After the press conference, Li Yang left the company. He took the elevator upstairs and walked into Woodpecker.
" Chairman..." In the lobby of Woodpecker Company, the beautiful receptionist stood up respectfully and greeted him.
Li Yang nodded with a smile and glanced at the beautiful receptionist. She was very beautiful and had a good figure. Coupled with her professional attire, she was quite unique.
Of course, Li Yang was looking at her with admiration. He naturally had no interest in harming a receptionist.
Before Li Yang could take a few more steps, a series of hurried footsteps could be heard, followed by a fragrant wind.
" Boss…" Si Jiali's figure appeared. She walked to Li Yang's side and looked at him with a smile.
" Eh, why did you dye your hair red…" Li Yang was very surprised.
Scarlet was wearing purple sportswear. She wasn't wearing high heels, but sneakers.
Under the contrast of this outfit, Scarlet's perfect curves were even more prominent.
Looking up, her blonde hair had turned into red wavy hair. This hairstyle was exactly the same as the Black Widow in the movie.
If Si Jiali changed her purple sportswear into a black leather jacket, her image would perfectly overlap with the Black Widow image in Li Yang's mind. Moreover, she would be even more beautiful because Si Jiali was at the most beautiful moment in her life. Her looks and figure were at their peak.
"Boss, don't red hair look good?”Si Jiali blinked her long eyelashes. Her beautiful eyes were filled with anticipation, as if she was waiting for Li Yang's praise.
"Red hair!" Li Yang's eyes twitched, and a smile appeared on his face. He lowered his head and whispered into Scarlet's ear,""Darling, you're so beautiful and charming. Do as I said before, change into a black leather jacket and wait for me in my car!”
Upon hearing this, how could Si Jiali not understand what Li Yang meant? She laughed softly and said,""Boss, why are you going to the car? Why don't you come to my office?"
" The office…" Li Yang's eyes lit up as he said expectantly,""Then wait for me for a while. I'll be right back!”
" Mr. Li, you have to hurry up…" Si Jiali giggled, leaving behind a beautiful back view.
"Hurry up, are you more anxious than me?" Li Yang shook his head and smiled. He strode towards Carl's office.
"Boss, please sit!" Seeing Li Yang come into his office, Carl quickly welcomed Li Yang to the sofa.
After Li Yang sat down, Carl made a cup of coffee and served it to Li Yang.
"Don't be busy. Sit down!" Li Yang patted the sofa.
"Boss, what can I do for you?”Carl sat on the sofa respectfully and looked at Li Yang without looking sideways.
"It's been almost half a month. How's the sales of Taylor's new album?”Li Yang asked.
" Hmm…" Karl pondered for a moment, sorted out the data, and reported,""Taylor's new album is priced at 11 dollars per album. Due to our warm-up and various promotions, Taylor's current album sales are 210,000!”
" 210,000? That's a lot?" Li Yang was a little surprised. This number was far beyond his expectations.
In his previous life, Taylor's first solo album had only sold 120,000 copies in the first month.
However, if it was Woodpecker Company, it was almost four times the number in his previous life.
"Boss, we've done a warm-up promotion, and with your operation and the media's follow-up reports, 210,000 album sales can only be considered good, not great!”Carl commented professionally.
" That's true…" Li Yang let go of the shock in his heart. He had almost forgotten that Woodpecker was much stronger than Taylor's first music company, Big Machine Records.
Although the sales of 210,000 music albums were not bad, in fact, Woodpecker Company did not make much money.
First of all, the production of music albums had costs. The singers who recorded the albums had to split the sales, and the distribution companies had to take a portion of the profits.
In general, after deducting all kinds of expenses, Woodpecker could earn about six dollars per album, and that was only when Taylor's album sales were extremely low.
With a calculation of 6 dollars, 210,000 albums could bring 1.26 million dollars in revenue to Woodpecker. This bit of revenue could not even cover the advertising fees. It was really a little small.
According to Li Yang's prediction, Taylor's first solo album would definitely exceed 1 million sales.
In the end, this music album could bring in tens of millions of dollars for Woodpecker.
If he added in the additional benefits, such as the increase in Taylor's reputation, the increase in Woodpecker Company's influence, and so on, the various benefits would add up to tens of millions of dollars.
Li Yang was in a good mood as he thought about the various situations. He took a sip of coffee and asked about other things."How are the four manga movies going? Have you found a director? Have the main characters and supporting characters been contacted?”
"Boss, according to the name list you gave, be it the director, the main character, the supporting roles, or the special effects company, everything has been contacted. As long as the funds are received, the filming plan can be carried out immediately!”Carl answered word by word.
" Filming funds, a huge sum of money…" Li Yang felt a headache.
The total investment required to film four comic-based movies at the same time was about 800 million dollars. Although this 800 million dollars was not a one-time investment, it needed to be paid in succession within a year. Without financial support, how could the movie continue to be filmed?
Out of the four manga movies, props, special effects, and setting design cost the most money. The actors 'salaries were not high because the male and female leads of the four manga movies were not A-list movie stars. A few million yuan or a million yuan was enough.
Take the actor of Spiderman for example. His salary was only a pitiful 800,000 dollars, which was considered cheap. Only Si Jiali's salary was the highest, reaching 2 million dollars. She could get such a high salary because Li Yang deliberately took care of her.
Hollywood was a vanity fair. Only when you were famous enough and well-known enough could you get a high salary.
For the male and female leads of these four comic-based movies, what they cared about was not the pay, but the fame and income that the movie could bring after it was released.
As long as they became famous, they could earn a lot of money.
" You don't have to worry about the funding. It'll be in your account very soon. The shooting plan for the manga film will be carried out immediately. By the end of next year, these four films will be released one by one..." Li Yang reassured Carl, telling him not to worry about the funding.
"By the way, other than Si Jiali, have you transferred the other people's management contracts?”Li Yang asked about the situation.
He did not want to train Iron Man, Spiderman, Captain America, and other famous heroes for nothing.
"Boss, they've already been transferred over. They're not a B-list or C-list movie star, so it'll be easy for them to handle it!”
" It's good that you turned around..." Li Yang smiled and nodded."You go ahead with your work. I still have things to do!”
" Boss, take care…" Carl stood up and watched Li Yang leave.
………………
After walking out of Carl's office, Li Yang made a few turns and finally reached Scarlet's office.
As a signed actress of Woodpecker Company, Si Jiali was usually very free. Her office was empty most of the time. Unless there was something important, she could usually not come to the company.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Li Yang knocked on the door.
Kacha!
In less than five seconds, the office door opened. Si Jiali sized up Li Yang for a moment, then looked behind him and urged him softly,""Boss, what are you waiting for?"
" Cough, cough…" Li Yang coughed and walked in calmly, as if he was a gentleman.
As soon as Li Yang entered, Scarlet closed the door and locked it from the inside.
" Phew…" Si Jiali took a deep breath and suppressed her restless emotions. She turned around and walked up to Li Yang."Boss, do you like this outfit?”
"Comrade Si Jiali, what are you trying to do?”Li Yang's expression was calm and he pretended to be serious, but his gaze that kept moving down betrayed him.
" Comrade... hehe..." Scarlet smiled like a flower, as if she had been touched by this form of address.
" Comrade Si Jiali, please be more serious. Next, we will have a character discussion..." Li Yang said righteously.
" Alright…" Si Jiali laughed non-stop. She reached out and grabbed Li Yang's collar, raising her eyebrows and asking,""Dear Mr. Li, what do you want to discuss? What should I do?"
"You're the actor. How would I know?”Li Yang was speechless.
"Oh, so there's something the boss doesn't know!”Scarlet nodded thoughtfully. She did not want to waste any more time, so she stood on her tiptoes and left.
…………………
Half an hour later, Scarlet's office had already fallen into silence.
On the sofa, Scarlet's blonde hair was disheveled, and her clothes were disheveled. She was holding a makeup mirror to touch up her makeup.
" That detestable man. He looks serious on the surface, but he's worse than anyone else in secret…" Scarlet complained softly.
She had suffered enough just now. She didn't understand where Li Yang had learned this new trick. It made her feel embarrassed and unable to reject it. In any case, happiness and pain coexisted.
"What are you mumbling about?" Li Yang didn't hear what Scarlet was saying, so he asked.
" You heard wrong…" Si Jiali turned her head and meowed at Li Yang, not wanting to answer.
Very soon, Scarlet had her makeup redone, and her image was restored. However, her face and expression were glowing with radiance. Outsiders could tell what was going on with just a glance.
After putting away the makeup mirror, Si Jiali looked at Li Yang and said,""Why aren't you leaving? Are you waiting for them to find out?"
" I'm upright and upright. What am I afraid of..." Li Yang said unhurriedly.
" Heh…" Scarlet let out a mocking laugh."I'm not afraid, but some people are different!”
" It seems like you know me very well…" Li Yang laughed and left the sofa to tidy up his clothes.
" Hurry up and leave. I don't want to see you…" Scarlet's expression darkened as she looked extremely unhappy.
Seeing this, Li Yang could only smile helplessly. He opened the door and left.
