Planning for Sugar Man Film and Television.
Boss Cai always thought that Zhang Yuan just wanted to get some benefits and fame from Sugar Man and get some good roles.
But from the beginning, Zhang Yuan's plan was to bite off a piece of meat from the candy man.
He has been waiting patiently, taking his time to figure it out, not in a hurry at all.
Just like Hua Yi’s weak moment waiting for Wang Jinhua to leave...
"Have you finished your phone call?"
As soon as he put down his phone, Li Xiaoran poked his head out of the bathroom.
"Didn't I ask you to wash first?"
"When you come, I can rub your back." Dabai rubbed his hands.
"And..." As she said that, she stretched out a long, white thigh from the door frame, then lowered her body and lightly ran her index finger over the surface of the thigh.
"You can also rub my back."
We use this kind of thing to test our cadres all the time!
Zhang Yuan angrily began to take off his clothes.
After rinsing, as Dabai said, she helped Zhang Yuan start rubbing his back.
It’s just that she didn’t rub it with her hands...
After taking a shower, the two of them soaked in the hot bathtub together.
It is often said that the relationship between men and women is full of lust.
But love and desire often have to be discussed separately.
A man and a woman never get tired of each other, either because of love or lust.
Zhang Yuan has been getting along with Li Xiaoran for more than half a month, but he has no intention of getting tired of it.
Because of this person's figure and experience, his "desire" is basically maximized.
Of course, it's not without emotion.
But for Zhang Yuan, lust is about 20% to 80%, and desire has an absolute advantage.
But for Li Xiaoran, this ratio is a little different.
In the incident with Boss Sun, although Zhang Yuan only came up with an idea, he did not intervene directly.
But to her, the story of the two is more like a knight and a princess.
Zhang Yuan helped her escape from the evil dragon, Boss Sun, and was injured as a result.
In return, it makes sense for the princess to devote herself to taking care of the knight.
Moreover, the knight's sword was long and sharp, and his marksmanship was also very good, which won her heart.
Therefore, her erotic ratio was only 28 at first, but as time went by, it reached 46, or even 50-50.
However, there is no such thing as a banquet that never ends...
"Today is my last night in Xiaotangshan."
While holding each other in the hot water, Zhang Yuan squinted his eyes and whispered.
"Oh...don't you still have to go to Anji Zhuhai to film for a few days?" Li Xiaoran opened his eyes, turned his head on his shoulder, and replied.
"I'll go over there and stay with you, okay?"
Zhang Yuan hesitated for a few seconds: "Have you not been working recently?"
"Work to make money, make money to spend."
“Why do we have to work so hard every day when we have money to spend?”
Li Xiaoran's mental state is twenty years ahead of the original version.
"Okay, I'll call you when I get to Anji."
"Yeah!" Dabai smiled broadly: "How about I go home with you tomorrow."
"If you want to save money, you have to go to Anji separately."
Zhang Yuan:......
If I take this home, Cheng Hao will tear me alive!
I had to kick the barrel of the gun to break.
"No, I'm going to Xiangjiang soon. I can't stay at home for a few days."
"Then I'll accompany you to Xiangjiang. You can go shopping there." Dabai decided to stick to him.
"I'm only going for a few days. My schedule is very tight and I don't have time to accompany you."
“Besides, I’m only going there for a few days with my companions. It’s not good to be seen by others.”
"You also know how dangerous the paparazzi in Xiangjiang are..."
"Oh..." Li Xiaoran nodded with some disappointment.
The experience at night was still wonderful, but after the other party was so tired that she fell asleep, Zhang Yuan looked at her white and tender back, thoughtfully.
"It's not easy to do..."
When it comes to ability, appearance, and popularity, Li Xiaoran is the type who is good at everything, but also falls short of the best in everything.
He is almost stuck in the middle between Zeng Li and Yuan Quan.
She has acted in many hit dramas, and has also had drama king-level works in later generations. However, due to her personality, she does not have the ambition like Si Dan Shuang Bing, and she has never become a top-tier actress.
At best, it's a first line.
Such an actress can certainly gain momentum and make a lot of money by bringing her to the company.
But looking at her attitude towards me...it would be easy to cause trouble if she stays around.
Zhang Yuan thought, Dabai has a pretty good personality and is a nice person.
So I have to find an opportunity to speak clearly to her and then think about it.
……
There was nothing to say all night, and it was dawn the next day.
Early in the morning, the two of them packed their luggage and went back to their respective homes.
After Zhang Yuan put down his luggage in the small courtyard, he went to the large courtyard in Fuyuan Hutong, which covers an area of more than 1,200 square meters.
Under the supervision of Zhao Decai, the hard decoration of the yard has been almost completed.
This part alone cost Zhang Yuan almost 3 million, and he was able to buy two ordinary houses with four bedrooms and two living rooms in Wangjing.
The smell is spreading now, and when summer is over, we can move things inside.
"How about it, it's okay!" Fatty Zhao patted his belly very proudly.
"Not bad."
Although it covers an area of 1,200 square meters, the construction area is only more than 300 square meters. However, because it is two floors, the practical area reaches 600 to 700 square meters.
“There are both Chinese and Western kitchens, enough for a dozen chefs to work together.”
“They are all installed according to hotel kitchen standards.”
"There are also two small guest rooms and one large guest room."
"Don't worry, even if you work as an office or private kitchen to entertain distinguished guests, it will be no problem. You will definitely not lose your place."
The red beams and pillars and brown carvings were specially decorated by Zhao Decai according to the "repair the old as before" routine.
It is indeed atmospheric and simple, low-key and luxurious.
After all, he is one of his own, and he does things beautifully.
However, Zhang Yuan walked around and found that the upper and lower spaces were well-equipped, and the front and rear gardens were even wider, but it lacked the feeling of home.
"It seems that the bigger the house, the better..."
He felt that this place was more like a combination of a hotel and a club, without much warmth.
"When this place is completely finished and we can move in, I will move here."
"You can help me redecorate the small courtyard in Pipiao Hutong."
"Ah, it's already here, why don't you sell it?" Zhao Decai was very surprised.
"Go on and live there. I'll keep it as a private residence for my own use only."
“It’s more convenient to entertain friends here for accommodation and meals.”
"Oh, that's okay." Zhao Decai said heartily, Zhang Yuan was becoming more and more like a big boss.
Big shots do value privacy, and their real residences are rarely used for entertaining.
"Also, I got some money back recently. Do you have any good houses?"
"Oh, it's okay." Fatty Zhao sighed, my brother has become rich.
"Bright Sword" became a hit, and more than 20 TV stations, large and small, bought the broadcast rights. His 30% share alone earned him more than 10 million.
This is for this year, and royalties will be paid every year in the future.
"Wulin Gaiden" was also completed after the new year.
To make way for the Spring Festival Gala, the last few episodes were suspended for a day on CCTV.
On this day of suspension, CCTV received a bunch of complaint letters and phone calls.
Compared with the Spring Festival Gala, which is getting worse year by year, the audience is obviously more interested in "Wulin Gaiden".
Some fans even said on the forum that CCTV stopped broadcasting "Wulin Gaiden" for one day because it was afraid that the finale of the film would take away the popularity and ratings of the Spring Festival Gala.
This is definitely nonsense.
But it also reflects the popularity of the show from the side.
In addition to letters of complaint, CCTV also received a large number of letters of wish, and viewers said they did not see enough.
But the broadcast schedule of CCTV’s TV series is as hot as Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945. There is no time for you to rebroadcast it.
However, the audience responded enthusiastically, so after the broadcast on CCTV-8, it was immediately arranged to be broadcast again in March on Didu Channel 3, a subsidiary of China Education Television.
In less than two months, there were two high-end TV stations broadcasting the show in the Imperial City of Light. Seeing how popular it was, other channels naturally followed the show like "Bright Sword".
Although the price of a single episode of the sitcom is low, Zhang Yuan's shareholding ratio in this drama is higher, reaching 50%.
So I also earned more than 10 million.
These two TV series have brought him nearly 25 million in revenue. There is also a small episode at the same time.
After "Bright Sword" became popular, online platforms immediately came to the door. Hairun was more cautious and sold the online broadcast rights for five years.
But in 2006, the price of online broadcast rights was very low, so low that it was unimaginable!
In 2012, due to the popularity of The Legend of Zhen Huan the previous year, the price of TV series online broadcast rights this year fully doubled compared to 2011.
And from 2006 to 2011, how many times did the price of online TV series rights increase?
An average of 300 times!
Not 30 times, but 300 times!
Because many online platforms have been successfully launched in the past 10 years, and radio and television have introduced copyright management policies for online platforms, the price of online broadcast copyrights has skyrocketed.
In the past five or six years, it has gone from a few thousand yuan per episode to hundreds of thousands per episode!
"Bright Sword", the national drama king, sold more than 200,000 online broadcast rights in five years.
Zhang Yuan only accounted for more than 30% of the shares, so he had no choice but to let Hairun "sell it cheaply" since he couldn't get in to talk.
But soon, Hao Yaning, the producer of "Wulin Gaiden", also called him.
It was said that a video website called Ku6.com wanted to buy the webcast copyright of "Wulin Gaiden".
Zhang Yuan calculated with his fingers that Ku6.com had not yet opened for business, and the website would not be online until the middle of the year.
Oh, they want to find a popular TV series to build the name of the platform in the early stages of launch.
So Mao got on board "Wulin Gaiden" which had not yet sold the web broadcast rights.
The reason why Hao Yaning called him was because the other party offered a "sky-high price" of one million!
Compared with the two hundred thousand in "Bright Sword", it is indeed a sky-high price.
But the contract period is ten years!
He accounts for 50% of this film, so if Hao Yaning wants to sell it, he must discuss it with him in advance.
ten years?
Just want to buy the webcast rights for 16 years for one million?
Then I’ve lost a lot of money!
Of course Zhang Yuan disagreed.
Old Hao tried his best to persuade him, saying that one million was already a lot. If he missed this village, he would not have this store.
In those days, everyone was short-sighted, and webcasting rights were just a bonus for most production companies.
After much discussion, Zhang Yuan finally had an idea.
"Otherwise, I will give you one million, and you will sell me all the online broadcast rights, and I will distribute them."
Hao Yaning thought about it and realized that the original one million was divided among several investors.
Now that I get it directly, wouldn’t I make more money?
This business is worth it!
In this way, he only spent one million to acquire all the online copyrights of "Wulin Gaiden".
Zhang Yuan found Ku6.com again, but only signed a five-year contract.
So the other party also lowered the price and only gave 550,000.
He readily agreed.
After Hao Yaning found out about this, he laughed behind his back that he was a fool.
It could have been a profit of hundreds of thousands, but in his hands, the business ended up with a net loss of hundreds of thousands. This young man was not very smart.
Zhang Yuan didn't bother to pay attention to him.
When the five-year copyright expires, and 11 years later when he sells it again at a sky-high price, he will know who is stupid.
"Lotus Lantern" will also be broadcast in the next few days.
Chang Chang is busy following the crew around to participate in activities.
After the film is finished, I will be able to make a lot of money again.
Plus the overseas copyright fees for "Crazy Stone" sold while in Berlin.
The first-year revenue contract of 40 million yuan between him and Hua Yi has actually been reached.
As long as "Baolian Lantern" returns the money, he can easily shock the two little young people of the Wang family.
As a result, one of the two iron chains that Hua Yi tied around his neck was mostly loosened.
What we have to deal with now is the Xiang family chain.
Zhang Yuan already has a response strategy and will be able to implement it soon.
Except for these, which are within the scope of the gambling agreement and belong to the film and television company's income.
Zhang Yuan also asked Shu Chang to follow the financial team to run several of his remaining related companies.
Deyuanshe already has two branches, and the third one is currently being renovated.
The two small theaters have a total of 500 seats, with an average attendance of 70% to 80%, with two performances a day.
Therefore, last year, the income from small theaters and commercial performances reached an astonishing over 10 million!
Deyuanshe is completely popular!
Moreover, the operating costs of the small theater are actually very low. After deducting taxes and costs from the revenue of tens and hundreds of thousands, the net profit is more than six million.
Zhang Yuan also received a dividend of more than 3 million yuan.
The catering company is also very prosperous, and the team members have grown to more than 40 years old.
After paying dividends to Zhao Jin and Cao Jianjun, and giving red envelopes to everyone, Zhang Yuan also made a profit of about two million.
This money is neither too much nor too little.
Because the lunch box business can easily reach bottlenecks. After all, the ones they have access to are mainly small and medium-sized film crews.
The top production crew has too many connections watching, and now Zhang Yuan can't get involved.
For example, "A City of Gold", when this film was at its most popular, there were thousands of extras in one day!
Think about how much money you have to spend just to eat.
But Zhang Weiping himself made his fortune by engaging in airline catering, so how could he allow others to interfere.
The same goes for Feng Xiaogang, and there are also related households in Huayi who are eyeing this piece of fat.
So Zhang Yuan thought that the catering company would either have to rely on itself to build up connections, or it would have to transform and add other businesses. Otherwise, performance growth would have to rely on the film and television industry to continue to expand its plate, thereby taking advantage of the company's success.
Finally, the finance department also sent the financial report of the drama club "Happy You Tiao".
After Zhang Yuan invested millions to find celebrities to watch the show and made the team popular, the drama club is also developing well.
Although not as good as Deyuanshe, it is still growing steadily.
And it already has many loyal fans.
There were a total of 200 performances last year, and the average attendance was less than 70%.
Income also reached nearly 4 million.
Zhang Yuan of this team holds 70% of the shares.
However, he did not drain the dividends. Instead, after settling the settlement with the two shareholders, he used 20% of the proceeds from his 70% shares to pay dividends to employees, including actors, screenwriters, and directors.
Doing so can enhance employee motivation.
Secondly, because he rarely goes to the drama club, through this method, he can establish prestige in the hearts of the employees, lest the two remaining shareholders see the business getting better and better, become rebellious and instigate the actors to leave.
As long as you give them enough money, who will leave?
And he also plans that in a few years, when the profits are better and the actors are more famous, he will have to take out part of the shares as options and distribute them to core creators like Shen Teng, so as to firmly control the company's basics. plate.
So a while ago, after Shu Chang calculated all night, he called him with his account book dumbfounded.
He currently has more than 30 million working capital in his account.
Even if the bank loan is repaid, there is still more than 20 million in funds.
This does not include Zhang Yuan's own salary, advertising endorsements, and business income.
If the income of the brokerage company is included.
Although the company has a small number of employees, there are only three permanent employees: Wang Baoqiang, Yao Cheng and Shu Chang.
But the advantage is that there are few people but they are all elites, and they have also brought in millions of profits.
Therefore, the funds he can use now are probably less than 40 million.
That's why he wanted to add some real estate.
"In addition to residential buildings, do you have access to office buildings?" Zhang Yuan asked Fatty Zhao again.
"Yes, there are, but office buildings are expensive!" Fatty Zhao was shocked. The price of office buildings in the imperial capital is very astonishing.
"It's either that kind of building, or a small building in an industrial park. If it's in a better location, the area doesn't need to be too big."
Zhang Yuan thought, in the future there will be more and more people in the company, so we can’t work from home, right?
"I have a project under construction near the Wangjing residence I sold you before. It's just like what you said, it's an entrepreneurial park."
“They range from three-story short buildings to seven-story small tall buildings.”
"It's hard to say the opening price. The price increase there is huge, but I estimate it won't be more than 10,000. If you pass me, you can get some discounts."
"The certified area of a three-story building is about 800 square meters, while a seven-story small high-rise building is much larger. Each floor must be 500 square meters, and the total area must be 4,000 square meters."
Hiss... Zhang Yuan suddenly felt that he was still poor.
It is impossible for him to spend all his money to buy off-the-plan properties, otherwise the capital chain will be broken, and he will die in an ugly way.
"Don't worry, the property is still under construction. It will take more than a year to hand over the house. Maybe by then, you won't be short of money." Fatty Zhao laughed.
Zhang Yuan shrugged: "Let me lend you some good words."
Since he couldn't afford an office building, he asked Fatty Zhao to help him find several new properties in excellent locations.
I spent about 10 million to buy five ordinary houses in the third ring road. House prices have risen this year.
This lot increased from 12,300 to 15,600.
The prelude to China's housing price boom has already begun to take shape in the most prosperous capital.
There are still 20 to 30 million in funds in hand, which are reserves he has set aside for the next half year, and they cannot be touched for the time being.
Cheng Hao felt very distressed knowing that he had put these years in the bank.
"If you make a large certificate of deposit, the interest will be nearly one million a year..."
This small amount of money was enough for Zhang Yuan to enter the bank's main account room and let the young lady half-crouch to introduce him to financial management projects.
But Zhang Yuan is very clear-headed, and now is not the time to enjoy it.
In today's era, if you fail to keep up, you may lose hundreds of millions or even billions of money-making opportunities in the future.
He only stayed at home for a day or two when the Eagle Emperor called him.
"Baby Project" has reached the final stage of filming, and it's time to play a small cameo role... (End of this chapter)
