Actor: Thank you.

Planning the affairs of Tangren Film and Television.

Boss Cai always thought that Zhang Yuan just wanted to gain some benefits and fame from the sugar man and get some good roles to film.

But from the very beginning, Zhang Yuan's plan was to bite off a piece of meat from the sugar man.

He has been waiting patiently, taking his time, and is not in any hurry at all.

Just like the weak moment when Hua Yi was waiting for Wang Jinhua to leave...

"Are you done with your call?"

As soon as he put down his phone, Li Xiaoran poked his head out of the bathroom.

"Didn't I tell you to wash first?"

"When you come, I can rub your back." Dabai rubbed his hands.

"And..." As she spoke, she stretched out a long, white thigh from the door frame, then bent down and gently ran her index finger across the surface of the thigh.

"You can also rub my back."

Using this kind of thing to test cadres all the time!

Zhang Yuan angrily began to take off his clothes.

After rinsing, as Dabai said, she helped Zhang Yuan start rubbing his back.

But she didn't rub it with her hands...

After taking a shower, the two of them soaked in the hot tub together.

It is often said that there is passion between men and women.

But love and desire often have to be discussed separately.

The reason why men and women never get tired of each other is either because of love or because of desire.

Zhang Yuan has been with Li Xiaoran for more than half a month, but he doesn't seem to be tired of her at all.

Because of this person's figure and experience, her "desire" is basically maxed out.

Of course, it's not that there is no emotion.

But for Zhang Yuan, the ratio of sexual desire is about 20:80, and desire has an absolute advantage.

But for Li Xiaoran, the ratio is somewhat different.

In the incident with Boss Sun, Zhang Yuan only gave advice but did not intervene directly.

But to her, their story is more like a knight and a princess.

Zhang Yuan helped her escape from the evil dragon Boss Sun and was injured in the process.

In return, it is reasonable for the princess to dedicate herself to taking care of the knight.

Besides, the knight's shiny silver spear was long and sharp, and his marksmanship was superb, which won her heart.

So her sexual desire ratio was also 28 at the beginning, but as time went by, it has reached 46, or even 50:50.

However, all good things must come to an end...

"Today is my last night in Xiaotangshan."

While hugging each other in the hot water, Zhang Yuan narrowed his eyes and whispered.

"Oh... don't you still have to go to Anji Bamboo Sea to film for a few days?" Li Xiaoran opened his eyes, tilted his head that was resting on his shoulder, and replied.

"I'll go over there with you, okay?"

Zhang Yuan hesitated for a few seconds: "You haven't had any work recently?"

“Work is to make money, make money is to spend.”

"Why do you have to work so hard every day when you have money to spend?"

Li Xiaoran's mental state is twenty years ahead of the rest.

"Okay, I'll call you when I get to Angie's place."

"Well!" Dabai smiled: "How about I go home with you tomorrow."

"It saves us from having to go to Anji separately."

Zhang Yuan: …

If I take this home, Cheng Hao will tear me to pieces!

I'm gonna break the gun barrel.

"No, I'm going to Hong Kong soon and can't stay at home for a few days."

"Then I'll accompany you to Hong Kong, where we can go shopping." Dabai was determined to stick to him.

"I'll only be gone for a few days. My schedule is tight and I don't have time to spend with you."

"Besides, we're only going for a few days and we're bringing a companion with us. It would be bad if someone saw us."

"You also know how powerful the paparazzi in Hong Kong are..."

"Oh..." Li Xiaoran nodded with some disappointment.

The experience at night was still wonderful, but after the other party was tired and fell asleep, Zhang Yuan looked at her white and smooth back, thinking about something in his heart.

“It’s not easy…”

In terms of ability, appearance, and popularity, Li Xiaoran is the type who is good at everything, but not outstanding in any one of them.

It's almost in between Zeng Li and Yuan Quan.

She has starred in many hit TV series and has also produced some drama king-level works in later generations, but because of her personality, she does not have the career ambition of the Four Dan and Two Bing, and has never become a top-tier star.

At most it can be considered a first-line.

Bringing such an actress to the company can certainly enhance its reputation and make a lot of money.

But looking at her attitude towards me... it's easy to get into trouble if I keep her around.

Zhang Yuan thought that Dabai had a nice personality and was a very nice person.

So I have to find a chance to talk things out with her before I consider it.

……

There was nothing to say all night, and it was dawn the next day.

Early in the morning, the two packed their luggage and went back to their respective homes.

After putting down his luggage in the small courtyard, Zhang Yuan went to the large courtyard in Fuyuan Hutong, which covered an area of ​​more than 1,200 square meters.

Under the supervision of Zhao Decai, the hard decoration of the yard has been almost completed.

This part alone cost Zhang Yuan nearly three million yuan, which was enough to buy two ordinary houses with four bedrooms and two living rooms in Wangjing.

The smell is dissipating now, and when the summer is over, we can move things in.

"How is it? Not bad!" Fatty Zhao patted his belly proudly.

"good."

Although it covers an area of ​​1,200 square meters, the building area is only more than 300 square meters. However, because it is a two-story building, the usable area is about 600 to 700 square meters.

"We have both Chinese and Western chefs, enough for more than ten chefs to work together."

“They are all installed according to hotel kitchen standards.”

"There are also two small reception rooms and one large reception room."

"Not to mention accommodation, it would be no problem to use it as an office or a private kitchen to entertain guests. It would definitely not be embarrassing."

Red beams and pillars, and tea-colored carvings, Zhao Decai specially helped him decorate according to the principle of "restoring the old as it was".

It is indeed grand and simple, low-key and luxurious.

After all, he is one of us, and he does a great job.

However, after Zhang Yuan walked around, he found that the space was well-equipped and the front and back gardens were spacious, but it lacked a bit of the feeling of home.

"It seems that the bigger the house, the better..."

He felt that this place was more like a combination of a hotel and a club, and it didn't feel cozy at all.

"Once this place is completely finished and ready for occupancy, I'll move in."

"Please help me redecorate the small courtyard in Pi Tiao Hutong."

"Ah, you already have it here, why don't you sell that place?" Zhao Decai was very surprised.

"Just stay there and use it as your private residence for your own use."

“It’s more convenient to entertain friends here.”

"Oh, that's fine." Zhao Decai thought to himself that Zhang Yuan was increasingly showing the temperament of a big boss.

Big shots do value privacy, and their real residences are rarely used for entertaining.

"Also, I got some money back recently. Do you have any good houses?"

"Wow, that's great." Fatty Zhao exclaimed, my brother has become rich.

"Drawing Sword" was a big hit, and more than twenty TV stations of all sizes bought the broadcasting rights. His 30% share alone earned more than 10 million yuan.

This is just this year, and there will be copyright fees every year in the future.

"Wulin Waijia" also finished broadcasting after the New Year.

In order to make way for the Spring Festival Gala, the last few episodes were suspended on CCTV for one day.

Just because the show was suspended on that one day, CCTV received a lot of complaint letters and phone calls.

Compared to the Spring Festival Gala which gets worse year by year, the audience is obviously more interested in "Wulin Waijia".

There were even fans saying on the forum that CCTV stopped broadcasting "Wulin Waijia" for one day because they were afraid that the finale of the film would steal the popularity and ratings of the Spring Festival Gala.

This is definitely nonsense.

But it also reflects the popularity of the show from the side.

In addition to letters of complaint, CCTV also received a large number of letters of petition, with viewers expressing that they had not seen enough.

But the popularity of CCTV's TV series broadcast schedule is comparable to that of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 45. There is no time to replay it for you.

But the audience's enthusiasm had to be responded to, so after the show was broadcast on CCTV-8, it was immediately arranged to be broadcast again on the Imperial Capital Channel under the China Education Television in March.

In less than two months, two high-end TV stations in the imperial capital alone were broadcasting the show. When other channels saw how popular it was, they naturally flocked to it just like they did with "Drawing Sword."

Although the price of a single episode of a sitcom is low, Zhang Yuan owns a higher proportion of the shares in this drama, reaching 50%.

So I earned more than 10 million.

These two TV series have brought him nearly 25 million in revenue. There is also a small episode.

After "Drawing Sword" became a hit, an online platform immediately approached us. Hairun was more cautious and sold the online broadcasting rights for five years.

But in 06, the price of online broadcasting rights was very low, so low that it was unimaginable!

In 2012, due to the popularity of "Empresses in the Palace" the previous year, the price of online broadcasting rights for TV series doubled compared to 11.

How many times has the price of TV drama online broadcasting copyright increased from 06 to 11?

An average of 300 times!
Not 30 times, but 300 times!
Because many online platforms have been successfully listed in the past 10 years, and the radio and television authorities have introduced copyright management policies for online platforms, the price of online broadcasting copyrights has risen sharply.

In the past five or six years, the revenue has increased from a few thousand yuan per episode to hundreds of thousands of yuan per episode!
The five-year online broadcasting rights of the national drama "Drawing Sword" were sold for just over 200,000 yuan.

Zhang Yuan only owns more than 30% of the shares and has no say, so he can only let Hairun "sell at a low price".

But soon, Hao Yaning, the producer of "Wulin Waijiao", also called him.

It is said that a video website called Ku6.com wants to buy the online broadcasting rights of "Wulin Waijia".

Zhang Yuan calculated that Ku6.com has not yet opened for business and will not be online until the middle of the year.

Oh, they want to find a popular TV series to promote the platform in the early stage of its launch.

So Mao was on "Wulin Waijia" whose online broadcast rights had not yet been sold.

The reason why Hao Yaning called him was because the other party was very generous and offered a "sky-high price" of one million!
Compared with the 200,000 yuan for "Drawing Sword", it is indeed a sky-high price.

But the contract period is ten years!

He owns 50% of the film, so if Hao Yaning wants to sell it, he has to discuss it with him in advance.

ten years?

You want to buy the online broadcast rights for 16 years for just one million?

Then I’m going to suffer a huge loss!

Of course Zhang Yuan disagreed.

Old Hao tried his best to persuade him, saying that one million was already a lot and if he missed this opportunity, he would miss it forever.

In those days, everyone was short-sighted, and online broadcasting rights were just a bonus for most production companies.

After much discussion, Zhang Yuan finally had an idea.

"How about this, I'll give you one million, and you sell all the online broadcasting rights to me, and I'll distribute them."

Hao Yaning thought about it and realized that the original amount was one million, and several investors had to share the profits.

If you get it now, won’t you make more money?
This deal can be done!

In this way, he only spent one million to acquire all the online copyrights of "Wulin Waijia".

Zhang Yuan found Ku6.com again, but only signed a five-year contract.

So the other party also lowered the price and only offered 55.

He readily agreed.

After Hao Yaning found out about this, he laughed at him behind his back and called him a fool.

He could have made hundreds of thousands of dollars, but in his hands, the business ended up with a net loss of hundreds of thousands. This young man doesn't have a good brain.

Zhang Yuan was too lazy to pay attention to him.

After the five-year copyright expires and he sells it at a sky-high price 11 years later, he will know who the idiot is.

"The Lotus Lantern" will also be broadcast in the next few days.

Changchang is busy attending activities with the crew.

Once this movie is finished, I will be able to earn a large sum of money.

Plus the overseas copyright fees for "Crazy Stone" sold in Berlin.

In fact, he had already reached a contract with Huayi for 4000 million yuan in revenue for the first year.

As long as he waits for the revenue from "The Lotus Lantern", he can easily shock the young people of the two Wang brothers who have little money.

As a result, one of the two chains that Hua Yi had put around his neck was loosened by more than half.

What we need to deal with now is the chain of the Xiang family.

Zhang Yuan already has a response strategy, which will be implemented soon.

In addition to these incomes that belong to the film and television company and are within the scope of the gambling agreement.

Zhang Yuan also asked Shu Chang to follow the financial team to visit several of his remaining related companies.

Deyuan Society already has two branches, and the third one is now under renovation.

The two small theaters have a total of nearly 500 seats, with an average attendance rate of 70% to 80%, and two shows a day.

Therefore, last year, the income from small theaters and commercial performances reached an astonishing 10 million!

Deyuan Society has become completely popular!
Moreover, the operating costs of the small theater are actually very low. After deducting taxes and costs from the revenue of several hundred million, the net profit is more than six million.

Zhang Yuan also received more than three million in dividends.

The catering company is also doing well, with the number of team members having grown to over 40.

After distributing dividends to Zhao Jin and Cao Jianjun and giving red envelopes to everyone, Zhang Yuan still made a profit of about two million.

This is neither too much nor too little money.

Because the box lunch business can easily reach a bottleneck, after all, the crews they can come into contact with are mainly small and medium-sized.

There are too many people with connections watching the top crews, and Zhang Yuan can't get involved now.

Take "Curse of the Golden Flower" for example. At its peak, the number of extras alone numbered several thousand per day!
Just think about how much money it would cost just for food.

But Zhang Weiping made his fortune in airline catering, so how could he let others interfere?

The same goes for Feng Xiaogang. There are also people with connections within Huayi who are eyeing this piece of fat meat.

So Zhang Yuan thought that the catering company must either rely on itself to build up its own connections, or transform and add other businesses. Otherwise, its performance growth can only rely on the continuous expansion of the film and television industry and thus take advantage of it.

Finally, the finance department also sent the financial report of the drama club "Happy Dough Sticks".

After Zhang Yuan invested millions to invite celebrities to watch the show and thus made the team popular, the drama club developed well.

Although it is not as good as Deyuan Society, it is also growing steadily.

And it already has many loyal fans.

There were a total of 200 performances last year, with an average attendance rate of just under %.

The revenue also reached nearly four million.

Zhang Yuan holds 70% of the shares of this team.

However, he did not take all the dividends. Instead, after settling the accounts with the two shareholders, he took out 20% of the profits from his 70% stake and used it to distribute dividends to his employees, including actors, screenwriters, and directors.

Doing so can enhance the enthusiasm of employees.

Secondly, since he seldom went to the drama club, he could establish his prestige in the hearts of his employees through this method, so that the remaining two shareholders would not become rebellious when they saw the business getting better and better, and instigate the actors to leave.

As long as you pay enough, who would leave?

He also planned that in a few years, when the profits were better and the actors became more famous, he would take out some of his shares and distribute them as options to core creators like Shen Teng, so as to firmly control the company's basic foundation.

So a while ago, after Shu Chang calculated all night, he called him with the account book in hand, dumbfounded.

He now has more than 30 million in liquid funds in his account.

Even after paying off the bank loan, there will still be more than 20 million in funds.

This does not include Zhang Yuan’s own film pay, advertising endorsements, and business income.

If you include the brokerage firm’s profits.

Although the company has few people, there are only three permanent employees: Wang Baoqiang, Yao Cheng and Shu Chang.

However, the advantage is that although there are few people, they are all elite and have brought in millions of profits.

Therefore, the funds he has available now are probably less than 40 million.

That's why he wants to buy some more real estate.

"Besides residential buildings, do you have channels for office buildings?" Zhang Yuan asked Fatty Zhao again.

"Yes, there are, but office buildings are expensive!" Fatty Zhao was shocked. The price of office buildings in the imperial capital is very shocking.

"It's not that kind of building, just a small building in the industrial park. It has to be in a good location, but the area doesn't need to be too big."

Zhang Yuan thought, with more and more people in the company in the future, they can’t all work from home, right?

"I have a project under construction near the Wangjing residence I sold you before. It's exactly like what you said, an entrepreneurial park."

"There are buildings ranging from three-story low-rise buildings to seven-story high-rise buildings."

"It's hard to say what the opening price will be. The price has increased dramatically there, but I estimate it won't be more than 10,000. If you go through me, you can get a discount."

"The property certificate area of ​​a three-story building is about 800 square meters, while a seven-story building is much larger, with each floor having to be 500 square meters, for a total of nearly 4000 square meters."

Hiss...Zhang Yuan suddenly felt that he was still a poor man.

He can't possibly use up all his money to buy pre-sale properties, as that would break his funding chain and lead to a miserable death.

"Don't worry. The project is still under construction. It will take more than a year to hand over the house. Maybe by then, you won't be short of money." Fatty Zhao laughed.

Zhang Yuan shrugged: "Thank you for your good words."

Since he couldn't afford to buy an office building, he asked Fatty Zhao to help him find some new properties in excellent locations.

I spent about 10 million to buy five ordinary houses in the Third Ring Road. House prices have already risen this year.

The price of this location has increased from 12,000 to 13,000 to 15,000 or 16,000.

The prelude to China's soaring housing prices has begun to emerge in its capital.

He still has 20 to 30 million yuan of funds left in his hands, which are reserves for the next six months and cannot be touched for the time being.

Cheng Hao felt very distressed after knowing that he had kept the money in a current account in the bank for all these years.

"If you buy a large-denomination certificate of deposit, the annual interest will be nearly one million..."

This amount of money was enough for Zhang Yuan to enter the bank's VIP room and have a young lady squatting on his stomach to introduce him to financial projects.

But Zhang Yuan was very clear-headed and knew that now was not the time to enjoy himself.

In today's era, if you fail to keep up, you may lose hundreds of millions or even billions of money-making opportunities in the future.

He had only been at home for a day or two when he received a call from Eagle King.

"Baby Project" has reached the later stage of filming, it's time to play a small cameo role... (End of this chapter)
