America's Road to Fame

Chapter 27 Repayment of Loans
Uh, it turned out to be a movie, which William Chen didn't expect.However, he had heard of the movie "Magic Mike" in his previous life, but as a straight man, he had no feeling for this kind of movie about gigolos that seemed to sell meat.

But it seems that many women like this movie very much. Looking at the introduction, the box office of this movie is not bad.

It's just that he also knows that the global box office is 1.67 million, and the producer can only share a part of it. The specific amount of distribution depends on the actual situation.

Because the United States is different from the situation in Huaguo. Unlike the domestic box office share in Huaguo, which is a fixed ratio, the box office share of American producers is divided step by step according to the screening time. Generally speaking, the longer the film’s screening time , the higher the share of the theater chain will be, which will help the theater chain of high-quality films to be willing to extend the screening, because the later they go, the higher the share of the box office will be.

And not to mention that there will be a share from the distributor at that time, so it is relatively normal for the producer to get 35-40% of the final local box office, and sometimes even less.

As for the overseas box office, it depends on the agreement with overseas countries. Some will be directly bought out, and some will be shared, but the overseas share is even lower, because there are still partners who have to share the money with the theater chain. After all, It's at the opponent's home court, so it's definitely impossible to get the big head.

Now William Chen has not decided whether to make this work.If you want to make this movie, it is actually very simple. In this item column [Magic Mike] is the complete movie video.Chen William can completely shoot a movie based on this movie video, and I believe the finished product will achieve a similar box office.However, William Chen had never seen this movie in his previous life, and he planned to wait until after watching the movie before making a decision.

William Chen put this matter aside for the time being. He, Ivanta, sent a message. The two agreed on a time for a morning run together, and he put on his sportswear and went out.

"William, I heard Garrett say that he has acquired 666% of the shares in Building 40.00. Is this true?"

Ivanta first asked this question after the meeting.As for Ivanta being able to know about this matter, William Chen is not surprised at all. After all, this may be the thing Jared is most proud of recently, and it is impossible for him not to show off in front of Ivanta.

"Yes, I did get a call from the trust fund that bought my shares in Building 666, knowing that Garrett was going to buy their shares with the overall valuation of the building at $20 billion. Now it seems that Garrett is very smart , He made the move to buy the "New York Observer", more seems to want to raise the price for me, let me consume funds, unable to attack his purchase of shares in the building." William Chen said with a smile.

"You don't seem to care that much about this matter, William." When Ivanta heard the news, Ivanta was still a little worried about Chen William's state, but now it seems that he has not been greatly affected .

"Because to be honest, Ivanta, I'm not optimistic about Garrett's deal. If it were me, I wouldn't choose to buy the property at this time."

William Chen's words came as a surprise to Ivanta. She looked at him in surprise and asked, "What do you mean?"

"This topic is a bit long, let's go for a run first, Ivanta." At this time, they had already walked into the Central Park, William Chen said to Ivanta with a calm expression.At this time, Ivanta could only temporarily put the question in his heart and run with him first.

When the two of them finished running and started to walk back, Ivanta finally couldn't bear the doubt in his heart and asked aloud, "William, what did you mean just now?"

"Haha, Ivanta, you're a little impatient." After William Chen finished speaking, seeing Ivanta looking at him with coquettish eyes, he continued:

"It's very simple, because I am not optimistic about the real estate market in the past two years. Yes, in the past few years, the real estate market has been very hot, and housing prices have also been rising steadily. Therefore, more and more people have begun to invest in real estate. Continue to It has pushed up housing prices. But you should understand that this situation is difficult to last forever, there is no market that will rise forever, and when everyone thinks that it will continue to rise, a crisis is brewing."

"Yes, William, since two or three years ago, there have been voices of such pessimism in the market, but in fact, this kind of worry has been proved to be mediocre, and the real estate is still booming, even if there is a bubble Existence, and most likely benign, will be dissipated as the economy develops."

Ivanta still doesn't quite believe Chen William's alarmist talk. After all, their Trump family is also mainly engaged in the real estate industry, and they know a lot about these situations.

In this regard, William Chen didn't need to explain too much to her.Just like himself, without the confirmation of the eyes of the future, he would not dare to say that he really believed that the subprime mortgage crisis would break out. Even if he had such experience and memory in his previous life, it would be easy for him to make an accurate prediction in advance. It is very difficult, and it needs to be peeled off and have a strong insight.

So William Chen just shrugged and didn't say much to her.It is enough to mention it to her now and plant a seed in Ivanta's heart, and he is not going to really convince her that the subprime mortgage crisis will break out to avoid too many variables.

Today is July 7th. After the morning passed, Joss had completed the task of clearing the stocks, and the result was better than he expected, because the current stock market is still hot. After the liquidation, the stocks held by William Chen were sold. After paying a price of more than 29 million U.S. dollars, after deducting capital gains taxes, he has more than 6.35 million U.S. dollars left in his account.

This time, the investment in the stock market did not rely on the reminder from the Eye of the Future, and Chen William obtained more than 1 million US dollars in income. Although the income was far less than those who confirmed the news, Chen William was still very satisfied with this.

"I will transfer money to your account right away. This cooperation is very pleasant, Joss." Chen William shook hands with Joss and said.

"We are also very honored to serve you, Mr. William, if you still need it, you can contact us." Joss is also very satisfied with this cooperation, which can be said to be a good income for them.

"I have a proposal, Joss, I hope to hire your team, not this kind of short-term employment, but let you become the management team of my investment company. I will give you a basic annual salary of 50 US dollars, and the team members A basic annual salary of 20 US dollars, and then according to the income of each trade, there will be corresponding bonuses. I don’t know what you want?”

After this cooperation, William Chen is quite satisfied with Joss' team.His Meta investment company is still an empty shell, and he also hopes to have his own trading team. Joss' team is more suitable at present.

If we can talk about their income, on the one hand, it can make the operation of each investment more stable, and there is no need to run in every time; the most important thing is to become an employee of William Chen, which will also allow him to have more trust in the team , making his investment more convenient and confidential, so that it will not be leaked out.

Moreover, the salary Chen William gave to Joss's team was considered a good income on Wall Street.Don't look at their team's monthly employment cost of 20, and there are bonuses.

But as this kind of independent trading team, it doesn’t mean that they can find employers 12 months a year. They often just eat and eat, so their income is not stable. Salary, not to mention every time they trade, they can get bonuses based on their profits. In William Chen's case, the bonuses they can get will definitely be several times their annual salary.

Joss was still a little moved by William Chen's offer. He said, "Mr. William, thank you for your affirmation, but I need to discuss it with the team, is that okay?"

"Of course, but I will invest again soon, so I hope to get your answer before tomorrow morning, is that okay?"

"no problem."

William Chen previously had a loan of US$1 million from Future Bank, so after the funds arrived, he first repaid the loan.Every time the quota is used up and the loan is repaid, the future bank will adjust the quota according to William Chen's investment situation.This time William Chen's loan amount was adjusted to 1.5 million.

At present, he does not know the specific basis for this adjustment. After Chen William’s future bank binding partner is Paris, the initial amount is 0.5 million. After the first loan and investment, the amount is adjusted to 1 million. ; this time adjusted to 1.5 million.

Since the number of quota adjustments he has experienced is too small, he is still not sure whether it is under normal circumstances, as long as the standard is reached, the amount will be increased by 0.5 million each time; Average performance, so only a 50% increase.

These still need to be summed up after he adjusts the amount a few more times in the future, but he is still satisfied with the amount of 1.5 million US dollars. After all, it is a loan with no interest and no deadline. Everything is easy to say.

Previously, Chen William’s personal account had more than 2500 million US dollars in funds, but after the acquisition of the "New York Observer", plus the capital injection of 500 million to the newspaper, and daily expenses, there are still more than 900 million US dollars left. Then he paid the employment fee of Joss' team and the 300 million bonus, leaving less than 600 million US dollars.

But now there are more than 5 million US dollars left in the account, and his funds have become more abundant, 5.06 million US dollars, this series of numbers really makes people feel happy.

"Uncle Tom, my funds have arrived. You can notify the Bank of New York and prepare to repay their loans. The property mortgage and the $666 million loan due this month on Building 5000 can begin to be deducted from my account. .”

In the past two days, William Chen notified Tom to immediately return the two loans from the Bank of New York, so that his real estate would be released from mortgage status, and his total loan amount on Building 666 would also be reduced to about 6.5 million.

"That's great, William. I'll notify them right away. In fact, I'd rather go to inform them myself. I really want to see the expressions on their faces when they hear the news." From Tom's tone, he could already tell his current state of mind. The mood is very good, William Chen can already imagine the smile on his face.
