Chapter 605: You Can Consider Going to the United States to Develop
Ye Jinsheng knows that the United States is the most developed country in the world's entertainment industry, and being popular in the United States means that the whole world will also be popular, Michael Jackson's space step has made countless people around the world obsessed; Audrey Hepburn's smile has made men all over the world crazy, and American stars are world stars.
For example, the most famous actor is Guo Rong, who has the title of "elder brother", he is a well-deserved emperor superstar among the more than 6 million people on Hong Kong Island, and he enjoys fame even in the entire Southeast Asian region, but few Americans know him, only the little dragon brother with "stunts" is the first star in the East.
In the eyes of Americans, the entertainment industry on Hong Kong Island can only be regarded as a village-level entertainment industry with "rural" characteristics, which is not worth mentioning at all, let alone Hong Kong Island, even island countries, or they don't care much about Asians, and think that Asians are a group of rigid workaholics, and they don't understand what entertainment is.
Of course, Ye Jinsheng knew that the entertainment industry in the United States was more developed, but he never thought of developing there.
It is because Ye Jinsheng has the dream of being an entertainment tycoon, he wants to become the "originator" of the Chinese entertainment industry, to bring vitality to this ancient country that has been dead for countless years, Hong Kong Island is only the first step, and the one billion people in the mainland are his ultimate goal, even if the people in the mainland do not have enough economic level to consume.
But entering the United States, Ye Jinsheng never thought about it, not because he didn't want to, but he didn't dare to think about it.
Ye Jinsheng knows very well which of those long-established celebrities is not world-famous? Audrey Hepburn, Marlon Brando, Brooke Shields, Fay Vinee, and the talented black guy Michael Jackson united with all Hollywood singers to donate money to Africa last year, and the song "e Are The orld" raised $50 million.
In front of these star-studded superstars, Ye Jinsheng felt that his achievements were really insignificant, coupled with the fact that Americans are full of arrogance towards foreigners, especially Asians, they have deep prejudices, so many years, that is, Brother Xiaolong has relied on the "mysterious" oriental kung fu to let them let go of their prejudices.
Ye Jinsheng never thought about it, until Liu Lang mentioned it.
"Can I do it? Okay? Or can't I?"
Ye Jinsheng had two voices in his head, one was the ambition in his heart, and the other was reason.
Ye Wang told him: Go and conquer Hollywood, let the Americans obediently surrender to your feet, and reason told him that you can mix with Hong Kong Island, but Hollywood is not something he can mix, so stay on Hong Kong Island obediently!
"Liu Lang, I'......... Let me think about it!"
Going to Hollywood means giving up the fledgling career on Hong Kong Island, starting all over again, and the future is uncertain, which is too difficult to answer.
"Okay, Brother Ye, if you go to Hollywood, I can help you, of course, it doesn't matter if you're on Hong Kong Island, it's a big deal to put down some face, but don't get too close to them, these people will be finished sooner or later!"
Liu Lang will not force the other party, of course, he also hopes that Ye Jinsheng will develop in Hollywood, others think that Hollywood is unattainable, but in his eyes, the American entertainment industry is really nothing great, if all the songs in his mind are taken out, there is no problem in winning seven or eight "Grammy" awards, well, or winning a few Oscars.
However, if Ye Jinsheng wants to develop in the United States, then the shares of Jingsheng Culture Company will also change.
This company now has 10% of Liu Lang's shares, and after two years of development on Hong Kong Island, Jingsheng Culture is also worth nearly 100 million Hong Kong dollars, and his 10% shares are less than 10 million Hong Kong dollars, which is more than 1 million US dollars.
This is because the Hong Kong Island market is too small, with a total population of five or six million, and even Liu Lang's hometown Fucheng has more than 1.5 million people.
If Jingsheng Culture goes to the United States to develop, the market size will be different, you must know that Michael Jackson released a few years ago called "Thriller" 's album records have sold as many as 10 million copies worldwide so far, creating hundreds of millions of dollars in value wealth, this number is probably more than the wealth created by the entire Hong Kong Island entertainment industry in a year, and the songs and movies in Liu Lang's mind can create far more wealth than this number, even if Ye Jinsheng is his good friend, it is impossible to give all these to Jingsheng Culture! At that time, Jingsheng Culture can only become a subsidiary of Shengtang Culture, and its status is the same as that of industrial light and magic.
Of course, if Ye Jinsheng doesn't go to the United States, Liu Lang will also set up his own entertainment company this year, he just lacks manpower, after all, no matter how powerful Lin Guodong is, it is impossible to manage several aspects of business at the same time, Ye Jinsheng is actually the best candidate, but it depends on whether he fully trusts himself.
Ye Jinsheng went to the side to think about the future, Shao Ming and Lu Xiaoguang began to "report" work, in the past six months, the sales of Transformers' comic books have grown rapidly, needless to say in the United States, with the broadcast of cartoons has produced a huge sensation, selling nearly 300,000 copies.
Hong Kong Island also continues to sell well, and the sales volume has reached 300,000 copies in half a year, which is about the same as that of the United States, but Hong Kong Island has reached this scale is already considered the limit, unlike the American market, which has just begun, and the price in the American market will be much higher, and the profit margin is not comparable to Hong Kong Island.
"Yes, Brother Lu, Brother Shao, I have seen your efforts in the past six months, the profit of our Shengtang Company's comic business has reached 2.6 million US dollars in half a year, of which the comic business is 1.2 million, and Hong Kong Island has also contributed 450,000 US dollars, which is the result of the efforts of the Hong Kong Island team, so I decided to take out 10% of the 450,000 US dollars as a reward for your Hong Kong Island team, I hope everyone will continue to work hard this year!"
On Hong Kong Island, in addition to Lu Xiaoguang and Shao Ming, there are five young people, they are all natives of Hong Kong Island, four of them are majoring in painting, and the other is majoring in finance.
Hearing Liu Lang say that he wanted to reward everyone with 45,000 US dollars, the two of them grinned happily, their salaries were 2,500 Hong Kong dollars per month, which was above the average level on Hong Kong Island, and the remaining five people were 2,000 Hong Kong dollars per month, reaching the average level of Hong Kong Island, of course, this is pure income, and they don't need to spend on food and accommodation, so Shengtang's treatment is very good, better than the middle-level cadres of ordinary large companies, but the reward of 45,000 US dollars still scared the two of them, even if it is divided into seven people, each person has 6,400 US dollars, which is US dollarsThe exchange rate between the Hong Kong dollar and the US dollar is 7.8 to 1, and 6,400 US dollars is 53,000 Hong Kong dollars, which is equivalent to two years' total income.
"Thank you, Mr. Liu, don't worry, we will definitely listen to you and make the company stronger and stronger!"
The two didn't say a word, and immediately expressed their determination.
"Do you have any difficulties on Hong Kong Island?"
Liu Lang then asked, as the boss of the company, it is one thing to let employees work hard with peace of mind, but also to solve problems that employees can't solve.
