In October, Tang Jinyan presided over the quarterly board meeting as the chairman of the gaming company.
Tang Jinyan and a group of large music management companies formed a mobile game operation company. They named it Zongheng, which was very suitable for the joint operation of various companies.
Compared to the previously unknown Tang Enterprise, it highlighted the improvement of cultural literacy.
In contrast to his cultural attainments, he was shrewd and did not show his emotions on his face.
At the board meeting of Zongheng, Tang Jinyan sat at the head of the table and looked at the operation report. He was so shocked that his eyes almost popped out. However, he looked calm on the surface. "The profits are okay, much better than I expected."
It was more than just better … Excluding the testing and publicity at the end of August, and the explosive growth in September, the profits of just one month in September were enough to cover all the initial costs …
Covering the costs in one month … Tang Jinyan really wanted to vomit blood. Damn it, even his painstaking business of drug trafficking and gambling didn't have such ferocious profits, okay?
These people who played games were simply prodigals. There were people everywhere who spent millions of Korean won in the game every month. There were even quite a few who spent tens of millions of Korean won. Those who spent 100,000 a month were considered poor!
The zero Korean won party was almost non-existent. The lowest was the monthly card party … This was not just a game, it was a game of passion …
Coupled with the terrifying user base, it created such amazing results.
The development cost of this game was not high at all.
CJGAME was originally a company that focused on mobile game projects. The core of the game was ready-made. Due to the innovation of the concept, the development and design cost was not small, but it was definitely not high.
Apart from the development cost, what was the most expensive thing to spend money on?
Buying the copyrights of celebrities?
Buying songs?
Buying advertisements?
Not to ask everyone present what they did for a living. How much did these things cost?
Wasn't it just cabbage from their own fields …
For example, if someone wanted to invite a T-ara businessman to sing a song, the price was not low. However, Tang Jinyan would lie on the sofa and listen to everyone sing a song every day …
Low costs and crazy profits. If this wasn't daylight robbery, then what was?
The entertainment industry had always been a money-grabbing business. That was why there were so many entertainment companies popping up in Korea. But no matter how experienced and knowledgeable everyone was, they still couldn't help but gasp when they read this report. They had never seen a project that could break even in a month!
For the next few years, he would just be sitting there and picking up money. Even a money tree wouldn't feel so good!
Everyone was impressed by Tang Jinyan's nonchalant expression. Even the sly old fox Lee Soo-man's expression changed slightly. Even now, he could not hide the smile in his eyes. "If it weren't for Chairman Tang's ideas and strategies, our early mobile games would never have been able to achieve such results.
This Li admires President Tang's foresight to the utmost … "
Tang Jinyan was very calm. "It's all thanks to everyone's magnanimity to be able to work together.
Otherwise, even if you have some good ideas, it's useless if you can't implement them. "
Everyone shook their heads and smiled.
This kind of cooperation was indeed unimaginable in the past. If it were not for Tang Jinyan, who had the creativity and means to break the conventional thinking, as well as a leader who was strong, had a strong background, and was not greedy, they would not have been able to achieve this.
Tang Jinyan was indeed the one who took the most credit. No matter how arrogant they were, they would not be able to deny this. These black-hearted entertainment businessmen were temporarily convinced that he was in charge of Zongheng Entertainment.
Of course, no one could guarantee what would happen in the future.
Tang Jinyan put down the report and said, "The profits of this game may make people happy, but I have to remind everyone of something …"
As he spoke, he looked around. Seeing that these famous people in the entertainment industry were listening quietly, Tang Jinyan smiled and continued, "Maybe I'm just showing off in front of an expert. Everyone here is a veteran. You should know that this game is not worth praising purely from the perspective of playability. The root of its success lies in the combination of entertainment and the players' feelings towards their idols. Therefore, the root of the success lies in the development of your idols.
On the other hand, the popularity of the game should be used to promote the development of your idols. Everyone's attention should not be attracted by the profits of the game. You have to recognize the essence of the game. "
Many people were stunned by his words.
Seeing the terrifying profits of the game, a few people even felt that they should focus on the game … Tang Jinyan's reminder was definitely a wake-up call.
Yang Xianshuo's eyes flashed with admiration. It was rare for a young man to be so calm in the face of profits. No wonder he could achieve more than everyone else. "I completely agree with President Tang's point of view."
Lee Soo-man also smiled. "President Tang's reminder is right."
Tang Jinyan shook his report. "Based on this, the direction of our game's update is not actually a change in the game's content, but the addition of various new idol modules.
And the model is to purchase the idol's copyright, no longer a cooperative investment model. "
Lee Soo-man revealed a meaningful smile.
Previously, JYP and CUBE were anxious to join the game, which highlighted that the general trend was on the game's side. It was no longer the situation where Tang Jinyan needed to make connections everywhere. Now, it was the companies that did not participate that wanted to participate, and those that did not participate would fall behind. The game company only needed to pay a very low price to obtain the artist's copyright.
At a certain stage of development, even if I don't buy your copyright, you would still ask to give it to me …
After participating, the companies would still have to argue about the proportion of their idol's modules in the game. Why did their idols have so few stories and missions in the game?
Their idols even had commercial performances?
This would affect the popularity of their idols in the game, and then faithfully feed back to reality.
The game company had such a line of profit in their hands, and it had indeed begun to affect the entertainment industry in reality, or at least the idol industry.
Tang Jinyan's original ambition had already bared its fangs at this point.
Tang Jinyan's foresight lay in the fact that he knew that this kind of control was not something that could be done by himself or by a few companies. He pulled the Ministry of Culture, Tourism, and Tourism in a timely manner. Even the CEO, Xie Yuanzhong, was from the Ministry of Culture, Tourism, and Tourism.
Under the premise of the Ministry of Culture, Tourism, and Tourism's support, controlling the board of directors meant controlling the game, and thus exerting influence on the entire entertainment industry.
At the very least, those who had a seat on the board of directors were now clearly more powerful than those who did not have a seat in the industry.
Just like the Five Hooligans of the United Nations, although they could not control the actual situation of each country, they were very useful in many cases.
What an amazing foresight and plan …
However, although they were all part of the Five Hooligans of the United Nations, their positions were different depending on the country's strength. It was obvious that Tang Jinyan was the United States at this time, a terrifying monster.
Of course, Lee Soo-man would not reject Tang Jinyan's foresight. Lee Soo-man was confident that the quarrel between the board of directors would not become Tang Jinyan's sole decision.
Tang Jinyan took in the expressions of all the people in the room and smiled slightly.
He never intended to be the sole decision here. It was not realistic at all. He had already gotten what he wanted.
Gradually, he was rooted in the network all over the world. When his influence penetrated every corner of Korea, no matter who wanted to touch him, they had to consider whether the impact would be unbearable.
Entertainment was just a piece of the puzzle. It was the same for construction and shipping.
After another half an hour of discussion on the operation matters, Tang Jinyan called Lee Soo-man after the meeting ended. "Director Li, please wait a moment."
Lee Soo-man looked at him with a smile. "What can I do for you, President Tang?"
"Here's the thing. I plan to make a period drama and I want to use Youli.
Youli said that I need the company's approval. "
Tang Jinyan was a little embarrassed. "Originally, I said that I would find her a role in a movie, but it seems that there is no suitable role for her in the new movie we are planning to make …"
Lee Soo-man's mouth twitched. He did not know that Quan Youli had such a good thing falling into her lap. She could not find a suitable role in a movie, so she wanted to make a TV series. He was embarrassed and embarrassed. Countless artists who had begged him to get a role would cry if they heard this.
He sighed. "In principle, as long as it doesn't damage the image and the schedule is suitable, the company has no reason to disagree."
"Of course, the image is good. I'm just afraid that it will be unfavorable if it flops."
Tang Jinyan grinned. "Because I'm shooting this for the girls. I don't care about myself, but Youli is not under my management, so I have to ask for your opinion."
'For the girls to play with … play with …' Lee Soo-man's cheeks twitched. "Even President Tang doesn't care if it flops. Why would I, Lee Soo-man, be afraid?
As for the schedule, I will arrange it when the time comes. "
"Then it's a deal."
