My 1999

The next day, Xu Liang came to the New Dream 798 office area.

Secretary Lu Hui came over quickly.

"Mr. Xu, this is the admission list we received from major art academies after inspecting our art academy classes."

Since Xu Liang was admitted to Central Academy of Fine Arts without examination, New Dream has invited admissions teachers from eight major art academies across the country to visit Shanghai and Beijing.

Now there are finally results.

Xu Liang took it and took a look.

"Thirty-eight people? More than half, right?"

Lu Hui nodded and said: "However, there is a high probability that less than half of the students will actually be admitted without taking the exam."

Xu Liang understood what he meant.

Students who have obtained exemption quotas from the eight major art academies such as Lumei and Ximei, which are relatively low in the rankings, have no problem taking the exams at Central Academy of Fine Arts based on their true strength.

Therefore, there is a high probability that they will not accept the exemption, but will choose to go to a better school.

Only the three top art academies, Central Academy of Fine Arts, National Academy of Fine Arts, and National Academy of Fine Arts, are exempt from examinations and are truly valuable and attractive.

"Send this list to our official website immediately."

"yes."

"Any thing else?"

"Regarding the annual meeting, Mr. Teng plans to rent the warehouse next to it. After simple decoration, the annual meeting will be held nearby, and all teachers and students will participate. The prizes will be canceled and replaced with annual meeting gifts for each person."

Xu Liang took it and took a brief look.

"Just let Mr. Teng make the decisions on these matters. There is no need to notify me."

Teng Huaming is the CEO and is in charge of corporate development. He is now mainly responsible for the strategic decision-making of New Dream, regardless of such small things.

Lu Hui nodded.

"Is there anything else?"

"there is none left."

"Go ahead. Call Mr. Teng here."

"yes."

Lu Hui turned around and left. Not long after, Teng Huaming in a black suit knocked on the door and walked in.

"Mr. Xu, did you call me?"

"sit."

Xu Liang pointed to the sofa in front of him.

After Teng Huaming sat down, Xu Liang poured him a cup of tea.

"Thanks."

"How's it going? Do you feel comfortable with taking charge of the company?"

"It was a bit confusing at first, but now I'm basically used to it, and Mr. Li really helped a lot."

Mr. Li is COO Li Yan.

"That's good. I have an idea, please take a look at it in detail."

"You say."

Xu Liang organized his words, "Do you know QQ?"

"You know, it's the most popular instant messaging software in China right now."

"QQ has a group function. I plan to establish QQ groups for the parents of our New Dream students based on regions to communicate information in a timely manner, bring our New Dream closer to the parents of our students, and also play a role in publicity.

Just like this time, if we set up a group and send the list of 38 people who are exempted from the test, it will be a good publicity.

The impression that our new dream belongs to a top art training institution has been subtly established in the minds of many parents.

If their children have good grades in the future, they will become our voluntary promoters. As long as there is one such person, it will be more effective than a hundred of our sales staff. "

Teng Huaming nodded in agreement.

"I will go back and explain, and I will immediately ask the administrative department to separate a QQ group department."

"Remember, each group is cross-managed by at least three people from our company. In addition to updating our company's teachers and students, advertising and arbitrary charges in the name of the company are prohibited in the group."

"I see."

“Also, starting next year, we will officially launch art training business for children and primary schools, focusing on the four first-tier cities.

Don’t start too quickly. First, summarize experience and lessons, recruit and train qualified teachers and administrators. "

Teng Huaming nodded, "I will go back and lead each department to prepare a plan, formulate a detailed timetable and development plan, and submit it to you for review."

"OK."

Teng Huaming continued: "One more thing, IDG and Yingke have been asking us about our Series A financing. Do you think we should reply to them?"

Xu Liangdao: "Has the layout of our New Dream Art Training Center been completed?"

"According to the original plan, we now have our branches in first- and second-tier cities across the country, as well as in more economically developed third-tier cities, with a total of 34 branches. Currently, there are a total of 8,793 students of various types."

"Already so many? It seems that CCTV News helped us a lot." Xu Liang said with a smile.

"It was very effective. In less than a month, the number of our students doubled. Mr. Xu's pop-up plan saved us at least 100 million in publicity expenses."

"It's just an unexpected surprise." Xu Liang waved his hand, "If it develops for another six months, how many students do you think our training center can have?"

"According to our development trend over the past year, there is a high probability that there will be about 10,000 to 12,000 people."

Xu Liang frowned slightly and said, "It's a bit less."

"It's a bit small. Our company's students basically come from high schools in medium and large cities, and it's difficult to reach rural high schools with more students.

It is also difficult for them to afford the monthly training fee of 600 yuan.

Moreover, we have included most cities with relatively good economic development. If we continue to expand the New Dream Art Training Center, it will be difficult for us to experience explosive growth.

According to our survey, New Dream will increase with the development of domestic economy, more universities will establish art disciplines, and the number of students will increase by about 20% every year.

Moreover, this growth can last for five or six years at most, then decline and eventually level off. "

Xu Liang nodded in agreement. He did art training in his previous life and knew the development patterns of this industry very well.

In about six or seven years, the number of art candidates for the College Entrance Examination will exceed one million, and then reach a peak of 1.1 million in about ten years, and then decline as competition becomes more intense.

The vast majority of the more than one million art candidates are studying in their respective high school art classes, and those who can actually afford to enroll in training classes may only be one-tenth, or even less.

This one-tenth also faces competition from other art training classes.

Only about one-twentieth actually fell into the hands of New Dream.

Therefore, Teng Huaming's calculation is generally correct.

"So you are inclined to accept financing and develop early childhood and primary school art training as soon as possible?"

"Yes. This market is much larger than college entrance examination art training. If we enter earlier and establish influence, we can succeed earlier."

Xu Liang nodded and thought for a while.

"Then we will officially start financing negotiations in half a year."

Teng Huaming nodded and said with a smile: "I am going to hold the annual meeting on January 15th. Would you like Mr. Xu to attend it together?"

"Of course. It's the company's first annual meeting after all, so I can't miss it."

"Then prepare another show, sing a song?"

"Haha, no problem."

Xu Liang readily agreed. Although his singing was not as good as those of professionals, he was at least passable.
