"This rule is quite interesting."
Qin Yang smiled and glanced at the people in the room: "How big do people here usually play?"
Nisha chuckled and replied: "The levels here are fifteen, and there are five levels in total. The minimum is US$100,000 per game, and then it goes up to US$500,000, and then it is US$1 million. Then five million U.S. dollars, ten million U.S. dollars, and ten million U.S. dollars are the upper limit for betting in a single game. If someone really gets high with gambling and adds more than ten million U.S. dollars during the gambling process, that is okay as long as the opponent agrees. , if the opponent does not agree, the bet cannot exceed the $10 million brought in. "
Nisha glanced around the entire hall and smiled: "Although the people here are either rich or noble, there are very few who play for ten million dollars. Most of them play for one hundred thousand and five hundred thousand dollars." After all, there are many masters here, and more people come here to play with the mentality of competing, but no one dares to say that they will definitely win. After all, there may be one or even several gold bracelet winners among your opponents. "
Qin Yang frowned: "You didn't play the big one?"
Nisa turned back and glanced at Qin Yang: "Of course, there are countless rich people in this world who love to gamble. Las Vegas is a gambling city. There are countless rich people who gather here to gamble, and this place is no exception... …How big are you going to play today?”
Qin Yang smiled and said, "How long is a game?"
"Two hours."
Qin Yang smiled and said: "It's my first day here. I'm not familiar with the place, and there are many masters here, so I'll try the one million game first."
Nisha smiled and said: "Although one person is one million dollars, if there are five people at a table, it is still five million dollars. If you have the ability to win them all, it is a big sum."
Qin Yang smiled and said: "Okay, then you have to wish me good luck. What about you, are you ready to play?"
Nessa smiled and said, “Let’s play, let’s play with you.”
Qin Yang suddenly looked expectant: "Okay, let's get started quickly."
Nisha walked to the bar, took out her membership card, and placed it in front of the waiter behind the bar: "One million games, two people...is there anyone now?"
The waiter swiped Nisha's card, returned the card to Nisha, and said respectfully: "There are two people in front, and there are four of you including you. Do you want to start directly, or wait?"
Nisha smiled and said: "Four people are a bit small. Wait a little longer and give us two cups of coffee."
"Okay, you two, please take a seat. The coffee will be here soon."
Qin Yang and Nisha sat down on the sofa behind a bush of plants, and the waiter quickly brought two cups of coffee.
"This place is really good. The first floor is like a water bar, where everyone can brag and chat. The atmosphere is very relaxed, and there is no atmosphere like a casino. Even if you don't gamble, it is good to chat with friends here. If someone joins in, just fight A game of cards, if you don’t play too much and there is no pressure on winning or losing, it is indeed a good pastime..."
Nisha picked up the coffee and took a sip with an elegant posture: "Yes, although the gambling here can be regarded as gambling, the atmosphere is more relaxed and more skillful than in the casino, and the people who can rely on playing here are usually Although people with status and wealth are gambling, it is still a circle..."
Qin Yang nodded understandingly: "The high-level circle of gamblers and gamblers are also a kind of network."
Nisha put down the coffee cup, picked up a small spoon, and stirred it gently.
"Mr. Mark, I heard that your company's "Thunder Man" is about to be released?"
"Well, the filming was completed a few months ago and will be released in the middle of this month."
Qin Yang raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Thunder Man"?
mark?
Qin Yang turned his head and looked at the table next to him through the gap next to the plant.
Four middle-aged men, two in suits, one in a windbreaker, and one in a jacket, all in their forties or fifties, were talking and laughing.
Qin Yang's eyes fell on the middle-aged man in a suit opposite him, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.
I actually met him here!
This is really a coincidence.
Mark Hayden is a shareholder of Paddy Pictures. Qin Yang once met him at the shareholders meeting of Paddy Pictures. However, the person who represented Qin Yang at that time was Huang Tao from Qin Ge Investment, and he was just pretending to be Huang Tao. The assistant was present, after all, he didn’t want anyone to know his true identity.
"Thunder Man" was a movie invested by Paidi Pictures at that time. Chinese female star Zheng Qi played the second female lead. At that time, Qin Yang acquired Hanas's Paidi Film shares due to conflicts with Hanas and recovered the money at the same time. With the 300 million that Ryan had taken away from the Hurricane Research Institute, Qin Ge invested in the investment of "Thunder Man" with this money, investing 50 million US dollars, accounting for one-third of the total investment.
Qin Yang not only asked Qin Ge to invest one-third of the capital, but Qin Yang also has close to one-fifth of the shares in Paidi Pictures. A simple calculation shows that Qin Yang's investment in "Thunder Man" is close to 70 million U.S. dollars, accounting for about 45% of the total investment of 150 million U.S. dollars. In other words, Qin Yang’s investment in this movie accounted for almost half, and correspondingly, Qin Yang could get about the same amount from the final movie income. half.
The 150 million US dollars includes production costs and publicity and promotion costs. According to the North American box office sharing ratio, as long as the domestic box office reaches 300 million, the film company will share 50% to break even. However, a good movie will not only be broadcast in the United States, but also overseas, with a 40% overseas box office share and a 25% Chinese box office share. There are also other peripherals and copyright broadcast income from websites, TV stations, etc.
Qin Yang had naturally calculated it at the beginning. The probability of Thunderman losing money is very low, but how much money can be made depends on the market reaction.
Qin Yang has been very busy recently, and Paddy Pictures has also been handed over to Huang Tao to manage. When Huang Tao met the day before yesterday, he also privately reported to Qin Yang about his work, and mentioned the upcoming "Thunderman". Qin Yang never thought that he would come to Las Vegas and accidentally ran into Mark Hayden, a shareholder of Paddy Pictures.
Mark Hayden's share in Paddy Pictures is not too large, only 10%, which is less than Qin Yang's share, but this 10% share is worth a lot, about 1 billion US dollars, so Mark is also a standard billionaire.
Why did this guy come to Las Vegas, and he seems to be an acquaintance here?
Is he also a member here?
Qin Yang thought about it and felt relieved. Los Angeles and Las Vegas are two adjacent cities, with an air distance of only over 200 miles, and even if you drive, it is less than 300 miles, and even if you drive, it is only three or four hours away. If you are a gambler, it is completely normal for you to come from Los Angeles to gamble a few times on weekdays, just as a vacation. After all, such people are everywhere in casinos in Los Angeles...
