"The box office of "Blade Warrior" is quite good. How much did it make?" Han Xuan asked him after his grandfather put down the phone.

“No counting it.

Some places are still being released, but not many, and there are only 600 screens left in China. Americans like this kind of movie, and their performance is just average in Europe.

Why do you have time to come to me today? Oh, by the way, your movie is going to be cast, right?

What are you doing? You have to be an actor. See which company boss is like you and you are having fun?"

"Howard Hughes."

"...I'm going to invest a lot." Guo Muzhou found an example when he saw his grandson Zhen and immediately changed the topic. "I have read the script. The plot is very good. With your fame, as long as you don't act too badly, the box office should be OK."

Han Xuan showed suspicion. He originally planned to invest and shoot the movie himself, and it was considered an independent movie, but it seemed that my grandfather was going to turn it into Dimen Pictures. He asked: "Do you invest?

Do you still have to pay me and Fat Ding’s films? Which company will let you shoot?”

"Marvel Studios has half of your shares. How about Marvel Studios filming? We will make half of each of our money."

"Forget it, let Dimen Pictures come.

Marvel Studios only produces superhero movies, and this concept must be instilled into people first and cannot be messed up.

Just think of it as a project planned by Dimen Pictures, it can help the company increase its reputation..."

Guo Muzhou now controls Dimen Pictures, while Marvel Pictures has 40% of Han Xuan's shares.

It doesn’t matter which company shoots Han Xuan. He is more interested in another thing, and then asked: “Grandpa, let’s talk about the pay, how much are you going to give me and Fat Ding?”

They are all family members, so Guo Muzhou never considered the pay. In his opinion, does his grandson still have to pay for his movies to help his company perform?

But Han Xuan mentioned it, and he couldn't be disheartened. Guo Muzhou stuttered with a tentative look on his face: "...Fat Ding doesn't need it, I'll give you a million dollars?"

If it weren't for his grandfather's face, he would have spitted. Han Xuan looked extremely depressed and glared at the old man in front of him: "I can't afford to lose that person! And the fat guys should also give it to him!

Others are holding $20 to 30 million to make me an advertising spokesperson. How tiring is it to make a movie? Do you only give me one million in pay?"

"Then how much do you say?" Guo Muzhou showed such an expression. It would be better to try it than not.

"At least...10 million US dollars, Fat Ding also needs to get 2 million. If the gift is higher, I don't mind.

Fat Ding’s money is given to it, and that guy doesn’t have to pay taxes. I donate my part directly to the family trust fund, and you can also pay a little less.

Speaking of which, these stars are so miserable. Half of Tom’s salary is used to pay taxes, right?”

"More than just the ladder system, most of it is tax, so so many companies have moved out of Hollywood and actors have also started to immigrate.

It’s hard to say that even if the tax is high, they still make more money than others, and some of their gray income is avoided, just like companies.

As you said, it can also make the reporters hype about topics. I think an investment of 45 million should be enough. So many big stars make free guest appearances.

Why do you give directors so much money? Now, it costs only three to five million US dollars to buy movies. Kemp is not a top director yet."

"Of course of the more than three million dollars, some of them will be spent on the crew members he hired. If that part is removed, it will be about one and a half million dollars."

"This is almost the same." Guo Muzhou remembered something and then asked: "How is the business of amc theaters?"

At the beginning of last year, Star Investment contacted the second largest theater company in the United States, with nearly 300 cinemas and more than 4,000 screens, and decided to acquire 30% of its shares for $500 million.

At first, the Ministry of Commerce did not intend to agree to this application because the US film market required the separation of distribution and theaters, but with President Clinton's help, he finally bought it.

Nodded to his grandfather, Han Xuan said: "It's okay. The shares are in the hands of a shell company in Maldives. The profit fluctuations are not much fluctuating, and they are relatively stable.

The most important thing is that with this part of theater shares, we can get the best release schedule and make other film companies obedient, at least not make trouble for you.”

"well……

There is no problem with the schedule, but there is no time to do the special effects of "X-Men". It's already October and there are more than two months left. It may be a bit difficult to catch up with Christmas."

"Who has kept Industrial Light and Magic Special Effects Company busy recently? I will call Mr. George Lucas to talk about this.

It’s still the same as FIell making money. Once the price of DVD is reduced, sales will increase. Now the FIell company’s DVD rental and sales business market continues to expand. When I make a profit from the DVD market, I will start selling DVD at a low price. Then the DVD market will be bigger.”

"I know, such a good company, how can you divide more than half of your shares? These film companies threaten you with copyright?"

“This is not, it’s just reciprocity.

I sold them shares in the Fell company at a low price, and they transferred the useless video network playback rights to me.

Haha! It’s so funny. When the future technology development reaches a certain stage, I will make a lot of money by relying on the copyright of online screenings of those movies and TV series.

But they didn't lose. Fell is the profit that can be seen in front of me. After reaching an exchange with more than ten companies, I still have 56% of Fell's shares, just take control."

Guo Muzhou knew only a little, and then said: "I'm looking for someone to draft a contract, and the script is 500,000... no, 2 million."

In this way, if someone asks you to write a script in the future, there will be a reference price. Your own company is fine, but ABC TV still has some shares in the hands of others and you cannot suffer any losses.

Even if the salary is $15 million, it will be the same price as Schwarzenegger. Anyway, it will be transferred to the family trust, so no matter how you calculate it, you won’t lose.”

After hearing grandpa whispering, Han Xuan went out to cast the scene.

Director Kemp had already gone there first, and there were long queues in the corridor on the first floor, including some small stars.

When I went downstairs, I accidentally saw Jason Statham, and the other party also saw him.

Statham walked over and said hello: "Hi! Han! Do you still remember me?"

"Huh, why are you here?"

"I broke my finger bones when I made a movie and came here to reimburse my medical expenses." Statham raised his bandaged hand and said with a wry smile that he is now acting in "The Expendables" and it happened to be on holiday today.

"Can't take a picture?"

"Photo, even if my ribs are broken, I have to shoot. I don't have many scenes anymore, I'm just a supporting role."

"It's okay, I've read the script, you can't die, the next one will let you be the protagonist.

Come with me now, and there is a villain in my movie that is suitable for you to play."

"Your movie?"

"Well, I received a movie that paid $15 million."

“…really? You?”
