My Animation Era

Jiangchuan, Pleasant Goat Paradise.

Gu Miao hasn't been here for a long time. Since the company headquarters moved to the Animation Industrial Park, he rarely hangs out here.

It's summer vacation, and the park's passenger flow is overwhelming. The park authorities submitted relevant application reports on park road expansion and greening maintenance to the group's senior management. The investment is expected to exceed 500 million yuan.

When such a large sum of money was involved, Gu Miao couldn't just sign and approve it without knowing anything.

So, he wanted to come and take a look.

After arriving, he discovered that the situation described by the management was basically true. It was indeed time for [Jiangchuan·Pleasant Goat Paradise] to be expanded and upgraded.

"Mr. Gu, look here..."

When inspecting the Animation Street, the person in charge of the park management pointed to the planned parking spaces on both sides of the road and said: "It is now 8:02 in the morning, and the parking spaces are already full. Later tourists will either have to park farther away. Or stop illegally and randomly.”

"Well, I saw it."

Gu Miao frowned and said, "But isn't this your problem? You know there are so many tourists coming, why don't you designate more parking spaces?"

"I can't row, I really can't row!"

"Since the summer vacation, our park has received more than 300,000 tourists every day. If we assume that only 10% of these 300,000 tourists come by car, then there are still 30,000 cars."

The person in charge spread his hands and said helplessly: "This place is very expensive. Where can I get so many parking spaces for tourists?"

The shortage of parking spaces is one thing.

On the other hand, can you believe that you have to queue up for public toilets? Going to the toilet is similar to being crowded on a train during the Spring Festival travel rush, which makes many tourists complain.

"Also, the road design is too narrow. It is easy to cause congestion during peak passenger flow periods. It is also easy to cause stampede accidents when people are crowded."

Gu Miao glanced at the sidewalk.

It is indeed a bit narrow. The road itself is not very wide, and half of it is taken up by trash cans and tables, chairs and benches placed outside by shops.

"Okay, I understand."

Pleasant Goat Paradise has been profitable every year since its opening, contributing a lot of revenue to Wanbao headquarters.

Based on this premise, Gu Miao agreed in principle with the expansion proposal, but expansion could not be done blindly. A charter had to be drawn up, and bank financing had to be considered as well.

Five hundred million is probably not enough!

Although the construction standards of Pleasant Goat Park are not a super park like Disneyland, it is not considered a small park either.

Once the expansion project starts, the 500 million will definitely not be able to stop it, and it will have to be doubled at least.

This needs to be summed up carefully.

Although Wanbao's financial crisis at the end of last year has been resolved, to be honest, if you spend so much money in one go, you are definitely putting Gu Sanshui in trouble.

"It's not difficult to get bank financing. After all, our park's profitability has been good and the passenger flow is guaranteed."

Lao Zhang said with a smile: "Now the whole world knows that the holy land of the second dimension is in Jiangchuan. As long as you are interested in animation, you will become a visitor to our park."

You can definitely get a loan.

Not to mention that Wanbao Paradise is a high-quality asset, the name of Wanbao Group alone is enough for banks to lend without pressure.

The key is how much loan is appropriate?

If it is a full loan, there will be less pressure on the headquarters, and there will be no need to draw out too much cash flow at once. But Gu Miao prefers to borrow about 70% and does not want to bear huge debts.

"Don't forget, not only Pleasant Goat Paradise needs expansion, but Lao He also wants to expand the production of Wanbao Toys!"

Gu Miao said with a headache: "There are too many places to spend money. If you borrow a little bit here and a little bit there, the debt ratio will go up all of a sudden."

Worth tens of billions?

What a fuss!

That is the overall valuation of the company by the outside world, which is the value of the shares in Gu Miao's hands. Wanbao is not a listed company, and Gu Miao will not transfer equity, so these tens of billions are invisible and cannot be touched, and he can only enjoy it.

"Public company? Don't worry!"

"If nothing else happens, we will have a listed company this year." Lao Zhang said with a smile.

He was talking about Wanbao Video.

Gu Miao knew this because Wanbao Video was losing money every year and had no hope of making a profit. He had been promoting Wanbao Video's listing plan to make money from the stock market and reduce the burden on the group.

The plan went relatively smoothly.

The main reason is that the data provided by Wanbao and the slogans shouted out are too confusing, such as "the first stock in the second dimension" and "the favorite video website of young people in China".

The data is even more explosive.

What’s more, it has more than 76 million daily active users, and the average viewing time of each user on Wanbao Video has reached an astonishing 80 minutes. It has more than 37,510 exclusive animation copyrights...

Listen, how promising is this?

Not to mention, during the listing process, Wanbao Video continued to tie up with Wanbao Group, saying that you can't buy Wanbao Animation stock, but you can buy Wanbao Video, since they are all owned by the same company.

Investors were stunned for a moment after being deceived...

Wanbao animation?

I'm familiar with this! It is one of the top domestic animation companies, a leading company in Asian animation, and a top animation company in the world. It produces so many high-quality animation works every year, and is a true leader in the cultural industry.

Since Wanbao Video is highly tied to Wanbao Animation, and Wanbao Video itself has strong business capabilities, it is known as the number one animation video website, with advertising revenue alone exceeding 2 billion yuan last year.

OK! OK!

This is too awesome, why should I buy it so hard? If you miss this offering, you may regret it for the rest of your life!

Data injection and fraud?

Gu Miao wouldn't be able to do such a dishonorable thing. The data disclosed by Wanbao Video is basically true.

But there was one thing he didn't say.

That is to create an eye-catching report card for Wanbao Video website before it goes public. Wanbao Group has done its best.

Your ugly girl is going out on a blind date, so you have to dress her up carefully and make her look pretty in the photos, so as not to scare people away, right?

Otherwise, when investors hear this, they will realize that the annual losses are one billion or two billion, and the advertising expenses cannot make ends meet. Then who would dare to enter the market?

Anyway.

Wanbao Video is coming to the market!

As the first and possibly only listed company under Wanbao, Gu Miao is very interested in the funds that Wanbao Video can raise in the stock market.

After all, he really couldn't afford to feed this bottomless black hole, so he could only push it out and see if any kind-hearted people passing by would give him a hand.

Not to mention, he was really taken advantage of!

Moreover, the identity of this wrongdoer surprised the entire Wanbao Group, because the heavyweight investor who was interested in Wanbao Video was actually Penguin.

Ahem!

One second he was fighting for life and death, and the next second Penguin was waving money to help Gu Miao.

This situation can't help but make people sigh. Sure enough, in the face of interests, any face and hatred are fake. Businessmen are different.
