Chapter 32

This money will be converted into his shares in MGM at that time.

This is a great opportunity for him to reach the top of Hollywood, and it must not be missed.

I can only blame the conditions offered by MGM for being too tempting.

...

"Kevin BOSS!"

As soon as Kevin entered the door, the two little girls at the front desk first shouted Kevin's name in unison, and then one of them got up and went in and called CEO Dawson.

The other took Kevin around the office.

Looking at the tender and tender blonde beauty in front of him, Kevin couldn't help but ask:

"Are you adults? Did Dawson recruit you in?"

Judging from Kevin's experience, there is an 80% chance that these two little beauty twins are not adults.

You must know that Americans will enter an abnormally mature state when they become adults, and they will look very different before and after adulthood. This is also the surprising reason why there are so many copper smelting addictions in the United States.

American billionaire Jeffrey Epstein committed suicide in prison.

The ramifications behind it are incredibly complex.

Loli Island, this shocking scandal has all happened.

It is true that what the Americans use to accuse other countries are actually their own mistakes, so it is said that the United States is saving others by itself.

"I'm 17 years old. Uncle Kevin asked us to come over. He also told us what Kevin BOSS looked like."

The blond little beauty was not afraid of Kevin's identity at all, and while taking Kevin around the office area, she introduced herself:

"My name is Alex Helen. I'm the daughter of Alex Dawson's sister. We didn't go to college. My mother, Uncle Todd Dawson, helped us find jobs, and my uncle let us come here."

"Oh? What's your salary?"

Kevin scratched his head and said, although these two little beauties are indeed very eye-catching, but as a capitalist, if the salary is high, he will definitely quit.

"$1,800, my sister Emma and I, that's the salary."

Kevin nodded. Although this salary is high, it is not excessive. Dawson finally has some points.

Helen's face was full of sweet smiles, but she was very nervous. Before she came, Uncle Dawson had told them about the identity of Steve Kevin, a famous Hollywood director.

This filled their hearts with longing.

As a member of the capital society, they are the most able to appreciate the charm of money. Kevin himself looks very handsome, and at the same time has a high status and is a multi-millionaire.

Although neither uncle nor mother said it explicitly, Helen knew that this was a great opportunity for them to change their class.

If they can marry Kevin, they will be able to enter the upper class at once.

In the United States, in addition to money, status is also very important in the upper class.

Famous directors like Kevin are naturally members of the upper class. They have the upper-class status in Hollywood and are more able to create superstars and generate huge income for other film companies.

The upper classes are happy to accept them as one of their own.

And the 17-year-olds are the most attractive time in their lives. This time is the best time for their captives' life tickets.

As for studying, to be honest, neither she nor her sister are expected to study, and college tuition is not something they can afford.

You must know that in the United States, if an ordinary person wants to graduate from college without a scholarship, he needs at least tens of thousands of dollars. This is still an ordinary school.

Those famous schools are not something that ordinary people can afford, at least their families can't afford them.

"Then why don't you continue to go to school?"

Kevin touched his chin and asked gently.

Helen, this little clever ghost, suddenly took Kevin's arm and said:

"I can't afford it. My sister and I's grades are not good. If you can't get a scholarship, you want to graduate. At least ten or two hundred thousand dollars is required."

"After graduation, it may take decades to repay the debt, so there is no need for that."

"Besides, my sister and I are so beautiful, in fact, marrying a rich man early is the best choice..."

At this point, feeling the tenderness in his arms, Kevin quickly pulled out his hand.

It turned out that the two sisters came to find the golden turtle husband.

Although they are indeed beautiful, underage is underage, and Kevin will not be fooled by this.

"Cough, come on."

Kevin said righteously.

snort!

Helen just put her arms around her chest and snorted softly in her nostrils.

No man can resist the temptation of her and her sister, which has long been told by their experience in school, but their sisters have always kept a distance from the boys in the school.

Their mothers, when they were in school, **** with boys, and gave birth to them early, and their fathers had gone to nowhere.

This also caused them to be not very wealthy since they were young. If it wasn't for the help of their uncle, it would be a matter of time before they became homeless on the street.

Chapter 51 Box Office Dividends

And once it falls to that point, it will fall into an infinite loop that cannot be turned over.

If you want to get a formal job in the United States, you need a fixed residence, and a fixed residence requires a lot of money, so once you become a homeless person, there is no external help.

will be reduced to the bottom of the society, and will never be able to stand up again.

So she and her sister understood early on the importance of finding a rich man.

And if this person can have both money and beauty, that's even better.

Kevin was included in the shortlist by her and her sister early, which even their uncle Dawson didn't know.

"Boss Kevin!"

At this time, Dawson was also called out by Allen and came to Kevin's side.

Dawson waved his hand and motioned for Helen and Allen to go to the front desk by themselves.

The two sisters left obediently, whispered during the period, and silently exchanged their understanding of Kevin.

After the sisters leave completely.

The two came to the boss's office.

Although there was no one for a few months, Dawson did a good job in maintaining the company, at least it was clean and popular.

Kevin lay down on the sofa and said:

"Are they all willing to come?"

Before leaving, Kevin instructed Dawson to transfer the agency contracts of several of his own young actors to this company.

He didn't want to make a wedding dress for CAA in vain. Since he turned his face, he should be thorough.

Dawson nodded and said seriously:

"Greg, Salma Hayek, and Julie are all signed to our company, but it's just these three people. You don't want the other little actors, and Will Smith is already famous, and we don't have enough resources. , won't attract him."

As the first job after job-hopping, it is natural not to be sloppy.

"Well, that's enough. Now we don't have that many resources, so just the three of them for now. By the end of the year, I will have more resources."

Kevin thought silently.

Dawson didn't ask much.

He has already seen Kevin's ability. He didn't take the initiative to say it, and Dawson didn't need to ask, he would know it by himself.

And Kevin's plan is exactly the shares of MGM.

After he becomes a shareholder of MGM, with his status, he will naturally be able to obtain a lot of film and television resources, and he will also be able to feed back to his company.

If you want to occupy a place in Hollywood, you need to use resources in many ways. He has a perfect plan in this regard, but all of this must start with MGM.

MGM is the first step in his rise, and there is no room for failure.

With a smile on his face, Kevin looked at the CEO Dawson in front of him and said easily:

"Dawson, come with me, go to Warner Bros. to settle the final payment, and get out of the box-office share of Desperate Town. Warner has already figured it out, just wait for us to sign and collect the money."

Dawson's spirit was lifted, and the company's account was not much money, which also made him a CEO who had no confidence. Now that he heard that a large amount of money was coming into the account, he was suddenly excited.

You must know that Kevin offered him an annual salary of $500,000, and also promised to increase his salary year by year according to the time and the development of Chenxi Company.

With this annual salary alone, his status in the family is completely different. His wife's obedience makes people experience the status of a man for the first time.

In this context, he is loyal to Kevin, and the only worry is that Kevin himself is not financially enough to support Chenxi Company.

He was happier than anyone else when he had money.

"Okay, when are you going, or just now?"

Kevin was going to sit down for a while, but Dawson didn't expect Dawson to be in such a hurry. In this case, he also got up.

The two walked to the door of the company.

"Kevin BOSS, let's go!"

Helen and Alan greeted Kevin with sweet smiles and voices.

Hearing this voice, Kevin couldn't help but walk a little faster.

These two goblins, when they are adults, Kevin will never let them go.

hateful! It's tempting to be so old.

Dawson, who was on the side, looked at Kevin's face and smiled slyly.

The reason why he called Helen and Allen over naturally meant that he was sending sheep into the tiger's mouth. Of course, this was also a help to Helen and Allen.

He knows Kevin's character, as long as he faithfully follows Kevin, he will never suffer.

Once you get on well with Kevin, let's not say much, the future will be well arranged, which is definitely not a problem.

.......

Inside Warner Bros., a merger and acquisition project is underway.

After high-level decision-making within Warner Bros., it was decided to buy shares in New Line Film Company at a high price, to take control of them, and to take them as part of their own.

Due to the influence of Kevin's two films, plus the influence of the copyright of Chainsaw, New Line's valuation has been much higher.

However, after careful research, Warner executives agreed that New Line was worth the money. To this end, they paid hundreds of millions of dollars worth of funds and obtained more than 51% of the shares of New Line Film Company.

This valuation is enough to show that the public is optimistic about the new line.

After the acquisition, the decision-making level of New Line remained unchanged, but only arranged a few personnel from Warner to supervise the finance of New Line, and at the same time added a member to the board of directors.

However, now that the performance is booming, the board members sent by Warner Bros. are temporarily just clay statues.

After all the business handover was done, Shay and Jeff Robinoff shook hands with smiles on their faces, clearly happy with the deal.

Shay left on the front foot, and Kevin and Dawson on the back foot came to Warner Bros.

The staff led Kevin to the business room and put a complicated list in front of Kevin.

There are various kinds of income written on it.

Then comes the final conclusion.

[Escape from the Dead Town, the total box office at home and abroad is 189,826,360 US dollars, the box office is divided into various costs, the box office income of the investor Chenxi Film Company - 3410 Sixty thousand... ]

The fraction Kevin at the back looked at it lazily, and the whole thing was about the same as what he expected.

The trend of Escape from Breakthrough is similar to what he imagined. As an affirmative thriller movie, although its quality is very high, it can achieve such a result because of the impact of this year's riots in Los Angeles.

As a black-oriented film, it broke 100 million in North America, and only received tens of millions of box office overseas, all of which were expected by Kevin.

After the box office is divided with the theater, about 60% of the revenue is the income of the film company. Of course, production and publicity costs must be excluded.

It was this amount of money that ended up in Kevin's hands, but on the whole it was a thirty-fold profit.

Moreover, in Hollywood, movie box office is only one aspect, and the follow-up income is also a huge amount, TV station copyright fee + derivative copyright fee plus + DVD plus other aspects.

Also a small amount.
