The entertainment empire began with Liu Yifei's premarital pregnancy.

A virtual screen appeared in front of Lin Bufan. This screen could only be seen by Lin Bufan and did not exist before.

[System Upgrade and Optimization (Expandable)]

Lin Bufan reached out and clicked the (expandable) button. Immediately after a series of optimizations, the changes appeared one by one before his eyes.

The first thing to change is the daily check-in system.

The basic daily check-in remains the same, but the rewards have changed.

Originally, it was [one bottle of Liuwei Emperor Pills (10 pills) + one bottle of Beauty and Nourishing Pills (10 pills) + 100 million US dollars]

The current reward is [100 million US dollars + 100 points].

"Where are my Six-Flavor Emperor Pills and Beauty Elixir? Also, what are these points?"

Lin Bufan stared blankly at the changed daily sign-in rewards.

Soon, I learned about the points from the notes below.

In short, the system upgrade has opened a points mall where points can be redeemed for cash; 1 point can be redeemed for 1 US dollars.

In other words, the daily allowance of $100 million plus 100 points is equivalent to $200 million per day.

However, it would be a bad deal to use points to redeem cash.

The Liuwei Dihuang Pill and Beauty and Nourishing Pill that disappeared have not disappeared. Instead, they have been included in the points mall. However, they are no longer sold by the bottle, but by the pill, with one point for each pill.

"fine……"

Lin Bufan breathed a sigh of relief. Although he had accumulated quite a few bottles of Six-Flavor Emperor Pills and Beauty Elixir in his dimensional space, if he only spent them and didn't take them in, they would run out sooner or later.

Previously, he was somewhat helpless because he couldn't possibly use up all the Six-Flavor Emperor Pills and Beauty Elixir, and it would be a waste to have them piled up. Now, things are much better; he can directly purchase them with points after he finishes using them.

In addition, points can also be used to purchase sheet music, movie scripts, TV drama scripts, and program proposals for variety shows, mainly related to entertainment products.

Not only daily visas, but weekly visas have also changed.

The original weekly gift was [One bottle of Liuwei Emperor Pills (10 pills) + One bottle of Beauty and Nourishing Pills (10 pills) + 1 million US dollars + Skill Upgrade Scroll Treasure Chest *100 + One song]

It has now become [500 million US dollars + 500 points]

In the points mall, skill upgrade reels can also be purchased, with each reel costing 100 points. Songs are priced from 10 points to a maximum of 1000 points.

Songs worth 10 points are the kind that are unacceptable to listeners, such as a certain singer's "Cancer," which is worth 10 points.

10 points is the minimum, and 50 points is for catchy pop songs. For example, "Mice Love Rice" costs 60 points.

Songs starting at 100 points are generally considered to be songs that can be sung for a while, such as "Little Apple," which falls into this category.

300 points or more indicates a classic song, such as Beyond's "Boundless Oceans, Vast Skies".

The highest price is 1000 points. For example, songs like Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody" are generally priced between 900 and 1000 points.

Just as Lin Bufan had thought, although 1 point could be exchanged for 10,000 US dollars, it would be a huge loss to use it to exchange for US dollars.

In terms of songs, "Mice Love Rice," which is worth 60 points, is worth far more than $60; this song has generated hundreds of millions in value.

Of course, if it's something like "Cancer," then you need to think twice. Unless it's a specific mage singer, there's absolutely no way you'll break even.

The changes to the weekly sign-in, besides the points system, include the addition of cash rewards, which was not available before.

If we calculate based on four weeks a month, that's $2000 million. Add $100 million per day, and it comes to $5000 million a month.

In addition to the weekly sign-in, the monthly sign-in has also changed.

Previously, the monthly reward included a daily bonus plus a film/TV script; now it's $1000 million USD plus 1000 credits.

"If you calculate it that way, even if you do absolutely nothing, you can still earn 6000 million US dollars in cash each month..."

Lin Bufan did a quick calculation, and putting everything else aside, after the system was revamped, he could simply choose to relax and do nothing.

Over the course of a year, this amounts to more than 7 million US dollars. These dollars will be transferred into Lin Bufan's designated account through various profit-making methods. Of course, these methods are tamper-proof and legal.

In addition to songs, the points mall also sells TV drama scripts and movie scripts, but the prices are much higher than those for songs.

The starting price is 100 points, and the maximum price is 5000 points.

According to the revised rules, you can probably earn about 74500 points per year by signing in.

The pricing of movie and TV series scripts differs from that of songs. Songs are priced based on their popularity, while movie scripts are priced according to the potential profits of the film.

Simply put, the more money a movie can make, the higher its price.

For example, the script for "Avatar" cost as much as 5000 credits, which is equivalent to 50 million US dollars, but at the same time, the film was also very profitable.

Excluding marketing and distribution, the filming cost alone was less than 300 million US dollars, yet it grossed over 2 billion US dollars.

The less you earn, the fewer points you can redeem. For example, the movie "Crazy Stone" had an original investment of 300 million yuan and a box office of 3000 million yuan. After deducting various taxes, fees, and costs, the profit was about 800 million yuan.

This movie costs at least 100 points, and in reality, if calculated according to the original version, it only barely breaks even.

However, that's how the price is set; 100 points is the minimum.

As for movies with even lower box office revenue, they weren't even listed in the points mall. Lin Bufan glanced at them and did some calculations. Basically, the price of points was proportional to the box office revenue.

例如100积分的电影，一般情况盈利都在500万美金—1000万美金之间，也就是5-10倍的价格。

Crazy Stone is an exception.

Yes, this is just the general case; there are also cases where the profit is even higher, but the maximum price per point is 5000 points.

Things changed before the new year as well.

The original annual check-in included [daily check-in + weekly check-in + monthly check-in + a random reward]

Now, it's become [1 million US dollars + 1 points + a random reward]

The reward is random and can vary greatly; it depends on luck.

What Lin Bufan was most looking forward to was the reward for checking in during the holiday. He wondered what it would become, and whether it would just be a simple combination of US dollars and points.
