Chapter 822: Discuss business management with Xiaomei
Previously, the long-distance exchange of Feixun Group had occurred once in the Shanghai International Long-distance Bureau, which alarmed the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications, and also caused some negative effects internationally. In the end, Feixun Group spent money, and with the help of the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications, let the Huhai Municipal Telecommunications Bureau bear the black pot for them.
This kind of thing happened once, and Jiang Xinwei didn't want it to happen again, so he organized experts from many countries to develop an atomic clock at any cost.
When the officer left, Zheng Zitong walked in. The two began to discuss the production of automobiles.
In the evening, Jiang Xinwei received a call from his sister Jiang Xiaoqing.
The chick said ostentatiously on the phone: "Brother, guess how many orders we got at the Tokyo Consumer Electronics Show this time, and guess that there is a prize." ”
The smug look was evident from the voice.
Jiang Xinwei was very happy for his sister, and said very funny: "You didn't come back with zero eggs? A total of 100 units were sold, and it was nice to be able to open, and it was very good to be able to sell 100 units. ”
Jiang Xiaoqing said angrily: "Brother, don't you guess it? Don't look down on people so much, okay? A hundred, we can't even earn our plane tickets back, I'm embarrassed to tell you?"
Jiang Xinwei was "taken aback" and said: "What, won't it? It was the first time to participate in the exhibition, and it was a new product that had never been put on the market, and it was actually earned back the plane tickets of so many people at once." Isn't that sold tens of thousands? You're really a heroine among women. ”
Jiang Xiaoqing smiled happily: "Giggles, brother, you are so annoying! I'm an adult, and I'm not a three-year-old girl." Are you serious?"
Jiang Xinxu asked seriously: "You won't receive an order of more than 10 million US dollars, right?"
Jiang Xiaoqing said proudly: "Guess again, guess the big one!"
Jiang Xinwei was really surprised at this time, more than 10 million US dollars is nearly 100 million yuan. He was genuinely surprised and asked, "Is it possible that you have received an order of hundreds of millions of dollars?" ”
Jiang Xiaoqing said proudly: "Brother, let me tell you, we got an order of 320 million US dollars! 320 million." ”
Jiang Xinwei almost jumped up in surprise and asked, "You got an order of 320 million US dollars, all of which are MP3s?
Jiang Xiaoqing said: "So I called you." You find a way to help me. ”
Jiang Xinwei smiled bitterly: "Brother himself is happily troubled by this kind of thing." Feixun Group's mobile phones are now also full of orders and insufficient production capacity. …… ,Sister,Authorize it.,Authorized production all over the world.。 ”
Jiang Xiaoqing said a little unhappily: "But I don't want to let these profits be made by foreigners." ”
Jiang Xinxu said: "No way. If you don't authorize production, you can't scale up production tenfold, hundredfold. As long as there is a shortage of supply, they will cultivate competitors for themselves, and in order to reduce competitors, the only way to expand production capacity is to authorize others to produce. Either way, you can still make more money. ”
Jiang Xiaoqing said helplessly: "Okay." I immediately set up an intellectual property department to take care of external licensing and production coordination. ”
Jiang Xinxu reminded: "How much has the traffic of your Meile website increased?"
Jiang Xiaoqing said: "I don't know. That site is a money-losing ...... Hey, brother, are you saying that after our MP3s are sold, our website will start to make a profit?"
Jiang Xinwei said: "I don't know if it can make a profit right away, but the number of visits will definitely increase tenfold or hundredfold." If you think about it, as long as you buy an MP3, they have to download the song, and a lot of people will visit your website and download it from you. …… You should always pay attention to the number of IP visits every day, and don't crash the website because of too many visits. ”
Jiang Xiaoqing said: "No." Our server arrays in Japan, the U.S., and Italy are all nearly ready to be operational, with a capacity of three million simultaneous users. ”
Jiang Xinwei smiled: "Not bad." You think about it thoroughly, and my brother is very relieved. ”
Jiang Xiaoqing smiled and said, "Brother, this is what I learned from you." It is you who teach well as a master, and I naturally learn well as an apprentice. …… By the way, brother, do we take some incentives to attract more singers to sign with us? Can we get a guaranteed contract, that is, as long as we talk to us on the Merlot website, we will give him a minimum contract amount, such as 100,000 US dollars, 150,000 US dollars or something. I'm worried that someone will also set up a website like the Merlot website to compete with us for singers. Although this will increase the cost of doing business, it can also raise the barrier to entry and discourage many people. ”
I have to say that Jiang Xiaoqing learned a lot of methods from Jiang Xinwei, and he has to throw money at every turn, using this simple and crude method to suppress potential peers.
Jiang Xinwei thought for a while and said seriously: "I don't think it's necessary, because it is likely to lead to an exponential increase in the company's operating costs." You know, a country with a slightly larger person, they have tens of thousands of singers, and a large number of new singers appear every year, and the old singers can't die for a while. If you sign a slightly famous artist for $100,000, that's something that a billion dollars can't do. Moreover, have you thought about it, 100,000 dollars is a huge amount of money for ordinary people, but for famous singers, it is just a small amount of money. ”
Jiang Xiaoqing snorted and said, "You mean that the cost of breach of contract is too low for them, and although they sign a contract with us, they may renege on the contract at any time and don't care about paying compensation?"
Jiang Xinxu said: "Yes. The signing fee of 100,000 US dollars cannot form a constraint for slightly famous singers, and for singers who are not famous, we spend 100,000 US dollars to sign with them, and it is likely that we will never get back the investment, and it will definitely be a loss-making transaction. ”
Jiang Xiaoqing suggested: "Then what about the grading system? For big star singers, we will increase the signing fee, such as one million dollars, and for singers who have just debuted, we will reduce the signing fee, such as ten thousand dollars and fifty thousand dollars." How?"
Jiang Xinxu said: "It's not good. Rather than blindly grading ...... with signing money"
Jiang Xiaoqing interrupted him and asked, "How can you blindly grade?"
Jiang Xinwei smiled: "Of course it's blind." The number of songs downloaded by big star singers on the website is not necessarily very large, and the number of songs that are not famous may not be small. Many times, the number of downloaded songs is related to the quality of a certain song, and people love to listen to it, so they will download it, rather than asking which singer sang it first. Of course, there are people who like a certain singer and download songs regardless of the quality of the song, and they are fans of this singer, but there will not be many of them. …… Do you understand what I mean?"
