In the group office, after Tang An returned from Magic City, a group meeting was held.
The senior management of the group gathered together, and even the general managers of several of its studios were present.
"It's rare for everyone to be so united. Our company has achieved very good results in the past year. The overall performance ranks first among the film and television companies in the industry, and the market share is undoubtedly the first. It is inseparable from everyone's hard work this year.
Hard"
bang bang bang bang
After Tang An finished speaking, group president Chen Guofu and general manager Xu Manyun also said a few words one after another.
Without further ado, the meeting began.
So far, all the company's royalties from all the movies that have been released have been paid into the account.
Chief Financial Officer Wang Weixian made a report.
The overseas copyright of "The Martian" is US$32 million.
With a box office of US$97 million in North America, the producers and distributors share approximately 50%.
Fox took 8% of the distribution fee of 7.8 million U.S. dollars and the publicity fee of 12 million U.S. dollars, leaving only 28.7 million U.S. dollars for Han and Tang.
Overseas box office is US$1.24, which can get a share of 39 million.
The domestic distribution share is 1.439 billion yuan and the production share is 43%, which is a total of 618 million yuan.
Coupled with various domestic copyrights, pre-roll advertisements also sold for 23 million yuan.
The total global revenue of "The Martian" is 1.114 billion yuan.
The total production cost and publicity cost of this movie was 220 million, with a profit of 894 million.
This is also the film with the highest revenue and profit in Chinese film history.
"Detective Chinatown", which was released during the Spring Festival, had a total domestic box office of 1.045 billion, and the total production share and distribution share was 449 million yuan.
Domestic TV, video tapes, Internet copyrights, pre-roll ads, plus a little bit of overseas copyrights, the total is 30 million yuan.
The total revenue of "Detective Chinatown" was 479 million, which was lower than the 552 million of "The Secret of the Dragon".
However, the production cost plus publicity and distribution costs are only 150 million yuan, so the profit is still higher.
The domestic box office of "Girls We Chased Together in Those Years" is around 95 million, and the 10 million promotion cost and 9.5 million distribution share have been recovered.
The ratings for the first round of "Why Shengxiao Silent" and "Bu Bu Jingxin" exploded, and the broadcast rights for the second and third rounds were sold one after another. Together with the online copyright, a total of 240 million was recovered.
One year after its launch, "The Legend of Zhen Huan" once again sold a round of broadcast rights. A single episode was priced at a high price of one million, and the revenue was 75 million, and it did not need to be divided with the Beijing TV Drama Art Center.
The total of these incomes is 1.928 billion yuan.
Nearly 2 billion in capital, but the 10% stake in Tudou cost another 500 million.
Tang An thought for a while and said to Wang Weida, "Let's repay the 820 million loan for "The Martian" and the 80 million loan for "Detective Chinatown" first."
After repaying the 900 million loan, Tang An will only have nearly 1 billion loan for the house mortgage.
Wang Wei nodded quickly, "Okay, Chairman."
You borrow and repay, and it's not difficult to borrow again. You can just borrow again when shooting a new movie. You can make money with the bank's money.
Tang An looked at everyone, then smiled and said, "You are debt-free and light-hearted. Mr. Liu, please tell us about the company's current projects."
Liu Debin nodded and reported on the company's current projects.
There are a total of 5 TV series under preparation, with episodes ranging from 40 to 60. The total cost is 230 million, and a loan of 120 million has been obtained.
The films invested include "The Master of Hypnosis", with a total investment of 25 million yuan, of which Xu Zheng Studio invested 30%.
The script for the second part of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" has been completed and can be put into filming. The production cost is still as high as 200 million, which can be borrowed. With the results of "The Secret of the Dragon", a 200 million loan is no problem.
"The Stolen Five Years" company invested 75%, 10 million, and is about to start filming.
"Hong Kong" is expected to invest 80 million, which is also a loan. It can start after Xu Zheng finishes "Hypnosis Master".
After so many projects, there was still 400 million in cash in the company's account, and the money was gone again.
Li Nan, director of the distribution department, also reported on the release dates of the movies released by the group this year.
"The Master of Hypnosis" is on June 14th, the Thursday before the Dragon Boat Festival.
"Tiny Times" summer release in early July.
"The Listener" has a summer release in early August.
"Chill" is released on National Day at the end of September.
"The Stolen Five Years" before Double Eleven in November.
"Kuaiben's Happy Home" November.
The second part of "Ghost Blows Out the Lantern" will be released in mid-December for the Lunar New Year.
"Embarrassed in Hong Kong" 2013 Spring Festival release.
"Chairman, this is the tentative schedule for the eight movies. We will coordinate with each other for details."
Li Nan said with a smile on his face.
8 movies, starting from June until next year’s Spring Festival, occupy all popular schedules.
There are absolutely few companies in China that have the ability to release movies in all popular schedules that span more than half a year, and they are not the kind of three-no movies.
This is enough to prove the company's current strength, otherwise there wouldn't be so many movies seeking distribution.
Tang An nodded and said, "For the 8 movies, from now on the publicity department will start to come up with their own publicity plans and make preparations in advance. Don't be in a hurry when the time comes."
Zhu Mo said, "Chairman, don't worry, we are already making preparations."
After everyone reported, it was the turn of Wu Feng, the newly appointed deputy general manager of the investment and development department of the group, an investment manager hired from CITIC Group through a headhunting company.
Although he is just an investment manager and low-level manager, he has been engaged in Internet and financial investments for many years.
Finally, regarding the major studios, each of the group's studios invested 20 million yuan. They had already informed each other in advance and there was no objection, although their shares would be diluted.
The shareholders of their studio can also inject capital, and the specific proportion will be discussed separately.
Finally, Tang An announced several personnel appointments.
"It has been two and a half years since the company was established. I am very happy that no one has left since its inception. We have worked together to develop the company to its current scale."
"Now the company is on the right track, the group's organizational structure has been readjusted, and several new companies will be established."
Upon hearing Tang An's words, everyone cheered up.
Originally, seeing that the newly appointed head of the investment and development department was directly promoted to the deputy general manager level, several directors inevitably had some thoughts.
Before they could think about it, Tang An started to announce.
"The group has established a film division, with Li Nan, director of the distribution department, serving as deputy general manager of the film division. It consists of a production department, a publicity and marketing department, and a distribution department.
The director of the production department is Zhao Jun, the former deputy director of the production department.
The director of the Publicity and Marketing Department is Zhu Mo, the former Director of the Publicity Department, and the Public Relations Department is merged into the Publicity and Marketing Department.
The director of the issuance department is served by Cheng Hai, the former deputy director of the issuance department.
The deputy general manager of the TV drama division is still concurrently served by the group vice president Zhuang Liqi.
Ya Ning, Director of Development Department, was promoted to Deputy General Manager of Development Department.
Liu Debin, director of the production department, serves as the general manager of Hantang Film and Television Production Company, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the group that will be established soon.
Tudou.com will soon establish Tudou Group, and the company and Tudou Group will jointly establish Tudou Pictures.
Guo Jianwei, deputy general manager of the group, will serve as general manager of Tudou Pictures. In addition to film and television production, the new company's main business will be the development of online dramas, online movies, animations and online variety shows.
Qiansi Advertising Company has acquired many other advertising companies in the past two years and reorganized into Qiansi Media Group, with general manager Zhang Changsheng as the group president.
Han-Tang Cinema Chain was reorganized into Han-Tang Cinema Chain Management Group, with general manager Liu Ge serving as group president and deputy general manager Qu Bo serving as vice president of the group.
It will have six major cinema management companies in Chang'an, Jingcheng, Magic City, Guangzhou, Chongqing and Jiangning, which will be responsible for the cinema management in each region and attract highly qualified cinemas to join.
The prototype of a large group has already been formed, except for the CEO and CFO.
With Tang An as the chairman, there is no difference between the president and ceo, and the financial director does not need to participate in the company's decision-making, so there is no need to be upgraded to cfo.
More than half of the management promotions are considered to be a happy one for everyone.
As for managers and team leaders at the level below the director, the new Han-Tang Film and Television Production Company and Tudou Pictures need a lot of management, and anyone who wants to go can do so.
The establishment of Hantang Film and Television Production Company is mainly to cooperate with the group's affiliated studios and other film and television companies. Otherwise, the seven major studios would count one film and television drama every year, which would be 7.
In addition to some projects controlled by the group, there are at least a dozen film and television dramas every year.
It’s not that I’m too busy, it’s just too complicated. It would be easier to separate it.
Of course, among the projects controlled by the group, the group still participates in investment, such as "Ghost Blowing the Lamp", "囧 Series", "Tang Detective", etc.
Hantang Film and Television Production Company is wholly owned by the group, with an investment of 40 million yuan.
In Tudou Pictures, Hantang and Tudou hold 70 and 30% of the shares respectively, with a total investment of 100 million.
The group's reorganization was completed in an instant. With Tang An's words, the people below would have to work for another month.
Fortunately, I'm not too busy at this time, so I have time to mess around.
At this time, the group only has 168 million in cash on its books, but it can still borrow a little more money for the two movies "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" and "囧".
It relatively controls Tudou Group, Han-Tang Literature, and absolutely controls Tudou Pictures, plus Cinema Group, Qiansi Media Group, and Han-Tang Film and Television Production Company.
8% shares of uc and 1% shares of Weibo
Tudou is valued at nearly 5 billion, and Han and Tang literature is valued at nearly 3 billion. All of these combined, Tang An now controls assets of more than 20 billion.
In terms of personal net worth alone, Tang An is now even ranked among the top 100 in Forbes China.
