Chapter 457

Of course, actually, for Yu Mo.

Although Kevin Feige is the president of Marvel Studios, in reality, under the siege of Universal Pictures, Disney, and DC, it's actually not easy. This was just the best way to cooperate.

However, Yu Mo still reminded the two women: "There is no need to publicize this matter. Once others know that we are cooperating with Marvel Studios, I'm afraid it will attract a lot of jealousy. I don't want any trouble before this film is released!"

Think about it, *Avengers* has a global box office of 2 billion!

Investing 30% is only 700 million, but once completed, that's 7 billion in net profit. Subtracting 2.4 billion, there's still 4.6 billion in net profit left, and he can get 2.3 billion!

700 million for 2.3 billion—not a loss.

And most importantly, once the cooperation with Marvel is successful, Yutu Media will become a true top-tier studio in the country in the future!

"We understand!"

Regarding this, the two women nodded excitedly like chickens pecking at rice without hesitation.

They knew this much. After all, those big domestic directors—let alone ordinary ones, even Chen Kaige and Zhang Yimou hadn't cooperated with such a big film company like Marvel, let alone Yutu Media. Once it got out.

Who knew how much of a sensation it would cause.

But it definitely couldn't be publicized now.

But when *Avengers 3* is released domestically, it will be different.

Think about it, the director of *Avengers* is Yu Mo!

Tsk tsk tsk, that scene—how shocking it would be!

913 estimated it could directly shock the world, and Yu Mo's status would go without saying.

Directly from a domestic newcomer director to a shining new star in Hollywood—that status, hey, is as shocking as a small clerk in the country suddenly leaping to become the Minister of Foreign Affairs!

However, this is a good thing, isn't it?

By then, Yutu Media's status will soar!

Who would still be afraid of the so-called domestic big directors' blockade!

Didn't expect it.

Yang Mi never dreamed that in just two years after signing Yu Mo, she would leap from a female artist who breached her contract with Tangren to a big capitalist in the entertainment industry!

This was something she never dreamed of.

……

"However!" Of course, Yu Mo also frowned and thought of another problem: "Although we have secured the cooperation with Marvel Studios, the investment issue is not a small number. Although it's said to be 30% of the cost, I roughly estimated it, and it's at least 700 million!"

"What, 700 million!"

Well, the two women who were originally excited were scared into covering their small mouths when they heard this number.

Holy crap, so high!

"Well, although I know the cost of foreign sci-fi films is relatively high, it shouldn't be this high, right!"

"No kidding, what do you think!" Yu Mo rolled his eyes and said irritably: "Otherwise, in the past ten years, Marvel Studios has filmed so many movies, with a box office of at least 10 billion USD—why isn't there much money left! The cost is too high!"

"Hmm, that's true!"

The two women thought about it carefully and felt it made sense, but 700 million.

Yang Mi and Tong Liya looked at each other, both seeing the hesitation in the other's eyes.

……

Finally, Yang Mi pouted her cute little mouth and said: "Although our studio has saved a lot of money in the past two years and the profit is very high, most of it has been invested. Currently, the entire Yutu Media has about 500 million in funds!"

"What, 500 million?"

Yu Mo frowned when he heard this. This was indeed not enough. Of course, he also knew that the studio had been making a lot of money recently.

The programs Zhao Liying and Reba participated in, just the endorsements and contracts they took, added up to 300 million, plus the endorsement salaries of Yang Mi and Tong Liya, which were also quite a lot.

But don't forget, the previous 30% investment in *Detective Chinatown* took about 30 million.

Helping Reba with marketing and promotion, 60 million!

Plus Zhao Liying joining the crew with 15 million in capital!

And the previously invested *Wolf Warrior 2*, about 150 million.

So for the studio to be able to come up with 500 million is already very impressive!

"Yeah!"

Sure enough, Yang Mi was also in a difficult position: "The share from *Wolf Warrior 2* is indeed very high, at least 4 billion, but it will take at least three months for that money to be recorded. I estimate there isn't enough time!"

Yu Mo naturally knew this; generally, shares are only collected back from major film chains two months after the film is taken off the screen!

But with only two months left, it's indeed not enough!

……

However.

Yu Mo suddenly raised his eyes to look at Yang Mi and Tong Liya, revealing a wicked expression.

"Hmm, what are you doing!"

Noticing Yu Mo's wicked expression, the two women's hearts tightened, and they subconsciously stepped back, alert: "Yu Mo, what do you want to do!"

"Oh, I don't want to do anything!" Looking at these two beauties, Yu Mo said nonchalantly: "I just thought, the two of you should still have quite a lot of savings, right!"

"Ah! ~"

This statement made Tong Liya and Yang Mi widen their beautiful eyes directly.

No, you're even calculating us?

"That's my private money!"

"Exactly!"

Both women were typical misers; getting them to take money out wasn't an easy thing.

Are you kidding? That's the dowry they worked hard to save; how could they easily take it out.

……

But Yu Mo was very calm: "That's up to you. The opportunity is right in front of you. If the cooperation with Marvel Studios is reached, even if it doesn't make money and just breaks even, our status in the country will soar. Think about it, hey, someone was bullied and blocked when they were an actor before!"

This statement made Yang Mi's pretty face freeze!

Damn it, he hit a sore spot.
