When he came out of the old chief's yard, Li Mingbao was still feeling dizzy. After all, he got so many things from the old chief, so much that he could make a lot of money with just any idea. . ¡°Compared to Hong Kong where you can¡¯t make much money even though you work so hard, Hollywood has to use your brains to get the US dollars. In the current mainland market, no matter which direction you go, as long as you dare to place a bet, there is basically no reason to lose money. Even if you want to lose money, the local government cannot let you lose money. To be honest, as long as foreign capital enters the mainland, invests according to the rules, and does nothing else, there is no way to lose money. The government can protect you. No matter what industry you are in, as long as you produce things Once it comes out, like wine, it can be directly used as government hospitality supplies. With a small investment, it can be used as a municipal-level hospitality product. With a large investment, it can be used as a provincial-level hospitality product. If there is a huge investment, it may not be possible to use wine for state banquets. . Therefore, for the first batch of people to invest in the mainland, even if your own capital is not strong enough, the mainland government can increase your capital and set a benchmark to prove the effectiveness of its investment promotion. Li Mingbao does not engage in other things. The entertainment industry alone is enough for him to engage in for a lifetime. The things that are involved in the entertainment industry are not small and small. Wherever you can start, the profits are basically quite generous. It can be said that this is a big gold mine, and even in some individual places, the profits are even more than that of finance. This is why Hollywood has attracted the attention of many Wall Street investors, because their financial industry is really not as profitable as the entertainment industry in some places. Therefore, in the following years, the connection between Hollywood and Wall Street became closer. Unless encountering some special circumstances, the entertainment industry would never decline. Even during the war, the development of Hollywood did not stop. Pass. The more you know about this industry, the more you know how deep it is. Especially after Li Mingbao obtained the access permit, this feeling became more obvious. If the population of the mainland is not enough, the profits may not be much, but even a place like South Korea, with a population of tens of millions, can still achieve brilliant results. Not to mention mainland China, a place with almost unlimited potential, is definitely the richest mine. On the way back, Li Mingbao had countless thoughts running wildly in his mind, and the plan behind each thought could bring him extremely generous returns. But after he talked with his elder brother, Li Mingbao's originally enthusiastic heart slowly calmed down. It was not until he understood the real reason why Uncle Liu and the others were dismissive of such good conditions in the mainland that he realized that this rich mine in the mainland was not It's so easy to cultivate. If you're not careful, you won't even be able to compensate for your own possessions. By this time, Li Mingbao had become calmer, and the calmer Li Mingbao, coupled with the experience of the big boss, finally made efforts in three aspects. As for other profitable entertainment industries, Li Mingbao felt that he should put it aside first Let it go, it¡¯s still relatively sensible. For example, singers who are closely related to movie stars, or in the field of singing, Li Mingbao believes that this is not an industry that he can easily get involved in. ¡°Compared to the fact that there is no suitable media for playing movies in mainland China, the dissemination of songs, even in mainland China, is not very difficult. If others can't afford a video recorder, why can't they also afford a radio? Although radios that can play tapes cannot be said to be completely popular in mainland China, they are not uncommon. Especially for young people who have the strongest ability to accept songs, their radio penetration rate is much higher than that of people of other ages. The largest group of potential buyers is not within the scope of my control. The career of song distribution is quite hopeless in mainland China. No matter how good your songs are, once you record them on tape, pirated tapes can be found in thousands of households. In these days, mainland China doesn¡¯t even have patent laws. It¡¯s really not difficult to pirate songs, even if you are caught. Merchants who see pirated copies don't know how to deal with them. That he pirated your songs? This is a good reason. From a moral perspective, it is indeed not a good thing. But if you want to impose sanctions on these people on a legal level, even if you go to the High Court, no one can support your opinion. Because there is no law in this area at all, how can you ask the High Court to rule? Not even fines, there is no such clause. Even within state-owned enterprises, it is a situation where you copy me and I copy you. If the responsibility for piracy is held, Li Mingbao will immediately become unpopular in the mainland. The people he offends will definitely go to sea. Therefore, the release of audio tapes is absolutely unacceptable in the mainland. It's not a profitable business. As for making money by holding concerts, this is even more nonsense. If you do this in Hong Kong, it is okay, and you can bring out the principal and Mei 28. If you hold concerts in the mainland, at least in this day and age, you are seeking death. performance? Let¡¯s not talk about how many places across the country can provide conditions for holding concerts. After all, you must at least hold a concert in a closed environment, right? Otherwise, how would you count the tickets? Those held in the open air are called charity performances. They don't pay you to watch you dance and sing, and they also have to bother you with running the venue yourself. This is definitely a loss-making business. Well, even if you take down the stadium and have the conditions to hold a concert, how much the tickets will be sold is still a big problem. Just like the largest stadium in the country now, a stadium can only accommodate up to 100,000 people. People, and such stadiums usually have political missions. Not everyone can apply to hold a pop music concert? This can get their curator fired. Even if you really get such a good venue, will you charge 10 cents for the ticket? Or get two cents? Don't even say you charge one yuan, then no one will take notice. Now one dollar is expensive even in the capital, and it can buy you a lot of meat, enough for you to have a good meal. ¡°Use this money to go to a concert, and my legs will be broken in my lifetime. Words like "Prodigal Son" and "It's just a waste of time" can be slapped on your forehead immediately. It may last a lifetime. Is it really necessary to do this just to watch a concert? But the ticket price is definitely a drop in the bucket compared to what Li Mingbao paid for the concert. Even if the venue is full, the final money received is only 10,000 yuan, which is not even enough to hire a singer. , let alone other expenses. Even if the ticket price of one yuan is full, Li Mingbao can only collect a total of 100,000 yuan. After all expenses, it is still a loss-making business in the end. Therefore, there is no market for singing in the entertainment industry in mainland China. And the entertainment industry without a market is not uncommon in mainland China. There are pits everywhere, and these pits are quite big. Once you get in, you may not be able to get out. So after Li Mingbao really woke up, it took him a long time to choose these three paths, and among these three paths, there was another one that was not that closely related to the entertainment industry. Really speaking, this thing has nothing to do with the manufacturing industry. A little further to the side. Li Mingbao's mind is very clear. He even knows that if he really wants to make money, his first income may not come from CCTV, because when negotiating with such a government department, one or two years is not too little, and eight years in ten years is not too little. Years are not too many years. If you want to negotiate with the current CCTV, such commercial issues are far from being solved by commercial negotiations. The first thing you have to solve is political matters. You can only wait for the nod from the superior department. There is a real opportunity to cooperate with CCTV. If the superior departments don't nod, even if you can create a value of 100 million yuan in a short period of time through this industry, they will not agree. Therefore, if you want to really gain something in mainland China within a year, it is the peripheral industries with the lowest profit margin that can achieve your goal. As for why Li Mingbao believes that peripheral industries have the lowest profit margins? Because Li Mingbao holds very few peripheral industries with his own copyrights, and the value he can create is quite low. The peripheral profits of "Home Alone" should be quite good, but unfortunately, Li Mingbao has already packaged and sold this profit to 20th Century Fox. This profit is not in Li Mingbao's hands at all. As for other movies, either they are not popular enough now, or the peripheral market that can be developed is not very good. Anyway, Li Mingbao's bargaining chip in the peripheral industry can be said to be quite bad. If he wants to receive orders as quickly as possible and make huge profits, Li Mingbao actually has only one way to go in this industry, which is to do OEM work, just like Futukang. As for whether there will be Zhang Quandan We have to talk about such awesome assembly line employees later. But now, the advantages of doing OEM in mainland China are not that obvious, because even if Li Mingbao wants to do OEM, the problem of raw materials may not be solved in mainland China. So the most initial action was to process supplied materials and earn some assembly fees. Although the profit was not very high, this industry really created a lot of value for the mainland in a certain period of time. Of course, No one has proposed this concept yet. If Li Mingbao really builds such a factory, he might become the first in mainland China to process supplied materials. Regarding this matter, if he really wants to do it well, Li Mingbao has to go to Hollywood and get in touch with Disney. Because in the OEM business, especially in the entertainment market, Disney is a company that cannot be ignored. If we can sign some OEM contracts with them, , just the puppet peripherals such as dolls they make every year have an output value of hundreds of millions or billions of dollars in sales. Li Mingbao's random picks from these orders are enough to support a large factory. Moreover, such an enterprise will be liked by many people no matter where it is in mainland China, and it can solve a large part of the surplus labor force.
