Reborn American Tycoon
Page 38
The expansion of the winery has been completed, and the fruit juice factory is still under construction next door. Although he is not short of money, he still has a loan of 2000 million from the bank.
The state government has interest subsidies. He is not a stupid son of a landlord. Since you need publicity, you just need to cooperate with him.
With a fruit juice factory, the surrounding grapes will not be wasted. For the farmers in the surrounding area, this is undoubtedly a very good project.
In fact, white wines are doing pretty well right now, at least in the Los Angeles area.
You know, before this, Texas red wine was regional red wine, and high-end places were still from Bordeaux.
Although not much has changed now, some people are still willing to give it a try.
There is still a celebrity effect in the matter of fashion, and careful audiences will also find that the red wines that appear in William White's movies are, without exception, White Winery.
There may not be too obvious effects in the short term, and William White believes that as time goes by, there will definitely be more people who like this wine.
Sommeliers can tell the difference between good and bad, but to the average person, it's all bullshit.
The red wine suitable for Laomei is definitely not Bordeaux. Tuao and Texas are definitely better. This has something to do with the diet structure.
You said hamburger?
Essentially speaking, this thing is still a steak, but it does not need to be cut with a knife. A more refined hamburger is definitely a freshly grilled steak, not that kind of minced meat.
The characteristic of Texas red wine is full-bodied, just like concentrated red wine, and it complements the strong taste of Laomei.
Lao Mei still has a lot of support for her own agricultural products, and officials will even act as salesmen.
This year's farm is a disaster, and now a reliable one has finally come, which requires strong support.
William White's propaganda is very simple, it is celebrity effect plus patriotism.
The wine merchants in Texas are happy, because under such a harsh environment, the sales of red wine have increased slightly.
Some people are happy, but others are unhappy. The agents of French wine are naturally very dissatisfied. Their sales have dropped. In their opinion, Texas wine is too rubbish, and everyone is not on the same level.
Well, you can complain in private, but if you challenge it publicly, it is definitely an abnormal brain.
It's just some agents, William White will care about these, haven't you seen other French wineries not expressing their views?
In fact, it doesn't matter at all whether the Yankees drink or not.The arrogance of the Gallic rooster is definitely not bragging, because in their view, other than them, other people in this world do not know how to make red wine, nor do they know how to drink red wine. Selling these red wines to them is pure waste.
The capital market is very confused, why did this guy go to agriculture.
In their view, red wine and beverages are useless, they are completely dead ends, Coca-Cola is on the street, how can you still have fun?
William White drools every time he sees Coca-Cola's share price.
Such a cheap price is simply a free gift. If it weren't for his lack of funds, he would have built a large position long ago.
The current CEO is a prodigal son, and the two parents-in-law travel around the world on the company's plane every day. It's a hell of a company like this.
You just sell carbonated drinks and engage in gross diversification?
Fortunately, William White has enough time. This is something he plans to put into the family fund, and it will be fine to slowly accumulate funds in the future.
This year's economy is bad, and it will be even worse next year. Coupled with their own efforts, Coke's stock will definitely be below ten dollars.
But there is not much time left. William White remembers clearly that Coca-Cola will change the boss next year, and this is the best opportunity.
Buffett only bought it in 89. Before that, Coca-Cola had risen nearly five times. Buffett invested 13 billion, and the final profit was more than 150 billion. This investment was highly touted in later generations, but it was a pity that it was not too big after 2000. It's getting better.
With the improvement of living standards, the demand for carbonated drinks is declining. Although Coca-Cola is also trying to transform, it seems that it is just average, and it is not easy to make money lying down.
Natural fruit juice drinks actually started in 2000. William White is a little early now, and the market acceptance will not be so high.
Even if it is a rainy day, it’s not good if you don’t have a brand. Now it can only be used as a foreshadowing. Let’s occupy the high-end market first. The rich people in the United States still pay attention to these things.
"Master, it's almost time for dinner." Forbe said with a smile.
"I'm really hungry. What can I eat today?" William White spent a lot of time walking around the winery, feeling like he could eat a cow.
"Master, they bought a few Tuao lobsters, which should be much tastier than those in Boston."
"Hey, Forbe, we should get an aquarium for later use. I like it better."
"Okay, young master, let someone arrange it."
The seafood in this era is all cooked, which makes William White very depressed, and he doesn't know what's going on with these fishermen. What do you mean by steaming it directly?
I have to say that someone still looks at things from the perspective of future generations. In this era, prices are not expensive, and lobsters are not precious things. This thing is not easy to feed. If there is no special need, this is the standard operation.
Guilao is actually very clear that dead seafood will not taste good. After steaming and then refrigerating, this has kept the taste to the greatest extent.
In the afternoon, I have to cut down trees. Although it won’t snow, Christmas trees are still necessary. The farm is just this convenient. Trees are cut casually, and they are worthless anyway.
William White was feasting, Erha was also desperately eating, this guy was completely crazy on the farm, he wanted to provoke everything, and he was honest after being beaten by a few turkeys.
Laomei’s turkey is very fat, and these guys know that time is running out. They even dare to bully the boss’s dog. Don’t think that turkey is only eaten on Thanksgiving, and Christmas dinner is also available.
The box office of Home Alone in the second week is still gratifying. The exact amount will depend on the last two days. It is estimated that 2000 million is not lost.
In this way, this is a huge donation, and the mainstream media naturally needs a big book.
William White has been participating in various charity parties. Although it looks very lively, the amount of donations is not large, and it may not be as much as this time.
The previous good deeds have already won a good reputation, but this time it is a step closer. If you dare to say that you are a bumpkin, you will probably be angry.
It's not popular to be low-key in Laomei. You earned money legally, so you can't make too much publicity.
If he is just a second-generation ancestor who relies on his parents, he will definitely not have any social status. At most, he is a little jealous, and he doesn't know what to say about him behind his back.
If he dared to spend as much money as he did, he would not be able to escape the reputation of a prodigal son.
Chapter 86 Buddies Hate Coercion
William White's opponents have a headache. They can foresee that the bright Hollywood will become a Shura field, because there is no boss who will not be jealous.
What is the concept of two consecutive small-cost box office over [-] million?
This is Hong Guoguo's hatred.
Is there any use for your Superman's [-] million box office?
The cost is at least 3000 million, right?
The announcement cost of 500 million is not too much, right?
Excluding other subsequent profits, the money you earn is a fraction of others. Even if your video tape rental is good, others are not as good as you?
Hollywood screenwriters have been driven crazy. If they can't come up with a script that the boss is satisfied with, they may all have to pack up and leave.
What's the use of having experience?
You are all failure experiences, not as good as a sophomore.
Does Hollywood lack scripts?
A place where even taxi drivers write scripts, there's never a shortage of scripts.
A first-rate director has always been a second-rate script. This is the norm in Hollywood.
Actors are obviously not used to it, it's not that they can't act, William White really has no lower limit.
The police school is better. It's miserable for a kid to be the two guys in the family. This kind of role is really only accepted by the street.
No matter how much money you give, Sylvester Stallone and Mel Gibson won't make it. They like to play roles that blow up the sky, and they will definitely not play clowns.
They don't know how to shoot, and Hollywood's street rush doesn't matter. In their opinion, these two guys are simply touched by the goddess of luck.
William White's requirements for the role are already known to the outside world. There is no need for acting skills at all, and whoever has a face that is more vulnerable will be the one.
Now the salary of the two guys has already started at 50, which is the level of Hollywood's second-tier.
Those who rushed to the street were surprised to find that White Films is very kind, and the crew members get a share based on their income, which is as high as 5%.Although it is only in North America, it is enough to shock the world.
The box office of Home Alone has already started at 20 million, and the salary of these two street hits is 50 US dollars, and if the bonus is included, it is more than [-] US dollars.
Normally, giving 20 to the two guys is already a favor, and who will give the box office share, but this is indeed the rule of White Films, and the boss always takes money according to this ratio.
Seriously speaking, William White took less, and the script plus director was only 150 million.
Obviously, people didn't play tricks on this. To be honest, as long as William White's script is presented, it is worth at least 200 million.
Don't be unconvinced by this, the results can convince everything, unless he has failed once, otherwise the price will only be high or low.
Both screenplays are in the film school, so it's not difficult to get them.
There are mixed reviews of his directing ability, but even a director of Lucas' level can't say much about his script.
It can be seen that this guy is indeed born in a major. Although he hasn't graduated yet, his script is indeed like a textbook. If you can't shoot well with such a script, you probably won't be able to be a director.
William White is not the Holy Mother, so he has no choice but to distribute the benefits in this way. There is no agent to talk to this group of people on the street. Once there is an agent team, all kinds of wrangling will definitely cause headaches.
Many good movies can't make sequels. The main reason is that the salary is too expensive. To what extent did Tom Cruise and Vin Diesel's salary end up?
One hundred million dollars.
This does not include other peripheral income.
Why did Xtreme Agent change?
Who the hell can afford this price.
Mission: Impossible has become Cruise's private product. Without a strong heart, it's better not to cooperate with these guys.
It's not right to say that it's all about the actors. Here we have to talk about the hidden overlords of Hollywood.
There are two types of agencies in Hollywood, one is called CAA and the other is called others.
What CAA is best at is all kinds of packaged services. The choice of supporting roles in many movies is decided by them. This kind of package plan looks good, but when your movie is a big hit, they will get stuck in your neck when it comes to sequels.
William White's approach is actually to copy CAA, which belongs to the internal packaging of the enterprise.
The signing is also based on the series model. He plans to make several films, and the actors must also sign in advance. Although the remuneration of each film will be superimposed, there will be a lot of increases.
But human nature is greedy. If you can't share the benefits, they will definitely lose their mentality.If CAA is provoking a bit, the sequel may be difficult to produce.
On this point, Lao Mei will not be polite, no matter how good the relationship is, it is useless, if there is no way to meet their requirements, they will really choose to lose both sides.
William White is not stingy, but he will never accept unreasonable remuneration. This kind of bundled share is good, at least temporarily avoiding a lot of risks.
In fact, CAA also found out that their method is useless in White Films. If they disagree with White Films' request, the actors will be directly kicked out, and they will no longer have the opportunity to audition in the future.
Before Home Alone became popular, CAA didn't take it seriously. If this movie hits the street, you will inevitably be ridiculed by a group of guys.
The situation is different now. The two actors who were kicked out are very angry. This is not a good thing for CAA. If they can't be appeased in time, their reputation will be ruined.
CAA was dropped when MyoTan came out with more casting, and they didn't really care about that at the time, but that's not the case now, and many of their clients have expressed their dissatisfaction.
These bastards have figured it out, they are just small-produced comedies, and there are a lot of actors to choose from, no matter how many big-name actors you have in your hand, it is useless, they don't need it at all.
If the relationship continues to deteriorate, they may set up their own brokerage company. If it is impossible to buy one, they will be competitors by then, and it is normal to completely break up.
It is not easy to reconcile, the culture of the company is like this, no one is indispensable, and the actors' remuneration will never be increased without limit.
The brokerage company got a share, so of course they were unwilling to accept it. In their view, William White was just messing around.
Is it necessary to pay dividends for lighting and camera?
You have all the tricks of meow, which is really outrageous, their salary is already high enough, how can they ask for more.
CAA's thinking is obviously very one-sided. Hollywood practitioners welcome William White's approach very much. If White Pictures expands its recruitment again, the core teams of several giants will be shaken.
This is not a small amount of money, similar to this kind of movie with a box office of over [-] million dollars, their income is very impressive.
Can you make a movie as a star?
Why do you have dividends alone.
Your salary is terrible, and the dividends are much more than other people, and you still want to take our share, it is simply unbearable.
Any behavior that cuts the interests of the crew will be resisted by the entire crew, not to mention that William White doesn't want such people, even if they enter the crew, they will have no way to survive, and if they don't get killed by someone, it will be smoke from the ancestral grave.
Chapter 87 The Legendary World
A game company named Legendary World appeared in Los Angeles. It was an old-fashioned six-story building. There were not many people in the company, only some decoration workers were busy.
This year's real estate-related industries are very bad. If it weren't for this reason, what kind of workers are there at this time, and no amount of money is useless.
Looking at the large-scale spraying on the wall, it should already have its own product, because it has never been seen on the market.
The game company that appeared on the eve of Christmas did not make the game industry react. The bosses who can make decisions have already gone on vacation, and these guys who stayed behind did not pay much attention.
The game industry is very closed, and it has not received much attention in this era. Let alone home game consoles, even arcade machines are very simple, and the picture is really speechless.
Several game manufacturers in the foot basin have not yet entered the state, and they are still imitating Lao Mei.
This is really no way, their target customers are the garrison, how to serve this group of uncles is serious, other things can be temporarily given up.
