Island Tycoon

Chapter 564 A Gold Mountain Made of Dollars

As soon as Paris was mentioned, the noisy atmosphere immediately quieted down.Ye Jingcheng, the big boss, is famous for his boldness, which is no less than that of Tai Centimeter Pork.

What's more, since he came to the scene himself, one can imagine the amount of this Italian letter.

The last time Ye Jingcheng attended the celebration banquet was "Prison Storm" which was released half a year ago.At that time, the two leading actors, Zhou Runfa and Liang Jiahui, received a full seven-figure lai see.

In contrast, this time "The Lame" broke through 500 million at the box office, and only Lu Liangwei was the leading actor. I don't know how much Ye Jingcheng will post?
After the crew of "The Lame Man" took the stage, the relevant personnel actively stood on both sides of Ye Jingcheng, the production team headed by producer Zheng Shishi stood on the left, and the actors headed by Lu Liangwei stood on the right.

At this time, Lu Liangwei already had an unstoppable smile on his face. After working so hard for so long and making such a big sacrifice, he gained weight and lost weight like a balloon during the filming. This award.

In his thinking, among the prizes that Ye Jingcheng sealed, he should be the one who got the biggest share.Of course, as the No.1 behind-the-scenes, Zheng Shishi may also be the one he gets the most share of.

In fact, what he cares most about is the numbers in the red envelope.Thinking of this, Lu Liangwei couldn't help rubbing his palms.

"Now I'll give you a multiple-choice question." Ye Jingcheng took out the prepared checkbook from his pocket and asked Lu Liangwei, "Do you want a check or cash?"

Seeing that Lu Liangwei didn't seem to have reacted, but stood there in a daze, Ye Jingcheng wrote the check and handed it over, and said with a smile, "You decide for yourself."

At the right time, Zeng Zhiwei, who was in charge of the host, said in a lively atmosphere: "You said that the check should be cash?"

"I would say it's more convenient to check, and you don't have to carry so much money to the bank."

"If I would definitely choose cash, I can take home the money to cover a bed, and then sleep comfortably on it, I don't know how much fun and enjoyment."

"You are so stupid. Do you think the amount will be less if the big boss makes a move? Could it be that one million or hundreds of thousands are kept at home? What if a thief enters the house?"

"That's right, according to me, it's better to deposit the check in the bank for insurance."

……

Immediately there was a commotion in the audience, and there were many discussions on this topic.At the same time, they also understand why the 'Golden Mountain' launched tonight is not as large as the 'Golden Mountain' at the celebration banquet in the past.

It turned out that when Ye Jingcheng played the check, the visual shock brought by the cash was shocking.However, for the recipients, there is still a lot of trouble.

The first is the weight. Taking one hundred Hong Kong dollars as the face value, one million yuan weighs at least 100 to [-] catties. Should they hold it or carry it?

The second is the issue of safety. Of course it is safe in this venue, but on the way to the bank, who knows if there will be any unexpected blessings or misfortunes.

What's more, knowing people's faces but not their hearts, maybe someone at the venue coveted the money, leading him to the path of crime.

At this time, Lu Liangwei also reacted from his daze, and accepted the check with a silly smile.But when he read the string of numbers and confirmed how many zeros there were behind, his expression froze again.

Why only 20?

Lu Liangwei's mood seemed to fall into the abyss in an instant, and he looked at the string of one 2 plus five 0s in disbelief.Could it be that the big boss feels that he is not working hard enough?So this time it was just a formality to give him an award.

It is true that the response of "The Lame Man" during its release was far less than that of the previous "True Tomorrow", or even the later "Prison Storm", but the new record it set was real.

As the saying goes, there is hard work without credit, Ye Jingcheng has no reason to only give 20, this amount is not as good as Jiahe and Princess Jin, or...

Lu Liang came up with all kinds of ideas, but when he saw Ye Jingcheng standing in front of him, he had to bury his inner thoughts deeply, and he didn't even have the courage to ask.

The reason is very simple, he doesn't want to be the next Zhou Renfa.Even just one sentence from Ye Jingcheng can transform him from 'immortal' to 'disaster'.

In addition, the 'Pay' Lishi explained that whether the amount of money is more or less depends on Ye Jingcheng's personal opinion, not that it is owed to them or should be given out.

To be precise, if it wasn't for Ye Jingcheng's start, like Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest in the past, they would really just send out a "meaningful" lai see, instead of paying dividends to actors who are now tens of thousands.

"Brother Viagra, you have watched it for a long time." Zeng Zhiwei in front of the stage took a step back and joked to Lu Liangwei: "How is it? Isn't it a shocking amount?"

"Shocking is for sure." Lu Liangwei glanced at Ye Jingcheng for a while, he definitely couldn't tear down the big boss.He could only respond with a forced smile while putting the check in his pocket.

It's just that he didn't have time to finish this action, but Zeng Zhiwei grabbed his wrist and stopped him: "Don't pretend to be so hasty? Share the happiness with everyone."

"Yes, can you tell me how many there are?" someone from the audience asked.

Then, someone followed suit: "Don't worry, we're not trying to take advantage of you."

There was really no way, Lu Liangwei could only stretch out two fingers, shook them and said, "That's all, you can guess for yourself."

"20? More than that?" Someone immediately gave a guess.

The person standing next to him grabbed his head and looked at it, jokingly said, "How does your head look like, 20 yuan can be said?"

"That is to say, I think 200 million is about the same." Another person echoed.

"Damn! His salary seems to be only 20, and a lai see is only 200 million, how is that possible!"

"Fuss."

……

"Okay, you don't have to be so excited." Ye Jingcheng motioned to the first person who stood up to speak, and said, "He guessed right, Awei's gift is indeed 20."

Ah!
Really 20! ?
how is this possible! ! !

Not to mention Lu Liangwei, everyone in the audience felt that they had heard it wrong, or that Ye Jingcheng said it wrong all of a sudden?Including Zeng Zhiwei, who was in charge of hosting, saw that the atmosphere had become a bit strange, and they didn't know how to save the scene.

You must know that Zhou Xingchi starred in "Looking for a Husband and Jackie Chan", at the celebration banquet that won 2000 million box office, Ye Jingcheng gave Zhou Xingchi a bonus of 30 yuan, mainly because the latter was a newcomer.

As for "The True Colors of Heroes", as the first movie to break through 3000 million box office, Zhou Runfa's dividends for the actors alone have exceeded one million, and Ti Lung and Zhang Guorong each shared 50.

Now that "The Lame" has broken through 500 million at the box office, Ye Jingcheng only pays Lu Liangwei 20 in dividends?This result is beyond everyone's expectations.

Not to mention 20, even if Ye Jingcheng really gave Lu Liangwei 100 million, no one would think it was a big amount, because the 100 million now is not as good as the 100 million that Leap made last week.

When Zhou Runfa received the 100 million dividend, the exchange rate of the Hong Kong dollar to the U.S. dollar was still around 1:5, but now the Hong Kong dollar to the U.S. dollar has fallen below 1:8, and the gap between the two can be seen at a glance.

Is it because Ye Jingcheng doesn't value Lu Liangwei, that's why he doesn't get special treatment, or...

Big Boss, is he also on a tight budget recently?As a last resort, I can only take a form...

Like Lu Liangwei just now, everyone had various thoughts in their minds.Some reporters who were invited to the scene were even more keenly aware of the elements of the news, secretly thinking that if such a situation really happened, it would definitely be used to make a big news.

Originally, the purpose of these reporters coming to the banquet tonight was not to eat and drink.Instead, they want to take the opportunity to dig out the small and medium-sized theaters under the Shaw Brothers name some time ago, and announce the issue of being fully taken over by the Nanguo Cinemas.

It's best to find out the deal between Ye Jingcheng and Shao Yifu. What are the bargaining chips in the deal?When was the agreement reached?

After all, Shaw has been in business for so many years, and it is absolutely impossible to just stop production. Even if Shao Yifu does not miss the old days, as a businessman, he should shop around. There must be some reason that prompted him to make a decision.

Unexpectedly, Ye Jingcheng threw another torpedo before they could intercept the depth bomb.

Now the reporters present are waiting for an explanation from Ye Jingcheng.If Ye Jingcheng chooses to let it go or remain silent, they can assume that Ye Jingcheng is acquiescing to this matter, and they can make some marginal news based on it.

"Uncover it." Ye Jingcheng glanced around the venue, and finally ordered the security guard standing in the 'Golden Mountain'.

At this time, the 'Jinshan' has not revealed its true face, but is covered with a piece of red cloth.The security guard nodded knowingly, and pulled the red cloth off by a corner.

Whoa! ! !
Under the strong light, everyone's faces reflected a piece of green.The 'golden mountain' under the red cloth is not the Hong Kong dollar they are familiar with, but a pile of green dollar bills.

Many people present claimed to have seen the big scene, especially the employees of some companies.

After all, Ye Jingcheng had already handed out 500 to 12 Hong Kong dollars in cash before this, and the 'golden mountain' that was carved out of it fully occupied a round table for [-] people.

In contrast, the dining car in front of me is much smaller.But the visual impact it brings still gives them an unprecedented intensity, and all the money on it is US dollars!

How much is the difference between 20 Hong Kong dollars and 20 US dollars?At least a multiple of eight.No one would have thought that Ye Jingcheng would still play with currency units.

To be more precise, maybe they will accuse Lu Liangwei and ask him if he has read the letters on the check clearly. Are you sure the currency unit is HKD instead of USD?

Not to mention the people with complicated thoughts, but Lu Liangwei himself couldn't help putting his hands in his pockets, he really wanted to take out the check and read it again.

"That...Ye Sheng," Lu Liangwei swallowed, and asked, "Can I choose again, I think cash is more suitable for me."

"Whatever you want." Ye Jingcheng tilted his head, motioning for him to go up and get it himself.

Lu Liangwei returned the check to Ye Jingcheng, then walked up panting, touching a handful of US dollars with an incredulous expression.The pile of gold in front of me is at least 100 million, which is almost tens of millions in Hong Kong dollars.

one two three four……

Lu Liangwei counted out twenty dollars from it. At this moment, not only his heart was pounding, but even his hands were trembling when he took the money.

The reason why he was so excited was not because he had never seen Qian, but because he was shocked by Ye Jingcheng's surprise.

The market conditions on the entire Hong Kong Island are now known to be sluggish. Some time ago, it was reported that the Hong Kong dollar would drop sharply, and it may even fall to the 1:20 exchange rate between the US dollar and the Hong Kong dollar.

It directly led to a chaotic situation. In order to preserve the value of their property, everyone chose to give up Hong Kong dollars and exchange them for currencies of other countries.

But there are only a few channels in total. The main way for ordinary people to exchange foreign currency is through the bank, but the bank's daily exchange mechanism has a certain limit.

Some related people can only go to the underground bank, but the underground bank is not a random exchange, there are rules for each line, and the most important thing is to pay an extra high handling fee.

This has led to many people knowing that the Hong Kong dollar will depreciate, but there is no way to stop it. They can only stare and let it depreciate.

Nine out of ten people present were also included.Ye Jingcheng took out such a large sum of dollars in one go, it was definitely more timely than timely rain, at least it could help them recover part of the currency loss.

Seeing the scene where everyone was shocked, Ye Jingcheng believed that the goal had been achieved.He didn't want to show off that he was rich, or that he was capable.

Instead, I want to tell some people in the industry through this incident that he will never treat people who work under him badly, and it is a very sensible thing to choose to work for him.

Especially in response to the suspension of production of Shaw Brothers Films, many people in the industry began to find another way out.Ye Jingcheng's purpose is to let these people take the initiative to rank him as the best proprietor.

The background has always been the weak point of Qingdeng Entertainment. Now that it has acquired more than a dozen Shaw theaters, it has already made up for it in terms of resources. The only thing it lacks is talents.

It was impossible for Ye Jingcheng to invite everyone one by one, not to mention asking him to meet the low with the high, even if the energy and time did not allow it.By the time he went to attract a few people by himself, the others would have been divided up by Jiahe and Princess Jin.

If you want to keep these people, you can only use a strange trick, and the best way is to drive your heart.Ye Jingcheng chose his biggest advantage, which was a lot of money.

Sometimes talking about money is clichéd, but clichéd things are often the most practical.

The so-called way out for most people is nothing more than wanting to make more money.And if you don't talk about money, do you still talk about your heart?Forget about men and women, is it necessary for everyone to be men?

After Lu Liangwei, it was Zheng Shishi's turn, who also shared 20 yuan.Compared with the former, Zheng Shishi is much calmer, but the smile on his face is almost frozen.

It's the turn of the director, screenwriter, actor...even chores.

Compared with Lu Liangwei and Zheng Shishi, the number of red envelopes they sent is much less.The director's profit is directly reduced to 5 yuan, the screenwriter's [-] yuan, the second and third actors with more important roles in the scene are [-] yuan, and the rest are only a few hundred to a few thousand.

But compared to their efforts, it is definitely a big gain.Some people who are more face-saving and bragging have begun to think about how to show off in front of their friends.

Or send a note to their friends to see if they can help pass the company's application.
