After learning that the Hu family was behind his Huachao computer, Su Wu decided to seek help from the Li family.
But he wouldn't do it if asked to concede benefits in exchange for it.
He prefers a mutually beneficial partnership.
Peter's words were full of probing, clearly indicating that he had a way to help him solve his current troubles.
What is Su Wu's value now?
It seems that only money can save it.
Therefore, Ma Peter's probing was always about money, which was a clear indication to Su Wu.
Even if Su Wu was completely ignorant of social etiquette, he could hear and understand clearly.
For him, it would be quite worthwhile to spend some money to hire a powerful thug to go head-to-head with the Hu family.
So he frankly revealed his true feelings and disclosed his backing company, HK.
This company was a shell company that Su Wu registered abroad. To put it bluntly, it was just an address and a bunch of impressive data reports that could be found online.
But this very company helped him solve a lot of troubles.
Now that it's been brought up, it has piqued Peter's interest.
Peter looked at him with such conviction and involuntarily leaned closer.
"Xiao Wu, your brother is planning to enter the entertainment industry and start a film company to make a few big movies, but this kind of thing is very expensive, and he's worried about not having enough funds. Do you have any funding channels?"
A film company? Making blockbusters?
Upon hearing this, Su Wu couldn't help but smile bitterly.
The domestic film industry is now taking off.
But it's only just started to improve, and the film and television market is basically dominated by Hollywood blockbusters and Hong Kong films.
As for domestic films, it's fair to say they lose more money than they earn.
However, a considerable amount of capital has indeed begun to flow into this industry, but everyone's market positioning is problematic.
People nowadays are single-mindedly focused on making blockbusters and works of art, but they've abandoned their local advantages, so losing money is to be expected.
Su Wu never expected that Peter Ma would want to do this.
He couldn't help but ask tentatively, "Brother Ma? You're in the real estate business, are you planning to switch careers?"
"Sigh, I'm optimistic about the film industry. I plan to start by getting to know the industry through film production companies, and then move on to theaters later..."
Peter Ma clearly had been planning this for a long time; he spoke eloquently and made no attempt to hide his ambition.
He not only wants to make films, but also to run a cinema chain; it seems he's really planning to give this industry a try.
At this moment, Li Zhi said disdainfully from the side, "Tch, isn't it because my fourth uncle has just arrived at the ministry and happens to be involved in this area?"
He truly doesn't treat Su Wu like an outsider; one sentence revealed his true intentions.
Seeing Li Zhi's disdainful expression, Peter Ma was both amused and exasperated.
How is he supposed to make up a story now?!
He could only chuckle awkwardly, "Hehehe, these days everything is about resources. We can't waste the resources we have."
Yes, resources are king.
As a reborn person, Su Wu wholeheartedly agrees with this.
Starting from scratch or going through hardship to build a business are all things that can happen, but they are definitely not something to boast about.
Unfortunately, many talented and ambitious people ultimately fail because they lack the resources.
Feeling a pang of emotion, Su Wu couldn't help but think of himself.
He has many advantages that others cannot match, but he also has his own shortcomings.
He lacked interpersonal relationships, social status, and so on.
That's precisely why he became passive this time.
Huachao Computer's operations are almost at a standstill because it lacks sufficient personal connections.
With a sigh, he smiled and said, "Brother Ma is right. Only by knowing how to integrate the available resources around you can you achieve the greatest success. So, Brother Ma, how much funding do you need?"
"You know, I'm not short of a hundred or two hundred million. I need a billion in working capital right now, it's tough..."
When it came to serious matters, Peter Ma was somewhat disheartened.
He shook his head slightly. "To be honest, because I didn't listen to you, I lost a lot of money in the stock market this time, a full 500 million yuan, and I'm still stuck with it!"
Upon hearing this, Su Wu was secretly alarmed.
No wonder Peter Ma has been missing all this time; he's been losing money.
He's probably rushing to start a film and television company because he wants to make money as quickly as possible to cover his losses.
Secretly guessing what was going on, Su Wu revealed a somewhat troublesome expression.
"Brother Ma, could you give me a data report from your company? I'll try my best to help you negotiate. However, I'm afraid I can't do it right now, after all..."
“Hey, it’s just that little thing about Hua Chao, I’ll handle it for you, I promise you won’t suffer any losses! My brother is counting on you to save his life.” Peter interrupted before he could finish speaking.
Su Wu was secretly delighted, but his face remained impassive.
"Brother Ma, I can't guarantee anything about this, after all, it's 1 billion Dragon Coins. By the way, how do you plan to attract investment? Is it through share issuance, paying interest, or a betting arrangement?"
To appear more professional, Su Wu used a few terms he had seen before.
This completely baffled Peter Ma and Li Zhi.
Peter Ma thought to himself that Su Wu was indeed the spokesperson for that legendary venture capital firm.
He tentatively asked, "Brother, I'm planning to transfer my shares. What do you think?"
“If your company has enough assets, then it’s entirely possible. The reason I didn’t mention it is because I estimate that your company’s investment cannot exceed 1 billion.” Su Wu shrugged noncommittally.
The more professional he appeared, the more convinced Peter became.
He laughed and said, "What do you think, Xiao Wu?"
"I can't say for sure. Let's wait for someone from the company to come and discuss the specifics. But I will try my best to explain your resource advantages."
Su Wu gave a plausible reason, and even winked.
Peter clapped his hands happily, "Great, hurry up and help me get it done, I'll help you solve the problem."
Everyone was happy and gained something from the meal.
It must be said that Peter Ma is a decisive and efficient person.
Just one day later, good news came from Huachao Computer.
The various inspections targeting them have finally decreased, at least they are able to operate normally.
Their biggest problem now is the Huachao Building and the messes from the past of the merged companies.
Since Peter Ma has shown his sincerity, Su Wu has no choice but to take action as well.
Now that he's created a Hong Kong venture capital firm, he has to keep up the act.
In order to carry out the lie to the end, Su Wu had no choice but to recruit a venture capital team with professional knowledge.
At the same time, in order to elevate the image, the team consisted entirely of Europeans and Americans, whom he hired from the dark web.
In addition, he hired a stunning blonde woman to act as his representative in the negotiations.
This beautiful woman is named Ivy, and she is an actress registered with the Screen Actors Guild, but she keeps a low profile.
Su Wu knew that this woman was a natural actress and a con artist, because according to the trajectory of their previous life, they would enter the same organization a few years later.
