Chapter 158

Hearing Gu Cancan say that he really wanted to build a cinema, Wang Xiaoxiao said with some concern: "Building a cinema is not a simple matter. Now the market should be saturated with theaters. ”

No wonder Wang Xiaoxiao is worried, the cinema has had a bleak history. In the past, Gu Cancan and Wang Xiaoxiao's homes were very close to the old state-run cinema in Qingjiang City, and the two of them knew very well the whole process of the state-run cinema from glory to bankruptcy. When the state-run cinema was at its worst, the staff could not be paid, and the employees were left with only one to watch the gate, and later the land of the cinema was directly developed into real estate.

The so-called "cinema system" is based on a number of cinemas, with capital or film supply as the link, formed by a combination of a film distribution entity and a number of cinemas, and the cinema chain with capital as the link implements a unified brand, unified film scheduling, unified operation, and unified management, and only implements the distribution and screening mechanism of unified film scheduling for the film supply link. The filmmaker only needs to negotiate with the theater directly for box office sharing.

Among all box office revenues, 5% belong to the "special fund for the development of the national film industry", 3% is business tax, and the remaining net box office income is in accordance with the government's guiding opinions, and about 50% is withdrawn by theaters in the box office account, and the production and distribution are generally not less than 43%, and the rest goes to theaters.

Cinemas are a service industry developed with the process of urbanization in China, with high fixed costs and large differences in investment returns. In the chain, it has a strong voice in the film studio and a strong ability to occupy finance.

Gu Cancan looked at Wang Xiaoxiao's delicate and plain face that could be broken by blowing a bullet at hand, and he had the urge to lean over and kiss him, and he forcibly held back the bad thoughts in his heart, and unconsciously used force in his hands, and the big rhubarb meowed that he caught.

"Hey, what's wrong with rhubarb?" Wang Xiaoxiao asked curiously.

Gu Cancan hurriedly let go of his hand, gently touched Rhubarb's neck, calmed down poor Rhubarb, thought about it and said: "Now there are several major cinema chains in China, such as Beijing New Film Association, China Film Xingmei, Guangdong Dadi, Shanghai Union and Zhejiang Hengdian. ”

"Then you still want to build your own theater, to be honest, if you want to build a theater for 350 million, it's far from enough."

Gu Cancan said with a smile: "There are big games with big funds, and there are ways to play with small funds, and I don't plan to start building a national theater." Now it's crucial to find someone who can plan the project as a whole. ”

Wang Xiaoxiao stretched out her hand to hug the rhubarb, and said in thought while stroking the rhubarb: "Huayi Guangxian hasn't established its own theater, Cancan, are you taking such a big step?" ”

"Time is running out." Gu Cancan sighed and said: "Judging from the prosperity of the national film box office and the film and television industry in the past two years, the era of China's vigorous development is coming. Making movies in China is limitless, in the past, making movies was a seller's market, but now it is gradually transforming into a buyer's market, more and more capital will enter this field, if we don't spread the stall now, there will be no chance in the future. ”

Wang Xiaoxiao said: "I followed the teacher to do market research, and now the economy is indeed booming, although there are many drawbacks in it, but the economic development is indeed growing. Shengshi Entertainment, I also think that entertainment culture is going to develop rapidly. ”

"yes. Don't look at the scale of Huayi's glamorous era is much larger than the bright era, but in terms of earning ability, they are really far worse than me. It's not that they don't want to, but that the funds don't allow it. Gu Cancan said proudly, and then he was condemned in his heart, he was just using the prophetic prescience of rebirth, what was there to be proud of.

"If you build a theater chain, who will be in charge? Now, no matter whether it is a bright era or a bright future, there are no talents in this area. ”

Gu Cancan nodded: "Yes, there is no one to serve as the existing executive, and people must be poached from the outside world." ”

"Cancan, it seems that you have been thinking about this for a long time, is there a suitable candidate?"

"Well, not yet, this needs to be screened by a headhunting company." Gu Cancan replied.

In fact, she has a candidate in mind, Ye Ning.

Speaking of Ye Ning, many people may not know about it, but Tiwanda Cinema Line, there must be many people who know about it. Ye Ning is the former general manager of Wanda Cinema Line.

In 2002, Ye Ning joined Wanda Group and became the general manager of the development department within a few years.

In 2008, Ye Ning served as the general manager of Wanda Cinema Line. After taking office, Ye Ning set out to reshape the operating system of Wanda Cinema Line, and promoted the standardization of theater construction, management and service.

Under the leadership of Ye Ning, in 2010 and 2012, Wanda Cinemas won the highest honor in the film projection industry - the Asia-Pacific Film Festival (CineAsia) "Exhibitor of the Year" (Exhibitor of the Year) award.

In September 2012, Wanda Group invested US$2.6 billion to complete the merger and acquisition of AMC, the second largest cinema company in the United States.

In June 2013, Ye Ning served as the vice president of Wanda Cultural Industry Group, in charge of Wanda Cinema Line, Wanda Film and Television, Wuzhou Film Distribution Co., Ltd., China Times, Popular Film and other business systems of the Group.

In November 2014, Wanda Holdings, together with China's three mainstream cinema chains - Dadi, Jinyi and Hengdian, established Wuzhou Film Distribution Co., Ltd., with Ye Ning as the chairman.

He resigned as a director of the Company in February 2016 and will no longer serve as a member of the Professional Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company and other positions.

In 2016, he served as Vice President of Huayi Brothers Media Co., Ltd. and General Manager of Huayi Brothers Film Co., Ltd.

In the original time and space, the grievances between Wanda and Huayi also have a certain relationship with Huayi's poaching of Ye Ning.

From his resume, it can be understood that Ye Ning has a strong ability in management and capital operation, and it is no wonder that Wang Jianlin was furious after he jumped to Huayi, and when he came to Ye Ning's position, resignation is not only for this person to leave, he is no longer alone, his network, connections, and business ability will go.

The problem now is that Ye Ning is not doing cinema work at the moment, Gu Cancan has no way to explain to Wang Xiaoxiao, and he simply did not mention Ye Ning to her.

But Ye Ning's person Gu Cancan is determined to win, Wanda's management is very cruel, being able to serve as the general manager of Wanda Cinema for so many years has proved Ye Ning's super management and operation ability, Gu Cancan wants to build his own cinema line and break through from the existing cinema pattern, there must be a master like Ye Ning to assist, as for what she just said about wanting to find a headhunter, it is actually prevaricating Wang Xiaoxiao's words, if there are really talents no less than Ye Ning in these cinemas, I am afraid that they will have developed long ago.

At present, the domestic cinema chain can be divided into three categories: asset-linked, contract-based franchise and comprehensive cinema with equal emphasis on both. Relying on the asset connection model, Wanda Cinema Line uses capital and film supply as a link to realize the unified brand construction, unified management and unified scheduling of its cinemas. Shanghai Film Co., Ltd. and others signed contracts to join the film supply link to achieve unified film scheduling, but it cannot fully realize the unified operation and management of a unified brand. The main part of the cinema chain is mainly linked by assets, and at the same time welcomes to join, such as the New Film Association, Jinyi Media, etc.

Different investors have different management models.

For example, Wanda is equipped with cinemas in the commercial real estate under the group, which attracts popularity to the business district, brings stable cash flow, realizes four unified management models, and the management is also relatively standardized, which can reflect the situation to the headquarters in time and make adjustments in time.

But Gu Cancan wants to be a theater chain, and it is basically impossible to be like Wanda. If she had been reborn a few years earlier and intervened when the real estate industry in China had just developed, it would have been possible for her to ......

Companies with the purpose of building a single theater, such as UME, can join different theater chains and have their own set of operation and management models, which are implemented according to the arrangements of the theater chains. There are also theaters in small and medium-sized cities, some of which are upgraded from old theaters, which are mixed with various capital sources such as real estate developers, governments, and wealthy businessmen, and the operation model is also determined according to the local situation of the theater.

There are four links in the film industry chain: production, film distribution, cinemas, and theaters.

The producer is a company that shoots films, and the film distribution and cinema chain are secondary distributors, and the distribution resources are scarce, especially imported films, which are only operated by China Film Group and Huaxia Film.

What Gu Cancan is thinking about is to let the bright era integrate the distribution and production business upward, and make its own cinemas and theaters downward, if it can succeed, the bright era will have the form of a comprehensive media group, which is also Gu Cancan's goal.

It's just that this goal is quite difficult to achieve, but it is precisely because of the difficulty that it is challenging, and reliving a lifetime, of course Gu Cancan wants to do something that he didn't think about in his previous life.

"Cancan, what do you want?"

Wang Xiaoxiao sent Gu Cancan suddenly began to wander, and after waiting for a while, he didn't see any reaction from her, and couldn't help but stretch out his finger and pestle her.

Gu Cancan woke up in shock, she was fascinated by the things she was thinking about the theater just now.

"It's nothing, smile, I'm rich now, tomorrow is the weekend, let's go squander, go shopping, go shopping, go buy bags!"

……

If you want to dig Ye Ning, this matter can't be taken lightly, Gu Cancan thought about it, but he still wanted Su Luo and his father to come forward to talk to Ye Ning in person, and others didn't feel at ease when they went to Gu Cancan.

Su Luo was also shocked when she learned about Gu Cancan's idea, it is not a simple matter to establish a cinema chain, she knew that Gu Cancan was bold, but she didn't expect Gu Cancan to be so bold that he would take 350 million yuan to burn the cinema chain, and even a theater.

"It's not 350 million, of which 50 million I want to use on bright videos, and the investment amount of the cinema chain is 300 million in the early stage. Sister Su Luo, I know that you also have a bit of money in your hands, do you want to follow suit? ”

Su Luo is a little rich woman, during the big bull market, Gu Cancan had a vague persuasion of Su Luo to invest in stocks, Su Luo listened to the suggestion, and also invested two million in the stock market, and later also followed Gu Cancan's advice to withdraw from the stock market, and her assets tripled, plus she has other stable investments, Gu Cancan estimates that Su Luo's net worth is almost 10 million.

The cinema chain is an extremely money-burning investment project, not to mention that Gu Cancan still wants to do it with the theater at the right time, and the demand for funds is very large.

But Gu Cancan is at least seventy percent sure that the cinema chain of the bright era has successfully developed, so he doesn't mind giving a boost to his own people.

"Hehe, you little girl, you have more than 300 million in your hand, and you are still thinking about this little money in my hand." Su Luo and Gu Cancan jokingly said, "Cancan, we all know that the establishment of a cinema chain is not so simple, and this little money may not be enough to burn,"

"The early stage is enough, and the investment can be introduced in the later stage. Sister Su Luo, let's first find a professional company to do a good job of market research on the cinema, and after the senior executives are in place, we will immediately start the formation of the bright cinema chain. ”

Su Luo only thought for a while, and then made up his mind: "Okay, Cancan, sister is crazy with you, and I will also invest 10 million!" This is all my sister's net worth, and if you lose it in the future, you will be responsible for your sister's dowry. ”

Gu Cancan said with a smile: "Sister Su Luo, don't worry, in the near future, you will definitely feel extremely proud of this investment." ”

"Oh, I hope so. By the way, Cancan, 50 million is spent on bright videos? What do you think about this? ”

Gu Cancan smiled mysteriously and said to Su Luo: "I plan to hold an activity on Bright Video, similar to Andy Lau's Asian Rising Star Director Program, and fund and support some young directors to make short drama films." ”

Su Luo put his hand on his forehead and said with emotion: "Cancan, sometimes I can't figure out why you have to work so hard at a young age, a child of your age should secretly like a sunny little boy, like a certain star, and do youthful things in your youthful age, but you seem to be chasing behind you, and you have been doing something desperately." ”

Gu Cancan secretly thought in his heart, there is indeed something chasing behind him, that is time.

If time is money, Gu Cancan's time is constantly depreciated with the advancement of time, and when the time reaches the point where she is reborn in her original time and space, her foresight is completely gone, and her advantage over ordinary people no longer exists, so Gu Cancan has always had a sense of urgency.

She is actually considered successful, with the assets under Gu Cancan's name, even if she starts eating, drinking and having fun now, it is enough for her to spend extravagantly for a lifetime. So other people sometimes don't understand very much, a little girl, even if she has become a star and has a net worth of hundreds of millions, why Gu Cancan is still so desperate, one project after another is proposed from Gu Cancan's mouth, she has been busy like a spinning top.

Zi Fei knows the feelings of the fish, and if someone else is not Gu Cancan, he can't understand the anxious sense of urgency in her heart.

Sometimes, Gu Cancan also thinks, I don't know what happened to her original body in the original time and space, is it dead, or is it the soul of the female Gu Cancan in this time and space that has traveled through the past?

Gu Cancan hopes that it is the latter.
