Rebirth of Xiangjiang Hidden Behind the Scenes

Chapter 100 Reporting Work

When Su Cheng returned to Xiangjiang, it was already February 2nd, and the Chinese New Year was about to begin.

The reason why I was so late was because I was waiting in Hollywood for the "tour group" signed by Leslie Cheung and Michelle Yeoh to end. During this trip, I visited three countries and dozens of places of interest.

During this time, Shi Nansheng also reached an agreement with 20th Century Fox and Golden Harvest on the investment matters for "Cannonball Speed".

…

After getting off the plane, Su Cheng and others went home individually.

"Master, there are guests waiting for you at home." Upon arriving at Su's house, Uncle Wu said.

Nodding, Su Cheng went straight into the house.

The people sitting in the living room are not outsiders, but the heads of several companies under his name. President Hu Tianlun from "Hong Kong Entertainment Weekly". President Cha Xiaoxin from "Celebrity Secrets". General Manager Le Yiling from Tengyue TV.

.Liang Shuyi, general manager of Tengyue Entertainment Headquarters, and Yao Hui, temporary deputy general manager of Xiangjiang Tengyue Cinema Line.

After drinking a cup of hot tea, Su Chengcai let them enter the study and report on their work.

The first one to speak was Cha Xiaoxin, the president of "Celebrity Secrets", which is currently the least profitable: "Boss, since the establishment of the newspaper, as of the end of January, the highest sales volume of our newspaper was 27,000 copies. The average is less than 6,000 copies. At present,

The profit was less than HK$1.6 million."

While listening to Cha Xiaoxin's report, Su Cheng opened the financial statements. It was indeed terrible. This was only possible because he came up with a few good ideas and took Zhao Yazhi, Zheng Shaoqiu, Chow Yun-fat, and Jackie Chan out to "sacrifice the flag."

Achievements. If they only rely on their own development, even if they can achieve no loss, it will be considered great.

Putting down the report in his hand, Su Cheng opened the drawer and took out the latest issue of "Celebrity Secrets". After briefly browsing it, he sighed and said, "President Cha, although my philosophy is to report truthfully without distorting the facts.

'. But your article is too plain. What I need is a story. If you really don't know how to do it, read "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio" to see the love between humans and ghosts."

These words were a bit harsh, which is enough to show Su Cheng's anger at this time. The reason why the magazine is popular is its "interesting talk" and "freshness". If there is "freshness" but not "interesting talk", who will buy it?

Hearing this, Zha Xiaoxin's face looked a little ugly, and she finally endured it and did not speak again.

Waving his hand, President Hu Tianlun of "Hong Kong Entertainment Weekly" began to report: "Boss, the development of our newspaper last year was pretty good. The current sales volume has reached the top five in Hong Kong. The sales volume of the new issue is 95,000 copies. It is profitable.

A total of HK$83.6 million."

The reason why it is in the top five, not the top three, is just because it is a weekly magazine, not a daily magazine. Otherwise, this ranking would have to go further.

Leaving the financial statements behind, Su Cheng flipped through the latest issue of "Hong Kong Entertainment Weekly". Although in his eyes, many of the contents in it needed to be updated, at the moment, it was considered a very novel entertainment newspaper.

No wonder sales are good!

He nodded, expressed his approval, and turned to Zha Xiaoxin on the side and said: "President Cha, please communicate more with President Hu in the future. "Hong Kong Entertainment Weekly" covers a wider range, while "Celebrity Secrets" is monotonous.

A lot. President Hu has a lot of private information about celebrities, but due to the overall purpose of the newspaper, it will selectively reveal the information. The rest can be a reference for you, so that the content of the newspaper will be more comprehensive. In addition, since he is a celebrity

"You can't just focus on singers and actors. In addition, hosts, directors, screenwriters, even advertising models, and fashion upstarts can all choose to break the news."

Speaking of this, Su Cheng pointed out: "You have to know that in the entertainment industry, it is not these so-called artists who have more privacy, but the investors, directors, and this group of people behind them. In addition, the circle of hosts is also a group of people.

A very eye-catching group. The representative is Zheng Shaoqiu's girlfriend Shen Dianxia. The love and hatred between the two of them can write a novel. However, it is best to report it truthfully, otherwise, her sworn brothers will come to her door.

Come."

Hearing these words, Zha Xiaoxin's face became better and she said softly: "Okay, boss, I will communicate with President Hu."

Immediately, it was the turn of Yao Hui from Tengyue Cinemas. He said: "Boss, from the establishment of the cinema to now, we have released a total of 48 films and made a profit of HK$130 million. In addition to repaying part of the loan, employee salaries, and year-end

After the award is announced, there is still HK$92.7 million left."

In fact, when he was in Hollywood, Su Chengcheng heard Jiang Zhiqiang say something about the general financial statements of Tengyue Cinemas. There was not much difference.

Nodding, Su Chengcai looked at Le Yiling. As for Liang Shuyi, she came here for a meeting today. After all, in the company, last year's financial statements were already clear.

Le Yilinghui reported: "Boss, since the establishment of our Tengyue TV station, although the profit has been more than 8 million Hong Kong dollars, after repaying the loan and issuing the year-end bonus, the TV station has already misappropriated its reserves."

Listening to her words, Su Cheng was also looking at the specific financial statements. It turned out that the TV station had not yet achieved actual profits. He was afraid that there would be no success in the first half of the year.

Su Cheng shook his head, put down the things in his hands, and said: "Thank you for your hard work in the past year!"

"Boss, it's not hard!"

Shaking his head, Su Cheng said: "You first give the dividends I set before to the shareholders."

After a pause, he continued: "President Hu, Hong Kong Entertainment Weekly will continue to develop according to the current trend."

"Yes, boss!" Hu Tianlun responded.

Looking at Yao Hui, Su Cheng said: "Manager Yao, over at the theater chain, go find Wu Guangzheng in person. Just say it's my wish and pay off all the balance we owe."

"Okay, boss!" Yao Hui responded.

He waved his hand and asked them all to go to the living room, where Uncle Wu was already preparing lunch.

Leaving Liang Shuyi behind, Su Cheng solemnly said: "The current operating conditions of several companies are pretty good, but we still have a lot of debts. After "Back to the Future" is released, you can discuss with Jiang Zhiqiang and Shi Nansheng to first transfer Xiangjiang to Xiangjiang.

All loans here have been settled."

"Boss, this?" Liang Shuyi was a little surprised.

Su Cheng said: "This film will have a box office of at least hundreds of millions of dollars, and it will be released in one of our theaters, so we can get a lot of money immediately."

Upon hearing this, Liang Shuyi naturally responded: "I know, boss!"

Then, Su Cheng continued: "As for the loans from Hollywood, let's talk to them. After "True Lies" is released, maybe the funds will not be tight."

"I understand!" Liang Shuyi nodded. Then she asked, "Boss, in Hollywood, do we need to prepare a newspaper agency and acquire a TV station?"

"No need!"

Xiangjiang is different from North America. At least, it is far behind in terms of information updates. Although newspapers will continue to be popular for more than ten years, there is no point in spending a lot of money to acquire them. This is why Su Cheng does not expand

The reason for "Hong Kong Entertainment Weekly" is completely unnecessary!

In addition, there is the issue of acquiring TV stations. Xiangjiang can be independent and privatized. But in North America, many reported things will not be controlled by themselves. At least, they cannot all be anchors and reporters by local people in Xiangjiang, right? It is unrealistic!

I'm afraid there will still be resistance.

We only maintain film companies and theater chains, and cooperate with other companies in terms of publicity, so that we will not be targeted. Perhaps, in the near future, there will be more and more partners.

That is the result Su Cheng hopes to see.
