Reborn American Tycoon
Page 46
All of a sudden, other film companies had an illusion. Could it be that the previous quick shooters were all illusions, and that step-by-step is the normal state of others.
William White's game is innovation. He doesn't want to be a rule breaker. Hollywood has its mode of operation. This set of things is very mature. It's fine for Xiao Guicao to do as he pleases, so why bother.
Well, Xiao Gui and Cao Sui couldn’t translate it. It’s just four Chinese characters. If you want to explain it clearly, it’s probably a short story.
This is where the charm of Chinese characters lies. When you go to Hollywood to test the waters, you must not have too many dialogues. Idioms are absolutely not allowed. Unless you want to engage in voice-overs, the old beauty will definitely be in the dark.
Leaving aside the preparations here, William White continued his own filming.
Compared with the chaotic neighborhoods of Greater Los Angeles, the filming here is very smooth, without too many passers-by.Many Hollywood movies are filmed here, and the reason is obvious. The security is good, the population is not too dense, and the location is highly recognizable, which will give the audience a good sense of substitution.
Of course, there are many shortcomings. The location shooting of Beverly is too expensive.
Although the police here are very cooperative, the fees are unambiguous. As long as you can pay enough US dollars, you don't need to find extras.
Lao Mei's extras are not cheap, and they definitely can't be paid for a box lunch. If the shooting speed is not fast enough, the money is still very gratifying.
Many so-called big productions need that kind of big scene. In this era, there are no special effects.
The so-called big productions are generally historical themes, and a lot of group performances will make people vomit blood.
In the United States, nothing is too expensive, except people.
There is really no way to do this thing. If you dare to shoot heroes in the United States, the production cost is estimated to be over [-] million. People will not cooperate with you in making movies. Otherwise, I will kill you without discussion.
If you watch old American war movies, you will find that they often start grandly, but they like to use small characters and small groups as the main line of the movie.
It’s not that they don’t know how to shoot big scenes. This one really can’t afford it. The opening minutes of Saving Private Ryan cost tens of millions. If you dare to keep filming, a hundred million won’t be enough for you.
Mao Zi has the ability to shoot, but unfortunately their ways are different. Usually, it is completed with a few gestures in the war room. At most, he taps the map with a pipe, and then wins various victories. It seems that he does not need to pay any price.
Chapter 1 Tangled Schedule
John Bull began to be self-conscious. This time, he chose London as the location for this big Hollywood production. Not only was John Bull the leading actor, but there were also many familiar faces.
The most important thing is that this movie will premiere in London. In fact, it would be nice to be able to release it simultaneously. They have always eaten leftovers, and this time they actually completed a counterattack.
For people who are used to eating leftovers, they are naturally filled with all kinds of resentment. Now everything is different. Not only can they watch movies at the same time as the American guys, but they can even watch movies one step ahead.
This group of guys is actually brain twitching. Isn't Home Alone the premiere in London?
Lao Mei didn't think too much about the self-promotion of a group of country bumpkins. They had too many choices. It doesn't matter if it's later or earlier. Isn't there still a Spielberg movie?
No matter what the reason was, the domineering kid chose to avoid it, which made Lucas breathe a sigh of relief. He didn't intend to confront this guy head-on. After making a phone call, he was actually very face-saving.
"Made, the rumors are unreliable. Who the hell said this guy is arrogant and unreasonable? He is very good at things on the scene, and it definitely doesn't match his age." Lucas complained that he couldn't control him, but the Hollywood tycoon was loose Take a breath, it's not enough to just do it blindly, everything can be discussed.
William White is not stupid. Raiders of the Lost Ark was the box office champion in 81. Agent Bean can't do it. It doesn't make much sense to win by fluke.
What's more, there is no need to offend Lucas and Spielberg. These two are more troublesome than giants. It is best to maintain a tacit understanding. After all, he is here to make money.
Hollywood's top circle is extremely xenophobic, not to mention that everyone has different religious beliefs, what about Spielberg, a Jewish director?
DreamWorks is not the same as being played to death by others.
They just have nothing to do with White Films for the time being. The current economic environment is not good, and there are too many moths. If you want to push this little guy into a hurry, it may be a disaster.
The current economic environment is too similar to that before World War II. Although it is not that bad, it may continue to deteriorate.
Transferring social contradictions is a compulsory course for politicians. If there is another activity to denounce Jewish capitalists, they will definitely die worse than pigs.
During World War II, the only country that received these guys was China, so it goes without saying how hated they are.
Unscrupulous acquisition of wealth does not matter, the key is to have the strength to protect the wealth, if you do not have the strength to protect it, it is best to stop in moderation, otherwise disaster will come.
Capital is bloody and cruel, so why does John Bull have trouble with China?
To put it bluntly, it is profit.
With nothing to sell to the Celestials, silk and tea had emptied their coffers, and the only option was to go to war.
It has been reported that their parliament reluctantly passed the war motion, and the forces opposed to aggression accounted for a considerable number of people. It was only recently that there was news that the parliament at that time rejected the motion, and the so-called expeditionary force was simply illegal.
This war was initiated by capitalists at all, and Jewish businessmen did not play a very glorious role.
The reason is very simple. Jewish merchants accounted for the majority of foreign firms selling opium in the Celestial Dynasty, and Sassoon Foreign Firm in Shanghai and Jardine Foreign Firm in Xiangjiang were the two largest.These two are all of Jewish background.
After World War II, they learned to be good, and they were indeed afraid of being killed.
They don't want to go through it again, so they learn to compromise, they learn to cling, and they learn the importance of advocacy.
For those with delusions of persecution, it is best for everyone to live in peace. William White will not provoke them, but he is definitely not afraid of any provocation.
The media is the foundation of others, and there will inevitably be conflicts in the end. I just hope that this kind of conflict is more benign, and it is better not to cause anger and resentment.
Lao Mei also has people who understand, you have tossed too much, someone still came out to slap you in the face.
The only one who may be upset is Steve Ross. Atari has become a joke, and Warner movies have also been hit hard.
Giant?
Ha ha!
People really don't care.
This year's summer has Star Wars, no matter how arrogant William White is, he doesn't have the confidence to fight head-to-head. This is the rhythm of playing to death.
There is no way to meet Warner's The Shining at the same time as The Empire Strikes Back. The summer vacation is the most important time in North America. If you don't fight for it, no one will take care of you.
The Shining is adapted from Stephen King's novel. Although the filming is good, but the audience is not big, it's just a horror movie.
It's not that William White underestimated horror films, horror films of this era would not perform very well. With Star Wars, other films are actually dead.
What's more, the quality of The Empire Strikes Back is quite good, it can be regarded as the pinnacle of this era, and the only choice is to extend the schedule.
The box office of movies in 80 was far better than that in 79. Due to the influence of White Films, this year's comedies are crowded together. It is still too early to say whether they can break out of the tight encirclement.
The communication with Lucas was very pleasant, and William White no longer cared about the schedule issue.
Of course, United Artists is also very hard-pressed. Their Heaven's Gate Crashed Car 2, although their mouths are full of confidence, they are actually very guilty. Fortunately, there is a week of vacancy, and the audience is not allowed to choose one or the other.
Regarding Heaven's Gate, William White is waiting to see the excitement, and really doesn't understand why an Oscar-level director can make such a wonderful movie.
After winning the award, the director is too inflated and always hopes to instill something in the audience. Failure is actually inevitable, but this time he will let the little ghost take advantage of it.
"Suzuki, help me arrange the trip to the footbath." William White said to his personal assistant after struggling with the schedule.
Considering the convenience of connecting with the foot basin, William White still transferred the mixed-race girl from Tu'ao.
"Okay, boss, I'll arrange it right away."
Although the height is flawed, but the obedience of the foot basin girl is first-class, and she is quite skilled in serving people, so William White reluctantly accepted it.
Of course, being his assistant is not easy, and you need to sign a series of legal terms.
William White has so many secrets, but any leak is a big deal, and we must be more cautious in this regard.
The layout of the foot basin is very important, and the interests involved here are not small, so it is better to be cautious.
The three footbath game manufacturers are already crazy busy, and they all want to complete the order as soon as possible. Now there are not only orders from Laomei, but the demand from Europe and footbath is also increasing.
The Legendary World Company in Los Angeles is basically a showroom, with different customers coming every day, and various orders are also coming in an endless stream.
Looking at it now, the original assessment was still on the low side. It would not be difficult for an arcade to sell a billion dollars a year. If this year's new games are equally powerful, it will be difficult not to make a fortune.
Since Miguo's father is worried, the foot basin people will naturally take it seriously, they don't have the confidence to challenge them yet.
Chapter 1 The layout of the foot basin
The foot basin was much colder than Los Angeles. Putting on his cashmere coat, William White walked down the gangway slowly.
Several footbath companies were declined to pick up the plane, and William White and his party left in a car sent by the comic company.
Yes, Vikings Comics already has its own studio in Footbath and is setting up distribution outlets.
For the current foot basin people, this humble manga studio is irrelevant, and more people care about his adapter card business.
Although it is a private jet, the long flight is also very hard. William White intends to let himself relax for a day, so he chooses to meet those guys tomorrow.
Well, someone has started to be hypocritical again. If he takes a civil flight, he probably won't have too much trouble. After all, it's only a dozen hours, and it's not flying from New York to Tokyo.
After soaking in a comfortable hot bath, the fatigue on my body has been relieved a lot, but this Japanese-style nightgown is a bit nonsense.
Nima, you actually said it was a plus size?
"Suzuki, bring me a nightgown and come in."
"Hi, please wait a moment."
Since someone intends to learn Japanese, the little beauty also tried to express in Japanese.
William White found that his status had improved so quickly. It was completely different from English. You didn't need to understand what they meant. You could feel how tall you were just from the tone of your voice.
After eating three servings of wagyu beef, William White was very speechless. Fortunately, he is now in room service. If he is seen by the footbath outside, he must be very surprised.
Seeing that the boss has a good appetite, the little beauty is very happy.
William White was a little dizzy, and he really couldn't figure out why the feet of the girl's teeth were so weird.
Well, people don't think there's anything wrong with Huya, and some people think it's very playful and cute.
Someone's bad reaction is due to his bad taste, and the sharp canine teeth always make him feel a little frightened.
What if you get bitten at that time?
You don't need a knife to eat watermelon, it's really scary.
I thought it was a special case, but it turned out that it was not. I saw at least two of them in the hotel, and it might be an attribute of genetics.
Could it be for the convenience of eating raw meat?
The three game manufacturers were just looking at the flowers, and he didn't have time to go to their factories to see their prototypes in Tokyo and he was done.
He has never doubted the manufacturing ability of the foot basin. The foot basin people of this era are very serious, but the next generation will not be so reliable.
When he came to the footbath this time, the focus was on inspecting his studio, he didn't have time to grind his teeth with the old guy.
In fact, they are also crazy busy, since there is no need to arrange, they are still busy with their own affairs.
He is no stranger to these guys from the comic company, and they have all been in Los Angeles for at least two weeks.
He came here this time just to observe the progress at close range. The focus of the manga is on the foot basin and Darwin. If it can't be completed in time, he will have to increase manpower.
The result is naturally very good, far ahead of the progress of Los Angeles. William White is a little proud of his own arrangement. If there is no current arrangement, half of the progress is considered good.
Hard work naturally needs to be rewarded. He is not a footbath, and there is no way to tie this group of guys with corporate culture. Then there is only a big stick of gold dollars, which is equally useful everywhere.
"Fujita, pay attention to suitable office buildings, we need a better office environment."
As the person in charge of the foot basin, Fujita has great power, and he is not worried about the company's development. The boss is not short of money, and the IP in his hand is also very good. There is absolutely no reason to lose money.
"Okay, boss, what is the approximate size?"
"Tsk, you don't talk about squares here, and I can't say it. You know White Films, right? It's better to be bigger than it."
Fujita was dizzy suddenly, the foot basin was no better than Miguo, the so-called 12-story building was very good here.
"Okay, boss, I'll go look for it right away."
"Well, there is nothing else. This matter should be implemented as soon as possible. Keep working hard."
"Hey, be sure to work hard."
William White nodded and left. He didn't have much time in the foot basin, and the investment department here had to be established as soon as possible.
Like all multinational companies, overseas profits are a black hole. As long as you don't start dividends, no one will collect your taxes even if you continue to invest.
William White is already considered kind, and he will return part of his profits to the adapter cards sold in the United States.
As for other areas, hehe, buddies still have a lot of things to invest in.
This is a reasonable tax avoidance in the United States. If you are more outrageous, you can make overseas companies suffer substantial losses.
Don't be surprised, listed companies dare to do this, and shareholders have no opinion yet.
Every time the United States cuts taxes significantly, there is always a large amount of capital returning. This is almost a practice, and no one has a temper when he is the boss.
On the eve of taking off of the foot basin economy, he will not give up this opportunity. In addition to the capital on the surface, there must be some offshore companies.
It's good to make small troubles for the time being. As long as the time is right, you can build a large-scale position immediately.
"Suzuki, urge the printing machinery to complete the contract as soon as possible. I won't go this time, and wait until the machinery and equipment are in place."
Darwin's printing factory has been replaced by a shotgun, and the locals really don't understand, what's the use of so many machines?The whole Darwin area can't use these things.
The final problem is transportation. The cheapest is undoubtedly shipping, but unfortunately the speed is a bit slow.
Weekly magazines are time-sensitive. If the quantity is not large, of course it can be sent by airmail. If the quantity is too large, it will be troublesome. Airmail is not enough to compensate.
