While Chen Minhao was still calculating his small treasury in his mind, Wang Zixi laughed and said: "Ms. Kang, since you have said this, let's do what you say. The monthly rent plus property fees, a total of 15 Ten thousand."
Kang Hui tilted his lips and said with a smile: "Okay, then let's go back and discuss it and give you an answer as soon as possible."
Chen Minhao looked around and looked again: "Sister Kang, just book this place. The area, decoration style and location are all to my liking."
Wang Zixi took a deep breath and said in an excited tone: "Mr. Chen, you seem to be a cheerful person at first glance. Let's see what furniture is missing here, and I will provide it to you for free."
Kang Hui and Chen Minhao were not polite. After the discussion, they directly made a list and gave it to Wang Zixi.
After reading it, Wang Zixi said there was no problem. He immediately used the computer and printer in the office to get the rental contract directly.
Poly Real Estate’s rental contracts all have templates, and you only need to fill in some information in the template.
According to the rental contract, Chen Minhao will pay 450,000 yuan every quarter. The contract period is 3 years and the annual increase cannot exceed 10%.
After paying the 450,000 yuan, Chen Minhao's bank card balance was almost zero.
After Chen Minhao returned home, he began to think about money.
When it comes to money, it means nothing more than "increase revenue and reduce expenditure". Chen Minhao felt that he had nothing to save now, so he could only consider it from the perspective of open source. He simply sorted out five ways to increase cash flow in the short term.
The first method is to borrow money. Chen Minhao is surrounded by two rich women, Wu Xiaoshuang and Su Yan, who buy a house like a green onion, and both of them expressed their willingness to borrow money when Chen Minhao bought a house last year.
In addition to borrowing from individuals, Chen Minhao believes that with his popularity, there is no problem in borrowing from some financial institutions.
The second method is to ask Shenmeng Agency for the salary for "Detective" in advance. The salary for "Detective" is tens of millions, and this money can be used to meet urgent needs.
The third method is for Chen Minhao to shoot more advertisements and accept more endorsements during this period. Now that Chen Minhao is a new generation idol in China, he doesn't have to worry about not receiving advertisements, and advertisers offer high prices.
The fourth method is to cash in on Chen Minhao's popularity and participate in some variety shows, reality shows, etc. Now there is a program team of "China's Good Actor" who wants to find Chen Minhao, and their remuneration is quite high, tens of millions.
As for other methods, such as financing. Chen Minhao himself felt unreliable.
After all, the concept of a studio only stayed in the minds of Kang Hui and Chen Minhao. The management contract between Chen Minhao and Shen Meng has not been terminated yet, and this is not the case for White Wolf with empty hands.
Chen Minhao lay on the bed and tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. He finally decided to borrow money.
The reason why I didn't choose to go to Shenmeng Agency to get the "Detective" remuneration in advance is because the industry rules in the entertainment industry are to pay the remuneration in stages, and the agency will settle the final settlement.
Chen Minhao cherishes his feathers. On the one hand, he does not want to give others the impression that he is short of money, on the other hand. He believes that if you want to work in an industry, it is important to abide by the rules of the industry.
After all, after thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, I might become a boss one day! If the artist wants to get money in advance, will he give it to him or not
As for the third and fourth methods, whether it is shooting commercials or participating in variety shows, it will take a lot of Chen Minhao's time, and now he wants to devote all his time to the album.
After thinking about it, Chen Minhao still felt that borrowing money would be more appropriate.
As long as you are thick-skinned, there is nothing you can't handle.
At nine o'clock the next morning, Chen Minhao dialed Wu Xiaoshuang's phone. He didn't say anything, and went straight to the point: "Xiaoshuang, can you lend me some money? I will pay you back at the end of this year, and the interest will be calculated at five cents."
"How much money are you going to borrow?"
"Ten million."
"Okay, which card should I transfer the money to?"
"...?!"
Although Chen Minhao estimated that Wu Xiaoshuang would lend him the money, her agreement was too straightforward.
"Just transfer the money to my China Merchants Bank 6217 card. Thank you, I'll give you an IOU."
"No, it doesn't cost much. I'm taking the lead on Weibo right now, so I won't talk about it for now."
"Okay, go ahead and do your work. I'll treat you to dinner later."
After hanging up the phone, Chen Minhao leaned on the sofa and took a few deep breaths. Wu Xiaoshuang was really brave. But the gap between rich and poor in this world is too big!
While feeling emotional, half of the stone in Chen Minhao's heart fell to the ground. Wu Xiaoshuang had made a good start, and he planned to make persistent efforts to call Su Xiao.
For Chen Minhao, the office rent and mortgage are just a small amount of money. The bulk of the money spent on the album is the album's promotion or the physical production of the record, which requires real money.
This time is very realistic. No matter how good-looking you are, you still can’t get rid of the bill when it’s time to pay.
The 10 million that Wu Xiaoshuang lent can't be considered a drop in the bucket, but for an album, it is far from enough.
Chen Minhao did a simple calculation and found that approximately 30 million is needed.
Then, Lidya Su’s call didn’t get through.
Chen Minhao decided to call her in the afternoon. After all, he had to go to the recording studio to record "Li Ren" and "Later" during the day, so he couldn't spend all his time borrowing money.
Chen Minhao changed his clothes and was about to go out when his phone rang. It was Wu Xiaoshuang.
"Hey, Xiaoshuang."
Wu Xiaoshuang's apologetic voice came from the phone: "I have already put ten million in your card, but after my dad heard that I lent you ten million, he told me that he wanted to meet you, but he didn't know that you convenient?"
Before Chen Minhao spoke, Wu Xiaoshuang immediately added: "If it's inconvenient for you, forget it."
Chen Minhao said: "It's convenient, but I have to record a song today. If I want to meet, I can only meet earlier or later in the evening."
Wu Xiaoshuang then made an appointment for Chen Minhao and her father Wu Hanji to meet at a time and place.
Wu Xiaoshuang's family is basically in the entertainment industry, and her father Wu Hanji is also a well-known figure.
Wu Hanji has invested in more than 30 film companies, and his business involves film and television creation and production, distribution and screening, domestic and foreign co-production film management, coordination and services, theater operation and management, digital production, construction and management of digital cinemas, printing and processing, and film processing. Exporting, film equipment marketing, post-film development, CD production and media operations.
At about ten o'clock in the morning, Chen Minhao got into Chen Qiang's car. After about twenty minutes of driving, he soon arrived at the agreed destination - Hongmiao Teahouse.
Hongmiao Tea House looks antique. Both the interior decoration and the attitude of the waiters are impeccable and quite antique.
Chen Minhao felt as if he was in a professional costume film shooting location. Just looking at the location, decoration and services, Chen Minhao knew that this place was not cheap.
As soon as Chen Minhao entered the door, he was led to a small private room by a waiter in ancient costume.
There was already a middle-aged man in a suit and leather suit sitting in the private room. He had a Chinese character face and from the outline of his facial features, he was similar to Wu Xiaoshuang's uncle Wu Hongrong.
The middle-aged man stood up immediately after seeing Chen Minhao and said enthusiastically: "Xiao Chen, I am Wu Hanji. You can sit wherever you like. It takes half an hour for the waiter here to make a pot of tea. I know you are busy. Let's not order tea today. Let's go directly Let’s get to the point of communication.”
Chen Minhao was stunned for a moment and said, "But in a teahouse like this, it would be inconvenient not to consume at all."
Wu Hanji chuckled and said, "It's okay, this teahouse is mine."
Chen Minhao sighed secretly: After being so inhumane, he nodded and sat down directly.
Wu Hanji said: "Xiao Chen, you are really young and promising. From the beginning, Xiao Shuang kept praising you in my ears. Later, my brother Hong Rong also kept praising you in my ears, which made me a little curious about you. Do you have three heads and six arms? After meeting you this year, I was a little disappointed. Apart from being more handsome, you also look like an ordinary person."
Chen Minhao and Wu Hanji are both in the entertainment industry, so they naturally have more topics to talk about.
Although Wu Hanji is dressed as a businessman in a suit and leather shoes, he is quite humble and does not have the airs of a big shot in the entertainment industry. He also speaks in a humorous manner, which makes it easy for people to like him.
As the two chatted, they came to the source of this meeting.
Wu Hanji smiled and said, "By the way, I heard from Xiaoshuang that you plan to borrow 10 million. Generally speaking, it shouldn't be difficult for a popular star to borrow 10 million."
Chen Minhao smiled awkwardly and thought: Generally speaking, it is not difficult, but I am in the second class.
Chen Minhao's expression was a little subtle, but he still nodded and said, "I'm really short of money recently."
Wu Hanji nodded and asked with a smile: "What are you going to use this money for?"
Chen Minhao thought for a moment and decided to tell the truth: "It will mainly be used for some daily expenses of my future studio and album production expenses."
"You are planning ahead! Now you are thinking about setting up a studio next year, okay!" Wu Hanji looked at Chen Minhao in surprise and said, "Is ten million enough?"
"I did the math and it seems it won't be enough. I plan to borrow some more money from other sources."
Wu Hanji raised his eyebrows with interest and asked, "Then are you considering financing?"
"Financing? There is no sign of my studio now, so no one should be willing to invest."
Wu Hanji nodded and said with a serious face: "Let's do this, I will give you 50 million, and after the establishment of your studio, I will hold 5% of the shares. Do you think it is okay
"???"
Chen Minhao was a little confused. Did I hear it wrong? Is my studio, which I don’t even have a shadow of, now valued at 1 billion
