Chapter 290: Without the filter, the Spring Festival Gala is just a business
…
Mr. Wang smiled and turned to look at Lu Feng: "I'm just curious. You're not a superficial person. Why do you like filming so much?"
Mr. Wang just couldn't understand why Lu Feng, with so many ways to make money, chose to make movies and become a star.
Lu Feng likes to be a singer, and Mr. Wang can understand that.
After all, singers stand on the stage, unique and attracting everyone's attention. They can express their talents without restraint and are admired by countless people.
Being a director is understandable.
After all, there is a kind of pleasure of being a dictator in controlling everything on the set.
But as an actor...
The crew's shabby place was a hodgepodge of all kinds of people, filled with sweat and sour stench, and the quality of the staff was hard to describe.
Although Mr. Wang is in charge of the group's overseas investments, he never goes to the crew because he dislikes the place being dirty and messy.
She really couldn't understand how Lu Feng could endure such hardship?
Moreover, he seemed to be enjoying it.
For other actors, filming is the only option, because if they don’t, they won’t make much money at all, and if they make various investments, they will be cheated and lose all their money.
Filming is the value of their existence.
But for Lu Feng, filming is not the only way for him to prove his worth.
Moreover, Mr. Wang heard from others that Lu Feng was a model worker in the crew. He was very meticulous about all the shots and was more serious about them than the director.
This is really hard to understand.
"Sister Shan, to be honest with you, I don't like filming at all."
"I couldn't stand the environment on the set. The food was not good, and I had to wear a wig and makeup every day. I was fed up with it. I was so tired of being intimidated every day. My back and waist ached. And the people on the set were really of poor quality."
“However, after the film was released, I felt a special sense of accomplishment when I saw everyone’s love for the film and the positive reviews for my role.”
“This is something I can never experience no matter how much money I make.”
After the TV series and movies were broadcast, Lu Feng received hundreds of thousands of praise points every day. These were unknown treasure chests.
Apart from anything else, the medal of [Handsome Man in Ancient Costume] made Lu Feng extremely happy. As long as he put on ancient costume, he would find that the girls would stare at him with admiration when they saw him.
This is an excellent experience that you can't get no matter how much money you spend.
"It seems that you really like filming. In order to make your filming experience better, you opened a film and television company, right?"
From Lu Feng's complaints about the crew environment and then opening his own film and television company, Mr. Wang seemed to have discovered something.
Of course, Mr. Wang’s words just now were meant to test Lu Feng.
Now it seems that my worries were unnecessary.
No matter how much money Lu Feng makes, he still can't get rid of the image of being an idol.
This is a typical performer personality.
He just likes to be on the stage and be the center of attention.
Unless one day, Lu Feng finds himself being disliked by everyone, otherwise, this problem cannot be cured.
"You've helped me a lot in the past two years. Today, I'll give you a gift as well."
Compared to filming, Lu Feng seems to prefer showing up at various large-scale evening parties.
Last year, in order to be on the Lantern Festival Gala, Lu Feng dragged Li Xiaoqin to the Kunqu Opera Troupe every day to show his face.
It's here again this year.
Mr. Wang had already heard the news, and Lu Feng took Li Xiaoqin and Wen Jiahui to record an ancient style song.
Unfortunately, Lu Feng didn’t know that CCTV’s Lantern Festival Gala had a new chief director this year, and the connections left by the Magic City Kunqu Opera Troupe were no longer applicable.
Therefore, there is a high probability that Lu Feng will not be able to perform on the Lantern Festival Gala this year.
But it doesn’t matter, Mr. Wang has his own connections.
At this moment, Mr. Wang lowered his voice and said to Lu Feng: "I just took you around. One of them was called Director Deng. Do you remember him?"
Lu Feng nodded and asked, "The guy with the short flat head?"
Director Deng, he thought it was just a name.
Now that Mr. Wang mentioned this, Lu Feng realized that this was a director.
But in the circle, there seems to be no famous director with the surname Deng.
So, Lu Feng didn’t care at first.
Now it seems that Director Deng has something?
Mr. Wang smiled and said mysteriously, "Director Deng is one of the assistant directors of this year's Spring Festival Gala Organizing Committee, and is specifically responsible for the song project. Aren't you trying to get on the Spring Festival Gala by asking for connections everywhere? Get him on board, and I guarantee you'll be able to sing on the Spring Festival Gala."
Good job!
I knew there would be a big project tonight!
At this moment, Lu Feng really wanted to kowtow to Mr. Wang.
This big sister is really awesome.
The relationship is really hard.
She can even find assistant directors to select programs for the Spring Festival Gala.
"I can only help you up to this point. I can't tell you about some of the rules of the CCTV Spring Festival Gala. From now on, it's up to you. I believe that with your intelligence, you can understand it."
Mr. Wang patted Lu Feng on the shoulder and turned to socialize with other people.
She is not Lu Feng's nanny. After introducing the person in charge to Lu Feng, Lu Feng will have to thank her for the success or failure.
However, as soon as Mr. Wang left and Lu Feng was left alone, the female celebrities who had been paying attention to Lu Feng suddenly became restless.
Especially, Fan Bingbing.
She has recently been frequently rumored to be having an affair with her agent Mu Xiaoguang... This is not a good thing for a female star.
Some time ago, Fan Bingbing brought in a well-known agent in the circle, Yang Tianzhen, to join her own studio. He and Mu Xiaoguang, one helped her with business, and the other helped her with publicity.
They can be regarded as her left and right protectors.
The scandal with Mu Xiaoguang does not have a good impact on her image...It would be best if she could find a good-looking guy to divert public attention.
It is obvious that Lu Feng is the high-quality candidate.
Putting aside other things, Qi Wei, a little-known celebrity, had a scandal with Lu Feng, which was obviously false, but her traffic has been incredibly high recently.
If she could join forces with Lu Feng and create hype together, she would definitely be able to absorb all the traffic from the domestic entertainment industry.
The two of them will become traffic black holes, suppressing the others, making them dim and without any chance of success.
Holding a highball glass and pouring herself some champagne, Fan Bingbing shook her big butt and came to Lu Feng with a fragrant breeze blowing on her face, smiling before she spoke.
"Boss Wang is such a jerk. Why does he occupy you all the time? I can't even start. Oops, I suddenly feel like the zipper on my back is about to fall off. Good brother, can you help me take a look?"
In 2008, Fan Bingbing was at the peak of her popularity and appearance. With the works "Apple" and "Shinjuku Incident", she had surpassed Zhao Wei in the ranking of female artists and was only slightly behind Zhang Ziyi.
She felt that if a beauty like herself took the initiative to attack a man and release her charm, even if the man was not ecstatic, he would at least be happy about it.
Unexpectedly, Lu Feng didn't want to pay attention to her at all: "Ms. Fan, I have something else to do. Let's talk next time."
She will have the opportunity to perform on the Spring Festival Gala soon. Not to mention that Fan Bingbing's zipper is not tight, even if she leaks something, Lu Feng will at most take a look and waste a second.
Then, turn around and leave.
"You, I..."
Fan Bingbing was so angry that he almost vomited blood. A woman with such beauty came to your door, and you didn’t even look at her and just turned around and left?
Are you still a man?
…
"Bitch!"
"Fox spirit!"
“How shameless!”
Not far away, Li Xiaoqin and Tang Yan were sitting in a corner, chatting casually.
But the two of them always looked at Lu Feng.
Mr. Wang took Lu Feng with him to meet people everywhere. Li Xiaoqin was very bored waiting nearby, but she knew that this was Lu Feng's job, so she didn't say anything.
Just now, after Mr. Wang left, Li Xiaoqin thought that Lu Feng would turn around and come to find her.
Unexpectedly, Fan Bingbing suddenly trotted over, deliberately lowered his body, showing his back to Lu Feng, turned his face sideways, and whispered something to Lu Feng with a vixen-like face.
Li Xiaoqin couldn't hear clearly what was said.
But that posture clearly showed that it was an attempt to seduce Lu Feng.
Women understand women best.
Whatever Fan Bingbing wanted to do to Lu Feng, not only Li Xiaoqin was angry when she saw it, even Tang Yan was a little angry.
At this moment, both of them stood up at the same time.
Fortunately, the next moment, Lu Feng was still the same as they had imagined. He did not give any good face to this wild woman who came up to him for no reason, and just turned around and left.
"whee!"
Seeing this scene, Li Xiaoqin smiled happily and sat down calmly.
Tang Yan, who was standing by, also breathed a sigh of relief and said to Li Xiaoqin, "Did you see that? I told you, Lu Feng is a blind man. Not to mention on the set, even at a social dinner like this, when a beautiful girl like Fan Bingbing came up to him, he didn't even give her face at all."
"hey-hey."
Li Xiaoqin smiled sweetly and said to Tang Yan: "Before, when you told me this, I didn't quite believe it. Now I see that Lu Feng is really a blind man."
As a woman, Li Xiaoqin couldn't help but take a few more glances at a beauty of Fan Bingbing's level, and even felt a little ashamed of herself.
Who would have thought that when Fan Bingbing took the initiative to come to the door and said something playful, Lu Feng not only did not give him a good look, but turned around and left.
Seems like he is disgusted.
The more Lu Feng disliked Fan Bingbing, the happier Li Xiaoqin felt.
…
In the corner of the banquet.
Lu Feng took the initiative to find Director Deng and clinked glasses with him.
"Director Deng, let's be frank. I want to be on the Spring Festival Gala. What are the requirements? Please give me some hints."
Lu Feng spoke so bluntly that Director Deng almost laughed out loud.
But it’s better to be straightforward.
After all the twists and turns, in the end you still have to negotiate terms, right?
Director Deng thought for a moment and said, "You've been quite popular recently, and your songs are pretty good. Next year, if nothing unexpected happens, it should be your turn."
Next year and next year, how many next years are there?
Besides, next year it won’t be Director Deng who will make the decision, so his opinion won’t count.
Lu Feng looked around for a while, and whispered in Director Deng's ear: "2 million, send me to the Spring Festival Gala, and after the matter is completed, give me another 3 million. I don't care how you divide it among yourselves."
After saying that, Lu Feng stretched out his hand, looked at Director Deng, and prepared to high-five Director Deng as an oath.
You can’t get on the Spring Festival Gala through conventional means.
Just now, President Wang gave him a mysterious hint, and Lu Feng understood it immediately.
It costs money.
It doesn't matter. If he can get 30 million points by performing on the Spring Festival Gala, Lu Feng would be willing to spend even 10 million, let alone 5 million.
Director Deng was so amused by Lu Feng that he pulled him aside and said, "Are you so anxious? With your achievements, you will definitely be able to perform on the Spring Festival Gala within two years. Why waste money?"
Participating in evening party programs is the announcement fee that the TV station pays to celebrity artists.
The announcement fee for the CCTV Spring Festival Gala is not much, about two or three thousand yuan, just a token of my appreciation.
Lu Feng did the opposite and spent money to get himself on the Spring Festival Gala.
One hit is 5 million.
Nowadays, there are only a handful of stars who can earn 5 million a year.
Lu Feng, a RMB player, spends millions of dollars at a time, which made him dizzy. He almost agreed to it just now.
You have to know that in this era, a house in the center of Yanjing City only costs 2 million yuan.
Fortunately, at the critical moment, Director Deng remembered his predecessors who were sent to prison and sang Tears Behind Bars, so he was able to resist this huge temptation.
Director Deng was able to attend Mr. Wang’s birthday party, so of course they were friends and knew what the relationship between Lu Feng and Mr. Wang was.
He thought about it and decided to reveal some key information to Lu Feng: "Do you know Huang Shengyi?"
Lu Feng nodded: "I know. Master Xing's mute girl. What's wrong? I have to go through her connections to be on the Spring Festival Gala?"
Is this true or false?
She has such a strong background? I've never heard of it before.
"Of course not."
Director Deng shook his head quickly and said patiently, "Last year and this year, for two consecutive years, if nothing unexpected happened, she was the only lead singer of the song and dance program. Even Jay Chou didn't get this treatment. Why do you think that is?"
"She spent money?"
Apart from spending money, Lu Feng couldn't think of any reason.
It was understandable last year, after all, the drama "The Legend and the Heroes" starring her was quite popular, but why is it so popular this year?
She doesn't have any works.
"That's not so simple."
Director Deng shook his head and added in a low voice: "Do you know the economics master, Wu Jinglian?"
You definitely know this.
Lu Feng nodded, realizing something: "You want to tell me that Huang Shengyi is rich, powerful, and has a good background?"
This kid is really smart.
Director Deng smiled and nodded: "Since you have guessed it, don't ask. Wait until next year, when the competition will not be so fierce. I will help you get a spot."
——Trivia: Wu Jinglian is Huang Shengyi’s cousin.
…
After talking with Director Deng, Lu Feng realized that he was famous enough and his ability was also acceptable. After all, in the past two months, his album sales were 50-50 with Jay Chou.
Especially the song "In My Singing Voice" he sang, because he sang it for all his fans at the album signing event.
It makes his fans extremely happy, just like it’s New Year.
Therefore, Lu Feng’s number of passers-by fans suddenly increased a lot.
If nothing unexpected happens, Lu Feng's next album will definitely sell well, and he will also win in various golden song awards next year.
But it didn't work.
Even if you are as talented as Jay Chou, when you perform on the Spring Festival Gala, you still have to sing with others.
After all, the relationship is not strong enough.
Otherwise, is it that Jay Chou is not capable enough?
"I don't accept it!"
"Huang Shengyi, a third-rate actor, can sing a solo song at the Spring Festival Gala just by relying on his family's connections? Why? Do we singers deserve to be bullied?"
Lu Feng thought about it, but still couldn't bear it, so he turned around and went to find Director Deng again.
…
"Lu Feng, why are you here again? Didn't I tell you that you are still young, don't worry, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future."
If it were someone else, Director Deng wouldn’t bother to say more.
First of all, Lu Feng has a special relationship with Mr. Wang.
Secondly, Lu Feng’s singing is really good and he is considered one of the best among the younger generation.
Thirdly, Lu Feng’s identity is not ordinary. He is the boss of a film and television company. He has a very good relationship with the folk art circles in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai, and he is also a core figure in the Shanghai circle of Shanghai Theatre Academy.
If nothing unexpected happens, Lu Feng will be a leading figure in the Shanghai circle in the next ten years.
He still has to give this face.
They are all in the same circle, so maybe at some point, he will need this favor.
"Director Deng, I also have a background, I also have money, I also have connections... Please help me think of a solution."
Lu Feng vaguely revealed to Director Deng that he originally had a marriage partner, who was the daughter of a powerful family in Kazakhstan.
As a Central Asian country, some parts of Kazakhstan are very traditional.
Their system is basically equivalent to the Khan system.
The old Khan family currently holds almost all power in Kazakhstan.
The classmate of Lu Feng’s father is a member of this family, and a direct descendant of the royal family.
The marriage partner he introduced to Lu Feng was one of the core members of his family. Although she was not at the princess level, she was at the county lady level.
A genuine descendant of the royal family.
In order to perform on the Spring Festival Gala, Lu Feng decided to give Director Deng a little diplomatic shock.
What does it mean to use foreign powers to bully others?
In this day and age, this issue can be big or small.
Anyway, Director Deng will definitely not be able to handle this.
There is no way he would make things so complicated just for a list of names for the Spring Festival Gala.
After all, Lu Feng could go to sing at the Spring Festival Gala or not, it was just a matter of words from the person in charge... However, the list was almost finalized.
The only controversial thing is the show hosted by Huang Shengyi.
Just now, Director Deng deliberately mentioned Huang Shengyi, just to tell Lu Feng that you can't beat the others, and they are also very capable.
The only one you can replace is this person with connections.
But, their relationship is very strong.
If you don't accept it, you can only wait until next year.
After two consecutive years, Huang Shengyi should have had enough fun. By then, there will naturally be a vacancy on the roster.
By then, Lu Feng can also move around.
But he never expected that Lu Feng would play a trick on him... Using foreign powers to gain respect? A marriage partner for a foreign dignitary?
This has completely exceeded the barriers of the entertainment industry.
Director Deng has been at CCTV for so many years and has seen a lot, but he has never seen Lu Feng's style of play.
"Lu Feng, what you just told me, is it true or false?"
Director Deng felt that he had been deceived by President Wang. He thought that according to President Wang's intention, he was just giving Lu Feng some reassurance, saying that if it didn't work this year, they could try next year.
Don't be in a hurry.
Young man, you are still young.
But I never expected that Lu Feng was a madman.
"There was such a thing before, but I declined... However, I recently received news that the other party seemed to be quite curious. How could someone dare to reject a royal relative like her?"
"My dad let it slip a few days ago that the young lady seemed a little unwilling to accept the rejection. After being rejected, she has been paying attention to my situation and often listens to my songs at home. As you know, the Internet is very developed now."
"To be fair, the quality of my songs is pretty good. Plus, the way I look when I sing, I'm not bragging... I should be pretty handsome, right?"
Lu Feng pretended to be in an awkward situation, as if he was about to be forced into marriage at any time.
"No wonder."
Director Deng just heard from a friend that Lu Feng is about to get engaged to his childhood sweetheart.
He was a little confused. Lu Feng was so young and there were so many beauties in the entertainment industry, with new little stars every year. With his conditions, he could have as much fun as he wanted.
Why get engaged?
Isn't this just making things difficult for yourself?
Now, he seemed to understand something.
That's because Lu Feng was afraid of being forced to go to Kazakhstan to marry a foreign prince and become a son-in-law of a wealthy family in the Western Regions, so he got engaged to Li Xiaoqin in a hurry and took the initiative to become a second-hand commodity.
"Lu Feng, you're making it very difficult for me."
Director Deng was really convinced.
This is really going to be difficult.
If he doesn't give Lu Feng face, Lu Feng might get crazy and use diplomatic rhetoric to talk to him, saying that he is destroying the friendly relations with Central Asian countries. Then he will be completely dumbfounded.
"Director Deng, you don't have to be embarrassed."
Lu Feng thought about it, and suddenly understood something, and laughed: "I am obsessed. I have a filter for the Spring Festival Gala. Now I think that no matter what kind of party it is, it is always a commercial activity."
“The same principle actually applies to the Spring Festival Gala.”
"To put it bluntly, CCTV is using this traditional festival to gather huge traffic, and then monetizes the IP of the Spring Festival Gala to obtain high profits as a commercial means."
Other TV stations hold New Year's Eve parties and spend a lot of money to invite celebrities in order to attract brands to spend money on advertising.
The Spring Festival Gala has the advantage of time and location, and has CCTV, a large traffic platform. It pays celebrities two to three thousand yuan in announcement fees to invite them to participate in the performance, and they have to be grateful and thank CCTV for giving them this opportunity.
And CCTV makes a lot of money every year thanks to the Spring Festival Gala, a big IP.
In 2008, he made about 500 million yuan.
In 2009, there will be more, not less.
The most expensive advertisements in the Spring Festival Gala should be the opening screen advertisement and the midnight time announcement. In this era, it would cost at least 50 million.
CCTV earned 100 million yuan just from the interstitial ads during these two time periods.
There are about 40 programs in the entire Spring Festival Gala.
If we break it down, each program is worth about 10 million on average.
After this analysis, Lu Feng had a clear idea in his mind.
Today is really a special day for Lu Feng.
He was first completely disenchanted with those big-name stars, and now, Lu Feng is also completely disenchanted with the Spring Festival Gala, thinking it is just a clichéd commercial event.
After he calmed down, he suddenly felt bored about performing on the Spring Festival Gala.
However, points still need to be earned!
At this time, Lu Feng spoke calmly and in a business tone, "My family has a snack food brand called Three Squirrels. We want to sponsor a song program for the Spring Festival Gala. The offer is 20 million."
"But I have one condition. For this song program, we must find a singer with a good image, good singing skills, and originality to sing. The singer must not be older than 20 years old."
Yes, so many preconditions have been added.
After searching the entire Chinese music scene, only Lu Feng himself meets the requirements!
It was like he spent his own money to customize a position for himself in the Spring Festival Gala and get on stage!
"Director Deng, can you help me ask if CCTV can do this project? If not, I won't force it."
"I believe that Mango TV, Tomato TV, Blueberry TV, and Lychee TV will not refuse 20 million yuan for advertising."
With 20 million in marketing fees, Lu Feng can get these four TV stations to reserve all the best time slots during the Spring Festival for him to gain positive review points.
Under normal circumstances, the sponsorship fee for a Spring Festival Gala program is only 10 million.
Lu Feng directly offered 20 million.
In addition to the 10 million in marketing fees, the other 10 million is equivalent to the fee that the brand owner designates to the advertising and marketing company and requires a certain celebrity to participate in the performance.
After all, it is a custom project, so of course you have to pay extra.
To put it bluntly, after removing the filters, isn't this what the Spring Festival Gala is all about?
"Mr. Lu, this business is not within my authority, but I can give you the contact information."
Director Deng looked at Lu Feng with admiration and even changed the way he addressed him.
Although Lu Feng is not very old, he has a very clear understanding of the essence of things.
Let’s talk business.
As for the Spring Festival Gala project, with so many people in CCTV watching over it, building relationships and using connections, even giving money privately, will not be of much use.
For someone like Lu Feng, who openly said that he wanted to spend money and appoint himself to sing, the top leaders of CCTV would have nothing to say.
After all, this is the brand's requirement.
It's normal for people to make some extra requests after spending money, right?
If other stars also want to do this, CCTV would very much welcome them.
In this way, they can generate an additional 800 million yuan in revenue from the 40 programs. I guess the senior leaders of CCTV will be grinning from ear to ear.
Of course, the most important thing is that Lu Feng himself is very popular this year and has met the requirements to perform on the Spring Festival Gala.
"Mr. Zhao, come here for a moment."
Lu Feng knew that the matter had been settled.
He waved at Zhao Ruoyao, who was sitting in the corner and chatting with Li Xiaoqin and Tang Yan.
"I?"
Zhao Ruoyao was a little bit unbelievable for a moment.
She pointed at herself and confirmed again and again that Lu Feng was calling her and not Li Xiaoqin. She immediately straightened her skirt and trotted over.
The whole person, like a little swallow, suddenly felt a lot lighter.
"Mr. Zhao, please remember this number. This is the office number of Director Li, who is in charge of advertising investment for CCTV Spring Festival Gala."
"You can discuss the specific business cooperation slowly."
Director Deng said a few words to Zhao Ruoyao, then excused himself to Lu Feng and turned to talk to other people.
"Boss, what's going on?"
Zhao Ruoyao took a look at the phone number in his hand and was a little confused. How come he accidentally got a product placement in the Spring Festival Gala?
What does it mean?
"20 million, buy me to be on the Spring Festival Gala."
Lu Feng snorted lightly, a smug look on his face.
It feels good to have money.
If he had known that the Spring Festival Gala was like this, why would he have put so much thought into it?
Sure enough, the essence of all business activities is to make money.
At this moment, Lu Feng looked at the somewhat dazed Zhao Ruoyao and said with a lack of interest: "Go and make this happen. After the Spring Festival Gala program is officially announced, have the company's publicity department work at full capacity for me. I want to be the most popular star in this year's Spring Festival Gala."
Isn’t it just spending money on marketing?
Lu Feng didn't learn anything else, but in the future Internet era, he was knowledgeable about the various tricks used by Internet trolls, black actors, and so on.
Huang Shengyi is still too shameless.
I spent a lot of money and used my connections, but in the end, nothing happened.
If Director Deng hadn’t mentioned it, Lu Feng wouldn’t have known that this lady, despite the infamy, had appeared on the Spring Festival Gala for two consecutive years.
Or a solo performance.
After spending so much money and putting so much effort, there was still no splash.
What a failed show.
"What? You spent 20 million just to be on the Spring Festival Gala???"
Zhao Ruoyao felt that Lu Feng was crazy.
Is it necessary to spend so much money just to perform on the Spring Festival Gala?
Brother, this is 20 million, not 2,000 yuan.
Many people will never earn this much money in their entire life.
Do you just want to experience what it's like to be on the Spring Festival Gala?
The thoughts of rich people are really incomprehensible.
"Mr. Zhao, what's that look in your eyes? Ever since you met me, have I ever made a loss-making deal?"
Lu Feng knew that Zhao Ruoyao could not understand, but he had to correct Zhao Ruoyao's wrong point of view.
First of all, 20 million in marketing expenses will definitely not be a loss.
The brand [Three Squirrels] is still unknown at present, but as long as it shows up on the Spring Festival Gala, many people will definitely remember this brand.
For snack foods, the most difficult issue to solve is national popularity, which is now there all of a sudden.
Secondly, Lu Feng can also get points for positive reviews.
In Lu Feng’s mind, one positive review point is much more valuable than one dollar.
After all, 20 million is easy money.
But, to get 20 million positive review points, how many movies would he have to shoot and how many songs would he have to write?
"Boss, I want to say that the Three Squirrels company may not have that much money on its books."
Seeing that Lu Feng had made up his mind, Zhao Ruoyao knew that he could no longer persuade him and could only stammer and hint to Lu Feng.
Lu Feng gave his father a lot of money, but it was only about 300 or 400 million.
I set up a factory, placed orders for goods, and stockpiled a lot of raw materials, and the money has been almost spent.
certainly.
The nut gift packs of [Three Squirrels] have been rolled out in major supermarket channels. Sales are good, with sales of about tens of millions per month and a profit of about 2 million.
It’s similar to crab roe crisps.
But it is impossible for the company to spend 20 million on marketing in a short period of time.
"There's not enough money on the books?"
Lu Feng was stunned for a moment, a little speechless: "Isn't this simple? We still have money in our company's account. You can temporarily set up an advertising company, inject 20 million into it, and then sign a brand promotion contract with my father's company, and advance 20 million to CCTV. Then ask my father and slowly collect the debt."
Lu Feng knew that doing so would involve embezzlement.
If we really want to make a fuss, the company's shareholders, including Tangren and Shanghai Film Group, can both file legal lawsuits.
But it doesn't matter.
The legal aspect is one thing, but in reality, unless the company goes bankrupt, who would bother him for such a small matter?
His family's nut business can make 2 million every month without any marketing. Combined with the crab roe crisps business, the profit is 4 million a month.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this business is very promising and is clearly aimed at going public. Once listed, the combined valuation of the two companies will be at least 1 billion.
In this situation, who would be against him?
Besides...
The legal person of the company is Zhao Ruoyao.
The person who actually carried out the operation was also Zhao Ruoyao.
If something really goes wrong and a lawsuit is filed, Zhao Ruoyao will be the defendant and the one who will risk going to jail.
Lu Feng will be fine.
At this moment, Zhao Ruoyao was really in a dilemma, because Lu Feng was messing around and she had to bear all the risks.
