Chapter 119 Based on the relationship between me and Mr. Lu
"But Mr. Yu." Liu Fengshi put down the wine in his hand, "This one million...are you kidding me?"
Liu Fengshi smiled and said, "Look, although Qi Ziyan is the only famous artist in Fengshi, there are actually more than 20 artists. It's just that Fengshi's resources are limited, and they haven't started to develop yet. They all have great potential.
"And you, Mr. Yu, also said that you want to buy the entire Fengshi. The contract for the office building in the prime location that I rent has five years left. The total cost is more than one million! I clearly wrote that I want to sell it for 10 million!"
Before purchasing Fengshi, Ji Huaiyu also gave Ji Chenxing an evaluation, and the estimated value of Fengshi was around eight million.
The one million that Ji Chenxing mentioned was indeed a bit too much, but Feng Shi was indeed not worth the ten million that Liu Fengshi mentioned.
But Ji Chenxing has another trump card.
"Boss Liu, I'm telling you this, but the artist you made famous offended the Ji family. Do you think your company has any future? Who in the capital wants to offend the Ji family?"
This is exactly the news that Ji Chenxing released a few days ago.
The Ji family is also one of the largest families in the imperial capital. Although the Ji family may not openly make things difficult for anyone, other small companies may have to give face to the Ji family.
Now, if an artist from Fengshi embarrasses someone in front of the national audience, it’s okay once or twice. Others will be magnanimous and will not take this petty clown-like prank seriously and will not bother with you.
But it's not good to show off your face in front of others again and again. If you don't treat your arrogance well, what will happen if others treat the Ji family as a soft persimmon in the future?
The circle in the imperial capital is big and small at the same time. Even two companies that seem to have no intersection may suddenly be directly or indirectly related.
No one wanted to have any conflict with the Ji family because of an unknown person named Feng Shi.
In such an ecological environment, Fengshi’s artists may not be able to get good endorsements at best, or good scripts at worst. After all, new dramas also require capital investment.
When talking about development, Liu Fengshi looked embarrassed.
What Ji Chenxing said hit his sore spot. With the pressure from the Ji family, what he just said about the development potential became nonsense.
Seeing that the situation was not favorable, Liu Fengshi started to play the emotional card again.
"Boss Yu, it's actually not easy for me either."
He took a sip of wine and said, "In the early years, my sister and I started a business together and later made a small fortune. She had a good vision and saw the potential of the poor boy from the Shen family, so she married herself off early. But I am different. I only have Feng Shi!
"That fat guy from the Shen family, he was resentful of me for looking down on him in the past. When my sister and I got married, he said something like 'Thirty years in the east, thirty years in the west, don't despise the young and poor'. Now it's my turn to be down and out, but that fat guy won't even help me!"
After complaining, Liu Fengshi looked at Ji Chenxing in a self-deprecating tone, "Boss Yu, you have to leave me some money for retirement, right?"
This sentence was both a complaint and a way of distancing himself from the Shen family. Regardless of whether the deal was successful or not, Ji Chenxing and Lu Yuzhou could not cause trouble for the Shen family.
Ji Chenxing crossed his fingers, "If I don't buy it, does Mr. Liu think he can live comfortably as an old man?"
She smiled and said, "Three million, maybe. I also want to make friends with Mr. Liu. After all, some people bully others just because they have some strength. I can't stand such people."
Ji Chenxing was referring to the Ji family.
Liu Fengshi's eyes lit up.
I've heard for a long time that Yu Yang and the Ji family have some conflicts, and now it seems to be true.
If he gets along well with Yu Yang, he will be the dog of the Yu and Lu families and work for them.
Even if Ji Huaiyu had great abilities, as long as he kept causing trouble, Ji Huaiyu couldn't blame him. If he didn't have a good relationship with Yu Yang, it would be even worse.
Not only does he have a feud with the Ji family, he also has grudges with the Yu family in Hong Kong Island and the Lu family in the imperial capital.
Although there are many first-tier cities in this country, each of them has its own branch, so it may not be easy to do business in the future.
"Three million... not impossible." Liu Fengshi gritted his teeth and filled Ji Chenxing's glass again, "But Mr. Yu, can you do me a small favor?"
"What help?" Ji Chenxing raised his eyebrows.
"I have a little niece. President Lu should know that she wanted to sign a contract with your company recently, but you didn't give your consent."
Liu Fengshi chuckled, "Boss Lu is here too, why don't we discuss these two matters together."
Liu Fengshi paused, "I know that President Lu has cooperated with the Ji family, but cooperation is not marriage, and there is no such thing as monogamy. Your cooperation with the Ji family will not affect our cooperation, right, President?"
Ji Chenxing was about to finish the wine, but unexpectedly Lu Yuzhou poured him a cup of hot tea and handed it to him, "His tea is good, try it."
Ji Chenxing knew that this was a suggestion for her not to drink anymore, so he gave Lu Yuzhou some face, put down his wine glass and took the teacup.
Liu Fengshi was so angry that his teeth ached. The information he checked did not say that Yu Yang was such a heavy drinker.
I had originally held out a glimmer of hope to continue getting Yu Yang drunk, but now it seems that's no longer possible.
"I'll listen to President Yu." Lu Yuzhou put the wine glass aside and said calmly, "President Liu, you also said that this time it's you and President Yu who are discussing cooperation, so let President Yu have the final say. President Yu asked me to sign Shen Yufei, so I will sign even if I breach the contract with the Ji family."
Lu Yuzhou glanced at Liu Fengshi and spoke in a nonchalant manner.
Liu Fengshi took a deep breath. The information he had found before said that Lu Yuzhou and Yu Yang were senior sister and junior brother, and they even had some conflicts in their early years.
Why does it seem a little ambiguous now?
He originally thought that the Lu family would form an alliance with the Ji family. After all, the two families were a perfect match in the imperial capital. He also heard that the old men of the two families had arranged marriages for their children in the past.
Although it is rigid and old-fashioned, it is a way for such a large family to keep the wealth within the family.
Liu Fengshi looked at Yu Yang, who also looked good, and clicked his tongue in his heart.
Sure enough, the relationship between these generals is very complicated.
"Then Mr. Yu, what do you think?" Liu Fengshi asked Ji Chenxing.
"I think that Mr. Liu should focus on Fengshi instead of being obsessed with Lu's company," said Ji Chenxing.
"It's true that Lu's has been operating for many years, but our Yu's in Hong Kong Island and Lu's in Kyoto are not much different. Moreover, with my relationship with Mr. Lu, do I still worry that Feng Shi won't be able to survive in the imperial capital in the future?"
Ji Chenxing didn't even look at Lu Yuzhou and told lies without blushing or beating his heart.
Liu Fengshi thought about it and agreed. Although Lu Yuzhou’s company was large, it also had many people and was not as good as his own Fengshi.
Liu Fengshi nodded, "I have one last condition."
