Rebirth of the Tech Madman

...

At this stage, what is the level of the global video game industry?

First of all, I need to point out that due to Tang Huan, who used the game console as a branch of his personal computer, he entered the field for more than ten years. This field is no longer comparable to the original time and space.

If you have to look for a more vivid reference, that is, in terms of game consoles, the most high-end best-selling product on the market at present-the three-generation Xiaobawang game console, which is basically equivalent to the original time and space Sony released in 1994; in terms of personal computers , The latest generation of the fourth-generation Fangyuan personal computer-mmx, through the intel_80486-level cpu, plus Tang Huan’s various video and audio acceleration chips, as well as support and optimization at the operating system level, equivalent to the original time and space Intel released in 1993 "Pentium" microprocessor, the "586" ibm-pc compatible machine spawned.

These are only references from the perspective of hardware, and the greater mystery is the strong support of software.

The general consensus reached by the current electronic game industry is that 32-bit game consoles will become the mainstream; traditional game content storage methods, namely cassettes, are being replaced by cd-roms; 2d technology applications are becoming more mature, and they can even mimic some ingeniously. These 3d effects are commonly known as "2.5d".

It can be said that video game practitioners who can keep up with this situation are even mainstream; otherwise, they can only rely on niche and alternative food.

Of course, the powerful hardware platform created by Tang Huan only provides a basic application environment for electronic games. The success of the game depends on the creativity of the developers and the ability to convert them into game software products.

The DreamWorks Game Studio, which has grown amidst setbacks, has basically been tempered into an elite team comparable to its Japanese counterparts, and the team’s system has been perfected-even if a member leaves, it can quickly supplement qualified successors. By.

Starting from the game adaptation of Jin Yong’s martial arts novels, the output of DreamWorks Game Studio is not small, but the work that really satisfies Tang Huan is the same type of "Emperor" as "Sim City". Not only is the standard high enough, but also It embodies a rich enough oriental cultural connotation.

At the symposium, Tang Huan smiled and concluded: "The white lady’s master, Lishan’s mother, appeared in the game, which is a prelude to the material of the Chinese mythology system we have compiled. In this huge and profound history Under the background, whether it is the original folk tales or the new original chapters, they can be seamlessly connected together. The competition in the video game industry can be described as fierce, and the way to survive is to create a market with its own characteristics. In order to accept the series of works, I will wait for your performance."

DreamWorks Game Studio's weight is limited. The richest man stayed for two hours. After expressing his serious attitude, he got up and left, reunited with Weng Jingjing, and visited Jin Yong.

On March 22 this year, Ming Pao Group, whose history can be traced back to 1959, was listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange-Jin Yong owns 60% of the shares, and the other co-founder Shen Baoxin owns 15% of the shares. The lower 25%, in accordance with regulations, is distributed to the public in the stock market.

The current market situation of the Hong Kong stock market has long recovered and surpassed the level before the "Black Monday" in 1987. The Ming Pao Group, which performed well, was naturally very popular with investors. Jin Yong's wealth has also risen with this brainchild.

However, "Ming Pao" has become more and more the target of world media giants like Murdoch, so Jin Yong, who is overwhelmed, asked the richest man again a few months ago about his willingness to take over.

Tang Huan thought about it, and finally decided to take the controlling stake of Ming Pao, and then consolidate the controlling stakes of Media Asia TV and Xiangcheng Radio, and hand it over to Weng Jingjing, who has been extremely well-trained.

The "little brother" of the richest man was looking forward to helping his man take on more affairs, so he happily followed Tang Huan and went to Jin Yong's mansion together, just in time for the other party to entertain a man of the same age as Tang Huan.

Jin Yong introduced with great interest: "Tang Sheng, let me introduce you. This is an amazing young talent-Yu Pinhai."

"In front of Cha Sheng and Tang Sheng, I dare not take such praise." The man named Yu Pinhai hurriedly leaned forward and stretched out his hands.

With the effort of shaking hands, Tang Huan looked at Yu Pinhai a few times, and then remembered the origin of the other party, and couldn’t help but mutter to himself, “Jin Yong’s eyes on Yu Pinhai are as cordial as seeing his nephew. It’s not about the transfer of Ming Pao’s equity. Ups and downs, right?"

Yu Pinhai is a very open and capable person. His name is not limited to the original time and space. He flicked Ming Pao from Jin Yong's hands, but was exposed by the media that he had a criminal record while studying in Canada, and he had to voluntarily resign. Farce.

You know, Yu Pinhai’s business covers a wide range-he is also a celebrity in the IT circle. He took the lead in bringing Internet technology to Ming Pao, established the first news website of a Chinese-language newspaper, and was also in the midst of the craze. Qidongli, acquired Xinwang, occupied a considerable share in China's website construction, virtual hosting, corporate mailbox and other markets. It even acquired Red Flag Chinese 2000, which develops open source operating systems and office software, which in turn triggered technical issues. The original war of words made a lot of noise.

In addition to media and it, Yu Pinhai also invested in movies and cinemas. The Dadi Group under his umbrella is quite famous in the movies he participated in. For example, the epic film "Confucius" starring Zhou Runfa; won the 60th Berlin Film Festival Best Film Crystal Bear Award (new generation unit children group) and other awards, and helped Ren Dahua win the 29th Xiangjiang Film Awards Best Male The protagonist's "The Thief of Time", and the art-oriented niche work "Movie History".

In short, Yu Pinhai is a person who is good at camping, and his background is also more complicated.

Sure enough, not long after Yu Pinhai left, Jin Yong said with all his heart: "Tang Sheng, after repeated consideration, I think it is more appropriate to let Yu Pinhai, who is outstanding in ability, take over the Ming Pao. In this way, we will devote all our energy and fully serve the development of Ming Pao."

"Cha Sheng's consideration is of course reasonable." Tang Huan laughed indifferently, and turned to another question. "Tvb has filmed Jin Yong's martial arts dramas throughout the 1980s, and then, in the TV drama copyright of Xiangjiang. , Should Feng Shui take turns to DreamWorks, right?"

"Tang Sheng is really hard for me." Jin Yong showed hesitation, "I have had a good relationship with Sir Shao and tvb for many years."

"The production level of DreamWorks is at least not worse than that of tvb, and the distribution capability is even better. It is time for Cha Sheng to change his taste." Tang Huan waved his hand grandiosely, "As for the possible complaints of tvb, Cha Sheng directly dealt with it. The responsibility is on me."

"Tang Sheng is so kind, how could I not know how to praise it." Perhaps I felt "backward" in the matter of the equity transfer of Ming Pao. I was a little embarrassed. Jin Yong finally abandoned his old friendship with Shao Yifu and put "Feixue shot into the sky." "White Deer, Laughing Man leaning on Bi Yuan" has the right to adapt the TV series within the scope of Xiangjiang to DreamWorks. Of course, he won't suffer a loss in his interests.

After getting out of Jin Yong's residence and getting into the car, Tang Huan looked at Weng Jingjing, who was pouting and full of dissatisfaction, and joked: "Why, I'm not happy to be the queen of all-round media?"

Weng Jingjing rolled her eyes, "The status and influence of Ming Pao, that is a resource that is difficult to replace, so inexplicably handed over to others?"

"In my opinion..." Tang Huan shook his head with a smile, "In the noisy environment like Xiangjiang, the newspaper is really not a worry-free business, and even if Jin Yong retires, he will inevitably respond. There are ideas for the future development of Ming Pao, and it is easy to break friendships due to differences."

Weng Jingjing snorted, turned to stare at the scenery outside the car window, and said nothing.

Seeing this scene, Tang Huan had to take a turn for the better, "Actually, there is no room for recovery. As far as I know, Yu Pinhai had a case in Canada in his early years, and he only needed to go to the relevant departments of the Canadian government and government. Get the exact material. Whether Yu Pinhai intentionally concealed it or accidentally omitted it, this taint is an unbearable burden for the head of Ming Pao, and Jin Yong certainly cannot tolerate such deception."

Weng Jingjing's eyes lighted up when she heard it, "It's too simple to collect this material. I will ask Feng Yongfa from Canada to help us inquire about this matter.

"Don't be too hasty, you need to be skilled in doing things." Tang Huan patted the hand of "Little Brother" and pointed out: "Although we are kind to not let Jin Yong be deceived, if we act so quickly, it will inevitably be too utilitarian. Besides, let this matter slowly ferment, the effect may be better."

"Then let this guy be more proud of it for a while." Weng Jingjing snorted, her delicate expression made the richest man laugh.

...

After digging the corner of tvb, Tang Huan looked at the schedule and was about to go to Baodao. Fang Yihua found it and complained straight to the door with the unique advantages of women: "Tang Sheng, gentlemen don’t take advantage of others. Okay, you are really unkind for grabbing love so arrogantly."

Tang Huan didn't think he smiled and said: "TVB is now shooting TV series, but it is getting more and more stingy in terms of funding. Maybe Jin Daxia is not satisfied."

"But the effect of the filming, the audience still bought it." Fang Yihua defended with some guilty conscience.

"You might as well think about whether Jin Daxia would like to have a wider audience for his works." Tang Huan smiled and said to the other party, and then pulled back, "The overall situation of the cooperation between DreamWorks and tvb is so stable. There can be some cooperation on this. After all, as competitors such as satellite TV and cable TV join in, we must be prepared for defense in advance."

Fang Yihua nodded with a sense of feeling, no longer entangled in this topic, and said sternly: "Tang Sheng said that, I am here this time, also want to discuss with you the measures to deal with this problem."

Tang Huan raised his brows, "Looks like Ms. Fang is already on her chest?"

"I'm absolutely sure, I can't guarantee it, but it can be done in an invincible position." Fang Yihua replied proudly: "To maintain an advantage in the small circle of Xiangjiang, you only need to use the resources of'people'. Just grab it in your hand."

"Hasn't TVB and DreamWorks been doing this all the time?" Tang Huan quipped: "The TV series "Legend of the New White Lady" currently being screened in Greater China, the three leading actors are either from tvb or get Shaw’s support is so protégés all over the world."

After a trace of complacency flashed on Fang Yihua’s face, he slowly said: “But people don’t go without their heads, and birds don’t fly without their heads. Compared to the interaction between Alan Tam and Leslie Cheung in the 1980s, the Xiangjiang entertainment industry is obviously lacking. It can be called a banner character. If Tang Sheng's deep industry resources are combined with tvb to create a few leading artists, then the pattern will definitely stabilize ~www.readwn.com~ even if outsiders rush to eat, It's just an embarrassing situation without rice."

Tang Huan's heart moved, "Ms. Fang wants to imitate the previous tvb'five tiger generals' and create a series of heavenly kings."

"Tang Shenghui's eyes are like torches." Fang Yihua said convincingly: "However, this time the standard must be raised to a higher level. The artists who are touted must have a full range of skills in the fields of music, TV dramas, movies, etc. Achievement is the only thing. The new king, of course, has to be an all-around player."

"Ms. Fang's threshold is really not generally high. At the very least, Zhou Xingchi, who is now red and purple, can't meet the standard." Tang Huan shook his head slightly with a smile.

"As long as you observe carefully, you can still find a suitable candidate. For example, Liu Dehua." Fang Yihua replied obviously prepared.

I have to say that the candidate Fang Yihua first came up with was quite sophisticated.

I don't know if it was because of the tragic experience of being hidden by tvb. After getting rid of the shackles of tvb, Liu Dehua was obviously very wary and did not sign the contract to a big company. Of course, this kind of freedom also means that there is no backstage, and it is inevitable to become the target of bullying by the societies that swarm in and get involved in the entertainment industry. However, Liu Dehua still managed to stand out in the fierce competition with his amazing efforts.

Fang Yihua suggested this "neutral" candidate from the very beginning. Obviously, he didn't want the two parties to have too much disagreement on the distribution plan of their own people.

"I agree with this idea." Tang Huan said: "You have to prepare first. After I inspect the properties of Baodao, it is estimated that you will be able to come up with a specific plan."

...

Today's high-tech industry in Baodao has undergone new changes, that is, in addition to foundry, it is striving to become a global manufacturing base for notebook computers.
