Super Spender Chapter 450 – Exclamation

Chapter 450: Chapter 444: Exclamation

This number caused an uproar among all media outlets in Floral Village, because even after three days had passed, its reputation didn’t drop. This meant it was likely to compare its final box office performance with some major blockbusters in Floral Village. The question was, what the heck kind of movie was this?! Could this even be called a movie?! Wasn’t it just a game video, shot in-game by an ordinary player? It was nothing more than post-production video optimization, and this could be called a movie?!

But believe it or not, this film, which many directors, actors and even the media in Floral Village had previously not looked up to, brought in 1.1 billion Federal coins at the box office over the first three days of the weekend. This box office number means nothing in the North Federation movie rankings – breaking 200 million Federal coins in the first three days of the weekend is not uncommon.

But look at both sides’ production costs, okay? Those films that break 200 million Federal coins over the first weekend, how much do they cost to produce? Almost all are measured in billions. Aren’t all film budgets at least one billion Federal coins or more? There are even some with budgets of two or three billion Federal coins. And what about your film’s budget? For God’s sake, 60 cents per hour? And that’s in Flame Nation coins. Could this be considered a cost? Even if you include all the performers’ costs, you haven’t spent even ten thousand yuan in total!

“Have all copyright issues been settled?” Having confirmed the box office tally for the next day, Finn Lewis called Yuri Johnson in the North Federation.

“Everything is signed, including the entire cast and crew, and all participating personnel have agreed to the copyright ownership and related profit distribution. We have no issues at all. The one hundred million Flame Nation coins reward we had initially offered, was evenly split among the entire creative team. There are thirty-seven people in total,” said Yuri Johnson, responding quickly.

“As long as there are no disputes,” Finn Lewis said, nodding in satisfaction. He didn’t care much about the money, so when the initial contract was signed, he granted these players 13% of the box office profits. Based on the current situation, although we don’t know what the final box office tally will come to, it will undoubtedly be a huge number, even if it’s just 13%.

This box office number didn’t just astound the whole entertainment circle, WY’s official website put this box office number and box office share on their homepage! When people saw this news, the forum could be said to have been turned upside down. These creative teams had initially just divided a whole one hundred million cash bonus, and that was after taxes. As of now, only considering the current box office numbers, they had already earned 13 million Federal coins, about 70 million Flame Nation coins. According to the current situation, we still don’t know what the final box office number will be.

37 people dividing 200 million Flame Nation coins means every player would receive about 5.4 million! This is a terrifying number. It implies that just by playing a game, they’ve created 37 millionaires. What other game can yield such a result? Previous games only offered rewards like mobile phones and laptops, which were considered generous. But now, they were producing millionaires.

What mattered most was that this wasn’t just a gimmick; it was a stark reality. There was no hidden agenda either—all 37 people were from different parts of the country and belong to the same guild.

Adding to that the promotion where WY offered luxury vacations to the Malya Kingdom as a level-up reward, we can without a doubt say that WY had won the hearts of many gamers. Isn’t this really considering the players’ interests? The gamers in the Flame Nation had been hurt by pay-to-play games. Even though their game was a “pay-to-play and pay-for-time” model, their pay-to-play items were only costumes.

In essence, these were similar to luxury items in reality, for wealthy players who wanted to stand out. Average players weren’t affected whether they dressed up or not, everything was optional. So this was already a conscientious game. Furthermore, having such a boss who casually sprinkled money everywhere was just a bonus!

The players were excited, and of course, the national gaming industry followed suit. Domestic gaming companies were left speechless upon receiving this news. Recently, their life had been rough. WY and T Companies, the two former titans of the gaming industry, had a rivalry. But now, they had the same boss, so there wasn’t a rivalry anymore. Then, this boss went on to acquire Activision BF. This caused a significant stir within the gaming industry. Even among game companies worldwide, this was no small deal.

These game companies were already going through tough times, but now these games could create third-party benefits—good grief! You need to know, although the game’s creators received a 13% box office share, WY also had a 10% box office share in their contract as operating costs.

As for the domestic film industry, it was a whole other level of stimulation. All domestic directors and actors were left speechless. How were they supposed to play around this? A simple game video created by a player could premiere in the North Federation, and it even amounted to 1.1 billion Federal coins in box office sales. And this wasn’t even the final box office tally! Who knows what the final tally will be!

But as for them? Hell, what did their films amount to in foreign premieres? As for science fiction blockbusters and special effects blockbusters, those were even more ridiculous—the crude quality of the product they were pushing. You know the saying: “It’s not scary to meet someone who doesn’t understand your worth; it’s scary when your worth is compared with someone else’s value.” It was alright before. After all, everyone found it hard to make a name for themselves in the North Federation’s box office. Occasionally a movie would pop up, but it was only one.

But now? Even a non-professional’s work could create such a sensational effect. What were these directors and actors doing? Now it seemed, it wasn’t that Flame Nation films were uninteresting, but rather, they weren’t doing their job.

Regardless, from the moment this news broke, the national entertainment industry was utterly restless. Some directors even bizarrely began attacking the movie, claiming it contained zero artistic components and was merely showing off special effects with subpar camera work. However, such comments were almost killed by the wrath of netizens.

There wasn’t even a need for Finn Lewis to interject. The man came out to apologize on his own. You didn’t outperform a gamer, and you had the audacity to criticize their camera work? If your camera work is good, why don’t you produce a movie that could premiere in the North Federation? Why don’t you try earning some money from the people of the North Federation?

While there were diverging opinions within the industry, some reacted quickly. Even Finn Lewis didn’t foresee that some people in the circle would react so fast. However, for now, Finn Lewis put these matters aside. On the third day of the movie premiere in the North Federation, he drove to Jade City. It was Sunday, and Emma Lewis’ dad’s birthday. Finn Lewis hadn’t told Emma that he would be attending, but not just as Emma’s friend.
