Chapter 32 The Concept of Wealth (make up for yesterday)
Shen Changlin also read the soft article, which was quite embarrassing.
This damn guy is so awesome!
Shen Changlin has a very clear self-perception: essentially, he is just a pig standing in the wind.
He knows a lot about investing...
Let's put it this way, the listing of Changlin Entertainment is driven by capital. Of course, Shen Changlin also wants to go public quickly so that he can fully control Miha_ to improve the company's M&A capabilities and use capital leverage instead of cash for M&A!
He only knows that he is quite rich, but he has no statistics on how much money he has...
Ten billion?
What a bullshit, tens of billions of subsidies to fight Xixi?
But everyone outside believed it!
After Ruan Wen became popular, Shen Changlin's already quiet life became even more popular.
He has now begun to receive invitations from some second-tier and higher-level female stars in the industry, and these female stars have said that they can adjust their performance plans and squeeze out schedules for him, even if they are playing a supporting role.
This is a drunkard who cares not about the wine, but about the space under the bed!
In the entertainment industry, the number of sticks is limited, but the number of butts is unlimited.
A few pokes will bring you both fame and fortune, so of course you have to rush to get pokes!
It's so fungible, and the stick doesn't have to come to you...
The key point is that he has a good reputation - he is not a loyalist...
At this stage, if you want to be in a show, you have to follow the unspoken rules. After a while, this will no longer be the case!
If you are short of money - enter the entertainment industry - go to the producer, and the producer will directly ask you for money: you have to pay money first to enter the industry, unspoken rule? I'm so embarrassed that I vomited, all I want is money - if you don't have any money, get out.
So, I chose a pair of rich second-generation people—they still want to make their debut without money?
Let me calculate an account for you:
In the capital city, it is calculated as training three times a week and attending classes for four hours at a time.
Venue fee: 200/hour, 9,600 per month, 57,600 for half a year;
Vocal music lessons: The more impressive ones cost 700/session, 33,600 per month, and 201,600 in half a year;
Dance class: 500/hour, 24,000 a month, 144,000 half a year;
Physical class: 300/hour, 14,400 per month, 86,400 for half a year.
The stated amount is already upwards of 500,000. Adding in other miscellaneous factors and local standards, and the different levels of teachers, this expense can be calculated in millions.
When it comes to the competition stage, everyone must prepare at least 2 songs and 2 sets of clothes, right?
As for song copyright, the copyright fee for less popular songs is around 80,000, while for popular ones it is around 300,000.
In addition, the cost of clothing: Let’s not talk about the high-end and customized ones, but just ordinary performance clothes. How come a set costs 1,000 yuan, right?
Do I need to put on makeup to wear clothes? The makeup fee is 5,000 yuan.
If you add in the publicity fee, for this person and that team, based on the average price of 7,000 per piece, 20 pieces will cost 140,000. After two rounds of publicity, 280,000 has gone out...
You still want to make a debut without money?
Do you think you are Cai Shukun or Yang Chaoyue? Or maybe you are Li Luxiu?
In the past, it relied on strength, but now it depends on ability...
Bringing it back, Shen Changlin simply blocked a group of people who wanted to get close to him!
Are you kidding? At this moment, you want to ruin his reputation?
…
Shen Changlin must be interviewed, "The Thieves" is still being promoted.
The next day, Shen Changlin went to CCTV's "Dialogue" to record the program according to his schedule...
It's the variety show that Han Han once appeared on...
But now it has become a stage for entrepreneurs to promote themselves.
It’s quite normal. When you invite entrepreneurs over, of course you have to listen to their boasts.
By the way, this issue of "Dialogue" has invited many people in the industry to sit in the audience...
Well, "Dialogue" focuses on discussion.
Shen Changlin arrived at the scene and found that Yu Dong, Huang Zhonglei, An Xiaofen, Wang Changtian, and Zhang Zhao were all here...
Full array!
The host is Chen Weihong.
He first asked about the reason for the project of "The Thieves" movie: "Many viewers don't understand why you want to make such a big special effects production?"
"The origin is Director Han from China Film Group Corporation..."
Shen Changlin told the story of the establishment of the "Devil Band" project again...
When it comes to interviews, the only questions you can ask are actually those, and it’s inevitable that you’ll talk a lot of nonsense.
"Can you please disclose the estimated revenue of "The Band of Thieves"?"
"Of course, domestic revenue is easy to calculate. Box office revenue accounts for 80%. According to current estimates, the box office of "The Thieves" should be around 1.5 billion. If the box office is 1.5 billion, according to the split, the revenue will be about 535 million. After deducting the cost, this drama earned about 380 million..."
"Overseas earnings... because "The Band of Thieves" was our first film to borrow a boat to go overseas, Sony Columbia directly bought it out for US$12 million. I thought I was making a profit before, but now I think it is a loss!"
"In other words, the net profit of a movie is 500 million?"
"right."
"So, making movies is really profitable?"
Shen Changlin shook his head: "Making movies is probably the riskiest investment in the world. There is a saying in the industry that nine out of ten movies will lose money... Let me give you some data. In the first seven months of 2013, there were hundreds of movies released in China. Among them, more than 200 films have a box office of less than 50 million, and 150 films have a box office of less than 5 million...only a handful of them can make money!"
"Then how do you ensure that every movie is profitable?"
Shen Changlin shrugged: "There is no guarantee... There is actually very little we can do. In addition to trying our best during production, we also need to choose a reliable team!"
“Reliable team?”
Shen Changlin pretended to be thoughtful, and then said: "Let me give you an example, "Martial Arts". Many people said that this crappy movie would cost 140 million yuan? I only know that this movie costs 6,000 yuan for a straw hat and a pair of straw sandals. From the creation From the beginning, this drama was a typical carelessness. From the producer to the director, everyone was just thinking about making money, so how could it be possible to produce a good work?"
This is CCTV!
No one can accuse Chen Kexin’s team on CCTV...
Chen Weihong quickly changed the subject: 'Do you know your worth?'
Shen Changlin shook his head: "To be honest, I know I am quite rich, but I don't know my exact net worth!"
"Is it because it's too much?"
"No, because most of them are valuations...and many of them are equity values. I don't cash out. Even if they are really worth tens of billions, they are just a pair of numbers!"
"You won't cash out?"
"I don't need to improve my life. My current living conditions are pretty good!"
This is an insinuation of Ma Yun...
Chen Weihong smiled and then asked: "Then what do you think about money?"
"I feel that wealth is not private in nature. What people have over wealth is the management rights given to them rather than ownership. Money is enough. Don't take it for granted. Once you have it, If you think like this, you are almost in trouble!"
"After the exposure of your net worth, will it have any impact on your life?"
Shen Changlin shook his head: "Not yet... I am working in Changlin Entertainment just because I like to play games, and I think the development of video game linkage is a channel for the expansion of derivatives... Apart from anything else, "Xiu Chun Dao" is my leading role The first film-game joint development work, with game revenue exceeding 400 million!"
"I invested in ByteDance because Zhang Yiming and I agree that in the mobile Internet era, algorithm recommendations can bring far more traffic than search!"
"Investing in Meituan is an additional condition for the acquisition of Meituan Movies. I am very optimistic about the future development of the online ticket purchasing platform. I think online ticket purchasing will replace traditional offline ticket purchasing in two years... When Maoyan Movies takes control With a market share of over 30%, it can be seamlessly converted into a publishing company!”
"What is your basis?"
"Which one?"
“Algorithmic recommendation brings more traffic than search?”
"...Because every time I check Weibo, I see hot searches to help me find things that interest me, instead of searching..."
“What about buying tickets online?”
"This is very simple, because the three major Internet companies BAT have entered the market, they will definitely spend money to seize the market..."
"Then why do you compete with them?"
Chapter completed!
