The Growth of the Richest Man

Chapter 95: “Smart: Ghost Recording” Proceeds

Because the statistics of this movie are of special significance, under the supervision of the Hollywood consortium, Hollywood’s statistical efficiency is also very high. The total box office has already been counted, and the US box office totals 203 million US dollars, which is almost exactly the same as the box office of this movie in the previous life.

This data has also attracted the attention of the entire Hollywood film circle:

“Mr. Zhang Yong, a talented Chinese director, wrote, directed, and acted in the film “Spirit: Ghost Records”, which won 203 million at the box office and temporarily ranked first in Hollywood’s box office in the first quarter of 2008!” The New York Times reported , their focus is the success of Zhang Yong’s films.

“”Smart: Ghost Story” won 203 million box office, and achieved very good results. But according to the bet between Mr. Spielberg and Mr. Zhang Yong, the income of this film must exceed half of the income of “Transformers”, It is Zhang Yong who wins the bet. Mr. Spielberg’s “Transformers” box office is as high as 700 million US dollars. Obviously, although Mr. Zhang Yong’s movie is very good, the bet is still Mr. Spielberg wins! According to Zhang In the bet between Mr. Yong and Mr. Spielberg, Mr. Zhang Yong will sell the patent rights of the three-dimensional film technology at a price of 100 million US dollars!” The Wall Street Journal reported on the failure of Zhang Yong’s film bet. Of course, although Zhang Yong failed, many people still envied him, because Zhang Yong was able to get hundreds of millions of shares from the box office, and at the same time, he could earn another 100 million yuan from the sale of technology to travel abroad. , you can earn 200 million, or US dollars, which makes many people envious.

“”Smart: Ghost Records” won 203 million box office. However, the filming, promotion, and broadcast time of the film were very rushed, and it also received an R-rating restriction from the Film Association. Although Mr. Spielberg won, Hollywood The giants can’t win!” The Washington Post represents another consortium that opposes the Hollywood consortium, so it is very critical of the Hollywood consortium’s victory.

“Mr. Zhang, we lost this time, but they won’t win very brightly, we can absolutely not fulfill the contract!” Xu Lili was also very dissatisfied. If their promotion time is more, or the movie is rated R a week later, Zhang Yong’s victory is almost a certainty.

“The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of my country expresses strong dissatisfaction with the unfair treatment of Chinese citizen Zhang Yong during his business in the United States, and demands that the United States treat Chinese citizens fairly and ensure the legal rights of Chinese citizens.” During this time, Zhang Yong’s strong backstage , that is the Cincinnati Consulate, but this time, the voice on behalf of the country is no longer the consulate, but the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Domestic netizens also expressed their condolences to Zhang Yong on Zhang Yong’s Renren blog, saying that although he was defeated, he would continue to support Zhang Yong. If the film is released in China, he will strongly support him. Look, although the US box office failed, the global box office must definitely surpass “Transformers”.

Gong Min also called. Although Zhang Yong failed in this bet, it was not Zhang Yong’s responsibility for the failure. Although Gong Min is a scientist, he is also a businessman. He thinks that it is not a bad idea to sell the 3D film production technology according to the agreement. Although this technology has certain thresholds, it is not a very sophisticated technology. It’s not impossible to sell it. However, the mobile phone energy-saving technology and large-capacity battery technology recently developed by Gong Min’s team cannot be sold.

In fact, Zhang Yong didn’t know the box office of his movie so quickly, but after hearing so many negative comments, he was also very depressed. Reborn in this world by yourself, do you really have to face the first Waterloo?

But Zhang Yong carefully looked at everyone’s comments, and then looked at the reason for this discussion, “Smart: Ghost Recording” lost to “Transformers”? This is the reason for this discussion. But Zhang Yong made a rough calculation in his head, and it seemed that something was not right, as if he had not lost.

“Xu Lili, please help me review it carefully to see if we have lost!” Even if Zhang Yong wants to lose, he must lose until he is convinced.

200 million box office and 700 million box office ratio? Certainly less than half! Xu Lili thought that Zhang Yong was crazy at this time, but he still followed Zhang Yong’s orders carefully.

“The total box office revenue of “Transformers” is 709,709,780 US dollars. According to the dividend ratio of 50%, Spielberg’s box office revenue is 354,854,890 US dollars. According to Mr. Spielberg, his film investment is $151,736,481, so after the cost of the film, the total return on investment is $203,118,409.”

“The total box office revenue of “Smart: Ghost Records” is $203,452,640. According to the dividend ratio of 50%, Spielberg’s box office revenue is $101,726,320. Our film investment totals $15,766, so deducting The cost of the film, the total investment income is US$101,710,554~www.readwn.com~ Xu Lili calculated the data of the two films very accurately according to Zhang Yong’s request.

But as soon as he saw these two figures, Xu Lili immediately discovered the problem: “Wait, why is there something wrong with the data, half of the total revenue of “Transformers” is 101,559,20.45 billion US dollars, and the revenue of our movie is 101 , $710,554, our movie’s revenue is more than $150,000 higher than half of Transformers’ total box office, and we should win!”

After calculating this number, Xu Lili was already in tears. It turned out that it was not them who lost, but the other side lost! Now only Xu Lili knows about this news, not even Zhang Yong, so the first person to receive such exciting news is herself.

Xu Lili excitedly rushed to the hotel room where Zhang Yong was, and told Zhang Yong the news, “We won, we won!!”

Zhang Yong was taking a shower at this time, and immediately rushed out of the bathroom, picked up the data that Xu Lili gave her, looked at it carefully, and his nose was sore with excitement, “We won! It turns out that we should have won!” He hugged excitedly. Raise Xu Lili and celebrate!

Du Xiaoyu, who went out to buy snacks, also came back at this time. Just as he was walking to the door, he heard this voice, “Why we won, so happy!” The voice came before anyone arrived.

But as soon as he walked in the door, Du Xiaoyu immediately turned from sunny to overcast, “Zhang Yong! Hello!!”

what? Zhang Yong was puzzled by Du Xiaoyu’s reaction. But right away, he realized that he was taking a bath just now, and now he is naked and naked. The point is, he is still holding Xu Lili! Zhang Yong felt that this time he was really going to die!
