Losing Money to Be a Tycoon

Monday, May 28.

Pei Qian came to the company early and checked the work briefs sent by various departments last week.

The first to open is the newsletter of Outu Technology.

After taking a second glance, Pei Qian immediately closed it with a look of impossibility.

"Sure enough, drying racks are selling out..."

When Pei Qian had nothing to do, he often used high-intensity to visit the website of Ali Island, and naturally saw the video posted by Lin Jiaqiang.

Seeing this video, Pei Qian knew that something was wrong!

But there is still a trace of luck in his heart.

What if one is hot, but the promotion of smart fitness clothes racks is not obvious?

After reading the newsletter of Outu Technology, Pei Qian realized that he really thought too much.

The new G1 mobile phones and smart fitness clothes racks have all sold out, and so far they have all been sold out intermittently.

The foundry is rushing to produce. The foundry of the smart fitness clothes rack has even opened a new production line after getting a larger order. It can be said that it is fully stocking.

Pei Qian just glanced at the stock number of the smart fitness clothes rack, and felt a little dizzy.

In the earliest days, he asked Changyou to prepare goods through gritted teeth, and only 10,000 units were prepared.

But now, 10,000 units have all been sold out, and another order for 10,000 units has been sent!

Although the numbers are the same, the original 10,000 units have been in stock for a long time. I originally planned to sell it for a year and a half, but I didn't expect it to be able to withstand it so soon!

As for the second batch of 10,000 units, I am afraid that it will not last long.

The most frightening thing is that there are still some large orders in it. A gym called "Star Bird Fitness" directly ordered more than one hundred sets, and will buy more in the future!

The things of Outu Technology are expensive to sell, but once the turnover is up, the money is almost like running water.

The profit of the smart fitness drying rack is not high. In addition to the raw material costs that cannot be reduced due to the high quality of the equipment itself, logistics, warehousing, home delivery, and moving services are also a large cost.

Regardless of the cost of the upwind logistics, the profit of each smart fitness drying rack is only about 200 yuan.

But after the number went up, 10,000 units were also 2 million.

Although in terms of Tenda's current profitability, 2 million yuan can't even be seen in a cash-burning activity, but don't forget that there are in-app purchases for "Fitness Fight"!

So far, "Fitness Fight" has attracted a large number of players. As a mobile game, the monthly turnover on the official platform alone has reached 30 million.

Compared with other games of the same income level, the number of active people in "Fitness Fight" is even two or three times that of those games, and the number of registered people is more than ten times that of those games!

In other words, the popularity of this game is indeed very high. Many players will register for an account even if they don't have the equipment and can't stick to it.

Because the total number of players is large, even if a lot of people are lost, there are still a lot of people left.

There are many players left, and many players recharge.

Although the recharge system of "Fitness Fight" is too conscientious and reduces income to a certain extent, the recharge system that can be refunded at will has stimulated the desire of many players to recharge, so the income is still good.

Taking into account the official platform's high share of Tenda, this game can earn Tenda nearly 20 million in one month.

Even more frightening is that the official platform is not the only channel for "Fitness Fight".

When Tenda was in crisis, Zhou Muyan stepped forward to contact some game distributors, and let Tenda’s games on some small platforms.

Although these platforms are small and the share is not high, they win in large numbers.

Coupled with the recommendation of major channels such as the Shenhua Mobile App Store, the net income of "Fitness Campaign" in the first month can be doubled!

Of course, the high income in the early stage is the light of the special recharge mode.

Because refunds can be made at will, the players have no psychological burden at all, so they are more aggressive than the others.

Even if there are a lot of refunds, there will eventually be a lot of orders reserved.

In the next few months, when players have all the items they want, the desire to recharge will naturally plummet, and the income of the game will naturally drop.

but……

Obviously, the game will continue to update various good-looking props, scenes, special effects and even characters for "Fitness Fight", and subsequent expansion packs will be launched continuously.

Pei Qian didn't look at it.

It's so desperate!

Who could have imagined that Pei Qian, who counted money until he wanted to vomit, was still dreaming about selling a building a week ago.

It turns out that this is purely for ass.

After turning off the briefing of Outu Technology, Pei Qian read the briefings of several other departments.

On the whole, all departments are developing steadily and orderly.

Pei Qian's mood calmed down a little bit, after all, no bad news is the best news.

As long as these departments don't make a sudden profit, everyone is still good friends.

While watching the briefing, someone knocked on the door outside.

Pei Qian looked up and saw Huang Sibo from Feihuang Studio.

"President Pei! I have something to ask for advice."

"We have been discussing the copyright of the "Mission and Choice" with the Ali Island website under Lin's matchmaking."

"The initial intentions have been communicated almost. I am here this time to let you give an idea. Is it a buyout or a share this time?"

Pei Qian couldn't help but his face sank.

Sure enough, it's here!

It is a blessing, not a curse, but a curse cannot be avoided.

On the day when the box office of the movie "Mission and Choice" broke out, Pei Qian knew that the copyright of the movie would definitely be sold to video sites at a high price in the future. It was nothing more than a question of early or late.

Now, this day has come.

Fortunately, Pei Qian has made full mental preparations.

He considered it briefly, and got a little bit tangled.

According to common sense, he should have no brain choice to divide.

Because a buyout is a direct call of a large sum of money, it will cause great trouble in settlement.

And the money divided is slowly coming, evenly spread over each month, the pressure will not be so great.

However, Pei Qian has already suffered a loss in "A Better Tomorrow".

That's how he thought at the time, so he divided the "Better Tomorrow" into a share. As a result, he never expected that the movie was so popular on the website of Elli Island. In the end, the profit from the share far exceeded the buyout!

This is very stiff.

There is another point to consider, that is, the impact of key extension.

The extension of the key means that the movie will be shown in the cinema for a longer period of time. Although it can increase the box office, the audience's demand for watching movies will be further reduced. After the video website, there are fewer people who follow, and the website is willing to pay the price It's even lower.

"Better Tomorrow" was not postponed at that time. After the movie was released, the audience's enthusiasm was still very high. There were many people watching it, and it was naturally divided.

However, "Mission and Choice" was postponed for two months. In this way, most of the audience's enthusiasm for watching movies was satisfied. Many people even used the second or third brush, and the price that the website is willing to offer should also be Lower it.

When he thought that he would earn more by splitting, Pei Qian could only choose long-term pain rather than short-term pain.

"Buy it out." Pei Qian made a very difficult decision.

Huang Sibo nodded: "All right, President Pei, then buy it out."

He didn't ask much.

President Pei has been thinking for so long, obviously after careful consideration, after weighing all the interests for a long time, he has made the most correct choice.

What is there to question?

Huang Sibo turned to leave.

After making up his mind, Pei Qian felt a lot more relaxed.

He picked up the teacup and drank water, and asked casually, "How much will it cost for the purchase this time?"

Huang Sibo replied: "Oh, if nothing else, it should be around 55 million."

"How much?" Pei Qian almost spouted a sip of tea, completely unable to believe his ears.

Huang Sibo repeated it again: "55 million, Mr. Pei, are you... too few?"

Pei Qian: "..."

Crazy, crazy!

Fortunately, when asked about this specific number, Pei Qian couldn't calm down completely.

He asked very confused: "I remember the price offered by the website of Elliott at the time of "Better Tomorrow" was only 18 million, right?"

"Why has it risen so much?!"

Huang Sibo smiled: "Oh, Mr. Pei, you may not have paid attention to these, so you don't know much."

"At that time, 18 million, that was the market price more than a year ago!"

"At the time of "Better Tomorrow", a film with a box office of more than 100 million and the participation of celebrity actors, the copyright purchase fee started at 10 million, and the maximum was not more than 50 million."

""Mission and Choice" broke the box office record of domestic movies, and was regarded by many as a milestone in domestic heavy industry movies. It is also very hopeful that this movie will hit a real actor award... The copyright fee is only the top level. , Obviously it is not enough."

"Also, Ellie Island is not just buying the film rights this time. There is a plan to do a special topic and publicity to bring interest to the website."

"To gather all the boutique videos related to "Mission and Choice" on the entire Elli Island website, to form a monopoly on similar content to a certain extent, for them, how cost-effective!"

"Therefore, although 55 million yuan is relatively expensive, it can only be said to be a normal price."

"Except for the Alidao website, basically no other video website can offer this price. And I think that after all, the Alidao website has a lot of traffic and it will help us to a certain extent, so I accepted this price. "

Pei Qian was silent.

I originally thought that long-term pain is not as good as short-term pain, but this short-term pain is too painful!

How can this fifty million be spent!

But when he thought that if he was divided, he might earn more than fifty million, so Pei Qian didn't say anything.

It's all a cut, instead of entangled in this, it is better to think about how to spend the money earlier.

After Huang Sibo left, Pei Qian thought for a long time and dialed Liang Qingfan's phone.

Although Pei Qian has already planned a new plan to burn money, he originally planned to keep it until Xia Ci on June 26 next month, and he can't do it this month.

After thinking about it, let's use the old stupid way.

Buy a property!

The basic value of the system capital for this cycle is 50 million, and the current fixed assets of Tenda are about 170 million, mainly concentrated in the several buildings of the sloth apartment.

It is also fortunate that the physical industries such as Moyu Internet Cafe, Defiant Station, and managed gyms, including the new experience store, are rented, so that this fixed asset is not exceeded.

According to the conversion method of the system, fixed assets will be counted as system funds after dividing by 10.

In other words, even if Pei Qian loses all the system funds at present, the system funds at the time of settlement will still be calculated at 17 million, and Pei Qian can only convert the amount of 33 million.

Pei Qian thought about it, and it seemed that it was not a bad idea to lower this quota.

Even if you buy another 120 million building, there is still 20 million available for system funds. It is not a problem to earn one hundred thousand or one million.

At least the tens of millions of selling copyrights should be burned, which is not a big problem.

Therefore, Pei Qian called Liang Qingfan and told him to look for a new building in advance.

Be optimistic in advance so that you can spend it immediately after the money is in place.

On the other side of the phone, Liang Qingfan thought about it for a while and asked, "Mr. Pei, should I continue to buy residential buildings? For shops, can I consider it?"

Pei Qian was stunned for a moment: "Shop?"

"Which area of ​​the shop?"

Liang Qingfan said: "Uh...in a relatively biased area, the appreciation potential cannot be guaranteed, but it should be okay."

Pei Qian felt a little relieved.

If it is the kind of shop in the city center, it will definitely make a lot of money.

Because the most important thing about a store is location, and the difference in passenger flow between a good location and a poor location is more than ten times, and it directly determines the appreciation potential of the store.

If it is in a relatively off-site location, it is fine.

Although there is potential for appreciation, even if it rises a little, it should be incomparable to those prosperous shops.

Whether buying a residential building or a shop, whether it is in a prime location or a remote location, Pei Qianke has made money.

That being the case, buying some shops in a slightly off-site location will make the fixed asset allocation in your hands more diversified, which can also reduce the risk of sudden big profits.

Thinking of this, Pei Qian nodded: "Okay, you can watch and buy. If you don't have enough money, tell me."
