Chapter 117 More money is needed
Chapter 117...More Money Required
There is only one day holiday on New Year's Day.
Including Saturday and Sunday, I have three days off in total.
April 2005, 1.
Fan Wumian had just woken up naturally when he got up and saw a text message from his public relations officer Ji Qiao, telling him that he had been on the front page again.
I didn’t have time to brush my teeth or wash my face. I checked on the computer first and found a lot of news.
One of the articles has a title: "A poor boy makes a fortune! He goes to Beijing to buy a 10,000-square-foot detached house!"
The content was roughly that he was interviewed last night and publicly admitted that he had purchased two villas with a construction area of about 4600 square feet in Shenzhen, located next to a golf course.
It also comes with two villas and photos of the surrounding environment, which look very luxurious.
In the article, the reporter said that after he became famous with an album, he made millions by taking on advertising endorsements, successfully upgrading his portfolio. Finally, he mentioned that he was also renovating his old house, so it was obvious that he had done his homework.
This article has attracted hundreds of comments.
One netizen wrote: "What a fool! With so much money, how can you buy a house in Shenzhen?"
Some netizens also commented that
——“1000 million can buy two -square-foot houses in the Leighton Hill in Happy Valley. Even if they are rented out, the monthly rent can be .”
The new house that Zhuang Muxi’s family just bought is in The Leighton Hill in Happy Valley. This new property has a very good location and is very popular in Hong Kong.
After reading these comments, Fan Wumian just smiled.
He knew very well that his choice was not wrong, and of course there was no need to compete with these short-sighted strangers.
It’s a pity that we probably have to wait a few more years before we can slap these guys in the face and let them know what it means to have a keen eye.
Use your mouse to cross out the web page and continue reading other news.
I accidentally discovered an article that mentioned Yu Bai, the leading actor in "Moonlight Cave", "Young King" and "The Legend of the Condor Heroes". Last year, he used his entire net worth of 260 million yuan to buy two courtyard houses in Yanjing.
One is located near Lama Temple and covers an area of approximately 150 square meters, and the other is located near Shichahai and covers an area of approximately 300 square meters.
same.
Actor Yu Bai's actions were severely ridiculed by the reporter who wrote the article.
He said that the old house he bought was about to collapse and didn’t even have a toilet. He had no movies to shoot recently and was busy supervising the renovation of the old house all day.
Yu Bai is a mainland actor, but the film and television company he signed with has close cooperation with Hong Kong.
"Water Moon Cave" which was broadcast more than half a year ago was extremely popular. Hong Kong actresses such as Cai Xiaofen and Chen Falong played the female lead, which naturally made Yu Bai famous in Hong Kong.
After reading this news.
Fan Wumian's eyes were so bright that they were glowing.
He had studied in Yenching University for a few years, so how tempting was the words "260 million to buy two courtyard houses"?
Check the relevant information quickly.
It was discovered that just a few months ago, American news tycoon Murdoch spent about 1000 million RMB to buy a courtyard house in Yanjing.
The location of that courtyard house is incredibly good.
It is only separated from the Forbidden City by a moat, and it is not wrong to say that it is separated by a wall. Standing on the roof terrace, you can see the roof of the Forbidden City’s main hall. It was described by mainland reporters as "the first ring house of Yanjing".
Not only did Fan Wumian know about this courtyard house, he had also passed by its entrance many times in his previous life. It was said to be worth hundreds of millions.
It's no longer exciting.
He could even feel his heart beating rapidly.
Considering that he was going to study in Yanjing and would probably stay there often, Fan Wumian hurriedly used Baidu to continue searching for courtyard houses for sale.
Unfortunately, only some shabby little houses were found. I guess many agents are not used to posting property information online.
The more than one million yuan in dividends from Mingrong International Music Company has not yet been received. However, there is more than 1800 million yuan in the accounts of the two companies under his name, and some money is still coming in from time to time.
When I have nothing to do.
Fan Wumian has already considered what to do with the remaining money after paying taxes and has started making plans for the next step.
Letting this money lie in a bank account and earn interest is obviously equivalent to "begging with a golden bowl".
Just in case.
His original idea was to use part of the money for financial management and part of it for investment in the entertainment industry.
The main requirement is to hedge risks and make steady progress.
Buying a courtyard house now and making dozens of times the profit in a dozen years is undoubtedly a very good financial project.
Calm down and think about it again.
Fan Wumian thinks that it might be better to use the money to buy penguin stocks instead of buying a house.
However, stocks are invisible and intangible, but the enjoyment brought by the courtyard house is real. It is also good to regard it as a dream come true. Moreover, if there is an opportunity to take out a loan, you don’t need to pay too much money at one time.
Since no matter how he thought about it, the result was still love, Fan Wumian stopped worrying about it.
After brushing your teeth and washing your face.
He called his agent Jiang Shixi and asked, "Brother Jiang, what have you been busy with these days?"
Jiang Shixi's tone was a little nervous, and he smiled awkwardly:
"I've been busy for so long. Today I'm at home with my kids, but I haven't given up on work. There's a company that seems to be interested in you as a spokesperson, but its product is a little special, and they haven't finalized it yet, so I haven't told you yet, for fear that you might be too excited for nothing."
I let out a sigh. I didn't expect there would be such a pleasant surprise.
Fan Wumian replied:
"You should spend more time with your family during the holidays. I was a little negligent before. I plan to arrange a bonus for you recently. Let's count it together during the Spring Festival. What does special product mean? Are you going to ask me for anti-hair loss shampoo, hemorrhoid cream, brain tonic medicine, etc.?"
"No, no, no! This company is very formal and very large. It was listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange a few years ago."
Jiang Shixi couldn't help laughing and said:
"You are a male celebrity, and endorsing women's menstrual pads is a little inappropriate, isn't it?"
"Heng'an Group thinks that you have a lot of female fans, which may help increase product sales. In addition to sanitary pads, they also have the Kokoro Sakura tissue brand."
"They want to find a group spokesperson to endorse all of their products at once. The price has not been discussed yet, but it should be high."
"."
It was indeed unexpected.
Fan Wumian hesitated for a while and said:
"Auntie is the spokesperson? I have to save face, but since the company is large, it is not impossible to negotiate for a higher fee."
Jiang Shixi continued:
"Well, I understand. I will talk to them seriously. It's a pity that the topic has become less popular. Otherwise, it would be easier to win this brand. This company is still in contact with Cai Linyi. She seems to want 600 million. Boss, you are cheaper. You obviously have the advantage."
Cheaper is the truth.
The sales of the genuine album "That Girl" by Fan Wumian are higher than those of Jay Chou's "Qilixiang".
The price for the endorsement is less than half of the other party, and the overall level of the brand is also much lower.
Jay Chou has obtained endorsements from Panasonic, DHC cosmetics, Pepsi and others this year, and has already earned around 2000 million Hong Kong dollars in the past period of time.
Never mind the details.
Fan Wumian touched the back of his head and thought:
"In fact, I have a song that I haven't recorded yet, which should be very helpful in boosting the sales of ringtones. I will record it in the next two days and ask the Internet water army team to help with free promotion online. Maybe it can attract some hot topics."
Obviously referring to the song "Mic Master".
He has signed a contract with a telecommunications operator and successfully launched more than 50 ringtones.
However, the efficiency of the telecommunications operator is a bit slow.
By the time this batch of ringtones were actually launched, the days when it was most popular had already passed, causing Fan Wumian to miss a great opportunity for promotion.
Since many of the new songs in this batch of ringtones have never been heard by anyone, few people have placed special orders for them except his loyal fans.
In addition, most mobile phone ringtone users only like to look for suitable ringtones on the best-selling rankings.
One to two to go.
After being online for several days, only two songs, "Dou Xiang" and "That Girl", have successfully made it onto the best-selling charts of telecommunications operators, and their positions are relatively low, ranking in the 30s or 40s.
Thinking that he might see improvement if he covered himself up, Fan Wumian was not too anxious.
After all, the quality is there, and as long as it gets enough exposure, it will easily soar to the sky.
On the other side of the phone.
Jiang Shixi said:
"Oh, by the way, I asked about the sales for you. A telecommunications operator told me that they are preparing to launch a 'wireless music ranking', and then you can directly see the sales of each ringtone from it. Since there is a chance, then you can give it a try. I will call Ji Qiao later and send a press release to the media after it goes online."
We chatted for a while.
Fan Wumian almost forgot why he was looking for Jiang Shixi.
Just before hanging up the phone, he asked the agent to help him inquire whether there were any courtyard houses listed for sale in the Yanjing market recently.
Don't choose old houses that are small in size and located in remote areas.
His requirements are that the house must be within the Second Ring Road, the larger the area, the better, the newer the building, the better, the property rights must be clear, and it would be best if it could be cleaned up and lived in.
At the beginning of 2005.
The Yanjing courtyard house has not yet been labeled as "sky-high priced luxury home". Many people have even sold their old and dilapidated courtyards and moved into the commercial housing they have longed for.
Jiang Shixi just felt that the boss's request was a bit strange, and had no other unnecessary reactions.
After asking, I learned that there was no price cap. The answer was that I would wait until tomorrow and find a real estate agent in Yanjing to help me call and ask if there were any courtyard houses that met the requirements.
Thinking about my cell phone ringtone, which has yet to become a hit, I may need a large sum of money in the future.
Fan Wumian called the owner of the Sapphire Blue Records Studio again and asked if he could go there to record a song today so that he could be paid some extra overtime pay.
nowadays.
He was an important client of Sapphire Record Studios, so the boss agreed without hesitation and immediately asked people to come over to work overtime.
As the Cantonese music scene becomes increasingly depressed, many practitioners are on the verge of unemployment and have already started to roll up their sleeves.
It's good to make money, who cares whether it is a legal holiday or not, and Fan Wumian is willing to pay overtime.
The background music for "Mai Ba" has been prepared in advance.
Because Fan Wumian was too busy recently and stayed in the mainland for more than half a month, he has not yet recorded this very special song.
Sapphire Records Studios.
Several staff members were looking forward to it and wanted to know what the final effect would be when he sang "Mai Ba".
