Rebirth of the Strongest Tycoon

Needless to say, Universal TV Station has produced a large number of classic programs directed by Xia Yu, which has formed an all-round suppression of TVB.

The only thing that the TVB can still struggle with is the ace program "Happy Tonight" every Friday, but it has also lost a lot of viewership shares under the collective offensive of Universal TV.

For Universal TV, Xia Yu has a temporary request, that is, continue to dig the potential of each program, expand and precipitate its influence, strive to improve the quality of the program, improve the reputation and threshold, so that the plagiarism of TVB will not be effective.

And Universal Television also has a subsidiary, Universal Brokerage, which has a good momentum of development. Of course, this is due to the advantages of the group.

Chen Shufen has trained a group of qualified brokers, and has arranged a brokerage team for the star artists who have potential or are already popular in the brokerage company. The bodyguards are from Xia Yu's Aegis Security.

Jiuding Newspaper Company is a monopoly giant in the media field. In particular, it also owns an entertainment newspaper "Entertainment Daily", so Universal Brokerage Company has no shortage of publicity resources, and its star artists can often appear on TV and in newspapers. In magazines, such as "Fashion Yiren" and "Mr. Esquire", handsome men and beautiful women such as Zhang Peirong, Zhou Runfa, Mi Xue, Yang Panpan always appear on them, and they wear fashion every time, which has a great influence on popularity. promote.

Therefore, these star artists are soft on commercial advertisements. Of course, it is not without the fact that many advertisers give face to Jiuding Newspaper Company. After all, it is better to choose artists from Jiuding Newspaper Company's brother company if they want to choose star endorsements.

In general, the global brokerage company operates in a standardized way, and with the help of the group's resources, it has quickly hatched into the No. 1 brokerage company in Xiangjiang, and is far ahead of the Shaw Brothers Brokerage Company and Golden Harvest Economic Company established following the trend.

After the commercial income of the artists of Universal Brokerage Company came out, I don't know how many artists are jealous, and many people want to enter. For this reason, Chen Shufen should not be too easy to dig and sign newcomers.

After Huang Xizhao is Jiang Zhiqiang. It is the first time that he formally reports the work of the cinema company on the board of directors of the group.

"The Universal Cinema Company has not yet officially announced its establishment, but 20 theaters have been rebuilt and 19 have been put into use. Only the largest Taiping Theater still needs about ten days to complete the construction period."

"After the renovation, 20 theaters have 16,850 seats, and the hall, central hall, and small hall add up to a total of 189 screens."

"At present, the operating income of the theater chain has reached 9.65 million Hong Kong dollars, and the film peripheral revenue has been 740,000 Hong Kong dollars. After deducting copying costs and labor costs, the net profit is 6.56 million Hong Kong dollars."

"The main reason for such a low income is that the theater chain is still only in trial operation, and the Golden Harvest Film Company and Shaw Brothers Film Company are suppressing us. The films of these two film companies will not be screened by our company, and they secretly threaten to block other film companies. cooperate with us."

"Although there are film sources from Galaxy Films, it is still insufficient, and there are many screens that are idle irregularly."

In the end, Jiang Zhiqiang felt embarrassed by such a low revenue, so he focused on explaining the reason.

Everyone in the audience expressed their understanding, and they were even surprised by the net profit margin of Universal Cinema Company as high as 60%. Xia Yu also kept smiling and did not show a dissatisfied look, which made Jiang Zhiqiang feel a little at ease.

In the end, it was Wu Siyuan, who had the smallest qualifications and company management ability.

"Dear Chairman and colleagues, since the establishment of Galaxy Film Company, a total of eight films have been invested. The company has produced three films and released eleven films. Thanks to the support of Universal Cinema, none of them has appeared. The loss, plus the profit of Waifu, the company's revenue was 18.68 million Hong Kong dollars, and the net profit was 10.25 million Hong Kong dollars."

"...My report is over!"

Wu Siyuan finished briefly after talking about key data and company situation.

Xia Yu smiled and swept across everyone's faces, then nodded in satisfaction,

Said: "Just now everyone has introduced the situation of their respective companies, and it can be seen that they all have a clear understanding of the company's advantages and disadvantages, which is very good!"

"I will first give my opinion on the situation of each company. If it involves my own business, I will focus on memorizing it, and then go back and implement it."

"It started with Wenhan just now, this time it's the other way around."

"Siyuan, the development of Galaxy Film Company is good. With the support of Universal Cinema, it can achieve better results."

"Continue to cooperate with the Global Brokerage Company and make the best use of the role of the brokerage firm. As long as the script is refined, the production is guaranteed, and the Global Cinema chain and the entire group are supported, it should not be possible to lose money."

"In addition, if you want to deeply cultivate the field of film distribution, the overseas market may be more troublesome, but in Hong Kong, Galaxy Film Company occupies a huge advantage. Universal Cinemas does not operate the distribution field, and Galaxy Company is responsible for such a big advantage. You have to take good care of it. grasp."

"Yes!"

Wu Siyuan smiled and answered loudly, while looking at Jiang Zhiqiang who was sitting next to him.

Jiang Zhiqiang smiled kindly at Wu Siyuan, and didn't mind that the distribution field was taken away by Galaxy Films.

In fact, for the film distribution, either a special distribution company is responsible for it, or it is developed and operated by a film company, and the theater chain is generally not involved.

The theater chain can generally eat more than half of a movie’s box office share, and the distributor is generally between 5% and 10%.

Although mosquitoes are meat no matter how small they are, Universal Cinemas can completely set up a subsidiary company dedicated to distribution, but since the chairman said so, he will do it.

Then, Xia Yu looked at Jiang Zhiqiang and ordered.

"Xeon, the Universal Cinema can be officially announced to the public. When the Taiping Cinema is completed, you will hold a press conference."

"Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest block us, then use the box-office sharing model to break their block, and you need Wen Han and Xizhao to cooperate with this promotion. In short, the bigger the momentum, the better! Don't hide it any more!"

"clear!"

Jiang Zhiqiang replied with a smile on his face, already expecting Shaw Brothers and Jiahe to be dumbfounded.

Isn't it using influence and strength to contain it? Then just smash the plate and win over all the filmmakers except Jiahe and Shaw Brothers. He doesn't believe that Jiahe and Shaw Brothers can carry the entire industry!

Xia Yu thought about it for a while, and then warned Jiang Zhiqiang: "Xiqiang, you can buy the four theaters of the Lei family. It can not only strengthen your own strength, but also weaken the strength of the Jiahe theater chain. I allow you to pay a premium. within 50%."

"Also, after the Universal Cinema chain opens, you secretly acquire theaters in Southeast Asia with only one goal, and use your money to create a theater chain comparable to Shaw's Cinema!"

Hearing this, Jiang Zhiqiang was completely excited, his face became flushed, and he responded loudly: "Yes, the task is guaranteed to be completed!"

And Wu Siyuan followed suit, because the stronger the Universal Cinema chain, the greater the benefit to him and Galaxy Films.

The foundation of Shaw's cinema chain is in Southeast Asia. The Shao family operates more than 100 cinemas in Southeast Asia, and the total number of franchisees exceeds 200.

If it is implemented according to the instructions of Chairman Xia Yu, the Universal Cinema chain will also become a theater chain with more than 100 theaters. With such a theater chain backed, if the films made by Galaxy Film Company can still make a loss, his name will be reversed. Come and write.

And backed by such a theater chain, the film agency distribution business of Galaxy Film Company will also quickly become a trump card!
