Chapter 184 - Split the Money, Six Million Each!
“Mr. Jon. The executives of the live broadcast platform contacted us during this drill.”
“They said that they want to sign a long-term contract with us for the live broadcast of the drill. If you agree, they can modify the live broadcast share.”
“Including the last exercise, they will give you a share of 90% of the profit from the live broadcast. The livestream platform only wants 10% of the profits.”
“So, I just want to ask, what do you think about this matter?”
The station manager’s voice continued to ring out.
I get 90% of the profits?” Jon frowned slightly.
This was something that Jon had not expected.
Jon alone got 90% of the profit seemed absurd but it still made sense.
After all, every live broadcast that Jon participated in during the exercise was massively popular.
Moreover, the number of viewers for the Florida drill had already reached 120 million! That was ridiculously number of viewers.
Moreover, because of this drill, the livestream platform had attracted many newly registered users.
Under such circumstances, the livestream platform had to take it seriously.
After all, if they were too late to offer a generous offer to the city television station, the city television station would very likely be poached by other live broadcast platforms that offered better conditions.
After all, all people were drooling over money.
Even if a smaller streaming platform taken control of the live broadcast of Jon’s drill, with such terrifying popularity and the ability to attract money, it was not an exaggeration to say that this small platform would grow into a mainstream live streaming platform.
After all, the audience wanted to see Jon.
To them, it didn’t matter which platform was going to broadcast the drill.
All they needed to do was to sign up a new account, if they didn’t have Jon, they wouldn’t watch it.
So, letting Jon live broadcast on the live broadcast platform was a sure win.
Even if they didn’t want to split the profit from gifts, the platform was willing to do it.
“Mr. Jon, if you are not satisfied with this 90%, we can still negotiate with the platform. If it is really not possible, we can also change to another live broadcast platform.”
Seeing that Jon did not react for a moment, the station manager continued to say.
“I have no objection with that. But as for the specific condition, I will leave it to you to talk with the live broadcast platform. When I return to New York, I will go to the television station to sign the contract.” Jon said calmly.
The platform was willing to give him 90% share of profit from his drill, and they were also willing to pay the share received from the previous drill to Jon.
Jon was still quite satisfied.
“Okay, Mr. Jon. When you return to New York, I’ll get someone to pick you up.”
“Okay.” Jon replied and then hung up the phone.
“Boss, who called you?” Will Smith asked from the back seat.
Actually, from Jon’s conversation, it was not difficult to guess that it was a call from Gal Gadot or the television station.
The reason why he had to ask was because the car was too dull.
Winning the drill should be an exciting thing. The silence in the car was not fit to the occasion.
Therefore, Will Smith, who spoke the most among the five of them, had to break the silence.
“The New York City television station is calling. In order to retain right to livestream the drill, the live broadcast platform updated my share from the livestream.” Jon answered.
He did not hide it from them.
After all, there was nothing that could not be said.
The few of them had participated in two drills with him. They could be considered his friends.
Moreover, they knew about his participation in the live broadcast.
“Boss, you’ve earned quite a bit from these two drills, right?” Will Smith said with a chuckle.
Whether it was the Pennsylvania Police Department or the Florida Police Department, they all made a decision, which was not getting the live broadcast’s profit share.
Although in the drill, Will Smith and the other three acted as robbers like Jon, they were from the Pennsylvania Police Department.
Therefore, they could not get in the share as well.
Now, Will Smith asked because he was curious.
He did not mean anything else.
After all, Jon had spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on the hotel they stayed in before the drill.
He was too generous.
“I did earn a lot.”
“The four of you also participated in two drills with me. You did well. I can’t treat you badly. I’ll give each of you six million. Give me the card number of your bank tomorrow. I’ll transfer it to you guys in two days.” Jon said with a smile.
The moment he said this, the other four people lost their mind.
“Six… Six Million? Boss, you’re not kidding, right? Six million for each of us. That adds up to twenty-four million. We don’t even have that kind of money when we rob banks.” Will Smith was shocked.
His face was full of disbelief.
Even if they were really robbed ten million US dollars, after the division, each of them would only get two million!
Now, Jon had said that he would give six million to each of them!
It was three times more than robbing banks!
“Do I look like I’m joking? Give me the bank card number tomorrow, and the six million will probably be in your bank account the day after tomorrow.” Jon said slowly.
Although he did not know how much money he would earn from the live broadcast of this drill.
It should not be less than the last time.
After all, this drill was more excited and intense than the last two drills.
He had even killed the police commander!
The number of gifts given by the audience would be huge.
Given six million to each of them was actually not a lot.
“Boss, that’s not what I meant. At this time, the police department will not get the share from the live broadcast. So, this is all your money. You don’t have to give it to us.”
“Moreover, we can’t take this money. If the commissioner finds out about this, he will immediately punish us.” Will Smith said seriously.
The reason he asked Jon was not because he wanted money.
He was simply curious.
This was also because he was familiar with Jon. Otherwise, randomly asking how much money a person earn was a very impolite thing to do.
So, he was afraid that Jon would misunderstand and quickly explained.
“I’m your boss. It’s completely up to me to give you money. You just need to keep it.”
“As for your commissioner, I’ll talk to him.”
“You’ve worked hard during these two drills. You deserve it.” Jon said calmly.
Since he had decided to give Will Smith and the other three a share, he naturally wouldn’t take back his decision.
As for the commissioner Pennsylvania State Police, it was just a matter of words.
Hearing Jon’s words, the four of them fell silent.
Six million.
Who wouldn’t be tempted by it?
Although they were the cream of the crop in the police station, their monthly salary wasn’t much.
If they wanted to save six million, how many years would it take?
