Chapter 278

"Ding! Trigger critical hit, 200 yuan consumption rebate from Feng Dai, sincerity index 45.03%, reverse critical hit 4503 times!"

Dozens of red envelopes, with a total of more than 30 million crit.

Lin Bin didn't care about this little money at all. What he cared about was that every time he received a red envelope, he could clearly see the sincerity index of each employee.

In this way, it will be clear at a glance which people were poached by Song Xinghui and which ones were not poached.

Lin Bin paid special attention to those employees whose sincerity index exceeded 40%. These people should be loyal employees to Tianma Entertainment and can be reused in the future.

As for those who were poached, even if he had just announced an extra month's salary as a bonus, he could still make a profit with just a casual hit.

After receiving all the red envelopes, Lin Bin immediately called out the names one by one, asked Sun Xiaomin to write them down, and then handed them to Xia Mo.

"Lao Xia, these people are fine. You can leave the movie promotion to them first. Let's take our time with the rest."

Xia Mo basically had some impressions of the employees of Tianma Entertainment. She took the list and glanced at it, but couldn't see anything.

The only thing she discovered was that all the employees on the list were women.

"Lin Bin, tell me honestly, what are you doing?"

"Okay, Lao Xia, please don't ask so many questions. Time is tight now and the tasks are heavy. These people I mentioned are absolutely trustworthy, so you can hurry up and get busy."

Lin Bin didn't explain anything, but repeatedly assured that these people were absolutely fine. Xia Mo could only bite the bullet and obey his instructions.

Unexpectedly, the next work went extremely smoothly.

Under the influence of money making ability, "The Big Bang Earth" quickly became a hot search on major platforms, attracting the attention of the entire Internet.

Lin Bin followed suit and asked Sun Xiaomin to create a new group, including all the crew members, collected red envelopes again, and then gave Xia Mo a list of names.

On the third day, Xia Mo divided the work according to the list given by Lin Bin, and the press conference of "The Big Bang Earth" was finally held as scheduled, and it was a great success.

After discovering that things went so smoothly, Xia Mo was not only shocked but also filled with doubts.

You won't believe anyone who says he has experience in dealing with women.

But how did Lin Bin do all this?

Also confused were Tang Yue and the others.

Gu Mingda saw more and more publicity for "The Big Bang Earth" online and immediately became nervous.

"Mr. Song, didn't you say that you hired a lot of people at Tianma Entertainment? How come their press conference was successfully held now?"

Song Xinghui looked like he was eating shit, "How do I know? Lin Bin handed over the movie promotion work to some people, but I didn't poach them all."

Although Tianma Tianma Entertainment has only invested in one movie now, it still has other work to do, so only a part of its employees are needed for publicity.

What Song Xinghui didn't expect was that none of these people could be recruited by him.

Tang Yue frowned and persuaded: "Okay, Mingda, you don't have to worry, it's useless even if Lin Bin starts promoting it now, we are already a lot ahead."

Gu Mingda breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, "Master Tang, what should we do next?"

Tang Yue did not speak further, but looked at Wang Xingsi.

Wang Xingsi immediately understood, "Don't worry, Mr. Tang, I have already made arrangements for the theater. After Lin Bin finishes promoting, he will find that his movie will not get many slots at all, and we can start pre-sales right away. ”

"Okay! This time, let's see what else he can do!" Tang Yue immediately laughed.

...

"Lin Bin, something happened, please come over quickly."

Early in the morning, Lin Bin received another call from Xia Mo and was immediately speechless.

Isn't it just a movie? It's a bunch of bullshit.

"Lao Xia, you are in charge of the film company, and troubles can happen at every turn. If I win the box office bet this time, it won't be enough to make me happy once, at least twice."

On the phone, Xia Mo's teeth were clenching.

"Stop talking nonsense. If you can solve this matter this time, don't say it twice, I can make you happy three times!"

Lin Bin was shocked, "This is what you said! Wait, I'll be there right away."

Chapter 352 Spending money like running water

Half an hour later.

By the time Lin Bin arrived at Longhai Building, Zhou Manqing and Xia Mo in the office were as anxious as ants on a hot pot.

"Lao Xia, what happened again this time?" Lin Bin asked curiously.

It's been a week since the movie press conference. "The Big Bang Earth" has become more and more popular online these days. Everything is moving in a good direction, so there should be no problem.

But looking at the expressions of Xia Mo and the two at this moment, it seemed as if the sky was falling.

Xia Mo knew that Lin Bin was used to being a hands-off shopkeeper, so he asked, "Warner's "Star Trek" has started pre-sale, did you know?"

Lin Bin is very confident in "The Big Bang Earth", but he doesn't pay much attention to these things. "What's wrong, how much is their pre-sale box office?"

Xia Mo: "It's almost 200 million!"

Lin Bin groped his chin, "Okay, two hundred million isn't too much. If you're in a hurry, let's start pre-sales."

Xia Mo couldn't help but rolled his eyes, "That's the problem. We can't pre-sell it at all now, and the release is also a problem."

Lin Bin was stunned, "What do you mean? Didn't the movie pass the review a long time ago, and the publicity was almost the same, so why did it go wrong again when it was released?"

Zhou Manqing didn't know much about the film industry before, but because of this bet, she has been paying close attention to Tianma Entertainment recently, so she also knows some basic procedures.

She immediately explained to Lin Bin, "Abin, Xia Mo was also preparing to start pre-sales yesterday, but when she contacted the theaters, she found that the major theaters were unwilling to schedule our movie."

Lin Bin was stunned for a moment, and immediately reacted, "Fuck! It must be Tang Yue who is making trouble again."

Zhou Manqing nodded, "It should be Wang Xingsi's idea. After all, Warner is an old film and television company, and it has friendships with major theaters, so it limits our scheduling."

Lin Bin frowned immediately.

Even if everyone wants to watch "The Big Bang", if they can't even guarantee the basic scheduling, they can't watch it even if they want to.

In this case, what's the point of talking about box office?

"Old Xia, you have been in the entertainment industry, don't you have any other ideas?" Lin Bin asked.

Xia Mo's face was livid, "My face is not as big as Wang Xingsi's, what's the use?"

She also knew that she was really careless this time. Everything was almost ready, but she didn't expect that it would be stuck in the scheduling.

Lin Bin was a little speechless.

Now that it has come to this, it is useless to blame Xia Mo, and this matter was originally because of her.

However, this matter doesn't seem to be a big deal.

Lin Bin said directly: "Since those cinemas are unwilling to schedule our movies, let's just buy all the cinemas in the country and do it ourselves!"

Zhou Manqing widened her eyes, "Abin, a cinema requires at least tens of millions of investment, and there are tens of thousands of cinemas in the country, large and small. If we really buy them all, it will cost hundreds of billions."

It was only 100 billion, Lin Bin really didn't care, but it was indeed a bit wasteful to do so, "Then what do you think we should do, Manqing?"

Zhou Manqing was speechless.

Xia Mo suddenly stared at Lin Bin, "You are not kidding, do you really want to buy the cinema?"

Lin Bin gave her a look, "Of course, for the three times you promised, spending some money is nothing."

Xia Mo snorted, "If you really want to, I will definitely do what I say."

"Okay! In this case, I will definitely buy this cinema!"

Zhou Manqing didn't know what three times meant, and hurriedly persuaded, "Abin, don't be impulsive. Even if you want to buy the cinema, others may not be willing to sell it, and there is only one month before the movie is released, so there is no time."

This is indeed a problem.

Lin Bin frowned and thought for a while, then said, "How about this, I'll call Lao Sun over and ask him to arrange for someone to take action quickly. We can buy the cinema at a high price.

If we encounter a company that really refuses to sell, we can sign a gambling agreement with the other party. As long as we can guarantee enough screenings, if the box office does not exceed 10 billion, all the profits will be counted as the other party."

"10 billion? Are you crazy?"

Even if Xia Mo was very confident in "The Big Bang", she was shocked when she heard this number.

You know, the current highest box office record in China is only more than 5 billion.

And "The Big Bang" is just a science fiction film with a limited audience, and there are no particularly famous actors. Xia Mo's ideal box office is only 6 billion.

But even if the box office can reach 6 billion, this movie will definitely lose money.

You know, in order to acquire Tianma Entertainment, it cost nearly 2 billion, and then in order to shoot the movie, it cost more than 2 billion to invest in Zhushan Film and Television City. Now the money spent on movie promotion is nothing.

Now, after the release, there are enough screenings, and Lin Bin wants to acquire theaters again, which must be a considerable amount of money.

If he signs a gambling agreement with the theaters as he said just now, the box office will basically not be able to recover much blood, and the more he loses, the more money he loses.

Lin Bin shrugged and said nonchalantly: "If we lose this bet, we will have to pay 100 billion, so what does the box office money mean?"

Zhou Manqing and Xia Mo were speechless when they heard it.

Seeing that the two had no objections, Lin Bin waved his hand and said, "Okay, let's do it this way!"

He immediately took out his mobile phone and called Sun Pingan.

Sun Pingan is usually only responsible for Blue Ocean Investment. Recently, he has nothing to do and is relatively free.

After receiving Lin Bin's call, Sun Pingan immediately mobilized all his manpower and dispersed to all parts of the country.

However, even so, the manpower is still very tight.

Days passed, and seeing that the acquisition of theaters was slow, Lin Bin went to Yunlu again.

After all, Genting Real Estate is one of the top three real estate giants in China, and Yunlu also knows many movie theater owners. With her help, the acquisition progress has been greatly improved.

Money was spent one by one, like flowing water.

At the same time, movie theaters of all sizes also changed their names and became Lin Bin's industries.

Zhou Manqing looked at the financial expenditure report, and the worry on her face became more and more intense.

Originally, at the beginning of the year, she had discussed with Lin Bin that TT Group should develop steadily this year and spend as little money as possible.

But now, just for the release of a movie, tens of billions have been spent.

If this bet loses again, it will have to pay out 100 billion, which is simply a loss to the grandmother's house.
