Note that this book is a slow-burn novel, and it will become increasingly exciting as the story progresses.
It starts from 2002, beginning at the Beijing Film Academy, and starting with the H...
Shen Fang smiled and said, "Brother Xu, my presence here represents my opinion, and I hope you are sincere as well. My request is simple: invest 15% of the shares, and Longteng Media will engage in in-depth cooperation with Hengdian. This cooperation will not only extend to film and television, but also to Tencent's future game town, game competitions, COS and ACG industry zone, and the IP culture park that Longteng plans to build in the future. As long as you cooperate with Longteng, I can guarantee that within 10 years, we will work together to make Hengdian the number one film and television base, the number one tourist town, and the number one cultural industry base in China."
"This will not only benefit Dongyang, but also Ningbo, making it one of the most well-known cultural bases in China. The profits are considerable, at least in the hundreds of billions. It will also create at least 100,000 jobs, increase real estate value, and generate tourism benefits, among other things."
Upon hearing Shen Fang's words, Xu Wensheng, the other two major shareholders, and several government officials exchanged glances. They weren't particularly concerned about the hundreds of billions level, since Hengdian was currently only worth 1 billion, a long way from reaching 100 billion. However, with the economy improving, if Hengdian could be developed as Shen Fang described, it would definitely be extremely profitable.
Moreover, the most important thing is the issue of creating 100,000 jobs, which is a huge attraction for the Dongyang Municipal Government. Another point is becoming the number one cultural industry city in China, making Dongyang a star, which is the biggest attraction for the Dongyang Municipal Government.
Zhang Jianguo and Liu Tianliang exchanged a glance, showing some interest. Shen Fang had sent people over to talk to them before, and they knew that if Hengdian wanted to develop, it had to cooperate deeply with top media companies in Beijing to increase Hengdian's visibility.
Xu Wensheng glanced at Shen Fang, and after some deep thought, he...
"President Shen, I need to discuss this matter with several shareholders and Mayor Jiang. However, I very much hope that we can reach this cooperation. Hero's publicity methods this time have really broadened my horizons. As a major shareholder in the domestic Internet industry, you know that online media publicity will be the top publicity method in the future. If Tencent can promote Hengdian extensively, it will definitely bring a lot of traffic."
Shen Fang smiled and said, "Brother Xu is right. In fact, the tourism industry is very easy to attract customers as long as you have good promotional methods. Just produce more hit TV series and blockbuster commercial movies. When celebrities come, people will naturally come. Also, hold more events. Especially in the last two years, with the internet becoming more and more developed, the number of game users will continue to grow. Currently, Tencent Games has nearly 8 million online users. Tencent will hold game competitions here. Celebrity promotion is also very important. In addition, the ACG (Anime, Comics, and Games) industrial park can also attract many young people to travel. Hengdian's development can refer to Disney and become a domestic travel base integrating food, drink, entertainment, and film shooting."
"Furthermore, I suggest that the Dongyang municipal government should also provide some policy subsidies and preferential treatment to attract film and television companies from outside to set up their businesses in Dongyang. As the film and television industry develops further, some well-known artists and stars will establish their own personal studios in the future. Dongyang can open its doors wide to attract these people to Hengdian, and also..."
Shen Fang spoke for nearly 30 minutes, leaving the audience stunned. He explained to the elderly people how to attract talent, how to drive traffic, how to make money, how to build a film and television base, how to develop the surrounding area, tourist towns, games, and anime.
Xu Wenhua had studied abroad and knew Shen Fang's views and ideas, which were very strategic and he greatly admired them.
Chen Fang, whose mouth was dry, took a sip of iced cola.
Director Liu of the Investment Promotion Bureau looked at Shen Fang and couldn't help but give him a thumbs up: "President Shen, you have great foresight. The plans you proposed sound very feasible. If we follow your approach, many people will definitely be attracted to come to Hengdian. You're amazing."
"Yes, Mr. Shen, I think our tourism bureau needs someone like you. It's such a pity," the director of the tourism bureau exclaimed.
Director Zhang of the Real Estate Planning Bureau said with a smile, "President Shen is a very busy person, someone who is destined for great things. Why would your Tourism Bureau allow President Shen to join? It's too small a place for him."
Shen Fang waved his hand: "You're too kind."
"Brother Shen, how about this, we'll have a meeting later and give you an answer tomorrow. What do you think?"
Shen Fang smiled at Xu Wensheng: "Brother Xu, won't you consider it for a few more days?"
Xu Wensheng smiled and said, "Brother Shen, you've treated us like family and shared so many insightful opinions. We certainly won't treat you like family either. I'm telling you, I definitely want to cooperate with you."
Shen Fang laughed heartily: "Brother, I'll be waiting for your good news."
Then everyone toasted and drank, creating a lively atmosphere.
In the afternoon, Xu Wensheng arranged for two beautiful female directors to take Shen Fang and the others to tour the scenery of Ningbo and sample some local delicacies.
Dongyang is a very livable place.
While boating on the lake, the beautiful tour guide transformed into a tea-making maid, and Shen Fang, Shen Kun, and Huang Bin lay on the boat, drinking tea and enjoying the scenery.
"Third Uncle, you completely missed out on the plan for Xu Wensheng today. Aren't you afraid he'll partner with someone else?"
Shen Fang took a sip of tea, lazily squinted his eyes, and slightly raised the corners of his mouth.
"He won't do it, and only Longteng can do this. It's impossible for other companies to do it. Even if they could, Xu Wensheng would need to spend a lot of time and money to interview film and television media companies all over the country. This would make the development of Hengdian very slow. Moreover, I have Tencent as a major support. I call the shots in the Hong Kong circle. Which film and television media company in the Beijing circle dares not give me face? I made my point clear today so that Xu Wensheng can make up his mind."
Huang Bin nodded in agreement: "I completely agree with what President Shen said. There aren't so many schemes and tricks in business. Xu Wensheng has already investigated our advantages very thoroughly. Since he came to us, he must know what he's doing."
Shen Fang smiled and nodded.
"Oh, that feels so good! Ladies, do you know where I get a massage here? I've heard they offer a special ear-cleaning service that's really relaxing. Do you know about it?"
The oval-faced, long-haired beauty smiled slightly: "President Shen, Linjiang Pavilion is very good. It's the best and largest massage parlor in Dongyang. If you'd like to go, I can make the arrangements."
Shen Fang smiled: "Okay, arrange it. Get the best, the most expensive service. Brother Xu is really something, sending two beautiful women to accompany you. You two aren't tour guides, are you? I've never seen such beautiful tour guides before. Dressed in designer clothes, what are your names?"
The oval-faced beauty smiled and said, "My name is Xu Lin, and this is my younger sister, Xu Jingyi. We are related to President Xu through the same clan."
Shen Fang was quite surprised: "Oh, we're relatives, huh? Goodness, don't tell anyone what you just said."
Xu Jingyi looked at Shen Fang with a grin: "Handsome guy, Uncle Xu is our relative."
Shen Fang laughed: "Well, it seems my handsome appearance isn't enough to charm the two of you."
"Let's go."
