The god of the world

Chapter 244 Boss Lin's money is not so easy to earn

In addition to the football circle, there have been many big moves in the film and television circle this year.

After a long period of post-production, the super blockbuster "Inception", which was released simultaneously at home and abroad in the summer, grossed a total of 15 billion US dollars at the box office.

Nolan's original version is wonderful, but Jiang Ye's version is not bad at all.

Coupled with the advantages of Guanhai Group in domestic and overseas theaters, the advantage in film arrangement should not be too great.

Dimens Films, which is in charge of distributing "Inception", has also made a name for itself in Hollywood.

Previously, Lin Shen selected a group of unsatisfactory Chinese directors and implanted them with templates of world-class directors such as Kashen, Nolan, Spielberg, David Fincher, and Quentin.

Many movies that fit their style were harmonized by Lin Shen one after another with the privilege of film and television investment, and then handed over to them for re-shooting.

Kashen's big ship, Avatar, other directors may not be able to shoot well.

But if it was his own deity, then naturally it would not be a problem.

Even the efficiency of shooting will be higher than the original self.

Wen Zhiqian, who got the Kashen template, made the whole filming process of Dachuan as clear as it was printed in his mind, and the efficiency was naturally greatly improved.

Xu Lang, who got Quentin's template, was assigned to shoot the first two parts of "Return of the Clown".

As the most profitable horror film in history, just two films have swept the global box office of 12 billion US dollars.

The combined production cost of the two films has just reached 1.2 million US dollars.

With such a high return on investment, it is naturally unreasonable to cheap Warner Bros.

What Zhang Jinfu got was the template of David Fincher. After the "Queen's Gambit" was filmed earlier, after it was broadcast on the Lemon platform, the heroine Talia Ryder became popular all over the world.

As the director of this play, Zhang Jinfu finally became famous in Hollywood.

Streaming media giants such as Netflix and Disney even paid tens of millions of dollars to hire him to direct new dramas.

As a person personally selected by Lin Shen, he is also a diehard.

Zhang Jinfu categorically rejected the fat contract of the two families, and even quarreled with his wife for this.

In the eyes of his wife, Zhang Jinfu has no reason to refuse such a high salary offered by Netflix.

As a great director, he should have enjoyed the closeness and courtship of the film and television company.

Zhang Jinfu was too lazy to break up with his wife.

It wasn't for the children, the two had already considered divorce.

Recently, he has been busy filming "House of Cards".

Although the remuneration given by the company is not very high.

Can't stand it, there are a total of four seasons. Based on the $500 million salary per season, there is also a total of $2000 million in revenue.

Compared with the garbage script Netflix gave him, the "House of Cards" in these four seasons is the real classic.

For the male lead, he chose Xiao Lizi.

The Oscar winner who has been famous for many years, his age and image are relatively close to the role.

Although Xiao Lizi's famous work is Da Chuan, it is simply unrealistic for the current Xiao Lizi to play Da Chuan.

The audience watching the big boat is to feel the beautiful love, not to watch a middle-aged greasy man harassing him.

After the four seasons are filmed, Xiao Lizi can take away a salary of [-] million US dollars.

Among the Hollywood big coffee, this is also the peak income.

In addition, some artists cultivated by their company, such as David Miller, who has the template of Xiao Lizi, who is not bad in appearance and acting skills, will also find suitable roles to insert into the play to make them familiar.

……

The overseas version of the Lemon platform, which Lemon Films has been quietly accumulating strength for, has instantly attracted tens of millions of registered users with the help of the mini-series "The Queen's Gambit", and has received rave reviews.

It's a high-quality drama series, and it's free to watch the whole process without ads. It's hard not to like it.

Seeing the success of the free strategy and attracting so many people, the business department of the overseas edition of Lemon Films and Television Group heaved a long sigh of relief.

In China, Lemon Films beat Aiyouteng.

Acton had to merge in order to compete with them.

But abroad, they are just a challenger.

Netflix, the leader of traditional streaming media, has 2.2 million paying users worldwide, and invests more than [-] billion U.S. dollars in film and television dramas every year.

Fortunately, there is Guanhai Group behind Lemon Movies and TV. The overseas version is the same as the domestic one. Many netizens who like football can also watch the broadcast of domestic matches through the platform for free.

This is quite attractive to some fans.

Compared with the five major leagues, and even the second-tier European leagues, you have to pay to watch them.

For free games, even if the players play poorly, there is still a market.

What's more, the Chinese Super League has more advantages than other Asian leagues in promoting in Europe, America and other regions.

Other leagues are still restricting the number of foreign players.

At the beginning of this season, the wayward Lin Shen even directly announced that there would be no limit on the number of foreign aid players.

In theory, a team can have 11 starting lineups with all foreign players.

This courage shocked all Asian countries.

Even in the five major leagues, in order to protect the growth of local players, they try their best to limit the number of foreign players.

However, Lin Shen waved his hand and directly canceled the restriction on foreign aid.

Many foreign players with high cost performance in second- and third-tier leagues in Europe and the United States are attracted by high salaries by many teams in the Chinese Super League and the Chinese Championship. Many of them are international players with some reputation in their own countries.

Even if they love Wujiu, many fans in Europe and the United States will consider paying attention to the Chinese Super League, which they were not very familiar with before.

Lemon Video is even more thoughtful, allowing audiences from all over the world to see the promotional content of the Chinese Super League in their native language.

In addition to international social media accounts such as Youtube and Instagram, the Chinese Super League has also created an English version of the official website of the league.

Contains detailed guides for Chinese Super League science popularization, viewing, ticket purchase, and on-site cheering, which provides convenience for overseas people who cannot speak Chinese.

Even at the end of each round, the five most exciting goals of this round will be edited and uploaded to social platform accounts in time.

Those who hate Lin deeply are naturally none other than those former Chinese Super League players.

With the influx of more and more foreign players, it is difficult for them to gain a firm foothold even in the Chinese Championship, and many of them have even been reduced to playing for the Chinese A and Chinese B teams.

The lower the league level, the less salary you will naturally get.

Thinking of the 300 million annual salary I got before, it is only 30 now.

The gap between them is more exciting than riding a roller coaster.

Opening up foreign aid has not hindered the blowout of domestic football talents.

The strength of many domestic players who have emerged in low-level leagues makes them all feel ashamed.

In the past, the main players of many Chinese Super League clubs had a real ability value between 50-60.

Only foreign aid has an ability value of 70+.

And the system rewards Lin Shen to the worst League Two player, and his ability value is not less than 50.

The gap between them is astonishingly large.

The vast majority of local players who play in the Chinese Super League are not even the main players in the fourth-level British competition.

These players whose real ability is less than 50, earning an annual salary of 30, can be regarded as their good luck in reincarnation.

In Europe or South America, with their strength, they have no chance to become professional players.

The worst player templates in Lin Shen's hands are all better than them, and he is not afraid of them joining forces to cause trouble.

According to the salary regulations of the latest season, the salary of Chinese Super League players has increased a lot compared with last season.

The annual salary of the substitutes in the second team is 30 yuan, and the annual salary of the main players can reach up to 50 yuan.

The annual salary of the substitutes in the Chinese Premier League is not less than 50 yuan, and the annual salary of the main players can reach up to 100 million yuan.

The annual salary of the substitutes in the championship is not less than 100 million, and the annual salary of the main players can reach up to 200 million.

The annual salary of the substitutes in the Chinese Super League is not less than 200 million, and the annual salary of the main players can reach up to 500 million.

The four levels are distinct.

If you want to earn more, keep climbing.

Compared with the high salary and low ability of many players before, the capped annual salary of 500 million domestic players is not too reasonable.

If the player's strength is really outstanding, the club can apply for a special case of high salary for him, and get the same annual salary as foreign aid.

For many children from ordinary families, not to mention the annual salary of 500 million, even the 30 annual salary of the lowest-level second-tier substitute is enough for them to have fun for a while.

Moreover, these are only base annual salaries.

Similar winning bonuses and upgrade bonuses are not included.

……

Sun Tong and Xue Qiang, the former main force of Guangzhou City, were ordered by Lin Shen to terminate their contract because they led the players to protest the salary cut.

In the end, only one championship relegation team took them in.

But with more and more foreign aid and cost-effective players in the Chinese Championship, the two of them can only go to the Chinese League in despair to find a team to play for.

Even the Chinese League One team looks down on them.

The two searched around, and the last polo team that was promoted from the Second Division took them in. The contract given was the main salary, with an annual salary of 40.

But it is only signed once a year, which is obviously doubtful about their strength.

No matter how aggrieved the two were, they had to sign.

At least 40 annual salary, which is not low in China.

But for them who used to have an annual salary of 200 million, it was somewhat unsatisfactory.

Previously, several old teammates who did not protest with them had a second career.

Although he failed to keep his job in the Chinese Super League, he has gained a firm foothold in some mid- and lower-level teams in the championship, with an annual salary of more than 100 million.

This made Sun Tong, who was confident in his strength at the beginning, wish he could find a crack in the ground to get in.

He didn't have the face to attend the dinner organized by his old teammates.

The team he played for was in the second tier, and he didn't know if he would be able to keep his job in the fourth tier.

Facts have proved that without them, Guangzhou City not only did not pull their hips, but instead won the first championship in team history.

There is almost no suspense about the Super League champion this season.

Since the start of the game, Guangzhou City has not lost.

The [-]-seat home Puma Tournament Center is also full, and the market is surprisingly good.

Just last season's broadcast fees and league commercial sponsorship dividends alone, Guangzhou City's net income reached 2 million US dollars.

Game day income also recorded 3000 million US dollars.

Including stadium naming income, billboards in the stadium, etc., the single-season revenue is about 2.5 million US dollars, ranking first in the Chinese Super League!

As for the salary expenses of players, coaching team and club staff, stadium maintenance and security expenses, the single-season expenses are only 5000 million U.S. dollars.

It is equivalent to the net income of Guangzhou City last season as high as 2 million US dollars.

That's it, the seller's income is still not included.

Even Pharaoh, who has been losing money playing football, has tasted the sweetness from the Dalian native.

Last season, the Dalian native ranked second in the Chinese Super League. The most eye-catching performance was the Nice substitute template lineup bought from Guangzhou City.

On the surface, it is domestic aid, but in fact, all of them are not inferior to foreign aid.

Other teams bought foreign aid, and since they haven't settled their debts, they can at most reinforce a few positions.

Unlike them, they used 4 million adjustment fees to buy the substitute lineup in Guangzhou City, and they won the runner-up. They earned 1.12 million US dollars just for the broadcast fee and the alliance's commercial revenue share.

Many European teams are interested in kicking out players who are worthy, and selling them is another income.

As soon as Lao Wang was happy, he directly settled the 7 million debts he had dragged before.

Take back the controlling stake of Dalian people, intending to manage it well as a high-quality asset under Wanda Group.

For this reason, Lao Wang deliberately arranged his inconspicuous son to serve as the chairman of the Dalian People's Club. He also wanted to use Xiao Wang's influence on social platforms to increase the popularity of Dalian people.

The third place in the Chinese Super League last season was Shandong Taishan, a veteran Chinese Super League powerhouse. Relying on years of persistent youth training and cost-effective signing strategies, it has always been the favorite to win the Chinese Super League. The broadcast fees and commercial income dividends it received were 8300 million US dollars.

The fourth place on the standings is the Three Towns of Wuhan, which have risen in recent years. They have the background of state-owned enterprises. In terms of capital investment, they are no worse than Lao Wang and other rich people. The broadcast fees and commercial income dividends received are 7000 million US dollars.

In addition to these four teams, the broadcast fees and commercial income of other teams are also more than 5000 million US dollars.

This caused the championship team to desperately want to climb to the Super League.

The next broadcast contract will be at least doubled, and the dividends received by the Chinese Super League teams will only be more than they are now.

Like Sichuan Jiuniu, this season, they used the relationship of the City Football Group to rent several teenagers from Manchester City, and are currently competing for promotion places in the Super League.

A bit beyond City Football Group's expectations, the Champions League is not as weak as they thought.

Lin Shen almost arranged for the local players in the championship to be the main force of each club in the League One, and their ability values ​​were between 66-71.

Most of the local players in the Chinese Premier League are between 60 and 65.

Of course, the young geniuses of Manchester City are indeed amazingly talented.

But in terms of real strength, these opponents in the same league are not weak at all. They are very close to their current strength, and it is difficult for them to perform particularly well.

At first, they were quite reluctant to come here.

In their inherent impression, Asian football is backward, far inferior to Europe.

As for the Super League, no player is willing to go.

Not to mention, the league below the Chinese Super League.

If it weren't for the contract, they would definitely find a way to refuse.

After the results came, the strength of the young players here was no worse than the best of their peers.

Occasionally, some geniuses who have already gained fame in the championship, their talents are even higher than them.

As the talents recruited by the world's top football clubs, it is really difficult for them to accept.

As the winter window approaches, Sichuan Jiuniu is only in the middle of the standings.

The upgrade can't be said to be useless, but it's not very big.

But the City Football Group has money, and since these Manchester City teenagers are not strong enough, they can buy them directly with money.

Coincidentally, the Beijing Cathay Pacific, which played brilliantly in the first half of the season, was completely defenseless against other clubs, allowing them to choose the players on the shelf.

Earlier in the FA Cup, Mickey, who performed a hat-trick against Guoan, has been taken away by Beijing Guoan for 2000 million euros.

City Football Group CEO Soriano took the initiative to find him. He is one of the few insiders who knows that Beijing Cathay Pacific is also a club under Lin Shen's name.

There are many consortiums standing behind him, and Soriano has a big appetite. According to the analysis of their scouting department, even if they buy this team in a package, they will not lose money.

Knowing that Mickey was bought by Beijing Guoan, Soriano regretted that he was too hesitant and missed a talented striker who might be very rich in the future.

For the entire Beijing Cathay Pacific first team, including the substitutes, Soriano offered 1 million euros, which is a big deal for Sichuan Jiuniu.

After this investment, Sichuan Jiuniu will also be renamed Sichuan Jiucheng, corresponding to clubs in other leagues of City Football Group.

If it was someone else, Lin Shen might not be so straightforward.

But the consortium behind Soriano is worthy of Lin Shen's goodwill.

In this way, in this season, the capital Cathay Pacific, known as the Big Devil, completely disintegrated.

All the main players and substitutes were sold, which caused an uproar among many fans.

As the chairman of the club, Xu Lei was also scolded by fans on the hot search.

It's fine to make money desperately, but I'm not willing to sign up for the team.

Xu Lei wanted to cry but had no tears, what kind of big boss is he.

No wonder Lin Shenbai gave him the shares at the beginning, and the co-author was sure that the position would be scolded by the fans.

As a result, he has to wear sunglasses and a mask to cover himself when he goes out now.

Otherwise, if the fans recognize him, he will be beaten up.
