Just like Wang Xuan left Tianyu, it was naturally impossible for Lu Tianyu and Zhu Xu to publicize Zhu Xu's departure from Tianyu. But there is no impenetrable wind. At least within Tianyu, the news of Zhu Xu's resignation has spread.
Zhu Xu has been based in Tianyu for ten years, and his business ability, management ability, and behavior are all convincing. His departure made the whole Tianyu panic and almost fell into turmoil.
But it finally stabilized.
Tianyu is about to go public, which after all excites many people, but also covers up many problems.
After some comfort from Lu Tianyu and Xu Ke, few people care about Zhu Xu's fate, and they are all looking forward to what will happen after Tianyu goes public.
When people leave, the tea is cool, nothing more than this.
But in fact, there were still people who were concerned about Zhu Xu's fate, so Li Tao and Chen Kai went directly to Zhu Xu's home.
When the two met Zhu Xu, Zhu Xu was watering the flowers and looked no different from usual.
"Here we come." Zhu Xu didn't seem surprised by the arrival of the two of them.
"Lao Zhu, what's going on? I was filming outside, and as soon as I returned to Tianyu, I heard the news that you had resigned... And didn't I say before that you took a month-long leave? Why did you suddenly resign?" Chen Kai asked impatiently.
"It's nothing. If you want to leave, just leave." Zhu Xu said.
"I don't believe it! You have put so much effort into Tianyu. When you and I were drinking some time ago, you made a great wish to lead Tianyu to attack the giants. If nothing happened, how could you suddenly resign? Wait, I understand, right? Because Tianyu is about to go public, Lu Tianyu wants to kick you out?" Chen Kai thought of something while he was talking, looked at Zhu Xu and asked.
"What an ungrateful bitch!" Li Tao said.
"It's not what you think. I did take the initiative to resign, and Lu Tianyu even tried to persuade me to stay," Zhu Xu said.
"Then why do you want to resign? Tianyu is about to go public. Wouldn't it be a big loss to resign at this time?" Chen Kai asked.
"The main reason why I left my job was because Tianyu went public." Zhu Xu said.
"Ah? How do you say this?" Chen Kai was stunned.
"I generally understand. Brother Xu is probably not optimistic about Tianyu's listing. He doesn't want to see Tianyu destroyed under his own eyes?" Li Tao said.
"That's right." Zhu Xu nodded.
"...No, what riddles are you two playing? Why am I getting more and more confused the more I listen to it? Isn't it good news that Tianyu is listed? Why is it still related to destruction?"
"It is related. A regular listing, a natural listing, is definitely good news, but Tianyu's listing is a DPO!" Li Tao said.
"What the hell is a DPO?"
"DPO, also known as direct listing, is a method of making a company's stock publicly traded without the help of a bank for an initial public offering (IPO). Simply put, DPO does not need to cooperate with investment banks and can directly hold existing investors privately The shares are traded on the exchange.
Traditional listing is also called initial public offering (DPP). This listing method requires hiring a securities dealer, cooperating with one or more investment banks, and going through a series of processes before listing.
The DPO is not required.
DPO has no primary market and no securities firms, which reduces many links and can greatly shorten the time required for listing. However, this listing method is very risky and is easily affected by market fluctuations. And without going through all aspects of evaluation, companies that use DPO to list have very poor risk resistance. "Li Tao explained on the sidelines.
"So Tianyu's listing is a direct listing?" Chen Kai asked.
"Yes. Lu Tianyu made a very bad move. Now Tianyu does not have the ability to go public directly. In other words, direct listing is not something ordinary companies can afford, and technology giants like Huayao are about the same. . All in all, the prospect of Tianyu going public is very average. If it goes wrong, it will be doomed." Li Tao said.
"But since the risk of direct listing is so high, why would Lu Tianyu choose direct listing?"
"Having said it, direct listing can greatly shorten the time required for listing. If Tianyu is not directly listed but goes for IPO, it will at least be listed on the stock exchange by the end of next year.
In fact, Tianyu is thriving because of Xuan Geer's joining. If this development trend continues, Tianyu will definitely be qualified to go public in five years. Therefore, Brother Xu and I had talked about the listing of Tianyu. At that time, our idea was to list Tianyu in five years.
Lu Tianyu was too impatient. I guess he had long wanted to go public directly, so he ignored Brother Xuan's feelings and called on fans to vote for "Fairy Sword" in order to boost Tianyu's popularity. Reputation. As a result, "Fairy Sword" did win the award, and Tianyu did gain popularity, attention, and popularity, but Brother Xuan left Tianyu because of this.
This is like picking up sesame seeds and losing the watermelon. Lu Tianyu undoubtedly shot himself in the foot.
After Brother Xuan left Tianyu, Tianyu's great situation has been ruined. Even though Tianyu won numerous awards at music festivals and earned a lot of popularity, popularity, and attention, these are all in vain.
The popularity, attention, and popularity can indeed facilitate the company's listing in the beginning. I estimate that when Tianyu first went public a while ago, there will be many investors who are optimistic about Tianyu, and there will be many investors who are willing to buy Tianyu stocks, but this is also false. ,Short-lived.
The listing of a company is not only about the beginning, but also about the follow-up. What is the company's strength and what is its subsequent development momentum? What about the financial statements? What is the annual profit? This is very important and is the source of investor confidence in a listed company.
With all due respect, the current Tianyu cannot guarantee investors' confidence in Tianyu at all. Brother Xuan is still around, but Brother Xuan has left Tianyu, and the development of Tianyu has come to a standstill, or there may be some negative news, such as losses in making movies, losses in programming, etc., which can easily cause panic among stock investors.
If someone with intentions takes advantage of it and causes investors to sell Tianyu's shares on a large scale, Tianyu will be in catastrophe. "Li Tao said.
"The analysis is good. This is a very simple truth. Unfortunately, Mr. Lu is already obsessed with the prospect of Tianyu going public and can't listen to anything." Zhu Xu said.
"So the shares I hold are not very dangerous?" Chen Kai asked. As a member of the Double Billion Box Office Club, Chen Kai also holds shares in Tianyu, but not much, only 3%.
"It is indeed dangerous, but it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter if I don't want those shares, I already plan to not want them anyway." Li Tao said.
"...Lao Li, I heard what you said. You don't want to leave Tianyu too, do you?" Chen Kai said.
"That's for sure! In fact, after Brother Xuan left Tianyu, I felt that staying in Tianyu was not right. I thought about leaving for a while, but then I thought that Brother Xu was still in Tianyu. I was recruited into Tianyu by Brother Xu. Thanks to Brother Xu A lot of care, it would be too sorry for Brother Xu to leave like this, so I stayed. Now that Brother Xu has left Tianyu, what should I do in Tianyu?" Li Tao said.
"Brother Tao, don't be impulsive. I have already left Tianyu. If you leave Tianyu again, Tianyu will be half paralyzed." Zhu Xu said.
"No. Brother Xu, don't think of me too important. I'm actually a dispensable role in Tianyu. Lu Tianyu probably wants me to leave. I still remember when you helped me fight for the stock. Right? Lu Tianyu delayed it for a year before reluctantly giving me 5% of the shares." Li Tao said.
"..." Zhu Xu really couldn't refute what he said.
In fact, Li Tao has very strong business capabilities, and has strong interpersonal, social, and comprehensive abilities in all aspects. He is by no means a dispensable role. This is also the reason why Zhu Xu tried his best to win shares for Li Tao.
Yes, he has a good relationship with Li Tao, but he is a very principled person. He makes a clear distinction between public affairs and private affairs. He will never do favoritism for Li Tao just because he has a good relationship with Li Tao.
But Lu Tianyu just didn't like Li Tao. It's just that Lu Tianyu didn't care about things for a long time and let him take charge. Otherwise, Li Tao probably wouldn't have a very happy life in Tianyu.
Thinking of this, Zhu Xucai nodded: "That's okay, but remember to do a good job in handing over when the time comes."
"That's for sure!" Li Tao said.
"No, so you just left like this? Abandoned me like this?" Chen Kai said.
"You can also choose to leave with us." Li Tao said.
"Before the question came up, Lu Tianyu came to me and told me that Tianyu was going to be listed and that he planned to increase my shareholding to 5% and let me stay in Tianyu and work hard. At that time, I didn't know that you were all leaving Tianyu, so I agreed. We just have to sign the agreement. Is it better to leave Tianyu suddenly now?" Chen Kai said.
"In that case, you should stay in Tianyu and work hard. In fact, you are different from me. Lu Tianyu doesn't want to see me, but he does want to see you, because he needs you to make money for him by making movies. And although I am the head of the music department, But he doesn’t know how to compose music, so maybe in his mind, I’m just a jobber.” Li Tao said.
"...Then what are you going to do after leaving Tianyu?" Chen Kai was curious.
"I haven't thought about it yet, just take it one step at a time." Zhu Xu said.
"You two should have made a lot of money in Tianyu, right? It shouldn't be a problem to open a brokerage company together?" Chen Kai suggested.
"The money is definitely enough, but forget it. Li Tao and I have good business capabilities in all aspects and have some connections, but we still have few high-end connections. It is too difficult to rise when opening a new agency. Are artists willing to join us? Our signing is a problem. Another thing is that it has taken a lot of effort to bring Tianyu to where it is now, and adding another agency is simply not enough." Zhu Xu said.
"What do you think we should go over together and join Brother Xuan?" Li Tao suggested.
"Brother Xuan, that must be a good place. Even though Tianhai is disabled now, as long as Brother Xuan is here, Tianhai's rise will be a matter of time.
It is difficult for us to open a new agency to rise. The difficulty is that we do not have high-end connections and no bait to attract artists to sign contracts. And Brother Xuan himself has high-end connections, and it is very easy to expand high-end connections with high-end connections. As long as there is no grudge against Brother Xuan in the entertainment industry, who will not give him face?
As for the artist, it's not a problem. Everyone knows how good Brother Xuan is at applauding artists. As long as Brother Xuan is around, artists will definitely fly towards the sky like moths towards a flame. "Zhu Xu said.
"It's true. It's been rumored recently that Tianhai has been in contact with some big-name artists, but aren't they willing to sign a contract with Tianhai? As a result, Brother Xuan got mad when he walked on the red carpet. Haoyan said that big-name artists who don't want to sign with Tianhai now will not do so in the future. I want to enter Tianhai’s door. Even international superstars who don’t want to sign with Tianhai now will never want to enter Tianhai’s door in the future.”
"Yes, I also watched the video of Brother Xuan walking on the red carpet and being interviewed. Today you are indifferent to Tianhai, but tomorrow Tianhai will make you unable to reach him. How domineering." Chen Kai agreed.
"So let's go to Brother Xuan together?" Li Tao looked at Zhu Xu.
"Go ahead and let me think about it." Zhu Xu said.
"...If you want to go, let's go together! Brother Xu, what's there to consider? Don't you feel comfortable working with Brother Xuan?"
Zhu Xu shook his head but didn't say anything. In fact, Tianhai is definitely a good place to go. The problem is that Tianhai has lost his place. Tianhai already has a director, Weng Qiuping, the former boss of Tianhai.
Do you want Weng Qiuping to make way for him?
How can it be?
