Fifty thousand dollars was the annual income of an ordinary employee in some small and medium-sized special effects companies. But in Magic City, it was only a bonus. If the bonus and monthly salary were added, everyone could get more than two hundred thousand dollars. Who knew how many people would be envious if this was spread out.
Xiao Yunhai drove to the headquarters of Marvel Comics. Raúl, who had already received the news, was already waiting at the door.
Seeing Xiao Yunhai's car slowly drive in, Raúl quickly went up and respectfully opened the door for Xiao Yunhai.
Xiao Yunhai got out of the car and looked at him. He smiled and said, "Raúl, you seem to be in a good mood."
Raúl's rigid face showed a smile and said, "Boss, our 'Transformers' is popular all over the world. How can I not be happy?"
Xiao Yunhai said, "Then I'll make you happy again. The second 'Transformers' comic is estimated to be completed in half a month. Let the animation department prepare to make the animation."
Raúl said excitedly, "Okay, boss. I'll give the order."
The two walked into the company one after the other. Xiao Yunhai first looked around and saw that everyone was busy. He couldn't help but nod with satisfaction.
When they came to Xiao Yunhai's luxurious office, Raúl made a cameo appearance as the secretary and made a cup of tea for Xiao Yunhai.
The two sat on the sofa together. Xiao Yunhai said, "Raúl, tell me about the company's recent situation."
Raúl agreed. He took out the financial statements that he had prepared long ago from his briefcase and handed them to Xiao Yunhai. Then, he told Xiao Yunhai about the recent situation from beginning to end.
First of all, the success of 'Transformers' allowed Marvel Comics to re-enter the eyes of the Western public. Of course, it also made them a lot of money.
Excluding Hua Xia, the manga sold a total of 73.62 million copies worldwide, earning a total of 560 million USD. Twenty-two million sets of toys were sold, and the profit reached a terrifying 2.63 billion USD.
Moreover, the ratings for the cartoon in Europe and the United States were astonishing, earning 430 million USD. However, this was only the first round of broadcast rights. Other than the United States, which had already broadcast two rounds, the other countries' television stations had not received the second round of broadcast rights.
When these TV stations came to discuss the price, Xiao Yunhai would naturally put his attention on their advertising fees. When the time came, one could imagine how great the income would be.
When Xiao Yunhai took over the company, he had asked the comic department to organize a comic creativity competition, which had ended successfully. After a heated discussion, a total of six good comic book copyrights were purchased. It probably wouldn't be long before he could meet the children.
There was also the animation department, which was nervously producing the animated movie 'Kung Fu Panda' that Xiao Yunhai gave them. For this reason, Xiao Yunhai also specially asked his senior brother Luo Tianxiong to find two very good action directors from the Luo Family Troupe to design the actions for the animals. Of course, the salary was not low. One hundred thousand USD per person, so both of them worked very hard.
Needless to say, the toy factory was very busy just making the Transformers toys.
As for Marvel Kids Land, there was also good news. Xiao Yunhai asked them to renovate the park. After passing the inspection test by the relevant departments in the United States, it had been put into operation a month ago.
The average number of parents and children received every day was 5,000, and the profit was about 800,000 USD. In a month, it was 24 million USD. This was only the income brought by two children's parks, one big and one small. If there were 20 or 200 parks, the profit would be too terrifying.
After listening to Raúl's description, Xiao Yunhai found that the company's situation was far better than he expected. He couldn't help but nod with satisfaction and said, "Raúl, you have done very well. Let's talk about the next step."
Raúl said, "Boss, when the manager of Marvel Kids Land, Randi, handed in the monthly report, he also brought a written application. He hopes that the company can allocate funds to continue renovating other children's parks."
Xiao Yunhai asked, "What do you think?"
Raúl said, "I think we should support it. We have a total of 20 children's parks ordered by the government to be renovated. If they can be put into operation, it will become a new source of profit for the company. "
Xiao Yunhai nodded and said, "I think so too."
The two Marvel Kids Land had been operating for a month, and it had brought more than 20 million USD to Xiao Yunhai. And this was just the beginning. It would definitely be more popular in the future. If the other 20 Marvel Kids Land were operating at the same time, it shouldn't be difficult to achieve a monthly profit of 200 million USD.
Xiao Yunhai asked, "How much money would it take to renovate all the other 20 children's parks?"
Raúl said, "It would cost at least 5 billion USD to renovate them into the current state of the two children's parks."
Xiao Yunhai narrowed his eyes and said, "Let's do it. You tell Randi to renovate all the 20 children's parks. Remember, the most important thing is to ensure the safety of the children's parks. The people who go there to play are basically children. We can't be the executioner who hurts children just to make money. For this reason, even if we have to spend a billion USD, we must ensure that they are 100% safe. "
Raúl's eyes flashed with a trace of appreciation and said, "Boss, you are really a good person. I will tell Randi everything you said word for word. "
Xiao Yunhai nodded and asked, "How much money can the company take out?"
Raúl said, "The most we can take out is 3 billion USD under the premise of ensuring the company's normal operations."
Xiao Yunhai said, "How about this, the company will take out 2.5 billion USD, and I will personally take out 3.5 billion USD and give it to Randi."
Raúl said in surprise, "Boss, this is 6 billion USD. We don't need so much money."
Xiao Yunhai waved his hand and said, "The extra 1 billion USD is because I don't want Andy to have any problems with safety in order to save money. Tell him that he can't spend a single cent less on safety. "
Raúl said, "I understand, Boss. After the renovation of the children's parks is completed, I will personally take people to inspect each and every one of the children's parks to ensure that there are no problems with safety. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "Is there anything else?"
Raúl said, "The toy factory sent an application. Their machines are already very old, and they want to change to a new production line. They need 300 million USD. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "Okay."
"The comic department …"
Half an hour later, Xiao Yunhai and Raúl finished discussing the big and small matters of the company.
Xiao Yunhai took a sip of tea, stood up and said, "Okay, Raúl, write a report according to the content of our conversation and send it to my computer email. If there is nothing else, I will go back. There are still many people at home. "
Raúl said, "Boss, I heard that there is a problem behind the Oscars this time. It seems that many companies have done a lot of work behind the scenes. You see, do you want me to look for … "
Xiao Yunhai raised his hand to interrupt Raúl and said, "Let them be. To me, the awards are not important. I don't care at all, not to mention the awards that I got through the back door. "
Raúl nodded. It was the first time he saw Xiao Yunhai's arrogance.
Before getting into the car, Xiao Yunhai suddenly thought of something and said, "Raúl, since the company is doing so well, don't treat the employees badly. Let the finance department take out 50 million USD as a bonus to reward them."
Raúl said, "Boss, you are too generous. I think they will go crazy when they hear this news. "
Xiao Yunhai smiled and got into the car.
After a while, there was a huge cheer in the Marvel Comics building.
