At eight o'clock in the evening on December 31, 2023, Li Qingyu held up a bowl of glutinous rice balls and shouted in the living room. The lights in the house were bright and soft. Lin Juan sat on the sofa and smiled: "It's not New Year's Day yet.
"
"Isn't it coming soon!" Li Qingyu Danfeng glared at Lin Juan and said unconvinced: "Are you a gangster? Are you annoyed? Believe it or not, I will turn around and drag your son to eat ice cream and die with him."
Lin Juan: "...I'm sorry."
"snort."
"Come on, Qingyu, let's ignore him and watch a movie." Chen Lin waved to Li Qingyu and said with a kind smile on her face.
On New Year's Day, thousands of houses are lit up all over the country, and young people are watching movies, eating, singing, and dancing outside. I don't know how precious this scene of peace and prosperity for the country and the people is.
Lin Juan didn't plan to go out because of Li Qingyu's health. Instead, he spent the New Year's Day at home, watching TV and movies together, which was quite lively.
"Mom, are grandma and the others coming to our house for the Chinese New Year this year?" Lin Juan asked while peeling a macadamia nut and handed the peeled fruit to Li Qingyu.
"Yes, Qingyu's body is best not to fly."
"Well, grandma won't leave after she comes. She will stay at our house and see her great-grandson then." Lin Juan said with a smile on his face. Li Qingyu said dissatisfiedly: "How do you know it's a boy? If it's a girl
What about?"
"Anything is fine, it's best to have twins." Lin Juan smiled even more stupidly. Li Qingyu couldn't help but roll his eyes at him and muttered: "It's so easy for you to be a twin..."
In fact, when the fetus is about three months old, you can use B-ultrasound to determine whether it is a boy or a girl. However, the country does not allow this kind of examination because it will be harmful to the fetus. Of course, Lin Jian will not insist on it, so he will just let it grow.
Now Lin Juan saw that Li Qingyu's belly looked like a lottery box, and he didn't know what kind of mythical beast would be drawn out.
Both men and women are welcome, Lin Juan really doesn't choose.
"Don't put pressure on her. She can give birth to anything. As long as I have a grandson, I will be so happy." Chen Lin smiled so hard that she couldn't even see her eyes. Lin Juan chuckled and gave Chen Lin the second piece of fruit she peeled.
.
Even if you have a daughter-in-law, you can’t forget me. Li Qingyu took Chen Lin’s arm and said with satisfaction: “Mom is better.”
The family happily found a movie to watch. At the same time, the outside world was also very lively. Many city squares were full of people waiting for the countdown. Next year will definitely be another good year.
…
"Everyone, let's talk about your opinions."
On January 5th, the new year's shareholders' meeting was held in the Chenguang Building to summarize last year's earnings and look forward to the future. At this time, Yang Nuo smiled and said to the people present at the lecture above.
Lin Juan, as one of the shareholders, also participated in this meeting. He sat in the third row of the conference venue. This shareholders' meeting included some senior executives of the company's shareholdings, with more than 100 people in attendance.
At this time, they all have a report in front of them, which shows the company's operating performance last year.
Lin Juan looked at the report and touched his nose. The sight of everyone present made him quite embarrassed.
"Last year, our company invested in a total of 27 film and television dramas, with a total expenditure of 3.6 billion yuan, including the six movies we participated in the investment last year. A total of 18 movies were released, with a total global box office of 32.6 billion yuan, of which
The two films "League of Legends" and "Iron Man 2" directed by director Lin Juan, as well as "Captain of the Great Powers" directed and produced by his screenwriter, have a total box office of 23.4 billion yuan."
"Our total profit last year was 8.6 billion, of which more than 6 billion was created by Lin Juan, including 800 million from his studio's dividends. If peripherals and copyrights are included, our company's own profits would be
It’s only just two billion, which is nearly one billion less than last year.”
"What are you doing? Does everyone in the company expect Lin Juan to make money alone?" Yang Lei's clear question echoed in the conference room, and no one answered.
In fact, Yang Lei did not mention the movies such as "Star Wars" directed by Zhang Mou and others, otherwise the profit would not be that much. However, compared to the three movies he mentioned, the money from other parts was relatively less. The total added
It only amounts to about 300 million yuan. After all, there are too many companies paying dividends.
Facing Yang Lei's inquiry at this time, many people present looked unhappy. They were the company's managers. This was indeed because their work was not done properly. The movies released this year, except for Lin Juan's ones, were too profitable.
If it's less, most will still lose money.
But those shareholders who didn't care were in a daze, thinking...
[What nonsense are you telling the truth? Isn’t it enough to have Lin Juan? 】
[More than two billion is already very impressive. Think about it a few years ago, when you made a profit of two or three billion a year, you would have a celebration banquet]
[If Lin Juan hadn’t brought up the surrounding area and opened up channels, he might not have even had these two billion]
【……】
Lin Juan was simply embarrassed in this atmosphere. He simply calculated how much dividends he could get. He had a 5% share of the profit of more than 8 billion. Well... after deducting taxes, it was about 400 million, which was okay.
Bar!
My studio’s profit last year seemed to be 5.8 billion, which includes a lot of dividends, peripherals, copyrights, reprints, etc. The copyrights are really valuable, but I only gave 15% to Chen Guang.
Lin Juan calculated his current net worth. Not counting stocks and the like, his net worth should be more than 30 billion. This is because he invested more than 1 billion to build a film and television city.
emmm... How should I spend so much money? I can't even spend it all on the interest alone.
How about building some kind of industry? For example, the movie museum that I thought about before? Spend several billion on it.
"Nothing to say? Okay, then I will announce the establishment of a plan. I believe many people know about the "Nezha" that the company invested in some time ago. The "League" series of universes directed by Lin Juan let us know that the movie universe is successful.
But we can’t just rely on Lin Juan alone. The sporadic film investment we had in the past is equivalent to fishing for fish with a net, and we can only rely on the weather to make ends meet. We have to open another fish pond ourselves.”
"We in China have a lot of classic elements that can be produced. We need to dig deeper. Since we already have a "Nezha", we will dig deeper and make a "Feng Shen" series universe. We don't need live performances, just make full CG
Movies, opening up a new CG movie market! Shoot our own Chinese style!"
As soon as Yang Nuo said this, the scene suddenly became lively. Everyone had a look of surprise or deep thought on their faces and began to whisper to each other. Yang Nuo said, "You can tell me if you have any opinions."
After a few seconds, a senior producer raised his hand and asked: "Hey, Mr. Yang, I wonder who can be the general manager if we do this project?"
This is indeed a problem. If there is no unified thought and no line, what kind of movie universe is it? The plot will not match up.
But why are you looking at Lin Juan while you are talking?!
