Chapter 790

401 Billion-dollar box office director, everyone's shock, hot merchandise sales, Cai Yi Nong treats, nervous little flowers.

Qin Yu naturally saw it too, but well, the most important thing wasn't written on it.

Merchandise is where the real big money is made.

"Why are you looking at me?"

Qin Yu returned the document to Daniel and said with a smile.

"Looking at me won't give you anything good, I already gave you your pay and red envelopes."

"Qin, who's talking about that? 1 billion, you are very likely to become a 1 billion director."

Quentin said excitedly.

"That's right, Director Qin, when Pirates' box office breaks 1 billion, you will become the 13th director in the 1 billion club on this planet."

"Is it thirteen?"

"That's right, I didn't see it wrong, the last one was Michael Bay."

"..."

"Then the gold content is different, Qin is the director and the producer."

"That's true."

"..."

Everyone's eyes on Qin Yu were different; a 1 billion director, and the gold content of Qin Yu's 1 billion director status is also very high.

Self-written, self-directed, and he is also the producer; half of the previous dozen club members relied on the credit of series films.

For example, the Marvel series, the Star Wars series, and the Transformers series.

But Qin Yu is different; although Pirates of the Caribbean is also a series movie.

But.

This is the first one, there was no foreshadowing before.

This gold content is full.

"Alright, everyone, I know you are very excited, but well, let's wait until it breaks 1 billion."

"It's still early~"

"..."

Depp, Quentin, and others watched Qin Yu be so calm.

Their evaluation of Qin Yu in their hearts rose a bit more; if it were someone else, they wouldn't have been able to hold back.

He could actually be so indifferent.

Amazing.

Quentin and the others in the back row were still discussing with each other, their faces full of excitement, and even tweeting.

Qin Yu watched these people still have so much energy.

Then he could arrange more roadshows later.

He was about to finish, but these people could continue.

"Hehe, Qin, congratulations, 1 billion director." Qin Yu, who was sitting next to Steve, said softly.

"Congratulations my ass, if not this time, the next one will definitely be, it's just a matter of time."

The reason why Qin Yu wasn't that excited was because he knew that becoming a 1 billion director was just a matter of time.

In his previous life, Pirates of the Caribbean 2: Dead Man's Chest had 1 billion.

So if the first one didn't, the second one definitely would.

Also.

Don't forget he has another series movie, The Matrix!

The first one had a global box office of 700 million, and with the first movie as a foreshadowing.

The second one, The Matrix Reloaded, also has a very good chance of breaking 1 billion.

So what's there to worry about?

"The box office doesn't make much money, Steve, don't hide it, how are the merchandise sales?"

"Hurry up and say it."

Qin Yu cares about merchandise; this is where the real big money is made.

"It's not much, merchandise in the US adds up to about 120 million, overseas is a bit more, around 150 million."

"..."

"Other countries are not bad."

"The worst is your China, Qin, after so many days of release, so much merchandise only sold 10 million US dollars!!!"

Among so many countries, it's almost at the bottom.

Steve was furious; originally they thought Qin Yu was Chinese, so there should be many people supporting him.

Unexpectedly, the merchandise was so bad, he was also speechless.

Qin Yu rolled his eyes; support my ass, any piece of that stuff you sell costs over a hundred.

Some cost hundreds or thousands.

Copyright in China hasn't been fully established yet.

That stuff is several times cheaper online, just buy the pirated version directly.

Don't talk about Qin Yu, even if Third Master came, there would be no way.

To be honest, having 10 million US dollars, Qin Yu felt it was not bad.

Unexpectedly, so many people still bought it.

Nearly 300 million in merchandise sales in two weeks of release, not bad.

Qin Yu can get about half, excluding labor, transportation, and production costs.

100 million US dollars is no problem.

And this stuff doesn't disappear after it's taken off the screens; it can still be sold later.

Even if you don't produce it, licensing it to other large toy companies will also bring in a lot of copyright fees every year.

"I will find people from the Big Five accounting firms to audit the accounts later, Steve, don't play tricks on me."

"Qin, Warner is not a company that pits its own people."

Qin Yu hummed and didn't speak.

Thinking beautifully, the accounts must be audited, not just Warner, Fox is the same.

He has to audit them all; the eight major Hollywood companies are not good people.

Pitting their own people might be a little less, but if he completely trusts this group of people, then he's really stupid.

In the afternoon, Qin Yu and the others arrived in Shanghai and started the roadshow in China.

Although Depp and the others had been to China before, they really hadn't seen anything.

After one day of roadshow, they found that Shanghai was even more prosperous than the capital they visited last time.

Even many Western cities look like small county towns compared to Shanghai.

And the fans are also very enthusiastic.

It's just that they were a bit crazy when they saw Qin Yu.

Busy from four in the afternoon until nine in the evening, running five venues.

Only then did the roadshow in Shanghai end today.

"Wow, Qin, it's too good, Shanghai is so prosperous, so beautiful."

The group just walked out of the cinema.

Looking at the Oriental Pearl Tower at night, and the Huangpu River, the ten-mile foreign field, the lights were brilliant.

Their faces were full of surprise.

In their hearts, they felt that Shanghai didn't seem too far from New York, a real world-class international metropolis.

"It's indeed beautiful, but well, it has nothing to do with ordinary people."

Qin Yu looked at the brilliant Oriental Pearl Tower and sighed in his heart.

In his previous life, he actually came to this place too.

Shanghai is indeed the most prosperous and brilliant metropolis in China, but it is very difficult for an ordinary person to survive in Shanghai.

It's like a proud princess; many people can only look from afar, and it's even hard to get close.

Compared to Shanghai, Qin Yu actually likes Guangzhou a bit more.
