Rebirth of the Entertainment Master

Li Rong gritted her teeth tightly, and shot her gaze at Xiao Yunhai like a knife, saying: "Okay, I have yours."
Li Rong took out her mobile phone and called her husband Tian Jishang.
After explaining the situation, Li Rong handed the phone to Xiao Yunhai.
Tian Jishang said: "Mr. Xiao, good method."
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said: "Thank you for the compliment, and I also want to thank your son for his help."
Tian Jishang snorted, and said coldly: "A special meeting will be held tomorrow morning. At that time, I will support your uncle."
Xiao Yunhai said: "Then let's talk about it after it's confirmed. I'm sorry, but I can only let your son stay inside for a little longer."
Tian Jishang said: "You don't believe me?"
Xiao Yunhai didn't save him any face, and said directly: "Of course I don't believe it."
There was silence on the phone for a long time before Tian Jishang said: "Xiao Yunhai, I hope you won't fall into my hands in the future."
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Thank you for reminding me. I will be very careful, and I promise I won't be as stupid as Young Master Tian."
Before finishing speaking, Tian Jishang hung up the phone.
"Such a big official is too unmannered."
Xiao Yunhai complained, and said to the impatient Li Rong: "Congratulations, your husband has already agreed. As long as there is news that my uncle will be the director of the station tomorrow, I will keep my promise. By the way, you need to call me for the money." come over."
Li Rong didn't say anything, just looked at him coldly for ten seconds, as if wanting to remember him, his knife-like eyes were full of resentment.
Seeing Li Rong's expression of wanting to cut himself into pieces, Xiao Yunhai suddenly laughed, and said, "Aunt Li, is it interesting for us to stare like this? If there is any trick in the future, just use it, I will Xiao Yunhai will follow."
Li Rong picked up the bag and said coldly: "You wait, I will never let you go."
Chapter 511 Sales are gratifying
After Li Rong left angrily, Xiao Yunhai called Kerry and Jesse respectively, asking them to get together at night.
When the two heard it, they naturally had no objection.
At six o'clock in the afternoon, Xiao Yunhai came to the French restaurant where he treated guests for the first time, and found that Kerry and Jesse had already arrived and were eating there.
After Xiao Yunhai sat down, he laughed and scolded: "It seems that the two aristocrats don't learn etiquette very well. The master didn't come, so he ate first. This is too rude."
Kerry chuckled, and said, "Using your Huaxia words, we are our own people, so why are our own people and our own people so polite?"
Jesse at the side took a sip of the red wine beautifully, with a satisfied look on his face, he said, "The Lafite in 82 is just extraordinary."
Xiao Yunhai's expression changed, he pointed to the bottle of red wine, and asked, "Is this Lafite from [-]? The authentic one?"
Jessie said: "I dare to guarantee everything I have. This is definitely a pure 82-year-old Lafite, which is completely different from the ones on the market. A bottle of [-] dollars is really worth it."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yunhai asked with a smile: "Both of you, who are you planning to treat today?"
Kerry and Jesse looked at each other, pointed at Xiao Yunhai at the same time, and said, "Of course it's you."
Xiao Yunhai sighed: "You two are really ruthless. Kerry, hurry up and pour me a glass. Although I never like to drink red wine, I have to taste such an expensive thing no matter what."
Kerry grinned, picked up the wine bottle and poured a little into Xiao Yunhai's glass, and said, "Xiao, how about you try it first?"
Xiao Yunhai took a sip, frowned slightly, and said, "It's sour and astringent, it's really hard to drink."
Kerry smiled at Jesse: "Let me tell you, Xiao doesn't know how to taste red wine at all."
Jesse smiled and said, "Does that mean that the bottle of wine will be given to us?"
Kerry said: "Xiao is a generous person, of course he won't rob us."
Hearing the two singing together, Xiao Yunhai shook his head and said, "Okay, don't worry, I won't argue with you. Jesse, how is my book selling?"
Jessie smiled and said, "If it doesn't sell well, why would Kerry and I order such a good wine?"
Xiao Yunhai narrowed his eyes and said, "How many volumes?"
Jesse said: "56 copies yesterday, 49 copies today, plus the 32 copies on the first day, in just three days, we sold 130 copies. Eighty-seven thousand and six hundred copies. Xiao, "Harry Potter" has become popular all over the United States. There is news about your book everywhere on the Internet and on TV. You printed 500 million copies and there is no one at all. question."
Xiao Yunhai said happily: "That's great. I knew that "Harry Potter" would definitely become popular."
Jesse said: "However, our 3000 million US dollars of publicity expenses have been spent. Xiao, do you want to continue the publicity? Or just leave it at that."
Xiao Yunhai asked: "What do you think is the best way for me to do?"
Jesse clenched his fists and said excitedly: "Of course I will continue to work hard. If you can give me another 1000 million dollars, I promise that the whole of America will be ruled by Harry Potter."
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said: "Then continue to promote. By the way, I would like to ask you a very vulgar question. If all 500 million copies are sold, how much money can I earn?"
Jessie said, "Our list price is $32. After the nasty government taxes and printing costs, you can make fourteen dollars a book. Five million copies, that's $500 million."
Hearing that he made a net profit of 7000 million US dollars, Xiao Yunhai smiled happily.
Although Xiao Yunhai paid almost [-] million US dollars for the sale of "Harry Potter", it is obvious that this business is still profitable.
Because he got all the copyrights of five "Harry Potter" in total, and the other two that were still conceived in Rowling's mind were also signed into the contract by him.
Therefore, as long as the first "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" can gain a good reputation and huge influence in the United States, even if Xiao Yunhai doesn't make any money, he will be very happy.
Kerry sighed: "Xiao, do you know? When I heard the sales volume of "Harry Potter", I even wanted to die. At the beginning, why didn't I see that it would be so powerful. I should have known If not, I will never give it to you."
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said: "This is what it feels like to be a writer. Do you still have Lafite? I am happy today, please drink another bottle."
Jesse said: "This restaurant has such a bottle, which is already very good. How can there be a second bottle?"
Xiao Yunhai shrugged, and said: "Then there is no other way. Kerry, have you ever thought about making this novel into a movie?"
Kerry's eyes lit up, and he said, "Will you sell me the film adaptation rights of five volumes of "Harry Potter" for 500 million dollars?"
Xiao Yunhai asked with a half-smile, "What do you think?"
Kerry sighed: "You are so cunning, of course not."
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said: "It's good that you know. Kerry, the success of "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" is inevitable. With a huge readership, as long as the adapted film is of good quality, it will definitely attract countless books. If fans walk into the movie theater, there will be absolutely no problem at the box office. Let me ask you a question now, do you want to make a movie or not?"
Kerry thought for a while and said, "If I want to shoot, Xiao, what price will you offer?"
Xiao Yunhai shook his head and said: "Kerry, you are mistaken, I won't sell it, but I can participate."
Kerry frowned, and asked suspiciously, "I don't understand what you mean."
Xiao Yunhai explained: "I think the movie adapted from this novel will definitely have a very high box office. Therefore, I want to be its investor."
