“Eh?” He was about to go back when Chen Yun called.
Although he was very glorious now, he still knew his worth. He also knew who had given him everything. Therefore, he did not dare to show any disrespect to Chen Yun.
“Hello, Director Chen?” Ma Ke picked up the call cautiously and greeted Director Chen respectfully!
“Yes!” Chen Yun replied in a low and heavy voice.
Ma Ke stood up with a serious expression. “Director Chen, is there anything you want me to do?”
“Yes!” Chen Yun replied and said directly, “Go and find out which entertainment company Director Li Bin has accepted a film from recently. Yes, it’s that film called ‘Above the Crimson Clouds’!”
As soon as Chen Yun mentioned “Above the Crimson Clouds”, Ma Ke’s eyes lit up and he replied, “Director Chen, I know this. It’s from NTC Entertainment overseas!”
“Oh, why? Do you know about them?” Chen Yun asked. Ma Ke did not dare to hide anything and said directly, “Director Chen, isn’t our company working with many celebrities recently? Coincidentally, NTC Entertainment is also working with us!”
Hearing Ma Ke’s words, Chen Yun nodded. “I see. Sure!”
Since they knew the company, it was easier to handle. Moreover, with Sacred Heaven’s current influence, he believed that if Ma Ke appeared, it would definitely not be too difficult to obtain the copyright of “Above the Crimson Clouds”!
“How about this? Contact that entertainment company and ask for the price to buy the ownership rights of ‘Above the Crimson Clouds’! Yes, at all costs!” Ma Ke naturally understood what Chen Yun meant.
“Director Chen, as far as I know, NTC spent less than 50 million yuan on investing in ‘Above the Crimson Clouds’ this time. However, I heard that this movie is very good. They have high hopes!”
“Yes, I know. However, no matter what, we have to obtain the ownership rights of ‘Above the Crimson Clouds’!” When Chen Yun said this, Ma Ke completely understood what Chen Yun meant!
“Alright, Director Chen. I’ll do it now!” Ma Ke did not dare to be negligent. If he could not even do such a small thing well, not only would he appear incompetent, but he would also make Chen Yun unhappy!
If Chen Yun was unhappy, he did not know what the consequences would be. However, he knew one thing. He would definitely be too ashamed to face Chen Yun again.
“Yes, let me know when you get it!” Chen Yun replied and hung up.
“Mengmeng, just wait for the good news!” Chen Yun smiled at Chen Mengmeng. He was still at ease with Ma Ke’s ability. Moreover, if it really didn’t work out, he would spend money. Didn’t they invest 50 million yuan? No matter how good the results of this film were, it would probably be very difficult for it to exceed a billion yuan at the box office. Their revenue would probably not exceed 200 million yuan!
They also had to bear the risk of failing. After all, such artistic films were niche. There were many loyal fans, but compared to other movies with other themes, there were definitely not many people who were willing to spend money on them.
Excluding the cost, they would only earn at most 200 million yuan!
However, if Chen Yun could offer 200 million yuan or more, they would probably be very happy to give up the copyright.
With Ma Ke personally taking action, NTC Entertainment naturally did not dare to be negligent. To be honest, the two companies were on completely different levels now!
In terms of scale, Sacred Heaven had already become the top company in China. In fact, they were full of drive later on. It was not difficult to surpass other companies.
Ma Ke personally called the chairman of NTC Entertainment. Although it was a foreign company, they naturally had to give Ma Ke respect.
However, the chairman was also Chinese and had the same surname as Ma Ke.
“Chairman Ma, I’m sorry to call you so late at night. I must have disturbed your rest!” Ma Ke apologized as soon as the call connected, making Ma Liqun panic.
“No, I haven’t rested yet!” Ma Liqun was very polite. He also understood that he was on a completely different level from the other party.
“In that case, I won’t beat around the bush with you! I’ll be straightforward!” As soon as Ma Ke finished speaking, the other party smiled obsequiously. “CEO Ma, tell me what you need!”
“It’s like this. Director Chen is very interested in your film ‘Above the Crimson Clouds’, so he asked me to buy the copyright!” Ma Ke went straight to the point and expressed his intention of calling.
“Are you talking about the art film ‘Above the Crimson Clouds’?” After all, Ma Liqun was the chairman. Investing 50 million yuan was not a small sum for them. He naturally had to understand it clearly.
“Yes, that one!” Ma Ke nodded. “Chairman Ma, name a price. Director Chen doesn’t lack money!”
Ma Ke had a big shot behind him. The big shot’s name was Chen Yun. He had invested tens of billions and occupied 100% of Sacred Heaven’s shares!
These were all public information. As long as someone wanted to know, it was very simple!
“Above the Crimson Clouds” was indeed not bad. Ma Liqun’s taste was not bad. Otherwise, he would not have taken out 50 million yuan with a wave of his hand.
“But, we are going to…” Before he could finish speaking, Ma Ke interrupted him!
“No matter what you plan to do, this is what Director Chen wants, so… Chairman Ma, please give it to him!” Ma Ke was not familiar with Ma Liqun, but his words made Ma Liqun very happy.
“Well, it’s not impossible to give up the copyright. However, my investment worth 50 million yuan has already started operations. Therefore, CEO Ma, I can’t sell it for less than 100 million yuan!”
Ma Ke could understand what Ma Liqun meant.
However, Ma Liqun’s words made him very happy because Ma Liqun had discussed the price with him!
He could accept 100 million yuan. If Ma Ke offered 200 million yuan, they might agree!
Of course, Ma Ke was not a fool. Although Chen Yun said that the price did not matter, that was based on the premise that it was very difficult to settle. In this situation, he was not in a hurry to bid!
“Chairman Ma, how much would you like?” Ma Ke directly asked him to bid. As long as it was not too much, he would bargain with him!
Since Ma Liqun could open an entertainment company, he was naturally a sly old fox. He naturally understood why Ma Ke asked him to bid.
On the other side, Ma Liqun was also stunned for a while and did not speak. After about ten seconds, Ma Liqun finally asked, “What does your big boss mean by wanting the copyright of ‘Above the Crimson Clouds’?”
“As his subordinates, we naturally shouldn’t ask about Director Chen’s intentions! Anyway, Chairman Ma only needs to understand one thing. Director Chen won’t mistreat anyone unless he’s an enemy!” Although Ma Ke was young, he was very experienced in speaking and doing things.
When he said that, Ma Liqun naturally had to consider it.
Moreover, he had heard Ma Ke’s words very clearly just now. If they could not become friends, they could only become enemies. They were very generous to our friends, but not necessarily to their enemies!
