Rant Show: I Angrily Criticized a Million Parents

Chapter 248 Unbelievable Wealth, 6 Million Divided!
Meanwhile, the popularity of "Hello Mr. Billionaire" remains high, showing no signs of cooling down.

Some of the humorous lines, in particular, spread rapidly online and became new internet slang.

"I'm not pretending anymore, I'm showing off my cards!"

"Look at this fortune, it's so strong."

"I originally intended to interact with you as an ordinary person, but instead I've been met with estrangement."

"You are one of the most polite people in the eyes of many snobs."

"You're not a bad person, you just have a narrow perspective."

"Money is worthless, we must respect dreams!"

"..."

No promotion from the production team was needed; "Hello Mr. Billionaire" spread independently across the entire internet.

"Hello Mr. Billionaire" spread automatically across the entire internet, and its box office continued to soar.

In the second week, it surpassed 25 billion.

In the third week, the growth rate slowed to 32 billion.

A month later, the box office finally reached 39 billion yuan, breaking the record for the highest-grossing Chinese domestic film.

Most importantly, Zhou Yang has once again successfully proven himself.

He is not only good at comedy performances, but he can also single-handedly carry the box office!

Apart from Zhou Yang, all the main actors in "Hello Mr. Billionaire" were unknown.

However, through this film, these hilarious supporting actors also gained recognition among the audience.

Since the release of "Dying to Survive", Zhou Yang has gained more than 3500 million followers on Weibo.

After the release of "Hello Mr. Billionaire", his number of Weibo followers increased to more than 4000 million.

These past few days, the staff at Zhou Yang's studio have been busier than ever.

Chen Tianzhen, with her plump figure, moved back and forth in the studio, handing out neatly arranged documents to the various team members.

The studio, only a few dozen square meters, was already crammed with numerous staff members, and the piles of documents made the space even more crowded.

Zhou Yang also noticed this problem after entering the studio. He returned to his office to consider whether he needed to find a larger space.

As things develop, Zhou Yang will definitely expand his studio into a company, and its size will inevitably increase; a few dozen square meters is clearly not enough.

Just then, Chen Tianzhen walked in carrying a large stack of documents and placed them on Zhou Yang's desk.

Chen Tianzhen gently wiped the sweat from her forehead and said excitedly, "These are all scripts submitted to you by major film and television companies, hoping you can star in them."

Zhou Yang glanced around and estimated there were at least thirty scripts.

Zhou Yang said with a wry smile, "Sister Tianzhen, why didn't you let the staff screen them first? There are just too many."

Chen Tianzhen raised an eyebrow and said, "Do you need to tell me? In the past two days, we have received a total of 53 movie scripts, 126 TV series scripts, and 5 variety show scripts, totaling 184. We have already worked overtime to screen out a lot of them."

What the hell!

Zhou Yang was shocked; there were actually 184 scripts!
This is too crazy!
“You need to understand that China produces tens of thousands of TV dramas, thousands of movies, and hundreds of variety shows every year. You are just one of the many ordinary people in the industry,” Chen Tianzhen explained.

Zhou Yang nodded. He knew very well that most of the scripts would not pass the review, and most of those that did pass the review were bad films, with very few that could make money.

As for why some people are still foolish enough to invest, it's simply for money laundering.

"Okay, I'll take it home and read it slowly." Zhou Yang rubbed his head; screening scripts was really tiring.

"Oh, Xiao Yang, I have some good news to tell you!" Chen Tianzhen said excitedly.

Zhou Yang was stunned for a moment, and asked in confusion, "What good news?"

"Happy Twist has deposited the dividends into their account, totaling 600 million RMB!" What?!

Six hundred million!

Zhou Yang's eyes widened in disbelief.

After a moment, Zhou Yang recovered from his shock; the bonus far exceeded his expectations.
Chen Tianzhen was overjoyed. Her decision to leave Rock Records and bet on Zhou Yang was definitely the right one!
Earning 600 million yuan in net profit from a single film is something even Rock Records could hardly achieve back then.

Rock Records' annual net profit is only a few billion, while Rock Records Pictures' annual profit is only one or two hundred million.

Zhou Yang pondered for a moment, then suddenly said, "Sister Tianzhen, have the finance department transfer two million to your account."

what? !

Chen Tianzhen was stunned. She didn't understand what Zhou Yang meant by giving her two million yuan.
“If it weren’t for you managing the studio these past few days, I wouldn’t be able to relax so much and focus on filming. Your decision to resign from Tianmen Entertainment was also very brave, and you made a great sacrifice. This two million is compensation and a reward from the company,” Zhou Yang explained with a smile.

Upon hearing Zhou Yang's words, Chen Tianzhen's eyes welled up with tears. All her hard work had paid off.

"Thank you, boss!" Chen Tianzhen said, her eyes still brimming with tears.

"Oh, right," Zhou Yang continued, "take out another two million and distribute it to the staff as a reward for their hard work during this period."

Each person can receive an average of over 100,000.

"That's great!" Chen Tianzhen immediately left the office and told the staff the good news.

A cheer immediately erupted from outside.

"The boss is amazing!"

"Wow! Boss, I really like you so much!"

"I'm going to work overtime until midnight today!"

"Oh my god! This is the best gift I've received all year!"

"..."

Hearing their cheers, Zhou Yang was also very happy; four million was not a lot for him.

The benefits of rewards are greater than putting money in a bank; they can motivate employees to work more actively.

If you want a horse to run, you have to feed it.

After discussing the office relocation with Chen Tianzhen, Zhou Yang decided to put Chen Tianzhen in full charge of the matter.

After returning home, Zhou Yang began to screen various scripts.

Zhou Yang rejected most of the scripts after just one glance, especially those adapted from online novels.

As a seasoned fan of online novels, he knows all too well how he would feel if his beloved novels were poorly adapted into TV series!
Especially in fantasy novels, it is extremely difficult to perfectly present the grand scenes in the reader's mind.

Of the scripts Zhou Yang currently has, three are television adaptations of fantasy novels: "Battle Through the Heavens," "The Legend of the Condor Heroes," and "The Great Ruler."

After some thought, he ruled out all three scripts.

He would really go crazy if forced to say the line, "Ahead is a Dou Di, dare you dismount and fight?"

Half an hour later, Zhou Yang's gaze was drawn to a script—"Nirvana in Fire." This drama was incredibly popular in his previous life, with both critical acclaim and high viewership ratings.

Zhou Yang felt a slight urge to try it. However, he immediately shook his head, thinking, "This is Brother Hu's work; I can't take away his hobby."

So Zhou Yang picked up his phone and called Brother Hu, inviting him to see a good script.

Less than half an hour later, there was a series of knocks on Zhou Yang's door.

He opened the door, and there stood Brother Hu, who had been waiting anxiously.
