Chapter 364: G.o.d’s Reward for Food
Backed by mountains of gold and silver?
Hearing what Zhang Yifa said, Chu Tian chuckled and said, “Actually, it’s not as exaggerated as what you said, Director Zhang, but it makes a little money.”
“Well…” Zhang Yi laughed and shook his head, saying, “Chu, you can lie to others, but you can’t lie to me. I know better than most people whether you’re making money or not. To be honest, I have a sister who is quite well-connected in the industry. She’s your franchisee.”
Forehead…
Chu Tian looked at Zhang Yifa and smiled, “Is it such a coincidence?”
“It’s true.” Zhang Yifa said, “I have a good relationship with this sister. Some time ago, we just had a meal and chatted. I asked her what she was doing recently, and she said that she got a free milk tea franchise. The store has a monthly net income of nearly 9 million.”
“Boss Chu, this franchise store can earn 9 million a month. You now have 400 franchise stores. The money earned by these 400 franchisees alone is 3.6 billion. So, how do you plan to surpa.s.s the revenue generated by these franchisees?”
He even settled the bill with himself!
Hearing what Zhang Yifa said, Chu Tian chuckled again and said, “Actually, that’s how it is. Anyway, I can earn some money.”
Seeing that Chu Tian admitted in disguise, Zhang Yifa couldn’t help but also laugh.
“Right.” Chu Tian continued, “Director Zhang, the new program that you are in charge of now, is it ready soon?”
“Well, it’s almost there,” Zhang Yifa said. “These days, I’ve been busy with the stage, lighting, and testing it all the time. Soon, the recording will officially start in about a week. It will be broadcast every episode. The format is recorded this week and broadcast next week. That is, without any accidents, it will be broadcast on TV in half a month.”
Chu Tian nodded and said, “Director Zhang, let’s make it clear that we don’t speak secretly. You should know why I came to you this time.”
“Understood.” Zhang Yifa smiled, “I know it all in my heart.”
“Then let me give you a formal introduction.”
While talking, Chu Tian looked at Luo Yun and said, “Luo Yun, a singer I just signed under my banner, is also the first artist signed by my Multi-Water Media Company. Although she is not famous, I like her voice, and very comfortable to listen to.”
It wasn’t until this moment that Luo Yun stood up nervously, hurriedly stretched out her hand, and said, “Director Zhang, h.e.l.lo, I have admired your name for a long time.”
“Hey, h.e.l.lo.” Zhang Yifa hurriedly stood up, shook hands with Luo Yun, and said with a smile, “Sit down, let’s just sit down and talk.”
Two of them sat down again. Zhang Yifa looked at Chu Tian. He continued, “I understand what you’re saying, Chu. However, there’s something I have to tell you in advance. The production cost of our program alone is quite high. Therefore, quality is required.”
“If there’s no problem with your voice, we can make it to the final eight. However, if we want to move up, it’s not a matter of money. We must have a perfect voice. Otherwise, our program will easily fail. It won’t be worth the loss.”
“I understand.” Chu Tian smiled, “Don’t worry, Director Zhang. I will definitely not make things difficult for you. You should listen and try first. If you think Luo Yun has the strength to compete, you will not smash your program, then let’s continue talking. If you think Luo Yun’s singing voice will ruin your show, that’s okay. We can’t make a deal, and we have the right to make friends and have a meal together. I’ll treat.”
“No problem.” Zhang Yifa said with a smile, “Boss Chu can understand, so let’s listen first.”
“Alright,” Chu Tian replied. “There’s a karaoke room in the suite. We tested it earlier, and the sound quality is quite good, so I won’t join you. Director Zhang, the three of you can go in and enjoy the concert.”
“Okay, okay.” Zhang Yifa stood up and said, “Then the three of us will go into the concert.”
While talking, Zhang Yifa, the woman, and Luo Yun went directly to the karaoke room in the presidential suite.
……
Time pa.s.sed in a blink of an eye, and it was an hour and a half.
At this moment, the door of the karaoke room opened, and Zhang Yifa and Luo Yun came out from inside.
Chu Tian smiled and said, “Director Zhang, what do you think?”
“Very good.” Zhang Yifa nodded in satisfaction and said, “Miss Luo’s voice is ethereal, with that kind of ‘fairy’ feeling really rare.”
Chu Tian smiled and nodded: “Director Zhang, above the top eight, can you still make progress?”
“Yes, yes.” Zhang Yifa said, “Miss Luo’s voice condition is not a problem. The high and low pitch of her singing voice is also very smooth. This singing experience should be quite rich, right?”
“It’s not bad.” Chu Tian said, “Luo Yun used to be a resident singer in a bar for more than three years, so she has quite a lot of singing experience.”
“I knew it,” Zhang Yi said, laughing. “The way the song was handled, the sound quality, it’s excellent. It’s truly impressive.”
