Gao Fei sat up abruptly from his chair.
"What was the income for July?"
Jin Qiqi, who had trotted into the office, took a deep breath and said, "After deducting taxes from the overseas box office revenue of 'Black and White Edge,' the total income exchanged into Longguo currency is 360 million.
The combined income from movies on domestic and international video websites, along with copyright revenue, is 150 million. If the movie isn't taken down internationally, it's expected to reach 200 million.
The total domestic and international income from music copyrights is 90 million. If it hadn't been taken down for half a month, it should have exceeded 100 million.
Domestic subscriptions and publishing of the novel, plus overseas income, totals 30 million. If sales weren't banned abroad, it could have reached 50 million."
Looking at the income statistics on the document, Jin Qiqi took a sip of water and continued, "The dividend from Gao Lan Cosmetics shares is the highest, at 840 million, followed by Cainiao Express, Mingyuan Milk Tea...
After rounding down, deducting non-liquid assets, and so on... Boss, your total income now is 1.6 billion Longguo currency."
1.6 billion!
Gao Fei's income reached a new peak.
This time, it directly broke through 1 billion, reaching a staggering 1.6 billion.
Only 400 million more, and he could break 2 billion in income.
In his two lifetimes combined, Gao Fei had never seen so much money.
Suddenly, he felt a sense of elation, as if he could fly into the sky.
Damn it, 1.6 billion! Why bother making movies or investing in any damn business?
If this money were deposited in the bank, the annual interest alone would be enough for an ordinary person to work their entire life.
With this much money, why bother striving! Wouldn't it be better to be a hidden billionaire!
The idea of giving up suddenly popped into Gao Fei's mind.
But it only lasted for two or three seconds before the thought of slacking off was extinguished.
Gao Fei calmed his excited mood and asked the system, "Dog system, with my 1.6 billion deposit now, aren't there any rewards?
For example, simulation points, mall discounts, or something like that!"
[For the host to receive rewards, the deposit must break 5 billion and reach the status of a wealthy gentleman!]
"Dog system, you're truly a dog!"
Jin Qiqi, standing by, couldn't help but worry as she saw Gao Fei smiling and frowning alternately.
Had the boss gone crazy after hearing about the 1.6 billion income?
After finishing his conversation with the system, Gao Fei noticed Jin Qiqi's bewildered gaze and coughed, asking, "Sister Jin, when will this 1.6 billion arrive?"
"After the statistics are finalized, it should arrive in about an hour!"
"Can I spend this money as I please, without worrying about the company's investment funds anymore?"
"Yes, don't worry. The investment funds have already been transferred to Feiteng Company's account. It's now your personal income, spend it as you wish!"
Hearing this, Gao Fei breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, "Tonight, invite all the project leaders and high-level executives of the investment company to the Kyoto Grand Hotel. I'll book the whole place!"
"Okay!"
Jin Qiqi smiled and nodded, immediately going to make the arrangements.
Forty minutes later.
Looking at the bank deposit notification on his phone, the ten-digit income, Gao Fei was dancing with joy alone in his office, incredibly excited. m..oΓg
After a brief moment of excitement, he opened the system mall again and glanced at the Flying Leap Special Effects Company and the 700 million purchase fund.
He smirked dismissively and bought it directly!
Ding!
Immediately after the purchase, his phone received a consumption notification.
At the same time, two acquisition contracts, one in Longguo language and one in a foreign language, appeared out of thin air before Gao Fei.
The documents bore the twelve characters: 'Flying Leap Special Effects Company Share Acquisition Contract.'
After reading the contracts, Gao Fei satisfyingly put them into the safe.
With this special effects company, he held 100% of the shares, giving him complete control of the company.
...
Beautiful Country.
It was 2 PM in Longguo, which was 10 PM in Beautiful Country.
Los Angeles City, Flying Leap Special Effects Company, conference room.
Eight men and women of different skin colors sat together, chatting and laughing.
The oldest man was around forty, and the youngest was no less than thirty.
The women averaged around thirty, with blonde hair, blue eyes, and tall figures—purebred Western beauties.
Among the eight people present, three were veterans of Flying Leap Special Effects Company, and the other five were core personnel promoted from within.
The four men and four women had already gone home after work, but a call from the top boss brought them back to the company.
"Is Smith suddenly asking us to come back for a meeting to discuss a new project?"
"Judging by Smith's temper, he usually doesn't arrange work at night. Perhaps there's something big to announce."
"Something big? Smith never holds meetings at night. He might be giving us a big surprise, like bonuses or a trip."
"I think it's possible, after all, we haven't been to Las Vegas for half a year!"
As the group was discussing, the conference room door was pushed open.
A white man in his forties, wearing a casual suit and exuding a refined demeanor, walked in.
"Mr. Smith!"
"Mr. Jonah!"
Upon seeing the newcomer, the eight men and women in the room stood up.
The white man who entered was the current president of Flying Leap Special Effects Company, Jonah Smith.
"Please sit,"
He waved his hand with a smile and sat in the main seat.
Once everyone was seated, Smith spoke directly, "An hour ago, the investors and investment company of Flying Leap Company sold all their shares.
The company has changed hands. A mysterious tycoon has purchased ninety percent of the company's shares."
"What?"
"Someone bought ninety percent of the company's shares?"
Upon hearing that the company had been bought by a mysterious tycoon, and he held ninety percent of the shares, the eight people present instantly lost their composure.
Shock, astonishment, and surprise were evident on everyone's faces.
They had initially thought that the impromptu meeting tonight was about a new project or company rewards.
Who would have thought that Smith would directly announce the company had been bought!
Sitting on the left, the older white man named Klin was a founder of the company.
He slowly regained his composure from the surprise and looked at his old friend Smith, asking, "Where is this mysterious tycoon from? Will our positions, shares, and so on change after he buys the company?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the other seven also turned their heads, looking anxiously.
Klin's question was exactly what was on their minds.
In Beautiful Country, once a company changes hands and is controlled by a new owner,
Generally, senior management and shareholders are forced out.
"I haven't been able to contact this mysterious tycoon yet."
Smith shook his head, looking at his colleagues and old friend with grim expressions, and reassured them, "But rest assured, there won't be major changes to your positions and shares.
Because our new boss comes from the land of etiquette, Longguo!"
Longguo!
Upon learning that the new wealthy boss was from Longguo, Klin and the others let out a sigh of relief.
There were many Longguo businessmen in Beautiful Country. Compared to domestic businessmen in Beautiful Country, Longguo bosses were at least more humane.
"If the new boss is from Longguo, will we have to move the company to Longguo?
Jonah, you need to understand one thing. Longguo has just globally launched its civilian navigation system, and the two countries are already in a standoff.
If we move to Longguo now, it might be extremely difficult to return in the future!"
Klin asked again, his questions sharp.
Everyone understood the recent international situation, and the other seven looked up with heavy expressions.
Just as Smith was at a loss, wondering how to answer the question,
The call he had been trying to make to the new boss was finally connected.
He signaled everyone to be quiet and simultaneously pressed the answer and speakerphone buttons.
"Hello? Who is this?"
A Longguo voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Hello, new boss. I am Jonah Smith, President of Flying Leap Special Effects Company."
Gao Fei, on the other side of the phone, was silent for two seconds, then quickly replied in fluent foreign language, "Hello, Mr. Jonah, my name is Hu Xu."
Just as Gao Fei was connecting with Jonah.
Longguo's Zero Degree Film and Television Company.
In one month, Zero Degree Film and Television, by utilizing high-quality online movies, directly captured half of the Longguo online drama market share.
The number of followers on the company's social media accounts had surged in a single month.
Currently, the number of followers for Zero Degree Film and Television had surpassed eighteen million.
Qiao Zheng nodded with satisfaction as he looked at the daily increasing data, then said to his assistant, "Notify Old Wu and the others, and have them prepare their proposals for cooperation with cinema chains for a meeting at four o'clock!"
