Chapter 407 Company Annual Meeting (Continued) (Third Change)
"Then let me talk about Haotian's special effects!" Chang Hongsong said awkwardly and nervously.

Chen Hao raised his eyebrows when he saw this, it seemed that something was wrong with his expression!

"In 2004, Haotian Special Effects mainly participated in the production of "Man with No Surname", and took over 3 other special effects jobs, earning a total of 350 million yuan." Chang Hongsong said.

Everyone was taken aback when they heard the words, they didn't expect the special effects company to actually make money, and Chen Hao also looked surprised.

Not only was Yu Haotian Special Effects profitable, but also Yu Haotian Special Effects took on 3 jobs. It seems that Haotian Special Effects has gained certain recognition after participating in the production of "The Ninth District".

It's just that Chang Hongsong's expression just now is not so simple, there should be a but!
"Haotian Special Effects is applying for a budget of 2000 million yuan this year!" Chang Hongsong said hesitantly.

"Huh?" Everyone was taken aback again. They said they had made money just now, so why did they ask for so much money again?

Chen Hao also frowned and looked at Chang Hongsong.

Chang Hongsong had no choice but to say with a bitter face, "There are two reasons. The first is because I made a mistake when I made the budget for "Kung Fu Panda". After I actually made it, I realized that the money was burning too fast. The previous budget of 3500 million yuan was simply not enough. Support completes the entire movie.

Second, with the update of technology and equipment, we found that the pictures that had been made before could be made better. In line with the principle of excellence, many of the finished pictures were pushed to redo.

So, although we made money, we had to continue to apply for funds because of the animated movie "Kung Fu Panda". "

Everyone couldn't help shaking their heads when they heard the words, most of them still felt that it was completely unnecessary to engage in special effects, and they were completely gold-swallowing beasts.

Moreover, it is not appropriate to make animated films, because there is no market for animated films in the mainland. So far, no domestically produced animated films have even surpassed [-] million in box office.

It's just that this is under the sole leadership of Chen Hao, and it is not under the jurisdiction of each other, so everyone is silent.

Chen Hao nodded slowly when he heard the words, it is not so easy to do special effects, it is really not easy to produce results without a pile of money.

"I see." Chen Hao nodded, "But are you sure that 2000 million is enough? This is the only chance, and there will never be any more next time."

Everyone present raised their brows when they heard the words, and didn't say a word. They could only sigh secretly that their boss was really spending money like water, and he gave 2000 million as he said.

Chang Hongsong, who was a little nervous at first, was refreshed when he heard the words, and immediately replied, "Enough is enough, with this 2000 million I promise to be able to complete the production of "Kung Fu Panda", but in order to ensure the quality, the time has to be postponed a little more. Best of 2007!"

Chen Hao sighed when he heard the words. Seeing that this was his first time making a 4D animation film, he lacked experience, and in order to ensure the quality of the film, he tried to get off to a good start. With a [-]-year production cycle, Chen Hao nodded in agreement.

It’s no wonder that 3D animation in the Mainland cannot develop. The investment is huge and the cycle is long. The key is that there is no precedent for success in the market. If you don’t really love it, you can’t stick to it.

"Okay, I agree, but tonight, Mr. Chang, you have to punish yourself with three cups." Chen Hao said with a deep breath.

"It should be!" Chang Hongsong said with a smile all over his face, as long as he gave money, he would do anything!
"How many people has the company hired now?" Chen Hao asked again.

"The number of people in the entire company is close to 80." Chang Hongsong replied, and then hesitated, "Is it too many?"

"Not many, if you can recruit, continue to recruit and continue to train. In the future, there will be no less tasks for Haotian special effects." Chen Hao said, "This time I have recruited a lot of people to participate in my new film, so it will not affect the production of "Kung Fu Panda". ?”

"It doesn't matter. Now everyone is working in groups, so it won't affect much by transferring some people." Chang Hongsong said.

Now it is the influence, Chang Hongsong will not say it, Chen Hao has given Haotian special effects the greatest support, he can't hold back, he must do his best!
"Let me talk about Haotian Productions. Last year, the company produced the music talent show "Happy Girls", with an average audience rating of 0.48%, which has always ranked second in the same period, second only to CCTV!
On "Happy Girls", the company invested a total of 1100 million RMB, 1000 million in production costs, and 100 million in naming fees!
In terms of revenue, the first is advertising and SMS revenue. The regional competition and 7 finals, a total of 1800 million in advertising costs, and 600 million in SMS revenue.

Among them, the SMS revenue will be divided into 14% of the fees of the three major operators, so the company can share 1160 million yuan in total.

In addition, record income is 900 million, 1 concert is 100 million, advertising endorsement and entertainment brokerage are 1100 million, and the company can share 1000 million.

That is to say, the company's total revenue is 2160 million, and the remaining 1770 million after taxation is removed, and 1100 million investment is removed. In 2004, "Happy Girls" made a profit of 670 million for the company! " Long Danny said.

Everyone nodded in surprise. They didn't expect that the production of variety shows that everyone didn't like at the beginning actually earned more than 600 million RMB!
The variety shows in the mainland are not as good as those in Baodao, the island countries and South Korea, so it's no wonder that everyone is biased.

It's just that the unexpected money has been made now, so that everyone no longer has colored glasses for the existence of Haotian Production, and also recognizes Long Danny's ability.

"Because of the good performance of "Happy Girls" last year, the company will continue to cooperate with Shonan Satellite TV to launch 2005 "Happy Girls" this year. The budget is 2800 million. The two companies will share the cost equally, and we will pay 1400 million.

Last year's production budget of 2000 million was 800 million, plus last year's profit of 670 million, just enough for this year's production costs. " Long Danny said.

"There won't be any title sponsors this year, right?" Chen Hao asked with a smile.

"Of course not. After all, Zhuyu is ahead. Everyone is now unanimously optimistic that this year's "Happy Girls" will go to a higher level. Now many businesses have contacted the program group. The naming fee of Mengniu has exceeded [-] million yuan. !” Long Danny laughed.

There was a commotion at the scene. Before the show was produced, the naming fee was already tens of millions. It seems that this year's "Happy Girls" should be more profitable than last year!
Chen Hao naturally nodded happily. The brand effect of "Happy Girls" has been established, and it will be more stable and resounding when "Happy Girls" is released this year.

After all, this year's 2005 Happy Girls will become a legend in the history of mainland drafts!
When the brand name of the happy series is fully established, "happy boys" can be launched, and the brand of happy series will last for many years.

"Ahem, let me tell you about Haotian Happy Twist. Last year, the company created and performed a new drama "Twist 2·Love Influenza". It performed 10 consecutive performances in the imperial capital. The box office revenue and the company's expenses were basically balanced.

This year the company will continue to create new dramas to strive for better box office results. "Zhang Chen said.

Chen Hao expressed his understanding after hearing the words. After all, compared to film and television dramas and music, dramas are indeed relatively small, and Happy Twist is still in the early stages of development, and it is not bad to be able to achieve a balance of income and expenditure.

However, Chen Hao still gave Happy Twist a budget of 100 million yuan to update equipment and improve theater infrastructure.
