Rebirth of the Tech Madman

Chapter 229: Chinese entertainment content provider

As a businessman, financial newspapers like the "Wall Street Journal" are indispensable. In particular, philosophers have been favored by others recently, and Tang Huan cannot be ignored.

As a result, on this day, he habitually opened the latest issue of The Wall Street Journal, and unexpectedly found a full-page advertisement with the headline "wele," which means "welcome, ibm", which is simply "dissatisfaction, come to the fight." The domineering, bashing on his face.

Tang Huan was surprised that this famous advertisement appeared almost a year ahead of schedule, but after thinking about it, he was relieved, and ibm was recruited. The ignorant and fearless Steve Jobs was naturally sturdy. A handful.

Tang Huan picked up the phone and called Markkula, "Mike, I saw the advertisement in the Wall Street Journal today. The idea is good."

"That was Steve's idea." Markkula replied, remembering the situation in which Jobs had asked for advertising funds before, if it hadn't been for the other party to say "Look at how Tang Huan attracted the attention of others at the Moscow Olympics." , I really don't necessarily agree to such a grandstanding plan.

"This year's advertising budget alone has doubled compared to last year, reaching 4.5 million U.S. dollars, but still seeing an overrun." Markkula sighed helplessly.

"The smell of wine is also afraid of the deep alleys. Jobs's thinking is right." Tang Huan laughed. "The positioning of personal computers is closer to consumer products such as televisions. The traditional marketing method of ibm that focuses on large customers. Not suitable for this emerging industry."

Hearing Tang Huan's analysis like this, Markkula felt a little more relaxed. "Then see how effective the advertising is."

Tang Huan smiled and put down the phone. Muttered to himself. At the very least, bloggers will have enough eyeballs, and investors will have a deeper impression of Apple.

As for being ridiculed as self-defeating or touting as ambitious, it will only make sense until the future victory or defeat has been divided.

Looking at the "Wall Street Journal" in front of him, Tang Huan couldn't help itching his hands, full of creativity, picked up a pen and wrote a straightforward headline, "What can a personal computer do for us".

Since the birth of mainframe computers. The main client of computers is the country, which has since been adopted by large companies. The right to use such expensive equipment often represents a privilege to some extent.

It was not until the rise of small computers and even calculators in the 1970s that small and medium-sized enterprises began to personally experience the benefits of such technologies.

When those avant-garde people launch the personal computer toy, even though they keep saying that it will do a lot of things, it is actually just a set of very vague rhetoric. I don't have a spectrum at all in my heart, otherwise I wouldn't have waited until Tang Huan launched the spreadsheet software last year. As a result, it has risen rapidly in Silicon Valley.

In this article, Tang Huan, combined with the background in the 1980s in the original time and space, made a good prediction of the capabilities of personal computers. Starting from spreadsheets, word processing, databases, and expanding to image processing, electronic publishing, etc., each A number of new occupations will follow.

This series of descriptions immediately made the image of the personal computer concrete and vivid, and it was a disguised cheer for the upcoming Apple computer.

Tang Huan handed this manuscript to his subordinates to see if it could be submitted to The Wall Street Journal, and he set off for Xiangjiang.

...

Inside the tvb main station building, 63 Broadcast Road, Kowloon Tong.

The graceful Zhao Yazhi smiled and gestured at the two staff who were pleased to say hello to "Sister Zhi", and walked into the elevator, blocking the whispering talk outside.

...

"It is said that a divorced woman with a dragging oil bottle has a hard time, but if you look at people, you will get better."

"What do you know, she has found her backer, otherwise, why did she have to name her by name and ask her to shoot for the recent Chow Tai Fook advertisement? There are several front-line talents in the company."

"I said why she has gotten bigger and bigger recently. Many of the characters in TV dramas said she didn't like them, and she simply rejected them. Ms. Fang had to give her face because it turned out that there was someone on it."

"Hehe, you bastard, don't be so explicit, just keep your words. I heard that she has invested in a clothing company. Naturally, she doesn't have to work hard like other artists in filming. This job is just on the surface. It’s just beautiful. If you need to make progress, staying up late and working overtime is a common occurrence, and it’s easy for women to grow old.

"If the conditions are met, even if I work hard, I would be willing to go to the film, maybe I will have the opportunity to find a rich man."

"Go ahead and dream of your spring and autumn."

...

"Hello, Miss Fang, I'm here." Zhao Yazhi walked into Fang Yihua's office and said respectfully.

"Azhi is here, sit down quickly." Fang Yihua greeted enthusiastically.

As Shaw's agent, Fang Yihua has seen too many proud people in Shaw Brothers movies and tvb.

Therefore, she admired Zhao Yazhi's attitude towards people very much. Even though she climbed up the high branches, she arrogantly did not **** her tail and remained low-key as always.

Originally, it was a pity that the other party met people in private. As a result, not only did a TV series "Shang_Beach" make it more popular, but also his personal life has undergone earth-shaking changes. Look at the amorous feelings between the eyebrows, but millions Can't be fake.

After chatting a few gossips, Fang Yihua turned the topic around and said with a heart-felt: "Azhi, you are an old employee of the company, so there are some things, I want to ask you to help."

"Miss Fang is embarrassed, I am afraid I can't do anything." Zhao Yazhi's tone was cautious.

"That's not necessarily." Fang Yihua smiled meaningfully, "It depends on whether you are willing to agree?"

"Then please tell me." Zhao Yazhi nodded.

"The great success of "Shang_Beach" is obvious to all. It stands to reason that the sequel should be filmed while the heat has not faded, but DreamWorks has been inactive, which is really anxious." Fang Yihua raised Zhao. Yazhi patted her hand. "I would like to ask you to help probe Mr. Tang's tone. See if you can let tvb run the sequel of "Shanghai_Beach" alone."

Fang Yihua respects the copyright of "Shanghai Beach". It’s not because of how noble TVB’s morals are, it’s that Tang Huan has now established a firm foothold in Xiangjiang. The company under his name, Boss Huo, the charter king, Zheng Yutong, and other famous Chinese businessmen, as well as the Xiangjiang Police Department, have continuous business contacts. It's not easy to provoke.

After Zhao Yazhi understood Fang Yihua's intention to find herself, she couldn't help but fainted and said in a low voice, "This kind of thing. You should communicate with Miss Hu from DreamWorks."

"Hu Yinmeng, that little girl, is more difficult." Fang Yihua said angrily, and at the same time a trace of embarrassment flashed on his face, it seemed unspeakable.

Xiangjiang, a small place with a population of five or six million, is always indispensable for good deeds to criticize celebrities.

I don’t know when, a kind of gossip began to circulate in the Xiangjiang entertainment circle. After the two most powerful women in the industry, Shaw and TVB’s Fang Yihua and Jiahe’s Liu Lianghua, a new star has risen— -Hu Yinmeng of DreamWorks.

DreamWorks first filmed the TV series "Shang_Beach", which won the reputation and status recognized by everyone, and then created the female singer Zhang Delan. The latest album "Dead Promises", sales reached the platinum standard of 50,000 copies in one fell swoop. This is not enough, and many manga talents have been collected one after another.

Although everyone still doesn't understand what DreamWorks is doing for such an expansion, there is a big money owner behind it. It can't be an exaggeration to lose the family. Hu Yinmeng's status in the Xiangjiang entertainment circle is in the ascending stage, there is no doubt.

It is precisely because of hearing these gossips that Fang Yihua has a knot in her heart. He and Liu Lianghua are at least people of the same age, so they are actually compared to Hu Yinmeng, a little girl?

Especially when discussing business with him, listening to and looking at each other's teeth and mouth are sharp and graceful, and the jealousy of being a woman is spontaneous.

Feeling uncomfortable, with prejudices, and cooperation with shallow foundations that are based on each one's needs, it is even more impossible to talk about it.

However, Fang Yihua was able to enter the Shaw Brothers as a layman, starting from the grassroots procurement, and then succeeding in seizing power with Shaw's acquiescence, suppressing a bunch of old fried dough sticks to a pleasing eyebrow, naturally not bad in terms of dexterity .

Therefore, Fang Yihua intends to take a circuitous route, bypass Hu Yinmeng, and directly let Zhao Yazhi blow the pillow breeze at Tang Huan. The degree of favor of this Xiaohuadan under his own can be inferred from the speed of career development.

Zhao Yazhi bit her lip and thought for a moment, and finally lived up to Fang Yihua's expectations, nodded and agreed, "Miss Fang, I will try it, but I can't guarantee that there will be good news such as success."

"You can do your best." Fang Yihua laughed happily, and even squeezed Zhao Yazhi's tender face affectionately, "I believe that you are at Mr. Tang's, and the weight of your words is absolutely heavy."

Fang Yihua is notoriously strict inside tvb, so Zhao Yazhi is really uncomfortable with the intimacy in front of her, but she suppressed her emotions and did not dare to show it.

At the same time, Zhao Yazhi felt like a mirror in her heart. The recent changes in her situation were all due to that man.

...

When Zhao Yazhi returned to the apartment, she found Tang Huan still lying on the bed and asleep. It has been almost a long time since he got off the plane.

Zhao Yazhi sat gently in front of the dressing table, looked at herself in the mirror, smiled, and then carefully took out a few sketches and admired them affectionately, all of which were painted by Tang Huan before. , Every work is accompanied by impressive boudoir music.

Just as his mind was drifting, Zhao Yazhi suddenly heard Tang Huan on the bed turn around and vaguely asked, "Zhizhi, what is delicious, I can smell the aroma here."

"Stewed chicken soup." Zhao Yazhi leaned over, and naughtyly tapped Tang Huan's face with the tips of her hair.

Seeing the man's itching, she couldn't help laughing.

"Wow, if you don't let me sleep well, then I will sleep with you." Tang Huan, who opened his eyes, hugged the troublemaker.

"You are so vulgar." Zhao Yazhigang groaned, and her mouth was blocked.

In the kung fu of entanglement of tongue and tongue, Zhao Yazhi had already half untie the shirt.

"No, you are still hungry after you got off the plane." The woman murmured.

"When the exercise is over. Appetite will be better." The man impatiently came to the top of the mountain. The big bed was deterred by this kind of aura. There was a creaking whine.

...

"This bed should be replaced, it's so noisy." Tang Huan, who was refreshed, touched the woman's silk-satiny back lovingly.

"Originally, it was you bad guy who did it well." Zhao Yazhi took a bite of the man's chest muscle in embarrassment.

"Everything is my fault." Tang Huan laughed, "I'm really hungry, let me taste your craft."

The two were busy for a long time before they sat down at the dining room table.

Zhao Yazhi gently watched Tang Huan finish drinking a bowl of chicken soup. Inviting credit proudly: "Drink it, I put some supplements in it."

"Yes, yes." Tang Huan nodded again and again, "Zhizhi, you are so sweet. I really need to make up for it. I am busy working and farming, and I will inevitably lose my head."

"You just talk nonsense and don't look right." Zhao Yazhi blushed and poured another bowl of chicken soup.

Seeing Tang Huan chewing slowly this time, Zhao Yazhi remembered what Fang Yihua had entrusted to him, so she said: "A Huan. Today Miss Fang called me to her office specially and wanted me to help. Can tvb get the copyright and shoot the sequel of the TV series "Shanghai_Beach" alone."

"Tvb doesn't want to let go of any opportunity to extract surplus value." Tang Huan laughed dumbfounded after listening.

In the original time and space, following the 1980 version of "Shanghai_Beach", tvb immediately filmed "Shanghai Beach Sequel" and "Shanghai Beach Dragon and Tiger Fight", each with 20 episodes.

With the exception of Ding Li, played by Lu Liangwei, other aspects such as actors, plot, etc. have basically nothing to do with the first "Shanghai_Beach".

As for the response, just pull an older person from the street and ask his memory to know the result.

Although Tang Huan is a scheming businessman, he is first an engineer, especially sometimes, the stubbornness of technicians to pursue perfection erupts. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is an obsessive-compulsive disorder.

Therefore, once he thinks of the boutique he made by himself-"Shanghai_Beach", there will be a sequel to sell dog meat, and it is as if a caterpillar is crawling on his back, and he feels uncomfortable.

Are you short of money now? There is definitely no shortage. Then why do you want to block yourself?

"Zhizhi, what do you think is the flaw in this "Shanghai_Beach" filmed by DreamWorks?" Tang Huan did not directly refuse, but asked instead.

Zhao Yazhi supported her chin and thought for a moment, "I feel very perfect. Looking back on it now, it is really unbelievable. I remember that when I was filming, there were always some shortcomings, even wearing help, but it didn't."

"If I asked you to shoot a sequel, what would you do, such as the plot." Tang Huan continued to ask invitingly.

Zhao Yazhi immediately shook her head, "I don't know, I guess the plot should start anew."

"That's it, Zhizhi, you can see it very clearly." Tang Huan snapped his fingers. "TVB's so-called sequel is actually just to attract the audience by borrowing the sign of "Shanghai_Beach". ."

"Then I will reject Miss Fang tomorrow." Zhao Yazhi nodded resolutely.

"That's not necessary. You are only responsible for spreading the word. You can't take this offensive job." Tang Huan smiled and waved his hand. "Besides, you always have to give some of your face, if they are interested in making movies. , Can cooperate."

"What kind of face do I have, don't influence business for me." Zhao Yazhi persuaded embarrassingly.

"These are trivial things. You don't need to spend too much time on your brain cells, so it's settled." Tang Huan waved his hand magnificently.

...

On the second day, Tang Huan, accompanied by Hu Yinmeng, inspected the latest organizational structure of DreamWorks, which already has the prototype of a comprehensive Chinese-language entertainment content provider: TV, film, music, and the newly incorporated comics department. .

Xiangjiang's cartoons, like their counterparts in other regions, have experienced a period of chaos and prosperity that is mixed with violence, sex, emotions and so on.

Under social pressure, Xiangjiang officials formally passed the "Regulations on Bad Publications" in 1975 to clean up and rectify the industry.

Naturally, an earthquake occurred in the comics world. For example, Huang Yulang's "Little Hooligans" had to be renamed "Dragon Tiger Gate" because of excessive rendering of violence, flesh and blood, and eroticism. At the same time, bad content was avoided.

After this adjustment, the practitioners at least abide by the rules on the surface, and the Xiangjiang comics industry has also ushered in a new opportunity.

At present, the pattern of this field is roughly divided into two factions, respectively created Huang Yulang in "Dragon Tiger Gate" and Shangguan Xiaobao in "Bruce Lee".

The former’s apprentices are Qi Wenjie, Zhang Wanyou, Mao Mingwei, etc., known as the “Yulin Army”; the latter’s brothers include Shangguan Xiaowei and Shangguan Xiaoqiang, who become the “Shangguan Family”.

Huang Yulang has become a climate ~www.wuxiahere.com~ Ambitiously established the Yulang Group in 1979, and began to embark on the golden road of "putting the money you earn into your own pocket", obviously, soliciting hopeless.

Moreover, Huang Yulang, a person with both professional talents and business acumen, after working hard to his current position, is basically unable to accept the situation of being subjugated.

But it doesn't matter, there are still a lot of manga talents that can be included.

Practitioners in this field had a harder life in the early days. Take Huang Yulang as an example. He dropped out of school at the age of 13 and worked as an intern in the Times Comic Daily, and his treatment included no salary, board and lodging. .

Other peers are not much better, such as Shangguan Xiaobao, even if they start a company, their business is bleak, otherwise they will not be acquired by Huang Yulang in the next few years in the original time and space.

Hu Yinmeng didn't waste too much spitting, and took out the DreamWorks check directly, so the members of the "Shangguan Family" basically didn't run away, all of them were in the bag. (To be continued...)
