Although Jiang Ran was annoyed by the investment plan made by the executives of the two companies, after making a fuss, his mood slowly calmed down, and after beating the two again, he shifted the topic to investment again.

"We now have nearly 100 million Hong Kong dollars to invest ourselves, and we need at least one commercial office building and some shops with enough space. ”

Jiang Ran said this, and turned his head thoughtfully and asked Ran Dong, "Do you have any recommendations for commercial buildings?" The total price should not exceed 100 million, not necessarily in a prosperous area, as long as the transportation is OK. ”

Ran Dong took out a folder from his side, lowered his head and turned to a page, handed it to Jiang Ran, and then said: "Mr. Jiang, look at whether this building is suitable, located in Tsim Sha Tsui East, with a single-story area of about 27,000 square feet, a total of nine floors, and now the price is about 500 square feet, and the owner is Carnival Real Estate." ”

Jiang Ran looked at the office building called Jiaxin Building in the document, the building is located in the east of Tsim Sha Tsui Dong, although it is not close to the main road, but there are several residential areas nearby, the traffic is relatively convenient, and the density of people is not bad.

Jiang Ran nodded while looking at it, "Are there any other options?"

Ran Dong bowed down and took the information from Jiang Ran's hand, turned the page again, and then explained: "This Jiayu commercial building is located near the eastern district of Mong Kok, with a ten-storey building and a total area of 320,000 square feet, and now the price is 550 per square foot, and the owner is Jianing Real Estate." ”

Jiang Ran took a look, the intersection of the building is better than Jiaxin, but for Ran Feng, this good is also limited, and the total price is relatively high, not that Ran Feng can afford it now.

Shaking his head, Jiang Ran then asked, "The price is too high, is there no other choice?"

Ran Dong introduced a few commercial buildings to Jiang Ran next, but either the price was too high, or the location was not suitable, or the area was too small, of course, there were buildings with suitable area in the area, but unfortunately the owner was unwilling to transfer.

In the end, after picking and choosing, Jiang Ran still returned his eyes to the Jiaxin Building, turned to the information of the Jiaxin Building again, patted the information with his hand, Jiang Ran raised his head and said: "Let's focus on it, since Jianian Real Estate wants to buy a house at this time, the company's business situation may not be much better, go and talk to them slowly, press the price down for me, and tell them that we can give them cash and pay it all at once." ”

Jiang Ran said this, thought about it, and finally looked up at Ran Dong and Gui Zecheng and said, "My bottom line is 100 million Hong Kong dollars, and I can't exceed this bottom line." ”

"Yes, Mr. Jiang!" Gui Zecheng and the others listened to Jiang Ran's instructions, and although a trace of embarrassment flashed in their eyes, they still replied immediately.

Jiang Ran's request is very difficult for the two of them to complete, because it is almost equivalent to overwhelming the property price by 400 square feet.

Jiang Ran didn't care about the feelings of the two subordinates, after he determined the office building, he went through the planning plan for the theater and the rental store.

Seeing this detailed planning plan, to be honest, if it weren't for the big hearts of the two, Jiang Ran would be very satisfied with their investment plan.

Just like this specific plan for the theater, the whole plan takes into account the screening halls and rentals in the theater in the future, as well as the possible peripherals in the future, and even the non-staple food shopping spots inside the theater, and the prototype of the future comprehensive theater has been established in this design plan.

In this plan, the total area of the theater and rental stores in the future will be between 20,000 and 30,000 square feet, and each point will include a screening hall with 500 to 800 seats, as well as a store that includes the rental, sale and distribution of discs, books, and movie peripherals.

Jiang Ran looked at the planning of the screening hall in the plan, raised his head and said to Gui Zecheng: "Ah Cheng, in the planning of the cinema screening hall, don't design the hall, all of them are designed as a multi-screen small hall projection mode for two or three hundred people. ”

Gui Zecheng obviously didn't understand what Jiang Ran meant in his heart, because now Hong Kong's theaters are basically halls, and there is no concept of multi-hall screenings, and small halls generally exist in the countryside or places where there are not many moviegoers.

Jiang Ran didn't understand Gui Zecheng very well, so he explained to him: "Under the current hall screening mode, in order to increase the profits of the theater, we can only chase those high-grossing movies, because if the box office is low, it is very cost-effective for the cinema." ”

"But what if we change to a multi-screen small hall projection? Obviously, we will have more screening options, and the audience will have more viewing choices, which will not only help to accumulate the popularity of the theater, but also help to give full play to the effective utilization of the theater's seats, and increase the theater's profits." ”

These truths are actually very simple, Jiang Ran explained it simply, Gui Zecheng understood, a flash of excitement flashed in his eyes, and then said excitedly: "Mr. Jiang, I understand! When the theater is renovated in the back, I will redesign the plan." ”

After Jiang Ran saw that he understood, he continued to mention, "When our theater is designed, I hope you can operate the theater with the concept of comfort and pleasure, and I hope that our theater can let the audience get the best movie-watching experience in Hong Kong." ”

"Got it, Mr. Jiang!" Gui Zecheng was excited about Jiang Ran's concept of a multi-screen small hall, and now that he heard Jiang Ran's request, of course he agreed without hesitation.

After Jiang Ran mentioned Gui Zecheng, he continued to talk about real estate investment.

"Now that our office building has been determined, then we have to determine the matter of the theater, if we set up a theater company, the existing more than a dozen theaters can be co-opted, and we don't need too many theaters in the early stage. ”

Speaking of this, Jiang Ran paused, and then said: "In this way, we will operate five theaters in advance, and according to the multi-hall design, there will be more than ten screens. In this way, on the one hand, our financial pressure will not be too great, and on the other hand, these theaters can also accumulate more experience for our further development in the future. ”

Saying that, Jiang Ran looked at Ran Dong and asked, "If only five theaters are developed in the early stage, then we need five properties for a long time, Ah Dong, then estimate, how much money is needed." ”

Ran Dong mentally discussed the previous investigation, and then said: "Mr. Jiang, if you have five real estates, according to 25,000 square feet each, you will need more than 70 million funds. ”

After Ran Dong finished speaking, he saw Jiang Ran looking at himself with some doubts, and quickly explained: "Mr. Jiang, the reason why the price is slightly more expensive is that our theater has requirements for location, and in these locations, the price is relatively expensive. ”

After listening to Ran Dong's explanation, Jiang Ran nodded understandingly, then looked at Chen Fang and asked: "In this way, if we add the decoration of the office building and the theater, we still have a funding gap of almost 100 million, if you take out a loan, will this number put a lot of pressure on the company's funds?"

Chen Fang thought for a while and said to Jiang Ran: "Mr. Jiang, we don't actually need so many loans, on the one hand, there is still room to control the price of buying a shop, on the other hand, it takes time to acquire real estate or decorate, so we have at least a few months to go, and during this period of time, we should have no problem accumulating one or two million funds." ”

"So, I think if we take out a loan, it's about 70 million! And this amount of debt is not much of a burden for the current Ran Feng. ”

After Jiang Ran listened to Chen Fang's words, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, although he now runs several companies, but maybe it was the small citizens in his previous life who were troubled by him, Jiang Ran resisted from the bottom of his heart about loans and debt management, which was also a reason why he was angry about the large debt plan of Ran Dong and the others.

"Since this is the case, then the matter is settled, Ah Cheng, Ah Dong, after the two of you go back, you will make a new plan according to the results of our discussion, and after bringing it to me for signature, you can start to act. ”

After Jiang Ran told Gui Zecheng and the two, he said to Chen Fang: "Regarding the loan, you will contact you first, and tell me in advance when you need me to come forward." ”
