Reborn as the richest man in India

Chapter 119 Earn hundreds of thousands of dollars more than in China

When Qiaogo arrived at the hotel where the Americans were staying, he heard someone arguing in English.

Are these guys too energetic?

The last time I saw him, he was quarreling with someone, and now he's quarreling again.

Adela was already here. After seeing Qiaogo, he hurried over and explained the current situation to him in detail.

Americans are making trouble in hotels because the hotel room prices have increased a bit, which means they don't have enough money for accommodation.

It's quite sad to say that these guys have limited funds. Not to mention that they didn't earn a penny from their trip to India. They paid for the round trip and expenses all out of their own pockets. Now their pockets are really empty.

"Mr. Brown, can you please take a moment to speak?" Qiao Ge walked into the hotel lobby and saw a tall blond man negotiating with hotel staff in an emotional manner.

"We need accommodation. Yesterday's price, do you understand?" While Brown was talking, he suddenly heard someone calling him from behind. He turned around and was about to scold the person severely. Needless to say, he must also be a hotel employee. He was too bullying.

"You?" But when he saw the person clearly, he was a little confused. The guy in front of him was not old. He didn't look like someone from the hotel.

"I want to talk to you about business cooperation." Jogo smiled, "My name is Jogo Gupta."

Brown laughed angrily. Where did this kid come from to discuss business with him? Are you kidding yourself?

He was in no mood for jokes now.

Suddenly, a woman next to him came to Brown and whispered a few times.

"Are you the youngest billionaire, Jogo Gupta, with a net worth of 1 billion rupees?" Brown was a little surprised. His assistant just reminded him that this young man in front of him is extraordinary.

He has been in India for a while, but he doesn't pay much attention to the news in India. His main focus is still on negotiating with the other party about remuneration, but it doesn't mean that other people in the team don't pay attention.

He had also heard news about Qiao Ge from people in the team. Qiao Ge's experience of making a fortune was indeed legendary, and even foreigners like them were amazed.

"Are you the manager here? Can you borrow a reception room?" Qiao Ge looked at the hotel manager with a smile.

The manager disagreed, he was extremely enthusiastic.

Who doesn't know Qiao Ge's identity? Moreover, this group of foreigners are making trouble here, and he, the manager, is in trouble.

If Qiao Ge can appease this group of people, what's the point of borrowing a place to discuss business?

a piece of cake.

In a reception room arranged by the hotel, Qiaogo went straight to the point and invited Brown and the others to join him in the filming of his TV series.

"Mr. Gupta, we are professional in special effects. Even in the United States, we are a top team~~" Brown said loudly, but when he saw Qiaogo staring at him with a smile, his eyes seemed a little playful, He couldn't help but cough lightly, "Of course, there is still a gap between us and the top teams, but our technology is absolutely excellent and not much different from theirs. The main thing is in terms of hardware equipment. Their special effects production hardware equipment is much more advanced than mine." , at least two generations ahead.”

"So, your equipment is very backward?" Qiao Ge asked.

Qiao Ge's words made Brown blush. He was angry. He didn't like hearing these words.

"Mr. Gupta, our production equipment is the most advanced in India. If you don't believe me, go look for it and see if you can find it?" Brown retorted.

Qiao Ge believes that this is the current gap between domestic and foreign countries, and the gap is very large.

Even though the machines and equipment in Brown's hands are all second-hand, they still have an advantage here.

"I believe it, can we talk about the price?" Qiao Ge asked with a smile.

"You Indians have no integrity and we have nothing to talk about," Brown said immediately.

"Mr. Brown, I know you have been deceived. You can say that other people have no integrity, but you can't say that about me, because I am very honest, at least everyone who has come in contact with me says so." Qiao Ge said, " Moreover, if you are sitting here now, don't you mean that you are willing to talk? If you really don't want to talk, then please do it yourself."

Brown stood up suddenly and was about to walk towards the door.

But his female assistant hurriedly ran over and caught him.

"Mr. Gupta, don't mind, he~~ he needs to go to the bathroom." The female assistant dragged Brown out.

Qiao Ge couldn't help but snorted in his heart, why are you still showing off here?

What are you pretending to be? I really don’t want to talk about it. There is no need to sit here with me.

Moreover, they were deceived and were in a bad mood. How could they vent their anger on themselves?

I didn't come here to be a masochist.

However, he didn't want to let this matter go south. The skills of this group of people were still excellent, which had been confirmed by Uncle Adela.

They are considered a small team. As Brown said, their special effects hardware equipment is indeed average in the United States and is still a bit behind.

It’s not that their technology isn’t good, it’s that the special effects industry also requires a lot of investment, at least the hardware aspect is very important.

They don't have the funds, so they can only make some small productions, which don't make much money. In addition, the competition is too fierce, and they can't survive.

Just as India came to the door, they came.

Qiao Ge roughly understands that today's special effects are still very rudimentary compared to previous generations. With the addition of computer applications, we will step by step towards digital technology, CG technology, etc., and special effects will develop explosively.

Those Hollywood blockbusters in the previous life required thousands of special effects staff to participate in the production, and the special effects cost may account for more than 50% of the total cost of the film. In China, the main cost is the star's salary. How much money is left for special effects? I don’t even want to complain about the 50 cents special effects, it’s surprising if the movie is good.

Five minutes later, Brown and the female assistant came back.

"Mr. Gupta, I'm so sorry. I lost my temper just now." Brown apologized after returning.

"Mr. Brown, I can understand your mood. You were indeed deceived miserably this time, but you can't just think that everyone is a liar just because you were deceived once, right?" Qiao Ge said.

His attitude is okay, he seems to have figured it out.

"Yes, I am too extreme. Can we talk about cooperation now?" Brown asked.

The reason why they are preparing to return home today is because the Indians were so abominable. They were originally offered a 30% discount, but they pinched their noses and accepted it, otherwise they would lose money if they went back like this.

Unexpectedly, after just two days of work, the other party asked them for a discount again. It had to be discounted, and it was only 10% of the original price.

This is unbearable. After deducting various expenses, it is equivalent to working in vain during this time.

So they got angry and gave up their job, preferring to return home at a loss on the round trip expenses.

However, their foundation is weak. If they don't receive work immediately when they return, their funds will be exhausted and their team may break up.

Now that Qiao Ge came to the door, of course they wanted to try again. Why did they come here? It would be good to make a business, even if they made less money.

Of course, Brown realized that he was too impulsive just now. Fortunately, the other party was generous and didn't care. Otherwise, wouldn't this business be over again?

After an hour of negotiation, the two parties finally reached an agreement.

The rewards given to them by Qiao Ge are a little different from the previous ones.

If they do special effects for a movie, they will calculate the cost based on the investment cost of the movie and the difficulty of the special effects.

Qiao Ge is a TV series this time, which is a little different from the movie, that is, the shooting time span is definitely longer than the movie. After all, it needs to be shot episode by episode and played while playing, and the time span will be longer.

So Jogo gave Brown and the others a guaranteed salary, ranging from 3,000 to 10,000 US dollars per person per month depending on the position. For the time being, based on three months, the total cost is about 200,000 US dollars.

The current per capita annual income in the United States is less than 20,000 US dollars, and the monthly salary is a little more than 1,600 US dollars. Brown and the others are quite satisfied with Jogo's guaranteed salary, which has almost doubled for everyone.

As for the special effects production cost of the TV series, Qiao Ge guarantees that it will be at least US$200,000, based on 50 episodes.

When Brown was deceived, the price offered by the other party was US$1 million. He thought he had made a lot of money, because the requirements for special effects here were obviously not too high. With their technology, they can usually complete the special effects in one month. , who could have imagined falling into a deep pit.

They were able to earn about 400,000 US dollars from Qiao Ge. In three months, although it took a little longer than they and others expected, it was still more than 100,000 US dollars more than their income at home, which is considered a good amount. Fortunately among misfortunes.

In order to dispel their doubts and take into account their actual difficulties, Qiaogo promised to pay them US$100,000 in advance, but he put forward a condition, hoping that they could bring some special effects industry personnel from India, and Brown agreed.

Qiao Ge definitely needs to build some special effects team of his own. Now that there are experts here, wouldn't he be a fool not to learn from his masters?

As for the special effects team in India, Qiao Ge believes that they can definitely recruit it. After all, Bollywood is here and there are many people engaged in this industry.

Qiao Ge paid for Brown and his family to stay in this hotel first, and then he planned to rent another one for Brown and his family to live in the villa area where his parents rented.

Both the cost and the environment are better than the hotel. After all, Brown and the others still need to work, so the villa is quite suitable.

"Where's Tapu?" Qiaogo returned to the car and found that Tapu was not there.

He and Adela went in together just now, and Tapu was waiting in the car.

"Boss, Miss is in that car." The driver said.

Qiao Ge looked towards a very ordinary Tata car not far away.

"This is this?" Qiao Ge's eyes lit up. This car seemed familiar.

Adela noticed from the side: "My niece's car."

Qiao Ge immediately came back to his senses: "Is she there too? Then I have to thank her properly. If it weren't for her this time, I wouldn't have known that Brown and the others were back."

Adela smiled: "Let's go, I'll go with you."

Walking to Xili Daiyu's car, Tapu opened the door and got out.

The car window was lowered halfway, but Xili Daiyu did not get out of the car. A silk scarf wrapped her head, half covering her face, only revealing a pair of big and smart eyes.

She is a big star, and if she is seen here, she may cause a commotion, so even in the car, she must cover her face to avoid unnecessary trouble.

"Thank you this time~~." Qiao Ge paused for a moment, how should he address the other person?

"Just call me sister." Xili Daiyu chuckled, "We met last time. I didn't expect you to be the business wizard who has been frequently reported in newspapers recently."

"You still remember. But those business wizards are just nonsense in the newspapers. Don't take it seriously." Qiao Ge said with a smile, "Thank you so much, sister, for your help this time."

"You're welcome. It seems that things are going well, so I'm relieved." Siridea replied, "Uncle Adela, do you want me to take you home?"

"No, I drove here by myself. Please pay attention to safety when you go back." Adela warned.

Xili Daiyu shook her head slightly in agreement, and then looked at Qiao Ge and Tapu: "Well, little brother Qiaogo, little sister Tapu, see you next time."

Everyone dispersed, and Qiaogo sent Tapu home.

"Little brother Qiao Ge, hehe~~" Tapu couldn't help but smile thinking about what Xili Daiyu had called Qiao Ge at that time.

"I'm not young, little sister Tapu."

"I'm not young either."

Qiao Ge was stunned for a moment, his eyes fell on Tapu's chest for a moment and then quickly retracted. These two words obviously have many meanings.

"Qiao Ge, do you know? Sister Xili Daiyu signed it for me. Do you want to see it?" Tapu took out a book as if to offer a treasure, with Xili Daiyu's signature on it.

Following Tapu's words, Qiaogo finally knew what was going on.

Tapu was a little bored in the car, so he lowered the window to get some air, and then he was seen by Xili Daiyu.

Xili Daiyu was actually here a long time ago. When Qiao Ge and his car came over, she saw it.

So I knew that Tapu was from Qiaogo. When I saw a little girl, I called her over to talk.

"You really need to thank Sister Xili Daiyu very much." Tapu said.

"Of course." Qiao Ge smiled, "If she needs any help in the future, I will go there without saying anything."

"What's wrong with a big star like Sister Xili Daiyu? There are so many people who will help, so just forget it." Tapu said with a smile.

Having said that, Tapu still feels that Qiao Ge is very powerful. People in Bollywood are very realistic. If you really need help from someone, you have to pay the corresponding price.

Even a big star cannot say that he is completely satisfied in Bollywood. There are too many bad things.

Therefore, Qiao Ge might actually be able to help in the future, and he has a lot of energy.

Qiao Ge knew that Tapu was a fan of Xili Daiyu. Now that he got an autograph and chatted with his idol, the little girl was very happy now.

When sending Tapu upstairs, Qiao Ge learned his lesson this time and started talking on the corner platform of the stairs from the second floor to the third floor.

After the first, second, and third time, I wasn’t so resistant.

Tapu's nervous and unfamiliar response pleased Jogo very much.

He originally wanted to take the opportunity to climb to the top, but Tapu noticed it. The little girl was flexible and managed to avoid it.

Unable to succeed, Qiao Ge was still unfulfilled, but he had no choice but to lament that good things had taken a long time.
