Rebirth of the Tech Madman

...

Of course "The Matrix" must be made into a movie! You know, this science fiction story is a subtle reminder that once the Internet loses its freedom, the consequences that follow will be very terrible.

After Tang Huan gave an affirmative answer, he added: “As for when to start filming and in what form to operate, it is up to professionals in the film industry to decide.

This time the reporters obviously prepared a lot of questions, and immediately followed the trend of words and asked: "Tang, I heard that the filming process of "Titanic" with unprecedented investment scale is always troublesome-you really still trust Are you the current film professionals?"

"Of course." Tang Huan smiled heartily, "Although I don't do much specific work now, after all, I came from the grassroots level. Knowing that there are twists and turns in work, it is inevitable."

In this way, the reporter who was full of bad water tried to make tricks and was once again easily "immunized" by the richest man.

...

In fact, after the Comdex Las Vegas Autumn Show, Tang Huan, while secretly laying out checks and balances on the Internet, has already noticed that "Titanic", the most expensive movie project, has some troubles. He came out of San Francisco this time, just planning to go to see it on the spot.

The crew of "Titanic" was very sad recently, and was secretly given "Mongolian sweat medicine"-collectively put down.

The specific situation is: James Cameron’s violent temper, and I don’t know who provokes him. As a result, in the process of filming modern scenes, he was secretly mixed with a kind of "phencyclidine" in the soup. "The central nervous system hallucinogen, and then James Cameron included, more than 50 film crew members were tossed by this second-level poison and rolled around on the spot. They entered a state of hallucinations and had to hurry. Send to a doctor for rescue.

There is even more aggrieved place-the assailant was not caught.

Seeing James Cameron’s embarrassed appearance, the richest man said dumbfoundedly: "I didn’t want to talk about the specifics of the filming, but you were so confused that you were still at a loss when you were drugged! Or, I’ll send someone to investigate. Right, it's a revenge for you."

"Since this is already the case, let's forget it-now that the shooting progress is quality and quantity is the first priority." James Cameron calmly said.

Tang Huan just confided, it was an expression of concern, since the other party chose to swallow his anger, he had no choice but to give up. After all, no one can fully predict the consequences of extraneous branches.

In fact, James Cameron’s psychological activities are not difficult to understand.

The shelf of the movie "Titanic" is too stretched-not to mention the 12 dives last year to 4,000 meters deep in the Atlantic Ocean to shoot the wreck of the Titanic on the spot, just to restore the background of the era more than 80 years ago, on the props In the big ship, down to the dishes, the meticulousness was so demanding that he even hired a full-time etiquette coach to teach the actors about the etiquette of the upper class in 1912.

Under this circumstance, one can imagine how expensive the expenditures are.

Thus, while James Cameron was enjoying the glory of reusing and showing his strengths, he was under greater pressure than ever.

You know, since Tang Tycoon entered Hollywood, it is not an exaggeration to say that there is no disadvantage; if James Cameron messed up "Titanic" and turned it into an unprecedented "box office bomb", then his career may be necessary. Since then ruined.

Just in the past 1995, people saw a living "box office bomb"-"Cut Throat Island" with a shooting budget of nearly 100 million U.S. dollars, and the box office revenue was less than 10 million U.S. dollars, directly the producer-Du~ The establishment of the film company Carlock Pictures, advanced the eradication of the disaster.

James Cameron didn't want to be nailed to the pillar of shame, so naturally he dared not let the filming process of "Titanic" add unnecessary variables.

In essence, "Titanic" is equivalent to a large-scale project involving thousands of people, involving complicated large-scale operations and guarantees, and James Cameron is a project manager who wants to be safe and orderly Land construction must be implemented with a very strict method, such as the militarized management that has attracted investigations by the American Screen Actors Guild. At this point, the richest man agrees with James Cameron in his heart.

Seeing that the other party’s work status has not been affected, Tang Huan nodded and said: "Okay, your site is in charge! I just want to emphasize that I am your reliable backing, and "Titanic" is not only your ideal, but also me. Ideal."

As the so-called confidant dies, James Cameron is so attracted by the richest man in Tang that there is nothing to say.

Standing up, Tang Huan paced and muttered: "James, commercial factors cannot be ignored. I have to remind you again that "Titanic" should be released in 1997, which is the summer file next year! "

"I have confidence in the progress." James Cameron said here, with a hesitation on his face, "Only in terms of funding, can we increase it more?"

The richest man looked at James Cameron's bloodshot eyes and asked slowly: "How much does it need to increase?"

James Cameron bit the bullet and replied, "It's best to increase it by 50 million US dollars at a time."

After thinking about it for a while, Tang Huan smiled slightly, "No problem-it's not bad to make a whole."

While James Cameron was delighted to get what he wanted cleanly, of course, he could also taste the final subtext of the big boss, "It’s not bad to make it up," the shooting budget of "Titanic", that’s it. Reached 200 million U.S. dollars, the bow became more and more without turning back.

"I must go all out." James Cameron moved out the sentence that he didn't know how many times he had repeated--other than that, he really didn't know how he should express his position.

The richest man nodded, his eyes fell on the drawing board inadvertently, and he wandered over.

When it comes to money, the atmosphere is always tense-James Cameron hurriedly followed, took the opportunity to turn the topic off, and introduced: "There is a link in the movie where the male protagonist Jack drew a portrait of the female protagonist Rose. So I did it for you. But, I'm left-handed, and I'll have to deal with it when the time comes."

Glancing at the stills of Kate Winslet, Tang Huan couldn't help but picked up the pen.

James Cameron rushed to the sidelines and slapped his hands-he knew that the richest man was a brilliant hand, and the beauty picture was quite famous in the "circle".

Master Tang really deserves his reputation. Even if Kate Winslet in the photo is wearing clothes, he can vividly "decode" his paintings.

James Cameron swallowed secretly when he saw it, and said to his heart—this painting is probably worth a lot of money!

You know, there are standards for reference.

According to reliable sources, Madonna, the popular queen of the world today, has the authenticity of the richest man, and even became a fuse for her divorce from Sean Pan. When she invited professionals to conduct an appraisal, the result was as high as 1,000. Ten thousand U.S. dollars.

Of course, there may be an added effect on the identities of both parties, but if the movie "Titanic" is a big success, its weight will always be comparable to Madonna.

Tang Huan looked at his work and nodded in satisfaction-"Brain Replenishment" is not only a skill, but also an achievement.

Looking at the subtleties in the painting, James Cameron couldn't help but whispered secretly-the boss is really the best painter, or has he "visited and inspected" on the ground? It stands to reason, no, I remember he was so busy that he didn’t have time to intervene in the casting process.

When he got excited, he couldn't hold his hands anymore-Tang Huan smiled eagerly and said: "One more picture!"

James Cameron grinned slightly, and said in his heart-your paintings are indeed of high standard, and they will definitely be used at that time, but they are too vivid. I am afraid that when the time comes, everyone will feel embarrassed when they see it.

Fortunately, this time the richest man did not draw a picture of a beauty, but Rose opened his arms, Jack held her waist, and the two stood together on the bow of the Titanic.

Tang Huan put down his pen and said in admiration, "You did a great job in restoring the costumes of that era-the small waists of the British aristocratic ladies at that time were very pleasing to the eye even from the perspective of oriental aesthetics."

James Cameron looked at the painting with glowing eyes, and there seemed to be a sudden sense of relief in his head.

He slapped his thigh fiercely, and said excitedly: "I've decided. This painting should be used as a promotional poster!"

The richest man laughed loudly, "I'm just doing graffiti as I please, don't be misled by me."

"How come." James Cameron complimented convincingly: "With Tang's paintings, I don't have to show my ugliness."

...

In Hollywood, some information is always spread quickly-the news that the filming budget of the movie "Titanic" has increased to 200 million US dollars has spread like wildfire.

As the saying goes, the wood shows in the forest, and the wind will destroy it. Based on subtle psychology, the outside world is obviously no longer optimistic about the prospects of "Titanic", and even compared it with the 1960s "Egypt" that almost bankrupted 20th Century Fox. Compare this with "The Queen of Secrets."

This infamous epic film originally had a budget of only 2 million US dollars, but in the end it cost 44 million US dollars-if inflation is taken into account, it is comparable to the current "Titanic" .

In short, although everyone did not say it too verbally, but the meaning is very consistent-Tang Tycoon has been crushed in Hollywood in these years, and when his luck is always exhausted, he should be unlucky now, and even Defeated in Waterloo.

People's hearts are nothing more than this-Tang Huan, who is like a mirror in his heart, maintains a consistent indifferent. Over the years, there are countless people and forces who have expected him to go downhill, but in fact, as long as one does not die, it is enough to rely on the Matthew effect to make the strong stronger and the rich richer.

So, is "Titanic", which is now despised by many people, by Tycoon Tang himself?

No matter how much saliva wasted, it is meaningless-the answer will only be clear at a glance when the movie is released a year later.

...

After Tang Huan returned to San Francisco, he found a document from a biotech company on his desk. The report was: After publishing the research results of genetic rooster, it is time to announce to the public that the experiment of cloning sheep has also been successful-then The sheep named "Dolly" has survived for more than half a year, and its physical signs are all normal, which is enough to support this conclusion.

Tang Huan was immediately interested and asked Keith Campbell, the project leader, to take him to the laboratory for a tour.

Keith Campbell introduced: "Dolly has three mothers: one provides DNA, one provides eggs, and one is responsible for surrogacy."

"First, take out the mammary gland cells from a pregnant 6-year-old white-faced Fendos ewe, and then supply this cell with low nutrition, leaving it in a state of lack of nutrition, so that after a week, it stops cell division and enters Stationary state."

"Next, the nucleus of the unfertilized~sperm~egg~cell of the black-faced Scottish sheep is removed. The nucleus of the previously processed breast cell is implanted into the egg~cell, and the cells are stimulated by electric current to form a cell fusion. Eggs with new genetic material~cells,"

"This egg cell divides continuously in the test tube to form an embryo. When it grows to a certain extent, it is implanted into the surrogate mother's son to develop in the uterus until the final delivery is successful."

Looking at the Dolly, who looks like an ordinary sheep on the surface, Tang Huan asked curiously: "Although you put this process very simple, I am afraid that the actual situation is countless times more complicated~www.readwn.com ~It's really not easy." Keith Campbell, who was energized because his success was determined, said with a bitter thought: "It is undeniable that this set of technical solutions is not perfect-just implanting the nucleus of breast cells Among the egg cells, it was repeated 277 times; and these fused egg cells cultured in vitro, only about one-tenth, to be more precise, 29 embryos developed into embryos; then these 29 immature embryos were implanted into 13 embryos. The surrogate is pregnant with the ewe, and as a result, only one sheep gave birth to a lamb, which is the "Dolly" you see now."

"Then enjoy the honor that belongs to you." Tang Huan patted Keith Campbell, who is about his age, on the shoulder, and added, "Don't forget to find me about the mad cow disease. face."

There is also politics and governance in the scientific circle-Keith Campbell smiled at the sight that he would surely become the first signature of this scientific research initiative.

He immediately expressed his stance, "I won't forget it-our overall strength and honor must never be scorned."

...

Dolly the sheep, who proved that "a mammalian-specific differentiated cell can develop into a complete organism", once declared its success, it made a sensation in the world.

At the same time, it was accompanied by a rather entertaining topic.

Keith Campbell deliberately said at the press conference, "Facts have proved that our entire research organization is not only capable of developing Viagra, and giving a report on the status of mad cow disease."

This statement was immediately interpreted by the media as saying that the richest man Tang had settled the fall of Britain, which was debating endlessly because of the mad cow disease. Dare to say that my biotechnology research and development strength can only be produced as a drug, so well, now the strength lies here. Do you still dare to be tough?
