Chapter 30 Gambling and Entertainment

Xiongwei is the first time to come to China, and the Greater China circle has little contact.

But he didn't feel strange, because there were too many acquaintances.

Don't look at this kid hasn't been to Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan a few times, most of the time around Thailand and Malaysia. But this kid has been learning boxing for almost 20 years, and he has a large number of red stick brothers, all over the Indian subcontinent and Southeast Asia, and he can connect with the earth.

At least take Yang Wei and Huang Datong to Hong Kong and Macao, it's no problem to be a male nanny, and I'm not afraid that the child will be lost and won't be able to get it back.

"Get out of the team and follow the car to the Bao'an government."

When the last time they refueled outside the gate, the team divided their troops again at the gas station. Yang Wei patted Xiongwei's shoulder and motioned for him to take the opportunity to separate from the main force.

In Li Shuangxi's surprised eyes, Xiongwei started without saying a word, and slowly followed behind several cars that were driving out of the gas station.

Huang Jinchao, the co-pilot, looked like a matter of course, turned his head, and smiled back: "Xiaofu, did you see the pineapple stall on the side of the road just now?" ”

Yang Wei secretly praised this guy's questioning and asked interestingly, and said honestly: "Anyway, there will be a score in a while, let's just stop, and I'll take Datong to play a few games." ”

The regiment is a regiment organized by the Youth League Committee, but it contains a bunch of masters from various organs.

Chinese come out to play shopping and sweep goods, but in the early days of accommodation is very picky. Unlike later, when the Burj Al Arab wished that most of the people living in it were compatriots, the Habibie learned to fry double-faced eggs.

These idlers have a variety of places to stay, both inside and outside the gate. There are relatives and friends, there are people who live in government guest houses, and even more bullish are the Shanghai Hotel and Grand Sky, but they live in the Xinghua Hotel.

Save travel expenses, rather live poorly, but also eat better. The accommodation fee saved can buy a lot of silk scarves and soap.

Disperse accommodation, partner tourism, people in this era really know how to play.

Instead of entering the customs and dividing it again, it is better to flash while no one is paying attention.

"Take me to play a game? Game? Huang Datong came to his senses when he heard the sound, and his rat anger went down a lot.

"Games, not consoles. During the Chinese New Year, children have New Year's money, but our army's gourd baby is backlogged, I will take you to see how others sell toys. Yang Wei grinned.

The model aircraft and gourd babies of the bear army rely on part-time children and are all itinerant traffickers.

Usually nothing, this New Year's Day attracted Yang Wei's attention.

There is no outlet-level retail terminal, it is difficult to grasp the ground, it is difficult to expand the capacity, and it is not a big game.

[Meitu Bear] and [Xiongtu] are not the same company, and their business fields are not related.

Meitu Bear is the basic plate of the Bear Army, currently making handmade toys and selling animation peripherals, and is currently a toy production and sales company.

The products are either processed with incoming materials and hand-packed by primary school students, or they are OEM, which is not much better than the leather bag company.

The only core advantage is that you have a part of the copyright, but in this ghost era, you have to popularize science for a long time when you tell people what copyright is, and people will ignore you after the popularization of science.

Yang Wei's positioning of Meitu Meixiong has always been an entertainment company, and toys are not even classified as major categories, but just the beginning of the start.

The companies he currently founded are all companies that focus on a single field, and a single company only focuses on its own areas of expertise. We will never engage in diversification and will never engage in group companies.

There is a saying in the investment community that if you can't tell what you do, don't invest in it.

Coca-Cola is a drink, Boeing is an airplane, Lao Gan Ma is hot sauce, Wang Zhihe is tofu, and Liubiju is pickles.

Lao Gan Ma dares to engage in the Internet, Wang Zhihe dares to engage in real estate, Liubiju dares to diversify, I don't know what the consequences are, with Chinese characteristics, everything is possible.

But Coca-Cola and Boeing dared to do so, guaranteeing a break from cooking.

It is estimated that only Chinese investors in the world will rejoice when a company that sells clothes is involved in cross-sector industries such as real estate and the Internet, which have nothing to do with the main business.

The big positive? Concept stocks? Subject matter?

Chinese investors are no longer speculating in stocks, this is the way to sell antiques, and playing is a story.

If you dare to do this in the U.S. stocks, it is light to abandon you, and it is certain to sell. Moreover, I will sue you to death.

In the early days, domestic landslides and tsunamis advocated corporate diversification, why didn't you mention it later? The Lord who was really fooled at the beginning, and in the end, the corpses were all over the field!

There are two types of true diversification: general trading companies and conglomerates. Not a business, not a company.

Coca-Cola's market capitalization is not called a group company, but a company.

Each company made by Yang Wei is a professional company focusing on a single field, with separate projects, separate finances, and separate operations.

Each is independent, not subordinate to each other, does not need to cross-sharehold, does not have to take care of each other's business, and the only common umbrella is a public pool of funds that resists external risks.

In the face of hostile takeovers, economic crises, and industry recessions, funds will be released from the public pool to resist or dilute risks.

Once the company is judged to have lost its growth potential, the company is sold off and the public capital pool is increased. As soon as the risk crosses the warning line, let the damned company die, so as not to pull down the water level of the public pool.

It is not the parent company at the higher level, not the group headquarters, the manager of the public pool.

Managers can be individuals, a group of partners, or several families.

It can be an individual, a group of partners, a bank controlled by several families.

This is the consortium structure.

Meitu Bear will only be involved in entertainment-related businesses. When it comes to financing, it will be entrusted, and no matter how much money is made in real estate, it will never look at it, and no matter how promising the project comes to finance, it will always say no.

It only focuses on the entertainment industry.

Don't touch the gaming industry, don't touch the media, don't touch the audio-visual, embarrassed to call it an entertainment company?

At present, the most cutting-edge in China, the most contact with teenagers is the billiard hall, the threshold is low, and there are a few cases indoors and outdoors.

Further up are the game arcades, including the TV game arcades and arcade arcades that have not yet been phased out. All indoor, there is a certain investment threshold.

After that, there are Internet cafes, online and online games.

The United States is a pachinko room, a kind of mechanical arcade machine, with a little LED bulbs flashing around. The two hands are either patting around the machine left and right, or standing in front of the machine, playing steel balls.

Later, he joined the arcade of video games, Lao Mei loved to play ball, and the first arcade machine was PONG, tennis.

After that, fighting like Street Fighter, simulation like driving a motorcycle, and shooting like duck shot sprung up.

Some states and places where gambling is legal, such as Las Vegas and Atlantic City, and scattered Indian reservations, have more slot machines in the category.

There are all kinds of shops in the streets and alleys, eating fast food, changing the mouth, you can throw a few steel hammers at any time, and play a few handfuls.

Asians love to gamble, not only in China, but also in East Asia, South Korea, Japan and Southeast Asia.

This kind of shop will have several shots in some Japanese movies. The rice cooker in "Black Gold" is the Taiwanese version of redeeming chips. It's like the mahjong machine in the mainland game hall, the rich man who shoots poker, and the lottery head is a cigarette of different grades.

This kind of pachinko shop is all the rage in Japan, everywhere, all controlled by gangsters, and they make no less money than in Las Vegas.

Yang Wei wants to introduce this kind of gambling game into the business scope of Meitu Meixiong.

First, the outlets are easy to pave, which can make the Meitu bear brand grip the floor. The second is the flow of gold. The third is influence.

But there are two problems, first, the domestic environment does not allow it. Second, the limitations of the gaming industry.

In later generations, the gambling industries in Atlantic City and Monaco continued to weaken, and Monte Carlo was covered with dust. The gambling industry has shifted from a fixed place to a fixed way to the participation of the whole people. Lotteries and other forms with online participation are getting higher and higher.

Las Vegas has long since transformed into an entertainment city, with a focus on tourism and family participation.

The proportion of gambling is getting less and less, there are more and more big shows, and all the big casinos have shows. Tyson's buddy boxed there, and the fee for a group photo was the same as the price for a ladyboy photo, which was twenty, a baht, and a knife.

All kinds of stars, all kinds of boxing matches, all kinds of circuses, one big show after another. One hotel after another has been turned into an opera house, but it is not an opera, it is all a show. Singing, dancing and magic, nothing to slip off the lions and tigers, the audience is of all ages.

Attending the show has become a kind of local social life, and the men and women who sit at the single table closest to the stage are all dressed in evening dresses, as if they were attending the Oscars.

Las Vegas no longer focuses on roulette and blackjack, gambling has become the most exciting and attractive element, business cards are more meaningful, and the whole city has become a magical park.

I don't ask you to gamble, I let you play.

Macau Street also changed very early, many gambling halls have long been out, Lisboa is a department store, there are many privately contracted counters.

Tourism, dining, shopping, accommodation, and fish for men to watch, the surrounding area accounts for more and more.

Before the handover, Mr. Ho smashed the foreign game once, and after the gambling cards were dispersed, Macau quickly turned towards an entertainment city. As in Las Vegas, the big show and tourism are getting bigger and bigger.

Gambling, after all, is not good and has great limitations.

If you want to introduce the form of gambling to Meitu Bear, it must be like infiltration, and people will not be aware of it.

Only in this way can children and their parents be brought in, and this can be spread out openly.

"Three cars are coming."

On the way to the Bao'an District Government, the two GM MPVs left the team again and turned into the street from the avenue. Xiongwei said casually while driving.

Yang Wei only saw the front face of a crown in front of the rearview mirror through the rearview mirror, didn't look at it much, and said helplessly to Huang Jinchao of the co-pilot: "This is to eat us, please Brother Chao open a few more rooms." ”

Huang Jinchao looked behind him and responded with a smile: "Okay." ”

After that, he took out the phone and told the family to leave a few more suites out.

"Eat big households, eat big households, climb along the pole, and lose the faces of our lords in the capital." Huang Da, like the little adult, sighed lamentingly.

Li Shuangxi of the Overseas Chinese Affairs Office was inexplicable, and he didn't know what several people were talking about. (To be continued.) )
