Chapter 343 - 343: Saving Money

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The agent was a little angry when he saw the owner tell He Meng the situation. He felt that he was too honest. What if he scared her away? He was also a little helpless. “It was indeed especially lively here previously, but after a few years, it has become cold and sparse.”

Not only were the shop owners having a hard time, but even agents like them were having a hard time.

The two of them thought that He Meng would back down after saying this. Unexpectedly, He Meng’s satisfaction increased when she heard this. After all, they were renting a place to open a personal studio, not a shop. It was more beneficial for them to have fewer people.

Hence, the only thing He Meng cared about was the price.

“In that case, since the customer flow here has decreased so much, the rent should be cheaper, right?” However, He Meng knew that her question was unnecessary.

The developers had spent so much money. They would rather leave the place empty than lower the price.

Seeing He Meng’s hesitation, the owner knew that she liked this place, but she was deterred by the price. Hence, he gave in and said, “If you want to rent it, I can transfer these things in the shop to you directly.”

He did not plan to open the shop again in the future, so it was useless to keep the things. They would either enter the second-hand market or be thrown away. Since he had closed the shop, he wanted to sell it as soon as possible. After all, he would have to pay another day’s rent if he kept it in his hands. It was also a burden to him.

Unfortunately, this condition was not attractive enough to He Meng, so she turned around and left.

Hearing He Meng’s description, Yu Han could tell that she really liked that place. “After hearing what you said, I’m a little curious about what that place is like. Why don’t you get the agent to stay for a while? I’ll find time to take a look. If the place is really good, it’s not impossible to consider it.”

After all, she did not lack money now. If the place was really good, although the rent was a little expensive, it was not impossible to pay it.

Yu Han thought for a moment. “Why don’t you open a business account? I’ll transfer a sum of money to you first. I don’t have to worry about money for the time being.”

Their initial funding for the studio was 10 million yuan. As the studio was under Starlight Entertainment, Starlight Entertainment took 30% of the shares.

Big Uncle Chen Hai did not agree with this share. “If you want to split so much, how different is it from you opening a studio within the company?” n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

However, Yu Han was very insistent. “I can’t just want benefits.” The studio was responsible for its own profits and losses. Only then could it shut the mouths of those people in the company. Secondly, Yu Han’s idea to rope Yuan Fei and Su Long into Starlight Entertainment back then was to share Big Uncle’s burdens and help him tide over the difficulties in the future.

In the end, they ran away with her. This made Yu Han feel a little guilty, so she had to make the studio a shield for Starlight Entertainment.

As Yu Han refused to give in, Chen Hai could only agree to it.

As for the remaining 70% of the shares, Yu Han invested more, so she took 40% and He Meng took 30%. Yu Han said that she wanted to transfer the money over, which meant that she wanted to transfer the nearly six million yuan she wanted.

He Meng shook her head and sighed. “It’s not about not having enough money.” If it was just to rent a better office, with their current financial resources, it would not be a problem to double the rent.

“It’s not just the rent.” He also had to consider the utility fees, transportation fees, administrative fees, and so on. In addition, they had to support a team when the time came. The monthly fixed expenses were not a small sum, let alone the various marketing fees.

The three people signed by the studio, including Yu Han herself, were still newcomers, let alone Su Long and Yuan Fei. They were currently at the stage of throwing money. She did not have Yu Han’s preemptive vision and did not know that Su Long and Yuan Fei would become popular after the drama was broadcast, so she could not help but worry more.

He Meng told him her thoughts. “So, save as much money as you can.”

Yu Han had never started a company before, so she did not know much about it. Hearing He Meng’s words, she could only agree. “Then do as you see fit. If you need money, you can tell me..1‘
