  Chapter 484 No nutritious dinner

   "I want to make a costume drama."

   Regarding this, Wang Jing already had an idea.

  The three TV series he previously directed, Love 1, Love 2, and Stars are all urban dramas, and Wang Jing needs to seek a breakthrough in costume dramas.

  The best thing is that the company will increase investment and allow him to complete a large-scale costume drama by making a movie.

  If he has the experience of shooting blockbuster costume movies, he will definitely make great progress in film shooting, and Wang Jing can enter the big screen again and establish himself as a big director.

   "Costume drama?"

  After listening to the other party's request, Zhou Anan immediately flashed "Huanhuan Zhuan", "Gong", and "Wu Zetian" in his mind.

  For Zhou Anan, an otaku who only accompanied his sister to follow popular dramas in his previous life, the costume dramas he can remember are basically guaranteed ratings.

  However, Zhou Anan turned around in his mind, and still felt that there was a drama that was most suitable for director Wang Da who was looking for a breakthrough.

Of course, Zhou Anan wasn't sure if the copyright of that drama was still in existence, and whether the original book had already been published, so he gave a basic answer: "Okay, I'll ask someone to select a few scripts and create a big costume drama for Director Wang." .”

   "Thank you Mr. Zhou."

  Received the reply from the big boss, Wang Jin was heartbroken and raised his glass gratefully.

  Separated from director Wang Da, Zhou Anan called the beautiful secretary and gave some instructions.

  After finishing the third task of the day, and it was still very early before the scheduled dinner, Zhou Anan moved forward with the follow-up work and went to the headquarters of Qinglan Company.

   Seeing Wang Rong again, Zhou An'an noticed that the other party's face was a little haggard, but he was in good spirits, so he let go of his extra worries.

  Man, with a career, any love wound can be healed.

  Qing Lan held a meeting of all shareholders today, and the two eldest ladies were also there.

  This meeting mainly discusses Qinglan's plan for the next half year.

  Actually, there is no nutritious topic, and it only reflects the will of Zhou Anan, the major shareholder.

   "Let's take a loan, the pace of next year can be a little slower."

  After listening to the reports of General Manager Wang and Vice President Gu, Zhou Anan gave the same suggestion as the previous meeting regarding their opinions.

  Qing Lan’s directly-operated stores, Hong Kong Kee Tea Drinks, and No. 1 Chicken Chop. The profits of the three brands are quite considerable, but Qing Lan can’t stop spending money to buy stores and build direct-operated stores.

  Qinglan’s directly-operated stores have expanded to 140, of which 135 stores are directly bought by the company, most of which are in the city center, and the cost of funds has exceeded 200 million.

  Last month and the first half of this month alone, the cost of buying a store cost more than 30 million yuan.

  Now the company still owes the bank a loan of 10 million yuan, but in addition to the usual expenses in the company account, there is no extra money to expand the directly-operated stores.

  The conservative and prudent Vice President Gu repeated the old tune, wanting to slow down the speed of buying stores, and suggested that the expansion should be mainly leasing for the time being, supplemented by purchases.

  Unfortunately, under the strong pressure of the major shareholder Zhou An'an and the tacit support of the other shareholders, the meeting still passed the plan to speed up the purchase of stores with a large loan.

  For Vice President Gu, seeing high-quality company assets begin to turn into negative assets makes him feel very sad.

  For Zhou Anan, every time he came to Qinglan for a meeting, he had to suppress Vice President Gu's steady style, and he was very tired.

  However, as long as he lasts until next year, he doesn't have to worry too much.

   "An'an, do you have a banquet tonight?"

  After the meeting ended, Yu Xian'er, who hadn't expressed any opinions during the whole process, asked for no reason.

   "Yes, have a meal with Mr. Mai of TX and the heads of several financing companies."

   Zhou Anan simply answered this question.

   Both of them are shareholders of the celebrity network, so there is no need to hide this itinerary that is not a commercial secret.

  However, those reporters really want to dig out inside information, and there are quite a few reporters lurking around the celebrity network company.

   Fortunately, Zhou Anan is very low-key, and most of the attention is focused on Qi Liang, the CEO who is in charge of daily management.

  In China, making a fortune should be low-key.

   "It's just right, I have something to do tonight, and Xiaoxiao has nowhere to go. Xiaoxiao and Mr. Mai are familiar, let her go with you."

   Regarding this matter, Yu Xian'er naturally arranged for her best friend.

  Wang Xiaoxiao, who was thinking about what to have for dinner, widened her eyes a little when she heard her friend's arrangement, but she didn't refute.

   Several big bosses eat together, they should, maybe, may eat well.

   Just in time, after dinner, she can go shopping with the doll mobile hanger, she has already thought of the reason.

"Row."

   Glancing at Miss Wang who was watching over, Zhou Anan agreed indifferently.

   Seeing that little brother An agreed, Yu Xian'er directly left her best friend who couldn't drive, and left first.

  Compared to her more relaxed girlfriends, Yu Xianer's time has been fully arranged since she took the initiative to take over part of the family business.

   "An'an, where are we going for dinner?"

   Sitting in the car, Wang Xiaoxiao, who was wearing a seat belt, asked.

   "Dongbao Hotel."

  Thinking about the report from the beautiful secretary earlier, Zhou Anan said where to have dinner.

  Originally, Zhou Anan wanted to stay at the tea house on the shore, after all, Mr. Mai also liked the refreshments there.

  However, considering that the heads of the other two big companies were not familiar with each other very well, Zhou Anan followed the advice of the professionals to show his dignity, and booked a 99999 set meal at the Dongbao Hotel.

  Whether in his previous life or in this life, Zhou Anan has never eaten a dinner with tens of thousands of tables, let alone a 99999 set meal. He is also a little looking forward to it.

   "Dongbao Hotel, I heard that the buffet there is pretty good."

   "We eat in the box."

   "Oh (second tone)."

   "It seems that the 99999 seafood feast is ordered."

   "Oh (fourth tone)."

   Chatting all the way, the car quickly entered the underground parking lot of Dongbao Hotel.

  It is still 4:50, and there is still some time before the agreed 5:30. In order to show respect, Zhou Anan still needs to arrive early.

  In terms of size, whether it is TX, Excalibur Capital, Qiandu, or Hard Silver, they are all big brothers of the celebrity network. They hold real tens of billions of funds in their hands, and they are famous in the capital market.

  Comparatively speaking, a celebrity network with only virtual valuations can only be regarded as a younger brother who has just entered this industry.

   "No one came."

   Entering the box, she found that no one else was there except the waiter standing next to her, so Wang Xiaoxiao took aim at the cold dishes already on the table.

  Ten cold dishes with unique shapes, which look very appetizing.

   "Add duck tongue and cucumber, and a freshly squeezed orange juice."

   Fearing that Miss Wang would be idle and bored, Zhou Anan, who also had a little appetite, said something to the waiter at the side.

   A while later, sitting in the sofa area waiting for customers, Wang Xiaoxiao ate the extra cold dish with a little restraint, paired with freshly squeezed juice, which seemed to taste pretty good.

   Zhou Anan, on the other hand, sat quietly by the side, drinking plain water, and stopped by to catch his breath.

  Although he brushed his teeth specially before coming here, and even ate two pieces of chewing gum in a five-pack, he still needs a little more respect when facing several bigwigs in the financial world.

  Perhaps in order to show that he valued the celebrity network, at around 5:20, the beautiful secretary hurriedly led the four company executives into the box.

The representative of TX is naturally Mr. Mai, who is already quite familiar with and has interests. Excalibur Capital with European and American backgrounds is attended by a beautiful blond girl in her thirties. The person in charge of Hard Silver Capital is a slightly mature A middle-aged man in Asia, represented by Qiandu is an ordinary young woman wearing a formal work skirt.

   Zhou An'an's eyes stayed on the blonde girl who was at a mature age for a while, mostly under the coordination of Mr. Mai, he chatted happily with everyone present.

   Except for Zhou Anan, the other company representatives are all alone.

  Miss Wang has a hidden shareholding, and Zhou Anan did not introduce her shareholder status, only saying that she is a person in charge of the company, and no one will care about this detail. The banquet tonight does not involve any secret content.

  What's more, companies that can enter the final A round of financing are not fools.

   There is actually no 'nutrition' to talk about eating in several companies. It is nothing more than chatting and increasing familiarity with each other.

   Specifically related to the company's formal cooperation, it is a special department team responsible for it, and will not be discussed at the wine table.

   This kind of banquet is not very effective, but it is indispensable in shopping malls.

   After all, Huaxia is a society of personal relationships, and the rest of the foreign companies have to follow the Romans.

  Of course, if there is an opportunity for cooperation between various companies, everyone can also set a tone.

  For example, when the person in charge of Hardbank chatted with the person in charge of Qiandu, they set a cooperation intention that may reach hundreds of millions.

   "Isn't it boring?"

   Seeing Miss Wang put down her chopsticks, Zhou Anan asked with concern.

  Although this kind of banquet is not very popular with him, Zhou Anan, who has just entered this level, still gained a lot of knowledge during the banquet.

  However, Miss Wang, who seldom talks, has nothing to talk about with everyone. Zhou Anan is really afraid that she is in a bad mood and has no appetite.

   "No, I just drank too much soft-shelled turtle soup just now. It's okay, you say what you want, don't worry about me."

  Wang Xiaoxiao answered this question very naturally.
