Chapter 331
Regardless of the new projects coming one after another, there are actually still a few.

On average, Hollywood produces a total of three to four hundred films and TV series every year. If Suri wants to grab food from the eight major film companies and TV stations, he must provide enough popular resources, and it is best to manage them in large quantities.

Take the current trend of Netflix entertainment.

At least 15 TV series need to be produced in a year to ensure that no matter which season, the audience has three or four TV series to follow at the same time, so as to avoid not choosing to renew their membership because they feel bored or waste money.

Now, there are only two TV series showing at the same time.

Many members only like one of them. When it ends like the first season of "The Walking Dead", many people are likely to stop coming in a short time. The data fluctuation is a bit large, which will inevitably have an impact on performance.

European and American users have just begun to adapt to online TV, and many platforms are competing for the market. They are at the most critical moment.

That's why Suri chose to plan "Gossip Girl" in advance, and also produced a low-cost adaptation of the new drama "My Wife Turns into a Elementary School Student" in an attempt to expand her advantage in the hugely populated Asian market.

The company's development speed is beyond everyone's expectations.

In the past half year, it has accumulated more than 1000 million paying members, and the plan formulated last year has fallen behind.

He plans to film "Breaking Bad," "The Big Bang Theory," "House of Cards" and "Desperate Housewives" in one go next year.

At that time, depending on the situation, we will decide whether to release "Game of Thrones" and make plans in advance.

These shows can basically last for more than five seasons, along with "The Walking Dead", "The Vampire Diaries", etc. After planning them all, you shouldn't have to worry about them in the next few years.

All hands are king.

If you want to overturn traditional TV stations, the problem is probably not big.

As the director of the content production department, Suri needs to grasp the overall direction, rather than focusing on one drama like a director or actor.

This makes him seem relaxed, but in fact he is not busy at all.

Use your words, make the most correct decisions, and manage the entire department decently.

Many senior executives are ambitious and now expect to receive equity rewards. Anyone who dares to slack off is their enemy.

Compared with their workload, Suri, who only works an average of 30 minutes a day, seems so out of place.

under these circumstances.

The board of directors of Netflix Entertainment has decided to give Suri a salary increase.

The company's latest valuation has exceeded US$70 billion, making it the most dazzling dark horse in Silicon Valley.

Considering the importance of the content production department, board members agreed that the annual salary of more than 200 million US dollars is far less than Suri's contribution.

In September, nearly one year after Suri's "employment", he needs to re-sign an agreement. His annual salary will be significantly increased to US$1000 million, and he will be given new bonuses, stock options and other rewards.

According to the stepped reward method discussed by the board of directors.

If Netflix Entertainment's market value exceeds US$200 billion when it goes public, Suri will receive approximately US$6 million worth of stock awards. If the company's market value exceeds US$500 billion, this number will soar to around US$30 billion.

When she learned the result, secretary Amanda was also shocked. While accompanying Suri out for brunch, she drank coffee and asked:
"It turns out they don't want you to leave so much. If they didn't know better, they would have thought you were the CEO." Su Rui was not surprised by this result.

He has three seats on the board of directors, and the news has been reported to him long ago.

Eating beef fried noodles, Suri continued:

"You can do the job of Terence CEO. I am indeed the most indispensable soul of the entire company."

"The shareholders of Netflix's parent company are very bad, and they are making a lot of noise. They are trying to trick me. Based on the shares I hold, these rewards will be directly reduced by half. Taking the money that originally belonged to me, Give myself benefits."

"In addition, if I really pushed the company's stock price to 500 billion U.S. dollars, they would have laughed like crazy. They would have missed this reward from me, so the vote would be passed quickly. This is to persuade me to list Netflix Entertainment as soon as possible. Only in this way can they feel at ease."

No matter how high the valuation is, it will never be as good as the true market value, which can make shareholders put their hearts back in their stomachs.

Despite Suri's good performance, many people still have doubts and worry that the quality of TV series produced in the future will not be as good as this year's series.

Under this situation, some investors are already thinking about listing Netflix Entertainment. When the time comes, they can advance or retreat, and have the opportunity to maximize profits.

As early as May and June, other directors proposed to start the listing process as soon as possible, but in the end Su Rui rejected it directly with the excuse that "it is not yet time".

joke.

With a valuation of US$40 billion, if 20% of the equity is released during the IPO, it can only raise US$8 million.

Then when the valuation reaches US$200 billion, if the same shares are released, the initial public offering will yield US$40 billion.

After making so much money in one go, and the company's books are not short of funds, Su Rui certainly will not make fun of his own interests for the sake of others.

With the development momentum of Netflix Entertainment, a market valuation of only US$200 billion does not seem to be a big deal. If you are lucky enough, it may be reached by the end of next year or 2011.

When thinking of this, Suri continued to add:
"This time, the cap is only set at 500 billion US dollars, which feels a bit low. Please help me urge and make equity incentive plans of 1000 billion, 2000 billion, and 3000 billion US dollars, and the time will be set at 10 years. Well, every time the corresponding market value is unlocked, give me the equity in batches."

Secretary Amanda was stunned and asked Suri:
"Are you kidding or are you serious? Even Google's market capitalization is not as high as $2000 billion."

Su Rui almost choked on the fried noodles. She patted her chest, drank some water to moisten her mouth, and said with a smile:
"You can have no confidence in yourself, but you can't have no confidence in me. Google has a lot of users, and we have a lot of users, and every user of Netflix Entertainment can also provide higher revenue."

"I know this. I'm just worried that when the news is released, you will be scolded. Those in the investment market are not as tolerant to you as your fans." Secretary Amanda said.

Suri had a different view, shaking his head and saying:
"This can prove my confidence in it. In addition to equity, it can also help me get some physical rewards. For example, when Netflix Entertainment's market value exceeds 1000 billion U.S. dollars, it will help me buy a supercar worth no less than 4 million U.S. dollars." yacht."

He always felt that it was not practical to let Suri spend his own money to buy a superyacht.

If the company pays him as a reward and allows him to use it for life, then it doesn't matter.

Moreover, this kind of gambling news can easily arouse people's discussion and attention, which is equivalent to advertising for Netflix Entertainment around the world.

In the long run, the value is likely to be much more than a superyacht, and the board of directors are smart people and have no reason to reject such a flashy option incentive package.

Because in the eyes of many people, this is almost impossible to accomplish.
