Chapter 279 Taxes

A movie with a box office of over [-] billion, these words came out of Huo Yunting’s mouth, and within two hours it was on the hot search again.

Regardless of whether they were in the industry or outside the industry, or whether they were netizens in the media, they all felt a little incredible about his extraordinary self-confidence.

"Lost in Thailand" is also the debut film of a new director. Although there are two movie stars participating in it, neither of them are on camera. How can he be so sure that this film is destined to break 10 billion in box office?

Is this also going the "Crazy Stone" route?
Although the movie "Lost in Thailand" has not been released yet, many netizens have already begun to criticize it.

Huo Yunting ignored these comments.

After all, he doesn’t even have a Weibo.

However, due to the success of "Charlotte Troubles", the news media could not say too much. They only expressed some slight opinions on Huo Yunting's confidence.

Just like this, we waited until New Year's Eve, February [-]th, when "Lost in Thailand" was officially released.

Countless media reporters were stationed at the entrances of various movie theaters, waiting to get first-hand news interviews.

Huo Yunting was not having a great time during the Spring Festival. Within two minutes of watching the Spring Festival Gala, parents from both sides were urging her to have a child as soon as possible.

What you said to me made Huo Yunting's head spin.

The same goes for Liu Yifei next to her.

Now he could guess why Liu Yifei looked gloomy when she returned to the martial arts gym last time.

Damn it, no wonder I couldn't feed this girl eight times a day after I came back, and she also watched me quit smoking and drinking every day. The root of the trouble for a long time was here.

Seeing Liu Xiaoli talking more and more energetically, Huo Yunting quickly raised his hands and swore that he would have the child as soon as possible.

"Mom, don't worry, Sissi and I will definitely keep up our efforts, never give up, and strive to get the baby out!"

Liu Xiaoli nodded with a smile, "How many do you want?"

Huo Yunting's heart skipped a beat and he gritted his teeth, "Three!"

Liu Yifei's legs felt weak after saying this. She has three children?Do you think I'm a puppy?

He choked up and pinched Huo Yunting's thighs hard under the table.

"Hey, three is a bit too much, two is enough, one boy and one girl is best." Liu Xiaoli said cheerfully, "You two, keep up the good work."

"sure."

Huo Yunting calmly poked Liu Yifei's waist with his chopsticks. His body softened, and he retracted his hand pinching the inner thigh.

Finally shutting their mouths, Huo Yunting quickly changed the topic to the Spring Festival Gala.

"Oh, this is Wang Lihong who sings. His performance in "Lust, Caution" was banned for a while, but now he is released."

"Oh, I have an impression of this young man. He seems to have been hanging out in the United States before returning to China. Sissi, do you know this person?"

"I don't know him, but I feel like this person is a bit fake..."

The topic moved away from having children, and Huo Yunting breathed a sigh of relief, finally able to have a peaceful meal.

He spent this New Year's Eve on tenterhooks, no less than when he was drifting to the north in the early years, when he was worried that he would suddenly fall ill during the Chinese New Year.

As soon as it was around eleven o'clock, the two elders excused themselves as it was too late and there was still time at home to leave.

But the meaningful look in their eyes before leaving made the two of them stop thinking about going out to see each other off.

I just want them to make little people quickly.

"Dad, Mom, walk slowly."

"You guys also go to bed earlier."

"it is good."

Watching the headlights of the two cars gradually go away and then turn into a small dot and disappear, Huo Yunting and Liu Yifei looked at each other.

"...going to watch a movie?" Huo Yunting asked tentatively.

During these days, Sissi has been a little too proactive, and her 30 years of skills are now running low.

If you look down while peeing, you'll see the damn reflection. It's going to take a while to get rid of the swelling.

"Look!" Liu Yifei nodded heavily.

Although after talking to my mother-in-law last time, she was quite positive about making little people.

But no matter how positive I am, I can't bear the wear and tear.

She is also a human being and needs to take a break.

All swollen!
"Come on, Brother Yun, let's go watch a movie."

After the film "Lost in Thailand" was edited, it was sent to Huo Yunting. He and Liu Yifei were also among the first batch of viewers.

I went to the cinema to watch it again today, mainly to test how well the audience would accept this film.

The two of them left the house and ran all the way to the cinema. Smelling the familiar smell of sulfur and the crackling sound of firecrackers outside, they felt like they were back when they went to see "Let the Bullets Fly" that year.

It was also New Year's Eve and it was snowing heavily.
But this year, compared to previous years, the snow is sparser.

"Brother Yun, why do I feel that the snow this year is lighter than in previous years?"

"Isn't it nice to be young? It's so tiring to face the heavy snow like in previous years."

"It's not like you can't drive."

"I can't, you can."

"Lie, point your finger at me for everything."

You said something to me, walked around a few children wearing flowers, and went to the cinema with their faces covered.

Even though it was almost early in the morning, it was still full and no one was absent.

Half of the people who came to see "Lost in Thailand" came for the actors, and the other half wanted to see what Huo Yunting could confidently say about a movie with a box office of one billion.

The two found their seats and sat down. Then the lights went out and the Xiting's logo flashed on the screen, and the film officially started.

Huo Yunting has a good feeling about this film. The content of the film does have the flavor of people on the road, and the audience is quite happy with it.

For more than an hour, the audience burst into massive laughter at least ten times.

Huo Yunting had a slight judgment in his mind, and the public still preferred this method.

The next day, the first-day box office of "Lost in Thailand" was released, which was 300 million.

On par with "Charlotte Trouble".

And it was the first-day box office champion of the same period.

This box office figure shocked most of the media. No one expected that Xu Zheng's film had a higher box office than "Charlotte".

Failing to secure Huo Yunting's one-billion-dollar box office is really not a wild shot.

Reporters from all the major news media were very excited. If only "Charlotte" was a hit, Xiting would only be slightly famous.

But if "Lost in Thailand" also becomes a hit, then Xiting can be regarded as a god.

Soon, the box office for the first week was also released, which was 3 billion.

This has completely destroyed "The Grandmaster", and the total global box office of "The Grandmaster" is only about [-]-[-] million.

Although Wang Jiawei means that there will be 3D re-releases in the future, but that will be a year or four years from now.

Huo Yunting kept his mental arithmetic in mind, and the liar "Lost in Thailand" would definitely not lose money.

At the same time, he was also grateful that he had the foresight to change the name of "Lost in Thailand" to "Lost in Thailand" in advance. Otherwise, judging from the current popularity of the film, Huaqi would definitely sue them. nail.

Looking at the box office data, Huo Yunting couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.

He doesn't know if the film's box office can exceed [-] billion, but it should be possible to exceed [-] million.

"Oh, Sissy, I suddenly remembered that we seem to have a bet." The expression on Liu Yifei's face was not very bright, and her eyes were a little erratic, "Ah? What bet, Brother Yun, pornography, gambling and drugs Don’t touch it.”

"Hey, you went a little too far. You turned your back on me and refused to recognize anyone." Huo Yunting's eyes became dangerous, "Is it something you need to clean up?"

"Then you come and take care of me." Liu Yifei's body softened and she collapsed on Huo Yunting.

She was very tired, and she could also see that Huo Yunting was very tired.

She didn't believe it. She had been working hard for several months, but Brother Yun still had the energy to deal with her?

Huo Yunting was silent for a long time, and finally sighed, "I will deal with you after the box office is officially released."

It's not that he can't do it anymore, it's just that he needs to take a break.

If you grind it again, it will fucking shine.

In Brother Hua's words, what is it called?
Glowing Benzhou!
Eventually the two reached a tentative reconciliation.

Huo Yunting rarely slept peacefully for a few days. Zhang Debang called over. Coca-Cola was going to shoot a new advertisement for [-] years. As the spokesperson of the Chinese region, he would definitely appear.

The place is not far away, just in Peiping.

One is at the foot of the Imperial City, how far can one go?

Zhang Debang informed quickly, and Huo Yunting went even faster, arriving at the venue at noon the next day.

The staff there were shocked when they saw Huo Yunting.

Coca-Cola also has a lot of co-stars, some are big names, some are unassuming.

But he was the first person as big as Huo Yunting to wander over alone without showing off at all.

People are giving you face like this, what else can they say?
Without saying anything, the producer hurriedly ordered someone to get Huo Yunting a bottle of iced Coke.

"Teacher Huo, do you drink Coke?"

"Oh, thank you." Huo Yunqing looked around and found that a familiar face was missing, "Little girl, let me ask, where is the Li Hua who has been meeting me before? It's the one with the middle part."

"Ah? Teacher Huo, don't you know?"

"What do I know?"

The little girl glanced left and right, and then whispered in Huo Yunting's ear, "Your movie, "Charlotte", has a box office of almost 20 billion. It is very popular."

Huo Yunting was a little confused, "So?"

"You used Pepsi-Cola in your movie to advertise for your opponent. You don't know, but I heard from my boss that the sales of Pepsi-Cola have increased by several percentage points since the release of "Charlotte Trouble"!"

Huo Yunting nodded thoughtfully, "I asked why Baishi sent people here before..."

"Ah? Who are you sending?"

"No, it's nothing. Keep talking, what's wrong with Li Hua?"

"It was Li Hua who agreed to the Pepsi advertisement in your movie. This was considered a major dereliction of duty on his part. So we removed it."

"Tsk, tsk." Huo Yunting sighed twice and said no more.

It's not easy for him to interfere in other people's company's internal private matters.

"Okay, little girl, give me the script and take a look."

"Okay, Teacher Huo."

March is the time when the winter snow melts and welcomes spring, and it is also the day when "Lost in Thailand" is released.

The final total box office was [-] billion.

Huo Yunting was very happy, but Xu Zheng, Huang Bo, and Wang Baoqiang were all happier than Huo Yunting.

[-] billion, all three of them made a fortune.

Excluding the remuneration share of the leading actors, as well as the director's salary and share, plus taxes, Huo Yunting's net profit is about three to four billion.

He made a lot of money from these two films. When he returned to the company, Zhang Debang even opened champagne and held a celebration ceremony.

There were not many people there, except for a few shareholders in Xiting, the rest were all the stars of "Charlotte Trouble" and "Lost in Thailand".

"Brother Huo! Hahaha! Awesome!"

About ten years have passed, and Lao Zhang has a lot of white hair on his head, but his tone of voice is as exciting as that of a young man.

Holding champagne in his hand, he kept pacing in the office.

“In the past, there was Marvel, an American company, that turned around with the help of “Iron Man” and brought a company that was on the verge of bankruptcy back from the brink of bankruptcy.”

"Today! With China West Pavilion, the cost of two films of 4000 million yuan directly increased the net profit to more than 20 times!"

As soon as these two films were filmed, Xiting became a big player.

During this period of time, I don't know how many calls came into Zhang Debang's mobile phone, which made his scalp numb with pleasure.

What do you feed yourself when you work so hard every day?It's the exhilaration of having such great power.

"Old Zhang, what you did is a bit exaggerated. Actors are more capable."

"Hey, Lao Huo, you are a little too modest." Huang Bo carelessly crossed his legs on the sofa, "Did these two movies wipe out all the money of our company? If it were anyone else, who would have the same It’s so courageous to make this determination.”

Having said this, even he himself felt a little admired.

When the two of them lived together in a large courtyard, he was always being chased away by Lao Huo.

I finally managed to get ahead of him and win the Golden Horse Award.It didn't take long for them to become capitalists.

This vision is really amazing.

Once this chatterbox was opened, it was impossible to take it back. It was originally supposed to be a celebration party, but in the end it turned into a praise party for Mr. Huo.

Huo Yunting himself couldn't bear to listen to what he said in the end.

"Okay, okay, this makes my skin crawl."

After finishing the work of celebrating the victory, he said a few more serious things.

The plates in Xiting are getting bigger and bigger. After all, Zhang Debang is not enough by himself. He has to find a helper.

The second is the issue of contract renewal between Huang Bo and Wang Baoqiang.

Huang Bo and Huo Yunting have been good brothers for a long time, so naturally they still want to follow Xi Ting.

But Wang Baoqiang is ambitious.

The words were mentioned in a vague way, but Huo Yunting didn't stop him much. He smiled and agreed.

After talking about business, everyone went back to their respective homes to find their respective mothers.

Huo Yunting chatted with Xu Zheng in the company corridor and asked him if he would like to come to Xiting.

"Xu Zheng, are you interested in coming to Xiting? You made a lot of money from the liar "Lost in Thailand", right? Tens of millions, tsk tsk, I feel bad for you."

Xu Zheng laughed and said, "Yunting, tens of millions are nothing, they are just small amounts of money. Think about it, who can peel off this layer the most?"

He put a few fingers together and rubbed them together, "If something leaks out quietly, it will come back. Ha——"

Just as he laughed, he saw Huo Yunting's eyes looking a little strange, and he suppressed the rest of his laughter.

He forgot that Huo Yunting was indeed quite different from people in the entertainment industry.

"Xu Zheng."

"……Hey."

"Just pretend you didn't hear what I just said."
