I Want To Be a Rich Man on Hong Kong Island

On June 18, the Yangtze River Cinemas, located in the commercial complex of the Yangtze River Center in Tsim Sha Tsui, finally opened in anticipation of the citizens of Hong Kong Island.

"Beautiful boy, how many are you? Watch that one?"

"Ten o'clock in the morning, two people, "Flower Field Wrong"!"

"Okay, popcorn and cola?"

"Sure, one popcorn, two Cokes!"

When young people look at their girlfriends, they will naturally not be stingy and only watch movies instead of buying snacks. Wouldn't it be embarrassing for them;

The tricks are not done yet, so stingy like that, success is a question!

Starting at 8:30 in the morning, at the big bar of the movie theater, four or five male and female staff were busy selling tickets, popcorn, Coke, and Sprite, and they were very busy.

Although the company had been prepared for a long time, anticipating the popularity of the opening day, it specially temporarily seconded employees to the Yangtze River Center Commercial Management Center;

But when it comes to the actual situation, everyone still sighs how there are so many people today.

At this time, Wu Guangyao and Chen Ping were in a corner, inspecting the work;

Because it is the first day of operation, this cinema model is also the first to be implemented in Asia;

Wu Guangyao is also curious about how well the people of this era accept the advanced concepts of Europe and the United States?

At the end of the first movie, a reporter from the Eastern News Agency stepped forward to interview the citizens who watched the movie.

Not surprisingly, this high-end decoration layout, advanced projection tools, and enthusiastic service attitude have been unanimously recognized by everyone!

Is it good to go on a date with your girlfriend? Wouldn't it be nice to get together with your boyfriend? Is it fragrant with the family?

Importantly, the ticket price is almost the same as outside!

Some citizens who didn't buy Coca-Cola started to worry whether the Yangtze River Cinemas would lose money;

And some citizens who bought Coke and popcorn dispelled their initial thought that the Yangtze River Theater was ripping off customers;

In such a luxurious movie theater, it seems understandable that the snacks are a bit more expensive!

Are drinks in nightclubs expensive?

It's frighteningly expensive, but the men are still rushing to get slaughtered!

"Manager Chen, what's your opinion on the next step of the Yangtze River Cinemas?" Wu Guangyao asked.

For a commercial entity such as the Yangtze River Center, Wu Guangyao estimates that he can own three or four (including Wharf) on Hong Kong Island, which would be good;

But if there are only three or four theaters in the Yangtze River Cinema, wouldn’t it make others laugh at themselves;

But now that the route of the Yangtze River Cinema Line to go to multiple theaters has been determined, there are naturally many restrictions, and the location selection is a big trouble;

Unlike other movie theaters, you can find any property and you can open it.

Chen Ping is a management talent who has drunk foreign ink, and Wu Guangyao specially asked him to lead the team to study in Europe and America in order to expand the company's vision.

Chen Ping said: "The current goal of the Yangtze River Cinemas is naturally to digest this cinema. If we want to open a multiplex cinema in the future, it will naturally be more troublesome to choose a location, but I already have a few goals."

Wu Guangyao heard that Chen Ping actually had a goal, and said curiously: "Oh, tell me!"

"The Lane Crawford department store owned by the boss currently has four stores. Each store is an independent five-story commercial building. I have visited and found that the Lane Crawford department store really uses only three to four floors, and the commercial building has a full five floors. You only need to rent the top floor from them and decorate the Yangtze River cinema line. In this way, department stores and movie theaters can even use each other to form a complementary advantage of customer sources.”

When Wu Guangyao heard this, he immediately felt that the plan was feasible!

Lane Crawford Department Store is equivalent to a high-end shopping mall. The cinema is opened in the shopping mall, which is widely used in later generations.

Wu Guangyao said: "That's good! Go talk to the president of Lane Crawford yourself and see how it works!"

Chen Ping said: "Yes, boss! I'll wait until this place is on the right track before considering opening the next Yangtze River Cinema."

Wu Guangyao nodded, it is better to leave all these trivial matters to his subordinates;

I have too many careers, and it is impossible to complete everything by myself.

"Okay, do what you want!"

Although Changjiang Cinemas is currently sharing 50/50 with the production companies, that is because they have just entered the industry and give these production companies a little sweetness;

When it develops into the overlord of theaters on Hong Kong Island, the share with the production company will naturally not be 50-50, and it will definitely increase by a few percentage points appropriately.

According to Wu Guangyao's knowledge, the share ratio between movie theaters and production companies in later generations should be about 5.7 to 4.3, which is quite good.

 …

Early the next morning, yesterday's data from Changjiang Cinemas had been delivered to Wu Guangyao's office.

Looking at Chen Ping's slightly swollen eyes, Wu Guangyao knew that at least he worked overtime last night until the wee hours of the morning.

But this kind of thing, as a boss, naturally wouldn't say things like pay attention to your body!

Now that I have chosen this job, it is also right to sacrifice once in a while;

Besides, as a leader, with a huge salary, if you don't regard the company as your own business;

How can Wu Guangyao trust a company to him?

Wu Guangyao opened the statistical table and looked at it seriously.

The data is very careful. In this era without computers, it is a very important task to do a good job in statistics.

There were 6020 moviegoers throughout the day, a very high attendance rate!

The business hours of the Changjiang Center shopping mall are from 8:30 am to 10:00 pm, and the total business hours are 13.5 hours;

According to the two-hour calculation of a movie, the Changjiang Cinemas generally line up five shows a day in one theater;

The Yangtze River Cinemas has three halls for 500 people, two halls for 280 people, and a full house is 2060 people;

Based on the calculation of five shows a day, the Yangtze River Cinemas can accommodate 10,300 people to watch movies a day.

And a total of 6,020 people watched movies a day, and the attendance rate has reached 60%;

This attendance rate is the attendance rate of a day, not the attendance rate of a game;

After all, there are peak hours for watching movies, so the attendance rate of each show is different.

There are only more than 3 million people in Hong Kong Island, and yesterday the Yangtze River Cinemas in the Yangtze River Center actually received 6,000 people, which is a huge proportion.

Of course, considering the opening of the business, we have done a lot of promotional activities in the early stage, which is why we have achieved such results!

In any case, the Yangtze River Cinemas in the center of the Yangtze River is worth more than a dozen theaters of other companies.

After the number of viewers finished watching, Wu Guangyao's face was already full of smiles, which made Chen Ping heave a sigh of relief.

Next, Wu Guangyao looked at the sales of snacks!

A total of 1,030 popcorns, 1,856 Cokes, and 1,292 Sprites were sold yesterday;

Good guy, the total turnover of snacks is as high as 2089 Hong Kong dollars, accounting for about 17% of the total turnover;

But if the profit is counted, it may account for about 30% of the total profit.

Naturally, there was a marketing event on the first day, but the gifts were coupons, coupons for popcorn or drinks for the next movie viewing, so there was no activity fee on the first day.

"It's a good start! To be honest, I was worried that our theater chain might be a bit ahead of its time. I didn't expect the attendance rate to be so high!" Wu Guangyao said with a sigh of relief.

Indeed, a movie theater that can accommodate tens of thousands of people a day is almost certainly the largest theater chain in Asia;

With such a large-scale theater chain, coupled with the intensity of publicity, if it fails, it will obviously be a joke.

Chen Ping said with a smile: "The main reason is that this theater is located in the Yangtze River Center commercial complex. At present, the daily passenger flow of the Yangtze River Center shopping plaza has reached more than 20,000 people (the tourists account for about 40%), so the Yangtze River Theater has a sufficient source of tourists. ; plus this publicity campaign has been going on for half a month, so the attendance rate of 60% is indeed very high."

Wu Guangyao nodded, it was absolutely impossible to keep the attendance rate at 60%;

The scale of the design of the Yangtze River Cinemas is designed according to the scale of the next few decades.

In the 1960s and 1970s, being able to maintain more than 30% and more than 40% on weekends is quite a remarkable achievement!

 …

The president of Baiyou Group, Fu Hongru, and the president of Lane Crawford, William, came to Lin Yueru's office together, and Wu Guangyao happened to be there too. Presumably, the two came to find Wu Guangyao for a purpose.

"Chairman, boss!" "Boss!"

Wu Guangyao nodded and motioned for the two to sit down, and Lin Yueru's female secretary poured a cup of tea for them.

Mark, the president of Lane Crawford, was originally an executive of Lane Crawford. Fu Hongru recommended him to Lin Yueru and Wu Guangyao after leading Lane Crawford Department Store for a period of time.

Wu Guangyao immediately agreed. The company under his own control has a very high proportion of foreigners;

And I don't have much distinction between Huayang and Huayang. As long as you are capable and loyal, you can be promoted.

"Tell me, what's the matter?" Wu Guangyao said.

"Boss, President Mark has a development plan for Lane Crawford. I think it's not bad, so I plan to let you take it!" Fu Hongru handed over two documents, one for Wu Guangyao and one for Lin Yueru.

Mark, the president of Lane Crawford, looked at Wu Guangyao with hope in his eyes, hoping that his plan would be adopted.

Seeing that the two of them attached so much importance, Wu Guangyao naturally looked at it seriously.

It turned out to be an acquisition plan, which recorded in detail the information of two Chinese-funded department stores - Daxin Department Store and Zhonghua Department Store;

These two department stores are one of the four major Chinese-funded department stores in Hong Kong Island, second only to Xian Shi Department Store and Wing On Department Store;

Mark has worked at Lane Crawford for almost ten years, so he knows Hong Kong Island Department Store well;

The chances of Xianshi Department Store and Wing On Department Store being acquired are very small, so the two department stores that are second only to them are targeted.

Lane Crawford Department Store is a high-end department store, and it is the first choice for shopping for the upper-class and middle-class people on Hong Kong Island;

Since Mark wants to acquire Daxin and Zhonghua Department Stores, he naturally wants to participate in mid-to-low-end department stores.

The department store industry on Hong Kong Island has become an important military base. In 1960, Dongying Dafan Department Store had already entered Hong Kong Island, but it chose to open it jointly with the Zhang Zhushan family.

Presumably Mark has also seen the development prospects of Hong Kong Island Department Store, and Wu Guangyao is famous in Hong Kong Island for being a world-class rich man with a lot of money. Naturally, he will use such a large amount of money to acquire other department stores to strengthen Lane Crawford. Resist the impact of foreign capital.

"This plan has passed!"

After Wu Guangyao read it, he agreed without hesitation!

The annual profit of Baiyou Group has reached as high as 23 million Hong Kong dollars, and it is also a giant company in Hong Kong Island. It is no problem to acquire a company of this size.

The joy of the two of them can't be expressed in words, you know how cool the boss is!

Wu Guangyao suddenly thought of something, and said, "Wait a minute, I have something else for you to do!"

The bodies of Fu Hongru and Mark who had just got up quickly sat down again.

"Boss, tell me!"

Wu Guangyao said: "Through Lane Crawford's establishment of Lane Crawford Antiques Co., Ltd., every time there is a storm in Hong Kong Island, some people panic and wish to cash out all their family properties and go abroad to become second-class citizens; we established Antique companies must have development prospects. Antique companies belong to Lane Crawford because Lane Crawford has experience in operating department stores, and antique trading is one of them, so it’s no problem.”

The two naturally had no objection after hearing this, and offered their flattery one after another!

After Lane Crawford was acquired by Baiyou Group, in addition to experiencing high-end consumer goods, it also increased the sales of jewelry and cosmetics;

For a time, the retail industry on Hong Kong Island was in charge of the wind and rain, and Weishui Xiangjiang.

Wu Guangyao used Lane Crawford to open an antique shop, which was naturally convenient for himself;

After all, if the antiques in your hands are realized, or if you want to buy any antiques, you can get convenience.

As a time traveler, I naturally know the future value of these antiques, and the room for appreciation is very large, comparable to the real estate industry.

After receiving three big tasks in one go, the two happily left the office, ready to go to work.
