Reborn American Tycoon
Page 650
You know, audiovisual books are our specialty at Amazon. "Jeff Bezos sighed, knowing that there will be a world mall, why should he go to William White.
He wanted to take things step by step, but William White only seized the day and night.With such a big difference, it is inevitable to part ways, if he can calm down, or there is still a honeymoon period.
"Jeff, price concessions are out of the question. Now it looks like Pentium III is a piece of crap, we are trying to get AMD, you wait. ?
Or at the end of the year, Microsoft heard that there is a small facelift.If it's just win2000, I don't think it's necessary to upgrade.
By the way, how about the legendary business phone? "
Jeff Bezos pouted, this thing is a bit like Motorola.Not only the appearance is very similar, but also the internal application software is very similar.
"Relatively small, why, Dell also has a mobile phone?"
"Hey, I'm not good at mobile phones, but the market for this PDA is really not small. We will launch it in the second half of the year, how about it? Give a special page?"
"Easy to say, easy to say. However, your competition seems to be very fierce, as far as I know, HP and Compaq may be earlier than you.
Dude, you need to work harder. "
Chapter 343
Michael Dell was very speechless. My buddy is just a dentist. It is an eye-opener to come to this point.
What kind of company is HP?
Even if you are against the guy who is not convinced by IBM, what background do you guys use to fight.As for Compaq, although the company is new, the people inside are not.I poached the Texas Instruments team from the very beginning, and that's what I, a dentist, can PK.
If the other two knew what this fellow was thinking, they would definitely raise two middle fingers in greeting.Sluts are always very hypocritical, do you know how much we envy your shit luck now.
"Jeff, the recent DVDs are selling well? I heard that many video rental stores are about to close."
"I heard?" Jeff Bezos was very disapproving of this guy's hypocrisy.What bullshit I heard, some people say that DVDs are boycotted.Hey, every time someone loses their job, something incredible happens.
"What do you say, it's not just my place, eBay and World Mall also have impressive sales. Even those guys who are about to go bankrupt actually sell a lot.
Dude, if the price difference is not too big, it's better to get it as standard. "
Well, Michael Dell didn't care about being exposed.He has actually made up his mind, and this is just a confirmation.
Today, it seems that no one can understand the development trend of PC.This stuff will eventually enter most American families like televisions and VCRs.
Now that this is a personal PC, the design for entertainment must be taken seriously.It can be seen from the design of the CPU that the design concept of the subsequent Pentium II and III generations is the continuation of MMX.
As for the GPU, the birth of this thing seems to be for entertainment.If you have a graphics card with built-in hardware decompression, you can handle any video file.
If there is no so-called recommendation from the DVD Alliance, how could the GPU of the White system occupy half of the country.It is precisely because of this alliance that a group of Hollywood bigwigs love and hate it.
Whether you are satisfied or unhappy, this thing seems to have become a reality.
Of course, you said, can I start from scratch?
It seems that it is not so easy.
"Kobayashi-san, what do you know about the situation? If we launch a higher-quality format, what is the attitude of other manufacturers?"
"President, the situation doesn't seem to be good. We are under a lot of pressure. If one is not good, a situation similar to MD may happen."
Well, the old guy is very angry. As Suomi's boss, he certainly hopes to find his own way.
pity!
Let’s not talk about the DVD, since this thing meets the needs of most people, so what if your Suomi family doesn’t accept it.That MD is even more stupid, besides being able to entertain himself, there is no use for it.
Indeed, this stuff works better than CDs.But so what, just an expensive price has already discouraged many people.
Also, why should we accept the format you dominate.
As for William White?
This seems to be incomparable, as soon as they come up, they will show the horses and horses.Yes, I just want to pluck the goose, but, our requirements are very low, and most of the proceeds are used in the follow-up research and development of high-definition video.
Moreover, if you join the DVD Alliance, many fees are actually exempted.Of course, you have to pay a part of the dues, which is also a matter of course.If you only take but don't pay, you really think that William White is a fool.
"President, there is another problem that will be very troublesome. I heard a rumor that the United States seems to intend to regulate various audio-visual formats."
"Asshole, how is this possible, it must be a rumor."
"President, I'm afraid not. I heard that some councilors have prepared a proposal."
Uh, the old guy is depressed, some things in the United States are actually very miraculous.Just like they lost to JVC in the video recorder system back then, from a data point of view, Somi has an overall advantage.
However, if you don't use it, you don't need it.It doesn't matter if you toss about professional equipment, ordinary civilian products are simply impossible to use.The reason given at the end is to protect the interests of consumers.
The reason is actually true. If I buy a VCR, of course I should be able to watch all the videotapes on the market.If your country doesn't have a standard, don't consumers need to buy several.
If you lose the US standard, you have lost everything.Of course you can start anew in Europe and Japan, but how do you convince those manufacturers.After all, the needs of the market are different. After all, the United States is the world's largest consumer country.
What, Little Japan is also very powerful. The video recorder is basically the same as the TV set, which is a necessity of life.If you don't have this, it's useless to buy more paper towels.
Here we are going to talk about Japanese action movies.It's funny to say that the region with the largest circulation may still be the United States.Don't look at Little Japan as wretched, their review is actually quite strict, and in this way, a mosaic that hinders the progress of human development was born.
Ever since, many Japanese registered their companies in West Hollywood.I filmed and produced in Japan, distributed in the United States, and finally exported these products to Japan.
After going around in a circle, you will find that the fog that originally hindered the view is gone, and it is replaced by fine details.
Do you know where Blu-ray HD has the highest penetration rate?
Hey, it seems like the whole world knows about it.It's just a pity, too high a resolution is also troublesome, and your pork chops can't fool people.
"Damn, I don't make any money anymore, why am I still like this. Could it be that you can't respect my copyright?"
Listening to William White's complaints, Jason Gao was also speechless.Your family is so useful, if the whole of Hollywood can be like this, there is not much room for piracy.
"Boss, at the very least, you sell a lot of decoding chips. Although the profit is not high now, it is still an industry.
Hey, it's just that group of little Japanese who are miserable, being overwhelmed by their domestic brands.
Well, you don't seem to be worried about Little Japan's complaints. "
"Why do you need to worry? They can try it. If there is no user base, where do you go to buy cheap discs!" William White didn't care about Little Japan's dissatisfaction.You just bully the production efficiency here in the United States. If you compete with the companies in the big rabbit country, you will probably die very ugly.
Market share is everything. Even if you come up with a format close to DVD and the cost is similar, you may not have any chance.
Wait, after those capable people get down, you will know what it means to be scheming.Regardless of your computer or mobile phone, as long as you use this video encoding method, you have to pay for it.
Chapter 344 Content is King
"Is it possible to buy it back?" Facing Steve Case's inquiry, a group of bigwigs were speechless.Although I don't like to see this arrogant guy, but what can I say.
Comics, games, and then a live-action comic adaptation.Oh my god, they found out that they were cheated. The DC comics that were sold at the price of cabbage at the beginning may never come back one day.
What kind of game can you make money without losing money?
Anyone in Silicon Valley can tell you, DC or Marvel, if it really doesn’t work, Disney can too.As long as the computer games adapted from comic characters are not too rubbish, there is no need to worry about sales.
What movie is the easiest to make money?
If you look at White Pictures, you will know that Titanic is good, but the risk is also great.A safer investment is naturally those manga movies.
Now you say you want to acquire DC?
Just kidding, it was garbage at the beginning, but now it is a gold mine.Looking at the current Disneyland, you can actually change the name to Manga Empire directly.If it is bought by someone like this, other people's paradise will not be able to open.
The most profitable theme park in the world is one of the few.Well, with such a cornucopia, you thought William White was crazy.
"Steve, I don't think this is possible. I have learned about his past in detail. His investment purpose is very strong, and he usually has long-term plans." Although he was only invited to attend the meeting, Stephen Ross was not stage frightened.From his point of view, the guy opposite him was even more unruly than William White, but unfortunately, he didn't seem to have the wisdom or luck of that guy.
"Oh, I don't know. Stephen, you know, there is such a concept of IP now, and our understanding of this concept is still relatively superficial." Knowing that this offends people, there is no way.Steve Case was also cornered.Although it has not officially merged with Time Warner, there is no way to wait slowly.
It is true that Time Warner's comprehensive strength is comparable to that of White Media, or even slightly better.
However, the winning part of Time Warner is mainly the paper media.Well, if it successfully merges with MOL, I believe it will still lead in some places.
However, the development of paper media seems to have reached a bottleneck.
This is actually nothing. What makes Steve Case unbearable the most is the conflict of ideas.Nima, it should not be the honeymoon period yet, it seems that there is a possibility of breaking up.
"Steve, we can't rush now. First of all, the acquisition has not been completed, and secondly, we are also making our own efforts in the use of IP." As a black buddy executive, Dick Parsons is of course also Not an easy person.In fact, he was one of the directors who strenuously opposed the merger.
Don't look at the discrimination in American society. If there is really no such thing, why should you keep talking about it.
Yes, there are great niggas in all walks of life.If you compare them horizontally, you will find that there is absolutely nothing simple.
"Dick, I don't doubt Time Warner's ability. I think, in the age of the Internet, can we speed up the pace?"
"This is not good advice, or you don't understand this industry. Dear Steve, let alone buying a comic book company, a movie that costs tens of millions is really nothing to an Internet company. Some companies throw money every month. The reward for going out is not less than tens of millions of dollars
However, investing in movies is not like this. "
Dick Parsons wasn't trying to humiliate this guy, in fact, he was a very down-to-earth guy.Since the merger is already the general trend, it is actually very necessary to strengthen mutual cooperation and understanding.
Steve Case also understood that finding an excellent script is only the first step.
Don't look at William White's banknotes, he will also crowdfund his movies.Hollywood, under the seemingly glamorous surface, is actually no different from those assembly lines.
As for the value of IP, the risk of changing comic films is extremely high.
Is Superman's IP enough for 13?
The first two episodes were so-so, and as for the latter ones, you can only use one sentence to describe them.
If you can succeed by copying the plot of the comics, God, how can DC be sold at a low price.
"Go on, Brian, don't mind me."
"Okay, boss, tell me if it's inappropriate." Bryan Singer's heart is full of crap, boss, how can the group of bastards below be calm when you come here with such a great god.
Things have become more and more over the years, and William White has rarely appeared on the set.However, the meaning of this X-Men is different. If the opening chapter is not done well, there will be no way to get into the Marvel Universe later.
The X-Men is actually an attempt. For a long time, American emperors prefer lonely heroes.Anyway, the good guys crush all the way, no matter how cunning the bad guys are, they will die miserably in the end.
The X-Men is different, and it starts to talk about teamwork.Good people are not perfect, and as for bad people, they may not necessarily be so bad.To be honest, the subject matter of this kind of comics is not flattering. Children are relatively clear about good and evil, and they are not very patient to cooperate.
"How is it? Is this director not bad?"
"Tsk, there doesn't seem to be any eye-catching ones. It seems that you are the most beautiful. Natasha, how do you take care of yourself? It's really enviable."
"Bah, glib. How's that half-race little beauty?"
Hmph, don't you have any plans? "
William White rolled his eyes. My buddy is in trouble now. If possible, he should have restrained himself in the first place.Well now, as long as the group of goblins get together, my buddy's heart will start to tremble.
"Come on, this movie is very important, not just what kind of movie it is. Let me tell you, the plans for computer games and console games have already been budgeted."
"Don't put pressure on me. If you say that, I'm going to suffer from insomnia again."
"Hmph, come on, now you are a gold medal producer in Hollywood. With an investment of less than [-] million yuan, if I don't come, you might be herding sheep."
Natasha slandered, just kidding, I want to save money for my daughter now, you think you can mess around.Damn bastard, if you're not so hardworking, it takes so much hard work.
After shooting a set of shots, William White just exchanged pleasantries for a while without giving any instructions.Every director has his own ideas, and he may not like one to dictate.Anyway, the final editing rights were not given, if it really doesn't work, my buddies will do it myself.
Of course, you must let them know how important you are.Once the movie is done, the game will sell well.Once the boss makes money, the next play will be possible.If you screw up the first one, there's nothing left to do.
White Pictures doesn't have any particularly outrageous salary, but if the box office is a hit, the main actors' income is also a lot.
Chapter 345 Forming Cliques Is Not So Easy
William White was actually very surprised. He really couldn't figure out what these little dwarfs were thinking. Could it be that they were naturally rebellious.
Little Paradise and Sega were originally half of Japanese games.You said that it is good for you to accompany the legendary world, why bother to engage in your own stuff.
After several years of tossing, Little Paradise not only failed to expand its market share, but also lost a large number of fans.As for Sega, it's even more troublesome. Working with Bill Gates, I don't know how this guy's brain grows.
Well now, Microsoft doesn't plan to play with them anymore.Tsk tsk, I don't know that group of board members won't be furious.Nima, Bill Gates is the emperor of the United States, isn't it buddy, anyway, you should die quickly and count the ball.
"This kind of thing is actually the same as a couple. If one of them moves on, the relationship will end.
Especially for women, if the wife is unfaithful, so what if she comes back to you, as long as she has the opportunity, she will continue to betray. "
Facing the boss's nonsense, Fat Tom has a dark face.Damn, why don't you be so mean, Sega just wanted to test it out, and maybe it's just those shareholders who have ideas.
"Boss, these guys really don't have the spirit of contract, and it's very likely that they will mess up again."
"Hey, if we worked together, Suomi's game console would have been wiped out long ago, and now it's fine, there is an extra enemy for no reason.
By the way, Tom, do you know why Microsoft gave up Sega? "
"I know, they plan to do it themselves. I heard that they want to buy Sega as a whole."
"Look, this is the fate of the cheap, if I integrate resources, am I more qualified.
Humph, these bastards are damned. "
William White is depressed, and his depression is not limited to the game console.In fact, he also understood Suomi's little tricks, this damn bastard would really cause trouble for himself.
If other companies want to get involved, William White doesn't care, and is even a little happy to see it.If you don't do it well, you deserve to die.
