Chapter 399: 200 million a year, spend whatever you want
"Great, I don't plan to spend the New Year at home this year. I will go to Xiangjiang with your squad leader to celebrate the New Year." Ye Lihua said excitedly.
"Sister-in-law, are you sure the monitor has time to go to Xiangjiang to celebrate the New Year? Also, can your old man agree to your going to Xiangjiang to celebrate the New Year?" Zhang Junping asked with a smile.
The Ye family is not a small family, and the rules are very strict.
That's right, it's the Ye family you think of.
"Go away, can't you just let me fantasize for a while?" Ye Lihua glared angrily and cursed.
"Actually, the squad leader hasn't had a vacation for a long time. You can choose a period of time before the year to take a vacation and go to Xiangjiang to relax." Zhang Junping reminded with a smile.
"Yes! I want paid vacation!" Ye Lihua said with a smile.
"Okay, how about paid vacation and all expenses paid? Is it interesting?"
"That's pretty much it!"
After chatting with Ye Lihua for a while, Ye Lihua returned to her office.
After all, Zhang Junping has a lot of work to do every day.
Zhang Junping called Lu Zhaode and called him to the office.
"Lao Lu!"
"Chairman!"
"What are your thoughts on the development of ATV?"
"Chairman, I really don't have any ideas at the moment.
Since you informed me that you were going to Xiangjiang to take over ATV, I went to CCTV to do some research.
I have some ideas, but I'm a little confused.
We can only understand the situation of ATV clearly after arriving in Xiangjiang, and then make plans." Lu Zhaode said with a wry smile.
Although he spoke passionately at the meeting just now, he really didn't know what he was talking about.
"Well! If you are sincere, if you come up with a lot of plans for me, I will take you down right now and replace you." Zhang Junping said with a smile.
"Chairman, although I have worked in a television station for a period of time, our country's television station has just started.
Moreover, the social conditions in the two places are different, so I really have no place!"
"Well! In fact, TV stations in Xiangjiang, or in capitalist countries, are pretty much the same.
The only purpose is to grab ratings. Only when the ratings are high will advertisers come to advertise.
Their income depends on advertising fees from advertisers.”
"I know this. I talked about the business models of foreign TV stations with my friends who went abroad to inspect the operation of TV stations.
There are generally two models abroad. One is cable television, which makes money by charging monthly or annual viewing fees. Of course, there will also be some advertising revenue.
There is also a wireless TV station, which relies entirely on advertising revenue."
"Yeah!" Zhang Junping nodded.
"You are much happier than the directors of other capital-based national television stations.
Because you don’t need to think about profitability within ten years, you only need to think about how to increase ratings.
In other words, as long as you complete the ratings target I assigned you, it doesn't matter even if you don't make a penny.
The company will support you for ten years!
I’ll give you 200 million every year and let you spend it as hard as you can!” Zhang Junping said domineeringly.
"Chairman, are you telling the truth?"
"Can this still be a joke?"
"If you say that, then I'm not afraid anymore!" Lu Zhaode straightened his chest.
"Haha! You should know the purpose of acquiring ATV. There is a special meaning behind it.
Therefore, you don’t have to worry about losing money or anything, just have one goal, surpass TVB TV.
As long as you achieve this goal, a subsidy of 200 million yuan a year is just the minimum budget." Zhang Junping explained with a smile.
"I understand, Chairman, with your words, I know for sure that I will press TVB to the ground and rub it." Lu Zhaode excitedly came up with a new term.
“After ATV is acquired by us, there will be a disadvantage, and that is the pressure from Wanwan.
Wanwan is very despicable and likes to block celebrities.
As long as celebrities are close to us, they will be banned.
The purpose of giving you such a large budget is to give you the confidence to face the Wanwan ban.
Stars being banned simply mean that they are unable to take on more roles and receive more remuneration and advertising fees."
"Chairman, this is all childish. There is no filming. Let's give them filming so that they can earn remuneration.
There is no advertising fee, so we give them higher remuneration and use the remuneration to make up for the loss in advertising fees." Lu Zhaode said with a smile.
"It's great that you think so!
Don't worry about profitability, make more movies and make high-quality movies, so you don't have to worry about ratings.
Ordinary people don't care about that. When they watch TV, they just watch who makes better TV series."
Zhang Junping and Lu Zhaode communicated for a long time, encouraging Lu Zhaode and giving him vaccinations.
However, Zhang Junping did not say much about how to run a TV station.
He had never worked in a TV station and didn't know how to run it, so he didn't get involved much.
I'll give you enough support. If you still can't do it well, it can only be said to be a problem of ability, in which case Zhang Junping will have to consider replacing you.
When Zhang Junping summoned the heads of various departments to have a heart-to-heart talk, over in Xiangjiang.
In other words, the whole world has exploded. People in the design field call this year a carnival of design.
There is a design competition from mainland China, and the first place will be awarded a cash prize of 10 million US dollars, not including the design fee after being adopted, which has already excited everyone.
As a result, there was another one later, the Crystal Palace Design Competition, and the first place was awarded a direct award of 100 million US dollars.
How can we not make everyone extremely excited?
On the top floor of Xiangjiang Crystal Palace Building, in a huge office.
Ye Zhiming, Gao Yuanchao and Ding Changge sat together for a meeting to discuss the next development of Crystal Palace Entertainment Media Company.
"Mr. Ye, I think this Crystal Palace Building is very good. Do you think it would be great if we opened a nightclub in the Crystal Palace Building?" Gao Yuanchao asked with a smile in Ye Zhiming's office.
After the Connaught Building was purchased, it was renamed the Crystal Palace Building.
"Mr. Gao, you really dare to think about it!" Ye Zhiming was shocked by Gao Yuanchao's idea.
"Master Zhang once said that the most important thing in life is to dare to think and do.
You see, due to the influence of Hopewell Center and the current general environment, the occupancy rate of Crystal Palace is not high now.
Less than fifty percent.
There are so many empty places, it’s all money!
Although Mr. Zhang is not short of money, we can't just watch the money go down the drain, right?"
“But you don’t need such a big place to open a nightclub, right?
Moreover, once a nightclub is opened, it may cause the current tenants to cancel the lease." Ye Zhiming shook his head with a wry smile.

Gao Yuanchao's idea is really too far-fetched.
"It's good to cancel the lease!" Gao Yuanchao high-fived.
"They canceled the lease, and we just took it all back and renovated it as a whole.
There is a nightclub downstairs and a hotel upstairs.
hey-hey!
After playing downstairs, I took the girl upstairs directly." Gao Yuanchao said with a smile.
"This..." Ye Zhiming pondered the feasibility of Gao Yuanchao's idea in his mind.
He was a little undecided about the idea of converting the Crystal Palace building into a nightclub and hotel.
