dress rehearsal

Never forget your original intention, and you will achieve your ultimate goal!

Luo Xiao’s spirit was greatly stirred; these words seemed to elevate his soul.

That’s right!

Money is, after all, inexhaustible.

At this moment,

General Manager Chen's image in his mind suddenly became grander.

“Then, General Manager Chen, I’ll contact the cinemas shortly and refuse to extend the movie’s run.”

Luo Xiao spoke quickly.

“That’s more like it. The journey of subduing demons has already earned enough money. The top priority now is to get the movie released on streaming platforms as soon as possible, so that more people can watch it, and we can deliver more value.”

Chen Mo nodded in satisfaction upon hearing Luo Xiao’s reply.

After his fabricated story, he finally managed to kill an opportunity for a large sum of money to come in.

After hanging up the phone,

He leaned back in his seat, feeling somewhat relieved.

That was close!

Almost earned another 1 billion yuan by accident.

………..

Kyoto,

Inside the Film and Television City,

Luo Xiao hung up the phone with a sigh of emotion.

“What did General Manager Chen say?”

Wang Bin looked at Luo Xiao, who had just hung up, with curiosity.

“General Manager Chen refused to extend the movie’s run.”

Luo Xiao looked up at the sky. At this moment, he felt that his thinking was truly too far from General Manager Chen’s.

“General Manager Chen refused to extend the movie’s run? Why is that?”

Wang Bin looked puzzled.

Extending the movie’s run would mean at least 1 billion yuan in box office revenue.

“I’ll tell you about this when we go back tonight, but the decision to take it down is basically set.”

Luo Xiao patted Wang Bin’s shoulder, then walked forward.

………….

Corner Pet Park,

“General Manager Pang, the first batch of pets for the fashion show are all here. After simple training, they can now walk on stage according to the required training.”

Zhou Feng quickly approached Pang Tao, pointing to the group of pets in the distance as he spoke slowly.

At this moment, all the pets in the distance were wearing various outfits—some comical, some cute, some aloof…

As a pet trainer, training some basic walking paths was very easy.

Moreover, when the Pet Fashion Show began, these pets would not walk on their own but would be led by people.

After all, once the park opened, there might be many spectators watching the Pet Fashion Show, and to ensure their safety, the pets needed to be led.

Pang Tao looked at the well-behaved pets and nodded slightly.

“Good, we can rehearse according to the first day’s fashion show schedule. Let’s all take a look.”

“Understood, General Manager Pang.”

Zhou Feng quickly turned and left, running towards the back of the pet show stage.

“Miss Du Xiaoxiao, today’s rehearsal for the Pet Fashion Show cannot be livestreamed.”

Seeing Zhou Feng leave,

Pang Tao turned to look at Du Xiaoxiao, who was standing nearby. Currently, Corner Pet Park had not yet opened, and this Pet Fashion Show was a major selling point.

If it were livestreamed now, there would be less surprise when the Pet Park opened.

So he did not wish for this Pet Fashion Show to be revealed before the park opened.

“General Manager Pang, don’t worry, I understand that.”

Du Xiaoxiao nodded slightly.

Ever since she came to Corner Pet Park for a livestream a while ago, she hadn't returned home.

After all, this Pet Park was set to open on September 15th, and she was going to livestream from here.

Given this, she saw no need to travel back and forth these past few days, so she simply stayed in Jiangcheng.

Of course,

There was another reason for her to stay: the person in charge of Tiger Head Livestream had called her.

He asked her to promote Corner Pet Park well, and furthermore, her previous platform signing fee and livestream gift share had all been increased.

This greatly shocked her,

One must know that she was already a very popular streamer on the platform, and her signing fee and livestream gift share were already very high.

It was extremely difficult to increase them further.

She didn't know why this was, but the next day, she saw that some popular streamers on Tiger Head Livestream were all starting to promote Corner Pet Park.

She already had a slight guess in her mind.

Previously, Tiger Head Livestream had collectively promoted the journey of subduing demons, and now they were collectively promoting Corner Pet Park.

The only connection between the two was that they were both companies under Tomorrow Group.

Tiger Head Livestream helping Tomorrow Group in such a way,

Clearly, Tiger Head Livestream and Tomorrow Group had some connection.

And she had proactively promoted Corner Pet Park, which made the person in charge at Tiger Head Livestream very satisfied.

That’s why they improved her treatment.

It must be like this.

Du Xiaoxiao thought honestly, turning to look at Pang Tao.

“General Manager Pang, I’d like to take a few photos of the Pet Fashion Show for promotion. There shouldn’t be a problem, right?”

“That’s fine, but the pets’ outfits shouldn’t reveal too much.”

Pang Tao nodded.

Using photos for promotion would certainly be very effective.

“Don’t worry, General Manager Pang, I know what I’m doing.”

Du Xiaoxiao nodded slightly.

As they talked, a group of pets, led by handlers, had already walked out onto the pet stage in front.

Seeing this, Du Xiaoxiao quickly ran to a spot not far from the pet stage, picked up her phone, and started taking photos from suitable angles.

These photos were not just for her own promotion; they were to be given to Tiger Head Livestream and to other streamers for promotion.

………………

Time passed,

Soon it was mid-September.

Tomorrow Group,

President’s Office.

Chen Mo leaned back in his chair, feeling a bit tired, as he looked at the final box office revenue report for the journey of subduing demons submitted by Lanpian Film and Television.

He looked at the system panel in his mind.

The system funds displayed on it were currently 1.77 billion yuan.

Of this fund, about 1.6 billion yuan was from the box office revenue of the journey of subduing demons, and about 800 million yuan of box office revenue had already been invested in apartments and new movies.

So his total net box office revenue was about 2.4 billion yuan, which was the income after tax and cinema shares.

The true total box office revenue was over 3 billion yuan.

1.77 billion yuan.

Chen Mo looked at the system funds, shook his head helplessly, and also felt a bit fortunate.

Fortunately, he stopped the journey of subduing demons from extending its run; otherwise, there might have been over 1 billion yuan more in funds.

Now, these 1.77 billion yuan in system funds, after deducting group employee salaries, taxes, and daily expenses, etc.

The remaining system funds are approximately 1.7 billion yuan, and almost all of this 1.7 billion yuan can be invested in the construction of the unfinished buildings.

It was a good thing he found a good way to spend money;

Otherwise, he really wouldn’t know what industry to invest these 1.7 billion yuan in for a while.

After all,

There are many industries where 1.7 billion yuan can be invested, but it’s very difficult to find an industry where 1.7 billion yuan can be invested without guaranteeing profitability.

Chen Mo let out a long sigh of relief.

Knock knock knock!

A knock on the door came.

“Come in!”

Chen Mo looked up and saw the office door gently open.

Mei Yun slowly walked in.
