Chapter 237 Eat eggs and open a chicken farm
At present, the cinema is almost a uniform model, and many people should still have childhood memories, that is, the kind that is located in a trouble, a storefront on the street, and a large theater. At the very least, it is a large hall with hundreds of seats, and some are even divided into several floors, with thousands or thousands of seats.
But a few decades later, the cinema has been completely replaced by the small hall model. Because it can give the audience more choices to watch films, it can better provide differentiated services.
It's very simple. Theoretically, as many small halls as there are, you can show as many movies as you want, better than one hall without a choice, right?
And it's also easier to charter a venue. If you and your girlfriend book a small hall for dozens of people, it is called romance; How to charter a thousand-seater theater? And then put a ghost movie in this empty place? That's called brain wreckage!
In fact, this is also very good for movie theaters, which can effectively increase attendance.
If a movie theater wants to reach the profit line, the attendance rate is generally around 10% to 20%. But most of the films are not full, and some films are stuck on this life and death line? Is the cinema food tasteless and a pity to abandon?
If you change to a small hall, it will be much simpler. You could have merged these people into one room! It is also possible to increase the attendance rate to more than 50%. As for the other small halls? It's perfectly possible to put other popular videos.
In other words, if the hall wants to reach the profit line, it must sell at least hundreds of tickets. Sometimes there isn't that much traffic.
The small hall is much simpler. Aren't there just a few dozen seats? A couple of couples are nibbling around in a dark corner, and this movie has been able to save the capital. And some sand withering couples just like to choose this kind of very deserted scene.
Of course, it is still the era of film, and the operating costs of small halls are relatively high. You need to have a few more projectionists, right? It's not like later, as long as a projectionist clicks the mouse, he can take care of more than a dozen small halls.
Today's film copies are still retained in reels, each of which lasts about 15 minutes and needs to be manually replaced by the projectionist.
The other is the cost of copying. Since there are more small halls, there will definitely be a need to make more copies.
And not like later. At present, the publicity and distribution costs of movies are not all used as advertisements for traditional media or online water armies, and most of the publicity and distribution costs are still made copies. A copy costs thousands of dollars, and a movie costs hundreds of thousands of copies to make.
And with the choice of small halls, these are the additional costs.
Finally, of course, there is the issue of the source of the film.
But in Hong Kong, this will never be a problem. There are many movies that can't be released in theaters every year.
What's even more wonderful is that with the development of digital technology, movies have also become digital copies and digital projections, and the above increased costs have become almost negligible.
So that's the way it is!
The other is the choice of location. There is no way to do it, it must be placed in a landmark and lively area. However, the choice of small hall is more flexible, as long as the venue is large enough, it can be placed on the fourth or fifth floor.
Regardless of the cost of rent, what is the cost of rent between the two? It's not too much to say that there is a world of difference, right?
Hey?
Li Yuan suddenly brightened. Maybe when the movie theaters in Hong Kong are dead, their own small halls will still be alive and well? It's a blue world! As long as you run away faster than you.
It seems to have a head!
"Jiaojiao, the small hall model is like this......" Li Yuan briefly introduced the situation of the small hall cinema.
Huang Jiaojiao listened to the lake tu. There is no precedent for the main thing, and the eldest lady does not have that concept at all. But just believe in the dead man, Bengong is too lazy to care about those little things: "Xiao Yuanzi, this is what you said?" The United States has now started to have a small hall in vogue? β
"That's right. Actually, we don't have to worry about it so much. Isn't it just that the theater chain is blocking us? Li Yuan said with a smile, "Whether it is a hall or a small hall, there is only one big screen." If our cinema has ten small halls, that's ten big screens! It can also be called a cinema line to the outside world. β
"Huh? Is that the truth? Huang Jiaojiao Fengyan Dayue, "That little fate, then we will open thirty stores!" 300 big screens, knock them all down! Look at this group of bastards who dare to bully the old lady! Hahaha! β
At present, there are more than 100 cinemas in Hong Kong, and there are three major commercial cinema chains, basically around 20 or 30. If there are really more than 300 big screens, it can indeed be beaten by one person.
However, in these theaters, many are franchised, that is, small bosses come to huddle together for warmth. There are also many small, independently operated cinemas.
And most of them are rented houses. It doesn't matter now, Hong Kong films are still quite popular. But with the decline of Hong Kong films, Hong Kong's real estate is rising day by day, and they have become the workers of those Hong Kong real estate owners.
"Thirty? Do you have a grudge against Thirty? β
"Nasty! Tell me if it's not okay? β
"Okay, okay. Also, we are not in a hurry to expand, even if we solve the problem of whether there is one, and we don't need others to join. Li Yuan advised, "Jiaojiao, you just buy those properties." The metaverse will rent real estate and open a movie theater. You're going to be a charter lady in peace. β
No matter how small the hall is, this is not a good investment choice, it is nothing more than the two male and female mothers are hot-headed, and they want to take a bad breath. So it doesn't matter if the movie theater loses money or not, as long as the property can increase in value, it is enough.
Now happens to be the beginning of the skyrocketing real estate market in Hong Kong, and the lucky and invincible little fragrant pig should be able to enjoy a wave of dividends, right?
"Ann, la, a! Isn't it the Wild Mountain Convergence model? Huang Jiaojiao understands in seconds.
In the wild mountain convergence model, the two male and female mothers buy real estate and then rent it to their own company. Anyway, no matter how the company operates, the two males and mothers will always ensure income in drought and flood.
And there is a tacit understanding between the two that the real estate in Hong Kong is basically purchased by Huang Jiaojiao, and the real estate in the mainland is the responsibility of Li Yuan. As for the rest of the world? I haven't thought about going out yet.
However, when it comes to chartering a wife, Huang Jiaojiao is also interested: "Xiao Yuanzi, let me ask my eldest brother, there seems to be such a place at home." The fourth or fifth floor of the store? It's not easy to sell to the outside world, and if it's low and reluctant, it's better to give me a discount. Anyway, give them money in ten or eight years! Hee-hee. β
βοΌβ
"What a disappointment! Yongliang's hard-earned extra money was not enough in a blink of an eye. Thirty cinemasββ! β
"Lie down! Are you really thirty? β
"No matter how many there are, then they have to come one by one." Huang Jiaojiao was full of complaints, "Anyway, it's too late before the end of the year, so let's open one or two at most." Eh, Xiao Yuanzi, I want to ask you something, why didn't you go to the Yindu Organization in the capital? β
"Huh?" was reminded like this, Li Yuan reluctantly woke up to the fact that there is such a large state-owned factory in Hong Kong. It's rare for the eldest lady to have a reliable idea, huh? "Hehe, I'll find it right away."
"Have you forgotten that it's not me who wants to talk about you, you just don't feel at ease!"
"Meow!"
"Okay, okay! Find it right away, find it right away. β
"Also, my film finally went to the Cannes Film Festival, and you played as a director yourself? Do you want me to go to the capital to stand for you? A hundred million dollars? Hum! My little edge is so big! β
"Huh." The eldest lady should have reached her menstrual period again, and a nameless fire was launched everywhere.
"Also, what's going on with that Xiong Qi? How does he spend money in Africa? β
"What's wrong with Old Man Bear?"
"He faxed a plan for what to do with the farm. I don't understand the plan, I just know that he wants money to die! β
Li Yuan explained with a smile: "I know about this. Mr. Xiong is very experienced in this area. It's all about infrastructure so that the farm can add value. Then we can sell it. β
In the end, Li Yuan asked casually: "How much did he spend?" β
"In just a few days, he spent more than 4 million!"
it! Li Yuan was taken aback. After hesitating for a few seconds, Li Yuan still decided to employ people. This old man shouldn't be some messy person: "Let's support him!" If it is not more than $1 million, we choose to continue to support him. According to him, if the African Farm Project is fully developed, it can bring no less than 10 million yuan of output value every year. β
"Can it really work?" Huang Jiaojiao's face changed very quickly, "I almost forgot that I still have a small farm in Australia." Last year, the management company sent me a report, and it seems that I lost money. Can you ask the old man to take a look too? β
"You know you forgot?"
"Hee-hee-hee."
"Also, what about the art film we invested in?"
"What art film? Didn't you snatch it to be a director? β
"It's not this one, the one that your friend pulled to invest in before, and we invested 200,000 yuan each?"
"Oh! Come to think of it. Later it seems to be ...... Shall we have a meal? Eat and eat ....... β
"You loser, I haven't even eaten."
"Hee-hee. Ann, la, la. Xiao Yuanzi, how do I feel that something is wrong? Just do one thing, and there will be more and more messy things? β
"Do you want to eat an egg and end up building a chicken farm yourself?"
"Yes, yes, that's what it feels like."
In fact, Li Yuan had already discovered this problem. Due to the uneven economic development, there are too many categories missing, and many upstream and downstream industries need to be built by themselves.
For example, in the aquaculture industry, there are no water dispensers at all? I can only build a water dispenser factory by myself.
"Xiao Yuanzi, in fact, this palace doesn't want to be so tired! I'm going to take Xiaotuanzi for beauty treatment. Huang Jiaojiao began to be coquettish in a coquettish voice.
"Meow?"
Li Yuan scolded with a smile: "With your character, you want everything, how can you not lack money?" Unless we have a bank in our house. β
"You have to take care of it!" Huang Jiaojiao suddenly smiled and said, "Hehe, Xiao Yuanzi, do you remember that Brother Keqin?" β
"Remember, isn't that the one who knows everything?"
"Nasty. But the Chinkoto man asked me if we were interested in his maritime loans. β
"Why do you ask us?" Li Yuan almost didn't laugh, this is too ridiculous, right?
"Xiao Yuanzi, don't underestimate this palace. Isn't there a listed company in this palace now? The price is HK$380 million. We gritted our teeth and were still able to buy it. β
"Why do you buy it home? Is it to be played? Li Yuan scoffed.
As long as it is a bank or other financial institution, the most important thing must be reputation. However, the credibility of the maritime loan has become a huge negative number, and I don't know how much effort to restore.
As the two mothers of Buddhism, Li Yuan and Huang Jiaojiao will definitely not touch those troubles.
Huang Jiaojiao also smiled: "I didn't think about buying it?" It's just a lot of fun......"
Of course, the eldest lady also understands this truth, which is nothing more than the latest gossip. How could a woman not like to gossip?
So in the sound of "chirping", Li Yuan learned about some follow-ups to the maritime loan incident.
Although the illegal funds of several banks, such as maritime loans, are as high as more than 4 billion US dollars, those are not bank money. Therefore, apart from the fines imposed by the financial regulators, there is actually no loss of the bank's own funds.
To put it bluntly, maritime loans are using those huge amounts of black money and gray money to achieve rapid development. In their own operations, the financial situation is still relatively healthy.
Don't say it, Cao Keqin is still a fucking talent. If this continues, perhaps the maritime loan will be slowly laundered, and it may be able to develop into a large international bank.
However, it is too late to say anything. The maritime loan has entered bankruptcy liquidation procedures, and the assets of the bank have been entrusted to the British government in Hong Kong.
There is no doubt that although someone has been found to be guilty, Cao Keqin, the major shareholder, has lost all the shares of the bank, and it is impossible for him to get a single mosquito money from the bank.
Of course, rich people like this, they must have hidden quite a few assets overseas. Hong Kong will definitely not be able to get mixed up, and even doing business will become unlikely. But immigrating overseas to become a wealthy apartment? It can still be done.
But now the maritime loan incident is not over? At the very least, all the money in the depositor's account should be settled, right? Therefore, according to the court order, Cao Keqin and his entire family were restricted from leaving the country.
It's a difficult day. If it's ugly, maybe you'll be beaten when you go out? No one can figure out how many depositors in Hong Kong have been harmed by maritime loans.
On the other hand, the British government in Hong Kong is also a headache for such a hot potato.
Fakyu! It's going to be ninety-seven soon, and you guys still have nothing to do? We want to make one last deal in Hong Kong and then go back to the UK for a good meal. I didn't expect a maritime loan incident? Let our noble English lord wipe your ass for you?
Fakyu! Is there a mistake? When we're toilet paper, huh?
In the end, both sides want to solve this matter as soon as possible, and the best way is nothing more than to find a pick-up man!
But in such a situation, who would want to be this pick-up man? So Cao Keqin rushed to the doctor when he was sick, and he didn't even let Huang Jiaojiao go?
Li Yuan listened interestingly: "Jiaojiao, in fact, you are a banker, that is also very good?" I think you know everything? β
Huang Jiaojiao's smiling flowers trembled: "You don't come!" Don't talk about it, I'll take Xiaotuanzi to the beauty. β
"Meow! Meow Meow Meow ββ! β
"Baby, don't run around! Mommy will clean you up beautifully! β
"Meowββ! β¦β¦β
In the microphone, there was a tear-jerking scream from Xiao Tuanzi......
