The Birth of the Best Director

Chapter 168 Two Movies Earn 15 Billion! A Walking Money Printing Machine
……

The Weibo Night awards ceremony has concluded.

Some people received awards and beamed with joy.

For example, Feng Xiaogang's film "Aftershock" won Best Film, which was the biggest award of the night.

He grinned from ear to ear, his big buck teeth always sticking out.

Everyone else was also praising Director Feng, saying he was amazing and awesome, surrounding him like a star being fawned over.

However, while these people were praising Feng Xiaogang, their eyes were constantly fixed on Lu Zhiyuan.

If Lu Zhiyuan showed even the slightest sign of displeasure, they would immediately scatter and pretend not to know Feng Xiaogang.

Unfortunately, Lu Zhiyuan didn't glance at this side once from beginning to end.

He kept whispering to Reba next to him.

He earnestly taught Dilraba how to play the role of a new AI human who had been resurrected from the dead, and had no time to pay attention to other people's affairs.

"Is it over? Let's go then."

At this moment, when he heard the host say that the party was over and ask who to give the applause to again, and then many people got up and left, Lu Zhiyuan suddenly realized what was happening.

He left with Reba.

After he left, the celebrities sitting in the row behind him, who had been practically burying their ears in their ears to listen to him and Dilraba chatting, started gossiping among themselves.

"I never imagined that a great director would train actors like this?"

"If I were Dilraba, I would definitely go crazy."

"He just personally demonstrated to Dilraba how to act like a robot. His acting was even more realistic than the robot's. No wonder he's a great director. His acting skills are amazing."

"The physical body of Alita, the character played by Dilraba, is going to be resurrected. Also, he seemed to have mentioned earlier that Keanu Reeves is going to return as well."

"This should be a sequel to Upgrade, right?"

Without a doubt, Pacific Rim, Real Steel, and Upgrade are all part of a science fiction universe film series.

But only Lu Zhiyuan himself knows where the emphasis lies.

After all, after the movie "Upgrade" ended, no one expected that Dilraba's AI character could be resurrected in a VR virtual reality game.

All I can say is that anything is possible as long as the director has a big enough imagination.

"What are you talking about?"

At this moment, other people walked over out of curiosity. Seeing the celebrities chatting animatedly behind Lu Zhiyuan, they stopped in their tracks, also wanting to know some gossip.

"Nothing, just chatting."

The group exchanged a knowing glance, smiled, and then hurriedly left.

This is something I definitely can't tell anyone.

Go back and think about it; maybe there's some key information in what Lu Zhiyuan just said.

If I can figure it out, I might be able to land a role for myself.

As long as a character has lines, given Lu Zhiyuan's skill in shooting portraits, even a few seconds of screen time can make them go viral.

Just like Gulnazar's Dunhuang flying apsara fairy.

Her pictures were all over the internet in less than 30 seconds after she appeared on screen.

……

Lu Zhiyuan and Reba hurriedly went to the underground parking lot.

Gao Yuanyuan wanted to chase after him, but suddenly remembered that she had been blocked by Lu Zhiyuan, so there was no point in chasing after him.

That cold-blooded guy definitely won't see me.

"Hey."

Gao Yuanyuan sighed softly, her face full of sorrow.

Liu Shishi, standing beside him, didn't hesitate at all. Seeing Lu Zhiyuan leave, she immediately lifted her skirt and chased after him.

"Senior Sister, the dress."

When the assistant saw Liu Shishi run away, she was so frightened that she quickly chased after her.

After walking the red carpet, Liu Shishi was still wearing a haute couture gown, which would normally prevent her from walking so fast.

If the dress is damaged, the brand won't allow a refund, and you'll have to pay a lot of money in compensation.

"Zhiyuan!"

As they reached the entrance, Liu Shishi saw Lu Zhiyuan about to take the elevator away and couldn't help but call out to him from afar.

At that moment, many people looked at them with strange eyes.

Just now, when they saw Lu Zhiyuan about to leave by elevator, all the celebrities who originally wanted to take the elevator backed out.

Don't be reckless.

At this point, going to ride the elevator with a famous director would be considered inconsiderate.

In the entertainment industry, the hierarchy of status is as clearly defined as in feudal society.

The company boss, a top-tier director, is definitely above everyone else.

Other stars, unless they reach the level of Dilraba Dilmurat, are nominated for Hollywood Best Actress, and break the glass ceiling for domestic actresses, will not be able to have a place around these top figures.

As for the others, whether they're first-tier or second-tier, top-tier or not.

None of them worked.

Because capital wants to promote them, and new talents can be promoted every year.

The saying "washed-up celebrities are worse than dogs" refers to those who have been eliminated by capital.

Of course, celebrities who are themselves part of the capital market are not included in this category.

Liu Shishi is neither a top-level figure nor a superstar like Dilraba Dilmurat; at best, she's a low-tier, popular actress.

However, she dared to make Lu Zhiyuan, a famous director, wait for her.

At this moment, many people silently watched the show, waiting for Lu Zhiyuan to speak and give Liu Shishi a thorough dressing down.

"Shishi, are you in a hurry to get to the parking lot? Let's go together."

Unexpectedly, upon hearing Liu Shishi call his name, Lu Zhiyuan considerately reached out and blocked the elevator door from closing, signaling Liu Shishi to come over quickly.

The others were stunned and stared silently at Liu Shishi.

At this moment, Liu Shishi was absolutely overjoyed.

She lifted her skirt, took a few quick steps, and entered the elevator amidst envious and jealous glances from a crowd of people. She nodded to Lu Zhiyuan and said, "Thanks."

"You're welcome."

Lu Zhiyuan removed his hand and calmly waited for the elevator doors to close.

"Zhiyuan, the movie Pacific Rim..."

After entering the elevator, Liu Shishi didn't know what to talk about with Lu Zhiyuan. If they talked about things related to daily life, Lu Zhiyuan probably wouldn't want to listen at all.

As for what happened within her own film crew, she dared not utter a single word about it.

What if Dilraba, who was standing next to her, mentioned Wu Qilong and Lu Zhiyuan misunderstood... Liu Shishi felt she would explode with anger and want to kill Dilraba.

Therefore, she absolutely cannot mention it.

She could only talk to Lu Zhiyuan about his work.

There definitely won't be any problem.

"no problem."

Before Liu Shishi could finish speaking, Lu Zhiyuan smiled and agreed.

"The movie Pacific Rim should have some scientific research personnel. Your image is quite suitable. I will design an elegant and intellectual scientist for you, which is a major supporting role."

"After I finish the character design, I'll have Kun send you a film offer."

"However, my role may not be very big. In this movie, I will continue the style of 'Upgrade' and express a feeling of desolation and vastness."

"There will be many sacrifices, tragic scenes. You can't smile too sweetly; you have to be careful to convey that sense of sadness."

Lu Zhiyuan plans to rename the movie "Pacific Rim" to "Upgrade 2: Pacific Rim".

Of course, all of this is predicated on getting Keanu Reeves on board.

Before securing Keanu Reeves, he won't do much pre-planning; at most, he'll prepare some hardcore background information.

For example, the creation of mecha prototypes.

Miniature city model.

There is a need for one domestically.

Tokyo needs one.

New York needs one too.

Europe needs one too.

This way, we can cover several major box office markets worldwide.

"Zhiyuan, you've misunderstood. I'm not asking you for a role."

Liu Shishi felt a little embarrassed and quietly retorted.

Although she really wanted to act in Lu Zhiyuan's Hollywood blockbuster, she didn't want Lu Zhiyuan to talk to her about it.

It would be best if Brother Kun talked to her.

Lu Zhiyuan bringing this up with her made her seem a bit too materialistic.

It's not the way friends should interact; they only contact Lu Zhiyuan when they want a role.

"No, it's not you asking me for a role, it's me inviting you. I think you'd be great in a role as an intellectual scientist."

"Remember, you promised me. You have to make some time for me."

Lu Zhiyuan smiled and made a joke.

Upon hearing this, Liu Shishi felt a warmth in her heart that brought tears to her eyes, and her tone became exceptionally gentle: "Thank you, Zhiyuan. I will definitely prepare well."

Liu Shishi saw it clearly just now: Grandpa Ge went to Lu Zhiyuan to have a chat, but Lu Zhiyuan sent Grandpa Ge back with just one sentence.

Now, seeing her embarrassment, Lu Zhiyuan takes the initiative to help her make amends.

He really treated me very specially.

Thinking about it carefully, he has never said anything bad about himself, nor has he ever complained about himself.

From this perspective, my treatment with Lu Zhiyuan is much better than that of Gao Yuanyuan and Liu Yifei.

"Shishi, my car is here, I have to go now. Let's get together again next time."

When Lu Zhiyuan went down to the underground parking lot, the driver arranged by the company was already waiting for him at the elevator entrance, so Lu Zhiyuan didn't need to go looking for the car.

"Brother, call me when you get home."

Reba watched Lu Zhiyuan leave.

A little while later, her nanny van arrived.

But Dilraba didn't get into the car immediately. Instead, she looked at Liu Shishi thoughtfully and said, "Sister Xiaoniu, you're really something. You're shameless enough. You know my brother still has feelings for you."

No one else dared to stop Lu Zhiyuan, only Liu Shishi dared to do so.

Those people were self-aware enough to know that stopping Lu Zhiyuan was completely pointless. Because, as everyone knows, Lu Zhiyuan doesn't give face to anyone.

To date, there have been only two exceptions.

Lu Zhiyuan never complained about the two of them; when he mentioned them, he always praised them sincerely.

One is Miss Jing Tian.

The other one is Liu Shishi.

Miss Jing Tian has been a mentor to Lu Zhiyuan. Without her help, Lu Zhiyuan might still be filming some idol drama in China.

Where can one become a top Hollywood director?

As for Liu Shishi...

From Dilraba's perspective, Lu Zhiyuan's feelings towards Liu Shishi were very complicated.

Maybe I used to like her.

She vaguely heard Xin Yukun mention that Liu Shishi and Miss Jing Tian had engaged in a fierce rivalry during the Cannes awards ceremony.

In the end, Miss Jing Tian proved to be the more skillful one, managing to completely outmaneuver Lu Zhiyuan on the Xi'an city wall.

It's such a shame about Dilraba.

Back then, I was nobody, and I didn't even have the courage to express my feelings.

If it were now, and Lu Zhiyuan were still single, she would risk falling out with Miss Jing Tian to bring this robot home.

“Reba, how could I be so shameless? What you just heard was said by Zhiyuan. He was already planning to offer me a film contract.”

Liu Shishi said with a slightly flushed face.

This is her last bit of stubbornness.

"and many more!"

Suddenly realizing something, Liu Shishi turned around abruptly, her eyes shining, and asked urgently, "Reba, what did you just say? You said Zhiyuan still has feelings for me?"

Haha!

That brat Dilraba always finds an opportunity to diss me. After all, I was the first generation of "Road Girl," while she's just the second.

She must be very unhappy.

After all, what woman likes to be second best?

But today, in a moment of panic, she let it slip!

"Sister Niu, you're so cute when you pretend to be silly. No wonder my brother can't forget you."

Liu Shishi was somewhat puzzled by Reba's sudden friendliness towards her.

wrong.

There's definitely a trap.

Although I don't know what dangers there are, just to be on the safe side, I should stay away from Reba.

"Maybe it's because I'm a good actor. Zhiyuan said I have a natural talent for acting. It's just that Tangren Media doesn't have any good scripts, and I'm always doing idol dramas, which has held me back."

Liu Shishi felt that she could even play a village girl well in "The Coffin in the Mountain".

What kind of role can't you play well?

"Sister Niu, it's good that you're confident. Keep it up. Besides, I have some orders for household products that I don't want to take. How about I introduce them to you?"

Instead of mocking her, Dilraba encouraged Liu Shishi and even showed a hint of wanting to win her over.

He proactively offered her some business orders, hoping to make Liu Shishi a lot of money.

"Reba, have you been possessed? You're acting strangely today."

Liu Shishi still remembered that last time she invited Lu Zhiyuan to eat together, Reba came over with two girlfriends after hearing the news.

He deliberately prevented himself from spending time with Lu Zhiyuan.

A mountain in Altay indiscriminately blocks all female celebrities who want to get close to Lu Zhiyuan!

"Sister Xiao Niu, didn't you want to be my sister-in-law?"

"If you want to be my sister-in-law, you need to have some ability. At your current rate of making money, you can't even keep up with me."

"With your lazy attitude, the money you earn in a year isn't even as much as Jing Tian has lost. How are you going to save my brother from this fire if you keep going like this?"

Dilraba suddenly revealed her true feelings and switched her support to Liu Shishi's rise to power.

This left Liu Shishi completely dumbfounded.

However, she heard some key words and rescued Lu Zhiyuan from the fire.

What do you mean?
Could it be that my ideal man is suffering terribly every day while he's with Jing Tian?
That must be it!

Otherwise, why would Dilraba suddenly help me? "My car is here, I'm leaving now."

Just then, Dilraba's van arrived. She waved to Liu Shishi and gracefully got into the van.

"Reba, wait a minute, explain yourself clearly."

Liu Shishi was stunned for a moment, and after she came to her senses, she suddenly became anxious and wanted to know more exact details.

But Dilraba has already left.

Liu Shishi called Reba, but she didn't answer, which almost drove Liu Shishi crazy with worry.

……

In the car.

Dilraba rested her chin on one hand as she sat in the back seat, a faint glint of wisdom in her eyes.

She sighed softly, "That cannon fodder, Sister Cha, is useless. But then again, although she's very beautiful, she's getting old after all."

"Although my brother likes women with the temperament of Sister Cha, he probably doesn't have any interest in women who are over 30."

"After thinking it over, Sister Cow is still the most suitable to be cannon fodder."

"When she cries, her eyes are brimming with tears, and she looks so pitiful. What man wouldn't be moved by that?"

"Besides, when my brother first met Sister Tea, he almost made her cry. But when he first met Sister Little Cow, he praised her for being very intelligent."

"Comparing the two, my brother still likes Sister Xiao Niu the most in his heart."

Reba got all this information from Xin Yukun.

Kun Ge is constantly acting as a pimp for Lu Zhiyuan, trying to separate Miss Jing Tian from Lu Zhiyuan.

If Dilraba had known about this before "Real Steel" was released, she definitely wouldn't have agreed and would have given Xin Yukun a good scolding.

After all, Lu Zhiyuan's entire career still depends on Miss Jing Tian's connections.

However, after the release of "Real Steel," its global box office was poised to reach $10 billion...

Such a big deal, if Miss Jing Tian doesn't want to participate, others will probably be scrambling to do it.

Moreover, Miss Jing Tian's side is not monolithic.

Dilraba has received many text messages in private, asking how Lu Zhiyuan and Miss Jing Tian are getting along.
In case of any unforeseen circumstances, she should notify them immediately.

There are beautiful girls of marriageable age in their family, waiting to take over Lu Zhiyuan's life!
Nowadays, Lu Zhiyuan's value has far exceeded that of Miss Jing Tian herself, changing the dynamic from "woman higher than man" to "man higher than woman."

Without Lu Zhiyuan, Miss Jing Tian could only go home to inherit the family fortune, and in the entertainment industry, she could only be known as the "female CEO of bad movies".

Even without Miss Jing Tian, ​​Lu Zhiyuan is still a top Hollywood director.

Because he has already proven himself.

“My brother’s strength is constantly improving. I also need to improve my own value... otherwise, I will eventually be unworthy of him.”

"No, my studio also needs to hire more 'workhorses' and make them work hard to make money for me, and it would be best to take the company public."

Dilraba is currently very popular. In addition to Lu Zhiyuan's movies, she is offered 40 yuan per episode for regular TV dramas.

She can earn 2000 million yuan in just three months by joining a production team.

In addition, she has many endorsements, each worth about 200 million yuan a year, and she has more than twenty of them.

Over the course of a year, the guaranteed income is over 5000 million.

But that's far from enough!

Because Lu Zhiyuan's film "Real Steel" earned him over 1 million US dollars.

She earns RMB, while Lu Zhiyuan earns USD.

The gap is too big.

If she can't become a capitalist, she probably won't be able to realize her plan to support her artist brother in this lifetime.

……

1 month 26 number.

— [Real Steel's box office in China surpasses 10 billion yuan!]

This is the front page headline of the entertainment section this morning.

It's all over the internet!
10 billion!

Besides Avatar, Real Steel became the second most popular film in history!

And among domestically produced films, it is the first in history!

That evening, Starlight Brilliant hosted a grand celebration banquet for Lu Zhiyuan at the Summer Palace Aman Hotel.

"Xiao Lu, you're amazing! The first domestic film to break 1 billion yuan at the box office!"

Chen Kaige arrived very early.

Every time Lu Zhiyuan held a celebration banquet, he was usually the first to arrive. He never treated himself as an outsider and even helped Lu Zhiyuan greet the guests.

If some senior figures whom Lu Zhiyuan wasn't very familiar with came, he would help introduce them.

"Director Chen, if you were to make a science fiction movie, I think you could do it too."

Lu Zhiyuan smiled and offered a compliment.

He knew that with the box office explosion of his two consecutive science fiction films, some domestic directors would also try to make science fiction films.

Even if those directors don't want to make the film, some film companies will try to find directors who are willing to make the film to test the waters.

Before Lu Zhiyuan, no one in the domestic science fiction film industry had taken this path.

Most of them ended up in a terrible state.

Liu Zhenwei's "Metallic Attraction: Kung Fu Cyborg" serves as a cautionary tale; with an investment of 100 million yuan, it only grossed 40 million yuan at the box office, resulting in a huge loss!

They benchmarked their film against "Transformers," initially expecting it to gross 2 million yuan and likely break even.

The results of it?
That was a disaster!
Often, facts are beyond human control.

No means no, especially in science fiction movies.

It requires a large investment and carries significant risks, but the box office return may not necessarily be as high as that of making comedies or youth films.

However, with Lu Zhiyuan's continued success, it seems to be telling the market that it's not that science fiction films are bad, but that the directors they've hired are bad!

"I'm still aware of my limitations. I'll stay away from science fiction movies."

Chen Kaige knew that Lu Zhiyuan was praising him, and he was very happy, but he did not lose himself.

"By the way, Xiao Lu, I heard that your assistant, that girl named Su Lun, you let her go out and make her own movie? Doesn't that mean you've lost a helper?"

Chen Kaige brought up this matter intentionally or unintentionally.

Lu Zhiyuan wasn't stupid; he quickly understood: "Director Chen, if you have any relevant talent around you, please recommend them to me. I'm eager to find capable people!"

"I knew it, I couldn't hide it from you."

Chen Kaige smiled, waved to the back, and called out, "Xiao Guo, come here."

"Hey, here we come."

Soon after, a young man with a square face and a small mustache ran over. He looked quite energetic.

"Brother Yuan, hello. My name is Guo Fan, you can just call me Xiao Guo."

Guo Fan had just graduated from the Management Department of Beijing Film Academy. On the recommendation of his master's supervisor, he got in touch with Chen Kaige.

After chatting with Guo Fan for a few minutes, Chen Kaige realized that the kid was a talented individual.

I graduated with a law degree, went into graphic design, and after finishing graphic design, I started drawing comics.

After drawing comics for a while, I was able to get into the Beijing Film Academy for graduate studies.

A true prodigy!

Moreover, he recently collaborated with friends on the production of the movie "The Adventures of Li Xianji," which involves elements such as time travel and game discs.

At first glance, it seems to align closely with Lu Zhiyuan's ideas.

So today, Chen Kaige brought Guo Fan over to meet Lu Zhiyuan.

If Guo Fan can catch Lu Zhiyuan's eye, that would be his good fortune.

"Hello."

Lu Zhiyuan calmly extended his hand and shook hands with Guo Fan.

After transmigrating, he had already met countless celebrities and remained very calm.

Not to mention someone of Guo Fan's caliber, this year he even surpassed Nolan's "Inception".

On the contrary, Guo Fan, upon seeing Lu Zhiyuan, acted like a little fan and was extremely excited.

He showered him with heartfelt praise: "Brother Yuan, I admire you so much. The scene of the AI ​​sacrifice ritual in 'Upgrade' was absolutely breathtaking. It's a masterpiece!"

"Have a vision."

Lu Zhiyuan chuckled: "I feel like I only filmed two scenes for that movie. One is this scene, and then all the other shots combined count as one scene!"

Guo Fan was secretly delighted.

Isn't it said that great directors are aloof, arrogant, and disdainful of chatting with ordinary people?
I've won the lottery!
The famous director seems to like me quite a bit.

So, Guo Fan went on to lavish praise on Lu Zhiyuan.

But soon, he realized that a hint of impatience flashed across Lu Zhiyuan's face.

Oops.

I went too far in flattering him!

Serving a big director is really difficult.

The other person's temper is so unpredictable, sometimes hot, sometimes cold, it's really hard to understand.

Lu Zhiyuan felt that he had gained some initial understanding of Guo Fan, especially since Guo Fan was someone brought by Chen Kaige.

Secondly, he does need an assistant.

So, Lu Zhiyuan stopped beating around the bush with Guo Fan and said directly, "Xiao Guo, there's a lot going on with this new project, Pacific Rim. The workload is probably more than twice that of Real Steel."

"I can't handle everything by myself. I need an assistant director to help me out. Would you like to come work with me?"

This……

It's like a pie fell from the sky!

"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and thank Brother Yuan!"

Seeing Guo Fan's helpless expression, Chen Kaige was speechless and patted him on the shoulder.

Guo Fan then realized what was happening and excitedly grabbed Lu Zhiyuan's hand: "Brother Yuan, when do we start work? I'll be waiting for your call."

"No rush, let's talk about it after the New Year."

After exchanging a few words, Lu Zhiyuan called Xin Yukun over: "Brother Kun, this is a new colleague. Please introduce him to the other guys in the company."

"No problem, I'll take care of it."

Xin Yukun looked Guo Fan up and down. He wasn't as handsome as me, but he seemed like a smart man. I wondered if he was in good health.
Don't give me another crispy one.

I can't take care of it all by myself.

"Director Chen, Tian Tian is calling me. Excuse me for a moment."

After chatting with Chen Kaige for a few minutes, Lu Zhiyuan made an excuse to leave.

As soon as he left, the others surrounded Chen Kaige, especially Fan Bingbing and Ge You.

"Director Chen, I heard you from far away. You have such great influence! A newcomer, just one word and you've got him in as Director Lu's assistant!"

Ge You gave Chen Kaige two thumbs up.

Now that's what you call impressive!
Big guys are big guys.

Although his own movies aren't doing so well at the box office, his status in the industry is still awesome.

"Saving face is mutual. Do you think everyone is like a little cannon? Shouting at everyone they meet to show how loud they are?"

Chen Kaige was also a little unhappy with Feng Xiaogang.

That little buck-toothed guy, he used to secretly step on him.

Lu Zhiyuan's box office performance is so impressive, and he has always been very self-respecting, never saying that his box office is bad.

You think you're so capable? What a load of rubbish!

"Director Chen, what about my matter..."

Fan Bingbing looked at Chen Kaige with anticipation.

With a single sentence, Chen Kaige placed a newcomer next to Lu Zhiyuan as an assistant director.

The assistant director is an absolute right-hand man, a close confidant; only Xin Yukun had received such treatment before.

"Let's talk about your matter another time."

Chen Kaige was very happy that Lu Zhiyuan gave him face, but he also had to be sensible.

We've already introduced one person today; if we introduce another, it'll mean we don't know the rules.

It’s too late.

"Okay, thank you, Director Chen."

Can Fan Bingbing really say that?

All that careful dressing up and attention she had drawn to all the men in the room was for naught, except for Lu Zhiyuan.

I'll fire the makeup artist as soon as I get back!
No use at all.

……

After leaving Chen Kaige and chatting with Jing Tian for a few minutes, Lu Zhiyuan was pulled away by others.

In other situations, he consistently ignores people.

But at such a celebration banquet, everyone was there to congratulate him, so he couldn't show a sour face and could only exchange a few perfunctory words with them.

As his status rose, everyone around him fawned over him.

This kind of environment can really make people feel arrogant!
Fortunately, Lu Zhiyuan is a person who has transcended vulgar tastes... All the praise these people give him is not as pleasant as a system notification sound.

the other side.

Xin Yukun led Guo Fan around, and before long, they arrived in front of Miss Jing Tian.

Miss Jing Tian was chatting with Dilraba when she saw the unfamiliar Guo Fan and asked in confusion, "Brother Kun, this guy looks unfamiliar. Aren't you going to introduce him?"

"Xiao Guo, call her Sister Tian Tian."

Xin Yukun nudged Guo Fan with his hand.

"Sister Tiantian."

Guo Fan probably knew that Jing Tian was Lu Zhiyuan's girlfriend, so he was very respectful at the moment, keeping his head down and not daring to look at Jing Tian.

"Young man, you're quite shy."

Jing Tian gave a few condescending comments, then said in a boss's tone, "Work hard with our A Yuan. In a couple of days, the company will have a lucky draw at the annual meeting. Come join us and try to win a big prize."

"Thank you, Sister Tian Tian."

Although Jing Tian didn't say what the grand prize was this year, Guo Fan could tell that this family was definitely very wealthy.

But yes!

With $5 million at the box office and various DVD rights, the total profit of "Upgrade" is estimated to be over $2 million.

With "Real Steel" nearing $10 billion at the box office, in addition to the DVD rights, there are also various merchandise rights, so the profits will definitely exceed $5 million!
Although these profits will ultimately be shared with Universal Pictures, Starlight Pictures' guaranteed profit will not be less than 15 billion RMB.

Two movies made Starlight Entertainment a fortune!
Huayi Brothers had a revenue of 10 billion yuan and a profit of 1.5 million yuan in 2010... Compared to Starlight Entertainment, it's simply not worth looking at.

Who is responsible for the dazzling starlight?

Lu Zhiyuan!
What is a walking money printing machine?

This is!
