Chapter 846 Jiang Hao's Hobby
"Mr. Jiang, just now Ms. Zhou ordered the best package for Mia. Don't worry, Mia will receive the best care and will give birth to a beautiful and healthy pony next year." Xiao Bing said with a smile.
"Then please take care of it." Jiang Hao said.
Xiao Bing didn't seem to want to stop there, and said with a smile like a flower: "Mr. Jiang, Mia's set meal has been upgraded, don't you plan to upgrade Xiaohongzao's set meal too? Look, Xiaohongzao and Mia are a couple. , They need to communicate, now that Mia enjoys the high-end package, and if she wants to move to the high-end area, the couple will live separately, which is not good for them."
"There are also horses that can communicate. Mia enjoys the high-end set meal, but Xiaohongzao can't enjoy it. She eats ordinary forage. If she is depressed or unhappy, it will affect the physical and mental health of the horse."
Hearing Xiao Bingsha said these words in a serious manner, Jiang Hao laughed hahaha, and Xiao Bing was taken aback by the smile, thinking that he had said something wrong.
"You have a good mouth too, how much is the premium package?" Jiang Hao asked.
"120,000 yuan a year, plus other care and projects, should not exceed 200,000 yuan a year. Of course, this amount of money is definitely nothing to you." Xiao Bing said immediately.
Jiang Hao and Zhou Xinyan's car is a 5 million Bentley, so it shouldn't hurt to spend 200,000 a year to raise horses.
It costs 200,000 yuan to raise one horse, and 400,000 yuan to raise two horses. Ordinary people really can't afford it, but this money is really nothing to Jiang Hao now.
"Then order one for Xiaohongzao, as you said, it's always bad to separate their husband and wife, right." Jiang Hao said with a smile.
The smile on Xiao Bing's face grew stronger, "Hey, I'll take care of it for you two, don't worry, they will have specific nutritionists and horse trainers in the future, and they will definitely take care of Xiaohongzao and Mia in the future good."
After Manager Xiao left, Jiang Hao and Zhou Xinyan led their horses and walked on the grass. Jiang Hao suddenly said, "Xinyan, what do you think of this horse farm?"
Zhou Xinyan was taken aback, "Very good, I really like this place, it feels very peaceful and comfortable."
"Then tell me, how about we buy it?" Jiang Hao said.
Zhou Xinyan was surprised, "It will cost a lot of money to buy the racecourse, and it seems to be useless. If it is just to raise Xiaohongzao and Mia, such an investment is not worth it."
From an economic point of view, this is true. It only costs a few dollars to raise a few horses. It is really unnecessary to invest in a horse farm for them, but if it is not for Xiaohongzao and Mia, why would they need to buy a horse farm? Well, if we talk about investment, this is definitely not a good investment project. The investment is large, the income is small, and the return of funds is slow. It is even a matter of making money here.
Jiang Hao said: "I thought about building a horse farm near the company headquarters, but unfortunately the land given by the government is too small to plan. We have been here several times, and it feels like As you just said, it is quiet, comfortable, refreshing, and it is a very suitable place to relax, do you know why?"
Zhou Xinyan shook her head.
"Because of the earth's atmosphere, or the aura field here, here is a mountain depression, with hills and mountains on the back and sides, and a lake in front, with mountains on three sides and water on the other, where wind and energy are stored, it is most suitable for tombs, and it is also suitable for self-cultivation .”
Speaking here, Jiang Hao lowered his voice slightly, "And let me tell you, the boss who invested here certainly didn't make any money."
Zhou Xinyan asked in surprise, "How did you know that?"
"I figured out that this is a land of water, suitable for raising people, but not suitable for gathering money. In fact, it can be seen that there are only a lot of people on weekends and holidays. This is the case from Monday to Friday. Even if there are 500 people Members are raising it, think about how many employees there are here, and the annual maintenance costs are quite a lot, it is difficult to make a lot of money here." Jiang Hao said.
"Then you still buy it?" Zhou Xinyan asked in surprise.
Jiang Hao smiled, "I don't need it to gather money for me. We make money in other places, and this place is used to support people. We often come here, and this place will become our own in the future. The feeling of going home It's different again, isn't it?"
"Absorb the air here more, live here more, it's much better than living in the city, raising people and raising people can make people healthy physically and mentally, and it will reveal a sense of nourishment from the inside out, which is what any cosmetics have. Incomparable."
"And if it works well, we don't need to post money. Although this is not a place to gather money, it's no problem to be self-sufficient. We just need to buy it and operate it well. There is no need to invest in it."
Zhou Xinyan thought for a while, "Since you like it, then find someone to ask and try. I hope that boss won't open his mouth like a lion."
"Do whatever you want, there is no loss if you succeed or not," Jiang Hao said.
Not long after, Xiao Bing came over with two contracts and asked Jiang Hao to sign them. At this time, Zhou Xinyan was riding around the playground on a small red date, and Jiang Hao was sitting in the rest area drinking tea.
Xiao Bing handed over the contract respectfully, Jiang Hao glanced at it roughly, and then signed on it. As for the money, someone will contact Yulong Racecourse. Xiao Bing just wanted to leave, but Jiang Hao stopped her.
"Manager Xiao, wait a minute, let's have a chat."
Xiao Bing was taken aback, did the other party have thoughts about him?
Of course, she is very willing, but your girlfriend is by your side, is it so blatant.
Even if you are not afraid, my mother is also afraid. To be honest, she can't afford to offend anyone like this kind of financial backer who is worth hundreds of millions.
"Just tell me what Mr. Jiang told you." Xiao Bing responded with a smile.
"I want to ask about the situation at Yulong Racecourse?"
"The situation at Yulong Racecourse, what do you want to know?" Xiao Bing was slightly disappointed, it turned out that he had no idea about him.
"How big is Yulong Racecourse, and how much money did you invest in?" Jiang Hao asked.
"The area of the Yulong Racecourse is 11,000 mu. The three surrounding mountains you can see, as well as the small lake in front, are all on the site of the Yulong Racecourse. It is said that a total of 1.2 billion was invested at the beginning. I don't know the details. It's gone." Xiao Bing said.
These are public information, nothing bad to say.
"How is the business situation of Yulong Racecourse now?" Jiang Hao asked.
"I'm only in charge of the racecourse, and another manager is in charge of the resort."
"Just say what you know," Jiang Hao said.
Hearing this question, Xiao Bing was a little hesitant. This already involved the secret information of Yulong Racecourse. Of course, it is not considered top secret.
Thinking that the big customer of Yulong was on the opposite side, Xiao Bing thought for a while and said: "Actually, the business situation is not very ideal. The horse farm now fosters dozens of horses, and our own horse farm has dozens of horses. The salaries of the trainers and nutritionists are low. It’s quite high, and the monthly revenue-to-expenditure ratio really doesn’t leave much money.”
"As for the resort, the situation seems to be similar."
In the evening, Jiang Hao and Zhou Xinyan didn't go back, so they lived in the racecourse, and had a deep understanding of what peace and comfort are.
next morning,
The two stayed with Xiaohongzao and Mia for a while, doing morning exercises, and then drove back to the city to work.
Che Zhou Xinyan said: "Speaking of which, going back to the company from Yulong Mountain Villa is not much slower than going to the company from our house, and it will take ten minutes more by car at most."
"Go back and find someone to study it, and try to contact the owner of the Yulong Manor Racecourse to see if he is interested in selling it and at what price." Jiang Hao said.
"Okay, I'll contact you when I get back." Zhou Xinyan said.
Back at the company, Zhou Xinyan went to work on her own work, while Jiang Hao came to the technical room to continue researching his own film and television animation production software.
The film and television animation production software he is now making is Jiang Hao's hobby.
It has nothing to do with making money,
Just like some people like fishing, some people like playing basketball, some people like to pick their feet, they are all hobbies, and making animation is also Jiang Hao’s hobby, but it costs a lot of money. In fact, when Jiang Hao started the game company, he made money to support him. This hobby, that's why he sold most of the shares, regardless of his own holding, and also held a part of the shares of Tencent Film and Television.
Jiang Hao has already produced the "soul" production software. The characteristic of the soul is that its intelligence is higher than any known software on the market. Of course, it is far from the level of intelligence in "Wandering Earth". If you want to achieve That step requires Xiaoxin's intelligent support, but now Xiaoxin's intelligence level has just reached the elementary level, and has not reached the level of strong intelligence.
Even so, it is much better than current software.
Jiang Hao also collected countless known plug-ins through Xiaoxin, and asked Xiao Xin to re-edit them to form his own plug-in module group. Now there are more than 300 plug-ins that have been completed, which is more than enough to complete an animation work.
Of course, if you want to complete a work, the plug-ins used are often based on the actual situation. In many cases, the strength of a powerful special effects company is that they can edit the special effects plug-ins suitable for the film.
There are almost no such companies in China, and only Industrial Light & Magic, Pixar, Weta Digital, Sony Image, Double Negative Special Effects Company, Moving Image Special Effects Company, Buffin Special Effects Company, Mill Special Effects Company, etc. have this strength in the world.
Almost all of them are concentrated in Europe and America.
In fact, it is very difficult for special effects companies to make money. Even the current special effects companies are not very profitable, and many of them have closed down because they cannot make ends meet.
Do the current special effects companies in China make money? It is basically difficult to make money purely in film and television production. Many companies rely on advertisements to support them. The production of special effects in advertisements is short.
There are still many people shouting the slogan of the rise of domestic special effects, but the real situation is that most domestic special effects companies are working for foreign special effects companies, doing outsourcing work, that is, a group of coolies.
There is no shortage of production talents in China, and the software and hardware can be the same as those of foreign countries. However, in terms of pure digital hard science fiction, there is still a certain gap with Europe and the United States. Insiders believe that the gap is about 5-10 years.
There is another more important factor, that is, there are very few Chinese directors who really know how to make digital movies, and under the operation of the domestic capital market, they blindly go for traffic stars, which makes special effects production funds short, which is also an important reason. .
To put it simply, if you don’t have money to make a fart, if you don’t give money, the special effects company will naturally make 5 cents special effects for you.
I never thought that the special effects on Wang Dahammer's fist, "Frost Special Effects" and "Flame Special Effects", are not impossible. Anyway, many people have no lower limit. The road to the rise of China's special effects seems to have a long way to go, isn't it production, but in the director's conception.
So Jiang Hao is going to be a director after finishing the "soul" production software, starting with animation, and then working on special effects for movies.
Not a hobby!
Others spend hundreds of thousands for fishing, but I can't spend hundreds of millions to make cartoons!
