Chapter 16 An Invitation Letter

Section 16 An invitation letter

After spending three months of free and happy days in the United States, Tang Feng finally returned to Beijing in early March 2011.

During his two months of leisure and happiness, Liu Chengyuan, Mu Tianyang and others worked hard and finally adjusted the relationship between the entire Shengtang enterprise.

The businesses of the four major groups under the entire Shengtang Enterprise were clearly defined, and the business restructuring between the groups was basically completed.

The First Group, Shengtang Cultural Chain Group, the group president Li Yun, mainly engaged in bookstore rental business, publishing business, and book distribution business. The subsidiaries include the world's largest cultural rental chain store, Shengtang Cultural Production Chain Rental Store, and the world's largest publishing company Random Bookstore. The market value of the group is US$62.4 billion.

The Second Group, Shengtang Film and Television Production Group, the group president Mo Qingyun, mainly engaged in film production and distribution, television and radio program production, film and television advertising and other businesses. The company under its leadership includes the famous 21st Century Film Company, Fengran Film and Television, Juntang Enterprise and other professional production companies. The market value of the group is US$34.1 billion.

The third group, Shengtang Multimedia Communication Group, the group president Mu Tianyang, mainly operates TV stations, radio stations, and multimedia technology. Its companies include China International TV, British Land Radio, and the foreign-funded TV station Star TV, which was successfully established in China, second only to International TV, and the world-famous Collins Multimedia Information Company. The company's market value is US$36.4 billion.

The Fourth Group, formerly known as News Media Group, is now renamed Shengtang Newspaper Group. Liu Chengyuan, the president of the group, mainly engaged in businesses including the well-known British entertainment newspaper "The British Taihe", the well-known British editorial newspaper "The Swire", and the second-ranked distribution volume in the United States. Australia's daily newspaper, the first-ranked distribution volume in Australia. In addition, a series of newspapers from China, Japan, South Korea, and Europe and the United States, totaling 42. Because many businesses were divested, the share price of Shengtang Newspaper Group fell, reaching 16 US dollars per share, with a market value of 48 billion US dollars.

After this period of restructuring, the cash flow, fixed assets, and business relationships of the four major groups have been optimized. If the Shengtang enterprise was a little fat more than three months ago, then the Shengtang enterprise is solidly strong.

The current total market value of the four major groups under Shengtang Enterprise is about 180 billion US dollars, and the cash they hold is about 40 billion US dollars. It is estimated that the revenue in 2011 will reach 40 billion to 43 billion US dollars.

Today, the prosperous Tang Dynasty enterprises are full of soldiers and food, and full of talents. Tang Feng, who has been resting for three months and has recovered his spirit, is naturally ready to do something.

The day after returning to Beijing, Tang Feng held a senior meeting of the Shengtang Enterprise. The presidents of the four major groups, Ye Huiran, the special assistant of Tang Feng, legal counsel Jiang Yuhan, public relations director Feng Na, policy consultant Chen Dahai and the heads of various departments all attended, with a total of more than 20 people.

At this meeting, Tang Feng put forward a point of view, "We have done almost everything in the Tang Dynasty. In the future, the main direction of our development will return to content production. In my opinion, in the future, all channels will have one or two overlords, while other channels will become victims. Because of the current high development of technology and the changes in people's living habits, network channels will become the main channel. In terms of depth, any website can directly hit the end user, and in terms of breadth, they can easily cover the world. Therefore, companies like ours, which focus on entities as the main business direction, must put more of our energy on content."

In view of this principle, Tang Feng asked every senior executive of the company to hand over a development report within his own authority. Of course, if it could be a report that overlooks the overall situation, it would naturally be even more welcome.

According to normal development procedures, after this meeting, the direction of Shengtang enterprises was naturally to begin to gradually tend to the operation of entertainment content. But this fact was not the case. The one that led to this deviation was March 6, the third day after Tang Feng returned to Beijing, and the invitation letter was handed over from the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television.

When Tang Feng saw this invitation, he was really shocked, "Central TV's offer invitation?"

At that time, Ye Huiran was talking to him. When she heard this, she quickly snatched the invitation letter from Tang Feng. After reading it, she couldn't believe it like Tang Feng, "Oh my God, why could that happen?"

"CCTV's stock offer?" Tang Feng looked at the invitation again and said with a smile, "Today isn't April Fool's Day, right?"

Ye Huiran shook her head, "Of course not, today is March 6th?"

Just as Tang Feng and Ye Huiran were both suspicious, the phone in his office rang. Tang Feng answered the phone, and Liu Shanyang's voice came from the other side. Tang Feng learned from Chen Dahai that Liu Shanyang had been promoted to the director of the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television.

He then said politely on the phone: "Director Liu, why do you have time to call me?"

Today's Tang Feng is no longer the Tang Feng of yesterday. He is now the second largest world-class super rich man in the world. He has ranked 28th in the power rankings of authoritative magazines, only more than 20 fewer than the Chinese President.

So, naturally, it was impossible for Liu Shanyang to speak to him like before, and his tone became much more humble, "Ah, Mr. Tang, you are back."

Tang Feng smiled and said, "Director Liu, you should call me Xiao Tang. Call Mr. Tang, it sounds strange."

Liu Shanyang smiled on the phone and thought to himself, Haha, the boy is good, he has not forgotten his roots yet, so he stopped pretending and said, "Xiao Tang, have you received the invitation we sent you?"

"Well, I received it. It was really sent by the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television?" Tang Feng said, shaking the invitation letter in his hand, "I thought someone was joking with me."

"It's not a joke, it's true." Liu Shanyang said seriously on the phone.

"How could it be? CCTV is the absolute core of Chinese media. How could such an institution be capitalized?" Tang Feng asked in confusion.

"This time, that time, today's CCTV is no longer the same as before." Liu Shanyang said this, paused, "How about this, you come to me tonight and let's talk alone. Then, we will attend the prospectus together tomorrow. What do you think?"

Tang Feng nodded quickly, "Okay, then...If you are not afraid of affecting your reputation, if you get off work, I will drive to pick you up directly."

"Okay, what's the impact of this? Tang Feng drove me to pick me up in person. This is a great honor." Liu Shanyang said with a refreshing smile on the phone.
