Chapter 160: Hundreds of Millions of Dollars in Dividends
These young people in the cultural circle of the capital have a wide range of friends and have many friends all over the country. These people are all writers who have become famous in recent years and are the backbone of the national cultural circle.
With their fate, the battle in the newspapers was immediately decided.
Those who acted like monsters immediately stopped when they saw such a huge voice of justice.
Liu Hongmin returned to a peaceful life again. Every day he either went shopping with Ma Weidu or followed Ge Chaoguang and others to study the ancient books they got from Mr. Wang.
Ma Weidu has completed the writing of "Bao Qingtian 8" and earned hundreds of thousands. With this money, he also bought a courtyard house near Liu Hongmin's home. Not only that, he also imitated Liu Hongmin and started collecting. However, he was more interested in calligraphy, painting, porcelain, and furniture.
Liu Hongmin advised him to keep some money, otherwise even if the "Bao Qingtian" series makes money, it will not be able to withstand his lavish spending.
Ma Weidu thought so too, so he started writing a book about collecting. Not to mention, there is a certain market and a fixed audience in major cities across the country.
As people’s lives become more and more prosperous, more and more people have entered the collection industry.
Liu Hongmin went to Xiangjiang again and counted the income of Transformers Company in 1984 through the Transformers Xiangjiang Office.
Since the founding of Transformers, a total of 320 million Transformers have been sold, with total sales reaching $15 billion. The toy factory received US$3 billion, but the cost was less than US$1 billion. Most of this money was distributed to Pengcheng Toy Factory. Pengcheng took over more than 2 billion US dollars in foreign exchange and was extremely happy.
Pengcheng Toy Factory has a profit of 6 billion yuan, and after tax, it still has more than 4 billion yuan. Let alone building a family community, it can even build a small commercial district. So Liu Hongmin immediately went to Pengcheng to re-recruit people and expand the scale of the family community to include employees of Random House Printing Factory. However, Random House printing staff had to spend their own money to buy it, which happened to make a fortune.
Then build a commercial plaza directly next to the family community. With the high wages of the employees of the two factories, this commercial plaza can be fully supported. If there were a few more foreign-owned factories nearby, this commercial plaza might become the largest commercial center in the surrounding area, and a business might develop.
The Transformers Company received $6 billion, and after taxes, there was more than $4 billion.
The comic also sold 30 million copies, with sales reaching $150 million. The animation also sold for 40 to 50 million U.S. dollars, totaling 200 million U.S. dollars. After excluding the share and taxes given to Liu Hongmin, Transformers Company can get less than 100 million US dollars.
Liu Hongmin discussed with Random House and Hasbro and decided to allocate US$2 billion to dividends. Liu Hongmin can get 1.2 billion US dollars, Random House can get 300 million US dollars, and Hasbro can get 500 million US dollars.
The dividend of US$1.2 billion made both giants look at it with envy. However, they are very satisfied with the dividends of US$300-500 million. After all, they just provided a channel and really didn't do much.
After receiving a dividend of US$1.2 billion, he directly converted it into Japanese yen and invested it in his Japanese yen account.
In order to harvest the Japanese, the United States directly opened the exchange channel for US dollars and yen. At the current exchange rate, 1 U.S. dollar can be exchanged for 265 yen, and 1.2 billion U.S. dollars is converted into 318 billion yen. Including Liu Hongmin's previous savings, there is a total of 350 billion yen.
Liu Hongmin found an investment agency in Xiangjiang and directly used Japanese yen to invest in the Japanese stock market. He didn't understand these things. He only knew that after the Plaza Accord was signed, the Japanese stock market and real estate market grew wildly, and they didn't stop until the economic bubble burst in 1990. The Japanese yen even appreciated to the point of 1995, when it was about 7 or 80 yen per US dollar.
Liu Hongmin didn't want to invest in the property market, so he could only invest in the stock market.
Liu Hongmin targeted several fields, including the entertainment industry, automobile industry and foreign trade, and handed the password to Zou Shifang, asking him to keep an eye on the operators of the intermediary company. 350 billion yen is not a small amount of money, and it will take a long time to buy stocks quietly. After the explanation, Liu Hongmin transferred the tens of millions of dollars earned from animation production to the account in Beijing. This money can allow Beijing Film Studio to shoot more than ten feature-length animations.
Of course, Liu Hongmin also wants to keep some for himself to develop comics. Sun Lu and the others have been working hard for more than half a year, and it's time to pay some bonuses.
He couldn't go back for the time being, so he left the matter to Ma Weidu.
Li Lizhen finally waited for Liu Hongmin to finish her work, and immediately took Liu Hongmin to the villa. A breakup was better than a wedding. Liu Hongmin had been away for several months, and she had long been unbearably lonely. Now that Liu Hongmin is back, of course she wants to satisfy her craving.
At this point, Li Lizhen is much smarter than Lan Jieying. Li Lizhen placed her position very low, so even if Liu Hongmin ignored her, she would not complain.
Liu Hongmin naturally knew this, so he also brought a gift to Li Lizhen this time, a gold bracelet inlaid with seven treasures.
Although it looks a bit tacky, Li Lizhen likes it very much. I keep it on my hand and don't want to take it off even when I'm in bed. Fortunately, this thing is very strong, so as long as it doesn't get bumped, it will basically be fine.
I have to say that if a person is beautiful, everything he wears will look good. Such a tacky jewelry still looks good on her.
The two hung out in the villa for two days, and Liu Hongmin couldn't stand it anymore, so he took her to the company.
"Chinatown Detective 3" has been completed in post-production. Liu Hongmin watched it again and found that there were no problems.
“Can it be put on the Spring Festival schedule?”
“Of course!” Xu Xiaoming said with a smile: “‘Detective’ has won the box office championship for two consecutive years, so we should be the first to choose the schedule for the whole year. ."
Liu Hongmin also smiled, "Don't other film companies have any objections?"
"They have to endure it if they have any objections!"
Xu Xiaoming said this. Since our troops stationed in Xiangjiang, all the forces in Xiangjiang who dared to make plans for Tomorrow Film Company have given up their thoughts.
"Then it will be released during the Spring Festival." Liu Hongmin thought for a while and then said to Wang Yaowei: "Reveal our scheduled schedule and try to persuade other movies to leave. During the Spring Festival, we have "Detective" and "The Last of Us" "The best partner", I am afraid it will be difficult to accommodate the third high-grossing movie."
Wang Yaowei immediately understood, "Boss, you are still kind."
The three of them looked at each other and smiled. , other good movies have withdrawn, so that "Detective 3" can achieve higher box office.
