Chapter 401 Making a Nest
"Actually, I also have a yacht, which is located in Nansha Bay, Guangzhou. It was a birthday gift from my brother when I was 14 years old. But I used to be a homebody and seldom went out. If you have any clients to entertain, you can use it. ”
"Okay."
"You know, I think my brother is upset. He has been under a lot of pressure recently. His whole body is like a compressed biscuit, wooden and hard."
"This metaphor is quite wonderful."
"So, I'm wondering when he will be able to relax a little. During this period, I went to Jin Province with people from Parallel Chongcai to collect materials and scan them, and saw a lot of ancient buildings and statues. They were really beautiful.
I have a whole room full of figurines, but they don’t feel as good as one-tenth of those statues. I want to take my brother to see it and let him relax.
I also saw a lot of intangible cultural heritage skills in other places, some of which I heard for the first time, which made me want to learn them. ”
"If you are interested, it is indeed possible."
On the way back, Hu Ningwei kept chattering and sharing her thoughts and knowledge with Xu Xiyu.
In the process of sharing, there was no connection between her topics. Sometimes the last topic was this and then immediately jumped to another topic.
Little girls seem to be like this. She just enjoys the time with Xu Xiyu and can say anything.
Of course, you can also say nothing. Just like what was sung in the lyrics of the last song "Starlight Amusement Park", "It's also beautiful to take a quiet walk without chatting."
It's a pity that such "beauty" ended after arriving in the capital.
After Hu Ningwei was sent home by Xu Xiyu, she found that her grandfather still had not returned.
After repeated inquiries, she finally learned the news that her grandfather had been admitted to the hospital.
So, she hurried to the hospital.
Xu Xiyu didn't know about this. He sent Hu Ningwei home and agreed to play with her in two days before going straight back to the company.
Because Cheng Guangzu was waiting for him in Huaqing.
At this time, in the office of Chairman Huaqing.
Xu Xiyu stood by the window and looked at the night scene outside. Looking at his back, Cheng Guangzu was sitting on pins and needles on the sofa.
After hesitating for a while, he said with an embarrassed look: "Mr. Xu, the matter is clear. In fact, Du Yuxiong still loves us, and he is Yu Xingde, the second shareholder of their company..."
"Brother Zu." Before he could finish his words, Xu Xiyu interrupted directly, "If I film "Infernal Affairs 2" in the future, I will tell you that my heart goes to Jiahe, but Mr. Qiao does not agree to continue to cooperate with you. Is this okay? ”
"..." As soon as these words came out, Cheng Guangzu was choked up. He actually knew how outrageous what he just said was, but before the matter was resolved, he had to find an excuse first.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Xu Xiyu asked again: "Did Du Yuxiong say when he would be able to deal with Yu Xingde?"
"One month." Cheng Guangzu said, but after saying that, he felt that his IQ had been insulted.
As a result, he banged the table and said, "Mr. Xu, Du Yuxiong just treats us as fools. In a month, "The Richest Man in Xihong City" will succeed "Infernal Affairs" as a promotion." br>
Hearing this, Xu Xiyu finally felt a little more comfortable.
He really didn't want to see Cheng Guangzu follow Du Yuxiong's example and treat himself as a fool.
I saw him turning around, walking towards the sofa while waving his hands with a smile: "Don't get excited, sit down, sit down and chat."
Seeing this, Cheng Guangzu sat down with anger and said to Xu Xiyu: "Mr. Xu, to be honest, I almost got into a fight with him.
In any case, I introduced this person, and I take full responsibility. I will pay for all the losses he caused to you. ”
Cheng Guangzu still has a bit of Jianghu spirit in him.
When he said this, he looked like he was about to put incense on himself.
Xu Xiyu was naturally too lazy to pay attention to such bloody words. Regardless of Cheng Guangzu's nice words, if he really wants to take money from his pocket, 99% of the time he will fall out.
Brothers can fight over money.
Not to mention partners.
Instead of expecting him to compensate, it is better to drive him to do something for himself, so that he will probably devote 120% of his energy to "apologise".
Therefore, after Xu Xiyu sat down, while making tea, he changed the topic and said: "I have looked at the data of "Infernal Affairs", and the screening effect is very good. I estimate that the total box office should not be bad."< br>
"That's for sure, Mr. Xu, the mainland is still showing on-demand screenings, but Xiangjiang is already a full-scale screening. Do you know how much the box office is in Xiangjiang as of now?"
"How much?"
"77.9137 million Hong Kong dollars." Cheng Guangzu's eyes lit up when he mentioned this.
However, Xu Xiyu didn't have much reaction after hearing this number. After all, the box office of "Infernal Affairs" exceeded 100 million on the first day it was released.
Now more than a week has passed, and the box office of Hong Kong is less than 80 million Hong Kong dollars, which is really difficult to get him fired up.
Seeing Xu Xiyu's reaction, Cheng Guangzu immediately understood that he had not achieved this. So, he explained excitedly: "Mr. Xu, do you know the box office of the historical box office champion in Hong Kong in the past five years?"
"How much?" Xu Xiyu asked curiously.
"103.6 million Hong Kong dollars, "Planet 2" released the year before last."
"Oh, yes, yes, I remember. There seemed to be such news before, and the media asked us to reflect on our internal entertainment." Xu Xiyu remembered.
"Green Rain Planet 2" is a Hollywood science fiction film. The plot is a bit like "Avatar" and it is considered a well-known IP.
"Mr. Xu, you may not be paying attention. Ever since Hollywood blockbusters came to Hong Kong, our local films have never won at the box office. Let alone winning, we can't even touch other people's borders. They have 100 million, and ours is 50 or 60 million at most." .”
Hearing Cheng Guangzu talk about this matter in a complicated tone, Xu Xiyu suddenly remembered that there seemed to be a movie called "Vicious Lawyer" on earth, which broke this situation.
Then, he laughed and said: "So, you are saying that "Infernal Affairs" is going to break the box office record of "Planet 2" in Hong Kong?"
"Absolutely, it will be almost 80 million Hong Kong dollars in one week, and it will definitely be broken in a few days. Not only will it break the record, I think it will be a big break after the painting is finished!" Cheng Guangzu said this with confidence on his face.
Because he feels that this time "Infernal Affairs" has achieved both quality and publicity. If this doesn't lead to a great box office success, then there's nothing we can do about it.
After hearing this, Xu Xiyu thought for a while and said to Cheng Guangzu: "In this way, you can focus on promoting this matter. Also, isn't it also being screened in Taiwan? How is the box office?"
"The Taiwanese side is very ordinary. Du Yuxiong, the street boy, has no interest at all." Cheng Guangzu frowned.
After finishing speaking, Xu Xiyu did not wait for an answer. He continued to add: "At first, I thought it was because they did not participate in the investment in "Infernal Affairs", so they were not interested.
Now I can see that, let alone "Infernal Affairs", even if "The Richest Man in Xihong City" comes to the island, they will not be interested. They are now waiting for you and other investors to work hard to get the publicity right.
Then they can sit back and wait for the mainland’s box office share. I fucked his mother, is there such a good thing in the world? Apart from getting some money, you don’t do anything else but just want to make a big profit. Are you dreaming? ! ”
"It's okay, he will take notice soon." Xu Xiyu chuckled, "Mr. Cheng, there are a few things I really need your help with."
"You said."
An hour later, Cheng Guangzu left Xu Xiyu's office.
Three days later.
Two pieces of news were pushed to major platforms.
An article ["Infernal Affairs" local box office in Hong Kong reached 112 million, breaking the box office history of local movies in Hong Kong]
The other one is ["Infernal Affairs" was screened for 10 days, and the total box office in the mainland reached 882 million]
With the emergence of these two pieces of news, the entry #《无码的故事》Box Office# quickly became a hot search topic, and a lot of netizens got into heated discussions.
Of course, those who are more enthusiastic than netizens are their peers.
"Holy shit, as long as Xu Xiyu's project can be successfully launched, it will be a big hit, right? The box office during the screening period has reached this number. When it is released to the public, the box office must not go to 3 billion?"
"I guess so. I have watched this movie and it is of very high quality. There will definitely be a small explosion during the release period."
"Hey, isn't the cost of this movie high?"
"I heard that those movie stars all had friendly prices. I guess the cost is really not high."
"Even if it's not a friendly price, the movie plus publicity and distribution will cost more than 200 million. Damn it, this time I've made money again."
"What do you call this egg? Let's be respectful and call it a golden egg."
"What golden egg? If you show some respect, call it a golden rooster! There is only one golden egg, and everyone they lay is a golden egg."
"Okay, okay, arrange it for me, Mr. Xu, behind your back. I have recorded it all and will send it to Mr. Xu later. When he is happy, he might bring me into his new project."
< br>
"Little family?"
"You can't call me an old man, right?"
"Hey, is there any news about Huaqing's new project?"
"No, there are only two projects in this round. We must withdraw funds first before considering new ones."
"There is no need to withdraw money. Huaqing's investment in this round of projects is not very large. They have not spent all the money they made before."
"No need to guess, I just heard that Hua Qing really has new projects to develop, and "Infernal Affairs 2" is also among them."
"Real or false, where did the news come from?"
"There are many sources of information. Xu Xiyu's assistant revealed it, and Cheng Guangzu also mentioned it to someone."
