The foundations that bought the dividend shares of "Grey Ghost of the Pacific" were very happy. They immediately followed the example of the America First Foundation. They split the dividend shares and sold them at a price of 3 US dollars.
Because these financial products were essentially the same as the financial products sold by the America First Foundation, there was no need to worry about sales at all. They were all sold out in the blink of an eye, which made the foundations very happy.
Although they were not as exaggerated as the America First Foundation's 100% profit, they could still make a 50% profit. This was definitely an amazing highlight in the current financial report.
Moreover, many foundations began to think. Since "Grey Ghost of the Pacific" could be done in this way, could other films follow suit and create a financial innovation and launch a film fund?
Soon, some foundations joined forces with some other film companies to launch a similar film fund.
However, the result was completely different from the results of the "Grey Ghost of the Pacific" Film Fund. After a long time, it was difficult to sell a few shares.
After all, the success of the "Grey Ghost of the Pacific" Film Fund could not be replicated in a short period of time. They did not have the support of the America First Foundation's second round of success. The shareholders would not be deceived by these things.
However, these foundation companies were not discouraged, because they knew that failure was only temporary. Whether this new film fund could be recognized by the market depended on whether the America First Foundation's "Grey Ghost of the Pacific" Film Fund could make all the buyers make money.
Once it was successful, the future was promising!
Therefore, for a while, almost all of Wall Street hoped that "Grey Ghost of the Pacific" would be a success. In this way, other foundations on Wall Street could immediately launch a variety of film funds and crazily harvest leeks in the financial market.
The various film companies were also very much looking forward to this, because once this model was successful, all the future blockbusters of the various film companies seemed to be packaged and sold as film funds.
In this way, no matter how the box office of the film was in the future, the film companies would definitely not lose money. After all, they had announced to the public that they had raised a production fund of 100 million US dollars.
However, only God knew how much of the money was actually invested in the film. In any case, the film companies would definitely make a profit and not lose money.
When a movie was looked forward to by both Wall Street and Hollywood, then success was basically inevitable.
Although a lot of things happened at the film festival, the audience was most concerned about the grand occasion and the outcome of the Golden Dragon Award Ceremony.
On the last day of the film festival, everything went according to schedule. The Golden Dragon Award Ceremony began.
It was also different from last year. Other than a few international movie stars, the people who came to support the red carpet last year were all local celebrities from Hua Xia. It was hard to associate them with the word international.
But this time, the first to take the stage was Will Smith. He clearly won the most Golden Dragon Awards last year, but he was nicknamed the biggest loser. This year, he was actually the first to take the stage and lead the way to the Golden Dragon Awards.
After that, it was time for all the fans and reporters to scream. The celebrities from Hua Xia and the top international celebrities appeared one after another.
Tom Hanks, Tom Sezemore, Matt Damon, Van Diesel, Michael Bay, Bruce Willis, Ben Affleck, Liv Tyler …
Almost half of the top Hollywood stars appeared on the red carpet. The crew of "Saving Private Ryan" and "The Unparalleled Disaster" also made an appearance.
Even Spielberg was the last to enter, but he was accompanied by Cameron and Boss Jia. The three of them appeared together at the end, raising the atmosphere of the entire red carpet to the climax.
Purely from the quality of the guests who came to the ceremony, the Golden Dragon Award Ceremony was comparable to the Oscars.
However, when the ceremony officially began, it was a pity that Boss Jia, who dominated the scene last year, had withdrawn from the host position this year.
After all, it was unrealistic to expect the world's top tycoon to be the host of a film festival every time. After all, he was not the king of knowledge.
However, this year's host guest was not much worse. It was Brother Long, who was already a little famous in Hollywood, paired with the world's most famous singer and actress, Madonna Ciccone.
This era was the peak of Madonna's popularity and appearance. As soon as she went on stage, the audience naturally cheered.
"Dear guests and viewers in front of the TV, welcome to the Golden Dragon Award Ceremony after a year!" Brother Long said in slightly unstandard Mandarin, and repeated the words in English with Madonna beside him.
Just like Brother Long and Madonna, who were a combination of Chinese and Western hosts, the host used a combination of Chinese and English.
Although many people suggested that Boss Jia should host in English throughout the whole process, after all, most of the audience were foreigners who couldn't understand Chinese.
However, Boss Jia refused and insisted that Brother Long had to speak Chinese. At most, he would ask the TV station to add English subtitles. He had to hear Chinese voices on the stage of the Golden Dragon Award Ceremony. Otherwise, the Golden Dragon Award Ceremony would be meaningless.
As long as they persisted, after a few decades, the world would tacitly agree that Chinese was on the same level as English. That would be enough.
"Last year, we received a total of 371,540,060 votes. This year, how many votes will we get from the general public?" Madonna said in an excited voice. Then, the stage behind her opened again.
However, unlike the last time when only one truck carried the ballots, this time, there were two trucks carrying two transparent glass boxes of the same size. This meant that the number of ballots had at least doubled.
Sure enough, under everyone's expectant eyes, Madonna announced the final result. This year, the Golden Dragon Award Ceremony received a total of 736,218,432 votes, which was almost double the result of last year.
It seemed that the influence of the Golden Dragon Award Ceremony last year was obvious. It almost doubled the number of people who went to the cinema to vote.
After the two hosts exchanged some pleasantries and made some opening remarks, the first award, which was the most obvious award of the Golden Dragon Award Ceremony, was presented.
"Let's give a round of applause to the movie 'The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring,' which won the 1998 Most Commercially Valuable Movie Award!" Jackie Chan announced the obvious answer loudly.
The final global box office of 'The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring' was fixed at 890 million USD, which was almost 300 million USD ahead of the second place 'Saving Private Ryan'. Therefore, there was no suspense to this award. The excited crew of 'The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring took the pure gold trophy and the 10 million USD prize!
Yes, that's right. This year's prize was still 10 million USD.
