Rebirth of the Tech Madman

"Really? This is really terrible. Reading the novel," Tang Huan was walking in front of him, with an imperceptible joke flashing in his eyes.

"I don’t know what’s wrong. This year, the enthusiasm of the video game industry is getting higher and higher. There are often game producers in Hollywood who go to negotiate film licensing. Recently, it seems that science fiction subjects are the most popular. What's more, when George Lucas and I were chatting about this topic, I suddenly found that ea seemed to have forgotten about the cooperation." Spielberg was chattering, with a resentment in his tone.

"I remember, Lucas' second "Star Wars" movie "" has also authorized the production of video games." Tang Huan nodded, and after sitting at the desk, he gently tapped the table with his fingers. Thoughtful.

Last year, ea's video game based on the movie "007" easily sold millions of copies, creating a golden path for the industry and attracting countless eager imitators.

The current market for game cassettes is roughly: the average physical manufacturing cost for each copy is between 45 and 6 US dollars, and the advertising costs such as packaging and publicity are between 1 and 2 US dollars. The price that wholesalers get is Around $19.

Calculated in this way, the electronic game "007" alone has formed an industry chain of hundreds of millions of dollars, and ea has achieved sales of at least close to 100 million dollars by relying on wholesale cassettes alone.

As the owner of the Xiaobawang game console, ea's game development advantages on the platform are self-evident. The average intellectual cost of each copy is lower than the advertising cost, which interprets the concept of huge profits to the fullest.

Now other colleagues have long been ignorant of ea's ability to attract gold, and it is wise to follow the trend and drink soup.

Founded in 1883, the veteran toy manufacturer hers. After breaking into the home video game industry, he focused on George Lucas' second "Star Wars" movie, "The Empire Strikes Back", which was released in 1980. And became the first authorized company, the electronic game of the same name "" has been launched this year.

After the hardware development platform of the Xiaobawang game console was tragically escaped from prison. Countless third-party game developers have poured into the world's largest electronic entertainment world.

What's more, some unauthorized compatible game consoles manufactured outside the United States were sneaked into the United States and sold at low prices. Although their graphics performance is completely incomparable with the authentic Cassidy game consoles, they have actually formed a certain degree. The impact.

The hers company’s game publishing platform, through this Dongfeng, not only includes the Atari 2600, but also includes the Xiaobawang game console. Although the game has been developed with mixed reputations, the user base of game consoles is there, which does not delay making money.

In short, in addition to continuing the collective madness this year, the US home electronic game industry has also regarded movie adaptation games as a holy book.

Lucas's "Star Wars" has become a sweet pastry, and when Spielberg's "et aliens" is released, it will naturally become the next hot spot.

Of course, ea can obtain electronic game authorization by virtue of its first-mover advantage, but now the home electronic game industry in the United States has been broken. Judging from the intelligence collected by the market research department, an obvious deterioration is that. Distributors in the game industry began to complain because they were forced to complete sales tasks.

In the context of this kind of building will fall. Even if "et Alien" has the bonus of the movie halo, its video game is difficult to achieve. In that case, it might as well be used to slay opponents whose grievances are growing.

Of course, it takes skill to catch a fish, just like before starting to clean up one of the symbols of Xiangjiang’s colonial rule, Yihe needs to play a role of "unbearable and no longer to bear".

"Steven, you may not be clear. The affairs I need to deal with are more complicated, so it is impossible to follow up everything. After ea is listed, it will inevitably become a little arrogant. I start to get tired of the things that I will explain. "

Having said that, Tang Huan sighed. "I guess the psychology of these guys is like this. Your "et alien" hasn't been released yet, and it's not a series of movies like "007". There are successful previous works for reference, so they were taken lightly. Come down."

"After the company develops, it is inevitable to suffer from the disease of large enterprises." Spielberg nodded in understanding, "Or, I will take the initiative to contact ea."

"How can you be so wronged?" Tang Huan waved his hand to stop the understanding Spielberg, "I'll just remind them."

Tang Huan patted the table and snorted heavily, "Steven, I am here to make an agreement, which is an explanation for you. If ea still has no fruitful actions by the end of this year, then follow the movie "et outside "Starman" triples the budget standard, and compensates Amperin Entertainment for $30 million."

"This is too exaggerated." Spielberg repeatedly declined, "Everyone is so happy to cooperate, there is no need to be so strict, just communicate more."

"No, it must be like this." Tang Huan insisted solemnly: "Although ea is a bit troublesome in business at present, it is too smooth in general. As the creator, I must teach it a lesson."

The box office of the movie often carries a kind of luck. No one knows which cloud is raining in the sky. The random factor is too great, so Hollywood will form a complete set of business operation mechanism to maximize To reduce the risk of failure.

Spielberg's confidence in his "et aliens" does not mean that he believes that his works can create considerable economic benefits.

Therefore, this agreement of Tang Huan made Spielberg feel a little uneasy. After all, when the project of "et aliens" was determined before, the other party had already used a third party to be eligible to compete for the film unless they were willing to pay 30 million US dollars. The conditions of authorization lock the right to adapt the game in advance.

Tang Huan waved his hand, indicating that this topic is over, and then asked about the detailed operation of "et Alien".

"Et Alien" will be previewed in Houston, Texas. It will also participate in this year's Cannes Film Festival. The official release time is set for the summer file starting in June." Spielberg invested huge resources in the United States. The operation is very grateful, after all, "et aliens" was in the beginning of the project. He was regarded as naive by Columbia Pictures and refused to invest.

After Spielberg left, Lin Qingxia walked out of the lounge next to her. Curiously asked: "It can be seen that you don't pay much attention to "et Alien"."

"That's because it's very valuable." Tang Huan put his arms around Lin Qingxian's slender waist, let her sit on his lap, and then said: "The Cold War has been so many years, even if the United States is singing and dancing, you will occasionally experience it. The atmosphere of war, the seeds of hope for peace, I don’t know how much time has been buried in my heart. This little and fresh "et alien" is very likely to cater to the psychological needs of the public."

"So you asked me to follow this project, in addition to learning something, but also a little bit of fame?" Lin Qingxia looked into Tang Huan's eyes with a smile.

"You are already a big star. What kind of prestige, broaden your horizons, and broaden your horizons with the times." Tang Huan joked, raising his hand to hang Lin Qingxian's cheek.

"If it weren't for showing my face in the TV series "The Martial Arts Emperor" last year, I guess many people would have forgotten me." Lin Qingxian's tone was filled with melancholy.

In the original time and space, Lin Qingxian at this period has already ended his emotional confusion. After returning to Asia, I continued my acting career and took over many inexplicable movies. Groping about how to transform.

Now Lin Qingxian is arranged by Tang Huan to join Amperin Entertainment Company to follow up the operation of "et Alien" throughout the process.

Tang Huan, who kept wandering around with his big hands in his arms, felt like a mirror in his heart. Lin Qingxian missed the working environment in Asia.

In particular, after Deng Lijun returned to the Chinese cultural base in Asia, he made a comeback and became more vigorous than before. As a good sister of the same disease who fell into a trough in his career in the same year, Lin Qingxian couldn't help but look hot.

"After "et Alien" is released. The Asian side will also fight for the box office. You can go back and have a look at that time." Tang Huan comforted. While holding Lin Qingxian, walked into the lounge again.

"No. It's not a safe period. I don't want to be like Azhi, with a big belly and can't do anything." Lin Qingxia twisted and refused to cooperate.

On the eve of the Lunar New Year this year, Zhao Yazhi stayed with Tang Huan in Yanjing for a period of time. As a result, the seeds were sown every night under the chants and drastic cuts.

Zhao Yazhi, who attached great importance to this, directly pushed off the heroine of the TV series "East is the Sea", and in order to avoid reporters, made a special trip to San Francisco to have a baby.

During Lin Qingxian's participation in the filming of the TV series "The Martial Arts Emperor's Flower", she was taken care of by Zhao Yazhi in terms of work, life, language, etc., so she naturally visited her frequently.

"That's just for me to verify, how likely there is to be twins," Tang Huan said sensibly.

"I won't accompany you to verify it, ah..." Lin Qingxian, who had been messing around, stopped all of a sudden, glared at Tang Huan, furiously, "Why did you really go in."

Tang Huan blinked his eyes innocently, "Don't blame me, who made you move, the connection succeeded in a confused manner."

"You little bastard." Lin Qingxia patted the man on the back with shame.

Tang Huan took advantage of the situation and slammed forward, and all the resistance suddenly vanished.

...

Tang Huan didn't stay too much in San Francisco and Silicon Valley, and came to Los Angeles non-stop. There are some things here that he needs to ask himself.

First of all, ea, taking advantage of the current video game market, continues to spend a lot of money to buy land in Los Angeles to build a game-themed entertainment park.

The originality can be said to be derived from Disneyland. If you want to make the game not become a toilet paper toss when you run out, then the management of related culture is indispensable. Think about how the Blizzard Carnival in the original time and space was sought after. Know the importance of game culture.

The reason why the ea game theme park is located in Los Angeles, rather than its own base camp San Francisco, is because the population base here is larger, the city size ranks among the top three in the United States, and the spending power has a reliable guarantee.

Moreover, Los Angeles, which has Hollywood, cannot replace its advantages in cultural centers. Naturally, ea must fully consider such soft factors.

Another point is that in the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics, if you don't seize the opportunity on the world stage so close, it is a waste of opportunity.

Tang Huan took the plan and drove around the park a few times. After confirming that the area he requested for the Chinese game was not compromised at all, he left here with great satisfaction.

Next, Tang Huan began to question the operation of Lianmei and MGM. You know, starting this year, he intends to use the resources of these two companies to officially promote the Chinese-language movies in his hands, so he must take good control of this power.

At the 54th Oscar Awards Ceremony held in Dorothy Chandler Hall in Los Angeles on March 29 this year, "Golden Pond", which has a good box office reputation, won a total of 10 nominations, and finally won Three awards including Oscar for Best Adapted Screenplay, Oscar for Best Actor and Oscar for Best Actress,

Catherine Hepburn, who played the heroine~www.wuxiahere.com~, won the fourth Oscar in her life and set an unattainable record.

Henry Fonda, who played the actor, was seriously ill during the filming, but with his superb acting skills and deep affection, he interprets the character of Norman in the film vividly and touchingly, and thus ascended to the throne of the Oscar winner as he wished.

In the past years, Henry Fonda has been opposed to actors fighting for Oscars to hurt his peace, so some people speculate that this may be the reason why he has not won the award for many years.

When Jane Fonda took the place of the seriously ill father Henry Fonda to accept the award, all kinds of rumors naturally disappeared with the wind.

As the driving force behind all these achievements, Lianmei undoubtedly benefited a lot. Correspondingly, Universal Pictures, which had a rivalry with Tang Huan for game copyright, began to slowly decline after being unknowingly digging into the wall. Spielberg's "Jaws" began to accumulate the advantages, and gave it away without knowing it.

To Tang Huan, who was also well-arranged this year, looking at United American President Andy Albert and MGM President David Beagleman, he smiled smugly and asked, "Have you ever thought, who is the strongest in Hollywood this year?" to be continued)
