Chapter 476 Thank you boss
Chapter 476 Thank you, Boss~
As your net worth increases, your worries also increase.
Before you know it, your business has started to grow bigger, and you have to consider some issues in advance. You need to start looking ahead and acting cautiously.
In the past, Fan Wumian's business was going smoothly. His strength was average, and other competitors were not necessarily that strong either.
As they cross the threshold to join the "super rich club", they begin to turn their attention to the international market, which means they are standing in an arena with fewer people but stronger opponents.
Compared with the gangsters in the major multinational companies, Fan Wumian inexplicably felt like a little white rabbit.
Because he rose to power by taking shortcuts, his methods were obviously far inferior to those of the cunning foxes, the sharks hiding underwater, and the jackals who practiced fighting skills while hungry since childhood.
They had talked about not being able to snatch a living from American media and film and television groups before they went to sleep. Fan Wumian was still thinking about this in his head as he felt the turbulence and vibration of the plane.
Knowing that there is a fertile land ahead that has no owner yet, and that planting trees there will produce large, sweet fruits, this "little white rabbit" can only watch helplessly. It is not a pleasant feeling.
However, those American media groups and film and television entertainment giants may seem to be just big bears armed to the teeth, or giant snakes that enjoy strangling their prey, but in fact, behind them stand the abyss crocodiles of Wall Street, and they are not entities that can be easily provoked.
Once you expand your business to a certain scale in the international market, you will find that unless you have certain irreplaceable qualities, the law of the jungle you face is much more cruel than that in the mainland.
As for how to capture the new blue ocean of global video websites, he has temporarily thought of two feasible ideas.
The first is to try to bypass the United States, develop in other international markets, and wait for the opportunity.
The second is to use existing resources and wait until there is some spare money to bring in Paramount and Disney to work together.
The disadvantage of the former is that it is impossible to leverage the United States' prestige in the international market to open up markets in other countries and regions as quickly as possible, resulting in wasted money in the development stage.
The disadvantage of the latter is that it is easy to be usurped by others, and it also requires giving up a large amount of equity, just like the cooperation between Mythology Film Studios and Paramount.
Paramount Pictures only contributed a little money, and all the hard work in the preparation and shooting stages was done by Mythology Film Studios, which in return gave them the opportunity to get a share of the North American market, which was far less glorious than rumored by the outside world.
Video websites belong to an emerging field, but they will directly affect the interests of traditional TV stations and film and television companies. Compared with losing hundreds of billions of dollars in profits, the cost of shooting Fan Wumian a few times may only be a few thousand dollars.
Anyone can do the math for such a simple thing, and his worries are not without reason.
I have nothing to do, just thinking about it before going to bed.
We cannot spare too much cash for the moment, and the level of development of communication technology is not up to the requirements. It will not be too late to consider it carefully next year or the year after.
I fell into a deep sleep and slept for more than 7 hours.
Fan Wumian woke up and found his right leg numb. Then he noticed that Yang Mi's long white legs were resting on his legs.
Looking sideways, Yang Mi's sleeping posture was quite indecent, her hair was messy, and her abdominal abs were exposed. It was obvious that she exercised regularly and managed her body very well.
Too many peach blossom debts can easily turn into peach blossom disasters. Fan Wumian has always had the opportunity to provoke her, Liu Shishi and others, but he never acts rashly.
From some perspectives, although he is not a good man, he is not a scumbag with no bottom line.
Move Yang Mi's big white legs away.
After getting up and washing up, Fan Wumian found the captain and asked a few questions. He learned that they were already in Italy and would land in more than ten minutes.
He returned to his seat and fastened his seat belt. While flipping through a magazine, he saw a new product from the well-known luxury watch brand Richard Miller. Fan Wumian was not so fond of mechanical watches, mainly because he could hear the constant ticking sound inside, which made him irritable.
The flight attendant quickly woke everyone up and reminded them that the plane was about to land.
Check into the Four Seasons Hotel Milan.
It was not yet 3 a.m. local time. Yang Mi took the elevator upstairs and suggested:
"Everyone must have gotten enough sleep, right? How about we get some food from the hotel and continue playing mahjong? We can go back to the room to clean up and meet up in half an hour or an hour."
Zhuang Muxi and Huang Shengyi didn't say anything, but looked at Fan Wumian at the same time.
He said to Yang Mi:
"Take a rest first. It will be dawn soon. I have to go to my Valentino company's headquarters for a meeting in the morning. I will bring you a few bags as souvenirs."
"Wow~~Thank you, boss!" Yang Mi had just finished speaking when Huang Shengyi silently said:
"That bag with 66 grams of gold is very beautiful. Miss Zuo looks very elegant when she carries it."
".A total of 1666 pieces are limited to sale worldwide, but the production capacity has not yet caught up. I don't know if there is any stock in the warehouse. If I come across it, I will bring it back."
Fan Wumian didn't care about it.
The only expensive thing about the bag is the 66 grams of gold. The market price of gold is only about 100 yuan per gram. Even Yang Mi, the least famous of the three, earned more than one million yuan last year.
Some time ago, Zuo Ziyan was carrying a new model bag, and the related news went viral on the Internet for three or four days, which was equivalent to warming up for Valentino in advance.
In just one store in Gangcheng, hundreds of customers registered for appointments, hoping to buy the same new bag, which prompted Fan Wumian to quietly increase the production quantity from 666 pieces to 1666 pieces.
The hardware on the bag is made by Chow Tai Fook Jewellery Company, which uses some anti-counterfeiting techniques to prevent other OEM factories from secretly making the same model, resulting in the appearance of counterfeit goods as soon as the new product is launched.
The flight took nearly 12 hours.
After Fan Wumian entered the guest room, he lay on the bed and asked Pu Jiajing to help him massage his back.
at this time.
Pu Jiajing pointed at her neck which had just become stiff and said speechlessly:
"You have individual seats to lie down and sleep, but I can only sit on the sofa, squeezed together with Ms. Zhuang and Ms. Yang's agent. My neck hurts so much that I can't turn my head. Do you have the heart to let me help you massage it?"
Fan Wumian said in a lazy voice:
"How can you bear it? You can't ask me to massage your shoulders for you, right? Just bear with it for now. When we go to the company during the day, I'll let you pick out a high-end custom-made dress."
".It's a deal, you could have just said no earlier, but I usually follow you, so I don't have the chance to wear such expensive clothes."
Pu Jiajing sat on the edge of the bed, pounding her chest with her little fists.
She went on to say:
"Boss, you spent $70 to hire that Victoria's Secret supermodel to walk in a show. Isn't that too expensive?"
"You can't convert it into RMB or HKD. Adriana Lima is one of Victoria's Secret's most famous supermodels. If we hype a few news stories about her, the money would be well spent."
Fan Wumian closed his eyes and enjoyed it, and added:
"As a top model, she can earn millions of dollars every year. If I hadn't made a name for myself in Hollywood and wanted to appear in my movies, Adriana Lima might not come to support my brand. During the fashion week every year, many companies invite her, but these supermodels usually only take one or two catwalks. If they take more than that, they are not worth much."
Pu Jiajing sighed:
"They say we should value inner beauty, but in the end, everyone still likes beautiful women. They make millions of dollars a year just by walking on stage, but it's a pity that my legs are not that long."
".Typical survivor bias. There are probably millions of young models in the world, but how many of them are as successful as her? You only see others eating meat, but not others getting beaten. The modeling industry is also a big melting pot, so chaotic that you can't imagine."
"It's still about men and women."
Pu Jiajing finished speaking and then said:
"I feel that among the women around you, Ying Er is the most like a supermodel, with a body so perfect that it makes people drool."
"Oh, I forgot. Gangcheng Mandou Model Company makes money from me, so I should borrow some of its resources. If Ying Er has another model identity, it seems that she can become famous faster."
After thinking for less than two seconds, Fan Wumian denied it himself and said:
"Forget it. Mandou Model Agency is limited in size. Ying Er won't be able to make a name for herself if she goes there. It would be better to register with a top European model agency."
Pu Jiajing asked further:
"What about Victoria's Secret? Are they reluctant to let her show up in public in her underwear?"
Fan Wumian sneered:
"No, I remember hearing someone say that there's an old jerk among the Victoria's Secret executives who likes to harass the models under her. Wouldn't it be a waste of both money and money to send her there?"
