Chapter 193: The Production Team of Thriller Stories!!
"Actually... it had already expired a long time ago."
"So, they're planning to make a move and buy my radio station outright..."
Upon hearing this, Chen Le, Chu Yaoyang, and Zhang Zihao exchanged glances, and the three of them were shocked once again!
What the hell?
The production team wants to acquire the radio station?
Isn't this a case of the cuckoo usurping the nest and the guest taking over the host's place?!
Wow, this is unbelievable! What a show!
"Director Zhang, please explain in detail what price they offered?!"
Chen Le asked with a smile.
"Don't mention it..."
Zhang Zhongyuan looked distressed, rubbed his face, and said helplessly, "They only offered one million, and they want to pay in installments!"
"These people are simply delusional..."
Why would I agree to that?
"They threatened to refuse to sign the contract, stop the program, and leave the radio station!"
"For such a small amount of money, I'm truly unwilling to sell this radio station, which I've poured 20 years of my heart and soul into, to them and let them get such a bargain!"
"But I really have no choice. Without this program, the radio station's ratings and listenership will definitely plummet, and revenue will suffer. I'm afraid we won't even be able to pay our staff's salaries, and we'll be on the verge of bankruptcy at any time."
"That's why I thought of contacting some good friends to see if anyone was willing to take over."
Zhang Zhongyuan sighed, his heart heavy with worry.
The problem he encountered was that the production team of this horror story series was originally an independent entity and did not accept any of the radio station's rules and regulations.
Especially recently, the original team seems to have seen through Zhang Zhongyuan's predicament and has taken swift and decisive action, intending to undermine him by acquiring Ye Weiyang directly.
In order to succeed in one fell swoop, they directly put forward threatening conditions.
If they weren't allowed to sell the radio station, they would simply leave.
When that time comes, Ye Weiyang will be brought back to reality, returning to the dire situation where he can't even pay salaries.
Zhang Zhongyuan hesitated for many days, but eventually came to his senses and decided to sell the radio station.
I'm going to give up on 20 years of hard work.
After all, his family urgently needed money.
Both children are studying abroad.
If we sell the radio station, we can still get some income.
Chen Le nodded after hearing this, and looked at Chu Yaoyang and Zhang Zihao beside him.
"Brother Hao, what do you think?"
Zhang Zihao thought for a moment, then said earnestly, "I think Director Zhang is a good person; at least he didn't lie to us!"
In his opinion, this Director Zhang was a very honest person.
At the very least, they know that if they want to sell a radio station for a good price, they must first ensure their reputation.
After all, he used to run a loan shark business, and there were too many swindlers who secretly planted traps in his businesses, trying to find ways to cheat you.
Working with someone like Director Zhang makes me feel much more at ease.
Chen Le thought about it for a moment, and wholeheartedly agreed, smiling as he said, "That's what I think too."
"Director Zhang, could you please tell me your quote?"
"What's your expected selling price?"
Chen Le looked at Director Zhang and asked a question.
Zhang Zhongyuan hesitated for a long time before glancing around.
In the end, it fell on Chen Le.
"I don't want to set the price too high, but it should be at least 200 million!"
"If it's less than this amount, I don't intend to sell the radio station!"
"but……"
"To be honest, the current problem is that if this production team leaves, the radio station will have a hard time surviving... After all, this radio station is already on the decline, and whoever takes over will definitely need to create a wildly popular program to generate revenue..."
"But this is a dead end. If we want to keep them here, we have to sign that high-percentage revenue-sharing agreement..."
Zhang Zhongyuan earnestly advised.
Chen Le thought for a moment, then stood up with a smile and said, "A price of 200 million is not high!"
"Director Zhang, we accept this price."
"If you agree, we can sign the transfer agreement anytime now, and our payment will be transferred immediately!"
"However, there's one thing: we don't need the production team for 'Horror Stories,' so your contracts need to be settled cleanly before the radio station is handed over to me!!"
"What!?"
Zhang Zhongyuan's face showed surprise.
On one hand, he was startled by Chen Le's generosity.
Two million is not a small amount of money, but he seemed to treat it as casually as throwing away two hundred dollars.
For a moment, he even doubted whether he had quoted too low a price...
Secondly, he was shocked.
Unexpectedly, Chen Leyi immediately decided to purge his own company after the acquisition.
The most profitable project is fired immediately!
Without this project, the entire radio station would go bankrupt!
What did they do with the radio station? Did they owe it to someone else?
Not so much...
Feeling reluctant, Zhang Zhongyuan immediately asked earnestly, "President Chen, are you sure you want to cancel this cooperation team?"
"I've told you about the radio station's situation; it's not looking good. Without this production team, the radio station would be generating almost no revenue!"
“I suggest… we keep the production team. If necessary, we can sign another high-revenue-sharing agreement and continue working with the original team.”
"It's not too late to cancel this team after you've created your own grand finale performance!" Zhang Zhongyuan said worriedly, which was also for the sake of Chen Le and the others.
After all, if the radio station is sold and ends up in someone else's hands, they might lose money.
He felt guilty about what had been said.
These reminders are heartfelt and well-intentioned.
Chen Le smiled and said without hesitation.
"Don't worry, Director Zhang, I've already prepared the new program!"
"To me, this production team is nothing but parasites and vampires."
"I would never sign a production team with such low standards, even if it means losing money!"
“I despise this kind of despicable person the most. He uses the radio station’s traffic to develop his own fame, and now he wants to use this program to blackmail me.”
"This is called repaying kindness with enmity and taking advantage of someone's misfortune."
"Director Zhang, thank you for your reminder."
"Brother Hao, did you bring the cash? Let's pay the deposit first and calm Director Zhang down."
Chen Le turned around and glanced at Zhang Zihao.
"I brought it, don't worry!"
Zhang Zihao laughed and immediately picked up a box and put it on the table.
Upon opening it, they were surprised to find 50 yuan in cash inside.
Chen Le smiled and said, "Director Zhang, you can take this money directly. After the agreement is signed, I will transfer the rest of the funds to you."
"This……"
Zhang Zhongyuan was dumbfounded.
That's incredibly generous.
Is this how you do business?!
After seeing it, Zhang Zhongyuan nodded in satisfaction and then took out the contract guaranteeing the agreement for both parties to sign.
The contract is a legitimate agreement, and whoever breaches it must pay three times the amount as liquidated damages.
After everything was signed, Director Zhang shook hands with Chen Le warmly and gave him some instructions.
Chen Le nodded with a smile, and they chatted happily.
at this time.
The door was suddenly pushed open.
Immediately afterwards, a stylishly dressed young man, followed by several men and women, walked in.
