Two hours later, Xiao Yunhai finished filming the advertisement and came to the siheyuan. He played chess with the old man for the whole afternoon. It was really a fierce battle, and blood flowed like a river.
At night, before going to bed, Xiao Yunhai called Zhao Wanqing.
"Hello, honey, where are you?"
Zhao Wanqing said with a smile, "Of course I'm at home. When can you come over? "
Xiao Yunhai said with a wry smile, "I was supposed to get on the plane this morning. Who knew that I would become one of the top ten outstanding youths in Hua Xia. I'm going to meet the chief tomorrow night. Sigh, how depressing. "
"Don't show off there. You're really taking advantage of me. By the way, honey, let me tell you something. Hollywood doesn't seem to be peaceful recently. It's said that Marvel Comics is going to be auctioned. "
When Xiao Yunhai heard it, he was shocked and asked, "How is that possible? Who did you hear it from? "
The Marvel Comics of this world was much stronger than in his previous life. It was only ranked behind the eight major Hollywood studios. Its heroes such as Spiderman, Superman, Thor, Captain America, Hulk, Black Widow, Wolverine, Doctor Strange, Ghost Rider, Ant-Man, and so on were famous in Europe and the United States. Among them, Spiderman and Superman were also made into movies and became popular all over the world.
Why would such a company suddenly be auctioned?
Zhao Wanqing said, "I heard from Daniel that Marvel's boss, Lenus, had failed in investments in recent years and owed a lot of money. Coupled with the financial crisis last year, he suffered heavy losses. The bank has begun to freeze his funds. It can't be helped. That's why Lenus is ready to sell Marvel.
Xiao Yunhai naturally coveted Marvel. Every superhero movie in his previous life was a big hit. If it appeared in this world where the entertainment industry was extremely developed, he would definitely make a lot of money.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yunhai hurriedly asked, "Honey, how much is Marvel's market value now?"
Zhao Wanqing said, "Over the past two years, Marvel's Ghost Rider and Daredevil films have failed at the box office, and they haven't successfully launched a new comic hero. Coupled with the impact of the economic crisis, Marvel Comics' market value is now only 16 billion USD. What? Hubby, do you want to buy it? "
Xiao Yunhai smiled bitterly. "I want to buy it, but it seems like we can't afford it."
The couple could only take out 4 billion US dollars at most, which was a far cry from 16 billion US dollars.
Zhao Wanqing smiled and said, "Darling, if you really like Marvel, you can go to the bank to get a loan."
Xiao Yunhai said, "No way, another loan."
For the new Hua Xia cinema chain, Xiao Yunhai had already mortgaged all the things that could be mortgaged to the bank. Now, only the Dream Special Effects Film Company and the new Hua Xia cinema chain were left.
If they were used as collateral, they would be able to get enough money.
Zhao Wanqing said, "Money is only money when it's in circulation. Hubby, although we owe the bank 120 billion USD, this money is nothing. We can use the new Hua Xia cinema chain to exchange for all the other assets. "
"Ever since the emergence of the new special effects technology, the market value of the two companies, Magic Fantasy and Fantasy Fantasy, has been increasing rapidly. Now, they have both exceeded 15 billion USD, and Fantasy Fantasy has caught up later, reaching 20 billion USD. According to the bank's regulations, you can get 80% of the loan, which is 27 billion USD. If there are other good projects, you can borrow at least 50 billion USD through the unblocked North American cinema chain and Jiujiu Music Network. In other words, it's not that you have no money now, but that you have too much money. You can get 80 billion USD. Do you understand? "
Hearing Zhao Wanqing's words, Xiao Yunhai somewhat didn't dare to believe his own ears. He never thought that he would actually have so much money without anyone noticing.
After a while, Xiao Yunhai recovered from the shock and said, "Honey, can you tell me how many assets I have now, excluding the 120 billion USD loan from the bank?"
Zhao Wanqing said angrily, "I'm impressed. You don't even know how much money you have. Okay, I'll give you a rough estimate. Listen carefully. "
With Zhao Wanqing's detailed explanation, Xiao Yunhai had a comprehensive understanding of his assets.
First was the new Hua Xia cinema chain. Since the opening day, Xiao Yunhai's investment of more than 150 billion USD had become 280 billion USD. It had almost doubled, and the market value was still rising.
Next was the North American cinema chain. According to the current market value, it was about 60 billion USD.
Magic City and Fantasy were the companies with the most potential that the outside world had high hopes for, with a market value of 35 billion USD.
Then there was Jiujiu Music Network, which was about 10 billion Hua Xia dollars.
All in all, Xiao Yunhai had about 200 billion USD in wealth, not including Yun Yi Shopping Network.
On the surface, the richest man in the world was America's Mr. Fran, who had a huge fortune of 380 billion USD. Xiao Yunhai only used three years to catch up with him.
The entertainment industry in this world was indeed very developed.
Xiao Yunhai was only joking when he said that he wanted to be the richest man. Now that he heard that he had 200 billion USD in assets, he suddenly realized that his goal was not impossible.
Zhao Wanqing said, "Hubby, if Yun Yi Shopping Network is as promising as you say, maybe you'll become the richest man in the world in the near future."
Xiao Yunhai suddenly felt dispirited and said, "So what if I become the richest man in the world? It's just a nice name at most. It doesn't mean much in reality."
Zhao Wanqing smiled. "Hubby, it's great that you think that way. Right, what do you plan to do with Marvel Comics? "
"Since we have so much money, of course we'll buy it," Xiao Yunhai said. "To be honest, I don't care about Marvel. What interests me is the American superheroes they created. If they're made into a movie, it'll definitely be a hit. "
Zhao Wanqing said, "You'll have to deal with the bank. I'll get Daniel to gather some information about Marvel for you."
Xiao Yunhai nodded. "Alright, we'll do that. Right, there's something else I need to tell you. I need two billion Hua Xia dollars to promote Yun Yi Shopping Network. "
"Two billion?" Zhao Wanqing said in a shocked tone, "Aren't you a little too crazy?"
Xiao Yunhai said, "We can't catch the wolf without risking the child. According to our plan, Yun Yi Shopping Network's annual profit will be at least 10 billion USD in less than two years. A mere two billion is nothing at all. "
Zhao Wanqing sighed. "I hope it'll be as you wish."
Zhao Wanqing was not optimistic about Yun Yi Shopping Network but since it was her husband's decision, she called the bank and asked them to prepare a two-billion check for Xiao Yunhai.
