Chapter 238 Is This the Virtue of All Lesbians?
"You mean, let me buy some theaters?"
When Qiao An said this idea, Jin Xiantai was taken aback.
To be honest, he didn't think about this issue at all. After all, buying theaters is troublesome and expensive. It's not as easy as just making animated movies.
Joan nodded, his expression became serious.
Little Keke, who was making trouble behind her, saw that she and her father were talking about business again, so she obediently stopped making trouble, and ran away to play with the dogs.
"Yes, to acquire and operate our own theater chain, so that we don't have to look at the faces of those theater bosses, and the most important thing is that we will have greater initiative."
Although he didn't want to tell Jin Xiantai some disturbing things, Qiao An saw that his little boss didn't understand anything, so he thought it was the most correct to talk to him.
After all, she had to let Kim Hyun-tae understand how passive the future would be without the theaters in her hands.
More importantly, Qiao An knew that Kim Hyun-tae now had enough cash in hand to support him in carrying out this plan.
For someone like Joan, she knows exactly what money is.
The money in the bank is nothing more than useless waste paper. It is only useful if you use the money to buy something that can give you more power.
The acquisition of some theaters is the first step.
Of course, Joann's idea was mentioned to Annie who was waiting to give birth in New York, and she was affirmed and supported by Annie.
It is precisely because of Anne's support that she will implement this plan.
"My little boss, obviously you still don't know how passive you will be in the competition in the future if you don't master the hospitalization line. If you don't produce a work, it will definitely be used for screening.
At least tens of thousands of works are buried in Hollywood every year because they cannot be released. You obviously don't know about this, right? "
Faced with Qiao An's words, Jin Xiantai really couldn't say a word, because what she said was right, and he really didn't know these things.
"Why is this happening?"
Jin 〗◀, Xiantai is not ashamed to ask, since he doesn’t understand what’s in it, he should ask with an open mind, he doesn’t think there is anything shameful about it.
Joan sat there, looked at Jin Xiantai and said, "It's very simple. More than 60% of the theaters in the United States are basically in the hands of major Hollywood film and television companies. Only 40% of the theaters have nothing to do with them."
But even if there is no involvement, the 40% of theaters still depend on the faces of these film and television companies. Therefore, once these large film and television companies join forces to overstock a company, it will be difficult for this company to survive in the film and television industry.
You don't need too many means, as long as the theaters don't arrange films for you, it's very simple, isn't it? "
After listening to Qiao An's words, Jin Xiantai thought about it secretly in his heart, and he found that what Qiao An said was very true.
Just imagine, I have invested millions or even tens of millions to shoot a film. However, it was found that after filming, there was no way to show it in theaters, which means that the funds invested were completely wasted.
Just such a hand,
Enough to make a lot of people penniless and quit Hollywood as a place.
Why are several major film and television companies in Hollywood still standing? How many small companies have they squeezed out behind this, to have such a status today.
You know, Hollywood's cake is so big, one more person will get an extra piece.
It would be great if there were no points.
Such thoughts. People will have it, let alone those capitalists.
Kim Hyun Tae is not stupid, it's just that he doesn't understand the reason. But listen to what Joan said. How could he not understand.
"You mean, they will exclude me in the future?"
Kim Hyun-tae asked uncertainly.
Facing Kim Hyun-tae's uncertain question, Qiao An gave a very positive answer: "I will definitely do this, please don't doubt it. American capitalists are all of this virtue, otherwise they would not be able to make so much money. "
Well, it seems that I am still too simple, and I don't understand many things so well.
Jin Xiantai shook his head with a wry smile, and at the same time secretly laughed at himself in his heart.
"Little boss, you don't have to be so distressed. In fact, with your current funds, it is still easy to solve this problem. You just need to buy a theater chain. With your own theater chain, those guys want to squeeze you out. Easy."
The solution proposed by Qiao An is very simple, or buy a theater chain of his own.
Jin Xiantai looked at Qiao An and said to her: "Who would be so stupid to sell his theater chain. Even if it is sold, those film and television companies will join in. How can it be cheaper for me."
It can be heard that his little boss has entered the state, and he can already consider many things.
Joan was very pleased with this.
But it seems that my little boss is a little pessimistic about this. This is not a good sign.
While pleased with Kim Hyun-tae's reaction, Qiao An felt that Kim Hyun-tae was too pessimistic.
"I got the exact news that there is a small theater chain that is going to be sold. The operator of this theater chain recently lost money in stocks and owed a large loan to the bank, so the bank decided to put his theater chain on sale. Take it out for auction."
Joan told Kim Hyun-tae this news at this time.
"Oh, is there such a good thing? How many theaters does he run in total?"
Hearing what Qiao An said, Jin Xiantai was really interested.
You know, he can now have more than 100 billion US dollars in cash, and it is really not difficult for him to use some of it to acquire a theater.
Besides, what Qiao An said was very clear, how could he not know how passive he would be in the future without the theater chain in his hands.
As far as the animation production company is concerned, it is obviously a steady stream of cash cows if it is well managed, so there is no reason for Kim Hyun Tae to give up, unless he is an idiot.
"There are a total of 3,000 theaters, and these theaters are all built in large cities, not the kind of theaters in small second- and third-tier cities. The passenger flow is very guaranteed."
Well!
If it is as Joan said, then this is really a good opportunity.
Kim Hyun-tae is not stupid, he immediately understood what a rare opportunity this is.
3000 theaters. That's not too small.
In this time and space, there are only 120,000 movie theaters in the entire United States.
Then this theater line has only 3,000 theaters, which is only 1/40 of the total number, not even 10% of the total number.
But even so, as long as you master this theater chain, you can make yourself invincible, and you don't have to worry about being squeezed out by those large film and television companies in the future, right?
Regarding this point, after Qiao An's reminder, Jin Xiantai was able to think of it.
"What's the auction price? How many competitors will there be?"
Jin Xiantai came back to his senses and asked Qiao An.
Qiao An replied: "The bank's price is 3.2 billion. As far as I know, all major Hollywood film and television companies are interested in this theater line. But as long as the boss is willing to spend a lot of money, it shouldn't be a problem to acquire this theater line .”
Because he knew how much money his little boss had now, Qiao An believed that the acquisition of this theater chain still had a great possibility of success.
"How much do you expect me to spend to get this theater?"
As soon as Qiao An finished speaking, Jin Xiantai continued to ask.
"8 billion US dollars, after all, there are too many competitors." Joan thought for a while. Give an estimate of your own cost.
$8 billion?
Jin Xiantai began to weigh in his heart to acquire a small theater chain with 3,000 theaters, and soon he made a decision.
Even if it is a small theater chain, Kim Hyun-tae feels that it can be acquired. Still very necessary.
After all, he didn't want to leave any hidden dangers for the future.
Besides, he is not short of money now, so why not think about it.
"Okay! No problem, I will pay the money. When will the bank start this matter?"
Kim Hyun Tae has decided. Ask Joan when the auction starts.
Joan replied: "The auction hosted by Whiston Bank will be at the Beverly Hills Hotel at 9 o'clock in the morning the day after tomorrow."
The day after tomorrow is Thursday. There are still classes at the college, so it is impossible for me to ask for leave.
After thinking about it for a while, Jin Xiantai said to Qiao An: "Then leave this matter to you, I have to go to class the day after tomorrow."
Joan nodded upon hearing the words: "Don't worry, I will definitely take down this theater."
ha!
With regard to the auction hosted by Whiston Bank, can Kim Hyun-tae fail to win this theater chain?
Qiao An, who knew the tricks in it, thought it was simply impossible.
That's why Joan answered so confidently.
"By the way, I heard that many theater owners have lost money in the stock market. Therefore, I think it is very necessary for you, boss, to prepare some cash. Maybe in the future, those guys who lost money in the stock market, They are going to auction off the theaters they run to pay off their debts."
Finally, Qiao An told Jin Xiantai another gossip.
But in fact, Annie told Joan these news, and then asked her to remind Jin Xiantai to pay attention.
After all, some theater owners who entered the stock market borrowed money from Whiston Bank. That's why Annie knows their financial situation so well.
Especially when Annie was still 'black-hearted' when the other party lost money, she began to force the other party to repay the debt.
And Annie did it all for Kim Hyun-tae.
"Why, isn't the stock market going very well now? I remember that Internet concept stocks are not so popular now. Why are these people losing money?"
Jin Xiantai nodded, expressing that he would pay attention to this situation, and at the same time asked about it curiously.
Qiao An curled her lips: "There are too many bubbles in Internet concept stocks, and they have fallen sharply recently. Many Internet technology-related stocks have fallen by more than 20 times, so many people have lost badly."
After speaking, Joan added: "I also lost a lot of money. Like those fools, I am also a victim."
ha!
Unexpectedly, Qiao An also bought Internet technology concept stocks.
Seeing Joan's sullen look, Jin Xiantai suddenly thought she was cute.
Mmm, lovely lace trim.
Qiao An looked up at Jin Xiantai: "Boss, if QQ goes public in the future, you must subscribe for some instant messaging stocks for me. I'm very optimistic about it."
puff!
Jin Xiantai couldn't help laughing, and said to Qiao An with a funny face: "I don't have this plan, so you must be disappointed. But I can give you a salary increase, so it can be regarded as making up for your loss." .”
Qiao An showed a disappointed look upon hearing this, frowning bitterly.
"Oh, how can you pick up girls if you have no money? Girls nowadays are too realistic."
This lace edge!
Listening to Qiao An's words, Jin Xiantai really couldn't laugh or cry.
"Are you good at picking up girls?"
"It's just spending money. As long as there is money, there will be girls. If there is no money, there will be no girls."
Joan sat there dejectedly, and started talking with Kim Hyun-tae about picking up girls.
The scene seemed a little weird for a while.
It's normal for two men to talk about this topic.
But the problem is talking about this issue with Kim Hyun Tae now. It was a bit weird that it was a woman.
"Hey, I said you're not looking for a decent person, right? Could it be that you're looking for a street girl?"
Although Jin Xiantai felt that it was not good to talk about this topic with Qiao An, he still couldn't help but be curious.
Qiao An squinted at Jin Xiantai: "Is my taste that low? I can't understand it with a man like you. Is it really hard for a woman like me to pick up girls without money? After all, my sexual orientation is different from ordinary people. , so the economic foundation must be good.”
"Then what kind of girl do you like?"
The soul of Kim Hyun-tae's gossip is burning.
After thinking for a while, Joan replied: "The figure should be good, a bit domineering. This is my ultimate ideal type of girl, but such girls are still in the minority. Recently, I met a fitness trainer, a German girl. Her age is also He's only 19 years old, so his figure is really nothing to say."
When talking about the fitness trainer she met recently, Joan's face lit up, and now she looks no different from the wretched man. The difference is that she is a woman.
"It's just that this girl is so money-worshipping that I can't bear it. If I don't meet some of her material needs. She won't sleep with me at night, which troubles me a lot."
Ha ha ha ha!
I'm dying of laughter, Joanne, you are so funny.
Kim Hyun Tae couldn't help laughing out loud.
At this moment, Joan looks no different from a big man, although she is very beautiful and looks petite.
But such a woman is a lesbian, and she is troubled by women just like men.
Looking at Qiao An in front of him, Jin Xiantai really felt amused.
Of course, he didn't mean to look down on Joan at all, after all, he respected individual sexual orientation.
"I'm curious, when you were with that girl, who was t and who was o?"
Under Qiao An's gaze, Jin Xiantai held back his smile, but he still asked a very gossip question.
Joan raised his right thumb and index finger to touch it.
Kim Hyun-tae understands, Qiao An is still an 'o'.
"I feel like I'm a good-for-nothing woman with a pretty face, and it bothers me so much."
Putting down his right hand, Joan said another word.
Ouch!
Hahaha!
Joan, please don't be so funny.
Kim Hyun-tae lay on the lawn with his stomach in his hands, he really burst out laughing.
Looking at Kim Hyun-tae who was rolling with laughter, Qiao An rolled her eyes, she didn't know what was funny about her own affairs.
After a while, Jin Xiantai held back his smile again, and sat up straight again.
"Have you always picked up girls like this?"
Joan nodded, with a lonely expression on his face.
"Yes, I have been with girls like this since junior high, because I found that if I didn't have money, I couldn't find a girl who would like to be with me."
Jin Xiantai couldn't laugh anymore, he suddenly felt that Qiao An was actually quite pitiful.
It's just too sad for a woman like her to rely on money to find her other half, okay?
Even Kim Hyun-tae could imagine how many of the girls she was looking for were sincerely with her.
Maybe, just use her as a cash machine.
Thinking of this, Jin Xiantai felt that Qiao An was a little pitiful, even sad.
"I think your thinking is wrong. You should find your significant other with your heart instead of putting your hope on money. In fact, you can try it and find a female partner without money."
At this time, Jin Xiantai also gave Joan a suggestion.
Qiao An took a serious look at Jin Xiantai. From his eyes, Qiao An saw sincerity without a trace of affectation. Therefore, he realized that it was really for his own good that he made such a suggestion, and he didn't look down on it at all. own meaning.
You know, because of her sexual orientation, Qiao An has always felt inferior in her heart.
Therefore, while Joan was very moved by the suggestion of his own little boss, he also felt a little warm.
"Forget it, I think it's more convenient to use money, at least those girls can quickly enter the critical steps."
His heart was warm, but he said something that made Jin Xiantai choke.
Hey! You little lesbian, you really don't understand.
Kim Hyun-tae, who was choked, complained endlessly in his heart.
Looking at the time, it was already past 21 o'clock in the evening, and it was getting late. Jin Xiantai and Qiao An chatted for a while.
Greeting his daughter, Jin Xiantai hugged Keke and sent Qiao An to the car.
Lying by the car window, Jin Xiantai said to Qiao An: "The girl named Hui Ni, go get in touch with her and have a look. If there is no problem, sign it. I will leave the theater to you. Then give me a check." Just make a phone call. You can also help me deal with other matters, so it’s a lot of trouble.”
Qiao An, who was sitting in the car, nodded again and again: "Don't worry, it's okay to leave everything to me. By the way, the girl named Hui Ni is not bad. If it's okay for me to attack her?"
Jin Xiantai rolled his eyes and remained silent. He really couldn't answer this question.
Seeing that Jin Xiantai was silent, Qiao An smiled and started the car.
Looking at Qiao An who was driving away in the car, Kim Hyun-tae thought to himself: "Is it true that all lace is like this? There is one at home, and you have to look for it outside. This is just like a playboy." (To be continued.)uw
