In the entertainment industry, everyone has been reborn, but who will be their servant?

Chapter 60 Building the foundation and setting the cauldron
After New Year's Day, the box office of "Fame and Fortune" remained stable between one and two million for about ten days before dropping below one million.

The total box office reached 5485 million!
In other words, it took the movie about twenty days to drop below one million, which is quite stable.

Many of these positive reviews come from word-of-mouth recommendations from viewers.

By mid-January, the total box office had reached 60 million, and the two films had already reached 90 million, meaning that Qin Xuan had completed the box office target for three films ahead of schedule.

Of course, this achievement cannot compare with "Assembly" and "The Warlords," both of which grossed over 100 million yuan.

Currently, there are still several million views every day. With official promotional support, the numbers are even higher, and "Assembly" is expected to surpass 200 million views.

"The Warlords" was not so lucky. After being released for more than a month, it had basically no box office revenue, and the box office stopped at around 1.8 million yuan.

The film had a budget of 2.02 million, but Qin Xuan's interference caused the film to lose more than 20 million.

Although Qin Xuan's film box office was several times less than theirs, his film was the most profitable among them, and it was certain that "The Warlords" would lose money.

The production cost of "Assembly" is said to be 80 million yuan. It includes advertisements. Selling the copyright will recoup the costs and generate a profit. The only question is how much profit they will make.

It certainly won't be as much as I earned in my previous life.

Because Qin Xuan achieved many times the return, on January 20th, Wanda opened its newly built five-star hotel, the Mandarin Oriental Hotel, to them for a celebration banquet.

The hotel's exterior is made of glass curtain walls, which look like dynamic light and shadow, making it very high-end and giving people a sense of oppression when looking up at it.

"Wow, look how beautiful those flowers are!" Shen Ao, Zhang Linke, Li Miao, and others, along with their classmates Wen Muye, Liu Yin, and dozens of others, arrived at the hotel entrance.

Seeing the three crystal peonies at the entrance, like radiant flowers of wealth, I couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

Not only them, but also Zhang Yu, Tan Zhuo and some other actors came. Zhang Songwen didn't come; it wouldn't be good if he showed up.

"Look!" Zhou Shen, Ren Suxi, and other students from the Central Academy of Drama pointed forward.

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a red banner on the hotel's grand entrance that read: "A New Force Sets Sail for the World!"
When they saw those big characters, their expressions couldn't help but brighten.

Someone held up a camera and took a picture.

"Wasn't it supposed to be a victory celebration banquet?" someone asked.

"Which movie should we celebrate? They all had pretty good box office results." someone asked.

Qin Xuan didn't know which movie to celebrate, so he just came up with this name, hoping that the new force would have a stronger sense of unity.

"Welcome!" We had just entered the hotel lobby.

The young women in uniforms stood side by side and bowed to them.

This made them a little uncomfortable; they had never seen anyone line up and bow to them like this before.

And they were all very beautiful, which made some virgins blush.

"You must be distinguished guests of the new force. Please follow me," a mature woman in work clothes greeted them.

The hotel lobby was grand and magnificent, with marble floorboards as smooth as mirrors and crystal chandeliers overhead. They looked around like country bumpkins visiting a grand garden.

The conference hall is on the third floor. It is a spacious place that can accommodate hundreds of people. The lights are as bright as day, and the floor is covered with soft carpet.

At the very front is a platform several meters high, and a huge LED screen with several large characters that look like flames: "Burning".

The inscription reads: "A new force is being established, with its original aspirations, overcoming all difficulties, and creating something extraordinary."

As they filed into the banquet hall, they saw these large characters at the very front, creating a company annual meeting atmosphere.

Qin Xuan was there, and stepped forward with a smile to greet them: "You've all had your fill this time!"

"It's all thanks to President Xuan. Without President Xuan, we wouldn't have enough to eat." Li Miao immediately understood the meaning behind his words.

The money invested has yielded high returns.

"Don't say that, it's all thanks to everyone's joint efforts." Qin Xuan glanced around and saw many unfamiliar faces. These unfamiliar faces hadn't invested, and seeing their high spirits, he couldn't help but feel a lot of envy.

Then Qin Xuan introduced Ye Ning, who was standing next to him, saying, "Let me introduce you. This is Ye Ning, the deputy general manager of Wanda Pictures. The success of our movie this time is largely due to his help."

Ye Ning was pleased with these words and did not take credit for the work.

Ye Ning greeted the young faces of the new generation, saying, "Hello, hello!"

"Hello, Manager Ye!" Several leaders shook hands with him, acquaintances were then introduced.

However, they were also a little reserved, since they were not familiar with each other and the other person was of such high status, a big shot to them.

Just as everyone was chatting, Liu Yifei appeared wearing a fluffy coat and leggings. The leggings made her legs look long and slender, but her outfits were always hard to describe.

Wow! It's so lively!

Everyone turned around and saw Liu Yifei, and they couldn't help but be amazed, not expecting her to come here.

"Teacher Liu is here," Shen Ao said.

"I heard you were eating here, so I came here specifically to freeload a meal," Liu Yifei said with a smile, giving off a warm feeling.

His words had a friendly quality that instantly won everyone's favor.

Qin Xuan stepped forward and said to them, "Let me introduce you. Miss Liu is here on behalf of her mother, and she is also one of the investors in these films."

He introduced Liu Yifei: "This is Manager Ye from Wanda."

"Hello, Manager Ye!" Liu Yifei nodded politely.

"Welcome, Miss Liu." Ye Ning glanced at her a few more times, mainly because she was very beautiful.

She looks prettier than she does on screen.

"Just sit anywhere, don't be picky. Just eat, drink, and have fun," Qin Xuan said, gesturing for everyone to take their seats.

After a brief period of chaos, people started finding their seats, naturally grouping together those who were close, acquainted, or from the same university.

When there are many people, factions will inevitably emerge.

There are ten large round tables here, each seating 12 people. There are about a hundred people here, which is enough. If more people come, we'll add more.

The space is large, and many areas are empty.

Moreover, many people went home for the Chinese New Year and did not attend. This year, the Chinese New Year is on February 6th.

Liu Yifei politely waited for them to finish sitting down.

"Miss Liu, please sit here!" Qin Xuan pulled out a chair and sat down next to Ye Ning.

In addition, actors Zhang Yu and Tan Zhuo were also there, while Shen Ao and his friends went to a table with their classmates.

Liu Yifei didn't refuse. She walked over, sat down, and asked with her head held high, "Where are you sitting?"

"I'll sit next to you. You keep watch for me and don't let anyone else sit here." Qin Xuan pointed to the seat to her right.

"What are you going to do?" Liu Yifei asked, puzzled.

Qin Xuan pulled a piece of paper from his suit pocket and waved it in front of her: "Speech!"

Liu Yifei was speechless. They're still using this tactic.

However, to be honest, she had never heard Qin Xuan give a speech before.

Qin Xuan took the paper and strode towards the stage, facing everyone present. A standing microphone had already been placed in front of him.
