Su Li sat on the sofa, holding an apple in her hand and a computer in her arms, chewing on it while typing on the computer. From time to time, she looked up at Bai Huatuo who was busying around and sighed deeply.
"You guys need to wake up quickly."
Su Li murmured softly, logged into the dark web page, read the news attentively, and paid attention to everything about Rome.
I hope my family members are safe and sound and can hold on until I bring back reinforcements!
Su Li's fists were clenched tightly together, and the knuckles were shining white.
…
The crisis of MR Group has come to a temporary end.
Lu Jingyi asked Wang Xiaoyun to convene a meeting on MR Entertainment, and the overall negotiation results were quite satisfactory.
The person in charge of the film and television project, who had remained silent, kept looking at Lu Jingyi, seeming to want to say something but stopping himself.
Lu Jingyi looked over with a cold and sharp gaze, "If you have something to say, just say it."
The person in charge shuddered, his eyes darkening as he gritted his teeth and said, "Boss Lu, before Boss Si disappeared, he was planning to restart the Apocalypse project. I wonder what stage it's at now? Should we continue?"
Lu Jingyi narrowed his eyes slightly, "Apocalypse?"
The person in charge nodded and explained, "'Apocalypse' is one of MR Entertainment's key projects for the next three years. Costing 2 billion yuan, it's a domestically produced science fiction blockbuster with hard science fiction as its selling point. If word of mouth goes viral, it will not only bring lucrative profits to MR Group, but also various derivative films and television series based on the characters created by its vast worldview will be released accordingly, forming a universe worldview similar to Marvel and DC, bringing a constant stream of fresh blood to MR Group's pan-entertainment culture and maintaining its everlasting prosperity!"
The person in charge spoke eloquently, was full of passion, and his eyes were as vivid as stars.
"The traditional film and television drama market is nearing saturation. Several of our series have shown noticeable weakness in their performance after airing. This is largely due to audience fatigue, and long-term development is detrimental. Looking at all of MR Group's projects, only 'Apocalypse' remains on hold. Since it's a closed-loop project for MR Entertainment, I think this film is a perfect fit. Why not take this opportunity to put it on the agenda and boost morale?"
Lu Jingyi remembered that this was indeed in his brother Si Lijue's plan, but it was classified as a top secret document...
"Apocalypse" was suddenly mentioned, and others had also heard of it and agreed with it.
A new genre and a new worldview are indeed very important for the current MR entertainment.
But for the current MR Group, a 2 billion investment would mean falling into an abyss if it is not careful.
But what the person in charge said really made him very tempted.
"If we want to start it, has the director been chosen?" Lu Jingyi asked.
The person in charge said: "It's Director Zhang Zhixu."
Zhang Zhixu is one of the top film directors in the country, but Lu Jingyi doesn't know much about him.
So, Lu Jingyi pondered for a moment and said, "I understand. I'll think about this matter first and get back to you later."
The person in charge was anxious, but he pretended to be calm on the surface. "Okay, Mr. Lu, I hope you can give us a response as soon as possible. This matter is really important!"
"I see." Lu Jingyi said, looking around and asked, "Does anyone have any other questions?"
Everyone shook their heads and fell silent.
Lu Jingyi waved his hand, "Okay, in that case, everything will proceed according to what we discussed at the meeting. I will have the publicity department cooperate with you in the promotion and publicity. Don't let them down. Also, regarding the matter of "Apocalypse", I will give you a reply tomorrow at the latest. That's it, adjourn the meeting!"
After the last two words fell, Lu Jingyi stood up and left quickly.
Wang Xiaoyun typed out the meeting minutes and followed him out.
Outside the door, Mu Xiaoche had been waiting for a long time. He looked up at Lu Jingyi, whose face was serious, and said in a crisp voice, "Uncle Lu, if you need money, I have it."
He knew that MR Group's financial situation was not very good.
Lu Jingyi raised his eyebrows, "How many?"
Mu Xiaoche said: "It's enough for you to film Apocalypse anyway."
“…”
"Holy shit?"
Lu Jingyi was stunned for a moment, then his eyes widened and he blurted out, "Two billion?"
Mu Xiaoche tilted his head and thought for a moment, "That may not be the case, but fifteen or sixteen should be about the same."
Lu Jingyi: “…”
"Did I hear you correctly? You are talking about RMB?" Lu Jingyi was dumbfounded.
Mu Xiaoche spread his hands, "I also want US dollars or euros, this is almost the same."
Lu Jingyi: “…”
Oh shit oh shit oh shit, how come my nephew is so rich, 1.5 billion or 1.6 billion RMB?
How old is he this year? Five years old, maybe!
Damn it!
He suddenly remembered that when he was shopping at Si Yiming's jewelry store before, Mu Xiaohan also casually took out a black card... It turned out that he was the poorest one all along?
After knowing the truth, Lu Jingyi almost became autistic.
Jealousy made Lu Jingyi's face distorted, and he gnashed his teeth, "I want it! I must! Hand it all over to me! Not a single cent can be left!"
Mu Xiaoche touched his nose and said awkwardly, "Uncle Lu, do you know what you look like right now?"
Lu Jingyi: "Hmm?"
Mu Xiaoche: "The bandit leader who robs people on the road."
"snort!"
The leader of the Lu bandit Jing Yi said that as long as the funds can be received, the bandits will be bandits.
"Don't worry, nephew. I won't use your money for nothing. When your dad comes back, I will ask him to compensate you double." Lu Jingyi said very generously. After all, it was not his own money.
Mu Xiaoche rolled his eyes elegantly.
"Okay, I won't joke with you anymore. You and Luo Chen must stay together. I'm going to find Qin Zheyuan to find out what's going on." Lu Jingyi instructed, rubbed his head and left quickly.
Therefore, he did not notice Mu Xiaoche's dark face behind him, and he was rubbing his hair again!
Luo Chen looks at his nose with his eyes and his heart with his nose, acting as a qualified transparent person.
1.5 billion, I feel jealous.
For the first time, I realized how poor I was.
Not only Lu Jingyi was shocked, Luo Chen was not much better. His heart was in turmoil, but because he had a expressionless face, he could not show any emotion.
Lu Jingyi left the company and rushed all the way to Qin Zheyuan's house to tell him about this.
However, Qin Zheyuan had a cold expression on his face, sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed, looking noble and cool.
Lu Jingyi's heart skipped a beat and he poked him with his arm, "Qin Gou, what's this guy's ability like? Can you tell me something?"
Qin Zheyuan sighed slightly and threw the phone to him, "Look for yourself."
"Qin Gou, your father will be angry if you do this." Lu Jingyi complained, but his hands were very honest.
When he opened his phone, he saw a line of trending searches that made him jump up, his face turning pale.
MR Group was exposed in a tax evasion scandal. The tax department has intervened in the investigation and the company's assets have been frozen.
Not only that, a sex trafficking scandal broke out among the group’s senior management, causing the stock price to hit the limit down.
Now it’s all over the trending searches!
