Reborn Millennial Gamer

"Yangtze Memory has recently completed financing. A total of 10 funds and banks from different countries and regions, including National Semiconductor Fund, Deutsche Bank, ABN AMRO, Softbank, etc., have become shareholders, with the financing amount exceeding US$20 billion..."

“This financing adds some chances of winning in the competition to acquire Elpida. Can the balance of victory tilt toward Yangtze River Storage?”

News about Yangtze Storage's financing was played on the car radio. Li Fuzhen closed his eyes and listened quietly.

After a while, the convoy stopped at its destination.

When he saw the building with the words "Han and Tang" hanging on it, Li Fuzhen pulled off the black gold silk scarf wrapped around his neck to cover up the faint red mark, and led the group of people in as if nothing had happened.

With a ding, the elevator door opened.

Thump thump, and soon there was the sound of leather shoes and high heels stepping on the marble floor, echoing in the corridor.

Posted on the walls are "Pacific Rim", "Avengers", "Painted Skin", "Let the Bullets Fly", "Hello!" Posters for movies and TV series such as "Mr. Tree" have eye-catching and large words on the upper right or lower left, all of which are achievements——

Box office, ratings, awards...

It immediately gives people a sense of the style and strength that an entertainment company with a market capitalization of 100 billion should have. China Entertainment is number one, how terrifying!

"haven't seen you for a long time."

Gao Yuanyuan wore a light blue suit and smiled.

"Yes, the last time we met was at the celebration banquet of "Hello! Mr. Tree"." Li Fuzhen held her hand, "We were introduced to each other by President Lu, and this cooperation was only possible."

Gao Yuanyuan apologized and said, "I'm really sorry. I was supposed to pick up the plane in person this time, but something happened and I had to deal with it, so I had to ask my husband to do it for me."

Li Fuzhen waved his hand, "President Gao is so polite. Being personally picked up and entertained by the 'world's richest man' is not something that ordinary people can enjoy. This is my honor!"

Their eyes met, and the two stared at each other meaningfully.

When they arrived at the conference room, the two parties sat face to face and discussed many details such as the release and promotion of "Twenty Again". However, they had different opinions on the release time, and the differences were quite serious.

A double-shoot requires not only that the plots of the movies are very different, but also that they be released at the same time. The two countries echo each other to build momentum, so that the publicity effect is one plus one, which is greater than two!

The Han and Tang Dynasties insist on scheduling the premiere on April 4.

It is also the first day of the May Day Labor Day.

But Labor Day is not a legal holiday for Bangzi. Although it is Sunday, it will still be 996 and 007 after that.

Li Fuzhen politely proposed to release it on May 5.

Because May 5th is Children's Day in Bangzi, the country has a day off, and it happens to be Saturday, so it can be used as a weekend stall.

You come and go and discuss for a long time.

"How about this, how about putting it on April 4?"

Li Fuzhen took a pen and drew a circle on the calendar, "Although your country has this day off and works normally on Saturday, "Twenty Again" premieres in the evening, and the evening slot is still a prime show, and can be connected to May Day. Prime time, what do you think?"

"Okay, it's the 29th, happy cooperation!"

Gao Yuanyuan and Zhong Lifang looked at each other and picked up their teacups.

"Pleasant to work with."

Li Fuzhen also offered tea instead of wine and toasted, "This is just the first project we have collaborated on. If it is successful, I hope to start the second and third film projects immediately. I don't know if there is anything new in the Han and Tang Dynasties." plan of?"

"Mr. Li, you understand."

Gao Yuanyuan glanced at the translator and said, "It is not easy to create a script suitable for both Chinese and Korean films. So far, we have only found one project adapted from a best-selling book."

Li Fuzhen took the handed script, glanced at "July and Ansheng" on the cover, and read it carefully for a while before saying:

"Two heroines?"

"Yes."

Gao Yuanyuan nodded, "As for the heroine, we chose Liu Shishi and Liu Yifei, who are well-known in Chinese movies and even in the global film industry. Mr. Li also met them at the celebration banquet."

Li Fuzhen said without any surprise: "There was news a year ago that they would cooperate with Iron Man and Captain America and star together."

Gao Yuanyuan raised her chin, "That movie "Ex Machina" was for winning the prize, and this movie "July and Ansheng", we are also preparing to fight for the best actress in the Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers, which is equivalent to your Qinglong Dazhong Best Actress, within the company Very concerned."

"Can you wait for us to read and discuss before making a decision?"

"of course can."

"Thank you."

Li Fuzhen felt a competitive spirit from her, and pretended to regret: "It's a pity that there is only one like this."

"That's all we have for now, but there's no need for Mr. Li to sigh. One book and two films are not all collaborations. There can be other collaborations between us."

Gao Yuanyuan smiled and winked at Zhong Lifang.

Li Fuzhen saw the script of "101 Proposals" appearing in front of him, and the executive next to him secretly reminded:

"President, this seems to be a popular Japanese drama in the 90s. There was also a domestic company that adapted it. It's called "My Love, My Bride". Yes, that's the name."

"Yes, we are indeed preparing to remake it. Although we cannot make two copies of the same movie, your investment is very welcome, and the second male lead can be played by a good actor."

Gao Yuanyuan had a faint smile on her lips.

“You want us to import movies into Bangzi?”

Li Fuzhen frowned slightly, guessing the intention.

"A win-win, right?"

Gao Yuanyuan stared at her.

Looking at her look, Li Fuzhen couldn't help but think that Lu Fei had also made a familiar expression, and was stunned.

"Can I take the liberty to ask who your agency plans to send to star? Is it Zeng Li who will lead the cast?" the executive asked excitedly.

"Zeng Li now intends to transform into a director and producer and reduce the number of films she makes." Zhong Lifang shook her head, "The heroine is still the actress in "Twenty Again", Yang Mi. We are going to make her a star of Sino-Korean film cooperation and exchange. A role model."

"Of course there is no problem with this. We can even arrange for Yang Mi to be the ambassador of the Bangzi Film Festival."

Li Fuzhen changed the subject, "But since Han and Tang are willing to reuse some of our actors, I wonder if some Korean actors can also be added to the Marvel Cinematic Universe plan. Of course, they are all actors we signed and strongly recommended."

The executive followed her words and said: "Yes, yes, for example, Kim Soo-hyun is the male protagonist of the Korean version of "Twenty Again."

"Ivanka is fully responsible for North American affairs, and we only have the right to make suggestions at most."

Without waiting for Gao Yuanyuan, Zhong Lifang refused directly.

"That's it..."

Everyone, including Li Fuzhen, was disappointed.

Promoting Korean Wave to Europe and the United States has always been the ultimate goal of Bangzi Culture Industry. It’s not easy to get this opportunity!

The atmosphere suddenly became slightly awkward in the silence.

Gao Yuanyuan cleared her throat and changed the topic to cooperation in variety shows and TV series. On the surface, Bangzi executives were smiling, but in their hearts they were dismissive. Korean variety shows and Korean dramas might not be enough to dominate the world.

But in Asia, it is definitely one of the top hegemons!

Li Fuzhen was very interested. After all, he had discussed it with Lu Fei in advance, but he pretended to be confused and deliberately asked Gao Yuanyuan to recommend him.

Give the empress of the palace a chance to show off her superiority.

Gao Yuanyuan had no idea, she couldn't hide the excited smile on her face, and highly recommended "Where Are We Going, Dad" and "Running Brother".

"Running Brother" has been on the air for 3 weeks, with an average ratings of 2.57%, ranking second in the ratings of national satellite TV variety shows. As for the first place, of course "Where Are We Going, Dad".

It premiered at the beginning of the year and became a sensation across the country. The ratings have ranked first for five consecutive episodes. The current ratings remain at 5% to 4%, and the market share has been above 5%.

The online broadcast volume and replay rate have hit new highs repeatedly. It is the first domestic variety show to have a total broadcast volume of over 4 million, and has even ranked fourth in TVB's TV variety show ratings.

"This this……"

The Bangzi executives who had been dismissive just now were stunned.

Li Fuzhen had to sigh with emotion. "I didn't expect that in addition to movies, TV series and variety shows in the Han and Tang dynasties had already reached this level."

"It's all the credit of the company. These achievements are all deserved by the employees for their hard work." Gao Yuanyuan said with a smile.

"President Gao and President Lu should be the top contributors. The inspiration and ideas for these variety shows mainly come from them. We just check for omissions and fill in the gaps, and are responsible for improvement and execution." Zhong Lifeng added.

Li Fuzhen looked left and right, and finally his eyes fell on Gao Yuanyuan's face. The pride was visible to the naked eye, and he couldn't help but think -

Ivanka is in America as her Hollywood queen.

Gao Yuanyuan is the queen of the Chinese film world in China.

What about yourself?

Maybe you can be the entertainment godmother of the whole Bangzi, and push the Korean Wave to Asia, or even the world, so why fight for that position?

If you take a step back, maybe the world will be brighter.

The ambition for the succession of the Samsung Empire gradually faded away, but they became more and more interested in the cooperation between them.

At the end of the day, only the TV series was left to talk about.

"Mr. Li, let's continue talking tomorrow."

Gao Yuanyuan sent Li Fuzhen and others out of the company.

Like a best friend, Li Fuzhen held her hand affectionately, "Actually, the reason why we are so eager to use Han and Tang Dynasties to enter Hollywood is because CJ Entertainment is preparing to shoot "Snowpiercer", a cooperation between the United States and South Korea. I don't want to be left behind. .”

"That's right."

Gao Yuanyuan said understandingly: "Well, although it is not convenient for me to interfere in the North American business, since you are A Fei's friend..."

The word "friend" was emphasized very strongly, "I am still a partner. I have helped you with this. I will recommend you to the "Twelve Zodiac" project. The heroine Jing Tian is one of our people. According to her, Jack Cheng is planning Find an Asian actor to be the second male lead.”

“Can we invest too?”

Li Fuzhen smiled when he heard the name "Cheng Long".

Gao Yuanyuan made an "ok" gesture, "Or, we can invest in and co-produce a Hollywood blockbuster."

"A word is settled!"

Li Fuzhen patted the back of her hand, "I know that Hantang has top-notch production capabilities and has invested in AMC theaters. It should not require our help, but I still want to say that if there is anything we can use, just mention it. I’ll definitely try my best.”

"Really?"

"Ah."

"Then I'll mention it."

Gao Yuanyuan smiled, "It's not a big deal, it's just that the male protagonist of "Twenty Again", Lu Han, is not an EXO member of SM Entertainment, but due to the restrictions of the long-term contract..."

Li Fu really understood, "I understand. Fortunately, it may be difficult to resolve the contract dispute between three Chinese people in EXO, but with just one, it will be much easier to handle."

"I won't embarrass you too much, right?"

"No, Line has been communicating with SM and is working hard to acquire the shares held by Lee Soo Man and others and completely control them. They will not fail to give us this face."

"That's good."

Gao Yuanyuan sent her to the car.

Before getting on the bus, Li Fuzhen deliberately reminded: "Instead of digging for idols, it is better to cultivate your own idols. We are planning an idol talent show, "Produce 101". If you are willing, you can select a few artists from China and send them to We will be trainees here and teach them for two and a half years before debuting."

"I will consider your proposal."

"Think about it, contact me anytime."

The two hugged intimately and then separated.

Along the way, Li Fuzhen remained silent when he suddenly noticed that his confidant secretary in the passenger seat kept turning his head and hesitated to speak.

"what happened?"

"President, something big happened!"

"Is it Samsung or Line?"

"No, it's Elpida. I just received the news that Micron and Yangtze River Storage have negotiated a peace. I don't know what kind of agreement they have reached. They actually jointly acquired Elpida. Oh my God!"

"What did you say?!"

No matter how calm Li Fuzhen was, he couldn't calm down at the moment and called Lu Fei immediately.

"What I said is right. Maybe you will receive unexpected good news before you return to China. Are you surprised?"

Lu Fei said proudly: "I'm not surprised!"

"How do you do it?"

Li Fuzhen couldn't believe it.

With the backing of Samsung’s loans, can Micron be intimidated?

"It's very simple. Everyone in the world is interested in benefiting each other. If we give some benefits to each other, we will naturally achieve a win-win situation." Lu Fei said with a smile.

Li Fuzhen kept urging, eager for answers.

Lu Fei hid something and only told what he could reveal.

Elpida's chip production capacity is to process 18.5 12-inch wafers per month, which is produced for manufacturers such as Logic and Shenzhou, as well as memory chips for Apple's mobile phones, tablets and computers.

Dust to dust, dust to dust.

For example, Elpida's DRAM factory in Hiroshima, which specializes in supplying Apple, was assigned to Micron. After all, Yangtze Memory took over. As expected, Apple will definitely cancel subsequent orders immediately.

It would be better to give up all the supplies to Apple to Micron, and leave the services to other manufacturers such as Logic to Yangtze Memory.

"That's all, Micron agreed?"

Li Fuzhen frowned, "Is it true? I don't believe it."

"Hey, I also promised to give a portion of Logic and Shenzhou's orders. Of course, Micron must give a preferential price."

Lu Fei did not reveal the core secret.

For example, Elpida's technical information is shared by Micron and Yangtze Memory. For example, Elpida's wafer fabs and technology joint ventures in areas such as Bay Bay are also owned by Yangtze Memory.

But in exchange, Micron received 3D NAND flash memory technology. Because it previously teamed up with Intel, it failed to break through this technology, so the flash memory business slowly fell behind.

Now, I finally follow the big team again.

However, Mr. Lu is not so kind. The license is the same as Samsung and Toshiba, and it also has a bsic structure, and the flaws are huge!

3D NAND flash memory, Yangtze Memory is far ahead!

"With the acquisition of Elpida, will Yangtze Memory surpass Samsung and become the world's number one memory chip company?"

Li Fuzhen's mood was complicated, with both joy and worry. (End of chapter)
