Below the stage, hundreds of pairs of envious and jealous eyes stared at them, their eyes red.
None of them would have thought that in less than a year after Storm Game Company was established, five ordinary employees would become millionaires with just one game. This was simply too legendary.
The five of them lined up on the stage. Xiao Yunhai shook hands with them, hugged them, and handed over the four million USD bank card and car keys to them.
Xiao Yunhai stood in front of the five and said, "Originally, I wanted to give them a trophy or a certificate of honor, but after some consideration, I decided against it. With this bank card and car keys, I believe they'll be happier than a thousand trophies. "
"The achievements of these five employees are obvious to all, especially in the important parts of the game's development. They've all contributed greatly, so this is what they deserve."
"Next, we'll be developing 'War of the Kings'. Every time there's a technical difficulty, the three people in charge will announce it. Whoever can solve it will get at least a million USD each. If the game achieves the same results as Warcraft, everyone will get four million USD each. "
"Everyone, whether or not you can become a millionaire like the five of them will depend on your own efforts. Tell me, are you willing to become the next them? "
"Yes," everyone shouted at the top of their lungs.
Xiao Yunhai laughed, "Then, good luck to you."
After the meeting, he looked at the time. There was still an hour before the movie ended. Xiao Yunhai returned to his office to consider the casting of 'Prison Break.'
The assistant director, stage manager, cinematographer, art director, and other crew members were all available in Hollywood. There was no need to make a special selection.
Xiao Yunhai didn't dare to relax when it came to the actors. The easiest way was to look for actors based on the looks of the actors in the movie from his previous life. As long as their looks were similar and their acting skills were up to par, there wouldn't be a problem.
Xiao Yunhai entered the main page of the Screen Actors Guild. The list of actors was divided into top, A-list, B-list, and C-list according to their salary.
Xiao Yunhai narrowed down the scope. He only looked for actors who weren't signed with other entertainment companies and had at least five years of experience.
As soon as Xiao Yunhai selected the search area, the names, photos, representative works, and brief introductions of hundreds of actors appeared in front of his eyes. It was clear at a glance and very convenient.
In just an hour, Xiao Yunhai found a lead actor who looked similar to the actors in his previous life and more than ten important supporting actors. They were all B-list and above actors, and three of them were A-list actors with high salaries.
In particular, Scott Bloom, who played the lead role, was known as one of the leading figures in Hollywood for the next 30 years. Previously, he had made at least 20 million dollars per movie. He was definitely a high-paid actor.
But for some reason, this guy had never joined the company. Therefore, in the past two years, he rarely acted in movies. The box office was average, and the corresponding salary dropped from 20 million to 15 million USD.
To be cautious, Xiao Yunhai watched Scott Broom's previous movies and found that the actor was indeed very intelligent. Although his acting skills weren't as good as the best actor's, it was because of his life experience.
He believed that in a few years, a new Oscar winner would appear.
Xiao Yunhai called Mo Yina and said, "Sister Mo, what are you busy with?"
Mo Yina said, "I haven't been busy recently. My company is on the right track, and I have a lot of free time. Boss Xiao, if you need anything, just tell me. "
Xiao Yunhai laughed and said, "I don't dare to tell you. I just want to ask you to do me a favor."
"Come on, say it quickly."
"Sister Mo, I've said before that I'm going to shoot a TV series called 'Prison Break'. Now, I've found actors through the Actors Guild. They are all freelancers. Take some of my scripts and find them. It's best if you can sign them. Especially Scott Bloom. He's the absolute lead of this TV series. He must be signed by our company. "
Mo Yina was very happy to hear that Xiao Yunhai was going to shoot a TV series.
As a die-hard fan of 'Legend of Empresses in the Palace', 'Step by Step' and 'Lang Ya List', she knew very well how good her boss was in TV series.
If "Prison Break" could achieve half of the ratings of "Langya List", then the entire Yunqing TV Station would be rich. More importantly, the value of the actors on the list would immediately multiply. This was very important to her management company.
Mo Yina asked, "Yunhai, is this TV series aimed at the whole world?"
Xiao Yunhai laughed and said, "Of course. Sister Mo, 'Prison Break' will be the stepping stone for our Yunqing TV Station to become a world-class TV station. I can guarantee that its average ratings will not be less than 10% in the world. It can even exceed 15%. The actors in it will also become real international superstars. And the influence of this TV series will be even greater than that of a movie. After all, there is only one movie, but a TV series can be broadcasted all over the world for a month. "
Mo Yina said, "That's great. Yunhai, send me the list of actors and their roles. I'll deal with it right away. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "Okay."
Just as he sent the list of actors to Mo Yina, Raúl knocked on the door and came in.
"Boss, more than 420 fans have finished watching the movie. They are waiting for you in the conference room."
"What did they say? Can they understand it? "
Raúl laughed and said, "They have already given the score. We have calculated that 392 out of 426 fans said that they liked it very much. All of them gave it 8.5 points and above. 22 fans said that they couldn't understand it, but they still gave it 7.5 points and above. The other 12 fans didn't give it a score at all. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "The fans who didn't give it a score are definitely not satisfied. Raúl, have you watched it in the theater? What do you think? "
Raúl gave him a thumbs up and said, "This is the most profound kungfu movie I have ever seen. It is more artistic than your 'Jing Wu Chen Zhen' and gives people a very profound feeling. Especially Miss Zhao Wanqing's performance. It is simply amazing. She is definitely a popular choice for the Oscar. She seems to act better than you on the show. "
Xiao Yunhai laughed and said, "You have good taste. The most prominent role in 'The Grandmaster' is her character, Gong Er. Let's go to the conference room. I want to have a good talk with the fans. "
Xiao Yunhai got up and walked to the conference room for the second time. Just like before, the atmosphere inside was just as enthusiastic.
After he entered, there was applause and screams.
Xiao Yunhai laughed and said, "Friends, thank you for taking the time to watch 'The Grandmaster' at my company. I know everyone's evaluation of it. Most of the fans gave it 7.5 points and above. Only 12 people didn't participate in the evaluation. I know that this is to save my face. I just want to ask everyone, is the score on the screen really what you think it is? "
"Yes."
"Then do you think this movie can be released in America? Can you understand it? "
A boy with a face full of pimples stood up and said, "Kungfu Xiao, this movie is definitely a masterpiece of kungfu. I think it is even better than 'Jing Wu Chen Zhen'. We sincerely hope that you can release this movie in the theater so that more Western fans can watch it. "
"That's right."
"I think so too."
Xiao Yunhai nodded when he heard everyone's words. He said, "Since everyone says it is good, then I will release it in the theater. If the other fans scold me because they don't understand it, then I will say it out loud. If you want to get scolded, then we will all suffer together. "
"Okay."
"Hahaha."
Everyone laughed.
