Chapter 535 Investment

Liu Huaxing somewhat underestimated his own movies. Although May 1st is the peak time for watching movies, the popularity of movies also has an upward curve. So although the box office in the first two days was only 80 million, the box office for the week has exceeded 500 million. According to this momentum, it is safe to say that the final box office will exceed one billion.

In view of such a hot box office, the theaters immediately decided to extend the one-month release period to three months.

At the same time, major websites have also started snapping up the copyright of the movie, planning to sell the movie on the website in a membership-based way after the three-month release period ends.

As for how much income he could get in the end...Liu Huaxing actually didn't want to worry about it anymore, because it was definitely enough for him to carry out his plan. Even he does not need to continue to invest, it is enough to complete his various plans. However, the investment still needs to be invested. Taking advantage of the money in hand and the popularity of the movie, Liu Huaxing plans to negotiate the investment before June.

After the May Day holiday, Liu Huaxing drove Yang Xiaoxiao to the company as before.

As soon as he arrived at the office, just as he was sorting out the items on the table, Zhang Hui opened the door and came in.

"Congratulations, Ah Xing." Zhang Hui said with a mysterious smile, "The movie is really a hit and a hit."

"It's not bad, the key is that there are too many bad movies in the same period." Liu Huaxing said with a smile.

"Then, what do you think of the gamification of this series?" Zhang Hui rubbed his hands and smiled, like a wretched uncle who was about to strike up a conversation.

Liu Huaxing couldn't help but frowned slightly: "I think... let's do a market survey. You must be more accurate than me in judging whether this series has the value of adapting games. But if you ask me if I have any ideas... ..."

As he said that, Liu Huaxing shrugged his shoulders: "If you have the intention of adapting this, I can come up with a complete planning plan. However, let's do a good job with the game at hand first, and then consider the next game Coincidentally, during this period of time, you can also do a market survey based on this goal, and then talk to the higher-ups about this project.”

"It's settled." Zhang Hui snapped his fingers and said, "I'll go talk to my superiors today and ask them to do a market survey to find out the current popularity of this series. Then evaluate the commercial value and come back to talk to you. "

In fact, Liu Huaxing knew that the result was absolutely certain. After all, the "Royal Dragon" series has completely become the current leading craze, and He Li has received many cooperation requests from directors, and wants to cooperate with him on sequels and derivative works. It's just that Liu Huaxing hasn't prepared the script yet, whether it's a TV series or a sequel, he has no plans for the time being.

The key issue now is that the story line in "Yulong: Reverse Scale" is already perfect, and the enemies are also very powerful, with elite killers and mercenaries from all over the world. It is difficult to surpass the plot after this. Therefore, Liu Huaxing does not plan to continue to create sequels to the series, but derivative works can be considered. After all, with so many protagonists, it is still possible to combine some of them to create a work.

When the future is free, Liu Huaxing may think about it.

After Zhang Hui went out, Chen Ye knocked on the door and came in after a while. He and Liu Chang are the few people in the studio who know that Liu Huaxing is the screenwriter of the "Royal Dragon" series.

"Did you make a lot of money this time? The box office is 500 million in a week." Chen Ye teased, "Find a place to celebrate?"

"I've already celebrated with my wife, and it's actually not a big deal." Liu Huaxing said with a smile, "But to remind you, prepare the funds. Within this month, I will talk to the founder of the 'Dog Shed' platform. Get in touch, and I’m ready to invest in their platform. I found out some time ago that Guo Zhiwen’s funding gap is about 20 million.”

"I see. I should be able to get about five million now. If I mortgage something for a loan..." When Chen Ye said this, Liu Huaxing interrupted him and reminded: "Never invest in this matter." If you choose to fight with your back against the wall, you have to give yourself a way out. Make sure that even if you lose all the money, you can still live a life without worrying about food and clothing."

"But I never lost money following you." Chen Ye said with a hint of teasing.

Liu Huaxing was silent for a while, and then suddenly mentioned an unrelated matter: "I took my family to Ming'an City to play, and went to the casino at that time. Then...you know, I won at that time About a hundred thousand. Do you think it’s luck? Maybe. But you are also a college student, and you should know that gambling is actually a kind of statistics.”

As Liu Huaxing said, he spread out the reports one by one on the table: "Leaving aside the factors such as the psychology of playing with each other, the rest is basically the knowledge of statistics and probability. Look at the dealer's cards, and then look at the idle cards, and then calculate the probability. The casino also has their own calculation formula, as long as there are enough gamblers, the casino will never lose money."

"Hmm... I've heard of this formula." Chen Ye nodded.

"The same is true for investing. It needs to be calculated by multiple parties. How high the probability is and how much you bet, you will not lose. The simplest reason is that when you are not a spade flush or blackjack , don’t invest all your wealth in it.” Liu Huaxing reminded, “Because we are businessmen, not gamblers, and businessmen are after opportunities to make money steadily, and only gamblers will fight for that one percent. The probability."

"I see." Chen Ye nodded seriously, and then Liu Huaxing sighed in satisfaction.

Chen Ye is different from him. Liu Huaxing can read the file by himself, and it doesn't matter if he fails, but Chen Ye can't. Liu Huaxing himself has a goal, and his goal will be achieved soon, but Chen Ye is different. Chen Ye's goal may be much bigger than Liu Huaxing's.

Of course, Liu Huaxing will not stop Chen Ye, nor will he tell him the back-to-basics principle of "a person must learn to be content", so he can only remind Chen Ye not to "stud" blindly without his own guidance, so as not to In the end, he lost everything and fell into a desperate situation. Anyway, Chen Ye was supported by him alone, and he couldn't just watch Chen Ye fall into the abyss like this.

"That's the reason." Liu Huaxing replied, "The game is about to start internal testing during this period, so please pay attention to catch up with the progress. Try to complete the project before the time specified by the superior. During this period, you may have to work overtime appropriately. Remember Appease the people under your hands more, and don't let everyone get emotional. That's all."

"Understood." Chen Ye nodded, and then prepared to go out, "Is there anything else you want to order?"

"Oh, call my wife here for me." Liu Huaxing added, before Chen Ye closed the door and left. After a while, Yang Xiaoxiao poked her little head in, and asked with a smile, "Honey, are you looking for me?"

"Well, come in." Liu Huaxing waved his hand and smiled softly. Yang Xiaoxiao sat down beside him and looked at him with a smile.

"I didn't ask you to come in and play hooligans." Liu Huaxing scratched her little nose and smiled, "Remember to tell the people in the operation department later that we will start preparing game promotional videos and internal test accounts recently. In domestic forums Send it up and down."

"Well, is that all?" Yang Xiaoxiao asked with her beautiful eyes blinking.

"Also, you are so cute today." Liu Huaxing touched her head and said with a smile, Yang Xiaoxiao snorted proudly and said, "Of course, I am your little strawberry." After finishing speaking, Yang Xiaoxiao kissed He took a sip, turned around, closed the door and left.

Because the investment matter was imminent, and Liu Huaxing's bank card had more and more funds, so this Saturday after May 1st, he brought Yang Xiaoxiao to the bank to inquire about financial management.

Although the box office revenue has not yet arrived, Liu Huaxing still has nearly 40 million funds on hand, which is enough for him to complete the investment in the kennel. So he briefly explained his purpose to the manager of the bank in charge of the project.

When a business needs funds, there are usually several options, the first is a mortgage loan, and the second is financing. If the asset mortgage on hand is not enough to support a large loan, the company will choose financing, that is, those wealth management projects released by the bank, and seek funds from customers in the bank by cooperating with the bank.

Banks will naturally get some commissions after customers purchase wealth management projects, but these projects usually have some risks. The request made by Liu Huaxing and the project manager was to have an interview with Guo Zhiwen in person.

After learning about Liu Huaxing's specific situation, the bank's project manager agreed to help him contact Guo Zhiwen. After all, with tens of millions of funds, he can get a lot of commission.

And on Sunday, Guo Zhiwen personally chose a restaurant and booked a box, and then invited Liu Huaxing alone to have a formal interview to show his sincerity. Liu Huaxing naturally brought Yang Xiaoxiao and two other investors, Chen Ye and Hao Qian.

The reason why Liu Chang was not brought along was because on the one hand, Liu Chang didn't have that much money on hand, and on the other hand, Liu Chang was not suitable for these investments. Liu Chang is an honest man, and he is more suitable for accumulating wealth in that down-to-earth way.

What's more, Liu Chang is already satisfied with the status quo. He is different from Chen Ye. In terms of personality, he is more like Liu Huaxing, without much ambition. Now there are several million in the bank account, and the relationship with Dong Yue is going smoothly, he is already very satisfied.

"You must be Mr. Liu Huaxing, right?" Guo Zhiwen was different from the others. He was not surprised at Liu Huaxing's youth, but he immediately identified him from Chen Ye and him, "Although you are young, you You have a calm and mature temperament. It is no wonder that you became the project director of Wenyi Game Company and the screenwriter of the "Dragon Yu" series at a young age."

"Oh, Manager Wang has already told you about my situation." Liu Huaxing smiled, took Yang Xiaoxiao and others to sit down at the table, and said with his fingers: "If this is the case, it will be easier. You already know the details of my side. I basically have everything you need, the copyright of the game company, the way to enter the entertainment industry, and the urgently needed...funds."

After speaking, Liu Huaxing turned to Chen Ye and Hao Qian who were behind him: "We can provide 35 million operating funds."

Liu Huaxing paid 20 million, Hao Qian gave 10 million, and Chen Ye paid 5 million.

"Now, I just want to know how many shares we can get in your company." Liu Huaxing said straight to the point, and he didn't want to go around the bush. Rather than saying that it is a business field, it is better to say that it is... a negotiation on a kidnapping case.

What Guo Zhiwen needs is in their hands, and Guo Zhiwen needs these things urgently. There is no room for maneuver. It depends on how much Guo Zhiwen is willing to exchange for these things.

Guo Zhiwen couldn't find a better collaborator than him, Liu Huaxing is still very confident about this.

First of all, in the live broadcast industry, if you want to live broadcast games, you must obtain the live broadcast copyright of the game from the game operating company. As the top three domestic giants, Literary Game Company also manages many popular online games. The "Dog House" live broadcast platform must purchase copyrights in order to broadcast live. Liu Huaxing can better purchase these games at a more reasonable price. The copyright of the live broadcast, and even the exclusive right to broadcast the event in the future, which is of great benefit to the competition of the live broadcast platform.

Secondly, apart from the game anchors, the rest of the anchors, whether they are doing outdoor, eating, broadcasting or entertainment, their ultimate goal must be to enter the entertainment circle, not to mention acting in movies, at least they have to appear on variety shows to be regarded as transformation. And Liu Huaxing? The screenwriter of the current popular series "The Dragon", if he just writes a derivative work of "The Dragon", he can arrange more than a dozen actors and directors, and many directors are willing to cooperate with him, which is simply the dream thigh of an entertainment anchor.

Finally, funding. At present, Guo Zhiwen's funding gap is 20 million, but Liu Huaxing provided 35 million, which is more than all their existing funds. Who doesn't want more money? Everyone knows the reason why more money makes things easier.

"Well, Mr. Liu is indeed a straightforward person." Guo Zhiwen nodded, "However, the matter of shares is not up to me alone, but to be discussed with other founders of the company. The conditions you provided are indeed what we urgently need. Yes, but I also hope that you can know that even without these, I also hope that the company is our own company."

As the founder of the company, it is normal to have this concern. The reason is very simple. Liu Huaxing provided too much funds. If you want to count the shares, Liu Huaxing, Chen Ye, and Hao Qian hold more than 50% of the shares. As a result, other people have too few shares. So much so that the company's right to speak is completely dominated by Liu Huaxing.

And in this way, the kennel is not actually Guo Zhiwen's platform. Although he is the founder, the decision-making power for all matters related to the company is in the hands of their three major shareholders, and as a founder, he will naturally not allow this.

Generally speaking, the founders will hold about 30% of the shares in their own hands so that they have the right to speak when there are differences of opinion, and outsiders will not hold more than 30% of the shares in the hands of a single person.

"It's easy to say, I can reduce the investment funds appropriately." Liu Huaxing said while holding his chin, "But I believe that conditions other than funds are still very attractive to you, right? Let me hear your price tag?"

"Well..." Guo Zhiwen pondered for a while, and then replied: "I hope you can give me some time for the fund. I believe that after you join, I can get more financing from other people. At that time , I will give you a reasonable share based on the total funds. As for your other conditions... I don't know, are you interested in joining our company's board of directors?"

"The board of directors?" Liu Huaxing suddenly fell into deep thought: Do you want to agree to this condition?

A company has a shareholders' meeting and a board of directors, which are similar in that everyone has voting rights, but the difference is that the board of directors can make decisions on the company's operations and internal management, while the shareholders' meeting can only vote.

For example, the board of directors can discuss to develop the company overseas, but the shareholders' meeting can only choose to approve or reject the project after the board of directors launches the project. To put it bluntly, the board of directors is the company's internal employees, while the shareholders are pure investors.

If Liu Huaxing joins as the board of directors, then the company is his own company, and it is reasonable for him to contribute to marketing. But to be honest, Liu Huaxing didn't want to be a member of the board of directors, he didn't want to worry about it, he just wanted to sit and wait for the money.

"With all due respect, I'm just here to invest. I don't want to interfere with your company's management at all." Liu Huaxing said simply and clearly, with a very clear meaning: I just want to sit and wait for the money. As for making money, you worry about it yourself.

However, considering the resources Liu Huaxing had at hand, it was certainly impossible to give Guo Zhiwen for nothing. Otherwise, he contributes money and effort, but takes the same share as other shareholders, why bother? Therefore, if Guo Zhiwen wanted this benefit, he could only provide Liu Huaxing with additional shares. Guo Zhiwen also understood this, so his eyes shifted to Yang Xiaoxiao.

"Is this your wife?" Guo Zhiwen asked curiously, and glanced at the ring on Yang Xiaoxiao's hand.

"Oh, this is my fiancee." Liu Huaxing took Yang Xiaoxiao's hand and introduced, and Yang Xiaoxiao waved her hand with a smile.

"In this case, to show my sincerity, no matter how much the company raises in the end, I am willing to donate 3% of the shares to your fiancée." Guo Zhiwen asked tentatively, "I don't know what you think?"

To put it bluntly, the other party wanted to give him 3% of the shares for nothing. But in the end, their total shares will still not exceed 30%, the difference is just how much money Guo Zhiwen will take from them.

Under normal circumstances, one might feel that the 3% of the shares, based on the current financing of the dog house platform, is at best one or two million yuan, and it is really not worthwhile to exchange Liu Huaxing's network. But in Liu Huaxing's eyes, it looks different, because he knows that in the next few years, the market value of the kennel will skyrocket dozens of times, reaching as much as two billion.

It has nothing to do with how much they invest. Even if they only invest one million, the final 30% of the equity is still calculated according to the stock price at that time, so 3% is not a small amount.

"Okay." Liu Huaxing thought for a while and replied, "If that's the case, then I'll wait for your news."

"Ah, that's great." Guo Zhiwen seemed to heave a long sigh of relief. He probably didn't expect it to go so smoothly, so he greeted him: "Come, come, let's have a good drink today!"

"No, no, no, I came here by car. You don't have to be polite, I'm just cooperating normally." Liu Huaxing explained.

"Then, may I ask?" Guo Zhiwen probably couldn't bear it anymore, "You have so many resources at hand, logically speaking, you should have more choices, any live broadcast platform would be willing to cooperate with you, why would you What about me and my kennel platform?"

"Our family has a dog." Liu Huaxing said half-jokingly, and Yang Xiaoxiao also smiled: "It's true, Samoyed skewers."

"Ha!" Guo Zhiwen couldn't help laughing, "Then we are really destined, my family has a Shiba Inu."

"Just kidding." Liu Huaxing laughed, "There are two reasons for choosing to cooperate with you. First, I am optimistic about the live broadcast industry. After all, there is no live broadcast industry in China. If you want to make money, you have to be the first person to eat crabs , when this industry rises, everyone will follow suit and the competition will only become more and more fierce, and it will be difficult to make money at that time. As for the second..."

Liu Huaxing said, shrugging his shoulders: "I don't like the marketing strategy of Mao Xiaoyi, the founder of Cat House. His style completely abandons live broadcast content and focuses on cutting leeks, so I choose to cooperate with you. In my opinion, Putting money first and ignoring the content of the live broadcast is tantamount to pursuing the final score of the exam without considering the actual operation ability of the students, which is unrealistic."

"Is that so? Then, let me talk to you about the future of our company. Our plan is..." Next, while they were eating, Guo Zhiwen explained to him his future marketing strategy and plan.

In the end, the two parties successfully signed the contract. Liu Huaxing will eventually obtain 30% of the equity, but how much money to invest still depends on how much Guo Zhiwen can raise after that. In short, Liu Huaxing will not obtain more than 30% of the equity.

At this point, after eating this meal with Guo Zhiwen, the matter of Liu Huaxing's investment was settled in this way.

"Brother, is this really okay? With such a large sum of money, don't you want to know more about it?" After leaving the restaurant, Hao Qian asked worriedly on the way back.

Liu Huaxing could also understand her. After all, putting such a large amount of money in the hands of an outsider and letting him spend it for him would make everyone feel a little uneasy.

"Don't worry, I won't let you be sold by your parents. Since I chose this one, I have my reasons." Liu Huaxing patted her head and comforted her, "My style is like this. If you're ready, just make a move, there's nothing to hesitate about. Believe in my vision, if you lose in the end, I'll be responsible for the rest of your life."

"How are you going to be responsible?" Yang Xiaoxiao asked threateningly, holding his arm tightly.

"How else can I be responsible? Let's raise her for the rest of my life." Liu Huaxing nodded Yang Xiaoxiao's nose and smiled, "From now on, she will be the godmother of our two children, and our children will raise her when we grow old."

"Hmm..." Yang Xiaoxiao's beautiful eyes rolled around, "Alright then."

"That's what I said," Hao Qian laughed, "Even if the business doesn't lose money, I'm still your child's godmother!"
