Chapter 922 Where did the money go?
Chen Changan looked at Uncle Nie with a smile on his face and knew that he was not being sincere.
It may be true that they think it is too expensive, but isn’t it easy for such a large department to participate in the early construction of pagers?
He just saw that the car factory had a lot of funds and wanted to get it for free.
"Uncle Nie, I have to make it clear to you that once the signal tower covers the entire city, the price of a pager will be two thousand yuan.
This includes initial research and development funds, signal tower construction funds, and subsequent maintenance costs.
In fact, the cost of the pager itself is less than a hundred yuan.
If you participate in the initial investment, you will be one of the shareholders and can purchase the pagers at cost price.
But if you wait until our car factory is finished, then you can buy it, and it will be 2,000 yuan per unit, no cheating."
Uncle Nie said with a smile.
"You, do you only bully the elderly like this? Well, I'm also a little curious about this pager. Tell me, how much does it cost for us?"
"Of course the more the better."
Seeing Uncle Nie's expression change, Chen Changan immediately changed his words.
“Let’s put it this way. Our car factory is responsible for manufacturing signal towers, including power supplies, lightning protection, antennas and other equipment.
The ministry will be responsible for the land lease and some funding for the subsequent installation. What do you think?"
Uncle Nie thought about it and then nodded. There were only 24 signal towers around.
In Uncle Nie's opinion, the issue of land leasing is not a problem at all.
As for the signal tower, it's just putting up a few electric poles. How can it not be done well?
The matter was settled, and Chen Changan left Uncle Nie's office happily.
In this way, the initial construction cost of the automobile factory can be reduced a lot.
The condition he promised to join the company was that the department could purchase pagers at cost price.
Chen Changan felt that he had made a huge profit. At least the pager did not lose money and it also attracted a large wave of sponsorship.
Uncle Nie also felt that he had made a profit. The so-called cost of Chen Changan was nothing to Uncle Nie.
Land lease? What is that? 24 built signal towers? Isn't that just putting up electric poles?
Can digging a hole and filling it with concrete be called an investment?
Just this little thing allowed me to purchase pagers at a low price. Isn't that a big profit?
It doesn't cost much to equip everyone in the department with a pager, and that's a benefit.
Look at other departments and you will see how many of them can afford a pager that costs 2,000 yuan.
As for the licensing issue, it was just a matter of a phone call for Uncle Nie.
As for business issues or the profits from selling pagers, Uncle Nie didn't even mention them.
In Nie's opinion, only a few government departments and a few state-owned enterprises can afford a pager that costs 2,000 yuan. As for ordinary citizens, they simply cannot afford it.
In Uncle Nie's opinion, it is extremely difficult to make money with pagers. Chen Changan probably just wants to make a small device for their factory or government department that can contact people in an emergency.
After returning to the automobile factory, Chen Changan immediately arranged for Engineer Huang to supervise the production of signal towers.
After returning home, Chen Changan edited the film under Xiujuan's supervision.
According to Xiujuan, she only received the salary as a director, and had no share of the company's dividends.
The Huo family is not stupid. Although the company's name is Xiujuan's, it actually belongs to Chen Changan.
"Brother, the Huo family is too stingy. They didn't pay me much for the film. After buying you the watch, there's not much left.
If you don’t edit the movie quickly and release it, I’ll be out of money.”
"How is that possible? First of all, the film is finished, and your mission is over. How could the Huo family not give you money?
The Huo family is not stingy. Even for my sake, I will not give you less money.
Tell me, how much money did the Huo family give you? If it's really too little, I'll go find them."
Seeing Xiujuan hesitating and not saying anything, Chen Changan's face darkened.
"You didn't spend all your money? You bought me a watch and two bags for your sister-in-law?
Tell me clearly where did you spend all your money? If you can't explain it clearly, you should never go to Hong Kong Island again.
It’s better to find a good job and go to work every day.”
Although Xiujuan is usually very lively, once Chen Changan gets angry, she immediately becomes obedient.
Following Chen Changan's questioning, Xiujuan finally told the truth.
The Huo family was not stingy. With the completion of the filming of "Shaolin Temple", even though Xiujuan was a new director, the Huo family still gave Xiujuan 200,000 Hong Kong dollars for Chen Changan's sake.
As the movie became a hit, the Fok family gave Xiujuan another 200,000 Hong Kong dollars.
Just by filming one movie, Xiujuan earned 400,000 Hong Kong dollars.
For the second film, "Shaolin Temple Legend", due to the popularity of the first film, Xiujuan directly received 500,000 Hong Kong dollars.
With just two movies, Xiujuan earned nearly one million Hong Kong dollars.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have bought such an expensive watch for Chen Changan and a luxury bag for Zhu Ling.
Most of this money was invested by Xiujuan in Hong Kong stocks.
"You are a little girl, do you know what stocks are? How dare you throw so much money into the stock market?"
“I didn’t just play around in Hong Kong Island, I certainly knew about the stock market.
Besides, with the Huo family helping me, it’s hard to lose money. It’s much better than putting it in the bank and earning interest anyway.”
Hearing that the Huo family would help with management, Chen Changan felt relieved.
As a big family from Hong Kong Island, it is indeed not easy to make them lose a lot of money in the stock market.
And if Chen Changan remembered correctly, the Iron Lady would visit again at the end of the year.
When the two countries sign the joint statement, Hong Kong's stock market will rise sharply.
Xiujuan is not young anymore, and this money is her salary from filming the movie. How she spends it is her own business.
“I’m warning you, you’re lucky this time. By the end of the year, the Hong Kong stock market will soar, and you’ll probably make a lot of money then.
But stocks are an investment, and since it is an investment there will be losses and gains. Don't invest all your assets in the stock market.
In the future, you will have more and more money, so you must control the amount of money you invest in the stock market."
"Brother, don't worry, I'll just invest this much. When I make money in the future, I'll put it in the bank and never spend it recklessly."
Afterwards, Chen Changan and Xiujuan discussed the issue of film editing.
A few days later, Chen Changan handed the edited film to Zhu Ling, preparing to release it in mainland China.
Zhu Ling was very curious about the sequel of "Shaolin Temple" and watched it on the spot.
“I feel that it is not as shocking as the first one, I don’t know if it’s because I’ve watched too many martial arts movies.
But I believe that this movie can still be successful. Will there be a sequel?"
"Sister-in-law, I have a new script, and this time I'm going to prepare to win an award."
