Chapter 204 This turns out to be a trap!
Song Chuang's brain was working rapidly, wondering where the flaw in this matter lay.
But no matter how hard he thought, he couldn't figure it out.
'Did he send someone to monitor me?'
"That shouldn't be the case. Even if we monitor them, we won't be able to find out the specific details."
'Or, is he deceiving himself?'
'But doesn't he know too much information?'
"Get resources, get money, make profits, go public. You couldn't have guessed all these details, right? And you guessed them all at once?"
'Thinking of this, Song Chuang, who was puzzled, could only decide to take it one step at a time. Try it out first. . To avoid being cheated...
So, he laughed dryly and said, "Of course..."
"Working under you is the most comfortable time I have ever had since I entered the film and television industry."
Chen Yan gently waved his hand and corrected, "You are not working under me."
“We are in a cooperative relationship.”
"I have and I give you full authority."
"You share my worries and gain enough benefits and rights."
"Isn't this good?"
"This is real money, not a big deal."
At this point, Chen Yan looked at Song Chuang deeply again, "Old Song. Don't let me down."
After hearing Chen Yan's words, Song Chuang's palms began to sweat again.
He felt that the matter was obvious. Chen Yan must have known about the incident, so he came to criticize him.
However, he had a non-compete agreement, and it was not fair for him to have an affair with them when his company was competing with Xu's Films, so he felt a little ashamed for a moment, and felt that he had failed Chen Yan's trust.
Just as Song Chuang gradually leaned towards Chen Yan, Chen Yan spoke again indifferently.
He said, "Old Song, sometimes people get carried away by the big cake."
“Some things may look like sugar to you, but they may be arsenic when you eat them.”
After hearing Chen Yan's words, Song Chuang hesitated for a moment.
I don’t know what Chen Yan is talking about.
'Is he hinting at the conditions the Xu brothers offered him?'
"I feel fine. There's nothing wrong."
"It's just a big promise, but... it's not arsenic, right?"
Although he was hesitant in his heart, because Chen Yan had just shocked Song Chuang so much, Song Chuang couldn't help but begin to doubt Xu Zhaorong's conditions for a moment.
He couldn't help but sort out the conditions offered by Xu Zhaorong in his mind.
Gradually, Song Chuang's vision became brighter and brighter. He suddenly seemed to understand.
The conditions offered by Xu Zhaorong seemed very generous, but in fact... there was a deep trap hidden inside.
Among those conditions, Xu Zhaorong promised that Song Chuang could share resources with Xu Brothers Pictures and borrow and hire the Xu Brothers' related filming equipment, venues, and even actors and personnel at cost price.
This is indeed a favorable condition for the development of new companies, but it is also a chain to tie a dog.
Even though the Xu brothers held a small stake in the new company, they had no way to restrict Song Chuang. But as long as Song Chuang used the Xu brothers' resources and manpower, the dog chain would be tied around his neck.
Because once the two sides have huge differences regarding the film and television project, the Xu brothers can completely influence Song Chuang without going through the new company.
All they have to do is tighten the leash in their hands and force Song Chuang to surrender by freezing the new company's cooperation projects or freezing the resources provided by the head office to the new company.
At that time, in order for the new company to continue running , Song Chuang had no choice.
This clause, plus the 10-year binding condition.
Song Chuang discovered that once he signed the contract, he would be completely controlled by the Xu brothers.
Thinking of this, Song Chuang couldn't help but take a breath in his heart.
It was such a serious trap, and you didn't even notice it?
Almost got into trouble?
Song Chuang reflected on himself.
I feel... maybe this is because of the open and aboveboard strategy used by Xu Zhaorong.
After all, who wouldn’t be envious of these cheap and rich film and television resources? Who wouldn’t want to use them?
By using these resources, each project can save hundreds or even tens of millions.
This year, maybe we can make an extra 100 million in profit!
Just to avoid being strangled when disagreements arise, why not use these resources?
So why work with them?
Therefore, as long as he is determined to surrender to Xu Zhaorong, even if he knows about this trap, he will probably choose to plunge into it.
If nothing else, the benefits far outweigh the disadvantages.
However, now, Song Chuang will not fall into that trap again.
After all, compared to Xu Zhaorong who made big promises and set traps, the conditions offered by Chen Yan were much more generous and transparent.
So, in those few seconds, Song Chuang, who had figured out everything, finally made up his mind: he couldn't hesitate any longer! He would just follow this boss all the way to the end!
Especially... when the boss in front of him is so unfathomable!
Thinking of this, Song Chuang no longer hesitated. He said to Chen Yan respectfully, "Boss, you are right. I will reflect on my actions during this period of time after I go back. I will not let you down again."
Chen Yan looked at Song Chuang deeply again.
After a moment, he uttered a deep "hmm" and said, "Okay. It's good that you have this awareness."
"Okay. You've been tired all morning, go and take a rest."
Hearing Chen Yan's words, Song Chuang quickly stood up, bowed deeply to Chen Yan, then turned and left the office.
After Song Chuang left, Chen Yan took a sip of tea with a serious look.
"It's the Xu brothers again!"
"These two brothers really think they are made of clay!"
Just now, Chen Yan used [Inner Earphones] on Song Chuang twice in a row.
Maybe because Song Chuang felt a little guilty, Chen Yan knew the whole story for the first time, and even knew the specific conditions clearly.
This also made Chen Yan a little angry.
It’s indeed Song Chuang!
It turned out to be the Xu brothers!
In the beginning, Chen Yan didn't really care about the dispute between Lu Man, Director Zhang, and the Xu brothers, and he didn't have any ill feelings towards them.
After all, Lu Man was in the wrong from the beginning.
But... no matter how wrong he was, Lu Man had already paid enough.
Not only was she banned to death, but even her agency was forced to give up on her.
On my side, although I supported her to come out again, the cost of the film production alone more than doubled, spending tens of millions more.
Because of the ban, Chen Yan was unable to appear on various variety shows and programs to promote his career, so he spent tens of millions more on promotion.
All this added up to tens of millions more.
Lu Man has already paid enough price for his former willfulness.
But Xu and Director Zhang have been entangled. First they banned it, then they suppressed it, and finally they praised it to death. On my side, I had been silent before and only made my own movies.
As a result, they are now trying to poach our own professional managers.
This is simply too much!
For a moment, Chen Yan put the Xu brothers on the list of enemies.
It seems that I really need to find an opportunity to deal with them!
If the tiger doesn't show its power, people will think I'm Garfield!
As for Song Chuang, Chen Yan was actually not as disappointed and angry as he had just shown.
A wise bird chooses the right tree to roost in. It is normal to hesitate or even be tempted when someone is trying to poach you.
And when listening to Song Chuang's inner thoughts, Chen Yan also found that the other party was always more inclined to his side.
In addition, when Chen Yan listened to his inner thoughts for the second time, he had become completely determined.
Chen Yan felt that this was enough.
As for the beating just now, it was just Chen Yan's way of making the other party remember it...
…
At this time, Song Chuang came out of Chen Yan's office.
Looking at the game company production staff in the hall who were still immersed in their work, I felt as if I were in another world for a moment.
If he had not faced it himself, he would never have imagined that he, who had been in the film and television industry for so many years, would be suppressed by a young man in his early twenties.
Thinking back to the moment he entered the door, Chen Yan had gradually built up pressure on him, beating him harshly but with mercy, Song Chuang felt that his loss was not unfair.
As soon as this thought came to his mind, he was stunned.
"No. Not just my new boss."
Song Chuang pondered for a moment and felt that... this was a trap. And this trap was set up from Yang Rou's office.
If Yang Rou hadn't suddenly given me a hint, I wouldn't have thought so much on the way here, causing my mentality to become problematic.
As a result, when facing Chen Yan, his psychological defenses were broken through .
Thinking of this, Song Chuang couldn't help but take a breath.
My boss...is really not an ordinary person.
Each knock was closely linked to another, and a trap was set up without anyone noticing.
However, after what happened just now, Song Chuang knew that he had lost more than one step.
If you lose, you must accept the defeat.
What's more, following your own boss is obviously much better than eating the pie of the Xu brothers.
From this perspective, my boss and Yang Rou can be considered my benefactors: at least they prevented me from going astray.
So, after leaving the company, Song thought about it and sent a message to Yang Rou.
Nothing else to say, just two words, "Thank you."
After sending the message, he put the phone back into his pocket, his eyes gradually becoming firm: For a boss so young and so unfathomable, he should stop overthinking and just do it. He believed that the future would not let him down.
…
At this time, Yang Rou was handling official business in the office. Suddenly, she received a message from Song Chuang. She took a look and stopped what she was doing.
Among smart people, they can guess what happened with just two words.
So, she raised her head, with a hint of deep thought in her eyes.
"It is indeed Song Chuang."
"My boss is giving me hints."
"Hmm... I think my little plan will satisfy the boss."
…
After Song Chuang's problem was resolved, Chen Yan, who had been worried about a fire in the company these days, finally breathed a sigh of relief.
On Friday, the box office of "Love Is Not Blind" rose slightly, earning 18 million in a single day.
On Saturday, the box office opened again, with 21 million.
On Sunday, the box office finally began to decline slightly, but still reached 13 million.
At this point, the box office of "Love Is Not Blind" officially reached 500 million. Chen Yan and Lu Man completed their bet...
