The entertainment empire began with Liu Yifei's premarital pregnancy.
Chapter 172 Investing in Tesla
Scarlett Johansson didn't hear the answer she wanted until she heard the door close.
"That damn man..."
Scarlett John gritted her teeth.
The more warm and gentlemanly the other person was at the beginning, the more heartless they seem now.
But for some reason, the more ruthless Lin Bufan was to her, the harder it was for her to let go.
"I refuse to believe I can't win you over..."
Scarlett Johns made a firm decision in her heart and secretly swore an oath.
From childhood to adulthood, the men she set her sights on had never rejected her, and Lin Bufan was no exception; she was determined to conquer him.
……
Scarlett Johansson's scenes were few, and filming was completed in less than a week.
Aside from the first day, Lin Bufan completely ignored every invitation from Scarlett John. For him, it was enough to simply refuse a woman he had already slept with and didn't want to keep.
Fortunately, Scarlett Johansson is very professional. No matter how many times she was rejected, she did not bring her personal emotions into the role while filming during the day.
[Ding! Congratulations, host! Daily check-in successful. Check-in rewards: one bottle of Liuwei Emperor Pills (10 pills) + one bottle of Beauty and Nourishing Pills (10 pills) + 100 million US dollars]
[Ding! Congratulations, host! You have successfully checked in for the White Dew Festival and have received a White Dew Festival gift pack as a reward.]
[Host, would you like to open the holiday gift pack?]
"Open!"
September 8th, another holiday sign-in, Lin Bufan said without hesitation.
[Ding! Congratulations, host! You have successfully opened the White Dew Festival Gift Pack and received the following rewards: a movie script for "Ip Man 2", a shop in Shanghai's Financial Street, and a Bentley Continental.]
As soon as the system finished speaking, several items appeared in front of Lin Bufan.
The Bentley Continental is a two-door coupe, and judging from the model on the documents, it's exactly the kind Dong Xuan likes.
After putting away his car keys, Lin Bufan glanced at the property certificate of the shop in Shanghai. The area wasn't very large; it was a single-story shop, only about 80 square meters. As for the price, he wasn't particularly clear about it, as housing prices were different now than in later years.
Although the shop is not large, its location is excellent.
"Ip Man 2"
Lin Bufan picked up the script.
The first Ip Man movie was released on August 16th, and it has been showing for almost 22 days now.
"How much has the box office for Xiaobai's 'Ip Man' reached now?"
Thinking of "Ip Man," Lin Bufan immediately called Bai Bing over and asked him questions.
"Boss, 'Ip Man' has already grossed over 100 million at the box office, but the daily box office has dropped to less than a million..."
Bai Bing glanced at the records and then reported to Lin Bufan.
Since Lin Bufan went abroad, Bai Bing has been in charge of many things in China. Sometimes she can't remember those things, so she can only write down the important information in a notebook.
So that she could answer whenever Lin Bufan thought of it.
"The box office has surpassed 100 million?"
Lin Bufan was somewhat surprised.
If he remembers correctly, the first "Ip Man" movie only grossed over 90 million at the box office, not even reaching 100 million.
Now, after 22 days of release, "Ip Man" has grossed 1.25 million yuan, although its daily box office is less than one million yuan.
However, with 8 days left, it is estimated that the final box office will reach 1.3 million yuan without any problem.
"It grossed a full 30 million more at the box office than the original 'Ip Man'..."
"Could it be that Zhang Jin is a better box office draw than Yu Zhoudan?"
Lin Bufan had some doubts.
In fact, Lin Bufan had no reason to doubt at all.
The box office success is due to Emperor Entertainment's promotion, and even more so to him.
According to Emperor Entertainment's promotional materials, the film "Ip Man" was written and produced by Oscar-winning director Lam Bo-fan.
It is precisely for this reason that many viewers go to the cinema.
The box office increased by more than 30 million simply because Lin Bufan's name was added.
This is only the film he wrote and produced. If it were directed by Lin Bufan, regardless of the quality of the film, many viewers would probably still go in to watch it.
This is the influence of a great director. In terms of box office appeal, sometimes the director is more powerful than the actor, at least in China.
"Oh, right, boss, Bart, the manager from Strong Wind Investment, just called," Bai Bing suddenly remembered.
"What is it?"
Lin Bufan turned to look at Bai Bing.
"It's about investment, but they didn't say anything specific."
Bai Bing shook her head.
"Okay, I understand."
Lin Bufan nodded slightly, then took out his phone and called Bart back.
"BOSS!"
As soon as the call connected, Bart couldn't wait to speak.
"Is there some good news?"
Lin Bufan was also somewhat hopeful that Bart would report some good news to him.
Since the establishment of Strong Wind Investment Company, Lin Bufan has invested a total of 100 million US dollars, almost half of which has been used to purchase stocks of companies such as Amazon.
"Boss, it's good news. At yesterday's investment meeting, I reached an agreement with Tesla..." Bart's voice was somewhat excited.
"real?"
Upon hearing the news, Lin Bufan was first shocked, then overjoyed.
After Strong Wind Investment Company was established, Lin Bufan gave Bart a task: to acquire shares in Tesla.
Originally, Lin Bufan only thought that it would be best to invest in the company, but if that wasn't possible, he would have to wait until Tesla went public before buying its shares.
However, to Lin Bufan's surprise, Bart actually moved there.
Bart managed to acquire a 5% stake in Tesla with just ten million US dollars.
If this were in the future, that 5% stake would be worth approximately 80 billion US dollars, based on Tesla's peak market value.
That's 80 billion US dollars!
Furthermore, Bart, representing Strong Wind Investment Company, secured the qualification for Tesla's third round of financing.
For Tesla right now, nothing else is particularly important, because it's an electric vehicle industry, everything is new, so money is the most important thing.
Otherwise, for some traditional industries, Strong Wind Investment Company is relatively new and has limited resources, so it is not qualified to participate in this kind of financing.
"Boss, there's more good news!"
Just as Lin Bufan was feeling happy, Bart's voice came through the phone again.
"What good news?"
Lin Bufan felt a sense of anticipation; anything that Bart called good news must be something significant.
