The Prodigal Son: I Can Foresee the Future

Phoenix Entertainment.

Liu Wenbin's office.

While making tea for Lin Ming, he said: "Did you go upstairs just now?"

"Yes, I went to my eldest brother's place and asked him something." Lin Ming nodded.

"It just so happens that I also want to tell you something. You came at the right time."

Liu Wenbin sat on the sofa.

Then he continued: "The movie "Cat God" has been delayed for one month in China and one month abroad."

"In fact, according to the performance of Cat God, it can be delayed for another half a month in China, but that will have an impact on the statistics of the box office record list, so I want to ask you what you plan to do."

Lin Ming thought for a while: "Have you asked Jin Xingxian?"

"Of course I have asked, but Director Jin means that you have the final say." Liu Wenbin said.

Lin Ming pursed his lips.

The so-called 'box office record list' is actually the judgment of a director in the film and television industry.

The final box office of the movie directly determines the director's influence and appeal.

In China, those movies with high box office will basically have a chance to delay the release.

However, movies like "The Legend of Cat God", which directly set major box office records and are rare, will get a second chance to delay the release.

The first time is one month, and the second time is half a month.

For capital, delaying the release is naturally a good thing, after all, it can get higher box office and make more money.

But for directors, they generally do not allow this to happen.

After all, can a movie that has been released for one month be comparable to a movie that has been released for two months in terms of box office?

What directors want is fairness!

Only in this way can their true talent and influence be reflected.

But compared with capital, no matter how powerful a director is, he has no say, and everything is decided by capital.

Jin Xingxian definitely does not want to delay the release again.

But he is afraid of affecting Lin Ming's direct interests, so even if he has ideas in his mind, he dare not say them at all.

"That guy is quite interesting."

Lin Ming smiled: "What is the total box office of Cat God now, both at home and abroad?"

"It has exceeded 10 billion in China, reaching 10.3 billion."

Liu Wenbin said: "The total box office abroad is about 400 million US dollars, which is less than 3 billion in RMB. If it is added up, it is about 13.1 billion."

"13.1 billion..." Lin Ming murmured.

For a movie, what a terrible number!

And what an amazing record?

Although these were predicted long ago.

But after Lin Ming's own operation, the box office increased again, reaching the incredible level now.

There is no doubt.

This number will become a mountain in China's box office!

Except for Jin Xingxian, it will be difficult for other movies to surpass it for a long time in the future!

Even if Cat God was delayed for a month, the box office of Cat God was only 1 billion more in this month.

Put aside the 1 billion, there are still 12 billion!

Looking at all the box office of Chinese movies now, not even one can reach half of the Cat God's!

The birth of Cat God's not only brought great benefits to Phoenix Entertainment, but also created a new milestone for China's film and television industry, and opened up the category of "Chinese cultural heritage" movies, which have sprung up like mushrooms after rain!

What a pity.

Maybe someone knows more about this than Jin Xingxian, and maybe someone works harder than Jin Xingxian.

But the words "Jin Xingxian" will eventually become an epoch-making figure.

He became the founder of a certain type, and also became an insurmountable god in this type!

"That's it!"

Lin Ming drank a sip of tea: "The delayed month has almost exhausted the potential of Cat God's, and further delaying the release will not have much effect. At most, it can only harvest a box office of 100 million or 200 million, which is not worth it."

Liu Wenbin's eyes twitched fiercely.

A box office of 100 million or 200 million, at most?

These two words are really damn good!

For a rich man like Lin Ming, does he not care about 100 million or 200 million?

Of course.

Liu Wenbin also understood that the reason why Lin Ming did this was to help Jin Xingxian.

The money that should be earned has been earned.

Next, use the profit from canceling the delay of half a month to exchange for Jin Xingxian's reputation in the film and television industry!

"I want to tell you something."

Lin Ming suddenly said: "Didn't the second sister-in-law want to come to Landao City to find a job? I have talked to my third brother and eldest brother about contracting the canteen. What they mean is that I have to call you before this matter can be settled?"

Liu Wenbin was embarrassedHe smiled awkwardly and said nothing.

"I said, Mr. Liu, you really don't treat me as your brother, right?"

Lin Ming said with a straight face: "What's the big deal? Do I have to ask for it to count? Originally, several companies here don't have canteens. If my second sister-in-law can contract it, it will be considered a help to me. What are you two arguing about?"

Liu Wenbin touched his nose: "Our relationship is here. If you let your second sister-in-law open a canteen, once others know about it, they will gossip about you behind your back!"

"Bullshit!"

Lin Ming snorted: "It's my company. I can find whoever I want to contract it. Who else can control me? Why do you think about those useless things every day? It's better to think about it. How to help the second sister-in-law to build the canteen! "

"Don't worry about this, you know your second sister-in-law, she is very simple!"

Liu Wenbin immediately said: "If she really contracts the canteen, at least the ingredients must be fresh and tasty, and she will definitely find a few good chefs. Anyway, she will never embarrass you!"

"Then what are you still hesitating about?"

Lin Ming waved his hand: "Okay, okay, this matter is settled. You can ask the administrative department to help you with all the documents and materials needed for contracting the canteen. The second sister-in-law only needs to provide an ID card. "

"Okay!" Liu Wenbin nodded deeply.

He didn't say anything to thank him, otherwise Lin Ming would scold him again.

"There's one more thing."

Lin Ming tapped the table: "Is Liu Ruoxi in the company?"

"Liu Ruoxi?"

Liu Wenbin was stunned: "No? She has a lot of announcements recently, and seems to be very busy. She should have returned to Landao City yesterday, and went out again today."

"She is very busy, but she is not necessarily just busy with work, right?"

Lin Ming narrowed his eyes: "She seems to have a boyfriend, do you know about this?"

Liu Wenbin frowned: "I don't know!"

Phoenix Entertainment has now been divided into multiple sectors, such as Phoenix Media, Phoenix Pictures, Phoenix Music, etc.

And now Liu Wenbin is the highest director of Phoenix Music, comparable to the general manager.

Yu Jie is also focusing on Phoenix Media. His position is the same as Liu Wenbin. As long as he has enough experience, he will be promoted to president in the future.

As a singer under Phoenix Entertainment, Liu Ruoxi is naturally under the jurisdiction of Liu Wenbin.
