Chapter 218 Drawing a Cake [Part 2]

Eric was sitting in the office with a painful expression on his face. He was clutching his stomach, looking very uncomfortable.

"Aren't you feeling well? Did you eat something overnight? The mosquitoes here are really terrible, and I suffered a lot when I first came here." Ellis poured him a glass of cold water, and Eric smiled wryly. Shaking his head, he drank a little, and the pain seemed to have eased.

In fact, this is a psychological problem. When Eric knew that the next person to be duped was Juan, a prominent figure in Illian City, he felt unbearable stomach pains.

Is Juan deceitful? There is no tycoon in this city who is kind. Juan was just a boiler burner at first, and his job was to provide hot water for some construction sites. There are many workers on the construction site, and the work is heavy. They sweat profusely every day. If you don’t wash your body at night, it will be difficult to fall asleep, which will affect the work of the next day. The workers were not as fastidious as they are now, and there were no workers' unions to fight for their rights. Most workers lived in makeshift rooms.

Foot odor, sweat odor, and various body odors test everyone's nerves. Later, the foreman made a request to the developer that each worker should at least take a hot bath before going to bed every day, so Juan got this job. Each bucket of hot water only costs one penny, and one bucket of hot water can be used for two people to take a bath. There are more than 300 people in the entire construction site, and the daily income of more than one yuan makes him a fortune soon.

After having this money, his first thought was to run a business that can make money in the long run, rather than selling hot water, which depends on the construction period. After investigating many kinds of businesses, he set his sights on brewing and selling liquor. There are no sales restrictions on alcohol. Even if many people are not rich, as long as they have a little money in their pockets, they will spend it on alcohol. Although the profit of selling wine was not particularly high at that time, Juan took a fancy to this business at a glance.

He first worked as an apprentice in a workshop. After studying for almost half a year, he felt that he had mastered the brewing technology, so he bought some wine barrels privately, stole some raw materials from the workshop and tried to brew wine at home. It may be because he did not keep it secret enough. The owner of the workshop found out about it. After scolding Juan severely, he kicked him out, and notified all the bars of Irian at that time about Juan's behavior. , Even if he brewed wine, no one would buy it.

Faced with such a result, Juan was unwilling to accept it. After more than a month, the owner of the workshop drowned in a wine barrel due to an accident. Juan used the money he had saved and his relationship with some foremen to forcibly He bought the workshop and established Juan's dominance in the brewing industry in Illian. He adopted a series of overt or covert means and became the largest supplier of alcohol and beverages in the Illian region.

Although there are still some workshops, his position can no longer be shaken, and the market share of his products in the Illian region has exceeded 80%. In fact, he can easily get the other 20%, but he understands a truth, if he earns all the money himself,

Then it's time for him to be history. So he reserved 20% of the market for those workshops to compete with each other, but he sat firmly on his throne.

Such a guy, what is the difference between cheating him and courting death? Whether it was the fierce and decisive Juan in the past, or the kind Juan now, it was not something that a little guy like Eric could offend, but the problem now was that he had to offend Juan.

Du Lin and Juan came hand in hand. If he hadn't considered that he would die if he said a wrong sentence, Eric felt that it was better to tell the truth. During the discussion, his expression was always stiff, as if he was absent-minded, and Juan had no doubts about this. If one day someone came to say that he wanted to buy his property, he would not be able to resist this involuntary behavior. No matter whether the price given by the other party exceeded the total value of his property, he would not be happy, and he would also have a relationship with Egypt. Rick was very reluctant to do so.

In the end, Juan valued Eric's East Coast Entertainment Company at one million. This price can be said to be very face-saving for Eric. Everyone knows how much East Coast Entertainment Company is worth. Faced with such a price, Eric naturally couldn't resist. He quickly signed the contract and "sold" his shares in East Coast Entertainment to Juan. After Juan directly handed over the one million promissory note from the Imperial Bank of China to Eric, he politely asked him to leave. Sitting behind the chair at the desk, Juan patted the armrest of the chair with a smile on his face, "From now on East Coast Entertainment is ours, what are your plans next?"

Du Lin sat on the sofa outside the desk. He crossed his legs and took out a cigarette case from his pocket and took out a cigarette for himself. After taking a puff of smoke, he said slowly: "A little thing happened to my friend. So I came up with another plan." He took another breath and made a hissing sound, but Juan didn't press him to ask, he knew that Du Lin could say such a thing at such a time and on such an occasion, so he It must be meaningful.

After Du Lin took another puff of cigarette, he continued: "You know Illian Holiday, right?" Juan nodded and said yes, there was a lot of publicity about the movie Illian Holiday some time ago, of course he knew, " I also plan to make a color film to replace Illian Holiday, and we can also cooperate with the city hall, with the gimmick of the first color film, and with the sixteen theaters in our hands, there is no need to worry about Ms. Nassar not nodding. "

Juan agrees very much with what Du Lin said. The George family is a newspaper tycoon and the trust of this industry. They still hold three feature agency syndicates in their hands. No one can shake their status. But in the field of the film industry, they can only be regarded as powerful novices, and some people will even deliberately target them. But if there is the gimmick of the first color movie as a catalyst for the George family in the theater industry, it will definitely be a hit!

Despite all the good news, Juan still hesitated, "What if they don't want to? I think it's more likely that they will buy the source of this film from us at one time and play it themselves, or even change it. From a point of view, we have a greater need for them, because if there are not so many theaters that can play color movies, no matter how good the movies in our hands are, they will not be seen by people.”

"That's why we bought East Coast Entertainment." Du Lin casually stubbed out the cigarette butt in the ashtray, and moved his buttocks back, "In other cities in this state, we have to build theaters quickly, a city At least three to five movie theaters will be built in the entire state. The construction price of each movie theater includes the land, which is about 50,000 to 70,000 yuan. If we have two or three state theaters for negotiation Conditions, do you think the George family will cooperate with us?"

"As long as he nods, hundreds of movie theaters in these states will become the industry of the new company. He only needs to build the theaters in the north, and the theaters in the south will teach us how to do it. Spend less money and do the most things. , I don't think Mr. John will refuse."

"You should know that at the level of Mr. John, money has no meaning for him. What he seeks is a kind of political power! And we can help him expand his influence!"

Du Lin's words dispelled Juan's doubts very well. To be precise, Du Lin meant to establish his own system before the layout of the George family was completed, and even some places did not need to be built, as long as they had a look. up. When he and Du Lin held two or three hundred movie theaters in the South and at the same time they happened to hold the source of the first colored film, even if the George family had become a monopoly trust in the newspaper industry, they had to choose to work with him. , in collaboration with Durin.

As long as the tone of the tripartite cooperation is set, with the help of the tiger skin of the George family, the theaters under construction and those already built are mortgaged to the bank, and more funds can be drawn out for the construction of the theater immediately. Up to five years, after five years this new company will become the well-deserved No.

Juan's breathing was a bit short, this is not a castle in the air, this is a comprehensive plan that can be implemented, once it is implemented smoothly, his status, his wealth, his contacts and reputation will be several times, dozens of times and Hundreds of times!

"Are you sure?" He asked immediately, looking firmly into Du Lin's eyes.

Du Lin met his gaze without hesitation, "There is no problem at all!"

"Okay! Come up with a solution as soon as possible, let's do it together!"

Du Lin rubbed his fingers and laughed.

After sending Juan away, Du Lin returned to the first floor of the East Coast Entertainment Company. He didn't get out of the car, but told Duffer standing by the roadside through the car window, "You can send him away."

Erik's stage mission has been completed, and he should disappear. From here, he stole another one million cash from Juan, and Du Lin didn't feel any guilt at all, or felt any discomfort in his heart, because Juan was sorry for him first. It seems that Juan spent a million dollars to buy East Coast Entertainment Company, which is very rich. Do not want Du Lin to continue to pay, but it was clearly agreed before that the two of them would invest together, and Du Lin invested 200,000 and got 100% 10% of the shares, but Juan got the remaining 80% of the shares for a million dollars. In the future, this company will be decided by two people together, or will Juan have the final say?

Juan has Juan's little plan, so Du Lin will not show mercy when he stabs the knife!
