Lin Boyong was completely speechless and smacked his lips and said: "That's all, I didn't say it. Can this small business in the Grand Theater make money? I don't believe it."
Lin Jue smiled, turned to Xie Danhong and said, "Sister Danhong, could you please tell me about the general situation of our Grand Theater in the Lin family?"
After hearing this, Xie Danhong stood up, smiled slightly, and said with a smile: "Don't you dare disobey me?" After saying that, he took out an account book from his green sleeves and slowly opened it.
Everyone in the Lin family was busy listening with bated breath. But they heard Xie Danhong say in a crisp voice: "There are currently three branches of our Jiangnan Grand Theater. Wangyue Building is the first one and the earliest to open. It was officially opened on the fifth day of September the year before last. As of last month, the account details
It was sent to the capital for this. The accounts currently in the hands of the slave family total one year and nine months. So far, the total income of the Wangyue Tower office for one year and nine months is 598,723 taels.
"
"What?" Everyone in the Lin family cried out in shock. They never expected that a small theater could earn so much money in more than a year. This is simply unbelievable.
Calculated based on twenty-one months, the theater's income per month is as high as 28,000 taels, which means that the average daily benefit is nearly one thousand taels of silver. This is really a lot of money every day.
Xie Danhong continued: "There is another branch in Hangzhou, opened in Dongcheng. It opened on the second day of February last year. So far, it has been open for a total of one year and four months. As of last month's accounts, the total revenue was 300,000 yuan.
Eighty-four thousand five hundred taels. The Dongcheng Branch's business is slightly worse than that of Wangyue Tower. The income is also less."
"..." Everyone in the Lin family was speechless. In total, they were earning 800 taels a day. Isn't that bad? The two theaters in Hangzhou alone brought Lin Jue and the others an income of more than 1,700 taels a day. This is more than enough.
have to?
"To say that the best business is the branch we opened in Beijing not long ago. Mr. Lin is the one who has the foresight. Although the initial investment was high, the profits were huge." Xie Danhong looked at Lin Jue with a smile.
Lin Jue smiled and said: "The branch in Beijing opened on March 18th, and it has only been four months since then. How much revenue can it make?"
"Reporting to Young Master Lin, it is true that we don't have enough time, but we have already earned 381,100 taels. It is almost the same as the income of Hangzhou Dongcheng branch."
As soon as Xie Danhong finished speaking, a group of Lin family members, old and young, started barking like cats that had their tails stepped on.
"What? Three hundred and eighty thousand? Four months? Are you kidding?"
"I...let me do the math. 380,000 taels, four months, that is...nearly 100,000 taels per month, which means...the daily income is as high as 3,000 taels?"
"Oh my God, this is not making money, this is clearly stealing money. This is too unbelievable."
Everyone in the Lin family was talking a lot, and even a business veteran like Lin Boyong couldn't help but feel horrified. If these data are true, then this industry can be said to be hugely profitable.
Lin Jue smiled and looked at everyone's reaction. He was very satisfied with everyone's reaction. This was actually within his expectation. No one could remain indifferent after hearing such a series of benefit figures.
"Thank you, Sister Danhong. Let's sit down and drink tea." Lin Jue cupped his hands and said.
Xie Danhong returned the gift, stuffed the account book into her sleeves, and sat down with a smile. At this moment, she was no longer too nervous, because she saw another side of the Lin family. It turned out that the Lin family had never seen the world.
The income from the theater has also made them lose their cool. Even the rich people are like this. Speaking of it, Mr. Lin is much calmer than them. When he reports these figures every month, Mr. Lin's face is as expressionless as water.
, making it seem like you are not managing well.
"First uncle, second uncle, brothers, what you just heard is the income ledger of Jiangnan Grand Theater since its opening. The total income is 1.36 million taels of silver." Lin Jue said to everyone in the Lin family.
Everyone was bulging their eyes and gasping for breath. One million three hundred and sixty thousand taels of silver. It is incredible how much the three theaters have benefited from in this short period of time.
"Lin Jue, are you really... benefiting so much?" Lin Boyong leaned forward and asked.
Lin Jue smiled and said: "Uncle, this is gross profit, not net profit. The cost of opening these three theaters is not small. Counting all fixed expenses, it is nearly 500,000 taels. There are also personnel salaries. It is necessary.
I know that although there are less than 70 actors on stage in these three theaters, the entire theater has more than 400 people. There are 67 actors and 53 actors in training. The script is written
There are thirty-two scribes, twenty-four painters, nineteen musicians, one hundred and ten craftsmen, and several handymen and nursing staff. Moreover, the salary of the Grand Theater is very high. An ordinary handyman
Their salary is at least five taels of silver a month. The salary of painters, musicians, scriptwriters and other craftsmen ranges from twelve to thirty taels of silver. The actors who perform on stage, even those who perform small roles, also earn ten taels of silver a month.
The cost of the pillars and the main actors ranges from fifty to one hundred taels. Our monthly salary costs tens of thousands of taels. Plus various expenses, we get a net profit of more than 1.3 million taels of gross profit.
About half."
Everyone in the Lin family was shocked again. Half of the profit, isn't this huge profit? Generally speaking, business people know that it is good to make a business profit of about 20%. Normally, it is about 15%.
Profit. And the profit of this grand theater is as high as 50%, which is really staggering. Just these three theaters have earned Lin Jue and the others more than 600,000 taels of silver. Even the three shareholders have each received more than 200,000.
Two silver dollars. In other words, the entire Lin family's business and industry together, the annual net profit is barely the same as Lin Jue's income alone, this makes everyone in the Lin family speechless.
"I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect it. I thought this was a humble business, but I didn't expect it to be so profitable. The income from your three theaters is enough to keep my entire Lin family busy for more than two years. Hey! How can I say this?"
Lin Boyong sighed.
Lin Jue smiled and said: "Uncle, different industries have different incomes. Uncle, think about it, some industries are still far inferior to our Lin family. So what? So this cannot be compared. Uncle is in business
Veterans in the field should know that whenever a new industry emerges, as long as it proves its potential, those who dare to join it will make huge profits. Of course, they may also lose everything. This is called the coexistence of risks and benefits. When the industry matures, it will
Just like the business our Lin family does, the grain and oil shop and shipbuilding business are already mature and stable industries with fierce competition, so if you can get 20% of the profit, that's already very good."
Lin Boyong and everyone in the Lin family deeply believe that when an industry emerges, the first to take advantage of it is always a combination of opportunities and risks. Either you will make a lot of money, or you will lose everything. Generally speaking, bold speculators or those with strong financial resources
Only those who want to rush in and try. For normal businessmen, they will only enter when they are sure that it is a normal and low-risk industry. However, at this time, the golden opportunity for huge profits has passed. Obviously, Lin Jue opened
The Grand Theater has explored a new path and successfully established a foothold, so it is natural for them to obtain huge profits.
"In such a hugely profitable industry, our Lin family must participate. This is our chance to turn around." Lin Song shouted softly.
Everyone became excited. The head of the family pointed out a clear path for the family. If the Lin family could participate in such a profitable path, it would definitely change the status quo. But everyone also had some doubts in their hearts. This was a brand new industry.
, every other line is like a mountain, it is still unknown whether the Lin family can succeed in it? It depends on how fast people eat tofu, and you will not know until it is your turn that it may not be the same thing. Take Hangzhou City as an example, Wanhua Tower Qunfang Pavilion has also already
There are several other theaters, but their business is only average, and they will definitely not be able to achieve the income of the Jiangnan Grand Theater. It can be seen that not every one can be as popular as the Jiangnan Grand Theater.
Naturally, Lin Boyong could not be dazzled by the huge profits like others. He had a lot of experience and knew the details of the Lin family. This matter may not be as easy as imagined. He remained cautious.
"Lin Jue, do you want the Lin family to switch to this business? I'm afraid it won't be easy. With the current situation of my Lin family, it may be difficult to make such a big change. You have to think twice. Every other line is like a mountain. The Lin family's current situation
The business can at least make more than 200,000 taels of profit every year. If the change of career fails, it will be out of control." Lin Boyong said thoughtfully.
Lin Jue laughed and said: "Uncle, I don't want all the Lin family to switch to the grand theater business. Today I invited Yingying and Sister Danhong here to get their consent and let my Lin family participate in the Jiangnan Grand Theater.
Entering into a joint venture. The business of this grand theater is not something that anyone can succeed in if they want to do it. If you rush into it rashly, you will lose everything. Therefore, participating in a joint venture is the only way out."
"Participating in a joint venture? This is a good idea." Lin Boyong nodded and smiled.
"It's a good idea. If you have someone who leads the way, you won't be afraid of risks." Everyone nodded.
"The Grand Theater has a long-term plan, which is to open semicolons all over the country. Our Lin family is now involved. We will open five or six more theaters in one or two years, and the income will be enough to cover the burden.
debt. That’s why I thought of letting the Lin family become a shareholder. This is an opportunity for my Lin family to turn around." Lin Jue said in a deep voice.
Everyone in the Lin family nodded. If they open five or six more profitable businesses like this, will the profits be repaid? The Lin family will get a small portion of the profits, which will be enough to pay off the annual debt. After this, it will continue to flow. The Lin family will definitely
Get more profit.
Lin Boyong was still very calm and looked at Lin Jue quietly and said: "Lin Jue, uncle has a few questions. Please explain them to him so that everyone in the family can understand them better, so as not to cause confusion."
Lin Jue nodded and said, "Uncle, please speak."
Lin Boyong thought for a moment and said: "According to what you said, the Jiangnan Grand Theater is now fully capable of opening its own branch. My Lin family does not seem to play a big role in it. After all, my Lin family does not have any experience or funds."
French support. So why did the two Miss Xie agree to join the Lin family? In business, this is a bit unusual."
Lin Jue laughed loudly when he heard this, turned to look at Xie Yingying and Xie Danhong and said, "You two, please explain it to my uncle."
