Chapter 1077 bad news again and again

Monday, May 28th.

Pei Qian came to the company early to check the work briefings sent by various departments last week.

The first thing to open is the briefing of Outu Technology.

After looking at it twice, Pei Qian immediately closed it with a look of despair.

"Sure enough, the clothes drying racks sold out..."

When Pei Qian had nothing to do, he often browsed the Ellie Island website intensively, and naturally he saw the video posted by Lin Jiaqiang.

After seeing this video, Pei Qian knew that something was wrong!

But in his heart, he still held a trace of luck.

What if the popularity is high, but the promotional effect of the smart fitness clothes drying rack is not obvious?

Now after reading Outu Technology's briefing, Pei Qian found that he had indeed thought too much.

The newly released G1 mobile phone and smart fitness clothes drying rack have all sold out, and so far they have all been sold out intermittently.

The OEM is seizing the time and working hard to produce. After getting a larger order, the OEM of the smart fitness clothes drying rack has even opened a new production line, and it can be said that it is fully stocking up.

Pei Qian just glanced at the stock numbers of the smart fitness clothes drying rack and felt a little dizzy.

At the very beginning, he asked Chang You to grit his teeth and prepare supplies, but only 10,000 units were prepared.

But now, all 10,000 units have been sold out, and orders for another 10,000 units have been sent!

Although the number is the same, the initial 10,000 units have been in stock for a long time. I originally planned to sell them slowly for a year and a half, but I didn't expect that they would be sold out so quickly!

As for the second batch of 10,000 units, I'm afraid they won't last long.

The most frightening thing is that there are actually some large orders in it. A gym called "Star Bird Fitness" directly ordered more than 100 units, and will buy more in the future!

Outu Technology's products are all expensive to sell, but once the turnover starts, the money is just like running water.

The profits of smart fitness clothes drying racks are not high. In addition to the raw material costs that cannot be reduced due to the high quality requirements of the equipment itself, logistics, warehousing, door-to-door delivery, moving services and other services are also a large cost.

Without considering the overhead of headwind logistics, the profit of each smart fitness clothes drying rack is only about 200 yuan.

But after the quantity increases, 10,000 units are still 2 million.

Although based on Tenda’s current profitability, 2 million is enough to cover even one money-burning activity, but don’t forget there is also the in-app purchase of “Fitness Battle”!

So far, "Fitness Fight" has attracted a large number of players. As a mobile game, its monthly revenue on the official platform alone has reached 30 million.

Compared with other games with the same income level, the number of active users of "Fitness Battle" is even two or three times that of those games, and the number of registered users is more than ten times that of those games!

In other words, the popularity of this game is indeed very high. Even if many players do not have the equipment and cannot persist, they will register an account to check it out.

Because there are so many players in total, even if a lot of people leave, there are still a lot of people who stay.

The more players stay, the more players recharge.

Although the recharge system of "Fitness Fight" is too conscientious and reduces income to a certain extent, the recharge system that can be refunded at will has stimulated many players to recharge, so the income is still good.

Taking into account the high share of the official platform to Tenda, this game can earn Tenda nearly 20 million a month.

What’s even more frightening is that the official platform is not the only channel for “Fitness Battle”.

When Tenda was in crisis, Zhou Muyan stepped in to contact some game distributors and put Tenda's games on some small platforms.

Although these platforms are small and their share of revenue is not high, they are more successful in number.

Coupled with the recommendations from major channels such as Shenhua Mobile App Mall, the net income of "Fitness Battle" in the first month can be doubled again!

Of course, the high income in the early stage is due to the special recharge model.

Because players can refund money at will, there is no psychological burden on the players at all, so the charges are more severe than the last.

Even if there are many refunds, many orders will be retained.

In the next few months, when players get all the props they want, recharge fees will naturally plummet, and the game's revenue will naturally drop as well.

but……

Obviously, Yangyang Games will continue to update various good-looking props, scenes, special effects and even characters for "Fitness Fight", and subsequent expansion packs will be released continuously.

Pei Qian didn't look at it.

It’s so disappointing!

Who would have thought that Pei Qian, who is now counting money until he feels like vomiting, was happily fantasizing about selling a building a week ago.

Facts have proved that this is just nonsense.

After turning off the Outu Technology briefing, Pei Qian read the briefings from several other departments.

Overall, all departments are developing steadily and orderly.

Pei Qian's mood calmed down a little. After all, the best news is the absence of bad news.

As long as these departments don't suddenly make huge profits, everyone will still be good friends.

While I was watching the briefing, there was a sudden knock on the door.

Pei Qian looked up and saw that it was Huang Sibo from Feihuang Studio.

"Mr. Pei! I have something to ask for advice."

"With Mr. Lin's help, we have been discussing the copyright of "Mission and Choice" with the Ellie Island website."

"The preliminary intentions have been communicated almost. I am here to ask you to give me an idea. Should this be a buyout or a share?"

Pei Qian couldn't help but his face darkened.

Sure enough, it’s still here!

It's a blessing, not a curse, but it's a curse that cannot be avoided.

On the day when the "Mission and Choice" movie hit the box office, Pei Qian knew that the copyright of the movie would definitely be sold to video websites at a high price in the future. It was just a matter of sooner or later.

Now, this day has come.

Fortunately, Pei Qian has made sufficient mental preparations.

He thought about it briefly and was a little confused.

According to common sense, he should have made a brainless choice.

Because the buyout involves a large sum of money being transferred directly, it will cause great trouble in settlement.

The money sharing will come gradually and be spread evenly over each month, so the pressure will not be so great.

However, Pei Qian has already suffered a loss once in "Better Tomorrow".

That was what he thought at the time, so he offered a share of "Better Tomorrow". However, he never expected that the movie would become so popular on the Ellie website. In the end, the money he earned from the share of the movie far exceeded the purchase price!

This is very stiff.

Another point to consider is the impact of key extension.

Key extension means that the movie will be played in the cinema for a longer period of time. Although it can increase the box office, the audience's demand for watching movies will be further reduced. After going to the video website, fewer people will follow it. The price the website is willing to offer

It's even lower.

"Beautiful Tomorrow" was not postponed at that time. After the movie was released, the audience's enthusiasm was still very high. There were more people watching it, so the shares would naturally be larger.

But "Mission and Choice" has been postponed for two months. In this way, most of the audience's enthusiasm for watching the movie has been satisfied. Many people even watched it for the second or third time. The price the website is willing to offer should also be

Just lower it.

When he thought that he would probably make more money if he split the money, Pei Qian could only choose short-term pain rather than long-term pain.

"Buy it out." Pei Qian made a very difficult decision.

Huang Sibo nodded: "Okay, Mr. Pei, then buy it out."

He didn't ask any more questions.

Mr. Pei has thought about it for such a long time, and obviously made the most correct choice after careful consideration and weighing the interests of all parties for a long time.

Is there anything left to question?

Huang Sibo turned to leave.

After making up his mind, Pei Qian felt much more relaxed.

He picked up the tea cup and drank water, and asked casually: "How much will the buyout cost this time?"

Huang Sibo replied: "Oh, if nothing else, it should be around 55 million."

"How much?" Pei Qian almost spit out a mouthful of tea and couldn't believe his ears.

Huang Sibo repeated again: "55 million, Mr. Pei, do you think it's too little?"

Pei Qian: "..."

Crazy, really crazy!

It's okay not to ask. When asked about this specific number, Pei Qian became completely calm.

He was very confused and asked: "I remember that the price offered by the Ellie Island website for "Better Tomorrow" was only 18 million, right?"

"Why has it risen so much?!"

Huang Sibo smiled: "Oh, Mr. Pei, you may not have paid attention to these and don't know much about it."

"The 18 million at that time was more than a year ago!"

"At the time of "Better Tomorrow," for a movie with a box office of over 100 million and the participation of big-name actors, the copyright purchase fee started at 10 million and could not exceed 50 million at most."

"'Mission and Decision' has set a new box office record for domestic films. It is regarded by many as a milestone for domestic heavy industry films. Lu Zhiyao also hopes to win a real actor award with this film... The copyright fee is only the top dollar.

, obviously it is no longer enough.”

"Moreover, Elly Island is not just buying the movie rights this time. They are planning to create a special topic and do some publicity to bring popularity to the website."

"Collecting all the high-quality videos related to "Mission and Choice" on the entire Elly Island website, and forming a monopoly on similar content to a certain extent, is a great deal for them!"

"So, although 55 million is relatively expensive, it can only be said to be a normal price."

"Except for the Ellie Island website, basically no other video website in China can afford this price. And I considered that the Ellie Island website has a lot of traffic and will be helpful to us, so I accepted this price.

"

Pei Qian was silent.

I originally thought that long-term pain would be worse than short-term pain, but this short-term pain is too painful!

How to spend these 50 million!

But when he thought that he might earn more than 50 million if he split the money, Pei Qian said nothing more.

Either way, it's the same thing. Instead of worrying about this, it's better to think about how to spend the money early.

After Huang Sibo left, Pei Qian thought for a long time and called Liang Qingfan.

Although Pei Qian has already hatched a new money-burning plan, he originally planned to save it for the summer sale on June 26 next month, but he cannot do it this month.

After thinking about it, I decided to use the stupid method from before.

Buy a property!

The basic value of system funds for this cycle is 50 million, and currently Tenda’s fixed assets are about 170 million, mainly concentrated in the Sloth Apartment buildings.

Fortunately, real industries such as Moyu Internet Cafe, Nifeng Inn, and managed gyms, including new experience stores, are all rented, so this fixed asset has not exceeded.

According to the system's conversion method, fixed assets will be divided by 10 and then calculated into system funds.

In other words, even if Pei Qian loses all the system funds, the system funds at settlement will still be calculated as 17 million, and the amount that Pei Qian can convert is only 33 million.

Pei Qian thought about it, and it seemed that it would be a good idea to lower the amount further.

Even if we buy another building worth 120 million yuan, there is still 20 million yuan that the system can operate. If we take a serious loss and earn hundreds of thousands or even one million yuan, it will not be a problem.

At least if you burn the tens of millions you spent selling the copyright, it won't be a big problem.

Therefore, Pei Qian called Liang Qingfan and told him to look for a new building in advance.

Plan ahead so that you can spend it as soon as the money is available.

On the other side of the phone, Liang Qingfan thought about it for a moment and asked: "Mr. Pei, should you continue to buy residential buildings? Can you consider a shop?"

Pei Qian was stunned for a moment: "Shop?"

"What location is the shop?"

Liang Qingfan said: "Well...it's in a relatively remote area, and the appreciation potential is not guaranteed, but it should be okay."

Pei Qian felt a little relieved.

If it's the kind of store in the city center, you'll definitely make a lot of money if you buy it.

Because the most important thing about a store is its location. The difference in customer flow between a good location and a poor location is more than ten times, which directly determines the appreciation potential of the store.

If it's in a relatively remote area, that's fine.

Although there is potential for appreciation, even if it rises a little, it should still be incomparable with those prosperous shops.

Whether he was buying a residential building or a shop, whether he was buying in a prime location or a remote location, Pei Qian had always made money.

In this case, buying some shops in a slightly more remote location will diversify your fixed asset allocation and reduce the risk of sudden big profits.

Thinking of this, Pei Qian nodded: "Okay, you can buy it if you want. If you don't have enough money, tell me."
