1779 [Poaching Plan]
When Zhao Shikang saw Xia Tian say this, he nodded even though he didn't agree.
Subsequently, Wang Xianzong, general manager of Tianxia Technology, also reported to Xia Tian.
Tianxia Technology is mainly composed of Bainaohui Computer, Gigabyte motherboard, and equity shares of several Taiwanese electronic technology companies. Now it has a market value of around HK$5 billion, making it the most capital high-tech company on both sides of the Taiwan Strait and the three places.
"Our Bainaohui sold a total of 3.85 million computers last year, with a total profit of 1.235 million Hong Kong dollars. After our mainland factory is completed and officially put into production next spring, it is expected that the annual production of computers will exceed 8 million and the profit will exceed 3 billion Hong Kong dollars." Wang Xianzonghui reported, "In addition, our Bainaohui has successively invested in many high-tech companies such as Gigabyte, Intai, and MSI, and now the equity has increased by nearly 250 million Hong Kong dollars."
Xia Tian nodded after hearing this, and then instructed, "Mr. Wang, in addition to expanding production and expanding sales in the next step, we should work hard to study technology. Only by producing computers with independent patents can we not be afraid of competition from our competitors."
Bainaohui is still mainly engaged in assembling and selling computers, and it is a business as the Daobao online store in his previous life. Because people are not familiar with computers and are not popular with DIYs, Bainaohui can do it smoothly.
However, with the popularization of computer technology, DIY computers will become more and more popular, and in this way, Bainaohui's business will inevitably be affected.
Moreover, there is no high-tech in assembling computers. As long as there is a start-up capital, a new computer company will be born in every minute. In the past life, there were many computer brands such as Fangzheng, Tongfang, Lenovo, Haier, Qixi, Hisense, etc., but few of them could persevere until the end.
When I was in college in Beijing in summer, I saw Zhongguancun launching a number of branded computers, such as Chaoqun, Jin Hengsheng, Pioneer, etc., but they were all noisy and were eliminated by the market in one or two years.
The reason is that these brand computers lack patented technology and originality, and the prices cannot compete with the DIY brand, so they gradually lose the market and are eliminated by the market.
So to avoid this situation, you must develop your own unique patents and have your own advantages in terms of reliability, operability and performance. Otherwise, there will be so many computer brands in the future, and you can even DIY yourself. Why do you have to buy your computer?
Wang Xianzong nodded, "We have invested 100 million Hong Kong dollars in research and development of related technologies, and have applied for six patents."
When Xia Tian heard this, he nodded with a smile.
...
Subsequently, Chen Hwai-cong, general manager of Tianxia Hotel, also reported to Xia Tian about the operation of the hotel industry.
Tianxia Hotel is the most powerful hotel giant in Hong Kong. It now has 62 hotels, including 21 five-star hotels, 35 four-star hotels, and six express hotels.
The total assets of the sixty-two hotels exceed HK$10 billion, with annual revenue reaching HK$3.565 billion and net profit of HK$123 million.
The hotel industry is closely related to trade, finance, tourism, etc., and is a third-party service industry. Hong Kong's economy will be tortuous in the next few years. Moreover, with the increasing close contacts with the mainland, more and more people come to Hong Kong to travel, visit relatives and do business, so the hotel industry has great potential.
However, Xia Tian also knew that after 1997, there would be a major disaster in Hong Kong. At that time, the real estate industry would collapse and his hotels would depreciate significantly.
"At that time, should we sell some in advance and cash out?" Xia Tian couldn't help thinking, and then he instructed Chen Hsien, "Mr. Chen, there will be more and more mainland tourists coming to Hong Kong for vacation in the future. We should take good care of our employees. Don't think that they are from the mainland and that they have never seen the world, so they are slow.
Any employee who dares to neglect customers will be deducted at the least and fired directly at the worst, and will be held accountable by you leaders. Do you understand?"
"Yes, Mr. Xia." When he heard that it was related to his wallet, Chen HChong immediately nodded and agreed.
...
"Okay, I've read and heard of your reports. Well, it's really good. It seems that the situation is not small but big!" Xia Tian smiled, "It's all thanks to everyone's efforts. I thank you here."
"You're welcome, Mr. Xia, this is what we should do!" Everyone said with a smile.
"No need to be humble. If you have merits, you will reward you. If you have been punished, I will never treat others badly. In this way, you will get half a year salary at the end of the year as a bonus to thank you for your hard work this year." Xia Tian smiled again.
After hearing what he said, everyone laughed happily.
As general managers of various departments, their monthly salary is 300,000 Hong Kong dollars, which is already considered a high-paying member in the Hong Kong working world. Now, with half a year salary as a reward, that is 1.8 million Hong Kong dollars, which is a lot of money.
"Thank you, Mr. Xia!" Everyone laughed.
"You don't have to be polite. I hope you can continue to work hard next year and achieve success!" Xia Tian said with a smile, "Okay, let's go. Second brother, Mr. Zhou, you two stay."
After hearing what he said, everyone got up and walked out. Wang Xianzong and Zhou Liang Shuyi stayed.
"Second brother, it's been a long time since we met." Xia Tianxian said with a smile to Wang Xianzong.
"Yes, it's been a few months. Is Xiaoxian okay?" Wang Xianzong asked with concern.
"Very good, she went back to Hong Kong with me today." Xia Tian nodded, "If she knew that you were in Hong Kong, she would definitely be very happy."
"Well, I'll go over to see her later." Wang Xianzong said with a smile.
"Okay, but I'll have to meet a few friends later. I can't go home to accompany you first." Xia Tian said regretfully again.
"It's okay, you're busy, I know." Wang Xianzong smiled.
"Thank you for your understanding," Xia Tian smiled, "Okay, you go first. Xiaoxian must be very happy to see you."
"Well, then I'll leave first." Wang Xianzong smiled and then walked out.
...
Xia Tian then looked at Zhou Liang Shuyi again.
"Master Zhou, I have an idea and want to discuss it with you." He said with a smile.
"Mr. Xia, please speak." Zhou Liangshuyi nodded.
"That's right. Now I have opened up the channels for Hong Kong films to enter the United States. In this way, the Hong Kong film market has expanded by nearly three times. In that case, we can shoot more movies and make more money." Xia Tian smiled.
Zhou Liang Shuyi nodded. Before, the Hong Kong film market was limited, and it could only be sold in Hong Kong, Taiwan, Southeast Asia, and even South Korea and Fusang, let alone the European and American markets.
Therefore, the annual output of Hong Kong films is limited, and the production cost is also limited. Because if the output is high, they will not be able to compete with each other and they will not be able to obtain high box office. If the production cost is high, they may not be able to recover the cost.
The reason why Cheng Long dared to shoot "The Thunderbolt" for HK$250 million and "The Flying Eagle Plan" for HK$115 million is because his movies have a market overseas and can be sold in Fusang, South Korea and even the United States. Other stars do not have such a big box office appeal, so they dare not be as generous as him.
Now that successfully bringing Hong Kong films to the United States in summer is equivalent to expanding the Hong Kong film market and indeed able to accommodate more Hong Kong films.
"But if the production scale is expanded, relying solely on Hong Kong's manpower is probably not enough." Xia Tian smiled again.
Previously, more than 80 movies were filmed every year in Hong Kong, many of which were performed by well-known movie stars such as Zhou Runfa, Cheng Long, Lin Qingxia and Hu Hui. A star had to act in three or four dramas a year on average.
If the production scale of Hong Kong films is expanded and the number of doubled in the future, then the stars will not be enough. After all, they cannot shoot six or eight movies a year. Even if they dare to act, they will not dare to use them in summer.
"Mr. Xia means..." Zhou Liang Shuyi asked.
"I mean discovering new people. Hong Kong has a small land with limited potential. Even if you dig deeper, there will be not many talents, so I am considering poaching people from the mainland." Xia Tian said.
