0243 A noble and elegant man with lofty ideals - Master Lynch
Lynch politely listened to the other party's narrative for about seven or eight minutes, and then shook his head apologetically, "Sorry, I have no plans to invest more in this area for the time being, and ......"
He glanced at the Fox father and son in the crowd not far away, retracted his gaze and said with a smile, "I'm investing in people, not companies, I'm sorry!"
The vice president of the surprise box production company was a little regretful but politely expressed his regret that he did not reach the intention, and then left calmly.
Because of the financial tsunami, those large companies have been affected much more than many small companies, and the surprise box can basically be said to be wiped out in some investment projects that are not in the entertainment industry.
This makes their cash flow a little difficult, and if they don't want the company to have problems, finding some new investors and cash is the best and the best thing to do.
The entertainment industry is now in a very strange situation, obviously the federal government has relaxed various policies closely related to the entertainment industry, but investors are more cautious than ever.
Obviously, many people can casually list some reasons why the entertainment industry will be the next growth point of the federal economy, but they just don't invest money.
They are still waiting, before figuring out whether they can make money or whether they will continue to lose money, these people will definitely not invest money easily, they have already suffered a loss in the securities market, and the residual pain is still stimulating their nerves, and they will remember these lessons for a short time before these sore spots disappear.
The departure of the vice president of the surprise box caused Lynch's "female companion" to end the chat with the other ladies and return to Lynch's side.
According to the etiquette of this occasion, they came together, so they must also go together when they left, and anyone who left alone would be regarded as an inappropriate faux pas, and even secretly ridiculed.
There's no doubt that girls don't want to be the latest joke in the entertainment industry, and Lynch doesn't really care, and of course he doesn't want to be a negative talking point if he chooses.
The two stood together, close together, but didn't have anything to say, which made the young girl a little embarrassed, and she felt that the normal situation was that the two of them should talk about something naturally, at least like a normal "couple".
After thinking for a while, the girl decided to break this somewhat peculiar and awkward atmosphere, and she asked a question, "Lynch, do you usually watch movies?"
If Lynch answers that he watches, in fact, most people will answer like this, because this is Raltimore, this is the core of the film industry, and how many people here don't like to watch movies?
As soon as Lynch replied that he watched a movie, the girl would be able to expand the conversation to talk about the type of movie he liked, the types of actors she knew, or even a little theater joke.
In this way, the atmosphere between the two will not be too awkward, and it will be a little more natural.
But when she didn't expect it, Lynch shook his head directly, "I don't watch movies!"
The smile on the girl's face froze for half a second, and she disguised her embarrassment by caressing the ornament on the side of her hair.
She felt that she couldn't talk to Lynch anymore, and he just talked to death.
In fact, Lynch knew what this girl was going to do, but he was not interested in this girl, having experienced so many things in his previous life, such as various relationships between two different genders, it was already difficult to attract his attention.
Compared with these short-lived and empty and boring short-term pleasures, a higher level of accomplishment is what men of his age are looking for.
Money, power, status, and every success!
Successful men should put the whole world in the palm of their hands, and only losers will linger on the vulgar pleasures between beds, and Lynch is a refined man.
The cold meal, which was destined to make the girl feel bored, finally came to an end after more than half an hour, and as a final conclusion, Lynch and the girl left together.
The car they were in passed by where the girl was currently staying, dropped her off, and took Lynch back to the hotel.
He doesn't leave until three days later, and in the Bylor Federation, the box office changes of the first three days are enough to reflect the total box office of a film under normal circumstances, and people have a set of scientific calculations to calculate these.
It's not accurate, but it's pretty much the same.
Not just Lynch, the Fox father and son are waiting for this first movie of the new year, there are many more who are waiting, and the whole industry is waiting!
Early the next morning, on his way back from a workout in the hotel gym, Lynch happened to run into Little Fox, with some irrepressible smiles on his face, and when he saw Lynch, those smiles were even more uncontrollable.
He was in the hallway, laughing loudly, which was actually very rude, but now...... Whatever!
"The pre-sale box office came out, 490,000, which was 30 percent more than the distribution company predicted!", Little Fox was a little too excited, but it was understandable.
The investment in this film is actually not large, all the expenses add up to less than 750,000, the cost of filming is only a small part, and the rest is publicity and distribution.
In fact, even if it sells very well, Lynch and they will not lose anything, and they still have the agreement for the heroine's next five adult movies, which can be sold at a high price.
But they obviously want their business to be successful, and it has nothing to do with how much money they get, it's just a pursuit of success.
Soon Mr. Fox and the heroine also appear in the hotel restaurant, and they have breakfast together.
He had talked to Lynch about it privately, and he coveted that young and energetic body.
He also talked to his son Little Fox about this, and Little Fox would not have another stepmother because of this, let alone take away the money that belonged to their father and son, but in the process of Fawkes and the girl, he hoped that Little Fox would maintain a little respect for the girl.
This is not forced, but simply does not want to cause some ethical trouble.
Who knows that the federal society is a dirty society, but everyone, including itself, will use morality to disguise their own nobility, and if they don't want to be different, they must "fit in".
As for the girls themselves?
She can strip naked on the screen for money, why can't she lie next to a rich man because of money?
In fact, Mr. Fox is not old, he is only in his forties and not yet fifty, and he is well maintained, a little younger than his actual age, which is more appropriate.
Everyone's interest was high at the dinner table, the Fox father and son's interest came from the income they were about to make, and the actress's interest came from the fact that she was about to become a female star, even if it was a star, which meant that her income was about to double.
In the future, she can take off less clothes, make more money, and even publish a book, which she has in mind, and it is called "Put on Your Clothes".
"The distribution company told me from the strategy team that our final box office might be between four million and five million, and we can get about 1.5 million to 1.7 million!"
Fox Jr. had cooled down from his ecstasy, talking about the news he had received from the distribution company, "We can make the least ...... on this film, except for all the necessary expenses and expenses"
He laboriously calculated with his brain, which was not very sensitive to numbers, "About 600,000 profits!"
He also did not forget to comment, "This is a very impressive profit, we have only spent more than three months for it, the return is close to 100%, maybe we can continue to deepen our investment in this industry." ”
Lynch nodded noncommittally when he heard this, according to his 30% equity calculation, he will probably have an income of 180,000, this kind of income can be earned without doing anything!
Mr. Fox did not immediately agree, but looked at Lynch, and instead of thinking about these things for himself, why not listen to the opinions of the wise people.
Lynch also read Mr. Fox's eyes, and he took out a five-dollar bill from his pocket and handed it to the girl, "Go outside the door and buy me a pack of cigarettes." ”
The girl just glanced at Mr. Fox, then stood up with a twisted waist, smiled and took the money from Lynch's hand and left.
She knew she wasn't qualified to hear what was next, and it made her suddenly have some other thoughts.
The money at her fingertips seemed to be less sweet at this moment, and this girl, who relied on taking off her clothes to get money, suddenly wanted to gain the respect of others, even if it was only for her to stay quietly.
It can be seen that for those who lack control and depth, success may be a more terrible poison than failure!
After watching the girl leave and there was no one else nearby, Lynch tore the bread and said, "You can go and buy some comic book publishers and publishers first, mainly for the copyright of their literary works and comic works." ”
"Compared to creating something new from scratch, some works with a fixed audience and fanatical followers will have a much simpler and more intuitive benefit when they are transformed into films, at least it will ensure that we don't lose a lot of money. ”
"But don't invest too much money in this, and don't buy what looks ......," Lynch found a few words to accurately describe his thoughts, "...... Works that are difficult to express with existing technology, such as magic knights or something, we don't have the right lighting effects, or we can do it but need more investment, these are all things that we don't need. ”
"Popular, simple, intuitive, love and hate should be obvious, and don't let go of the adult version, it's best that the actors we find are also willing to cooperate with the adult version of the performance......"
The Fox father and son worked hard to record everything Lynch said with their brains, and Lynch also selflessly gave the father and son some help.
Any successful person will not be the only one, those who want to grab any benefits into their pockets, in addition to living well in China, they can only live a very "wonderful" life in real life.
Moreover, Lynch did not care about the current insignificant interests of the federal domestic entertainment industry, and his eyes had long been fixed on international trade and all kinds of trade plunder.
A blockbuster movie never has more to earn than plundering a country.
Not before, not again, never will!
