Chapter 47
"Dad, Mom, why are you here?"
Martin quickly picked up his mood and came to Grant and Linda.
Linda's face looked a little ugly, and Martin's state just now scared her.
"Oh, my little Martin, are you okay just now? You scared your mother."
"Haha, Mom, I'm fine, I'm just a little bit into the drama. Grant also spoke, with a serious expression:"Do you need me to hire a psychiatrist for you?""
He doesn't want his genius son to have psychological problems while filming a movie.
"No need, dad, look at me, isn’t it normal now? I can act very quickly, this is my talent."
Martin looked proud.
He did come out of the play very quickly. As a succubus, Martin could not be affected by the role at all. He just pretended to be in the play, mainly to avoid suspicion.
After comforting his parents, the three They chatted for a while.
Grant said:"Martin, you have more and more money in your account now. I think it's time to consider tax avoidance."
Martin opened a bank account with Grant as early as a year ago, which contains his royalties, movie shares, record shares, etc. The amount is close to eight million U.S. dollars.
This number was in the 1990s. America has a huge deposit
"Dad, I have already thought about it. I want to invest this money."
"invest? Did someone on Wall Street find you?"
Grant frowned slightly, a little worried that his son was deceived by those Wall Street investors. These"hyenas" are guys who eat people without spitting out bones.
"No, it was my own idea. I took a fancy to two stocks."
"Oh, which two?"
Grant is interested. Does my son still have financial talent?
As a financial family, Grant certainly hopes that his son can have this ability.
"Apple and Microsoft!"
"internet? This is not a good choice. The Internet bubble has aroused the vigilance of the Federal Reserve. This huge"air balloon" cannot be told when it will burst. When the time comes, bankruptcy, bankruptcy, and a sharp drop in market value will be the theme of Internet companies."
Martin secretly admired him. Of course he knew that the market value of Internet companies was extremely high. He even knew the specific time when the bubble burst. But he also knew that the future belonged to the Internet... Since he has money now, why not use it to pay taxes? , it is better to invest in these Internet companies, and most of his income will be invested in these Internet companies in the future.
Even if he knows that now is not the best time to enter, but even if he enters now, he will wait until ten or twenty years later , the money he invests will turn into an astronomical figure
"The Internet is the future, Dad. The so-called 'bubble burst' squeezes out those uncompetitive companies. This is actually a good thing for the surviving Internet companies, because the track is more open, competition has become smaller, and investors know where to go with their money. Where did you vote?……"
"So, do you think Apple and Microsoft can survive?"
"Yes dad, I trust my own judgment"
…………
Grant mused after leaving the set.
He had been thinking about what Martin said along the way, and he felt that it made sense, but the risk was not small, because no one would know how big the bubble was and which companies it would affect before it burst.
But - he suddenly thought that many media had mentioned that his son's mouth was blessed by God. As we all know, people who are involved in finance are superstitious, especially in the West, so...
Grant made an order on the way back. My future self praised the wise decision, which also increased the wealth of the Meyers family countless times, making it one of the truly super-rich families.
…………
Time has come to May, and the filming of"The Sixth Sense" is progressing very quickly, and most of it has been completed.
On this day, there was a break in shooting.
Martin's agent Jeff brought him news
"Martin, Benjamin from Random House called me, and your Kung Fu Panda is No. 1 on the latest North American bestseller list, as is Ready Player One, which was released two months ago. Thirty-sixth place"
"According to Benjamin, the sales momentum of"Ready Player One" is very good. Not only children like to watch it, but adults also like it. The sales data is likely to exceed that of"Kung Fu Panda".》"
"You are such a genius, Martin!"Jeff smiled and complimented.
"Oh, God!"There was an exclamation from the side.
Both of them turned their heads to look, and saw Bruce Willis looking at Martin with a shocked face, his mouth open wide enough to stuff an egg.
Seeing the two people looking at each other , Come over, Bruce raised his hand in embarrassment,"Sorry, I didn't mean to eavesdrop, but the director asked me to call you over."
"It's okay, Bruce."Martin didn't mind at all.
On the way to meet the director, Bruce sighed:"Before I participated in this play, my agent told me about you. He said that you were a best-selling author and had written a best-selling book. It's a very popular book, but I didn't expect it to be so popular, and not one, but two.
Martin laughed and said,"I didn't expect the story in my head to be so popular.""
"Martin, you are a true genius."
After spending so many days together on the set, Bruce no longer treats Martin as a child.
In fact, the other party has surpassed him in terms of achievements.
After the two met Shyamalan, they chatted for a while about the upcoming filming. shot.
Then Shyamalan changed the topic and said to Martin:"Martin, I know you can compose music. If possible, I hope you can be responsible for composing the background music of this movie. Martin frowned slightly,"Harvey found you. Is this what he meant?" Shyamalan smiled awkwardly and said,"You guessed it, well, this made me relieved. This doesn't count as me betraying him.""
Then Shyamalan added:"He said he couldn't talk to you in person because he was afraid that if the talks collapsed it would affect your relationship, so let me tell you, to be honest, I don't want to affect our relationship."
Shyamalan is serious about this. He also wants to have the opportunity to continue to cooperate with Martin in the future.
"How much is he willing to pay? Bruce helped Martin ask the key question,"You won't let our little genius compose music for free!""
"this one……"
Judging from Shyamalan's expression, you can tell that this is what the stingy fat man meant.
Just as Martin was about to speak, he was stopped by Bruce,"Martin, let Jeff talk about this matter and ask him to contact Harvey. You don't want to get involved."
Bruce didn't know Martin's ability and was afraid that he would be betrayed by Harvey. Flirting is a good intention.
Martin smiled and thanked him without insisting. The agent should have done this in the first place.
