Rebirth of Hong Kong: Rising Era

Chapter 159 I'm Back Again

Wang Yaodong and Han Feng came to Chu Muxing's workshop.

"Wang Sheng, the dividend you mentioned has not been paid yet!" Chu Muxing said when he saw Wang Yaodong.

Wang Yaodong was a little surprised when he heard it. He didn't expect that he hadn't called him after so long.

He took the phone and was about to call Fox to ask. As soon as he pressed the number, Lingna came over and said, "Mr. Chu, Mr. Wang, the dividends from several movies we collaborated with Fox have been paid."

Wang Yaodong then put down the phone and said, "Lingna, please check it first to see if the number is correct."

Lingna nodded and returned to her seat to check the accounts.

Wang Yaodong handed the contract in his hand to Chu Muxing and said: "Muxing, this is the contract I signed with Fox in the name of the company. I will cooperate with them in the name of the company and you will follow up, so the company's process must be accelerated."

"Ok."

Chu Muxing answered and took the contract and read it.

Wang Yaodong looked at Han Feng and the two who were following him and said, "You don't have to stand, you can all sit down."

Han Feng and others sat down after hearing this.

Wang Yaodong stopped paying attention and picked up a newspaper to read.

It didn't take long for Chu Muxing to read through the contract, but seeing Wang Yaodong reading the newspaper and Ling Na also reconciling accounts, she had to continue pretending to read the contract.

More than an hour later, Lingna finally finished checking the accounts.

"Sheng Wang, the account has been reconciled."

Wang Yaodong put down the newspaper in his hand and said: "How much profit did we make from the five movies we collaborated on."

"The film's box office in China and the European market totaled more than 680 million US dollars. After reasonable tax avoidance, we can finally get more than 600 million 20 US dollars.

The other few films, except for the hero's true character, were all flopped on the street, with a combined total of just over 560 million US dollars. "Lingna reported to Wang Yaodong.

Wang Yaodong did some math in her mind when she said it. She didn't expect that the amount of money was quite considerable. It was more than 100 million US dollars. With this money, her financial pressure would be much less.

Hang Seng has not settled the loan matter yet, and Yaodong Real Estate Group does not know how to raise the money. If they have this money, they can support it.

"Remit 500 million U.S. dollars to the film company in Xiangjiang, and the remaining 600 million U.S. dollars will be kept here for the company's development." Wang Yaodong thought about the arrangement.

"Okay, I'm going to talk to the finance department over there and transfer the money."

Wang Yaodong waited until she finished speaking and waved his hand to her.

Lingna saw this and returned to her seat to work.

After she left, Wang Yaodong said to Chu Muxing: "I will bring the script within three days. I hope you can find a larger office space and set up the company's framework."

"Sheng Wang, don't worry, I'm already recruiting, and someone should apply tomorrow."

When Chu Muxing heard Wang Yaodong's words, he quickly expressed his ability to do things and let him know that he was still qualified to be the person in charge.

Wang Yaodong nodded and left the studio with Han Feng and others under Chu Mu Xing's farewell.

He believed that if he came over in a few days, he wouldn't meet here again.

……

After returning to the hotel, Wang Yaodong started writing the script after dinner.

This time, he wrote about the family comedy movie "Home Alone" that Fox invested in in the 90s. The cost was not very high, but it was a hit.

In the 90s, the first part of "Home Alone" was among the sci-fi blockbusters, earning more than half a billion dollars at the box office.

Wang Yaodong has reason to believe that even now, it will have a box office of [-] million US dollars!
At the thought of making a lot of money, Wang Yaodong felt as if he was a god when writing, and the more he wrote, the more excited he became.

Unconsciously, I wrote until about three o'clock in the night.

I just looked at the time accidentally, otherwise I wouldn't have known it was so late.

Putting down the pen in his hand, he first took a bathrobe and went into the bathroom to take a shower before lying on the bed.

But I don’t know why, but my mind keeps thinking about the plot of “Home Alone” and a lot of dollars, and I can’t sleep.

I don't know how long I tossed and turned on the bed, and Li Zhi was not around at this time, so I couldn't relax.

Fortunately, after tossing and turning for who knows how long, Wang Yaodong finally fell asleep.

He woke up again by a knock on the door.

I got up, yawned, rubbed my eyes, walked to the door and opened the door. I saw Han Feng knocking on the door and asked.

"Han Feng, what's the matter?"

"It's okay. It's already past one o'clock in the afternoon and I haven't seen you come over to ask for dinner. I was afraid something might have happened, so I came over and knocked on the door to see if you were there." Han Feng replied.

"It's past one o'clock in the afternoon. I had insomnia last night and was still sleeping just now. Have you eaten?" Wang Yaodong said apologetically.

"We took turns eating a little bread downstairs in the morning, but not yet in the afternoon."

"Then let me wash up and go down to eat together."

After Wang Yaodong finished speaking, he turned back to the room, walked into the bathroom and started washing up.

Upon seeing this, Han Feng helped him close the unlocked door and returned to his room.

Five minutes later, Han Feng took the other two people to Wang Yaodong's door and waited.

They waited for about 2 minutes, and Wang Yaodong had already changed his clothes and walked out immediately.

When he opened the door, he saw Han Feng and others. He nodded towards them and went to the hotel restaurant to have a meal together.

After eating, Wang Yaodong didn't go anywhere. He returned to his room and started writing the script again.

……

In the blink of an eye, two days passed and Wang Yaodong also completed the script.

After sleeping until the afternoon, Han Feng and others came to the hotel to relax after lunch.

Nowadays, luxury hotels basically have leisure and entertainment venues.

After a day of relaxing like this, the driver led us to the company the next day.

In the end, it was not called "Huameng Media Company", but directly named "Huameng Film Company".

The new office space is also much larger than the previous one.

This venue is more than 260 square meters and is closer to Fox.

And there was already a front desk. No, as soon as he stepped into the company, Wang Yaodong was stopped at the door.

But it's possible that the general manager here is Chinese, and the front desk wouldn't dare to make a mistake when seeing a Chinese person coming over, and would ask in a nice voice what's the matter.

Wang Yaodong was quite satisfied with the receptionist's attitude, and said to the receptionist, "I'm looking for your general manager Chu."

"I wonder what's going on?"

The front desk heard that it was the general manager and asked again.

Wang Yaodong smiled and said: "Your general manager will call me boss when he sees me, what do you think?"

The receptionist understood everything as soon as he heard this. It turned out that the big BOSS had arrived.

"Wang Sheng, I will show you the way."

After the receptionist finished speaking, he quickly helped Wang Yaodong lead the way.

Wang Yaodong followed him to Chu Muxing's office.

The door just wasn't closed, so he knocked on the office door twice and walked in.When Chu Muxing saw Wang Yaodong approaching, he quickly stood up, and the meeting in progress had to be stopped first.

Seeing his appearance, several people attending the meeting here also turned their heads and looked towards the door.

When Lingna saw that the person coming was Wang Yaodong, she also stood up.

Several other people saw this and knew that he must be a big shot, so they also stood up.

Upon seeing this, Wang Yaodong waved his hands towards several people: "Sit down, there is no need to stand up."

The others who didn't know Wang Yaodong all looked at Chu Muxing again.

Chu Muxing also quickly explained to them: "Let me introduce to you, this is Wang Yaodong, whose English name is Jack Wang. He is our big boss at this time."

When several people heard this, they quickly said hello to Wang Yaodong.

Wang Yaodong once again gestured to everyone to sit down, and he also sat down.

After everyone saw Wang Yaodong sitting down, they followed suit.

"What are you discussing?" Wang Yaodong asked.

Chu Muxing heard his question and quickly replied: "Sheng Wang, the company has just been established and there are no projects, so I thought about asking them to go outside to see if there are any independent filmmakers who need investment. Anyway, we also have Fox as a distributor. Channels, just find something to do.”

"Hmm~ That's a good idea." Wang Yaodong praised in approval.

Chu Muxing smiled when he heard this, explained a few more words to a few people, and told them to leave first.

After everyone left, they were the only ones left in the office.

Chu Muxing poured Wang Yaodong a cup of coffee before sitting down again.

"Sheng Wang, the company's framework has been set up, but there are some positions that don't have suitable candidates yet, so they will be filled by other departments for the time being, and then they can be filled if suitable ones are found."

Chu Muxing reported on the company's salary situation.

Wang Yaodong nodded and said, "Well, you're doing pretty well. I hope you can keep it up."

After finishing speaking, he took a sip of coffee and put it down, then picked up his briefcase and handed him the script of "Home Alone".

"I have written the script for cooperating with Fox. You two can go over and talk to them about the co-production. I will leave in a moment and leave the rest to you."

Chu Muxing was a little surprised to hear that Wang Yaodong was going to leave soon. He originally thought that he should go back to formal cooperation before leaving.

"Are you in such a hurry?"

"There are still many things in Xiangjiang that I need to go back to deal with."

"Okay, then leave the matters here to me. I will manage the company well. Please don't worry, Mr. Wang."

Wang Yaodong nodded and told him something about the company.

After talking for more than an hour, after having said everything that needed to be said and explained everything that needed to be explained, he stood up and prepared to leave.

When Chu Muxing saw this, he also sent him downstairs to the company.

Only after getting in the car and driving away, he turned back to the company and read the script Wang Yaodong gave him.

……

Wang Yaodong did not fly back to Xiangjiang directly, but came to Lizhi again.

He had promised her when he went to Los Angeles last time that he would come and stay with her for two more days when he returned to Xiangjiang.

After school, Lizhi saw Wang Yaodong arriving as promised and happily threw herself into his arms.

Wang Yaodong also hugged her tightly. After leaving this time, he didn't know how long it would take to see each other again.

In the next two days, apart from going out to eat, I would either stay in the hotel room.

Every part of this luxurious room has traces of their battles.

The happy time was short-lived, and it was time to return to Hong Kong in a blink of an eye.

At the entrance of the airport, Wang Yaodong reluctantly said goodbye to Li Zhi, who came to see him off, and then boarded the plane.

After another long flight, we finally returned to Xiangjiang safely.

When they arrived at the airport, Chen Shengjun had already driven to the airport and was waiting.

The few of them met, chatted for a while, got in the car and returned to the mansion named by Wang Yaodong.

Wang Yaodong finally met the wives and children of Han Feng and others.

But because he had just gotten off the plane, after a casual chat, Wang Yaodong went back to the room upstairs to take a shower, feeling jet-lagged.

……

In the early morning of the next day, Wang Yaodong woke up early, changed into a sports and leisure suit and went downstairs to prepare for a lap.

However, Han Feng and others were already awake when they came down, and they were now boxing.

Seeing Wang Yaodong come down so early and wearing a sports and leisure suit, he went over to say hello: "Wang Shengzao, are you going out for a run?"

"Early, yes, wake up early, go out for a run." Wang Yaodong responded with a smile.

"Then let's go out for a run with you!" Han Feng continued.

Wang Yaodong knew why he said that as soon as he heard it. He smiled and nodded. They went out together and ran around the mansion.

In fact, it's not too far, the round trip is only three kilometers at most, and there are not many people on the road.

As a rich area here, basically they don't get up too early.

I went back to the mansion to wash up, change my clothes, and went downstairs to drink two bowls of white porridge before taking Chen Shengjun and others out.

As for Han Feng and others who went to the United States with Wang Yaodong before, they stayed at home to rest.

……

"Uncle Hai, I'm back!" Wang Yaodong said with a smile as he walked into Li Fuhai's office.

When Li Fuhai saw Wang Yaodong returning safely, he also smiled and said, "It's good to be back. Can you have two cups of tea?"

He also heard from Chu Muxing about what happened in the United States.

To be honest, he was quite worried about Wang Yaodong when he heard this. After all, he was the only bloodline who grew up playing as a big partner.

Wang Yaodong nodded when he heard about drinking tea and walked towards the sofa where the guests were.

Li Fuhai also stood up from the chair next to his desk, came to the guest sofa, and started to boil water.

"Has the movie share in the United States been divided here?" Wang Yaodong asked Li Fuhai.

"Received." Li Fuhai replied.

"All this money will be transferred to the account of my real estate group, which is currently severely short of money." Wang Yaodong said.

Li Fuhai nodded when he heard this: "Okay~ I'll talk to the finance department later."

Anyway, Yaodong Pictures is not short of money now and has sufficient funds.

"There is no problem with Yaodong Films and the theaters, right?"

Li Fuhai shook his head: "Everything is fine, there is no big problem, but the film source is still a bit lacking. Jiahe and Princess Jin still refuse to give up and continue to suppress us."

"The matter of the film source is indeed a problem, but there is no more solution, so it can only be like this temporarily." After saying that, he paused and continued: "But I think Princess Jin has only been brilliant for a few years, and they can't support it. Too long."

Li Fuhai felt a little whimsical when he heard what he said. The new art of becoming seven monsters is still famous now, how can it look like it is declining!
He obviously doesn't believe it!
