"..." Dong Mingzhu looked at the magnificent building in front of her, and her steps couldn't help but hesitate.

Dong Mingzhu actually came to the Forbidden City, but it was more than 10 years ago. She just got married and was visiting the Forbidden City on her honeymoon with her husband. At that time, each of the two spent 30 cents to enter the Forbidden City. Now the Forbidden City ticket has increased to 5 yuan, which makes Dong Mingzhu sigh at the changes in the times.

But this time, Dongmingzhu no longer came as a tourist, but as a business negotiation. At the same time, they also needed to persuade the Forbidden City to rent the square in front of the Hall of Supreme Harmony to hold a press conference for them. This difficulty made Dongmingzhu's head almost explode.

However, even so, Dong Mingzhu still chose to come to the Forbidden City to discuss first. After all, compared with the Great Hall of the People, the Forbidden City feels more likely. After all, the Forbidden City is essentially just a museum in the Celestial Empire, and its status is far from comparable to that of the Great Hall of the People.

After taking a few deep breaths, Dong Mingzhu brought two secretaries to the door of the Forbidden City Management Office. When Dong Mingzhu tried to enter, a small incident happened, that was, the two security guards guarded there stopped Dong Mingzhu and said that this was not a place to buy tickets and tourists were prohibited from entering. If you need to visit the Forbidden City, you can go to the ticket gate to buy tickets.

"We are here to negotiate business cooperation with the Forbidden City, and we have called in advance!" Dong Mingzhu took a deep breath and said, but she was still ready to be kicked out by the security guard.

Although Dong Mingzhu did communicate with the Forbidden City Management Office when he arrived in the imperial capital yesterday, the Forbidden City's attitude was very flat on the phone. The girl who answered the phone was even reluctant to pay attention to Dong Mingzhu several times. Finally, after Dong Mingzhu's continuous confirmation, she finally said that Dong Mingzhu could come to the Forbidden City Management Office to communicate on the second day, and then hung up the phone.

This gave Dong Mingzhu a lot of unknown premonitions.

"Oh! You are from Daqian Group, right?" Unexpectedly, the security guard had already known the identity of Dong Mingzhu and his group, and then took the initiative to lead Dong Mingzhu and others into a large room in the Forbidden City Management Office.

Although this seemed to be just a very normal etiquette, it made the clever Dong Mingzhu keenly feel that the situation seemed to be a little different.

Dong Mingzhu and others did not wait for a long time, but a middle-aged man came over with a few people, took the initiative to shake hands with Dong Mingzhu, and then introduced himself to his identity. He turned out to be the director of the Open Management Office of the Palace Museum.

"Based on your previous communications on the phone, Daqian Group hopes to borrow the venue of our Forbidden City to hold a press conference, right?" asked the director of the Open Management Office.

"Yes, that's right!" Dong Mingzhu nodded.

"Then where do you want to hold a press conference?" the director of the management department asked with a frown.

"We hope to be able to do it in the area of ​​the Supreme Hall Square!" Dong Mingzhu said quickly, and this location was also discussed by Dong Mingzhu and Boss Jia.

The Palace of Supreme Harmony Square is the largest square in the Forbidden City area. It can accommodate tens of thousands of people at the same time, and it is more than enough to hold a press conference.

In addition, the background of the Taihe Hall Square is the magnificent Taihe Hall, which is also the largest palace in the Forbidden City. The shock brought by the background is huge.

"Oh, are you enough to just stay in the Plaza of the Palace of Supreme Harmony? Don't you want to hold a press conference inside the palace?" The director of the Management Office had an inexplicable expression of surprise on his face.

"No, we are not interested in holding press conferences inside the palace!" Dong Mingzhu said quickly, "We also understand the protection of ancient buildings. Holding press conferences inside the palace will definitely cause certain damage to the palace. Our Daqian Group will not do such things."

"In addition, the internal function is actually a bit small, and it is not suitable for us to hold a large press conference with a scale of thousands of people and a target of more than 1 billion TV viewers around the world, so the Taihe Palace Square is more suitable for us!"

"Okay!" The director of the Management Office immediately smiled like a flower. "Then how much money are you willing to pay!"

"Now we start talking about money?" Dong Mingzhu was stunned for a moment. When she started talking about money, it means there was a chance!

"The price is of course determined by your Palace Museum, we don't know!" Dong Mingzhu said quickly.

"So..." The director of the Management Office showed a hesitant expression on his face. After repeated confusion, he said, "Then you see, what is the price of RMB 1 million?"

"No problem, we completely agree with this price!" The management office thought that the other party would discuss with him for a long time for the price, but Dong Mingzhu replied decisively, without hesitation at all.

"That's what it's decided!" The director of the Management Office showed an anxious look than Dong Mingzhu, and directly agreed. This business negotiation, which seemed almost impossible in Dong Mingzhu, was successfully successful so smoothly.

In the next few days, Dongmingzhu also met the president of the Palace Museum, and then signed a business cooperation agreement with the president on the spot, including a large clause on the protection of ancient buildings and how Daqian Group should compensate if there is damage. In addition, various equipment at the press conference were also strictly restricted to avoid damage to ancient buildings.

Dong Mingzhu looked at it and found that although the restrictions were relatively strict, it would not have much impact on the holding of the press conference. So the two sides signed the contract very smoothly and settled the matter completely in less than three days.

On June 6th, the Palace Museum was in seclusion all day, and various materials from Daqian Group could be admitted three days in advance. After 8 am on the 6th, the venue could be arranged in the Taihe Palace Square, and finally the press conference was held at 6 pm.

Although the conditions are relatively strict, this has already made Dong Mingzhu overjoyed. After the agreement was signed, he immediately ran back to Yuzhang to report the good news to our boss Jia.

"I really didn't expect things would go so well!" Dong Mingzhu looked at our boss Jia and said in surprise.

"All this was as expected!" Boss Jia smiled slightly. This sentence was not a hindsight. In fact, whether it was the Great Hall of the People or the Palace Museum, it was commercialized in the 1990s and 10s, especially the Palace Museum. Later, there were various commercial activities almost every week.

However, this cannot be blamed on the Palace Museum's greed. On the contrary, the Palace Museum needs a lot of maintenance, so it requires a lot of funds.

In China, even many state-owned enterprises went bankrupt forcibly, so there was no large amount of funds for the Palace Museum. Many employees of the Palace Museum were in arrears of wages, so the Palace Museum could only find ways to save themselves, which led to many commercializations later.

In fact, even the Great Hall of the People can rent it as long as it is willing to rent it during non-state meetings, even the Central Hall is the same. This is a fact, not a joke.

But after the 10s, the country became prosperous and strong, and various self-media gradually developed. Many things were exposed online as soon as they happened. The Palace Museum was questioned one after another on commercialization, so it gradually stopped commercialization of various possible destruction of cultural relics, and instead switched to the Palace Museum's cultural and creative products, which won a good turning point and development.

At this time, the Palace Museum was the most difficult time for funding, and the country had issued documents that allowed various museums to exert their subjective initiative, allow appropriate commercialization and create fiscal revenue.

Therefore, the Palace Museum has long wanted to do some commercialization, but because of the famous name of the Palace Museum, many companies dare not make any decisions on the Palace Museum.

This time, Daqian Group's active contact actually made the entire Palace Museum very excited and happy, especially when they learned that Daqian Group was just using the Taihe Palace Square and would not harm any cultural relics, they wanted to promote this cooperation even more than Dongmingzhu.

The price of 1 million is not unrelated. Even if Dongmingzhu reaches 300,000, the Palace Museum will agree.

However, 1 million is not a drop in the bucket for Daqian, and there is nothing to worry about.

On the other hand, as Boss Jia asked, when the whole world learned that this press conference would be held in the serious Forbidden City, the whole world's eyes were extremely concerned about this press conference!
