Chapter 191: Invitation

Nine a.m., New York International Airport.

Jack?? Dorsey walked out of the passenger aisle with his suitcase in his hand and saw Tom with a smile on his face.

Dorsey hugged Tom warmly and asked casually, "What about the king?"

"Huh. The corners of Tom's mouth curled slightly, "Wang is training for tomorrow's Twitter roadshow." ”

Dorsey laughed when he thought of the brainwashing propaganda videos that had been shown on television in recent days.

"Actually, Wang is quite photogenic. ”

Tom took the salute and walked and talked to Dorsey.

"Of course. According to Hbo's feedback, many viewers insisted on watching the promotional video after watching "Prison Break Special Forces". ”

"You must know that the audience classification of "Prison Break" is very different from "Prison Break". ”

"The viewers of this show are already dominated by men. ”

Tom opened the car door and sat in the back seat with Dorsey.

After gesturing to the driver to drive, he continued: "Can you imagine a Terminator fan going to watch a promotional video of a man in a suit and leather shoes?"

Moreover, Goldman Sachs and Da Mo decided that the full version of the promotional film will be broadcast on the financial and cultural channels of the three major wireless television networks. ”

"Haha, as you can imagine," Tom laughed, "Wang, I'm about to become a female icon in the United States." ”

Dorsey shook his head and added with a serious face, "You can't discriminate against others because of their sexual orientation." ”

"You know, a lot of gay is also very literary and artistic. ”

Tom was stunned for a moment, then laughed.

"I wish in those people's dreams the king was the masculine one. ”

At the same time, the famous writer Stephen?? Kim is sitting on the couch, unpacking letters and watching TV.

The reason why he didn't write today is because another short TV series based on his work is going to be broadcast on NBC.

"I hope that the adaptation is the same as "Carrie the Witch", which completely deviates from the main purpose of the work. "Stephen?? Kim whispered to himself.

Although the producer invited him as a consultant, he has a certain say in the shooting.

But because of the existence of the final editing right, even the most famous writer in the United States, he is completely uncertain about what his work will be adapted into until it is broadcast.

"Twitter Roadshow, Wang?" Stephen?? Kim looked at the letter and shook his head, "How can a young writer with great prospects be completely lost on the path of a businessman?" ”

At this time, the voice on the TV caught his attention.

"I'm Wang Yan, I use Twitter to speak for myself..."

"Stephen, your call. His wife, walking briskly into the living room, "is a man named George??" Martin's people, called. ”

Stephen?? Kim took the phone suspiciously, and heard a thick male voice.

"Mr. Stephen, have you received an invitation from the king?"

"Got it, but I'm not going. He expressed his opinion succinctly.

"Mr. Stephen, 'Carrie the Witch' and 'Forrest Gump' should be a wake-up call for us writers. ”

"Hollywood only wants to take advantage of our fame, but it doesn't want to respect our opinions. "George?? Martin said solemnly.

"I think the king must have seen this situation. ”

"That's why Twitter exists. ”

"According to Neil?? Gaiman said that using this Twitter can effectively maintain communication with readers. ”

"In this way, we at least have our own voice. ”

Twitter, Carrie the Witch, Forrest Gump?

Stephen?? Kim hung up the phone and thought about it.

For a top writer like him, money is no longer an important criterion for licensing.

If the film and television drama adapted from the work completely deviates from the main idea, then the million-dollar licensing fee is more like a humiliation.

Stephen?? After a few minutes of deep groaning, Kim contacted his agent.

"Book me a plane ticket to New York, I need to communicate with Wang Yan. ”

......

At EA headquarters, the vice president who had dealt with Wang gradually was listening to the reports of his subordinates.

"The closed beta of Arcane Constellation II has been well received, and in half a month, we will be officially on sale. ”

"So, what about our competitors?" the vice president took a sip of his coffee.

"Because of the design of the plot, there was a big problem. The subordinate laughed, "So, Diablo II has officially announced the ticket jump." ”

"Huh. The corners of the vice president's mouth couldn't help but curle, "This is the benefit of adapting a complete work into a game." ”

"Sir, by fax. His secretary walked briskly into the office.

"That Asian-American best-selling author is going to do a roadshow for the launch. ”

"Are you going public?" whispered the vice president in his mind.

But after taking the fax and looking at it, he asked in surprise, "What's Twitter?"

"It is said to be a communication tool on the Internet. The secretary replied, "Do you accept the invitation to go to New York?"

The vice president thought for a moment, but nodded.

"There's a lot of work on that site that is perfect for adapting into games. ”

"Even if EA isn't interested in this twitter, it's still necessary to have a good relationship with the other party. ”

"Okay. The secretary nodded, "Then I'll book a ticket for you." ”

He made a similar decision, as well as Richardson of Dark Horse Comics.

Of course, those who have in-depth cooperation with Twitter's main holdings, HBO, Netflix, Apple Computer, etc., will naturally participate in the roadshow in New York with more face.

......

And unlike the companies on the two sides of the appeal, the famous American investor Warren ?? Warren Buffett was more invited by Wall Street giants Goldman Sachs and Da Mo.

"Twitter?" he said, holding the information his subordinates had gathered, his brow furrowed slightly.

Although the rise of Internet companies has become a recognized future trend on Wall Street.

But Warren?? Warren Buffett, on the other hand, is not very interested in this.

"A high-valuation company without a stable means of profitability is a capital game. Warren Buffett sighed in his heart, "It's like the hanging gardens of ancient Babylon, beautiful but very fragile." ”

After a few moments, he placed the papers on his desk.

"However, there are many ways to make a profit. ”

"Comics, film and television dramas, games, paid reading... Is this about being an entertainment content provider?"

"Mr. Buffett, are you going to attend?" his assistant confirmed in a whisper.

Warren Buffett took a sip of his coffee, "Well, some time ago, the Jewish consortium and the non-Jewish consortium had a very unpleasant quarrel, so I'd better go to Wall Street." ”

"By the way, let's get to know this young writer named Wang Jian. ”
