Crazy Entertainment System

Chapter 563 Dividing the Money

There is an instinctive fear of the unknown.

George W. Bush was no exception; he was absolutely unwilling to confront Chen Yu head-on before knowing what cards Chen Yu held.

He couldn't afford the price.

"Bush, what are you afraid of?!" Radicals immediately expressed their dissatisfaction with Bush's behavior.

"I'm not afraid of anything. Do you know what cards Chen Yu holds?! Do you know what kind of power Chen Yu wields?! You're from the Morgan family, and I'll say it again: if your Morgan family is willing to confront Chen Yu head-on, I, George W. Bush, wholeheartedly agree. Are you willing? Or rather, is your Morgan family willing?" George W. Bush looked at the man expressionlessly and spoke calmly.

"You—" He tried to retort, but was glared at by an old man beside him and forced to sit down. The Morgan family would never engage in a losing proposition. In their eyes, national interests were far less important than their own.

Patriotism is utterly meaningless in the face of self-interest; money is everything. With the Morgan family and Chen Yu locked in a direct confrontation, it remains to be seen whether other American families will step in to help, or even worse, whether they will take advantage of the situation.

Moreover, the Morgan family is well aware of how powerful Chen Yu's Future Bank, Crazy, and War Dragon Technology are. If they were to confront Chen Yu head-on, even if the Morgan family won, it would be a Pyrrhic victory. Most importantly, even if Chen Yu failed, it would only be a business failure in the United States, and would not have much impact on other countries in the world. The Morgan family is very powerful, but mainly in the United States. In other countries in the world, it's a different story.

Moreover, Chen Yu's reach has now extended into industries that they all have to be wary of.

Their businesses in Africa are thriving; they're adept at dealing with mercenary groups, indigenous regimes, mining, and more.

Chen Yu has also extended his reach into the arms trade. Although China does not allow private individuals to engage in the arms trade, it has no say in whether the business is conducted under the name of a foreign company.

As for sneak attacks and assassinations!

This further eliminated that idea. Last time, the whole world suffered losses at Chen Yu's hands; almost the entire world fell into Chen Yu's trap.

Chen Yu seemed to know everything. Most importantly, Chen Yu himself was a dangerous person. According to the information passed on by spies, Chen Yu was definitely a human killing machine. He was ruthless when killing people, and more importantly, he was extremely powerful in combat.

All of this made the Morgan family hesitant to confront Chen Yu directly.

Most importantly, the Morgan family and Chen Yu have many collaborations, which have brought the Morgan family a lot of benefits.

The Morgan family isn't that stupid to turn down money.

The meeting lasted a long time, and the arguments went on for a long time. Nobody knows what the final outcome will be.

On the contrary, Chen Yu, the person in question, was currently editing the video he had filmed, "Unexpectedly".

This video is one of the important steps in his completion of the comedy master task in the system.

"Dabao, step back a little, the sound is wrong, move forward one second!"

"No, go back one second!" Chen Yu said while watching the video on the big screen and listening to the audio, and the smart assistant Da Bao obediently helped Chen Yu edit the video.

"Xiaoyou, this is so slow!" Chen Yu complained.

He was using this skill to gain experience points in video editing. However, the experience points weren't increasing very quickly.

Chen Yu's editing skills are currently at the B- level. Upgrading to B level requires 3 experience points, but his experience points only increase by three to five at a time, which is incredibly slow.

"Of course, you'll improve very slowly with this kind of rough script. If you were to make a show like Star Wars, 2012, or Avatar, I guarantee your experience points would increase rapidly!" Xiao You said, pouting.

"Don't do this?! I want to too, but you know this can't be rushed. I still have a long way to go in my mission as a comedy master. It's a long and arduous journey." Chen Yu wailed. He also wanted to edit blockbusters like Star Wars, 2012, and Avatar, but he simply didn't have the resources.

Chen Yu also wanted to make it, but he didn't have the time; completing the comedy master's task was the most important thing.

So Chen Yu filmed during the day and edited the footage in his spare time at night—something he never expected.

On July 24, Chen Yu finished filming for Love Apartment, and unexpectedly, all 36 episodes were also edited.

"Filming wrapped!" Chen Yu shouted as the last scene was completed.

The sound made everyone cheer.

"The wrap party is all set for tonight. Everyone has worked so hard for so long. Take a week to rest and recharge, and then we'll continue filming season four!" Chen Yu announced loudly.

"Long live the director!"

"Long live Chen Yu!"

"Long live the prince!"

They cheered and rushed to Chen Yu's side, lifted him up again, and tossed him into the air.

Amidst laughter, everyone began packing up to prepare for the wrap party that evening. Of course, they would take a good week off before embarking on their journey again. The fourth season of Love Apartment would be on the agenda.

They had never worked with a production crew like this before; filming never stopped, and as soon as one season ended, the next season would begin.

"Everyone, have a great time eating, drinking, and having fun today. Also, our 'Unexpectedly' series is finally finished! This show is the result of everyone's collaborative efforts. Our video company's CEO loved it and offered 360,000 per episode, totaling 13 million for 36 episodes. After deducting all expenses, including taxes, we have about 9 million left. I plan to give 4 million to everyone, and the remaining 5 million will be used as funding for the second season of 'Unexpectedly.' What do you all think?" Chen Yu said to the happy crowd at the wrap party.

"Long live the prince!"

"Long live the director!"

Upon hearing this, everyone cheered with joy.

They never expected the show to sell for 360,000 per episode. They knew in their hearts that this price was probably given because of Chen Yu. Otherwise, how could a six-minute video, excluding the beginning and end, possibly sell for more than 300,000? They estimated that 50,000 or 60,000 per episode would be a very good deal.

If 4 million is divided equally, each person won't get much, probably only around 30,000 to 50,000. But even 30,000 to 50,000 is still a considerable sum.

Moreover, this money was entirely unexpected, obtained as a prank in my spare time.

They were naturally aware of the fees Chen Yu mentioned, because when they were soliciting scripts for "Unexpectedly," they had prepared bonuses and copyright fees, and these funds would inevitably come from this budget.

"Eat, drink, and have fun, everyone! I'll have the finance department transfer your money along with your salaries!" Chen Yu smiled with satisfaction as he saw everyone cheering and shouted.
