Chapter 290: Family Background (2)
After Jiang Ran met with Jiang Jianguo and Zhao Hongjun, he listened to the reports of Liu Liwei and Jiang Wei, and then summoned several senior executives of the group to listen to their reports respectively.
Among them, Chen Fang's financial reporting is naturally the top priority.
"Mr. Jiang, in 1984, the five companies of our group, Tian Tian Media, made a profit of 21 million Hong Kong dollars, and the profit of the video publishing company this year has reached 110 million Hong Kong dollars, including the profit of the American branch of almost 1 million US dollars. ”
Of course, the majority of the group's profits are still in film and television production and distribution. In the whole year of 1984, Ranfeng Film and Television Company produced a total of seven films, two TV series, and three films produced last year were released this year. Of course, there are also three films produced this year that need to be scheduled for release in '85. ”
When Chen Fang said this, she raised her eyes and glanced at Jiang Ran, and continued: "By the end of last month, that is, December 84, our group produced and distributed a total of seven films, with a total profit of 530 million Hong Kong dollars for the group. ”
"And this is not counting Mr. Jiang's "Zombie Out", although this film has not yet been released in the Western market, but according to the prediction of the film and television company and the distribution company, it should not be a problem to bring hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars to the group in the end. ”
Jiang Ran was obviously very satisfied with the profit situation of Ranfeng Group in self-made movies in the past year, and at this time, his face was full of smiles, and he looked at Chen Fang and then asked: "In addition to our own films, does the distribution company have any profits in the agency distribution? In addition, the film and television company should also have some income in TV series this year, right?"
When Chen Fang heard this, she smiled slightly, and then replied: "Mr. Jiang, what you said is right! This year, the distribution company has made great progress in the operation of agency distribution compared with last year, and has achieved a profit of tens of millions of yuan through the film distribution business throughout the year. ”
In terms of TV dramas, the TV series "Zombie Taoist" they produced this year was a big hit in Hong Kong and the whole of Southeast Asia, producing a total of two TV dramas in one year, achieving a profit of 15 million Hong Kong dollars. ”
Jiang Ran nodded and said: "In other words, in the whole year of 1984, our two companies, film and television and distribution, together achieved a profit of more than 550 million Hong Kong dollars through film and television creation and distribution?"
Jiang Ran said this, his eyes were already smiling, you must know that in the first half of the year, Ranfeng Group was also short of funds in order to acquire real estate properties, and had to borrow a loan of 200 million Hong Kong dollars from the bank.
At that time, Jiang Ran, who was used to being debt-free and light, was under great pressure.
"Yes, Mr. Jiang!" Chen Fang, the financial steward of Ranfeng Group, was naturally in a good mood in the face of the group's abundant funds again.
"Okay!" Jiang Ran shouted, "Now we don't have financial pressure." ”
"Mr. Jiang, this is not over yet. Don't forget, our group has a new profit point this year!" Chen Fang said again with a smile.
Jiang Ran looked at the other party, and then asked with some surprise: "Burning Feng Cinema has results now?"
It's no wonder that Jiang Ran is strange, but Jiang Ran's usual focus is on film and television production and distribution and related industries, and he really doesn't pay much attention to the new company of all the properties of this newly established management group.
Jiang Ran's focus on Ranfeng Cinema has never been on his profits, in the final analysis, he only knew that Hong Kong housing prices would skyrocket in the future, and wanted to take the opportunity to hoard a batch of real estate for personal use and appreciation.
Although Hong Kong's real estate industry has rebounded significantly with the signing of the Sino-British Joint Declaration in Beijing on December 19, 1984, Jiang Ran did not expect that he could now achieve a substantial profit through the properties he has acquired.
Jiang Ran's words made Chen Fang slightly stunned, after all, the monthly financial statements of the group and the company were to be reported to Jiang Ran for review, and now it seemed that Jiang Ran didn't seem to know much about this matter.
"Mr. Jiang, the group's financial statements have been reflected in every month, especially in the last two months, with the construction of our own business district of Ranfeng Cinema, the leasing situation of several of our commercial buildings is very good. ”
Chen Fang looked at Jiang Ran cautiously and reminded the other party that he usually did not hide anything in his finances, and all the statements had been reported.
Jiang Ran naturally heard the meaning of the other party's words, shook his head and smiled, and then said: "I know, I have seen this content, but I have been too busy in the past two months to read it carefully, and I don't blame you." ”
"Tell me in detail, I remember that a few months ago, the lease rate of our properties under Ranfeng didn't seem to be too ideal, except for the area used by our group itself?"
Chen Fang glanced at Jiang Ran a little helplessly, and then had to flip through the information in front of him, and started the work that should have been done by Gui Zecheng, the person in charge of Ranfeng Cinema, and told Jiang Ran about the current operation of Ranfeng Cinema.
"Mr. Jiang, when we first took over these commercial buildings, their vacancy rate was indeed quite high, and some even reached nearly half of the vacancy rate. ”
"However, after the completion of the acquisition of Ranfeng Group, because of the new cinema we built, the prosperity of the business district in the entire area, and the gradual recovery of the real estate industry in the second half of the year, so the vacancy rate of Ranfeng Cinema is now very small, and the profit has naturally increased a lot. ”
When Chen Fang said this, he slowed down slightly, then looked at Jiang Ran, who was listening very seriously, and then said again: "Now the external leasing area of Ranfeng Cinema has reached nearly 400,000 square feet, and the rental price has basically reached the average price of commercial buildings now - 30 yuan per square foot. ”
"Therefore, now Ranfeng Cinema can basically provide our group with a stable income of tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars every month, and this part of the income will gradually rise with the heating up of the real estate industry, becoming the most stable part of our group's source of funds. ”
Chen Fang's words made Jiang Ran feel a little unreal, you must know that he only spent a total of more than 600 million yuan to acquire these real estates, and now in addition to the company's own use, the rental income alone can actually bring tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars per month.
That is to say, Jiang Ran's investment of hundreds of millions of yuan will only take a few years to fully recover the cost, and even Jiang Ran believes that when Hong Kong's real estate industry leaps forward again in the future, he may recover all the investment costs in one year.
The most important thing is that Jiang Ran's acquisitions have also saved a lot of costs for his company, and according to Jiang Ran's estimates, the total office and commercial building area occupied by all the companies he owns in Hong Kong is more than 500,000 square feet.
That is to say, Jiang Ran's investment in the real estate industry in Hong Kong not only brought hundreds of millions of dollars in annual income to himself, but also saved hundreds of millions of costs for his company.
What's more, Jiang Ran also has a golden doll that lays eggs.
Jiang Ran now finally understands why those real estate developers are so rich, and why those banks can easily give huge loans to real estate companies.
These people and companies who do real estate are completely equivalent to opening their own money printing machines!
Now Jiang Ran even began to wonder whether he should take advantage of the fact that Hong Kong's real estate industry has not fully recovered and invest in the real estate industry on a large scale, after all, it is easier and faster to make money in this way.
At least in Jiang Ran's view, the film and television industry, which is now his main business, will definitely not be able to compare with Ranfeng Cinema in terms of making money if it can't open the North American market in the future.
Chen Fang did not know Jiang Ran's thoughts, she continued to report: "After we completed several real estate acquisitions this year, so far, we have brought about 70 million Hong Kong dollars to the group. ”
"In 1984, the whole group achieved a total profit of HK$750 million, an increase of 150 percent over last year. ”
