The Rebirth of the Male God Starts From Playing Games

  Chapter 152 150. Come to Taipei to watch the rain in winter

Just two months ago, Jielun Zou won the Best Pop Music Singing Album Award at the 12th Bay Golden Melody Awards for his first album of the same name, "jay". , Was shortlisted for the Best Producer Award, and was nominated for the Best Composer Award at the 12th Taiwan Golden Melody Award for the song "Cute Woman" on the album.

  Of course, some of them are because of the connections of Brother Xian, but it is undeniable that Zou Jielun is still very talented.

   However, at this time, Jielun Zou, album sales can only be said to be average, and the reputation has not yet fully started.

   However, there are vague signs of fire.

  Because in various universities in the mainland and Bay Bay, including high school student groups, they like to play his music.

  Especially the song "Xing Qing", which has been widely spread.

  At the award ceremony, Zou Jielun solemnly thanked his mother and brother Xian. By the way, although Cao Yang did not show up because of his busy schedule, Zou Jielun still thanked him.

  It is precisely because of the investment of this mainland boss that he has sufficient production funds for his first album, and can make money to continue to produce the second album, which is inseparable from the father of the gold master.

  At the time, Zou Jielun said very emotionally, “Thank you, Brother Xian, for your kindness to me. As long as there is Wu Zongxian, then I will be Zou Jielun.”

  I can only say that the outcome of things is often not as good as people think.

  Two months later, Brother Xian was forced to sell Alpha Records because of financial problems.

  In a practical sense, Zou Jielun and Fang Wenshan are the only ones with real value in this company.

  As soon as this incident was reported, it immediately caused a big wave of exaggeration in the Bay Area. The news was captured by the media before the company was sold.

  Some paparazzi members directly blocked Brother Xian at the door, asking him whether he really wanted to sell Zou Jielun, as the rumors said.

  They didn't talk about Alpha Records, but directly said [Selling Zou Jielun], it really hit the nail on the head.

The media in Wanwan and Xiangjiang just like to pick things.

   Brother Xian immediately flew into a rage, "No, nothing, how could I sell him? Zou Jielun is the only singer who helped the company make money this year. Please don't spread rumors, please check things out before you come back, okay?"

  ……

  At 8 o’clock in the evening, Brother Xian met with Bomi’s boss, Cao Yang, in a Minnan restaurant.

  Cao Yang gave Brother Xian a bowl of chicken soup, then sat down and smiled calmly and said, "I heard Brother Xian is going to sell Alpha Records?"

   "Where is it!"

  Xiang denied, "Alpha is still making money now, how could I sell it."

Hey-hey.

  Cao Yang laughed in his heart. Brother Xian's rhetoric can't even be fooled by the media, how could he be fooled.

  Know that Cao Yang knows everything about the future.

  Originally, Brother Xian sold Zou Jielun earlier than it is now. As early as 2001, Brother Xian had sold Alpha to Haoledi for NT$300 million.

  How much is NT$300 million?

  Almost 69 million soft sister coins.

   is not too much for Brother Xian, but it is not too small.

  At least at this time, Brother Xian is willing to sell at this price, indicating that his psychological price should be lower than 300 million Taiwan dollars.

  Now Alpha has just started, and many companies are optimistic about it, but the most important thing is to be optimistic about its future development potential.

   "Ah... this way," Since Brother Xian was pretending to be confused, Cao Yang couldn't do it in person, but since Brother Xian was willing to eat out with him, it showed that he still had a certain friendship and willingness.

  Cao Yang smiled, "It's a pity, I actually like Zou Jielun's very much. If Brother Xian wants to sell him, it would be really a pity."

   "Hey...what's the use?" Brother Xian was half joking and half sighing, "Alpha is not doing business now. Only Jielun makes money. Maybe it will go bankrupt one day."

  Is this still pretending?

  Cao Yang thought it was a little funny.

  But when Brother Xian said this, he was actually quite clear.

   "Brother Xian, if, I mean if," Cao Yang asked tentatively, "If you really want to sell Alpha, can you give me priority?"

"Eh?"

Brother Xian pretended to look at Cao Yang in surprise.

   "But isn't Bomi making games? Why do you want a record company? Is it true that you want to help release records?"

"Hey, in terms of music, I really don't really understand it." Cao Yang said, "but I believe in Jielun's creative ability and Yang Junrong's operational ability, so as long as they are there, even if I don't understand, Alpha Records should have no problem. ."

   "But..." Brother Xian hesitated. In his heart, he still wanted to find a home for the Alpha Records brothers, at least in the music industry, right?

  If you don’t understand music, it’s really troublesome.

"Although I don't know music," Cao Yang continued, "but I know marketing, and we make games, we actually have to understand some music knowledge to some extent. A good game is like making a good movie. Music and sound effects must be seamlessly coordinated to have an effect."

   Brother Xian listened to him, but didn't answer immediately. He was probably thinking about something.

  In fact, although neither of them publicly said whether to sell Alpha, they are already discussing related details.

  "The mainland is a very promising market," Cao Yang continued, "Brother Xian may not know how much money Bomi games can make in one month."

   "Huh?" Brother Xian's eyes lit up.

   "It looks like more than 40 million." Cao Yang said.

  Mom! ! !

Brother Xian was taken aback.

   "So the game makes money like this?"

This is more money than making a record. Last year, Zou Jielun’s records sold only 270,000 copies. The profit brought to the company was about 10 million soft sister coins, and half of it was taken away by Bomi, and the rest was paid. To deduct taxes, in fact, Alpha's account has less than 3 million left.

"Well, what do I mean? Brother Xian, Bomi's operating conditions are very good, and the fund reserves are quite sufficient, there is nothing else, I can still provide money," Cao Yang said, "If you really take over With Alpha, at least I can spend money to make Zou Jielun run very well."

  He only talked about Zou Jielun. He didn't mention other singers. Brother Xian had a few words in his heart.

  Judging from the performance of Cao Yang before, this person is properly Jielun’s little brother, and it is reasonable to want to buy Zou Jielun.

  But Cao Yang doesn’t think he is a little fan. It’s true that Zou Jielun wrote very good songs. More importantly, the value that Zou Jielun can create in the future is amazing.

  If Brother Xian did not sell Zou Jielun back then, but instead held it for a long time, maybe his rate of return would be much higher than that of selling it to Holedi.

but……

  This kind of thing is hard to tell.

  In the face of interests, do people pay more attention to the huge funds at the moment to alleviate urgent needs, or bite their teeth and treat them as opening a black box, maybe there will be even greater surprises in the future?

   is hard to say.

  From the perspective of Brother Xian, Cao Yang can actually understand it.

   Brother Xian, who is very good at singing and variety shows, can also recognize people with his eyesight, but he has no luck in doing business. Basically, he opened a company and closed one.

  He has been a record shop, a restaurant, and LED lights...

  But most of them ended in bankruptcy.

  This year's brother Xian is very nervous about funds and has failed in business, so he will consider selling Alpha to others.

  In the end, I chose the company called Haoledi.

What kind of company is   Holedi?

  This company mainly provides karaoke-KTV box services. Each store of "Holedi" has an average of more than 80 boxes, which can provide various kinds of business gatherings, classmates gatherings, birthday parties and other services for different consumer groups.

In order to make money with Zou Jielun, this company had to release n albums and open n concerts a year. As Zou Jielun’s partner, Yang Junrong, who is also a teacher and friend, Yang Junrong firmly disagrees with this kind of squeeze. Fight.

  Yang Junrong himself said that these five years were the hardest five years in his life.

  So Cao Yang felt that it was better for Zou Jielun to follow him.

  Below Bomi, Cao Yang will not interfere with Zou’s development at all, and will provide him with a better platform.

  Of course, Zou Jielun’s potential is also the reason why Cao Yang did this.

  To know that the future Zou Jielun is the little king of Asia, and the value that can bring to Bomi is more than 300 million Taiwan dollars.

  ……

"My idea is like this," Cao Yang said. "If I can really buy Alpha, I still hope to rely on Brother Xian for help. The main reason is that I really don't have any friends in the music industry, only Brother Xian. Old acquaintances, if you are willing to build a bridge for me, I believe that with Bomi’s operational capabilities, Alpha will definitely be able to operate."

  In fact, it is false to say that you don’t have a heartbeat.

   Brother Xian had already had the idea of ​​selling Alpha.

  Holedi contacted him before, but he was also hesitant to sell it to Haoledi.

  Now I hesitate even more, because Cao Yang is a partner of Brother Xian anyway, and the production cost of Zou Jielun’s first chapter album was provided by Bomi.

  Unfortunately, the sales volume of the final album was not particularly good, and the failure to give Boss Cao a good rate of return made Brother Xian a little sad.

   "Hey, why are you so serious?"

   Brother Xian made a round-up, "Mr. Cao eats food and eats food."

  ……

  After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, everyone drank a little bit and was in a slightly drunken state.

  There are no other people at the dinner table today, only Cao Yang and Brother Xian.

  The little secretary was arranged by Cao Yang to wait in the hotel. After they finished their meal, they asked Zhuang Yurou to pick him up.

  So the door is closed, and no third person can know the conversation here.

Brother Xian did hesitate a bit, and said some plausible things through Jiu Jin, "Mr. Cao, I said if, if I really have to sell Alpha one day, how much are you willing to pay?"

  Cao Yang smiled in his heart.

  So it’s right to talk about business at the wine table. Once you’re full of food and drink, people’s desires will be revealed, and they will be closer to each other, making it easier to talk.

  There are some big guys who like to talk in Footwashing City, which is another kind of trust relationship.

  Cao Yang is married now, and can't come to that.

   "Well... this..." Cao Yang pretended to think deeply, "I can add a 50% premium to Alpha's valuation."

  Cao Yang did not say specific figures.

  This is equivalent to throwing the problem back to Brother Xian in disguise.

  What do you think of Alpha’s valuation now?

  A 50% premium is already an incredible number.

  This can fully express Cao Yang's own sincerity.

Brother Xian was taken aback for a moment, but he didn't expect to get such an answer.

   "So Brother Xian, how much do you think Alpha can be valued now?" Cao Yang asked rhetorically.

"this……"

  Brother Xian is a little bit difficult. It is not good to say that it is high, and it is not good to say that it is low.

  Now according to market valuation, even if the premium is 50%, it is certainly not as much as NT$300 million.

   But if it is less than this number, there is no good deal to open there.

   Brother Ke Xian wondered, can't you just spread the amount of money Holedi gave yourself?

"Brother Xian, if you feel embarrassed, so let me quote a price, you see if it is appropriate." Cao Yang said with a smile, "I am very optimistic about Jielun's potential, but as you said, the entire Alpha Records In the company, only Jielun makes money, and other artists are also a burden to me...

  Considering, if Brother Xian really wants to sell Alpha, I’m willing to spend NT$310 million. What do you think? "

"Eh?"

Brother Xian suddenly raised his head.

  He looked around and made sure that there was no one else.

  I don’t know why. Hearing the number reported by Cao Yang, Brother Xian was a little bit frustrated.

  This is too coincidental, right?

  Is Cao Yang any spies here?

  How can we estimate the quotation from Haoledi so clearly?

   just happened to be a little bit more than Holledi.

   really makes the scalp numb.

   "Hey...It's really interesting." Brother Xian shook his head, "Come on, Mr. Cao eats food."

  ……

  Today is just the first time to have a meal. By the way, I will talk about Alpha and see if I can reach my intention.

  Cao Yang did not expect to achieve it all at once.

But when he came out of the hotel after eating, Cao Yang helped Brother Xian and said, "Brother Xian, I may stay in Taipei for three days. If Brother Xian is not busy these days, you can find me to eat at any time. "

  What Cao Yang said was that if you want to have a face-to-face meeting, then within three days, otherwise I will fly back to the capital, and if I meet again next time, I have to make an appointment on the phone in advance.

  Look at what you think.

   "Hahaha, you must be sure, Mr. Cao, you are really too polite." Brother Xian stretched out his hand, trying to hold Cao Yang's shoulder, but found that he was short in his head, looking very funny with his hands hooked.

  ……

  Farewell to Brother Xian, Zhuang Yurou also rushed over from the hotel after sending him to the car.

  When the little secretary came to pick up Cao Yang, it was drizzling.

  Zhuang Yurou puts an umbrella on Cao Yang and prepares to send him to the car.

  Cao Yang raised his head, watching the drizzle flying in the sky with drunken eyes.

  Dry rain, like ice like fog, reveals brilliant colors under the light.

   "No wonder I have to come to Taipei to watch the rain, Taipei in winter is really beautiful."

  ……
