Top of the big era

Zhou Buqi likes to analyze current problems through history.

To sum up, it is particularly important to have a correct and positive theoretical basis. This theory may not be realized, but it can be hung on the top of the head, and it can guide everyone forward like a guiding light, and it is the spiritual pillar of the imagined community.

Without a correct theoretical basis, the Great Qin Empire, which was unprecedentedly powerful in military force, also perished; while the weak Song Dynasty, which had a strong theoretical basis and repeatedly ceded land and paid compensation, was able to continue continuously, crossing the dynasty boundary of three hundred years. When the country was destroyed, there were even 200,000 men who died for the country, which is unique in all dynasties.

The theoretical basis is the source of cohesion.

The theoretical basis of Xiaonei.com is very good - serving college students. Zhou Buqidu secretly elated from time to time, thinking that he was too smart.

But what is the theoretical basis of Ziweixing, but it has not been found.

This time he went south, Boss Ren taught him another trick, to find the answer through the United States.

Like business intelligence.

This is a great supplement to cloud computing and the broader enterprise market in the future.

In addition, the distribution of group-buying goods mentioned by Zhao Ying, and the distributed coordination of simultaneous delivery in multiple places are also very important. Then there was the conversation with Xu Liangjie just now - data!

Data, which will be the building foundation of all future business models, is reinforced concrete.

To sum up, it is intelligence, collaboration, and data.

The theoretical basis can be designed around this direction.

However, what should we do with the messy business sectors under Ziwei Star? What kind of theory should be used to explain this overly diverse policy program?

Especially right now it is necessary to customize MP3, customize mobile phones, and go deep into the hardware industry.

From a business point of view, it is not doing business properly.

If there is no set of correct theories to guide this series of operations, more and more people will question it, and in the end people will panic, and some people even lose confidence in the company's prospects and choose to leave.

The more high-end talents, the more they care about such imaginary things.

This involves the realization of one's ideals and life values.

Fortunately, Zhou Buqi felt that he had made a good start.

The threshold has been touched.

"Ya Xian!"

"coming."

"Go and tell the personnel department that the English training teacher will arrive tomorrow night. Arrange the time and prepare the training form. All management and technical personnel above T4 must participate unless there is a special reason."

"OK."

Then, Zhou Buqi received a call from Wang Xiaojun, he was full of enthusiasm and was very happy: "President Zhou, congratulations!"

"What's wrong?"

"It's a box office hit!"

"Oh, I didn't pay much attention, why? Has the box office exceeded 100 million?"

"..."

Wang Xiaojun's enthusiasm seemed to be poured with cold water.

Boss Zhou, do you know the concept of box office over 100 million? There are only three directors in the country whose single movie box office has exceeded 100 million. Director Zhang, Director Feng and Director Chen are known as the three major directors in the Mainland.

Ning Hao is a fledgling rookie, what can he do?

Zhou Buqi smiled, "Just kidding, how much is the box office?"

Wang Xiaojun said: "Three days after its release, it had a box office of 2 million. It has a good reputation. Now, the national box office has exceeded 10 million. By the end of the month, it is estimated to reach 20 million."

"Not many?"

"Mr. Zhou, the income of this movie is not just box office."

Zhou Buqi was very surprised, "Is there any derivative income? There are also domestic ones?"

Wang Xiaojun then explained: "No, I sold 6 sets to CCTV, which cost more than 100,000 yuan. The discs and tapes are also pirated, so I can't make much money. Mainly in overseas markets."

Zhou Buqi couldn't help being a little surprised, "There are still overseas markets?"

Wang Xiaojun said with a smile: "There are many Chinese people, and the European film market is very mature, and the national border threshold is not high. "Crazy Stone" has such a good reputation, overseas copyrights should be able to buy a lot. Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan can sell 1 million, and Southeast Asia can sell 500,000." , South Korea and Japan can also sell 500,000, the United States can sell 1 million, and Europe is estimated to sell 1 million."

What a surprise!

Zhou Buqi was a bit unexpected. The actual cost of this movie is about 4 million. If you only look at the box office of 23 million in the Mainland, you really can't make much money. Unexpectedly, overseas copyrights can be paid back.

Wang Xiaojun said: "Many literary films, such as those pioneering independent films made by the sixth-generation directors, sometimes have a higher rate of return than the three major directors. There is no box office in China, but they are very popular in Europe, and they can sell for two to three hundred. Ten thousand euros. If you win the prize, the return will be even more.”

"Hua Yi participated?"

"No, we mainly make commercial films, those literary films... you know, the subject matter is more sensitive, not suitable for a regular big company like us. We are preparing to cooperate with Hollywood to make an action blockbuster, Cheng Long, Li Lianjie and others will participate."

"Hua Yi still has money? Aren't you going to vote in Director Feng's movie?"

"There is no money, but there are investors, the funds brought in by Boss Chen. Huayi is a big company, or Hollywood would not recognize it."

Zhou Buqi said with a smile: "This matter is really talking about. When old Chen was pulling funds, he even approached me, wanting to support his daughter. But I didn't participate, and the cycle was too long."

Wang Xiaojun also suggested: "Don't participate. Those Hollywood film companies are getting darker than the other. Most of the funds are paid by us, but the copyright is theirs. Even if we make money, we can only passively get dividends. Even if we lose money, it's us Lose money, they protect capital."

Zhou Buqi laughed and said: "It's normal, the same shares have different rights, and the United States is doing this."

"Forget it, let's not talk about this. "Crazy Stone" has a box office of more than 10 million. I am going to hold a celebration party and invite some guests over. Are you coming?"

"I won't go."

Zhou Buqi was speechless.

He obviously has no interest in this kind of activity. Did Boss Wang get it wrong? Why do you invite yourself to participate in this Vanity Fair event every day? If you want to get closer to your friendship, it's good to sit down, drink tea and chat in private. Why do you do all this mess? Not real estate bosses and coal bosses.

Unexpectedly, Wang Xiaojun was rejected, but he couldn't refuse the next call.

Xu Baihui also called to invite.

Say it's this weekend, there's an event!

"Crazy Stone" is the first film produced by Jieyu Media, and it got off to a good start. At that time, she, the boss, will give a passionate speech, declaring that Jieyu Media has officially entered the entertainment circle. This is a particularly important event in a year, and he, the boss behind the scenes, must be present.

"Hey, the business is getting bigger, I really can't help myself!"

Zhou Buqi sighed and shook his head. I hope that at that time, I will not meet some female stars who are ostentatious, otherwise it will be a great test of my willpower.

He has performed well in the past few months, it is best to persevere and not relapse.

Well, less broken.

In the afternoon, Yu Minhong came over and brought a foreigner with a big nose.

It is said that it is a foreign teacher from Beijing No. 2 Foreign Language School, named Thomas, an American who has worked in China for ten years. He is well-known in the foreign teacher circle in the capital, and those in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs are basically his students. For advanced English training, he is basically the one to come forward.

The only downside is that it is expensive.

A class costs 30,000 yuan.

Zhou Buqi said that money is not a problem, as long as the teaching is good.

Yu Minhong said that there is no need to just look for him, and it is enough to arrange him to give a lecture every week. In the rest of the time, other foreign teachers and teachers from New Oriental will come to give lectures.

The general arrangement is from 9:00 pm to 10:00 pm, and the teachers from New Oriental will talk about some learning methods. From 10:00 to 11:00, foreign teachers came to the stage to talk about some oral expressions and customary usages.

Zhou Buqi accepted it all.

His English is barely level 6, and he also wants to take this opportunity to learn English systematically.

Then chat with Thomas.

He married a girl from the capital, and has already bought a house here to settle down. He spends no more than two months returning to the United States every year, and speaks an authentic Beijing accent.

Kind of handsome and talkative too.

"It's summer vacation now, there are no classes in school, and there are more other jobs. I'm very busy, and I can only have one class a week at most. Please forgive me, Mr. Zhou."

"Mr. Thomas, you are welcome."

"I have to go to CCTV to give a lecture."

"CCTV?"

Zhou Buqi was a little surprised.

Thomas nodded, "Yes, their hosts seem to have English training too, isn't it the Olympic Games coming up soon, and many major institutions are doing English training."

Zhou Buqi was a little curious, "Train the hosts of CCTV? How is their level?"

"Very good, the overall quality is very high. The environment is good and the treatment is good. It is a big company."

"That's for sure, the essence of the whole country is there."

"But there's one thing I'm puzzled about."

"how?"

Thomas looked confused, and shook his head, "When get out of class was over, I chatted with them and found that most of the hostesses were not married. I asked them what kind of husband they were looking for."

Zhou Buqi was a little funny, he didn't expect the foreigner to gossip like this, "What do those hostesses say?"

Thomas said: "They say that if you want to marry, you have to marry two types of people—killing people like sticks, and spending money like dirt. I can understand spending money like dirt. It means rich people, businessmen like you. But what does it mean to kill people like sticks? In my case It seems that the social security in China is much better than that in Europe and the United States, safe and stable, how can you kill people like hemp?"

Zhou Buqi twitched the corners of his mouth, and exchanged glances with Yu Minhong.

I feel that this foreigner is not very reliable.

It seems that when he came to Ziweixing to give lectures later, he had to give the staff a password to stop talking nonsense. This Thomas relationship network is too complicated, and the mouth is not sure, so it is not worth making a deep friendship.

Yu Minhong laughed, and explained with a smile: "This is a metaphor, and it can be regarded as a manifestation of the profoundness of our Chinese language. It means that they yearn for power and money."

"That's it..."

Thomas looked thoughtful.

Then, I added up the financial matters. 25 classes a month, the total cost is 300,000, which is really not low.

Zhou Buqi said that he should study for half a year first. The effect is good, and I will study for another half a year.
