181 This thought flies too far, and I can't hold it
"Ah what? Do you think we can handle this office after we have expanded so much business? I wanted to keep running a company here before, but...it's not my own that I'm always afraid of being kicked out at any time, it's my own peace of mind.
A little." Song Lu sighed.
"How big of a place do you want?" Yu Chen asked.
"The usable area should be about 5,000 square meters. Look, I want to install a standard projection screen, so it should be 100 square meters. I also want to install a space of about 200 meters for employees' leisure and entertainment.
I also want at least four to five large and small conference rooms with various functions. For example, the conference room for the audition needs a hundred square meters. It adds up to several hundred square meters, right? There also needs to be a warehouse.
Is it specifically for our props and equipment? We need one..."
Song Lu began to talk about his plan, and Yu Chen was writing down notes in his notebook.
After Song Lu made such a request, he really needed a place with an area of five thousand square meters.
"Mr. Song, the key is to buy it. The money will not be small. It is better to rent..."
"No, no, no, don't rent, it's not worth it. Now you can see that the rent for an office is more than three yuan per square meter per day, and five thousand square meters per month is hundreds of thousands or even millions. But have you thought about the rent increase in the future?
?When the rent rises to more than ten yuan per square meter, it will no longer be worthwhile. It will not matter if you move then, or if you don’t move. So, it is better to buy. I have learned about it. Now the average price of Grade A office buildings in Beijing is 2 yuan.
It's about 30,000 square meters, and 5,000 square meters is only over 100 million. If possible, we can buy 10,000 square meters and rent out 5,000 square meters first. Later, when the company runs out of space, we can take back the rented space. Yes, this is good.
, buy it for 10,000 square meters, it’s only 2 to 30 million, take a loan first.”
The more Song Lu thought about it, the more he thought about it. Why did he spend two to three hundred million just to buy an office?
"Ah, Song, Mr. Song, are we being too radical? Let's play it safe," Yu Chen advised.
"It's okay. We don't need to pay much money ourselves. We can pay a down payment of 50 to 60 million, and then rent out half of it and collect nearly 1 million in rent every month. The key is that the rent will increase every year? Let's do it like this." Song Lu Dashou
It was decided with one wave.
This is also the benefit of being independent, you can do whatever you want.
Yu Chen had no choice but to spend fifty to sixty million, not counting decoration and the like...
"The other thing is the green light system. This is the most difficult thing. You should do your best to preside over it and recruit some returning talents. Without people who are familiar with this system, it will be difficult to completely establish this system."
"I won't care about this matter. If there are not enough manpower, I will recruit people. I only look at the results. I must see the results before May next year and develop a complete set of standard review procedures. In addition, I must find a reliable investigation company. The company
We need survey data from movie fans every quarter to provide data reference for us to judge the reliability of movie investment."
"You should be familiar with this. The eight major Hollywood companies have such investigation companies. Learn from them."
Yu Chen listened and took notes at the same time. He would write it down first and then talk about it later. If he had different opinions, he would talk about it later.
"After talking about the office and the green light system, the next thing is the film and television foundation. Projects that have been approved by our green light system have to invest money, right? My suggestion is to jointly invest with multiple investors to establish it.
A film and television fund. In this way, our risks will be reduced. This foundation must be operated independently and jointly managed by all parties. The specifics must be well planned."
After Yu Chen wrote it down, he glanced at Song Lu, "This is not going to be easy. Do you want to learn from Hollywood's film and television funds on Wall Street? Mr. Song, I suggest that we take it step by step. You can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. Nowadays, Chinese movies
Investors haven't seen a few movies making money yet, so if you rush to get everyone to invest money, you will probably have difficulties. After all, foundations will only invest capital when they see that there is market space and high profits in a certain industry.
Riza, otherwise capital would not engage in a business that only loses money but does not make money."
Song Lu turned his head and looked at Yu Chen. He was stunned for a moment and thought about it. Maybe he was really a little impatient.
"Well, you're right, but let's form a prototype first. If someone wants to come in, we have to have relevant gameplay for them to choose from, right? Then there's no need to worry about this. The time is uncertain, and the mission is uncertain. You can
Let’s see what can be done.”
Song Lu gave up the idea of establishing a foundation.
"Then this matter is very important, and it may cost more money, but it has to be done...sigh..." Song Lu hesitated, not knowing whether he could accomplish this thing with his current financial resources.
"I want to make a video website. Have you heard of Tudou Video? This year, a video company called Youku was also established, which is based on the foreign YouTube video model. But what I want to do is different from these two, which is pure
For those who watch movies and TV, and buy genuine videos, it is best to buy everything you can while taking advantage of the current low copyright fees."
Song Lu said.
"Oh, I know, you want to learn Netflix?" Yu Chen asked.
"Yes, that's right, it's Netflix. However, I want to add new features to my website, which are different from Netflix. That is, users are divided into professional users and ordinary users, and professional users are divided into professional film and television users and
Professional media and film critics all need identity authentication. The authentication method is to rely on their signed work certificates for film and television dramas or film review articles. Then we grade professional users. Users with higher grades have a lot of power.
It is free to watch movies and TV series without advertisements, and there are recommended promotional resources on the website, etc. This can be improved..."
"Mr. Song, are you trying to gather people from the film and television industry? But what's the use?" Yu Chen couldn't help but ask.
"Of course it's useful. Do you know the rules of the Oscars? We have gathered a large group of professional filmmakers and given them different scoring weights, so that they can rate the movies released in the past year, and we can use them accordingly.
This is another Oscar. The key is that the more this platform develops, the more authoritative and attractive it will be. It doesn’t matter if you can win awards for all the movies elsewhere. If you can attract thousands or even tens of thousands of people here,
Winning awards under the ratings of professionals is what convinces the public. This will attract most movies to the platform, attract more movie fans to the platform, and attract more advertisers."
"When the time comes, a channel will be opened for ordinary users to upgrade to professional users. For example, if an ordinary movie critic writes a movie review and gets a final four-star rating from more than 10,000 people, then the website will list you as a professional movie critic. You
Movie review articles can make money through click-through rates, and professional film and television people can also make money based on this. Of course, there are other benefits. I will mention them one by one. I will slowly implement them in the future. In short, this platform is very important.
."
"Lao Yu, have you ever thought about it? Our website platform can not only bring together domestic film and television people and audiences, but also create an international version, allowing professional film and television people and audiences from all over the world to come in. It can award awards in different areas, and it can also
Global PK, let’s have an annual international ultimate award. By then, maybe we will be more influential than the Oscars..." Song Lu became more and more excited as he spoke.
"..." Yu Chen was dumbfounded. Is he suffering from delusional disorder? As big as his thoughts are on a big stage?
"Ahem, Mr. Song, your idea is good, but it may not achieve the effect you want. Can you please slow down for a while?" Yu Chen reminded.
"No, we can't delay, this must be done. Don't you think it's unrealistic?"
"Uh, not really, I just feel that my imagination is a bit too open." Yu Chen said tactfully.
"Well, I understand your thinking. I wanted to build a theater chain in Asia before, and I had already arranged for people to grab the theater chain. However, I feel that the theater chain is not enough for the future. The real future is an online platform.
Don’t think I’m too unimaginative. There are many people in this world who are more unimaginative than me. Some people are thinking about building their own spaceships and then immigrating to Mars. They also want to build cars that don’t burn gasoline and brain-computer interfaces that can connect to the human brain.
We also need to build a fully bionic robot..."
"Compared to him, I am totally unworthy. Lao Yu, what are you afraid of? We are still young. We have a dream and we will realize it. If we can't realize it, we won't worry about it. Just do what I say and recruit people.
, recruit two website leaders, one is responsible for technology, and the other is responsible for promotion. This website will be managed independently in the future. Before the Spring Festival, I will form all the ideas for this website platform into a document, Lao Yu, you will find out in the future,
This website may be worth hundreds or tens of thousands of times more than our film and television company, and there is a high possibility that it may even be listed on its own." Song Lu and Yu Chen thought.
"...Mr. Song, the person you mentioned who wants to immigrate to Mars is called Elon Musk, right? I remember it. He does have a big idea, but everyone in Eagle Country says he is bragging."
Yu Chen smiled.
"No, you will know in the future that he will become the richest man in the world, and he will realize part of what he said. Although I am not his fan, and I even oppose him in some places, but I admire his style of daring to think and do."
"Okay, let's not talk about this. Now let's talk about next year's filming plan. Come on, take a look. These are the three movies I plan to make for our company next year, as well as the copyrights to be purchased. This "Ten Nights"
"The Story of a Robbery of Officials", I went to buy it years ago, the sooner the better. This science fiction writer recently serialized the novel "Once Upon a Time on Earth" in "Science Fiction World". I want to find his contact information personally.
Go talk about this guy’s copyright.”
Song Lu explained all the way that Yu Chen didn't know what other plans he had. He really had too many ideas.
I have to buy an office building again, I have to develop a green light system, I have to develop a website, and now I have to make three movies and I have to buy the copyright...
Hey, two science fiction movies? Also, the director of "To Youth" is not Song Lu?
