Chapter 177: Art Park Starts
Chapter 177: Art Park Starts
Later, when the artistic atmosphere and traffic increase, Gao You also plans to hold some art exhibitions, photography exhibitions, etc. on a regular basis, and develop surrounding businesses such as restaurants, cultural and creative stores, and handicraft workshops.
If it is successfully developed later, several idle factories nearby will be revitalized, and then art companies, film and television advertising companies, and various cultural and art-related industries will gradually gather here.
This place will become an art park.
"Boss, why don't you rent those factories now? Wouldn't that be making things easier for others?" Shen Yan looked at her notebook, which was full of plans for the future.
Although it was just a concept, she could imagine how prosperous and bustling this place would be in the future.
"Even if you eat the meat yourself, you should leave some soup for others. Only when everyone can make money can this place be revitalized." Gao You looked at the plan she had drawn on the paper.
It is good to have only one company dominate the market, but there is no end to the money to be made. Only when everyone makes money can we prosper together.
This plan is huge.
However, things should start small.
Gao You got a batch of printing machines from Jin Laoliu and hired several skilled craftsmen.
First, we set up a printing room in the factory.
I printed a lot of flyers and distributed them to major art schools after school started.
"Classmate, do you want a personal studio? We offer free rent for the first two months." Shen Yan stopped an art academy student who was out.
The student didn't want to stay at first, but after looking at the flyer stuffed into her hand, she took it.
She looked at it carefully and saw that it said that Gaofeng Culture and Art Media Company could provide free rent for the first two months and offer various large, medium and small art studio venues.
They range from the smallest of ten square meters to the largest of two hundred square meters.
The first two months are free of rent, and rent will be charged starting from the third month. There are three ways to rent.
The first one is to charge a low rent based on the area and take care of the rest yourself.
The second type charges a certain amount of rent and management fees and provides a space for creation, but does not provide exhibition and trading services for the works.
The third way is to sign a contract with their company, which provides free creative space, exhibition and trading services for works, and they charge a certain percentage of service fees.
She really needs a place to paint, and after she finishes her paintings, she also needs a place to store them.
She looked at the rent and found it was still affordable, and the first two months were free, which was very attractive.
"Is this really the price? And the first two are free?" She was afraid it was a scam.
"Of course. You can go to our place first and then decide." Shen Yan actively promoted her.
"Okay. I'll go take a look when I'm free." She put away the flyer.
Shen Yan distributed a lot of flyers in front of the gate of the Academy of Fine Arts, and the teachers did not miss any of them and actively promoted their products.
Quite a few teachers are interested.
Not every teacher and student can have their own personal studio in school.
Especially when creating some larger sculptures and paintings, they take up a lot of space.
Many people see the rent introduced above and think it is indeed not expensive, and it is not far from the school, and the first two months are free, so it doesn’t hurt to go and have a look.
On that day, many teachers and students came to visit the glass factory and beverage factory.
The factory was cleaned very well, there were not many people around, and it was very quiet.
The factory buildings and warehouses have also been cleaned out and are now empty. You can rent a space of any size you want.
It can be provided with compartments or open spaces.
Yu Silan and Xiong Dani, who received the students, took out copies of various documents and certificates and explained them to the teachers and students. They guaranteed that everything was legal and compliant.
Lawyer Qin also provides free consultation on various legal matters.
That’s right, Lawyer Qin also decided to hang out with Gao You.
She and several old classmates opened a legal consulting company in the glass factory, specializing in consulting services on patents and contracts.
A teacher from the sculpture department reserved a 100-square-meter studio on the spot.
She is currently preparing for her own solo sculpture exhibition.
There is no place to put a lot of works. The school and home are full.
This studio has finally solved her big problem.
The first two months are free, you can decide whether to rent it or not then.
And the rent is not expensive, she can afford it.
Under the witness of Lawyer Qin, the two parties signed the first contract.
"I want to rent a small place here and sell some handmade products from my hometown. Is that okay? But I have to go to classes during the week and don't have time to run the store." A girl said to Yu Silan.
She also studied sculpture and her family made wood carvings, but sales have always been limited.
She saw that there was also a custom-made wedding dress shop here.
I thought of opening a wood carving shop.
"Well, we are also planning to open some handmade shops. In this way, you can put your products in our shop for consignment sale.
If it is sold, we will charge a certain fee. If it is not sold, we will charge a small amount of rent every month. How about that? " Gao You's mind was also quick.
"That's great. I'll go back and discuss it with my family." The girl agreed happily.
When everyone heard this, they thought that this was a feasible approach and they could also consign their own works.
So, teachers and students who wanted to consign various artworks on the spot started asking about this.
Gao You, Xiong Dani, Shen Yan, and lawyer Qin absorbed opinions from all sides and set up a product art consignment store.
Within a few days, several personal studios in the beverage factory were rented out.
Art shops and handicraft shops that sell the glass factory’s own works and local specialties on consignment have also been opened.
The speed at which news spreads among college students is still very fast.
In less than a month, the news that the glass factory was setting up an art park spread to all major art schools in Beijing, and in turn affected other schools.
Gao You also bought a lot of second-hand computers and accessories from Jin Laoliu.
This batch of goods was purchased by Jin Laoliu from a second-hand dealer in Formosa.
Dozens of monitors, computers, and a bunch of miscellaneous accessories, both good and bad.
Jin Laoliu knew that these things could only be put to best use in Gao You's hands.
So, the two of them discussed forming a partnership and set up BBK Electronic Technology Company in the glass factory.
Gao You asked people to find several computer science students at Peking University and Tsinghua University, especially selecting female students first. Anyone who could build a computer would receive a cash reward.
Of course, if you want to use these computers, it is not impossible, but you need to participate in the company's software development.
There is no limit to the type of software, as long as you can produce a finished product, you can cooperate with the company.
Once the product is on the market, you can get dividends. Of course, you can also choose to sell it outright to the company.
This is undoubtedly a good way to make money for some students from poor families.
After all, there are relatively few ways to make money with this major in the market now, and many companies don’t even have computers.
Gao You also cooperated with the publishing house and obtained the translation and publishing rights of "The Guide" from the original author.
