13 September 1999.

After three months of release, "Saw Horror" has finally been drawn, and the box office data has been counted one after another.

Dream Pictures Films, conference room.

All the staff stood respectfully, waiting for Yi Feiyang to sit down with a smile before they sat down safely.

At this time, Yi Feiyang glanced at the fat man Gao Jiabao with a smile and said, "Let's start." ”

The fat man Gao Jiabao's face was flushed, and he coughed vividly, and then he, as the company's chief financial officer, said: "Colleagues, now I want to report to you about the box office and revenue of the drama "Chainsaw", please listen carefully......"

As soon as they heard that it was about the box office of "Chainsaw", everyone straightened their waists, pricked up their ears, and waited for the fat man to make a report.

The fat man enjoyed the feeling of being watched by everyone like this, glanced at it, and said: "Our "Chainsaw" has a North American box office of 110 million US dollars, an overseas box office of 130 million US dollars, a total of 240 million US dollars, and a 5:5 split with major theaters such as Paramount and Lionsgate, and a traditional 4:6 split with overseas theaters, so we have a total pre-tax income of 67.8 million US dollars, and then pay about 20% of the tax to the tax department. And excluding all the publicity expenses since the release of our play, our company's gross profit is 52.5 million US dollars......"

Bang!

Everyone was stunned by the number!

More than 50 million!

Oh my God, that's too profitable!

Seeing that everyone was stunned, the fat man was very proud. Dog's day. Now I'm finally a veritable chief financial officer!

More than 50 million in his hands. How awesome!

Regarding everyone's reaction, Yi Feiyang saw it in his eyes and smiled in his heart.

In fact, the few dramas filmed and supervised by Yi Feiyang in the past were very good at the box office, but because they did not have their own theaters, they were forced to lower the price, and the division was not two to eight. It's three to seven, which is like now, on an equal footing with Paramount and Lionsgate, and finally, a corresponding huge profit!

Seeing that the big guys were still opening their mouths and making a "stunned" appearance, Yi Feiyang smiled, tapped the table with his fingers and said, "Okay, everyone, wake up." I'll arrange something...... James Wing, I'll give you a fraction of 2.5 million of the 52.5 million. Hello for me to shoot a sequel to "Saw Horror", remember, you must build this brand well! In addition, fatty, you take out another 5 million, 200 as your red envelope, and the remaining 3 million is the dividend of several leading actors! ”

Wow, everyone is stunned again!

Some old employees are just that, and they can still restrain their excitement at the moment and try not to let themselves shout.

The new employees didn't have the stamina, shouting, "Oh my God! Is this true?! ”

The old employee next to him shook his head helplessly, but forgot that he used to shout louder than these guys.

Besides, these new employees, at the moment, their faces were flushed, and they were inexplicably excited, so they almost jumped up and danced. After they joined the company, they all heard that Yi Feiyang, the Chinese boss, was very generous, and liked to send red envelopes and dividends at every turn, but they didn't expect that they would send so much at once!

5 million!

Oh my God, this boss is so cute, I love him so much that I'm even willing to kiss the instep of his feet!!

Seeing that the big guys were so happy, Yi Feiyang's heart was even more comfortable, and he roughly calculated that in addition to these distributed dividends and red envelopes, he should be able to get a final profit of close to 45 million US dollars in the name of the company.

$45 million!

That's the equivalent of 280 million Hong Kong dollars!

It's enough to lie down and eat in this life!

Yi Feiyang's 36,000 pores were shouting cool, and he announced the last thing in a fluttering manner, "Tonight, we will hold a celebration banquet, and we will not return if we are not drunk!" ”

In fact, since the start of filming of "Chainsaw" to the current painting, a total of two celebrations have been celebrated, the first time was when the final scene, the big guys were very tired, and they celebrated on a small scale in private. Then after the success of the premiere, Yi Feiyang relaxed and got together with the big guys, which can be realized, and this celebration banquet can be regarded as a real "celebration"!

That night, Dream Pictures prepared a celebration banquet, all the cast and crew of "Saw Horror", as well as the person in charge of the company, were invited, and the excited Yi Feiyang and James Wing, as well as the old drama bone Max and others were poured wine in turn, and they lay down like mud after a while.

But before lying down, Yi Feiyang did not forget to buy the bill privately, he did not count the amount spent on this banquet into the company's account expenses, but paid the bill privately, and also wanted to take the lead in setting a good example, lest the big guys treat the company as a "home" in the future, and scratch it at every turn.

In the joy, Yi Feiyang's eyes carried an indescribable light, and then he fell drunk in the wine.

……

Happy times always pass quickly, and the next morning, the hangover Yi Feiyang barely got up from bed to work.

After entering the office, Yi Feiyang was ready to lie on the sofa and squint for a while, but there was no way, his body was too uncomfortable.

But before he could get down and warm up the couch, the secretary knocked on the door and came in and said that Mr. Gusta of Lionsgate wanted to see him.

Yi Feiyang's head is big, this is too inopportune, and he can't lie on the sofa to give someone a butt, right?

Enduring the discomfort, Yi Feiyang got up and said to the female secretary: "You ask him to wait for a while, by the way, find me a towel, and ...... it with cold water."

Suddenly, Yi Feiyang leaned back in a chair, holding a wet towel against his head, and opposite him was Gusta, whose face was full of spring breeze.

Gusta is in a good mood, yes, it's great to work with dear Yi, there is almost nothing that doesn't make money, look, a "Chainsaw" has made tens of millions for Lionsgate!

God, in Gusta's opinion, the China Yi in front of him is simply his grandmother's fortune boy, yes, he is his own God of Wealth!

Because of this, Gusta came to Yi Feiyang with such great interest, because he has a big filming plan, if Yi Feiyang is willing to join, then success is absolutely guaranteed!

Invisibly, Gusta already has an inexplicable dependence on Yi Feiyang, but he still doesn't know this.

"Yi, you look like you've drunk a lot of wine, do you want me to make some soup for you to sober up?" Gusta looked at Yi Feiyang, who still had a drunken look on his face, and quipped.

"Do you make soup as a big man?" Yi Feiyang patted his head with a towel and asked.

"Ha, don't underestimate me, although I am a banker, but my great-great-great-grandfather is a famous chef!" Gusta proudly touched his mustache with his hand.

"Alright, my chef, what the hell are you looking for me? Isn't it here to show off your cooking skills and make me a decanting soup? ”

"Oh, of course not." Gusta shrugged, "But the way you are now...... Can you talk about business? ”

"It's out of the way, just say what you have!"

"Oh yes, do you remember the last time I mentioned to you that we at Lionsgate had a big plan for the second half of the year?"

"Well, of course I remember, you were still mysterious when you said that...... Say that your company is going to make a high-cost investment pirate film, is that true? ”

"Yes, that's it." Gusta looked excited, "Actually, I've been working on this plan for a long time. Damn, those big studios have been laughing at me for not daring to be serious, always tinkering with some small-budget movies, and now, I just want them to see, I, Gusta, my Lionsgate, can also shoot tens of millions of blockbusters! ”

Yi Feiyang can understand Gusta's mood when he said this.

Lionsgate has always been a small company to a medium-sized and powerful company.

As a banker, Gusta has always paid attention to the return on investment, so he will be cautious and cautious every time he invests in a play, and excessive caution makes him particularly timid, so he will be ridiculed by his peers.

But now, Gusta's hidden ambition and desire to raise his eyebrows and pride are stimulated by the continuous success brought by Yi Feiyang, so that he began to boldly prepare a blockbuster plan in order to prove that he is a movie tycoon, not a small person in the film industry, and not a shrunken daring mouse!

"Tell me, man, what the hell are you going to do?" Yi Feiyang looked at Gusta and asked.

Gusta's face showed a burst of excitement and said, "I've researched, in the United States, the most popular elements are nothing more than vampires, werewolves, and zombies...... Now that werewolves and vampires have been filmed, there is nothing new in the zombie theme, and pirates are a new highlight! ”

"Believe me, dear Yi, you may not know much Chinese about what pirates mean in the United States, but you must have heard many stories of enduring pirate captains and legends of their search for treasure in the seas...... I'm missing a genius script though! Yes, it has to be a genius script to make a story like this well! And you, dear Yi, you are the only person I can ask for help from, I am optimistic about you, I hope you can help me, help me complete the script of this play, and then invest in the filming of this play together...... Anyway, it was like a dream, so I really wanted to shoot it...... I've even figured out the name, it's called "Somali Pirates", what do you think? Gusta looked at Yi Feiyang with expectant eyes.

Yi Feiyang threw away the wet towel on his head, and then said: "Dude, if you really want me to write a script, then change this damn name!" ”

"Ah, what's that called?"

"It's called ......Pirates of the Caribbean!" (To be continued......)

PS: I'm going to go to relatives this month, and I can only watch two shifts a day, I hope you can understand! Also, I wish you all a happy and prosperous New Year!
