Chapter 018: The Wizard of Wonder

After gradually delegating power, Liu Shuo was indeed a lot easier. Look at the statement once a month to see how much your wealth has increased.

The two companies of Manfeng and Gilt were officially listed in Modu in January of 12 years, and publicly issued 10 million shares, each opening at about 50 yuan, and the limit was limited in less than five hours. That's not all, for the next half a month, every day was up and down, and a month later, it rose to more than 300 yuan, which was six times longer.

The employees of the two companies made a lot of money, and they got the original shares at the beginning of the issuance of the shares, and the price of the original shares was one yuan, which increased by 50 times as soon as they were listed! A month later, it grew by 300 times! And these employees could get at least 1,000 shares, which suddenly increased to 300,000 yuan.

But it was Liu Shuo who made the most money, because the original shares of these two companies were only issued with 100 million shares at the beginning, which is roughly equivalent to 2% of the shares. But after the stock rose, Liu Shuo successively issued 400 million, and about 18 billion in cash.

Although there are a lot of taxes to pay, there are still more than 10 billion.

But this is still only a small amount of money, because he still has 70% of the shares of two companies in his hands, and now the market value of these two companies has exceeded 100 billion, and they have completely become giants. And Liu Shuo has also become a strong contender for China's richest man.

After having the money, Liu Shuo became willful and directly acquired the digital field, spending a total of 800 million US dollars, and assuming the debt of the digital field. In fact, the debt in the digital field is not very large, a total of 51 million US dollars, but the interest is a lot, and the property in the digital field is about to be dragged down.

After the wholly acquired digital field, Liu Shuo will announce the privatization of the digital field. and injected $200 million into it to solve the financial deficit. In addition, Manying, Liujin and the digital field signed a cooperation agreement, so that the digital field can assist Manying in the production of animated films, and assist Liujin Company in the production of live-action films.

In this way, there is a new profit point in the digital field. It's just that employees in the digital field need to travel to China frequently. However, compared to being laid off, running more in China is actually nothing.

Liujin has already started to work on the live-action movie of "The Wizard of Wonderland", while Manying has already started the animated film project of "Sword Fairy".

Liu Shuo's three-step strategy of comics, animation, and film and television is really open.

In April, the upper part of "The Wizard of Wonderland" was released all over the world, because Manying did not have the ability to distribute overseas, and the revenue of this anime film was not very good. But the box office is good, especially in Southeast Asia, Japan and South Korea, which is about 70 million if it is counted as RMB. But the money that Comic Film Company can get is only less than 10 million, and many places are bought out and sold to each other.

The vast majority of the 70 million box office was contributed by comic fans of "The Wizard of Wonder". It's a pity that the comic market in Japan and South Korea is too developed, and "The Wizard of Wonderland" has only gnawed a small piece of the market.

In June, in the NBA Finals, the Rockets unfortunately lost to the Heat. Liu Shuo flew to the United States to visit the players and participated in the draft. Because the Rockets' draft pick was only his own, a No. 28 pick, Liu Shuo searched for a long time, and finally found a leak, and chose Draymond Green, a small forward who can play big forward, and a defensive giant.

The Warriors' Big Three were all brought over by Liu Shuo, and the Rockets completely replaced the Warriors as the strongest in the West. And the lineup is even more exaggerated than the Warriors of the Big Four later, and the Rockets are now the Big Five or even the Big Six!

In July, Liu Shuo returned to China, and the post-production of "The Wizard of Wonderland" was finally completed.

It seems that it should still be released on the National Day this year! I hope there are no good movies in this year's National Day file! But the result of the development of things is not as Liu Shuo expected, 12 years of National Day, there are still "Tai Chi 1", "Ring Messenger", "Tongque Terrace", "Second Exposure" and other box office guaranteed releases, if it were not for "The Expendables 2" and "Hurricane Rescue 2" were released at the end of the National Day, this year's National Day file will be more inspiring than last year.

Seeing such a lineup, Liu Shuo couldn't help but flinch a little. He thought about it for a while, and directly adjusted the schedule to the beginning of August, entering the summer file, and it was also a domestic protection month, there were no foreign blockbusters, and Liu Shuo was still very confident in fighting with domestic movies.

In this way, the second part of "The Wizard of Wonderland" is scheduled for August 10.

Because of the foundation of the previous step, the box office of "The Wizard of Wonderland" this time is also very good. Because it was during the holidays, Manfeng Cinemas added ten more cinemas this year, and after 6 hours of release on the 10th, it got a box office of 10 million.

The 11th and 12th were weekends, and the box office exploded directly, winning a total of 45 million in two days. In the second week, it won more than 80 million box office in the first week, more than 40 million in the third week, and 16 million in the fourth week.

By the time it was released, the box office successfully exceeded 200 million, reaching a box office of 208 million, an increase of 30 million compared with the first part, and once again recovered the cost.

After the domestic release, it began to be released worldwide. Because of the foundation of the first part, it was fully released worldwide in December, and the box office once again won 120 million, which also surpassed the first part.

The overseas sales buyout of the second part also reached 10 million, reaching 15 million.

However, the next part of this year's "The Wizard of Wonderland" is not the only movie invested by Liu Shuo, and the wolf warrior shot by Wu Jing will also be released on the National Day.

Wu Jing had already completed the training of the army at the end of last year, just in time for Li Wanqiu to give birth to a son. Liu Shuo didn't give Wu Jing anything to pick up the wind and wash the dust, but just asked people to send the bank card over and let him start shooting!

Wu Jing began to form a crew, because of the weather, he did not shoot in Jinling, but chose the Liangguang area, because the filming was a summer scene, and the Jinling generation was a little cold, after all, it was still very difficult to shoot a sweaty look wearing half a sleeve.

And most of the scenes in "Wolf Warrior" are in the border mountains, so let's go to the border mountains to shoot.

After four months of shooting, it was just in time for Liu Shuo to acquire the digital field, and post-production joined the digital field. On the one hand, it can be regarded as generating revenue in the digital field, and on the other hand, I also want "Wolf Warrior" to be completed as soon as possible.

The semi-National Day file on "Wolf Warrior" was released on September 15.

Just a few days before the release, the island buying incident broke out, which directly detonated the box office of "Wolf Warrior"! The wolf ambition of the little devil stimulated the patriotic feelings of the Chinese people, making the box office of "Wolf Warrior" go all the way up.

The box office dropped by 1.5 billion within half a month of release, and during the National Day, it won another 1 billion box office, directly knocking down all the movies in the National Day schedule.
