What would you do if you had the chance to travel back in time? For the protagonist, Billy Carson, the day his father took him to see E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial in the movie theaters, he realized that maybe he wasn't in a fuzzy dream and maybe he was in a life that sent him with a system of suns, an art system, that will allow him to make history above the masses. I like anxious readers who question, I have some people who follow the story and because of them, I have learned a lot, if you are new, keep in mind that I am also new to writing, and I want to finish this story even if it has many errors, for all the stories unfinished. English is not my main language. But I do what I can, good day. this is my Patreon, I'm usually 20 chapters ahead, I hope you like this series, good day. patreon.com/vin_modeus12 (Disclaimer: Everything described in this series is science fiction)

workweek.

October 29.

After three days of intense work, the most important day arrived: the negotiation agreement with producer, writer, and executive director Saul Zaents, who had in mind and had worked on the entire English Patient project, along with some small expenses dedicated to producing all the intricacies of the film production.

However, he had to address doubts about the entire labor market, toys, and marketing delivered for the series in the morning. The ridiculous investments of over $100 million for Toy Story and The Lion King yielded a considerable profit.

The accounting reading began.

In summary:

Only 65% of the toys have been sold with minimal and maximum increases in some goods, but everything remains stable. It is considerable that, by December of this year, parents will buy toys for their children during Christmas. Toy sales are one of the assets that have been divided and paid for their complexity. Profits amount to covering costs and more. However, toy sales are developing strongly, with $21 million in profits.

The contract with Sony-Columbia for the sale of DVDs and VHS of Toy Story continues to succeed, with sales reaching multimillion dollars. The profits amount to around $87 million from DVD sales, not counting The Lion King, which has not been released for sale. The premiere is scheduled for November 19, a week before Thanksgiving. The promotion handled by Sony has eased burdens, and they most likely offer the best distribution prices. With a considerable 30% profit margin on all Lux Animation films, emphasizing that Toy Story is the best-selling DVD in history, with sales of at least 39 million copies on all five continents.

ID Software has experienced a boom in video game sales, with total profits of $37 million, and sales continue to grow. With the opening of more stable free trade in Europe, it is projected that sales will double and triple in the coming months.

Considerable expenses; however, the licensing business, a new product, has already sold more than 20 licenses in the country and different countries, along with 15 agreements with universities worldwide, for an almost negligible price. Profits have proposed the company's greatest success, with over $120 million in licensing, of which $55 million has been used to expand Autodesk services. The company is starting to report notable profits not only with its AutoCAD service but also with technical design, engineering design, and now Studio Pixar.

AutoCAD, although a $150 annual subscription model, is used by an infinite number of companies, entrepreneurs, architects, teachers, students, and engineers.

The following expenses are distributed to maintain the company and replenish spending on Pixar work, which has a lot to do with it and takes 30%. Again, reinvested in better production and software evolution, and the chosen movie, "Ice Age." Billy doesn't have money, but he develops more investments for Pixar this year and the next, which releases box office profits.

The end of The Lion King, which finished its box-office run on August 18, two months in theaters. It collected the following data: The premiere was delayed in some significant places, such as Asia, which collected considerable profits when its premiere was delayed for a month and a half.

Official Box Office:

United States: $159 million

Canada and North America: $9.9 million

Central America: $6.1 million

South America: $9.9 million

United Kingdom: $13 million

Portugal: $4 million

Italy: $6 million

Germany: $11 million

France: $8 million

Rest of Europe: $10.8 million

India: $11.2 million

China: $14 million

Rest of Asia: $11 million

Japan: $3 million

Oceania: $4 million

In the international box office, the majority of places, except for some, could only take 20%, which amounts to $27 million. Billy used half of this to expand the film distribution company and the rest to improve national distribution.

As for the North American box office, only half of the earnings, $79.5 million, minus 30% for various expenses and taxes, totaling $55.6 million, will be allocated to pay the Star Wars license for 10 years, costing $25 million. The rest will be distributed among the animation channel, the film "The English Patient," and various expenses related to Lux Animation.

This leaves enough money to promote the expansion of ID Software and apply for another loan so that George Lucas can kick off the Star Wars movie, as promised before 1997.

-These are quite an exhaustive list of tasks, - said Billy alongside Raimon, who was explaining everything relevant, along with other purchases that Billy still didn't quite understand.

-Well, if we didn't have a $90 million loan and you weren't asking for another loan of $120 million, we'd have positive numbers, - whispered Raimon. - The positive side is the tax savings. Next year, taxes will be at 12%, and we'll only pay the mandatory ones, with some extra exemptions because, in my view, we've already paid taxes with the university agreements, - Raimon added.

"Let's keep buying land; there's plenty of land around. I want the Star Wars recording studio to be sufficient for shooting all the chosen biomes," said Billy. The project to build a mega studio solely for Star Wars was enough to impress many people.

Raimon took a deep breath at the idea of

building a mega production studio solely for Star Wars, intensifying his excitement even more. It was like the messiah of Star Wars. - I don't think I can breathe properly, - said Raimon, taking off his jacket.

-We have to wait and see if the San Jose regime allows us to carry out the project. Otherwise, we'll start with purchases in San Francisco, Fremont, Santa Rosa, or Sacramento, - said Billy.

-I won't lie; the city is growing ridiculously. In the last five years, I've seen numerous constructions, - said Raimon.

Billy nodded. They had 13 acres of land at the Lux Animation headquarters, an additional 11 acres near Agnew, with a pending purchase of 30 acres across the street, and another 17 acres in Rivermark.

-I'll be the master at Star Wars conventions, the master of masters, - said Raimon, envisioning himself as the leader of the Force Warriors group.

-I have to go; Saul Zaents is waiting for me, - said Billy, noticing the red button lighting up. The meeting call was now, with a man whom Steve Parks described as a complete headache due to his arrogant attitude and unmatched business acumen. Despite Billy's insistence, the refusal was firm: sponsor my movie or you won't get the rights. Eventually, Billy had to request as Saul Zaents wished, knowing that was what Billy wanted. Otherwise, Steve Parks would have been swept aside in the negotiation.

Raimon grimaced. - I have calls to make; renewing contracts with Coca-Cola is my next duty. -

For now, Erwin wasn't following them, only for trips, special events, and galas. For now, he only had two shadows in his life: Douglas Sing and Leo Roy Hatcocok.
