Chapter 25: The Mansion in Beverly Hills
In Beverly Hills, there are two kinds of houses, one is called the existence of townhouses in the future.
Of course, according to Japanese parlance, it is called a household building.
According to a fixed plan, there are villas that are united on both sides of the road. The price of this kind of villa is not low, but it is obviously not comparable to the villa located on the side of the mountain.
Most of the people who live there are executives or some small bosses.
They value the safety of Beverly Hills and choose to buy real estate here.
Living in such a community can guarantee your own safety to the greatest extent possible.
Los Angeles in 1991 was obviously quite unsafe, although it may not be so safe in the future.
The car drove exceptionally smooth on the asphalt paved road, and Kevin and Julie enjoyed the scenery on both sides and were instantly relaxed.
This is the happiness that rich people can experience.
People who are busy between work have no time to enjoy such a view.
The car drove for about 20 minutes, and the road gradually showed an upward trend. After another five minutes of driving, it came to a villa.
Before entering, they passed the guard of a huge iron gate.
After Li Te came up with some proof, he was allowed to come in by the guards.
Obviously, this is the guard of the high-end villa area living on the side of the mountain, and unidentified people generally cannot get here at all.
The villa is surrounded by dense and neat bushes about two to three meters high, which guarantees a certain degree of privacy inside the villa.
Following the bush trail, they walked more than ten meters, and after a turn, the gate of the villa appeared in front of them.
Lit took out a bunch of keys and tried it. After finding the corresponding key, he opened the door and took Kevin and Julie in.
As soon as they entered the door, the well-maintained outdoor swimming pool appeared in front of them, and Julie suddenly cheered.
It's every American's dream to own a home with a swimming pool, especially in such a nice place.
After a circle around the swimming pool, Julie followed the two to the front of the house.
The milky white exterior wall looks very comfortable. The outside is a huge layer of transparent glass, and the living room is completely undefended.
Entering it, the layout of seven bedrooms and seven bathrooms makes the room look extra comfortable.
Some furniture in the house is wrapped in cloth to keep out dust.
Overall, Kevin feels very comfortable. The only problem is that this house must have cleaning staff.
Otherwise, such a large room is prone to dust accumulation.
And it takes time to travel here. He has to buy a car. Thinking of this, he wants to hire a bodyguard in an instant.
At the same time, he acts as his own driver and bodyguard.
As a rich man, it is still necessary to take good defense, and no one knows whether he will be targeted by the kidnappers.
But that's another story. All I have to do now is to buy the house.
Looking at Lit who was still introducing, Kevin interrupted his speech and said:
"Okay, I've decided to buy this house. You can contact the owner directly. I want to move in as soon as possible."
Lit put away his words immediately, and directly contacted the owner with a smile on his face.
.....
Two days later, after all the formalities were completed, Kevin paid nearly $7 million for the house, and finally made the house completely his own.
As for the process is not worth mentioning, enough money, nothing is a problem.
Professionals just spend money and do things well, and Lite handles all the things throughout the process, and Kevin himself just needs to check in with his bags.
After buying a bunch of personal toiletries and quilts and the like.
Kevin and Julie officially live in this villa.
After a few days of unscrupulous meetings with Julie, Kevin finally started his own business.
A movie project proposal for Escape from the Dead.
.......
Time passed quickly, and it soon came to mid-November. After the initial peak and gradual decline, Chainsaw Cry finally came to the time for the release.
The cumulative North American box office total reached a massive $86.52 million.
Second only to the $100 million North American box office score of "The White-Headed Detective 2 1/2: The Smell of Horror", according to the calculations of major film companies, it basically locked the 11th place in the North American box office chart in advance.
In other words, it didn't make it to the list.
However, the major film companies did not take the film lightly.
You must know that White-Headed Detective 2, as the sequel to the hit film, White-Headed Detective, comes with a lot of popularity, and the production cost is as high as 23 million US dollars.
Coupled with the cost of publicity, in fact, the box office alone basically did not make much money.
It needs to rely on subsequent DVD and TV licensing and other rights revenue to make a profit.
The Chainsaw exclaimed that it was just a horror movie with an investment of US$1.3 million. In terms of the North American box office results, the overseas less said that it can also earn US$80 million at the box office.
This also means that the total box office results can reach about 160 million.
At the box office, after all costs are removed, New Line Cinema can make a profit of 60 million to 70 million US dollars at least.
And there are follow-up income close to this amount, not to mention the birth of the IP of Chainsaw.
That means New Line has a huge gold mine.
Along with this positive, the stock of New Line Film Company also rose sharply, and Shay's assets increased a lot invisibly.
After the release of the film in North America, the five major Hollywood film companies each sent their executives to New Line Films to discuss overseas distribution, trying to get a share of this gold mine.
Of course, in the end, Shay chose Warner Bros., who had the best relationship with him.
....
"Ugh! It's finally done."
Kevin stretched in the living room, looked at the plan in front of him, and muttered to himself.
The plan doesn't actually take so much time, but with a sexy beauty like Julie around, it is inevitable that there will be major problems in work efficiency.
Julie came in from the outside. There is a hot water device inside the swimming pool, so that Julie can still experience the joy of swimming in this cool weather.
Wiping the water droplets on her body with a bath towel, watching Kevin stop working, Julie asked with a smile:
"The plan is ready? The script is also completed?"
Kevin nodded.
"The heroine..."
Julie said with a hint of embarrassment. Although she had already decided that she would give everything to become a big star, she was still a little shy when she saw the opportunity in front of her.
But after experiencing the happiness of the rich, she can no longer return to her original life.
If Kevin just abandoned her like this, her only choice would be to keep eyeing other rich people...
