Chapter 281: Donate It!

"If Peter Parker could make $300 million a year, what do you think you'd spend?" Li Jie asked Peter and Gwen seriously as he sipped the black tea that Lan had just brewed.

And Peter Parker, who was drinking black tea with milk and white sugar, heard Li Jie's question, and squirted out a mouthful of milk tea. Poof~!Milk tea is spraying everywhere, and Li Jie, who happened to be sitting opposite Peter, would have been tricked if he hadn't reacted quickly.

But the freshly cleaned dining table and tablecloth were in vain. The traces of milk tea are still difficult to wash. "My white oak dining table and my newly bought printed tablecloth. ”

Peter recovered from his surprise just now, he looked at the table that had been soiled by his own milk tea, and picked up a tablecloth from the side and wiped it up. At the same time, he wiped and said, "If I can make 300 million dollars a year, let alone a table and a tablecloth." I'll just change you to a big house. ”

Li Jie sighed twice: "Before the money arrives, you are already as generous as Tony Stark." ”

Peter laughed twice, he thought Li Jie was joking. Because it's 300 million dollars, not 300,000, not 3 million. Any ordinary person who usually keeps his pocket money within $3,000 a month would not think this is true.

Peter Parker's income from Spider-Man's rights and the Horizon Foundation's salary (this part is not high, because Peter is the leader of the [Parker Particle] experiment, which generally lives on research funds. But Parker doesn't eat his own research funds. ), and now it has entered the high-yield group. But most of Spider-Man's royalties were donated by Peter to several non-profit orphanages and church schools in New York City. A portion was also given to Frank as a fund for the activities of the Night's Watch. The rest is to pay for your own tuition and fees, as well as to cover your own family's expenses. After all, Uncle Ben is getting older, and the mortgage on the house has not been paid off.

So many times Peter still maintained a relatively simple life. The rights to Spider-Man are indeed operating, but they are not yet as successful as Iron Man.

Although the best selling in the comics is Spider-Man, because Spider-Man's style is pleasing. But when it comes to peripheral operations and copyright operations, Iron Man is the best and most profitable.

Think about it, Spider-Man has a set of movable toys, and the last one with different proportions is over. Because they all look exactly the same, who would have nothing to do with a bunch of identical Spider-Man's figurine toys to keep at home? Except, of course, the iron fans.

In addition to toys, Spider-Man has not yet released movies and games, and his limelight is very popular in New York City, and it is also considered a culture in the United States. But how many people buy it abroad? I don't think there are a few. It is necessary to wait for Hollywood to release a big movie of Spider-Man, and the copyright value of Spider-Man will be doubled.

But look at Iron Man! This guy has a life-size statue figure that can produce Tony Stark, and there are all kinds of Iron armor. From the main model to a variety of miscellaneous aircraft, mass production machines, engineering and so on. There are dozens of them. And it looks like it's increasing.

Then these mechs come out in different ratios, from one to twelve to one to nine to one to six and one to four. It's a leek pit! There's not enough money to fill this pit.

Then the material can also be divided into ordinary plastic, alloy die-casting and so on. In the division of movable toys and assembled models, there are also static figurines and so on.

Iron Man peripherals are simply the king of Marvel's peripheral operations! Although the popularity is not the highest, Iron Man's earning power is the most powerful.

Whether it's Tony Stark himself or his comic book characters, rich people are rich people! Even going out around makes more money than everyone else combined.

This level of insane earning is breathtaking to others. It is not an exaggeration to say that an Iron Man's authorization can save a toy factory, because there are dozens of different models of armor, and some only need to be repainted and repainted, even if the new model is sold for money (cheating).

So Peter Parker's rights can now get millions of dollars, but hundreds of millions of dollars? He still thinks Li Jie is joking with him. But he heard that Marvel was working with Blizzard on a new game. Maybe his copyright can be exchanged for a sum of money? And then Li Jie used this to joke with himself?

Peter and Lee Jay were joking, but Gwen didn't think much of it. Because she could clearly hear a more solemn tone from Li Jie's tone. And then Li Jie said to Peter, "If I can make $300 million a year, let alone a table and a tablecloth." I'll just change you to a big house] This sentence is a bit noncommittal.

So Gwen asked Li Jie with some uncertainty, "Wait, Jason." Are you telling the truth? $300 million? The Spider-Man movie is about to start? And you're going to give Peter all the proceeds from the rights? Won't Marvel do that affect normal operations?"

It was the most plausible possibility Gwen could think of. As for the rest, Gwen can't think of it yet. She couldn't figure out why Peter was making $300 million a year.

If Hollywood's super movies are running well, it is normal for them to harvest more than 100 million yuan as a major shareholder.

But to give all the proceeds to Peter, wouldn't that help him do his day job?

So Peter immediately realized when he heard Gwen's statement that it couldn't be like this: "Listen to Jason. It's a company, and a serious company needs to be profitable. You only have to pay for my part. I won't take more. ”

Peter was very sincere and a good friend. But Li Jie laughed dumbly. This couple's thoughts are a little different from the real event.

Li Jie didn't immediately throw out the fact that Peter's [Parker Particles] could make a lot of money. Peter was also unaware of this. Because now [Parker Particles] are still in the stage of crazy money burning. Tony's nearly $100 million investment has been burned.

Li Jie continued to ask: "Let's just make small talk, we haven't discussed some very nonsensical topics for a long time. I just wanted to ask, what are you going to do with $300 million? Gwen, you might as well join the discussion with that. ”

Peter laughed when he heard Li Jie say this: "Three hundred million dollars a year? Well, if there were three hundred million dollars a year, I would definitely buy a super big and super luxurious house." There will be thirty rooms, one for my lab equipment. One for my spider suit, and then there's a figurine for Captain Rogers. There's also a room dedicated to playing games!"

Peter Parker said these nonsensical and somewhat childish words. Gwen couldn't help but hold her forehead and didn't want to look at him. At this time, Lan also walked into the restaurant, and she gently put her hand on Li Jie's shoulder.

"Well, normal needs. Li Jie's behavior and behavior like this are normal: "But unless you go to Los Angeles and buy a house in Beverly Hills, or get a manor on Long Island." Otherwise, few houses will cost you $300 million. The house you ask for is usually one or two million dollars. You still have more than $200 million, remember that's an annual income. ”

PETER THOUGHT FOR A MOMENT, "OH MY GOD, IT'S TERRIBLE TO SPEND SUCH A LARGE SUM OF MONEY, HOW CAN I SPEND IT? EVEN IF I BUY ALL THE GAMES ON STEAM, THERE ARE STILL A LOT OF THEM." And those games will keep me entertained until hell!"

Gwen couldn't help but pat Peter on the shoulder, "Can you just think about playing? Can't you think about anything else?"

Peter thought for a moment, "How about buying all the bags and shoes that are trending for you this season? I think it would cost tens of millions of dollars." ”

Arashi couldn't help but laugh when she heard Peter say this: "In that case, you will find that your big house of thirty rooms will soon be filled, and you will need to buy a bigger house." ”

Peter responded, "Then the money will be spent faster." Is this a stimulus to the U.S. economy?"

Gwen patted Peter helplessly: "What do I need so many bags and shoes for? I'm not a girl who is overly materialistic." And I don't think I need to use your money to buy me clothes either. Seriously, I'd be happy if you gave me a dress or two or two as a gift. But if you give me dozens of pieces and a hundred, I'll only want to stay away from you. ”

Gwen looked at Peter and said, "Why don't you want something meaningful? With so much money, it's only a small part of it that needs to be used in your personal life. Even if you only have 10 million dollars a year, your life is rich enough to make most people feel envious and even jealous. ”

Peter thought seriously for a moment and nodded, "It does make sense. If I leave a part. For example, 10 million or 30 million dollars is my personal expenses, and I feel that much of it can be donated to do something meaningful. I think that's pretty good. ”

Li Jie tilted his head to look at Peter and asked, "Are you sure?"

Peter smiled, "I'm sure!"
