Chapter 140 Negotiation Failed
Chapter 140 Negotiation Failed
There are always some people who insist on inheriting the national quintessence and resisting the invasion of foreign culture.
Hou Jie reflected, "I don't have such great ambitions and abilities. In the face of the national trend, I am like mud and can be destroyed with one hand. Now that I am financially free, I have to find something I like to do."
"Artists at this time have real talent and knowledge. If you give them a chance, their ideas will surely be revitalized."
Hou Jie spoke highly of later dance music with Chinese characteristics and style, such as the Dunhuang Dance Music and the Evergrande Song and Dance Troupe. He believed that they not only embodied the aesthetic spirit and heroic spirit of the Chinese nation, but also were very consistent with the current social value orientation and public aesthetic needs.
If these elements can be further refined and sublimated, integrated into modern dance music, and supplemented with carefully designed gorgeous costumes and various ceremonial costumes, people can deeply feel the charm of traditional Chinese culture while appreciating the dance. Such an artistic expression will undoubtedly make people fall in love with it and be fascinated.
Hou Jie felt that if he failed to reproduce the splendor of later national style in this lifetime, his life would be lived in vain.
However, such a vision is not easy to realize. It requires huge capital investment for research and development, production and promotion. It also requires a large number of professionals to receive systematic training to ensure that the works can maintain their original artistic quality and successfully incorporate new creative elements.
Such a project cannot be accomplished overnight; it requires long-term persistence and unremitting efforts.
Hou Jie perked up and asked carefully, "Mr. Zhao, I wonder what step you are at now. Have you already raised all the investment?"
"It's like this. Now there are two investors who are willing to put up 2 yuan each. There is still a lot of money left. I am working hard to raise it. I will discuss and communicate with you once all the investments are in place."
Hou Jie asked, "How much investment do you need?"
Zhao Guangliang said, "After calculation, it is about 800,000 yuan, and there is no upper limit."
"Do you have a map of the area with you? I'd like to see it."
Zhang Guangliang carefully took out the draft from his pocket, his movements were gentle, his eyes were full of awe and cherishment for the draft. Then, holding the draft in his hand, he gave Hou Jie an in-depth explanation with great patience and detailed attitude.
Zhang Guangliang first pointed to an area on the map and slowly explained the size of the area in detail, including the dimensions and overall area of each part in the east, west, south and north, and the specific location of each boundary. He not only described the internal layout of the land, but also pointed out the distribution of surrounding vacant land, which areas were idle and waiting to be developed, and what areas were used for.
During the explanation, he also mentioned the surrounding neighbors, including their background, relationship with the land, and possible impact. Every detail was carefully considered and every key point was explained in detail, so that Hou Jie could fully and deeply understand all the details and background of the land.
Hou Jie nodded slightly to indicate his agreement, and then laid out a series of conditions that he had not yet fully expressed, as well as the deeper meaning behind them, asking the other party to listen carefully and pay close attention to his reaction.
Hou Jie's words were very domineering and decisive. "If you meet my conditions, I can provide all the funds, saving you the trouble of running around. We will discuss the rest in detail. If you cannot meet my conditions, please don't be offended."
Zhao Guangliang naturally did not dare to raise any objection and listened attentively.
"First, I don't agree with copying the nightclub model. I am very pessimistic about it and I can't invest any money in it."
"Second, I must have absolute say in this theater. How it is operated, how it is trained, what songs are sung, etc., must all be done according to my wishes."
"Third, after I become a shareholder, I will conduct three years of closed training for the girls. The area is too small, I need at least twice the area."
Zhao Guangliang was stunned when he heard this, as if he was struck by lightning. He looked at the other party in amazement, thinking: How is your way of negotiating business different from directly saying that I am the boss? If this is the case, I might as well sell the things to you directly, at least I can save a lot of trouble in the middle. He felt mixed emotions in his heart, and for a moment he was a little at a loss.
Zhao Guangliang directly refused, "Mr. Hou, I'm sorry I can't agree with you. If it's according to your point, it's better to sell it to you directly and you can be your own boss!"
Hou Jie shrugged indifferently. "Sure, how much do you want to sell it for?"
Zhao Guangliang was completely stunned by his series of jaw-dropping feats and could not help but feel extremely confused.
He recalled that the purpose of his trip was to seek investment opportunities, hoping to attract funds through the projects in hand to promote the development of his career, rather than being troubled by such a generous but sudden "theater buyer".
He explained anxiously: "I came to you to invest, not to buy my theater. If you buy it, where will I eat?"
This sentence not only means that he has lost his source of income, but also means that the life of the entire family will be in trouble.
What Zhao Guangliang carries behind him is the livelihood of his entire family, including the living security of the elderly, children and other family members, and all of this depends on this theater.
Therefore, when he faced such a rich man who seemed to have no regard for the feelings of others and squandered huge amounts of money at will, Zhao Guangliang's inner helplessness and anxiety were beyond words.
Are the rich people nowadays so inhumane? I have never encountered this among the people I interact with!
Zhao Guangliang's face was gloomy, and he was obviously unhappy, but he still tried to be polite. He stood up, bowed deeply to Hou Jie, found an excuse, and prepared to leave: "Mr. Hou, I'm really sorry, I have some personal matters to deal with today, so I can't accompany you. I hope you can understand."
Seeing this, Hou Jie immediately stood up and quickly caught up with Zhao Guangliang, with an earnest smile on his face: "Mr. Zhang, please stay! I have a humble request. I wonder if you can help me find out if there is a theater that is interested in selling? If you have any information, please let me know. I will reward you handsomely after the matter is completed."
"I don't know. I'll try to find out."
After Zhao Guangliang responded in a muffled voice, his face was gloomy, and he walked down the stairs step by step as if a dark cloud was pressing down on his head.
"Well, if we don't get the investment, we might even have another competitor."
He secretly felt sad about his bad luck today. He had heard that the people in Yongchang Grain Store had a very unique way of doing things, which could even be said to be a bit weird and strange.
Now that I have experienced this myself, I can only shake my head and sigh, feeling that I have truly broadened my horizons and gained a lot of knowledge today.
