Didn't you say that we would lose money after filming?

Obviously, if there is sufficient capital injection now, many ideas will not have to be realized later, but can be laid out now. Moreover, this is a continuous cash flow, not something that disappears after a wave.

I just didn’t expect that a vision I had three years ago would actually come true.

When he proposed this idea, it was actually quite aggressive. Although there were specific plans, it was not realized.

Now it has been realized in Ami's hands.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, you will find that it is normal for this idea to be realized, because the reason why they were not able to follow the plan immediately when he proposed it was mainly because their foundation was not enough.

As an online literature website that has just been established, how many book libraries can it have?

You know, the core competitiveness of online literature sites is the library resources and good author resources, which can attract readers. How can a newly established Yuantu have any resources? If it doesn't even have the core competitiveness, how can it compete with others?

The reason why it can now explode under Ami's operation is actually because after three years of accumulation, the foundation has been laid and they have accumulated some resources.

But to put it bluntly, it also has something to do with Ami's decisiveness. Having the courage to make such a decision and turning an idea into reality is also a kind of ability.

There are a lot of people in China who would rather do nothing than make mistakes. Such people are almost everywhere in companies, and there are even a lot of them in senior management. The abilities of many of them are simply not worthy of the salaries they receive.

This is commonly known as low skill and high salary.

In fact, to put it bluntly, it is because they are afraid of taking responsibility.

People like Ami are extremely rare and extremely precious.

"I have to say, this Ami is really a talented person!" Xia Yuan exclaimed.

"Ha!" Tang Ying laughed.

Sure enough, it would be a miracle if those people under her could produce a blank slate. Basically, all of them were experts in backstabbing. If she was not careful, they would give her a big blow. This Ami was no exception.

He is obviously a recent graduate from a third-rate undergraduate program. If he had been placed in this kind of school in the early years when the third batch of undergraduate programs had not been cancelled, he would have been a pure graduate of a third-rate bottom-tier university. He did not have any outstanding fields in his years of college, and then he went to work in self-media and accumulated some traffic and fans.

This kind of resume is actually not suitable for being a CTO, and is not an operational talent. It looks like a money-losing person no matter how you look at it.

But what about now? He did something terrible to her without saying anything, and this wasn't the first time. He had done something terrible to Tang Ying several times before.

If it had been in the past, she would have been furious and roared like a dragon on the spot.

But now?

Haha, Wu Suowei!

She has gradually calmed down.

To put it bluntly, she got used to it, and she had always failed in the past and had never succeeded once. The long-term experience was constantly undermining her self-confidence. She began to doubt herself and no longer had any hope.

After her mentality was a little unbalanced at first, she became Buddhist again.

Now her idea is very simple.

It’s best to make a loss.

I won't lose money, but I won't force it.

The lessons learned in the past are there for us: it is better not to be happy too soon, even though their new projects seem to be in a bad shape now.

What's the problem with the release being blocked? No theaters are willing to cooperate with them, and the subject matter of the new movie goes against the mainstream. It's really asking for trouble.

If this happened to someone else or another company, it would of course look so bad, as if they were basically doomed to lose money.

But if you put it on yourself
She never held out any hope until the last moment. She has learned her lesson!!
Because who knows what unexpected reversal or turn of events might occur in the end, especially with those traitors in the company, who knows when one of them might suddenly stab her in the back and stab her hard in the heart.

Will this kind of thing happen less and less if it continues like this?
So we can’t celebrate too early, especially we can’t open the champagne too early! This is what Tang Ying has in mind.

As for Xia Yuan, his idea was very simple.

Before, he had been thinking about settling for the second best and talking to private cinemas about the release of the film.

But things are different now. Now that we have money, what’s the point of talking about releasing the film?
Let’s talk about acquisition!

After they have money, they can directly think about opening a cinema chain. Since those cinema chains don't like to have them play, they want to do this to save face for Twenty-First Century Fox.

Well, then they just don't play together anymore in the future. He doesn't like to flatter others, so he might as well just overturn the table.

If it were an ordinary person or an ordinary company, they would probably be controlled by them and be in a state of panic.

But with the senior sister’s cheating tips here, it’s a safety net. Do they still need to be afraid of losing money?
And in the early stage, there is actually no need to set up the stall too big at once. Food must be eaten bite by bite, and everything must be done step by step.

In the early stage, we can first expand to Los Angeles and California, with the entire California as the initial core point, and then consider radiating outward step by step.

Therefore, this wave of billions of funds is completely sufficient and is enough to cover the sunk costs of the first wave of investment.

They acted immediately and soon found the destination they were supposed to discuss today, which was the Old John Theater.

The Old John Theater is located near the Hollywood Hills, which is a good location. It has been in business for more than 60 years. It is a mid-to-high-end cinema that has been run by the same family for three generations.

At this time, in the Old John Theater, John Jolson III was sitting in his office, looking at the account book with a sad face.

John III, who was only 23 years old, took over the family business at an early age. After graduating from high school, he returned home to take over the family theater. It was actually quite impressive to say that. Many of his peers, friends, and classmates envied him and thought he was living a good life.

He is also a young man who lives a comfortable life, and is considered a good partner by many girls.

But in reality?

What few people know is that John III was going through a period of hard times. During those years, he was actually having a miserable life. It could even be said that he was putting on a brave face. Although he looked prosperous on the surface, it was actually all maintained deliberately.

Because in recent years, the business situation of their theater has not been good, and the situation can be said to be extremely difficult.

It can be said that it was affected by the epidemic in the early years. Since the epidemic, the global economic market has suffered a huge blow and caused many chain reactions.

Although the subsequent economic data on paper have recovered very well and many data have become very eye-catching, the market seems to be thriving.

But only when you actually do business will you feel it personally, and in fact it is not the case at all.

During those years, people stayed at home and rarely went out, which resulted in a significant reduction in the industrial market. The development of the Internet, coupled with the popularization and expansion of various online services and payment industries, reached the lower-tier markets.

Once it sank, it sank quite thoroughly, directly into the mud. As a result, there is nothing that cannot be solved by the Internet?
If you can handle all your problems and needs without leaving home, who would be willing to go out?

Living habits accumulated over several years are destined to be difficult to change, and the film and television market has also been hit quite hard.

Moreover, to put it bluntly, the majority of resources and cakes in this industry have been eaten up by the top capitals. There used to be space for private theaters like them to survive, but now everyone's soil has been shrunk again and again due to the impact of the Internet. The soil for those big capitals has decreased. What else can they do well?
So, in fact, the account situation has been in a very bleak state for many years, and now their family has little money left.

This means that they have shrunk from a wealthy family to a well-off family.

Looking at the data on paper, if there is no adjustment and no turning point, it is estimated that the family will go bankrupt in the future, because if this theater continues to operate and maintain, it will be a money-eating beast.

"I envy the situation in Hanxia. I heard that Hanxia has supporting funds for all walks of life, especially industry." John III said enviously.

What do they have here? Nothing. To put it bluntly, America is a pure cannibalistic society. Once you are inferior to others and are outdone by them, you will be eaten up. Otherwise, there are so many homeless people on the street. If you look around, you can always find one or two former rich people who were once prosperous.

There are even many former billionaires who are homeless today!
This is the cruelty of capitalism! (End of this chapter)
