King of Hollywood Chapter 149: Another one
What's the problem? Well, maybe when the time comes to buy TBS, the price may be a little higher than it is now, but it will be a little higher. and then? Miramax? Oh, don't worry, the reason why you would like Miramax, in addition to the name of Hollywood's largest independent film company, is also because of the public relations capabilities of the Weinstein brothers.
Just now because of the emergence of Adrian, the two years of rapid development of Bosworth Films has divided the cake of independent films into no small piece, and Raphne’s public relations and operation capabilities are not tolerated under his support. Little sight. Adrian believes that as he develops, the resources used will continue to increase, and Laffern's capabilities will also play a greater role. Moreover, Miramax is cramped politically from time to time, so it doesn’t matter if Disney buys it.
So what's wrong? After thinking for a few minutes, Adrian simply threw the question aside. In any case, Claude is much stronger than him in this respect. Since he is now, then he will be dealt with by him, and it will not be too late to tell him when he has time to remember later.
"For the film company, let's do this for the time being," Adrian waved his hand, and then changed the subject, "I see the situation on the record company's side almost, if the producer thinks that the four kids have the potential to tap, Then I can consider starting packaging. I don’t have any opinions. However, I can help me find some better songwriters. I have a few good songs here... I want them to see them."
Claude listening to his ears raised his eyebrows: "Why, are you writing lyrics now?"
"It’s not that exaggerated, but I just recorded some fairly good clips before, maybe they can help to complete it," Adrian said seriously, gesturing, "Intuition tells me that maybe it will be great. Harvest."
"Is it?" Claude looked at him with interest, "I thought you were going to surprise me again, Ed, in those endless scenarios of scripts, the ones related to the virtual network Before the novel is finished. What song to write again."
"How is it possible," Adrian spread his hands together, "Everyone's energy is limited, and the concept of scripts and movies has taken up most of it, otherwise "Matrix" will not be worn to the present."
He said he waved his hand again: "Relax, that melody was recorded a long time ago. I only hope to find a good songwriter to patch it up, even if the record company can’t use it, I can take it. Go sing for my woman."
"Okay, I get it," Claude made a stop gesture. "But you'd better complete the novel as soon as possible. Gerlin has already told me many times in private. "
"He can tell me directly." Adrian is a little strange.
"He said that he has told you enough, and you are the boss, Ed." Claude reminded.
"But you are also the boss." Adrian shrugged.
"Ed"
"Okay, okay, but you know I can only take the time to make changes, at most guaranteed to be completed within next year." Adrian spread his hands, seeing him like this Claude was also helpless: "Slightly speed up the speed should be Isn’t that a problem?"
"Okay, I will try my best," Adrian sighed. "Doesn't the publishing company have any other books worth operating? Besides, I have told Ben Arnter about the next ideas of "Resident Evil". "
"Gerlin thinks that your virtual network novel will be very attractive if it works well in the current situation, and after studying a lot of network-related intelligence, I agree with this statement." Claude said with a smile.
"Sounds like you have become an Internet expert?" Adrian raised an eyebrow.
"Network experts dare not say it, but I do understand a lot, because a guy once told me that the Internet is our future." Claude looked at him with all his time. "But what is interesting is that After I visited several online studios, the guy told me not to be so fast."
"Of course, the Internet has just taken shape, and the real development has not yet begun." Adrian waved his hand.
"You always say that, you still owe me a brokerage company." Crowder frowned deliberately.
"Relax, since I promised you you won't go back on my words, remember to tell you that I already have the right person in mind, but it is not yet time." Said here that Claude's look is not very good-looking , He quickly changed the subject, "Yes, I think there is a game studio with great potential, maybe you can consider buying it."
"Damn it, you're here again. Film companies, publishing companies, brokerage companies, record companies, and not some other departments. Expansion too fast is not good anymore. Do you know how to make games?" Claude Said seemingly complaining.
"But I see excitement in your eyes, Crow, you clearly remember the purpose of our establishment of the media," Adrian smiled, "It doesn't matter, if you refuse, I will inject capital in my personal name, but, If I want to merge it into the company in the future, I will make a lot of conditions."
Claude looked at him for a while, then raised his hands: "Okay, what's the name of the studio, I have to have someone investigate it first."
"It should be called...silicon neural key, yes, it is the silicon neural key." Adrian recalled, "The name of the mouth, but you should know where it came from after hearing it. Although the current business is very simple , But I think they are very dynamic, and a dynamic studio is worth investing in. If you do not plan to acquire, then remember to notify me."
The name of Silicon Neural Keys Studio is not conspicuous, but in the previous life, it will have a new and compelling name: Blizzard Entertainment in four years' time
Yes, it was the Blizzard Entertainment who developed "Diablo", "StarCraft" and "Warcraft" and determined his position in the game world with only three games. He was called "Blizzard Entertainment produced by many game fans and must be a boutique" Entertainment.
However, this company that will create brilliance in the future is still a small studio. Several founders have just started to enter the game production. It would be foolish not to start now.
Although the top game production companies in the United States and Europe are more than Blizzard Entertainment, Adrian only has EA, Ubisoft, Westwood, Kuroshima, Blizzard Entertainment, and the S company that produced "Tomb Raider", and other than Blizzard Entertainment and S They don’t know much about it, and they may not be as good as some Japanese game production companies. After all, he didn't play games in the past, and he didn't play many games. He didn't know as much about it as game fans.
Adrian only knows that the Black Island is closed and Westwood is disbanded. After entering the new millennium, S is also a powerless successor. Only Blizzard Entertainment develops best. From a purely commercial point of view, who does Blizzard Entertainment choose?
As for EA and Ubisoft, the former is mainly for publishing games rather than making games. Although the probability of success of acquisitions is great now, TBS should not think about it; while the latter is a French company, if you want to control rather than hold shares, unless Relations and strength are in place, otherwise it will be difficult to ensure that the French government will not stumble.
So it’s best to calculate Blizzard Entertainment, and at the same time you can buy several game studios through them-S is in it, and "Tomb Raider" has to be made by them-since they have already published "Resident Evil" "Why can't the novel be adapted into a game by the way? It’s interesting to think about the American version of Resident Evil, isn’t it?
"Okay, I will." Claude looked at the time and stood up. "Come on, time is coming. This is the reception hosted by my father. Speaker Robert will also participate. We Don't be late."
"Can I not go?" Adrian sighed.
"Yes, if you want to be taught by my father at a family dinner on Thanksgiving," Claude shrugged. "Of course, don't expect me to speak for you at that time."
"Okay, okay, let’s go, I hope there is no Steve Jobs on the guest list."
"I have to regret to tell you that Ed, Steve is on the list. Why, don't you admire him? Why don't you want to see him now"
"If a guy meets you at the reception every time, he will chatter about the latest computer technology and find a way to invest in his company. You can’t stand it. What’s more terrible is if you If you listen carefully, you will unconsciously agree with his ideas and tell the truth, Steve should really do pyramid sales."
"Haha, I can't help you. It was you who contacted him, so naturally you have to deal with it."
Although the game production was only mentioned temporarily because of the change of topic~IndoMTL.com~, Adrian has taken time to collect a lot of information in this respect, otherwise it will not be so serious with Claude. Of course, this is only a rough plan, as Claude said, he still has to investigate.
However, Adrian is also not just for fun. If Claude feels that it is worthless, he will inject capital in his own name. Since there is fat in the mouth, it is natural to eat it first. As for the future, the game may fail due to the butterfly effect and it will not be considered.
Besides, Adrian itself is affecting everything at any time and any place. He always believes that since he has been reborn and still has so many advantages, he will certainly be able to accomplish his goals
Game production is currently only a small part of his huge plan, and now the main energy has to focus on film production. And he already had a better and better idea about the direction of the company. Now he has to wait for the time to come, and step by step according to his own plan.
So, let’s draw our attention back to "Scent of a Woman". It will go online in early November, and has received 30 million North American box offices in less than three weeks before Thanksgiving ()
