Chapter 374 Auction, Heart of the Ocean
Chapter 374 Auction, Heart of the Ocean (seeking monthly ticket for subscription)
Gu Chenfeng replied with a smile: "My wife, don't worry, before Disney's "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" was released at the global box office, I had already bought their company's stock, and I also mobilized some from the company. I also borrowed some shares of Disney theaters, and now I have prepared a total of 80 billion U.S. dollars.”
"Once I can win the shares of Heron Cinemas, I will be equivalent to owning the distribution channels of Disney, Paramount and Heron, which are the three major cinema chains. giant."
Hearing Gu Chenfeng's confident words, a smile appeared on Luo Qingcheng's face, and he said, "My husband, you are really good. I didn't expect that you are not only good at acting, singing, directing, etc., but also good at doing business." So powerful."
"No, no, no, I have another aspect that is more powerful, you understand!" Gu Chenfeng said with a smirk on his face.
"Go, go, go!" Hearing this, Luo Qingcheng matched with Gu Chenfeng's expression, and instantly thought of something, and blushed angrily.
"Hahaha!" Gu Chenfeng laughed loudly, and said, "My wife, just stay at home and take good care of the children, and go back after I finish the Helun Cinemas business."
"Okay!" Luo Qingcheng nodded.
All she can do for Gu Chenfeng now is to take good care of the children and sit at home to collect money.
After all, the proceeds from the two novels "Harry Potter" and "The Lord of the Rings" are all placed here with Luo Qingcheng. Although there are only two novels, the monthly income is very considerable.
Needless to say, the book "Harry Potter" can bring Luo Qingcheng at least nearly [-] million US dollars in income every month. Income of tens of millions of dollars.
In other words, Luo Qingcheng now earns millions of dollars sitting at home every day.
···
The next day, Gu Chenfeng sent Zhang Yimou and the crew of "Heroes" to the airport, and then Gu Chenfeng and Serna went to the auction site.
On the way, Gu Chenfeng said to Serna: "I am going to set up an investment company, are you interested in helping me?"
You must know that Selna is a lawyer, and strictly speaking, Gu Chenfeng is only her employer, but the meaning of Gu Chenfeng's words is obvious, that is, to recruit Selna to work for him.
Selna was taken aback when she heard the words, and said, "Boss, I'm just a lawyer, I only know a little about auditing, and I don't know how to invest."
Gu Chenfeng smiled and said: "I just asked you to do the audit. I will have more and more industries in the future. I must find a trustworthy person to help me watch. As for investment, I will find other People are responsible."
"Judging from our cooperation during this period of time, your character and ability are very good in all aspects, and I trust you very much."
Hearing Gu Chenfeng's words, Serna thought for a while and said, "Boss, how much salary are you going to pay me?"
Gu Chenfeng stretched out a finger and said: "No matter what your current salary is, as long as you come to help me, I will give you double the promotion, and this is not counted as a bonus."
You know, Selna's current annual salary is one million dollars. If it is doubled, it will be two million dollars, and there will be no bonuses. Anyone will be tempted by this.
After all, those who come out to work are all to make money. Who doesn't want to earn more?
Moreover, although she is working in the company now, all her work revolves around Gu Chenfeng, which is equivalent to working for Gu Chenfeng.
So, Selna immediately made a decision and said, "I will resign tomorrow."
"Okay!" Gu Chenfeng nodded, and continued: "After I bought the Helun Cinemas, I will have no money for the time being, so we need to set up an audit department first, and only do audit work for the time being. It’s all up to you.”
"After the funds are returned, I will look for some investment talents and set up an investment department."
Selna smiled and asked: "Then boss, when will you be able to get rich?"
Gu Chenfeng thought for a while, and said: "It will be the end of this year at the latest, and the capital chain will be straightened out by then. Don't worry, your benefits will be indispensable by then."
For Gu Chenfeng, he now has more than 11 bitcoins in his hands. By the end of the year, the price will not know where it will go. At that time, just sell some bitcoins and it will come back.
And I have other benefits, so there is no break in the capital chain.
If it weren't for the protection of other industries, Gu Chenfeng wouldn't dare to put all his eggs in one basket. After all, he still has family members and company employees to support.
"Thank you boss!" Selna thanked with a smile.
···
Soon, the two came to check in at a hotel not far from the auction venue. After checking in, Serna non-stop went to apply for a mortgage loan for Gu Chenfeng with the shares of Disney Cinemas.
High-quality assets worth more than 30 billion U.S. dollars were mortgaged to obtain 20 billion U.S. dollars in loans. This is a very good deal for any bank. Therefore, it only took Serna two days to complete the loan .
And Gu Chenfeng also mobilized 40 billion U.S. dollars from Qingchen Entertainment Company. After Gu Chenfeng exchanged 30 billion U.S. dollars to buy shares in Disney theaters, this time the process was also very smooth.
Moreover, the Department of Culture and the Department of Foreign Exchange are very supportive of Gu Chenfeng's re-investment in overseas theaters, so the speed is very fast.
Up to now, Gu Chenfeng has raised more than 80 billion U.S. dollars, and is preparing to buy Helun Cinemas.
Christie's auction house.
Gu Chenfeng and Serna exchanged invitations for two number plates, walked into the venue, and sat in the fifth row.
Coincidentally, next to them were David and another man who looked a lot like him. He looked about 70 or [-] years old, with a long white beard, and looked like a noble from the Lighthouse Kingdom.
As the so-called enemies meet, they are particularly jealous.
In the past few days, David has been quite miserable. After losing [-]% of Paramount's equity, he was scolded by the old man when he went home, and he strictly controlled all his expenses. .
As for Yang Jiao, the culprit of everything, she was directly kicked out by David's father.
Of course, Gu Chenfeng is naturally ignorant of these things, he has been planning his own affairs, and has no intention of paying attention to other things.
As soon as David came in from Gu Chenfeng, he stared at him with a pair of red eyes, never moving away, wishing he could eat him in one bite.
Jiao Didi's woman was gone, and I was scolded severely by Lao Tzu, all because of this Gu Chenfeng, it was simply too irritating.
Gu Chenfeng sat in his seat, glanced at David next to him, and said with a smile: "Mr. David, the two of us are really destined!"
David scolded in a low voice, "Gu, you..."
"David, is this your friend?" Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the old man with white beard next to him, and asked knowingly.
David gritted his teeth and replied, "Dad, he is Gu Chenfeng."
The white-bearded old man glanced at Gu Chenfeng, and said with a smirk: "Mr. Gu, I have known you for a long time, and your two movies "Iron Man" and "Inception" are very good, and I heard that "Iron Man" and "Inception" are very good. You also wrote Harry Potter and The Lord of the Rings, both of which are very good."
"Old Mr. Dai, thank you!" Gu Chenfeng really didn't know what the old man's name was, so he called him Old Dai directly. After all, he is David's father, so there is nothing wrong with this name.
In fact, the white-bearded old man, named Hopes David, is the founder of the Hopes Group, a shareholder of Paramount, and David's old man.
Hopes-David looked at Gu Chenfeng and said, "Paramount Pictures wants to buy the film copyright of "Lord of the Rings". I wonder if Mr. Gu will give it up?"
Gu Chenfeng said without hesitation: "I'm sorry, the current popularity of "The Lord of the Rings" is far from my goal, and it's not yet ready for filming."
Hopes. David said: "It has sold 500 million copies now, isn't it hot enough?"
Gu Chenfeng shrugged and said: "This is just the beginning, Mr. Hopps David, if you Paramount are really interested in "The Lord of the Rings", wait until its sales volume reaches 8000 million copies. , just contact me."
"Okay!" Hopps David took a deep look at Gu Chenfeng, then turned around without saying anything.
Gu Chenfeng's eyelids drooped slightly, and he secretly increased Hopps David's risk factor by three points. As the saying goes, a biting dog can't bark.
Being able to chat and laugh with someone who just won more than one billion US dollars, and didn't mention that matter at all, it can be seen that this Hopps David's city is far from being comparable to a person like David who likes to talk.
Insidiousness is the first impression that Hopps David gave Gu Chenfeng, but in the face of absolute strength, Gu Chenfeng is not afraid even if it is insidious.
The people who came to participate in the auction this time were basically the top tycoons in Hollywood, and most of them came for Helun Cinemas. It is so tempting that no one can resist its temptation.
At ten o'clock in the morning, the auction officially started.
One by one the precious auction items came up in turn, and everyone raised their placards to bid for the price. The atmosphere of the scene was very lively, but Gu Chenfeng was not interested, because his goal had always been Helun Cinemas.
However, it wasn't until the first lot of the finale appeared that Gu Chenfeng's eyes were finally attracted.
This is a necklace called "Heart of the Ocean". The pendant is a flawless ice-blue diamond weighing 464.21 carats at one moment. It is connected with a rose gold necklace and 99 white diamonds.
Even Gu Chenfeng, who didn't have any research on jewelry, had to admit after seeing this necklace that it was the most beautiful necklace he had ever seen, and it could be described as stunning.
Serna, who was sitting next to Gu Chenfeng, saw the "Heart of the Ocean" necklace, her eyes lit up, and she couldn't help admiring: "My God, this is so beautiful, if I can With this first practice, even if it makes me die immediately, it is worth it."
"They're all dead, what's the use of this necklace?" Gu Chenfeng joked with a smile.
Selna said coquettishly: "Boss, can you stop being so straight, this is just our women's pursuit of beauty, please don't spoil the atmosphere?"
Gu Chenfeng shrugged and said, "Okay!"
Not only Serna, but other famous ladies who came to the auction also fell in love with this beautiful necklace after seeing "Heart of the Ocean".
For good things, the starting price must be high. The starting price of "Heart of the Ocean" was 3000 million US dollars, but it was called 1 million US dollars in less than 5000 minute.
The previous asking prices are actually tentative, or some have no confidence, and the real asking prices are crazy, and they will only be sold later.
Sure enough, after the price reached 6000 million US dollars, the number of bidders gradually decreased. Then Gu Chenfeng raised the sign in his hand and called out: "500 million US dollars."
His voice sounded, and everyone in the auction hall turned their attention to Gu Chenfeng.
You must know that the price of one shot is 500 million US dollars, which is enough to show the wealth of this person.
"Damn it, who is this man!"
"Why have I never seen him?"
"Can you come up with 500 million US dollars casually? Then his family must be very rich."
"Who says it's not, at least it's worth more than a billion dollars!"
"···"
Everyone else at the scene started talking.
Serna, who was sitting next to Gu Chenfeng, saw that Gu Chenfeng made a move, and said happily, "Boss, after you take a picture of it, can you let me see it?"
"Of course!" Gu Chenfeng said with a smile.
At this moment, someone called again: "7000 million US dollars."
Gu Chenfeng shouted almost without any pause: "500 million dollars."
"Wow~~~" When Gu Chenfeng's voice fell, the audience was full of exclamations.
Compared with Gu Chenfeng's first asking price, this time it directly increased by 1000 million US dollars, and the original price increase of "Heart of the Ocean" was not less than 100 million US dollars, but Gu Chenfeng directly added 500 million US dollars .
Are you really not using dollars as money anymore?
"Is there a higher price than $500 million?"
"Anyone else bid more than $500 million?"
"···"
After asking three times in a row, the auctioneer found that no one had raised the price before dropping the hammer and said: "Okay, then let us congratulate Mr. Gu on the 88th for auctioning this priceless, beautiful round at a price of 500 million US dollars." Beautiful Heart of the Sea."
David, who was sitting on the other side of Gu Chenfeng, said with a sneer, "There's nothing to congratulate. A necklace with the highest value of 6000 million US dollars was photographed for 500 million US dollars. It's simply stupid."
Although his voice is not loud, and he speaks in English, but he and Gu Chenfeng are adjacent to each other, and Gu Chenfeng's hearing is far superior to ordinary people, so Gu Chenfeng is naturally I heard his words.
So he glanced at him, and said in a clear and unhurried voice: "Many beautiful things cannot be measured by money, just like this "Heart of the Ocean". If you miss it, it may be forever."
"What's more, when I bought this necklace, I didn't expect it to appreciate in value in the future. I bought it for my own wife and told her how much I love her."
"Necklaces have a price, but love is priceless."
"Papa papa!" Gu Chenfeng's voice fell, and there was warm applause at the scene.
After hearing Gu Chenfeng's words, the auctioneer on the stage clapped his hands and praised: "Mr. Gu said it very well. Necklaces have a price, but love is priceless. I believe that after your wife sees this necklace, You must be very happy."
Gu Chenfeng touched the tip of his nose, and said with a smile: "She is usually very happy, but when she sees this necklace, she must be even happier."
"Hahaha!" Everyone at the scene burst into laughter.
Only David's complexion was as ugly as if he had eaten Xiang, and he was very annoyed that Gu Chenfeng was recognized by everyone.
The second lot in Asia was a famous oil painting, which was bought by a rich man who was considered a top collector for US$[-] million.
In the end, it was [-]% of the shares of Helun Cinemas. When this came out, Gu Chenfeng clearly felt that many people sat up straight, and they were obviously about to make a move.
The auctioneer on the stage also said: "This is the last item in our auction, but it is not a thing, but a [-]% stake in Helun Cinemas."
"Because Western countries no longer allow the construction of theaters, getting shares in a certain theater is equivalent to getting a cash cow. The latest market value of Helun Cinemas is 590 billion U.S. dollars. According to the owner's request , the low price is 60 billion U.S. dollars.”
"Each price increase is no less than 5000 million U.S. dollars. Now, everyone can start bidding."
As soon as the auctioneer's voice fell, there was a cry of bidding.
"$60 million."
"61 billion."
"61 billion U.S. dollars."
"···"
In just a short while, the price has been raised to 65 billion US dollars. It is conceivable how much everyone values the [-]% stake in Helun Cinemas.
Seeing this, Selna directly raised her hand to cover her mouth, and exclaimed: "Oh my God, this is too crazy, it's already a [-]% premium!"
"There is an old saying in China that says that what is rare is the most precious!" Gu Chenfeng smiled and continued to explain: "A theater chain covering the whole world is enough to make any filmmaker or film company crazy about it. "
"Especially for some big film companies, if this theater line is acquired by them, it will have a huge impact on their film companies. The most intuitive thing is that their film companies will be affected by Hector With a [-]% stake in Lun Cinemas, the market value of the entire company will skyrocket."
"So now it's just small fights, and the most intense ones are yet to come."
This is indeed the case. It may seem that the premium is being auctioned now, but for those big film companies, the overflowing price, and after they buy it, is simply a drizzle for the company's stock price increase.
After listening to Gu Chenfeng's words, Selna said in fear after a while: "Boss, fortunately, you didn't listen to my report and only prepared 65 billion US dollars, otherwise, our visit today will be in vain!"
Gu Chenfeng said with serious eyes: "I hope the final price will not exceed 80 billion US dollars."
While the two were talking, the price of the 70% stake in Heron Cinemas had soared to [-] billion US dollars. Of course, this price was also a watershed moment, and many wealthy individuals had already started to retreat.
After all, they all have to consider their own income. If the return on investment period is too long and the income is too low, then they will definitely not go to wool.
Now only a few more powerful film companies are still bidding.
At this time, David, who was sitting next to Gu Chenfeng, suddenly raised the sign in his hand and shouted: "72 billion dollars!"
He raised the price again by $[-] million.
Now people from several film companies hesitated after seeing David and Hopes David next to him.
The auctioneer on the stage also raised his gavel and asked, "Mr. David bid $72 billion. Is there any price increase?"
"72 billion dollars once!"
"72 billion dollars twice!"
"73 billion!" Just as the auctioneer shouted for the second time, Gu Chenfeng smiled and shouted slowly.
"You~~~" David next to him heard Gu Chenfeng's bid, and the veins on his neck bulged out of anger. He turned his head and stared at him, wishing to eat his flesh and drink his blood.
Seeing this, Gu Chenfeng immediately raised his hand and shouted: "Auctioneer, I feel someone is threatening me, does your auction house care?"
The auctioneer's eyes were sharp and his ears were very flexible. After hearing Gu Chenfeng's words, he immediately looked at David and said to him: "Mr. David, the grievance between you and Mr. Gu is your own private matter, please Don't bring it into the auction house."
Hopes David touched David with his elbow, and said softly, "Keep adding."
David nodded upon hearing this, then gave Gu Chenfeng a vicious look, and shouted, "74 billion dollars."
Gu Chenfeng raised the sign in his hand without hesitation and shouted: "75 billion!"
Hopes David finally frowned, looked at Gu Chenfeng and said, "Mr. Gu, are you trying to fight us to the end?"
"Maybe!" Gu Chenfeng shrugged and replied indifferently.
"You..." Hopes David blushed angrily and said, "Okay, very good, let's see who can have the last laugh."
After speaking, David raised the sign again and shouted: "77 billion."
"78 billion!" Gu Chenfeng continued to raise the price without hesitation.
Hopps David also continued to increase the price, saying: "79 billion, this is my last bid. If Mr. Gu is willing to pay a premium of 20 billion US dollars, then..."
"80 billion U.S. dollars!" However, before he finished speaking, Gu Chenfeng had already raised the sign in his hand to bid for the price, and then said: "Mr. Hopps David, your scheming is completely useless to me." use."
"As long as it is something I want, no matter how much money I spend, I will get it."
This time, Hopps David finally realized the anger, helplessness and depression in his son's heart when he faced Gu Chenfeng. This is not an internationally renowned star. The bastard, but he still speaks so annoyingly, and he's still a rich man.
Seeing that David and his son had died down, the auctioneer called out at the right time: "Is there any price higher than US$80 billion?"
"80 billion dollars once!"
"80 billion dollars, twice!"
"Eight billion US dollars three times, deal!"
"Congratulations to Mr. Gu for becoming the largest shareholder of Helun Cinemas."
Hearing the auctioneer's words, Gu Chenfeng was taken aback for a moment, and quickly asked Serna beside him, "Serna, is a [-]% stake already the largest shareholder of Helun Cinemas?"
"Yes, boss!" Selna nodded and explained: "The market value of Helun Cinemas is really too high. There are 26 shareholders in total, and the second largest shareholder only holds 7.2% of the shares. So boss, you If you get 10% of the shares, you will naturally be the largest shareholder."
"Oh!" Gu Chenfeng smiled and said, "This is really a surprise!"
After the auction of Helun Cinemas' shares was over, the entire Christie's auction also came to an end.
After paying the money, Gu Chenfeng left the auction site with "Heart of the Ocean" and the share transfer agreement of Helun Cinemas.
On the way back, Serna looked at Gu Chenfeng and said, "Boss, you now own the shares of Disney Cinemas, Paramount Cinemas, and Heron Cinemas, and I think it is necessary to integrate them as soon as possible." .”
Gu Chenfeng smiled and nodded, and said: "Yes, this is why I set up an investment company. This is just the beginning. Selna, find me a reliable headhunting company. To select some people to join the company."
"Then apply for a business license and set up an investment company."
"Okay!" Selna made an OK gesture and said with a smile.
Gu Chenfeng continued: "As for your salary, the annual salary is tentatively set at 200 million U.S. dollars, and the bonus is not included. I said this before. After the investment company is on the right track, I will give you the company's shares."
Hearing Gu Chenfeng's words, Serna's eyes lit up immediately, and she said excitedly, "Boss, don't worry, I will definitely do a good job."
No wonder she was so excited. Ever since she got acquainted with Gu Chenfeng, she has witnessed Gu Chenfeng's ability to make money. Just two novels have earned 20 billion US dollars, and she even used one novel to acquire shares in Disney theaters. .
Of course, none of these can directly prove Gu Chenfeng's business vision. What shocked Serna the most is that Gu Chenfeng's investment in Bitcoin is the most profitable operation.
And now that Gu Chenfeng owns the shares of three cinema chains, and with the bitcoin he owns, his investment company will inevitably reach billions or even tens of billions of dollars in the future.
Even if Selna only owns [-]% of the shares, the annual profit will be tens of millions, which is much higher than her current income.
In the next few days, Gu Chenfeng began to be busy with the preparations for Qingchen Investment Company. He was mainly responsible for selecting people and interviewing.
After careful selection, Gu Chenfeng determined that they were experienced financial personnel. These people's abilities and talents are quite good, but the most important thing is their character.
After all, Gu Chenfeng's company will be mainly responsible for some overseas investments in the future, and the funds involved will be relatively large, so character is the key.
Gu Chenfeng also found a special person to investigate the 20 people who have passed the interview. As long as ordinary people can be retained as the middle management, the initial framework of the company will be established.
However, the investigation will take some time. Gu Chenfeng did not wait in the lighthouse country, but flew directly back to the gold market.
At this time, it was already summer vacation, and there were only three days left before Gu Chenfeng's scheduled "Changjin Lake" started.
This time, Gu Chenfeng did not ask Zhang Qingqing from Qingcheng Entertainment Company to pick her up, because Luo Qingcheng said that she would come pick her up in person. If there is a wife to pick her up, of course there is no need for a manager.
In the car, Luo Qingcheng sat in the back row, and served Gu Chenfeng a cup of tea in a very virtuous manner. This was specially brewed before she came to the airport. After handing it over, she asked, "Honey, I'm all done now." ?"
"Well, things in the Lighthouse Country are already busy." Gu Chenfeng took the tea cup and replied: "I now have theaters covering the world, and no one can stop our Huaguo movies from going global. gone."
Luo Qingcheng nodded, and said: "Yes, it's just that the premium is 20 billion US dollars, when will I be able to earn it back?"
She never questioned any decision Gu Chenfeng made, but she still felt a little distressed for giving someone an extra 20 billion US dollars for no reason.
Although she has never been short of money now, who would think that she has too much money?
Gu Chenfeng was taken aback when he heard the words, and after taking a sip of tea, he smiled and said, "Honey, since when have you been so obsessed with money? In fact, I'm grasping the general trend now, as long as I grasp it, the money will come rolling in." .”
"Okay!" Luo Qingcheng nodded with a half understanding.
Anyway, the money has already been spent, so she just complained a little bit, and didn't blame Gu Chenfeng for anything.
At this moment, Gu Chenfeng's cell phone rang, and when he picked it up, it was Yang Mi calling.
Gu Chenfeng thought for a while, then answered the channel: "Mr. Yang, is there anything you need to call me at this time?"
"I'm here to thank Teacher Gu!" Yang Mi said with a smile on the other end of the phone.
Gu Chenfeng was taken aback for a moment, then thought of something, and said with a smile: "That's right, I haven't congratulated Mr. Yang on his success yet!"
Yang Mi smiled and said, "It's all thanks to Teacher Gu's help!"
After "Hero" was released in Europe and the United States, although the promotion of this martial arts film was not very good, the word of mouth was not bad, and the box office was not bad.
The freshness of Rotten Tomatoes reached 91 points, which directly made many overseas movie fans boil.
Seeing this, Yang Mi added another 1000 million US dollars in publicity expenses, and even directly found more than 20 navy teams to carry out a network-wide publicity, and the effect was absolutely leveraged.
In the four days since its release, the box office of "Hero" has reached 5.24 million U.S. dollars, ranking first among the movies released in the same period.
With her amazing beauty and superb acting skills, Yang Mi has also become popular overseas. So far, Jiaxin Entertainment Company has two overseas hot stars, Yang Mi and Reba.
After Yang Mi became popular overseas, many big brands have found her agent, wanting Yang Mi to endorse their products, but Yang Mi only chose a few big domestic brands.
At this time, Gu Chenfeng said again: "When I came back, Disney Films predicted that the overseas box office of "Hero" should reach between US$15 billion and US$20 billion."
"If you add online copyright and peripherals, it should be no problem to break through 20 billion US dollars."
Yang Mi on the other end of the phone became even more excited after hearing Gu Chenfeng's words, and said excitedly: "So, "Hero" really succeeded?"
"It's a success now, Mr. Yang!" Gu Chenfeng said a little speechlessly.
However, he also understands that before this, all the films that were successful in overseas film circles were made by Gu Chenfeng, and basically none of the films of other people had succeeded. Wind's film Accident, the second overseas success.
The first one is of course the movie directed by Li Lan a long time ago.
Afterwards, Gu Chenfeng chatted with Yang Mi for a few more words before hanging up the phone.
As for the conversation between the two just now, Luo Qingcheng heard it very clearly. After seeing Gu Chenfeng hang up the phone, Luo Qingcheng asked: "Husband, you said that the "Changjin Lake" you are going to shoot next can be done?" Will it make $20 billion at the global box office?"
Previously, Gu Chenfeng's films, as long as they were released around the world, basically had a box office of more than 20 billion, or even 30 billion US dollars, but those films were all sci-fi or animation films.
But this time Gu Chenfeng filmed a movie about the Anti-Japanese War, Luo Qingcheng was really worried.
Gu Chenfeng heard the words and said confidently: "Don't worry, my wife, any movie will not be too bad. Although I debuted relatively late in the director industry, I believe that my first movie It can reach the achievement of tens of billions of directors."
In the actor industry before, Gu Chenfeng's box office has accumulated to tens of billions, and he has also won the domestic grand slam best actor, but the only pity is that he did not win the Oscar best actor.
In fact, the two films "Iron Man" and "Inception" have great opportunities, and when they were on earth, the starring roles of these two films were successful.
But in this world, perhaps because Gu Chenfeng is a native of China, the Oscars did not nominate him for Best Actor.
Looking at the confident Gu Chenfeng, Luo Qingcheng showed a charming smile, leaned into his arms, and said, "My husband, I believe in you."
Soon the car stopped firmly at the villa.
Gu Chenfeng carried his suitcase and handbag, took Luo Qingcheng's hand and went back to the room.
Back in the room, Gu Chenfeng took out an exquisite jewelry box from his handbag and said, "Honey, I have a gift for you."
Luo Qingcheng sat up straight with surprise on his face when he heard the words, and asked very curiously: "What?"
Gu Chenfeng handed the jewelry box to Luo Qingcheng and said, "Open it and have a look!"
Luo Qingcheng took the jewelry box and opened it. Suddenly, a ray of sea blue light flashed in front of her eyes, and an extremely exquisite necklace lay quietly in the jewelry box.
"Wow, so beautiful!" Luo Qingcheng exclaimed involuntarily.
Gu Chenfeng said with a smile: "Its name is "Heart of the Ocean"."
Luo Qingcheng carefully picked up the necklace and looked it over carefully, her joy was beyond words.
Staring at the necklace intently, he asked, "Honey, how much does such a beautiful necklace cost?"
Luo Qingcheng is also the eldest daughter of a wealthy family, and her parents are also jade merchants worth billions. She has a very high appreciation ability for these jewelry.
So she saw the extraordinaryness of this necklace at a glance.
Gu Chenfeng said: "As long as you like it, it's fine, why do you care how much it costs?"
"Huh?" Luo Qingcheng raised her head when she heard the words, and said, "You don't even want to tell me the price, it seems that this necklace is not cheap, but the more you don't tell me, the more curious I become, just tell me, How much is it?"
Seeing Luo Qingcheng's coquettish appearance, Gu Chenfeng couldn't hold on any longer, and said, "Actually, it's not much money, just over 7000 million US dollars."
"What? More than 7000 million... US dollars... just to pay back?" Luo Qingcheng was trembling physically and mentally, and his words were a little stuttering, and said: "You...you are...too willing!"
Gu Chenfeng said with a smile: "Flawless sea-blue diamonds over 460 carats are rare in the world. Since I have seen them all, it would be a pity if I didn't buy them back and give them to you!"
"Come on, let me put it on for you!"
While speaking, Gu Chenfeng pulled Luo Qingcheng to the front of the mirror, and then put "Heart of the Ocean" on Luo Qingcheng's white jade neck.
He sincerely praised: "Such a beautiful necklace is the best match only if it is worn on my wife's neck."
Luo Qingcheng also stared at the mirror for a long time, the more he looked more satisfied, then he turned around and put his arms around Gu Chenfeng's neck, and said, "My husband, thank you."
"I love you!"
Gu Chenfeng hugged Luo Qingcheng, leaned close to her ear and said, "Love, you can't just say it with your mouth."
"Ah~~" Luo Qingcheng felt as if she had been fooled, and her cheeks became hot instantly.
It's broad daylight...
An hour and a half later, Gu Chenfeng and the radiant Luo Qingcheng went downstairs to have dinner together.
Fortunately, in the middle of the journey, He Xiujuan carried Xiao Tianqi for a walk in the backyard and didn't bother her, otherwise it would be embarrassing.
After the family finished their meal happily, Gu Chenfeng held Xiao Tianqi and played at home for a while.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Gu Chenfeng arrived at the company and called all the main creators of the "Changjin Lake" crew together.
Gu Chenfeng sat on the first seat, looked at the people below and said, "Everyone, I'm very sorry. Due to my personal reasons, I had to deal with some matters in the Lighthouse Country, which delayed the preparations for the crew of "Changjin Lake" .”
"Fortunately, everyone is very supportive and has done a very good job in all aspects, especially Mr. Tan from Bayi Studio. In the past period of time, he has paid a lot for the crew."
That's right, Mr. Tan is the supervisor from the military camp. After all, this movie has a lot to do with it, and the higher-ups must send someone over to watch it.
Of course, he is also a producer. After all, the higher-ups also invested 15.00% of the shares in "Changjin Lake", but the biggest producer is still Zhang Qingqing, because Qingchen Entertainment accounted for most of the investment.
As for Wang Yao's [-]% investment, she didn't send anyone over, which shows her trust in Gu Chenfeng.
"Of course, Director Zhuo, Director Chen, and Director Xu also worked very hard."
Gu Chenfeng continued: "In this film, besides me, there are three other directors. Everyone knows these three directors. I hope that in the next filming, everyone can work together."
(End of this chapter)
Gu Chenfeng replied with a smile: "My wife, don't worry, before Disney's "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" was released at the global box office, I had already bought their company's stock, and I also mobilized some from the company. I also borrowed some shares of Disney theaters, and now I have prepared a total of 80 billion U.S. dollars.”
"Once I can win the shares of Heron Cinemas, I will be equivalent to owning the distribution channels of Disney, Paramount and Heron, which are the three major cinema chains. giant."
Hearing Gu Chenfeng's confident words, a smile appeared on Luo Qingcheng's face, and he said, "My husband, you are really good. I didn't expect that you are not only good at acting, singing, directing, etc., but also good at doing business." So powerful."
"No, no, no, I have another aspect that is more powerful, you understand!" Gu Chenfeng said with a smirk on his face.
"Go, go, go!" Hearing this, Luo Qingcheng matched with Gu Chenfeng's expression, and instantly thought of something, and blushed angrily.
"Hahaha!" Gu Chenfeng laughed loudly, and said, "My wife, just stay at home and take good care of the children, and go back after I finish the Helun Cinemas business."
"Okay!" Luo Qingcheng nodded.
All she can do for Gu Chenfeng now is to take good care of the children and sit at home to collect money.
After all, the proceeds from the two novels "Harry Potter" and "The Lord of the Rings" are all placed here with Luo Qingcheng. Although there are only two novels, the monthly income is very considerable.
Needless to say, the book "Harry Potter" can bring Luo Qingcheng at least nearly [-] million US dollars in income every month. Income of tens of millions of dollars.
In other words, Luo Qingcheng now earns millions of dollars sitting at home every day.
···
The next day, Gu Chenfeng sent Zhang Yimou and the crew of "Heroes" to the airport, and then Gu Chenfeng and Serna went to the auction site.
On the way, Gu Chenfeng said to Serna: "I am going to set up an investment company, are you interested in helping me?"
You must know that Selna is a lawyer, and strictly speaking, Gu Chenfeng is only her employer, but the meaning of Gu Chenfeng's words is obvious, that is, to recruit Selna to work for him.
Selna was taken aback when she heard the words, and said, "Boss, I'm just a lawyer, I only know a little about auditing, and I don't know how to invest."
Gu Chenfeng smiled and said: "I just asked you to do the audit. I will have more and more industries in the future. I must find a trustworthy person to help me watch. As for investment, I will find other People are responsible."
"Judging from our cooperation during this period of time, your character and ability are very good in all aspects, and I trust you very much."
Hearing Gu Chenfeng's words, Serna thought for a while and said, "Boss, how much salary are you going to pay me?"
Gu Chenfeng stretched out a finger and said: "No matter what your current salary is, as long as you come to help me, I will give you double the promotion, and this is not counted as a bonus."
You know, Selna's current annual salary is one million dollars. If it is doubled, it will be two million dollars, and there will be no bonuses. Anyone will be tempted by this.
After all, those who come out to work are all to make money. Who doesn't want to earn more?
Moreover, although she is working in the company now, all her work revolves around Gu Chenfeng, which is equivalent to working for Gu Chenfeng.
So, Selna immediately made a decision and said, "I will resign tomorrow."
"Okay!" Gu Chenfeng nodded, and continued: "After I bought the Helun Cinemas, I will have no money for the time being, so we need to set up an audit department first, and only do audit work for the time being. It’s all up to you.”
"After the funds are returned, I will look for some investment talents and set up an investment department."
Selna smiled and asked: "Then boss, when will you be able to get rich?"
Gu Chenfeng thought for a while, and said: "It will be the end of this year at the latest, and the capital chain will be straightened out by then. Don't worry, your benefits will be indispensable by then."
For Gu Chenfeng, he now has more than 11 bitcoins in his hands. By the end of the year, the price will not know where it will go. At that time, just sell some bitcoins and it will come back.
And I have other benefits, so there is no break in the capital chain.
If it weren't for the protection of other industries, Gu Chenfeng wouldn't dare to put all his eggs in one basket. After all, he still has family members and company employees to support.
"Thank you boss!" Selna thanked with a smile.
···
Soon, the two came to check in at a hotel not far from the auction venue. After checking in, Serna non-stop went to apply for a mortgage loan for Gu Chenfeng with the shares of Disney Cinemas.
High-quality assets worth more than 30 billion U.S. dollars were mortgaged to obtain 20 billion U.S. dollars in loans. This is a very good deal for any bank. Therefore, it only took Serna two days to complete the loan .
And Gu Chenfeng also mobilized 40 billion U.S. dollars from Qingchen Entertainment Company. After Gu Chenfeng exchanged 30 billion U.S. dollars to buy shares in Disney theaters, this time the process was also very smooth.
Moreover, the Department of Culture and the Department of Foreign Exchange are very supportive of Gu Chenfeng's re-investment in overseas theaters, so the speed is very fast.
Up to now, Gu Chenfeng has raised more than 80 billion U.S. dollars, and is preparing to buy Helun Cinemas.
Christie's auction house.
Gu Chenfeng and Serna exchanged invitations for two number plates, walked into the venue, and sat in the fifth row.
Coincidentally, next to them were David and another man who looked a lot like him. He looked about 70 or [-] years old, with a long white beard, and looked like a noble from the Lighthouse Kingdom.
As the so-called enemies meet, they are particularly jealous.
In the past few days, David has been quite miserable. After losing [-]% of Paramount's equity, he was scolded by the old man when he went home, and he strictly controlled all his expenses. .
As for Yang Jiao, the culprit of everything, she was directly kicked out by David's father.
Of course, Gu Chenfeng is naturally ignorant of these things, he has been planning his own affairs, and has no intention of paying attention to other things.
As soon as David came in from Gu Chenfeng, he stared at him with a pair of red eyes, never moving away, wishing he could eat him in one bite.
Jiao Didi's woman was gone, and I was scolded severely by Lao Tzu, all because of this Gu Chenfeng, it was simply too irritating.
Gu Chenfeng sat in his seat, glanced at David next to him, and said with a smile: "Mr. David, the two of us are really destined!"
David scolded in a low voice, "Gu, you..."
"David, is this your friend?" Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the old man with white beard next to him, and asked knowingly.
David gritted his teeth and replied, "Dad, he is Gu Chenfeng."
The white-bearded old man glanced at Gu Chenfeng, and said with a smirk: "Mr. Gu, I have known you for a long time, and your two movies "Iron Man" and "Inception" are very good, and I heard that "Iron Man" and "Inception" are very good. You also wrote Harry Potter and The Lord of the Rings, both of which are very good."
"Old Mr. Dai, thank you!" Gu Chenfeng really didn't know what the old man's name was, so he called him Old Dai directly. After all, he is David's father, so there is nothing wrong with this name.
In fact, the white-bearded old man, named Hopes David, is the founder of the Hopes Group, a shareholder of Paramount, and David's old man.
Hopes-David looked at Gu Chenfeng and said, "Paramount Pictures wants to buy the film copyright of "Lord of the Rings". I wonder if Mr. Gu will give it up?"
Gu Chenfeng said without hesitation: "I'm sorry, the current popularity of "The Lord of the Rings" is far from my goal, and it's not yet ready for filming."
Hopes. David said: "It has sold 500 million copies now, isn't it hot enough?"
Gu Chenfeng shrugged and said: "This is just the beginning, Mr. Hopps David, if you Paramount are really interested in "The Lord of the Rings", wait until its sales volume reaches 8000 million copies. , just contact me."
"Okay!" Hopps David took a deep look at Gu Chenfeng, then turned around without saying anything.
Gu Chenfeng's eyelids drooped slightly, and he secretly increased Hopps David's risk factor by three points. As the saying goes, a biting dog can't bark.
Being able to chat and laugh with someone who just won more than one billion US dollars, and didn't mention that matter at all, it can be seen that this Hopps David's city is far from being comparable to a person like David who likes to talk.
Insidiousness is the first impression that Hopps David gave Gu Chenfeng, but in the face of absolute strength, Gu Chenfeng is not afraid even if it is insidious.
The people who came to participate in the auction this time were basically the top tycoons in Hollywood, and most of them came for Helun Cinemas. It is so tempting that no one can resist its temptation.
At ten o'clock in the morning, the auction officially started.
One by one the precious auction items came up in turn, and everyone raised their placards to bid for the price. The atmosphere of the scene was very lively, but Gu Chenfeng was not interested, because his goal had always been Helun Cinemas.
However, it wasn't until the first lot of the finale appeared that Gu Chenfeng's eyes were finally attracted.
This is a necklace called "Heart of the Ocean". The pendant is a flawless ice-blue diamond weighing 464.21 carats at one moment. It is connected with a rose gold necklace and 99 white diamonds.
Even Gu Chenfeng, who didn't have any research on jewelry, had to admit after seeing this necklace that it was the most beautiful necklace he had ever seen, and it could be described as stunning.
Serna, who was sitting next to Gu Chenfeng, saw the "Heart of the Ocean" necklace, her eyes lit up, and she couldn't help admiring: "My God, this is so beautiful, if I can With this first practice, even if it makes me die immediately, it is worth it."
"They're all dead, what's the use of this necklace?" Gu Chenfeng joked with a smile.
Selna said coquettishly: "Boss, can you stop being so straight, this is just our women's pursuit of beauty, please don't spoil the atmosphere?"
Gu Chenfeng shrugged and said, "Okay!"
Not only Serna, but other famous ladies who came to the auction also fell in love with this beautiful necklace after seeing "Heart of the Ocean".
For good things, the starting price must be high. The starting price of "Heart of the Ocean" was 3000 million US dollars, but it was called 1 million US dollars in less than 5000 minute.
The previous asking prices are actually tentative, or some have no confidence, and the real asking prices are crazy, and they will only be sold later.
Sure enough, after the price reached 6000 million US dollars, the number of bidders gradually decreased. Then Gu Chenfeng raised the sign in his hand and called out: "500 million US dollars."
His voice sounded, and everyone in the auction hall turned their attention to Gu Chenfeng.
You must know that the price of one shot is 500 million US dollars, which is enough to show the wealth of this person.
"Damn it, who is this man!"
"Why have I never seen him?"
"Can you come up with 500 million US dollars casually? Then his family must be very rich."
"Who says it's not, at least it's worth more than a billion dollars!"
"···"
Everyone else at the scene started talking.
Serna, who was sitting next to Gu Chenfeng, saw that Gu Chenfeng made a move, and said happily, "Boss, after you take a picture of it, can you let me see it?"
"Of course!" Gu Chenfeng said with a smile.
At this moment, someone called again: "7000 million US dollars."
Gu Chenfeng shouted almost without any pause: "500 million dollars."
"Wow~~~" When Gu Chenfeng's voice fell, the audience was full of exclamations.
Compared with Gu Chenfeng's first asking price, this time it directly increased by 1000 million US dollars, and the original price increase of "Heart of the Ocean" was not less than 100 million US dollars, but Gu Chenfeng directly added 500 million US dollars .
Are you really not using dollars as money anymore?
"Is there a higher price than $500 million?"
"Anyone else bid more than $500 million?"
"···"
After asking three times in a row, the auctioneer found that no one had raised the price before dropping the hammer and said: "Okay, then let us congratulate Mr. Gu on the 88th for auctioning this priceless, beautiful round at a price of 500 million US dollars." Beautiful Heart of the Sea."
David, who was sitting on the other side of Gu Chenfeng, said with a sneer, "There's nothing to congratulate. A necklace with the highest value of 6000 million US dollars was photographed for 500 million US dollars. It's simply stupid."
Although his voice is not loud, and he speaks in English, but he and Gu Chenfeng are adjacent to each other, and Gu Chenfeng's hearing is far superior to ordinary people, so Gu Chenfeng is naturally I heard his words.
So he glanced at him, and said in a clear and unhurried voice: "Many beautiful things cannot be measured by money, just like this "Heart of the Ocean". If you miss it, it may be forever."
"What's more, when I bought this necklace, I didn't expect it to appreciate in value in the future. I bought it for my own wife and told her how much I love her."
"Necklaces have a price, but love is priceless."
"Papa papa!" Gu Chenfeng's voice fell, and there was warm applause at the scene.
After hearing Gu Chenfeng's words, the auctioneer on the stage clapped his hands and praised: "Mr. Gu said it very well. Necklaces have a price, but love is priceless. I believe that after your wife sees this necklace, You must be very happy."
Gu Chenfeng touched the tip of his nose, and said with a smile: "She is usually very happy, but when she sees this necklace, she must be even happier."
"Hahaha!" Everyone at the scene burst into laughter.
Only David's complexion was as ugly as if he had eaten Xiang, and he was very annoyed that Gu Chenfeng was recognized by everyone.
The second lot in Asia was a famous oil painting, which was bought by a rich man who was considered a top collector for US$[-] million.
In the end, it was [-]% of the shares of Helun Cinemas. When this came out, Gu Chenfeng clearly felt that many people sat up straight, and they were obviously about to make a move.
The auctioneer on the stage also said: "This is the last item in our auction, but it is not a thing, but a [-]% stake in Helun Cinemas."
"Because Western countries no longer allow the construction of theaters, getting shares in a certain theater is equivalent to getting a cash cow. The latest market value of Helun Cinemas is 590 billion U.S. dollars. According to the owner's request , the low price is 60 billion U.S. dollars.”
"Each price increase is no less than 5000 million U.S. dollars. Now, everyone can start bidding."
As soon as the auctioneer's voice fell, there was a cry of bidding.
"$60 million."
"61 billion."
"61 billion U.S. dollars."
"···"
In just a short while, the price has been raised to 65 billion US dollars. It is conceivable how much everyone values the [-]% stake in Helun Cinemas.
Seeing this, Selna directly raised her hand to cover her mouth, and exclaimed: "Oh my God, this is too crazy, it's already a [-]% premium!"
"There is an old saying in China that says that what is rare is the most precious!" Gu Chenfeng smiled and continued to explain: "A theater chain covering the whole world is enough to make any filmmaker or film company crazy about it. "
"Especially for some big film companies, if this theater line is acquired by them, it will have a huge impact on their film companies. The most intuitive thing is that their film companies will be affected by Hector With a [-]% stake in Lun Cinemas, the market value of the entire company will skyrocket."
"So now it's just small fights, and the most intense ones are yet to come."
This is indeed the case. It may seem that the premium is being auctioned now, but for those big film companies, the overflowing price, and after they buy it, is simply a drizzle for the company's stock price increase.
After listening to Gu Chenfeng's words, Selna said in fear after a while: "Boss, fortunately, you didn't listen to my report and only prepared 65 billion US dollars, otherwise, our visit today will be in vain!"
Gu Chenfeng said with serious eyes: "I hope the final price will not exceed 80 billion US dollars."
While the two were talking, the price of the 70% stake in Heron Cinemas had soared to [-] billion US dollars. Of course, this price was also a watershed moment, and many wealthy individuals had already started to retreat.
After all, they all have to consider their own income. If the return on investment period is too long and the income is too low, then they will definitely not go to wool.
Now only a few more powerful film companies are still bidding.
At this time, David, who was sitting next to Gu Chenfeng, suddenly raised the sign in his hand and shouted: "72 billion dollars!"
He raised the price again by $[-] million.
Now people from several film companies hesitated after seeing David and Hopes David next to him.
The auctioneer on the stage also raised his gavel and asked, "Mr. David bid $72 billion. Is there any price increase?"
"72 billion dollars once!"
"72 billion dollars twice!"
"73 billion!" Just as the auctioneer shouted for the second time, Gu Chenfeng smiled and shouted slowly.
"You~~~" David next to him heard Gu Chenfeng's bid, and the veins on his neck bulged out of anger. He turned his head and stared at him, wishing to eat his flesh and drink his blood.
Seeing this, Gu Chenfeng immediately raised his hand and shouted: "Auctioneer, I feel someone is threatening me, does your auction house care?"
The auctioneer's eyes were sharp and his ears were very flexible. After hearing Gu Chenfeng's words, he immediately looked at David and said to him: "Mr. David, the grievance between you and Mr. Gu is your own private matter, please Don't bring it into the auction house."
Hopes David touched David with his elbow, and said softly, "Keep adding."
David nodded upon hearing this, then gave Gu Chenfeng a vicious look, and shouted, "74 billion dollars."
Gu Chenfeng raised the sign in his hand without hesitation and shouted: "75 billion!"
Hopes David finally frowned, looked at Gu Chenfeng and said, "Mr. Gu, are you trying to fight us to the end?"
"Maybe!" Gu Chenfeng shrugged and replied indifferently.
"You..." Hopes David blushed angrily and said, "Okay, very good, let's see who can have the last laugh."
After speaking, David raised the sign again and shouted: "77 billion."
"78 billion!" Gu Chenfeng continued to raise the price without hesitation.
Hopps David also continued to increase the price, saying: "79 billion, this is my last bid. If Mr. Gu is willing to pay a premium of 20 billion US dollars, then..."
"80 billion U.S. dollars!" However, before he finished speaking, Gu Chenfeng had already raised the sign in his hand to bid for the price, and then said: "Mr. Hopps David, your scheming is completely useless to me." use."
"As long as it is something I want, no matter how much money I spend, I will get it."
This time, Hopps David finally realized the anger, helplessness and depression in his son's heart when he faced Gu Chenfeng. This is not an internationally renowned star. The bastard, but he still speaks so annoyingly, and he's still a rich man.
Seeing that David and his son had died down, the auctioneer called out at the right time: "Is there any price higher than US$80 billion?"
"80 billion dollars once!"
"80 billion dollars, twice!"
"Eight billion US dollars three times, deal!"
"Congratulations to Mr. Gu for becoming the largest shareholder of Helun Cinemas."
Hearing the auctioneer's words, Gu Chenfeng was taken aback for a moment, and quickly asked Serna beside him, "Serna, is a [-]% stake already the largest shareholder of Helun Cinemas?"
"Yes, boss!" Selna nodded and explained: "The market value of Helun Cinemas is really too high. There are 26 shareholders in total, and the second largest shareholder only holds 7.2% of the shares. So boss, you If you get 10% of the shares, you will naturally be the largest shareholder."
"Oh!" Gu Chenfeng smiled and said, "This is really a surprise!"
After the auction of Helun Cinemas' shares was over, the entire Christie's auction also came to an end.
After paying the money, Gu Chenfeng left the auction site with "Heart of the Ocean" and the share transfer agreement of Helun Cinemas.
On the way back, Serna looked at Gu Chenfeng and said, "Boss, you now own the shares of Disney Cinemas, Paramount Cinemas, and Heron Cinemas, and I think it is necessary to integrate them as soon as possible." .”
Gu Chenfeng smiled and nodded, and said: "Yes, this is why I set up an investment company. This is just the beginning. Selna, find me a reliable headhunting company. To select some people to join the company."
"Then apply for a business license and set up an investment company."
"Okay!" Selna made an OK gesture and said with a smile.
Gu Chenfeng continued: "As for your salary, the annual salary is tentatively set at 200 million U.S. dollars, and the bonus is not included. I said this before. After the investment company is on the right track, I will give you the company's shares."
Hearing Gu Chenfeng's words, Serna's eyes lit up immediately, and she said excitedly, "Boss, don't worry, I will definitely do a good job."
No wonder she was so excited. Ever since she got acquainted with Gu Chenfeng, she has witnessed Gu Chenfeng's ability to make money. Just two novels have earned 20 billion US dollars, and she even used one novel to acquire shares in Disney theaters. .
Of course, none of these can directly prove Gu Chenfeng's business vision. What shocked Serna the most is that Gu Chenfeng's investment in Bitcoin is the most profitable operation.
And now that Gu Chenfeng owns the shares of three cinema chains, and with the bitcoin he owns, his investment company will inevitably reach billions or even tens of billions of dollars in the future.
Even if Selna only owns [-]% of the shares, the annual profit will be tens of millions, which is much higher than her current income.
In the next few days, Gu Chenfeng began to be busy with the preparations for Qingchen Investment Company. He was mainly responsible for selecting people and interviewing.
After careful selection, Gu Chenfeng determined that they were experienced financial personnel. These people's abilities and talents are quite good, but the most important thing is their character.
After all, Gu Chenfeng's company will be mainly responsible for some overseas investments in the future, and the funds involved will be relatively large, so character is the key.
Gu Chenfeng also found a special person to investigate the 20 people who have passed the interview. As long as ordinary people can be retained as the middle management, the initial framework of the company will be established.
However, the investigation will take some time. Gu Chenfeng did not wait in the lighthouse country, but flew directly back to the gold market.
At this time, it was already summer vacation, and there were only three days left before Gu Chenfeng's scheduled "Changjin Lake" started.
This time, Gu Chenfeng did not ask Zhang Qingqing from Qingcheng Entertainment Company to pick her up, because Luo Qingcheng said that she would come pick her up in person. If there is a wife to pick her up, of course there is no need for a manager.
In the car, Luo Qingcheng sat in the back row, and served Gu Chenfeng a cup of tea in a very virtuous manner. This was specially brewed before she came to the airport. After handing it over, she asked, "Honey, I'm all done now." ?"
"Well, things in the Lighthouse Country are already busy." Gu Chenfeng took the tea cup and replied: "I now have theaters covering the world, and no one can stop our Huaguo movies from going global. gone."
Luo Qingcheng nodded, and said: "Yes, it's just that the premium is 20 billion US dollars, when will I be able to earn it back?"
She never questioned any decision Gu Chenfeng made, but she still felt a little distressed for giving someone an extra 20 billion US dollars for no reason.
Although she has never been short of money now, who would think that she has too much money?
Gu Chenfeng was taken aback when he heard the words, and after taking a sip of tea, he smiled and said, "Honey, since when have you been so obsessed with money? In fact, I'm grasping the general trend now, as long as I grasp it, the money will come rolling in." .”
"Okay!" Luo Qingcheng nodded with a half understanding.
Anyway, the money has already been spent, so she just complained a little bit, and didn't blame Gu Chenfeng for anything.
At this moment, Gu Chenfeng's cell phone rang, and when he picked it up, it was Yang Mi calling.
Gu Chenfeng thought for a while, then answered the channel: "Mr. Yang, is there anything you need to call me at this time?"
"I'm here to thank Teacher Gu!" Yang Mi said with a smile on the other end of the phone.
Gu Chenfeng was taken aback for a moment, then thought of something, and said with a smile: "That's right, I haven't congratulated Mr. Yang on his success yet!"
Yang Mi smiled and said, "It's all thanks to Teacher Gu's help!"
After "Hero" was released in Europe and the United States, although the promotion of this martial arts film was not very good, the word of mouth was not bad, and the box office was not bad.
The freshness of Rotten Tomatoes reached 91 points, which directly made many overseas movie fans boil.
Seeing this, Yang Mi added another 1000 million US dollars in publicity expenses, and even directly found more than 20 navy teams to carry out a network-wide publicity, and the effect was absolutely leveraged.
In the four days since its release, the box office of "Hero" has reached 5.24 million U.S. dollars, ranking first among the movies released in the same period.
With her amazing beauty and superb acting skills, Yang Mi has also become popular overseas. So far, Jiaxin Entertainment Company has two overseas hot stars, Yang Mi and Reba.
After Yang Mi became popular overseas, many big brands have found her agent, wanting Yang Mi to endorse their products, but Yang Mi only chose a few big domestic brands.
At this time, Gu Chenfeng said again: "When I came back, Disney Films predicted that the overseas box office of "Hero" should reach between US$15 billion and US$20 billion."
"If you add online copyright and peripherals, it should be no problem to break through 20 billion US dollars."
Yang Mi on the other end of the phone became even more excited after hearing Gu Chenfeng's words, and said excitedly: "So, "Hero" really succeeded?"
"It's a success now, Mr. Yang!" Gu Chenfeng said a little speechlessly.
However, he also understands that before this, all the films that were successful in overseas film circles were made by Gu Chenfeng, and basically none of the films of other people had succeeded. Wind's film Accident, the second overseas success.
The first one is of course the movie directed by Li Lan a long time ago.
Afterwards, Gu Chenfeng chatted with Yang Mi for a few more words before hanging up the phone.
As for the conversation between the two just now, Luo Qingcheng heard it very clearly. After seeing Gu Chenfeng hang up the phone, Luo Qingcheng asked: "Husband, you said that the "Changjin Lake" you are going to shoot next can be done?" Will it make $20 billion at the global box office?"
Previously, Gu Chenfeng's films, as long as they were released around the world, basically had a box office of more than 20 billion, or even 30 billion US dollars, but those films were all sci-fi or animation films.
But this time Gu Chenfeng filmed a movie about the Anti-Japanese War, Luo Qingcheng was really worried.
Gu Chenfeng heard the words and said confidently: "Don't worry, my wife, any movie will not be too bad. Although I debuted relatively late in the director industry, I believe that my first movie It can reach the achievement of tens of billions of directors."
In the actor industry before, Gu Chenfeng's box office has accumulated to tens of billions, and he has also won the domestic grand slam best actor, but the only pity is that he did not win the Oscar best actor.
In fact, the two films "Iron Man" and "Inception" have great opportunities, and when they were on earth, the starring roles of these two films were successful.
But in this world, perhaps because Gu Chenfeng is a native of China, the Oscars did not nominate him for Best Actor.
Looking at the confident Gu Chenfeng, Luo Qingcheng showed a charming smile, leaned into his arms, and said, "My husband, I believe in you."
Soon the car stopped firmly at the villa.
Gu Chenfeng carried his suitcase and handbag, took Luo Qingcheng's hand and went back to the room.
Back in the room, Gu Chenfeng took out an exquisite jewelry box from his handbag and said, "Honey, I have a gift for you."
Luo Qingcheng sat up straight with surprise on his face when he heard the words, and asked very curiously: "What?"
Gu Chenfeng handed the jewelry box to Luo Qingcheng and said, "Open it and have a look!"
Luo Qingcheng took the jewelry box and opened it. Suddenly, a ray of sea blue light flashed in front of her eyes, and an extremely exquisite necklace lay quietly in the jewelry box.
"Wow, so beautiful!" Luo Qingcheng exclaimed involuntarily.
Gu Chenfeng said with a smile: "Its name is "Heart of the Ocean"."
Luo Qingcheng carefully picked up the necklace and looked it over carefully, her joy was beyond words.
Staring at the necklace intently, he asked, "Honey, how much does such a beautiful necklace cost?"
Luo Qingcheng is also the eldest daughter of a wealthy family, and her parents are also jade merchants worth billions. She has a very high appreciation ability for these jewelry.
So she saw the extraordinaryness of this necklace at a glance.
Gu Chenfeng said: "As long as you like it, it's fine, why do you care how much it costs?"
"Huh?" Luo Qingcheng raised her head when she heard the words, and said, "You don't even want to tell me the price, it seems that this necklace is not cheap, but the more you don't tell me, the more curious I become, just tell me, How much is it?"
Seeing Luo Qingcheng's coquettish appearance, Gu Chenfeng couldn't hold on any longer, and said, "Actually, it's not much money, just over 7000 million US dollars."
"What? More than 7000 million... US dollars... just to pay back?" Luo Qingcheng was trembling physically and mentally, and his words were a little stuttering, and said: "You...you are...too willing!"
Gu Chenfeng said with a smile: "Flawless sea-blue diamonds over 460 carats are rare in the world. Since I have seen them all, it would be a pity if I didn't buy them back and give them to you!"
"Come on, let me put it on for you!"
While speaking, Gu Chenfeng pulled Luo Qingcheng to the front of the mirror, and then put "Heart of the Ocean" on Luo Qingcheng's white jade neck.
He sincerely praised: "Such a beautiful necklace is the best match only if it is worn on my wife's neck."
Luo Qingcheng also stared at the mirror for a long time, the more he looked more satisfied, then he turned around and put his arms around Gu Chenfeng's neck, and said, "My husband, thank you."
"I love you!"
Gu Chenfeng hugged Luo Qingcheng, leaned close to her ear and said, "Love, you can't just say it with your mouth."
"Ah~~" Luo Qingcheng felt as if she had been fooled, and her cheeks became hot instantly.
It's broad daylight...
An hour and a half later, Gu Chenfeng and the radiant Luo Qingcheng went downstairs to have dinner together.
Fortunately, in the middle of the journey, He Xiujuan carried Xiao Tianqi for a walk in the backyard and didn't bother her, otherwise it would be embarrassing.
After the family finished their meal happily, Gu Chenfeng held Xiao Tianqi and played at home for a while.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Gu Chenfeng arrived at the company and called all the main creators of the "Changjin Lake" crew together.
Gu Chenfeng sat on the first seat, looked at the people below and said, "Everyone, I'm very sorry. Due to my personal reasons, I had to deal with some matters in the Lighthouse Country, which delayed the preparations for the crew of "Changjin Lake" .”
"Fortunately, everyone is very supportive and has done a very good job in all aspects, especially Mr. Tan from Bayi Studio. In the past period of time, he has paid a lot for the crew."
That's right, Mr. Tan is the supervisor from the military camp. After all, this movie has a lot to do with it, and the higher-ups must send someone over to watch it.
Of course, he is also a producer. After all, the higher-ups also invested 15.00% of the shares in "Changjin Lake", but the biggest producer is still Zhang Qingqing, because Qingchen Entertainment accounted for most of the investment.
As for Wang Yao's [-]% investment, she didn't send anyone over, which shows her trust in Gu Chenfeng.
"Of course, Director Zhuo, Director Chen, and Director Xu also worked very hard."
Gu Chenfeng continued: "In this film, besides me, there are three other directors. Everyone knows these three directors. I hope that in the next filming, everyone can work together."
