672 【Cooperation】
Ye Jin was somewhat interested in Lei Juetian's recruitment.
On the one hand, Lei Juetian's theater chain has just been established and needs to recruit capable production companies to fill the schedule, so the conditions will definitely be very generous and there are advantages to take advantage.
On the one hand, Jiahe has been taking advantage of the theaters in the past two years. For example, a movie actually earns 5 million Hong Kong dollars in the box office, and if it steals and hides it, it may charge 3 million Hong Kong dollars. Of which 2 million Hong Kong dollars are quietly narrowed by it.
This is not new in the film industry. In the past life, all cinema ticket sales were connected to the Internet, and all viewers brought mobile phones to expose scandals at any time. They still couldn't stop cinema from secretly hiding box office, let alone such a backward 1980s.
According to Ye Jin's estimate, from 1975 to now, in the six years, the box office that Jiahe concealed was combined is probably 200 million to 300 million Hong Kong dollars.
In addition, Jiahe is also responsible for the overseas distribution of Myth Pictures, and inevitably takes the opportunity to make a living. Therefore, Jiahe takes about 400 million Hong Kong dollars from Myth Pictures.
Ye Jin knew this very well, but because of his face, he didn't break up with it. But he couldn't always eat it. It was time to hit Jiahe, so as not to think that he would definitely eat it.
"Go and talk to Mr. Lei. If he has good conditions, we can work with him in depth." Ye Jin said to Guo Zhenghong with a smile.
"Will Jiahe have any objections?" Guo Zhenghong said worriedly.
"Of course Jiahe will have opinions, but it doesn't matter. Although the company is half of the company, I have a little advantage and have the dominance. I have the right to decide who to cooperate with." Ye Jin waved his hand.
When he first established the company, Ye Jin became more cautious, accounting for 51% of the shares, and 2% more than Jiahe. This ensured his control over the company.
In addition, Ye Jin's strength is far better than Jiahe, so if he wants to cooperate with Lei Juetian, then Jiahe cannot object. Its opposition has no effect.
Seeing that Ye Jin had already thought it through, Guo Zhenghong nodded, "Mr. Ye, I know what to do."
"Um."
...
Ye Jin stayed at Myth Film for a long time, checked the company's accounts, listened to reports from various departments, and gave some new instructions.
Myth Films made a lot of money last year, producing a total of seven movies, two of which had a box office of over 10 million Hong Kong dollars. In addition, three movies had a box office of over 5 million Hong Kong dollars. The remaining two movies had a box office of over 3 million Hong Kong dollars, which was still profitable.
In addition to the revenue from overseas issuances, as well as the share of celebrity endorsements, the sales of video tapes, etc. Last year, Myth Film's revenue was 125 million Hong Kong dollars and its net profit was about 45 million Hong Kong dollars, which was quite good.
Jiahe also has eight similar satellite companies, none of which can keep up with the revenue of Myth Film. In fact, Myth Film has contributed more than half of Jiahe's revenue over the years, so Myth Film can be said to be crucial to Jiahe.
Ye Jin still hopes to make more movies with further instructions from the company. Seven movies a year are actually not many for a mature film company.
For example, Xiao made fifteen movies last year, twelve movies in 1980s, and sixteen movies in 1979...
Jiahe's parent company and major satellite companies produce about fifteen movies in a year. Because only with such output can one theater chain be able to support a theater.
If Myth Film Cooperates with Lei Juetian, it is necessary to increase production. If it wants to increase production, the most important thing is not capital, but talent. Talent is rare. Only first-class talents can produce first-class movies and make a lot of money.
"Increase the efforts to recruit talents and strive to achieve a production of ten units this year." Ye Jin instructed Guo Zhenghong, "We have both reputation and funds, and so many stars. It should not be difficult to increase production."
"Yes, Mr. Ye." Guo Zhenghong nodded.
In fact, it is not difficult to increase production. The key is that there is insufficient talent reserves. If you rashly increase production, the quality and profit of the film will not be guaranteed. At that time, losses may occur.
Therefore, Guo Zhenghong works with the mentality of not seeking nothing but seeking nothing, and dare not take risks. This is also one of the reasons why Myth Film makes a lot of profits every year, but its output does not increase.
...
After leaving Myth Films, Ye Jin met Luo Kangrui again.
"Mr. Ye, you are finally back." Luo Kangrui was very excited when he saw Ye Jin.
He can see that shorting Xiangjiang economy can make a lot of money. But he doesn’t have much money, and if he shorts himself, he can’t suppress the market at all.
But Ye Jin is different. He has more money in his hands, which is enough to conquer the market. At that time, when the whole Hong Kong economy collapses, he can make a fortune.
"Don't worry." Ye Jin waved his hand and smiled, "The golden hairpin fell into the well, it's yours. It's yours. It's yours that you should make money, and it will never slip away. It's not that you should make money, and you can lose it even if you get it."
"Your mentality is really open-minded." Luo Kangrui nodded with a smile when he heard this, "Mr. Ye, according to your opinion, when will our plan be carried out?"
"In the end of February and early March, the Hong Kong government will release the economic data for the month. In my opinion, the numbers should not be very good." Ye Jin smiled, "At that time, this negative news will definitely affect the market. We will take the opportunity to disperse these materials and ensure that we can get twice the result with half the effort."
After 1982, Xiangjiang's economy has shown signs of shrinking. The export trade volume in January has dropped significantly compared with the same period last year.
The reason is that the global economy is stagnant and the rise of international trade protectionism has caused the export-oriented Xiangjiang economy to face great difficulties.
However, although the recession in Hong Kong has already shown signs in January, January is the Spring Festival, and everyone is busy visiting relatives and friends, so they are not alert to this situation.
However, after February, everyone was relieved, and it was difficult not to notice the changes in the economic situation in Xiangjiang at this time. This is also the reason why Ye Jin was going to take action in early March.
Hearing him say this, Luo Kangrui nodded, "Mr. Ye, that's what we do."
"Well, be sure to keep it confidential and don't let outsiders know." Ye Jin reminded him, "If someone hears the news and takes action before us, then we will be very passive."
"I understand this." Luo Kangrui nodded. He would not tell anyone such a good opportunity to make money, so as not to be disturbed by others.
"By the way, Mr. Ye, how much money do you bring in total this time?" he asked curiously again.
"Four billion US dollars, and there are still two billion reserve funds." Ye Jin smiled.
In addition to selling stocks and borrowing from the company, he also pledged cus computer stocks. However, he still has 57% of Fox Group stocks in his hands. If he wants to pledge a loan, 2 billion US dollars will not be a problem.
When Luo Kangrui heard this, he was impressed. He has been working hard to raise funds in the past few months, but he has borrowed from the east and the west, and has only raised 400 million Hong Kong dollars in total.
Ye Jin's capital is one hundred times that of his, which is really exaggerated.
