Chapter 535: investment

Liu Huaxing underestimated his movies. Although May 1st is the peak time for watching movies, the popularity of movies also has an upward curve. So although the box office in the first two days was only 80 million, the box office of the week has exceeded 500 million. According to this momentum, the final box office will exceed one billion yuan.
In view of the hot box office, the theaters also immediately decided to extend the one-month release period to three months.
At the same time, major websites have also begun to snap up the copyright of the movie, intending to sell the movie on the website on a membership basis after the three-month release period.
As for how much income he can get in the end... Liu Huaxing actually doesn't want to forget it, because it must be enough for him to implement the plan. Even he does not need to continue to invest, and it is enough to complete his plans. However, the investment still needs to be invested. Taking advantage of the money on hand and the high popularity of movies, Liu Huaxing intends to negotiate the investment by June.
After the May Day holiday, Liu Huaxing drove Yang Xiaoxiao to the company as before.
As soon as he arrived in the office, just as he was sorting out the items on the desk, Zhang Hui pushed in.
"Congratulations, A Xing." Zhang Hui smiled mysteriously, "The movie is really selling well and selling well."
"Not bad, the point is that there are too many bad movies in the same period." Liu Huaxing said with a smile.
"Then, what do you think of the gamification of the series?" Zhang Hui rubbed his hands and smiled, like a wretched uncle who was going to strike up a conversation.
Liu Huaxing couldn't help but frowned slightly: "I think... do a market research. Whether this series has the value of adapting the game, you must be more accurate than me. But if you ask me if I have an idea... …"
As he said, Liu Huaxing shrugged: "If you have the intention of this adaptation, I can come up with a complete planning plan. However, let us first complete the game at hand, and then consider the next game. It just so happens that during this time, you can also do a market survey based on this goal, and then talk to the above about this project."
"It's settled." Zhang Hui snapped his fingers and said, "I will follow up today and let them do a market survey to find out the current popularity of this series. Then assess the commercial value, and then come back to talk to you. "
In fact, Liu Huaxing knew that the result was absolutely certain. After all, the "Royal Dragon" series has completely become the current dominant craze. He Li has received many requests for cooperation from directors and wants to collaborate with him on sequels and derivative works. It's just that Liu Huaxing hasn't prepared the script now, whether it is a TV series or a sequel, he has no plans for the time being.
The key problem now is that the story line in "Dragon: Inverse Scale" is already perfect, and the enemy is very powerful. Elite killers and mercenaries from all over the world are difficult to surpass. Therefore, Liu Huaxing does not intend to continue to create a sequel to the series, but derivative works can be considered. After all, with so many protagonists, it is still possible to combine some of them to create one work.
When I am free in the future, Liu Huaxing may think about it.
After Zhang Hui went out, Chen Ye knocked on the door after a while and came in. He and Liu Chang are the few people in the studio who know that Liu Huaxing is the screenwriter of the "Dragon" series.
"You made a lot of money this time? The box office reached 500 million in one week." Chen Ye teased, "Find a place to celebrate?"
"I have already celebrated with my wife, but it's actually not a big deal." Liu Huaxing said with a smile, "but remind you, get the funds ready. Within this month I will talk to the founder of the'doghouse' platform Contact, ready to invest in their platform. I found out some time ago that Guo Zhiwen's funding gap is about 20 million."
"I see, I should be able to get around 5 million now. If you mortgage something to borrow..." Chen Ye said this, Liu Huaxing interrupted him and reminded: "Never invest in this matter. You choose to fight back and leave yourself a bit of a back. Make sure that even if you lose all the money, you can still live a life without worries."
"But I have never lost money after following you." Chen Ye said with a bit of teasing.
Liu Huaxing was silent for a while, and then suddenly talked about an unrelated matter: "I took my family to Ming'an City before and went to the casino. Then... you know, I won. It’s almost 100,000. Do you think this is luck? Yes. But you are also a college student. You should know that gambling is actually a kind of statistics."
Liu Huaxing said, spreading the reports one by one on the table: "Apart from playing with each other's psychology factors, the rest is basically the science of statistics and probability. Look at the banker's cards and then Calculate the probabilities for the idle cards. The casino also has their own calculation formula. As long as enough gamblers come, the casino will never lose money."
"Um...I've heard of this formula." Chen Ye nodded.
"Investment is the same principle, it needs to be calculated by multiple parties. The probability is high, and the bet amount, you will not lose. And the simplest reason is that when you are not a flush or blackjack , Don’t invest all your wealth in it.
Liu Huaxing reminded,
Because we are businessmen, not gamblers, businessmen pursue stable opportunities to make money, and only gamblers will fight for that one percent. The probability."
"I see." Chen Ye nodded solemnly, and Liu Huaxing sighed with satisfaction.
Chen Ye is different from him. Liu Huaxing can read the files himself. It doesn't matter if he fails, but Chen Ye can't. Liu Huaxing himself has a goal, and his goal will be reached soon, but Chen Ye is different. Chen Ye's goal may be much larger than Liu Huaxing.
Of course, Liu Huaxing will not stop Chen Ye, nor will he tell him the principle of "people should learn to be content," so he can only remind Chen Ye not to blindly "stud" without guiding the way by himself. Finally lost everything and fell into desperation. Anyhow, Chen Ye was supported by him, and he couldn't watch Chen Ye fall into the abyss like this.
"That's the reason." Liu Huaxing replied, "The game is about to start an internal beta during this time, so everyone should pay attention to catch up with the progress. Try to complete the work before the time specified above. During this time, you may need to work overtime appropriately, you remember Please calm down the people under your hands and don't let everyone feel emotional. That's it."
"Got it." Chen Ye nodded, and then prepared to go out, "Is there anything else to order?"
"Oh, help me call my wife here." Liu Huaxing added, and Chen Ye closed the door and left. After a while, Yang Xiaoxiao poked her head in and asked with a smile: "Husband, are you looking for me?"
"Well, come in." Liu Huaxing waved his hand and laughed softly. Yang Xiaoxiao sat down next to him and looked at him grinningly.
"I didn't tell you to come in and play a hooligan." Liu Huaxing scratched her little nose and smiled. "Wait, remember to tell the people in the operation department. Recently, we will start preparing game videos and internal beta accounts. This is on domestic forums. Give it up."
"Well, that's all?" Yang Xiaoxiao asked, blinking her pretty eyes.
"Also, you are so cute today." Liu Huaxing touched her brain and said with a smile. Yang Xiaoxiao said with a smug, "Of course, I am your little strawberry." After finishing speaking, Yang Xiaoxiao kissed He took a bite, turned around and took the door to leave.
Because investment matters are imminent, and Liu Huaxing’s bank card has more and more funds, he brought Yang Xiaoxiao to the bank this Saturday after May 1st, ready to inquire about financial management.
Although the box office revenue has not yet been obtained, Liu Huaxing still has nearly 40 million funds on hand, enough for him to complete his investment in the kennel. So he briefly explained his purpose to the bank manager in charge of the project.
When a company needs funds, there are usually several options. The first is a mortgage and the second is financing. If the asset collateral on hand is not enough to support large loans, the company will choose financing, that is, those financial projects announced in the bank, and seek funds from customers in the bank through cooperation with the bank.
Banks will naturally get some commissions after customers purchase financial items, but these items also usually have some risks. Liu Huaxing and the project manager asked for an interview with Guo Zhiwen in person.
After understanding Liu Huaxing's specific situation, the bank's project manager agreed to help him contact Guo Zhiwen. After all, he could get a lot of commissions with tens of millions of funds.
On Sunday, Guo Zhiwen personally selected the restaurant and booked the boxes, and then individually invited Liu Huaxing to prepare for a formal interview to show his sincerity. Liu Huaxing naturally brought Yang Xiaoxiao and two other investors, Chen Ye and Hao Qian.
The reason for not bringing Liu Chang is because on the one hand, Liu Chang does not have so much capital on hand, and on the other hand, Liu Chang is not suitable for these investments. Liu Chang is an honest person, he is more suitable to accumulate wealth in that down-to-earth way.
What's more, Liu Chang is already satisfied with the status quo. He is different from Chen Ye. He is more like Liu Huaxing in character, without much ambition. Now there are millions of people in the bank account, and the relationship with Dong Yue is also going smoothly. He is already very satisfied.
"You must be Mr. Liu Huaxing, right?" Guo Zhiwen is different from everyone else. He was not surprised by Liu Huaxing's youth. Instead, he confirmed his identity from Chen Ye and him at a glance, "Although young, you You have a calm and sophisticated temperament. It’s no wonder that you became the project director of a literary game company and the screenwriter of the "Dragon" series at a young age."
"Oh, Manager Wang has already told you about my situation." Liu Huaxing smiled, and took Yang Xiaoxiao and others to sit down at the table, breaking his fingers and saying, "If this is the case, it would be easier. You already know the details on my side. I basically have everything you need, the copyright of the game company, the way to enter the entertainment industry, and the funds you urgently need now."
With that, Liu Huaxing turned to Chen Ye and Hao Qian behind him: "We can provide 35 million in operating funds."
Liu Huaxing paid 20 million, Hao Qian paid 10 million, and Chen Ye paid 5 million.
"Now, I just want to know how many shares we can get in your company." Liu Huaxing said straightforwardly, and he didn't want to detour. It's not so much a business field now, but rather...a negotiation of a kidnapping case.
The things Guo Zhiwen needs are in their hands, and Guo Zhiwen urgently needs these things. There is no room for maneuver. It depends on the price Guo Zhiwen is willing to exchange for them.
Guo Zhiwen couldn't find a better collaborator, and Liu Huaxing was confident about this.
First of all, to do the live broadcast industry, to do the live broadcast of the game, you must obtain the live broadcast copyright of the game from the game operating company. As the Big Three in China, the art game company also manages many current popular online games. The "doghouse" live broadcast platform must purchase copyrights, and Liu Huaxing can better buy these games at a more reasonable price. The live broadcast copyright, and even the exclusive broadcast rights for future events, will benefit the competition of live broadcast platforms.
Secondly, apart from the game anchors, the other anchors, whether they are outdoor, eating, or entertainment, the ultimate goal is definitely to enter the entertainment circle. Not to mention acting in movies, at least the last variety show is a transformation. And Liu Huaxing? The screenwriter of the current popular series "The Dragon", he can write a derivative work of "The Dragon" casually, and can arrange more than a dozen actors. Many directors are willing to cooperate with him, which is the dream of entertainment anchors.
Finally, funding. At present, Guo Zhiwen's funding gap is 20 million, but Liu Huaxing has provided 35 million, which is more than all their existing funds. Who doesn't want more funds? Everyone knows how much money is easy to handle.
"Well, Mr. Liu is really a refreshing person." Guo Zhiwen nodded, "However, I am not the one who can control the shares, but we have to discuss with the other founders of the company. The conditions you provide are indeed what we urgently need. Yes, but I also want you to know that even if you don’t need this, I also hope that the company is our own company."
As the founder of the company, it is normal to have this concern. The reason is very simple. Liu Huaxing provided too much capital. If you want to count the shares, Liu Huaxing, Chen Ye, and Hao Qian occupy more than 50% of the shares. As a result, other people have too few shares. So that the company's right to speak is completely dominated by Liu Huaxing.
In this way, the dog house is not actually Guo Zhiwen's platform. Although he is the founder, the decision-making power of all matters related to the company is in the hands of their three major shareholders, and as the founder, he would naturally not allow this.
Generally speaking, the founder will hold about 30% of the shares in his own hands to have the right to speak when opinions differ, and outsiders, alone, will not hold more than 30% of the shares.
"This is easy to say, I can appropriately reduce the investment funds." Liu Huaxing said with his chin, "but I believe that other conditions besides funds are still very attractive to you? Let me listen to your price, right?"
"Um..." Guo Zhiwen groaned for a while, and then replied: "As for the capital, I hope you can give me some more time. I believe that after you join, I can get more financing from other people. By then. , I will give you a reasonable share based on the total capital. As for your other conditions... I don’t know, are you interested in joining our company’s board of directors?"
"The board of directors?" Liu Huaxing suddenly fell into contemplation: Do we have to agree to this condition?
A company has a shareholder meeting and a board of directors. The two are actually similar. Everyone has the right to vote, but the difference is that the board of directors can make decisions on the company's operations and internal management, while the shareholder meeting can only vote.
For example, the board of directors can discuss the company's overseas development, and the shareholders meeting can only choose to agree or reject the project after the board of directors has launched the project. To put it bluntly, the board of directors is the company's internal employees, and the shareholders are pure investors.
If Liu Huaxing joins as the board of directors, then the company is his own company, and it is reasonable for him to contribute to marketing. But to be honest, Liu Huaxing didn't want to be a member of the board of directors. He didn't want to worry, he just wanted to sit and wait for the money.
"With all due respect, I'm just here to invest. I don't want to intervene in your company management at all." Liu Huaxing said plainly, with a clear meaning: I just want to sit and divide the money. As for making money, you worry about it yourself.
However, given the resources Liu Huaxing has at hand, it is certainly impossible to give Guo Zhiwen for nothing. Otherwise, he has contributed money and effort, but with the same share as other shareholders, why bother? Therefore, if Guo Zhiwen wants this benefit, he can only provide Liu Huaxing with additional shares. Guo Zhiwen also understood this, so his gaze shifted to Yang Xiaoxiao.
"Is this your wife?" Guo Zhiwen asked curiously, and glanced at the ring on Yang Xiaoxiao's hand.
"Oh, this is my fiancee." Liu Huaxing took Yang Xiaoxiao's hand and introduced it, and Yang Xiaoxiao smiled and waved.
"In this case, as a show of sincerity, no matter how much the company raises in the end, I am willing to give 3% of the shares to your fiancee." Guo Zhiwen asked tentatively, "I wonder what do you think?"
To put it bluntly, the other party wanted to give him 3% of the shares for free. But in the end, their total shares will still not exceed 30%. The difference lies in how much money Guo Zhiwen will take from them.
Normally, one might think that this 3% of the shares is at best one or two million in terms of the current financing of the kennel platform. It is really not worthwhile to exchange for Liu Huaxing's network. But in Liu Huaxing's eyes, it looks different, because he knows that in the next few years, the market value of kennels will skyrocket several times, reaching as much as 2 billion.
This has nothing to do with how much they invested. Even if they only invested 1 million, the last 30% of the equity is still calculated based on the stock price at the time, so 3% is not a small amount.
"All right." Liu Huaxing thought for a while and replied, "In that case, I will wait for your news."
"Ah, great." Guo Zhiwen seemed to breathe a sigh of relief. He probably didn't expect it to go so smoothly, so he entertained him: "Come on, we must have a good drink today!"
"Don't don't don't, I came by car. You are welcome, I just cooperate normally." Liu Huaxing explained.
"Then, can I ask?" Guo Zhiwen probably couldn't help it anymore. "You have so many resources on hand. Logically speaking, there should be more choices. Any live broadcast platform will be willing to cooperate with you. Why do you Fancy me and my kennel platform?"
"Our family has a dog." Liu Huaxing said half-jokingly, and Yang Xiaoxiao also smiled: "It's true, Samoyed's string."
"Ha!" Guo Zhiwen couldn't help but laughed, "Then we are really destined, I have a Shiba Inu in my family."
"Just kidding." Liu Huaxing laughed, "There are two reasons for choosing to cooperate with you. First, I am optimistic about the live broadcast industry. After all, there is no live broadcast industry in China. If you want to make money, you have to be the first to eat crabs. When this industry emerges, everyone will follow suit, which will only make the competition more and more fierce, and then it will be difficult to make money. As for the second..."
Liu Huaxing said and shrugged: "I don't like the marketing policy of Mao Xiaoyi, the founder of Cat House. His style completely abandons live broadcast content and focuses on cutting leeks, so I chose to cooperate with you. In my opinion, It’s impractical that money is the first to ignore the live broadcast content, which is tantamount to pursuing the final score in the exam without considering the students’ practical ability."
"Is that so? Then, I'll talk to you about the future of our company. Our plan is..." Then, as they ate, Guo Zhiwen explained to him his future marketing policies and plans.
In the end, both parties successfully signed the contract. Liu Huaxing will eventually get 30% of the equity, but the amount of money invested still depends on how much Guo Zhiwen can raise after that. In short, Liu Huaxing will not get more than 30% of the equity.
At this point, after eating this meal with Guo Zhiwen, Liu Huaxing's investment was settled.
"Brother, is this really good? For such a large sum of money, I don't need to learn more about it?" Hao Qian asked a little worried on the way back from the restaurant.
Liu Huaxing can also understand her. After all, putting such a large sum of money in the hands of an outsider to let the family spend it on their own will make everyone a little uneasy.
"Don't worry, I won't let you be sold by your parents. Since I choose this one, naturally there is my reason." Liu Huaxing touched her head and soothed, "My style is like this, I always look at it. If you get it right, you don’t have to hesitate. Believe my vision, if you lose in the end, I will be responsible for the rest of your life."
"How are you responsible?" Yang Xiaoxiao asked with a threatening expression, tightening his arm.
"How can I be responsible? Raise her for the rest of my life." Liu Huaxing clicked on Yang Xiaoxiao's nose and smiled. "In the future, she will be the godmother of our children. When we are old, our children will raise her."
"Um..." Yang Xiaoxiao's beautiful eyes rolled around, "Well then."
"That said," Hao Qian chuckled, "Even if this business doesn't lose money, I'm also your child's godmother!"
