The leisurely life of the rich start

Next, Yin Zhiliang made a performance report on behalf of the VR company.

VR company's performance this year is also good. While the total revenue exceeded 30 billion, the profit also exceeded the 3 million mark.

Zhang Da was sitting in his seat, while encouraging his employees, he was seriously thinking about a question:

If this trend continues, will the cash flow in the group account be too much?

Chapter 493 Food Variety Show

After returning to Jinling, Zhang Da found that his worries had become a reality.

At the annual meeting of the Mingda Group headquarters, Zhang Xiang proudly reported the performance of the investment head office this year:

"Mr. Zhang, the total revenue of Mingda Investment Company this year is 1200.69 billion yuan, and the net profit is 1087.19 billion yuan."

After the heads of various departments reported their performance one after another, Zhang Da said:

"Thank you for your hard work this year. This year is another bumper year for the group! Everyone should have noticed that the current operating conditions of the group are good and there is a lot of capital flow. Therefore, I am going to expand the business of the group. Feel free to speak up if you have any suggestions!"

Hearing Zhang Da's words, Tang Haitao and Zhang Xiang nodded inwardly at the same time.

In their view, Zhang Da's business expansion has always been quite stable.

Unlike some groups that blindly expand and then cut off a series of unprofitable projects, Mingda Group under Zhang Da has always planned before moving.

This may be the reason why Mingda Group's newly established projects in recent years have been profitable.

"Mr. Zhang, among the several major projects that the group is currently focusing on, the expansion speed of Netflix Huaguo is undoubtedly the fastest." Tang Haitao suggested, "I think, since the film and television company and artist department were established last year, can we expand next year?" Going forward, how about trying to produce a variety show, or investing in some film and television projects?"

Zhang Da nodded and asked Xu Lin, "Director Xu Lin, what do you think?"

"Mr. Zhang, Mr. Tang, in terms of film and television dramas, we plan to focus on self-produced dramas next year. The second phase of the self-produced drama project was very successful, and the film and television company has also accumulated a lot of experience. The future rate of return is relatively guaranteed.

We have very little experience in film, and I am currently preparing his new film with director Chen Kaiqi from the artist department. I will accumulate some experience first, and then consider increasing investment in the future. "Xu Lin said, "As for variety shows, we haven't paid attention to them yet. I will pay attention to the information after the meeting. "

"Yes, this is safer." Zhang Da nodded and said, "Does anyone else have any suggestions?"

Although he said so, when Tang Haitao mentioned the word "variety show", he remembered the vlog he and Shao Yu filmed with Shao Yu in order to improve the system achievements.

The videos of those amateur chefs cooking in those days attracted many people to watch.

If we invite some famous chefs to shoot a more professional food variety show, I wonder if we can get good results.

With Zhang Da's current contacts, it is not difficult to invite well-known chefs at home and abroad.

Moreover, he himself is very interested in variety shows of this kind.

"Mr. Zhang, I know a biotechnology company called Zhiguang Technology, which is currently financing externally." Zhang Xiang's words brought Zhang Da back to reality, "The two main businesses of this company are biological gene chains and pharmaceuticals. Research and development, they are currently developing drugs that can cure type [-] diabetes.

This company has good experience and development prospects. If you agree, we can try to acquire this company. "

Zhang Da said: "I think the vice president, please sort out the detailed information of this company, and then we will hold an evaluation meeting."

Zhang Xiang replied: "Okay, Mr. Zhang!"

At the same time, Zhang Da has used the system's function of editing tasks to evaluate this company.

The meager task rewards given by the system also let him understand that the company's development prospects are indeed very good.

After giving the evaluation meeting the green light in his heart, Zhang Da then asked, "Is there any more?"

Just two projects may not be enough to satisfy the Group's current cash flow.

Zhang Xiang said: "Mr. Zhang, I only noticed this project for the time being."

"Mr. Zhang, I haven't paid attention to other promising projects." Tang Haitao also said, "I'm sorry, but we failed your expectations."

"Where is it? Everyone has done their job very well, I am very satisfied." Zhang Da said with a smile, "This time is actually a temporary idea of ​​mine, and I already feel very good to hear about two projects from you.

Next, please continue to pay attention to the projects that are suitable for group investment! "

Everyone stood up together and said, "Understood, Mr. Zhang!"

After the meeting, Zhang Da tested the possibility of shooting a food variety show in the system.

The results obtained also satisfied him.

Although this gourmet variety show can't make a lot of money, it is absolutely no problem to get positive profits.

In addition, Zhang Da himself is also a gourmet lover, and the idea of ​​self-entertainment was originally in the filming of this variety show.

Now that you can make a small fortune while satisfying your personal hobbies, why not do it?

Early the next morning, Zhang Da called Xu Lin into the office, and described to him in detail his idea of ​​filming a gourmet variety show.

"Mr. Zhang, this variety show project sounds very feasible." Xu Lin said after serious consideration, "Actually, I think shooting such a variety show will test the host's hosting skills and the cameraman's shooting skills. level, and the editing skills of post-production.

If you can't capture the feeling of excellent fragrance and complete taste, the famous chefs you invite will not be able to show their culinary skills no matter how good they are. "

Zhang Da said: "What do you think, how about inviting the filming team of "A Bite of China" to film this variety show for us?"

"If they can take pictures, the effect will be no problem!" Xu Lin said, "However, it is not easy to ask them to come out of the mountain?"

"I'll take care of this," Zhang Da waved his hand, "You just need to answer me now, can this variety show be filmed?"

"Yes, that's great!" Xu Lin nodded hastily, "I'm now recruiting variety show directors and supporting field personnel, so as not to delay the shooting of the variety show!"

"You recruit all the people first, and then we have a meeting to talk about how to shoot this variety show." Zhang Da nodded and said, "You can also ask Director Chen for the director, anyway, he has a lot of classmates."

"Okay, Mr. Zhang!" Xu Lin nodded again, "I promise to pull up the team before the year, and formally establish the project after the year!"

Zhang Da smiled and said, "Well, I'll leave this to you, and I'll contact the filming team at the tip of my tongue."

Xu Lin said flatteringly: "Mr. Zhang, with you as the leader, it will definitely be a success!"

The facts are indeed as Xu Lin said, after Zhang Da asked Secretary Li to communicate with the filming team of the tip of the tongue, the cooperation was quickly finalized.

Although the filming team of Bite of the Tongue is still skeptical about the success of this unheard-of variety show, Zhang Da's reputation and high remuneration made them accept the filming contract.

Chapter 494 The guest of honor

Years later, Zhiguang Biotechnology Co., Ltd. was successfully incorporated into the "territory" of Mingda Group.

The gourmet variety show Zhang Da entrusted to Xu Lin to prepare has also reached the stage of project approval.

2 month 23 day.

On the first day after the Spring Festival in 2026, Xu Lin organized all the crew of the variety show and held a project establishment meeting in the headquarters office.

Zhang Da, who is quite concerned about the progress of this variety show, also attended the meeting.

"Mr. Zhang, this is director Xie Ming. He has previously produced a variety show for men and women and an indoor talk variety show."

In the meeting room, Xu Lin introduced a middle-aged man with beard to Zhang Da.

"Hi, Mr. Zhang!" Xie Ming greeted proactively, "Thank you for giving me the opportunity to cooperate with Mingda Film and Television Company!"

"Your own talent and ability are the reason why you were selected." Zhang Da said with a smile, "I hope to make an excellent variety show."

Xie Ming leaned forward and said, "Thank you Mr. Zhang, I will do my best!"

After Zhang Da said hello to the representatives of the tip of the tongue filming team, the meeting officially started.

"I think that when shooting a food variety show, we must highlight the core of the variety show, which is the chef and the food!" After the meeting began, Xie Ming said, "Our shots and the length of each episode should focus on the chef, ingredients and food." Only in this way can it be regarded as a real gourmet variety show.”

The representative of the Bite of Tongue team said: "Director Xie, I agree with your statement!"

In fact, when shooting the tip of the tongue, they also adopted the shooting technique that Xie Ming said.

Xu Lin pondered and asked: "Director Xie, what do you mean, the host is not very important?"

"The host is actually very important, but the host should not be too prominent in the shooting." Xie Ming said, "For our variety show, the host is like a lubricant. He needs to play a role in promoting the progress of the show. and the role of mobilizing the audience's emotions, but not too prominent."

"What about the guests?" Xu Lin continued to ask, "Our original plan was to invite some celebrities to be the tasting guests.

I promise everyone that the chefs invited by the program group are all well-known chefs, and what they cook on the program will also be their own specialty dishes.In this way, it doesn't make much sense to ask professional judges to rate their dishes.

Therefore, we are only going to invite one or two professional gourmets. Their role is to make some comments on the dishes and the cooking skills of the chefs, so that the audience can understand the cooking skills and the advantages and disadvantages of the dishes.In other words, what they undertake in the show is the job of commentator.

For the rest of the guest seats, we plan to invite a few stars to be the regular guests of the show to add some attraction to the show.

In addition, we will also set up 3 mobile guest seats, and give them to the audience watching this program through a lottery, so that they can evaluate the taste of each dish more objectively from the perspective of diners.

Gu Qi

Director Xie, what do you think of this arrangement? "

"Director Xu Lin, such an arrangement must be great!" Xie Ming nodded, "However, I think these guests, like the host, should not steal the show. The focus of our show should still be on food."

Xu Lin asked: "Director Xie, what do you mean, you don't need popular celebrities as guests on the show?"

"Yes, that's what I mean." Xie Ming smiled, "Although popular stars have high traffic, it doesn't match our program. Besides, many popular stars have to consider fans' feelings in every move they make. You may not be able to let go when participating in food shows, but some celebrities who are not well-known or do not follow the traffic route are more open when participating in variety shows, and the effect of the show is better."

"What you said makes sense." Xu Lin nodded, "Do you have any objections?"

The people present either shook their heads, or spoke directly to express their support for Xie Ming.

"Director Xie, since everyone has no opinion, you and director Xu Lin will discuss the specific guest candidates after the meeting." Zhang Da said, "Do you have any requirements for the host?"

"The host must have good field control skills, and at the same time have a certain level of understanding of food." Xie Ming said, "Mr. Zhang, actually I plan to set up a team of 2 to 3 hosts.

One person in the team is mainly responsible for controlling the field, and an experienced host needs to be selected, while the remaining hosts are responsible for communicating with the guests and chefs. The host who communicates with the chefs must have a good understanding of food.

In fact, I have another idea, which is to invite a food blogger to be the host, which can trigger discussions among the audience and increase the attention of the program.Secondly, the number of fans and popularity of food bloggers will be lower than that of celebrities, and there is no need to worry about the situation of overwhelming guests. "

"Then let's use a three-person host team first. One more person should be helpful in controlling the field." Zhang Da said, "As for the idea you mentioned of inviting a food blogger as the host, I also agree. Agreed! What do you think of the otters at station B?"

Since Xie Ming has ideas, Zhang Da naturally doesn't mind supporting his cousin.

Xu Lin, who knew that Shao Yu and Zhang Da were related, took advantage of the opportunity and said: "Otter is a well-known up host on station B, and the number of fans on station B currently exceeds 230 million. Many of the vlogs she shoots are In terms of food exploration and food production, the understanding of food is still very high.

And, coincidentally, six years ago, she had filmed a lot of vlogs that invited chefs to produce food from different countries, which just fit the theme of our program.

I think there will be no problem if she is the host! "

Hearing Xu Lin's words, Zhang Da praised him in his heart.

"To be honest, I don't use station B very much, I'll go back and find out later." Xie Ming said, "If it's appropriate, how about we send her an interview invitation?"

"I've heard of the up master, Otter." The person in charge of the Bite of Tongue team said, "The director of Bite of Tongue, Mr. Chen Xiaoqing, has a good relationship with a gourmet named Qi Kuan. Mr. Qi Kuan recommended it to Mr. Chen. I watched Otter’s store visit video and said that she took good pictures and had a good understanding of food.”

Xie Ming nodded and said, "Teacher Qi Kuan's name is often heard in the gourmet circle! If that's the case, I'll watch Otter's vlog immediately after the meeting, and send out an interview invitation as soon as possible if there is no problem!"

Zhang Da said with a smile: "Since we mentioned Mr. Qi Kuan, why don't we invite him to perform as the guest commentator of the show, what do you think?"

Chapter 495 The First Guest

At this time, Shao Yu was thinking about a very serious question at home.

3 months, 3 months have passed!

The number of her fans has only increased by a mere 1.5 people.

The number of views of recently released new videos has also failed to exceed one million.

If it goes on like this, I'm afraid it will be cold.

Fortunately, the money she earned as an up host in the past few years has been handed over to Mingda Private Equity Fund Company, and the annual rate of return is quite high.

Even if you retire now, you can guarantee that you will have no worries about food and clothing.

Shao Yu, who still didn't want to lie down completely, shook her head and thought:

"Find a way to shoot a new theme another day, or simply change the style of the video, let's make a transformation!"

Just at this moment, her cell phone rang.

The caller's note was Xu Lin, one of the few people in the Mingda Group who knew her identity.

The other party asked politely: "Shao Yu, are you not busy recently?"

"Not busy," Shao Yu said, "Is director Xu Lin going to arrange promotion for me again?"
