You Made Me a Superstar

  Chapter 536 Gambler

  Newark is the third largest city in Delaware and the seat of the University of Delaware. It is a quiet and peaceful city integrating entertainment, shopping and sightseeing.

  The main studio of "Spider-Man" is located in a deserted industrial park at the foot of the county town.

  When Zhou Yang first arrived, the place was messy and full of disgusting abandoned smells. At a glance, there were countless tents and homeless homeless people standing on the side of the road.

  After the filming of "Spider-Man", the messy and unpleasant smell of abandonment here has been slightly trimmed, and there are a lot fewer homeless people along the way.

  They were all pulled into the "Spider-Man" movie by Zhou Yang, either as extras, or as coolie employees in the crew.

certainly…

Some homeless men also caused headaches for Zhou Yang and others. Not only did they not work hard to earn some money after they came to the set, but they also played tricks and slacked off in various ways. When it was meal time, they all rushed towards the meal time in a dark way. , the crew was a little bit unhappy, so they started clamoring about human rights, about being bullied...

   "Some people become homeless because of bankruptcy, but some people are rotten people, enjoying government subsidies, living in a daze, and have never had any enterprising spirit..."

For these people, Li Qiang felt extremely disgusted, and once caused the crew to fall into a headache lawsuit. Fortunately, the police and legal personnel in Delaware have long been accustomed to these things, and let these people yell, After symbolically giving up and being a peacemaker for a while, the matter was calmed down.

  Although the incident has calmed down, for some reason, since April, the number of unemployed people in the entire state of Delaware has increased, and more and more people have become homeless.

  April 28th.

  Li Qiang finished part of the editing of "Spider-Man".

   After finishing his work, he returned to the office. He originally wanted to lie on the bed and take a good rest.

   But he got a call from a good friend in the American financial circle.

  When I first received the phone call, my face was full of disbelief, even absurd, and I felt that my friend was joking.

But after hearing that friend's very serious voice, Li Qiang's heart suddenly began to thump. The person's complexion suddenly changed!

  He didn't care about the exhaustion from a busy day, and ran towards Zhou Yang's office in a hurry.

   "President Zhou, something is going to happen to Mei!"

   "I don't know what is going to happen, but it must be a big event that will be recorded in history!"

   "I'm not sure what this crisis is all about, but definitely a lot of people are going to die!"

   "..."

  He rushed in panting. After seeing the calm Zhou Yang, he didn't sit down immediately, but said nervously.

"What's up?"

  Zhou Yang sat in front of the computer, touched his dry eyes, and then stood up.

   During this period of time, shooting "Spider-Man" day and night has almost exhausted Zhou Yang's energy.

  After seeing Li Qiang rushing in in a hurry, his heart couldn't help becoming tense.

   "Have you ever heard of the subprime mortgage crisis? It was the collapse of the bubble economy in Japan that year. Real estate thundered, the stock market plummeted, and countless people lost their jobs, went bankrupt, and jumped off buildings!"

   Li Qiang drank his saliva and began to desperately explain a series of nouns in front of Zhou Yang. Then, fearing that Zhou Yang might not understand, he began to explain various cases and stories in great detail.

  Zhou Yang listened carefully, and his resting heart began to relax slowly...

   Then he frowned slightly, recalling the original world in 2008 in his mind.

  In the original world in 2008, in addition to the Olympic Games in China, there were also snow disasters and earthquakes...

   And America…

   is the financial crisis.

  Financial crisis, Zhou Yang had watched a movie from Laomei before. In the movie, someone gave the protagonist a USB flash drive, and the information in the USB flash drive explained the financial crisis in detail.

   In this world, when Zhou Yang discovered that China had not experienced any power outages except for the heavy snowfall, Zhou Yang didn't take the so-called financial crisis to heart.

  But after seeing Li Qiang in a hurry, he suddenly realized that the old beauty in this world may really experience another financial crisis.

Although Li Qiang is the person in charge of the film crew, responsible for the overall control of the film and the film crew, but he has a very keen financial ability. After coming to Laomei, he has been dealing with a group of people in the financial circle during his breaks. Seeing Zhou Yang lost in deep thought at this moment, he was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.

"If there is a financial crisis, then the entertainment industry, especially the secondary consumer industry, is very likely to shrink greatly. Mr. Zhou, let's calm down and be rational, and stop spending money in theaters. This big gamble , the price is really too high, we can't afford to lose!"

  Li Qiang and Zhou Yang analyzed many things in detail, from the property market, stock market, industry prospects, to the entertainment industry, and then to movies.

   An eager, but full of chilling voice echoed throughout the meeting room, and his whole body was trembling desperately with excitement.

   "Bang bang"

"Come in…"

  A knock on the door interrupted Li Qiang's voice, and then the door opened, and Xu Mei also ran over with documents and data with an ugly face.

   "Mr. Zhou, I heard some gossip that I don't know if it's true or not. Some predators on Wall Street seem to be unable to hold on... A bomb is about to explode!"

   Xu Mei ran over in a hurry under Li Qiang's astonishment. Although she didn't know what the future portends, she felt like the building was about to collapse.

   Zhou Yang took the materials.

   After looking at it for a long time, I didn't feel nervous. I just closed my eyes and tried to review some trivial things.

   Try hard to recall the original world in 2008, and the Hollywood movies in the second half of 2008.

The U.S. financial turmoil that broke out in September affected not only the financial market, but even all walks of life in the United States. The entertainment industry, which belongs to the optional consumption, has naturally been greatly affected. From the outbreak of the financial crisis At the same time, the Hollywood film market turned sharply like the curve of the stock market. During this period, Hollywood blockbusters and major movies began to be postponed or postponed. The entire September was the lowest point of the year.

   And this world...

  Looks like the financial turmoil has arrived ahead of time!

   It is even very likely that it was around the release of "Spider-Man"...

   "Mr. Zhou! It's too late to rein in the precipice!"

   "Don't expand any more. Everyone is in a state of panic due to the financial crisis. The film industry is going to shrink. If it gets cold, we might go back to before liberation!"

  The office was silent for a long time.

   Li Qiang finally spoke again.

   Zhou Yang opened his eyes and listened silently, then signaled that he understood, and let the two of them leave the office.

  Li Qiang nodded, and left the office with Xu Mei.

   When it was evening, he heard a piece of news that made him almost die of anger.

   Not only did Zhou Yang not reduce the expansion of theaters, he even took advantage of this stall to invest in several more theaters.

   "This man is crazy!"

   "I've said it in such detail, why is he still like this!"

   "God, I really, I really don't know what to say!"

   "What a lunatic, I won't persuade you any more!"

   "..."

  ……………

  【Hua Xing has completely emptied his family! 】

  【Gambler! A real gambler is only a thin line away from bankruptcy! 】

  【Zhou Yang is completely crazy! 】

  【A sign of evil spirits, Zhou Yang has been cast by an Indian wizard since he finished filming "Spiderman"! 】

  【…】

  April is coming to an end.

   Come in May.

   Zhou Yang's news blasted the entire entertainment and financial circles.

  An insider broke the news that Xingyang Cinemas lost nearly 10 million yuan in the entire month of April...

   Someone took a photo at the gate of Xingyang Cinemas.

  The surrounding area was empty. Except for Chinese people and some Chinese students, no one went to the cinema to watch movies.

   But in this state...

  Star Ocean Cinemas has been expanding crazily.

  Bosses of Soku Video Platform, Miao Miao and Zhou Yang, spend almost every day in Xingyang Cinemas, ranging from a few million to hundreds of millions...

  Some people in the industry analyzed it, and all the money Huaxing earned in the past few years was invested in Xingyang Cinemas.

   "This man is crazy!"

   "It's just trying to die!"

   "This kind of operation is really like being possessed by an evil spirit. Not only will you die, but you will also drag others to die together?"

   "He's too bloated. After a few months, no, in another month or two, you'll see their jokes!"

   "..."

  Yanjing Airport.

  Feng Minrui followed Zhao Sicheng back from the United States. When he got off the plane, he saw the news about Xingyang Cinemas.

  Feng Minrui didn't know whether to be surprised or to be speechless.

However, the corners of Zhao Sicheng's mouth turned up, and his face was full of sarcasm: "Hollywood has basically banned his movies, and he wants to make a comeback and make his own cinema, just like a gambler, or like a drowning man catching him." At the last straw, after grabbing the straw, can he let go?"

  The two of them were happy along the way.

   This was the happiest day for the two of them after "Wolf Blood" was rectified.

  For Feng Minrui, this day is even double happiness!

  Feng Minrui got a green card...

  He donated a large sum of money to a charity in Los Angeles, got a green card, and then followed Zhao Sicheng's advice, several houses, and several stocks.

Some time ago, the stock market and real estate market in the United States were very crazy. Feng Minrui even made a small sum of money. After making money, he became a little addicted to stock trading. This thing is like gambling. It makes people dream and passionate every day surging.

   "It's up two more points today!"

  Feng Minrui read the stocks and was about to turn off the phone when the phone rang.

  The other end of the phone...

   Someone told him to throw away the stocks and real estate in his hand immediately, and told him that the stock market was about to suffer a major earthquake.

  But Feng Minrui laughed.

   "Today is coming to an end soon, throw it away tomorrow!"

   "Tomorrow will be too late, there will be thunderstorms on Wall Street!"

   "Scaremongering, this is the fake news released by some capital!"
