Chapter 170 The 170th Day of Not Running Away The 100th Day of Not Running Away...

Chen Bozheng didn't return until late at night after socializing.

Wen Chan had just gotten off work and arrived home. Hearing footsteps, she turned around and glanced at them. "Have you been drinking?"

She got up to get some water, but Chen Bozheng said, "It's okay, I didn't drink much. I don't smell good, so don't come any closer."

Wen Chan chuckled and said, "Don't treat me like I'm made of glass."

She made him a cup of orange juice.

Chen Bozheng reeked of alcohol and cigarettes, but he wasn't particularly rude. After taking a sip of warm orange juice, he became much more alert. "That President Xiao is quite amiable, not arrogant at all."

"That Mr. Xiao from the office building?" Wen Chan knew a little about him and asked with concern, "How did the business deal go?"

Chen Bo put down his cup and loosened his tie. "We haven't had a chance to talk yet. I just met him, and I'm already doing business with someone. They might not be willing. I'm thinking of getting to know him better and asking him about buying or renting a place. They'll be contacting a lot of companies in their office building area, which will definitely be the largest customer base for our two buildings. Besides, most of the people who can afford to rent or buy in our complex are probably big bosses of those companies."

Commercial housing is not selling well, and competition is fierce this year.

Although Chen Bozheng didn't advertise like he did last year, nor did he expand aggressively, and kept telling people to take a steady and pragmatic approach and build the Jingyun residential complex first, he actually didn't give up on promoting the property.

Chen Bo had his eye on the senior executives of the office building next door as early as when construction began.

He knew that the senior management of Hong Kong companies were not ordinary people. In terms of wealth, they were richer than ordinary bosses. They were also bold and willing to return to the mainland to develop and manage their businesses, mostly because they were optimistic about the future prospects of the mainland.

In short, this group is wealthy and willing to spend money.

"That's a good idea."

Wen Chan said thoughtfully, "How about this, could you help us find out how much the rent is per square meter per month for office space? Many of our companies will be renting proper office space in the future, so it's good to book in advance."

Chen Bo looked at Wen Chan with surprise in his eyes.

Wen Chan laughed and said, "What's wrong? Are you drunk and confused?"

Chen Bo sat up, slapping his thigh and saying, "No, you reminded me! How come I didn't think of that? To take, you must first give. Although President Xiao doesn't lack leases, this is still a token of our sincerity!"

He got excited and, forgetting about his orange juice, pulled out his contact list to call the bosses he knew.

Since we want to curry favor with Mr. Xiao and his team, let's go all out.

Wen Chan could hear him making a phone call outside until she went to bed.

She glanced around and saw a table lamp left on in the living room, casting a long shadow of the man in its light.

Tongmeng Company has received some good news.

Director Wen came personally with sincerity. Their TV station has recently gained a few young and capable leaders who are very ambitious and want to become the first satellite TV station in mainland China.

Therefore, Director Wen naturally thought of contacting Tongmeng Company.

But at the same time.

Mr. and Mrs. Ye looked at Director Wen with troubled expressions. "The satellite launch fee is 1.5 million?!"

The advertising fee for Beijing TV is only one million yuan.

Hebei TV actually wants 1.5 million?

That's a lot of money!

Director Wen looked at them and said, "I know you're in a difficult position, so I can guarantee you that I'll give you advertising for two years. Even after the competition ends, your ads will still be broadcast on TV. What do you think?"

"this?"

Mr. Ye stroked his stubble, looking somewhat hesitant.

They've been so busy for days that they haven't had time to take care of their appearance.

Zhao Dan looked at Director Wen and said, "Director Wen, I agree to this!"

Boss Ye stared at Zhao Dan with wide eyes, his eyes saying, "Are you crazy? This is 1.5 million!"

Don't be fooled by their wealth; they're quite capable in business. They've already invested a considerable amount of money in Tongmeng Company alone.

The couple is currently facing a very tight cash flow situation.

Although Wenchan Company can make investments, investments require a shareholding structure. Currently, the two sides split the investment 60/40, with the future investment company holding 40% and Mr. and Mrs. Ye holding 60%.

Director Wen noticed Mr. Ye's expression and said considerately, "It's like this, such a big matter, why don't you two discuss it properly? When we came over just now, we saw that the scenery around here is quite beautiful. Let's go out for a walk now and come back later."

"Do you need me to find someone to accompany you?" Wen Chan asked considerately as she stood up.

Director Wen waved his hand, "No need, don't be so polite."

She went out with her men.

After closing the office door, Boss Ye immediately said, "I disagree. With such a high advertising fee, we might as well hire Beijing TV!"

Zhao Dan said, "If we go to them now, it might cost a million. Besides, Beijing TV has no plans to go satellite!"

"We still need to haggle. I think it would be more like 1.2 million."

Mr. Ye said with heartache, "That's real money."

Zhao Dan rolled her eyes at him, raised her wrist to fidget with her hair, and looked at Wen Chan: "Wen Chan, do you think we should try to bargain?"

Wen Chan said, "I won't cut it."

When she met Boss Ye's puzzled look, she explained, "Regardless of whether they actually need that much money to go satellite TV, just considering the two years of advertising they've given us, we've already broken even. Once the TV station goes satellite, the ads will be seen by people all over the country, and the advertising fees might not be this cheap in the future. Rather than letting them complain in the future, it's better to just agree to it now. That way, we can also gain some goodwill."

Zhao Dan clapped her hands and said, "What you said is exactly what I was thinking. I think that Director Wen is probably quite capable. Let's be straightforward and help her. If she becomes a big leader at the TV station in the future, this favor will be more valuable than this money."

Wen Chan smiled and said, "Sister Zhao thinks more deeply than I do."

Mr. Ye's mind raced.

He gritted his teeth and said helplessly, "Fine, I'll give it to you then."

After Director Wen and his group returned from their tour, they were somewhat apprehensive.

If the negotiations fail, it will be a significant loss for them as well.

So when they heard Wen Chan and Mr. and Mrs. Ye agree, Director Wen couldn't help but smile. "This, this is really... I really don't know what to say. Don't worry, our TV station will definitely find the best team to film the competition, and we will make sure that people all over the country can see how good the designs of your Tongmeng Company are."

Director Wen then happily exclaimed, "Tonight, you absolutely must let me treat you to dinner!"

That's what they said, but as the hosts, Wen Chan and her group couldn't let others treat them to a meal.

Besides, we've already given 1.5 million, so we don't need a little more.

Wen Chan and her team were efficient; the contract was signed the next day, and the money was transferred immediately.

The TV station reciprocated by filming an advertisement for them, which aired on TV within a few days.

Design competitions usually have some barriers to entry, but child star competitions really don't have any barriers at all. Anyone, from four to thirteen years old, regardless of gender, can participate.

The advertisement wasn't anything special, but the prize money was incredibly attractive.

The child star competition offers a prize of 10,000 yuan for just the third prize, plus the chance to become famous. Not only in Beijing, but also in several surrounding provinces such as Hebei and Henan, this event has caused quite a stir.

Photos, like snowflakes, flew into the courtyard.
