At 6 p.m., Gao Yan and Li Chaonan appeared together at the Xinglong Five-Star Hotel.
Zheng Dongze, the boss of Tianxing Entertainment, stood at the door of the private room with a group of his men to greet them.
Greeting them in the hotel lobby would diminish their presence; greeting them at the entrance of the private room demonstrates respect and courtesy without diminishing their own prestige.
Although Tianxing Entertainment has declined in recent years, it was a major force in the entertainment industry a few years ago. As the saying goes, one's environment shapes one's temperament and upbringing, and Zheng Dongze naturally exudes the aura of a big boss in his every move.
His attitude towards Gao Yan and Li Chaonan was warm, but it didn't feel like he was trying to please them; instead, it made people feel very comfortable.
It must be said that successful people are all masters of interpersonal communication.
After exchanging pleasantries, they sat down.
Zheng Dongze instructed the waiter to serve the dishes.
Despite his intention to acquire Tianxing Entertainment, Zheng Dongze made no mention of it during the meal. Instead, he enthusiastically introduced the Huaiyang cuisine that Gao Yan was using to entertain them.
He could also tell the story and origin of each dish.
Gao Yan wasn't in a hurry, because the more Zheng Dongze did, the more it showed how much he valued the matter. Therefore, he completely treated himself as someone who was there to eat.
The dinner ended after a little over an hour.
The group moved to a tea room in the hotel.
At this moment, Gao Yan slowly spoke up: "President Zheng, thank you for your hospitality tonight. This Huaiyang cuisine was very enjoyable. Shouldn't we get down to business now?"
"Haha, of course, of course!"
Zheng Dongze laughed loudly, but then his expression turned serious, and his smile vanished instantly. He said, "Mr. Gao, my request is very simple: 1.2 billion. You can have Tianxing Entertainment!"
"Mr. Zheng, it's a pleasure doing business with you!"
Gao Yan smiled and extended his hand.
Zheng Dongze was stunned for a moment before he reacted, because he couldn't believe that a deal worth 1.2 billion had been reached so easily. He also felt like he had punched the air, because he had made many preparations for the negotiations, but they were completely useless.
Gao Yan's smile grew even wider. "Old man, you've finally broken down, haven't you?"
"Mr. Gao, can you say that again?"
Zheng Dongze said in disbelief.
"I said, 'It's a pleasure doing business with you!'"
"Great, it's a pleasure doing business with you!"
Zheng Dongze also reached out and shook hands with Gao Yan!
"Mr. Zheng, have you prepared the contract? If so, let's sign it now!" Gao Yan continued.
"Mr. Gao, you're very helpful. Old Wu, bring out the prepared contract!"
Zheng Dongze said to a middle-aged man next to him.
Soon, both parties signed a formal transfer agreement. According to the agreement, the 1.2 billion yuan must be paid within one week, otherwise the agreement would be void!
Gao Yan waved his hand and laughed, "No need for a week, I'll pay right now!"
He then communicated with the system and transferred 1.2 billion from the system's reserve funds to the account designated by Zheng Dongze.
Upon receiving the money, Zheng Dongze was at a loss for words, finally managing to utter four words.
After leaving the hotel.
Li Chaonan let out a breath of stale air, and looked at Gao Yan with a complicated expression: "Xiao Gao, I'm really surprised today. I didn't expect the acquisition to be completed so quickly!"
"Rich and arrogant!"
Gao Yan said calmly.
Li Chaonan couldn't help but laugh and joke, "Your act was so good, I'd give you 9 points, I'm deducting one point so you don't get arrogant!"
"Ha ha!"
Gao Yan couldn't help but laugh. In fact, he knew that there was still room for negotiation on the price of 1.2 billion, but he also knew that Han Shangyu's Shangtian Entertainment had designs on Tianxing Entertainment.
He lost all interest in haggling and decisively cut the Gordian knot, catching Han Shangyu completely off guard!
Just as Gao Yan predicted.
At this moment, Han Shangyu had already received news that Tianxing Entertainment had been snatched away by someone else.
His face was very gloomy.
Because acquiring Tianxing Entertainment was a very important part of his plan.
Shangtian Entertainment reached a scale of nearly 10 billion yuan in just three years. This was due to two main factors: first, the Han family's connections; and second, the hype.
His desire to acquire Tianxing Entertainment stemmed from his interest in Tianxing Entertainment's distribution department and cinema chain.
However, distribution and cinema chains are precisely Shangtian Entertainment's weaknesses.
Once this weakness is addressed, he plans to list Shangtian Entertainment on Hong Kong Island. He is fully confident in making Shangtian Entertainment the entertainment company with the highest market value in the entertainment industry.
But now, his plan has failed, and Tianxing Entertainment has been hijacked.
This made him very angry.
"Have you found out who acquired Tianxing Entertainment?" Han Shangyu asked coldly.
"Second Young Master, the buyer's name is Gao Yan!" the middle-aged subordinate reported. "He contacted Zheng Dongze through Li Chaonan's connections!"
"High-sounding words?"
Han Shangyu vaguely felt that the name sounded familiar, but after thinking for a moment, he remembered where he had heard the name before, so he asked in a deep voice, "Do you have any specific information about him?"
"Second Young Master, it's still early, we're still investigating, but the other party is from Nandu!" the middle-aged man said.
"Southern Capital!"
Upon hearing those two words, Han Shangyu was almost certain that this Gao Yan was the Gao Yan he was thinking of. However, he did not expect that a nobody whose name he could hardly remember would ruin his plans.
They must have eaten the gall of a bear and the heart of a leopard!
So he roared, "Investigate him thoroughly, and find out everything about Gao Yan. Also, send someone to contact Zheng Dongze and tell him that Shangtian Entertainment is willing to acquire Tianxing Entertainment for 1.4 billion. As for the breach of contract, I can help him resolve it!"
