Chapter 209 Activities and Annual Earnings
In November 1983, the life of the Ranfeng Group was not easy, first there were external worries about the blockade of the Taiwan authorities, and then there were internal troubles caused by Wu Yusen's defection, and the whole group looked precarious, and the situation was very bad.
However, after the time reached December, the Ranfeng Group first punished the defective Wu Yusen, forcing the other party to leave Hong Kong and Taiwan to avoid trouble.
After that, Ranfeng Group shot one after another, Tsui Hark's joining, the big sale of movies, the opening of new companies, and all kinds of good news continued one after another, bringing a warm breeze to the group that fell into a cold winter some time ago.
Ranfeng Group gradually got rid of the shadow of being blocked by the Taiwan authorities, and its operation and business began to get on the right track again, but Jiang Ran had to put his mind on the somewhat stagnant and chaotic crew of "True Colors of Heroes 2" after Wu Yusen left.
In fact, before John Woo left, the movie was almost filmed, but because of John Woo's departure, the crew fell into chaos for a period of time, and after Jiang Ran took over, he reshot some shots, so that the movie was not really completed until mid-December.
After the film was completed, Jiang Ran began to let go of the post-editing and other specific work to the producer and assistant director, while he himself only controlled the overall direction, began to take more energy out, and slowly returned to the affairs of the Ranfeng Group and the company.
After all, it is now the end of the year, and the group has just experienced a storm, although the company's divestiture and reorganization are basically completed, many things still need time and great efforts to improve.
On this day, Jiang Ran first went to the editing room to look at the post-production of "True Colors of Heroes 2", and after coming out of the editing room, he found several major group executives such as Le Zhiren and Chen Fang.
During this time, I was busy with movie things, and I paid less attention to the company. In the bright office, Jiang Ran shook his head, and greeted Le Zhiren and the others with a helpless smile.
"Hehe! No way! Only Mr. Jiang can shake the scene and catch the mess left by John Woo. Gui Zecheng said with a smile.
"Yes, Mr. Jiang can work hard!" Chen Fang also responded.
Le Zhiren also echoed and laughed on the side, and the atmosphere in the office was very relaxed. Jiang Ran didn't want to spoil this atmosphere, and after chatting with a few more people, he talked to the main topic.
"Now that we have reached the end of the year, our group has made great progress this year, but it has also encountered a lot of difficulties recently. However, with the joint efforts of everyone, all the difficulties have finally been overcome without danger. β
Jiang Ran said this, with a gentle smile on his face, looked at the few people in front of him, and then said: "So, I wonder if we can organize a group-wide celebration at the end of this year, and everyone will be lively and lively together." That is, to celebrate the success of 83 years, to welcome the New Year of 84 years, and to wash away the bad luck of the recent period. β
Jiang Ran's words made several people stunned, but this is not a big dealβat least in the eyes of Le Zhiren and the others, and what Jiang Ran said makes sense, it's time to go to bad luck.
"What Mr. Jiang said makes sense, how to operate it specifically, do you have any instructions?" Le Zhiren nodded in agreement, and then asked.
His proposal was agreed by several people, Jiang Ran was naturally comfortable in his heart, and when he saw Le Zhiren asking, he naturally spoke with great interest.
"I think the event can be divided into three parts. Part of it is a stage performance, which requires our employees to prepare the show themselves, and of course, in order to improve the watchability of the show, it is also necessary to invite some singing and dancing movie stars.
"Again, the event is carried out at the end of the year, and the distribution of the year-end bonus is naturally within the topic, and some outstanding employees who have made great contributions to the company's operation this year can be interspersed with additional rewards in the middle of the program on stage to receive the year-end bonus. β
"In the end, our company has grown beyond just giving back to consumers. We can also give out New Year's prizes to ordinary employees through some lucky draws or garden activities. β
"In this way, on the one hand, we can strengthen the communication between the employees of our group company, enhance the cohesion of the group, and show the style of our group to the outside world. On the other hand, this is also a year-end summary meeting of our group, a New Year group worship activity. β
Le Zhiren and the others obviously didn't expect Jiang Ran's interest to be so high, and he said so much. was slightly stunned, and immediately spoke in unison.
"That's good, Mr. Jiang!"
"Mr. Jiang, after I go down, I will immediately follow your proposal and make a specific plan, and I will definitely do a good job in this activity. β
The matter of organizing the year-end celebration was decided. Maybe Jiang Ran said that he was happy about what happened just now, and he was in a good mood at this time, and when he talked about other things, he was also smiling.
"Director Chen, our group's business situation this year is quite good, how much cash can the group come up with now?"
Chen Fang glanced at Jiang Ran, opened his mouth and said, "Although the financial statements of the following companies have not yet been reported, the income and expenditure have been generally obtained. β
Chen Fang said and glanced at Jiang Ran again, and then concluded happily: "We had a balance of more than 30 million yuan in our accounts last year, and this year's income in film and television is as high as 280 million Hong Kong dollars, one of which is "Chainsaw" has provided us with a profit of more than 100 million. β
In addition, the financial affairs of Oriental Charm Company are still under the supervision of the group for the time being, and this year, in addition to their own expansion needs, it has also brought nearly 90 million Hong Kong dollars in profits to the group. In the end, the cinema and Tiantian also provided nearly 40 million Hong Kong dollars of revenue for the group. β
Chen Fang said this, smiled, and then continued: "In terms of expenditure, our group acquired Ranfeng Building at the beginning of this year, bought land to build a factory in the mainland, and opened a new company in North America, plus the cost in Taiwan this time, and the backlog of costs on several movies that have not yet been released, a total of almost 1.5 billion Hong Kong dollars. β
Chen Fang brushed the strand of messy hair in front of her forehead with one hand, and the smile in her eyes was undisguised, "Therefore, the total amount of funds that our group can use now is about 300 million Hong Kong dollars." Of course, among them, there are about 60 million funds in the accounts of American companies, which means that the funds that can be used at any time in the accounts of our group companies are about 230 million Hong Kong dollars. β
Chen Fang's words made the atmosphere in the company unprecedentedly warm, and Le Zhiren and Gui Zecheng couldn't help but applaud, after all, the annual profit was nearly 300 million Hong Kong dollars, which is a very remarkable number.
You must know that Ranfeng Group has only been established for three years, and it is engaged in the cultural industry, so it has made a profit of nearly 300 million Hong Kong dollars a year, which can be said to be more profitable than many large Hong Kong consortia when Hong Kong's economy is in trouble.
Jiang Ran listened to Chen Fang's words, and the smile on his face couldn't stop overflowing, although he was happy, but after all, he had the bottom in his heart, so he quickly calmed down, waved his hand, and quieted the excited people.
"We have so much money that we can't always put it in the bank to eat interest, but we need to think about its use and find some suitable investment channels. Jiang Ran said, looking at the three people present.
Jiang Ran's words made the excited few people finally quiet down
Le Zhiren was the most stable among the several people, and did not say the specific investment direction, but just said in agreement: "Yes! We really need to think about this problem." β
"Many of our group's businesses are now full in Hong Kong and need capital to expand externally. In this case, there is no fear that the funds will have nowhere to go. Gui Zecheng couldn't wait to speak.
Jiang Ran nodded and agreed with the opinions of the two, but also opened his mouth to greet: "Before talking about the needs of the group, my side needs to list a large amount of funds separately after the New Year. β
