Chapter 1563: Hard to Say, Not Too Good
The lively dinner lasted for more than two hours. As the host, Jinshu's high-level executives stayed until the end to send away the last group of guests who needed to appear in person. , the waiter has removed the cups and plates and replaced them with tea.
It's not just small talk, it's a very formal topic.
Wu Shanlin started first: "Lao Han talked with me in the afternoon. Didn't the recent batch of film and television peripherals sell well? China Film hopes to release a batch of copyrights. There are imported films and domestic classics from the Mainland. Buy some projects that can pass the review from Hong Kong, and then promote them according to our distribution model."
Sitting at the same table, apart from the core members of the Jinshu Department, there are still leaders such as Hairun, Guangguang, Huayi, and Ren Jingxi from Huanzhu Film and Television.
When everyone heard what Wu Shanlin said, their expressions were somewhat strange.
What is it called, picking peaches?
You must know that although it is affiliated with various theaters under different theater chains, this sales chain actually exists independently. Moreover, even though it is still cooperating with China Film Group, Jinshu holds 90% of the company's registered name "China Film Jinshu Audio-Visual Chain Company" because Jinshu provided most of the funds. Take 10% aggressively.
Of course, it is undeniable that without the coordination resources of China Film Group, Jinshu would not have been able to win the channels of more than 100 theaters across the country, and it would probably only be spread in more than 30 theaters in its own home.
Thinking about it this way, everyone's mood will inevitably become more complicated.
My dear, it's really incomparable.
Ren Jingxi and Mr. Li of Rong Xinda beside him were talking in a low voice about a TV project. Hearing what Wu Shanlin said, he thought for a while and said, "Since China Film is going to make a big move, it won't just plan to release a batch of movies. Bar?"
Wu Shanlin said: "I just talked about my thoughts. What Lao Han said is that China Film can increase capital from the audio-visual chain to expand China Film's shareholding. In addition, it is to bring in more theaters. Also, our planning team , everyone knows that it is very good, and China Film also hopes to strengthen cooperation."
Everyone didn't know what to say for a while.
Hard to say.
Moreover, even if they are all on their own, it is better not to say some things, so they can only remain silent.
It was Ren Jingxi who said again: "Actually, this is also a good thing. Compared with the United States, even if the situation has been opened up a little bit, our domestic genuine audio-visual market is still pitifully small, and Jinshu's family alone will definitely not be able to support it." To build a long-term national market, a giant like China Film Group must participate. However, China Film Group can do this, so can we.”
What Jinshu lacks the most in the field of film and television is copyright!
After all, the background is too shallow.
Everyone heard what Ren Jingxi said, and they all understood roughly, but how to operate it, you can only look at Ren Jingxi.
Ren Jingxi said: "We are short of movie copyrights, but in recent years, we have accumulated a lot of high-quality TV drama copyrights, which can be used first."
Ren Jingxi just opened his mouth, and everyone reacted.
However, Mr. Wang of Guangguang quickly said: "The audio-visual channels of Tianlong Babu in the United States are indeed very impressive, but here, most of the public can't afford the price of genuine movie discs, let alone easily Dozens of episodes of TV series, what is the appropriate price?"
Ren Jingxi smiled and said: "Mr. Wang, you have overlooked one point. In the United States, the Blockbuster channel where Tianlong Babu is located is mainly a chain rental platform, and most of the revenue comes from leasing."
This time, everyone was stunned again.
Li Zong, the female founder of Rongxinda who was sitting next to Ren Jingxi, said: "Jingxi, what do you mean, we can also take care of the leasing business?"
"It's not just about taking into account," Ren Jingxi said, "Since there is Blockbuster in the United States, why can't we have it? Moreover, I think that compared to direct sales, the scale of the domestic leasing market should be larger."
Huayi only had his elder brother Wang Daode present today: "I know this. In some streets and alleys, there are a lot of small audio-visual rental shops of that kind, and the business is also very good."
Mr. Liu of Hairun shook his head: "That's the problem. The content of the pirated channel is too rich, and there is no review limit at all. You all know that there are all kinds of themes. If we open a genuine chain, first of all, this is fundamental. There is no way to compare, not to mention, in terms of price, the genuine version has no advantage."
Zheng Yi, the president of Jinshu Films, who is in charge of Jinshu’s film business, said: “It’s actually very simple, Lao Liu. It’s still the same as the current operation mode of audiovisual chains. For the time being, we only conduct business in core cities with strong consumption power. Town and village directly gave up. Moreover, if we can cooperate with China Film Group, we should not have less content resources.”
Mr. Xingmei Tan, who had been silent just now, once again raised a sharp question: "How about the issue of control, if China Film Group is allowed to operate it"
Mr. Qin shook his head as he spoke.
The efficiency of state-owned enterprises cannot be flattered by anyone.
Wu Shanlin said again: "This, I will fight for it," he said and looked at Ren Jingxi again: "Jingxi, you haven't finished talking just now, have you?"
Ren Jingxi nodded, and continued: "Actually, TV drama resources happen to be our advantage, the advantage of genuine editions, because although pirated edition resources are abundant, the small street shops Mr. Wang just mentioned are often small in scale. , definitely can’t support too much TV content, this is one of them. Furthermore, still talking about the content, I mean, since Jinshu can distribute our movies as an agent, Jinshu can also distribute other companies’ films as an agent .”
Zheng Yidao: "You mean, we also import films from Hong Kong?"
In fact, Jinshu has already been doing this matter, and, according to the current policy, this is not considered an introduction, but a cooperation.
Ren Jingxi smiled and said: "Thinking blind, we have no power overseas. After all, there are not many excellent projects in Hong Kong that can pass the review, but in the mainland, besides China Film, there are Changying, Emei, Xiaoxiang, and Shanghai. art studios, these are our potential partners.”
After Ren Jingxi finished speaking, everyone suddenly became enlightened.
really.
The major established film studios in China used to be stronger than each other, so they have accumulated a large number of high-quality content that is not outdated even in the present.
Furthermore, due to the decline of the domestic film industry and the current wave of restructuring, these large state-owned film studios that were able to maintain their strength in the past are having a hard time now. Can the factory not cooperate with private enterprises?
Everyone pondered for a while, Xingmei's Mr. Tan tapped the table suddenly, and eagerly said: "I thought of it as soon as Jing Xi said it, Shaolin Temple, whose work is this, we will definitely take it down."
Zheng Yidao: "Shaolin Temple is invested by Zhongyuan Film Company in Hong Kong. I was in contact with Hong Kong recently, and I happened to notice this film. However, I still need to check the copyright in the mainland. Perhaps, it is very likely that it is still in China Film Corporation. side."
Everyone was disappointed again.
If Shaolin Temple's memory of a generation can be captured and pushed to the surrounding channels, it will definitely become a good sign.
In any case, when Ren Jingxi said this, everyone's thinking became clear. Moreover, I thought that there was nothing to do with my own subsidiaries, but if the sales and rental chain of TV series as the key content can be implemented, everyone will definitely have another rich income channel in the future, so I look forward to it even more.
Wu Shanlin also said on the spot that he will make plans when he returns next time, and will discuss it with China Film Group next Monday.
However, if you want to do this, it is still a question of money first.
To plan a separate chain system, this time it is definitely not possible to be affiliated, but to open a store independently, storefronts, personnel, content procurement, management systems, etc. In short, a store does not have a million-level expenditure, and I am afraid it will not be able to afford it.
Then he talked about the four key projects that Jinshu is planning, and the films that each company is looking for.
The last thing about investment has basically been finalized.
China Film Group will still participate in all of them, but except for me and my motherland, China Film Group will account for 50% of the investment and will be responsible for the distribution. For the other three, China Film Group will only be responsible for 15% of the investment, and Jinshu will be responsible for the distribution At the same time, 30% of the investment will be assumed, and the rest will be distributed to each company, or contact external partners.
Ren Jingxi has already finalized his intentions, the goal is the Chinatown Detective, Huanzhu Film and Television plans to invest 20%,
According to the initial budget estimate of 80 million, it is 16 million.
However, because the script is still in the writing stage, the final budget is still uncertain. Ren Jingxi felt that even if he went abroad to shoot, it might not cost 80 million. After all, there are no special effects, and the plan is to focus on mainland actors. If he does not plan to invite any international big names, 60 million may be enough.
Of course, if necessary expenses, there will be no savings here.
After chatting like this until more than 11 o'clock, Ren Jingxi called his father who had been patiently waiting here to go home together.
The next day is January 9th.
Sunday.
In the morning, he received another call from Wu Shanlin, so Ren Jingxi went to Jinshu's headquarters to talk about his thoughts last night in detail.
Still sorry.
At present, private film distribution companies are still strictly restricted. For Huanzhu Film and Television, they can only participate indirectly to share some soup.
It took more than an hour to chat with Wu Shanlin and several Jinshu executives in detail. Since he came to Jinshu, Ren Jingxi inquired about the production progress of the lost martial arts. When I came to the company, I approached Director Xu directly, hoping that he would serve as a consultant for his martial arts reality show, a real consultant, and the other party's response was also very positive. He specially arranged a lunch and talked about many details.
After a busy day like this, I received a call in the evening and greeted my family, so I rushed to Mao'er Hutong. The call came from Mo Wuling, saying that Chen Qing had come to the capital to have dinner together tonight.
Those who don't want to come, but if they refuse Miss Chen, they will definitely be put on shoes.
Parked the car in the underground parking lot, greeted Mo Wuling who came to meet him, and the two girls came to the inner house together.
Chen Qing was talking to someone in the study next to the main room. Ren Jingxi and Mo Wuling could not help but come together to the living room on the other side of the main room. There was a certain little girl named Nuan Shu , the nickname is the same, and the English name is Olivia Chen Westeros.
Sweet little guy.
Especially the two girls who are gradually becoming old girls.
Especially if this is a man's child.
Especially the little girl has a pair of beautiful dark green eyes.
Rare.
Chen Qing on the other side could feel the eagerness of the two old girls from far away, so she directly raised her voice to remind: "No kissing, no hugging, and no touching."
This is what the doctor reminded.
Children have poor resistance, and the seemingly close behavior of adults may cause accidents.
Hearing Chen Qing's reminder, the two girls can only
Take a look.
stingy.
However, he still squatted beside the crib with great interest, using the rattle beside him to tease the little one who was exploring the world around him with his big eyes open, and discussed why the girl's eyes were green. Of course she is very beautiful, but if you remember correctly, someone has blue eyes, Chen Qing, well, I don't know, anyway, maybe it's a mutation.
Of course it's beautiful.
After reminding the two women, Chen Qing withdrew her gaze, looked at Neighbor Shen in front of her again, and said, "This is a rare opportunity. You can be in charge of an asset management company alone. The team size is about 30 people, and you are responsible for sorting out the problems in South Asia. A group of light industrial enterprises in several countries such as Indonesia, Malaysia, and the Philippines are mainly engaged in clothing, shoes, leather, textiles, etc. The list of assets of this batch is about 700 million US dollars."
When Neighbor Shen heard what Chen Qing said, he paused and hesitated: "Mr. Chen, you mean Indonesia?"
"Yes," Chen Qing nodded, of course she understood why she hesitated, and said, "The asset management company is headquartered in Singapore, but your task is to integrate this asset, cash out what should be cashed out, revitalize what should be revitalized, and expand Yes, just expand as much as possible, and it is really necessary to visit the front line frequently, so, in addition to the 30-person team, there will be an additional four-person bodyguard team here, our own security company."
Speaking of this, Chen Qing curled her lips and added: "A team of four, you can choose, those who have killed people, or those who have not killed anyone."
Shen Lin flinched subconsciously, then reacted again, hesitated a little, but said firmly: "I'm going to kill someone."
"Can."
Neighbor Shen asked: "Mr. Chen, can you carry a gun?"
"It depends on the situation," Chen Qing said, "Most countries over there prohibit guns by law, but it's easy to get guns because it's messy."
Shen Lin's eyes flickered again.
Chen Qing said: "You can directly get the management rights of 700 million US dollars of assets, and you have considerable authority, you know, on the one hand, your personal qualifications, Ph.D. in political economy, on the other hand, you should also understand .In short, this is your only chance, and it is also a trial. The contract is three years. After three years, the papers will be handed in. If you do well, you can go further and manage 7 billion, or even more. If you can’t do it well, huh, You belong to the type of temperament that the boss likes very much, and you can continue to come back and be a vase."
Neighbor Shen pondered for a while, and then brought up the question just now: "Sister Chen, I just chose, I mean, if you have killed someone, can you continue?"
"Of course." Chen Qing didn't hesitate at all, and smiled: "I just said that it's chaotic over there, with warlords, gangsters, and anti-government forces in some areas, so even if you manage Within the scope of assets, some factories have thorns, and they can also be handed over to them. Even if something happens, just let them run away, and you will not be implicated. You have to believe that you are now a westerosian, and you are a level. High westerosian, we certainly have the ability to protect our own people."
Neighbor Shen nodded: "Then I will do it."
"Smart choice," Chen Qing said, and handed a thick pile of documents to Neighbor Shen: "Since you agree, these are all you want to read, and then, you will fly to the United States in a few days, the follow-up matters, It's out of my control."
Neighbor Shen was surprised again, holding the stack of documents just received, still a little at a loss.
Although, the girl in front of me is really difficult to get along with, but she is out of her control, so, what's going on next?
Chen Qing smiled and went over: "Do you like working under me very much?"
Shen Lin froze for a moment, nodding and shaking his head.
Chen Qing didn't make things difficult for her, nor did she explain, she waved her hand: "That's it."
Shen Lin heaved a sigh of relief, got up, said goodbye politely, and left the study with a stack of materials.
After Neighbor Shen left, Chen Qing picked up a folder from the side coffee table and opened it. There were some personnel information on it.
I have to talk to a few more people tomorrow, it's all similar things.
Regarding the assets acquired by the Westeros system in Asia through stock swaps in the past year, her boss recently asked her to recommend some people to build a group of asset management teams.
Originally, Shen Lin planned to stay by his side for his own use.
However, since it was her own boss's confession, and she attached great importance to this matter, of course Chen Qing would not hide it.
As for the recommended group of people, they will no longer be responsible to her in the future, and Chen Qing has nothing against her. After all, after having a little girl who was still somewhat disliked until now, they are still a family after all. Chen Qing now considers issues from the perspective of the Westeros system.
And her problem is that in the past, she was a little too lenient.
My boss obviously doesn't mind having strong women around her. The problem is that Chen Qing's too strict management has brought about a serious bug. If you don’t make adjustments and continue, you don’t need to spend too much time on China’s side, just stare at her, and you can describe all aspects of the Westeros system in China.
This is not good.
Therefore, after her boss came over and talked to her quietly last time, Chen Qing was actively making adjustments.
For example, in the future, she intends to stop contacting any overseas capital with a Westeros background as much as possible, and let the relevant teams develop by themselves. Even if this will cause each layout to act on its own and cannot better integrate and utilize resources, it is wise to do so in the long run.
Chen Qing even planned to create a state where she gradually fell out of favor, or was accepted by her own boss.
Give back the illusion of power, take the initiative to give up attention to some industries, and try to make yourself less conspicuous.
It's not easy for her character to do that.
However, it is impossible to think about the future of one's own children. Unless, in the future, it goes further, it will last forever, intertwined, deeply rooted, and one hair will affect the whole body, or even, even some, then there will be no need to have so many scruples.
Anyway, not now.
