Chapter 870: Consecutive Cinema Box Office Champions

When Wu Wenhui said that Yuewen Group was about to go public this year, everyone in the conference room except Chen Hao was in an uproar.

In fact, in 2009, when Qidian started to acquire several major Chinese novel reading websites, he had already planned to go public. Now Yuewen Group has been established and has completed the integration.

The next goal is naturally to go public!

In his previous life, Chen Tianqiao's Shengda also sought to go public at this time, but eventually a collective departure of senior management occurred, resulting in a direct halt to the listing plan.

The reason behind the incident of high-level officials leaving is mostly because of the development concept. The senior officials who left the industry hope that the group will adhere to the main route of literary development.

However, the management of the group's management wanted to take commercial development as its guideline, and the two sides had an irreconcilable conflict.

In the end, it was a beat and two sides separated!

This statement has a certain credibility, but it cannot be said that it is the entire reason.

Some people have long analyzed that behind the departure, there should be factors such as improper equity distribution, and the rewards that Shengda has been unable to go public and cannot fulfill its promises.

Shengda was indeed the case. Later, he was unable to go public. It was not until it was acquired that he successfully rang the bell in Xiangjiang and became a super group with a market value of 100 billion yuan.

This is also the decisive factor for Chen Hao to agree that Yuewen Group will seek to go public this year.

In fact, Yuewen Group is now becoming more and more popular with Qidian’s VIP system, and its income has been able to balance income and expenditure, and even has more surplus.

Yuewen Group is actually not short of money. Even if it is short of money, Chen Hao can invest again. After all, Yuewen Group is one of the core of Chen Hao's future territory.

But sometimes it’s not that you don’t go public without shortage of money. In order to retain the core talents of Yuewen Group and fulfill the promised rewards in a timely manner, Chen Hao still agreed to Yuewen Group’s listing.

Chen Hao nodded, "Haotian Movie has experience in listing. Mr. Wu can communicate more with Mr. Chen, and I also wish you success in listing this year."

Wu Wenhui nodded excitedly, "I will definitely ask Mr. Chen for advice and will definitely live up to Mr. Chen's expectations."

After saying that, Wu Wenhui looked at Chen Guofu again and said, "Mr. Chen, please give me some advice!"

"President Wu is polite, you must know everything!" Chen Guofu said with a smile.

Chen Hao was observing the expressions of the senior executives of other subsidiaries, and without exception, he looked envious. "Everyone is here to work hard and strive to go public in the future!"

Everyone was talking a lot when they heard this.

Then, Chen Hao looked at Chen Xiangang and said, "Mr. Chen, tell me!"

"In 2010, Haotian Cinema still invested in the construction of 5 multi-function 3D cinemas, with a total investment of 50 screens, with a total investment of 100 million yuan.

In addition, the company bought 66 sets of 3D projection equipment last year, and the installation, modification and training costs totaled RMB 72 million!

At the same time, due to the strengthening of the review standards, only 5 theaters joined the Sihai Haotian Cinema last year, bringing 20 screens.

Now, Sihai Haotian Cinema has its own 77 theaters, totaling 430 screens, and 140 screens from 40 theaters it has joined.

With 130 screens from Poly Wanhe, Sihai Haotian Cinema now has a total of 700 screens.

Whether it is the number of theaters or screens, it ranks first in the country!

The current Sihai Haotian Cinemas, the company holds a total of 81.8%, Huaying 2.5%, Magic Shadow 9.5%, and CGV 6.2%!

In 2010, the national film market could count the box office of 11.432 billion, with the total box office exceeding 10 billion for the first time, an increase of 71.21% year-on-year.

Last year, a total of 808 theaters were built nationwide, with 35 theaters, among which the top ten theaters contributed 70% of the annual box office.

The good news is that Sihai Haotian Cinema has won the box office championship in theaters again and the bad news is that Wanda has developed too vigorously and the gap with us is already very small.

As the national theater box office champion in 2010, Sihai Haotian Cinemas performed: annual box office of 1.25 billion, accounting for 10.93% of the total box office in the mainland, with 33.2 million viewers, and a performance increase of 58.22% compared with 2009.

Wanda Cinema was the second-place box office runner-up in the national cinema in 2010, with performance: annual box office of 1.24 billion, accounting for 10.0.84% ​​of the total box office in the mainland, with 35.68 million viewers, and a 69.16% increase from 2009.

Huaying Star Mei was the third largest cinema box office in 2010. Her performance: the annual box office was 1.11 billion, accounting for 9.7% of the total box office in the mainland, with 33.41 million viewers, and the performance increased by 53.12% compared with 2009.

Ranked 4th to 10th are the Magic City Union, the Huaying Southern Shinkansen, the Imperial Capital Xinying League, the Yangcheng Jinyi Pearl River, the Jiangsu and Zhejiang era, the Guangdong Province Land, and the Sichuan Province Pacific Ocean.

Wanda Cinemas ranked first in all cinemas, whether it is the number of moviegoers or performance growth rate.

In addition, last year, Wanda Cinema built 20 new theaters and added 200 new screens, which is still the first in the country.

At this speed, Wanda is the number one in theaters this year!

Moreover, our development speed can only rank in the middle of all theaters!

Speaking of Sihai Haotian Cinema, its annual box office was 1.25 billion yuan, plus snacks, beverages, pre-screening advertising and other revenue was 20 million yuan, and its turnover in 2010 was 1.27 billion yuan.

In addition to basic expenses such as salary, training, taxation, etc., as well as the investment in 6 newly built multi-function 3D cinemas, the net profit is RMB 143.41 million!" Chen Xiangang said.

Chen Hao nodded when he heard this. Wanda Cinemas is backed by Wanda Group and has a huge national unique advantage in theater construction. At the same time, it can be managed and trained in a unified manner. The brand value can be said to be the highest among all theaters!

This is far from comparable to the Four Seas Haotian. It is already a bit unexpected to be able to win again. It should be a matter of time before Wanda is surpassed.

Chen Hao thought for a while and said, "That's incomparable to Wanda. We should just continue to do our own development. What about the plan for this year?"

"This year we will still invest 100 million yuan to continue to build 5 new theaters, and at the same time continue to complete the 3D projection system transformation of the previous 66 theaters. Of course, we will also strictly review it and recruit franchise theaters again." Chen Xiangang said.

Chen Hao nodded after hearing this, "There are as many as 35 mainland theaters, but many small theaters with low rankings are basically struggling to survive. If possible, you can consider acquiring them.

In addition, even the top 20 theaters can consider acquiring if possible, even if the price is higher, it doesn’t matter.”

After all, Wanda's development speed is too fast, and in addition to its old rivals such as Star Mei, Xinyinglian, Shinkansen, etc., the land and Jiangsu and Zhejiang eras have also developed rapidly.

If Sihai Haotian Cinema does not speed up, it is afraid that its ranking will get lower and lower in the future.

"Okay, Mr. Chen, I've recorded it!" Chen Xiangang nodded.

"Then let me talk about the Haotian special effects!" Chang Hongsong smiled, "In 2010, the company mainly participated in the production of "Inception", "I am Legend 2: Jinling Travel" and "Zhu Xian". In these projects, the company's total revenue was 90 million yuan.

At the same time, the company has also taken on other smaller projects, with an income of RMB 25 million.

In addition, the company has two animated movies released worldwide this year, namely "The Master of Training the Dragon" and "Despicable Dad".

Among them, "The Master of Training the Dragon" had a global box office of 504 million US dollars, and "Despicable" had a global box office of 546 million US dollars. It is the animated film second only to "Toy Story 3".

At the same time, both animations were shortlisted for the Golden Globe Awards, and "The Master of Training the Dragon" was shortlisted for the Oscar.

At the same time, the company is still recruiting people. Now the company has officially exceeded 1,000 employees, but more than half of them still need training and learning, and there is still a long way to go to be alone." Chang Hongsong said.

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but shake their heads. There were more than 1,000 employees of Haotian Special Effects. Is Chang Hongsong planning to dig up all the domestic animation special effects talents?

However, although "The Dragon Trainer" and "Despicable" launched by Haotian Special Effects this year are not as shocked as the box office of "Kung Fu Panda", they still make a lot of money.

Moreover, special effects production has always been time-consuming and labor-intensive. At the same time, Haotian Special Effects basically monopolize most of the business of special effects production in the mainland, and it is indeed necessary to set up a special effects team for laughter.

Chang Hongsong continued, "The company's main task in 2011 is to produce Mr. Chen's "Avengers" and "Zhu Xian".

At the same time, three animated movies have been launched, namely "Training the Dragon 2" with an investment of 145 million yuan, "Crazy Primitive Man" with a production cost of 135 million yuan, and "Despicable Dad 2" with an investment of 76 million yuan.

I would also like to say that Hao Youyou Yaoqi has now more than 18 million registered users, and it is still the animation website with the most registered users in the mainland!”

"Will there be a new animated movie released this year?" Chen Hao asked.

"There is a movie called "Kung Fu Panda 2" scheduled to be released worldwide on May 26." Chen Xiangang replied.

Chen Hao nodded after hearing this. "Kung Fu Panda" created the global box office myth of Chinese animated movies. I hope this sequel will be better than the previous work.

"Haotian Production has been in South Korea all year in 2010, and has produced reality shows "Birth of the Family" and "Running Man" with MSE.

Through cooperation with South Korea, we have benefited a lot and learned a lot of experience in program production, especially the production of reality shows, which has allowed us to learn a lot.

Given that we haven't launched a new variety show for two years, we are planning to launch a new variety show in 2011." Long Danny said, "The new variety show is a music talent show."

In fact, Long Danny wanted to directly produce the Chinese version of "Running Man" in the mainland. After all, he has been making this program for one year in South Korea, which is very familiar.

Moreover, the development of variety shows in the mainland is very slow, and it is a while behind South Korea, island countries, and even Treasure Island, Xiangjiang. Therefore, Long Danny believes that the Chinese version of "Running Man" will definitely be popular.

But Chen Hao denied Long Danny's proposal and asked her to start with a music talent show.

Because the development of smartphones and video websites in mainland China is far less developed than in previous lives, due to this, it is likely that it will not be able to directly open up the era of national variety shows.

As a national variety show with great significance, good steel must be used on the edge, anyway, copyright cannot be eliminated.

Now I’m going to be honest in doing music talent shows and start again.

Moreover, the variety show proposed by Chen Hao is also phenomenal.

Danny Long was a little hesitant at first, but after watching the variety show outline given by Chen Hao, he nodded in agreement directly. Obviously, this show is very interesting and made Danny Long like it very much.

"Happy Mahua created and performed the new drama "Earl of Wulong Mountain" last year, with a total of 350 performances and a revenue of 4.5 million yuan.

This year, in addition to continuing to create new dramas and tours, we also plan to continue to explore new markets in the four cities in the central and western regions." Zhang Chen said.

"How much does it cost to buy land in 4 cities to build your own or renovate the theater?" Chen Hao asked.

Zhang Chen hesitated for a while and said, "According to the investigation we conducted, it should be at least 35 million!"

"Okay, then that's 35 million!" Chen Hao nodded directly, "But you must buy the land no matter what, you can make your own land anyway."

"Don't worry, Mr. Chen!" Zhang Chen promised after hearing this.

"Haotian Music released three albums in 2010, namely Li Yuchun's "Youth Huaxia", Sister He's "Want to Go Back to Sister He", and Jane Zhang's "@Music".

Among them, the physical album of "Young Huaxia" sold 600,000 copies, and the digital album reached 1.58 million.

Sister He's "I Want to Go Back to Sister He" has physical sales of 350,000 copies, and digital sales of 750,000 copies.

Jane Jane’s "@Music" has 400,000 physical pictures and 1.02 million digital sales.

In 2010, the company sold a total of 1.35 million physical albums, with revenue of 47.25 million yuan, 3.35 million digital albums, revenue of 33.5 million yuan, and tax revenue. The company's net profit in 2010 was 44.54 million.

In addition, in 2010, several singers under the company held 20 concerts, with revenue of RMB 350 million and net profit of RMB 58.4 million." Huo Shaowen said.

"In 2011, the company is preparing to release three albums, namely Zhang Jie's "After Tomorrow", Zhang Hanyun's "Not Completed First Love", and Xue's previous "The Unfinished Song"," said Huo Shaowen.

"Haotian Games launched a fantasy MMORPG in 2010, the real-time combat game "Divine Continent".

The number of online users in "The Continent of Gods and Demons" reached 350,000 in 24 hours, and the highest number of online users reached 480,000, and now it is basically stable at around 220,000.

With the previous developments, the company's monthly turnover has reached about 40 million yuan." Ding Hao said.

Games are really profitable, and the annual turnover is close to 500 million, and everyone can't help but sigh.

Chen Hao also smiled and nodded, "How is the mobile game development?"

"According to your suggestions from Mr. Chen, several mobile games are still under development or have been developed. However, due to network speed and memory issues, we need to make further optimizations." Ding Hao replied.

Chen Hao heard this and said, "Don't be in a hurry for the time being, adjust slowly and wait until the game is mature before going online."

At present, the game market is still the world of PC games, and mobile games are just starting out. After all, smartphones are not as popular as in later generations. Basically, everyone has one, so it is still time to go.
