Chapter 1411 (1/2)
After hanging up the phone, Xiao Yunhai rubbed his temple and said with a wry smile to Zhao Wanqing: ”look, wife, I know that as long as I come to Los Angeles, there will be a big basket of things waiting for me. Before we got home, things came. Well, I'm not relieved. ”
Zhao Wanqing said with a smile: ”you deserve it. At the beginning, artists set up their own studio, which you proposed. You don't deal with it. Who's responsible for it? ”
”Yes, I did. Wife, remember it for me Xiao Yunhai broke his finger and said, ”tomorrow morning, we need to go to a meeting to solve the problems of the artist studio; at two o'clock in the afternoon, we will meet Ms. Rowling, the author of the Harry Potter series, to discuss the publishing and shooting of the next two novels; in the evening, we will go to the premiere of” Jingang ”to see the masterpiece of Mr. bickervin, the first director of marvel At two o'clock in the afternoon, I went to Paramount Pictures to attend the board of directors of STEL networks. David Steele came to Los Angeles and began to do small things again. ”
Zhao Wanqing said angrily, ”I think you really lack a business secretary now. You have so much trouble before you get home. By the way, what's wrong with Ms. Rowling? Don't you already have an agreement? The next two Harry Potter films were sold out for five million dollars
Xiao Yunhai said with a smile, ”yes. The contract was written in black and white. As long as there was any other Harry Potter companion, it had to be sold to me for five million dollars. But, wife, now the Harry Potter series are all over the world, and a novel alone can make more than a billion dollars at the box office. If you were Ms. Rowling, would you be willing to sell it for five million dollars
So far, the total sales volume of the five Harry Potter novels has reached 600 million copies. The total box office of the first four films has exceeded 23 billion US dollars, which means more Internet downloads. As for the fifth one, which is still under shooting, MGM is going to make it into 3D version. I heard it will be finished in a month or two. At that time, the box office of five billion dollars will not be a problem.
That is to say, the five volumes of Harry Potter that Xiao Yunhai bought out at the beginning with 25 million dollars have brought him nearly 8 billion dollars of wealth. In his eyes, the money is nothing, but in the eyes of ”poor” like Rowling, this is not the case.
Let alone eight billion, even 800 million, is a huge sum of money for them.
Zhao Wanqing said: ”if it was me, I would not. There's no reason to ask for a higher price from you
Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, ”yes. But she has another option, which is not to sell. Look, if we don't get along, she won't sell me the remaining two
Zhao Wanqing frowned and said, ”what are you going to do?”
Xiao Yunhai said with a smile: ”give her a satisfactory price. Wife, you can't be too greedy. Harry Potter series has brought us so much money. It's time to give some benefits to Ms. Rowling. Besides, we are not short of the money Harry Potter has brought us now
Zhao Wanqing said: ”the rich are most afraid of being insensitive. Husband, I'm really happy that you can think so. I support you. ”
Xiao Yunhai laughs and hugs Zhao Wanqing in his arms and kisses him fiercely.
Zhao Wanqing was bashful and wrung the meat on Xiao Yunhai's waist and said in a low voice, ”is someone there?”
Xiao Yunhai quickly said, ”OK, I'm wrong. Auntie, please let me go. It's killing me. ”
Zhao Wanqing glanced at him and said, ”pretend.”
With Xiao Yunhai's Kung Fu, let alone wring his waist, it is impossible to beat him with pain even if he fights hard.
After a little disturbance, they returned to their villa.
Since the purchase of the villa, Xiao Yunhai stayed at most for more than a month all year round, and Zhao Wanqing came even less.
Therefore, Zhao Wanqing is familiar with and somewhat unfamiliar with the manor, which is much larger than the three villas in Yanjing.
After dinner, the two men in couple's down jackets walked on the grass for several times.
Perhaps because of the time difference, Zhao Wanqing felt a little uncomfortable, so Xiao Yunhai accompanied her to her room to have a rest.
At nine o'clock the next morning, Xiao Yunhai drove to the company headquarters.
Raul, moyina, bickervin and David had been waiting for him in front of the building. Seeing Xiao Yunhai's car slowly driving in, Raul quickly trotted over and opened the door for him.
