Chapter 339 Four major sections, the Chamber of Commerce invites
91 Company.
Ma Chaohui raised his hand and knocked on the door. After receiving the boss's approval, he pushed the door open and entered the office, bowing and greeting: "Mr. Yin, good morning."
"Good morning, Mr. Ma. Let's sit down and chat." Yin Zhaotang bit his cigar, half leaning back in the chair, with a comfortable smile.
Seeing that the boss was in a good mood, Ma Chaohui loosened his tie, picked up the documents, sat in the guest chair, and began to report on the magazine's sales.
91 Magazine is a business that is on the right track. Normally, nothing major happens there, and the sales of each issue of the pornographic magazine is stable at around .
After a magazine goes through its explosive growth period, readers will definitely become fatigued, and there will be a threshold for seeing too many nude photos. It is impossible for it to sell 300,000 copies every issue.
The fact that the volume has been stabilized at 250,000 copies is a result of Ma Chaohui's proper management and the fact that the big boss has put in a lot of effort.
Colleagues in the newspaper industry often say that the more than one hundred employees of 91 Company are all supported by Shenxiantang's "Xianshi Heart Sutra".
How many girls do you have to play with to come up with so many creative ideas!
My younger brother is completely bald.
As 91 magazine became popular in Hong Kong Island, Shenxiantang was nicknamed "the leader of romance" among young readers aged between and .
Because many of their romantic games and boudoir techniques were learned from 91 magazine.
The sales of the magazine indirectly guarantee the business of 91 Chigua Newspaper and the social group Malan, which is an important branch of Yin Zhaotang's company.
According to the classification method of later generations, his current company is divided into 91 Media Business Group, Pegasus Sneakers Business Group, Zhonghe Electronics Business Group and Community Gray Business Group, a total of four major areas, involving magazines, newspapers, comics, sports shoe brands, clothing production, call machine assembly and sales, as well as minibus companies, construction companies, night market management, valet parking and other industries.
Besides, the agency is not well established and is just a small business, which cannot be called a career.
With Lao Zhong's current strength, it is enough for him to use the agency as a springboard to enter the entertainment industry and get a share of the pie.
However, Yin Zhaotang himself is already extremely busy and needs to integrate the company's personnel before he can free up time to start his new business.
Recently, many company leaders have been promoted, with Ma Chaohui being the fastest promoted. He is now the vice president and editor-in-chief of 91 Magazine Company.
He is in charge of the entire 91 Media Business Group and reports directly to the big boss. The rest of Zhonghe Electronics has recruited a group of new managers from Taiwan.
Ale began to serve as deputy factory manager, participated in management, and became the head of Zhonghe Electronics.
The Pegasus business group is managed by the left hand. Each gray industry has its own big base to take charge. The minibus companies and brokerage companies are too small and have been directly handed over to professional managers.
Regardless of whether he is right or wrong, in fact, being able to become the head of a business group is equivalent to becoming a partner of the group in Yin Zhaotang's business empire.
However, the brothers who followed him to start the business have invested money and risked their lives, and most of them have received very high dividends in the company.
People like Ma Chaohui who are promoted through the manager route are rewarded with options and year-end bonuses, but the performance appraisal rules are very strict, and they will be fired if their results are not good.
Maintain a certain clearing mechanism to prevent the company from falling into internal corruption.
If anyone dares to do something dirty under his nose, he will make him spit it out twice as much.
Letting the brothers around him gradually turn from black to white and participate in the management of Zhengxing Company is actually the path that Yin Zhaotang has always adhered to.
Even Jiang Hao has a chain of hotels to hone his management skills. When the big guys all switch to legitimate businesses, the gray industries with pitifully low efficiency can be handed over to their subordinates to do, and then even Lao Zhong will be defeated by the iron fist.
They are still standing as a group.
What's more, Hong Kong's special status as "both domestic and overseas" in the future is naturally suitable for this kind of gameplay.
(According to immigration control regulations, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan belong to the domestic territory, but they need to apply for visas and go through customs just like foreign countries. Administratively, they are aligned with "overseas" and belong to "domestic and overseas")
Ma Chaohui also reported on the sales of the first issue of the "Young and Dangerous" comics, which was distributed by 91 Company and sold in the form of newspapers.
The first issue of the 91 comics newspaper was a supplement, given to readers and newsstands who subscribed to the annual subscription. Thirteen thousand copies were distributed, and more than thirty thousand comics newspaper subscriptions were received.
The number of subscriptions to the first issue of a comic strip is related to the strength of the distribution channel and has nothing to do with the newspaper's true potential.
More than 30,000 copies are already a good start. As long as the quality is up to standard, subsequent subscriptions will continue to increase.
The most profitable form of comics is not newspaper format. The number of newspaper copies is too small, which affects the readership. The advantage is that it is cheap and can only be used as a way to increase sales.
The real way to make money is to publish the books. When the first "Young and Dangerous" was officially completed, one copy could be sold for more than 100 Hong Kong dollars, and it was more than a dozen thick copies.
Selling 10,000 copies would bring a profit of one million, and the market in Hong Kong Island is probably around 30,000 to 50,000 copies.
It cannot support a large company, but as a copyright production department, a profit is a victory. If you want to make big money, the next step is to adapt the IP into film and television.
After reporting the progress of his work, Ma Chaohui breathed a sigh of relief. He raised his teacup and moistened his throat. He said, "Mr. Yin, the Chaozhou Chamber of Commerce has sent you an invitation letter, inviting you to attend the Chamber of Commerce dinner next Friday."
Yin Zhaotang took the invitation letter he handed over, opened it and read it. He was very interested and raised his eyebrows and said, "It's actually signed by President Chen himself."
The Chaozhou Chamber of Commerce, also known as the Eight Districts Chamber of Commerce, is located in the Chaozhou Association on Des Voeux Road in Sheung Wan. It has branches in more than 50 countries and regions around the world.
As long as you pass by an address with a Chaozhou Association sign, you will know that it is home to the Chaozhou business community, which is mainly composed of the Eight Counties of Chaozhou.
There are three associations on Hong Kong Island alone: Sheung Wan, Fanling and Cheung Chau.
Of course, the Chaozhou Association of the world is a loose organization, mainly composed of local chambers of commerce. Only the World Chaozhou Merchants Conference held from time to time can attract Chaozhou merchants from all over the world to return home.
There is only one "Global Chaoshan Friendship and Solidarity Association" as a communication platform. Among the Chaoshan business groups around the world, the Hong Kong Chaoshan Chamber of Commerce is first-class and has influence throughout East Asia.
The current president, Mr. Chen Youqing, JP, is the eldest son of Chen Bicheng, the founder of Bangkok Bank, the largest bank in Thailand.
Chen Youqing himself is the chairman of Asia Financial Group, which operates insurance and financial investments in Hong Kong Island.
Receiving the invitation letter from President Chen proves that Lao Zhong, the top figure of the Chaozhou Gang, has made the Chamber of Commerce no longer disqualified from raising its own status.
Although the Chamber of Commerce had long noticed the rise of Lao Zhong, it always treated Lao Zhong with courtesy and kept a certain distance as it prided itself on being one of the most prominent business forces in Hong Kong.
Yin Zhaotang looked down on Fei Mao and Gao Laosen, and his actions were outstanding. But as a sharp businessman, Yin Zhaotang knew that there was a force to be borrowed from the Chaoshan business gang, but he never visited them.
It is the nature of businessmen to chase after rising prices and sell when prices fall, and to praise the high and trample the low.
Any organization united by interests can only become a younger brother if it bends down.
Therefore, Yin Zhaotang waited for the Chaozhou Chamber of Commerce to come and invite him to join the association. Today, he finally waited for it and was treated with great courtesy. Handing the invitation letter to 91 Company also had a profound meaning.
