Chapter 454: Billions of Dollars in Business
after eating.
Someone suggested going to KTV to sing again.
Tonight is a business reception, so naturally there won't be just a few men singing.
In Hengdian, a high-end place, the average appearance level of the girls is much higher than that in other cities.
Many girls originally wanted to try their luck at becoming actors, but after being beaten and realizing the reality, they chose to cross-industry jobs. As long as they can drink and handle things, they can easily earn hundreds of thousands a year, which is higher than the income of some small stars.
Unfortunately, this job is harmful to both the body and self-esteem. Most girls work in this field for a while, save enough money, and then change their ways and marry an honest man. It is rare to see such girls doing this again.
There are also some more powerful ones. They work low-key part-time jobs at night while filming, and occasionally accompany the bosses to sing, drink and eat, and can earn hundreds of thousands or even hundreds of thousands in one night.
Fan Wumian really wanted to go and broaden his horizons, but since Zhuang Muxi was still waiting for him, he finally said "next time" with great reluctance.
If you observe carefully.
You will find that when he declined, both Wang Baoqiang and Hu Ge were a little disappointed, and heartbroken for missing the opportunity to benefit from it.
As a star, there are not many opportunities to go to such occasions, and it is easy to get into trouble.
But it’s different when following Fan Wumian. If the sky falls, there is a tall man in front to support it, and I can find an excuse that it is for business talks.
Return to the VIP Hotel.
Zhuang Muxi was sitting in bed watching TV. She blinked and asked:
"How much did you drink today? I prepared yogurt and iced tea for you."
"It's okay, just two glasses of liquor, a little over half a pound in total. Maozi's stock has great potential for appreciation, but I'm not used to the sauce-flavored liquor. But after a good night's sleep, I'm basically fine. Some liquors give me a headache."
Fan Wumian took off his shoes and lay on the bed, and continued to say to her:
"Boss Qu wants to rebuild an Old Summer Palace here. The investment amount is quite large. I suspect that 30 billion RMB may not be enough. This garden has a different meaning to the Chinese people. The ruins of Beijing are still there to remind people not to forget the pain. I guess after the news gets out, it will take a long time before construction can start."
"Compared to this, he asked me to set up a joint venture entertainment company to do film distribution, production and cinema business, and plan to invest in 3 cinemas in three years. This is quite interesting."
"On average, the cost of each cinema is 300 million yuan, so the total investment is 6 million yuan. But the price of shops is not high now, so I think it is quite cost-effective to buy them directly for long-term use."
Hearing this number, Zhuang Muxi reminded:
"You didn't agree to this rashly, did you? Don't make any decisions after drinking too much, let alone sign any paper. It's easy to fall into a trap if you're not careful."
"No, I said I would come back and think about it. Boss Qu is a well-known wealthy man. I saw their planning proposal, it was very detailed and obviously studied specially."
Fan Wumian leaned against the bedside drinking iced black tea and said again:
"I'm just a little tipsy, not drunk. I don't care about the profits of the cinema chains themselves, but I think if I take the lead, I might be able to set off a wave of investment in a new generation of cinemas, which will be very helpful in quickly increasing the scale of the mainland film market."
"At that time, each side will contribute half. After the front cinema is built, the income can be used to build other cinemas. It should be enough to pay about 2 million yuan."
"I have been interested in film distribution for a long time. The market will be relatively large in the next few years, and movie tickets can also be sold through my Miaoyan movie platform. In the future, as long as I make a profit, I can directly package and list the company, and it may be worth tens of billions."
"."
After hearing this, Zhuang Muxi was busy applying a facial mask and said speechlessly:
"Hundreds of billions of RMB?"
"I thought you were not drunk, but you are talking nonsense now. The total box office of movies in the mainland in the first half of the year is only a few billion, which is not as high as the global box office of your "Time Trap"."
“Although I don’t know how to do business, how can such a market support a market value of tens of billions of RMB?”
".If it's not possible now, there may be a chance in the future."
Fan Wumian did not explain in detail and continued:
"Building large shopping malls is now popular in the mainland. Chain cinemas and these large shopping malls are a perfect match. I happen to know a real estate development company with potential. If the shops on the top floor of each shopping mall can be handed over to me to open cinemas, it will not be an exaggeration to support a market value of 10 to billion in years." The so-called developer is obviously referring to the wildly expanding "Wanda".
I have the impression that there was a period of time when Wanda Film's market value was particularly high, exceeding 100 billion yuan. Even after the stock price plummeted, it was still worth two or three hundred billion.
Therefore, Fan Wumian feels that distribution and screening are not very profitable, but if the purpose is to go public and raise money, it is still worth a try.
If the entire industry chain of film and television investment, production, distribution, screening and surrounding fields is integrated, plus Tudou.com, Miaoyan Film, Shanzeiwang Media and Shenhua Film Studio, there may be opportunities to make huge wealth of hundreds of billions of RMB.
We had previously considered handing Tudou over to Penguin Group, but if we follow the lead of Internet companies in Silicon Valley and try every means to create a monopoly and dominate the market, occupying 70% to 80% of the market share, Tudou would actually have great potential.
By simply bringing in Penguin Group to invest, it is possible to reasonably divert traffic from Penguin and kill off the competitor "Penguin Video" in advance.
If we can further deepen our cooperation with Hubei Radio and Television, we can also kill "Mangguo TV" in the cradle. As for other competitors, we can just spend money to acquire them.
In 10 or 15 years, Tudou's annual revenue may exceed 1500 billion yuan. Even a net profit of only 10% will make Fan Wumian so happy that he will be at a loss.
Many thoughts flashed through his mind, but he didn't waste any brain cells thinking about them.
Zhuang Muxi was more concerned about the investment in the construction of the Old Summer Palace. She kindly helped Fan Wumian take off his clothes, prepared some clothes for him to change into, and asked again:
"When I was in Yanjing, I went to the ruins of the Old Summer Palace with my classmates. The tour guide mentioned that a few years ago, the gambling king spent a lot of money to buy the pig head and donated it. It seems that it was stolen from the Old Summer Palace."
"Yes, it seems to cost only over 6 million Hong Kong dollars, which is about the same price. My set of gold coins for blessing peace and prosperity also came from the Old Summer Palace. I don't think it is necessary to buy back something that has been stolen at a high price, unless the value of the item can increase dramatically, in which case it is purely an investment."
I have already given her what I deserve by getting up early for morning exercise today.
The weather was still hot at the end of August. Fan Wumian took a shower and went back to bed, where he soon fell asleep.
the next day.
After waking up and thinking about the business of partnering in cinema chain, distribution and production, Fan Wumian still felt that he could do it.
"Time Trap", "A Quiet Place 2" and a number of other projects will soon bring him cash flow. He can squeeze out 1 million RMB in the initial stage with almost no pressure.
Pu Jiajing hasn't completely adjusted to the jet lag, but her mental state is much better than yesterday.
Around 9 o'clock in the morning.
She reported the news:
"Your first solo concert will be held at the Hung Hom Stadium. We plan to sell 12500 tickets. Ticket sales will start next week."
"Valentino has already started trial production of a batch of new products. The head of the design department wants to meet with you to select the products to be taken to the fashion week. The Milan Spring/Summer Fashion Week is about to begin."
"Also, Jane Zhang's second album lacks a title song. I want to ask if you have time to create one or two more. The company said that when she has more songs, she can also try to hold a concert, which should contribute a lot of profit to the company."
He explained several things in a row.
I just came back from a busy trip to the United States, and there are some long-pending tasks that need to be handled by Fan Wumian himself.
Asking Pu Jiajing to put down the documents, Fan Wumian said calmly:
"I'll deal with these later. The most important thing is to write a chapter of 'The Desolate Emperor' first. I've been filming and haven't updated for three weeks. Some readers have already started cursing me for being weak forever. I can't tolerate this. It's too vicious."
Pu Jiajing said silently:
"I really admire you. Even so, there are still people reading your book. You should have finished writing this book after their son goes to college."
Fan Wumian sighed and said:
"I really regret having buried so many holes. The plot progressed very slowly in the early stages. I will try to write 200,000 to 300,000 words a year and publish a physical book."
