Chapter 666: The Rose Garden

……

"Next up is Times Hotel Group, which has now been upgraded to a seven-star rating in terms of its internal facilities and service levels. In addition, the number of Peninsula hotels has increased from 10 at the beginning of the year to 15 today. The five new ones are Berlin, Madrid, Rotterdam, Singapore and Osaka. By the end of the year, The Peninsula hotels in Rio de Janeiro, New Delhi, Rome and Moscow will open. As for the 'Peninsula Hotel', because of its focus on luxury, we will control the number of 40~60 hotels, mainly located in the world's 50 most economically developed cities. ”

"In addition, there are currently 135 five-star 'Jinhua Hotels' belonging to Times Hotel Group in China. The layout of the country has basically been realized. Next, the development direction of Jinhua Hotel is to focus more on Southeast Asia and other countries in East Asia while fine-tuning the country. ”

"Finally, there is 'Fuhua Hotel', because of the foundation laid by the previous APA Hotel, it has the largest number of our three hotel brands after being acquired by us. At present, including Dongying, Canada, South Korea and other regions, as well as the recently expanded domestic part, the number of Fuhua hotels has reached 523. In the ranking of four-star hotels in the world, it is in the top 10 for both quantity and quality. ”

“… Because of our high-quality catering, the occupancy rate and reputation of the hotel have been good. On average, the occupancy rate of each hotel can reach 80%. The Peninsula can even be close to 100%. Therefore, the profitability of Times Hotel Group is still very high. It can basically be maintained at about 30%, and it is expected to reach a net profit of 8.7 billion Huaxia dollars by the end of this year. But because we're always expanding. Therefore, Times Hotel Group as a whole is still in debt!"

"I'm used to being in debt. Now, in addition to Taoyuan Group, Times, Wharf, Hanhua, Matrix, Shennong Technology, isn't that company in debt?" Wang Zheng waved his hand, "Don't care if you are in debt or not." As long as we can expand our market share, we can ensure that the level of profitability exceeds the level of loan growth!"

"Yes!"

Wang Yuan nodded.

"Next up is Times Logistics, which has now been divided into two parts: sea and land, after the acquisition of a number of shipping companies such as Hapag-Lloyd and Kawasaki Kisen. We have set up 12 management areas, 58 transshipment centers, more than 2,300 distribution outlets, and more than 12,000 employees across the country, covering more than 1,200 cities and villages in China. With ports as nodes, maritime logistics radiates 267 large and small ports around the world, more than 130 countries, and more than 30,000 employees. However, compared with the sea, the logistics network on the road is more affiliated with Times Mall and Taoyuan Group, and is not open to more external enterprises, so the simple land logistics network is a loss. Maritime logistics is in a state of meager profits due to the recession of the general environment. ”

After listening, Wang Zheng didn't say much. With the example of JD.com, logistics wants to take into account both profitability and speed, which seems to be not a simple matter, after all, labor costs are too expensive. However, if there is a choice between profitability and faster delivery speed, Wang Zheng will definitely choose the latter, because user experience is the core competitiveness of an Internet company.

"Times Department Store, Times Mall, Times Logistics, as long as the total revenue of these three can ensure profitability, it's OK!

"Got it!"

"Finally, it's the culture of the times, right?" Wang Zheng asked.

Times Culture is currently the smallest company in the entire Times Group. At present, it mainly includes cinemas, film production and investment, music and games! In terms of cinemas, we currently have 378 cinemas and 3,376 screens. In terms of domestic alone, we have surpassed Wanda and achieved the first. But when we count foreign countries, we are still lagging behind. ”

"We still have time to develop!" Wang Zheng waved his hand to continue.

"In terms of film production and investment, we now invest in three main films, Cheng Long's "Kung Fu Yoga", Wu Jing's "Wolf Warrior 2", Huang Bo and Xu Jinglei's "Master of Memory". In addition, we bought the film and TV series rights for "Ethereal Journey", "Sou Shen Ji" and "Legend of the Seven Realms" from the Phantom Sword Book League. With the help of the 'neuronal mastermind', we were able to create top-notch special effects with reasonable investment. The content of the three parts is rich enough, and if we put our minds to it, we can create a series of movies similar to "Fast and Furious" and "Pirates of the Caribbean". ”

"Ethereal Journey", "Sou Shen Ji" and "Legend of the Seven Realms"?" Wang Zheng nodded knowingly, and there was a trace of remembrance in his eyes. At the beginning, he had also read these three masterpieces of the Bronze Age of Internet literature. Moreover, with the ability of the 'neuronal mastermind', it is indeed able to make amazing top-notch special effects. Thinking of this, Wang Zheng couldn't help but look forward to it.

The destruction of a huge planet with one blow, the supreme divine power under the law and the heavens and the earth, the barbaric era of the Yanhuang Battle, etc., if it is really made by the 'neuronal mastermind', it can definitely cause a sensation.

"You're thinking. However, since we have the 'neuron masterbrain' weapon in hand, we might as well acquire some well-known networks as reserves, similar to "Douluo Continent", "Ghost Blowing the Lamp", and "Breaking the Sky". Wang Zheng casually mentioned a few books that he had read back then.

"Boss, you want it. Others can see their value as well. These adaptation rights, which can be called 'masterpieces of online literature', have long been taken over by Tencent in their own hands. Even if it is sold, it is mostly joint development. ”

Wang Zheng frowned, and after thinking about it for a while, "You go and contact it first, if they don't sell, we can also accept cooperation, but only accept investment, not co-production!"

"Yes!"

"Oh, yes. Are there any acquisitions in the film and television industry?"

"At your behest of all, we have completed the acquisition of Miss Fan's company, and we are planning to follow her influence and increase the business of artist management in the next step. In addition, we are negotiating with the acquisition of 'Happy Twist', compared with the old and complex Bona and Huayi Brothers, Happy Twist has good potential, and has a mature operation system, which is very suitable for us. ”

Wang Zheng nodded, "Since you think it's appropriate, then do it!" After a pause, the figure of the bewitching woman appeared in his mind, and after a little hesitation, "Pay attention to Fan Bing, and if the opportunity is right, bring her more." ”

Several 'dew marriages' have also won Wang Zheng's pity.

"Yes, boss!" Wang Yuan nodded, "As for the two major businesses of music and games, we have just entered, and the scale is still very small. However, both are lucrative, especially the game. Therefore, I have asked the marketing department to research the development of various game production companies in China, and I am ready to acquire two or three as a foundation for development. The same is true for music, but for the time being, we have not yet found a music production company that is suitable for acquisition and has enough influence. ”

"I remember you mentioned that 'pan-entertainment' strategy to me?" Wang Zheng asked after nodding.

"Yes, entering the music and game industry is due to the consideration of the 'pan-entertainment' strategy. In the later stage, we will also add two businesses: comics and online literature. However, because we have been established for a short time, it is not yet fragmented. ”

"It's good if you have a plan. … The entertainment and cultural industry is very profitable, whether it is in the consideration of building an Internet ecosystem, or the need to compete with Tencent, Alibaba, and Baidu, we must not give up, and we should develop more rapidly. ”

"Understood!" Wang Yuan nodded, then continued, "Based on the current six subsidiaries of the Times Group, the total revenue for the three quarters is 317.92 billion Huaxia Yuan, the net profit is 89.25 billion Huaxia Yuan, the debt is 74.7 billion Huaxia Yuan, and the cash reserve is 22.3 billion Huaxia Yuan! By the end of the year, the revenue and profit are expected to increase by 32% and 34.8% on the existing basis to 419.65 billion Huaxia and 123 billion Huaxia Yuan, and the amount of liabilities will increase by 65.7% , reaching 123.78 billion Huaxia dollars, and the cash reserves to resist unexpected risks have doubled to 45 billion Huaxia dollars!"

After listening to it and thinking about it carefully, Wang Zheng nodded.

"Overall not bad. However, the steps in the 'pan-entertainment' strategy are still not big enough. The culture of the times cannot become the group's shortcoming. ”

"Yes, boss!"

"Ding Dong...!"

"Congratulations to the host for completing the 'Rose Garden' mission of the Super Mountain Villa's large-scale side quest 'Twenty-Four Flower Fairy Garden'. The rewards are as follows: 1. Shennong's plant-type super nutrient solution gift package (30 liters), 2. Biochemical gift package (30 people template), 3. Three 'blacksmith' series construction robots, 4. Two 'Fire Lion' combat robots, 5. Four pairs of prehistoric cave lions, 6. One 'giant elephant' multi-functional integrated combat vehicle, one 7,150mm caliber photon cannon, 8. Three liters of lifeform genetic optimization liquid, 9. Four construction machines of the burrower;10,Two space bracelets;11,Technical data of primary energy technology;12,' One nuclear power device for the Camel Mountain' ship;13,Two embedded memory modifiers (equal type);14,One clue to Nazi treasure;15,One chance to modify the mandatory memory;16,One copy of technical data on comprehensive garbage disposal;17,One copy of advanced basic data on high-energy physics;18,Eight blue rose plants;19,One copy of advanced technical data on genetic engineering;20,Three military elite biochemical people!"

"The host can choose five rewards as the final reward for completing this mission. The time limit is fifteen minutes, and if you do not select it after the specified time, the host will automatically give up this reward opportunity!"

After experiencing the bombardment of fifty rewards for the museum mission, and seeing the completion rewards of the 'Rose Garden', although Wang Zheng was happy, he had no sense of surprise.

"I didn't expect the task of the 'Rose Garden' to be completed first, but the 'Ganoderma lucidum Garden' was completed first!"

In the previous mission rewards of several rings of the museum, he chose the 'Ganoderma lucidum' clue. I thought that the latter would be the first to be completed, but I didn't expect the 'Rose Garden' to be completed earlier.

The thought flashed through his mind. The most important thing now is to choose your own reward. Although the five awards are not as good as the rewards of the 'Museum's Sixth and Seventh Ring Missions, they are also a rare supplement to their own strength.

In particular, there is also the 'Mandatory Memory Modification Opportunity' that he wants the most, and the surprise 'Military Elite Cyborg'!

In addition to these two, the Biochemical Bundle is also not to be missed. And later, after a slight hesitation, the embedded memory modifier also entered the waist bag. As for the last option, there was not much hesitation, and after a slight hesitation between the 'Fire Lion' battle robot and the Lifeform Genetic Optimization Liquid, the latter was chosen.

Since the establishment of the 'Nuwa Space', in order to treat those Chinese people with congenital disabilities, the Lifeform Gene Optimization Liquid has become the most consumed thing. Although Wang Zheng's previous reserves were abundant, they were consumed by thousands of people, which was also a huge number. Therefore, in the current situation that the 'Life Gene Optimization Solution' cannot be mass-produced, there is a chance that there will be more reserves.

As for the 'Fire Lion' combat robots, there are currently four, and with the Black Guard and the Ghost Gate, as well as the ordinary soldiers who have undergone intensive training and streamlining, it is enough to sweep away the turtle warlords in Southeast Asia.

Moreover, the 'Fire Lion' combat robot is not visible, and on the premise of being sufficient, there is no need to reserve too much.

"Alright, that's all for today's meeting. You two go back and rest first!"

After Wang Zheng waved his hand, Wang Yuan and Tao Jun nodded and disappeared.

Turn off the global communication terminal on your wrist. After Wang Zheng closed his eyes for a moment, an orange test tube and two silver-white metal rods appeared in his hand.

"Uncle Zhong?"

"Young Master!"

Uncle Zhong, who had been standing behind Wang Zheng, stepped forward and said respectfully.

"This is the 'Lifeform Gene Optimization Liquid' and the embedded memory modifier that I just got from the 'Rose Garden' quest reward, you can take it!"

"Yes!"

After watching Uncle Zhong take it and put it into his space bracelet, "We don't have much reserves of 'Life Body Gene Optimization Liquid', remember to save some of it!"

"Don't worry, young master, I understand!"

Nodding, Wang Zheng was silent for half an hour, his eyebrows unconsciously raised, and his eyes froze. In an instant, 33 humanoid clusters of light appeared in the clearing in front of him.

Another five minutes passed, and as the shrouded light disappeared, thirty-three cyborgs with different shapes and heights appeared in front of Wang Zheng.

Of the thirty people standing behind, Wang Zheng just glanced at it and passed. What really caught his attention were the three standing in front.
