Chapter 992: Oscar's sorrow
Obviously, this game is still in its infancy, it's very rough, and it's a lot worse than the previous life, but it has almost everything it should have.
Adehan only introduced it once, and Xiao Yunhai was already able to operate it skillfully.
Ten minutes later, Xiao Yunhai killed a big monster and obtained a lot of gold coins and items.
Adehan was dumbfounded when he watched from the side, and after a while, he said, "Mr. Xiao, you are simply a game genius."
Xiao Yunhai said triumphantly: "I told you a long time ago that I am a game master."
With his foundation in his previous life, coupled with his quick eyesight and quick hands, playing a game is not a piece of cake.
Adehan gave a thumbs up and said, "Great. Mr. Xiao, what do you think of this game?"
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said: "Very interesting. I think "World of Warcraft" has the potential to be popular all over the world and should be able to succeed."
Hearing Xiao Yunhai's willingness to invest, Adhan said excitedly: "Great."
Christie, who has not spoken next to him, asked: "Mr. Adhan, how many employees do you have at Storm Games? How long will it take to complete this game? How much do we need to invest and how many shares can we take?"
Since Xiao Yunhai has agreed to invest, as his chief economic adviser, Christy will do the rest.
Adehan scratched the back of his head, and said with some embarrassment: "Our Storm Games Company originally had more than 500 people. In the past two years, because the games we made did not achieve the expected results, we walked away and scattered. Now there is only one left. Less than a hundred people have been dropped. With the current strength, this game can be made within three years. As for the investment, crude estimates require at least 500 million US dollars."
Christie helped the frame of the glasses and said, "Your situation is really terrible. If we promise to invest $500 million, how many shares can you give us?"
Adehan cleared his throat and said, "Forty-nine percent at most."
Maybe he felt that he was a bit too much. After Adehan finished speaking, he didn't even dare to look at Christy's eyes.
Kristi smiled directly and said: "I understand why you can't find investors. A game company that is about to go bankrupt has sold 49% of its shares for 500 million US dollars. Are investment companies being taken advantage of?"
Adehan shook his head and said: "No. Ms. Christie, this condition is indeed a bit harsh, but we are convinced that the income that "World of Warcraft" can bring to you will definitely exceed 500 million US dollars."
Christie was unmoved, and said: "When you were playing the first three games, did you believe that you could succeed, but the result was a mess. Mr. Adham, I can tell you clearly, this Let alone the price, no venture capital firm in the world would agree to it. This is simply too much. In case of failure, we will lose everything."
Adehan said: "Then what do you mean?"
Christie said: "Eighty percent of the 500 million US dollars."
Adehan was shocked and said, "It's impossible. We would rather go bankrupt than give up the hard-working game company."
Christie said: "You owe the bank 160 million U.S. dollars. If you declare bankruptcy, are you going to pay for it?"
When Adehan heard this, his face flushed suddenly, and he couldn't say a word.
His good friend Stahl persuaded: “Adehan, don’t hold on any more, you can’t make it at all. Mr. Xiao is not the kind of profit-seeking boss. Look at the current situation of Magic and Marvel. The annual salary of employees is more than 200,000 US dollars. If you want to grow the storm, you can't do it without the support of Mr. Xiao."
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said: "It seems that your relationship with Storm is very deep. This is a good thing. Don't worry. Although I own most of the shares, you are still responsible for all the big and small things in the company. As long as it is not I don’t even care about major events that endanger the company’s survival. In fact, even if I want to ask, I can’t do it because I don’t understand.”
Upon hearing this, Adehan asked suspiciously: "You really won't deprive us of our management rights?"
Xiao Yunhai laughed and said: "All of my companies, you see that I have managed a few. Like the magic special effects company, I can't go to it a few times a year, and there is no time to watch you. Don't worry, this can be noted in the contract. Ming. Also, a game takes three years to complete, which I can’t bear. If I become a major shareholder of the company, I will inject one billion dollars into the company, so that you can go outside to recruit troops and have the least technicians. To reach a thousand people. As for who you need, it's your business."
Adehan asked, "What about our shares?"
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said: "The other 500 million is considered to be loaned by me to the company. When I make money in the future, the company will return it to me. My goal is to make Storm Games the world's number one game company and let people When you play a game, you must think of our storm. Adehan, do you have this ambition?"
Adehan flushed with excitement from the prospect depicted by Xiao Yunhai, and shouted, "Of course we have."
After speaking, Adehan seemed to feel that something was wrong with the occasion, and his face suddenly became even redder.
When everyone saw him, they couldn't help laughing.
Kristi glanced at Xiao Yunhai appreciatively, and said in his heart: "It's no wonder that he can grow into one of the top 20 millionaires in the world in just three years. Just the charisma of his leadership is no ordinary person. own."
Xiao Yunhai said: "You can discuss with the other two partners. If they agree, we will sign the contract this afternoon, and the billion dollars will be paid immediately."
Adehan nodded and said, "I'll talk to them right away. As long as we don't deprive us of management rights, they should have no problem."
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "That's good. Ms. Christie, you will be responsible for this matter."
Christie said: "No problem. But, as I said beforehand, our investment company only pays out 500 million, and the remaining 500 million is what you want to lend to them and has nothing to do with us."
Xiao Yunhai laughed loudly and said, "Should we start to split the accounts now? All right, I will pay the 500 million by myself."
After sending off Christie and them, Raul came in and said, "Boss, the recording is available. It is indeed the call between George Mikan, Chairman of the Oscar Organizing Committee, and someone else. The other party deprived you of 200 million US dollars. There are four awards for Best Screenplay, Best Foreign Language Film, Best Actor and Best Director. However, there is only his voice in it, and there is no name in the middle. We can't guess who is on the phone?"
Xiao Yunhai nodded, put the recording on the computer and listened to it. As expected, it was all Mikan's transactions with the other party.
Xiao Yunhai asked a little puzzled: "How did they do it?"
Raul said: "Boss, you may not be aware of the film selection process. Let's put it this way, although the major Oscar awards are selected by more than 200 experts, it can be tricky when counting the votes. Because After the statistics are completed, the votes will be put into the shredder and no one knows who voted. As long as you prepare some votes in advance and replace your votes, there is no problem."
Xiao Yunhai suddenly realized: "It's no wonder Mikan said that he has to clear a lot of levels. It seems that the tellers are also very important. Haha, they are really ruthless enough for an award of 50 million dollars. The recording is just fine. As for the person on the other end of the phone, you don’t have to worry about it. Except for Paramount, I can’t think of anyone else. Raul, you go and secretly post this recording on the Internet. Don’t let anyone find out that we did it. Make trouble, understand?"
Raul said, "I understand, boss."
In less than half an hour, Raul sent someone to upload the recording, and in just ten minutes, the number of clicks exceeded 10,000.
"We said yes. For an award of 50 million, Xiao Yi won four awards for Best Screenplay, Best Foreign Language Film, Best Actor, and Best Director, which add up to 200 million US dollars."
"Do you want to admit it? Hehe, I, George Mikan, has been the chairman of the Oscar for so many years. It's not easy to mess with."
"Very good. You just need to bring the check for 200 million dollars. As for how we divide it, that's our business."
In the recording, George Mikan's voice is very clear. Anyone who hears this recording has a face of indignation. This is simply a naked crime.
At noon that day, an unprecedented earthquake occurred in the United States. The Oscar, regarded as a symbol of movies by fans all over the world, no longer had its former glory. The golden trophy was shrouded in a layer of black dirt, and the whole Hollywood was shocked. 'S speechless.
"How could this be? Two hundred million dollars, four awards, God, this is not true."
"Is the Oscar actually reduced to this point now? Just like this, Xiao's four trophies were taken away for 200 million dollars."
"Xiao is right, Oscar is too unfair."
"Damn George Mikan, let us misunderstand Xiao."
"It's no wonder that George Mikan didn't dare to make any guarantees during the interview. It turned out that the biggest problem was himself."
"George Mikan should be shot. It's horrible. The Oscars is a place to hide dirt. I can't believe my ears."
Not only did movie fans make such a voice, but even the members of the Oscar jury looked incredible.
The famous French filmmaker Berry Caberco said in an interview: "I really can't believe it, the church in my mind is like this. When choosing the best director, I did choose Xiao~www.mtlnovel. com~ Although Xiao did not win the trophy in the end, it made me feel a little regretful, but he attacked Oscar in front of the media, which is unacceptable to me. For this reason, I was very disappointed in him. Unexpectedly, what he said It turned out to be all true. George Mikan **** it, because he defiled the movie and defiled the Oscar. From today on, I am afraid that Oscar will never be perfect in people's hearts."
The actor David Harnett wrote on his homepage: "I listened to the ugly recording at noon today, and I didn't even eat any food. What is an Oscar? It is not just a trophy, it is The dream of all filmmakers in the world. Now that Oscar is dead, the dream is also shattered."
British director Ivan said: "This is not a scandal. The word scandal is far from describing this recording. It is really difficult for me to comment on this, because it made me feel extremely sad and desperate. I just want to say one thing now, George Duncan, you should go to hell, that's the Infernal Affairs Xiao said."
Countless filmmakers are angry and want to kill George Duncan.
