On the way back, Xiao Yunhai told Kree about his intention to sell the cinema.
Kree was stunned. Then, his expression turned serious as he asked, "Xiao, are you joking?"
Xiao Yunhai shook his head and said, "How can I joke about such a big matter?"
Kree asked in confusion, "Xiao, the North American cinema chain, including our MGM Grand, brought you more than ten billion dollars last year. Why are you thinking of selling it?"
Xiao Yunhai obviously could not tell him the reason. He said, "Kree, I'm sorry. This is the decision that my business team and I made after careful consideration. Your MGM Grand cinema chain is also included. Therefore, what you should do now is to find a suitable buyer to ensure that you can continue to have the decision-making power of the MGM Grand cinema chain. "
Kree frowned and said, "To be honest, it's really not easy to find such a person."
Xiao Yunhai asked, "Why don't you learn from Steyr? Why don't you just buy a small company and give them the shares of the cinema chain? The actual control is still in your hands. "
Kree said angrily, "If it were that simple, why would we sell the shares to you? Steyr is very powerful. Although everyone knows that it's Steyr's company, legally, that small company is independent. Both parties have not signed any contract. And the boss of that small company is from Steyr Networks. He would never dare to betray the parent company. If our MGM Grand did the same and picked a person and gave him 20% of the cinema chain's shares, I reckon that the cinema chain's shares would belong to someone else before the next day. Because we don't have the deterrent power of Steyr Networks. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "Then I have no choice. I can only give you a month's time for this matter. I reckon that my team will contact you this afternoon or tomorrow. "
Kree nodded and said, "Okay, I got it. Send me back to the company. I want to discuss this with my father. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "No problem."
Xiao Yunhai dealt with the investment in the morning, bought a plane in the afternoon, and went to recruit Director Bikven in the evening. It was a very fulfilling day for him.
After sending off Kree, Xiao Yunhai went to the Magic Visual Effects office.
After receiving the news, Daniel immediately appeared in front of Xiao Yunhai and complained, "Boss, you haven't been here for a long time since Marvel Comics was established."
Xiao Yunhai patted his shoulder and chuckled, "With you, Daniel, there's nothing for me to worry about. There were too many troublesome things on Marvel's side, so I naturally had to focus on them. How have you been? "
Daniel said, "Very good. Half a year later, our profits reached 4.2 billion USD. Moreover, the orders he had accepted were all full in the second half of the year. I was just about to apply to hire a new batch of special effects personnel. "
Xiao Yunhai knew very well that the reason for this situation was that there was a change in the quota of the cinema chains and the producers, which made the movie companies dare to film blockbusters. That was why Magic City was so full.
Xiao Yunhai said, "You can do as you see fit. Daniel, don't you think our office is a little crowded? "
Daniel nodded and said, "Yes, Boss. If we hire another 300 people, we won't be able to fit them all. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "Then let's change to a bigger place. We might as well buy a skyscraper."
Daniel frowned and said, "Boss, buying a skyscraper is not cheap. If it's more than 30 floors, it will cost at least 1 billion USD."
Xiao Yunhai waved his hand and said, "Money is not a problem. Daniel, I only have Magic Visual Effects and Marvel Comics in America. I plan to buy an office building of at least 50 floors and combine the two companies' offices. Next, Marvel will be filming a superhero movie series. I need your cooperation, understand? "
Daniel nodded and said, "I understand, Boss. I heard that three skyscrapers with more than 60 floors have just been built not far from here. I'll bring some people to take a look tomorrow. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "How about this? You and Marvel's Raúl will go together. If it's suitable, we'll buy it. Consider it our investment in real estate. I believe the price will only get higher. As for the funding, Magic City will take care of it. Marvel has just invested 2.5 billion USD into the children's theme park. They can't come up with any more money. "
Daniel laughed and said, "Boss, whether it's Marvel or Magic City, it's all your money, okay?"
Xiao Yunhai laughed when he heard that.
As the two chatted and laughed, they arrived at the special effects studio where Bikven was working on the post-production of "Lord of the Rings".
Seeing that Bikven was busy with the technical staff, Xiao Yunhai did not let Daniel disturb them. Instead, he sat quietly at the side.
Ten minutes later, Xiao Yunhai saw that their work seemed to have come to an end. Only then did he walk up and greet them.
"Director Bikven, shouldn't you take a shower? I seem to smell a strong odor from your body. "Xiao Yunhai deliberately teased him.
Bikven was very happy to see Xiao Yunhai. He originally wanted to hug him. After hearing what he said, he was puzzled and sniffed himself. He said, "There's no smell. I just took a shower last night. "
Xiao Yunhai laughed and gave him a warm hug. He said, "I was just joking with you. You took it seriously."
Bikven said, "Mr. Xiao, you're too naughty."
When the other technicians saw Xiao Yunhai, they all stood up in unison and respectfully called out to him, "Boss."
Xiao Yunhai nodded to them one by one and said, "Brothers, you've worked hard. However, I think that when you receive your salary and bonuses next month, you'll find that your hard work is worth it. "
Everyone had heard from Daniel that as long as they did well, they would be rewarded with a lot of money in July. It was estimated that each person would receive more than 100,000 USD.
However, they did not believe it. In the whole of Hollywood, for people like them at the bottom, no boss would give them such a high salary.
Now that they heard Xiao Yunhai say that, a glimmer of hope suddenly rose in their hearts.
One of the technical staff asked, "Boss, are you really going to reward each of us with 100,000 USD?"
Xiao Yunhai was stunned and said, "100,000 USD? I don't know. Daniel, what's going on? "
Daniel smiled and said, "In order to increase everyone's enthusiasm, I told them about the reward you set in March. I think this group of people might have calculated that each of them will receive about 100,000 USD. "
Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "I see. Eh, that's not right. According to the company's reward regulations, it's more than 100,000 USD. "
Daniel said, "Yes, boss. I asked the finance department to calculate. The new employees can get between 150,000 and 180,000 USD. Not to mention the old employees, they can get more than 200,000 USD. Hehe, they might have calculated wrongly. "
When the technical staff heard Daniel's words, they were all stunned. Then, ecstasy emerged from the depths of their hearts and they could not help but cheer in unison.
"Long live the boss."
Their voices were heard by the colleagues outside who were about to get off work. They could not help but walk in to see if there was any good news.
When they heard that Xiao Yunhai was going to give them a bonus of about 200,000 USD, the entire office building was filled with thunderous cheers.
"Boss, you're too generous."
"Boss, I'm willing to work for you forever."
Daniel clapped his hands and interrupted everyone. He said, "There's another piece of good news for you. We're moving. The boss plans to buy a building with more than 50 floors to house all the staff of our company and Marvel Comics. "
"Yeah, that's great."
"Finally, we don't have to squeeze in here. What I want most now is a separate desk."
"I knew it. Good things will definitely happen when the boss comes."
"Boss, you're so cool."
When everyone heard these two pieces of news that couldn't be any better, they were very excited and praised Xiao Yun Hai to the fullest.
Xiao Yunhai waved his hand and said with a chuckle, "Alright, stop flattering me. The reason why I'm giving everyone a reward this time is because our profits for the first half of the year are very impressive. I've said before that I'm not a stingy person. Only when the company's profits increase will everyone benefit. It's not time to leave. Everyone, go back and accompany your families and children. Tell them this news and let them be happy. "
"Thank you, boss."
Everyone bowed to Xiao Yunhai in unison and then left in high spirits.
