Chapter 347: The Cat Field Spokesperson’s Battle (Ch 347)

Hangzhou, Yuhang District, Maochang Group Headquarters Park,

A6 Building, in Conference Room 1 on the 8th floor, a meeting is underway.

The content of the meeting was the selection of the cat park’s first global spokesperson.

In the middle of the huge conference room was a dark brown circular conference table, with executives from various departments of the cat farm sitting on both sides of the table.

Sitting in the main seat is the man known as the “Godfather of Domestic E-commerce”, Jack Ma.

On his left and right are Xiaoyaozi Zhang Yong and Maochang Prince Jiang Fan.

On the big screen opposite Jack Ma, a PPT was playing, and the content on it was exactly Qi Jia’s personal information.

“…Among the young artists in the current domestic entertainment industry, Qi Jia, like Qianxi, Li Yifeng, and Wu Yifan, are all in the most popular first echelon.

Moreover, several of his works this year have been very popular, and even his self-produced variety shows have become popular abroad.

Another point is that unlike other artists of the same age, who are full of dark histories when searched, Qi Jia has been in the industry for a short time and has a clean background, so when you search for him, you will find only positive energy!

Although his influence overseas is relatively weak, according to our prediction, within two years, Qi Jia’s influence will surely expand to the whole of Asia.

Therefore, we at the entertainment group believe that it is very appropriate for him to be the first global spokesperson for the cat park.”

After Meng Ju, the vice president of the entertainment group, finished speaking, he sat down. Ever since he met Qi Jia in Hong Kong City, he had his men conduct a detailed assessment and investigation of Qi Jia.

After careful comparison and analysis, he finally decided to promote Qi Jia, because he found that among contemporary young artists, Qi Jia may not be the most popular, but he is the fastest growing, and has already shown a tendency to go abroad and develop throughout Asia.

After listening to Meng Ju’s report, many people at the scene immediately started whispering to each other.

Although there are four candidates in total, the last two have basically been passed over, and now the focus of the debate is on Qi Jia and Qianxi.

Jack Ma said nothing, and just looked through Qi Jia’s information.

At this time, Zhang Yongxian on the side spoke up.

“But as far as I know, Qi Jia is currently working solo and has no financial support. How can you be sure that he can grow?

If we want things like popularity and fame, we can just find a dog and spend hundreds of millions on it and make it extremely popular. But what’s the use?

Therefore, I think Qianxi is the most suitable, as he is not only popular in China, but also well-known abroad.”

Zhang Yong’s favorite was Qianxi. After he finished speaking, many senior executives nodded and echoed him, expressing their agreement, but Jack Ma remained silent.

Seeing this, Zhang Yong lowered his voice and whispered in his ear,

“Qianxijia has some connections there, which helps the group’s business development.”

Jack Ma’s eyes changed imperceptibly, and he picked up the Qianxi document with his other hand and compared it with Qi Jia.

The meeting room fell silent for a moment. The other senior executives stopped speaking. They were all waiting for Jack Ma to make a decision before they could choose sides.

I don’t know how long I waited, but Jack Ma suddenly put down Qianxi’s information.

When Zhang Yong saw his action, his eyes narrowed slightly.

“It’s not a big problem if we don’t have capital. Aren’t we the biggest capital? Meng Ju said it well.

From the current perspective, Qi Jia’s personal ability and development prospects are indeed the best.”

After Jack Ma finished speaking, he glanced at the attendees and said, “Is the person in charge of strategy and investment of the Great Entertainment Group here?”

“I’m here, Mr. Ma”

Chen Jun, head of strategy and investment at Maochang Entertainment, quickly stood up and responded.

Jack Ma glanced at him, nodded, and said domineeringly,

“Find someone to contact Qi Jia and see if he will accept investment. The bottom line is to get the controlling stake in his studio and merge his team into the big entertainment group.”

“Give me a date for when there will be results.”

After he said this, including Meng Ju, the other senior executives understood that Jack Ma was going to choose Qi Jia.

As for holding, that is a normal operation. Two voices are not allowed in one cat farm.

Not to mention his small studio, the potatoes at that time must have been hungry, wasn’t it the same for Tiantiandongting?

I don’t know what kind of luck Qi Jia has that Jack Ma values ​​him so much.

“But Mr. Ma…” Just when everyone was lamenting Qi Jia’s bad luck, Chen Jun suddenly spoke up, and what he said was beyond everyone’s expectations.

“Qi Jia will probably not accept our controlling investment. Before the meeting, my investor reported that he had just rejected our investment in his new script.” Chen Jun said.

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the conference room, and many senior executives showed disbelief on their faces.

“What? Is Qi Jia crazy? How dare he reject our cat farm’s investment?”

“No one in the country dares to refuse investment in a cat farm. It seems Qi Jia is really getting carried away.”

“Banned! He must be banned!”

“Yes, ban him! Let him know the consequences of offending our cat farm.”

“…”

Everyone was talking at once, and basically all of them were asking the entertainment group to ban Qi Jia from the industry.

Meng Ju frowned and asked, “What’s the reason? Did he find an investor?”

Qi Jia’s new script was short of funds and he knew that the group wanted to invest, but he never thought that he would be rejected.

“No, Mr. Meng,” Chen Jun shook his head and said, “He probably thinks our investment conditions are too harsh.”

After he finished speaking, a debate broke out again in the meeting room.

“No, he only has a small studio. What’s there to be proud of?”

“Our cat farm is willing to invest because we think highly of him, but he is so ignorant.”

“No more words to say, just ban him!”

“…”

Meng Ju was silent. He had nothing to say at this point. Qi Jia was unwilling to give up even the right to speak on a play, let alone the controlling rights of the studio.

Given Maochang’s investment culture, it will not allow a studio that is independent of the group and uncontrolled to exist.

At this time, Jack Ma, who had been sitting on the table without saying anything, knocked on the table and said,

“What are you doing! We are a company, not a den of bandits. You can’t just block them at will. If they don’t want to, then they don’t want to. Have I provoked you?

You are all senior executives of Fortune 500 companies. Why are you arguing with an artist? Can you open up to them?”

As soon as Lao Ma spoke, everyone fell silent. As executives of a Fortune 500 company, they naturally would not take Qi Jia seriously.

The reason I said this was just to show off in front of my boss.

“What about the brand spokesperson?” Zhang Yong asked.

“Let’s go with Qianxi.” Jack Ma left Qi Jia’s information behind, took out Qianxi’s information separately, and said, “Meng Ju, contact Qianxi’s team as soon as possible.”

“Okay, Mr. Ma,” Meng Ju quickly stood up and said.

The meeting is over.

Meng Ju looked at Qi Jia’s avatar in the WeChat address book and wanted to ask him why he rejected the investment from the cat farm?

Do you know how much good opportunity he missed because of this rejection?

But as soon as the call was made, he immediately hung up, thinking that perhaps young people need to fall a few more times before they can become sensible.

Capital Hotel,

Qi Jia looked at the call that was hung up inexplicably, not knowing that he had been blacklisted by the cat farm. After waiting for a while, there was no message from Meng Ju.

Thinking that the other party had called the wrong number, he was too lazy to bother about it. He put the phone aside and said to Zhang Ruonan and the others in the room,

“Let’s continue talking about tomorrow’s audition for “Awakening Age.”
