Legend of Tomorrow

? The stars train on Sunday morning and have free time at noon.

Guo Xu met and chatted with Jesse Lisiak, who was preparing to open a restaurant in Los Angeles, and then invited his agent Happy Waters, Robert Smith and others to have lunch together.

The matter of investing in Jesse to open a restaurant was put on the agenda. Guo Xu told Megan about it and graciously allowed the two women to meet so that Megan would not have random thoughts.

Even though Jesse was very beautiful and had a figure like a supermodel, Megan was not jealous this time. Her attention was on another thing.

During lunch, Robert talked about the expected dividends from the movie, and the amount of money that was going to be given to Megan was so much that she couldn't believe it.

Meghan received no salary while making the film, which was counted as a 10% profit share. It would be impossible for any other young actor to sign such a nonsense contract. Only Hollywood A-list stars can sign profit-sharing contracts, and they must be male stars. Female stars are generally underpaid and subject to gender discrimination in the entertainment industry.

Robert could not treat Meghan as an ordinary little actress. They signed an internal agreement and did not make it public.

At that time, Megan felt that this kind of low-budget comedy was just for fun, just to be with Guo Xu. If the movie didn't hit the market and she didn't hold back, it would be a success.

As a result, the movie is now a hit at the box office, and her dividends are a terrifying figure.

This movie with an investment of 10 million U.S. dollars is expected to have a box office of around 150 million U.S. dollars in North America, and the global box office will be around 250 million U.S. dollars, even if it does not reach 300 million U.S. dollars. If fans are willing to collect it, the North American DVD gross revenue is about 100 million to 150 million U.S. dollars. Robert also relied on his family connections to negotiate the North American TV broadcast, and the income is at least 20 million or more.

In the end, the brokerage team roughly estimated that the net profit would reach about US$150 million.

This is only the net profit of the known data. Others include overseas DVDs, etc. which cannot be counted at the moment. The North American peripheral income mechanism is very sound and there are many income channels. It is conservatively estimated to be 150 million US dollars.

Meghan's 10% dividend turned into more than 10 million, which made her a top Hollywood actress. She suddenly became a rich woman.

As the top investor, Guo Xu earns more in salary plus dividends. Making movies is indeed more profitable than playing basketball. One movie is almost as much as his six-year maximum salary in the NBA.

How much money Meghan takes cannot be made public, otherwise it will disrupt the market.

Take Jackie Chan's 2001 hit Rush Hour 2 as an example. Jackie Chan, the main creator, was paid $15 million plus dividends, while Tucker received a one-time salary of $20 million, with no dividends.

The director received a one-time salary of US$5 million without any dividends, while Zhang Ziyi received a one-time salary of US$450,000.

As a blockbuster that ranked fifth in North America in 2001, with a global box office of close to 350 million, Zhang Ziyi only took 450,000. Under normal circumstances, Meghan would definitely have less than her. If it weren't for Guo Xu's investment, she wouldn't even be able to get 300,000.

The reporter asked Guo Xu how he spent Valentine's Day? He didn't tell the truth. The two of them counted money and had fun on Valentine's Day, which was much more romantic than sending flowers, eating, or going on a date.

Megan was still smiling from ear to ear until the afternoon. She would not be jealous of women casually. She was obviously the future boss lady of the Fat Fox Group. How could she be jealous of chef Jesse?

When the money comes in, Fat Fox Pizza Restaurant will also embark on the road of expansion. It has only been less than two months, but the Phoenix store is already extremely popular, with customers coming in every day. They have already chosen a location to open a second store there.

In the evening, the highlight of the weekend, the main game between the Eastern and Western stars begins.

The gimmick of this All-Star Game is quite different. It is not about whether the Lakers star can win the MVP, but a different All-Star Game, a more intense showdown. Stern also specifically mentioned Friday's rookie game, believing that the All-Star game can be played more seriously.

In fact, the league is worried that the Eastern Conference will lose badly, so they promote it like this. Looking at the lineup, the Eastern Conference is obviously at a disadvantage, and there is a gap in the reputation and strength of the stars.

Even a center like Magloire can be selected for the All-Star Game. There is simply no one to choose from in the Eastern Conference. This is why Ben Wallace became the starter and received so many votes. Who else could the fans vote for if they didn't vote for him? ?

The last time the Eastern Conference Stars won was 1998, the season when Jordan retired for the second time. In 1999, the All-Star Game was suspended due to labor disputes, and the Eastern Conference lost for four consecutive years.

Will the All-Star Game be like the Rookie Game without defense and focus on offense? It's impossible, because there are several blue-collar players selected in the Eastern Conference. They can only defend, but they can't play if they don't defend.

In order to make it look normal for the players in the Eastern Conference to play serious defense, the media prepared the fans mentally in advance and brainwashed them into thinking that the Eastern Conference's style of play was pretty good.

Ben Wallace, who was selected to the All-Star team for the second time, was elected as the best defensive player. He also has two excellent defensive partners, Ron Artest and Kenyon Martin, both of whom are defensive players. Good at it, Magloire and Kidd are also good.

After the game started, the Western team's inside advantage was still obvious.

Halfway through the first quarter, Yao Ming made 4 of 5 shots and scored 8 points and 2 rebounds. He was the top scorer in the Western Conference. His only missed shot was from outside the three-point line. He wanted to show off but awkwardly missed a three-point shot. .

Guo Xu only took one shot and made a three-pointer and sent two assists.

O'Neal also performed very hard after coming on as substitute for Yao Ming, dunking twice and blocking Big Ben's shot. The Western Conference players did not defend very hard in this quarter, leading 35 to 31.

D'Antoni deliberately delayed Guo Xu's playing time, let him play with O'Neal, and staggered the time of Kobe and O'Neal. The OK combination just made a fuss in the Lakers. They didn't pass the ball to each other in the All-Star game, which made the media laugh and made the teammates unhappy.

NBA officials originally wanted to invite the three of them to sing the song see you again during halftime. It would be a good stunt and would definitely attract fans. But O'Neal refused because they couldn't sing the live version well. In fact, he wanted to sing Never Again to Kobe.

It is very easy for Guo Xu to help O'Neal win the MVP. He takes fewer shots and passes more passes to O'Neal in the half court. Occasionally, the two of them will play a pick-and-roll. Guo Xu will attract the inside to switch defenses and then pass the ball to O'Neal who is cutting in the air.

This time the two sides did not play a one-sided game, but at the last moment, the West's inside combination of O'Neal and Duncan performed more stably, scoring consecutive points to help the team win 143 to 132.

O'Neal scored 28 points, 12 rebounds and 3 assists, and successfully won the All-Star Game MVP at home.

Seven players from the Western Team scored in double figures. Guo Xu scored 14 points, 12 assists and 3 steals. Kobe Bryant had 23 points, 4 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 steals. Yao Ming also performed well, scoring 16 points, 7 rebounds and 3 assists.

Guo Xu regarded himself as a pure point guard. After scoring the ball, he waited for opportunities outside the three-point line. He made 6 of 8 shots and 2 of 3 three-pointers. He was very efficient. He also had a beautiful behind-the-hand dunk during the counterattack.

Although he failed to win the All-Star Game MVP for the third time, Los Angeles fans did not feel regretful. They only felt that he was a very generous person and said he would help O'Neal win the MVP.

O'Neal was very happy. When delivering his acceptance speech, he specifically mentioned Guo Xu and called him his lifelong brother.

The photographer gave a close-up shot of Guo Xu and Kobe, and their expressions formed a sharp contrast.

Guo Xu was sincerely happy for his friend, applauded O'Neal, and smiled happily; Kobe's expression was more like boredom or jealousy. People speculated that he was depressed because he failed to win the award today.

By this year, Guo Xu has triggered many butterfly effects, and there will be many variables in the future. He didn't know if the OK team would ever stage a drama in the future where they could just laugh away their grudges, but now the two are indeed incompatible. After this season, O'Neal is basically done. (https:)
