Chapter 195: The 200 Million Plan
Qiu Degen smiled: "I heard that you have been busy making movies recently? ”
"Oriental Entertainment is preparing a movie." Ye Tian was puzzled, where did Qiu Degen hear the news? The entire ATV, and only Guan Zhilin knew about this plan, could it be her, and how did it reach Qiu Degen's ears?
Qiu Degen said earnestly: "Work must be focused in order to achieve results, a hammer in the east and a hammer in the west, in the end it is likely to achieve nothing, you are still young, do not understand these truths, I am a person from the past, this is a lesson summed up in a lifetime." ”
Ye Tian disagreed, the Far Eastern Group involves all walks of life, real estate, hotels, banks, tourism, where to make money, there is the shadow of the Far Eastern Group, Hong Kong has Songcheng, Singapore has Tangcheng, all of them are Qiu Degen's investment, when making money, I don't see how Qiu Degen concentrates, a few words of compassion in his heart, his face is still respectful, and he said with a smile: "I have written down the chairman's words, and you are also an example for us to learn." ”
Qiu Degen smiled, the longer he knew Ye Tian, the more he felt that Ye Tian's personality was not like any of their Qiu family, the Qiu family was kind to the heirloom, and would rather suffer losses than take advantage of others, Ye Tian was just the opposite, it was more difficult for him to suffer losses than to ascend to the sky, even if it was lip service.
"You kid, you have one thing in your mouth and one thing in your heart, you just have to know these truths in your heart, what else is going on?"
Qiu Degen looked at Ye Tian with a smile, the copyright of "Millionaire" was sold, more than 80 million Hong Kong dollars, excluding taxes, Ye Tian can get 40 million, 40 million is not a small amount, he doesn't plan to give this money to Ye Tian, the young man spends money lavishly, give him 40 million today, it would be good to have 4 million left in the New Year, he has formulated an investment plan for this money, maybe when he dies, he will give it to Ye Tian.
Ye Tian pondered for a while. opened his mouth and said tentatively: "I want to form a theater chain!" ”
"Cinemas?" Qiu Degen repeated, this kid still didn't give up, frowned and said: "Do you want to work in the movie industry for a long time?" ”
This is exactly what Ye Tian thought, nodded without hesitation, and added: "The film industry is profitable, and this industry is also very suitable for me." “
"Nonsense!" Qiu Degen interrupted Ye Tian's words in displeasure. said with a straight face: "A blind eye, the world of entertainment makes you so fascinated?" ”
Ye Tian felt a little disgusted in his heart, and corrected: "I'm not fascinated by the world of entertainment and flowers, I have my own ideas, there is only one theater, and in less than three years, I can make a career in this industry, movies are not just entertainment." ”
"Three years, what a big breath!"
"I believe in myself?"
Qiu Degen snorted. How many filmmakers have spent their lives and can only barely make ends meet, this seems to be gambling, it is always the dealer who wins, if you want to sit in the bank, you must also have capital, capital, and background. If you venture to involve a forbidden place, you can easily become the target of public criticism. Lei Juekun is still under the joint attack of Golden Harvest and Wei's family, if Hong Kong adds a new cinema chain, I am afraid that these three will join forces to suppress the new cinema chain.
Therefore, Qiu Degen does not plan to get involved in the film industry, and he also has other arrangements for Ye Tian, which is a pity to be in the entertainment industry. And recently, he has been focusing on ATV, and he gradually feels powerless for the Far Eastern Group, if Ye Tian joins the Far Eastern Group, he can also help him share some of the pressure.
Ye Tian explained: "Jiahe intends to give up a few theaters, and with these foundations. If you set up a few leading cinemas in the downtown area, you can set up a cinema line that is no less than Jiahe and Wei's, and with the cinema line, I can do better. ”
Qiu Degen asked: "In the downtown area, where did you come from the leading theater?" ”
Ye Tian was silent for a while, he had thought about these for a long time, he had a fairly complete plan, if it wasn't for the trouble in Jiahe, he planned to complete the entire plan independently, and now he had to turn to Qiu Degen for help.
"There are two sources of leading theaters, first, choose theater companies to join, and second, build new theaters by yourself."
Qiu Degen shook his head secretly and argued: "Do you know how many seats a leading theater has? ”
This is difficult for Ye Tian, he has visited all the famous theaters in Hong Kong, and he replied without thinking about it: "About 1,500 seats." ”
Qiu Degen asked again: "1,500 seats, do you know how much space is needed and how much money is invested?" With so much money invested, how much time do you plan to recoup your costs, Hong Kong is only one city, but there are hundreds of movie theaters, how can you compete with them? ”
Ye Tian replied with a glance: "To build a movie theater, plus the money to buy the land, the decoration and equipment are all counted, it will cost about 37 million, I plan to invest in five leading cinemas at one time, at most 200 million, and recover the cost within three years, as for the competition, I am confident that in the end!" ”
"Two hundred million!"
Rao is Qiu Degen was prepared and was also taken aback, 200 million Hong Kong dollars can buy an ATV, including ATV Building, ATV studio, valuable machinery and equipment, as well as countless channels, resources, and fame, Ye Tian actually used this extra money to invest in movie theaters, do movie theaters have to be inlaid with gold!
"That's 200 million!"
"Invest 40 million in a movie theater?"
"Almost."
Qiu Degen said angrily: "40 million can buy a building, do you plan to build a movie theater into a hotel!" ”
Ye Tian laughed instead, this is the wonderful part of his whole plan, Qiu Degen took a deep breath, with the experience of "Millionaire", he wanted to hear Ye Tian's overall thoughts, so as not to confuse Ye Tian's way.
"Tell me, what are your plans?"
Ye Tian said confidently: "What I want to build is not a general cinema, now the function of the cinema is too single, except for watching movies, nothing can be done, the times are advancing, cinemas are also developing, the United States has appeared in recent years multi-functional cinemas, not only to show movies, but also to add playgrounds, restaurants, entertainment and other facilities." ”
Qiu Degen said unexpectedly: "You want to build a movie theater like this? ”
"Yes!"
"The idea is good, but the investment is also huge." Qiu Degen has some excitement, he likes to invest in emerging industries, Hong Kong Songcheng Amusement Park makes him a lot of money, and he also plans to build a Tang City in Singapore.
Ye Tian said seriously: "I think now is a good time to invest in cinemas. ”
Qiu Degen looked stunned and said with a smile: "Tell me the reason." ”
With his hands on the table, Qiu Degen began to get serious, Qiu's Far East Group was in trouble, because the British Prime Minister visited China last month, Hong Kong's land price and stock price fell sharply at the same time, the Far East Group's vitality was greatly damaged, and the Qiu family's assets have also shrunk greatly, last year it was still tens of billions of net worth, and now it has dropped to billions, in just one year, nearly one-third of the property has been evaporated, especially a few pieces of land invested in it, the gold price has been bought, and now it has dropped to the price of cabbage. This plan has been submitted to the board of directors and will be implemented in a while, but now Ye Tian told him that now is a good time to invest in cinemas, is there anything surprising?
"Since the Sino-British negotiations, many people have a pessimistic attitude towards the future of Hong Kong, coupled with the impact of the economic crisis, so that Hong Kong's economy collapsed, two months ago, I bought a villa in Deep Water Bay, the price of 3.5 million transactions, a year ago, the price of villas was still more than 10 million, down by two-thirds, this is just a microcosm of Hong Kong's housing prices."
In an instant, Ye Tian became free, and said: "Hong Kong's industries are withering, but the entertainment industry is bursting with unprecedented vitality, and the chairman of the board of directors has also been carefully considered to become the owner of ATV, you know this better than me." ”
Qiu Degen interrupted: "Don't change the subject, talk about your thoughts. ”
Ye Tian said with a smile: "Hong Kong films are entering a golden age, the total box office last year was only 200 million Hong Kong dollars, and today this year, the total box office exceeded 400 million Hong Kong dollars, doubled, and the overseas box office is three times that of the local box office. ”
Qiu Degen frowned and said, "That's why you built a movie theater?" ”
Ye Tian organized the language, he didn't know much about real estate terms, so he could only repeat it in his own words: "I think Hong Kong's low price has fallen, this is only temporary, and when the Hong Kong government comes forward to stabilize people's hearts, the low price will rebound quickly, and now buy the land at a very low price and build a multi-functional cinema, which can not only make money, but also maintain its value, why not." ”
Qiu Degen couldn't help but laugh and asked, "This is your plan?" ”
Ye Tian was embarrassed, if he was given a few days to prepare specific data, he could do better, blushing and said, "Yes, that's what I mean." ”
Qiu Degen said: "I understand what you mean, but the investment is still too much, 200 million Hong Kong dollars, do you think it's worth it?" ”
Ye Tian said seriously: "In my eyes, there is no idea of worthiness. ”
"And what are you thinking?"
"I'm thinking, how many times the return on this investment!"
"Hehe......" Qiu Degen laughed, if he heard these words before selling "Millionaire", he would have kicked Ye Tian out without saying a word, whimsical, but the broadcast rights of "Millionaire" were sold for 100 million, and the iron-clad facts were in front of him, Qiu Degen would no longer despise any of Ye Tian's ideas.
"If you want 200 million, I can give it to you, but you have to promise me one condition!"
Ye Tian said unexpectedly: "Uncle means that I do it alone?" ”
"The idea is tempting. Confused, but I don't want to join. "It's not that Qiu Degen doesn't want to join the film industry, but his energy is limited, and his sons are not willing to help him, and no one will take over the ATV that he worked so hard to build.
Ye Tian was excited in his heart, Qiu Degen didn't do it, he did it himself, this was his own will.
"What conditions, uncle just say!"
Qiu Degen rolled his eyes, he was very helpless to Ye Tian, when it was good, he was an uncle, and when it was not good, he was the chairman when he opened his mouth and closed his mouth. (To be continued.) )
