The term "grossing" (from the verb "to gross") refers to the total sales or revenue a business is making. We use the verb "to gross" ("The company grossed 3 million dollars last year") as well as the noun "gross" ("Our gross from the east coast was less than we expected").
"To gross" means to "earn" or "make" money, not to spend it!

This statement is true. Bruno says "it seems I have a bit of cash lying around" meaning that he has enough money to finance the film. "(To have money) lying around" is to have money which is not being used, or is "idle".
This statement is false. Herbert tells Bruno, "You could be a silent partner. That means your name will be all over it but you don't have to do a thing." Herbert says that a "silent partner" is someone who gets a lot of recognition, but doesn't have to contribute any effort.
This statement is false. Bruno says "Mr. Broccoli, let's make a movie", which indicates that he is sure about making a film with Herbert, not that he hasn't committed to it.
This is a true statement. Herbert is confident that his new film will be a success. He says, "my last film grossed 100 million dollars at the box office and my next one is predicted to do the same."
