After Fang Jingquan sat down, Zheng Shenzhi stood up without a smile on his face.
"Chairman, colleagues, Starlight Film and Television Company shot a total of four movies and six TV series last year, and invested in five movies and two TV series."
"Thanks to the movie [Counterattack] shot by the chairman, our Starlight Film and Television Company barely completed the 500 million reserve target. In order to maintain the normal operation of the company, we did not turn over the profits......
.”
"Because it often takes a month or even more than a few months to settle the fees for movies and even TV series,..."
“We will definitely achieve great results again this year”
After Zheng Shenzhi finished his report, he looked at Gao Jin and wondered if Gao Jin was satisfied. No one else applauded for the time being.
"The Chinese film and entertainment market is particularly special, I know this."
"Have you really explored the potential of movies and TV series every step of the way?"
"If you carefully analyze the companies that have emerged in China in recent years, these companies have one thing in common, which is to break stereotypes."
"E-commerce broke the inherent layer-by-layer dealer system and emerged. Alipay and WeChat broke the monopoly channels of banks and the rise of brokerage channels."
“Master Kong has changed the packaging of instant noodles and emerged”
"Why can't film companies break the current stereotype and rise? Other film and television companies make money by making movies through gimmicks. Why can't we abandon this?"
"Why can't we really make money from high-quality movies?"
"Years ago, you submitted an analysis plan to me using the American film [Jurassic Park] as an example to analyze in detail how much money this film made."
"If you don't satisfy me, I will deduct 200,000 yuan from your year-end bonus!"
Gao Jin stared into Zheng Shenzhi's eyes and said these words. Zheng Shenzhi nodded. There was no way to refute what Gao Jin said. Zheng Shenzhi knew very well that what he did was not adequate.
For movies or TV series, if you catch the big head, the small head won't care at all.
If you don't care about one movie, you have to care about many movies and TV series, and you have to make changes.
It was Ji Xueyi's first time attending the company's annual meeting. She never expected that young man Gao Jin could be so dignified, and that so many independent general managers could be so submissive.
Zheng Shenzhi is not an ordinary person, he is definitely a big shot in the entertainment industry, a person who would shock the entertainment industry whenever he stomps his feet.
Unexpectedly, Gao Jin punished him as he asked, without giving Zheng Shenzhi any face.
Just when Ji Xueyi was thinking wildly, Gao Jin glanced at Ge Gongming. Ge Gongming knew that it was his turn and stood up directly.
"Wait a minute, you don't need to report here. You can report to my house after the meeting."
Gao Jin suddenly thought of something and stopped Ge Gongming from speaking. He waved his hand and asked Ge Gongming to sit down. There are many projects in technology companies that are not suitable for disclosure.
"The same goes for all research institutes. You don't need to report today. You can come to my house for a separate report after the meeting!" Gao Jin looked at Miao Hongfa and others and said this.
"yes!"
The seven of them, Miao Hongfa, Zachary, Ding Jiajian, Ikeda Teruo, Zhu Changbao, Ellis, and Lin Zhentang, stood up together and answered straightforwardly.
Gao Jin waved his hand and asked several people to sit down, and they all breathed a sigh of relief.
Next, Tao Zhixing, general manager of Starlight Literature Website, reported that the literary website has opened up markets in three countries this year and established branches in those countries.
Starting to export China's online articles to these countries can be regarded as finding an additional sales channel for outstanding domestic authors. Although the share is a little lower, it is still a considerable profit.
The headquarters stipulates that Starlight Literature Network needs a reserve fund of 300 million, but due to expansion, it has not achieved this goal.
Tao Zhixing also said with certainty that this year the headquarters will need to support a fund to expand the market and achieve the goal of covering the entire Southeast Asia within two years.
Gao Jin nodded and took the lead in applauding. Tao Zhixing was very self-aware and down-to-earth in his development. Gao Jin would definitely be satisfied.
It’s understandable that you don’t make money now. When all channels are opened, making money won’t be a problem at all.
After Tao Xingzhi sat down, Huang Boxun, general manager of Starlight Cinemas, stood up.
Now in the past two years, Starlight Cinemas has covered 89 cities in China, with a real estate ownership rate of 90%, making it the largest cinema chain in China.
The only problem is losses. Because of the purchase of real estate, we lost a total of 2.7 billion last year. It is expected that we will still lose money this year. We can only make profits next year.
There were not many good videos, so Huang Boxun also began to think of other ways to make the prices of various snacks and drinks the same as those in supermarkets. The profits from this part were growing slowly.
A large number of consumers have developed the habit of not bringing snacks, but buying them directly in the cinema. The prices bought in the cinema are cheap, so there is no need to buy a lot of snacks in advance and carry them around.
Cinema advertising revenue has also begun to show an increasing trend. Although the increase is not a lot, it is also slowly increasing.
Gao Jin affirmed Huang Boxun's approach and took the lead in applauding, which made Huang Boxun let out a long sigh of relief.
I feel very emotional in my heart. The chairman is wise. He knows the actual difficulties of our theater chain and does not set any unattainable goals. I just keep going.
Huang Boxun sat down, and Wei Baoling, general manager of Starlight Agency, stood up and began to report.
The agency currently has 17 first-tier artists, 69 second-tier artists, one diva, 22 singers, and 37 new-generation niche students with certain influence.
There are one hundred and forty-seven behind-the-scenes workers of various types, three senior directors, six first-level directors, and nineteen second-level directors...
Last year, we completed the reserve fund task of RMB 300 million and did not turn over any profits. The company retained a working capital of RMB 110 million for daily expenses.
"Mrs. Wei, I'll give you a special grant. You can take a month's vacation this year, and the company will sponsor you 100,000 yuan." Gao Jin said with a smile. He really didn't expect Wei Baoling to be able to bring the agency to this level. She must be rewarded.
Just fine.
"Thank you, Chairman. I will continue my efforts this year and strive to turn over profits," Wei Baoling said with a serious expression.
Gao Jin nodded and took the lead in applauding. Amidst the applause of the crowd, Wei Baoling sat down.
Merits will be rewarded and demerits will be punished. The chairman held a bowl of water very evenly, and Gao Jin did things right for the situation but not the person. Many people have come to this understanding.
Immediately afterwards, Li Xuejian, general manager of Asia Television, stood up and began to report.
Last year, ATV completed its reserve fund task and did not hand over profits. The reason for this is because it takes time to realize the investment in TV series and movies.
As long as the film library is there, profits will continue to come in every month.
At present, ATV has completed the overall relocation. The original office space has been sold to the Gao Group, and the Gao Group has been compensated for HKD 67 million to buy a piece of land in Tseung Kwan O.
At present, the construction of the new TV station has begun and is expected to be completed in November next year. The company has paid off all arrears and currently retains 170 million operating funds.
Gao Jin nodded with satisfaction. Li Xuejian was experienced and did not need Gao Jin to worry too much. In the past few years, ATV has been improving every year under the leadership of Li Xuejian.
Gao Jin took the lead in applauding, and everyone followed suit. Li Xuejian and Gao Jin looked at each other, and then slowly sat down.
Immediately afterwards, Lin Zhentang, general manager of Starlight Game Company, stood up and began to report on the status of the game company.
Last year, the game company achieved its reserve target of 300 million, and also handed over 100 million in profits to the headquarters, while retaining 140 million in funds for daily operating expenses.
The company currently operates eight games, all of which are profitable.
The large-scale online game Isekai, which has invested heavily in production, is also under intense production. Currently, Isekai is ranked second in terms of expectations.
The reason why it is ranked second is because players have been very disappointed with the large-scale online games in recent years. The quality of online games launched by several large-scale game companies is not good.
Players are used to being disappointed, and many people are even desperate, despairing of domestic large-scale online client games.
Repeated hopes are met with repeated traps. This is the fundamental reason for the rapid rise of steam in China.
The expectations for Another World were very low at the beginning, and it was not even expected to be among the top 50 games.
You can get in by spending money, but Lin Zhentang refused to spend money and relied on his strength to get promoted.
As the company announced one after another that it had obtained patent authorization for novels, obtained patents for original paintings, purchased music copyrights, hired people to draw pictures, and hired people to create music...etc.
The expectations slowly increased.
Later, with the pictures, animations, and career demonstrations, players were impressed and started to pay a lot of attention.
It is expected that the first expansion pack will be released around the end of November this year, and the first version will be available in March next year.
"Old Lin, the expansion pack must be reviewed by me. If I don't pass it, it won't be released." Gao Jin looked at Lin Zhentang and said, and Lin Zhentang agreed.
Gao Jin waved his hand for Lin Zhentang to sit down, and Zhao Guangming, general manager of Starlight Biological Company, stood up.
"Chairman, colleagues"
"Starlight Biotech completed the reserve target of one billion yuan set by the headquarters last year, turned in profits of 1.5 billion yuan, and retained one billion corporate operating funds..."
"Achieving such results is due to our having the distribution rights of Angel Capsules in Asia."
"However, we did not stand still. With the support of the headquarters, we established a biologics research institute and obtained 47 patents throughout the year."
"It is expected that human trials of the first product will be launched next year............."
"We will strive to reach new heights this year"
After Zhao Guangming finished speaking, he looked at Gao Jin and did not dare to be careless at all. Gao Jin left a deep impression on everyone today.
"I have seen a case about Coca-Cola. When a factory is established in a country and it starts operations, it will launch several brands to compete with local brands."
"If you win, you will naturally replace the local beverage brand. If you lose, you will directly spend money to acquire the local beverage brand. After the acquisition, you will gradually reduce its market share and let it slowly die on its own."
"Or change the formula so that the public doesn't like the new taste, and gradually make consumers instinctively abandon this brand of drink."
"Why can't you act as an agent for some foreign brands with good sales and reduce their share of the domestic market by raising prices and other means?"
"Fighting opponents and normal development can be carried out at the same time. Please think about it carefully."
After Gao Jin finished speaking, he waved his hand for Zhao Guangming to sit down. Not only Zhao Guangming started to think about it, many people also started to think about this issue.
