Movie: Get Alpha Dog at the start

Chapter 1012: There is no such thing as "no" in a man's dictionary

On the other side, Qin Hao had just returned to the hotel after get off work when his cell phone rang.

"Boss, there is something I need to report to you."

Qin Hao said casually: "Well, what's the matter?"

"It's about creative investment. According to the investment direction you mentioned, we have selected some MCN agencies that incubate Internet celebrities. After some screening, there are currently two MCN agencies that are more worthy of investment."

Jason paused and continued, "One is Wuyou Media, and the other is Vision Entertainment. Wuyou Media was established earlier, and its business model is relatively mature. It has also successfully incubated some internet celebrities. The downside is that the asking price is too high, with a valuation of 1.8 million RMB. In addition, they are not very receptive to our investment, and are only willing to sell 10% of their shares."

"We can continue to discuss the valuation, but the shares must be at least 20%. This is the bottom line." Qin Hao said seriously.

"Okay, Boss." Jason continued, "Vision Entertainment was established not long ago, and its business model is still in the exploratory stage. It has not yet created a successful internet celebrity anchor, but its valuation is relatively cheap, only 3000 million RMB, and they are in urgent need of investment, so they can offer 20% of the shares."

"Vision Entertainment? You can talk to their boss. If you can get 30% of the shares, a higher valuation is acceptable. The progress should be faster, and it would be best if the contract is finalized this month."

Qin Hao vaguely remembers that 2018 was the year when Douyin experienced an explosive growth, and both Media and Vision Entertainment would reap the benefits of this wave of dividends.

"I know what to do, Boss."

Investing in an MCN company is not only for making money, but also for the transformation of "every day" in the future.

The medical beauty industry can be considered a highly profitable industry. Although it faces macro-environmental factors such as intensified competition, it is not to the point where it will be unsustainable as soon as Wang Ruizhi becomes a monk.

It can only be said that Qin Lingling and Qin Feng, the brother and sister, are incompetent and the company has problems with financing. As managers, they should focus on how to find investment instead of trying to reduce costs and increase efficiency, which makes the company panic. Isn't this equivalent to telling investors that "Every Day" is about to fail? Investors are just like banks. They give out umbrellas when it's sunny and take them away when it's raining. They invest in the future. How could they invest in a company that is going downhill?

From the moment Qin Lingling took over "Everyday", she was heading in the wrong direction. Add in Qin Feng, a "fool" who is more likely to cause trouble than to accomplish anything, it would be strange if things didn't get worse and worse.

Moreover, in Qin Hao's opinion, Wang Ruizhi may be good at business, but he has no strategic vision.

The scale of "Everyday" may be quite large, but it has been acting as a supplier for so many years. To put it bluntly, it is the second party. Although it can make some money, in the final analysis, it is still asking others to sell goods.

Over the years, the company has neither developed a "flagship product" nor opened up downstream sales channels.

Once such companies encounter a bad macro environment or fierce industry competition, they will have no ability to resist risks at all.

"Every day" is like a child with congenital defects, who subsequently encounters a series of problems such as being abandoned and seriously ill. It would be strange if nothing happened.

After hanging up the phone, Qin Hao opened Li Xiaoyue's circle of friends out of boredom, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly. This girl's life is really rich. First, she went to eat a hot pot buffet, and then went to do handicrafts. Not to mention that her skills are not bad.

Qin Hao left a message under the circle of friends: "Well done, give it to me."

Less than a minute later, Li Xiaoyue's message came: "Humph, don't even think about it. It took me more than an hour to make it."

"You need another hour for this? I can make one for you in three minutes."

"Oh, this world is full of wonders. How come I saw a group of cows flying in the sky?"

Qin Hao laughed and scolded: "So you think I'm bragging? Let's make an appointment sometime."

"Okay, this weekend." Li Xiaoyue replied right after leaving the message: "Make one like me in three minutes, and I'll treat you to a meal."

"A gentleman's word."

"It's hard to chase a horse."

The corners of Qin Hao's mouth curled up slightly. She had taken the bait.

In the next few days, Qin Hao still went to "Everyday" to punch in for work every day, but in addition to playing games, he occasionally treated his colleagues to milk tea or something, and soon became familiar with his colleagues, especially the fat guy Liu Peng sitting next to him, who almost kowtowed to him to acknowledge him as his godfather. Of course, this was also because everyone knew that he was Qin Lingling's younger brother, so he had to give some face to the boss's wife.

After getting to know each other, Qin Hao also learned some information about the marketing department from the fat man Liu Peng. On the surface, the marketing department was relatively "clean", mainly because Na Wei kept a close eye on it, otherwise Wang Ruizhi would not have put him in this position.

Of course, just because Na Wei himself has no problem doesn't mean that the marketing department's spending is okay. As long as Wang Ruizhi says a word, Na Wei will definitely go through fire and water for it.

In addition, the manager of the Finance Department is Wang Ruizhi's man, which means that Wang Ruizhi can report whatever he wants for the company's expenses.

According to Qin Lingling, after she and Wang Ruizhi started their business to a certain scale, she asked to be transferred to the Finance Department, but Wang Ruizhi said that he wanted to focus on the business and the company needed someone to keep an eye on it, so he forced Qin Lingling into company management.

Before Wang Ruizhi cheated on her, Qin Lingling believed what he said and agreed to it. But when Xu Meiyi's incident happened later, she suddenly woke up and realized that all the people in the important departments of the company were Wang Ruizhi's confidants, and she, the general manager, was just a decoration.

Na Wei had gotten used to Qin Hao's idleness and carelessness in the marketing department all day, and basically turned a blind eye to it.

But Qin Feng couldn't stand it anymore, so he first went to Qin Lingling to report it. Qin Lingling knew Qin Hao's plan in advance, so she naturally didn't care and told him not to meddle in other people's business.

Qin Feng was so angry that he had no choice but to find Na Wei.

"Mr. Na, some people in your department are playing games instead of doing their work. You have to take care of them."

Na Wei rolled his eyes and said, "Boss Qin, please stop playing with me. He's your brother. How dare I interfere?"

"No, what's wrong with being my biological brother? This is a company, not an Internet cafe!" Qin Feng became more and more unhappy the more he thought about it.

Na Wei rolled his eyes and kicked the ball back to Qin Feng.

"Boss Qin, why don't you go and tell Boss Ling?"

Qin Feng said unhappily: "Tell her... Ms. Ling is so busy every day, how can she have time to take care of such trivial matters."

"Mr. Na, this person is handed over to you. You have to take responsibility. Besides, he is always slacking off, which affects the atmosphere of your department."

Na Wei continued to practice Tai Chi: "Boss Qin, your words are serious. It's not that serious. It's normal for young people to like to play. Besides, Boss Qin has completed the tasks I assigned him with quality and quantity, and he has done a pretty good job."

As he spoke, Na Wei took out two planning proposals and gave them to Qin Feng.

Qin Feng took a look and it seemed to be true.

"Since he has this talent, you should be strict with him. Give him more tasks so that he can focus on his work."

Na Wei almost couldn't help laughing out loud. He knew too well how Qin Hao handled his work. If he was given more tasks, wouldn't he have to work overtime to finish them?

"Okay, I'll try my best."

"Not try your best, but definitely."

"Okay, definitely."

After Qin Feng left, Na Wei called Qin Hao to the office and assigned him some tasks.

Qin Hao naturally passed it to Li Xiaoyue, causing Li Xiaoyue to complain.

"Boss, is this our company's job? Why don't I see any such business in our company?"

"Who told you that I only own one company?"

"So does this count as working two jobs? Should I get double pay?"

After saying this, Li Xiaoyue sent another naughty emoticon.

Qin Hao directly responded with a knocking expression.

"Not only is she so beautiful, but she also has such beautiful dreams. You have taken all the good things. What can others do?"

Li Xiaoyue replied with another crazy emoticon.

"Humph, praising me won't change your stingy nature."

Qin Hao smiled and changed the subject: "What time do we gather tomorrow?"

"I don't know. I'll tell you when I wake up."

"I can provide wake-up service."

"Haha, let's learn about the silent mode on the weekends."

Qin Hao was bickering with Li Xiaoyue and slacking off. Soon it was time to get off work. Just as he was about to punch in, Qin Lingling called him to the office.

"Any progress in the past few days?"

Qin Hao spread his hands and said, "How can it be so fast? I have only dispelled Lao Wang's suspicion. If I want to get in touch with the core of the marketing department, I have to start with Na Wei."

"Na Wei is very loyal to Lao Wang. I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to break through?" Qin Lingling frowned.

"Just because it's difficult to break through doesn't mean it's impossible to break through, but I'll need some time."

Qin Lingling nodded: "Okay, there's no need to rush this matter, so as not to arouse Lao Wang's vigilance."

"By the way, tomorrow is the weekend, come over to my house for dinner, since Mingming is coming back soon."

Qin Hao smiled mysteriously: "I have more important things to do tomorrow, so I won't have dinner with you."

Qin Lingling was an experienced person after all, and she said, "Do you have a date?"

Seeing that Qin Hao did not deny it, Qin Lingling became interested.

"Why don't you just bring it home tomorrow and let me check it for you."

Qin Hao was speechless for a while. Women's gossiping nature is really innate.

"We are still in the contact stage. It is still too early to meet the parents."

Qin Lingling was a little disappointed when she heard this, but she also reminded him, "I don't care how you are doing in the United States. Now that you are back, you should focus on your thoughts. If you meet a good girl, you must seize the opportunity and get married as soon as possible. I will also have an explanation to my parents."

"Sister, I haven't even started yet, but you've already thought of a name for your child."

"Humph, anyway, don't follow your brother-in-law's example and have affairs with other women..."

The more Qin Hao listened, the more he felt something was wrong, so he quickly found an excuse to leave.

As expected, for a woman who has been cheated on, everyone looks like a scumbag to her.

It was eleven o'clock on the weekend when Qin Hao received the address sent by Li Xiaoyue.

In front of a handicraft shop.

When Qin Hao arrived, Li Xiaoyue was already standing at the door. She was wearing a simple pair of jeans and a T-shirt, with no makeup on. She looked very casual, but with her pure and beautiful facial features, she looked quite pretty.

"Not bad, quite on time. I thought I would have to wait a long time."

Li Xiaoyue wrinkled her nose: "Although I am a little lazy, I still have a basic sense of time."

"Well, that's good. You have a strong sense of self-awareness."

Facing Qin Hao's teasing, Li Xiaoyue snorted: "It's agreed that you can make a clay figure in three minutes. If you lose, you can treat us later. There is a Chaoshan hotpot nearby. The beef is very fresh, but the downside is that it's expensive. I'm dying of greed."

"Are you so pessimistic about me?" Qin Hao laughed.

Li Xiaoyue chuckled: "Anyway, I don't believe that anyone can make a clay figure in three minutes."

"Then we'll see."

Then in the handicraft shop, Li Xiaoyue was controlled by Qin Hao for three minutes. Qin Hao used his long fingers to knead the clay. In less than three minutes, he actually made a clay figure.

What made Li Xiaoyue feel most incredible was that the clay figures made by Qin Hao actually bore some resemblance to her.

"How's it going? Not bad, right?"

Li Xiaoyue stared at the clay figurine for a minute before saying bitterly, "If I had known earlier, I would have chosen a cheaper restaurant."

"My wallet."

"I admit defeat. Let's go and have beef hotpot."

Li Xiaoyue sighed, but did not play tricks. She took Qin Hao to the hot pot restaurant obediently.

Although she was heartbroken, Li Xiaoyue still ordered a lot of beef.

"You didn't study sculpture in college, did you? How is it possible to mold a clay figure so quickly? I don't think even the store manager can do it."

Qin Hao raised his hands and said, "It's talent. I've been clever and deft since I was a child. I can do everything quickly and well."

"Hmph, it's just a blind cat catching a dead mouse. Look how you're showing off." Li Xiaoyue obviously didn't believe it.

Qin Hao put his hand down and said with a wicked smile: "If you don't believe it, just find a random project, and the bet is still a meal, how about it?"

"Really just find one randomly?" Li Xiaoyue's eyes lit up, and then she looked at Qin Hao suspiciously.

"Why do I feel like you are deliberately setting a trap for me to fall into?"

Qin Hao said seriously: "I gave you a chance to get back at me, but you're still not happy about it. Forget it, just pretend I never said anything."

"That won't do. A man should keep his word. How can he not go back on his words?" Li Xiaoyue slammed the table.

"It's settled. I'll find the project, and you can't go back on your word."

Qin Hao secretly laughed at this girl, thinking that she might have never seen the power of AlphaGo.

After eating and drinking, Li Xiaoyue sat on a chair and began to think hard about what projects were uncommon and extremely difficult.

Suddenly, Li Xiaoyue's eyes lit up and he waved his hand.

"Come on, I will definitely win back the dinner this time."

When they arrived at the place, Qin Hao was happy. No wonder Li Xiaoyue was so confident. It turned out that she had found a store that did micro-carving.

Li Xiaoyue begged for a long time before the master let Qin Hao try it with a walnut.

The micro-carving master was unhappy: "Without more than ten years of experience, there is no way to do this."

Li Xiaoyue said to Qin Hao proudly: "How about it, are you dumbfounded? It's not too late to admit defeat now, don't say I bullied you."

"There is no such thing as 'no' in a man's dictionary." (End of this chapter)
