Most entrepreneurs might be focused on how their companies can make profits, but what Gu Nuan thinks about is always a bit different from the average person.
Chen Jiaming carefully mulled over the aning behind her words. He was a pragmatic man who disliked empty talk. Precisely because of that, he appreciated Gu Nuan’s style and had followed her up to this day. Now, with Gu Nuan rely talking loftily in the face of failure, for him it was still disappointing and unacceptable.
"If we don’t change our plan and just shrink back, how are we ever going to break into the United States film industry in the future?" Chen Jiaming asked.
"There are plenty of small innovative tech companies, and they’re exactly at the stage where they’re short of funding. We find these companies, dig out their technologies and make them our own, and before the U.S. governnt catches on, we break through the technology barriers and bring them back ho."
"Bring them back ho?" Chen Jiaming caught the key point in her words.
It should be said that through Bauer’s company and this round of business negotiations, through a whole series of direct dealings with Aricans on their own turf, Gu Nuan had truly co to understand what "not easy" really ant.
She had finally figured it out: Aricans only want other people’s money to fulfill their own dreams, and when it cos to the most valuable things, even if they can hoodwink U.S. entrepreneurs, the U.S. governnt will never agree. You could say the U.S. governnt and U.S. entrepreneurs are bound to be the most selfish players in the world. This is actually not hard to understand. What person isn’t selfish? It’s just that Aricans are relatively more hypocritical: on the one hand they advocate helping others, while on the other they constantly refuse to help, only wanting to dominate everyone else.
To break through this kind of barrier, there was only one path left: you had to bring the technology back ho before the egg hatched, because once the technology was successfully developed or matured, that was sothing Gu Nuan absolutely could not accept.
"We’ll set up a technology division. On our side, within the entertainnt group, this division already exists; we just need to integrate it with the overseas departnt. We’ll do whatever it takes to dig up the technology—there are plenty of ways."
As Gu Nuan spoke, Chen Jiaming saw a beautiful future starting to take shape. That really couldn’t help but fire up even the usually cool-headed Tiandu; the corners of his mouth couldn’t help lifting as he laughed and said, "You’re definitely domineering enough, Chairwoman."
When a strong–strong alliance fails and dealing with the industry leader doesn’t work—when no one can swallow the other—if the crocodile doesn’t want to starve, the only option is to go after the small fish first.
Gu Jinrong always assessed the situation from the perspective of the bigger picture, so when others thought she had lost, she had in fact already blazed a new trail that left her opponents completely at a loss.
"And one more thing—" Gu Nuan instructed, "I’ve already had Nala draw up a list of so well-known Hollywood talent agencies. Have Minister Fang’s team pick suitable candidates from that list."
Attacking on two fronts: they wanted both content and technology. You could say that for both Zhong Qiaohui and the industry leader, it was a double kill.
When Chen Jiaming hung up the phone with her, he was thinking that after hearing what she said, there wouldn’t be a single person in the company still mired in that recently failed business negotiation; they would all be itching to throw themselves into an even higher-level dream.
You could say that an outstanding entrepreneur is always able to strap a new pair of wings on herself in the midst of failure, wings that can fly even higher. With a company leader like that, who wouldn’t be willing to follow?
After receiving an enthusiastic response from the U.S. side, Zhong Qiaohui did not feel pleased at the first mont; instead, she imdiately had people investigate Gu Nuan’s reaction.
At this, Zhang Yingxi, who had been accompanying her the whole ti, felt dissatisfied and puzzled. "Just wrap things up with the U.S. side, sign the contract and be done with it. They lost—why are you still paying attention to them? Do you pity them? I heard you used to be colleagues with her. Let tell you, the cruelty of the marketplace is exactly the sa as the battlefield. No matter how good a friend you are with her, you cannot sacrifice your own company’s interests."
