The qualifications for the introduction of film and television works that Zhang Junping mentioned were what Zhang Junping had planned before.
After the joint efforts of Cao Xiangqian, his father-in-law, and the city leaders, as well as the sensible Zhang Junping (who funded CCTV's filming of "Dream of Red Mansions" and "Journey to the West"), it was finally approved.
In one year, BJ Art Company can introduce ten foreign film and television works.
However, Zhang Junping is not in a hurry to introduce foreign film and television works.
Now, the introduction is just to provide blood transfusion to those movie theaters. The money they make may not be enough to cover the cost.
Therefore, BJ Art Company is planning to acquire theaters and form a theater chain.
Fortunately, due to the mechanism for the introduction of film and television works in China, local governments do not pay much attention to cinemas.
Zhang Junping's requirements are not high. In each city, acquiring one cinema is enough for him to establish a cinema chain, which is larger than the combined total of all cinema chain companies in Hong Kong, Macau and Southeast Asia.
However, if you want to buy all the movie theaters in cities across the country, even if it is just one movie theater in one city, that is no small task.
Fortunately, Zhang Junping was not in a hurry.
"Simple, company interests, personal interests." Zhang Junping picked up two teacups, one small and one large, put them on the coffee table, and said to Ye Lihua with a smile.
"Then find a way to deal with them!" Zhang Junping said in a deep voice.
If we only buy one or two cinemas, the distribution company will naturally not make things difficult for us.
There are always constraints of one kind or another.
When we met today, Billy Mann finally unified his opinions and no one objected anymore.
"It depends on what they choose."
During this time, Billy Mann had been convincing them that they should either accept a capital injection or buy out the other party's shares.
Naturally, we can't let Givens put nails in it, as that would make him uncomfortable.
"There are no local opinions, it's just the film distribution company that has some opinions.
Every pioneer deserves respect.
"How to settle it?" Ye Lihua was stunned and asked.
"Mr. Givens, although this cafe is not big, it has a history of more than a hundred years. In those days, my grandfather loved to sit in the cafe, drink coffee, and watch the people rushing on the street.
Two billionaires were sitting across from each other in a humble cafe on the street.
I accept the capital injection!" Billy Mann finally spat out after pondering for a while.
"Okay, President David, we really need to have a good chat." Givens smiled.
In fact, accepting capital injection is a good way to retain Billy Mann Company and increase its value.
After bidding farewell to Billy Mann, Givens returned to the company.
"Understood!" Ye Lihua nodded.
David came to Givens today for negotiation.
Being able to meet for the third time basically means that Billy Mann is willing to accept the capital injection, but he just hopes to get more benefits.
Only when things are almost done will they come forward to finalize the market value, amount of capital injection, etc.
"President David, now you are the president of Taiyi Automobile Company, and you also stand in a position below one person and above ten thousand people.
Before, he was not the CEO of Taiyi Automobile Company, so he could not refuse Givens's intervention in Taiyi Automobile Company's personnel affairs and inserting nails into it.
After the second meeting, Billy Mann had agreed to the capital injection, but some brothers in the family were unwilling to accept the capital injection.
He is even actively inserting nails into it, and now David has officially taken over as the CEO of Taiyi Automobile Company, on the same level as Givens.
"I believe that in the near future, Mr. Billy will be proud of today's decision." Givens picked up the coffee and touched it with Billy.
"Old Mr. Billy is a man of great wisdom." Givens praised him sincerely.
Can’t everyone who opposes be villains and bad people?
Two flowers bloom.
Givens meets Billy Mann for coffee in Zurich.
"Okay! Mr. Givens, you are a successful lobbyist and you successfully convinced me.
"Yes, my grandfather was a great wise man. It's a pity that we younger generations are so incompetent that we can't hold on to the inheritance passed down by our ancestors." Billy Mann said with a bitter smile.
In fact, not only domestically, but also abroad.
I was also sighing in my heart, what is this?
After sending Ye Lihua away, Zhang Junping also smiled bitterly and shook his head, what is this?
However, Zhang Junping immediately felt relieved. This is normal. If you dig into people's roots, you can't let people have opinions?
If you want to develop, others also need to survive.
However, we are one family in each city, which is equivalent to digging up their roots, so we naturally have opinions." Ye Lihua explained with a wry smile.
This is how things are done in China.
Although cinemas are owned by local propaganda departments, they are also under the jurisdiction of provincial film distribution companies, which is a dual jurisdiction.
He said that this way he could taste life and allow him to think about life better." Billy Mann said to Givens with a smile.
The Billy Brothers Company will definitely be more brilliant in the future, and I believe Mr. Billy will definitely approve of your choice in heaven." Givens said with an unmoved smile.
The two big guys have initially determined their intentions. The specific capital injection and market value assessment are the business of the people below.
He has money, time and patience.
"The acquisition of the cinema is not going very smoothly." Just as Zhang Junping was thinking about it, Ye Lihua also talked about the acquisition of the cinema.
"President Givens, there are some things we need to talk about." David came to the door and said to Givens.
The two met once before, and this was their third meeting.
They will not participate directly, but will only control remotely from behind the scenes.
Although Billy Brothers Company is in trouble, Billy Mann still has other assets, and the funds to acquire the shares held by several brothers can still be obtained.
"Huh? It didn't go well? The local government didn't cooperate? Or do you want more money?" Zhang Junping asked in surprise.
"Mr. Billy, I think this is not your problem. The international market environment is like this. Go and see how many steel companies in France, the United Kingdom, and Canada are losing money and facing bankruptcy.
Zhang Junping nodded and had to admit that this was indeed a problem.
You should understand that the boss does not want the people below to unite.
I don’t even want there to be only one voice in the company." Givens was the first to speak.
In one sentence, David blocked all the countless words he wanted to say.
"President Givens, I admit that what you said is true, but Taiyi Company is the industry I am responsible for, and I don't want you to interfere too much.
As for one voice or two voices, that is something the boss will consider." David took a deep breath, calmed down his emotions, and then spoke.
