Start from 1980

Chapter 375
"What? ILM was acquired?" Su Chen was also surprised.

To be honest, he really didn't know about it.

I was even a little confused, the original space-time Lucas was not sold to Disney until 2012, how could it be sold now?
Could it be that something happened?
He hurriedly asked, "Have you heard of which company or person it is?"

"I don't know." Stan shook his head: "Both parties are very silent about this transaction, and there is not much publicity. I only heard about it from an old friend."

This is a bit outrageous.

It cost more than 20 million to acquire 6th Century Fox, and now someone bought Industrial Light and Magic for [-] million.

"What about Lucasfilm?"

"Lucasfilm didn't get bought, it just bought ILM," Stein said.

Su Chen thought for a while, and then said: "It doesn't matter who buys it. The important thing is that I really want to set up a special effects company. Dude, if you are willing to join, I am willing to give you 20% of the shares."

"Then what do you think the special effects should look like?" Stein asked, "Or, in your mind, what kind of special effects are the best."

Su Chen thought for a while: "Its production is indeterminate and peculiar. Even people in the industry may not necessarily understand it. Visual effects are more like art than science. They are very complicated and there are always countless Varying details.

Therefore, the best thing is to fit into the plot and be able to present the degree of realism. You are a master of special effects in Hollywood, I believe you should know better than me. "

"Yes, it's better to mix the fake with the real." Stan nodded, and continued: "But to set up a special effects company, it is a costly job, and it is a money-burning thing. Maybe a prop needs to be manufactured hundreds or thousands of times. suitable."

"Since I'm going to do it, I'm naturally ready to spend money." Su Chen said: "But don't worry about this moment, because these things can't be produced all at once."

Stan said: "To set up a special effects company now is not something we can do well with just our mouths. We have to find the right people. If you believe me, I can help you find people, but what I need is financial support, and It’s a constant stream of support.”

"Yes!" Su Chen said seriously: "As long as we can recruit people, I still say the same thing. The special effects company needs money and people to give, and our president, Mr. Allen, is still here. I agree with him on this point." I said it."

Stan nodded: "Then I will start looking for someone, and I will give you news as soon as possible."

"Okay, then I'll wait for your good news."

After sending Stan away, Su Chen and his party walked around the studio before coming out.

He turned to Alan and Shirley: "Don't you all know about the acquisition of ILM?"

"Boss, didn't you acquire it?" Allen said: "I heard that you acquired Marvel, and now we hear that ILM was acquired, we also think it was your handwriting."

Su Chen was speechless: "I don't always arrange the big money. If you have time, please help me pay attention to this news."

"Good boss."

……

At dinner, Basinger also came.

Shirley was already familiar with the strangeness, so she simply greeted her.

After dinner, go directly to the hotel.

Basinger went to take a shower first, and then returned to the room wrapped in a towel: "Sue, I'm done."

"Okay, I'll take a shower too."

After taking a serious bath, Su Chen returned to the room. Basinger had already got into the bed, and said shyly, "Su, let's rest first."

Su Chen nodded and lay down on the bed too.

Reaching out to hug the female superstar, Basinger snuggled up to her.

Because many tycoons are old men, Basinger feels that he is actually quite lucky, at least not like those seniors who have to serve those old and ugly old men.

And I heard that those old men have all kinds of perverted hobbies.

Although forced, but naturally also hope to be a handsome and loving man.

At least psychologically it can feel better.

But Su Chen just hugged her and didn't do anything else.

Because the acquisition of ILM made him a little puzzled, could there be a new tycoon entering Hollywood?

After all, he really couldn't figure out, besides the film industry, what other industries needed to acquire Industrial Light and Magic, and it still cost [-] million.

This is not good news.

Basinger in his arms didn't see him for a long time, and suddenly felt an inexplicable sourness in his heart.

Gently removing his hand from his body, he said, "Su, I'm sorry, maybe I'm not fit to serve you tonight, or you can ask Mr. Allen to call you another girl to sleep with you."

After speaking, I will get up.

Su Chen pulled her onto the bed: "I'm just thinking about something. Besides, you're only at noon today... It's not suitable for strenuous exercise now. I'm not someone who only knows how to take. Let's take a good rest tonight."

"I..." Basinger wanted to struggle to get up, but Su Chen had great strength.

She had no choice but to lie down next to Su Chen again, and after a while, she said: "Actually, since I walked into your rest room this afternoon, I have already made mental preparations. I don't ask for anything, really."

Su Chen said: "I have three girlfriends, one is in China, and two are now in New York."

Basinger's body suddenly trembled slightly, because in Hollywood, many glamorous female stars have actually been criticized by old women, and they are all the kind who come and go when they are called.

It's completely ignorant. On the one hand, after seeing the light, it will be a fatal blow to the artist's stardom. On the other hand, he will be suppressed by the company, so don't even think about mixing in this industry in the future.

However, everyone wants to have a good support, even if it is exchanged with the body.

"At the same time, I'm a very possessive man." Su Chen continued: "If you don't want to continue like this, I won't suppress you, hide you in the snow, and I will praise you at the same time; During the time you were with me, you were still in contact with other men."

Basinger bit his lip: "I know."

"I will not be ruthless." Su Chen said: "I will give you three days to think about it. During these three days, I will accompany you, because in three days, I will fly to San Francisco. Let's sleep first."

"Su, I want to ask you some questions. Is it okay?" Basinger said, "I'll take a little bit of your time."

"You said."

"Are you really Chinese?" Basinger asked.

Su Chen nodded: "It's a genuine Chinese, and I'm still a student at Harvard, and I'm going back to school soon."

Basinger was taken aback: "Are you still a student?"

"Yes." Su Chen nodded: "So, you took advantage, didn't you?"

"That was indeed my advantage." Basinger smiled suddenly: "Okay, dear Chinese boy, let's sleep."

……

The next day, Su Chen went to see the independent company first, and it had already started to look good. Tom Rothman is indeed a talent and has already started to operate.

After listening to the report, Su Chen let him go and find a way to expand the business.

Then accompanied Basinger to have fun in Los Angeles for three days.

On the third night, after some communication, Basinger said, "Su, I've made up my mind..."
