American Fortune Life
Chapter 13: Pirates of Dream Space and Talent Show
"The moving parables written by the brilliant imagination talk about the lost pain and the pain of adolescence." ---- The Los Angeles Times
"Dark Fairy Tales is written in a clear and engaging way. It is a charming, magical, well-thought-out book." ---- "USA Today"
Andy looked a little flattered at the book reviews of major newspapers. He knew that Dark Fairy Tales was not as good as some newspapers boasted. The power of Xuele Publishing House was huge, and this was the biggest gain after signing with them. Right.
The book review of USA Today is very pertinent, written in a clear and engaging way. This is indeed his current writing, the description of the movie scene, the picture is full. Andy put the papers one by one on the table, Continue to eat his Chinese and Western breakfast.
After breakfast, after a little rest, he began to exercise in the fitness room. Under the guidance of a fitness coach for a month, his fitness training has become a habit.
The fitness instructor discovered through one month's understanding that Andy's physical fitness is not as weak as it appears on the surface. Instead, with the exercise, he found that his strength is increasing rapidly, but Andy does not know how to use this power, just blindly The use of equipment to consume, so the coach suggested Andy to learn boxing and yoga to better control the physical strength.
Looking at the muscles on his body becoming more and more obvious, Andy was a little distressed. He didn't want to be that kind of muscular man.
As for Huaxia Kungfu, Andy has nothing to think about. There is no basis for cultivation since childhood. The brute force alone is just a flower in the moon mirror in the water. In case of splitting again and again, it is the waste of physical training He died unjustly.
Boxing and yoga can both control the use of strength and exercise flexibility, and coaches are easy to find, but it is really a haystack to find a master master of magic. As for those martial arts halls, Andy can only hehe.
An hour of exercise made Andy sweat all over. He wiped the sweat from his face and neck with a towel. He took off his shoes and socks while sitting on a lounge chair. He went into the bathroom with his bare feet. Of sports vest and shorts, open the water valve and start to shower.
Thinking of the new book to be written, he couldn't help but hesitate a little bit, "Three Shadows", "National Treasure" and "Dream of Dreams" are really difficult to choose.
It seems that the spy war theme and the treasure hunt theme cannot be published at the moment. After all, he still has the aura of a young writer. Without any experience and accumulation, how can it be convincing.
However, the story of "Dream of Dreams" can be written. As for the original author Nolan, Andy didn't care. The screenplay or something is beyond his consideration. The screenwriter of a newcomer in Hollywood only writes about 50,000 to 80,000 dollars. The screenwriter whose annual salary is 600,000 is the treatment of a famous screenwriter. Compared with the income of a famous writer It's a difference between heaven and earth.
Put on comfortable casual clothes, come to the study, sit in front of the computer and start to look back.
The story of "Dream of Space" is about Dom Cobb, an experienced thief. He is the most powerful in this industry, because he can sneak into the most spiritually vulnerable dreams and steal the subconscious. Valuable secret. Cobb's rare skill made him the most coveted target of dangerous corporate espionage, but it also made him an international fugitive and lost his love. Cobb now has a chance to make atonement,
As long as the last task is completed, his life will return to its original appearance. Unlike in the past, Cobb and his team's task this time was not to steal ideas, but to implant them. If they succeed, this is a perfect crime. However, even if detailed and professional arrangements are made in advance, it is impossible to predict that dangerous enemies will already know their actions well, and only Cobb can predict the enemy's whereabouts.
Andy squeezed his fingers gently and started typing, and the knocking sound of the door rang. Andy, who was busy on the keyboard, didn't raise his head and said "Please come in", and then continued cracking to finish the paragraph.
"Sir, your coffee." Liu Yan put the coffee on the desk.
"Thank you," Andy said, raising his head with a mild smile. His fingers didn't stop typing, and dual-use seemed not difficult for him now.
Watching Liu Yan leave the study, Andy looked at the written part. The text became more and more sophisticated and appropriate, and the description was very picture-like. It seems that his fake writer is still qualified. Andy shrugged and drank strong coffee, but this kind of dead house life was a bit bitter, and he sighed softly.
Now that everything is planned, it will be done unswervingly. The publication of this book will inevitably attract the attention of major Hollywood studios and directors. This is also a stepping stone to becoming famous in this Hollywood film factory and must be taken seriously.
"My life has just begun."
Two days later, the negotiations between Nielsen and NBC also entered the final stage. Since NBC and CBS learned that the talent of the talent show had sold the British copyright for 20 million pounds, they contacted Nielsen again to negotiate. It's just that due to the price, CBS finally withdrew from the auction. They thought that it was too risky to spend tens of millions of dollars to buy a program idea.
However, NBC is even more determined to buy the copyrights. They are very jealous of the ratings of American idols in FOX's spring season. Since British independent television stations are willing to spend a large amount of money to buy copyrights, they will not be embarrassed. For the NBC who is willing to spend 12 billion US dollars to purchase the North American broadcasting rights of the Olympic Games, the tens of millions are nothing.
Apple's stock has begun to rebound, and Andy does not want to continue dragging on. In this way, both sides have made concessions on the premise that both parties intend to cooperate. NBC spent $ 40 million plus 5% of advertising revenue to get North America. Copyright (Canada, United States and Mexico).
At the request of Andy, NBC agreed that it would only report mocking bird copyright companies in the publicity and downplay the status of Andy's show founder.
As soon as the money arrived, Andy met with his financial management team, and still had the same requirements, and all bought Apple's stock.
David is a little speechless about his boss's paranoia. He has been advised more than once that he can't put all the eggs in a basket. There are many potential stocks that can be operated. However, Andy doesn't comment on this. Did not adopt, but still expressed appreciation and praise for his professionalism.
For Jobs, and for smartphones, future generations Andy knew what kind of change they would bring to the world.
After the British independent television station got the copyright of the talent show, it began to operate fully. Because of the detailed program flow and planning written by Andy, after two weeks of preparation, after completely copying Andy's suggestions for the judges, Simon Cowell, PiersMorgan, and Amanda Holden became the judges of the British talent show.
Because only the semi-finals are broadcast live, at present the advertisements for the talent show have been fully rolled out in the UK, and the momentum is huge. The champion won not only a false name, but also a prize of 100,000 pounds and the opportunity to perform for the British royal family.
The selection of the program is not limited to age, region, race, etc. During the sea election, no matter the program group came to that city, it will trigger a wave of registrations. The program has already ignited the enthusiasm and curiosity of the British people.
Everyone wants to be a star, take away bonuses, all kinds of strange and geeky talents, plus the relentless judgement of the three judges and the dazzling X-shaped red light, no doubt people are full of expectations for this show.
The British talent show is in full swing and has become the target of British newspapers. The show fire is only a matter of time. This will undoubtedly give the US NBC a lot of peace of mind, and at the same time, it will increase publicity in the United States.
"Only you can't think of it, nothing you can't see, Americans, this summer vacation, I want you to look good!"
This advert appeared on almost all NBC TV stations. They even pushed the bonus up to $ 1 million. The phone number for enquiries about registration every day was almost exploded. The hotness made the rival FOX TV station deeply worried. .
The summer season has just begun. The American Talent Show is under the auspices of Regis Filbin. The judges of the show are composed of David Hasselhoff (Piller Ranger), Pierce Morgan and Brandy Norwood.
A wild-sounding singer, a middle-aged man over the age of 50 who still needs to show his muscular muscles, a folk acrobatic performer, and a mediocre dancer ... they are accompanied by the performance of strange players, the judges also More and more sarcastic.
The broadcast of the first episode created a peak in ratings and set off a wave in the United States. NBC's executives watched soaring ratings and sponsors waving cheques almost couldn't agree.
Andy watched the first episode at home and learned the ratings figures at the end of the show, with a proud smile on his face.
With a successful example, the copyright in his hand is easy to sell. As for the plagiarism problem in some countries, he can only hehe. It is a common phenomenon in the Chinese cottage, and he is used to it. Besides, he is also a plagiarism.
It is just that there are still two programs in his hands that have not been sold for sale. When the talent show has set off a wave in the world, it will be thrown away. By then, it will make a lot of money.
