compensation.

For example, Su Mo has the right to manage the ancient city of Chang'an for three years. After the expiration of the management rights, if he does not want to continue to manage it, others will have the opportunity to take over. Otherwise, it will still be his.

Except for the two scenic spots owned by the chairman alone, of the remaining five scenic spots, only Su Mo's and another one owned by Lao Pan are independent legal entities, and the other three are jointly owned by many shareholders.

For example, Old Wu in front of us is one of the many shareholders of a tourist attraction. However, he holds 5% of the shares, which makes him a big shot among the small shareholders.

"Oh my God, Su Shen, when we heard that you became a shareholder of the group, we old guys were all excited! Being able to sit with the nationally renowned Su Shen, I feel several years younger."

"Mr. Wu, you are too polite. Su Mo is young and inexperienced. I will need Mr. Wu's guidance and care in many things in the future."

"Hahaha! I dare not move that. Now that you are the third largest shareholder on the board, you should be the one who looks after me."

"Su Mo feels ashamed when you say that. Let's learn from each other."

There was a hint of sharpness in Su Mo's humility, which made Old Wu, who had originally looked down on him, immediately put away his contempt.

It seems that this young man has become famous all over the world at such a young age. He is really an extraordinary person.

No wonder Yang Zi and his men were defeated by him. They must be more careful when interacting with others in the future.

He invited Su Mo and a few others to get into his Rolls-Royce, and they headed to the hotel.

The project is there and you can't run away from it. It will be the same if you go there tomorrow.

Today the board of directors is welcoming Su Mo, so everyone must get to know each other first.

I have to say here that Hengdian Film and Television City is a subsidiary of Hengdian Group. The entire film and television city covers an area of ​​more than 50,000 acres and is the world's largest film and television shooting base.

The film and television city has seven completed projects under its jurisdiction, and the overall valuation of the entire film and television city is approximately 450 billion.

Hengdian Group has a market value of over 100 billion yuan, and the film and television city is just one of its four main projects.

But Su Mo felt that the film and television city was the most valuable project among them.

Because the investment in the entire film and television city cost more than 27 billion yuan, there was not much premium.

The seven completed projects are Ming and Qing Palaces, Along the River During the Qingming Festival, Hong Kong Street, Guangzhou Street, Qin Palace, Chang'an Ancient City and Dream Valley.

The chairman of Hengdian Film and Television City is surnamed Xu. He controls two tourist attractions, Along the River During the Qingming Festival and Guangzhou Street, and the film and television city holds a 33% stake.

The second largest shareholder is surnamed Pan, who controls the Ming and Qing Palaces and holds an 18% stake.

Now Su Mo is the third largest shareholder, controlling the ancient city of Chang'an and holding a 12% stake.

In addition, there are three people on Lao Wu's side who control Hong Kong Street and together hold 15% of the shares.

There are also four people headed by Lao Yao, who control the Qin Palace and hold a 12% stake.

The last one is the five people headed by Lao Jiang, who control Dream Valley and hold a 10% stake.

When these veterans in the shopping malls saw Su Mo, they did not have the same enthusiasm as many fans. At their age and status, they hardly chase stars.

Everyone also expressed a warm welcome to Su Mo's arrival.

Each of them has a smiling face, and their smiles look like Maitreya Buddha.

But Su Mo quietly checked the favorability level and found the opposite was true.

Chairman Lao Xu’s favorability towards me is actually 0.

The second largest shareholder, Lao Pan, has a favorable impression of himself of -30.

He was very enthusiastic towards Su Mo at the dinner table, acting like an elder and a little admiring, but he didn't expect that he actually hated him.

Not many of the remaining people like me either. It may be that they are naturally repulsed by young people like me, or there may be other reasons.

Su Mo recalled what Li Yunfeng's father had said to him when he was at Li Yunfeng's house.

There are problems with the two projects in Hengdian and they are under investigation.

One of the projects is Lao Pan’s Ming and Qing Palace.

Lao Pan’s problem mainly lies in gambling.

The Ming and Qing Palaces he owns are the most profitable projects of the entire group.

This place is a 1:1 replica of the Forbidden City in Beijing, even the Qianmen Gate and Tiananmen Square are reproduced, attracting a large number of film crews to shoot here every year. However, Lao Pan is a gambler and spends half a year in Macau.

It is difficult to calculate the exact amount of money lost, but at the most, he lost 200 million in one day. This matter is quite well-known in the circle.

His investment in the film and television city project was not entirely with his own funds, but also included a lot of bank loans.

Now his income is no longer enough to cover his expenses, and he has also owed a lot of foreign debts.

This old guy is not thinking in the right way and is only thinking about making a comeback. In fact, many people have already set their eyes on the Ming and Qing Palace project in his hands.

Someone tried to set him up at the gambling table, but the old guy had lost a lot and had become smarter. He would never play with people he didn't know.

If you want to play with him, you can, but it must be someone you know well, and he has to decide the location to prevent cheating.

I heard that he has been lucky recently and won a lot, but now he is feeling a little unlucky again.

Su Mo sat at the table and everyone started drinking.

Old Pan took the initiative to toast Su Mo: "Hey, Su Shen, that's what young people call you nowadays. I, Old Pan, have heard of your great reputation for a long time. You are famous for drinking in the capital and the Magic City. Let's not go home until we are drunk today."

Although this old man had a negative impression of him, he didn't say anything after all, so Su Mo wouldn't be rude.

"Okay, Mr. Pan, shall we have a drink?"

"You can't drink like that. You're the God of Wine. It's unfair to go one-on-one with a mere mortal like me, don't you think?"

Chairman Xu Tianhua smiled and said, "Old Pan is right. I think if we don't team up to drink with Su Shen, we might not be able to win."

Lao Jiang responded from the side: "Count me in."

"Count me in as well. I don't dare to drink with Su Shen alone, but it's not shameful to lose as a group." Old Wu followed suit.

The same thing happened to Old Yao, who picked up the wine bottle and was about to pour wine for Su Mo.

Su Mo looked at Old Pan with a smile: "Boss Pan, this is a bit too much. If you have something to say, just speak up. Don't mobilize the masses to attack me."

"Oh! That's all trivial. Let's drink first and talk about it later."

Su Mo didn't care about it immediately and went for a drink with a group of old guys.

One round means six cups, which is one pound and two ounces of white wine.

When Old Pan saw this, he was so excited that he wanted to pour more wine, but this time Su Mo refused to drink.

"Boss Pan, I'll give you face with the first drink. Any more would be impolite. And I have many ways to deal with impolite people. Boss Pan, do you want to try it?"

This is a very impolite statement.

This is how Su Mo treats people. If you respect me an inch, I will respect you a yard. If you get ahead of me, I will hit you back.

As expected, Old Pan was a little timid. After all, the video of Su Mo fighting and killing people in northern Myanmar was too shocking. This young man was definitely a ruthless character. If you treat him as a soft persimmon, you would be blind.

Old Pan didn't dare to urge him to drink anymore. He rolled his eyes and changed the subject.

"Su Shen, you bought these shares from Yang Zi and the others, right? To be honest, I put a lot of effort into the construction of this ancient city. Yang Zi also promised me that after the construction of Chang'an Ancient City, a friend's film crew would be the first to move in. He also promised me that he would give me 30% of the fees collected from the ancient city scenic area. Did Yang Zi tell you about this?"

"Really? Yang Zi didn't say anything. He just hoped I wouldn't prosecute him and put him in jail. He doesn't have the guts to bring up these trivial matters, and I wouldn't give him face if he did. Can you understand that?"

In one sentence, I removed myself. I don’t know about this matter, and my relationship with Yang Zi is not good. I don’t recognize what happened between you.

Lao Pan's expression changed, and his favorability dropped again, reaching -40.

Su Mo now knew where Lao Pan's hostility towards him came from. It turned out that he had some behind-the-scenes dealings with Yang Zi. Now that Yang Zi had sold the project, his wishful thinking had fallen through, and of course he was unhappy with him.

But Lao Pan was also able to keep his composure. Although his favorability rating kept decreasing, he did not show it at all.

"Su Shen is indeed a generous person who doesn't pay attention to these trivial matters. We will be working together often in the future. I wonder what Su Shen's hobbies are?"

Su Mo thought for a moment and said, "I don't have many hobbies. I just read, drive, play ball, run, drink, do business, and occasionally sing with friends."

"Do you like playing cards or something?" Old Pan asked.

Su Mo shook his head: "How can I gamble?"

Old Pan laughed heartily. "Su Shen, there's no one around right now, so don't hide it. You won 200 million yuan in a single race in Shanghai. It's all over the place, even in high-end circles."

Su Mo seemed a little embarrassed: "That's just occasionally, it's completely different from playing cards."

Old Pan was smug about exposing Su Mo: "Actually, they're essentially the same. At least playing cards is simple, not as dangerous as your racing. Why don't you come play with me when you have time?"

"I'm not playing well, so I'm afraid I can't have fun with Mr. Pan."

"It's okay, it's okay. We all have fun together. We're together for fun. A small sum of one or two hundred thousand is not something Su Shen would care about at all."

Hearing this, Su Mo exhaled: "Oh, that's okay, a few hundred million is not a big deal, but anything bigger is not okay, and it's not easy to find places to play. After all, gambling is prohibited in our country, and we have to abide by the law."

When Su Mo said this number, the smile on Old Pan's face became even more enthusiastic.
