Mr. Du is just here to give away money for free. All he can do is boast about how Sun Hung Kai Properties is optimistic about us and has invested in us during the fundraising process, and then try to attract other shareholders to join us.
This method is considered a common approach.
"Why not take the money that's offered to you?" Mr. Feng nodded and agreed after listening to Mr. Du's explanation of the company's development.
It was getting late, and Mr. Feng had already gone to rest. Zhenkun saw him off. The crowd at the Feng family's door waved and exchanged pleasantries for a while. Watching Zhenkun leave, Lu Feng breathed a sigh of relief.
"Mr. Lu, thank you very much!" Mr. Du said.
"You're too kind!" Lu Feng said, shaking his hand. "If anything comes up in the future, let's help each other out. I'm afraid I'll be coming here quite often!"
"Welcome, welcome. I'll treat you to a meal tomorrow, Mr. Lu. I happen to have a few celebrities under my management; I'll invite them over to meet you."
Although Mr. Du was a businessman, he was even more philandering, exuding a sleazy air typical of the entertainment industry. He patted Lu Feng on the shoulder and said, "A young talent like you is a perfect match for those female celebrities!"
"I'm not interested in dinner, and I'm not really interested in female celebrities. I just want to invest in a film. What's your company been up to lately? Do you have any movies currently in production?"
Lu Feng suddenly remembered something. How could he have forgotten about making movies, such a lucrative business? Most importantly, he knew better than anyone which movies were making money.
"Currently, I'm working as a singer, and I also have a few films in production, one of which is called 'King of Beggars,' a Stephen Chow film." Mr. Du smiled at Lu Feng and asked, "Mr. Lu, are you interested?"
It's more than just being interested.
I'm so interested!
"Can we get more investment for this film?" Lu Feng asked, staring at him.
"This..." President Du hesitated. The film was almost finished, and the release date was just around the corner. It didn't seem like a good time to increase investment.
However, out of respect for Lu Feng, he nodded and said, "Then let's add a little more. How about Mr. Lu invest one million? That would be about fifteen percent."
If Lu Feng remembers correctly, the box office of "King of Beggars" was more than 40 million, which is one million to five million!
"OK!"
Lu Feng and President Du exchanged pleasantries and business cards. They talked a lot about the current state of Hong Kong cinema, noting that it was the most glorious era for Hong Kong films, with countless big-name stars emerging.
Lu Feng felt that he could let the company go into the entertainment industry, which would solve the problem of funding difficulties. Although he had money now, it was just a drop in the bucket in terms of long-term R&D investment.
Everyone went back to their respective homes. Lu Feng arrived at the villa late at night and couldn't sleep while sitting on the observation deck. Li Fang was still giving her report for the day.
"President Lu, did our financing go smoothly?" Li Fang asked as she walked over with a report in her hand.
"It worked!"
"How much money was raised, and how much equity was given up?" Li Fang said awkwardly, "It wasn't me asking, it was the finance department."
"Just say you don't know for now." Lu Feng was a little tired, so he waved his hand and told her to get some rest.
After two days of rest, the once bustling Hong Kong suddenly quieted down. Tang Zhongren stopped causing trouble, and major financial companies returned to their usual routines. The financial banquet was held as usual on Saturday and Sunday.
Only Su Yourong was very unwilling. She didn't know if Lu Feng had gotten the money or not. She sat on the edge of the bed smoking, looking very lonely. Sometimes she really wanted to strangle him, but sometimes she hated how cruel this man was.
“Honey, I want to shower with you!” came Mr. Chen’s voice from inside the bathroom.
Su Yourong sighed, cursed "pervert," quickly stubbed out her cigarette, and said, "Honey, I'm here."
As she spoke, a smile spread across her face. She took off her clothes one by one, and her slender feet stepped into the spacious bathroom.
