Chapter 545: Investment Cooperation
Tao Zhiwei drove to Yu Zhan's veterinary hospital and interviewed him directly.
With Bai Ying's introduction, Yu Zhan just hired two new veterinary assistants yesterday. His new shop now has a total of five people, including him, and he finally doesn't have to be so busy anymore.
Tao Zhiwei had called Yu Zhan before arriving, but Yu Zhan didn't know what he wanted to talk to him about.
The two met in a coffee shop near the pet hospital. Both were very busy, so Tao Zhiwei stated his purpose straight away.
Yu Zhan's first reaction was the same as He Lushen's. He was surprised that Tao Zhiwei would set his sights on the entertainment company. However, he thought one step further than He Lushen. Tao Zhiyao's dream was to become a director, and she has now stepped half a foot into the entertainment industry. Is Tao Zhiwei planning to pave the way for his sister?
Yu Zhan naturally thought of Liu Lan. Liu Lan was also developing in the entertainment industry. She made many friends and offended some people. There must be people who secretly disliked her. She would definitely encounter more difficulties and obstacles in the future. Although He Lushen was willing to protect Liu Lan, he also had his own difficulties, such as the difficult Fu Feiqian, such as his father's restricted authority, and the Huaguang executives who were eyeing him covetously.
Living alone these years, Yu Zhan knows a truth well - it is better to rely on yourself than on others, even friends can be unreliable sometimes. Instead of relying on He Lushen, it is better to buy an entertainment company and become Liu Man's biggest supporter.
Seeing Yu Zhan deep in thought, Tao Zhiwei knew that he was persuaded by him, so he did not disturb him and let him think independently for a while. An investment of over 1 billion is not something that can be done on a whim. And he only talked to He Lushen and Yu Zhan about this matter after various research and careful consideration.
The reason why he didn't consider bringing Yu Zhan in at the beginning was because he knew Yu Zhan's problem - he hated being watched and stared at for a long time in the crowd. As a leader of a company, this was inevitable, and the major shareholders also had the decision-making power. So Yu Zhan had money but didn't set up his own company, and rarely invested in other people's companies. He held a gold brick, but was as conservative as a miser.
...
...
Yu Zhan himself is also aware of this. This is the cowardice engraved in his bones, or it may be the shadow of childhood that cannot be dispelled. Over the years, he has always used this as an excuse to shrink in his own little world with peace of mind. Anyway, he has more money than he can spend in ten lifetimes, so why should he work so hard? Wouldn't it be nice to be a veterinarian, run a small pet hospital, and live a relaxed life?
But he met Liu Lan, and watched Liu Lan working hard. He was not from the entertainment industry, so he could not intervene and was just like a bystander. Thinking of this, his idea of one person eating and the whole family not being hungry was too selfish. He could not wait until Liu Lan got a head injury and was bleeding before trying to remedy the situation, because it would be too late then.
Moreover, the many disputes he encountered while running the small pet hospital over the past year made him realize that the comfortable life he pursued could be easily broken by certain people. Only by holding power in his hands can he protect himself and the people he wants to protect.
Maybe he is not powerful enough to allow Liu Lan to do whatever she wants in the entertainment industry, but he can prevent others from doing whatever they want to her!
Yu Zhan said to Tao Zhiwei, "I agree to cooperate with you to acquire Xinghe Films, but I have no experience in managing a company."
"I don't have any experience managing an entertainment company," Tao Zhiwei said. "I imagined that if two outsiders like us were to run Galaxy Film, even if we invested billions, the company would still be doomed to bankruptcy due to poor management. So I don't plan to acquire the company in full. I will leave a portion of the shares to its vice president Qiu Jing and let her run the business. She will be in front of the scenes, and we will be behind the scenes."
"Qiu Jing is a bit stubborn," Liu Lan once told Yu Zhan. She offended Qiu Jing simply because she asked her for her salary. And from Qiu Jing's behavior of asking Yang Huayue for compensation for breach of contract, it can be seen that this woman is not easy to get along with.
Tao Zhiwei certainly knew that Qiu Jing was not an easy person to deal with. "I investigated Qiu Jing's background and history of success. Apart from some personal factors, if we only look at her ability, she is the producer of the outstanding TV series and movies produced by Xinghe Film and Television in recent years. She is very accurate in choosing scripts and roles and rarely makes mistakes. Your girlfriend and Tang Tu were both discovered by her. Perhaps this is due to her keen intuition as a woman. Being too profit-oriented is her biggest shortcoming, but if she is a manager who makes money for us, then putting profit first is tantamount to being her biggest advantage."
