Chapter 543 "Girl with a Pearl Earring"

I learned that Su Rui was in a good mood today and was immersed in the gentle land where he had eaten twice in a row.

The old housekeeper knew it immediately and came immediately to report the news that the portrait presented by the fans was accidentally destroyed by the nanny.

Just as Jiang Jiaya expected.

Su Rui was indeed overjoyed and asked:

"Really? That's great. I think in this painting, my eyes are drawn too small, and my nose doesn't look like me. If the other person's parents didn't know my parents, and they were so considerate, I would have I just want to throw it in the utility room so that I don’t feel uncomfortable every time I see it.”

Upon hearing this.

The old housekeeper thought to himself that he had known the young master for a long time, and Jiang Jiaya understood him better.

Knowing that the nanny, who was worried, had successfully kept this hard-won high-paying job, the old housekeeper did not want to continue talking about this topic, so he deliberately interrupted and reported:

"When it comes to the most famous portraits in the world, I think besides Van Gogh's self-portrait, Raphael's self-portrait, "Mona Lisa", "Unknown Girl" and other oil paintings, it is "Girl with a Pearl Earring."

"This representative work by the 17th-century Dutch painter Johannes Vermeer is collected in the home of the employer of a good friend of mine."

As early as when he was in school in his previous life, Su Rui had heard an introduction about it. The content was nothing more than how classic this oil painting was, how rare blue paint was at the time, and so on.

Given the high quality of "Girl with a Pearl Earring", Suri felt that if she was willing to spend some energy and time to promote it tirelessly, and once the fame spreads around the world, she might be able to own one, as good as the "Mona Lisa" Shakespeare's world-class paintings are enough to be used as treasures in private museums.

If the movie is successful, it means both parties will make money, which is definitely a great opportunity from a marketing hype perspective.

If the investment in the movie is relatively low, even if all the money is lost in the end, the oil painting "Girl with a Pearl Earring" will still appreciate in value due to its increased fame.

Famous paintings such as Leonardo da Vinci's "Mona Lisa", Van Gogh's "Starry Night" and "Sunflower" series can continuously help the museum earn box office, and they are top-notch collections that are difficult to buy even with money.

Later, when he had nothing to do, he also watched the movie of the same name, starring Scarlett Johansson, who was about to film "Super Body".

Su Rui's artistic accomplishments are limited, and he only started to get into it gradually after he got rich. He is a bit like a nouveau riche.

He wanted to buy this oil painting in a high-profile way, and then write a script that was attractive enough to test the waters by making a movie with a colorful plot about a domineering boss and sadomasochism.

After carefully looking through several pages of search results, I found that there was really no movie of the same name, only an original novel called "Girl with a Pearl Earring".

In the blink of an eye, a good marketing idea suddenly appeared in Su Rui's mind.

Girl with a Pearl Earring is different.

I don’t remember much about the content of the movie. Perhaps due to cultural differences, Suri was not interested in movies of that theme. Of course, I don’t know what the final global box office performance will be.

Most of the time, he chooses to buy collectibles for investment appreciation and reasonable tax avoidance. He does not like it from the bottom of his heart. He is even more dismissive of many modern high-priced artworks that are pretentious and have not accumulated over time. He thinks people are stupid with money. More people will buy it.

Say something.

"Some time ago, my friend mentioned that the collector's son who inherited this painting seems to be planning to sell it, and he also asked someone to evaluate the price..."

Thinking that she had never heard of the movie "Girl with a Pearl Earring" in her life, Suri raised a finger to signal the old housekeeper to wait, and quickly searched the Internet for related news.

Since there is no way to spend money to buy it, it seems good to speculate on it yourself.

According to a rough estimate, there may be potential profits worth US$2 million hidden in this, which is worth letting Suri give it a try...

... From the old housekeeper, I asked for specific information about the collector of "Girl with a Pearl Earring".

For this kind of "small-amount project", there is no need to hesitate and weigh.

Suri immediately called his art consultant and asked the other party to try to communicate with the seller and anonymously quoted around US$6000 million.

Thanks to the friend of the old housekeeper, he inadvertently revealed the news that the appraisal agency valued the painting at 6500 million US dollars. Taking into account about 10% commission and handling fee, the price he gave was not only very conscientious, It can also save time and commission costs for both parties.

Probably due to the butterfly effect, there was no movie of the same name. The valuation of this oil painting "Girl with a Pearl Earring" is slightly lower than in its previous life, but it is still one of the most famous oil painting collections in the world.

Informed the art consultant about the task, but there was no news for several days.

Because Hoshino Yuko went back to her villa on the beach in Malibu to rest, Suri had no chance to look back and stayed at her house for three days in a row.

Discussing the script with director Christopher Nolan, communicating with representatives from Hong Kong City about local shooting and asset management orders, and being overwhelmed by countless trivial matters every day.

After finalizing the yacht design draft.

Netflix Entertainment also released the news immediately, attracting the attention of countless people, who were stunned by the luxury of this superyacht named "S".

As long as the option incentive is unlocked, the company needs to pay for Suri to customize the yacht.

It was clearly a large expenditure, but the market value of Netflix Entertainment surged by about US$31 billion on the day the news was released, successfully bringing the company's total market value to the US$400 billion threshold.

The logic behind the rise is actually very simple.

Starting the design of this superyacht in advance shows that both Suri and the Netflix Entertainment board of directors are very confident in unlocking option incentives.

Since the company's performance is so good, the stock price will naturally rise accordingly.

The option incentive plans of other companies often make investors complain, and occasionally they are brought to court by investors because the plan design is not reasonable enough.

Netflix Entertainment is different here.

The company has only been listed for more than three months, and the stock price has already increased by about 50%. Most investors have made a lot of money. In addition, as the director of the self-produced drama department, Suri has played an unparalleled role. Anyone who sees him is worthy of it. This is a great reward.

In some management jobs, others will think that "I can do it even if I do it."

Suri is different here. She has created many good dramas, including "House of Cards", "Prison Break", "Holy Grail", "Breaking Bad", "Pink Club", etc., which have simply shocked countless audiences. eyeball.

Even his die-hard haters have to admit Suri's incredible talent. According to external third-party evaluation results, a "Holy Grail" can at least increase the market value of Netflix Entertainment by about 25 billion US dollars.

Compared with these benefits, a superyacht worth US$4 million that can also advertise for Netflix Entertainment does not seem to be a big deal.

On the premise that the benefits are large enough, this group of investors will choose to defect casually if they are crazy.

What's more, Suri himself is still the largest shareholder of Netflix Entertainment. Since the listing to unlock option incentives, Netflix's parent company has retreated to the second largest shareholder.

This is equivalent to when he bought the boat, he paid the equivalent of 40% of the money himself...
