Chapter 169 The copyright was obtained and the trolley case was obtained
The next day, Ming Pao:
After Jin Yong came back, he called Shen Baoxin and told him what had just happened.
After hearing this, Shen Baoxin analyzed and said, "Yang Wendong is betting on the future with his current money."
Jin Yong nodded and said, "Yes, he is betting on me. Future novels will continue to be popular, just like The Condor and the Condor.”
Shen Baoxin said: "This is not a gamble. Who in Hong Kong doesn't know your novel now? The probability of success of your next book is still very high, and its risk is very low."
Jin Yong smiled: "Don't be so confident, who can guarantee that you will always be popular!"
"Okay, we are not outsiders, why are we so humble?" Shen Baoxin said again: "Then do you want to sell these copyrights?"
Jin Yong replied: "The audio copyright of the novel I have written can naturally be sold to him, and only his radio station in Hong Kong will buy it. The biggest problem is the price.
But the future will be It’s hard to say, I’ve already had a lot of ideas for future novels in my mind. I think these books are no worse than The Condor, and if they are sold now, they are sold at a discount.”
Shen Baoxin nodded, and then analyzed: "For Yang Wendong, it is to exchange current money for high returns in the future.
For you, it is to exchange future earnings for current money. Is that clear?"
"Yes." Jin Yong nodded.
Shen Baoxin added: "Just looking at the amount, I estimate that Yang Wendong must have made a profit.
But from your perspective, what will you do with the money now that you have it? ”
Jin Yong frowned and said: "Of course we invest in Mingpao, this is our business."
Shen Baoxin said again: "Yes, so for you, it is about comparing two values.
One is the value of your future copyright, and the other is the value that this money can generate in the future for Mingpao if you get the money now.”
Jin Yong’s eyes flashed. Liang, said: "When you say this, my mind becomes clearer."
"Haha." Shen Baoxin said with a smile: "I am only analyzing the most basic logic, but whether this matter is cost-effective, you It’s up to you to decide whether to sell the copyright of your book.”
"Yes, I understand." Jin Yong nodded, and then said: "If it can be exchanged for the rapid development of Mingpao, then it is more meaningful to me.
In fact, when I write novels, It’s just to continue to develop Ming Pao. Otherwise, if we don’t start a business and other newspapers want to ask me to write, I may not agree.”
Shen Baoxin nodded and said, “In that case, we can consider selling the future. If the audio copyright can be exchanged for the funds needed now, it will allow Mingpao to develop rapidly. It is still worth it.
Anyway, Yang Wendong does not want a lifetime patent. "
Time is fast. It's March.
There was also news from Jin Yong that he was willing to sell part of the copyright, but said that ten copies were too many.
Yang Wendong then met with him again, chatting and eating, and finally ordered 5 books, totaling 35,000 Hong Kong dollars.
The unit price has increased a bit, but Yang Wendong has also gained the right to choose, which means that if Yang Wendong is not satisfied with a novel, he can exchange it for the next one.
In the end, Yang Wendong paid HK$55,000 to obtain the audio copyrights for Jin Yong's current 4 books and the next 5 books.
Each copy is licensed for ten years.
"It's a pleasure to cooperate." Yang Wendong said with a smile when he saw that the agreement was concluded.
Jin Yong also nodded and said: "It's a pleasure to cooperate, Yang Sheng. I hope you can polish these novels and let more people know the plots of these novels."
"Okay." Yang Wendong agreed. .
This writer has an advantage. After he finishes writing, he sells the copyright, and the buyer will increase the novel's fame in the process of commercialization.
Whether it is audio, TV series or movies.
But even if someone can write good-looking novels, they are worthy of these high profits.
......
On March 6, Yang Wendong came to the factory of Changxing Industrial:
However, he did not go directly to the office, but took a few people with him The second phase factory next door.
After walking around in a circle, looking at at least hundreds of people working enthusiastically in front of him, Yang Wendong asked: "When is it expected to be completed?"
Wei Zetao, who was supporting the equipment, replied: "Yang Sheng, according to the plan, the overall structure will be completed by the end of April, and the first workshop of the second phase will be completed ahead of schedule. The equipment from Changsheng will be advanced in this workshop; the follow-up will be based on time. , almost one workshop a week, and then the equipment of the eight workshops will be installed within 2 months."
Yang Wendong thought for a while and asked: "That means. , by June, the second phase will be in full production?"
Wei Zetao nodded and said: "Theoretically, this is true, but the production capacity will still have a climbing process, mainly due to the proficiency of the personnel. The problem will be solved in July.”
Yang Wendong asked again: “The production of sticky notes basically requires a lot of workers with academic qualifications. Such people are good now. Recruit? ”
Wei Zetao replied: "It was not easy to recruit in the early days. The total population near Tsim Sha Tsui was still too small. Later, I started to arrange dormitories here, which made it much more convenient. Many people we could not recruit in the early stage are now crowded. I also want to come in."
"Well, it seems that the housing issue is the most important thing." Yang Wendong smiled and then said: "Now that the factory is bigger, dormitories are also a must. Then try to pay attention to safety. ”
Small factories can provide accommodation, but large factories cannot. In the past, large enterprises in the mainland, such as steel plants and electronics factories, basically provided accommodation.
Because the factory is a point, workers can live nearby, but when the factory is too big, the number of habitable people nearby cannot meet the requirements of the factory. If there are no dormitories, it may not be possible to recruit Enough people have arrived.
Wei Zetao agreed and said: "Don't worry, Yang Sheng, I take safety the most seriously. Fire and high-power electrical appliances are prohibited in the entire dormitory;
The company arranges for employees to eat and boil water in order to avoid fires. "
"Okay. "Yang Wendong nodded.
Now that he has thousands of people living together, Yang Wendong also understands now why high-power electrical appliances were not allowed to be used in school dormitories in his previous life.
After viewing the second phase of the factory, Everyone returned to the first issue, and then a brief meeting was held to discuss many matters within the factory.
As the boss, Yang Wendong has gradually delegated power in this regard, but there are still things that need to be known. < br>
After the meeting, Yang Wendong came to the office floor of the R&D department, which was also the main purpose of his visit.
Hong Xuefei, the head of the R&D department, walked up and said with a smile: "Yang Sheng, the things have been made. Please go to the conference room to have a look."
"Well, okay. "Yang Wendong nodded.
Then several people followed Hong Xuefei to the conference room at the end of the corridor. More than a dozen suitcases of different colors had been erected, and their railings also stretched out of the boxes.
Yang Wendong stepped forward and pressed the lever with his hand. The lever did not move. Then he moved the button in the middle of the lever and pressed it down. The lever could be pressed down. Finally, he pressed to align with the box.
Hong Xuefei stepped forward and said: "Yang Sheng, these appearance and functions are designed according to your requirements. Now, they basically meet the requirements."
"Well, very good, the patents are all registered Is it done?" Yang Wendong took a look and found that the appearance and structure were indeed in accordance with his requirements.
Although there are many control methods to realize the up and down movement and jamming of the pull rod, the method that can stand out in a competitive environment like the previous life is definitely the most suitable for people's daily use.
Hong Xuefei said: "Everything has been registered. The Legal Department will send relevant information to your office in the afternoon."
"Well, okay." Yang Wendong nodded, and then pulled I looked at the suitcase and saw that it also had wheels underneath.
Hong Xuefei added: "Yang Sheng, the design of the trolley case has been completed, and the plastic material used is also high hardness and toughness.
After some subsequent mechanical property tests are completed, small-scale production can be organized "
"Is this test time short?" Yang Wendong asked.
Hong Xuefei said: "Yes, this will not last very long. It is different from sticky hooks and spin mops. There is glue on the sticky hooks. After the customer buys it, it may hang for several years. The spin mop will Constantly rotating at high speeds requires caution.
The trolley case is much simpler. Its main function is to bear force. As long as there are no problems with the force test, plus some tests under normal high and low temperatures, it will be enough. .”
"Okay." Yang Wendong nodded, then looked at Wei Zetao and asked: "Are the new sites and equipment at the supplier ready?"
Wei Zetao replied: "They are ready, Dehe Injection Molding Factory has already We have prepared equipment and sites, a total of 25 units, which is enough to satisfy the Hong Kong market in the initial stage;
As long as the follow-up feedback is good, we can immediately build a large-scale factory. ”< br>
"Yes, okay." Yang Wendong paused and said, "We must also be prepared in terms of channels. Suitcases can only be sent to some high-end places in the initial stage."
With In today's economic environment in Hong Kong, ordinary grocery stores are really not suitable for luggage. At least now, it is a high-value commodity, and those who can travel or do business are rich people.
Wei Zetao said with a smile: "I have already contacted Zhao Chengguang. He heard that we have a new product, but he is very interested. He should arrive in the afternoon."
"Okay, let him get there early Make preparations." Yang Wendong nodded, and then said: "Also, arrange for someone to go to the Hong Kong China Daily and ask them to find a time to advertise before the suitcases are ready to be shipped, so that Hong Kong citizens know that there is such a thing. Something.”
With its own media, this kind of advertising is very convenient, especially the positioning of Hong Kong China Daily is also mid-to-high-end, and has a high overlap with luggage customers.
Wei Zetao nodded and agreed: "Okay, I will do it right away."
