Novan's business in the imperial capital is very good.
This time, Zi Ying'er will continue to be the spokesperson, and several veteran actors such as Hou Jian and Chen Songbai also got involved, making it very popular.
Of course, most of the credit must go to Zi Yinger.
In less than a month after opening, one hundred branches brought in profits of hundreds of millions. In addition, membership cards were sold for another two to three hundred million, almost all of the principal was recovered.
According to the current business trend, all shareholders of Novin will be able to receive a large sum of money at the end of the year, even more generous than the store on the Binhai side.
Ye Fan had to marvel at the effectiveness of idols.
Because of the celebrities and actors who have stakes in the store, they will sit in the store from time to time, attracting fans and customers to come in and order food.
Also, Novan was responsible for all the dessert supplies for the crew they participated in.
You know, those celebrities don't save money for the crew, they all want top-notch luxurious meals.
Some orders cost thousands of dollars per order.
The pastries they requested were all made from top-quality ingredients, including lobster, abalone, bird's nest, ginseng, deer antlers, everything good.
Of course, these are special meals and are different from those sold in stores.
In addition, those actors also contacted business friends who opened factories and companies, and they all got pastries from Novo.
It can be said that the market in the imperial capital was almost completely eaten up by Novan overnight.
Novan became an instant success and also brought along the surrounding shops.
Some shopping malls where branches are located have specifically reduced or exempted Novan's rent, and some mall owners are even willing to pay Novan to open a store there.
When Ye Fan heard these things, he smiled bitterly.
Since when did business become so easy?
"Ye Fan, our Nuofan is completely popular in the imperial capital!
In just one month, it has become a check-in spot for almost all young tourists from out of town, and many people come here because of it!
Oh my god, in just one month, we made two to three hundred million!"
Zi Ying'er saw Nuofan's monthly statement not long ago and immediately called Ye Fan to tell Ye Fan the good news.
"Ahem, Ying'er, pay attention to your image! You are a goddess in full name. If others see you talking on the phone while crying, you will be on the front page tomorrow!" Ye Fan laughed.
"Nonsense, I don't have anyone here!" Zi Ying'er snorted angrily, but it was quickly replaced by joy.
"Don't think so beautifully. I also read the report. Nearly 200 million of them are membership card charges. They are not given to us for free. In the future, when they come to the store to consume, you don't have to spend any money, you know?"
Ye Fan stretched out and said: "This is how it is when a new store opens. From now on, it will slowly get back on track. By then, it will make tens of millions a month. Just smile to yourself!"
With one hundred stores, one store can make an average profit of 4 to 50 million yuan a month, which is already very scary.
As a result, the annual profit will be several hundred million higher.
Zi Ying'er, Chen Songbai, and Hou Jian, seven or eight celebrities, accounted for 30% of the shares. Among them, Zi Ying'er took 10%, and the other 20% was divided equally among the others.
If you calculate it this way, Chen Songbai and the others can each earn more than 10 million a year, which is not much worse than when they work hard to act.
Zi Ying'er's income is much higher than theirs. Various endorsements and film remuneration can amount to tens of millions.
Although the dividends given to her by Novan were not that terrifying, they were similar.
No one in this world doesn't like money, even the goddess of the world is no exception.
Ye Fan listened to her excited talk for more than half an hour before she stopped, and his ears almost became calluses.
"By the way, Zi Ying'er, will our movie be released soon?" Ye Fan changed the topic.
"Well, it's the 1st of next month." Zi Ying'er covered her mouth and smiled, "You didn't come to the premiere of 'Gu Xia', and you didn't come to the press conference and promotion.
Mr. Zhang and Director Liu have scolded you so many times in private!"
"Haha, I'm not interested in those things. I've been absent all the time. They deserve to scold me." Ye Fan said haha, "It will be released on the 1st of next month, so it will be next Friday!"
"Well, it's just in time for the weekend release." Zi Yinger was a little excited again, "Ye Fan, do you know what the current box office is for "The Ancient Hero"?"
"I'm not interested. I only care about how much money I can get in the end." Ye Fan shook his head.
"..." Zi Ying'er opened her mouth and said angrily: "The reservation we just opened this week has already exceeded 100 million! After it is released, the minimum guarantee is 1 billion!"
"One billion?" Ye Fan frowned, "How much can I share?"
"You hold a large share, and you will probably get two to three billion in the end!" Zi Ying'er lamented, "Ye Fan, I found that you are an investment genius! How do you know that the movie "The Ancient Hero" can survive?"
"This..." When Ye Fan first heard about one billion, he pretended to be calm on the surface, but in fact he was already secretly stunned.
The original estimate was three to four hundred million. If I share 100 million, I can smile crookedly.
I didn’t expect Zi Ying’er’s estimate to be so high!
Sent, Sent!
Ye Fan has not cared about making money for a long time, but the money has come to him on its own.
As the saying goes, the rich will only get richer!
I remember when I first came to this world, even a meal was a problem. Who would have thought that in such a short period of time, my fortune would turn around and I would earn money that others would never dare to dream of!
Apart from describing him as a business wizard, Ye Fan really can't find any other words.
Zi Ying'er listened to Ye Fan's hesitation and was too lazy to argue with him, and said: "Okay, I won't tell you anymore, I'm going to put on makeup, and I have a business performance to attend later."
"Well, you are busy, you are busy." Ye Fan laughed loudly: "I will book tickets later and book the whole show to support our "Ancient Xia"!"
"Big boss, you only booked one show?" Zi Ying'er covered her mouth and giggled, "With your worth, if you don't book a hundred shows, you have to book eight out of ten, right?"
"Okay, okay, then I'll book a few more shows and invite all our employees in Novo-Maritime to watch them." Ye Fan waved his hand indifferently.
The two joked for a while and hung up the phone.
Dong Yuejun and Li Ruoxin sat cross-legged opposite him.
Li Ruoxin stopped practicing and asked curiously: "Brother Ye, I suddenly heard that you will be participating in a movie next year and it will be released soon, right?"
Dong Yuejun was stunned, "Ye Fan, are you going to act in a movie?"
"That's right, didn't you hear? The recently very popular "Gu Xia" is starring me and Zi Ying'er!" Ye Fan said with a smile.
Recently, various software recommendations are promoting "Gu Xia". Even when you open Penguin News, the first page is the page of "Gu Xia".
Therefore, "The Ancient Hero" has become the hottest topic in the summer season, and its mysterious male lead has been wildly speculated by various celebrities.
Dong Yuejun and Li Ruoxin also like to watch movies, so they pay more attention to this aspect.
Li Ruoxin knew that Ye Fan had filmed the movie, but she didn't know that he was actually the starring role in "The Ancient Hero"!
Suddenly, the woman's red lips opened in shock, and her eyes sparkled.
"Brother Ye, you...are you really the star of "The Ancient Hero"?"
"Ye Fan, are you sure you're not fooling us?"
Ye Fan shook his finger, "If it's fake, I'll guarantee it! I'm going to call Lei Jun and ask him to guarantee ten performances of "The Ancient Hero", and invite all the employees of Novan to watch it...
Wait, ten games may not be enough, so let him arrange twenty games to be prepared!"
Novan has 500 employees, and if you include family and friends, the number will be doubled no matter what.
No more is enough. The company is not a charitable organization and cannot provide unlimited benefits to employees.
"Brother Ye, did you really act in "The Ancient Hero"?" Li Ruoxin continued to ask.
"It's true!" Ye Fan shook his head with a wry smile, rummaged through the cabinets to find his actor's card and contract, and threw them in front of the two women, "See for yourselves!"
Then, he took out his mobile phone and found many photos of himself in costume with extras and young actors.
This time, Dong Yuejun and Li Ruoxin were finally convinced.
Dong Yuejun turned his head, took out his mobile phone and sent a group message, telling his classmates and friends that he wanted to book a movie theater for everyone.
Li Ruoxin didn't rest and called Xiaojuan to tell her the good news.
When Xiaojuan heard that Ye Fan was the male lead in the upcoming hit movie "The Ancient Hero", her screams directly pierced the microphone.
She is a shareholder of Novin, so she naturally knows that the company has cooperation with "Gu Xia".
It's just that Lei Jun is in charge of this matter, and she has no right to interfere.
Later, Novan was preparing to expand the store, and she almost forgot about it.
She didn't think of it until recently when the crew of "The Ancient Hero" was promoting it all over the world.
But the male lead of "The Ancient Hero" has always been a mystery, and no one knows his identity.
The person in charge of the production team seemed to have made an agreement and did not disclose any of this, treating it as a gimmick to sell the goods, leaving fans outside to speculate.
"Ye Fan, Xiaojuan wants to talk to you." Li Ruoxin smiled sweetly and handed the phone to Ye Fan.
"No answer!" Ye Fan was too lazy to complain, "Let Xiaojuan be honest and stop talking nonsense!"
"Brother Ye, are you still shy?" Li Ruoxin chuckled, held up the phone and walked back to the bedroom to continue chatting.
At this moment, Ye Fan's cell phone suddenly rang. He picked it up and saw that it was Lei Jun calling.
Hey, say Cao Cao, Cao Cao will be here!
Just now, Ye Fan wanted Lei Jun to book 20 movie performances, but before the call came through, he actually took the initiative to call.
The legendary telepathy?
Ye Fan answered the phone with a smile and said: "Lei Jun, I was just looking for you..."
"Ye Fan...cough cough cough, stop talking nonsense, hurry up...come to the imperial capital...all of our Nuofan branches...have been smashed!"
Lei Jun's voice was very weak, his words were choppy, and he kept coughing.
Ye Fan's brows suddenly condensed, "What's going on?"
"I...I couldn't explain clearly on the phone. I am...now I am on my way to the hospital with Lao Yuan and Murong..."
As Lei Jun was talking, he suddenly made a "puff" sound.
After a while, he whispered: "Don't... don't tell Bingbing about this!"
"I understand, please wait for me!" Ye Fan didn't ask any more questions and stood up with a sullen face.
Seeing that Ye Fan's face was very ugly, Dong Yuejun quickly put down his phone and asked, "Ye Fan, what's wrong?"
"I'm at the airport now. You can help me book a plane ticket to the imperial capital! You and Xiao Li practice on your own these days. Don't go out unless you have nothing to do."
After saying that, Ye Fan returned to the room, packed a few pieces of clothing into his backpack, and walked quickly outside.
