Chapter 915: The Emerging Gold-Eating Beast
They hadn't been to WeMedia for a long time, and when he came back to the new headquarters of WeMedia, they were already slightly surprised.
In the past two years, with the support of Wu Hao and others, Micro Media has developed rapidly, and has grown from a small group of more than a dozen people to a huge company with six or seven hundred people.
In this way, the previous office building must not be able to accommodate it, so Lin Wei rented more than a dozen floors in the high-rise office building in the commercial area next to it for their company's office use.
Now this office building has basically been monopolized by Micro Media, except for some floors that have not been recovered. It is said that the lease contract of the company on these floors will expire soon, and it will be moved out one after another.
In fact, it's not the turn of these people not to move, and if they don't move out, it's a little inconvenient to go in and out now. The security access control of the entire building has almost been taken over and improved by Micro Media, and Micro Media has moved slightly, and the companies on these floors have been affected.
Therefore, many companies have already moved out, and the remaining ones would have moved out long ago if it weren't for the fact that the lease contract has not expired and the company's new location has not been settled.
This morning, Wu Hao and Zhang Jun made a special trip to the headquarters of Micro Media, mainly because today the media will release two triple-A games. As the largest shareholder of Micro Media and an important strategic partner of Micro Media, Wu Hao and Zhang Jun should also be present to support.
Of course, the official launch event was not held here, but in the event center next to it. This is also a supporting facility for the entire business center, where many large-scale corporate events will be held.
Wu Hao and Zhang Jun came to the company in advance, on the one hand, of course, to listen to the introduction of Lin Wei, the person in charge of the micro-media company. On the other hand, this is also the first time that Wu Hao and his team have officially come to Micro Media for a long time, and there is also a hint of inspection work in it.
Therefore, the executives of micro media were waiting for them downstairs in the company, and when they saw Wu Hao and Zhang Jun getting out of the car, they immediately greeted them with a smile.
Seeing that Lin Wei, who was wearing a haute couture uniform, was walking towards him with a smile on his face, Wu Hao said with a smile: "Let's come over and have a look, there's no need to be so grand." ”
Lin Wei said with a smile when she heard this: "You and Mr. Zhang rarely come to the door so officially, so we naturally have to greet them warmly."
Welcome the two leaders to visit the micro media to inspect the work, we invite. ”
Hearing Lin Wei's words, Zhang Jun grinned. His eyes couldn't help but look back and forth on Zhang Jun and Wu Hao, and then happily quipped: "I said you two, as for being so polite, you look like outsiders." Let's go, let's go inside. ”
As he spoke, Zhang Jun took the lead and walked inside. And Wu Hao and Lin Wei glanced at each other, then shook their heads with a smile and walked in together surrounded by everyone.
Because it is a cultural content operation company, the corporate culture and internal management style of the so-called micro-media are very different from the style of Mr. Liang of Haoyu Technology.
Of course, Lin Wei also learned some management methods and corporate culture of Haoyu Technology, so there are still many similarities.
As for Lin Wei, while taking Wu Hao and them to visit the entire company, she introduced them to Wu Hao and Zhang Jun: "Benefiting from Haoyu Technology's strong support for us, we have achieved great development and growth in the past two years. The company has also grown from a small team of more than a dozen people to a large company of nearly 800 people.
Last year, our annual revenue has reached more than 100 billion, and this figure has been exceeded in the first three quarters of this year, and we expect the company's annual revenue this year to reach about 150 to 170 billion. ”
Hearing Lin Wei's report, Zhang Jun's eyes lit up and he became excited instantly. As for Wu Hao, he also smiled and nodded.
This is indeed a very good achievement, especially for a company like Micro Media, which is even more rare.
You know, in the past two years, in order to continuously expand the scale of the virtual world network and the virtual reality mobile network, open up the market, and attract more consumers and users.
Therefore, many of these projects are not profitable, and even will be in arrears. In this case, there will be such revenue, which shows the degree of gold absorption of these two major networks, as well as Lin Wei's excellent operation and management capabilities.
Seeing the smiles on Wu Hao and Zhang Jun's faces, Lin Wei continued with a smile: "We expect that next year's annual revenue will double on this basis, and its annual revenue will reach about 320 billion to 350 billion.
Among the revenues, the proportion of platform operating income is about 40%, and the remaining 60% is mainly in the entertainment and game industry.
In particular, the revenue from the sharing of virtual cinemas, the broadcast revenue of film and television dramas and music entertainment programs, the advertising revenue we place on the whole platform, and the revenue of self-developed games, etc.
In the future, the proportion of platform operating revenue will be further reduced, and film, television, entertainment, advertising and games will show explosive growth. As for the virtual cinema account sharing, it will remain in a stable growth stage.
After all, it was boycotted by physical theaters, so that many excellent movies still could not be released in virtual theaters in time. When it is launched for the second time, it has to compete with traditional Internet video websites, plus more expensive copyright fees, so the income is very limited.
This year, however, the situation has changed dramatically. In addition to some large-scale blockbuster films that rely more on traditional cinemas, more and more small-budget films and films by young directors will choose to be released in our virtual cinemas.
Therefore, although it is resisted by these physical theaters, our virtual theaters are still growing rapidly. According to our statistics in the first three quarters, the number of moviegoers in the first 300 million of our virtual theaters reached 16 billion.
Even if you exclude some fan-run groups that watch movies repeatedly and some malicious data, it is a very objective achievement. ”
Wu Hao nodded slightly when he heard this. He knows about the boycott of physical theaters, after all, the opening of this kind of virtual theater is a devastating blow to physical theaters.
With a convenient viewing experience, affordable prices and stunning visual images, virtual cinemas are becoming more and more popular among young people.
This undoubtedly made the physical theater chain feel the crisis, which naturally attracted their strong resistance and suppression. Even some theaters are pessimistic that Wu Hao's virtual theater will completely destroy the domestic theater industry and the film industry.
Of course, this has aroused opposition and criticism from some film and television practitioners, but more film and television practitioners have no reaction. For them, the overlord clause of the cinema chain has existed for a long time, and now there is such a strong competitor suddenly, which is very advantageous for them.
Moreover, the emergence of virtual theaters is equivalent to expanding some film release channels for them, which is very beneficial to them, so why should they oppose it.
