Blackstone Code Chapter 809: A lot of time anyway
"Last year...how much did we make?"
As the two walked in, Lynch asked curiously.
He doesn't care too much about Fox Films. Even though he owns 30% of the shares now, the profits brought by these shares are just a small sum of money for him now.
He didn't want to pay attention to the operation and revenue of Fox Films for a little money, and even asked some professional people to check the accounts.
He is not worried that Little Fox will deceive him in this regard, knowing that Mr. Lynch is not so easy to fool, and accidents will happen.
In addition, shareholders will keep an eye on Fox and the company's accountants to ensure that every cent of the money belonging to shareholders will not stay too much in the accounts of Fox and the company, which naturally includes Lynch's that money.
Every once in a while, profits will be credited to Lynch's account, which may be hundreds of thousands or hundreds of thousands...
Or...a million?
Lin Qi is clearly asking this question, but he feels like "I don't **** care about this."
Little Fox's smile was a bit bitter. For him and his father, the most successful investment in their life, the most proud company, had no place in Lynch's eyes.
But since I asked, I still have to answer.
"We had three to five films released every quarter last year, the least one has already started to make a profit, and the most single film has a profit of more than 1.5 million!"
When talking about this number, Fox Jr. is still very proud. With so many producers in Laltimore, Fox Pictures may not be the most profitable, but it is definitely one of the most successful in operation.
Every time they invest in a movie, they have never encountered a situation where the audience does not buy it. This is also related to the screenwriting department of Fox Pictures.
The current head of Fox's writing department, a truck driver, has a very special instinct for picking scripts.
What he pursues is not entirely the artistry that screenwriters, directors and all filmmakers pursue today, but rather a smoothness in the viewing process.
Simple, easy to understand, good-looking, that's enough, which makes Fox's films somewhat different from those of other studios.
Those academics call their films "dirty movies", and every shot seems to be full of **** and dirty language, but audiences like to watch them, especially the midnight show can maintain a good attendance .
In addition to the movie, they also popularized the actors signed by the two companies. The expected income of the two stars in the future is much better than the benefits brought by the success of the film!
The income of a movie is only for a period of time, but the income period of an actor, as long as it is squeezed properly, can continue to be squeezed for at least three to five years or even ten years.
For example, the company's popular signing actors start with at least five-year contracts. Assuming at least three to five films are made each year, almost twenty films can be made in five years.
Squeeze these actors with extremely low remuneration. Even if each movie can squeeze out a space of 100,000 yuan in terms of remuneration, 20 films are 2 million.
In addition to the effect of movie stars and their status in this industry, some Fox Films are not eligible for investment, or some popular movies that already have enough investors will also invest in Fox Films with the addition of movie stars. share.
Generally speaking, filmmaking has earned millions, but if the two signed stars do not destroy themselves, they will create at least tens of millions of dollars in value for the company in the future. Isn't this something to celebrate?
Three years ago, Fox and his son were still hiding in the basement by lending usury for a living. They were subjected to enormous psychological pressure and condemnation of conscience every day, scavenging some oil and water from those poor ghosts.
Old Fox worked for more than ten or twenty years to save less than two million.
But after they switched to filmmaking, in only three years, they had already made two or three times the profits of those ten or twenty years!
Some people say that illegal business is the most profitable, that must be because they have not found the right way to make money.
Lynch's footsteps paused for a while, and he smiled sincerely, "I didn't expect so many."
"You laughed so fake..." The two stayed at the door for a while, with a helpless expression on Fox's face, "We've really worked hard."
Lynch patted his arm and said with a smile, "I know, I understand, but congratulations..."
The two pushed the door and entered the house. There were many gentlemen in the living room, most of whom Lynch didn't know.
Under the introduction of Little Fox, he knew that these people are relatively high-ranking people in the film industry.
Either the producer, the management, or the famous director and the judges of major awards, are all very important people in this industry.
People tend to look surprised when they see Lynch, then turn to surprise.
"Mr. Lynch..."
"Nice to meet you, Mr. Lynch!"
…
These kinds of greetings kept ringing, and Lynch also greeted them cordially.
"Everyone is very enthusiastic!" Lynch whispered to Little Fox.
Little Fox smiled a little strangely, "You can feel a more enthusiastic atmosphere later!"
With Lynch's arrival, the party finally begins.
Little Fox and his butler whispered a few words, and soon there were some noises from the second floor, and then the guests on the first floor all looked towards the second floor.
At this moment, first, a group of girls who could not be more simple dressed ran down from the second floor waving their arms. Lynch had no impression of these girls, and his sensitivity to beauty was not high.
The ones that really had some impact were the vibrant bodies and the choppy waves.
Immediately after, some big boys also ran out. These big boys looked very handsome. They were wearing tight shorts, a fake collar and two fake sleeves. Other than that In a flash, they also ran down from the second floor waving their arms.
At this moment, the ladies and gentlemen on the first floor had smiles on their faces, that kind of smile that came from the heart.
A relaxing and enjoyable party!
At the party scene, Lynch found a very interesting picture performance. On one side, there were ladies and gentlemen in full clothes and leather shoes, and on the other side, some people seemed to be smiling, but they were actually smiling reluctantly. , girls and big boys who wear almost nothing.
Be it in the entertainment industry or in other industries, it is really difficult to get a high position.
There is never a shortage of outstanding people in this world. No one can say that they are the best in the world. Even if some people really do that, there will be latecomers surpassing them.
Since outstanding people are still working hard and are still ups and downs in society, what should those people who only have beautiful appearances and are very mediocre in other aspects do?
Society is fair, but sometimes this "fairness" is expressed in a way that is not very acceptable.
People can prove themselves through their own efforts, and they can also prove themselves through personal efforts. They are actually no different. The means they use are all from themselves, and there should be no difference between them.
A blushing girl in her early twenties ran to Lynch's side, wearing bunny ears that always reminded people of something.
She has long hair that hangs naturally on her chest, covering her underwear just right, making her look like she's not wearing anything at first.
She looked nervous, Lynch's status was too high, and she didn't know if she would be rejected.
This is also the sadness of this girl, or more girls, even if they are ready to dedicate themselves, they may not be admired by others.
Fortunately, Lynch is a real gentleman who knows how to take care of a girl's emotions.
He took the initiative to release his arm, giving the girl a chance to hold his forearm.
The girl breathed a sigh of relief, and the smile on Little Fox's face became wider.
Once Fox got in, his position became a bit awkward. The board forced him twice, but Lynch helped him deal with the greedy people on the board.
Lynch's indifference to the company's earnings and operations also gave Fox a sense of urgency.
His relationship with Lynch is actually not as good as the relationship between old Fox and Lynch, which makes him have a feeling of worrying about gains and losses, feeling that he may be "abandoned" by Lynch anytime, anywhere.
He needs to get closer to Lynch, at least Lynch won't suddenly disappear or sell his stock to others, so that he can stabilize his position in the company.
Give Lynch money, his money is not a fraction of Lynch's wealth, this way will definitely not work, then you can only use your own advantages.
After giving Lynch a smile everyone knew, he took the initiative to leave, saying that he wanted to entertain other guests.
But Lynch looked around the living room on the first floor, and it seemed that no one needed him to entertain.
Look at the playmates around the ladies and gentlemen. They can't wait to find a bed to solve their personal problems. Who wants little Fox to entertain them?
Lynch has no comment on his choice ~IndoMTL.com~ He also knows what Fox Jr. thinks.
Sometimes it's not "you asked for more" but "you rejected him".
Lynch smiled and turned to look at the girl beside him, "You seem nervous?"
Even through the expensive clothes, Lynch could feel the softness of the girl's delicate skin on his noble fabric, without the slightest stagnation, silky smooth.
The girl was already a little nervous, but when Lynch asked her, she became even more nervous, "I didn't... no, just a little bit."
She makes a gesture, barely seeing any gap between her thumb and index finger.
It seems that the girl looks very good, and her performance is a bit simple, but people in this industry must not just look at the surface, their acting skills are high.
"Are you a contracted movie star of the company?" Lynch asked as if he was chatting.
The girl nodded, "I signed a contract in the second half of last year..." She raised her head and looked at Lynch, but quickly looked away, "Also, I'm not a movie star, just an ordinary contracted actor."
Lynch stepped aside slightly, looked her up and down again, and made her turn around in a circle, which made the girl's face shy and a little pale.
"Your body looks great and beautiful, and you are good in every way, but there is a small flaw..." Lynch let the girl back to him again, and he casually ruffled the girl's hair tip, said.
