Siheyuan: I'm not happy, don't even think about having a good life

Hearing that Hong Guan didn't speak, Xia Lin said in a panic, "Boss Guan, are you still listening? Don't worry, as long as you help me, I'm willing to do anything.

I grew up in a single-parent family. My mother raised me with great difficulty. I really have no other way. Can you help me once?"

At this time, Hong Guan was thinking, in the original plot, Xia Lin was Guan Peng’s girlfriend as soon as she appeared, and she also said directly that Guan Peng was her meal ticket. Could it be that they were together in the first place just to treat her mother’s illness?

If this is true, Xia Lin is really not a human being for being with Lu Tao. Even if she breaks up with Guan Peng, she can be together. But she has to cheat on him. Is she still a human being?

"Mr. Guan? Mr. Guan? Are you there?"

"Ah, I am here, just thinking about something. How much money do you need?"

"My mother's monthly expenses are 15,000 yuan. I work part-time every month, shooting commercials and the like, and can earn more than 5,000 yuan. Can you lend me 100,000 yuan first?"

Hong Guan was shocked. This was 15,000 yuan per month in 2001. Not to mention a single-parent family like Xia Lin's, without medical insurance, even for a well-off family, it would be a burden that they could not afford.

If it were Hong Guan's family before he traveled through time, they would not be able to afford it if it cost 15,000 yuan per month. This reminded him of a sentence in Medicine God: there is only one disease in the world, and that is poverty!

"Sure. I'm going to fly a bald eagle now. I'll be back in about one to two months. I'll call you later. It's my company's finance department. You can sign a loan contract with her. There's no interest and no term. How about that?"

"Okay, okay, okay, thank you, Mr. Guan. When you come back, I'll treat you to a meal and thank you very much!"

"You don't need to pay for food. How about this? You can borrow 150,000 yuan first. Don't work part-time so often in the future. Just enough for your living. Learn more skills and knowledge. We in Guanlan don't support idle people!"

"Thank you, Mr. Guan. I understand."

"That's it for now. Just contact my company's finance department. I'm about to board the plane and need to call them. Otherwise, I won't be able to get in touch with them within a day."

After hanging up the phone, he called the other side to give instructions. It was time to board the plane, so Hong Guan took the ticket and entered the first class cabin.

When they arrived in Los Angeles, it turned out that Emperor Sergio had not yet fully recovered. Hong Guan took the lead and spent a lot of time every day comforting Emperor Sergio. A week later, Emperor Sergio ran away in panic, and Hong Guan entered the editing room.

Handing the work over to Skynet, Hong Guan entered the Milin Manor, opened several mahjong tables every day, and lived a happy life.

Xia Jie and Yang Mi have also grown up, but they are no longer under the pressure of feudal ethics. Plus, they watch TV series every day, so their personalities have become much more lively and a little crazy, a bit like Tang Bohu's cousin.

One day, Kim Kardashian came to me right after she came out of the editing room and said, "Boss, Saw is almost finished. We can start the Purge Plan anytime, but the company doesn't have enough money."

“How many more gaps are there?”

"About five million."

Hong Guandian nodded. It was pretty much what he guessed. Although they were all small-scale productions, each one cost a lot, and the funds had indeed run out.

"No problem, I'll have someone transfer 10 million to the account tomorrow."

"Okay, BOSS!"

During this period, Skynet used the Bald Eagle's IP to open many stock accounts. While speculating in stocks and futures, it was also constantly making money, so it still had plenty of funds.

“How was the filming of Saw?”

Speaking of this, Kim Kardashian got a little excited. "BOSS, I think it's very good. Someone from Warner Bros. has come to see it, including Ryan, who we met together. He also complained that such a good movie was not invested in by Warner Bros.

I'm already discussing with Warner about the sale of videotapes and peripheral products!"

"That's right, but you have to be more careful. Big companies play with money, so you have to pay more attention to the profits."

Manchester by the Sea, this kind of film has no great value except for winning awards, but Saw is different. The peripheral products and videotapes of horror films also bring in considerable income, so it is right to be cautious.

"Don't worry, Boss!"

“How’s Manchester by the Sea?”

"The box office is around 35.6 million, but the sales are slow. It has dropped to 500 theaters. We plan to run it for a long time."

“What about the box office in other countries?”

"More than nine million seven hundred thousand!"

Hong Guandian nodded. This box office was within his expectations. The original film itself did not have a high box office. Even without the halo of an Oscar-winning re-release, it could still have this box office. This was a reflection of his own shooting skills, plus the bonus of the soundtrack.

"Good. When can we get a portion of the box office settlement?"

"I have been communicating with Warner, and about half of the settlement will be settled this month!" This is also due to the role of Hongguan Copyright. Otherwise, according to the nature of the Big Eight, it would be normal to drag it out for one or two years.

"No problem, just keep an eye on it!"

"Boss, Warner Bros. thinks the interlude in the movie is good. It's an instrumental song and three songs. The response from the world is good. They want to ask if you want to release an EP!"

Hong Guan's eyes lit up. He had forgotten about this. When Skynet was making the soundtrack, they chose new songs that have not been released yet. They are indeed promising!

"I'll leave this to you. The copyright must be ours. We don't have a singer, so we can ask someone from Warner to sing. But we must negotiate a higher price for the album."

"Okay Boss, I don't have anything else to do here."

"Well, then go ahead and get busy. I'm going home first!"

"Boss, I'm meeting a friend at the bar tonight. I heard Charlie isn't here. Do you want to come with me? It's lively!"

Hong Guan laughed secretly in his heart, you only have these little tricks, you still want to record me, but unfortunately you think too much, I am the blue man that you can't get!

"No need, go and have fun. I'm very tired these past few days and I need to take a rest!"

The woman looked at Hong Guan aggressively and walked away with some disappointment.

Half a month later, the entire film of the Joker was completed, and he came to Warner with Kim Kardashian. When they finished watching the entire film, the three senior executives of Warner and Ryan couldn't help but applaud.

"Guan, I have to admit that you are a genius. I really want to open your brain and see what's inside!"

Hong Guan laughed, "Oh, that won't do. You don't have a medical license. I haven't lived enough, and I believe you don't want to go to jail!"

"I like your humor. I never thought that the Joker would be so charming, even better than Batman."

"Of course, because he is a normal person and Batman has super powers!"

"Uh, Guan, you must be mistaken, Batman doesn't have super powers!"

"No, no, no, he does. I'm talking about Taole. Money is also a superpower!"

Several executives laughed and said, "That's right. If that counts, we are also little supermen! Now let's get back to the topic. When do you plan to release this movie?"

Hong Guan touched his chin and said, "I think we have to wait until after the Oscars next year. Even if it is released this year, it will not help Theron's chances of winning an Oscar.

But my company has two low-budget horror movies, and I think there is a chance to make a big profit with a small investment, and I think it would be better to release them around Halloween."

"Oh? How's the shoot going?"

"One of the films will soon enter the post-production stage. I may have to return to the Flower Growers' home by then. You can communicate with Jin then."

"Okay, I have a suggestion. The soundtrack from Joker is pretty good too. If we add the three songs from Manchester and the instrumental music and make two more songs, we can already release a big album. What do you think?"

Hong Guan nodded indifferently, "We are old friends. There is no problem with this. As long as the money is paid and the copyright remains in my company, the rest is easy to deal with!"

"Haha, Guan, I like people like you. If it weren't for your skin color, I would have thought you were like me, both Youzi!"

"Thank you for your recognition. When it comes to doing business, I feel that the flower-growing family is also good. This is one of the things we have in common!"

Hong Guan could feel the disdain in the old white man's eyes when he heard these words, but it only flashed by. After all, they needed to make money on their own.

After leaving Warner and returning to the villa, I found that Emperor Seraphine had returned. After a moment of enjoyment, Emperor Seraphine fell into a deep sleep.

Hong Guan was planning to go to the Milin Manor to play mahjong when he heard the phone ringing.

"Guan Peng, I finally got in touch with you. Sun Donghai has been arrested, but the Sun family wants to contact you and talk to you in person!"

"What do you want to talk about?"

"You should know."

"Haha, then there's no need to talk about it. After Sun Donghai goes in, I won't take care of him. This is already my biggest concession!"

"Is there really no room for discussion?"

"Not at all. I want justice, and I want justice for them."

"Okay, I'll convey your meaning. Don't blame me for this matter. It's very complicated and it's hard for me to do it!"

"I understand. This will not affect our relationship. By the end of the year at the latest, I will have 200 million yuan in money. Should I bring it back to China or circulate it abroad?"

The tone on the other end was excited, "Really?"

"It will be more, not less! But this time we are not only acquiring land in Beiping, but also in other places. I hope you can understand."

"Haha, this is good news. Don't worry. It's still early. I'll talk to them!"

Why do we need to add more than 200 million yuan in funds? On the one hand, it is to quickly acquire land in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen. The sooner you acquire the land, the more money you can make.

On the other hand, if you slap someone in the face this time, you have to give him a reward. Otherwise, the relationship will become strained, and if you have any problems in the future, you won’t be able to find the yamen!

After things here were dealt with, Hong Guan stayed with the Queen for a week, and only after making sure that she was fine did he return to Peking.

As soon as I got out of the airport and before I got on the bus, I saw an old man with a man in his forties and a few people around him walking towards him quickly.

From the way he walks, you can tell he's from a military background. It doesn't take much to figure out who he is!

"You must be Brother Guan Peng, right? My surname is Sun, and I am Dong Hai's grandfather. This is Dong Hai's father. I wonder if I can talk to you?"

There is a saying that goes, "Appearance is determined by the heart." This saying may not be so obvious before the age of 30, but it becomes very true after the age of 30.

Looking at the old man in front of him, he felt good, but Sun Donghai's father was different. He had a fierce look on his face and was not a good person. Especially when he looked at Hong Guan, his eyes were murderous.

"Thank you for the compliment, old man. It's no problem to chat. Why don't you just come to my house?"

You must be on guard against others. If you go to someone else's territory and find some traps, that would be bad. The palace is the best choice.

"No problem, the guest follows the host's wishes!"

Several people got in the cars. Hong Guan got in his own car, and they got in two cars respectively, following behind, heading towards the palace.
