Chapter 350: Clear Mind
To say that when he came out of the old chief's courtyard, Li Mingbao's whole brain was still dizzy, after all, he got too many things from the old chief, so much that he could make a lot of money with any idea. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info I'll tell you, the fastest update of the novel is the eye.
Compared with the hard work in Hong Kong, which doesn't make much money, Hollywood has to use its brains to get the dollars. In the current mainland market, no matter which direction you want, as long as you dare to bet, there is basically no reason to lose money, even if you want to lose money, the local government can't let you lose money.
To tell the truth, as long as the current foreign capital enters the mainland, invests according to the rules, and does not do anything else, there is no loss of money at all, the government can escort you, no matter what industry you do, as long as you produce something, like wine, it can directly become government hospitality supplies, small investment, is municipal hospitality supplies, large investment, is provincial hospitality supplies, if there is a large amount of investment, it may not be able to get wine to the state banquet.
Therefore, the first batch of people to invest in the mainland, even if your own capital is not thick enough, the mainland government can make your capital thicker, make a benchmark, and prove the effectiveness of attracting investment.
Li Mingbao doesn't engage in other things, just the entertainment industry is enough for him to do it for a lifetime. And the entertainment industry is involved in things, not a little bit of a star, where you can start, basically the profits are quite lucrative, it can be said that this is a big gold mine, and even some individual places, the profits are more than finance.
This is why Hollywood can attract the attention of many Wall Street investors, because their financial industry is really not as profitable as the entertainment industry in some places. So for many years after that, the connection between Hollywood and Wall Street became closer, unless there were some special circumstances, otherwise the entertainment industry would not decline, even during the war, the development of Hollywood did not stop.
The more you know about this industry, the more you know how big the background is. Especially after Li Mingbao obtained the access permit, this feeling became more and more obvious. If the population of the mainland is not enough, the profit may not be much, but even a place like South Korea, with a population of tens of millions, can create brilliant results. Not to mention that a place like the mainland, which has almost unlimited potential, is definitely the first rich mine.
On the way back, Li Mingbao's mind was crazy about countless thoughts, and the plan under each thought could bring him incomparably rich returns. But after talking to his eldest brother, Li Mingbao's originally fanatical heart slowly calmed down, until he understood the real reason why the sixth uncle disdained such good conditions on the mainland, and understood that the rich mine of the mainland is not so easy to reclaim.
By this time, Li Mingbao had become calm, and Li Mingbao, who had calmed down, coupled with the experience of the big man, finally made efforts in three aspects, as for other money-making entertainment industries, Li Mingbao felt that it was more rational to let it go first. For example, singers who have a close relationship with movie stars, or the field of singing, Li Mingbao thinks that this is not an industry that he can get involved in.
Because compared to movie broadcasting, there is no suitable media in the mainland, and the dissemination of songs, even in the mainland, is not very difficult. If others can't afford a VCR, can't they afford a radio? Radios that can play cassette tapes are not uncommon in the current mainland, although they cannot be said to be completely popular.
Especially for young people in the stage with the strongest receptivity to songs, their radio penetration rate is much higher than that of people in other bands. One of the largest potential buying groups is not within the scope of their control, and the industry of song distribution is quite unpromising in the mainland.
No matter how good a song you are, as soon as you record it on a tape, a pirated tape can enter thousands of households, and in these days, the mainland does not even have a patent law, and there is really no difficulty in making pirated copies of songs, and even if you catch a pirated businessman, you don't know how to deal with it. Say he pirates your songs? This is a good reason, and it is indeed not a good thing on a moral level, but if you want to say that if you impose sanctions on these people at the legal level, even if it goes to the High Court, no one can support your opinion. Because there is no law in this area at all, how can you ask the High Court to decide? Not even a fine, no such clause.
Even within the state-owned enterprises, there is a situation in which you copy me and I copy you, and if the responsibility for piracy is investigated, Li Mingbao will immediately become unlikable on the mainland, and the people who offend him will definitely go to the sea, so the distribution of audio tapes on the mainland is definitely not a money-making business.
As for making money by holding concerts, this is even more of a proposal, you can do it in Hong Kong, you can get the principal and Mei Twenty-eight, you hold a concert in the mainland, at least in this year, it is a manifestation of looking for death.
Let's not talk about how many places across the country can provide the conditions for concerts, after all, you must at least hold concerts in a closed environment, right? Otherwise, how would you count the tickets? The ones that are open in the open air are called charity performances, and if you don't pay for it when you dance and sing, you have to bother yourself to run the venue, which is definitely a loss-making business.
Well, even if you get the gymnasium down and have the conditions for a concert, but how many tickets are sold is also a big question, just like the largest gymnasium in China now, a gymnasium can't arrange 100,000 people at most, and such a gymnasium usually has political tasks, not everyone can apply for it, to hold a pop music concert? This can get their curator out of class, and even if you do get such a good venue, will you charge a dime for the entrance fee then? Or do you want to take two cents? Don't say you charge a dollar, then no one will be optimistic about it at all. Now one dollar, even in the capital, is expensive, and you can buy a lot of meat, enough for you to eat a good meal.
Take this money to go to a concert, the old generation can break your legs. , Loser, but words like the days are over, and they can be put on your head immediately, and a belt may be a lifetime thing, in order to watch a concert, can you really do this?
But this ticket money, compared to Li Mingbao's payment at the concert, is definitely a dime a dime, even if the ticket is full, the money received in the end is 10,000 yuan, not even enough money to invite singers, not to mention other expenses. Even if the ticket price of one dollar is full, Li Mingbao will be able to collect a total of 100,000 yuan, except for all expenses, and in the end it is still a loss-making transaction.
Therefore, there is no market for singing in the entertainment industry in the current mainland. And the entertainment industry without a market is not uncommon in the current mainland. There are pits everywhere, and these pits are quite large, and if you go in, you may not be able to get out. So after Li Mingbao really sobered up, he chose these three roads for a long time, and among these three roads, there is another one that is not so deep in the relationship with the entertainment industry.
Li Mingbao's mind is very clear, he even knows that if he really wants to make money, his first income may not come from CCTV, because negotiating with such a government department, one year or two years is not too little, ten years and eight years is not too much, and if you want to negotiate with the current CCTV This kind of commercial problem is far from being able to be solved by commercial negotiations, what you have to do first is a political matter, only when the higher departments nod, you can really have the opportunity to cooperate with CCTV. If the higher authorities don't nod their heads, even if you can create a value of 100 million yuan in a short period of time with this industry, they won't agree.
Therefore, if you want to really have a harvest in the mainland in a year, it is the peripheral industries with the lowest profit margins that can achieve the goal. As for why Li Mingbao thinks that the profit margin of the surrounding industries is the lowest? Because Li Mingbao is holding in his hand, there are few peripheral industries with his own copyright, and the value that can be created is quite low.
The peripheral profits of "Home Alone" should be quite good, but unfortunately, Li Mingbao has long packaged and sold this part of the profit to the Twentieth Century Fox Company, and the profit of this piece is not in Li Mingbao's hands at all. As for other movies, either the current popularity is not enough, or the surrounding market that can be developed is not very good, anyway, Li Mingbao's chips in the peripheral industry can be said to be quite bad.
If you want to receive orders as quickly as possible and make huge profits, Li Mingbao actually has only one way to go in this industry, to be an OEM, just like Futukang, as for whether there will be an assembly line employee like Zhang Quandan, it will have to be talked about later.
And now in the mainland, the advantages of OEM are not so obvious, because even if Li Mingbao wants to do OEM, the problem of raw materials may not be able to be solved in the mainland. So the first action, at most is to do processing with incoming materials, to earn some assembly fees, although the profit is not very high, but this industry really in some time period, to create a lot of value for the mainland, of course, no one has put forward this concept yet, if Li Mingbao really set up such a factory, maybe he will become the first in the mainland to do processing.
Regarding this matter, if you really want to do a good job, Li Mingbao still has to go to Hollywood once and pull Disney online, because doing OEM this thing, especially in the entertainment market, Disney is a company that cannot be ignored, if you can sign some OEM contracts with them, just the dolls and other puppet peripherals that they want to make every year, the output value is hundreds of millions, billions of dollars. Li Mingbao picks a little bit from these orders, which is enough to feed a large factory, and such an enterprise, no matter where it is in the mainland, will be liked by many people, and it can solve a large part of the surplus labor force.
