Chapter 43
It was another few days of ocean drifting, and Zhang Lie was a little tired of this kind of life.
Of course, sharks in the sea also suffered. Zhang Lie obviously felt that during this time, the number of encounters with sharks became less and less.
But even so, Howard and Quinn had a lot of fun. Especially Cui Xueli's cooking skills, completely conquered the two of them.
But fortunately, Howard didn't have any interest in Cui Shirley, he only played exciting, shark fishing is his favorite, especially the moment when the hook pierced the shark's head, he would always scream excitedly.
Zhang Lie sometimes has to wonder if this kid is ** in his heart. How can it be such a bloody picture, his adrenaline always seems to be secreted in large quantities.
However, it doesn't matter if these are any, Zhang Lie's force value is much higher than that of this kid. If he really wants to be a **, he will directly use him as bait and throw him in the sea to feed the sharks.
Back on shore again, several people have become good buddies who almost don't talk about anything. Especially Howard, who pestered Zhang Lie every day, saying that he wanted a yacht like this.
even told Zhang Lie that as long as Zhang Lie built him such a yacht, he would tailor a luxury plane for Zhang Lie.
Although Lockheed mainly produces fighter jets, they are also definitely strong in the field of transport aircraft. The aircraft produced by their company will definitely not have any problems with safety.
This business can be done, but what do you use to produce yachts now.
The tripartite cooperation in the production of yachts has also run into trouble. Howard wanted to join, but his identity was too sensitive. And this company still has to be built in China, which is even more problematic.
While it's a shame he can't join the company, Howard says he's willing to help technically.
The weather gradually turned cooler, and in a blink of an eye, he had been in the United States for nearly a month. Combined with the previous days of drifting at sea, it came and went for almost three months in total.
Everything had been taken care of, and Zhang Lie felt that it was time to go back. Although I have called Liu Mengying every day, the two have been in love for a short time, and they haven't seen each other for three months, and they can't talk about it.
Yelena's new film is halfway finished, because it is a big production, almost all the departments are industry elites, but even so, the progress of the whole film is very slow, and the director requires every detail to be perfect.
The number of meetings with Elena is limited, and when she learned that Zhang Lie was really leaving, Elena still asked for a two-day price despite the director's ugly face.
The parting is imminent, and the two of them are full of melancholy in their hearts. There are no words, only hysterical love, it seems that only in this way can we feel each other's existence.
"Yelena, the director is on fire again, don't be late tomorrow!"
When it was quiet, Elena received a call from her agent. When he came, he was alone, and his agent stayed in the crew to deal with some things related to the crew. When she received the call from her agent, Elena was in a good mood, but when she heard the content of the call, she was a little depressed.
"What's wrong?" Zhang Lie saw that Yelena answered the phone, and it became like this.
"It's nothing, it's a matter of the crew, the agent asked me not to be late tomorrow!" Elena didn't say it, in fact, don't look at the crew is huge, but now the people of the whole meter know that their crew is not well funded. In just one month, nearly sixty percent of the 100 million budget has been spent. You know, this is only half of the shooting, although the cost of special effects in the later stage is not too high, but it will also cost thirty or forty million, plus publicity expenses. It was clear that the film was not well funded. However, the film companies that originally invested in it are unwilling to make additional investments, and they must find new investors, otherwise the film is likely to be shelved.
At this time, the entertainment program of the TV station happened to talk about this crew, and even said that Yelena had left the crew, and the movie was likely to be temporarily suspended due to insufficient investment, etc.
Yelena was also quite embarrassed, she didn't expect that as soon as she left the crew, the powerful reporters already knew. Fortunately, they don't know where they went, otherwise the whole world would definitely be a scandal between her and Zhang Lie.
"Did the filming go wrong?" Zhang Lie looked at Yelena and asked.
Yelena didn't want to say more, but Zhang Lie asked, just nodded. But these have little to do with her, she is just an actress, although she also has a box office share in the later stage, but her current fame is pitifully small. She mainly earns a fixed salary now, and whether the movie is released or not is just to increase her fame.
Zhang Lie doesn't have much money now, and his little money may not necessarily be as rich as Elena's net worth. But he wants to help do something, not to mention that this is an investment, if the movie is a big hit, he can also earn it back. It's just that how to make money, Zhang Lie has a headache for a while.
"How much more do you need, I'll figure it out for you!"
Zhang Lie hopes that Yelena's film will be released, not shelved and suspended. Of course, the most important thing is that Zhang Lie also hopes that he can spend a lot of money for women like Quiel, but after thinking about it, it seems that he doesn't have that capital at all.
Suddenly, Zhang Lie thought of the dozen tons of gold in his yacht, but these golds didn't seem to be much money when converted into US dollars.
"It's estimated at 4ooo million, Zhang, are you willing to invest in this movie? In fact, the production of this movie is so good that I believe it will be able to recoup the cost. The first thing that Elina thought about was whether the money would pay for itself. Because the investment in the film is too large, she can't guarantee to make a lot of money, but if she wants to use the production team of this movie, there is no problem in keeping the capital. This is also why major companies are reluctant to invest, because in their opinion, after the release of this movie, unless there is a miracle and the movie is a big sale, it will not make money or lose money. In this case, how can they continue to invest, they might as well invest this money in some movies with small costs and may be big sellers, so that they can make more profits.
"Well, I want to think about it!"
In any case, these dozen tons of gold must be disposed of. I have to find Quinn for this matter, he himself is a member of the Western Consortium, and although the banking industry of the Western Consortium is not the most proficient, it is not small.
Contacting Quinn directly, and learning that Zhang Lie had more than a dozen tons of gold in his hands, Quinn immediately became interested, saying that as long as this batch of gold was deposited in their western bank, he would be guaranteed to give him the maximum interest rate.
A dozen tons of gold, for a country, may be nothing, but for an individual, it is a huge wealth. If it's just gold against the dollar, it's really not much. But this batch of gold is in the hands of bankers, and the funds it can leverage may be dozens of times the value of gold.
So hearing that there was such a large amount of gold, Quinn could still be calm. Hurriedly found Zhang Lie, saying that the Bank of the West was looking forward to this batch of gold, as long as the gold was temporarily stored here, or even temporarily lent to the Bank of the West, the bank would definitely give Zhang Lie the greatest discount.
Only then did Zhang Lie understand that gold and money are not simply exchanged one-on-one. But it has such a role, for gold, Zhang Lie is not so enthusiastic. With the presence of mining ships, gold will continue to be obtained.
In order to get the maximum profit, this batch of gold was handed over to the Bank of the West. Zhang Lieshun got the highest level of customer level of the Bank of the West, and directly paid 40 million yuan from the Bank of the West, and in terms of interest rate, the small amount is almost negligible compared to his investment.
It was also at this moment that Zhang Lie felt a little tyrannical. Money, you really can't call it money. As long as there is a good project and the funds are not too large, he can completely find the Western Bank to borrow, and the price he needs to pay is very low.
With money and the relationship with Yelena, the great director Lucas flew directly to San Francisco, and he was naturally very happy about Zhang Lie's investment. Like Elena said, a complete tyrant. Obviously an amiable old man.
Investing in movies is a very common thing in the United States. With the help of a professional lawyer, the two parties entered into a contract, and the 4ooo was officially credited to the crew's account.
After everything was done, Zhang Lie finally embarked on the journey back to China. Although it is still a vast sea, this time, Zhang Lie's mood is much better, and he desperately wants to go back and meet the people who have been thinking about it for a long time.
After the yacht left the sphere of influence of the United States, it directly changed into the skin of the Canglong-class submarine, sailed on the bottom of the sea at a very fast speed, and rushed towards China.
