The Ace Producer

Chapter 37 Taking the wrong path

The matter of Bai Qiutang's father was not a secret. Ye Zhen directly asked Sister Yu who was in charge of post-production in the production center. She was also an old man who had been in Rongyu for many years.

"You mean Bai Munian, Teacher Bai?" Sister Yu said on the phone, "Teacher Bai's score is indeed very good, but unfortunately, he has passed away. If you want to find him for post-production score, you can only say that you have no chance."

Ye Zhen paused while playing with the cards in her hand and said, "Teacher Bai should be around fifty, why are you at this age... is he suffering from some serious illness?"

"Yes, I got liver cancer two years ago. A liver transplant was said to cost more than one million yuan. The company also wanted to organize donations. President Yue said she would solve it. Later I heard that the operation was completed, but due to rejection, He died in less than three months, alas.”

Sure enough, Bai Qiutang's father borrowed loan sharks to treat his illness, which was related to Rong Chengyue.

Could it be that Rong Chengyue took the company's money and made loan sharks through Brother Pai. Hearing that Bai Munian was short of money, he found an excuse to trick him?

No, this is unlikely. The rabbit doesn't eat the grass beside its nest. Rong Chengyue shouldn't treat an old employee like this. What's more, as a highly educated CEO of a well-established film and television company in the industry, even if he wanted to make money, Ye Zhen didn't believe that Rong Chengyue would choose such a simple and crude loan sharking method.

At least not until forced by some reason.

There should be a missing link in the middle.

Ye Zhen put down her phone and once again recorded the call between Du Lexin and Rong Chengyue:

"...Mr. Yue, hehe, you can't do what you promised me, so are you planning to kick me out like this?

In the past three years, I have done a lot for Mr. Yue in the distribution department. Mr. Yue knows clearly in his heart that it would be easy for me to leave like this. I am just afraid that so much money will be delayed in the account. If someone else takes over later, it will not be clear. It even bothered Mr. Yue...

Oh, and about the payment on February 13th, do you really think I know nothing about it? I have stored all the evidence that should be stored..."

During this period, Ye Zhen has been trying to find out the "money on February 13th" that Du Lexin said. After all, this sum of money happened to be made the day before Ye Yi's accident. Since Du Lexin can get it Threatening Rong Chengyue, there must be a connection.

Helpless, although Du Lexin was demoted, she was still in charge of the distribution department. This was another piece of evidence she used to manipulate Rong Chengyue, and she held it tightly.

Ye Zhen's identity is only that of a producer, and she has no connection with the company within the company's structure. It's too early to talk about the release of the project, so she can only wait for the opportunity. At this time, looking at Bai Qiutang's affairs together, she found a new clue - "three years" and "so much money was delayed in the account".

Du Lexin serves as the director of the distribution department and is in charge of the distribution of the entire Rong Entertainment film and television project. When he sells things, he will naturally make money.

However, there is one thing that few people outside the industry know, but it is regarded as the default trend in the film and television industry, that is, in many cases, the distribution of movies and TV series does not involve paying one hand and delivering the goods. Most of the money is returned very slowly. Some movies It took a long time after the show and TV were finished before the money arrived in batches.

Therefore, if during this process, Rong Chengyue and Du Lexin team up to delay the payment from the platform to the company for a while, no one will be able to tell.

So, during the time they delayed, where did the money go and what was it used for?

Ye Zhen searched out all of Pai Ge's social accounts and clicked on them. She found that in addition to some gossipy selfies of people having fun and drinking, he had forwarded a lot of funds and securities-related content, and these contents were all from a person named "Golden Finger Analysis" Financial analysis account, the PO owner talks eloquently, and seems to be a senior person in the financial circle.

Working in the financial field has always been a popular choice for mathematics majors, especially in the field of funds and securities. As for the reason, it is probably that most ordinary people rely on experience and stock trading, while mathematicians study stocks as mathematical models.

More rational and precise, the kings of Wall Street are almost all genius mathematicians.

There are many talented people like Master Ye Zhen. Professor Lin herself is a master of stock trading. Although Ye Zhen has no intention of doing this business, after all, it can make money, and she has studied it in depth.

Therefore, after a rough scan, Ye Zhen determined that this "senior person" should be a certain private equity fund manager. He chases the highs and sells the lows in stocks, and is an afterthought. His business skills are average, but he likes to show off his network resources, especially in banks. of.

He not only followed Brother Pai, but also Rong Chengyue.

Wait, bank? Delayed entry... bank loan... capital turnover?

Ye Zhen suddenly remembered an incident from two years ago. One day, Professor Lin called back one of Ye Zhen's graduated seniors to scold him.

Because this senior brother is a private equity fund manager, he uses his sword to take the wrong direction, and he also has the audacity to pull strings and help people with short-term loans.

You know, generally when a company or individual applies for a bank loan, the bank goes through various procedures in accordance with regulations. From the approval to the money being credited, it can take anywhere from ten and a half days to several months at most. This period of time is a torment for those who are eager to use the money. , and you might not be able to survive it.

So, at this time, if there is a short-term loan that can be turned around, and then paid back when the bank loan arrives, it seems to be a win-win deal.

So goes the theory. But in actual practice, the interest rate for such large-amount short-term loans is generally very high, and the debtor needs to bear additional burdens. The borrower is not completely risk-free. For example, the other party may not repay the loan due to certain problems.

Because this behavior itself is somewhat gray, sometimes it is difficult to recover the money.

There was such a big incident two years ago. A well-known large company borrowed money to turn around, defrauded tens of billions of dollars, and then ran away. Ye Zhen's senior brother was also involved. After Professor Lin learned the news, he was so angry that he immediately took him back and scolded him. Fortunately, the brother was not involved much, so he did not lose his entire family due to the compensation.

Seeing that the time was only around eight o'clock, Professor Lin should still be awake at this time, so Ye Zhen made a call to Professor Lin.

Professor Lin answered the phone and was quite happy: "Hey, why did you call me suddenly? You have finished your work over there and are you planning to go back to the Academy of Sciences?"

"No, I just suddenly missed you and my wife and wanted to make a phone call." Ye Zhen has been following Professor Lin since she was sixteen or seventeen years old. She occasionally acts like a spoiled child, but Professor Lin still does this. Hearing this, he happily chatted a few words about home affairs. , Ye Zhen said again, "By the way, Professor, I actually want to ask you some gossip."

"That's all I'm saying, you girl, how can you think of me, an old man, when you have nothing to do?" Professor Lin snorted softly and said, "Tell me, what's the matter?"

"After Rong Chengjue took charge of Rong Yu, there was a lot of commotion. Did Rong Chengyue stir up some big trouble before?"

"Oh, what did you see? Tell me." Professor Lin said in a class Q\u0026A tone.

Ye Zhen then explained the characteristics of repayments in the film and television industry, and then analyzed Rong Yu's abnormal stock price changes and financial reports, and then said: "I guess she had financial problems and she couldn't get the money back after she took it away. The company doesn’t even have the money to start new projects.”

"Well, that's good. She's quite thoughtful when she goes out to see things." Professor Lin praised her, which meant she was positive, and added, "She fell into the same trap as your senior brother Zeng. But she is serious Too much, embezzling public funds, keeping it secret for so long, tearing down the east wall to repair the west wall, it’s a mess, if she hadn’t had the same surname as Rong Cheng, I’m afraid Jianguo would have given her a job by now.”

Jianguo is the name of Rong Cheng's father, and Professor Lin knows this firsthand.

It seems that she expected it well. Rong Chengyue did fall into trouble because of short-term loans two years ago, and things became more and more chaotic. She even dared to deal with loan sharks for money. In "The Prosperous Tang Dynasty", he could be greedy for as much money as he wanted, so much so that he was discovered by Ye Yi and the quarrel reached the point of breaking up.

I just don’t know how much she did regarding Ye Yi’s death.

Saying she was innocent, saying it was just a coincidence, Ye Zhen would never believe it at this point.

Ye Zhen held her cell phone and her thoughts were racing. It wasn't until Professor Lin suspected that there was no signal on the other end that she suppressed her thoughts and continued what she just said: "Let me tell you, I feel that the atmosphere in the company is weird. Sure enough, It’s Rong Chengyue’s problem.”

"I think it's not the atmosphere in the company that's weird, but the atmosphere in Rongcheng's family, right?" Professor Lin joked, "Jianguo called me today to get some news. He said that Ajue is chasing you every day. How long, you girl, are you going to keep this secret from me? Didn’t you just go to Rongyu just because of this kid? "

Can you think of doing this together? Ye Zhen felt so tired: "Professor, you have misunderstood..."

"Don't worry, don't worry, no matter how you take the initiative, we won't lose the battle. The teacher will help you get through it." Professor Lin coughed, and said with confidence, "I'm just saying, my students are good at everything. His son doesn’t deserve it, hahaha——”
