Chapter 399: My Movie

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio  Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Young Master Wang was very happy, but he still ignored Chen Xi and continued to focus on the system.

The third big change was in the experience points.

[0/300,000]

It was a beautiful round number, a little lower than expected.

Breathing wages had increased by a lot, but the number of experience points needed did not increase by five times. The difficulty of upgrading had dropped drastically.

Based on an annual salary of 430 million, one would be able to level up in seven years.

Ugh… the difficulty really dropped drastically.

The Young Master pursed his lips, feeling that the future was bleak.

How was he going to level up to Level 11?

Investment profits had begun to become important if he did not want to waste seven years.

..

The last change was extremely huge and very special.

The mall was upgraded.

[ The mall has been changed to refresh on the first of every month. Products can be kept for a full natural month at most, and the lowest quality will be an intermediate product. There is a lower chance of an advanced product being refreshed. ]

Just this one sentence made Wang Yan ponder for a long time.

Judging from the frequently appearing intermediate Euro-African Roulette, the starting price of an intermediate product was five million, and the upper limit was very high.

It was a good thing for goods to become more expensive, but it would be bad news if it would take longer for the mall to refresh.

A month was a month. Whether or not the product was useful, he would have to wait until the next month for a new product. It was uncomfortable.

However, the current one item in the mall was very likely to be more useful than the previous four. Once a high-tier item appeared… it would be great!

Overall, there were pros and cons. It was a change that was quite suitable for the value of the system. It was not Wang Yan’s value, but the value of a broken system.

A Level 10 system was already extremely powerful.

Just by looking at the exaggerated breathing wages, if he met a host with no ambition, he could be comfortably salted for the rest of his life.

1.18 million a day, how could he spend it?

No, how would he launder it?

Wang Yan could not help but feel lucky that he had arranged it early enough.

Now, the stall of Wangting Entertainment had just opened. Everything was ready, so the pressure to launder all the money was not big.

If they hadn’t seized those opportunities back then, they would be in trouble now.

Glancing at the cash, there were more than 13.5 million in the system and 20 million in the Minsheng bank card.

Moreover, the system’s figure just kept jumping.

+ 2,150, + 1,850, + 1,500…

Eh?

It was rising very quickly!

Wang Yan remembered the effect of the service card: the more satisfied Chen Xi was, the higher the critical chance multiplier.

So what was going on with this girl?

Massaging her brother and making it fun?

Young Master Wang diverted some of his attention to Chen Xi and heard her wheezing.

She was putting in a lot of effort.

Not bad, she should be encouraged!

So Wang Yan placed his long legs on the desk and said gently, “Not bad, you’re doing great. Now massage my legs.”

Chen Xi blushed and replied softly, “This posture of yours… Why don’t you go lie down on the sofa?”

Oh, you are so smart.

“Okay! Thank you!”

Wang Yan followed his advice and moved to the guest area, lying down on the sofa like a boss.

Chen Xi was inexplicably excited.

She shouldn’t have done it, but she couldn’t control herself.

Gradually, her thoughts started to sink in.

In any case, don’t be rough with me. Everything else is negotiable.

She was the Young Master’s personal secretary after all, and they had been together for a long time. She couldn’t hide, nor did she want to.

It wasn’t easy for her to establish a relationship with a top young master. She had to face the difficulties head-on.

Otherwise, why not just transfer to another post?

She could satisfy the Young Master with just a bit of effort. Wasn’t it much better than the relationship between Sister Bai and Wang Yufei, where there was no follow-up after the flight?

In any case, he couldn’t give her his body, so it was worth it to exchange the other small benefits for a good impression.

After all… Wang Yan was handsome enough.

Her thoughts were complicated, but the foundation was — he didn’t hate Wang Yan, and even had a good impression of him.

Appearance + Temperament + Wealth = Aphrodisiac

The formula was basically established.

There were only two girls who didn’t fall for Wang Yan’s trick — Gong Feiyu and He Miaomiao for the time being.

Chen Xi did not have the capacity to make an exception.

..

While enjoying himself, Wang Yan turned his gaze to the inventory.

Four old cards and two new items.

There were still two more chances to use the transcendent badass card, and they were Song Huizong and Zhang Daoling.

There was no chance to use the two-sided gourmet card.

The all-inclusive free card was already useless.

The wine tasting card expires on September 23rd, Year 16, and it was still early.

When he was drinking at the camping camp the day before yesterday, a new card appeared —

[ Flying alcohol ]

[ One-time card ]

[ If you drink too much on the same stage, you will definitely fly ]

[ Requirements: Plural opposite sex, Favorability 80+%, Alcohol up to 7 points, One crazy scene. ]

When he first saw this card, Wang Yan shivered.

A crazy scene flashed in his mind —

Uh, no, I can’t think about it!

In short, this was a godly card, so godly that even Young Master Wang didn’t dare to think about it for the time being.

The key point being for the time being!

The timing wasn’t right.

Save it, keep it at the bottom of the pile!

The small card officially replaced [ Extraordinary acting ] and became the ultimate weapon in Wang Yan’s collection.

The last item was a new item that appeared in the mall on Monday.

It was a very interesting item.

[ Building blueprint intelligent production platform ]

[ One-time special item ]

[ Price: 1,000,000]

[ Effect: according to your request, produce one or a set of blueprints ]

[ Note 1: Blueprints are limited to buildings and decorations. They can not be high-tech creations ]

[ Note 2: Producing blueprints require corresponding funds. The more detailed, complex, and high-level the blueprints are, the greater the fund consumption. ]

[ Note 3: You can inquire about or confirm the design fee in advance. ]

The first thing Wang Yan thought of when he saw this new prop was his own manor.

Since the purchase fee was very cheap, he didn’t hesitate and bought it on the spot.

Then, Wang Yan immediately inquired about it.

30,000 square meters, built against the mountain, top-tier design, and modern fashion style. The cost of the entire set of blueprints was… 120 million.

At that time, the price shocked him.

F*ck, do you have to be so expensive?

Can’t afford it, can’t afford it.

Master Wang gave up dejectedly and then asked a friend for a similar design quote.

In China, the design quote for a large manor basically starts from a million, and it follows the building price ratio.

The most expensive production studio will probably cost 20 million.

Overseas, several top firms, including Steven Holl, will probably quote more than $10 million — in dollars, euros, or pounds.

Of course, the final price can be negotiated.

For such a big project, bidding is extremely important, and the production may be slow as a result.

After understanding the whole process, Wang Yan realized that the system drawing and the top-level design is much more expensive than the building itself.

The domestic design price is less than one-fifth of the system itself.

The foreign design studio asks for a serious premium, but it is not necessarily more expensive than the system drawing.

However, in the real world studio, the drawing cycle is calculated in half a year.

The system drawing is done extremely fast.

In the final product, it is difficult to say which is better, but Wang Yan has more confidence in the system.

So, if nothing went wrong, the overall design of the manor should be the product of the system.

But where the f*ck does he get the money?

This broken prop was a one-time use, and Wang Yan was not allowed to build it up piece by piece.

If he wanted to buy it, he had to buy the whole set.

It had clearly been upgraded, and breathing wages had skyrocketed. Why did it feel like he was getting poorer?

What a pain in the ass!

He was unable to fork out that amount of money in a short period of time. Wang Yan could only put aside the matter of building the manor for the time being.

In any case, he had to build the road first, then cultivate the land, and then start planting. The manor could still be delayed for another half a year.

With the system around, anything was possible. He would just have to wait and see.

After rearranging the props, Young Master Wang felt normal again.

Everything in Wangting Entertainment was on the right track and thriving.

There was no need to worry about the loan. There was Chu Hong and Chen Xi.

The basketball team had already been sent home by Gong Feiyu’s team. There was only the final exam left at school.

There was no need to worry about anything at home. He would send another 10 million yuan to his biological father and let his uncle deal with him.

Then, what should he do now?

Wang Yan could not help but turn his gaze to Chen Xi.

The uniform was still ugly, but even in such a uniform that did not show off her figure, she was still trembling.

Her hair was trembling, don’t make wild guesses.

One look, then another, then another… her heart fluttered.

Chen Xi’s face suddenly turned red, and her hands were trembling.

Just as the atmosphere became ambiguous and dangerous, Li Yixu suddenly called.

“Young Master Wang, are you at the company?”

Young Master Li’s voice carried a rare hint of excitement. It was rare to see him so unable to control his emotions, and a guess flashed through Wang Yan’s mind.

“Yes, why?”

“Then wait for me. Let’s go over and talk!”

Well, it was basically confirmed.

Young Master Wang felt a little regretful. He had been idle for less than a minute, and now he had work again.

At the same time, he was very excited. The Witch movie project that he had high hopes for could finally be officially pushed forward.

Well, an awesome life was always busy. In order to not let down Big Brother Xiong who was still waiting, he started to get down to business!

..

Li Yixu arrived very quickly. Wang Yan mercilessly chased Chen Xi away.

For more than an hour, the additional cash he got was more than three million. It was nothing to the inflated Wang Yan.

On the other hand, Chen Xi’s mentality had changed greatly, but Wang Yan did not realize it.

Because his mind was not on her at all. No, no, no, no, no, she did not have any special advantages and was not worth paying too much attention to.

Many people have pursued her.

Many men treated her as a goddess.

What does that have to do with me?

In this day and age, gods and goddesses were not worth much.

If she could film “The Witch” well and become the new generation’s goddess of the nation, then she would be able to show off her skills.

As expected, Li Yixu was here to communicate and set up a project.

“Young Master Wang, Yida Films and Zhongying Digital are both very interested in the book. This movie will definitely succeed!”

Wang Yan’s spirits were lifted. “Oh? How was it done?”

Li Yixu was very methodical in handling matters, especially in terms of interpersonal communication.

Young Master Wang listened to the entire process and confirmed the details once again.

Young Master Li First had a sincere discussion with An Xiaofang, expressing his willingness to participate.

An Xiaofang had naturally expected this, but she did not expect Li Yixu to be so firm.

He was simply siding with Wang Yan, sacrificing his own interests and charging into the battle.

An Xiaofang was confused. Li Yixu had broken down Wang Yan’s achievements and gave them to An Xiaofang. He even used Wang Siming as an example to prove Wang Yan’s talent.

In the end, he even used his uncle to play the emotional card.

An Xiaofang was convinced.

She had to be convinced. With Li Yixu around, she had to either give up the project and watch coldly from the sidelines, or she could stand by Wang Yan’s side and earn the money she could earn.

She was already very optimistic about this project. She had confidence in her own vision and ability.

The only concern was Wang Yan’s age and ability.

Now that her worries had been dispelled and her confidence had been strengthened, she could do it.

Li Yixu settled the matter with An Xiaofang, a top producer, and then went to look for Yida Films and Zhongying Digital.

The relevant people in charge of the two companies had a close relationship with Young Master Li.

When they saw that An Xiaofang was working hard and had sufficient funds, they decided to invest!

There was no reason to push away a good thing that had came to their doorstep.

The two big shots knew what was going on in their hearts. They knew why the other party had taken the initiative to look for them, so they readily agreed to the arrangement of the film.

Moreover, they did not have any intention of competing for power. They just wanted to invest more.

Therefore, the current situation was that the five investors had achieved a consensus on the general direction of the film. Only the details needed to be discussed.

The first draft of the cooperation that Li Yixu had brought out was as follows:

The five companies would jointly produce. Wangting Entertainment would be the main investor, while the other four companies would follow.

An Xiaofang’s Dasheng Media would be the main distributor, while Yida Films and Zhongying Digital would be joint distributors.

The total cost was tentatively set at 100 million, including production, distribution, marketing, publicity, and all other costs.

Wangting Entertainment contributed 50 million, accounting for 60% of all revenue, and had the right to decide the female lead, the male lead, the second male lead, the second female lead, and the third female lead.

Li Yixu contributed 15 million, accounting for 10% of all revenue, and was named the third producer.

Dasheng Media contributed 15 million yuan, which was 10% of the total revenue. They were responsible for the distribution and charged 10 million yuan for the distribution fee.

Yida Films and Zhongying Digital each contributed 10 million yuan, which was 10% of the total revenue. They helped with the distribution and publicity and promised to arrange the films for the first three days of release.

There was a reason why Wang Yan took so much revenue.

First, the copyright of the script was in his hands, and there was already a cost for this.

Secondly, because the level of detail in the script was basically equivalent to an excellent film that was half-finished, one could see the final effect at a glance.

A normal script could not be so detailed.

The second creation was the director’s job.

A normal screenwriter did not have that level of skill. They could finish the director’s composition, martial arts fighting, and the texture of the special effects.

The script that Wang Yan took out wasn’t orthodox. It was more like a director’s Guide to filming.

To put it bluntly, meddlesome.

But Wang Yan wasn’t just a screenwriter, he was also an investor. He was the father of a rich man. Who would dare to object?

In any case, the investors liked it. They could directly imagine the scene.

This was the reason they gave in so easily. It was a good movie that could be seen with the naked eye. The possibility of it failing was too low.

Therefore, Dacheng Media, Yida Films, and Zhongying Digital were not at a disadvantage.

Dacheng Media only had to fork out 5 million yuan to get 10% of the profits. In the process of distribution, no matter how much outsiders supervised it, they could still earn some profit. It was very lucrative.

Both Yida Films and Zhongying Digital needed good movies to fill the cinemas. A portion of the distribution fee was left-handed and right-handed. It was also very lucrative.

The only one who lost was Li Yixu, but he was willing to do it.

That was easy.

The three families had no objections. Wang Yan thought about it and felt that it was more important to push the project forward quickly. The remaining small profits were not worth fighting for.

Anyway, the copyright of the sequel was in the hands of his family. If he wanted to continue playing, he was still in charge of everyone. What was there to be afraid of?

Hence, he nodded in agreement.

Li Yixu was extremely excited. He slapped his thigh and said, “Sign the project tomorrow afternoon and start setting up the team the day after tomorrow. Young Master Wang, I can’t wait to start on this big project!”

Wang Yan was originally quite calm, but after being fiddled with by Li Yixu, he also became excited.

These two words were enough to describe his mood —

My Movie!
