Wujiang Group is quite generous, with endorsement fees starting at 100,000 RMB, something they've probably never encountered before.
After hanging up the phone, director Wang Fulin prepared to mention it to Chen Xiaoxu, Ouyang Fenqiang, and others.
Chen Xiaoxu, Ouyang Fenqiang, and others were packing up to go home.
Wang Fulin called them together.
Everyone was surprised, but seeing the smile on Director Wang Fulin's face, they knew it couldn't be a bad thing.
"Don't rush home yet, Wujiang Group is planning to invite you to be their spokespeople," Wang Fulin said with a smile.
"Wujiang actually asked us to be their product spokespeople?!" Ouyang Fenqiang was utterly astonished.
Chen Xiaoxu and the others also looked completely astonished.
They never imagined that the renowned Wujiang Group would ask them, nobodys, to be their spokespeople.
It's no wonder they were surprised. "Dream of the Red Chamber" hadn't even aired yet, and they were practically unknown. Even Hong Kong kung fu superstar Jackie Chan couldn't become a product spokesperson for Wujiang Group, which shows just how demanding it is to become one.
...
Chongqing.
The Wujiang VCD factory is operating at full capacity, with VCD players being unloaded from the production line and then transported to the warehouse by small forklifts for storage.
Mayor Zhou Yuchuan's face was all smiles during his inspection of the factory.
The Chongqing Wujiang VCD factory created thousands of jobs as soon as it started operations. Soon, VCDs will become one of the pillars of Chongqing's economy, especially if VCDs become popular in China and even globally...
But since using a VCD player, Mayor Zhou Yuchuan firmly believes that VCDs will definitely be a hit in China, and the country truly needs such a product for watching movies. Even abroad, he imagines people will love VCDs.
Mayor Zhou Yuchuan was full of confidence. At this moment, he couldn't help but feel glad that he had sold Tianfu Cola to Wujiang Group in exchange for Wujiang Group investing in and building a VCD factory in Chongqing.
Now it's finally time to reap the rewards!
Chongqing will surely achieve economic take-off because of VCD, and promote the development of the electronics industry and manufacturing industry!
At this moment, the entire city of Chongqing is supporting and protecting the Wujiang VCD factory, ensuring that products can be manufactured smoothly.
“We produce 12 million VCDs a year. I don’t know if the domestic market can absorb them all?” Zhou Yuchuan said to Lou Hongfei, the head of Wujiang VCD, who had been following him around.
"Of course, it won't be enough to consume them all at first. However, the boss has a plan to build 'video arcades' all over the country, including in vast rural areas. Once this plan is successfully implemented, the annual production capacity of 12 million units will not be able to meet the demand at all. At that time, we will actually need to increase production capacity..." Lou Hongfei replied with a smile.
After a pause, Lou Hongfei explained, "A video arcade is like a small movie theater. It plays movies for customers using VCD players and also offers rental and sales services for VCD players and VCD discs."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yuchuan instantly realized what was going on.
"Mr. Zhao is truly visionary. This plan to build his own 'video arcade' is almost impossible to fail. Once implemented, the video arcades scattered across the country will continuously bring revenue to Wujiang. At the same time, the 'video arcade' will also serve as a great advertisement. All those who have watched movies in the video arcade will be potential users of VCD players. When they have money, of course they will want to own their own VCD player..."
After a pause, Zhou Yuchuan exclaimed, "Zhao Ye's 'video parlor' plan is truly admirable!"
Lou Hongfei nodded in agreement. Although the initial investment in this plan was relatively large, the returns would be substantial, at least ensuring the rapid popularization of Wujiang VCD.
A single "Boundless VCD player" costs four to five thousand RMB, making it unaffordable for ordinary families. However, the emergence of video arcades was perfectly suited to China's national conditions.
Ordinary people might not be able to afford to spend thousands of dollars on a VCD player, but they would be eager to spend 50 cents to watch a movie at a video arcade!
Furthermore, when people see that opening a video arcade is very profitable, how can they not be envious? At that time, many people will surely follow suit and open their own video arcades...
Opening a video arcade requires purchasing VCD players and VCD discs from Wujiang Group, so it goes without saying that Wujiang Group will make a fortune.
...
...
Whether you're selling VCD players or running a video arcade, you need VCD discs.
With such a prestigious reputation, how could Wujiang Group possibly sell pirated VCDs?
Of course, Wujiang Group only needs to purchase a portion of the legitimate film and television copyrights; the rest can be left to pirates.
As long as there's profit to be made, there will always be people willing to take the risk. That said, there's absolutely no risk involved in piracy in China. Wujiang Group only needs to give a slight hint, and pirates will quickly spring into action.
...
...
Hong Kong, Golden Harvest Company.
"Mr. Zou, Wujiang Group is preparing to launch a product similar to a video recorder called VCD, and therefore wants to purchase the VCD film and television copyrights from Jiahe!"
Lou Hongfei flew to Hong Kong and first approached Golden Harvest to discuss film and television copyright matters.
ATV owns the copyrights to many TV dramas; they're its own company's content, so there's nothing to worry about.
There are enough TV series, but movie resources are relatively scarce.
Zou Huaiwen asked with suspicion, "What is a VCD? Did you bring any products with you?"
"I brought it with me!"
Lou Hongfei nodded and immediately instructed his assistant to bring the VCDs he had brought to Zou Huaiwen and the others to watch.
