I just want to copy books quietly

Next, if the author of Azure Star's website hasn't created a system stream on a whim, Du Caige plans to bring the system stream again.

Let's talk about things later on.

He can't really hang around in the Internet field all the time.

There are so many subdivided genres on the Internet, and he can't always let him create it alone, he has to leave some soup for others.

Now he doesn't care about the false names of "the ancestor of the national art style" and "the ancestor of the tomb robbery style".

The fame meant nothing to him.

And if it comes to carrying so many classics that can be carried, many of them are planned to be made into movies in the future.

Such as Little Broken Ball, Three-Body Problem, Hyperion, etc.

If you are not afraid of death, you can also try to carry A Song of Ice and Fire.

It's just that when he crossed over, he didn't see the full version of A Song of Ice and Fire. The update by the old man George Martin is too buddhist.

But with his academic quality, it is not enough to complete this classic.

As for the ending of the TV series version, if he really dares to use this ending, he will probably be killed by angry readers.

So if he moves A Song of Ice and Fire, it is doomed to fail.

For the sake of your own life safety, let's take a long-term plan.

All things considered, he struggled in the network field until 2009 at most.

In the future, if he still has spare time to carry it, he will definitely make the physical publishing field his main battlefield.

Carry it by yourself, adapt it into a script by yourself, and then make it into a movie by yourself to create a closed loop of i.

Not so good.

The biggest difference from Portal.com is not the high quality but the small number of words.

And don't update anytime soon.

Even if it takes five years to write a volume, readers dare not speak up.

Just like old man George Martin, which reader would dare to scold him?

In fact, not daring to scold him is just a basic operation.

There are at least 1000 million people in the world who will pray for him to live a long life, can you believe it?

There are check-in posts almost every day on the post bar, wishing the old man to live to a hundred years without disease and disaster, and finish writing the song of ice and fire.

This is very magical.

Du Caige said that this was very much to his liking.

If you are in a good mood, carry a volume, and if you are in a bad mood, just leave it behind, and don’t care about it for three or four years.

There are too many things worth doing in life, and transporting is just one of them, so it shouldn't take too much time for him and consume too much energy for him.

After straightening out the Internet affairs, Du Caige originally planned to meet with Fan Youqiao to have a good chat about "WeChat".

But Duan Xiaochen told him that the company was going to have a meeting and there were very important things to discuss.

Du Caige had no choice but to deal with the company's affairs first.

This day, Duan Xiaochen drove to the community to pick him up and go to the company together.

"Going home this time, how are you getting along with your family?" Sitting in the co-pilot seat, Du Caige squinted his eyes.

"That's it." Duan Xiaochen sighed softly, apparently not wanting to mention it again.

Chapter 333 The Opportunity to Enter the Theater

Duan Xiaochen's family is in Sichuan.

Du Caige didn't know much about the specific situation of her family.Because she never mentioned her family.

But there are a few clues that allow him to make a rough guess.

First of all, Duan Xiaochen dropped out of high school before graduating from high school and came to Shanghai to work alone, selling alcohol in bars for a living.

At a young age, he tasted the warmth and coldness of the world and suffered a lot.

Girls in this profession, those who understand will naturally understand.

Over time, it is often involuntary.

If Duan Xiaochen hadn't met him, I really don't know what would have happened to her.

Maybe someday someone will pick up the corpse.

Maybe even become dusty.

In their line of work, there are not too many girls who have fallen into prostitution.

It can be judged from this that Duan Xiaochen's family is either very poor and cannot help her at all.

Or she had fallen out with the family.

But the other clues allowed Du Caige to confirm his judgment.

Duan Xiaochen seldom goes home.

Basically do not contact with the family.

In front of the media, she never talked about her family.

If her family is just poor, why is it like this?

Duan Xiaochen is not a girl who hates the poor and loves the rich.

If her family is poor, she will definitely spare no effort to support her family.

Instead of being almost indifferent as it is now.

So Du Caige is basically sure that the relationship between Duan Xiaochen and her family is very bad.

Seeing that Duan Xiaochen was in a waning mood at this time, Du Caige couldn't ask any more questions, so he changed the subject: "Is that news true? Are you sure?"

"It's been confirmed."

Du Caige asked: "Have you exchanged opinions with them?"

He was referring to several top executives of the company and another executive director, Chu Jixiang.

"I have had separate phone calls with them. Now everyone's opinions have not been unified, so we have to hold a meeting to discuss."

"What are your opinions?"

Duan Xiaochen was obviously in a bad mood, and said quietly: "Do you have to talk to me about this now? We haven't seen each other for so long, can't we talk about something happy?"

Du Caige said apologetically, "I care too much about this matter. If you don't want to talk about it, let's talk about something else."

Duan Xiaochen cheered up and casually chatted with Du Caige, and soon became cheerful again.

When they arrived at Haikuo Building, after parking the car, the two talked and laughed and took the elevator upstairs.

Just arrived at the floor where the company's large conference room is located, when the elevator door opened, I saw Chu Jixiang standing at the elevator entrance.

He smiled slightly, and said in a stammering voice: "Good morning, both of you."

Du Caige stepped out of the elevator and looked at him: "Mr. Chu, are you here specially waiting for us?"

Chu Jixiang nodded: "I want to communicate with you two in advance."

Du Caige and Duan Xiaochen looked at each other and nodded: "Okay."

Chu Jixiang smiled and gestured for the two to follow him.

When he came to his office, he poured pure water for the two of them, and said straight to the point: "The most important topic of today's meeting is about the Starlight Cinemas. I want to reach an agreement with the two of you in advance not to vote. "

Du Caige's eyes were fixed: "Why?"

The "why" Du Caige asked at this time was not asking "why should we reach an agreement in advance", but asking the other party: why not vote for "Starlight Studios"?

He knew very well why the three executive directors had to reach an agreement in advance.

Because regarding the company's operations, including investment intentions, etc., several CXOs of the company also have voting rights.

CXOs are not marionettes.

This is also the rule established by Duan Xiaochen and Du Caige at the beginning of the company's establishment in order to prevent themselves from making wrong decisions and causing heavy losses to the company.

They don't want the company to be their voice.

Therefore, if several executive directors are determined to implement a certain plan, the three executive directors must first reach an agreement.

Chu Jixiang leaned against his desk and sat down for a little while. He said frankly, "I'm not optimistic about this investment."

Du Caige frowned, "I don't understand the specific situation yet, can you explain it to me in detail?"

Chu Jixiang raised his wrist and looked at his watch, "Okay, let me make a long story short. Starlight Studios belongs to Starlight Film and Television Entertainment Company. At present, there are 76 Starlight Cinemas in cities across the country, with a total of 383 screens."

"At present, we have a total of 2144 theaters across the country, with a total of 7335 screens."

"Starlight Cinemas occupies a total of 52 screens across the country. It is a small-scale theater chain. Of course, each of their theaters has a relatively large number of theaters. The average number of screens in each theater exceeds 5."

"Starlight Cinemas was built relatively early, and most of their theaters currently have aging broadcasting equipment and infrastructure that urgently need to be updated. According to the audit in the first half of this year, the current total value of the 76 theaters in Starlight Cinemas is about 568 billion yuan. This is a comprehensive valuation that takes into account equipment, decoration, and the location of the theater. This value is on the high side, because some of the businesses where the theaters are located are bought by the company.”

"According to the data released by Starlight Film and Television Entertainment, their company currently has a debt of 12 billion. Last year, their profit was 3100 million. It can be said that the benefits are good."

"Currently, there are three major shareholders in this company. The largest shareholder is Tianyi Entertainment, which holds 37 shares. The second largest shareholder is Dongfang Entertainment, which holds 24 shares."

"Oriental Entertainment?"

"Dongfang Entertainment is a company jointly funded and registered by Dragon TV and several companies. Its main business is investment, variety show production, film and television production, etc." Chu Jixiang explained.

After reporting the information, Chu Jixiang and Du Caige looked at each other, "The above is some basic information about Starlight Studios."

Du Caige nodded: "Thank you for letting me know. Then why are you not optimistic about this investment?"

Chu Jixiang smiled kindly: "Let me explain. On the one hand, Tianyi Entertainment and Dongfang Entertainment are going to sell their shares this time, but their asking price is relatively high. 61's shares are asking for 4 million yuan, and they also ask for The companies or individuals with this part of the shares bear the full 12 billion debts of Brilliant Stars. According to the valuation in the first half of the year, the actual value of these 61 shares is about 35 billion.”

"Of course, because theaters are very important to the development of our company, and the film market is generally optimistic. So if it's just a little premium, even if I take on the 12 billion debt, I won't be so strongly against it, because after all this It's a worthwhile investment."

"The key point is that, as far as I know, the equipment and various facilities of Starlight Studios are seriously aging, and a lot of money needs to be invested in renovation and equipment update in the near future. This is a sinkhole."

After finishing speaking, his eyes flicked back and forth between Du Caige and Duan Xiaochen, "So, can the two of you reach an agreement with me? Veto this investment intention?"

Du Caige pondered.

But Duan Xiaochen shook his head and said: "Don't look at me, I only listen to my brother."

He smiled sweetly as he spoke, and the two dimples were filled with honey.

Du Caige thought for a while, then raised his head and said, "I need someone to think about it quietly."

Chu Jixiang smiled awkwardly, got up and said to Duan Xiaochen: "During the National Day, they set up a leisure and entertainment room on this floor, you haven't seen it yet, have you?"

Duan Xiaochen glanced at him in disgust, and said weakly: "Well, I haven't seen it yet. Let's go and see it together."

After the two left the office, Du Caige took out his mobile phone and dialed Yan Yingzhen's number.

Yan Yingzhen quickly answered.

Her voice sounded quite pleasant. After Du Caige exchanged a few words about Caiwei with her, he asked, "Do you know about the Starlight Studios?"

"Chu Jixiang reported it to me. I knew about it, but I didn't go to find out more about it."

Du Caige was stunned for a moment: "I thought you asked him to persuade me not to invest in Starlight Studios."

"I asked him to persuade you, that's right."

"Why?" Du Caige was puzzled, "Since you didn't go into details, why do you think you shouldn't invest?"

"Because in this matter, there is obviously Tianyi Entertainment and Shen Jinsong's shadow. I think he is digging holes for you."

Du Caige was silent for a while, and asked, "Do you have evidence? Or, what data did you analyze to reach this conclusion."

Yan Yingzhen's voice was full of displeasure: "No, and there is no need for evidence. He has dealt with you not once or twice, and I won't be surprised if there is one more time."

"But the problem is," Du Caige worded carefully, "Dream-to-Dream Mutual Entertainment needs theaters, and with the theaters, many of our plans can be accelerated. This time, it's like someone will give you a pillow when you fall asleep."

"I admit that there may be a pit dug by Shen Jinsong behind this, but this is a conspiracy. Knowing that there is a pit, I have to eat the bait first. Otherwise, I don't know when we will be able to have our own theater chain."

Yan Yingzhen said loudly: "Can't you wait? If you want a theater circuit, I'll build it for you in a few years!"

"Opportunity waits for no one."
