After a loud gasp, the room returned to calm...

After Zeng Li regained consciousness, she pinched Ye Fan in shame.

"You are really evil, saying this to me at that time!"

Ye Fan felt the tight feeling just now, smiled and said nothing, letting Zeng Li tickle him.

The two played around for a while, and Zeng Li also laughed. Even if he doesn't feel anything about money anymore, he will still be very happy if he becomes a multimillionaire through legitimate means.

Then Zeng Li leaned in Ye Fan's arms and chatted with him about how to spend the money.

"I want to buy a house for my parents in Shashi, and Xiaoyu also wants to prepare a house so that they can live better."

"Your parents and grandparents also want to buy some gifts, as well as Xiao Mi and Yi Fei..."

"There are also Teacher Chang and others in the class..."

Hearing this, Ye Fan shook his head and said: "Teacher can do it, but forget about classmates. Don't just think about spending money on others, you have to think about yourself."

Zeng Li asked doubtfully: "Why did the classmate forget about it? I have also made plans for myself. I plan to buy more houses in Shashi and Beijing. House prices have risen so fast this year."

Hearing Zeng Li's plan, Ye Fan didn't know what to say. He wanted to create a queen in the entertainment industry, but she spontaneously embarked on the road of being a housewife. This style of painting was a bit different...

"Don't be too arrogant to your classmates, just show your intention. If you really want to help them, you can help them if there is a good opportunity in the future."

Zeng Li understood what Ye Fan meant. Although she felt that her classmates should not be concerned, she would still listen to what Ye Fan said.

Suddenly, Zeng Li thought of something and asked curiously: "By the way, Xiao Fan, I can make so much from one album, so how much did your album make?"

Looking at the gossipy Zeng Li, Ye Fan smiled and said: ""Light Chaser" made about 160 million. "Love is Just a Word" did not have any donations, so it made a little more."

Hearing that Ye Fan's albums can easily earn hundreds of millions, Zeng Li opened her mouth in surprise...

"Wow, that's so much. Don't you have hundreds of millions in savings now?"

"The money from the album does not go into my account. The income goes to the company, so I can pay less tax. The company now has 487 million in its account, mainly from the album and film and television dramas."

"..."

Seeing that Zeng Li was so shocked that she couldn't speak, Ye Fan didn't want to provoke her anymore. [Zhongsheng Company] still had nearly 600 million US dollars.

He was worried about how to spend the money quickly, otherwise it would have to sit in the bank and collect dust. He couldn't bear the little interest the bank offered.

After a long time, Zeng Li patted Wei An, who had grown bigger, and said, "Fortunately, you are in the company, otherwise it would be too scary if you had so much money on your own."

Ye Fan smiled and said nothing. He owns 95% of the company's shares, and the money in the company is just like his. The main purpose is for tax benefits.

Moreover, Zeng Li has neglected his novels. In the past few years, his personal savings alone have been 248 million.

Not to mention that the "Ghost Blows Out the Lamp" series is a hit, several previous novels he wrote such as "Embroidered Spring Knife", although sales have declined, are still sold every month.

In the second half of 1998 alone, four novels including "Xiu Chun Knife" sold 6.275 million copies across Asia, with a share of more than 30 million.

With this kind of continuous income, even if Ye Fan doesn't work in the future, relying on the copyrights of his novels, music and film and television dramas, he will be able to live and feed well for the rest of his life.

In addition, he owns 7 courtyard houses in Beijing, 13 in Shanghai, and currently has 4 properties on Hong Kong Island.

After 2008, the value of these properties alone is immeasurable.

However, having so much money is indeed a worrying thing. If the money is not spent, it is just a pile of paper and will depreciate.

Zeng Li's question reminded Ye Fan that he would have to make careful plans on how to spend money after the New Year.

"Soothing" the frightened Zeng Li, and soon the two of them fell into a deep sleep...

On January 15th, Zeng Li went to attend the first rehearsal of the Spring Festival Gala today, while Ye Fan continued to film on the set of "The Young Master".

For Ye Fan's show, Chen Yulu exempted him from the first three rounds of rehearsals, and Ye Fan was not required to participate until the fourth round of rehearsals.

The two of them have known each other for such a long time and have worked together so many times. Chen Yulu still doesn't know what Ye Fan is.

But today, Feng Gong's movie "Nothing Happens" was secretly released nationwide.

Well... I can't say it was sneaky, but this movie really had almost no publicity and was just released without much care.

If Ye Fan hadn't been in the industry and paid attention to his competitors, he probably wouldn't have known it would be released in such a low-key manner.

The key is that Ye Fan knew that "Nothing Happens" ended up doing well at the box office, which really fits the name of the movie.

Ye Fan and Xiaogangpao were charging forward, while Feng Gong was secretly laughing behind him. This phenomenon would definitely be breaking news in the era of self-media.

Although it was low-key, Ye Fan still called Feng Gong to congratulate him.

After all, the two of them have attended the Spring Festival Gala together so many times and know each other well. Moreover, Ye Fan really likes Teacher Feng, so they might have the opportunity to collaborate in the future.

Feng Gong was flattered when he received a congratulatory call from Ye Fan.

Although the two knew each other, they didn't keep in touch with each other very often. With Ye Fan's current fame and status, apart from their seniority, artists of the older generation like them really had nothing to compare with Ye Fan.

After the two of them finished chatting, Feng Gong hung up the phone. He thought about Ye Fan telling him about cooperation, and his mind couldn't help but think, is Ye Fan going to make a comedy movie?

Ye Fan didn't have this idea recently. He just felt that Feng Gong's constant comments about sketches were a bit unfair.

There will be so many good comedy movies and TV series in the future, and it will be much more exciting if he stars in it. Even if it is a serious drama, Feng Gong can still perform well with his acting skills.

While Ye Fan was filming, Wang Jinghua came over again.

"Mr. Ye, the box office results for the third week of "Savage Girl" are out. Take a look."

"In addition, Mr. Yuan Baye told me that Jiang Qinqin is not scheduled to star in "The White-Haired Witch", and Wang Yan is scheduled to star in "Return of the Pearl 2", which will conflict with the schedule of "Little Li Fei Dao", so she will not be able to play Lin Xian'er."

"He asked me to ask you if you have any other candidates."

Ye Fan took the document and read it first:

The mainland box office was 16.771 million yen, Hong Kong Island was 11.365 million HKD, Taiwan was 9.632 million, South Korea was 843,800 yen, Japan was 88.4848 million yen, and the Lion City... the total box office was 78.7914 million RMB.

"See You or Die" had a box office of 8.7674 million, and "The Gambler 1999" had a box office of 5.5937 million.

Starting from the third week, the box office of three movies including "My Sassy Girl" has seen a visible decline, and it is expected to drop even more in the fourth week.

"Savage Girl" can be postponed in China. It is expected to be released in other places within a month. However, the box office results in 1999 are already very good.

However, the Korean market is so strong that Ye Fan decided to make more Korean movies in the future.

After all, in Ye Fan's memory, the most popular movies in Japan, apart from Hollywood blockbusters and animated movies, are also romantic action movies produced by companies such as Tokyo Hot and Serious.

emm... Just look online...

Ye Fan handed the document back to Wang Jinghua and said, "Ask Fan Xiaopang if she is interested in playing Lin Xian'er. If she is willing, Xing'er will let Xiao Ran do it."

"Have you chosen the actors for the other roles on Master Ba's side? Can you see if you can get a few more?"

Wang Jinghua said: "Let me ask about Fan Xiaopang. Although the role of Lin Xian'er is heavy, it is not likable."

"As for the roles, most of the characters have been almost chosen. It's just Jing Wuming and some of the supporting cast that I didn't choose well."

Hearing this, Ye Fan glanced at Zhang Jin and Wu Yue in the distance. He turned around and said, "Let Mr. Yuan Ba ​​take a look at Zhang Jin and Wu Yue."

"Also, in the first episode, Old Man Tianji's granddaughter tried to win over Xiao Mi and let her show her face. She was just a supporting role, so there should be no problem."

Wang Jinghua nodded. Ye Fan's ideas were different from hers, but the starting point and interests were the same, so she had no objection at all.

Then Ye Fan called Zhang Jin and Wu Yue to him, told them the situation, and gave them time to go to Yuan Baye's place for an audition.

After hearing this, Zhang Jin and Wu Yue looked excited and excited, and thanked Ye Fan repeatedly.

The two of them kept saying "Thank you, Mr. Ye" and "Thank you, senior brother" incessantly, making Liu Yijun and others very envious.

Ye Fan waved his hand, indicating that it was nothing. One was his employee and the other was his junior. He would definitely help his own people if he had the chance.

In the future, they will all be part of the "Ye Fan Family". If Ye Fan wants to build an entertainment empire, no one can do it.

However, after Zhang Jin and Wu Yue returned to the set, the two looked at each other, and there were intense sparks in their eyes.

The eyes of both of them revealed endless fighting spirit, which was the determination of both warriors to win. At this moment, Zhang Jin and Wu Yue had changed from teammates to competitors!

Ye Fan saw the changes in the two of them, but he ignored them.

The workplace is like this. As the boss, Ye Fan gives them a chance. He will not care how the parties compete. As long as it is within the rules, the winner takes all!

…

That afternoon, after Wang Jinghua contacted Yuan Baye, she reported to Ye Fan the status of their discussions.

Yuan Baye didn't expect Ye Fan to want more roles. If it were an ordinary person, Yuan Baye would definitely retaliate directly, but this person was Ye Fan, so Yuan Baye couldn't help but have some careful thoughts.

"Mr. Ye, Mr. Ba didn't say he didn't agree. He just told me the theme song and ending song of "Little Li's Flying Knife"..."

Wang Jinghua's words made Ye Fan on the other end of the phone look blank.

These people are really dogs, they are always interested in his songs. Is Ye Daguanren’s song the meat of Tang Monk? Everyone in the circle wants to take a bite of it?

Wang Jinghua listened to Ye Fan's complaints on the other end of the phone, feeling amused and helpless at the same time.

5 million for a song can really be said to be a sky-high price. The key is that others can't pay back Ye Fan if they want to.

Under such circumstances, Ye Fan's songs are not much different from Tang Monk's in the music world, so it's no wonder that people in the music industry use various methods to invite Ye Fan to sing.

After complaining for a while, Ye Fan complained: "Does Old Man Yuan pay? Or does he want to prostitute me for free?"

Hearing that Ye Fan had changed his mind, Wang Jinghua immediately said: "That's not true. He is willing to pay, as long as the price is lower."

As for Ye Fan scolding the eighth master, Old Yuan, Wang Jinghua was intermittently deaf and heard nothing.
