"4.2 billion"

Western suburbs villa.

Zhou Yu put down his phone and couldn't help but sigh.

Who would have thought that an anime movie would be so popular this summer, not only setting a new record for the highest box office of an anime movie, but also crushing other movies.

It was also because of the big hit of "The Devil Boy".

During this time, Zhou Yu has learned that many entertainment companies in Hong Kong have focused their attention on the animation and movie market, even MMS Entertainment is no exception.

When Ma Jianguo held a regular meeting last week, he promoted that the company would establish an animation production department, and even allocated a special fund of 200 million for this department, and this 200 million basically accounts for one-third of the existing funds in the MMS Entertainment account

.

Like many listed companies.

Despite its large scale and covering many industrial chains, the company's cash flow is not much, and some companies even have to repay bank loans every quarter.

It wouldn’t be a surprise to declare bankruptcy directly if you are not careful.

After all, the current company is very large, and there is nothing extraordinary about it. It depends on the debt ratio, the operating status of the company, and the cash flow on the account. If the debt ratio is too high, the operating status is average, and there is not much money on the account, it will go bankrupt.

It's only a matter of minutes.

Also because of the tight funds on MMS Entertainment's account and the establishment of an animation production department, Ma Jianguo hoped that he, the founder, would increase his investment in MMS Entertainment.

To put it simply, this animation production department can be split, with MMS Entertainment and Zhou Yu each accounting for half, and in terms of decision-making, Zhou Yu directly takes the lead.

Zhou Yu knows nothing about anime.

Not only does he not understand, he has never even watched any anime.

So no matter what good thing Ma Jianguo wanted to do, Zhou Yu knew the answer without having to think about it carefully. He was just using his identity as Chen Jiahui's father-in-law to ask Chen Jiahui to help him make suggestions.

However, Zhou Yu certainly did not agree to this matter.

But I also understand why Ma Jianguo did this.

"The Devil" is so profitable that many people are envious of it. It only makes money at the box office, but it also makes a lot of money in terms of derivative value.

As for the derivative value thing, although the sales volume of "The Devil" will drop significantly after the release, it is better than nothing. Even if it brings tens or millions of benefits to the company every month, it is still a long-term benefit.

Inside are the fixed assets.

What is the most stable way to maintain value in a company?

This is the kind of long-term benefit that can last for a long time.

With this, even if the company encounters any difficulties, it can slowly get out of the predicament by relying on this benefit. The more these benefits, the higher the company's market value will be.

Because of this.

Not to mention Ma Jianguo's envy, even Zhou Yu himself was very envious.

Fortunately, Chen Jiahui is his eldest son-in-law, especially since his first son with his eldest daughter will be born soon. Otherwise, even Zhou Yu himself cannot guarantee what he will do to Chen Jiahui... It's just that today is different from the past, even if Chen Jiahui is not

His son-in-law, but with Chen Jiahui's current personal assets and status in the entertainment industry, it would be difficult for him to shake him. As for certain methods, once used, if not used properly, even Zhou Yu would not dare to imagine the consequences.

.

Artists are only at the bottom of the entertainment industry.

Investors are considered middle-level.

And his eldest son-in-law, whose personal assets are likely to exceed tens of billions this year, is already in the upper echelon.

certainly.

These thoughts were just fleeting thoughts that Zhou Yu had after sighing, and he was even very happy in his heart.

Now that he goes out occasionally, when others see him, they praise him for his good taste in choosing a son-in-law. Some old guys of similar age also joke and ask him to teach him some experience. Although there is ridicule in this, it is enough to explain these people.

Still very envious.

Whether a family can continue to prosper depends on the future success of its descendants.

Now the Zhou family does not have this problem. The only shortcoming is that the population is not prosperous, so Zhou Yu has already thought about it. After his eldest daughter's first son is born, he will immediately urge the younger couple to have another child, and at the same time...

...His little daughter also has to urge her. It doesn’t matter if she doesn’t like the talents from Hong Kong City. She can choose whatever she wants. As long as the young people are talented and know how to make progress, it doesn’t matter if they don’t have money now. As a father, he promises not to be stingy with a dowry worth hundreds of millions.

.

In this regard, Zhou Yu is very open-minded.

Especially his eldest daughter is a good example.

Just because he didn't interfere too much, his eldest daughter found Chen Jiahui.

Born in an ordinary family, it doesn't matter what you want. You can't meet basic requirements such as a house or a car, and your pocket is cleaner than your face. For this reason, Zhou Yu was still laughed at by the big guys in the circle overtly and secretly, even though he didn't say it to him face to face.

But Zhou Yu knew exactly what these people were thinking.

But now!?

In just two years, the then impoverished young man became an iconic figure in the film industry, worth tens of billions, and owned a mature animation studio that produced a movie that broke the ceiling of Hong Kong City.

Even though Zhou Yu doesn’t understand the animation industry, he also knows what it means for a studio to produce a hit animation movie like “The Devil”!?

This means that once the project of "The Devil Boy" 2 is launched, the guaranteed box office will be 3 billion.

And such a mature animation studio will be able to produce other animation movies with ease, which is much better than the entertainment companies that immediately jumped into this industry after seeing "The Devil Boy" become a big hit.

The director’s understanding of animation.

The staff's experience in handling characters' personalities and identifying which characters are likable and which are not likable cannot be compared to those who rush into this industry.

It is also based on this.

Zhou Yu heard that Wang Lin from Gangcheng Industrial offered a purchase price of 3 billion to buy this studio from his eldest son-in-law. After being rejected by his eldest son-in-law, Zhou Yu did not choose to persuade him.

Compared to the potential of this studio, three billion is really nothing.

The second part of "The Devil Boy" alone is enough to make money, let alone other aspects.

"Does this mean that Jiahui's net worth will soon exceed 10 billion!?"

Chang Ning, who was practicing yoga, asked hurriedly.

“It will be worse, but it should be fine this year.”

Zhou Yu opened his mouth and replied.

He knew how many movies his eldest son-in-law had invested in. "Conquering the Demons" co-produced with Charlotte Company has entered the post-production stage, and there is no problem in releasing it this year.

There is also a horror movie with a small investment, which seems to be called "The Ring" and seems to have been completed, as well as director Ning's "Partners" and director Wu's "Dark War" trilogy.

In the first film, his eldest son-in-law plays the male lead.

The second part is Zhang Yi.

The third part is Huang Bo.

Now that the first part of this series has been completed, MMS Entertainment will do the post-production editing work. Zhou Yu did not deliberately ask when it would be completed, but this is not a special effects blockbuster, and the script written by his eldest son-in-law is

It has been streamlined, and the post-production process will be very fast. There will be no suspense when it is released this year.
Chapter completed!
