Chapter 517: 【517】Just an ordinary good-looking guy picking up bargains_1
Yan Min, though she had Tang Feng’s verbal promise, was still not entirely at ease.
After all, she did not know him well enough yet, and if the two had different philosophies about company operations, conflicts would definitely arise later on.
As she hesitated, she heard Tang Feng continue, “I have another condition, Mr. Yan must agree to it, otherwise I will not invest.”
Yan Min was amused and laughed. She had not yet agreed to accept his investment, and here he was, laying out conditions.
“Sure, go ahead,” she said composedly with a nod of her head.
“The fifty million I invest must all be used for the production of “I Am Not the God of Medicine” and must not be misappropriated. Only by doing so can we ensure the movie’s quality,” Tang Feng said with a very serious expression.
This statement truly moved Yan Min.
She was very devout in her attitude towards film as well.
Once she decided to make a movie, she would spare no expense and give it her all.
Their philosophies indeed coincided perfectly.
Realizing this, a smile finally appeared on her face, “Alright, I am willing to accept your investment.”
Saying this, she reached out her hand.
Tang Feng shook hands with her.
This was the second time they had shaken hands; the previous time was brief, but this time the handshake lasted a little longer and felt more profound.
So soft!
Tang Feng’s heart skipped a beat, wanting to hold on a little longer.
But Yan Min quickly withdrew her hand, “Mr. Tang, now that we have agreed on a partnership, would you come back to the company with me to sign the contract?”
“Of course,” Tang Feng had no objections.
Liu Chuanxiang had been watching the whole time and couldn’t help laughing coldly when he saw them come to an agreement in just a few words, “Investing in a doomed flop of a movie, some people really have more money than sense.”
Tang Feng glanced at him indifferently, “This matter is between the two of us bosses; what business is it of a lowly manager like you?”
Liu Chuanxiang continued to sneer, “Heh, a small company that could go bankrupt at any moment, and you dare compare yourself with Huanhai Entertainment? I’ll be waiting for the day you go out of business.”
“Afraid you won’t wait to see that day, you’ll be fired by Huanhai Entertainment first. Because we will prove to you with facts how foolish your decision today is,” Tang Feng retorted unceremoniously.
“Hmph, let’s wait and see who has the last laugh,” Liu Chuanxiang said without firing off any more comments and left with a flick of his sleeve.
“What kind of person is this? Brazenly demanding bribes and still feeling so righteous?” Xu Xinling looked at Yan Min indignantly, “Mrs. Min, should we report this to Huanhai Entertainment? This guy definitely won’t get away with it.”
“No need, we haven’t suffered much loss anyway, better to avoid more trouble.”
Yan Min also disliked people like Liu Chuanxiang, but she knew this was a common situation in the industry, which she alone couldn’t put an end to.
The Foxtail Entertainment Company was just a startup; there was no need to provoke such a behemoth.
Xu Xinling, momentarily angry, complained a few more times, then put it out of her mind.
The three of them then left the restaurant and headed to the Foxtail Entertainment Company.
An ordinary office building, with the Foxtail Entertainment Company located on the fifth floor – a very inconspicuous small company.
Even the company’s sign looked shoddy.
If Tang Feng hadn’t placed such trust in the system’s judgment, he might have thought it was some unreliable shell company.
The company had only twelve employees, including Yan Min.
These employees were clearly waiting for news from Yan Min; as they saw the three people come in, they hurriedly got up to welcome them, their eyes filled with hope.
“Let me introduce you all, this is Mr. Tang Feng,” Yan Min paused briefly, then added, “Mr. Tang is willing to invest in our company. The “I Am Not the God of Medicine” project can continue now.”
“Yay…”
All the employees immediately cheered.
There were even two employees who hugged each other and cried.
It was evident that they had put a lot of effort into this project.
If it weren’t for Tang Feng extending a helping hand, all their efforts might have gone to waste.
Seeing how happy everyone was, Yan Min also rarely showed a smile on her face.
She then instructed an employee to print the contract and led Tang Feng and Xu Xinling into the office.
Her office was very small, just large enough for one person to work in, lacking even basic facilities like a sofa or a water dispenser.
Once the three of them entered, the office was almost completely blocked off.
“I’m really sorry that we have invested all our funds into the project, so our office environment is a bit poor. Please bear with it, Mr. Tang,” Yan Min was worried Tang Feng might suddenly change his mind, so she quickly explained.
Tang Feng didn’t mind and found a chair to sit on, “Mr. Yan, please don’t say that. It is not the mountains that make the man, but the man who makes the mountains. Though the office environment is plain, it doesn’t mean we can’t produce excellent work.”
Yan Min became even more curious about him, “Mr. Tang really is an odd person.”
“Odd in what way?” Tang Feng was genuinely curious.
“Normally, to invest in a company, one would need to inspect it multiple times and select it strictly. Yet, Mr. Tang, you made your decision based on just one project proposal. Isn’t that a bit… hasty?”
Yan Min chose her words carefully, fearing to annoy Tang Feng.
Far from being upset, Tang Feng laughed heartily for a moment, “I have a principle in doing things, and that is to judge people. As long as I feel you can be trusted, that’s enough.”
As he spoke those words, he felt a bit embarrassed himself.
The reality was, he had made the investment after a system prompt indicated he could make a lot of money.
Otherwise, for Yan Min alone, no matter how pretty or upright she was, it would not have been enough to make him fork out fifty million.
But his nonsensical talk moved Yan Min immensely when she heard it.
“Thank you very much for your trust, Mr. Tang. I will do my utmost to operate the project well and try not to disappoint you,” she said.
“Not try, but you will do well. I trust my judgment,” said Tang Feng, crossing his legs and getting into the spirit of the things.
Even he felt he might be overdoing it.
He was acting like a major film tycoon.
But only he knew that, in truth, he was just a run-of-the-mill bargain hunter.
What do you think?
