MTL - The Growth of the Richest Man-Chapter 161 5th and 6th visitor

The fifth of the seven partners Buffett invited was Bruckheimer, Zhang Yong's old acquaintance. Bruckheimer, as Hollywood's ace producer, and as Hollywood's power class, gave Zhang Yong some stumbling blocks when he first entered Hollywood. However, at that time, Zhang Yong, with the help of Spielberg and Andrew Morgan, successfully crossed this hurdle, and left behind last year's Hollywood classics "Smart Ghost Record" and "Buried Alive" .

Hollywood in 2009 will be a crazy year. Since the beginning of the year, in this dream land, Mr. Eastwood first created his own box office record with "Classic Car" at the age of 79, and then a British guy named Danny Boyle won the Oscar for the best The Golden Man of the Film Awards. This year's finale was James Cameron's "Avatar", which became the first 3D movie in Hollywood (the first 3D movie in the world was snatched by Zhang Yong's "Wolf Warrior", but because of The movie "Wolf Warrior" has a relatively heavy national feeling, and Hollywood did not introduce it), and the North American market ushered in the first ten billion dollar year.

Because of the popularity of "Avatar", Zhang Yong, who provided 3D technical support for "Avatar", has also become very famous in Hollywood. Then, those ubiquitous reporters also took Zhang Yong's classic work "Smart · Ghost Records" and "Buried Alive", as well as the things that Bruckheimer once set up for Zhang Yong were dug up.

In the second half of the year, competitive blockbusters such as "Transformers 2", the comedy "The Hangover", "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" and "Crescent Moon" will all be released. And Bruckheimer, for which he serves as the producer of the animated film "Guinea Pigs", will also be released. However, due to the exposure of Zhang Yong's time, Bruckheimer is now known for suppressing newcomers, and his reputation is very bad, so it is possible that the films he made will also be boycotted by many audiences.

The point is, since the release of "Buried Alive", Zhang Yong has indeed been involved in the filming of the film for more than a year, and he has not participated in the work related to the film, so in the eyes of many audiences, they are very skeptical, is it? Zhang Yong was banned? But the conscience of heaven and earth, although Bruckheimer is the most powerful person in Hollywood, he has no ability, with the support of Spielberg and Andrew Morgan, to ban such a powerful new film and television talent who is also an international figure what!

In order to restore his image, Bruckheimer needed people at the time to refute the rumors personally. As long as it can be proved that Zhang Yong was really not blocked, the films produced by Bruckheimer will definitely be released well. The best way to refute the rumor is to ask Zhang Yong to make another movie. Through his good relationship with Buffett, Bruckheimer finally got on the line of Zhang Yong under the recommendation of Laoba. In order to allow Zhang Yong to direct himself, he even bought the "The Sorcerer's Apprentice" with a lot of money. The script was brought over, and I wanted Zhang Yong to shoot.

filming? It was Zhang Yong's first step to establish himself in Hollywood and even earn money to establish himself in the United States, but he rejected the script. It's not because the script is bad, but because if he accepts this script, he will definitely choose Bruckheimer as the producer. In this case, no matter how popular Zhang Yong's films are, they are still working for others. You know, Zhang Yong himself is also a very famous screenwriter, and he can write and direct a movie by himself.

Zhang Yong doesn't accept Bruckheimer's script? It doesn't matter. As long as Zhang Yong promises to continue making movies, it is enough for Bruckheimer. Moreover, Bruckheimer also provides some possible support for Zhang Yong. As long as Zhang Yong can start filming before the end of June, then his suppression of newcomers' entrepreneurship will be a problem. Will be self-defeating! And his movies can be released on a scheduled date.

After solving Bruckheimer's problem again, Zhang Yong encountered the next problem.

What's the next movie you make? Zhang Yong already had a plan in mind.

"Mr. Zhang Yong, your Hammer 3 phone was released a month ago, congratulations to you." Jobs first congratulated Zhang Yong, but in his tone, there was a slow disdain, "It is expected that within this week, we Apple The company will also release the latest iPhone 3GS mobile phone, which is expected to have a huge impact on your mobile phone sales."

"Oh, how do you say it?" Zhang Yong and the others may not have such a big competitive relationship, but Zhang Yong and Jobs are completely competitive, and the two of them have their main business. buy cell phone!

"The functions of the Hammer phone are also available in our Apple 3GS phones." Jobs was still very disdainful. "Moreover, our phones will also have some features that you don't have. For example, our company has independent chip production capabilities. Of course, you The mobile phone has a large screen mobile phone, which we do not have~www.novelbuddy.com~ But I don't think it is necessary to make a super large screen mobile phone, so a large screen mobile phone, it is better to buy a mini computer directly! But, yours The battery control technology is actually leading, which we are very envious of. So can we cooperate?”

Seeing that Zhang Yong didn't frown, Jobs seemed to be thinking, thinking that he was talking about something, and then continued: "We Apple can buy your company, or just buy your technology. Of course, if you don't want your company, we will Apple can also leave you a part of the stock. I heard that you are worrying about $5 billion now? I can buy 51% of your company for $5 billion, and you don’t have to worry about money anymore.”

buy a company? Up to now, Zhang Yong has bought dozens of companies, but he has never sold one. Is there a possibility of spitting out the meat that entered his mouth?

However, after all, the man opposite is a mobile phone giant. If he competes with him, the current Zhang Yong still has no chance of winning. So under the witness of two financial giants, a banker, and a media figure, the two reached an important agreement in the mobile phone industry:

Hammer Mobile promises that as long as Jobs is still at Apple, Hammer Mobile will not enter the North American market (Zhang Yong does not care about this clause, anyway, Jobs will die of cancer if he lives for a year or two at most); Hammer Mobile uses battery control technology Authorize Apple to use it (Zhang Yong knows that Qualcomm is also developing power-saving technology, and it will be successfully developed. Even if Zhang Yong does not authorize, Apple will still be able to obtain similar technology in the near future); in return, Apple mobile phone will authorize Apple's fingerprint recognition technology The Hammer phone is used, and at the same time, it promises not to cut prices in China (the biggest advantage of the Hammer phone compared to the Apple phone is the price advantage).
