Chapter 733: Profits of Over 100 Million at Every Turn (Second Vote)

In the next few days, Xia Yu inspected the situation of several companies.

Especially for Global Satellite TV, at this time, "Super Girl" has already passed the audition and entered the finals of each major region.

Over the past two months, there have been strong players or both beauty and strength in each competition area who have stood out, and huge popularity has gradually converged on these people.

In addition, in the past two months, Global Satellite TV and Jiuding Newspaper Company have joined forces to promote it in a fancy way, and the influence of "Super Girl" has become more and more influential.

At present, the number of users of Global TV in Asia has reached 1.22 million, and the annual fee of 200 Hong Kong dollars per household alone collects 244 million Hong Kong dollars.

And this number of users also means that satellite signal receivers are also sold so much.

The retail price of each satellite signal receiver is 400 Hong Kong dollars, and Jiuding Electric's business alone has reached a turnover of 488 million Hong Kong dollars.

The cost of each satellite signal receiver is about 100 Hong Kong dollars, the ex-factory price of Tiangong Electric Appliance Manufacturing Company is 250 Hong Kong dollars, and the gross profit space is 150 Hong Kong dollars.

In addition, Jiuding Electrical Appliance Retail Company also has a gross profit space of 150 Hong Kong dollars.

As a result, Tiangong Electrical Appliance Manufacturing Company and Jiuding Electrical Appliance Retail Company each obtained a gross profit of HK$183 million in the satellite signal receiver business.

Monopoly of the unique business is really profitable, generally in the field of household appliances, it is very good to have a gross profit margin of 30%, which is like Xia Yu now, every company has a gross profit margin of 150%, exposure will definitely make many people crazy, vying to enter this industry.

After some guidance on Global Satellite TV, Xia Yu went to learn about the business of the film industry.

With sufficient financial support, Jiang Zhiqiang stirred up trouble in Southeast Asia and acquired movie theaters on a large scale.

It also spent 72 million Hong Kong dollars to acquire 78 movie theaters in Southeast Asian countries, bringing the number of theaters of Universal Cinemas in Southeast Asia to 129 in one fell swoop, and narrowing the gap with Shaw Brothers Cinemas in Southeast Asia to five theaters.

And this year, Galaxy Pictures has released a lot of high-quality films, and Universal Cinemas relies on the advantages of multiplex theaters and is extremely sensitive to the market, creating many popular movies, making many independent cinemas or small cinemas join Universal Cinemas one after another.

As a result, the distribution network of Universal Cinemas directly operated and franchised theaters in Southeast Asia has reached 205.

Under Jiang Zhiqiang's money offensive, the cinema pattern in Southeast Asia has changed from a situation in which Cathay Cinemas and Shaw Brothers Cinemas compete for hegemony to a three-legged pattern of Cathay Cinemas, Shaw Cinemas and Universal Cinemas.

Cathay Cinemas distributes films from Golden Harvest, some small and medium-sized film companies in Hong Kong, Taiwan Province, Southeast Asia and Hollywood.

Universal Cinemas distributes films from Galaxy Films, most of the small and medium-sized film companies in Hong Kong, Taiwan Province and Hollywood.

In addition to the films produced by Shaw Brothers Film Company, Shaw Brothers Cinemas will also distribute films from Taiwan Province and Hollywood.

It has been proved in practice that the advantages of multiplexes are indeed great, and the market has forced Shaw Brothers Cinemas and Cathay Cinemas to keep up with Universal Cinemas.

However, for the box office sharing model, Cathay Cinemas and Shaw Brothers Cinemas, which are accustomed to being overlords buying out and distributing, are reluctant to change, because there are great internal differences, and there are no signs of change for the time being, which disappoints many filmmakers in Xiangjiang.

In this regard, Jiang Zhiqiang was secretly happy, he knew that Cathay Cinemas and Shaw Brothers Cinemas were accustomed to overseas buyouts and relied on their size advantages to make overlord money, of course, they were reluctant to share part of the money that could have been in their pockets, Jiang Zhiqiang wished that these two would not change, so that he would have more opportunities to continue to expand his advantages.

Time will tell who is right!

On the afternoon of November 27, Xia Yu took the curious Li Qian to see the filming site of "The Peerless Twins" invested by Galaxy Film Company.

This movie was produced by Shaw Brothers Film Company in the previous life, but in this life, Gu Long's copyright was copied by Xia Yu, and Shaw Brothers Film Company naturally had no chance.

The director of this film is Chu Yuan, a well-known director in Xiangjiang, originally under the Cathay Pacific Film Company, but unfortunately in 1971, Xiangjiang Cathay Pacific Co., Ltd. ended the production department and sold Yonghua Studios to Golden Harvest, and Chu Yuan was poached by Shaw Brothers Film Company.

And this year, under the persuasion of Wu Siyuan of Galaxy Film Company who came to the door again and again, knowing his benefits and moving with emotion, Chu Yuan jumped to Galaxy Film Company, and the brokerage business was signed with Global Brokerage Company.

"How's the company doing?"

When Li Qian looked curiously at the actor Diao Weiya, Xia Yu asked Wu Siyuan, who was accompanying him.

Wu Siyuan thought for a while and said: "It's very good, because it wants to supplement the source of Universal Cinemas, so far, the company has invested in ten films and eight films in joint ventures. ”

In December this year, the company's big move was the "Peerless Double Pride" in front of him. ”

In addition, it also invested in Zhucheng Production Co., Ltd.'s "Pointing Soldiers", the screenwriting department and the marketing department have always believed that the film will perform well at the box office, and the film has entered the post-editing and dubbing stage, and the publicity has been launched. ”

Xia Yu nodded with a smile and said, "Not bad." ”

"Now that martial arts films are very popular, since you have acquired so many martial arts copyrights, don't miss the opportunity and boldly shoot. ”

Wu Siyuan immediately nodded and responded: "Okay!"

Xia Yu continued to look at the shooting scene.

After hesitating for a while, Wu Siyuan plucked up the courage and said, "Chairman, I have an idea I want to report to you. ”

Xia Yu raised his eyebrows and said, "Well, let's say it." ”

Wu Siyuan immediately said: "Chairman, now that the film market in Xiangjiang has begun to pick up, many new film companies have been established this year, and our company has produced more films, so we have found a drawback, that is, the shortage of talents in the film and television industry." ”

"This led to the fact that in order to shoot smoothly, we had to use some worse people, and this was because of the assistance of global brokerage, otherwise the impact would be greater. ”

"Although Global TV has training courses, it is mainly for training performances, and there is relatively little training for behind-the-scenes talents, which will have a great impact on the future of the film and television industry in the long run. ”

"So my idea is, can we set up a few training courses to train people from all walks of life in-house. ”

Xia Yu frowned slightly, thought about it and said, "Your idea is very good. ”

"However, it is a bit childish, and there is no school in Xiangjiang that specializes in cultivating talents in the film and television industry, so establish an art school. ”

"Just a few days ago, Ma Tengdong and Huang Xizhao also mentioned to me about talents, so let's do it together, not only to make some contributions to the art world in Hong Kong, but also to build a solid foundation for the company. ”

"In a few days, you will come to Ma Tengdong and Huang Xizhao to discuss a specific charter together. ”

Wu Siming nodded happily and said, "Okay, thank you, chairman!"

Xia Yu bowed slightly, just planning to continue to accompany Li Qian to go shopping.

At this moment, an anxious voice came from behind him: "Where is the chairman, I have an urgent matter to report." ”

Wu Siyuan immediately looked over, and it turned out to be Chen Shufen, the general manager of Global Brokerage Company, only to see that she was anxious at this time, panting and running towards this side.

Wu Siyuan immediately said to Xia Yu: "The chairman is Manager Chen of the brokerage company. ”

Xia Yu also saw it, and instructed Wu Siyuan: "Go and invite her over." “
