Chapter 1001 Data and things other than data
Regarding the Deep Space Company’s promotion of reading, in November, UNESCO’s official account on the Deep Space Tribe posted a post, highly praising the Deep Space Company’s efforts in promoting more people to read and write.
effort.
The most important thing is that Deep Space Company not only promotes, but also distributes books to poor areas for free, and it is not limited to China.
However, some people question Deep Space Company, because the books they promote and give away are all signed with Deep Space Company, and they have selfish motives. Deep Space Company does not care about this kind of remarks, not only do they promote books that are signed with Deep Space Company,
Signed books, and the proportion of books written by Chinese authors is obviously higher.
Linda looked at Louis Koo and Aniston who appeared in the live broadcast, and suddenly said: "Didn't Louis Koo and Jennifer make a movie? Why hasn't it been released yet? I heard about it last year."
Serena thought for a while and said, "You are talking about "Source Code", the script is written by YU. I heard it will be released this year, and "Pirates of the Caribbean", there are many deep space movies this year
Movies, including "Spider-Man"."
Linda nodded, looked at the picture on the TV, and said, "It looks like Gu and Aniston are quite a couple. I hope they can have more collaborations."
"Why didn't the heroine of "One Day in a Dream" come? I thought she would walk the red carpet with Gu."
Linda shook her head, "I don't know. I heard that the heroine is a student of YU. She will definitely come to an occasion like today."
"Does YU still have classes for students now?" Serena asked.
Linda shook her head again and said, "I don't know, he should still be there. Anyway, Cheng must be teaching students every day. I pay more attention to Cheng's activities."
"That's right, Jay Chou said last time that he sometimes goes to Cheng for lessons. I saw that he posted photos of Cheng's piano room on his blog before."
"Wow, Jay Chou's piano is so cool. Did he learn it from Cheng?"
"No, Jay seems to be learning pop singing from her...but Jay's piano is really cool. You can see his performance live in this concert."
Speaking of the concert, Linda's eyes lit up, "I'm really looking forward to it. I will also get a signed album by then."
Serena has a signed album by Jay Chou, and Linda has always been very envious of it.
In two weeks, Jay Chou's global concert tour will come to London. The two of them started to grab tickets very early and even got the tickets, so they were waiting for him to come.
"Haha, signed albums are not so easy to come by. Normally, you don't have the chance to get signed albums when you go to a concert." Serena laughed, "It's a pity that I couldn't go to the Deep Space Annual Conference this year. I heard that every year there is a music theme day.
They will sign a lot of albums. Many people in our Dongdong group got their signed albums during last year’s concert. Jay worked particularly hard on the music theme day, even more than when he held autograph meetings in other cities.
We work harder and even autographs on the music theme day are free."
Jay Chou's fans have a special organization called the Jay Chou Global Fans Association. They also have a branch here in London, and Serena joined it. They also have many Dongdong groups, and they will be notified in the group when there are any activities.
At first, Serena thought that this global fan club was just for everyone to discuss Jay Chou in the group. Later, she discovered that this organization was more powerful than she imagined. The organizational structure was very strict, and one of their branches could even organize some large-scale activities.
For example, the global concert tour will be held in two weeks. When the concert was first scheduled, the group began to organize the purchase of concert tickets, and two months ago, preparations for airport pick-up and other matters were started.
Moreover, their branch can still get in touch with Jay Chou himself and can get some signed albums, signed posters and even signed T-shirts.
Even recently, the branch president and others have been planning whether they can discuss with Jay Chou to leave an extra half day after the concert to hold a book signing in London.

After the red carpet ended, the live broadcast camera moved to the auditorium, where most of the guests had already taken their seats.
This year's warm-up program is relatively long, totaling more than 40 minutes. Except for a few stage plays, the rest are songs and dances, including songs from "Shrek", "Harry Potter" and "Lord of the Rings"
.
After the warm-up program ended, special guests from all walks of life took the stage to speak, including leaders of the Olympic Organizing Committee and the Writers Association, as well as representatives of some major partners, such as Disney and Warner.
The speeches of these people were not long, ranging from one minute to three minutes, and the process ended in more than thirty minutes.
After all the special guests came on stage and finished speaking, it was time for the last part of the annual meeting. Jimmy and Yu Dong were about to take the stage to speak.
Although the previous song and dance performances were very nice, whether they were ordinary viewers watching the live broadcast or guests coming to the scene, this part was what everyone was looking forward to the most.
Every year at this session, Jimmy and Yu Dong will give everyone some surprises, especially the content of Yu Dong's speech, which can very well represent the development direction of the Deep Space Company in the next year.
Jimmy is wearing a red Tang suit again this year, but it is different from previous years. Today's Tang suit has many small characters on it. It is hard to see clearly from a distance, but up close you can see that those are the characters "囍".
However, these characters "囍" do not look particularly conspicuous when placed on this red Tang suit. Even if others notice it, they probably will not think that he is getting married.
Jimmy is a little thinner this year than last year, and the belly that used to grow has gone down. I heard that Britney has such a result because she watches him exercise every day.
I have to say that love can really nourish people, especially when the partner is still young. Jimmy looks much more energetic now than before, and he looks like a young man in his thirties.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! After taking the stage, Jimmy said with a smile, "It's time to hand in homework again. At this time every year, I am both happy and nervous. First of all, I want to talk about our company.
In terms of performance in the book market, compared with 2000, our total sales revenue in the book market increased by eight percentage points in 2001, totaling 15.74 billion yuan."
As soon as this number came out, there was a burst of discussion.
Not only at the scene, but also from the audience watching the live broadcast in front of TVs and computers, the reaction was quite intense.
[15.7 billion RMB, who can tell me how much it is in U.S. dollars?]
[The current USD/CNY ratio seems to be 1:8, which is about 2 billion U.S. dollars.]
[How is this result? I don’t know much about the book market.]
[Let me tell you this, the annual report released by Bestaman Group in the middle of last year showed that the total sales revenue of their Random House in the previous year was 1.65 billion U.S. dollars, and Deep Space Company was even more than them.
Several hundred million more dollars.]
[Oh, I’ve heard of Random House. I heard it’s pretty awesome.]
[So, Deep Space is already better than Random House?]
[It’s not easy to compare like this, and Deep Space Company is not comparing itself to Random House, but to the Bestaman Group.]
[It’s hard to compare death to death. Just talking about books, Deep Space Company does a more comprehensive job, unlike Random House, which mainly deals in publishing.]
[Indeed, there are many authors under Deep Space Company whose books are not published by themselves, but the sales are also included in the total sales. It is mainly due to algorithm problems. For these books, they only take 5% to 100%.
Twenty... The more famous the author, the lower the commission, so the profit of this one should not be as good as Random House.】
[There will be more and more. Their copyright is stronger than Random House, and their growth rate will definitely be faster than Random House.]
[It’s like this. Don’t look at two billion US dollars a year. In a few years, I wouldn’t be surprised if this number reaches five billion, or even ten billion.]
[Really, how much sales does YU alone contribute each year? 】
[Last year, YU alone seemed to have sold more than 100 million copies, with sales of several hundred million US dollars.]
Jimmy stood on the stage, smiled, and continued: "Sixty-five percent of the share is in North America. The second largest market is composed of the United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa, with a share of 15%.
Sales in Germany, Austria and Switzerland accounted for 8%, sales in Spanish accounted for 5%, sales in China accounted for 1%, and others accounted for 1.3%. This data is actually from July 2000
From June 1st to June 30th, 2001, from 2001 to now, in more than half a year, this data has improved a lot, and it is expected that the growth rate in the new year will exceed ten percentage points."
"There must be a reason for the improvement in data. This has to be said about the film and television industry. As everyone knows, we have produced many movies this year, and some of them have performed quite well at the box office. Also because of the movies
The box office was a hit, which led to huge sales of the book."
Hearing what Jimmy said, the guests in the audience burst into laughter. Everyone knew that Jimmy seemed humble, but in fact he was pretending.
This year, the box office performance of the films produced by Deep Space Company was not only good, but also sky-high.
"This year, our company has participated in the production and production of a total of 23 movies. As of yesterday, the total box office was US$3.1 billion."
Many people were very surprised when they heard that Deep Space participated in the production and production of 23 movies this year, because they only knew about a few of them.
In fact, Deep Space Company produces many movies every year, but many niche films are not known to the public. Everyone only knows that those movies with incredible box office are produced by Deep Space Company.
In fact, this is the case for every major film company, such as Warner. They produce forty or fifty movies every year, but only four or five are known to the public at most.
At this time, the Internet was noisy again, and many people were asking what the concept of 3.1 billion U.S. dollars was.
[Thirty-one billion U.S. dollars, no need to ask, it will basically dominate this year.]
[The global film market last year was more than 1.4 billion U.S. dollars, and Deep Space Film and Television alone accounted for more than 20%.]
[Actually, it’s nothing. Last year we had similar results. In the past two years, Deep Space Company has been a bit overbearing.]
[Last year, "The Martian" alone had a revenue of 1.56 billion US dollars. Of course, their box office for the whole year was high. 】
[It might be even higher next year, let’s wait and see.]
[Look at it this way, "Titanic" is really great, one movie accounted for one-eighth of the total box office.]
[Not only that, when "Titanic" was released, the global film market did not have more than 14 billion US dollars, it was less. 】
[Deep Space Film and Television earns one billion U.S. dollars every year.]
[There must be, this is just the box office, there are other incomes, such as selling video tapes, CDs, etc.]
[It’s too exaggerated. Deep Space Books and Deep Space Films are simply money-making machines.]
[You are still too young. In a few years, I am afraid that books and movies will be reduced to a small section of deep space. At least in terms of profitability, they will definitely not be as good as the other sections.]
[In a few years, I feel that the game section of Deep Space Company is already more profitable than the book section.]
[It’s hard to say profit, but the revenue of the game sector should exceed that of the book sector. One "Plants vs. Zombies" seems to have sold more than 120 million in sales. The recently released "Minecraft" has only a few
Oh my god, sales are in the tens of millions.】
[I think you are saying the opposite. The revenue of the game section may not be as good as that of the book section, but the profit is definitely higher. The game is a huge profit, okay? How much money can Deep Space Company make from a book? In addition to the platform share, the rest of the game is
Those who place bets are pure profits.]
[Fart, game development doesn’t cost money.]
[How much is game development worth?]
[Don’t be ridiculous, game development is expensive. For example, “Plants vs. Zombies” seems to have to pay YU copyright fees because he participated in the design. 】
[This is true. There are several games in Deep Space that require YU to pay. It can be said that YU can live happily for the rest of his life just by relying on these games.]
[What are you thinking, YU needs to make a living from these games? Which of his books can’t make him happy for a lifetime? And he is a shareholder of Deep Space.]
[Compared to the game section, I am still more optimistic about Dongdong, Deep Space Tribe and PayPal, which will be the tools to make money in the future. 】
[It goes without saying that Dongdong is already the instant messaging software with the most users in the world. This software alone can already dominate the gaming sector, and there is no need for Deep Space Tribe and PayPal to take action.]
[The Internet industry still has risks. From my perspective, BenQ Dentsu has the best prospects. How well will BenQ mobile phones sell?]
[Doesn’t it mean that Base Mobile is still losing money?]
[Loss is a loss, prospect is a prospect, loss is due to high investment, sooner or later there will be a harvest. 】
…
After Jimmy finished talking about movies, he started talking about TV series, variety shows and music...
After explaining all the business, he said with a smile, "I wanted to list less boring data before, but later I found that it is simpler and more direct to list the data. But there are many things that cannot be reflected in the data.
