I am a director, but I have the skills of an actor

Chapter 242
"Qingshan, I have something, please help me refer to it."

Beside the beach with clear water and blue sky, Chen Yumo, who was about to fall asleep, was lying on a sun lounger. He suddenly cheered up and looked sideways at Wanqing Mountain.

Wan Qingshan, who had not exercised for a long time and had gained some weight due to his age, rubbed his slightly protruding belly, cheered up, sat up and said, "What's the matter?"

"A few days ago, people from Penguin came to talk to me. They wanted to buy the film and television network broadcast rights from me.

Originally I didn't want to sell it, but the people at Penguin seemed to have guessed what I was thinking.

They said that the Internet has developed to this stage, and film and television network copyrights have long been planned, but why piracy is still prevalent online? There is a deep exchange of interests in these aspects.

I hold the online broadcast copyrights of thousands of movies and TV shows, and the company that makes the video broadcast platform will not make a wedding dress for me to combat piracy.

I later asked my dad what he meant. My dad said that the people at Penguin were right. If I didn’t sell these copyrights, they wouldn’t crack down on piracy. Then the film and television network broadcast copyrights in my hands would have a price but no market. .

If this is the case, then I can only sell the copyright.I contacted several video companies and asked them to come up with prices.

In terms of cash, Penguin offered the highest price of 40 billion, but Jia Yueting, the boss of LeTV, was willing to exchange 10% of LeTV's shares. LeTV's current market value is more than 400 billion, which is similar to Penguin's.

Qingshan, who do you think I should sell to? "

Wan Qingshan, who had just finished a sip of juice, put down the juice cup and said without thinking, "Selling to Penguin, no matter what industry, as long as it involves the Internet, it will be very expensive. The same goes for online video playback platforms. In recent years, there has been no No way to make a profit.

Also, LeTV is a listed company, and it is impossible to exchange 10% of its total equity with you.

The exchange mentioned by Jia Yueting is likely to involve him giving up 10% of his shares in exchange for you.

It is very likely that they will not exchange it directly, but after obtaining the copyright through an intermediary company and then selling it to LeTV, the price may be more than 40 billion. Jia Yueting is equivalent to cashing out 40 billion and making a huge profit.

He can even fight with nothing.

Obtain the copyright through an intermediary company, then LeTV will issue additional equity at a very low price, and then exchange most of the additional equity with the intermediary company for the copyright, and then transfer it to you.

Then the partners will raise the stock price, and when the time comes, they can sell the remaining additional capital.

Over and over again, you get the copyright for nothing, and you can also make money from the additional shares issued and sold.

Finally, if LeTV had not taken off, Jia Yueting would have cashed out a large amount of money. LeTV could have sold thousands of film and television network rights, and other investors would have been able to recover most of their initial investment.

As for you, you have nothing.If the copyright is exchanged for shares, you will suffer a big loss! "

When Wan Qingshan mentioned that Jia Yueting was looking for an intermediary company, Chen Yumo sat up in surprise. When Wan Qingshan finished speaking, Chen Yumo immediately said in surprise, "Qingshan, how do you know this?"

“I didn’t buy stocks before, so I have to understand a little bit about these things, otherwise I would be easily fooled.

In addition, Qingshan Media Company is about to go public, so I have to learn more knowledge in this area. Maybe in the future, I will have to use these methods when I am short of money. "

Will Wanqingshan be short of money?This is the most outrageous joke Chen Yumo has ever heard.

She threw a hygienic eye, picked up a glass of juice on the small round table and took a sip. After putting down the juice, she said,

"Qingshan, regardless of what Jia Yueting will do, what do you think the prospects of video playback are?

Well, if the prospects are good, I can talk to other video playback companies. There will definitely be companies willing to exchange shares with me. "

Wan Qingshan frowned slightly, Chen Yumo had really changed now.Now she is so ambitious that neither the Chen Group nor the real estate company can satisfy her.

Wan Qingshan thought for a moment and said, "Video playback has great prospects. As the economy develops and people have enough food and clothing, they will naturally think of entertainment.

Film, television, games, and other entertainment industries have great prospects.

In addition, electronic products are becoming more and more developed. I estimate that within a few years, TV sets will be eliminated, and video playback platforms will probably become the TV stations of the past!
However, although the prospects are good, there are also great risks.

Let’s not talk about burning money in the early stage of development, but let’s talk about piracy.

Even if there is a comprehensive crackdown on piracy, you can still find pirated copies online if you really want to look for them.

Coupled with the public’s lack of awareness of genuine consumption, it is estimated that within a few years, video playback platforms will not be able to make money, and will have to spend a lot of money to compete for customers.

Yumo, I advise you not to invest in this industry. If you really want to find an industry to invest in, then invest in e-commerce. "

"E-commerce? No, the pattern of e-commerce has been determined now.

Small companies are on the verge of bankruptcy. If I want to invest in big companies, they won’t let me invest.

If you do it yourself, you won’t be able to do it. Once you develop a little better, you will be surrounded by Taobao and others. "

Chen Yumo was very surprised. E-commerce is very popular now, but the industry structure has been set, and it is difficult to get involved. She couldn't figure it out. Under such circumstances, Wan Qingshan actually persuaded her to invest in e-commerce.

“I know that the overall pattern of e-commerce has been decided, but the subdivisions have not yet been decided.

Once you start this kind of subdivided industry, Taobao and others will not be able to immediately encircle and suppress you. Even if they do encircle and suppress you later, if you have the upper hand, you may not necessarily fail.

Even if it fails, you will have the upper hand and have many stable users. The worst result is that the company will be acquired and you will take the money and leave.

Besides, there is always some risk in business, and the risk in e-commerce should be lower than in other industries. "

Chen Yumo thought for a while and nodded slightly, "Then tell me which sub-sectors are worth investing in."

"By the way, if I were to do it myself, which industry segment would be better?" Chen Yumo added.

“Well, if we invest, we will focus on e-commerce of agricultural products.

Nowadays, e-commerce basically deals with clothing, electronics, and other aspects, but few people do agricultural products.

It is the same in every country. When the economy reaches a certain stage, the public will start to pay attention to health, and then there will be a big market for agricultural products.

If you want to make it yourself, take it easy and make overseas products.

As the economy develops, the social environment and culture will make the public aware that overseas products are better than domestic products.

Although this area is small in size, it is highly profitable.At the same time, there is another advantage, that is, the initial development funds will be much less and the time will be much shorter.

If it develops well, it will be profitable in one or two years. It happens that the second brother is engaged in international trade. If you want to do something, you can ask him to cooperate, which can save a lot of trouble. "

Chen Yumo's eyes lit up when Wan Qingshan talked about agricultural products. Wan Qingshan's words reminded her of Chen Yanfeng and some company bosses. They all like to let people go to the countryside to buy agricultural products.

More importantly, she knew that her employees often drove to rural areas more than ten miles away to buy groceries on weekends.

Chen Yumo knows the reason why she is willing to go more than ten miles away to buy groceries. Many times, she will also ask her subordinates to bring some groceries for her.

There was the milk powder incident three years ago, the "gutter oil" incident the year before that, and last year there was news about excessive pesticide residues in supermarkets!

Anyone who reads this series of news will be scared and worry about their own food.

For agricultural products, not to mention how big the market will be in the future, the market is not small now. White-collar families in cities, who have the conditions, have begun to pay attention to food health.

When Wanqingshan talked about overseas products, Chen Yumo straightened his back, his face full of surprise, and his eyes looking closely at Wanqingshan were full of heat, as if he wanted to eat Wanqingshan.

This 'eating' is not 'eating' in that sense!
In 08, Wanqingshan dared to borrow [-] billion to buy land. Later, Wanqingshan really suppressed it and housing prices skyrocketed. At that time, Chen Yumo marveled at Wanqingshan's vision.

But now that the pattern of e-commerce has been established, Wan Qingshan can think of two promising subdivisions. This vision makes her really want to recruit Wan Qingshan to the company and make her the general manager.

She also knew that it was impossible for Wan Qingshan to be the general manager for her. After suppressing the heat in her heart, she thought about it and said,

“The two sub-sectors you mentioned are both good, the agricultural products are well done and they have great prospects.

When the economy improves further and there are more elderly people, there will definitely be more people paying attention to diet, and the market will be bigger by then.

As for making overseas products, well, as you said, the scale is not big, but it is still a good business.

But you can’t do everything. You should focus on cosmetics and clothing, and specialize in women’s business.

Regardless of whether they have money or not, men's desire to spend is not as good as that of women. Just like you, if I hadn't helped you prepare, you might not even be able to buy a dress all year round.

As for cosmetics and clothing, as long as you negotiate long-term cooperation with those big companies, you can get the prices of domestic suppliers.

These things are expensive to sell, but the cost is not high. They are all huge profit industries, which are much more profitable than making agricultural products. "

Wan Qingshan curled his lips and said, "You know these better than me. You can do it yourself. I'm just giving you an idea."

Chen Yumo's temperament has changed a bit now, and she has become a bit resolute. Wan Qingshan came up with an idea today, and she flew back to China the next day.

With Chen Yumo gone, Wan Qingshan will continue to focus on the later stages of "Dallas Buyers Club".

The later stages of the movie were not troublesome, except that Leonardo came to ask about the progress from time to time, and Wan Qingshan kept an eye on it.

In mid-October, the post-production of "Dallas Buyers Club" was completed. After Wan Qingshan handed over the film to Leonardo, he immediately found a lawyer to meet with Koch.

Regarding "Arti", after Koch took the script back to the company, a group of Columbia executives immediately held a meeting to discuss it.

Although the script is a bit abnormal, as Koch said, Wanqingshan is now a winner, and winners can make them speechless.

After the meeting, Koch called Wan Qingshan to inform him that the company had no interest in the script and asked Wan Qingshan when he would sign the contract.

At that time, Wan Qingshan was busy with the later stages, so he said he would wait until he was finished before signing the contract.

At a street coffee stall, under a sun umbrella, the lawyer read the contract prepared by Koch and said there was no problem, so Wan Qingshan signed the contract.

As soon as the contract was signed, the lawyer left first. Then, Wan Qingshan took a sip of coffee and said,

"Ms. Koch, I will fly back to China the day after tomorrow to prepare for the movie. I don't know if Colombia will send someone to go to China with me, or if we will come back later when filming starts."

"Evan, the company has agreed before that I will go to China with you this time.

Evan, it’s not that I don’t believe you, but it’s better to be open about some things, isn’t it? "

"OK, I don't care. I don't have any other meaning. I just want to tell you that I am going back to China to prepare for the movie. If you have anything to prepare, you can do it first."

After getting down to business, Wan Qingshan and Koch didn't talk much and went back to prepare.

The day after tomorrow, Wan Qingshan flew to China with Koch and three people sent from Colombia.

After landing in Shenzhen, the four Kochs went to see Hillier first, while Wan Qingshan was picked up by Chen Yumo and went home directly.

After arriving home, Chen Yumo couldn't bear it anymore.

"Qingshan, you really gave up the bell ringer to Zhang Zhao. This is your first company to be listed, so you let someone else ring the bell? You can still change the bell ringer now. Once the list is confirmed tomorrow, it will not be good. changed."

Everything about Qingshan Media's listing has been settled. The day after tomorrow is the day when the bell will ring for listing. Before that, Chen Yumo called Wan Qingshan and asked him to come back before the listing to be the bell ringer.

When he came back, Wan Qingshan agreed, but when he was the bell ringer, he refused.

This makes Chen Yumo a little confused. Even if other bosses don't care about anything, they will definitely not let go of the bell ringer for the IPO, but Wan Qingshan doesn't want to be the bell ringer?
"If we don't change, let Zhang Zhao ring the bell. He has always been in charge of Qingshan Media. He has the greatest credit for the company's development and listing. It is quite appropriate for him to ring the bell."

Wan Qingshan really has no intention of being in the limelight. He is a public figure, so there is no harm in keeping a low profile sometimes.

He didn't want to think about this kind of limelight that didn't bring any real benefits. If Qingshan Media hadn't been listed, it would be unreasonable for his boss not to be there, so he didn't plan to go.

The Qingshan Department is well-known in the industry and has some reputation outside the world, but Wan Qingshan does not want the name of the Qingshan Department to be too famous outside.

He had been thinking some time ago that Qingshan Cinema Line would no longer be listed on the market.

I even thought about changing the name of the Qingshan Cinema Line without adding the word Qingshan. Over time, the outside world might forget about the Qingshan Cinema Line.

Previously, on the phone, Wan Qingshan refused to be the bell ringer. Chen Yumo asked Wan Qingshan, "Are you sure you don't want to be the bell ringer?" '.

Now that Wan Qingshan refused again, Chen Yumo said no more.

At noon the next day, when Wan Qingshan was at home thinking about actors for "Ati", Chen Yumo, who had gone to work at the company in the morning, called.

Then, Wan Qingshan gave up thinking about being an actor and went to Chen Yanfeng's house.

After lunch, Chen Yanfeng called Wan Qingshan and Chen Yumo to the study.

"Qingshan, how big a market do you think the e-commerce market for agricultural products has?"

Chen Yanfeng's first words made Wan Qingshan a little surprised.

Nowadays, the real estate industry is very profitable, and the upstream building materials industry is also making huge profits. Why did Chen Yanfeng suddenly want to start an e-commerce for agricultural products?

Chen Yanfeng saw Wan Qingshan's surprised expression, and he immediately understood what Wan Qingshan was thinking.

“Qingshan, I just want to ask now, if the market is not big, then just do it on a small scale.

If the market is big, I will think about it carefully before making a decision. "

Wan Qingshan thought for a moment and replied, "Dad, I haven't studied it carefully, so I really can't be sure how big the market is."

Chen Yanfeng frowned slightly and said, "Qingshan, which one do you think has more development prospects, the agricultural products or the building materials industry?"

Wan Qingshan suddenly looked at Chen Yanfeng in surprise, he was planning to change his career!
Not to mention that the building materials industry is very profitable now, but Chen Yanfeng has been in the building materials industry for so many years. Why did he suddenly want to change his career?

"Qingshan, dad feels that the current real estate industry is developing too fast, divorced from the overall social economy, and the bubble is too big. A catastrophe is likely to break out in the real estate industry within a few years. What do you think?"

Chen Yumo looked closely at Wanqing Mountain, wanting to hear it from Wanqing Mountain, but he did not agree with this statement.

After Chen Yumo returned to China with Wan Qingshan's suggestion, the first thing he did was to sell the online broadcast rights of thousands of movies and TV series to Penguin, and then consulted Chen Yanfeng about which agricultural products or overseas products would be better used for e-commerce. Do something.

But unexpectedly, after Chen Yanfeng heard this, he directly said that if you want to make overseas products, let Chen's company make the agricultural products.

Chen Yumo has no objection to Chen's company's e-commerce of agricultural products, but after hearing that Chen Yanfeng plans to focus on e-commerce of agricultural products, the building materials business will gradually shrink.

She strongly disagrees with this, and she also disagrees with Chen Yanfeng's statement that real estate is brewing with big risks.

Wan Qingshan was so surprised that his eyes almost popped out of his head. Chen Yanfeng's eyes were so vicious!

"Well, I don't know anything else, but I agree with what dad said. In a normal market economy, it is impossible for an industry to be too far away from the entire social economy."

Wan Qingshan's words disappointed Chen Yumo. She curled her lips and said unconvinced, "Then why are companies like Evergrande, Country Garden, and Vanke still acquiring land on a large scale? Don't they see the risks?"

Wan Qingshan didn't know what to say, but Chen Yanfeng said in a scolding tone, "You, how big are they now? How can it be so easy to change careers? Also, do you know their internal situation?"

Seeing that although Chen Yumo didn't speak, his expression was still unconvinced, Chen Yanfeng immediately frowned.

"I have taught you before that when doing business, the most important thing to avoid is following the herd.

If everyone thinks this is a good business, then it must be risky.

It’s the same in any industry. It’s a good business at first, but when there are more people doing it, competition will increase, and the risks will naturally increase.

If there are many people doing it, but there is no risk on the surface, it can only mean that the risk has not been revealed for the time being.

The longer this risk is delayed, the greater the consequences will be when it breaks out.

This is a normal economic law and cannot be avoided in any industry.

It has been almost four years since real estate became a financial reservoir. In four years, housing prices in many places have doubled several times, and they have completely separated from public income.

Normally speaking, after four years of rapid development, real estate has been temporarily saturated and it should be difficult to do so.

But now most people still think that investing in real estate is very profitable, which means that the risks have not been exposed for the time being.

Real estate is now full of bubbles. If it bursts, it will not be just a few real estate companies that fall. By then, the entire industry may be reshuffled, and construction materials will also be greatly affected.

Even if there are measures to stabilize real estate, it will only be to stabilize it. There will definitely not be as many land construction projects as there are now. For the building materials industry, this is the same as the collapse of the real estate industry.

Yumo, let me tell you, if you want to survive in the shopping mall, you must have a sense of risk, otherwise you will go bankrupt if a storm hits.

If you don't have enough sensitivity to prevent risks, I really don't feel confident about leaving Chen's company to you. "

Chen Yanfeng's sincere teachings made Chen Yumo's expression change. She began to think in her mind, is real estate really risky?

When Chen Yanfeng saw this, he felt relieved in his heart. If Chen Yumo still thought that real estate was not risky, then his teachings in the past few years would be in vain. Chen's company really cannot be left to Chen Yumo.

Chen Yanfeng looked at Wan Qingshan, "Qingshan, tell me, how about I convert Chen's company into an e-commerce for agricultural products?"

Wan Qingshan thought carefully in his heart, "Dad, I think it's okay, no matter how things change, food, clothing, housing and transportation are always inseparable.

After a certain stage of economic development, everyone will definitely pay attention to diet and health, and there will definitely be a market for agricultural products by then.

However, if you want to transfer Chen's company to e-commerce for agricultural products, then I suggest that we focus on agriculture and supplement it with e-commerce. "

Chen Yanfeng's eyes lit up.

In fact, when Chen Yumo consulted with him about the two industries, he immediately concluded that e-commerce of agricultural products had more development prospects and lower risks than the construction industry, which is already risky. It was very suitable for Chen's company to switch to e-commerce of agricultural products.

He asked Wan Qingshan, which one has prospects, e-commerce in agricultural products or the building materials industry? He just wanted to follow the words and ask Wan Qingshan what he thought of the development method.

He had previously convened a meeting with senior managers of Chen's company. Their suggestions could be implemented, but the focus would be on e-commerce, and agricultural products could be purchased directly from various places.

This suggestion is good. It is an asset-light, fast-turnover development method that can quickly expand the scale. However, Chen Yanfeng always felt that something was wrong, so he wanted to ask Wan Qingshan for his opinion.

"Tell me, why should we focus on agriculture?"

“Dad, agricultural products are not clothing or electronic products, they are things you eat.

And the production of agricultural products is aimed at people who pay attention to diet, and they care about quality.

If the quality is not good, why should I buy it from you? It is the same as buying it in any supermarket.

Only by controlling the source and controlling the quality can you start this business. "

Wan Qingshan's words made Chen Yanfeng suddenly think of another thing, and he immediately looked at Chen Yumo, who was still thinking.

"Yu Mo, how is the commercial plaza doing now?"

"what!"

After Chen Yumo came back to his senses, he was surprised, and then what Chen Yanfeng just said entered his mind.

"In first- and second-tier cities, basically every city has four or five commercial plazas. Because land acquisition does not include land in third- and fourth-tier cities, so now there are only a few commercial plazas in third- and fourth-tier cities."

Chen Yanfeng suddenly frowned. Seeing this, Wan Qingshan asked, "Dad, are you planning not to do online business? You will specialize in offline business and want to use the commercial plaza to expand offline sales points?"

"Qingshan, the supermarket you just mentioned, I thought of a problem. When agricultural products are sold online, logistics is a big problem.

So I plan to do both offline and online at the same time. Offline shopping malls not only sell agricultural products, but also can be used for online shopping in the surrounding area. This can also ensure that the agricultural products are delivered to customers freshly. "

Wan Qingshan looked a little weird. If he did it this way, it would be the same as going to Meituan. He just did it by himself without giving Meituan a commission.

“Dad, if that’s the case, you are overweighting your assets.

To produce agricultural products yourself, you have to plant and raise them on contracted land in various places. In addition, you have to build shopping malls in every city. This asset is too heavy. I'm afraid it won't be able to do it without hundreds of billions. "

"If you focus on assets, just focus on assets, and develop slowly. I will do it in first- and second-tier cities first, and when the real estate bubble bursts, I will go to third- and fourth-tier cities to develop.

Qingshan, tell me, is this development model feasible? "

Wan Qingshan's thoughts raced for a while and he replied, "Okay, combining online and offline is safer than a single channel."

"Then this is how it goes!"

Chen Yumo curled his lips aside and didn't even ask about her as the successor of Chen's company. This determined the future development model. Then wouldn't she, as the successor, just be in name?

She was cursing in her heart, but Chen Yumo couldn't say anything. When she was meditating just now, she compared the current situation with the Hainan real estate bubble. Although it was different in many aspects, the real source was the same, crazy speculation, and housing prices rising every day.

Although he has not reached the level of Hainan before, he is still a little slim, and he really has to wait until then to think about getting out.

She agreed with Chen Yanfeng's words that big risks are brewing in the real estate industry.

Although the building materials industry seems to have no risk, real estate will collapse when it arrives, but the building materials industry will not collapse.

But there is no prospect for the building materials industry. Without building houses, infrastructure alone cannot support the continued development of so many building materials companies.

After she agreed, she suddenly thought back to the past few years and found that she seemed to be too radical and did not think carefully about some things in advance.

Therefore, it is hard for her to say anything without asking her opinion. She is a bit unqualified as the successor now!
