In 1983, the income of Ranfeng Group was very considerable, and by the end of the year, after all the money was received, the group had a cash flow of two or three billion Hong Kong dollars.

Jiang Ran had some plans for the use of this fund, and before Le Zhiren and Gui Zecheng opened their mouths, they asked to intercept some of the funds.

Le Zhiren glanced at Jiang Ran strangely, and then asked curiously, "Does Mr. Jiang have any plans?"

"Well, I have a blockbuster plan in the next year, which means to increase investment in films, which are not only for Hong Kong and Asia, but also for North America, but for the world. ”

Hearing this, Le Zhiren and the three of them glanced at each other, and then Chen Fang asked with some apprehension: "Mr. Jiang, I don't know how much you plan to invest in this movie?"

Jiang Ran naturally saw the worry in the eyes of several people, so he said: "This time is a test of the waters, and the production and publicity are about 10 million US dollars. ”

Jiang Ran said this, glanced at the three of them, and then explained: "Speaking of which, this investment is indeed a very amazing investment amount for Hong Kong films, but if it is placed in Hollywood, then it can only be regarded as a small investment movie." ”

Le Zhiren hesitated slightly, and finally said: "Mr. Jiang, I naturally understand your determination and choice to develop the film market in North America and other regions, but our experience in developing these markets is still too small, and if the investment is so large, is the risk too high? ”

Jiang Ran understood Le Zhiren's worries very well, so he patiently explained: "I naturally know the risks involved, so before the start of this movie, I will try to introduce other funds to share the risks." In addition, I will also involve Hollywood companies to reduce the risk of film distribution. ”

Although Le Zhiren and the others were still worried about Jiang Ran's blockbuster plan, in the face of the high return of this year's "Chainsaw" and Jiang Ran's determination, they finally chose to acquiesce.

Jiang Ran saw that a few people did not object again, nodded, and said: "I will mainly use the funds of the United States and hundreds of millions of funds from Hong Kong for the filming of this movie, what do you think of the specifics?"

Le Zhiren has the highest status among the three, and he is not clumsy at this time, and he first said: "In terms of the group, after one year of operation, our cinema has a mature management and business model, do we need to consider expanding to other regions?" ”

Hearing this, Jiang Ran nodded, agreeing very much with Le Zhiren's words, but he also added: "Our cinema really needs to expand outward, but our business model is not fully mature. ”

Jiang Ran said, glanced up at a few people, and then explained: "In my heart, the final model of our cinema should be a large-scale comprehensive mall integrating entertainment, consumption and other functions, not just focusing on film and television as it is now. In the future, we will need to have restaurants, supermarkets and clothing and jewelry stores, as well as casino recreation centers such as game bars. ”

"All of this has combined to form a large-scale independent business circle that can meet most of the consumer needs, which is the ultimate model of my ideal cinema. ”

The three of Le Zhiren were already stunned by Jiang Ran's description, this is not a small goal, this is a big, strategically forward-looking plan.

Jiang Ran ignored the surprise of the three and continued: "Therefore, in terms of the expansion of the studio, we not only need to expand geographically, but also expand in content and business model. ”

Jiang Ran's words were understood, and thinking of the cinema described by Jiang Ran, Gui Zecheng said with a slight excitement: "So we still need to take advantage of the cheap land price now, and buy a building again in the prosperous area, which is where our current cinema is located, to lay the foundation for future expansion." ”

Jiang Ran nodded and said: "Yes! Now that Hong Kong's land prices and housing prices have hit a new low, now is the time to buy the bottom, anyway, most of our real estate is planned for our own use, so we don't have to worry about losing money." ”

Jiang Ran's words, Le Zhiren and the others did not raise objections, after all, Jiang Ran was talking about the current situation of Hong Kong's real estate industry, and Ranfeng Group did have demand.

"So how do we need to do this, and how much investment is there?" asked Le Zhiren.

Jiang Ran thought for a moment, and then said, "First of all, in the building where the existing cinema is located, we need to buy another two or three floors to meet the needs of future expansion. ”

"Then, it is almost foreseeable that our Ranfeng Group and my Bluestar Investment will expand in the future, and more office buildings will be needed at that time. So I also need to buy one or two more commercial buildings when the funds are satisfied, preferably connected with the cinema, so that it can be handled in terms of security. ”

Listening to Jiang Ran's words, Le Zhiren silently calculated in his heart, raised his head and frowned and said, "Mr. Jiang, if we follow your plan, there will be a big gap in our funds." This will affect the expansion of other areas of the group. ”

Jiang Ran also calculated an account in his heart, knowing that he had to follow his own plan, and there was indeed a problem with funds. However, Jiang Ran knows that Hong Kong's housing prices will not remain so sluggish, and in the future, Hong Kong's housing prices will skyrocket.

Therefore, after thinking about it for a while, Jiang Ran looked at Chen Fang and said, "It only took half a year to pay off our loan last year, and it shouldn't be difficult to take out another loan now, right?"

When Chen Fang heard this, she smiled confidently: "Mr. Jiang, rest assured! Our group has no debts, operates healthily, and has always had a good reputation in the bank, and can handle a loan of one or two hundred million yuan at any time. ”

Jiang Ran nodded, turned his head and said to Le Zhiren and Gui Zecheng: "How big is the gap in funds? ”

"In addition, although we need to expand, whether it is external or internal expansion, we have to come step by step, don't be in a hurry, thinking about eating a big fat man, that is unrealistic. ”

Now that Jiang Ran has set the tone, this matter is almost settled. What seems to be a lot of money at the beginning may turn into a negative number in the blink of an eye, so other investment matters can no longer be discussed.

After Le Zhiren and the others left, Jiang Ran thought about it and walked alone to the office area invested by Blue Star, which was still in the Burning Feng Building. Bluestar Investment Company now has a small number of employees, mainly in the investment and financial audit areas.

Seeing Jiang Ran coming, Ran Dong personally greeted him, "Mr. Jiang, you are here." ”

The Blue Star Investment Company has been established for nearly a month, and Jiang Ran has come very few times except for one trip at the beginning.

Looking at the relatively narrow office area, Jiang Ran nodded and said, "Mr. Ran, how is it? Is things straightened out now? Starting next month, all the work of Oriental Charm Company, including finance, will be handed over to you." ”

Hearing this, Ran Dong nodded, and said confidently: "Please rest assured, Mr. Jiang, my side is ready, and there will be no mistakes." ”

Jiang Ran nodded when he heard this, and said, "It's good to be confident, but you must also do a good job of handing over with Mr. Yong and Director Le, and don't make mistakes." In addition, we must do a good job in the audit work of the following companies, in the operation, we can give the following companies the greatest authority, but in the financial audit, we must do a lot of calculations, to have the spirit of picking thorns in the egg. ”

In the future, Jiang Ran does not plan to personally participate in the operation of his own companies, except for the daily operation of Ranfeng Group, and he only focuses on financial supervision and general direction control, after all, people's energy is limited.

"I see, Mr. Jiang. Ran Dong said cautiously.

"Hmm!" Jiang Ran nodded, and then said: "You will deal with the affairs of the Oriental Charm Company first, and in the next year, I will slowly put the industrial company in Shenzhen and the Longhubao Company under the banner of Bluestar Investment." ”

Jiang Ran said, glanced at Ran Dong, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Your responsibility is very heavy! You need to work harder!"

When Ran Dong heard that Jiang Ran planned to transfer Shenzhen's industrial companies and Longhubao to Bluestar Investment in the future, his heart was pounding with excitement.

Why?

Because of the increased power, of course. At that time, Bluestar will have three companies with huge development prospects, and the scale of Bluestar's investment will be no less than that of Ranfeng Group, and he Randong will also gain huge power.

"Please rest assured, Mr. Jiang, I will not let you down. Ran Dong assured Jiang Ran loudly with a flushed face.

Jiang Ran smiled and patted Ran Dong's shoulder, and then listened to Ran Dong's report on some of the work of Bluestar Investment, and then slowly returned to his office.

Time passed slowly, and the news of the New Year celebration of Ranfeng Group had spread internally, and various companies had begun to organize personnel, arrange programs, and select outstanding employees who needed to be rewarded.

After all, as a large film and television company, if Ranfeng shines at the internal party and is favored by the group's senior management, it is not impossible to become an artist.

When Ranfeng Group was actively making a year-end summary and preparing for the year-end Spring Festival activities, Zhao Hongjun and other high-level executives of Tiantian Publishing and Distribution Company were also preparing for a major event, a major event that had been prepared for more than half a year.
