Indulge in Life in America

"No. 302 will not increase the price? The price is too high. If it doesn't work, we will give up?"

Emma Watson was not so happy at this time when he took the rose garden. In her opinion, the Qianlong jade seal on the stage was really worthless. The main reason may be that he did not understand the emperor’s feudal dynasty. authority.

　　 Yang Cheng had no patience to explain to her how precious this thing was. She just shook her head and comforted her confidently, “Don’t worry, this is the last offer. There should be no problem.”

　　 On the other side, the professional buyer of No. 302, who was still confident in his face, changed his face drastically when an unknown number was sent on his mobile phone. He glanced around with vigilant gaze, causing the people around him to be inexplicable.

　　He didn't continue to raise the placards, and the auctioneer on the stage couldn't manage so much. Isn't he a little impatient without seeing the big figures in the front row?

　　 Quickly follow the process, "11.1 million once, this Fang Yuxi is a rare treasure, 11.1 million second time~"

　　 The ending sound was prolonged until it was confirmed that no one in the audience would raise placards, and then the hammer fell heavily, "The deal~ Congratulations, Mr. Yang, for successfully taking the finale tonight."

　　 With thunderous applause, Yang Cheng stood up, smiled and waved, and followed the staff to the backstage to complete the handover procedures. As for the number 302, he wouldn't waste his brain cells thinking too much.

Only after he signed it, he suddenly remembered that tonight’s goal seemed to be missing. He asked a Sotheby’s manager next to him in confusion, “I remember that there is an equity in a water company close to Wales on your auction list. Why not? Up shot?"

　　 The manager was taken aback for a moment, and then explained embarrassingly, "I'm very sorry, Mr. Yang, because the owner temporarily decided to cancel the auction before the auction started, and even the liquidated damages were generously paid. Naturally, we don't want to force it."

　　 Yang Cheng frowned, "Temporarily cancelled?"

　　 He was a little depressed. Although he took down the main goal tonight, he didn't taste the two side dishes, especially the equity of this water company. He still cared a lot.

However, he also knew that there was no useful information from Sotheby’s. After Sotheby’s confirmed the authenticity and legality of the cheque, he discussed with Yang Cheng, "Mr. Yang, I don’t know if you are going to pick up the goods on site." Or are we responsible for the transportation?"

　　 "You are responsible for the transportation to my manor. After all, you are professional." Yang Cheng will not take it with him leisurely. No matter how much it is tens of millions of pounds, there will never be a shortage of bad guys in this world.

　　 Sotheby’s has a mature system and rich experience in security and transportation. Besides, the whole process will not be completed until the lot is delivered to Yang Cheng. If an accident occurs during transportation, Yang Cheng has the right to request Sotheby’s to refund the payment.

　　 But if he picks up the goods and leaves now, once he is robbed on the road, Sotheby’s will not take the corresponding responsibility. Can Yang Cheng make mistakes in such small details?

　　 The president of Sotheby's also wanted to invite Yang Cheng to the office for coffee, but he declined it. What's the point of having coffee with a big man?

　　 After experiencing a supreme gift-giving service, they drove away with Emma. Under Yang Cheng's strong invitation, Emma finally nodded and agreed to return to the manor together.

　　 On the highway, the noise was isolated from the car windows, and there was no need to increase the volume when speaking. Emma asked casually, "You just asked the manager about the water company. Do you want to invest?"

　　 Emma is a bit business-minded. Yang Cheng doesn't mind talking to her. It's better to go to Chuang as soon as you meet.

Turning to the side and said, "The British Isles has dense rainfall, abundant water resources, and sufficient population. Investing in water companies is a profitable business. The profit level may not be as terrifying as Internet companies, but it wins in stability, even in financial Crisis is also profitable. After all, people cannot live without water."

　　 Emma's big eyes are very exciting, "Isn't that a trade that makes a profit without losing it?"

Yang Cheng was a little bit dumbfounded, and suddenly regretted discussing investment issues with an actress who can act and lack basic knowledge of life, "Where is there a real profitable business in this world? If I was the first to rush to invest, the above It's just a relative statement.

　　You live in the United Kingdom all year round, so you should be aware that the United Kingdom belongs to a temperate maritime climate. The warm and humid water vapor over the Atlantic Ocean brings abundant rainwater to this country, but abundant rainwater also has the trouble of abundant rainwater.

　　 Especially in recent years, under the influence of global climate change, the United Kingdom has been continuously affected by severe weather and frequent floods. This has brought new problems for the United Kingdom to ensure the safety of drinking water and avoid pollution of drinking water caused by floods as much as possible. "

　　 Emma stared wide-eyed, as if seeing a brand new world, "In other words, the water company is very likely to go bankrupt due to floods or water pollution suffering huge losses?"

Yang Cheng shrugged, "In short, it is like this. The small water company not far from Wales I asked just now caused the reservoir to burst because of the flood last year. Although it did not cause casualties, They are unable to renovate the new reservoir and can only declare bankruptcy, and the owner of the company or the local ZF will auction and reorganize it."

　　 "So, why did the other party suddenly cancel the auction?" Emma is like a child who is curious about the world, full of why.

　　 Yang Cheng spread out his hands, "I don't know, maybe they have found a solution to their dilemma? For example, get financing from an investment bank? This is not good."

　　 Emma kicked off her high heels, crossed her legs on the seat, and put her cheek in one hand, "I knew I would buy some water company stocks. No matter what, I would make more money than buying conservative wealth management funds."

"You little money fan, don't worry about using tens of millions of dollars in salary?" Yang Cheng is really powerless to complain. Emma's ability to make money is not inferior to small and medium enterprises in the United States, but then again, who can How much spare money?

　　 You didn't see Yang Cheng's billion-dollar net worth, and he was arguing about lack of money every day.

Emma Watson snorted, "Who said I paid tens of millions of dollars? I recently took a film, and the salary was only 4.5 million dollars. It was not a one-time payment, or for Tom Hanks’s sake, I I won't pick it up at all."

　　 "Huh? You took the film again? Isn't it about to join the Disney crew soon?" Yang Cheng heard Emma said before that she took the project of Disney's "Beauty and the Beast".

Emma spread out her hands like Yang Cheng, "The crew is called "Circle". Originally, the schedule between that film and "Beauty and the Beast" is heavy, so I pushed it. Who knows the new one on "Circle" The heroine was also unable to act for other reasons, so she found me again and delayed the shooting time. She was very sincere. I liked the book so I just took it together. Anyway, for a low-cost movie, the shooting time will not Too long."

　　 Yang Cheng whispered the name of "Circle" in his mind, without any impression at all. Obviously, it was not a big hit film, and it was not even up to the level of awards, so it could be certified as a bad film.

However, the film "Beauty and the Beast" made Disney a big profit, and even won a few small awards at the Oscars. Unfortunately, the film born out of fairy tales is Disney’s masterpiece. With Disney’s dominance, It's unrealistic for Yang Cheng to want a slice of the pie.

　　 regretfully said, "Disney didn't give you the opportunity to join the team?"

From Yang Cheng’s perspective, Emma’s iconic mouth is raised, her perfect profile is displayed, and she smiles slyly, "No, but I signed a gambling agreement with them. If the film’s box office exceeds "Sleeping Mantra" , I can get at least 15 million U.S. dollars and up to 17 million U.S. dollars in remuneration. On the contrary, I can only get 3 million U.S. dollars in advance."

　　 Yang Cheng was surprised by Emma's courage, and at the same time he was happy for Emma, ​​because the box office of "Beauty and the Beast" exceeded that of "Maleficent" by too much, and Emma won the gambling agreement.

"By the way, the crew of "Circle" seems to lack some investment. How about I introduce the producer to you?" Emma suddenly remembered that when she communicated with Tom Hanks a while ago, the other party looked sad and almost forgot. Isn’t there a big rich man by his side who can solve the problem~www.wuxiaspot.com~Who knows that Yang Cheng’s head is shaking like a rattle, obviously a pit, so he won’t jump in, "Forget it, the new era The film industry has recently launched a lot of big projects. If it's just a release, it's okay to say that the investment is fine."

Indeed, even if the box office is miserable, with the addition of Tom Hanks and Emma Watson, the problem of cost recovery is not big. It is a profit for the issuer, but it is more difficult to make money from investment. Up.

　　 Emma doesn’t matter, she also asked on the spur of the moment, “Wait for me to tell Tom, if New Era Pictures can intervene in the release, they will be very happy.”

New Era Pictures has received all the resources of Lionsgate. Of course, the best quality is its distribution ability. It was able to issue the six major monoclonal antibodies through continuous mergers and acquisitions. Now, with the help of New Era Media, several of them It can even reach the level of crushing. From the perspective of distribution capability alone, Hollywood, except Disney, Yang Cheng can say without exaggeration: all the people here are rubbish.

　　 is so domineering, especially with the intervention of the CW TV network, which completely complements the previous shortcomings of Lionsgate’s local distribution in North America, which is why Emma said that just now.

It’s true that Tom Hanks is the actor. He has also proven his mAb movie and even his ability to make movies several times in the past. But this does not mean that he can succeed every time. Failure is definitely more than success. Therefore, every time The release stage after the production of the film is when the producer is the most troubled. After all, the six major doors are not so easy to enter.

　　 And if there is Emma’s matchmaking and a ride in the new era of film industry, would Tom Hanks be unhappy?
