After finalizing the record deal for the Skeletons, Link had planned to talk to Eminem about the movie "Eight Mile". But seeing the other party staying in the recording studio like crazy, the whole person seemed to be completely immersed in the world of music, which made Link only sigh and fly back to New York.

He knew that it must be because of the lady-gaga incident that Eminem was sinking more and more.

"Could it be that this kid is really in love with Gaga chick?"

Every time he thought about this question, Link couldn't help but tremble, they really didn't fit. But seeing Eminem going crazy day by day, Link also felt that it was time to help him.

But not now.

Because, he has more things to do.

As soon as he got off the plane, Link didn't go back, and rushed directly to CAA TV.

Seeing that the small building was overcrowded, and even the Fahrenheit Media next to it was the same, Link felt that it was time to change places.

However, his current money is obviously not enough, and he is still a little short.

Directly sent someone to call several major executives to the office, and the first thing Link said was: "The company's profit target for next year is one billion!" ”

"A billion?"

A few company executives are simply stupid, a billion, what concept? This year, CAA Media Group's full account is only more than 200 million points.

"My little boss, you don't have a fever, do you?"

Fat Jack wiped the cold sweat from his face in a daze.

Lu Si also frowned and said: "This is impossible, even if one billion is calculated according to gross profits, how many advertisements do we have to accept?" Where are we going to get that money? ”

Link laughed: "Believe it or not, I can make a billion with only 100 million dollars?" ”

Several executives clearly looked disconvinced.

Link touched his nose and laughed: "Out of 100 million, there are already 50 million dollars to buy the 'Residual Energy Fluctuation', which means that I can still use 50 million dollars." ”

"50 million is already the limit." Lu Si said with some displeasure: "Little boss, you can spend money too much, although the company has more than 200 million yuan in the account this year, even if you add the overseas copyright negotiations of "The Walking Dead" that are about to be completed, it will only be 300 million US dollars at most. In the early stage, it cost more than 100 million dollars, and it will be reduced by 50 million dollars to buy the 'Residual Energy Fluctuation'. To ensure the operation of the entire company, it will be at least 80 million, how many do you calculate we have left? And that's not even counting employee salaries and expenses. ”

Link was sweating profusely, he had heard people say that he was a billionaire or something all day long, but now when he heard Luth's words, he realized that he was running out of money again.

"Oh my God, it's so hard to make money, but it's like running water."

Link tapped his head with a headache.

"I'll take a look." Poke, who had just finished filming "The Walking Dead", suddenly spoke up.

"Oh? What to pay attention to? Let's talk about it. ”

Link was suddenly interested.

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Pock said unhurriedly: "It's very simple, sell the network department." ”

"Sell your sister, sell it." Andrew, the director of the network department, suddenly jumped out and shouted with red eyes: "Old Bock, I know you have always looked at me unpleasantly, but as for speaking ill of me in front of the little boss, right?" ”

Boke pursed his lips and said in a heart-wrenching voice: "It's been almost half a year since the establishment of the Network Department, how much money do you say you have made for the company?" On the contrary, it is tens of millions as soon as you reach out. That 100 million miles is almost a waste of your network department. Am I not right? ”

Andrew, as the head of the network department, of course knows that this is all true, but he still shows a strong unwillingness to Pock's accusations.

"The network department is now on the rise, and although it is not profitable now, it does not mean that it will not make money in the future. I am optimistic about the future development of the network, and I ask the company to believe in my ability. ”

"The ability of bullshit." Bock also looked a little annoyed: "The network department is under my jurisdiction, and I propose to sell it now, and it depends on whether the little boss agrees or not." ”

As he spoke, Polk also looked at Link next to him.

Even Andrew, whose face was flushed, looked at him nervously.

Link scratched his head, although he knew that Andrew had indeed reached out and asked for a lot of money, but he himself was quite interested in the Internet, and he was really a little reluctant to make a move.

"You two stop arguing." Link smiled and became a peacemaker: "The network department is indeed developing too slowly, and it has also spent too much money, and Andrew is mainly responsible." ”

This sentence suddenly made Polk smile on his face, but Andrew's face changed greatly.

But Link continued: "Well, I am also optimistic about the future development of the Internet. It's nothing to spend some money now, and if you can't keep up with the times in the future, it's bad. ”

Sure enough, as soon as Link finished saying this, he slapped the board.

Pock's face sank again, and it was Andrew's turn to look at him triumphantly.

But Link immediately said: "Well, the network department will be profitable immediately, a month at most." ”

"How is that possible?" Andrew, who is the head of the network department, was shocked by his words. When the network department will make a profit, he actually has no bottom in his heart. Except for the big portals, none of the other websites are profitable.

"I said yes, I'll tell you when it's done."

Link didn't explain much, and kicked Andrew back to the network department. Rust also walked out and went about his business.

In the office, there were only three people left, Link, Fat Jack and Pock.

Seeing that Poke was still a little indignant, Link suddenly laughed: "Okay, okay, let's put down the other things first, I have something to tell you here." ”

"What is it?"

"I'm ready to make a movie."

"Movies?" Fat Jack was stunned for a moment, but immediately said indifferently: "Just shoot it, anyway, little boss, you are the director, and it's normal to make movies." ”

Poke also nodded: "Fahrenheit Media is now fully capable of making movies, and there is no big problem. ”

Originally, Link thought that the two of them would be surprised, but he didn't expect this reaction, and suddenly he felt a little speechless.

After explaining his film plan and temporary arrangements to them, Link began to ask them for their opinions.

Poke spoke first, he frowned and said, "Is a million investment a little less?" ”

Fat Jack also nodded: "One million is indeed less, and it is completely unworthy of the name of our company." ”

Link rolled his eyes: "The name of bullshit, one million is a lot, and I even added the publicity expenses." ”

"Not really." The two were dumbfounded: "What kind of movie is this?" Is it a romance action movie? Otherwise, it would be impossible to spend this amount of money. ”

Link smirked: "Then you don't have to worry about it, I can only say that this is a garbage movie." ”

"Lah...... Litter? ”

Fat Jack was almost stunned by him.

"Why does our company make garbage movies? This will affect our impression in the minds of the audience. ”

Link grinned, "Who said junk movies can't make money?" This junk movie is going to be a money-making machine, and someone will buy it. ”

The two persuaded Link for a long time, but Link never let go, as if he had made up his mind to make a garbage movie.

"Okay, if it's okay, you guys can get busy first, and I'll continue to revise the script."

Link was annoyed by their noise and was ready to chase them away.

Poke sighed and went out depressed, Fat Jack just got up, but he seemed to suddenly think of something, and said: "By the way, fans of "The Walking Dead" have been frantically asking us to publish comics these days, what do you think, boss?" ”

"Then publish it, it's all ready-made anyway. If you have money to make, why not? Link said nonchalantly.

"Okay, I'll talk to a publisher." Fat Jack was about to leave after speaking, but Link was suddenly stunned and stopped him with a loud voice.

"What did you just say?"

Fat Jack replied suspiciously: "I said to find a publishing house, since I am going to publish the comics of "The Walking Dead", I naturally have to find a publishing company." ”

Link sat behind his desk in a daze, and when Fat Jack said the word 'publishing', it was as if something had suddenly flashed through his mind.

He'd had this strange feeling once, and it still was.

Link was so dazed that he didn't even see Fat Jack walk out of the office.

For the whole day, Link pondered the question, chasing the thought that flashed through him.

Until he got home, Link seemed a little absent-minded.

As soon as he entered, Link saw that Mira was busy making dinner, but Jessica didn't know when she had returned......

"Jessica, are you done with the movie promotion?"

Link asked casually and sat down on the couch. The movie Jessica participated in a few months ago was released on this year's Christmas schedule, and she was invited to do publicity a few days ago.

Jessica nodded, leaned over to Link and kissed him on the face, and said with a grin, "Yes, this movie will be released at Christmas, and the premiere is also being prepared."

Paramount Pictures, which values the film adaptation of the novel, has already begun a promotional plan. When it's released, you'll have to go with me to see it, you promised me at the time. ”

"Oh, huh?"

Link replied lightly, but suddenly froze, stared at Jessica, and asked, "What did you just say?" ”

"I said I wanted you to come with me to the premiere." Jessica didn't understand why he looked at herself like this, and said subconsciously.

"No, it's the previous sentence." Link was already frowning.

Jessica also became a little nervous: "The previous sentence...... Is the previous sentence Paramount? ”

"That's not the case."

"Do you want to say the previous one?" Jessica began to rack her brain again: "I forgot too, anyway, this movie is based on the novel, and then Paramount Pictures invests in ......"

"Yes, that's it."

Link's eyes suddenly lit up, and he immediately laughed, hugged Jessica, and kissed her fiercely on the face: "Jessica, you are so smart." ”

Jessica cried out dissatisfiedly: "Look at you, saliva is all on my face." (To be continued.) )
