Chapter 311 Doubts
“Weilai, Ideal, Xiaopeng, Weimar, Jihu, Aian, Nezha, Hengchi...”
Lu Liang counted in detail, in the past two years There are 28 new energy brands established, and I don’t know how many more are waiting to see.
It is expected that there will be more than 40 companies in the coming year, but according to the industry’s Nine-One Law, only about 8 of the 40 companies will be left in the end.
Just like the early mobile phone brands, such as Gionee, Tianyu, Coolpad, Blue Devils, etc., they were either swallowed up or went bankrupt.
The car circle is even more cruel, because BBA's basic market is still very stable, and BYD and Tesla will occupy at least two more places.
So, out of the 40 domestic brands, there may only be five or six left, which is a vivid interpretation of natural selection.
“If a new car is released, it must be an instant success to avoid short-term iterations and being dragged into the melee.”
Lu Liang whispered to himself: “Be slow, don’t be anxious.”
17 models of NIO SE8 have just opened the pre-order channel, and Li Bing is already preparing 18 models, which are expected to be released this fall.
No car owner wants to buy an outdated product. The release of the new es8 is bound to backstab the owners of older models.
Two generations are updated a year, and the new model is better. Owners of older models may feel that they have been taken advantage of.
Li Bing also knows this, but the technology upgrades too fast. If they don’t follow up, they will have no market competitiveness.
Ideal also faced this dilemma, but Li Xiang chose to postpone iterations to avoid backstabbing old car owners.
After all, it has been more than half a month since the release of Weilai es8. Due to the high price, the number of reservations is only 500 units.
Looking back at Ideal ONE, the total orders have reached 1,500 units, and 100 units have been delivered one after another. The market reputation is quite good.
With more than 300,000 yuan, you can buy a million-dollar luxury car, a refrigerator, a color TV, and a large sofa that I once owned, which is deeply loved by some e-commerce bosses.
E-commerce is a new industry, and online store owners are also young. Unlike the older generation who only think of BBA as a luxury car, they are very receptive to new brands and new things.
At this time, Zhuo Yifan knocked on the door and came in: "Mr. Lu, Mr. Wu and Mr. Wu Jing, who have a wonderful dream, are already here."
"Yes, I understand."< br>
Lu Liang paused slightly and followed Zhuo Yifan to the reception room next door.
The total investment in "Wolf Warrior 2" is 230 million, with Tianxing Investment accounting for 52%. When Wu Jing came back from Africa a few years ago, she wanted to come and visit the funder's father.
But at that time, Lu Liang was busy preparing public funds, and went to Tokyo for vacation during the Spring Festival holiday. When he came back, he was busy finding a home for the 300 billion yuan.
Wu Tianzheng and Wu Jing came here several times, but they couldn't make an appointment every time. Until recently, Lu Liang was finally free.
They planned to let Lu Liang watch the finished film and talk about the release date and distribution.
"Mr. Wu, Director Wu, I'm sorry to keep you waiting for so long."
Seeing Lu Liang enter the door, they both stood up. Wu Tianzheng smiled and said: "We haven't waited long, we just Not long ago."
"Hello, Mr. Lu."
Wu Jing had a smile on his face. He had met many investors over the years, but few as big as Lu Liangliang.
With an investment of 120 million, if he hadn't submitted monthly expenditure details to the Tianxing Finance Department and received signed feedback, he would have thought that Lu Liang had forgotten about it.
"Let's go to the conference room. There is no screen projection here."
Lu Liang is very interested in the finished film and wants to see what a movie with a box office of more than 5 billion will look like.
The whole film is 123 minutes long. Except for the rich second-generation role that Xiao Wang was originally invited to play but was rejected, the performance is a bit awkward. The acting skills of all the members are basically online. The big scenes are also very real, with broken limbs and arms flying around. .
Especially when he fired cannons and roared with tears in his eyes, and when he walked through the war zone holding the national flag in his hand, he felt heartily and thoroughly expressed his depression.
Two hours later, the curtains and lights in the conference room were reopened. Lu Liang clapped his hands and applauded, and said with a smile: "It's very good, very exciting."
Wu Jing was delighted to receive Lu Liang's approval, and her heart suddenly fell to the ground. Wu Tianzheng took the opportunity to say: "Mr. Lu, after discussing with Wanda, we decided to spend 50 million for publicity first."
According to The initial arrangement of 210 million includes the early stage publicity and distribution expenses of the film. The production cost is about 180 million, and 30 million is squeezed out for publicity and distribution.
But because Lu Liang joined and readily spent 120 million, Wu Jing was no longer restrained during the filming process.
Directly reduce the 230 million yuan until only 8 million yuan is left, and there is still a funding gap of 42 million yuan.
If the investment ratio is 52%, Lu Liang should take out another 21.84 million.
"Okay, when is it going to be released?" Lu Liang said without thinking.
The final box office of The Richest Man was fixed at 2.756 billion, temporarily ranking first in the year.
Tianxing Investment accounts for only 15%, investing 22.5 million yuan and receiving 118 million yuan.
This fund is about to expire, and Wanda will almost have to spend the money, which will be used for the promotion of Wolf Warrior 2.
Wu Jing hurriedly said: "Mr. Lu, we plan to release it during the summer season in late July."
"Yes, it just happened to be on the eve of Army Day."
Lu Liang was distracted for a moment. He suddenly thought of Su Wanyu. The eight-month exchange career seemed to be over.
He has been busy with various things recently and has not contacted her for a long time. The last time seemed to be during the Spring Festival.
It was just a few words to say Happy Spring Festival. After all, he was taking Li Manli to Tokyo at that time.
The news spread a lot on the Internet. "Mr. Lu, is there any problem?" Wu Tianzheng asked carefully.
"No problem, I just remembered something else."
Lu Liang shook his head and called Tang Caidi to be responsible for signing the subsequent contract.
After that, I returned to the office.
Wu Jing smiled bitterly: "Mr. Lu, it's really refreshing."
Except for the two hours of watching the movie, they spent less than ten minutes communicating with Lu Liang.
Determining the publicity fee of 50 million is as easy as drinking water.
It would be great if investors were as forthcoming as Lu Liang.
"Mr. Lu is just an example."
Wu Tianzheng took over the conversation with a smile. Others spent hundreds of millions, or even tens of millions, on constant meetings and discussions.
But it only took Lu Liang one month to spend all the 300 billion public funds raised.
He did not tolerate those who refused to accept the redemption, and directly gave up his 6 billion share to the Sioux City Human Resources and Social Security Bureau, highlighting his domineering attitude.
Next door, Lu Liang’s office.
He washed his face, tidied up his appearance, and made a video call to Su Wanyu.
The call was not connected and hung up directly. Su Wanyu sent a question mark: "In class."
"How are you doing recently? Are you going well with your studies?"
Lu Liang looked thoughtful and looked at the clock on the wall.
Because he often trades in the international market, there are three wall clocks on the wall of his office, corresponding to Beijing time, New York time, and London time.
Three o'clock in the afternoon Beijing time,
Eight o'clock in the morning London time.
The University of Edinburgh is in the UK and corresponds to London time. The student union there is as early as 8 a.m.?
"Life is pretty smooth, but studies are a bit difficult. If you don't work hard, it will be difficult to keep up with the rhythm here."
Su Wanyu said that the European and American happy education spread in China does exist, and Coverage area up to 95%.
But there are only 5% of the elite education left, and the scores are so high. Since coming here, she has been back to her senior year in high school.
“By the way, I almost forgot to tell you, I also received a study abroad fund of US$50,000 per semester~”
Su Wanyu suspected that Lu Liang had tampered with it, because she asked the previous seniors and found that there was no such thing in previous years, but only this year.
And the intensity of student aid is advanced, with a minimum of US$20,000 per student per semester and a maximum of US$50,000.
In the past, only domestic students could enjoy the benefits, but now overseas students can also enjoy them.
Lu Liang smiled at the corner of his mouth: "Who is the big guy who funded this? Aren't you afraid that you won't come back?"
"How is it possible? The UK has decided to leave the EU, and the streets have been noisy every day recently. ”
The referendum ended last year, the Queen signed the contract, and the process is going on recently, making Brexit a fait accompli.
Lu Liang asked again: "What about you, when will you come back?"
"I guess it will have to wait until the end of the year. I haven't completed my credits, and I almost failed one subject."
Su Wanyu suddenly said: "No more chatting. The professor seems to have seen me playing with my mobile phone."
"We will chat next time."
Lu Liang frowned and called the director of the study abroad office of Tongji University.
I got Su Wanyu’s report card for each subject last month. Basically, all of them were A’s and only had a few B’s.
"Mr. Lu, there is one more thing. Student Su has applied for special care from the University of Edinburgh and applied for a visa extension through our school." The director said.
“What do you mean?” Lu Liang was confused.
"Last year, there was an overseas female student named Liu Jiao in our school who also applied for these two items. Later, she learned that she was preparing to give birth." The director did not dare to say it clearly, so he gave an example.
If it's Lu Liang's, that's best.
If not, things are a bit big.
After all, donating 2 million US dollars every year to establish an overseas student aid fund can be said to be Xiangzhuang's sword dance with the intention of Peigong.
Lu Liang was silent for a long time and said in a deep voice: "I know about Director Sun, and I hope the school will try not to disclose it to the outside world."
"I understand," Director Sun assured repeatedly.
There are two chapters left before 12 o'clock.
