Chapter 28 The Passage of School-Enterprise Cooperation

It's not just the expenses of his own company, Jinxi Culture. In order to increase revenue, Jin Shang even spent part of the money in advance to repair the damaged stands of the stadium during the summer break in the middle of the year, adding nearly [-] seats.

The most profitable things under the name of the Jin family are Internet cafe revenue and game day ticket revenue.

If it weren't for the stable business of the Internet cafe, Jin Shang would have planned to find a bank loan to turn around.

When "Jingxi Metropolis Daily" and "Miscellaneous Talk" are officially released, the main business of Jinxi Culture will not appear too slanted.

If the field of cultural media can be self-sufficient, or even have a slight surplus, and expand steadily, there is no need to fill the gap with income from Internet cafes, and energy can be used to improve portal websites and instant messaging software that are in the pipeline.

"Uncle Zheng, I have worked hard on you during this time."

"President Xiao Jin is being polite. Your father asked me to come for this purpose."

For a company full of young people, there is enough energy, and there is no mature and prudent checker, and sometimes it is easy to run into a wall.

There is Zheng Liangzhi who checks for omissions and fills in vacancies from time to time, which really makes Jin Shangshao take a lot of detours.

"Does Uncle Zheng have any warnings this afternoon?"

"I don't know much about computers and the Internet, Mr. Jin can make up his own mind. But, there is one thing to pay attention to..."

After thinking about it, Zheng Liangzhi said with a smile,
"When talking about cooperation with teachers at the school, money is definitely very important, but other aspects must also be paid attention to. After all, they are not company employees, but cadres with administrative levels in the system, and at worst are respected scholars and scientists. Sometimes , decency and political achievements are more important than making money."

It doesn't matter if you don't make money, as long as your social status is still there, you can still get it back if you change places.But if he loses face and is useless in the professional field, it will be difficult to get along in the future.

"I... probably understand, don't let them down in the field where they make a living, even if their technical level and knowledge may not keep up with the times because they are out of society."

Zheng Liangzhi nodded approvingly:
"If it is said that the circles of literature, art and film and television are only drifting away from the soil where they took root because of arrogance and selfishness, most of the teachers in the ivory tower are insensitive to social changes, obsessed with academics, and only care about themselves. The fields they are good at are spinning, and they are relatively naive and full of ideals. They are too well protected by the school, and they are too highly praised by the general public, and gradually they cannot gain a foothold outside their comfort zone.”

"Isn't this better? What everyone respects is only their academic level and scientific research ability. To be honest, if there is a perfect person with superior IQ, advanced academics, and sophisticated knowledge, I dare not think that such a person will do evil. How terrible it is."

Zheng Liangzhi's words really pointed out some trends in today's university campuses. The separation of industry, university and research institutes, the inability to form effective linkages, the low conversion rate of scientific research results, and the high difficulty of commercialization are common problems of this era.

However, like Jin Shang in his previous life, he was bound by rules and regulations. Graduate tutors were dubbed "bosses", scientific researchers were forced to have nowhere to go, and the college even ended up running "school-run enterprises" in person. Is it a good policy?

Schools are not like schools, and companies are not like companies. Scholars do not study academics and spend all their time thinking about completing the task of publishing papers. Mentors combine social resources to squeeze cheap graduate students and do jobs called internships, which are actually temporary workers. The problems caused by it may be Only a lot more than now.

At least the current academic corruption is not so exaggerated and blatant.

Jin Shang's few words made Zheng Liangzhi look sideways. After thinking for a while, he had to admit that it is better to have a purer university environment. It is too utilitarian, which is not good for academic research.

"According to your idea, Xiao Huang, Xiao Li and I can only do small things at that time, and remind omissions when necessary."

"Of course, I'm the boss, so I have to shoulder some responsibilities."

The cooperation with the School of Computer Science is very important. Not only will there be two heavyweight professors present, but also several graduate students brought out to see the world, as well as the leaders of the School of Architecture and Urban Planning as referees.

It's not easy to ask out experts who are usually invisible. If Jin Shang is not this year's outstanding graduate, he is a well-known young genius from Beijing Normal University, it may not be possible to get on the line.

I usually don't pay attention to maintaining the relationship, but when I really need it, I find that there are shortcomings everywhere.

Fortunately, the flame of incense is not broken, and the graduates of our school are willing to give back to the school and spend real money to engage in industry-university-research cooperation. The school is still happy to see the results.

……

In the morning, there was still some time, and Jin Shang took Li Xuan to visit the fan's home, especially to see how the business of the Internet cafe was.

After several times of rectification, the order inside is much better, and the game day will not be too chaotic.

There are quite a few fans who come to the Internet today. Jin Shang actually saw two local tyrants playing chess online. a lot of.

In the words of a few old men from good families nearby, it’s better to surf the Internet than fool around in nightclubs, and you don’t have to worry about getting something dirty.

30 yuan for an hour is really not cheap, so it’s cheaper to go to the club to be chic?

After inspecting all five locations, Li Xuan had a general understanding of the Internet cafe business.

When I heard that the net profit in a month was more than 100 million, I couldn't help being speechless.

Jin Shang replied with a smile:

"Actually, after the novelty, the revenue once fell by 15.00%, and then gradually recovered. Now there is even a trend of hitting a new high?"

"Is there more people surfing the Internet?"

"No, the sales of coffee, tea, pastries, fruit, ice cream and cigarettes have gone up."

Even, because of the increase in the flow of people, even the sales of jerseys, tickets and various souvenirs have increased a lot.

"This……"

It's a little different from Li Xuan's cognition, and even Jin Shang hasn't advertised how profitable these humble consumptions are before.

This is the same as amusement parks, shopping malls, zoos, museums, scenic spots and other places where selling tickets and direct consumption do not necessarily make much money. The income from parking lots is the real big one. , Coca-Cola drinks are the root cause of the big profits.

Of course, Internet cafes now earn a lot of Internet fees, and peripherals and non-staple food are starting to work hard, which is a surprise.

Coupled with the soon-to-be-on-track media revenue, game ticket revenue, peripheral sales, and the profit sharing from the single "A Man Should Be Self-Reliant", it can be predicted that Jinxi Culture will not be at risk of bankruptcy in a short period of time.

After entering a virtuous circle, some things can be rolled out step by step.

For example, the garment factory under Lao Jin’s command has a lot of old-fashioned ready-made garments overstocked in warehouses. The styles are relatively old. There is no channel to send to those who need it.

In previous years, most of these clothes in stock were donated by Lao Jin to charity organizations, sent to remote mountainous areas, and distributed free of charge to those in need.

How to clear these inventories is the first test task that Jin Shang entrusts to Li Xuan.

How to do it is not necessarily difficult, because Jinshang has not set a profit target. As long as it can be sold smoothly, it doesn't matter if you earn more or less. Reducing the inventory pressure is a great achievement.

On Sun Daqi's Yellow Pages website, there are many trading companies with strong business needs. The demand for ready-made clothes is still quite large. The people in Beijing who pursue fashion don't look at slightly rustic fashions, and they are still very popular in other places.

After portal websites and instant messaging software gain a firm foothold, you can try B2B, which is a relatively primitive business model in which merchants trade goods, services, and information.

By directly skipping many intermediate links, you can offer a relatively low wholesale price. Logically speaking, there is still a certain profit margin.

As for whether it will work, you have to try it to know.

Near noon, Jin Shang and Li Xuan went to watch the performance of the cheering group of fans led by He Laoxi, taught the fans to sing "Men should be self-improvement", chatted with everyone for a while, had a working meal, and rested for more than two hours, before the game Before the opening, we waited for the news that the school teacher led the team.

The leaders were Professor Lu Wei, Jin Shang's advisor, Gong Lin, the vice dean of the School of Architecture and Urban Planning, Huang Kunyu, director of the School of Computer Science, and Professor Zhang Youling.

Followed by two students, a girl and a boy, one of them had a relationship with Jin Shang a few times, Li Xuan's friend Li Rong from the girl department, was slightly fat, of medium height, and always seemed to be festive with a smile on her face girl.

The other thin boy was wearing more refined gold-rimmed glasses, which seemed to be a little cramped as he rarely appeared on such occasions.

Jin Shang asked Li Xuan and Huang Yiyi to take the two "students" from the School of Computer Science to chat first, while he and Zheng Liangzhi chatted with several teachers who were generally in their 40s or nearly 50 years old.

The VIP room of the Northern United Club in Beijing is not small. After all, it was a place where foreign friends and relatives of the royal family often visited. The luxurious interior has aged with the passage of time, but the simple and elegant style is still there.

"It's just this set of tables and chairs. The price is sky-high outside. I don't know how many people are looting them."

After Director Huang Kunyu and Vice President Gong Lin sat down, they touched the smooth handles on the chairs and couldn't help sighing,

"More than 100 years ago, maybe the emperor sat there..."

Jin Shang responded embarrassingly:

"The chair that the emperor sat on was crushed by me when I was a child. I sent it to the museum and asked old experts to repair it. After repairing it, they didn't return it. They said it was a precious cultural relic. I sent a high imitation back with an attached A certificate of recognition for a voluntary donation."

"Ha ha……"

The roar of laughter rang out, Zheng Liangzhi looked at the faces of everyone present, but found nothing unusual, so he followed up with a few words and watched Jin Shang perform by himself.

Gong Lin looked at the fans outside and began to enter the stadium. The game was about 10 minutes away before he asked Jin Shang:

"I heard that the club will spend money to upgrade this year. Is it true? My whole family are club fans, but I'm not fanatical enough, so every time I come to the scene, my family members dislike me, saying that I'm too elegant to watch the football... "

"This year is a good opportunity. Six teams have been promoted. I don't know what year it will be next time."

Kim Sang replied,

"Fix the stadium first, expand the seats, and 5 people will enter the stadium every game. The momentum is not small."

The home stadium of the Beijing Northern United football team has the highest attendance rate in the low-level leagues. The game day revenue is the envy of some top league teams. Unfortunately, the broadcast rights of the low-level leagues cannot be sold, and the advertising sponsorship fees are also far behind. Otherwise, they wouldn't have been hanging around in the low-level leagues.

"It's good to wait until the second level. The A-Chou level already has a stable TV broadcast. If you buy two good foreign players, it will not be difficult to keep the level."

What Gong Lin said was exactly what Jin Shang thought.

From the third level down, foreign players are not allowed to sign foreign players, and the ban is lifted on the second level. There is no limit to the number of imports, but the ugly league can only play three per game, and the top league Jiashien can play four.

The upgrade has been rapid in the past few years, but the club's infrastructure and business development have not kept pace.

In the first-level league, the wages of players will be greatly increased. If you can't find a proud advertising sponsor, the pressure on daily operations will be great.

Several people were chatting, and unconsciously, time passed quickly, the referee and players entered the field, lined up for a group photo, and after the national anthem was played, the game began.

Today's opponent is from western Guangdong. The average height of the players is a head shorter than the members of the Beijing Northern United football team.Although they have the advantages of flexible feet and tacit cooperation, they are only a third-tier team. They are obviously not used to the home team with strict discipline and tough style.

Coupled with the bursts of cheers from the sidelines, the home team's morale was boosted, and they launched wave after wave of attacks on the visiting team. By the end of halftime, they were already leading [-]-[-].

Jin Shang, who felt that the victory in this game was a sure thing, boasted contentedly:
"The annual goal of upgrading was only publicly communicated to the team yesterday, and the winning award has also been increased a lot. It seems that it is really effective. Running a football team still requires spending money. In the previous era of relying on feelings and enthusiasm to maintain the situation, one There will never be a return."

Zhang Youling, who is considered half of the home team's fans, also echoed in agreement:
"Our school also has a school team. Its strength is not very good. It has been stuck in the fifth level. It has been a few years since it hit the professional level.

Jin Shang responded implicitly:

"With the strength of our school team, it is not a problem to hire a good coach. If you spend enough money, you can even become an elevator for the Jiayin group (the strength is not enough compared to the top, but it is more than the bottom, and you can upgrade and relegate back and forth). The school doesn't support it anymore."

"Well! It depends on the strength of the school's support!"

Huang Kunyu took advantage of the intermission and asked Jin Shang when the hustle and bustle outside stopped for a while.
"The School of Computer Science is still very interested in cooperation, but there are some things that need to be clarified in advance..."
