Chapter 340 A Principle
“What a pity.”
After taking a sip, Xue Yining couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the other person's rich way of making tea.
Although the tea leaves in a small pot of tea are only worth a few hundred dollars, such a rough brewing method is a waste of the quality of Mingqian Longjing.
"Just drink it and it's fine. Isn't the purpose of drinking tea to enjoy it?"
Hearing the implication in the other party's words, Zhou Anan asked without comment.
Zhou Anan also likes those fancy tea-brewing techniques, but there is no need to hire a tea maker for this.
If you have the leisure time, you can go to a teahouse to watch the beautiful young ladies perform tea art, which would only cost you a hundred yuan, but if you specially hire one, it would cost at least several thousand yuan a month.
With the consumption level in Hangzhou, the salary of a full-time tea artist may be over ten thousand yuan, which is really not cost-effective.
As for him learning it himself, don't be funny.
If Zhou Anan has that much free time, she might as well go and play with the little loli.
Well, but the secretary can go and learn from it.
Pay some money for training and you can enjoy services worth a few hundred dollars each time in the future.
This is a good idea. I’ll tell the secretary about it later.
Being both virtuous and talented is the most basic requirement for a female secretary, and it is not excessive.
"I am obsessed."
After a moment's pause, Xue Yining thought about what the other person had just said and felt that it made a lot of sense. He couldn't help but feel ashamed of his superficial thoughts.
Considering that he is so young and has built such a huge business, he must have good upbringing.
"Sister Yining, do you have anything else to do in Hangzhou this time?"
Since everyone was unfamiliar with each other, Zhou Anan went straight to the point.
He has figured out some tricks and found that it is more appropriate to get straight to the point when chatting with these second-generation people.
It's just a pretense. The other party has inherited the skills from his ancestors and parents. He, who comes from a grassroots background, will definitely not be able to beat him.
Besides, he has the initiative, so why bother playing those tricks?
"I heard that your company has begun to get involved in the film industry. Our company would like to cooperate with you in depth."
Hearing the other party's straightforward question, Xue Yining did not hide anything and directly stated his purpose.
The mainland's film market is gradually growing, and Mingli Film and Television, which dominates Taiwan, naturally wants to get a piece of the pie. However, Taiwan's increasingly sluggish economic situation and fierce competition in overseas markets can no longer support this huge film and television company.
However, there are many powerful film and television companies in the mainland. There are several film and television companies with valuations of billions, and there are not two or three giants, but several.
Mingli Films, with a valuation of 2 billion, can dominate the market in Taiwan, but can only rank among the top 15 in mainland China.
The powerful dragon cannot defeat the local snake. Mingli Film and Television, which cooperated with a giant and lost hundreds of millions of dollars in investment, suffered a heavy blow. The senior management was replaced several times and finally it was taken over by Xue Yining, the second daughter of the chairman of the group headquarters.
When he first took office, Xue Yining stopped all investment projects in the mainland and began looking for a new partner.
Blue Whale Entertainment, which had just emerged and was developing rapidly, naturally came into Xue Yining's sight.
The most important thing is that the new variety show project launched by Blue Whale Entertainment has been given the green light all the way and has a huge momentum, showing that it is a latecomer that has surpassed the others.
If this variety show is successful, Blue Whale Entertainment's level will instantly rise to several levels. If they miss the opportunity now, Mingli Group may have to pay a greater price for future cooperation between the two parties.
But she didn't expect it to be such a coincidence that her best friend knew the other party's chairman and they met by chance in the other party's bar last night.
Xue Yining, who believes in Buddhist cause and effect, feels that this is the fate of the two, and that their cooperation will definitely change the sluggish trend of Mingli Film and Television.
"Oh, how to cooperate?"
After hearing the other party's words, Zhou Anan asked with interest.
"At present, our company has several high-quality film and television projects ready for approval. Our two companies will cooperate and produce together. My company can be responsible for overseas promotion, and your company will be responsible for the domestic promotion. We can discuss the profit sharing. Of course, we can also jointly develop the projects you are interested in. Similarly, we unconditionally support overseas channels."
After briefly talking about the direction of cooperation, Xue Yining looked directly at the other party.
Although Blue Whale Entertainment has a good development momentum, it is, after all, a small company that has only been established for a year.
If the other party wants to enter the film industry, their cooperation through overseas channels is definitely a shortcut to make up for the other party's shortcoming in development time.
"It is probably too early for our company to open up overseas markets at this time."
Faced with the other party's conditions, Zhou Anan drank a sip of tea without commenting.
They have a small family and a small business now, so there is no need to go through so much trouble.
Of course, if the other party is sincere in cooperating, that is also possible, after all, the overseas market is still very large.
Just like the drama "My Sunshine", it was sold to two countries and directly brought in an additional profit of 60 million.
"The drama 'My Star' was sold to South Korea and Sakura, so it must have made a lot of money."
Looking at the other party with a smile, Xue Yining said, and then said affirmatively: "I can also help you sell this drama to all Southeast Asian countries and Australian countries, and your revenue from this drama can increase by another 50%."
"Then can our drama "Love Dormitory" be operated?"
The water in the teacup in his hand was rippling as Zhou Anan asked indifferently, as if the 50% profit could not impress him at all.
Well, if we calculate based on the current revenue of 120 million, that means an extra 60 million is just for nothing. Is the overseas market so big? ! !
If the drama "Love Dormitory" can also be operated, we will make a fortune.
You know, there is only one season of "Stars", but "Love Dormitory" can be filmed for five or six seasons.
No, if "Star" has a sequel, with the original cast and a few different love plots, the audience will still buy it.
That profit is simply...
Stay calm, stay calm, be composed and composed, only then can you be invincible.
"Of course, but we need to wait for the ratings of your second season to come out. If the ratings are high, the first season can also be sold at a good price."
Although the other party's voice was very calm, Xue Yining was not worried at all that the other party would not be tempted.
Opening up overseas markets can bring in 40% to 50% more revenue for free, and no film or television company can resist this temptation.
Of course, several domestic giants already have their own channels. Although they are not as complete as Mingli Film and Television, they are not completely controlled by others.
It was because of this that the previous partners from the mainland would not show any mercy when they tried to cheat Mingli Film and Television.
But it’s different for the newly started Blue Whale Entertainment. Her contribution is definitely the icing on the cake, and a very expensive one at that.
"That's great. I'll ask the production department to evaluate your project."
After hearing the other party's affirmative answer, Zhou Anan no longer had any doubts.
The overseas market alone is enough to bring about cooperation between the two companies.
As for cooperating to develop each other's film projects, this is something worth discussing.
If it was those blockbuster movies or TV series he remembered, Zhou Anan would definitely not be short of such a small amount of money and would even want to invest more money.
For example, youth films and movies produced in Taiwan have a large market in the mainland, which is a good opportunity to make a big profit with a small investment.
For example, forget about those blockbuster movies. There were one or two classics in the past few years, but they were basically doomed in the next ten years. Every movie they made lost money. Even Jay Chou, who has good record sales, couldn't convince the audience to buy into the movie.
In addition, their company's distribution department is in its infancy and can fully leverage each other's experience to grow rapidly.
In short, there is only one principle: invest in those that make money, and say goodbye to those that don’t.
