Huayu Zhihao

Chapter 692 Victory Conference

"To sum up, in 2007, Haotian Films won a total box office of 3.91 million yuan, accounting for 10% of the total box office in the mainland, with a net profit of 2.9228 million yuan!" Chen Guofu said.

Everyone couldn't help raising their brows when they heard the words, the net profit was more than 2.9 million, close to 3 million, this is a bit too scary!
Now, the annual net profit of many big companies is not as much as that of Haotian Films!
Of course, everyone knows that the net profit of 2.9 million is basically earned by Chen Hao's "Pacific Rim".

This is also the reason why Haotian Films does not need financing like Huayi and Chengtian, and can also support the entire Haotian Holdings.

To say that Chen Hao is Haotian's mainstay is an understatement, he is much more important than Feng Dapao to Huayi.

The key is that Chen Hao's success is basically impossible to replicate, because you can't find a second Huaxia director whose movies can sell well in Europe and America!

Being able to eat well in Europe and the United States and earn a lot of dollars is the core driving force for Chen Hao to gradually make a fortune!

"In 2008, the company will invest in the production of 7 films, namely "Ghost in the Heart", "The Wind", "Spike Fang", "Crazy Racing", "Nightclub", "My Girlhood" and Mr. Chen's new film.

Among them, "Ghost in the Heart" invested 3500 million, "The Wind" cost 6000 million, "Spike" 2200 million, "Crazy Racing" 1000 million, "Nightclub" 400 million, and "My Girls' Generation" 1500 million.

Mr. Chen's investment in new films is 1.6 million, among which "Spike Fang" is the main film promoted by the company's new director support plan in 2008!

That is to say, the company's total film investment in 2008 will be as high as 3.06 million RMB! "Chen Guofu said.

The total investment of Chen Hao's new film is 2.5 million RMB, of which Haotian Film invested 1.6 million RMB, and Huaying, Pauli Bernard and Guangxian each invested 3000 million RMB!

"Ghost in the Heart" is the love thriller that Tenghua wants to shoot. Speaking of which, Tenghua's filming is not very good. If "Broken Love 33 Days" hadn't been released, "Magic City Fortress" alone would probably have Was scolded to death.

But Tenghua is good at filming TV series, which is why Chen Hao wants to sign him.

"The Wind" is China's first spy film, produced and directed by Chen Guofu.

"Spike Fang" was a script that Wu Jing voted for Chen Hao. Although he knew that the film would lose money, Chen Hao still voted for it. The icing on the cake is like giving charcoal in the snow!
And if you are cheated, you can also lose your favor.

"Crazy Racing" is the second part of Ning Hao's crazy series.

"Nightclub" is the first time Yang Qing picked up the guide after leaving Chen Hao, and he didn't dare to invest more, so he took 400 million to test the waters first.

As for "My Girlhood", it was written by Chen Hao specially for Ya Ya, and it was still directed by Yu Feihong.

"Haotian Management now has a total of 10 artistes, 4 actors and 6 singers. Among them, Xiaohu had no works released last year, and Yaya and Tang Tang starred in "Struggle" and "Beauty's Scheming".

The ratings of the two TV series are very high on the provincial satellite TV, and their popularity continues to rise, and they have become the most popular two female roles in China.

Deng Chao's works include "Pacific Rim", which is as popular as Chen Kun, and has received 4 endorsements, while commercial performances have not received many due to busy filming.

In terms of singers, Zhang Hanyun, Xue Qianqian, and Zhang Jie have all released an album, which has sold well, and there are also many endorsements and commercial performances.

The total revenue of the company in 2007 was RMB 3350 million, an increase of 17.73% year-on-year, and the net profit was RMB 1281 million, an increase of 6.3% year-on-year. "Li Wanli said.

"Next, let me talk about the business of Haotian Advertising last year." Chen Hao said, "In 2007, the company accepted a total of 98 cases, a year-on-year increase of 13.95%.

Among them, there are 32 advertising businesses, 19 photo shoots, 17 MV shootings, and 30 film promotion businesses, with a total revenue of 3600 million.

After excluding costs and taxes, the net profit was 1365 million, a year-on-year increase of 24.09%. "

"Haotian Copyright purchased the copyrights of 8 novels last year, including "Du Lala's Promotion", "Scary Step by Step", "The Legend of Zhen Huan in the Harem", and "Leave the Last Bullet to Me", and spent a total of 950 million yuan RMB!

In terms of income, it made a profit of 100 million, and "The Queen of the World" and "Snow Leopard" each earned 50! "Xiaoying replied.

With the continuous success of novel adaptations of film and television dramas, although the concept of IP is not yet mature, the prices of novels with adaptation potential have increased significantly.

2006年买下小说版权10部是400万，去年已经是8本涨到950万了！

Then, Chen Hao sold it to his film and television company at a low price again, what a loss!

"Let me talk about Qidian Chinese Internet cafes. With the large investment last year, Qidian's online recharge has been on the right track, so that we will not lose in the recharge competition with Shengda Literature outlets all over the country.

Moreover, with the improvement of remuneration and the expansion of other distribution channels such as novel publishing and comic adaptation, we have retained a large number of excellent writers and started to fight back against Shengda Literature.

Last year, Qidian’s market share has increased, and now it has reached 68%, while Shengda Literature has only 25%.

In addition, Qidian also won many honors last year.

In the 2007 Excellent Literature Website Recommendation Activity organized by the Internet Development Research Center of Huaxia Academy of Social Sciences, Huaxia Literature Network, and Huaxia Contemporary Literature Research Association.

Qidian Chinese.com won three honors: Best Original Platform, Top Ten Most Influential Literature Websites, and Websites with Outstanding Contributions to Online Literature.

At the 2007 Best Business Model Huaxia Summit, the commercialization model of Internet literature promoted by Qidian won the "2007 Future Star of Business Model".

At the same time, Qidian Mobile Bookstore ranked among the top 2007 in the 50 third China Excellent Wireless Internet Site Top 50 selection activity. "Wu Wenhui said.

Chen Hao nodded when he heard the words. Chen Hao didn't think much about honors, but the market share was the most important.

Now Qidian's market share is close to 7%, it seems that last year's 8000 million was very effective.

And in another two years, I am afraid that Chen Tianqiao will not spend so much time on Shengda Literature, and Qidian's market share will only be even more terrifying by then.

It’s just that when BAT enters the market in the future, Qidian will face huge challenges!
"The company published the 10 most popular online novels last year, and sold a total of 105 million copies, with a net profit of 620 million.

At the same time, 10 comics such as "Zhu Xian" and "Legend of Little Soldier" launched by Qidian Comics have been enthusiastically sought after by fans. Although the comic website is still losing money for the time being, it has become the second largest comic website in the country. "Wu Wenhui said and glanced at Chang Hongsong.

Obviously, the one with the most registered users in the country must have acquired the Yaoqi Haoyou Yaoqi Anime Network!

"In 2008, the company will continue to expand distribution channels such as novel publishing and manga adaptation, and we have selected 10 novels.

They are "1911 New China", "Airspeed Star Trace", "Supreme Rascal", "Evil Wind Song", "I am the only fairy", "Shu Mountain", "We Are the Champions", "Raptors Crossing the River", " World of Online Games" and "Chu's Spring and Autumn"! "Wu Wenhui said.

Chang Hongsong asked with a smile, "Qidian Comics has opened ten more comics? Is there enough talent?"

Wu Wenhui laughed after hearing this, "We already have a signing mechanism and have recruited many newcomers to join, so there is no major problem."

Chen Hao looked at the two and shook his head. Wu Wenhui poached Chang Hongsong's corner, and now the animation websites of the two are ranked first and second respectively, so it's no wonder that the competition is fierce.

"Okay, then I'll wait for the day when Qidian completely defeats Shengda." Chen Hao said.

It seems that Qidian does not need to invest for the time being this year, which is good news.

"Next, let me report on the development of Haotian Cinema Investment Management Company last year. The year before last, the company had three theater circuits that had been built and one theater circuit that had just started construction.

The overall work of the company in 2007 was to integrate all the theaters it owns and participates in investment, and then set up a Sihai Haotian theater chain.

After more than a year of hard work, the Four Seas Haotian Cinemas has finally been established. Currently, the Four Seas Haotian Cinemas has 66 theaters of its own, with a total of 320 screens.

Including the 25 screens of the 90 franchised theaters, Sihai Cinemas now has a total of 410 screens. If the combined scale of the three Huaying theaters is not counted, Sihai Haotian Cinemas is the largest theater chain in the mainland.

After the merger and joining of the Sihai Haotian Cinemas, the company holds a total of 73% of the shares, Huaying 5%, Moying 13%, and CGV 9%! " Chen Xiangang said.

Chen Hao nodded when he heard the words. Previously, Haotian Cinemas had a total of 4 theaters, and management was relatively troublesome. In order to facilitate management and expand the scale and influence of the theaters.

Now it has merged into a Four Seas Haotian cinema chain, and has become the largest cinema chain in the country!

This can reduce management costs, and is more conducive to the scheduling of Haotian Films.

At the same time, building a good relationship with Huaying, Moying and South Korea's CGV will make Haotian Films have no disadvantages in scheduling films in the future!
"Although the number of theaters of the company has not increased, the cumulative box office of Cosmopolitan Haotian Cinemas in 2007 has successfully exceeded 1.0520 million yuan, reaching 15.28 million yuan, a year-on-year increase of [-]%.

In 2007, Sihai Haotian Cinemas made a box office profit of RMB 6732 million, plus revenues of RMB 900 million from snacks, drinks, and pre-screening advertisements. After deducting basic expenses such as wages, training, rent, and taxes, the net profit was RMB 4487 million! " Chen Xiangang said.

Chen Hao nodded when he heard the words. In 2007, Haotian Cinemas stopped expanding, but began to integrate internally, and established Sihai Haotian Cinemas with Moying, Huaying and CGV.

Although the number of screens has not increased, but just looking at the number of screens alone, Sihai Haotian is still the leader of the mainland theaters, and the box office has successfully broken through [-] million for the first time, which is not a small progress.

And now it has become a theater company with better management, saving management costs, and preparing for future expansion.

"Then let me talk about the special effects of Haotian!" Chang Hongsong said with a smile, "In 2007, the company mainly participated in the production of "Pacific Rim" and "Iron Man", and at the same time began to produce animated films "How to Train Your Dragon" and " Despicable Me"!
On "Pacific Rim" and "Iron Man", the company earned a total of 4200 million yuan.

At the same time, "Kung Fu Panda", which took the company 4 years to produce, has cut a global box office of 6.13 million US dollars today, and the company's revenue has exceeded 15 billion yuan!

However, the company aggressively recruited new employees last year, and now Haotian Special Effects has more than 600 people, becoming the company with the largest number of Haotian holdings.

而在2008年，公司又立项了3部动画电影，除了投资9000万人民币的《功夫熊猫2》以及6000万的《西游记之大圣归来》之外。

The company also ushered in a relatively special team "Big Fish and Begonia". After directly accepting this working group, the company invested 2000 million RMB to produce their project "Big Fish and Begonia"!
The company's more than 600 people are now divided into 8 working groups, each of the 5 animation films is a group, and then 3 working groups are left to take on Mr. Chen and outside jobs.

However, Haotian Special Effects will continue to recruit new people. Compared with world-class special effects studios, the number of people there is more than a thousand, even reaching 2000. The scale of Haotian Special Effects needs to be further expanded. "Chang Hongsong said.

Everyone couldn't help but be speechless when they heard the words. A Haotian special effects actually employs more than 600 people, which is really too many.

However, the global box office of "Kung Fu Panda" is 6.13 million US dollars, which is too enviable.

The target of 2000 people is really scary, but Haotian Special Effects does have such strength.

Although the production cycle of an animated film is often as long as 3-4 years, Haotian Special Effects really does not open for three years, and it takes three years to develop!

The profit of a "Kung Fu Panda" is comparable to the current 10-year net profit of Haotian Films!
I just don't know if Haotian Special Effects can always be successful, otherwise it will be just around the corner to become the world's top special effects company.

And judging from the nomination of "Kung Fu Panda" for the US Golden Globe Awards, both honor and box office, Chen Hao was indeed prescient in investing huge sums of money in creating Haotian special effects!
"Everyone knows the results of "Kung Fu Panda". Haotian special effects not only won the box office, but also let Europe and the United States see the improvement of China's special effects. This is indeed commendable and even proud." Chen Hao applauded with a smile.

"Clap clap clap..."

Chen Hao took the lead, and everyone naturally gave face.

Seeing this, Chang Hongsong could only keep nodding his head, "It's overrated, overrated! In addition, after the acquisition of Youyaoqi, Haoyouyaoqi's registered users have exceeded 500 million, and it has become a registered user in the mainland. Most anime sites!"

Everyone couldn't help applauding again when they heard the words. The former big money swallower is now so awesome, it's really enviable!

"Haotian Productions and Shonan Satellite TV produced "2007 Happy Girls" last year, with a total investment of 5000 million yuan.

Although the ratings can still occupy the top two in the same period, the ratings are much worse than before.

In the program, the company invested a total of 2500 million. In terms of revenue, the first is the naming fee of 7000 million, followed by the advertising revenue of 3200 million, and the text message revenue of 1500 million, of which the text message revenue is also divided into 14%.

Other albums, concerts, and advertising endorsements were distributed to Haotian Music and Haotian Brokers, so Haotian Production's total revenue in 2007 was 1.17 million yuan!This result has dropped by 15.21% year-on-year!

The company scored with Shonan Satellite TV, and after deducting taxes, the company's net profit was 4972 million yuan!

At the same time, considering that the influence of Happy Girls is declining, we directly sold the remaining 50% copyright to Shonan Satellite TV after weighing it.

For this reason, the company earned another 1 million RMB!

In 2008, Haotian Production will suspend domestic work, and I will lead the company's elite backbone to South Korea to produce variety shows together with MSE.

When we have gained enough experience and ability, Haotian Production will start the production of new variety shows again. " Long Danny said.
