Please make money.

Alia took the document and glanced at it. It was basic statistics on various revenues during the Spring Festival.

To be honest, she was too lazy to read the first part because it was too long, so she turned directly to the back to read the summary, and then her eyes widened.

"Did you make a mistake?" She turned back: "How long is the Spring Festival holiday?"

"Although the holiday is 15 days, it actually counts as almost a month."

"Then there is definitely something wrong with your data. Did you mix up the quarterly financial report?"

"No, there isn't. It's just the revenue statistics for this holiday, listed separately."

Why list it separately?

In less than a month, the company generated revenue equivalent to what it had earned in a quarter last year.

And that’s not even counting the orders that haven’t been shipped—such as the 60 billion drones that the Big Three want.

"The box office of Wandering Blue Star should be around 150 billion. According to the share ratio and other expenses, we will get about 90 billion in the end."

It is not difficult to make a movie, and it is not surprising that it sells well, but a movie with a box office of 13.5 billion yuan can only bring back dividends of about 90 billion yuan.

This rate of return has even ranked second in the history of world cinema...

The first place is the famous Smurfs Avatar, whose profit is about 97 billion.

If Alia didn't do that thing of lifetime profit fund, her 65% return rate would be fully maximized, and she could actually compete with Avatar.

But everyone knows that Alia is a man of her word. She divided the money as she said, and there was still so much left after dividing it.

Alia sat back in her chair, turned around and faced the floor-to-ceiling glass window, continuing to look at the details of each income.

The movie dividend was 90 billion, and the profit from peripheral sales exceeded 10 billion, which makes a total of billion.

Note that this is profit, not revenue.

Many medium-sized listed companies cannot earn this much money in a year...

But for Alia or the Ai Group, movies are not even a side job. In the early days, it was just a hobby.

Later, the joint activities launched by the super invincible marketing master Ai Houwang were like a stab in the buttocks to open a big eye for friendly competitors.

Now that you’ve learned how to make movies and sell peripheral products, let me teach you how to collaborate with IPs!

As we all know, the target audience of the Little Broken Ball is young people, and they are the kind of young people with a certain purchasing power.

If you talk about buying a house or a car, they are still struggling at this stage.

But if you want to buy movie tickets, a few cups of milk tea, a game console or cartridges, then it just hits the budget range.

It’s the New Year, and since you’re here, what’s wrong with buying yourself a game console worth a few hundred dollars to reward yourself?

Besides, you can choose two from eight cartridges, plus a chance to draw a prize to choose two from any loss coupons, which makes four game cartridges. It would be a shame not to take advantage of such a good deal.

We made a lot of money, but Alia cried because of the loss!

Did Arya actually lose money? Obviously not...

Things like cassettes are similar to CDs - what's truly valuable is not the carrier, but the content inside.

But game content is data. Once developed, the benefits can be enjoyed for life, and the cost of copying it to a carrier is extremely low.

In another world, Renkuai coupons can only be redeemed for electronic versions of games.

But if it is exchanged for a physical cassette in this world, for 30 yuan, even with an % discount, guess how much Alia can earn?

This is the Spring Festival special offer only available in China. The price is even higher in places like Sakura City.

This is like an Ailia's CD, for example, "Dou Xiang" which she recorded on a whim before, which sells for 29 yuan in China.

But this thing is sold for 1500 yen in Sakura Empire...

Will there be any essential difference in the cost price of the CDs?

Obviously not, the burned CD costs less than a dollar, even including the labor cost.

So Alia didn't just cry because she was wronged, she was crying because she was wronged, and her tears fell into her stomach.

"The sales volume of 40 million has almost cleared out all the inventory for conversion."

After the disaster relief work, the production line 'contracted' by Alia was not idle either, and it quickly switched production and prepared some goods for sale.

Among them, the semi-iteration model GBA-SP, which players affectionately call the 'flip GBA', accounted for the majority of production.

Firstly, this thing will definitely sell well during the holidays. Alia had made up her mind to cheat a lot of good kids out of their red envelopes and New Year's money.

Secondly, this thing is easy to make, has a high yield rate, and does not require much technical content.

But what Alia didn't expect was that the Donghuang Market could be so exaggerated...

In the history of another world, it cannot be said that Nintendo has no achievements in the Donghuang market, but it has always been lukewarm.

Xiao Shenyou, which acted as an agent, was unable to obtain access and had to enter the market by skirting the rules. Although its sales were good, it obviously failed to activate the potential of the entire market.

It’s different for Alia. There is no relevant ban on game consoles in this world. In addition, the Ai Group is Donghuang’s own daughter, so there is no need for any access.

Therefore, the outstanding performance of the other world line seems to be not good enough in front of the Donghuang supermarket.

Over there, including GBASP and GBM, the global sales volume exceeded 8151 million during its life cycle, which is a true legend.

But in Donghuang, Alia has fully expanded its production capacity for a single product, and can ship more than 4000 million units in a month...

No wonder Chongqing companies dream of entering the Donghuang market; its size is too scary.

Although Alia herself feels that it will be difficult to replicate such a myth in the future, now the time, place and people are all right.

Time: During the New Year holiday, the mythical beasts are making a lot of noise at home.

Advantages of location: Made locally, good quality and low price, no pressure on the price of 200+.

Renhe: Alia swipes her face card - Ding! One of our own!

Ailia is now in Donghuang. Although she did not debut as an idol like she did in Sakura Empire, she is also quite famous.

How do you say that?

Although Alia's grades were not ideal, she was admitted to something after all.

Just after the Chinese New Year, the game suddenly brought Alia another terrifying wave of cash flow of tens of billions of dollars, and she has to think about spending money.

"I'm going to build a data center." Alia confirmed her idea: "A very large data center."

"How big?"

“It’s very, very big, so big that it covers our current mobile terminals, game consoles and even future online game platform cloud archives.”

Alia wants to create an all-in-one card for cloud storage of mobile phone big data, membership services for game consoles, cloud archives for online games, and the like.

What she hates most is the various authentication, binding and registration processes. It would be great if she could have less worries.

Don’t let the time come when she creates an online game store, or even gives away games for free, and the first thing players do after receiving the games is to retrieve their passwords.

You said so, E-bao...

In order to integrate these services together, one or even several super-large data centers are inevitable.

Prime Minister Lei fell into deep thought. Alia was only responsible for spending money and giving bad advice, while he was the one who maintained the daily operations of the group.

It is not impossible to invest in new technological wonders, but you have to get the nod from Prime Minister Lei, the chief steward, first.

Otherwise, all the money will be used to build technological wonders, and there will be no money to pay salaries. How can that be possible...

Prime Minister Lei did some calculations in his mind, nodded first, then shook his head.

"We can build a data center, but the scale cannot be too large. We should just try it out in the first phase - we have no money left."

Don’t forget that there is still a gap of 500 billion yuan in the High-tech Industrial Park.

Although it can be made up from subsequent shipment revenue, we cannot always bet everything on those future revenues.

Now that we have real money in our hands, we should spend it frugally and keep some money to deal with problems.

In Prime Minister Lei's opinion, Alia's steps were actually very steady.

The shipments during the last six months were designed to solve the problem of whether or not Ai Group's products were available on the market.

After occupying a certain market share, we should start to polish the question of "good or bad" instead of blindly iterating shipments.

“The data center is a critical part of software services and must be done well—and as quickly as possible!”

The user inertia dependence brought about by the first-mover advantage of Internet software services is very scary.

Just like the Windows system, the moat is the industrial software and professional software accumulated in the early days.

Users are very lazy. Once they get used to something, they are too lazy to switch ecosystems. Then the usage becomes more and more serious, and they can tolerate it as long as no major problems arise.

In a sense, tricking them into falling into the trap is the hardest part...

Prime Minister Lei took a piece of paper and calculated it, and finally handed it to Alia: "Thirteen billion, at most fifteen billion, can't exceed the budget."

Alia has a very bad habit, which is that she doesn't like to borrow money from the bank.

When she asked the bank to borrow money, it was usually for fun and she only wanted cash that could be transferred directly.

Either it is bonuses given to employees or payments to customers, but there is no intention to give banks the opportunity to inject capital and acquire shares.

For anything related to construction, she would look at the budget and get the full amount to do it.

The advantage of doing this is that it won’t be a bad ending, you can pay the full amount and have a complete conclusion.

The downside is that the pressure is too great, and only a monster like Prime Minister Lei can keep up with her thinking.

If it were any other normal professional manager, he would be cursing right now...

“Have you ever thought about where to build a data center?”

"Yes, there are currently three pre-selected places."

The first one is of course Dongjiao, an old territory, and Tianhai officials will definitely give the best treatment conditions.

But even if all the conditions are met, the cost is still too high...

The second place was Fucheng—yes, the Fucheng that had suffered a disaster before.

Someone might say, Alia, there is something wrong with you. How dare you go to Fucheng when it suffered such a terrible disaster?

In fact, it was because an engineering team had seen it there before that Ailia discovered that there was a Feng Shui treasure land in Fucheng.

There is a Dongjiang Lake in Fucheng, with stable water temperature, water quality and water level. It is a tourist attraction formed based on the cascade development of the Dongjiang Dam.

Fucheng itself knows that the place is good, so it built an industrial park, but the industrial park currently does not have any major pillar industries.

I am also quite confused. Now that I have a good place, what should I do?

If Alia uses facial recognition card, she can build a big data industrial park.

The water from Dongjiang Lake is used to cool the data center. The surrounding supporting facilities are also good. Coupled with the official discounts from the region, it should be good.

"The last place is Shuzhong."

"...Shuzhong?"

"Well, the land cost is low and clean energy is abundant. Tianhai's electricity is all sent by Shuzhong Hydropower. Wouldn't it be better for me to go to the source?"

The closer you are to Tianhai, the tighter the land costs and energy load will be.

So if we really want to talk about favors, the 60 billion drone order given to Alia by the power grid and the railway is still second. The real first gift should be that Donghuang Power Grid provided engineers and equipment to help Alia Heavy Industry build an "experimental microgrid" at cost price.

That thing is so awesome. I don't know how many colleagues in the heavy industry were envious after seeing it.

But even for such a good thing, the cost of electricity is twice that of Shuzhong.

They quoted you 0.340 per kilowatt-hour, which is simply a dimensionality reduction attack...

Electricity from the west can be transmitted to the east, and data from the east can also be calculated in the west. As long as there is a transmission trunk line for data to leave Sichuan, there will be no problem.

"At the end of last year, Nancheng Construction told me about its plan. The infrastructure in Shuzhong has a latecomer advantage. It is expected that by the end of next year, there will be more than 7 new base stations in the whole Shuzhong, and the number of active IPv6 users will account for one eighth of the country, or even more."

Although using trucks to pull hard drives on the road is the fastest way to transmit information, it is also possible to use dedicated lines if the infrastructure can keep up.

The only problem is that if the infrastructure of this dedicated line is not in place, the data center in Shuzhong can only be used as an off-site disaster recovery backup.

After all, the data throughput is too low, and the data center there can only take over cold data with low access volume and low latency requirements, such as credit card bills and file storage.

If the industrial Internet, financial technology and other high value-added hot data want to be calculated, it is necessary to ensure smooth and fast data transmission.

Don't underestimate the 150 billion. Alia can leverage so many things with this billion.

When we saw that after the beginning of this year, almost all mobile phone manufacturers started to greet their supply chain families whether they had a happy New Year, we knew that they had found the code to wealth.
