Chapter 22
"Young Master Yang, Jin Youze, the representative of N.E.W Company, wants to meet with you. He is looking forward to your joining, but it is not easy to get a controlling stake. It is not easy for the Korean Ministry of Culture and Tourism."
Sitting on the Mercedes-Benz car heading to the golf course, Yang Cheng put the backrest down, half-lying and squinting to listen to Liu Jianjun's report.
"Well, I understand this. The key is the attitude of those filmmakers. These artists are very rigid. Would you like to introduce me, an outsider?" Yang Cheng sipped champagne comfortably.
Liu Jianjun chuckled, "I didn't want to at first, but now I can't help them. The pressure from the outside world is so great that they have to find a strong backer. It is a forced and helpless choice to go public. I secretly contacted several shareholders. , the attitude is relatively optimistic, these filmmakers are focused on how to make better movies, and are not interested in who will be the boss, as long as you don’t delay their filmmaking.”
Yang Cheng also laughed, "Hehe, that's not a problem. I bought the company and I didn't come to see it. The movie must be made, and it has to be done well. Otherwise, how can I make money? Then why are they hesitating now?"
"One is what I said before, I am worried that the official attitude will not approve it, and the other is that I still have doubts about your strength." Liu Jianjun's voice became smaller and smaller.
Yang Cheng opened his eyes, "What are you afraid of? I'm not a man-eating tiger. I can understand their worries. After all, it's a fact that Yuanshan's reputation in the outside world is not loud enough. How about this? I've been reading your collection these days. According to the information, the megabox theater line is now in the hands of an investment company in Australia. I will ask my grandfather to help buy it. You should register a company in Korea as soon as possible and buy it in the name of this company. The theater line is the biggest shortcoming of N.E.W. Now that I help them make up, it should be able to prove our strength."
"Of course that's enough, and with the support of the third largest theater chain in Korea, the new company will have the confidence to challenge CJ Entertainment and Lotte Film and Television. Then Young Master Yang, what's the name of the new company?" Liu Jianjun was ready. The next thing is to flatter, no matter what name Yang Cheng says, he just wants to applaud.
But Yang Cheng's casual sentence made him punch the cotton, which made him feel uncomfortable.
Yang Cheng doesn't know what he's thinking, he really doesn't care, the name doesn't matter at all, when you become famous, any name is a good name, and you won't be narcissistic to name it with your own name, Yang Cheng **Companies are full of idiots.
As for the money to buy the megabox, he is going to ask his father to borrow it. Dad is just using it to trick him, not to borrow it. Besides, he will not pay it back, and he will pay it back when the crude oil futures side makes money.
The car slowly slowed down and drove into the private boulevard of the golf club.
Today I was invited by Tony from Citibank, saying that I have something to talk about. The last time I suppressed Tairong’s loan, it was not a big deal, but it was a help. I have to remember this.
The car stopped in front of the golf club, and at a glance, I saw Tony leading two iconic Korean beauties coming out, and offered to help Yang Cheng open the door.
"Jason, it's been half a month since we last parted, right? Judging by your look, the matter is resolved?"
Yang Cheng got out of the car and hugged Tony friendly, "Things went relatively smoothly, thanks to your help, let me have a drink together when I have time, I would like to thank you."
"You're too polite, Jason, I consider you a friend." Tony pulled close with feigned displeasure.
Yang Cheng felt goosebumps all over the floor, where did he meet friends? But he couldn't refuse, so he forced a smile to change the subject, "Tony, you didn't ask me to come just to play ball, did you?"
Tony put his arms around Yang Cheng's shoulders, beckoned to the two beauties, pointed to one of them with straight black hair and introduced, "This is Hannah, a well-known model, of course she doesn't just play ball, I have something to do Please, don’t worry, let’s play two strokes together.
But I heard that Mr. Yang's skills are quite good. "
It seems that after the last time, Tony investigated Yang Cheng very clearly. Yang Cheng is not humble. In this event, after a period of special training, it is not a problem for him to win medals as a professional athlete, and of course he does not need to rely on this to make money.
Not pretentious, he hugged Hannah's soft waist, "Hello, do you speak English?"
"Hi Mr. Yang, I can speak English." Hannah said with a clever smile as she pinned her hair behind her ears.
Tony thought about it.
A group of four walked towards the stadium under the leadership of Tony.
"Jason, let's play a game? Do you want to play something?" Tony took the driver handed over by the caddy and was about to serve, and suddenly turned to Yang Cheng and asked.
Yang Cheng looked at Hannah who had changed into a pair of flat shoes and said softly, "Hannah, what do you want? Don't hesitate to ask, someone will pay for it today."
Hannah was a little embarrassed. In fact, it was her first time to come out. Her face was still very thin. She pouted and looked at Yang Cheng with big eyes flickering in embarrassment. Laughing heartily, "Well, let's bet on a Hermès platinum bag, a limited edition, whoever loses will give it to the other's girlfriend, how about it?"
Tony had nothing to do, "No problem, it's settled, then I'll kick off first."
Yang Cheng's bold attitude made Yang Cheng's heart sink. He just wanted to try the chips prepared by Tony. Hermès' limited-edition platinum bag started at 100,000 US dollars. , the annual salary plus dividends will definitely not exceed 1 million US dollars. It is indeed not bad money, but you can just make a bet and give away 1/10 of your annual income. It seems that what you want is not small.
"Crack." With a crisp sound, the white golf ball was knocked out, and Yang Cheng's eyes moved accordingly. This is a small 9-hole course, and the par on the first hole is a par of 3, that is to say, the first shot It is best to hit the green for the tee shot, and only then can you have a chance to complete a par, or even a birdie, that is, one stroke below par. Of course, this is a requirement for professional players.
Tony's first shot was good. The ball should have stopped on the edge of the green and missed the green.
It was Yang Cheng's turn to tee off. With the help of Hannah's shy kiss, the golf ball landed steadily on the green, about 10 yards away from the hole. It inherited Yang Cheng's original technology, but it was still a little rusty.
"Wow... Jason, you should play professional games." Tony exclaimed, applauding.
"It's been a long time since I played, and I feel sick, Tony, the weather is nice, let's go over there?" Yang Cheng asked the golf cart to follow, and gave Tony a chance to talk about the business.
"Okay." Tony replied.
After walking for a while, I didn't shy away from the two female companions, and said directly, "I heard that there have been some changes in the senior management of Citibank Asia Pacific recently, and I intend to go further."
Tony has always had this ambition, but there is no way to get started. Since the last time Yang Cheng found Citibank President Mike Corbert to contact him directly through his grandfather, Tony found a ray of hope.
After that, he used his contacts in the United States to learn about Yang Cheng's strong background, especially Yang Cheng's grandfather Liu Muqian, who not only has a huge influence in the Chinese community, but also has a good reputation in the entire banking circle, so he arranged for a vice president of the Asia-Pacific region It's just a one-sentence question, but the key lies in why people help you.
Yang Cheng was also not polite, and said bluntly, "Why should I help you? It's not enough to rely on your help to suppress the loan application last time."
Tony hurriedly explained, "Of course, I didn't mean to reciprocate the favor. I just thought that you, Jason, also need your own people in the financial system. There are some things that you don't need to ask Mr. McCorbert for help."
These words tickled Yang Cheng's itch. He really felt that without his own connections, it would be troublesome to rely on his elders for everything. Seeing Tony's attitude as if he was going to take refuge in him, this was a good opportunity.
Moreover, Tony grew up in the United States. He is different from the native-born Bangzi. He has old-fashioned thoughts in his bones and values interests. As long as you can bring him benefits, he will not betray him. As for one day he collapses, you have no right to ask for it. If people continue to be loyal to you, you are your own waste, and you have no one to blame.
"Play first, give me some time to think." Yang Cheng held Hannah's hand and said to Tony.
Tony would naturally not force it, there was no rush.
On the putting green, Yang Cheng took the putter, carefully measured the distance, and mentally calculated the angle and strength. With a light push, the white ball drew a wonderful arc on the green lawn, and fell into the hole precisely .
"Birdy." The caddy congratulated happily. Generally, the bosses will give out bonuses for good shots.
Hannah rushed over like a swallow returning to her nest, and shouted oppa excitedly, and Yang Cheng's heart was trembling when she shouted. If you say that this Korean woman is really born with a coquettish attribute, she is very talented and unique in the world. one serving.
In the next few holes, I don't know whether it was Tony's water or poor level. Yang Cheng opened up the gap of 5 shots, and the suspense ended early.
Tony is also very manly and asked his subordinates to transfer a platinum bag from the Hermès Korean flagship store to give to Hannah. Out of the fire, the struggle between women, huh, huh. . .
After the game, they didn't go back to each house, but they were going to sit down, have something to eat, drink a drink and chat. In the clubhouse, Yang Cheng asked Hannah to follow Tony to order food, and he found a corner to call Yang Sen.
borrow money!
South Korea is 14 hours faster than New York. It is now more than 11:00 noon, and New York is more than 9:00 pm. It should not have a rest.
The phone rang a few times before being picked up, "hello..."
"Dad, where are you at the company?" Yang Cheng changed his hand to hold the phone.
"No, I'm going to watch a movie with your mother at home, what's the matter?" There was a burst of chatter on the phone.
"It's quite leisurely. I have something to do. I want to ask you to borrow some money. I want to buy a movie theater chain in Korea. I don't have enough funds. I can repay you at the end of the month." Yang Cheng was not embarrassed to ask, and told herself Dad is still polite.
"Okay, how much do you want?"
Yang Cheng originally wanted to say 50 million US dollars, but he was afraid that it would not be enough, "80 million, is that convenient for you?"
80 million US dollars is not a small number. Americans seldom deposit large amounts of cash in the bank, which is not enough to pay taxes. Even cash giants like Microsoft and Apple will not put money in American banks.
"When do you want it?"
"About a week, of course the sooner the better."
On the other end of the phone, Yang Sen thought for a while, and his mother's voice came out from time to time, "I'll give you 100 million. Your mother sponsors 20 million, and you don't have to pay it back. I'll be your parents supporting your career."
"Big atmosphere!" Yang Cheng grinned, regardless of whether his parents could see it or not, Xu Kong gave a thumbs up and shouted.
