351 [Millionaire]

Ye Jin received another news that "Rocky" was filmed in mid-March, and after a month of post-production and promotion, it was officially released in mid-April.

This film, which invested $1.2 million, did not attract attention in the early stages. Warner Pictures only arranged for trials in more than 40 theaters in Los Angeles.

But unexpectedly, after the release of this low-cost movie, it had a very good reputation. In a few days, the audience passed on their mouths, and the whole audience was filled.

Seeing this situation, Warner Pictures immediately expanded its release scale. From more than 40 in the early stages, it quickly expanded to more than 1,000... It has now been fully released throughout the United States.

Its box office is also very good. It has accumulated to now, and it has reached 50 million US dollars, which is quite powerful. It has won the North American weekly box office rankings for two consecutive weeks.

This movie was fully invested by Ye Jin, who was able to get 48% of the North American box office share and 20% of the overseas box office.

In this way, so far, Ye Jin can receive a box office of 24 million US dollars so far, which can be said to be a big profit.

Moreover, "Rocky" is already the third movie he invested in Hollywood, and it is also the third movie that achieved amazing box office through small gains.

Three battles and three consecutive movies were invested in millions of dollars and won high box offices of tens of millions of dollars. Such an astonishing success rate and such brilliant record made it beyond the reach of Hollywood producers. Ye Jin's status in Hollywood has also become higher and higher.

The success of "Rocky" also made Stallone, who was originally an unknown, famous, and the heroine Meryl Streep also became famous.

CAA had signed them under his command long ago. Now that they are so popular, it is naturally excellent news for CAA. As one of the shareholders of CAA, Ye Jin has benefits for the company, so he naturally benefits. He is a few birds with one stone.

...

The third news is that Warner Pictures and Ye Jin's Mythical Pictures settled the box office share of "Dragon Hard Boy".

"Dragon Hard Boy" has a box office of 72.5 million US dollars in North America, an overseas box office of 65.76 million US dollars, and a global total box office of 137 million US dollars.

This movie was jointly invested by Ye Jin's Myth Pictures and Warner, and Warner was responsible for the distribution, so the share ratio was very complicated.

In the end, Ye Jin received 26.3 million US dollars, which was quite good.

The tax season of Asiatican starts on January 29th and ends on April 15th. Although Ye Jin made a lot of money during the 75th year, he actually received very little money.

With all the plans, only the royalty dividends given to him by MCA Records. As for "Dragon Wild Boy", the dividends for "Ghost Street" were not in place, so when filing taxes in April, Ye Jin only needs to declare the income of [Dragon Wild Royalties].

After calculations by private financial consultant Yalisanzhuo Meier, Ye Jin finally had to pay only $50,000 in taxes. This was a lot less than the 320,000 he had to pay.

The reason for this is that Alishanzhuo Meier has adopted various legal measures to avoid taxes. For example, converting personal income into company income, the company's tax payment ratio is much lower than that of private tax payments. For example, counting personal expenses into company expenses, which has caused the company's profits to drop sharply, and naturally there will be less tax payments.

After the tax payment season, Warner Pictures settled accounts with Ye Jin, which made the company's account more than 20 million US dollars, and also made Ye Jin a rich man with a net worth of tens of millions.

The fourth news is that in Xiangjiang, Hong Jingbao, Jackie Chan, Yuan Biao, Dong Wei, Wu Yaohan and others have successively released movies such as "The Prodigal", "The Boxing Spirit", "The Thief and the Wise" and have achieved good box office results, which has also made Ye Jin feel relieved.

It seems that even if they are not in Xiangjiang, they can still live a good life.

In addition, Ye Jin's movies such as "The God's Fight", "Fang Shiyu", "Half-Top", and "Dragon Hard Boy", were all released in Japan and achieved very low box office results.

In particular, "Fang Shiyu" won a box office of 2.2 billion yen, which also made Ye Jin's popularity and status in Japan soar rapidly, and now he is enough to compete with the big stars in Japan.

"Half a pound" also achieved a box office of 1.7 billion yen in Japan. The reason why this movie is popular is that Japanese audiences have never seen such a funny movie.

They felt that the jokes in "Half-Keep-One" were so rich, just like eating explosive candy, and they kept exploding in their mouths, which was very pleasant.

This movie allowed Japanese audiences to see Ye Jin's extraordinary funny skills, and also made his popularity in Japan more and more. It even attracted many female fans who did not like to watch action movies.

This movie also made Xu Rongwen and the brothers Xu Rongying, who were in the same crew, become famous in Japan. Xu Rongwen even got a nickname and was affectionately called [MR.BOO] by Japanese people.

The success of this movie also led to the introduction of another masterpiece of Xu Rongwen, "The Two Stars of the Ghost" in Japan, which was also a great success.

From then on, the [MR.BOO] series has become a golden sign. As soon as Xu Rongwen's new work started filming, Japanese film dealers have come to discuss copyright issues.

The last news is that Zhao Yazhi will travel from Xiangjiang to England and will settle near Songlin Studio.

This news is what excited Ye Jin the most.

After four hours of flight, everyone flew from Tunisia to London, and then took a bus at the airport to the Songlin Studio.

The bus drove out of central London and was speeding on the winding and quiet country road. After two hours, it arrived at the famous pine forest set.

As soon as I entered the Songlin Studio, I saw several tall studios, each studio was at least four stories high. One of them was inlaid with a distinctive [007] LOGO. The famous "007" series of movies were filmed there.
