Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Youngest Billionaire

Like "50 First Loves", "Shutter Island" has still not been introduced by the mainland, but almost all the mainstream media in China have reported on this movie, such as the movie channel's "Movie People" column also made a special introduction to Xiansen, titled: The rapid rise of the new generation of Hollywood filmmakers.

In the praise of these media, director Xiansen became an idol in the hearts of mainland fans for a while, a Chinese director who conquered Hollywood, which sounds exciting.

In the market, smuggled DVDs, burned CDs, and various commodities emerge in an endless stream, and many in the name of the exclusive authorization of "Shutter Island", Li Boxian bought a bottle of mineral water from "Shutter Island".

After watching the premiere of the movie, Li Boxian hurried back to the mainland, "Star Weekly" was founded in February this year, because the popularity is too low, and there is not much entertainment gossip, so the circulation has not been very high. As one of the reporters and founders of the magazine, Li Boxian thought of many ways to increase sales, but the effect was not very ideal. By chance, he came across the name Mister Sen in a piece of news on the Internet.

It's a strange name, a combination of an abbreviation and a noun, and the person who gave it must have never had English in elementary school. After laughing at the name, Lee continued to look at the news, and to his surprise, the somewhat nondescript guy actually made a movie that grossed more than $200 million worldwide.

What is this sacred? Driven by curiosity, Li Boxian deliberately went to find out about Mr. Sen, this check doesn't matter, what surprised him even more was that the director was actually a Chinese national, that is to say, this is a Chinese.

There are not many introductions to Mister Sen on the Internet, and after reading many pages, it is just a few repetitive pieces of news, but Li Boxian sees an opportunity in this, an opportunity for the rise of "Star Weekly". After learning that Mister Sen's new movie "Shutter Island" will be released in the United States on October 15, Lee Boxian went through visas, passports and various immigration procedures early, and then rushed to Los Angeles the day before the movie premiered.

Originally, according to his plan, after watching the premiere, he could interview Mister Sen by the way, in his mind, although Mister's first film "50 First Loves" was very successful, but the fame of this Chinese director should not be very big, and he would definitely not refuse an interview invitation from media reporters, but the reality is very shocking, and Li Boxian's abacus is completely wrong.

There were so many media reporters who came on the day of the premiere that he didn't even have the qualifications to ask questions, who told him not to make an appointment. Later, Lee learned that two events occurred in the United States from September to October, in addition to the 911 incident that brought panic to the world, there was also an animated short film called "Hope" that moved the whole United States. And the director of this animated short film is Mister Sen.

Seeing that the interview was in vain, Li Boxian did not hesitate, rushed to the airport that night, and returned to the mainland overnight. Despite the discomfort of jet lag, Li Boxian still wrote a film review related to "Shutter Island" as soon as possible, and made a special issue to publish it as soon as possible.

The first issue of Star Weekly magazine had Mistersen's portrait on the cover, and the content was all related to Mistersen. You must know that in the past two days in the United States, Li Boxian also collected a lot of American newspapers' introductions to Mister Sen.

As soon as the special issue came out, it didn't bring a particularly big response at first, but as the box office myth led by "Shutter Island" in North America broke box office records over and over again, more and more media mentioned Chinese director Mister Sen. For mainlanders who like movies, this is a very unfamiliar name, and many people began to look for ways to understand the director, and it was at this time that the Mister special issue of "Star Weekly" entered the eyes of these people, which is the only magazine in the country with the most detailed report on Mistersen.

"Star Weekly" has also become an authoritative magazine in the eyes of mainland film fans in one fell swoop.

The Central Academy of Drama is a higher art school in mainland China, where there is a group of loyal fans of Mister Sen.

"Meiya, look at what I got it?"

A girl threw her slippers and hurriedly rushed into the dormitory, and as soon as she entered the dormitory, she closed the door with her backhand and mysteriously took out something from her arms.

"Shutter Island's genuine DVD! There's also a special issue of Star Weekly Mister! ”

After seeing this beautifully packaged video, the girls who were still doing their own things suddenly surrounded them.

"Show me, show me"

"Don't rob it, show it to me."

The small four-person room suddenly became chaotic.

"Hey, Meiya, why don't you come and take a look, don't you like Mister's movie the most?"

The girl who brought the disc suddenly found that the youngest girl in the bedroom had not come, walked up to her and sat down, and asked a little puzzled, "Meiya, what's wrong with you?" Don't you like Mister Sen the most? This is a genuine DVD.,And this special issue.,It's rare.,By the way.,There's also pictures and introductions.,Why don't you go and take a look.。 ”

"Xiaobei, I'm in a bit uncomfortable today"

"What's wrong? Our little beauty has a crush on that guy? Tell me about it. ”

"Nope"

Lowering her head, the little girl who was called a beautiful girl had a little flush on her face, and after hesitating for a long time, she whispered a word in Xiaobei's ear.

"Hahahaha"

As soon as the words fell, Xiaobei clutched her stomach and laughed breathlessly.

"Don't laugh at me."

Meiya picked up a pillow from the side and buried her head under it.

"Hahahaha, beautiful girl, you're too cute, you can feel guilty, oops, let me gasp."

After Xiaobei sat on the bed and calmed down her emotions, she leaned down and whispered in Meiya's ear: "Isn't it just a dream and a kiss, do you know what dream I had that day?" I dreamed that Mistre was lying in my bed and not yet dressed."

"Xiaobei, don't say it, it's disgusting!"

"Okay, I dare to say that my mother is disgusting, let's die, tickle the magic"

"Ahh

A note in the years, even if it has no meaning, has a long-term and eternal existence, which is youth.

Xiansen did not know that his fame had gradually spread in China, and he did not have time to care about these things, because Christmas was approaching, and before that, the result of the lawsuit between him and the New York Times had come out at this time, and he did not go to court, but entrusted it all to Nelson Johnson, and unexpectedly, although the lawsuit with the New York Times was lost, the lawsuit with Kate was won, on the grounds that Kate's article was not rigorous enough, which caused reputational damage to the plaintiff. As a defendant, Kate needs to publicly issue a letter of apology and compensate Xiansen for 1,000 US dollars in mental damages, which was finally put into Xiansen's love account, and Xiansen didn't look at it very important when he sued, he just deliberately wanted to disgust and disgust the other party, it's as simple as that.

After losing the lawsuit, Kate publicly published an apology letter in the "New York Times", which also allowed him to escape, at least the original gambling contract to eat the newspaper has rarely been mentioned, everyone has apologized, and then stalking the other party to eat the newspaper sounds not generous enough.

In addition, at this time, there are still more than 200 movie theaters in the United States that are showing "Shutter Island", but it is not long before the whole offline painting, Christmas file, this is the time period when real blockbusters gather, such as "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone", "The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring", "Monsters, Inc." and other movies have rushed to this schedule, usually every year's ticket champion is in this time period, but this year may have to change a little.

321 million US dollars, this is the North American box office performance of "Shutter Island", although the overseas box office revenue is a bit different from it, but it also won 82 million US dollars at the box office, this is the first film to break 400 million at the global box office, and it is also the first R-rated film with a box office of more than 400 million so far.

Since "Shutter Island" was released in cooperation with Columbia, after deducting 42% of the box office share of the theaters, the remaining 58% will be divided equally between Sensen and Columbia, with $121 million before tax, which is the final extra figure in Sensen's bank account, which also makes Xiansen the youngest billionaire in the United States.

When he saw the numbers in his account, Xiansen smirked, the impact of billionaires is so great that Xiansen still feels a little incredible.

"Rachel, you say, I'm going to be a successful person? Am I an elite aristocrat? 100 million yuan, how to spend it? ”

Lying on the bed in the hotel, Xiansen asked in disbelief.

"This is the tenth time you have said it to me, and by the way, after deducting taxes, you probably have more than 80 million left."

Rachel pulled the quilt over her, turned off the bedside lamp, and fell asleep on her own, she didn't want to care about this person who had fallen into the eyes of money.

"Rachel, you say, should we go buy a house first, a house for the two of us."

Hearing this, there was a "pop", and the bedside lamp came on again, only to see Rachel sit up all of a sudden, look into Xiansen's eyes and say, "You want to move out of the house?" ”

"But isn't it cruel to let my dad live alone?"

Xian Sen hesitated a little, in fact, he also wanted to move out and buy a house by himself, but his father raised him since he was a child, as a person influenced by traditional Chinese filial piety, Xian Sen was still a little reluctant to live completely apart from his father.

"Cruel? Where is the cruelty? ”

Rachel asked with some confusion, in her eyes, isn't it normal to give her parents their own space, but also to give themselves some ** and freedom?

"Well, I'm going to talk to my father tomorrow, you know, and I'm going to respect his opinion too."

Hearing this, Rachel also nodded, this is indeed a big deal, that is, she herself has to talk to her parents.

"Sleep, good night."

With a gentle kiss on the sen, Rachel reached out to turn off the lights.

"Good night? It seems a little early. ”

Xiansen suddenly laughed evilly, turned over and pressed Rachel under him, looked into the girl's eyes and said, "Baby, I think we can exercise a little"

"You think I'm going to be scared of you?"

In this case, Rachel did not show the slightest weakness, raised his head slightly, spit out his dexterous tongue, licked Xiansen's lips, and said softly: "Does our billionaire want to bully me?" ”

Looking at the little girl's restless eyes, Xiansen felt that he had become the one who was being molested, so he didn't say anything more, leaned over, and exhaled in Rachel's ear: "That's right, so, you're finished"

The night is blurry, delicate and breathing, and the spring is boundless

[The number of words is not enough, melon seeds will go to school tomorrow, and I will pack up my things today, I'm really sorry]
