Chapter 126 First Step Plan

  Guo Xiaoyu really didn't expect that Zhou Jielun would actually bring Liu Tianwang over too, there was no mention of Liu Tianwang in their plan at all!

  Seeing Guo Xiaoyu staring at him like he had seen a ghost, Zhou Jie shrugged and said: "He seems to know that you did this thing, and he won't let me go. Then I thought about it, maybe he still has some use, so I brought him along too."

  "What's the point of me being here too." Liu Tianwang smiled and patted Zhou Jielun on the back, then looked at Guo Xiaoyu and said: "How about it? Since I'm already here, your matters can't escape me, speak up, Guo Xiaoyu, what are you secretly plotting?" Liu Tianwang's voice became lower and his expression more serious as he spoke.

  Now that things have come to this, it's impossible to cover up any longer, so I can only confess the truth. Actually, there's nothing to hide, it's just that saying it out loud sounds like a fairy tale.

  "What did you say?" When Liu Tianwang heard the three words "start a company" from Guo Xiaoyu's mouth, he really thought he had misheard. At the same time, he looked at Zhou Jielun with an incredulous face and asked: "Are you accompanying him in his madness?"

  "Don't be impatient, just keep listening to him."

  Seeing Liu Tianwang's "you're crazy" expression, Guo Xiaoyu couldn't help but think of Zhou Jielun and Jin Zhiwen's reaction when they first heard about this plan. He smiled and continued: "Actually, to be precise, we'll divide it into two steps. The first step is to set up a music studio that appears to be an empty shell company at the moment, specializing in making demos and soundtracks for others. This part will be handled by Jin Zhiwen, as his previous work was related to this, and he can quickly get started with the team, equipment, etc..."

  "Hold on." Liu Tianwang interrupted Guo Xiaoyu and asked, "What does this have to do with his withdrawal from the competition?"

  "Withdraw from the competition... This is also a helpless move." Guo Xiaoyu's face showed a difficult expression, and he said: "Hua Ge, you should know that behind Mango TV there is a Mango Media company, which I am currently signed with. Before the top six competition, they asked the twelve contestants to sign a ten-year contract, you should know what this represents..."

  After hearing Guo Xiaoyu's words, Liu Tianwang fell silent for a moment. This matter was simply his own version. Once the contract is signed, it would be equivalent to selling himself to Mango TV, and he would have to listen to Mango TV for everything. If there were any minor issues, he would have to accept their explanation. Liu Tianwang had encountered such problems in the past, but if not for meeting a benefactor who helped him develop his singing career, today's Liu Tianwang might still be just an obscure and insignificant small actor.

  Suddenly, Liu Tianwang thought of something and looked at Guo Xiaoyu, saying: "Jin Zhiwen withdrew from the competition to host this studio, what about you? You were in charge of this matter, what will you do? Will you also withdraw?"

  "I won't be able to withdraw from the competition." Guo Xiaoyu shook his head and said, "My contract with them is different. I signed a three-year contract with them before the competition, and my participation in the competition was also arranged by them. Moreover, I'm not just simply participating in the competition, there are many issues involved that can't be explained clearly at once. In short, if I withdraw now, anyone who has anything to do with me will not be able to survive in this circle..." When Guo Xiaoyu said these words, he himself was shocked. For the first time, he discovered that he had already stood on the edge of a cliff, and if he wasn't careful, he would fall off and shatter into pieces!

  "But..."

  "But how can I get out of this, huh?"

  Seeing Liu Tianwang nodding, Guo Xiaoyu's mouth corner revealed a triumphant smile, saying: "This dead end, the method to break it is only one kind, use thunderbolt-like speed and strike to break the situation..."

  "I don't understand..." Seeing Liu Tianwang's bewildered eyes, Zhou Jielun couldn't help but laugh, remembering how he had been hooked in the same way initially.

  "Don't you understand?" Guo Xiaoyu continued, "What I mean is that we need an external force, a force strong enough to break this stalemate, which is what's called 'borrowing momentum'..."

  "You're saying that once you become famous, you'll switch to another economic company?" Can't help but say, Liu Tianwang's brain is quite quick, at first Zhou Jielun was stunned for half a day, but this is still far from Guo Xiaoyu's plan.

  Guo Xiaoyu shook his head and said, "If I were to switch to another company, I would only fall into another trap."

  "So, you want to start a company?" Liu Tianwang said, immediately vetoing his own idea: "No way! Even if you wanted to come to the company, they wouldn't let you in anyway! And even if they did, they would suppress your company to death!"

  Seeing Liu Tianwang's worried look, Guo Xiaoyu slowly spat out five words: "We're doing special effects."

  "Make special effects?"

  "Right! That's what special effects are all about." Guo Xiaoyu took a big gulp of water and said, "All of James Cameron's films are built on the foundation of a massive special effects team. Overseas, special effects have been widely used in movies for some time now. However, domestically, it seems like people still haven't caught on to this point. Although those domestic films that claim to be worth hundreds of millions or even billions also use special effects, I won't comment on the quality. The most important thing is that they all invite foreign teams to produce them. In other words, domestically, we don't have our own special effects, but special effects are a future trend in film development. As long as we make significant breakthroughs in this field, we can establish ourselves domestically and even lead the domestic film industry. At that time, what bureau will be able to control us?" Although Guo Xiaoyu's words were spoken with great passion, they were actually full of holes. Liu Tianwang was no ordinary person, how could he not hear the flaws? He directly pointed them out:

  "Let's not talk about the special effects issue for now, even if it succeeds as you said, it can't be completed in three years. As for the special effects issue, we can get the equipment through our own channels, but what about talent? It's not that no one has thought of doing research in this area domestically, but those who have made some achievements are all national treasures, how can they possibly participate in our plan?"

  Liu Tianwang became more and more agitated as he spoke, while Guo Xiaoyu couldn't help but laugh with increasing joy. He wasn't afraid of Liu Tianwang's accusations, what he feared was that Liu Tianwang wouldn't take the bait. After Liu Tianwang finished speaking, Guo Xiaoyu finally opened his mouth to say: "I have a talented person!"

  "What do you have?"

  "Right!" Guo Xiaoyu nodded and said: "Among the group of people we played with when we were young, there was a child who was slightly older than us. His name is Qian Wenqi, three years older than us. When we were still in junior high school, he had already been admitted to Tsinghua University's youth class. After that, he spent two years completing all the courses and entered Harvard for further study in electronics, majoring in electronic special effects. He was one of the main creators of the special effects team for 'Avatar'. Three days ago, I received his call, saying he would be returning to China."

  Guo Xiaoyu finished speaking, Zhou Jielun and Liu Tianwang were both staring at him with their eyes wide open. Liu Tianwang was completely stunned, he didn't expect Guo Xiaoyu to have such a trump card in his hand. Tsinghua University's Young Talents Class! Finished all subjects in two years! Harvard further studies! One of the main creators of the special effects for "Avatar"! Any one of these identities could cause a magnitude 10 earthquake in China! But unexpectedly, they were all on one person! What's even more terrifying is that this person is only three years older than Guo Xiaoyu, which means he's only twenty-three years old! Too scary!

  However, Jay Chou was aware of all this, but Guo Xiaoyu only told him that someone who had participated in the special effects production of "Avatar" had joined them. At that time, Jay Chou was also deceived by Guo Xiaoyu and lacked thinking ability, agreeing with Guo Xiaoyu's idea to give it a try. As a result, he didn't expect that there would be such an awesome person here, this kind of person should go study spacecraft, atomic bombs! Why would they go study electronic special effects?
