After leaving the big house in Maoer Hutong, Chen Qing drove all the way to Zhongguancun.
The morning was a series of meetings.
The first is the quarterly financial report meeting of Xiangshan Network, an important network technology company in the capital area of the Westeros system.
Compared with Huanyu Online, which is still losing a lot of money due to the development of e-commerce in Beijing, Xiangshan Network has quickly entered a profit cycle since it took over the StarCraft OL game authorized by Daenerys two years ago, even if the profit level is It is far inferior to Paradise Online and Jiangnan Interactive Entertainment in the south, and it is definitely where many new technology network companies in this era who are still speculating on concepts look up to.
Over the past two years, in addition to StarCraft OL, Xiangshan Network has also developed small web puzzle games and other large-scale online games by relying on the portal business it inherited from Yigrit China. The advertising business has also been booming. Therefore, it is just In the second quarter from April to June 2000, Xiangshan Network's net profit reached RMB 49 million. If this trend continues, Xiangshan Network's net profit for the whole year is expected to be close to RMB 200 million.
In this era, with annual profits reaching 200 million yuan, it is already a cutting-edge enterprise that cannot be ignored in China.
On the other hand, this actually shows how rapidly China’s online gaming industry has risen in recent years.
Most people and companies want to make more money, but Chen Qing doesn't think so.
To be precise, under the indoctrination of her boss, Chen Qing doesn't think so now.
What’s more, it’s China today.
Wealth is still not a very positive term.
In the morning meeting, Chen Qing personally participated. The main discussion was on how to spend Xiangshan Network's profits as much as possible and reduce the annual net profit level.
Because some topics were not accessible to outsiders, the scale of the meeting was very small, with only a few people including Wen Xun, the head of Xiangshan Network, and the financial director attending. Moreover, because Chen Qing had already known it well in advance, she was basically the one attending. play.
"Games cannot be advertised outside of online platforms, but portals can. In the second half of the year, in the northern region north of the Yellow River, all newspapers and magazines related to Internet technology, and all influential print media, will try their best to advertise Some advertising. Let me tell you clearly that this part of the investment is not only for marketing purposes, but also for the consideration of establishing a good relationship with traditional media. The reasons for this certainly do not need to be explained by me. "
"The education section of the portal, as well as the digital book collection plan you have recently developed, have all doubled their budgets. However, the most important thing is marketing, to get the name of what you are doing and create a positive image of the Internet company. , I have told you this before, and I will emphasize it again today.”
"A courier company incubated by Huanyu Online is undergoing a new round of financing. I have already informed them that Xiangshan Network will subscribe for 50% of the financing share this time."
"There will be a land auction in September, and one of the pieces of land happens to be next to Peking University, not far from us. You have to take a photo of it and then entrust it to develop it. This will be your official entry into the real estate industry. In the future, it can also be used as an internal subscription for employee benefits. "
When Chen Qing said this, Xiangshan Network CEO Wen Xun, who was lowering his head to write down her instructions, finally raised his head and said hesitantly: "Mr. Chen, I happen to know about this matter, and I recently made a draft on our portal. But, If I remember correctly, the starting price for the land next to Peking University is 70 million. To win it, it will cost about 100 million. Considering the subsequent development investment, even if our cash flow is abundant, we still have to do a lot of other things. Given the circumstances, I’m afraid I can’t hold on?”
Chen Qing waited patiently for Wen Xun to finish, then glared at him: "So, you want to wait for me to finish now?"
Wen Xun was stunned for a moment and quickly made an expression that said, "Please tell me."
Chen Qing said: "You don't have to take this money yourself. You can get a loan from China Construction Bank. I will give you a contact person later."
After hearing the training, I understood immediately.
No matter what age, it is probably easier for people who are not short of money to borrow money. After running Xiangshan Network for several years, Wen Xun has been tested countless times. Do you want a loan or financing
Why
Because lending money to high-quality companies like Xiangshan Network is the most secure.
However, Wen Xun still subconsciously asked: "Mr. Chen, why is it China Construction Bank? Shouldn't it be ICBC?"
Chen Qing was angry again: "You like hanging from a tree so much?"
Wen Xun suddenly realized that he had asked a very stupid question.
The Mr. Chen in front of him is known to have great magical powers.
how come
Obviously, that's how it came about.
Chen Qing saw that Wen Xun no longer asked stupid questions, so she continued, looked down at her memo, and continued: "In addition, we will allocate another public relations fee. You guys, please spend 20 million this year. Don't pay anything for this." Ask, I will send someone to take over, and you can discuss it yourself how to deal with the accounts."
After these words came out, several other people in the conference room looked over, stopped for a moment, and then shut up obediently.
Chen Qing is basically the spokesperson for the big boss behind Xiangshan Network. Therefore, even if it comes to the appointment and removal of CEO Wen Xun, she can decide it with one word. Now this matter is naturally just one word. Even if Chen Qing really puts the 20 million into his own pocket, they can only accept it.
Chen Qing glanced around, noticed everyone's expressions, and curled her lips and said: "A bunch of losers."
Everyone can only bow their heads together.
Chen Qing paused and wanted to add a few words, but thought about it and gave up.
As my boss once said, in a society that can use means outside the rules, for many people, it is an opportunity to break through class.
Otherwise, like those developed countries in the West, if all the rules have been determined, and even many hidden rules that violate secular moral ethics have been put on the table in some form, then this society will be truly and completely solidified.
If this theory were spoken out, it would definitely be criticized as fallacious.
However, whether most people want to admit it or not, this is the fact.
No longer paying attention to what others thought, Chen Qing quickly continued: "As for taxes, I have arranged for a firm to help you re-plan. Don't worry, I am not asking you to evade taxes. Instead, I will take the initiative to give up some tax benefits and pay as much as possible." . You have to understand that the more you pay taxes, the more attention and protection you will receive. This is the rule."
"Finally, regarding the issues of cheats and private servers that plague the game business, the higher authorities will issue a regulation in the near future, and at the same time, a multi-departmental joint nationwide crackdown will be launched. Please prepare the materials you should prepare on your side and take the initiative. Cooperate."
When Chen Qing talked about this, everyone who was originally in a bad mood because of the money flowing out of their pockets suddenly cheered up.
In recent years, while online games have been booming, problems such as plug-ins and private servers that have plagued game companies have also emerged.
Unfortunately, there are no laws and regulations on how to deal with this kind of thing in China at the moment. Everyone can only mess with it in various ways, and the results can be imagined.
Now, someone finally comes to help!
Chen Qing glanced at a few people again, curled her lips and said, "Don't think it fell from the sky."
Everyone understood immediately.
Chen Qing has just said the truth, if you give, you will get something in return. Everything is mutual.
Then they discussed various details of the series of matters just now. Chen Qing stayed at Xiangshan Network for an hour, ended the meeting, and was about to leave when Wen Xun caught up with him: "Mr. Chen, regarding the IPO, the United States has started It’s another interest rate hike cycle, do we really have no chance this time?”
Chen Qing did not give the other party any hope and shook her head directly: "I have said before that now is not the time to be too pushy."
"But" Wen Xun followed Chen Qing out step by step and said, "I still think that after the IPO, we will be more secure and the company can be more standardized."
Chen Qing came over: "Then, each of you will hold the title of billionaire, and then be on several wealth lists, so that the whole society will look at you with admiration?"
"Mr. Chen, that's not what I meant."
"Then don't think about anything and just do your work honestly," Chen Qing said: "Or, you need money very much, no problem, I will ask someone to do the calculation later and buy out your shares. Of course, when the time comes, You can just take the money and get out."
When Wen Xun heard this, he didn't dare to say anything anymore, smiled awkwardly, and still respectfully sent Chen Qing to the door.
After Chen Qing left, several senior executives who had just participated in the meeting gathered around. Wen Xun could only spread his hands: "Don't think about it. If you mention this matter again, Mr. Chen will fire me."
Everyone immediately sighed in disappointment.
In fact, the Westeros system is very generous to executives of a series of technology companies in China. Therefore, everyone has obtained a lot of shares in recent years.
However, the stocks are not listed, and they are probably like waste paper in your hands. After all, their employment contracts have corresponding clauses. Before the IPO, if someone wants to leave or be fired, these stocks must be agreed upon. Price recovery.
In short, of course, we are not thinking about getting on any rich list. After all, in recent years, the pig-killing attribute of domestic rich lists has gradually been revealed. Basically, everyone just hopes that the stocks in their hands can be completely safe.
Chen Qing left Xiangshan Network, and her next stop was the nearby World Online.
It is also the company's financial meeting and next-stage development plan. The biggest difference is that compared to Xiangshan Network, which is extremely rich, Huanyu Online is heavily in debt.
Of course, after several years of operation, if Huanyu Online conducts an IPO now, its value will not be much worse than that of Xiangshan Network next door. The only difference is that profitability seems to be a bit far away.
Being so busy and staying in the capital for a weekend, Chen Qing left for Suzhou on Monday.
Meanwhile, another weekend has come to an end.
During the three-day weekend from July 14th to July 16th, it continued to dominate the summer season and once again earned 107 million yuan in box office, pushing the film's total box office to 343 million yuan, surpassing mainland China in one fell swoop. The second highest-grossing hero in film history, second only to Titanic, which had a box office of 395 million yuan.
Of course, with the momentum of Kung Fu, everyone understands that it is only a matter of time to surpass the Titanic.
In addition to Kung Fu, the second place in the rankings this past weekend was Lin Lang, the King of Sunglasses film that also won the Best Actor and Actor award at the previous Cannes Film Festival. However, after three days of release, the film's box office was only 9 million, which was just barely It is a fraction of Kung Fu, but it has also surpassed the same period data of all other films that were released in the summer, so it shows the strength of Kung Fu.
It earned 9 million in three days. As expected, Linlang is expected to earn about 13 million in the first seven days. The total box office in the mainland is expected to be around 30 million.
Speaking of Kung Fu, even though the second weekend has passed, the popularity of the film remains unabated.
The most intuitive manifestation is that in the Jinshu Film and Television City in Suzhou, the main filming location of the movie, the Pig Cage Walled City, which is open to visitors simultaneously with Kung Fu during this period, is full every day.
On the third day after Chen Qing arrived in Suzhou, she was busy with work and finally able to visit Jinshu Film and Television City. From a distance, she saw the bustling crowds of people at the Pig Cage Walled City attraction in the film city, and she felt sad.
This shabby place is a slum. What's there to see
However, it is actually understandable to make a complaint. After all, couldn't she even help herself to run over and take a look
Zhu Momo's mother Mo Yiling and the person in charge of Jinshu Film and Television City He Ze accompanied them. They looked at the crowds at the Pig Cage Walled City attractions from a distance and also gave up the idea of joining in the fun.
He Ze also smiled with emotion and said: "We are still planning what activities to arrange at this scenic spot. Unexpectedly, since the movie was released, it has been crowded every day, and there is no way to arrange it."
Mo Yiling motioned over: "Isn't there a performance? It looks good?"
"Routine," He Ze said: "In addition, we can't judge how long this craze will last. Will this attraction be demolished in the future, or will it be turned into a fixed project?"
Chen Qing said: "It depends on the situation. Such a large piece of land cannot be wasted here if no one comes."
Mo Yiling remembered something and gestured in that direction: "Is the safety of such a dilapidated building guaranteed?"
He Ze saw from a distance that some people had climbed to the top of the walled city to take pictures. Of course he understood what Mo Yiling was worried about and assured: "It's definitely fine. It just looks a little worn on the surface, but it's actually an old-fashioned effect." , not to mention the appearance, this is a completely new building, even if the popularity of visitors is maintained, it will be no problem in ten or eight years."
"That's good," Mo Yiling nodded with satisfaction, but couldn't help but remind: "However, we should send more people to maintain order and try not to let tourists climb to the roof. It's too unsafe. Something happened. , I won’t be polite.”
Hearing this, He Ze glanced at Chen Qing and saw Mr. Chen nodding, so he summoned an entourage and gave some instructions.
The three of them stopped here for a moment, then turned around and got on a battery car to continue visiting other parts of the film and television city.
Because it is summer vacation, the film and television city operation team has prepared many new projects in advance. Although Kung Fu directly took away most of the attention, it is still worth watching.
