The Rich Man's Life Begins with a Comeback

Chapter 179 Xingchuan International Respects Every Girl with a Dream! (4k)

"Chairman Chu, I have long heard of Xingchuan International's warm hospitality."

"Having seen it today, I can confirm that its reputation is indeed well-deserved."

With a slight smile, Gu Heng pulled his right hand out from inside his cashmere coat and clasped it tightly with Chu Zhengxiong's. He appeared nonchalant and frank, but anyone could hear the playful undertone in his words.

Warm and hospitable?

Clearly, these four words should be in quotation marks.

Chu Zhengxiong understood Gu Heng's implied meaning, and a hint of embarrassment flashed in his eyes.

Although this was not his original intention, and he did not intend to give Gu Heng a hard time at their first meeting, Chu Zhengnan's unauthorized actions led to the situation developing in this way.

Now, for Chu Zhengxiong...

Even if your crotch is covered in yellow mud, it's still considered poop.

The key issue is that Chu Zhengxiong has no way to explain himself. If he really pushes all the blame onto Chu Zhengnan, not to mention whether Gu Heng will believe him, even if Gu Heng does believe what he says, Gu Heng will only despise him even more.

How can a chairman of the board not even be able to manage his subordinates?
Saying it out loud will only invite more ridicule.

"Chairman Gu, it's freezing cold outside."

Since there was no way to explain, Chu Zhengxiong simply decided not to. He warmly greeted Gu Heng, saying, "Please come inside."

"it is good."

Gu Heng nodded slightly and politely gestured for Chu Zhengxiong to follow. The two walked side by side into the Xingchuan International headquarters building, followed closely by Jiang Ruan, Yang Wenjie, Xu Ke, Zhong Hua, and others.

Under these circumstances, the Xingchuan International group, who had originally followed Chu Zhengnan to "welcome" Gu Heng, subconsciously retreated to both sides, leaving a sufficiently open path in the middle.

In the elevator lobby, the four elevators on the right side were already empty, and each elevator entrance was staffed by Xingchuan International personnel to ensure that Gu Heng and his group could use them as soon as they arrived.

Surrounded by a large entourage, Gu Heng and Chu Zhengxiong took the elevator to the 12th floor, the top floor of the Xingchuan International headquarters building.

"Chairman Gu, please..."

Chu Zhengxiong led Gu Heng into a conference hall, which appeared to be the conference hall used by Xingchuan International for its group meetings, and could easily accommodate hundreds of people.

Chu Zhengxiong's original plan was to have Chu Zhengnan and the others wait here, but unexpectedly, Chu Zhengnan took it upon himself to bring everyone downstairs, making the conference hall look deserted now.

"Mr. Xu, Attorney Yang, let's all sit on the right side."

As Gu Heng walked forward, he casually instructed, "Leave the left side for Chairman Chu and the others."

"Ok."

Yang Wenjie and Xu Ke responded at the same time.

"Oh……"

"I forgot to introduce him to Chairman Chu."

Gu Heng introduced them to Chu Zhengxiong: "These two are Xu Ke, a senior partner at Deloitte China, and Yang Wenjie, a senior partner at Juncheng Law Firm. They will be responsible for the legal review and financial audit of Xingchuan International for the foreseeable future."

"Mr. Xu, Attorney Yang, hello."

"If you need anything in your work in the future, just contact me anytime."

Chu Zhengxiong started his business through unconventional means, stumbling and struggling to get to where he is today. Fundraising was a new thing for him, and he had never seen such a professional team and setup before.

Logically speaking, before leaving Beichun, Gu Heng was not even as good as Chu Zhengxiong. However, after this trip to Zhonghai, Gu Heng has achieved a complete transformation.

The current Gu Heng is clearly an advanced version 3.0.

Xingchuan International is far too insignificant compared to Junyao Group.

Chu Zhengxiong and Wang Junjin are completely incomparable; their wealth and social status are worlds apart.

If the acquisition of Ruyi Airlines' shares was difficult (difficult), then the acquisition of Xingchuan International's shares was at most beginner level.

Under these circumstances, Gu Heng, who already had complete experience in acquiring shares of Ruyi Airlines, was naturally very adept at acquiring shares of Xingchuan International.

The group entered the conference hall one by one. After Juncheng Lawyer and Deloitte Accountant had all entered the conference hall, Chu Zhengnan and others from Xingchuan International also walked in from outside.

After both sides were seated, they quickly began discussing business.

Even the legal and financial departments of Junyao Group, with a market value of tens of billions, struggled to cope with the highly professional teams of Juncheng and Deloitte, let alone Xingchuan International's legal and financial departments.

After they met twice, basically whatever Gu Heng said went.

His eyes were vacant, and his mind was blank.

of course……

Gu Heng's team did not deliberately bully Xingchuan International by virtue of its highly professional team. They fought for the rights they deserved and did not meddle in the rights they should not have.

At the negotiating table, Chu Zhengxiong became inexplicably silent.

How can I describe that feeling?
It was like guerrillas encountering a regular army.

The two sides are not on the same level at all.

"Chairman Chu, in my opinion, we should let them handle these legal matters themselves. Why don't we change the venue and discuss the future of Xingchuan International?"

Seeing Chu Zhengxiong's silence, Gu Heng knew that he had temporarily subdued Chu Zhengxiong, the wolf king, by using the preemptive strike tactic. However, this alone was far from enough to completely subdue Chu Zhengxiong and prevent him from having any disloyal thoughts in the future.

To instill a sense of awe in a wolf, you can't just rely on its perceived power; you have to make it truly feel pain.

"Okay."

"Right on my mind."

Chu Zhengxiong's spirits lifted; Gu Heng's suggestion was exactly what he wanted to hear.

Gu Heng smiled and asked, "Then, Chairman Chu, how about we find a place?"

"it is good."

Chu Zhengxiong responded.

Afterwards, he, along with Xingchuan International President Zhou Gang, and Gu Heng, along with Jiang Ruan, Zhong Hua, and Xiang Ling Shuang, got up and left the conference hall, heading to the chairman's office.

"Chairman Chu's office is very impressive."

Gu Heng walked into Chu Zhengxiong's office, looked around, and then smiled at Chu Zhengxiong.

"Mr. Gu, please make yourself at home."

"I'll have someone brew a pot of tea and bring it over." Chu Zhengxiong was very enthusiastic, and Gu Heng didn't stand on ceremony with Chu Zhengxiong either. He led Jiang Ruan to sit down on the sofa, while Zhong Hua and Xiang Ling Shuang stood behind Gu Heng and Jiang Ruan with their hands behind their backs, exuding an aloofness that kept strangers at bay.

"Ruan Ruan, give Chairman Chu and President Zhou an eggplant."

Gu Heng leaned back on the sofa, his expression calm and composed. He raised his hand and gently patted Jiang Ruan's beautiful back, gesturing to her.

"it is good."

Jiang Ruan responded softly, then turned around and glanced at Xiang Ling Shuang. The other party immediately understood and handed Jiang Ruan the black portable cigar case that she had been carrying.

The cigar box is opened, and the first layer contains cigars, cigar tongs, and a lighter, while the lower layer contains an enamel-painted cigar jar from Houshan Kiln.

After half a month of training and practice, Jiang Ruan is now much more professional than those eggplant chefs, and has long since reached the point of being skilled through practice.

Chu Zhengxiong and Zhou Gang watched this scene silently. Despite their wealth, they often smoked cigars, but they were never as particular as Gu Heng.

Compared to Gu Heng, they felt like dirt leopards.

"Chairman Chu, I have carefully reviewed Xingchuan International's letter of intent for financing. To put it simply, your future development plan for Xingchuan International can be summarized in three directions: transformation, upgrading, and expansion. Is my summary correct?"

Gu Heng took the cigar from Jiang Ruan's hand, took a light puff, and then, without beating around the bush with Chu Zhengxiong, went straight to the point.

"no problem."

"Chairman Gu's summary is very accurate and comprehensive."

Chu Zhengxiong was a decisive person and liked Gu Heng's straightforward personality: "Thank you, Miss Jiang."

Jiang Ruan handed over a cigar at the right moment. Chu Zhengxiong glanced at the wrapper and knew that the cigar Gu Heng sent was a top-quality Cohiba.

"In that case, let's talk about the transformation first."

Gu Heng took out Xingchuan International's financing intention document from the briefcase Zhong Hua was carrying for him, and said while reading it: "Regarding the direction of transformation, you plan to establish an MCN agency belonging to Xingchuan International, and then focus on the emerging track of group broadcasting in the live streaming field, right?"

"Yes."

"Because all of our Xingchuan International's industries are real businesses, both the cost of renting premises and the cost of human resources are increasing day by day. Therefore, we plan to shift our next development goal to online, and develop some new industries for the group that are low-cost but can easily generate high returns."

Chu Zhengxiong nodded and answered truthfully: "As for why we set our sights on the emerging track of group broadcasting in the live streaming field, it is because the resources that our group currently possesses are very suitable for entering this emerging track. Moreover, by choosing this emerging track, we can further open up career advancement channels for employees within the group."

"Oh?"

What do you mean by that?

Gu Heng raised an eyebrow, put down the letter of intent for financing, and pressed Chu Zhengxiong for an answer.

The two advantages that Chu Zhengxiong just mentioned were not reflected in the letter of intent for financing. They only wrote about the future prospects and profit potential of the group broadcasting track in the letter of intent for financing.

"Cough cough..."

"Chairman Gu, our group has four music business meeting centers under its umbrella."

Zhou Gang coughed twice, taking over the conversation from Chu Zhengxiong at the opportune moment: "Currently, the total number of young women working in our group's four music business meeting centers should easily exceed one thousand."

"These young girls are usually between 18 and 30 years old, most of whom are born in the 00s. Our group's Perkin Club and Xiyue Club are both high-end and mid-to-high-end. The young girls who can work here, whose appearance fee is over a thousand yuan, are all very good-looking and have great figures."

"If they are like this offline, then online, under various lighting and with the powerful beauty filters available now, they can basically meet the standard of female internet celebrities in terms of appearance."

"These are just ordinary girls in shows that cost a thousand yuan. If it were the young girls in the Perkin Club, they could earn more than two thousand yuan per show. Their looks and figures are already top-notch offline. Online, they would definitely be top beauties."

"They are either students from art schools or former models. They all have excellent singing and dancing skills. With a little training, they can be put in front of the camera. We have at least two or three hundred girls like them."

Zhou Gang was initially somewhat tactful, but as he spoke, he opened up and eventually became quite talkative.

"Chairman Gu, Xingchuan International respects every girl with a dream!"

“From Tianmu Hot Spring to Xiyue Club, and from Xiyue Club to Perkin Club, we can provide a suitable place for each girl, depending on her level of tolerance.”

"In the future, once Xingchuan Entertainment is established, we can send them to a higher level, so that every girl who is willing to fight for her dreams can find her own platform at Xingchuan International."

At this moment, Gu Heng was truly dumbfounded.

Who came up with this idea?

He's a fucking genius!

Although the approach is somewhat unorthodox and the thinking is somewhat unusual, it is indeed highly practical.

Take those fruit platter girls for example. They can charm men offline with their young and beautiful faces and sexy figures, making them linger in brothels. How much more so online?

With a little lighting and a filter, she's a total internet beauty.

They can sing and dance.

She can be both sexy and alluring.

He can make money online and appease his superiors offline.

As for whether young girls are willing to step out of their comfort zone and develop online, if it's an MCN agency run by Xingchuan International, many girls would probably be willing to give it a try.

Even the most unambitious person has dreams, especially a young girl who is willing to lower herself to work in the fruit platter industry. She has an innate and strong yearning for the glamorous career of an internet celebrity.

Even if they fail, they won't suffer any loss. At worst, they can go back to their original units and do what they used to do.

It's worth noting that Xingchuan International's four music business meeting centers have a constant stream of new members joining every day, and its high-end venue, Perkin Club, has intricate connections with many art colleges.

In addition, Xingchuan International originally had its own artist management department, which was full of Xingchuan International's signed singers, many of whom were top performers in music talent shows.

They regularly tour the country in the 12 livehouse brands under Xingchuan International. If you include the band members, the total number of people is about two hundred.

In this context, Xingchuan International has mature management experience in artist management, so Chu Zhengxiong's words just now were not just him trying to flatter himself. Xingchuan International currently possesses very rich resources.

"Chairman Gu, actually, regarding the group broadcasting project..."

“We started preparing two months ago. We selected a group of clean, hardworking and ambitious young female college students from various art colleges in Beichun and are currently providing them with professional dance training.”

After seeing that Gu Heng showed some interest, Zhou Gang immediately pressed on and continued his report to Gu Heng.

"They will serve as the vanguard for Xingchuan International's foray into the online live streaming field and its push into the emerging track of group broadcasting. We will continue to invest a lot of resources in them in the future, striving to make them an instant hit on the day of their first broadcast."

"Once we have successfully cultivated a live-streaming team, we can then replicate this experience in batches, activate our pool of human resources, and adopt a broad-based approach to ultimately achieve a qualitative leap from quantitative change..."

From this day forward, the era of Chu Zhengxiong's absolute authority over Xingchuan International is over. From now on, all major projects involving the group's future development will require Gu Heng's approval.

Despite the impressive promises they made in their letter of intent and the fact that they successfully secured 400 million yuan in cash from Gu Heng, implementing those promises and spending the money smoothly will be no easy task.

Gu Heng is both an opportunity and a hindrance to the future development of Xingchuan International...
