Hong Kong's new giants

After speaking, he couldn't help being proud!

New Times Group is the real global enterprise.

"Okay, just follow this plan."

"Okay, boss!"

After the New Era Group pays dividends, it still maintains a cash flow of 1160 billion Hong Kong dollars in its account, which is very competitive.

In the next five years, the cash flow of New Era Group will grow exponentially, becoming a full-fledged cash cow giant.

……

When New Era Group released its annual financial report and dividend plan, the citizens of Xiangjiang were shocked.

"Isn't it that Hong Kong's economy was not good last year? Why did New Times Group pay 220 billion Hong Kong dollars in dividends? I'm afraid that apart from Changshi, there is no company in Hong Kong whose annual income can reach other people's dividends, right?"

"New Era Group is a global enterprise with business all over the world. And it has always been ahead of HSBC Group, which is the most powerful thing."

The citizens were amazed at the huge dividends and high annual net profit of New Era Group.

There are also media who describe New Era Group as "making money from all over the world to support the people of Xiangjiang". Some media have also found through investigation that more than 10 people in Xiangjiang work for Lin Zuhui.You know, the number of employed people in Hong Kong is only 320 million.

The important thing is that the overall income of citizens who can work for Lin Zuhui must be extremely high.

"The number of employed people in Cyberport has exceeded 1, and Hong Kong's technology industry is on the rise!"

"The number of employed people in the cultural industry continues to rise, and it is truly one of the three pillar industries."

"Xiangjiang shipping has surpassed Singapore and continues to become a global shipping powerhouse."

After one piece of news was disseminated to the citizens, everyone discovered how much influence Lin Zuhui had in Xiangjiang.

If Li Chaoren is a world businessman and the pride of the Chinese, then what is Lin Zuhui?

Industries with high added value, such as technology and culture, all come from the media group and lead the development of the entire Xiangjiang.

Some media directly commented that without Lin Zuhui, there would be no cultural and technological industries in Xiangjiang, and the entire GDP would be reduced by about 20%.

For a while, Lin Zuhui became the object of discussion among Xiangjiang citizens after dinner.Of course, this has become commonplace, after all, the technology and cultural industries have been on the rise for nearly ten years.

……

Not long after New Era Group released its annual financial report, the media group also released its annual financial report, which shocked the entire Xiangjiang River for a while, and even overseas people paid attention.

The media group's net profit in 2003 was as high as 600 billion Hong Kong dollars, of which non-recurring profits were 465 billion Hong Kong dollars (the sale of ICQ), and normal profits were 135 billion Hong Kong dollars.

In terms of dividends, the media group is relatively stingy, and only pays out 30 billion Hong Kong dollars in dividends; after all, more than 2003 billion of the profits in 200 are Microsoft shares.

Public outcry!

Unlike other companies in Xiangjiang, the media group is a pillar enterprise and leader of Xiangjiang's technology and cultural industries, so its status is particularly high.

Today, the media group has handed over such a 'report card', which is enough to boost the confidence of the entire Xiangjiang economy.

"You can be dissatisfied with Xiangjiang's real estate hegemony, but you must not be dissatisfied with Mr. Lin Zuhui!"

"Without Mr. Lin Zuhui, Xiangjiang's economy would never be so developed."

"Well, from today, I'm no longer jealous of Mr. Lin Zuhui's luxurious life, that's what he deserves."

All of a sudden, praises for Lin Zuhui flooded in.

……

Cyberport.

Lin Zuhui came to the ninth city and listened to the work report of the president Gao Kelin.

"Global online game revenue is growing gratifyingly. Our Ninth City has a large number of high-quality online games, and we are working hard to open more and more servers overseas...This year, the revenue is expected to increase by at least 30%." Gao Kelin said confidently.

Lin Zuhui nodded, he was not surprised by this growth rate.

If he remembers correctly, "Dungeon and Fighter" and "Cross Fire" are more profitable online games than "World of Warcraft". Of course, this data may not be true, and it may also be the ranking of a certain region or country.And "Adventure Island" can also be ranked among the top ten most profitable online games. In this way, The Ninth City is equivalent to holding three of the world's most profitable online games.

"How many full-time employees does Ninth City currently have?" Lin Zuhui asked.

"There are about 3900 full-time employees, and Xiangjiang has about 3300 local employees." Gao Kelin replied.

There are less than 4000 employees, which is not a lot. It can only be said that it is enough for now.Once an online game comes out, it doesn't mean that the team can be disbanded. On the contrary, the team has to be strengthened, because the update of the version is very important, otherwise old players will be lost, and new players will not be attracted.

"Okay! The Ninth City can be said to have more than ten gold mines, but it cannot be said that we can make money lying down. These gold mines need to be mined properly. That is to say, the subsequent versions of these games must keep up. Bugs and deficiencies must be updated in a timely manner; in addition, overseas operations and agents must also be paid attention to.”

"I remember!"

"How is the market performance of "Dungeon and Fighter"?"

"It is very popular among gamers in Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan. The sense of competition has won rave reviews from everyone, which is very attractive."

Lin Zuhui nodded with a smile and said, "Sure enough, there must be competitive elements in order to be more perfect."

"Dungeon and Warriors" has inherited a large number of features of many home consoles and arcade 2D fighting games, and centered on task-guided character growth, combined with dungeons, PVP, and PVE as supplements, and has the same equipment and level changes as other online games .

In short, its success is justified. It is not in the same genre as "Legend of Hot Blood", "Ragnarok", and "Miracle MU". "Dungeon and Warriors" belongs to the action role-playing ARPG fighting online game.

now.

The ninth city has "Legend of Hot Blood", "Ragnarok", "Miracle MU", "Adventure Island", "Bubble Hall", "Martin Run", "Audition", "Cross Fire", "Underground "City and Warriors" and "Street Basketball" are ten best-selling games developed in Korea in the previous life; many original online games have also emerged. They also rely on the development of Xiangjiang's game industry to achieve high-quality games and are very popular overseas.

With the current copyright of the game, The Ninth City can rest easy. Of course, it will not stop. It just means that Lin Zuhui will no longer interfere.

……

Seoul, Neople Corporation.

As the first company to develop Neople, the most representative and successful online game in Korea, it has encountered big troubles in recent years.

First of all, Xiangjiang Ninth City released the same type of online games shortly after the development of many projects, which led to project adjustments or even interruptions, and the company suffered a lot of losses;

Secondly, the games developed by Neople are not popular overseas. Although they are represented by overseas companies, the agency fee is very low soon, and the follow-up share is also very unsatisfactory.After all, Xiangjiang Games occupies a large part of the online game market in overseas countries, especially in the huge mainland market. Xiangjiang Games occupies about 80% of the market, and the remaining 10% are original games from the Mainland. Korean games only have a few. to 10% of the market.

In the end, even the Korean local game market is being swallowed by Xiangjiang Games.It is very puzzling. Generally speaking, it is difficult for foreign Internet to gain a firm foothold in Korea, but Xiangjiang's games are very popular among Koreans (nonsense, they were developed by Koreans in their previous lives).

"President, "Adventure Island", "Audition", and "Bubble Hall" represented by Modern Entertainment have more and more players in Korea, and their share is also increasing. If we don't produce high-quality games, we can only watch Watching the market lose to Xiangjiang Games, not to mention the overseas market.”

Jin Chengzai said unhappily: "Then what do you say?"

The executive immediately said: "Abolish those games that are almost homogeneous, and re-establish the project. It is precisely because the company insisted on continuing to develop games that are homogeneous with Xiangjiang, that caused several products to fail. If we re-establish the project, then With the development of the Korean game industry, I believe we can come up with better products."

Jin Chengzai suddenly felt dizzy, and the executives had already directly criticized him for insisting, but he didn't dare to refute, because many people in the company were already questioning him.

"But the company's current financial situation is all supported by several games of "Paradise"... Well, to establish a few more projects, this is the path we must take."

Neople is also quite powerful. With the game "Paradise", it can earn nearly 2500 million U.S. dollars in revenue every year; otherwise, if it failed several products, it would have gone bankrupt long ago.

This also proves in disguise that online games are real money.

……

the other side.

Lin Zuhui was sitting in the office, a little absent-minded, because he had already completed the layout of the game industry and could no longer intervene.

Blizzard's "World of Warcraft" has been tested in Europe and the United States. If there are no accidents, Activision Blizzard will sell 100 billion U.S. dollars in five years. There is no problem at all. (In the previous life, Blizzard's profit in 2008 was already 13 billion US dollars)

So at that time, Lin Zuhui will definitely release the rumors and sell Activision Blizzard.

After all, he is also worried that it will fall into his hands. He dare not think about more than 600 billion US dollars. Yankees are not vegetarians.

As for the mere 100 billion US dollars, Lin Zuhui believes that the problem is not big.

At present, Activision Blizzard is developing better than in the previous life, especially Activision, which has also developed many high-quality games, and its value is also very high.

And Lin Zuhui is very kind to the employees and management of these two companies, he adopts no management interference, high salary and high year-end bonus; because of this, Activision Blizzard was also selected as the happiest company in the United States.

By doing this, he naturally hopes to increase his influence, distribute a lot of profits to the management and employees every year, and gain people's hearts.And Lin Zuhui can also get a lot of dividends every year. The important thing is that he is looking at the funds from the sale.

Activision Blizzard can bring him about $110 billion in revenue, and The Ninth City is obviously more, possibly tens of billions of dollars, of course, in the long-term.

Money is so damn easy to earn.

Chapter 744 [Lin Lin Lin Lin]

North Point, Media Building.

Lin Zuhui sat in the office, listening to the work reports of his subordinates.

The media group has a total of four major business segments - software/games, TV broadcasting, entertainment/movies, news/animation. There are four office areas for the four major businesses, which are located in Cyberport, Tseung Kwan O ATV Center, Kowloon Broadcasting Road YG/Dream Factory building, North Point News Building.

Generally speaking, Lin Zuhui doesn't go to the YG/Dreamworks building and ATV Center very much now, and almost always works in the media building as a 'media group'.

In fact, Lin Zuhui's management of the media group has become less and less, and he will only intervene through a few core executives.

There are two reasons:

First, reduce the workload and devote more energy to enjoying life;

Second, to avoid suspicion, the greater the influence, the more he has to avoid suspicion, the more he has to hide behind the scenes, especially in a business like media communication.

"Currently, the strategy of the second-generation group has achieved great success. Groups such as TVXQ, bigbang, Girls' Generation, Wonder Girls, etc. have achieved the achievements of their predecessors overseas... Girls' Generation has launched an Asian tour 'concert', which will be held in Xiangjiang, Magic City, Fourteen cities including Beijing, Taipei, Tokyo, Osaka, Nagoya, and Singapore..."

Hearing Lin Zuhui's blood boiled, but he hid it in his heart, because it all brought back memories of his previous life.

"Very good, the development of HK-POP is so good, it has driven the overall economy of Xiangjiang. By the way, you can think about organizing a group to hold concerts overseas, which will be more conducive to the promotion of HK-POP."

Yu Xiaoming nodded and said, "Yes. At present, the YG family concerts are very successful every year. If we add more such performances, it will indeed have better results."

Next, the two also exchanged the details of overseas promotion and development. Overall, the promotion of HK-POP overseas is very meticulous, especially the early use of the Internet to establish various unofficial fan groups.

"How is the development of K-POP in South Korea? Is it threatening our HK-POP status?"

"We are always one step ahead and always bring forth new ones, so HK-POP has always maintained an absolute advantage. What's more, we are the first to create this model, and imitators will never have a good reputation. Of course, Korean K-POP It is also shameless plagiarism, and relying on the South Korean government to use some diplomatic means, it also has a certain market overseas."

Lin Zuhui nodded, not surprisingly, South Korea is very shameless to copy, and their government always bundles the Hallyu, so the development is very advantageous.

Yu Xiaoming added: "But boss, don't worry! Hong Kong Stream has long been popular in Asia. From TV dramas and movies to games, entertainment, and variety shows, we are a big system... No matter how Korean Wave plagiarizes, the Hong Kong Stream that dominates the market first, They all have absolute advantages, not to mention that the reputation of Korean Wave among overseas people is not good. Many people on the Internet call them plagiarism and imitators... If you compare the overseas market to "ten", our Hong Kong Stream has more than [-]% of it alone. The Korean wave is at most [-] to [-] percent."

now it's right!

If fans of Hong Kong Stream and Korean Wave are put together, the two sides will definitely quarrel. As long as the fans of Hong Kong Stream are not stupid, they will come up with iron-proof evidence-Korean Wave is plagiarized, then it will definitely win.

At the same time, the rise of Hong Kong Stream variety shows and Hong Kong Stream games has taken advantage of the trend to improve the entire industry chain.For example, "Audition" has developed in various countries. Although it will also purchase local music copyrights, Hong Kong stream music still occupies an important share; many fans.

Therefore, if the Korean Wave wants to pose a threat to the Hong Kong Current, it will not be able to handle it in less than ten years.

As for how to develop ten years later, Lin Zuhui no longer has to worry about it, because his mission has been completed.

Then, Lin Zuhui said: "Internet video is coming soon. Through the dissemination of video, Hong Kong Stream will definitely attract more global fans. Copyright or something is no longer an important thing, so you should consider entering some video sharing sites and become The government releases some news about its banner to promote itself... The spread of the Internet is far larger and more influential than that of TV... After we do these things, we might as well give an inspiration to the entire industry in Hong Kong."

Yu Xiaoming was very excited. He felt that the boss had always been at the forefront of the times and always had an extremely long-term vision.

"Okay, I must ask the public relations department to think about and implement this kind of promotion."

"Also. Increase the proportion of trainees in the mainland, and the same goes for debuts."

"No problem, I'll do it right away!"

The Hong Kong Wave is not the Korean Wave. If an idol member from the mainland dares to tear up the contract and flee to the mainland to make a lot of money, YG Entertainment has plenty of ways to block him.The media group has worked in the mainland for so many years. From CCTV to local TV stations, they have a deep cooperative relationship. In entertainment companies, brokerage companies, theaters, etc., the media group has a deep position in the mainland, isn't it? Comparable to previous Korean entertainment companies.It can be said that if a media group goes to court in the Mainland, the Mainland officials will take care of it.

And Lin Zuhui increased the proportion of mainland trainees and idols, hoping that everyone can get closer and not go further and further away.Lin Zuhui has been doing such subtle things.

It is true that he will not interfere with press freedom or participate in politics, but this does not prevent him from doing what he can.

After Yu Xiaoming left, Lin Zuhui was thinking about the plan of the 'Three Generations', when will it come out?

The so-called "Three Generations Group" is just playing around the edges, in fact, it is taking the sexy route.

Although the second-generation group also shows their thighs, they focus on girls, youth, innocence, vitality and other elements, which have nothing to do with sexiness. The men's group focuses on flowery boys, RAP, hip-hop, explosive and other elements.

Although the third generation of the girl group was eventually replaced by the fourth generation (the fourth generation and the second generation belong to the similar type), it is also a process that has to go.Missa, AOA, apink, girlsday, exid, and sistar in Korea in the previous life all belonged to the third generation. The more obvious evidence is the full release of their thigh dance. There is this obvious difference.Of course, these groups are regular groups of big companies, and there are also some third-generation groups of small brokerage companies, which are completely sidelined. Black silk, dancing postures, etc. are full of sexy and seductive elements everywhere.

If YG Entertainment wants to develop a third-generation group, it must be more formal. Although it is also a sexy line, it should not be too edgy.However, Lin Zuhui believes that with so many small and medium-sized brokerage companies in Xiangjiang, they will definitely try.

"boss"

"Well, sit"

Zhao Zhenqiang from ATV Group came to Lin Zuhui's office.

Zhao Zhenqiang has been firmly seated as the program director of ATV, not because of his ability, but because of Lin Zuhui's trust. The main reason is that Lin Zuhui needs someone to convey his ideas, and he must also guarantee loyalty.

Of course, Zhao Zhenqiang's own abilities are also good. Not only can he digest Lin Zuhui's words, but he can also display more and greater abilities.

Zhao Zhenqiang briefly reported on the work of ATV Group, he knew that the boss didn't like to hear too much nonsense.

"In general, the rise of Hong Kong variety shows has quickly made up for the fading enthusiasm for Hong Kong movies; and although Hong Kong movies have caused some fatigue overseas, there are still two or three popular Hong Kong dramas every year, such as Southeast Asia. For example, according to Internet surveys, among the top ten dramas every year, we Xiangjiang occupy about 5 of them."
