Traveling through the Tokyo bubble era

Chapter 408: Marvel news, monster universe, and steady money-making business
"Police Story? Isn't this movie already released?"

In Hanyu Hideki's memory, this movie was released at the end of 1985 and at the beginning of 1986.

When it was released, Asian theater chains had not yet been established.

"It's not the Hong Kong box office, it's the overseas box office. I heard that neon is selling very well in Europe and the United States."

Peter Fang explained.

“So that’s it, let’s go back and ask what the box office is at Neon.

But it was really unexpected that Boss Zou suddenly invited me. "

If Hideki Hanyu remembers correctly, "Police Story 1" should also be released at Crescent Cinema.

However, when the Asian department was established, he had poached the Jiahe Academy line.

This kind of old man who has been ups and downs in the business world for many years will not be able to afford it early without any profit.

You will never invite him for no reason.

But instead of worrying about why, it’s better to go directly and know everything by then.

Thinking of this, he said to Fang Peter, "Reply for me. I will be there on time tomorrow."

"Ok."

After Peter Fang finished speaking, he reported to Hideki Hanyu about the current situation of some Asian theater chains.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Hanyu Hideki said goodbye to Fang Peter.

Walking downstairs, ready to take a look at Shengshi Real Estate.

I heard from his subordinates that Luo Zhaohui was already on the line with that Zheng Daheng, and the early stage of the Chongqing Building project was progressing very smoothly.

However, Hanyu Hideki guessed that this had something to do with him.

With his funds and reputation, and his cooperation with Mr. Zheng, Luo Zhaohui has been acting like a bad guy in the upper class of Xiangjiang recently. Although he has not reached the level of "a villain succeeds", he still looks like a new rich man. posture.

In fact, at this point, Hanyu Hideki can also understand Luo Zhaohui's approach.

After all, when doing business in a place like Xiangjiang, sometimes you can't be too low-key, otherwise it will be difficult to do some things.

Before coming to "Hopewell Center" today, he did not say hello in advance.

I don't know if Luo Zhaohui is here.

As a result, when we arrived at the place, although the smoky situation last time did not appear, there were also some more office workers in Shengshi Real Estate.

But just as he expected, Luo Zhaohui was not there.

On the contrary, Luo Zhaohui's friend named Deng Jiaming was there.

After meeting Hanyu Hideki, this person showed great familiarity and enthusiasm.

"Boss, why didn't you say hello when you came today? Ah Hui went to the building to do some work in person. Do you want me to call him back?"

After all, in Deng Jiaming's opinion.

Based on the relationship between his cousin Zhang Yan and Hanyu Hideki.

He felt that he should be closer to Hanyu Hideki than Luo Zhaohui.

As for the beauty Seki who was following Hanyu Hideki.

From Deng Jiaming's point of view, it's not a problem at all. This is a big boss. What's wrong with having a few beauties around him?

But he couldn't help but think about it. He must meet his cousin when he has time and give her some advice.

If this woman wants to win favor, she has to rely on her belly.

As long as you can help the boss give birth to a son and a half, even if you can't enter a wealthy family, you will still be rich for a lifetime.

Naturally, Hanyu Hideki didn't know what Deng Jiaming was thinking.

However, he didn't want to disturb Luo Zhaohui's work, so he said it directly.

"There's no need to ask him to come back. I'm just here to look around and listen to my people's reports. Your progress is very good."

Deng Jiaming replied, "There is some progress, but it is troublesome for people in the building to vacate the house. We have been busy with these things recently. If the boss comes a little later, I will go over there to help Ah Hui."

Hideki Hanyu said, "Do a good job, I'm waiting for good news from you two."

"Don't worry, boss, we will definitely work hard."

Having said this, Deng Jiaming seemed to remember something and took out a folder from the drawer in his office and handed it to Hanyu Hideki.

"Boss, this is what you told us last time. Let us help you find suitable properties. We have carefully selected these properties and they will definitely meet your wishes."

After hearing Deng Jiaming's words, Hanyu Hideki opened the folder and read it.

When the lady Guan next to her heard this, she also looked over curiously.

She thought to herself that Hanyu Hideki already owned a mansion in Repulse Bay, so why did he want to buy real estate again.

Hanyu Hideki opened it and looked at it, and found that Luo Zhaohui had indeed put his heart into it.

The real estate information in the folder ranges from Repulse Bay to Deep Water Bay, Pak Kin Shi Road, Victoria Peak, Pak Cathedral Road... and even apartments in Causeway Bay.

The number of properties exceeds twenty.

In particular, the two properties on Baijia Road, No. 35, will be where the Li family will be known as the "Li Family Palace" in the future.

However, it is still an old building without reconstruction.

The other No. 31 is a luxury house that Liu Luanxiong bought for investment in the future development of Chinese Land.

It has not been developed at this time, and it looks like an old house in the photo.

Looking at these properties, Hanyu Hideki first took out all the apartments, and then removed some that were too small and did not like the location.

After some picking and choosing, there were only sixteen properties left, including two on Baijia Road.

Then write on each file.

Finally, Hanyu Hideki handed the selected folder to Deng Jiaming and gave direct instructions.

"I bought them all for me. I have marked which ones need to be renovated and which ones need to be rebuilt. If the land is not enough, I will pay more for it. In short, do as I ask. If you need money, go directly to the finance department."

"Yes...yes, I will seize the time to help the boss get it done."

Deng Jiaming's voice was trembling.

He originally thought that Hanyu Hideki would only choose one or two sets in the folder.

Who would have thought that Hideki Hanyu wanted to buy most of the real estate.

He knew without detailed calculations that the money required to buy these houses was an astronomical figure for ordinary people.

It seems that I really need to persuade my cousin quickly.

What's the point of living in a boss's apartment?

Hurry up and give birth to a son. When the boss is happy, he might be able to give away a few luxury houses.

When the time comes, his cousin, the son of a big boss, will also be able to take advantage of the opportunity.

Deng Jiaming was like this, and Guan Meiren next to her was equally shocked.

Hideki Hanyu looks so arrogant when he buys a luxury house rather than buying big-name clothes. It's really charming.

You must please Hanyu Hideki.

Maybe Hanyu Hideki will be in a good mood one day, and there will be a house that belongs to her here.

After all, the house in the folder is not a small apartment worth hundreds of thousands or an ordinary villa worth several million.

Rather, they are super luxury homes that start at a minimum of tens of millions.

After putting away the folder, Deng Jiaming continued to ask, "Boss, apart from these, will I help you keep an eye on other houses in the future?"

Hideki Hanyu thought for a while and said, "No need."

Buying these houses is just a matter of convenience.

Except for the rebuilt ones that he plans to use for himself, the others are also properties in good locations, easy to rent, and easy to sell.

If he goes further to speculate in real estate, he really doesn't have the time.

For him, the opportunities to make a fortune were plentiful.

If you really have an idea, you might as well invest some money and let Luo Zhaohui work on it.

"You guys do your best. If there's anything urgent, please contact my assistant and I'll leave first."

After saying this, Hideki Hanyu stood up and prepared to leave.

"that……"

Deng Jiaming seemed to want to say something, but he glanced at Guan Meiren next to Hanyu Hideki and hesitated.

"What's wrong?" Hanyu Hideki asked.

Deng Jiaming said quickly, "I just want to ask the boss if he is free tomorrow night? A Hui and I will treat the boss to dinner then."

Hideki Hanyu said, "I have promised Jiahe's boss Zou to attend Jiahe's celebration banquet tomorrow night. Let's discuss the meal and other matters another day."

"Then let's wait for another day. I'll see you off, boss."

Deng Jiaming said, and sent Hanyu Hideki, who stood up to leave, to the elevator entrance.

After Hanyu Hideki left, he looked at the declining numbers in the elevator.

Thoughtfully, he said to himself, "Jiahe's celebration party..."
-
Hanyu Hideki took Guan Meiren to the garage.

Sitting in the Bentley, he asked Guan Meiren, "Do you want to accompany me to Jiahe's celebration party tomorrow night?"

When the lady Guan next to her heard this, she said evasively, "Um... I have an appointment with friends tomorrow night, so I won't go to Jiahe's celebration party."

"what?"

Hanyu Hideki looked at Guan Meiren strangely.

He really didn't expect that this woman who loved to join in the fun and be in the limelight would skip such lively occasions.

Guan Meiren explained with some embarrassment, "I rejected a movie invitation before, which was from Jiahe and Cheng Long. It's a bit awkward to go at this time."

Hideki Hanyu said funnyly, "You can avoid tomorrow, but you can't avoid the charity dinner the day after tomorrow."

"It takes a day to hide. There are so many people at the charity dinner the day after tomorrow, and they may not be able to see me."

Guan Meiren is taking a chance.

Hanyu Hideki said indifferently, "It's up to you."

"Darling, you are the best..."
-
After running around Hong Kong during the day and sorting out the main things, Hideki Hanyu had no intention of hanging around.

After having a French meal with Miss Guan, we returned to the house in Repulse Bay.

But when he returned to the house, he was not idle either.

Something from America got to him.

In Seattle, all matters concerning the investment in Howard Schultz's "Daily Coffee" company have been settled.

Dante Kane is also determined to leave the secretary's office and join Hope Angel Investment Company.

Hanyu Hideki asked Dante Kane to directly contact Honda Honda, the head of Hope Angel Investment, to complete the subsequent onboarding work.

As for Yunshang Pictures, the contract to invest in "Angels in the World" has also been negotiated with De Laurentiis Entertainment Group and the contract has been officially signed.

Fred Weber reported this incident specifically to Hideki Hanyu.

The old Italian fox Dino De Laurentiis also contacted Hideki Hanyu and said that in order to celebrate the cooperation, he would like to invite Hideki Hanyu to dinner and discuss the casting of the movie.

Hideki Hanyu wished that "Angels in the World" would follow the same casting process as in his previous life, and then it would be a complete mess, allowing him to successfully obtain the rights to "King Kong".

Therefore, how could it be possible to intervene at will and directly indicate that others are in Asia and decline on the grounds that they cannot go back temporarily.

However, the Italian finally embraced Hanyu Hideki's thick legs, so how could he give up so easily.

He repeatedly said that it didn't matter, and the casting could start after Hideki Hanyu returned to America.

This kind of enthusiasm made Hideki Hanyu unable to refuse.

After all, even if he wanted to make the movie fail, he couldn't make it too obvious.

In the end, he could only reply that he was not sure when he would return to America.

The crew can make preparations first, and he can just go back and take a look.

Seeing Hanyu Hideki finally finished the phone call.

Guan Meiren came up curiously.

The beautiful body slipped into Hanyu Hideki's arms like a snake, sat on the scumbag's lap, and put her hands around the scumbag's neck.

"Darling, what were you talking about just now?"

Anyway, it was not something that needed to be kept secret, so Hideki Hanyu casually talked about his investment in Hollywood.

Guan Meiren's eyes immediately lit up when she heard this, "Darling, the last time you came here, you didn't even say that you had investments in Hollywood."

Hideki Hanyu said, "Because when I came here last time, my company had not yet started to develop in Hollywood."

Guan Meiren said, "In just a few months, you can invest tens of millions of dollars in a movie. Darling, your company is really amazing."

Hearing this, Hideki Hanyu seemed to have guessed something when he saw the intense interest in Guan Meiren's eyes.

He smiled and asked, "Why, are you also interested in Hollywood?"

"Of course, there are millions of dollars to shoot a movie there, so who wouldn't want to go there."

Guan Meiren looked yearning.

Hideki Hanyu tapped the Shimonoseki beauty's forehead and said, "Don't think about it. There are currently no stars in Hong Kong who can earn high salaries there, but that may be the case in the future."

"The future? Darling, do you think it's possible for me?" Guan Meiren asked impatiently.

Hideki Hanyu deliberately looked up and down at Guan Meiren, then shook his head and said, "Although you are very beautiful, you don't fit in with the aesthetics there. It's impossible."

Guan Meiren asked curiously, "What does Hollywood like?"

"At least the figure must be good enough." Hanyu Hideki said.

Guan Meiren was not convinced when she heard this. She stood up from Hanyu Hideki's arms and struck a pose to show off her figure.

Deliberately saying in a seductive tone, "Isn't my figure good enough?"

Hanyu Hideki shook his head pretending to be serious, "It's not good enough. Drink more papaya soup in the future."

Guan Meiren immediately broke through the defense, took Hanyu Hideki's hand and pushed it into his arms.

"Hmph...touch it yourself. You clearly said you liked it before..."

"Ha ha……"

After the two had some fun, Miss Kwan got back into the scumbag's arms and asked curiously, "You said there is a Hong Kong star who can earn high salaries in Hollywood in the future. Who is it?"

"Who knows? But judging from the current salary development in Hollywood, he must be an action star."

Of course Hideki Hanyu knows who it is.

But it's impossible to really say it now.

Later generations recognized that most of the celebrities in Hong Kong who were relatively successful in the United States were full of moisture.

In other words, Cheng Long actually entered the 2000 million club with "Rush Hour".

Thinking of this, Hanyu Hideki felt that when he went to Jiahe tomorrow, he could talk to Cheng Long in advance.

The two movies "Trench" and "The Great and Powerful" have tested the waters and proved it.

Both Jiahe and Cheng Long are very interested in breaking into Hollywood.

But what he is worried about is that at this point in time, Cheng Long's style is a bit ahead of his time in Hollywood.

After all, the current mainstream action movies in Hollywood still feature super macho men like Schwarzenegger and Stallone.

Even though Bruce Willis in "Die Hard" is a little more ordinary, he is still one against a hundred.

Like Cheng Long's acrobatic-like action style after being hit and rubbing his hands in pain, if he did it now, he would probably be thrown into the street.

However, it is also good to contact them in advance.

At least when the time comes, cooperation will be smooth sailing.

"Darling, what are you thinking about? Why are you suddenly in a daze?" Guan Meiren asked curiously.

"It's nothing." Hanyu Hideki put aside the thoughts in his mind.

"If there's nothing else, just go to bed. It's getting late."

While Guan Meiren was speaking, she grabbed Hanyu Hideki's neck and walked toward the bedroom.

"Huh... I think you don't want to sleep, but something else."

"Darling, don't you want to?"

"Then it depends on your performance."

"Hmm...is this...comfortable..."
-
Hideki Hanyu thought that those phone calls yesterday were all about America.

As a result, early in the morning on No. 18, I received another call from "Qiuhua" from New York.

But because of the time difference, it should be afternoon in New York on the other end of the phone.

"BOSS, there is something from Marvel Comics that I need to tell you."

Hanyu Hideki asked, "What's going on? Has Cardans Industrial decided to raise a price?"

Monica Bellucci said, "No, but a German film company came to Marvel to buy the film rights to the Fantastic Four, so they specifically notified us."

When Hideki Hanyu heard what Aka said, he suddenly became nervous.

Ask directly, "What's the name of that German film company?"

Monica Bellucci replied, "Constantine Films."

After "Buka" said the name, Hanyu Hideki thought that it was indeed this company.

In the previous life, Marvel completely lost the copyright to "Fantastic Four" precisely because it sold the copyright to Constantine Pictures.

In the 90s, Marvel was financially ruined by Perelman and had to sell his son to save his life.

The authorized filming in the 80s cannot be described simply as selling one's son.

After all, DC comic book movies are a hit, and Marvel also wants to bring its own comic characters to the big screen to create more revenue and further boost comic sales.

This is the same as the original intention of Neon Publishing House to shoot TV animation and theatrical animation.

But no one could predict how much trouble this sale would cause in the future.

In a previous life, after Constantine Pictures bought the rights to "Fantastic Four", they might have really considered making a movie.

But what no one expected was that in 1987, "Superman 4" became a huge hit, which directly made comic book movies become more and more popular.

But Constantine didn't want to give up the copyright, so before the copyright expired, he hurriedly produced a movie that didn't even hit the theaters.

Later, through cooperation with th Century Fox, the copyright of "Fantastic Four" was shared with th Century Fox.

Since then, there has been no possibility of the "Fantastic Four" returning home.

Thinking of this, Hanyu Hideki asked Guohua on the other end of the phone, "Is it Cardans Industrial's idea?"

Monica Bellucci replied, "This matter has nothing to do with Cadence Industries. It was brokered by Stan Lee, the editor-in-chief of Marvel Comics."

"I knew it was this old bastard!" Hanyu Hideki said angrily.

Many fans in later generations felt that many comic book heroes were sold because of the capital behind Marvel Comics.

But as everyone knows, the culprit for the loss of many important characters is actually their biological father, Stan Lee.

Again, the popularity of DC's Superman has led Hollywood to see the potential of comic book movies.

In this case, Marvel naturally wants a piece of the pie.

The most proactive among them is Stan Lee.

It is undeniable that Stan Lee made a great contribution to Marvel Comics and created countless popular comic characters.

In the end.

Stan Lee was more concerned about his own interests.

especially!It was about selling his son.

In the early 80s, DC Comics launched a reform, that is, if the sales of comics exceed copies, the artists and screenwriters can receive a % royalty.

In order to prevent the loss of talent due to competition, Marvel had to follow up in a hurry.

However, under the influence of Stan Lee, the chicken thief turned the royalties into "incentive awards".

This prevents the painters and screenwriters from receiving other subsequent shares.

But later, when Stan Lee moved his studio to Los Angeles.

He began to proactively promote his roles to film companies.

During this period, Marvel Comics, under the leadership of Stan Lee, licensed its own comic characters.

So selling sons didn’t just start in the 90s.

However, due to the poor performance of the movie, these copyrights eventually returned to Marvel.

What "coincidentally" is that for all copyrights authorized by Stan Lee, Stan Lee has a clause of receiving 10% of the film's revenue.

Perhaps this is why Stan Lee is so active in promoting comic book rights to the outside world.

After all, the ownership of his biological son is not as important as the profits that actually fall into his own pocket.

In 1985, Stan Lee contacted one of the owners of Cannon Pictures, Hollywood producer 'Minahan Golan'.

The rights to "Spider-Man" and "Captain America" ​​were sold for more than $20.

In this contract, there is still a clause of Stan Lee's "10%" movie profit sharing.

In Stan Lee's view, the powerful Cannon Pictures, which had received investment from Wall Street, could earn millions in salary for Minahan Golan in the 80s.

You can definitely invest huge sums of money to shoot Marvel movies and make yourself a lot of money.But what's the result?

Let's talk about "Captain America" ​​first. The copyright had just been sold, but the comic book movie was no longer available. Cannon Pictures also suffered a financial collapse due to poor management and was on the verge of bankruptcy.

Seeing that the five-year licensing period was approaching, a "Captain America" ​​movie was hastily filmed.

Some people said that this movie was released in theaters, but it only took US dollars at the box office. Others said that it was not released in theaters at all.

All in all, it was a serious failure, and the copyright returned to Marvel.

Compared with "Captain America", "Spider-Man" is not so lucky.

At first, Cannon Pictures planned to shoot a thriller-themed Spider-Man, but Marvel opposed it.

Then the market for comic-book movies cooled down, and Cannon Pictures went bankrupt due to poor management, spending millions without even making a film.

But even if Cannon Pictures collapsed, Minahan Golan did not give up the copyright of Spider-Man and left the company with the copyright.

Originally, at this time, the licensing time for "Spider-Man" had expired, and Marvel could have taken back the copyright.

But at this time, Minahan Golan hooked up with truck driver Cameron and planned to cooperate with other film companies to shoot "Spider-Man".

This convinced Stan Lee, who was "money-minded", to agree to renew the contract for another five years.

It was this critical five-year contract extension that caused "Spider-Man" to never return to Marvel's hands.

Later, Sony Columbia's "Spider-Man" series became a hit, and Stan Lee sued Marvel for defaulting on his share of the proceeds, relying on the formal contract he signed to sell his son in 1985.

Hideki Hanyu actually knew all of this.

But he doesn't care, after all, in his opinion, as long as Marvel can get it.

Only non-renewal authorization is required after a few years.

Reclaiming the rights to Spider-Man is not difficult.

By the way, Stan Lee's share-sharing contract was also recovered.

So no action was taken before.

But now "Fantastic Four" is different. Constantine Pictures is not Cannon Pictures, and it will close down soon due to poor management.

Once the copyright is sold, it is difficult to get it back.

Thinking of this, Hanyu Hideki immediately said to Monica Bellucci, "Tell Cardans Industrial that we are opposed to any copyright transaction before the acquisition."

"What if Cadence Industries ignores it? Stan Lee is very influential on Cadence Industries. After all, he was the one who brokered this cooperation with Constantine Films."

Monica Bellucci voiced her concerns.

"Then contact Fred Weber of Yunshang Pictures. Just ask Constantine Pictures to raise the price according to any conditions. Doesn't Stan Lee, this old bastard, just want money?"

Hanyu Hideki's tone was very unpleasant.

He really doesn't have a good impression of Stan Lee at all now.

If the copyright is in the hands of Yunshang Pictures, whether it drags on the copyright or directly returns to Marvel when it expires, it all depends on his mood.

As for promises?

If he were to take over Marvel, he would have to follow the example of the Frenchman Arnault who acquired Dior.

They just turned against each other and refused to recognize all the promises made before the acquisition.

Monica Bellucci said, "I understand, I'll contact Fred right now."

"If anything happens, contact me as soon as possible."

"Ok."

……

"Darling... what have you been talking about for so long? Are you going to make a new movie in Hollywood?"

With a sweet voice, Guan Meiren climbed on Mr. Hanyu's back.

Looking at the gorgeously dressed Guan Meiren, Hanyu Hideki did not answer the other party's question, but asked instead.

"Didn't you invite your friends to go shopping at noon? Why aren't you leaving yet?"

"That...actually..."

Guan Meiren was vague and stopped talking.

"Tell me, what do you want? Is your credit card maxed out this month?"

Guan Meiren nodded sheepishly.

Hearing this, Hanyu Hideki helplessly held his forehead and said.

“Credit card, plus the chargebacks from Asian Cinemas, your expenses in this half month are higher than the average person’s salary in two or three years.

I'm curious, how did you support yourself without me? "

Guan Zhilin immediately got into Hanyu Hideki's arms, twisted his body and acted coquettishly.

"There was no Darling before, so of course you had to save money on your money. Now people spend so much money, isn't it just to dress up and make you happy, Darling..."

"Be happy for me, I think it's only right to be happy for you."

Hanyu Hideki said this, but he still took out his wallet, took out a credit card and handed it to Guan Meiren.

Guan Meiren took the card and immediately kissed her, "Yeah - thank you Darling..."

"Haha, I wonder what will happen to your habit of spending money lavishly if I don't care about you one day."

Hanyu Hideki's words made Guan Meiren feel a sense of crisis.

I hugged Hideki Hanyu and started to kiss me and me, acting coquettishly to please him, for fear of losing Hideki Hanyu's favor.

After all, after marrying Hideki Hanyu, she is spending money at a rate that even the highest-paid movie stars in Hong Kong cannot afford.

The thought of Hanyu Hideki really leaving her alone frightened her.

There are certainly many super-rich people in Hong Kong as a whole.

But as far as she knew, people like Hideki Hanyu who were willing to spend money on women couldn't even pick them out.

Besides, it is really not easy for Xiangjiang to find someone richer than Hanyu Hideki.

I am used to this kind of consumption that is comparable to that of a rich wife, but is freer and more beautiful than a rich wife.

It is absolutely impossible for her to go back to the days she had before.

"Okay, don't bother me anymore and go out to play."

Hanyu Hideki was very annoyed by Guan Meiren.

"I'll leave now, but..."

Seeing that Guan Meiren was hesitant to speak again.

Hanyu Hideki said angrily, "I've given you this card, what else can you do?"

"I want to use the car...is that okay..."

The car Guan Mei talks about naturally refers to the Bentley Mulsanne.

"Don't you think it's a bit old-fashioned for a woman like you to go out in a Bentley?" Hanyu Hideki asked strangely.

"As long as you have face, it doesn't matter if you are old-fashioned." Guan Meiren said nonchalantly.

"Go ahead, go ahead." Hanyu Hideki waved his hand.

"Thank you Darling, what car will you take to Jiahe to attend the celebration banquet in the afternoon?" Guan Meiren asked.

"Isn't there a Mercedes-Benz in the garage? I can just drive it at night."

"That big off-road vehicle? It's so big and looks so weird."

"Men just like to drive big cars. What do you know?"

"Why don't I understand? That's not what you said when you drove me last night."

"Xiaolang Hoozi, I'll take care of you when I get back in the evening."

"Cuckoo..."

Seeing Guan Meiren running away with a coquettish smile, Hanyu Hideki shook his head helplessly.

I sat back at the desk again and started writing and drawing.

If you look carefully, what he is creating now is not a novel or a picture book.

Instead, they are strange monsters with ferocious looks and majestic figures.

These monsters are collectively called... Titans by him.

Titan No. 1: MUTO.

Position: Destroyer.

Under the category of MUTO, under each simple outline of the titan beast image, there is a detailed text introduction.

Male MUTO: about 61 meters tall, with a wingspan of 136 meters, details...

Female MUTO: about 91.4 meters tall, without wings, details...

Queen Muto: About 94.5 meters tall, without wings, details...

Supreme MUTO: 103.6 meters tall, without wings, details...

Titan No. 2: Behemoth
Position: Guardian.

Height: 107.9 meters.

details……

……

That's right, with the high possibility of acquiring the copyright to "King Kong", Hideki Hanyu has already started building the follow-up monster universe in advance.

In another time and space, Legendary Pictures expands the background of the Monster Universe.

In addition to classic monsters such as Godzilla, King Kong, Mothra, and Ghidorah, many original Titans have been created using folk tales, myths and legends as inspiration.

Hideki Hanyu created these Titan monsters, as well as the "Emperor Plan" and the world view of the Monster Universe in advance.

Although the technology is not mature enough to make related movies yet, it doesn't matter at all.

This does not prevent him from using Yunshang Culture, Yunshang Entertainment, and Elf Entertainment to first create novels, comics, animations, and series of games, and firmly lock the copyright in his own hands.

And in his view.

Compared with Legend's approach of suddenly throwing out the entire monster universe, fans have to accept a lot of content at once.

First, use related works and games to subtly operate the entire 'Monster Universe' IP.

It will undoubtedly be easier to achieve success if the film is released when the technology is mature.

Once the 'Monster Universe' can be successfully established, not only Elf Entertainment will have another monster series game IP.

Cloud Entertainment will also have its own monster film and television series.

In fact, all this must really develop according to his expectations.

Perhaps in the future, when the technology matures, filming a Monster Universe movie will be just the icing on the cake.

Over the past ten to twenty years, the value created by the entire "Monster Universe" IP is probably much greater than the profits gained from a few movies.

In this way, Hanyu Hideki was busy until the afternoon.

While he was creating, the Filipino maid suddenly came to remind him carefully.

"Sir, the stylist is already here."

"Stylist?"

Hideki Hanyu said something strange at first, and then remembered that he specially asked the stylist to come to the house because of Jiahe's celebration party.

He slapped his forehead and said, "I was so busy that I almost forgot."

Putting down his pen, he simply collected the manuscript paper on the table, locked it in the safe, and then walked downstairs. With the help of a stylist, he tidied up his appearance for today's Jiahe celebration banquet.

The last time he came to Xiangjiang, he took the route of a noble son of the Republic of China.

This time when he attended Jiahe's celebration banquet, he had a different style.

The traditional three-piece British suit with vest is slim-cut, crisp and stylish, perfectly highlighting his slender and healthy figure of over 1.8 meters.

Pair it with a British retro oil head and half-rimmed gold eyes.

After finishing the styling, he walked to the mirror and looked at himself in the mirror.

I just want to say three words, very handsome!

The style is slightly retro, the temperament is slightly mature and full of charm, and there is a hint of ruffianism.

If I had to describe it, it would be like the heir of a reclusive family in popular romance novels.

Of course, he is usually the second male lead in the story.

He is the kind of character who pursues the silly and sweet heroine crazily, but still loses to the half-hearted commoner hero who is full of true love.

But a story is a story.

In reality, given his worth, current appearance, and scumbag ways.

Whether a girl can escape from his Wuzhishan depends on whether he is willing or not.

With this look, drive the domineering black Mercedes-Benz G-Class.

Hideki Hanyu headed to his destination tonight.

He was very familiar with that place, having lived there for a long time when he last came here.

Regent Hotel.

The celebration banquet was held in a hall with an observation deck overlooking the night view of Victoria Harbor.

Jiahe is the "overlord" of the Hong Kong film industry.

In addition, the celebration banquet was to celebrate Cheng Long's movie, so many people in the industry came to appreciate it.

When Hideki Hanyu arrived, in addition to the celebrities who entered one after another, there were also some entertainment reporters waiting outside the door, taking the opportunity to interview the arriving guests.

So when Hanyu Hideki's Mercedes-Benz with a very different style but full of momentum stopped at the door.

It immediately attracted the attention of many guests and reporters.

The door is open.

Hanyu Hideki, who is more handsome than a celebrity, stepped out of the car.

He handed the key to the bodyguard who followed him.

Then he buttoned his suit and walked towards the door.

Arrived early, Fang Peter, the general manager of Asia Cinemas, who was waiting outside the door and was being interviewed by the media. When he saw his boss arriving, he hurriedly said goodbye to the reporters and greeted him.

Say hello with a smile on his face, "Boss, why are you here alone tonight?"

Hanyu Hideki glanced at this guy sideways, "What? Do you want to arrange a female companion for me?"

Peter Fang said with a doggy smile, "I thought Miss Guan would come with the boss, otherwise I would definitely arrange a beautiful woman for the boss."

Hanyu Hideki joked, "Haha, it seems that Manager Fang is living a very happy life these days. He can arrange beautiful women at will."

In fact, Hanyu Hideki didn't even need to guess, he knew that a person in Fang Peter's position would inevitably have people in his circle to please him.

Gifting beautiful women as gifts is a completely normal thing in the entertainment industry.

Peter Fang rubbed his hands, "Everywhere, it's just normal entertainment."

"Be careful, be careful of a fire in the backyard." Hanyu Hideki warned.

He knew, however, that Peter Fang had a family and two children.

According to the power of these women in Xiangjiang, a fire in the backyard accidentally started and was riddled with scandals.

By then, Hideki Hanyu won't even bother to play the trick of "killing Ma Su with tears" and will directly kick this guy out of Asian theaters.

Peter Fang quickly assured, "Hey, of course I understand this. Boss, please don't worry, I will never make a mistake."

"Better so."

Hanyu Hideki's four words of understatement made Fang Peter quickly reflect on whether he had been a little drifting recently.

And just when Hanyu Hideki was walking inside.

Unknowingly, he had become the center of attention at the entrance.

It’s not just that unique appearance.

Also his identity.

After all, it’s another scandal, another report on Hong Kong University, and the establishment of the Asian Cinema Line.

Therefore, Hideki Hanyu is no longer unfamiliar in today's Hong Kong entertainment industry.

Understand what kind of power this young man with outstanding appearance represents.

Don't say anything else.

Just seeing Fang Peter, the general manager of Asia Cinemas, who usually needs to be favored by film company bosses, following Hanyu Hideki with a flattering look on his face, is enough to prove everything.

Hanyu Hideki hadn't even reached the door yet.

The main characters of today's Jiahe celebration banquet, Boss Zou, Boss He, and the protagonist Cheng Long had already gone out in advance to greet them.

What is a boss?

This is the boss.

"Mr. Hanyu is here to welcome you. Today's celebration banquet for Jiahe is really brilliant."

Boss Zou held Hideki Hanyu's hand and said.

Hanyu Hideki said politely, "Mr. Zou is a senior in the film industry and specially invited me. I will definitely come."

"Mr. Hanyu is too polite."

"Absolutely not. I was also a fan of Mr. Bruce Lee's movies when I was a kid. I like to watch the movies produced by Boss Zou the most."

After the meeting, Hideki Hanyu said a few polite words to Boss Zou.

Then he greeted Boss He and Cheng Long.

Especially Cheng Long.

In his previous life, Hideki Hanyu still liked Uncle Long very much.

As for Uncle Long's love life, he himself, a scumbag, is no less generous and has no right to make irresponsible remarks.

So I sincerely commend you.

"Congratulations to Mr. Cheng on the success of the movie. I am a loyal fan of Mr. Cheng. Your performance in Police Story was so wonderful."

"Mr. Hanyu is too kind. The success of police stories in Neon depends on Mr. Hanyu's help."

Facing Hanyu Hideki, Cheng Long also behaved very politely.

In the entire Xiangjiang entertainment circle, Cheng Long is definitely one of the best in understanding Hanyu Hideki's background.

After all, he has been developing in the neon entertainment industry over the years.

Not only his movies, but also his idol's records are selling like crazy.

This year’s album even broke into the top on the Oricon Chart.

Therefore, Cheng Long knew very well how powerful Yunshang Entertainment, which Hanyu Hideki was hiding behind, was in the neon entertainment industry.

Although Toei Co., Ltd. is responsible for distributing his films, they are also scheduled for Crescent Cinemas.

At the promotional meeting before the release, Toei also specially invited a film scheduling manager from Crescent Cinema.

And the filming manager who needed his attention and stepped forward to toast.

To the Hanyu Hideki in front of him, he was simply an insignificant person.

When I really see Hanyu Hideki, I am afraid that even a ninety-degree bow is not enough to express respect.

Hideki Hanyu said, "The box office is good because Mr. Cheng's movies are good enough."

Before coming, he called Neon specifically to inquire about the screening of "Police Story" in Neon.

In the original history, the box office of "Police Story 1" at Neon was 19 billion yen.

However, in this time and space, because Crescent Cinema agreed to double-line screenings, the box office successfully exceeded 26 billion yen.

According to the current exchange rate, it is just over 2000 million Hong Kong dollars.

Hong Kong can get at least 3000 million Hong Kong dollars.

The box office of "Police Story 1" in Hong Kong was only HK$2662 million.

That is to say, the box office revenue of Neon alone is higher than the box office of the entire Hong Kong.

It’s not surprising why Cheng Long attached so much importance to the neon market since the 80s, and even went to release records as an idol.

In addition to records, there are also EPs every year. The speed and efficiency are even higher than many neon local idol singers.

Cheng Long's records are the same as his movies. Although they haven't become big hits, they are more stable.

Thinking of this, Hanyu Hideki felt a little pity.

When Yunshang Entertainment started to gain momentum, Cheng Long's movies had already been acquired by Toei, and the records were handled by Warner.

Otherwise, working with Cheng Long will definitely be a steady and profitable business.
