Rebirth of the Tech Madman

Chapter 916: There are states, there are federations, and there are Tang

...

On New Year's Day in 1994, Gates was given a wedding, and the result was an uproar.

Everyone else thinks. Everyone took the time to go this trip, it's a bit worthless-a waste of expressions!

But the richest man actually thinks that this kind of face-saving project is quite necessary-at least, on the surface, it seems that the powerful Tang Kingdom has a very harmonious relationship with its peers, and has given up in a reasonable manner. Some living space.

Compared with Microsoft's uncompromising attitude, this general trend is much more important, and it can be transformed into evidence at any time to refute the argument that it monopolizes the IT industry.

Of course, this is also related to the predictable threats Microsoft can create.

After returning to San Francisco, Tang Huan, who calmly embraced the idea of ​​"coming soldiers to block, water to the land", only asked his subordinates to be vigilant and pay attention to possible changes in the industry, including Microsoft, and then turned his energies to what he thought was more important. —— Carrying on the past and the future, which are unique to the new year and the beginning of the year.

This year, Fangyuan and Zheru will adapt to the economic globalization situation and make major adjustments in terms of structure and strategy. Related work will be fully launched in the first quarter.

Based on the core position of these two major companies, this kind of imperative to keep pace with the times can be said to affect the whole body. Tang Huan likes to lazily leave some important tasks to the department, but transforms ten. The true crystallization of years of hard work is not suitable for prosthetic hands to others.

However, it is not so easy for the richest man to settle down for his it kingdom.

For example, Hollywood subordinates persevered in sending the lively scene to his tycoon.

At this stage, the three major brands of Lianmei, MGM, and Twentieth Century Fox, as well as their sub-brands, occupy close to 35% of the North American film market. The special year like 1982, when it was released, is a bit higher than anything else. It is not an exaggeration to describe how proud of the spring breeze with his nostrils facing the sky.

Ever since, MGM and Lianmei want to celebrate their birthdays with everyone. MGM, founded in 1924, is already 70 years old this year; Lianmei, established in 1919, is already 75th anniversary this year. . Twentieth Century Fox, founded in 1935, wanted to join in the fun, but it was a year away from "five" or "ten".

Tang Daheng is quite speechless about this-in Hollywood, Paramount and Universal are ranked first, OK? And even if you make some money, there is no need to be so ostentatious, don't you know that I am afraid of hearing rumors about monopoly right now?

But this group of executives is also plausible-ten years ago, everyone was still running in; five years ago, the boss was not in the United States; this year, when the market in Hollywood has improved in all aspects, we occupy the top spot, and it should be held for granted. A celebration to show its dominance in the industry.

Seeing that these guys are very ambitious, they almost wrote the intention of "see who dares not come to cheer" directly on his face. Daheng Tang didn't bother to care about it. He just pointed out one point-it's okay to help build momentum, but don't expect it. I will definitely attend two celebrations.

As a result, MGM and Lianmei had already negotiated-the two merged the celebration into one and arranged it to be held in mid-March before the Oscar Awards ceremony.

Since this is the case, Tang Huan did not mess with things, and immediately instructed Yanle Entertainment to coordinate the relevant preparations from the group's high level. He himself came to Los Angeles to inspect, and he happened to visit the 1994 Football World Cup Organizing Committee at the same time-San Francisco and Los Angeles provided both. The stadium required for this competition.

...

While eating at Hu Yinmeng’s residence, Tang Huan heard a message from the other party—the ambitious Spielberg wanted to meet Jeffrey Katzenberg and David Geoff in addition to Amperin. Finn established a film company.

"If you feel that you have enough skills, then challenge the current pattern of Hollywood." Tang Daheng nodded his head in a flat response.

It can be said that the richest man is not surprised by this-Gein, up to now, Spielberg's career success, there is no need to repeat it, and his pursuit is naturally not limited to wealth, it can be described as human nature; Jeffrey Katzenberg, whose heart is higher than the sky and thinner than the paper, is not hard to guess after he was defeated in the Disney corporate politics struggle, he wanted to make a **** road in Hollywood. And after these factors are added together, it is enough for the people in this small circle to continue to move forward in accordance with the historical trajectory.

Although it felt nothing new at all, Tang Daheng still had a natural curiosity in his heart, so he asked, "What's the name of their company?"

"It's not listed yet, how can I know." Hu Yinmeng rolled his eyes.

"Anyway, no matter what the name is, DreamWorks will definitely not be able to call it." Tang Huan laughed playfully, "I gave you this name early."

"Don't give me ecstasy soup, I am actually an exploited person working for you-I used to be in Xiangjiang, but now I have been drawn to the United States." Hu Yinmeng made a cut and continued to analyze: "Spielberg told I confided this plan, just to pass me through and blow the air to you."

Tang Huan smiled and waved his hand, "Just tell him clearly that I don't need to be insulting from it-only optimistic."

"You old cunning guys, what you say is better than singing." Hu Yinmeng unceremoniously revealed the old bottom: "You must be sure in your heart. Spielberg, a small group, is at most in the production process. Flop for a while."

"I really don't care about the emergence of this new company. Anyway, Spielberg has a few of my film contracts-you can use it when you want to." Tang Huan, who didn't care, turned to the topic: " Look for an art film in your small theater to enjoy it, so you can change your mind and relax."

"There happens to be a copy of the latest Oscar-nominated film, which will definitely satisfy you." Hu Yinmeng hurriedly opened with a smile.

Glancing at the label copied by Hu Yinmeng, Tang Huan lazily said: "I've seen "Farewell My Concubine" a long time ago."

"I found this one for you." Hu Yinmeng picked up another copy and shook it, not forgetting to add, "Restricted level."

In the past few years, MGM has participated in movies with a wide range of subject matter.

Hu Yinmeng's "Thepiano"-"Piano Love", is one of them.

Tang Huan raised his brows, "Is that normal?"

"Of course." Hu Yinmeng said while operating the projector proficiently: "Last year's Cannes Film Festival's highest honor-the Palme d'Or, was the sharing of "Farewell Piano" and "Farewell My Concubine". The former won an Oscar. There were 8 nominations for the Image Award, and the latter was shortlisted for the Oscar Award for Best Foreign Language Film."

"This year's Oscar's highest honor should belong to Spielberg and Schindler's List. Other people and works are the roles that accompany the prince to study." Tang Huan's tone is very affirmative.

In the production process of "Schindler's List", the richest man just provided some convenience within the normal range. He didn't go up too much, and there was no reason for that. It was the world that has been cut off for years to do nothing, and there are times. Steve Rose of Warner was extremely enthusiastic. After all, they are a Jewish circle. It's just a pity that Steve Rose went to heaven to report before the movie was released.

"It's the politics again~Is the governance correct?" Hu Yinmeng murmured casually, then turned the topic back to "Farewell My Concubine", "For the best foreign language film of Oscar, Xu Feng has already been PR on my side. "

"Then do what you should do." Tang Huanhun replied indifferently.

"The Banquet" directed by Ang Lee was also nominated for the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film. "Farewell My Concubine" won the Palme d’Or at the Cannes Film Festival. "The Banquet" did not come empty-handed. It won the Berlin International last year. The highest award of the film festival-the Golden Bear Award." Hu Yinmeng felt embarrassed, "As a result, it's all here now!"

"Then the director came to PR too?" Tang Huan asked absently.

"One didn't come, one came." Hu Yinmeng pushed the man dissatisfied, "I can't use this as a criterion for who to help."

"If you are embarrassed, then flip a coin to decide." Tang Huan, who was slowly attracted by the movie, was a little impatient. Through the light, he saw a few coins in the nut box on the coffee table, so he picked one up and tossed it. In the air, "How simple, the result came out."

"Just fool me." Hu Yinmeng punched the man angrily. "What does the front represent? What does the back represent?"

Tang Huan shrugged, "Then toss it later."

Seeing that the man was watching the movie seriously, Hu Yinmeng deliberately continued to nag, "The actor of this little girl-Anna Paquin, is less than 12 years old, is director Jane Campion from 5,000 people. The selected ones have already been nominated for Best Supporting Actress at the Oscars. If they really win, they will be the second youngest winner in history."

Tang Huan has recognized the little girl in the movie. She is the little naughty girl in "X-Men" that was released a few years later in the original time and space.

"This little girl did well indeed." Tang Huan said in a rare and serious manner: "Don't ignore the political ~ governance is correct-the ruling Democratic ~ political party wants to make the U.S. military recognize homosexuality, but the result is a mess. The Republicans took the opportunity to counterattack very hard. Now, the topic of feminism is politically correct."

Hu Yinmeng, the young woman, was convinced by the man in front of him that she was "foresight", so she immediately murmured, "You mean, this year's Oscar will also be taboo."

...

The background of the story of "Piano Love" is the last century. A young Scottish widow, Ada, has been unable to speak since she was six and can only communicate with others through the piano and sign language. Forced by her father, she left her hometown with her daughter and piano and married Stewart, a colonist in New Zealand.

Because the piano is heavy and the road is difficult, Stewart decided to abandon the piano and leave it on the beach.

In this regard, Ada was in great pain. She has lost the ability to speak since she was a child, and the only thing that can dispel loneliness is the beautiful and moving music of the piano.

Finally, Ada asks for help from her new neighbor, Bans. The other party said that he should listen to her performance first.

So, Ada played affectionately at the beach, venting the complex emotions in her heart.

As a result, Bans was moved by the shocking music, and even understood her inner world better than Ada’s husband, and then used a piece of land to exchange for the piano from Stewart, and worked hard to transport it. Coming home.

In order to play the piano, Ada and the new owner of the piano, Bans, reached an agreement: She can go to play the piano, but the price is that she needs to teach the other party how to learn the piano.

It is not difficult to guess the direction of the next story, and the restricted level is also limited here.

...

Tang Huan was a little suspicious. Nv Wenqing had chosen such an art film for herself to appreciate, whether she wanted to warn herself that once the old Wang next door saw the right time and took advantage of the opportunity, he would be invincible.

"Don't look at me with that look. This work by Jane Campion has a very deep theme." Hu Yinmeng, who turned on the light, moved and squatted on the floor, and threw it out before looking for Tang Huan. The coin of ~www.readwn.com~Looking at the undulating curve of the waves, the man suddenly rose up and rode on it.

"Don't make trouble." Hu Yinmeng laughed and cursed, and suddenly exclaimed, "Look at that coin, why is it standing in the crack of the floor?"

Tang Huan glanced at it. Although he was a little surprised, he didn't care at all. "That's not better, so you don't need to worry about what the front and back of the coin represent."

...

Tang Huan's Zhengxiang was suddenly awakened by a violent shock. After opening his eyes, through the wall lamp, he noticed that the whole house was shaking.

"What's the matter?" Hu Yinmeng, who was also awakened, exclaimed in exclamation.

"Damn it, it's probably an earthquake." After Tang Huan cursed annoyedly, calmly calmed down his woman.

"San Francisco should be okay." Hu Yinmeng immediately worried about his son.

"Being so far away, of course it's okay." Tang Huan took Hu Yinmeng to the courtyard of the villa, only to see a riot outside, and even the light of fire could be seen in the distance.

The earthquake lasted less than half a minute and then ended, but immediately ushered in the first aftershock.

Tang Huan thought secretly—Los Angeles surpassed San Francisco in terms of population and building density. It is estimated that the damage caused by this earthquake will also exceed that of San Francisco a few years ago.

...

This is indeed the case. In the Los Angeles earthquake, the initial estimate of property damage exceeded US$30 billion.

The only good news is that the number of victims was not correspondingly severe. The earthquake directly or indirectly caused 57 deaths and more than 8,700 injuries.

California hurriedly launched the rescue, and US President Colinton also quickly allocated 400 million US dollars-the richest man naturally also the greater the ability and the greater the responsibility, he donated 100 million US dollars without saying anything.
