American Fortune Life
Chapter 157: Ready to pit people
Andy hung up the phone, grinning at Oston next to him, exposing a big white tooth, shrugging and said: "Look, I said, I'm the most direct way! Your exchange is pulling, compromise It's useless at all ... "
Auston looked at his son with a black line. He got up off the sofa angrily, picked up his briefcase, and walked toward the door, saying, "It's all messed up with you, it's a mess! This one! This is the end of the matter, and the dust will soon be settled. I don't need your help in my campaign. I'm afraid you'll cause me trouble again ... "
"Click ... pop!"
Andy looked at his father's disappearing figure, turned his head to Li Wanqing, and spread his hands innocently, saying, "How do I feel, the responsibility for this matter has become the same as my responsibility!"
Li Wanqing watched her son funny, saw Andy turned to his bedroom, and suddenly remembered the smell of the perfume when his son came back two days ago, and asked tentatively: "Ivana is still in San Francisco? When will you come back together? Meet for a meal. "
Andy looked back at her mother strangely, and said a little entangledly, "I and Ivana have only been in contact for a few months. Is it too early to meet now? Besides, I haven't asked her if she wants to, let me say ! "
Li Wanqing reluctantly looked at her son who ran back to the bedroom after speaking, and had a headache. This son was really uneasy. She talked about Andy's previous chaotic private life several times, but An Di still, I do n’t care much about it, I thought that I would worry about it after I confirmed the relationship with Ivana, but it still does n’t seem to be reliable, but it ’s a son, if it ’s a daughter, it ’s really mad. .
Andy who returned to the bedroom didn't bother with his mother's proposal. He is only 21 years old now and has great youth to splurge. He would not marry into marriage so early and be surrounded by a woman, even if the woman is Ivana.
He took out his personal mobile phone and started making phone calls. Now he ca n’t go out and can only use his mobile phone to manage the affairs of several companies. Even if each company has an excellent manager, as a big boss, he must keep an understanding of company affairs. .
The first is the game company, and what he is most concerned about now is the sales of "Minecraft". This game is a cash cow and a real cash cow. To be honest, just making this game is enough to make him I've been chic in my life, and the potential is huge.
The gaming company's Blair also feels that the big boss's attention to this game is not ordinary, and the daily routine report will also tell the young boss about the sales volume and amount of feedback.
"Publicity still needs to be expanded. Send more game videos to YouTube. You can also make several game tutorial videos and upload them. After all, our game is still difficult. Let young people think this game is a trend. It will be outdated to play, let the planning department come up with a plan, how to hype is their thing, as long as the results, the advertising funds can be appropriately increased. Although it can sell an average of one million dollars every day, this situation can not be sustained How long it takes to increase publicity and get more people to pay attention to this game ... "
Blair has a deep impression on his boss, that is, he cares very much about publicity and sales, otherwise he will not be a person with rich sales experience as a ceo. As long as he can increase influence and increase sales, his boss But don't care how unlimited the propaganda means is.
Andy understands the progress of the next two games. The development of "Zombies" is continuously accelerating. There is no need for Andy and Blair to urge. Holden is now like the lunatics, leading the group members to work overtime. The other members did not seem to complain.
Because "Minecraft" has been successful, and each game sold will have a part of the profits belong to the development team. Although this part accounts for a small proportion, but the game is not popular now, selling millions of dollars a day Ah, no jealousy, no envy, no anxiety are fake. Your boss is not a cowardly person. The original ideas and everything belong to the boss himself. It is also a generous good boss who can share some of the profits for them. .
Finish it earlier, go public earlier, and make money earlier. This is what Holden said in the development team every day, and has become the demon of the entire "Zombie" development members.
As for "Under the Legend", due to some technical reasons, the progress is slow, but Andy has already said that this game is difficult to produce. Don't worry, after all, there is a certain AI technology in it, there is no difficulty. ghost.
After learning about the game company, I originally wanted to call Bud, an investment company, but when I saw a working mobile phone that was turned off for two days, Andy touched his chin and called Carl in Los Angeles.
Sure enough, when the call was connected, the dead fat man complained. Sometimes Andy really wanted to fire him, but there was really no more appropriate help than Carr. After all, some things really needed such a person to help himself. Dealing with it, Carl is definitely doing his best to complete the things he explained. Now many film companies that have dealt with Carl hate it, but there is no way, after all, he holds a lot of excellent IP, especially when several film companies went to the screenwriters' union to check the script, and several of Andy's script outlines that had been archived for a long time, mocking the bird copyright company now has a place in Hollywood.
"Well, no one will bother you any more after tomorrow. Did anyone at the top ever find you?" Andy interrupted Carl's complaint and asked what matters most.
"Oh, Rob Freman came here in person, and accused me when he met, saying that we violated the rules of the industry, but he was very curious about the movie adaptation rights we bought for Twilight, and he wanted to Seeing if he could work with us to make a movie, he almost laughed at me. By the way, he wanted to see you, said that he couldn't get through to the phone, and wanted to talk to you about cooperation. "
Andy smiled slightly and leaned comfortably on the computer chair and said, "Yes, you can tell him, I'll wait for him in New York to come here. Both the" Twilight "and" Hunger "series can talk, as long as His conditions have moved me enough, hehe. "
"Ha! If he knew your idea of playing a stake in Peak Entertainment, I don't think he would run to New York to get angry."
"No.no, on the contrary, he will be very happy, look at the three shareholders, huh, one is engaged in real estate, one is engaged in finance, and the other is to make money by reselling movies, but for running a film company, I do n’t know how to make movies. Otherwise, I wo n’t invite Robert Freeman to be the CEO. The layman ’s leadership will naturally have a lot of constraints. My participation just balances the balance between the directors. Will help me to speak well, not to mention these excellent IPs in my hands, which side do you say he will stand on? After all, he is just a professional manager. "
Andy's words are absolutely justified. In the end, Peak Entertainment owed a large amount of foreign debt due to various blind large-production investment. It was eventually annexed by Lions Gate Pictures. The high-quality film library and excellent IP in Peak's hands were made for Lions Gate Pictures. A wedding dress.
The price of the annexation is not even comparable to the box office profit of Twilight. This has to be said as a satire. Of course, this has nothing to do with the director's random intervention. Making movies is not about stocks. The greater the investment, the more profitable it is. many.
What Andy wants now is to become a shareholder of Summit Entertainment smoothly, support Robert Freeman in the company's operation, and let Summit develop slowly. After the subprime crisis comes, squeeze out two shareholders to complete Summit Entertainment. As for the original founder, Andy had no choice but to hesitate. Who cares, there are more business cases of this kind of dove occupying the nest, is the founder great? Do not make jokes.
When Andy thinks about it, he also warns himself that in the future business development, he will definitely introduce some foreign capital, and he will be locked up for this foreign capital, and his defense will also be played by others, even if it is possible in the future. The listing of Google really uses the Google model. Although Nima will make investors jump, but its power will not fall by the way.
