Rebirth of the Tech Madman

"The pace of progress is also methodical. The "Transformers" co-produced with Hasbro is a very representative example. The cartoon series with computer animation technology has been added, and the visual effects have been improved. There are many in the United States and Asia. After the TV broadcast, the response was overwhelming, and the movie version is already in operation."

Having said that, Tang Huan smiled and asked, "Why, Stephen, do you have any good ideas?"

"I'm consulting a friend. He has just taken over the specific management of Disney's animation production department and wants to seek a change." Spielberg replied.

"This friend you are talking about is not Jeffrey Katzenberg, right?" Tang Huan said casually.

"I was just about to introduce his situation. I didn't expect it, you guessed it." Spielberg showed a look of surprise on his face.

"They are all the elites who left Paramount this year. Of course I noticed." Tang Huan beat a haha, "Barry Diller was invited to CNN by Ted Turner, Michael Eisner I went to Disney with Jeffrey Katzenberg, which is also a good career story."

Since the big boss Charles Bludorn died on a private jet due to a heart attack, Paramount's management has been in turmoil.

Tang Huan took a fancy to Barry Diller's talents in television networks and dug it into CNN; as for other elites, although they could be taken away in one wave, he did not do that.

For one thing, Tang Huan’s current staff can be described as strong and strong. He has recruited some talents that are not irreplaceable. It is easy to waste resources and create suspicions due to dissatisfaction with the job arrangement.

In addition, Barry Diller is very capable. During Paramount's tenure as executive officer, he brought out a group of outstanding disciples, including Michael Eisner and Jeffrey Katzenberg.

You know, in the original time and space. Michael Eisner has been a powerful executive officer in Disney for many years. Jeffrey Katzenberg also holds an important position at Disney. Later, because he did not get the position he wanted, he and his old friend Michael Eisner fell out. Just jump out and do it alone and become one of the founders of DreamWorks.

This shows how outstanding their gang is. If the team were to be dug up as a whole, Tang Huan worried that the tail would not get out of the way and Ted Turner could not control it. It would be counterproductive, and that's why Barry Diller was left alone.

Because of this, Michael Eisner and Jeffrey Katzenberg both went to Disney to flex their muscles in accordance with the historical trajectory.

"That's true.`" Spielberg nodded suddenly. Turner Broadcasting Company and media tycoon Murdoch competed for Metropolitan Media's cable TV network. In the end, it was said that they won at a price of nearly 100 million U.S. dollars. , And Barry Diller is the executive officer of this freshly released fourth-largest television network in the United States, and of course he has heard about it.

"Jeffrey Katzenberg believes that Disney's animation department has been doing nothing in recent years. It has nothing to do with its production methods that are not up to date, so he wanted to seek a breakthrough."

Spielberg explained in detail, "He got to know the animation department of Lucasfilm, but he was not satisfied; he heard that d2's computer animation technology was exhibited, so he entrusted me to consult."

"Then you are looking for the right person. In terms of computer animation production capabilities, d2 has a Fangyuan workstation on the hardware and its own special program on the software, which solves many needs including ea games. If Disney wants to seek technology outsourcing Such cooperation, there is no problem at all." Tang Huan has roughly guessed Jeffrey Katzenberg's thinking. So he waved his hand confidently.

Since the two founders of Walt Disney and Roy Oliver Disney passed away successively, Disney, like other established Hollywood companies, has experienced frequent crises.

In terms of its own performance, after entering the era. Seventy percent of Disney's revenue comes from theme parks. It is conceivable what it means to put the cart before the horse.

And hostile acquisitions from the outside, including this year's most critical situation, are also pushing Disney step by step.

This kind of coveting from capital is not a believable man. It's buying pigs and killing pigs completely. Once it succeeds, it will never revitalize the declining film industry, and will only use a series of asset splits to make a profit in the extremely prosperous theme park business.

How MGM was crippled in the hands of Kirk Kirklian is the most appropriate example.

Therefore, Disney's board of directors has completely lost confidence in the management, and made a major personnel adjustment this year.

Seriously speaking, this is also a power struggle within the Disney family, because the former Disney president and executive officer Ronald William Miller, the son-in-law of the company founder Walt Disney, moved to "save Dinis." "This coup was made by Roy Edward Disney, the son of another founder, Roy Oliver Disney. The former was the cousin of the latter.

Roy Oliver Disney’s power fighting skills are undoubtedly very clever. He combined with Disney’s largest individual shareholder Sid Beth to oust Ronald William Miller, and then let Michael from Paramount Eisner served as the executive officer and chairman of the board of directors, and Frank Wells from Warner served as the president, which allowed the members of the Disney family to withdraw from the management. `

From the original time and space point of view, Roy Edward Disney did so to make Disney show stronger, and from the current point of view, Disney clearly has to work hard to revitalize its film business.

This also means that there is another driver for the application of computer animation, and Tang Huan is also happy to see it. He is laying out the IT field in terms of hardware, software, standards, etc. It is a good thing to have one more major customer.

However, in terms of interests, the competition should not be soft, nor should he be careless. He has been both a referee and an athlete for a long time, and there is no need to be soft in Disney.

While Tang Huan listened carefully, various calculation thoughts flashed through his mind.

Finally he joked: "Actually, Jeffrey Katzenberg could come to me by himself, so why bother to transfer through you, and I am not afraid of owing you a favor."

Spielberg explained tactfully: "Disney has just escaped a hostile takeover, and now there are still some lingering fears. Jeffrey Katzenberg has just taken office. We also need to take care of all aspects of fragile emotions."

After a moment, Tang Huan laughed loudly, "It seems that I am a Silicon Valley tycoon. In the past few years, I have been buying and buying in Hollywood, but I have created a notoriety."

After stopping the laughter, Tang Huan said to Spielberg earnestly: "Stephen, you might as well tell Jeffrey Katzenberg that I'm already full. I can't eat large pieces of fat."

He released this wind to the outside world, not just making smoke bombs, but real thoughts.

Lianmei, Orion, Twentieth Century Fox, MGM, these companies are so-so, but after being integrated under the Yanle Group, their resources complement each other and each has their own positioning. They have united to become one of the likes of Paramount and Warner. When the Hollywood power is over, the next step is to cultivate new crops in a targeted manner, rather than blindly further mergers and expansions.

...

September's "Phantom of the Tomb: Rage of the Dragon Emperor" was released in North America. As well as the 3rd San Francisco Music Festival and other activities, Tang Huan did not rush to rush, and set off directly to South Korea.

However, this time he took a regular flight, and the Silicon Valley One was reserved for his aunt Tang Yun, his aunt Wenya and a bunch of children.

During the Los Angeles Olympics, his uncle Han An Yong took his family to the United States. After checking the recovery after the previous operation, he took the lead back to Xiangjiang to be busy with his work, leaving his wife, children, and Tang Yun who was back to Da 6 to worship his ancestors.

In fact, this is also a matter full of family troubles. Aunt Tang Yun must be accompanied by Lin Fengjiao, Jin Ming, who is more than three years old. Jin Liang can also accompany, but Jin Chang and Jin Ge, who are one year older, cannot stay with them for the same reason they are younger.

Bring it or not? This is really a nerve-wracking question. But the root of the trouble lies with Tang Huan, and her aunt Tang Yun is too lazy to pay attention to it, and everyone else stays away.

Fortunately at this time. Deng Lijun accompanied France’s first lady Danielle Mitterrand after visiting impoverished areas in Africa, and returned to the United States to rest. He directly stated: “My child hasn’t seen me for a while, so I’m a little bit more productive, so where I’m not going, I’m going to accompany them well."

With this fair reason. Tang Huan finally breathed a sigh of relief, so he hurried to go to Korea first, and let the rest of the housework take care of himself.

He came to South Korea this time, mainly for three things: the first is the intention of confirming the sponsorship status with the 1988 Seoul Olympics Organizing Committee; the second is to visit Samsung; and the last is a private matter, sending Nelijin to coach the Korean women's gymnastics team.

At this year's Los Angeles Olympics, South Korea ranked tenth on the gold medal list, ahead of the United Kingdom and France. Such a performance is very rare.

You know, there are as many delegations attending this Olympic Games. Among them, only 43 can get medals. Only 43 are on the medal list. The remaining delegations that have not won medals even showed their faces on this world platform. , There is no chance to be noticed by the audience or talk about it.

South Korea’s current Olympic sports are only archery and judo, and they are of world-class level. As for other items, I can't get it. This obviously does not match the identity of the host, so it is natural to recruit troops and actively prepare for war.

After several rounds of telephone communication and negotiations during the Los Angeles Olympics, both South Korea and Nelkin were personally satisfied and decided on their intentions.

For the thirsty South Korean sports world, Nelkin is really an undesirable candidate. The world champion's excellent qualifications and the cultural advantage of the Korean nationality can hardly find a place to find fault.

Gymnastics is a project with a large investment of resources. It can be said that it is a game belonging to a big country. Although South Korea is eager to use the Seoul Good Luck Fair to show its international image, it is not too unrealistic. Its requirements for Nelikin are simple, and the goal is to achieve a zero breakthrough in Olympic medals. The other is the gold medal breakthrough in the 1986 Asian Games.

After listening to Nelkin talk about his preparations, Tang Huan smiled and said: "This opportunity is still very rare. If it hadn't been for South Korea to host the Asian Games and the Olympics consecutively, it wouldn't be such a big spend in sports construction."

From the original perspective of time and space, no matter how overwhelming the scandal of the Seoul Olympics in 1988, South Korea will benefit infinitely. With the help of this event, Gein has forced South Korea, which is full of domestic contradictions, to make continuous progress.

I have to say that sometimes, the role of the Olympic Games is so magical.

"I feel that I have great confidence in making a breakthrough in performance." For this coaching, Nelkin seemed confident.

"You should do some psychological preparations in advance. The pressure is often artificial, not purely technical." Tang Huan reminded.

In large-scale sports events hosted by South Korea, it has always had the habit of taking advantage of the home court and widely using lineman tactics to help its players win in the game.

Therefore, it is not difficult to imagine that South Korea is very eager for results, even impatient and impatient. If Nelkin doesn't pay attention to work skills, it may fall from the clouds quickly.

"If there is pressure, there will be pressure. At least I can choose what I like freely." Nelkin nodded with conscience, "For the Los Angeles Olympics, I went to meet with the Romanian delegation. Nadia Comaneci, who came to the United States, has retired and doesn't need to practice hard for her grades, but she still feels uncomfortable at all, even her travel is restricted."

As the two most famous women's gymnastics world champions of the same era~www.wuxiahere.com~Nelkin officially retired after the Los Angeles Olympics and entered college for further studies. Nadia Comaneci’s last competition was in 1981. The International University Games held in Bucharest in 2015.

As her coach left the United States, Nadia Comaneci was also implicated. Although she did not play in international competitions, she did not officially announce her retirement until this year.

Tang Huan said sympathetically: "This era, this world, is such a living environment. Once a choice is made, whether it is active or passive, we can only endure it in silence. We can live well on our own, and don't let our troubles increase. Up."

"Indeed, living in the present is the most important thing." Nelkin smiled with deep conviction, "Don't talk about these trivial things, there must be a lot of things to be busy after you get off the plane, so take time to rest."

Although the environment in the first-class cabin is not as superior as that of Silicon Valley One, it is comfortable enough.

When the plane landed in Seoul, Tang Huan walked out of the cabin door vigorously and saw the warm welcome team outside. (To be continued.)
