v2 Chapter 286: Galaxy movie year

Immersion company (Emmersion) was established less than a year ago, just when it needed to invest. Henry sent someone to tell them to buy shares and brought in a lot of cooperation orders after the shares. This makes Immersion feel happy!

Americans are different from the Chinese in that they are not particularly fancy company's absolute controlling rights, because absolute controlling rights are almost rare in the United States. There are many investment institutions in the United States. If a company wants to develop, financing is indispensable in the process. The founder can finally get 10% of it. Of course, except Henry.

Henry invested US$5 million in Immersion and ultimately held 70% of the shares.

After acquiring Immersion, Henry first asked Immersion to cooperate with Atari to develop the vibration package function! Since then, there are many orders, such as mobile phone button vibration function, ATM touch vibration function and so on! Now ATMs are already using resistive screens, and resistive screens can function through pressure sensing. Apple's Apple Newton handheld computer is also the use of resistive screens, which use a stylus instead of button output!

The opposite of the resistive screen is the capacitive screen, which is sensed by the body's own current, which is the touch screen commonly used in smart phones in the future. However, the technical requirements of capacitive screens are much higher than those of resistive screens, and they cannot be developed yet!

Henry then told Rich Howard what a trigger button is. The trigger button is designed to follow ergonomics. An L button is added to the back of the joystick. As long as the index finger is bent naturally, it will be hooked, reducing input errors.

After explaining these, Henry is ready to make a "Pokemon" cartoon.

The style of "Pokemon" is Japanese style, and the animation is best produced by a Japanese animation production company! Henry thought about it for a moment, and then planned to go directly to Toho Co., Ltd. to produce the "Pokemon" cartoon. Because in the previous life, the animation of "Pokemon" was produced by this company.

Toho Co., Ltd., referred to as Toho, is one of the five largest film companies in Japan. In Henry's memory, the company was not very strong in film and television. The most famous is the Godzilla series produced by the company. However, Toho Co., Ltd. is too strong in the field of cartoon production. It has produced the Doraemon series, the Naruto series, and the Crayon Shin-chan series. Detective Conan series, Pokémon series, Grim Reaper series, Inuyasha Theater Edition series and so on are very classic cartoons!

Henry thought, it's time for Galaxy Films to get out of the United States.

Henry then ordered the Galaxy Film Company to annex Toho Co., Ltd. Once Toho Co., Ltd. is acquired, the strength of Galaxy Films in the field of animation will increase by leaps and bounds!

Although Toho Co., Ltd. is known as one of the top five film companies in Japan, it is nothing compared to the giant Hollywood film companies. Galaxy Studios can be called a Hollywood giant anyway! In 1993, Galaxy Films successively released more than 60 movies, especially the films produced by Galaxy Film Company itself created a box office miracle. This year, Hollywood belongs to Galaxy Film Company, and the top four movies in the global grossing box office are Galaxy. The work of the film company! Therefore, 1993 was also called the "Galaxy Film Year" by many fans! Devil Brokerage Company

This year. Galaxy Film Investment has produced four films, "Forrest Gump", "Xiao Shengke's Redemption", "Mission Impossible" and "Independence Day". Together with the "Toy Story" of its subsidiary Pixar, there are a total of 5 self-made films belonging to Galaxy Films.

The highest grossing box office was "Independence Day," with a global box office of more than 1.15 billion U.S. dollars. The shocking special effects of the movie shocked everyone, especially when the US White House was destroyed by an alien spacecraft. It was a bunker. At that moment, many people in the cinema couldn't help screaming!

The second at the box office was "Forrest Gump", with a global box office of more than 900 million US dollars. The movie is starring Tom Hanks, Robin White and others. It is an inspirational story about Forester Gan, a small town boy who is born with mental retardation, who is constantly striving to make himself stronger, and finally gets the blessing of heaven and creates miracles in many fields. After the movie was released, word of mouth was bursting. Touched countless people!

The third place at the box office is "Toy Story", with a global box office of 620 million US dollars.

The fourth largest at the box office is "Mission Impossible", with a global box office of $470 million.

The box office of "Xiao Shengke's Redemption" can only be regarded as mediocre, but it is unprecedentedly popular in the video tape market, and its reputation is extremely high. It is regarded as a classic by countless people!

In addition. This year, Henry's personal investment and Spielberg's "Schindler's List" was released with the help of Galaxy Film Company. The film's screen was astonishing, and audiences all over the world couldn't help being moved! The film reproduces the real historical event that German entrepreneur Oscar Schindler and his wife Emily Schindler went bankrupt during World War II and protected more than 1,200 Jews from being killed by fascists. In the film, Schindler was not a hero at the beginning, but in the end he became a hero. The film did not provide an answer, but directly presented his behavior and psychological reaction to the audience, allowing the audience to experience and analyze it by themselves.

Spielberg used a small symbolic effect as a foil, that is, the little girl in red. Every time Schindler looked at her, he strengthened his conviction. She symbolizes innocent and fragile life, and also symbolizes the courage and strength to overcome evil, and is the only color in the film.

After the film was released, US President Clinton was very impressed after watching the film. At a press conference, he couldn't help but screamed: "I urge you to watch this film."

"Schindler's List" has a powerful shock and a deep and painful artistic charm that has deeply attracted countless people. Although the movie is so heavy, the box office has been rising steadily. The US box office is as high as 120 million U.S. dollars, overseas box office is as high as 280 million U.S. dollars, and the total box office is as high as 400 million U.S. dollars. As a small-themed art film, the global box office is so high, it can not help but shocking!

When the film was released in Germany, the President of Germany personally attended the premiere of the film! ! ! Rebirth of a celebrity

At the end of the movie, there is actually an Easter egg. The Easter egg is a micro-film of less than 10 minutes. The name of the movie is "Visa of Life". The pressure of the Jews to issue visas to China, and this visa has almost become a'life visa' to save the Jews...

As soon as the Easter egg came out, the Chinese side immediately contacted Galaxy Film Company to request the introduction of the film!

This is all about giving the Chinese a face!

As an investor in the film, Henry not only received the friendship of the Jews, but also the favor of the Chinese government.

This year, Galaxy Film Company has a lot of beautiful scenery, and there is no difference in the moment.

The Oscars ceremony to be held next year will be the most interesting one. Whether it is "Forrest Gump", "Schindler's List", or "Shoshenko's Redemption" all have the qualifications to compete for the best film, which movie can win the award, it is exciting!

For Galaxy Films, the awards will belong to themselves anyway, it doesn't matter.

In terms of profitability, with the box office and peripheral revenue, Galaxy Films makes a lot of money. Its name as a Hollywood movie giant is well deserved! ! !

At present, the cash flow of Galaxy Film is more than 5 billion US dollars. It is not difficult to merge Toho Co., Ltd.!

Under Henry's order, Galaxy Films initiated a purchase request to Toho Co., Ltd.: "Galaxy Films spent 2.5 billion US dollars to acquire Toho Co., Ltd.!"

Facing the acquisition of Hollywood movie giants ~lightnovelpub.net~ Toho Co., Ltd., many people feel panic. It is very likely that Toho Co., Ltd. will become a subsidiary of Galaxy Films!

Henry no longer cares about the details of the acquisition. If the goodwill acquisition cannot be completed, then hostile acquisition, force acquisition in the stock market or purchase shares from some major shareholders at high prices! ! !

Toho Co., Ltd. convened a board of directors to discuss, and finally decided to negotiate with Galaxy Film Company.

The two parties quickly entered the formal negotiation process.

Soon it ended in 1993 and started in 1994. And this new year will be extremely exciting!
