1991 Starting from the core

Money can make all the difference. This saying is certainly true in the capital market. Many times we don’t push it, just because we don’t have enough money or it’s not worth it.

Wan Yongliang is an old man of Yuanxin - an "old man" in the true sense - his son has already entered graduate school this year. Although he was unable to keep up with the marketing department of Yuanxin in the new era due to various reasons in his previous business. Although he has made great progress, he can indeed be regarded as one of the few old foxes in Yuanxin when it comes to understanding people's hearts.

Even Su Yuanshan had to admit this.

——Wan Yongliang has truly understood Su Yuanshan’s layout in the field of public opinion.

Therefore, Wan Yongliang proposed a plan to enter the European and American TV markets, which immediately hit Su Yuanshan's thoughts.

But money... Yuanxin really can't afford much now. Even Xinghai Fund is preparing to integrate wafer fabs in Silicon Valley - despite Sanders's tough tone now, Su Yuanshan and Chen Jing did not relent even once they visited the thatched cottage.

But as long as Deyuan joins hands with Macron to launch an immersion lithography machine next month, Su Yuanshan believes that Sanders will be able to understand the concept of a process that can directly jump to 45 nanometers or even lower.

I visited the thatched cottage three times, but now I am visiting twice.

As long as the integration in Silicon Valley is completed, it means that Deyuan will become the strongest wafer fab on the planet and will not be afraid of challenges from any opponent.

"Lao Wan, I admit that you are right, but we are really short of money now. As you know, Yuanxin has been increasing investment in various fields from last year to this year, including Xinghai. In addition, the Internet industry has also Recovery is an industry that requires long-term snowball investment..."

Wan Yongliang immediately asked: "Where is Kexin Bank?"

"Kexin?"

"Yes, Kexin is now doing very well in Southeast Asia..." Wan Yongliang's eyes were glaring: "I have talked with Mr. Sun. If nothing else, we can still get more than one billion US dollars."

"Don't think about it, Kexin wants to enter the domestic market, and banks are not as good as funds..." Su Yuanshan was stunned immediately after saying this: "Wait, do you have a goal?"

"Yes, there is a small TV station in Italy, and there are even more in the United States... Moreover, my idea is not to make a full acquisition, but to take a stake, get involved in senior management, and at the same time cooperate with the set-top box-not to use traditional TV channels, but to use Internet TV channels.”

Su Yuanshan pursed his lips and thought seriously.

If you just buy shares and get involved in the business, it really doesn't cost much. Otherwise... just refer to Murdoch's purchase of Xiao Li's TV station - that was nearly ten years ago.

In addition to money, if you can seize the traditional satellite and cable high-definition routes through set-top boxes, that is really a feasible path.

After pondering for a few seconds, Su Yuanshan nodded slowly.

"You can give it a try. If you are short of money, Kexin has joined the Bank of China Group. When the time comes, say hello to them and talk about the pros and cons. It should be no problem for everyone to contribute money together. After all, the country is also aware of the positive publicity internationally. They are preparing to set up a Confucius Institute because of the necessity of it—the higher-ups are obviously happy to see this kind of thing like taking down a mouthpiece.”

"Yes." Wan Yongliang nodded successively: "Then I will start pushing forward this year?"

"Well, let's move forward." Su Yuanshan nodded and smiled with satisfaction: "Lao Wan, be careful not to be impatient. We must use the advantages of our entire large system - whether it is capital, content, or technology. For example, Nai Fei, you may not know that Netflix is ​​one of the few websites that has been able to maintain profitability in the past two years of the Internet winter. Other Internet companies, especially those that provide services such as portals and software, all rely on The operator can help."

"Hehe, actually I know, Lao Zhang and I have talked a lot."

"Oh? Haha, it seems that you are indeed prepared." Su Yuanshan was startled, and then laughed.

——Although Zhang Jianjun is only the CEO of a "small" Dingxin Media, Dingxin Media is a shareholder of two major copyright libraries, Netflix and MP3.

Seven years have passed since the layout started in 1995. Even the dullest people have sensed the importance of the Internet to the spread of audio and video media, and thus began to become jealous of Sony and Yuanxin.

Therefore, even in the Internet winter, the stock prices of Netflix and MP3 did not fall to the bottom like those portal websites, and they did not even have a half-fold discount. They were just "technical" downward adjustments.

At the end of last year, Netflix and MP3 were also among the first Internet companies to see their stock prices return.

And Su Yuanshan believes that with the launch of Yuanxin Yidoo4's new player application and the inclusion of the MP3 copyright library into the online media library, MP3's stock price will usher in a surge.

Therefore, Zhang Jianjun, the former head of pirated optical discs, is now a famous figure in the global copyright industry... His vision and vision are naturally very different.

Speaking of Zhang Jianjun, Su Yuanshan thought of the "Shu Mountain" project established last year.

"By the way, how was the shooting in Shushan? I remember you are also the producer, right?"

Wan Yongliang nodded: "Well, we are already in post-production. It is said that it will not be released until next year - now Lao Zhang is a little worried. Next year, the ChinaKongfu trend in Hollywood will be gone..."

Su Yuanshan waved his hand and said: "It's okay. If it's gone, it's gone. Next year there will be many Xianxia games, some of which will be released. Games, movies, and actually novels... these all push each other and then spiral. We need to push Culture does not happen overnight, it develops gradually..."

"Well, so we have also prepared filming plans for the next few years based on the situation. However, currently, the influence of our station is mainly concentrated in the Chinese area and Southeast Asia. We plan to use this as a node to conquer Asia first. .”

As soon as Su Yuanshan heard about the shooting plan, he became interested. He stretched out his hand to Wan Yongliang and said, "What is the plan? Let me take a look."

Upon hearing this, Wan Yongliang immediately stood up and walked to his desk. He smiled as he walked and said, "Okay, I was just letting you take a look and give me some guidance."

After a while, he took out a folder from the drawer and handed it to Su Yuanshan.

After Su Yuanshan opened the folder, Wan Yongliang also explained: "In addition to the filming of TV series, these also include investments in movies, um... and ideas for future variety shows."

As he said this, Wan Yongliang looked at Su Yuanshan with emotion, his eyes filled with unabashed admiration.

——When he first came to ATV, although he couldn't be said to be blind, his work was more focused on how to stabilize people's hearts and control the entire team. Firstly, he didn't have much experience in the specific business, and secondly, he really didn't have that much time to think about it.

After all, at that time, many TV stations copied their programs from Niguo and Dao. Although according to Yuanxin's temper, he would definitely disdain this, but if he really couldn't find a way, or couldn't come up with clever tricks to increase the ratings, Then he can only go with the flow for a while, and wait until he has complete control of ATV. This is the key point.

But Su Yuanshan did not embarrass Wan Yongliang. He directly gave ATV's future development direction-variety shows and the introduction of domestic TV series.

With the popularity of Huanzhu and the launch of several celebrity "reality shows" one after another, ATV's ratings instantly increased! Coupled with its good relationship with Sony, ATV can easily obtain the TV rights of many American dramas and movies... With a multi-pronged approach, ATV has now steadily surpassed TVB and become the leading broadcaster of HK and even the entire Southeast Asia. The first brother in the area.

This is why Wan Yongliang is quick-thinking and wants to take advantage of the rapid development of the Internet and the European Silicon Valley plan of domestic technology to choose to enter the European and American TV markets with set-top boxes.

After all, behind the set-top box is Netflix’s huge and enviable video resource library!

"Reality show, do you plan to invite amateurs?"

Su Yuanshan raised his head, slightly surprised.

"Well, I plan to make such an attempt - what kind of sparks can a beautiful celebrity and an ordinary person collide with? Of course, this ordinary person cannot just grab one on the street. The initial idea is to find the middle level of Yuanxin Management or business backbone." Wan Yongliang chuckled and winked: "Brothers from Yuanxin have all seen the world. Firstly, they won't be unable to walk when they see beautiful women. Secondly, they can also promote our Yuanxin . Three... maybe we can also solve the emotional problems of the brothers, right."

"..." Su Yuanshan was speechless for a while, but after thinking about it, he laughed and said: "Okay, let people see what our science and engineering men are like - I'm warning you, don't find me a few normal ones, don't either An elm-headed person, or a glib tongue..."

"As for the emotional issues, forget it..."

"Mr. Shan, you are biased against female celebrities." Wan Yongliang laughed.

"Cut..." Su Yuanshan said "cut" first, but then fell silent. After a moment, he whispered softly: "Old Wan, you know me. You said I have moral obsessiveness? I don't." I admit it. But I have strong self-control, I admit it."

"I don't want to limit others by myself, but we are in a position where we can decide a person's fate with just a few gestures... If we really do as we please..." Su Yuanshan said and looked at Wan Yongliang: "Don't you need me to make it clear?"

Wan Yongliang also took a gentle breath and smiled slightly: "Mr. Shan, don't underestimate me, Lao Wan."

"Well, no, don't worry about anything...I'm not asking anyone to do anything...but our group of people, at best, are idealists, at worst, we want to make big things happen, occasionally It's okay for a while, but it's boring to pursue some belt-tightening things all day long, don't you think so?"

"Haha, yes."

"Yeah." Su Yuanshan nodded and said no more. No one is a saint, and he is not qualified to ask anyone to be a saint. He can only say that as long as his partners can be consistent with his pursuit, then he cannot ask for too much.

If the water is clear, there will be no fish.

But after continuing to turn the pages, Su Yuanshan frowned.

"So many braid scenes?"

"Huh? Braid drama?" Wan Yongliang was slightly startled: "Qing Palace drama?"

(I have a hunch that this is going to be reported, but I just want to write, hehe.)

"Um."

"Because Return of the Pearl, Private Interview in Incognito Clothes is waiting for the drama to become popular, and we found out that there are several high-quality Qing historical dramas in China that are already being prepared or filmed...so we plan to keep up..."

Su Yuanshan snorted lightly.

"What's there to take pictures of? The Industrial Revolution is in full swing, and you're here to pay a private visit incognito? It's such a prosperous time?"

Wan Yongliang: "..."

"Stop following the trend."

"Okay." Wan Yongliang nodded immediately when he saw Su Yuanshan's rare expression of disgust.

"Let's shoot something about the real prosperous times... Or maybe shoot science fiction - you should know that Mr. Xi said a long time ago that science fiction works are one of the symbols that measure a country's technological level and modern industrial capabilities. You see In the past few decades, was science fiction all done by Americans and Chinese?"

"……yes."

"Why is that? Because their technological level is in place. Although our technological level is not yet up to Nimei's level, we are still rising... So what if we film it? By the way, it can also improve the level of the domestic special effects industry. .”

Wan Yongliang smiled and nodded helplessly: "...Okay."

He could see that when Su Yuanshan talked about science fiction, he really said it "willfully", without the determination and preparation that he used when talking about business direction before.

In other words, if you shoot it, you will most likely lose money.

But Mr. Shan said so...what else could he say? Of course I am satisfied.

Su Yuanshan continued to read a few pages. To be fair, he really just wanted to satisfy his curiosity and see what the development plan was - if he was really asked to judge which drama was popular or not, he really couldn't do it.

If he knew that reality shows were going to be very popular, he would have already made a huge mistake, okay?

Therefore, Su Yuanshan did not continue to "layman's guidance to expert".

"Okay, anyway, you are an expert now and I am a layman." Su Yuanshan closed the document and said with a smile: "Is there anything else?"

"One last thing." Wan Yongliang raised a finger and said with a smile.

"explain."

"We want to get a website."

Su Yuanshan was startled and said inexplicably: "Fuck it, tell me what to say..."

"No, no, we are not building an ordinary website."

"What is that? Portal?" Su Yuanshan immediately became alert.

Now if we start building a portal from scratch, it is really just a waste of money. If Wan Yongliang really thought so, he would stop it immediately.

"No, ah...how can I describe it to you? This was actually the idea of ​​one of our frontline reporters." Wan Yongliang stood up as he spoke: "It is a website about videos. If you are interested, I will He will call you over and tell you face to face."

Video website?

Su Yuanshan was startled again. But then, he nodded: "Okay, but I don't have much time. I have to go home for dinner later..."

"Well, it's okay. I'll call him over right away - and you know this guy too."

"who?"

"Hero reporter." Wan Yongliang chuckled and walked out of the office.
