Chapter 538 So This Is The Truth

Listening to Chen Yan's words, Xu Zhaorong didn't feel any shame at all.

He smiled and said, "It's a business. Everything is based on profit. Don't shudder."

"Mr. Zhang needs my help, so I will help."

"But I also feel that Mr. Chen is more worthy of investment, so I will find Mr. Chen."

"It's just that I don't know if Mr. Chen is willing to give me this chance to give me a favor."

Hearing Xu Zhaorong's cliché, Chen Yan on the phone shook his head, obviously not agreeing.

Because, he knew that this matter was not as simple as what Xu Zhaorong said: Xu Zhaorong must have a conspiracy.

Just don't know what the plot is.

Chen Yan, I still remember that the last time Xu Zhaorong traveled all the way to Qindao to meet him.

He didn't ask for anything, and he didn't say anything for anyone.

Instead, he sold out his younger brother, Director Zhang, and all those who followed him.

Chen Yan didn't think he had the domineering aura that would make people fall for him.

Xu Zhaorong is willing to pay so much, there must be an ulterior secret.

Therefore, the more kindness Xu Zhaorong showed towards him, the more Chen Yan's heart beat.

Thinking of this, Chen Yan asked tentatively, "The reason why Mr. Xu did all this must be for a purpose?"

"You've always been nice to me before, and now you're nice to me again. There must be something you want."

"Say it. Say it, and I'll think about it."

Hearing Chen Yan's words, Xu Zhaorong said with a smile, "President Chen misunderstood me."

He said with a little emotion, "To be honest, I used to be an idealist."

"Back then, I saw that the foreign film and television industry was thriving, while our domestic film and television industry was in a desert."

"That's why I got involved in this industry."

"For so many years, I have followed the development of the industry and met too many people and too many things."

He sighed and said, "Hey, to be honest. I think our country's film and television industry has gone wrong."

"This kind of industry is not what we envisioned back then."

"I want to give our country's film and television industry a chance to start over."

"I can't understand those companies that monopolize resources, those high-level executives who bully others, the low-level flatterers, and those stars who obviously have no business ability but get sky-high salaries."

"It's just that my strength is too weak."

"I want to change the status quo of the industry, but I can't."

"At this time, Mr. Chen, you appeared. Your Morning Dew Films, your Chaoyang Project, gave me hope for change."

"During several contacts, I firmly believe that you also have the determination to change this industry."

"So, I want to help you."

"Of course, it's also helping myself to fulfill this ideal."

Listening to Xu Zhaorong's "deafening" speech, Chen Yan was so shocked that he couldn't speak for a long time.

Not to mention anything else, as expected of the "Dragon" among the Xu Brothers, this eloquence is really good.

And it is well-founded, emotional, and insightful.

For a moment, Chen Yan couldn't tell whether Xu Zhaorong's words were true or false!

Is this guy really a "loyal minister"?

Do you really want to rely on yourself?

You know, Chen Yan used the [inner earphone] to listen to his inner voice last time.

In his heart, this guy only said that he wanted to help Chen Yan!

When these two things were superimposed, Chen Yan was a little shaken in his mind.

However, Chen Yan is not so easy to trust people, especially when facing this kind of old fox.

So, he turned his head around, and then continued to probe, "But those people you just mentioned, in those actions, there are people from your Xu brothers."

Hearing Chen Yan's words, Xu Zhaorong laughed "haha" twice, and then said, "Indeed. That's why I said I'm useless. Even my younger brother, my friend, and my company can't change it. "

"This industry is already so screwed up."

"It is a big dye vat, and everyone who enters will be dyed."

"That's why I want to reshape it with you!"

Chen Yan frowned slightly, and asked, "Then if you want to rebuild industry norms, your Xu Brothers are likely to collapse."

Xu Zhaorong said indifferently, "If you break it, you will break it."

"It is fate to plant a crooked tree and be cut down."

Chen Yan frowned even deeper, "What about Xu Zhaoqing and Director Zhang?"

"I can't let them go."

This time, Xu Zhaorong was silent for a few seconds.

After a while, he said in a low voice, "In fact, I have been very disappointed with what they have done in the past few years."

"I gave them a lot of chances. But they didn't take it."

"So. They should have such a calamity in their lives."

"However, I'm not too worried about them. The money we earned in the first half of our lives is enough for them to live comfortably."

Hearing Xu Zhaorong's last few words, Chen Yan seemed to have caught something keenly.

But he wanted to catch that sliver of inspiration, but he couldn't.

He tried hard to think, to think, but it always seemed to be a little bit, a little bit worse.

So, in the end, he could only continue to ask, "Then if I accept you, what do you plan to do when the reshuffle is over? Will you continue to work in the film and television industry? Start a new company yourself?"

Xu Zhaorong said dejectedly, "I don't have the energy to start another company."

"After all, I am not young. I have passed the age of struggle."

"I just hope the industry can be better."

"So, maybe, I'll eventually retire and travel, grow flowers, and raise dogs."

Speaking of this, he changed his voice, "Of course, if Mr. Chen thinks highly of me, he will also appreciate my ability in the process of rebuilding the order of the film and television industry."

"Then I can also join Mr. Chen's company and contribute to Mr. Chen's film and television empire."

After carefully reading Xu Zhaorong's words, Chen Yan's eyes lit up, as if he had vaguely found his way.

He pretended to hesitate for a moment, and then said, "I can accept you. But my layout in the film and television industry is almost complete, what can you do?"

Xu Zhaorong said, "I know."

"Mr. Chen has three generals in the film and television industry, Yang Rou, Song Chuang, and Wang Meili."

"One of them is in charge of film and television production, one is in charge of film and television distribution, and the other is in charge of artist management."

"It almost covers the three most important fields in the circle."

"I know their status in Mr. Chen's heart, and I never thought about competing with them."

"However, I have an idea. Mr. Chen and these companies are all self-operated businesses."

"However, in an industry, even if it is a dominant player, there must be other small and medium-sized companies that still survive."

"In particular, the reshuffle of the entire industry has created so many opportunities, and more people will definitely participate."

"So, if Mr. Chen believes in me, I can set up a separate subsidiary to invest in film and television. Invest in films, invest in artists."

"Mr. Chen's vision is well-known in the industry. With your guidance, I believe this company will definitely develop."

Hearing Xu Zhaorong, Chen Yan suddenly laughed silently.

Because he understood, he finally understood.

He understood why Xu Zhaorong wanted to take refuge in him "sincerely", and also understood what Xu Zhaorong wanted to do.

When all the answers were presented in front of him, Chen Yan suddenly felt that Xu Zhaorong was a little pathetic, pitiful and ridiculous.

He shook his head, and then chatted with Xu Zhaorong and Xu Zhaorong.

Afterwards, he gave Xu Zhaorong an attitude of "think about it and give him an answer", and Chen Yan hung up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Chen Yan threw the phone on the table, and walked towards the safe in the corner.

The sky was gradually getting dark, and fiery red clouds spread across the horizon.

Chen Yan opened the safe, took out a document from it, and put it on the table to read.

This document was given to Chen Yan by Yang Rou back then. It was information about the Xu brothers' shady affairs, and it was also Chen Yan's most important hole card when facing the Xu brothers. (234 chapters)

At the beginning, Chen Yan and Yang Rou planned to use this hole card in a chain plan to block the Xu brothers first, and then wait for the Xu brothers to jump out, then play the hole card and destroy the Xu brothers.

In the end, who knew that when the [Chaoyang Project] in the chain plan came out, the Xu brothers didn't fight back, but immediately gave up, and after that, at most, they only competed on the bright side.

So this has kept this trump card up until now.

After all, when playing cards, no one will come up and throw four twos first, and then throw two kings.

But now, looking at this information, Chen Yan recalled the content of Xu Zhaorong's chat with him, and also figured out why Xu Zhaorong took refuge in him and then reshuffled the industry.

All because of the Xu brothers, in fact, under the leadership of Xu Zhaorong, they are now strong outsiders and insiders.

In the past, Xu Zhaorong did take the Xu brothers to the top of the entertainment industry.

When they were at their strongest, the Xu brothers once accounted for one-third of the box office of domestic films that year, and there were many first-line stars and big-name directors under their banner.

It can be said that when they coughed, the entire entertainment circle was shaken.

But with capital entering the entertainment industry, the mentality of the Xu brothers has changed. Especially Xu Zhaorong's mentality has changed.

He found that the money he earned in a year through his hard work filming was not as good as a few points in the capital market.

He discovered that capital is so magical that it can advance future earnings.

Therefore, he followed Zhao Qingtian, learned from other rich men, and gradually started to engage in capital operations.

Under his operation, the Xu brothers successfully entered the A-share market as the No. 1 stock in the domestic entertainment industry. He, his younger brother, and Director Zhang also successfully promoted their capital and realized the basic freedom of wealth.

However, up to here, Xu Zhaorong was not satisfied. Because he discovered that although the entire market in the entertainment industry is small, it has a huge reputation that does not match the size of the market.

In the past, most of these fames were selling advertisements and selling movies.

However, after being placed in the capital market, the fame of the stars can affect the views of capital and the choices of shareholders.

However, the value of a star, because it is judged subjectively, has too much room for manipulation.

Therefore, he began to privately issue additional shares to his own stars, bundled the stars into his chariot, and then carried out publicity to stimulate the stock price to rise, and then cashed out at a high price.

If these are barely within the scope allowed by the rules, then gradually, he became even more crazy. In order to realize the cash as soon as possible, he directly cooperates with celebrities.

The star established a shell company worth only a few million, and then he bought it for several hundred million by issuing additional shares to the market.

Anyway, the stockholders paid for the money, and it has nothing to do with him if he loses or makes money.

He just needs to share the money with the stars afterwards.

As for facing supervision, he will also come up with a reasonable and legal gambling contract: the contract stipulates that the star of the acquired shell company must complete the corresponding performance within a few years, and if it cannot be completed, it must be compensated according to the proportion.

These contracts and the way of gambling are reasonable and legal, and the regulatory authorities can't find fault.

That's all, after playing more and more big, Xu Zhaorong began to pledge shares to withdraw cash. Or, fake yin-yang contracts with the stars.

And the money they took was used to invest in movies, while making friends with people from all walks of life, and then developing into other industries.

Although they have still produced many movies with word of mouth and box office over the years, Yixin is no longer in the entertainment industry.

So, as of the information provided by Yang Rou to Chen Yan, the Xu Brothers are actually just an empty shell. Although they have a market value of 20 to 30 billion, the money has been scammed away in various ways. .

This is the real reason why Xu Zhaorong dared to follow Chen Yan to overthrow the entertainment circle: he has already run away from the entertainment circle, and he doesn't care about the life or death of the entertainment circle at all.

And even, he may really be as loyal as he expressed to Chen Yan: looking forward to the reshuffle of the entertainment industry.

Because, in this way, he can repeat his routine and make a lot of money again.

Or. Not only did he want to make a lot of money, but he also wanted to cheat Chen Yan along with him.

Chen Yan tapped on the document in his hand while pondering over it.

Xu Zhaorong wants to work here because he knows that he is rich and has vision, and he is the perfect "taken advantage" of his plan.

In "cooperating" with Chen Yan, Xu Zhaorong didn't need to do anything illegal to continue the capital operation he was good at.

For example, after gaining Chen Yan's trust, he can use the previous method to find a first-line star outside the Chen Group to cooperate with.

Then spend 100 to 200 million yuan, use the gambling contract to acquire the star's company, and get cash.

In the past, he worked for the Xu Brothers, and after taking cash, he could only breach the contract and calculate bad debts.

However, as far as Chen Yan was concerned, he didn't need to worry at all.

Because of the internal resources of the group, the Chaoyang Project, and Chen Yan's vision, he casually pushed this star to participate in a few projects, and the money was earned back, and the bet was completed. Make it look like there's nothing wrong with the deal.

Doesn't it look like Chen Yan didn't lose anything?

After all, although Chen Yan spent money, he also earned an equivalent amount.

But what if he gave that star an inflated valuation?

As mentioned before, the price of a celebrity is a subjective judgment. There is actually no problem with the difference between 120 million and 150 million.

Then if he raises it at least a little bit, it will raise the cost on Chen Yan's side.

And, don't forget, the resources he gave to those celebrities were all from within Chen Yan's company.

Chen Yan's projects are all guaranteed profits.

If those resources were used on his own people within the group, Chen Yan's money would be a net profit.

If it is used on an outsider, no gain, no loss. For Chen Yan, it is already a loss.

This very obscure way of capital operation, if Yang Rou hadn't given Chen Yan the information before, perhaps Chen Yan would have been deceived.

The more he thought about it, the more Chen Yan felt that Xu Zhaorong was ambitious and secretly set him up.

This also made Chen Yan want to defeat the Xu brothers even more, and make Xu Zhaorong and the others pay the due price.

Don't they like money?

That statement will make them bankrupt and liquidated, penniless!

And this first step is to use "Wandering Planet" to defeat Director Zhang's new movie head-on, and expose the false prosperity of the Xu brothers.

Let the entertainment industry and the capital market understand that the world of the Xu brothers is gone forever!

Let the stock price of the Xu brothers plummet, trigger their pledge line, and drive them to a dead end!

After sorting things out, Chen Yan put the documents in his hands back into the safe, and after thinking about it, he decided to talk to Yang Rou.

As Xu Zhaorong's old enemy for many years, Yang Rou knew the two brothers best.

Perhaps, telling her Xu Zhaorong's phone call today will give her some new clues and information.

Thinking of this, Chen Yan got up, took the elevator, and went to the film and television company on the 17th floor.

Along the way, he said hello to the young girls from the film and television company, and Chen Yan came to Yang Rou's office.

Knocking on the door, Yang Rou's cold voice sounded from inside, "Please come in."

Chen Yan pushed the door open and went in.

Yang Rou was sitting behind the boss's desk in a light gray lady's suit, looking at the documents.

Today, she has a ball head, which adds a touch of youth and playfulness to her already mature.

Her face was fair and calm, looking a little cold and inhuman.

However, Chen Yan couldn't help but think of the night when the two of them were in the bathroom.

At that time, Yang Rou was so charming and charming that people couldn't stop.

But, only for that night.

After that night, Yang Rou always avoided facing Chen Yan.

Although she always said that she was frank and frank with Chen Yan, Chen Yan could easily spot her little panic.

Like this time.

At the beginning, she was still concentrating on her official duties, but when she saw that the person who came in was silent, she couldn't help but look up.

After realizing that it was Chen Yan in front of her, she panicked and almost tore up the document.

It was she who tried her best to control herself, so she greeted with a slightly trembling voice, "Good morning, Mr. Chen."

Chen Yan gave a "hmm" and corrected, "Good evening, Sister Rou."

Hearing Chen Yan's words, Yang Rou couldn't help but glanced out the window.

The fire cloud outside the house has left the last ashes, darkness begins to fill the sky

Only then did Yang Rou realize that she was too flustered, so she even said the wrong greeting.

She couldn't help avoiding Chen Yan's gaze, then pretended not to care and took a sip of water.

Seeing Yang Rou like this, Chen Yan couldn't help but smile.

For some reason, he really likes the "different" Yang Rou now.

Compared with the previous Yang Rou who always wore a mask and made people unable to guess her thoughts, the current Yang Rou is more real and more flesh and blood.

While thinking about this, Chen Yan looked at Yang Rou tenderly, and said, "Sister Rou, are you planning to avoid me like this from now on?"

After the initial panic, Yang Rou gradually recovered her true colors as a strong woman.

She looked up at Chen Yan, then smiled slightly, and said, "No, Mr. Chen."

"I was just too busy just now, so I accidentally said the wrong thing."

"You don't mind."

Seeing Yang Rou like this, Chen Yan couldn't help sighing.

He felt that it was a "thing" to tie the bell to untie the bell, maybe only when he broke through Yang Rou's "defense" again, Yang Rou would not be as contradictory as she is now.

However, Chen Yan never had a good chance.

Maybe, we can talk a little longer tonight and create opportunities for ourselves?

Thinking of this, Chen Yan gradually got a clue.

He said to Yang Rou, "Sister Rou. If you're not busy, let's go out for dinner together. I have something I want to talk to you about."

Hearing what Chen Yan said, Yang Rou looked at the work in her hands, then she hesitated, and said, "Wait for me for two minutes."

Chen Yan said "hmm", went to sit down on the sofa, and waited patiently.

If other women said two minutes, it might be half an hour, but if Yang Rou said two minutes, it must be two minutes.

Two minutes later, Yang Rou tidied up the documents on the table, and then said, "Let's go."

Chen Yan just took out his cell phone.

Hearing Yang Rou's words, he took them back again.

The two went to the Gemini Hotel together.

In the private room specially reserved for Chen Yan, the two chatted about Xu Zhaorong while eating.

When Xu Zhaorong asked Chen Yan before, Chen Yan also asked Yang Rou for analysis.

However, because there are too few clues, Yang Rou can't analyze Xu Zhaorong's purpose.

As a result, this time, maybe Xu Zhaorong really talked too much. Chen Yan didn't say a conclusion, but just recounted the story, and Yang Rou guessed Xu Zhaorong's purpose in an instant.

Her opinion was the same as Chen Yan's, and she also felt that it was false that Xu Zhaorong sincerely took refuge in him, and that it was true that he returned from the dead.

Moreover, perhaps because she knew Xu Zhaorong better, she also felt that the Xu brothers must be on the verge of breaking out, otherwise Xu Zhaorong would not jump off the ship in such a hurry to escape.

With his previous stability, he wouldn't show so many telltale signs.

After hearing this, Chen Yan also agreed deeply.

After exchanging opinions on Xu Zhaorong, the two chatted about the production and distribution of "Wandering Planet".

Maybe because they haven't chatted for a long time, the two chatted until after 10 o'clock in the evening, and then they ended the conversation with some reluctance.

After paying the bill, Chen Yan and Yang Rou went downstairs.

In front of the hotel, Chen Yan looked up at the bright moonlight, then turned to Yang Rou and said, "Sister Rou, what are you doing next?"
