597: High returns

[Warm Reminder: On August 6, the stock price of Shangwei New Materials will hit the daily limit down due to regulatory pressure. Subsequently, the stock price will enter a long period of volatile adjustment, with the battle between bulls and bears intensifying, causing the stock price to fluctuate in the 80-100 yuan range for a long time. The Host currently holds shares of Shangwei New Materials. Please judge for yourself when to sell!]

"Shangwei New Materials is going to be forced to suspend trading for verification by the Shanghai Stock Exchange in two days. Can it hit another daily limit up after resuming trading next month?"

Ye Su had just been planning to sell his Shangwei New Materials shares, but now the intelligence was telling him that next week, Shangwei New Materials could hit another 20% daily limit up.

The total value of the Shangwei New Materials shares on hand was over 23 million. If he managed to catch another 20% daily limit up, that would be nearly five million in earnings.

"Forget it..."

After struggling for just a few seconds, Ye Su gave up the idea of capturing the last bit of gains.

Suspension followed by resumption, and after resumption, first hitting the limit up and then the limit down—unless he could successfully sell everything on August 5th when the stock price rose halfway, it would be as if it hadn't risen at all.

With 60 million waiting for him ahead, Ye Su felt there was no need to dwell on the few million in gains from Shangwei New Materials; it was better to transfer positions to Gobi Jia as early as possible.

"Next!"

[The intelligence refreshed by the "Last Stand" function has been displayed. Now, the additional intelligence for the "Critical Hit" function is being refreshed for the Host. Please view it yourself!]

[This week's intelligence (Level 9): New director Tan Xinyuan has already written the script for "the unsealed dossier" and is currently looking for investors everywhere for the 15 million production cost. Because Tan Xinyuan is unknown and has only shot two short dramas, no film company is willing to take the risk of investing 15 million in an unknown newcomer. The script for "the unsealed dossier" is excellent. As long as the production is completed and proper publicity and distribution are carried out, it can gross over 200 million after being released in theaters and be nominated for multiple domestic film awards. Tan Xinyuan's contact information has been placed in the [Details Page]. Please open it and view it yourself!]

[Remark 1: Tan Xinyuan is a talented new director. He only needs one opportunity to soar and become a well-known director of the new generation. It is recommended that the Host start investing in Tan Xinyuan from now on to gain Tan Xinyuan's gratitude!]

[Remark 2: Chen Xinyi is very suitable to play the female lead in "the unsealed dossier". It is recommended that the Host recommend Chen Xinyi to director Tan Xinyuan to maximize investment benefits!]

Seeing that the "Critical Hit" function had refreshed another Level 9 intelligence, and it was related to film investment, Ye Su immediately perked up and read the intelligence content line by line.

"A newcomer director, only needing 15 million in investment plus some publicity and distribution costs, can gross over 200 million and be nominated for multiple domestic film awards!"

A small-budget film obtaining box office returns several times the investment.

Besides making the director famous overnight, the film could also be nominated for multiple domestic film awards.

Putting these pieces of information together immediately reminded Ye Su of "Crazy Stone" and director Ning Hao.

Twenty years ago, Ning Hao used the 3 million invested by Andy Lau to film "Crazy Stone," which grossed over 25 million, won multiple film awards, and made him famous as a director.

Looking at this intelligence, Ye Su felt he might be witnessing the birth of the next "Ning Hao."

Providing timely help to Tan Xinyuan while he was unrecognized would not only secure the film investment but also earn the gratitude of a future great director.

One investment, two returns; Ye Su felt he was going to make a fortune!

"That's not right, it should be three returns."

Ye Su turned his head to look at Chen Xinyi, who was sleeping beside him, almost drooling:

"Letting her play the female lead is just the right opportunity for her to take the first step into the entertainment industry."

It is said that the entertainment industry is a big dyeing vat, and most actresses who go in have no choice but to sell something to get a chance to climb up.

But Ye Su had no such worries about Chen Xinyi entering the entertainment industry.

"the unsealed dossier" currently only had a director and a script; it hadn't even secured investment yet.

By the time he got his investment, the subsequent steps would be preparing for filming, filing, shooting, post-production, theater scheduling, publicity and distribution...

By the time a bunch of things were finished and "the unsealed dossier" was officially released in theaters, it would at least be after the New Year next year.

By then, his Ye Family Catering outlets would probably have opened hundreds of locations, becoming a premier catering brand in the country.

Coupled with other assets, having a net worth of billions would be no problem at all.

With Yan Ran, the rich woman, at home, the two of them together would definitely have a net worth of over 10 billion.

With the two of them as backers, there was no need to worry about any [accidents] happening to Chen Xinyi in the entertainment industry.

Ye Su didn't believe that, with beauties all over the entertainment industry, Chen Xinyi's Charm could be so great that some powerful tycoon would rather offend him and Yan Ran than do something to Chen Xinyi.

"Dragging this woman in as the female lead can be considered spending money for her, so using the money in the [exclusive love account] to invest in "the unsealed dossier" isn't too much, right?"

[Given that the Host intends for the person bound to the [exclusive love account] to serve as the female lead of "the unsealed dossier," this investment, as well as subsequent distribution and publicity costs, are allowed to be paid from the funds of the [exclusive love account]!]

"Beautiful, both production costs and publicity costs can be paid from the [exclusive love account], saving another huge sum of money!"

Buying a villa and investing in a film, the two expenditures totaled nearly 90 million, and Ye Su finally didn't have to worry about not being able to spend the money in the [exclusive love account].

"With 200 million in box office, calculating based on a 40% share, I can get 80 million in dividends."

"Being able to be nominated for multiple film awards also proves that "the unsealed dossier" can sell its copyright."

"Adding everything up, this investment can surely yield returns of over 100 million!"

After calculating the returns from the film investment, Ye Su felt another burst of excitement, and then he scrolled the intelligence interface back to the first page to review the intelligence gains for the week.

"Not counting the villa that was bought at a 10% discount off the market price, that Qing Dynasty porcelain can also sell for 20 million."

"Gobi Jia's stock price is expected to rise by 150%, and I can buy at most 40 million, which is another 60 million in gains."

"I don't know what [Hidden Attribute] the jade pendant in Jiawen Auction House has, so I won't count it for now."

"A unique sample stock certificate of the China Merchants Steam Navigation Company issued in 1872 can be rated as Level 8 by the system. Someone was willing to pay a million to acquire it 20 years ago. Now, if it goes to an auction, it wouldn't be excessive to sell it for tens of millions, right?"

"Investing in Tan Xinyuan and the film "the unsealed dossier," the final return should reach over 100 million."

Besides the Level 7 intelligence related to Shangwei New Materials and one Level 9 intelligence about a Mysterious Surprise Item.

With the remaining three Level 9 intelligences and one Level 8 intelligence, Ye Su estimated that the final return could be around 200 million!
