"Why did your old man go to India?"
With this thought in mind, Lu Hao couldn't help but ask.
The globalization of DreamWorks is something he has been promoting, involving cultural invasion and capital harvesting.
The first bridgehead is India, and the person in charge is Ma Chaoyue.
But to be fair, the progress so far has not been very good.
Ma Chaoyue reports his work progress to himself once a week.
Now, the company has just been established and is still recruiting local personnel, and the license has not yet been applied for.
This work efficiency is far behind that in China.
However, Lu Hao did not rush him and gave him enough patience.
After all, the cultural industry is different from other industries.
For example, if you invest in India to open a factory, the local government will definitely welcome it with open arms. After all, it can absorb a large number of workers, improve the level of local industrialization, and develop upstream and downstream supporting facilities... There are too many benefits in all aspects.
Investing in cultural industries, especially film production, is tantamount to sucking blood and brainwashing the next generation. Any country will be cautious about foreign investment in cultural fields.
but……
The Xu family is different.
The Xu family made their fortune in real estate. What can he do in India?
The answer is obvious.
"To build a building, of course."
Xu Cong said casually that this was actually a business secret, but there was not much to hide in front of Lu Hao, since Lu Hao was not in the same industry anyway.
"Last June, the newly elected leader of India announced a fundamental national policy to ensure housing for all. Over the next decade, they plan to build over 20 million homes, along with a large number of commercial real estate developments. My father started acquiring land last year, and he's already acquired a significant amount, so construction is underway gradually."
Xu Cong said this with a beaming expression, with a hint of boasting in his voice.
Every time he revealed these "high-level information" to Lu Hao, he felt inexplicably refreshed.
Just like many businessmen who like to buy various calligraphy and paintings by famous people and participate in various cultural activities when they become rich, in order to package themselves and improve their status.
After hearing Xu Cong's words, Lu Hao had a rough idea in his mind, but it was still not very clear.
This momentum can definitely be borrowed, but how to borrow it specifically still requires repeated consideration.
The friendship between businessmen is nothing more than sharing resources and exchanging interests.
DreamWorks is going to build a headquarters building with a total investment of about 10 billion. For the Xu family, this business is certainly a fat piece of meat.
"Brother Lu, what's going on? DreamWorks still has business in the Indian market?"
Seeing the thought in Lu Hao's eyes, Xu Cong asked appropriately. In terms of emotional intelligence, Xu Cong had been influenced by it since childhood and had a very high level of it.
Everything happens for a reason.
Lu Hao asked about India for no reason, there must be something wrong.
"Um."
"DreamWorks wants to enter India and produce localized films, but we're having trouble getting an entry permit. Could you please help me find a solution, Mr. Xu?"
Lu Hao asked with a smile, a bit tentative.
Given the nature and scale of the Xu family's investments, the level of connections they can access is definitely a thousand times stronger than Ma Chaoyue's.
All Ma Chaoyue can see are small-time officials in the relevant departments, and he may not even be able to meet the leaders in charge. As for Boss Xu, his net worth is there, so he must be at least at the mayor level.
That's how many things are.
It is easy to deal with the King of Hell, but difficult to deal with the little devils, especially in India, a place with a high level of bureaucracy and corruption. What is done with a word from the top may take a year to be done by the people below.
At this moment, hearing Lu Hao's words, Xu Cong was stunned for a moment, then frowned slightly.
DreamWorks to enter India?
He instinctively thought that this matter was unreliable.
After all, in many people's impression, Indian movies are the kind that involve singing and dancing at the slightest disagreement. Coupled with the local peculiar but unique cultural origins, how can Lu Hao grasp the pulse?
But, on second thought, since Lu Hao dared to go, he must have some confidence.
Assessing the matter in his mind, Xu Cong was silent for a moment, then said cautiously, "I'll find time to talk to my dad about it and see what he says. If it works out, that would be great. If not, don't blame me, brother."
Although Xu Cong likes to play around and have fun, he is actually quite pragmatic when it comes to serious matters and is not at all noisy.
This attitude made Lu Hao feel that the success rate was not low.
"Okay, thank you in advance."
"If it really works, I will definitely give you a big surprise."
Lu Hao made empty promises casually.
This is already a necessary skill.
…
We have almost finished talking about the serious business. Looking down at the stage, the beauty pageant is almost coming to an end.
As the judges' scores came out one by one, the trends of the champion, runner-up and third place gradually became clear.
Lu Hao didn't know if there was any shady manipulation involved, but at least it seemed that the beauties with scores at the top were all above 90 points, which was well-deserved.
Ding Dong.
The doorbell of the small box rang gently. Lu Hao got up and opened the door. He saw Sister Yun standing outside with a bright smile on her face.
"Mr. Lu, excuse me."
"Excuse me? You are the host, please come in."
Sister Yun walked in briskly. Shi Ran sat down and, carefully choosing her tone, said softly, "Mr. Lu, may I trouble you for something? The award ceremony is about to begin. How about you present the award to the champion?"
Generally, the award presenters in various competitions are the most famous or the most respected people at the scene.
The higher the star's status, the greater the weight, and the more valuable the championship is.
Now at this beauty pageant, Lu Hao is a real Buddha. If he could be the award presenter, it would be a great honor.
"OK."
After hearing this, Lu Hao weighed it and felt it was no big deal, so he nodded and agreed.
"Thank you very much, shall we go down now?"
Seeing Lu Hao nod, Sister Yun felt overjoyed and had even thought of the title for the press release.
"This is a great advantage for me, Brother Lu. Sister Yun, you have to treat me to a meal and introduce me to some more girls."
Xu Cong took advantage of the opportunity and talked cheerfully.
"Mr. Xu, please don't joke with me. Do you still need me to introduce girls? You're standing there, and girls are jumping at you."
"Who said that?"
"Actually, I quite like Bai Zijin. Where does this girl come from?"
Xu Cong asked with a smile, his playboy attitude clearly revealed.
He knows that many people regard him as a rich second-generation who is stupid, rich, playboy and lustful. He himself never denies this label. Instead, he strictly plays his role and gets what he deserves.
Bai Zijin?
When she heard the name, Sister Yun's expression changed slightly. She had never expected that Xu Cong would actually fall in love with this guy.
