Linghu Zhu was driven mad by Xiao Zheng's condescending attitude.
He clenched his hands tightly, but there was nothing he could do. He did not even have the strength to say another word.
Yes. He had no choice.
As Xiao Zheng said, no one could offer such a high price except for Xin Ao, the biggest buyer. Even the rich and overbearing Madam Lin would not pay any attention to him.
Linghu Zhu was very displeased that he had obtained the highest price by humiliating himself. He was very displeased. But he knew that he was at the end of the road.
Taking a deep breath, Linghu Zhu pursed his lips and said, "I accept."
Xiao Zheng laughed.
He did not think that Linghu Zhu had a second choice.
The conditions he offered were indeed the best. Was Big Entertainment good? Did it have potential?
Excellent. It had great potential.
But there were not many that could really bring out the potential of Big Entertainment. Even Giant Peak Network did not have the confidence to take over. What's more, Giant Peak Network had long been in a state of disunity. It had not collapsed yet, but it was inertia. With the passage of time, Giant Peak Network was bound to go down the path of collapse. It would not lose its core competitiveness.
Xiao Zheng put down the teacup, stood up and said, "Young Master Linghu, I hope I will not let you down."
He stretched out his hand, waiting for Linghu Zhu to shake hands.
This was the etiquette after the negotiation. With Linghu Zhu's current mood and situation, he could choose not to shake hands. But if he did so, he would appear very ungentlemanly. It was worth mentioning that the whole thing was single-handedly caused by Linghu Zhu from beginning to end. Xiao Zheng was just going with the flow. Otherwise, he just wanted to hold the equity, not take over the whole thing.
Now, everything was settled. Linghu Zhu was out, and Xiao Zheng controlled the overall situation of Big Entertainment. Under the discussion of Xin Ao's senior management, Xiao Zheng, who wanted to keep a low profile, had to hold a comprehensive meeting. The topic was: the future of Big Entertainment.
The former Big Entertainment was carried out under the operation of Linghu Zhu. Xiao Zheng and other business giants only added fuel to the fire. But now, the big boss behind him was standing in front of the stage. Moreover, the star-studded lineup at the press conference was far more powerful than the first conversation between the three giants.
Other than Linghu Zhu, who did not attend, Shang Yao was the first to go up the stage to support. After that, including Ye Fenghuang, the old monk, Lu Dashan, Ye Canghua and other big shots, they all stood up for him. Even Wall Street's top magnate Gandalf made a rare appearance.
Just this scene alone was enough to make countless people fantasize about the future of big entertainment.
What really set the tone for this press conference was the speech of the Deputy Minister of the Ministry of Culture, as well as the strong support for the big entertainment project.
The Deputy Minister of Culture might not be the top official in Xiao Zheng's social circle. But his appearance itself meant that the country recognized the big entertainment project.
With the support of political resources, how could Big Entertainment not grow bigger and stronger?
In front of the television, Linghu Zhu watched everything with a gloomy expression. Other than vexation, there was more hatred in his heart.
Big Entertainment was clearly his, but now it added a halo to Xiao Zheng. He hated Xiao Zheng for using his strength to bully the weak, and he was also extremely angry.
"Xiao Zheng, you will pay for this!"
Linghu Zhu punched the TV with a fierce look in his eyes.
… …
The press conference was over.
Xiao Zheng held a small VIP party. In addition to a table of heavyweights, there were also three tables arranged for reporters. Of course, those who were able to get a seat were definitely influential and credible media friends. As for those sideline reporters, they naturally had no chance to get involved.
Such a VIP party was an excellent opportunity for reporters to expand their network. If they could make friends with a big boss and establish a personal relationship. Then no matter where this reporter went in the future. There would be a vast future.
"Mother-in-law, why are you here?" After Xiao Zheng sat down, he smiled at Ye Yuhua on his left. "I heard from Big Uncle that you've been cultivating your body and mind recently."
"Son-in-law made such a big scene, as a mother-in-law, how can I not show my face and show my power?" Ye Yuhua smiled.
Xiao Zheng smiled awkwardly. "Mother-in-law, don't make fun of me."
The old monk heard this and said with a smile, "It's not. This was an extremely good thing. Once the Big Entertainment project is on the right track, you will have another card in your hand. And it is a trump card. "
Xiao Zheng gave the old monk a cigarette. The latter secretly lit it, not wanting to disturb the dining mood of his table mates.
"This is not how it was supposed to go. I didn't want to bring Big Entertainment over. But there is no other way. Xin Ao has invested too many resources in it. I can't watch Linghu Zhu mess up Big Entertainment, "Xiao Zheng explained. He felt a little awkward in his heart.
After all, this was the first time he snatched something from someone else. Even if he could pass this hurdle, there would be some obstacles in his heart. He was afraid that people would look at him with colored glasses.
"Don't worry." Ye Yuhua gently held Xiao Zheng's hand. "Business has always been a life-and-death struggle. If you are soft-hearted today, you may walk on the road to ruin tomorrow. Also — "
Ye Yuhua smiled and said kindly, "Linghu Zhu is indeed not capable of great things. Even if you don't think for yourself, you have to think for Miss Shang. "
Shang Yao saw that the topic was about her and quickly said with a smile, "Auntie Ye, you are too serious. I believe in Boss Xiao. "
Everyone laughed good-naturedly. The promotion ended smoothly.
After lunch, Xiao Zheng could imagine that at least 80% of the financial media would broadcast Xin Ao's attitude and progress towards Big Entertainment. As a star enterprise, Xin Ao's big move would even cause widespread discussion on the internet.
After returning to the company, Xiao Zheng immediately threw himself into the work of Big Entertainment's operation.
Because this project was extremely crucial, Xiao Zheng arranged a lot of capable people to personally execute it. He also fully supervised and strived to make Big Entertainment achieve the best results in the shortest time possible.
Overseas, it was also rapidly promoted under his control. The progress was very hot.
Time passed by quickly. In just three months, Xiao Zheng had already grasped the context of Big Entertainment and studied the overall promotion route with his subordinates. What's more, the first wave of IP, with the support of Xin Ao's strong financial support, was launched like a hot knife through butter.
Using the popular novel as a blueprint, it was first adapted into an anime, then a TV series, followed by a big movie and competitive game adaptation.
Xiao Zheng personally supervised and invested a lot of money and attention into each project. Once this wave was successful, it could even sell well overseas. Then, Xiao Zheng was confident that Big Entertainment would be spun off and listed. It would become another extremely powerful behemoth.
Of course, all of this was just an expectation. To achieve it, it would take at least three to five years, maybe even longer.
Moreover, during this period, Xin Ao would continue to inject resources into Big Entertainment, allowing it to complete its leap.
"So lonely."
With his arms behind his back, Xiao Zheng stood in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling window, his eyes filled with an avalanche of desolation.
