Chapter 129: Proposal for Cooperation
The movie tells the story of Hook, the younger brother of the fraud group, and his friend Condorf, who use the scam to avenge the boss Rusa.
Watching a movie at this premiere feels a little different and a little more comfortable.
It may be that the actors, directors, and screenwriters are also sitting in the theater at the moment, and the Oscars were held in this theater.
Han Chudong had not been exposed to these before, so he was in a happy mood.
Of course, it may also be due to the fact that there is a beautiful girl sitting next to her.
The year 1974 is approaching.
Mobile phones have been invented, the technology is not yet too mature, and a group of fixed-line operators still have different opinions, some people think that they don't need this thing at all, and it is convenient to communicate through fixed landlines.
Every time a new thing is born, it takes time to digest and absorb it before it can be popularized on a large scale, and Motorola's technology is so advanced that some telecom operators want to strangle it in the cradle, so as not to affect their own business.
There are no products on the market, and mobile phones naturally do not appear in the theater, except for the occasional cough, it is relatively quiet.
Even when you speak, keep your voice low to avoid being despised by others.
A quarter passes.
Han Chudong gradually adapted to the times in which he lived, ordering a large number of periodicals, magazines and newspapers like ordinary people, and learning about the information happening around the world through them.
The "uncrowned kings" of the United States control the channels of information transmission, and smart people need to know how to guess the facts themselves between the lines, which has been artificially processed, and many news can not be called fair and appreciable, especially when it comes to foreign reports, arrogance and arrogance are fully revealed.
I also read books at home and occasionally go to the bookstore to pass the free time.
It is worth affirming that in this era without smartphones, there is indeed more contact between people, and sometimes a postcard sent from a distance takes a long time to reach someone, and distance produces beauty.
Now the first thing I do when I wake up in the morning is not to reach for my phone, I have nothing to do at night, and I go to bed early......
"So what do you do? My name is Thomas, and I run a small animation company in Burbank, have you noticed that the director of this film is quite good, and the plot is quite exciting? ”
Kiko Mochizuki sat on Han Chudong's right hand, and the slightly chubby white man with a big beard on the left looked a bit like Hagrid from "Harry Potter", with a bloated body that pressed to the point that the seat creaked.
"Hello, Mason Han, I run a toy company, selling magic balls and Rubik's cubes, and I also run a home appliance mall, called Storm Electric. Han Chudong said in a low voice, reached out to shake hands with the other party, took out his wallet, took out a business card, handed it over, pointed to the screen and continued: "I like this movie very much. ”
"Well, that kind of funny yo-yo is a product of your company? To tell you the truth, this is the Christmas present I bought for my son tonight, it's really a coincidence!"
The man named Thomas was afraid that Han Chudong would not believe it, so he took out the box and showed it to him.
The Magic Ball Kit in the Christmas gift box, which contains four different models in one box, including a plastic version and an aluminum alloy version, retails for $26 and 99 cents, and according to the feedback from agents, sales are booming.
After Han Chudong saw it, he said happily: "Then you may need an oversized sock tonight, otherwise you won't be able to fit it." ”
Tonight is the Christmas Eve that the children are most looking forward to, and they believe that there will be a fat old man with a white beard, who will quietly send gifts while he is asleep.
Thinking of something, Han Chudong added sideways again: "Thomas, let's talk after the movie is over, maybe we can cooperate on some business matters." ”
"What kind of business?"
"Cartoons, good for both of us, more on that later......"
——————————
The movie is more than two hours long, the plot is relatively tight, and time seems to pass quickly.
When the lights came on, the crew members came to the stage, and the applause lasted for a long time, Han Chudong didn't know why they kept applauding, and guessed that it might be etiquette or something, so he didn't stop.
Thomas, who was sitting on his left side, finally spoke up until now, and said in a depressed tone: "Mason, you have made me miserable, I was thinking about what kind of cooperation it was in the second half, I didn't see it at all, can you tell me now?"
"Haha! Just wanted to ask if you're interested in my story idea, I can invest money to customize a cartoon for the company's next product, or a comic, that's definitely a good story. "Han Chudong held back for too long, and at this time he wanted to immediately rush to the bathroom to put water.
“...... My company mainly does outsourcing services, which means helping other companies, such as Disney and MGM, to produce animated films, but if it's a really good idea, maybe I'll consider working together. ”
Thomas was a little embarrassed.
The reason is that Han Chudong runs other businesses, and it seems that he has little to do with the animation industry, so he seems a little unprofessional.
And when working with laymen, the results are often worse, even if you are half of the film and television industry, how can you not know how much negative impact the investor has on a work.
But now that business is difficult to do, profits are seriously shrinking compared to the past, and I didn't say anything to death.
Thomas continued: "You're lucky to get out and smoke a cigar later, I just had two Q bars in my pocket, and I grabbed them from a friend!"
Since the Missile Crisis, the two sides have cut off contact, and it is difficult to buy Qba cigars on the market.
Han Chudong couldn't tell whether this thing was good or bad, just like whiskey and red wine, it felt the same, and followed the other party's words and said: "This is really a good thing, how long will the director say it? Why don't we go out first." ”
......
Kiko Mochizuki is chatting with Thomas's wife and listening to her complain about how much she has affected her life after getting married and having children.
One doesn't talk much, the other mouth is like a machine gun, and it can't stop at all.
Han Chudong's side, the patent of the four-wheel drive toy racing car has been applied, the utility patent, the appearance patent have been submitted, at this moment took out a small book to draw, and told: "My company's next toy is almost like this, the body, the motor, the wheel, the children can assemble it by themselves, with two No. 5 batteries to drive, the speed is relatively fast." ”
"Well, I can probably figure it out, you continue. Thomas replied.
"My idea was to set up a background, like holding a competition in a certain city. The competitors are working on a wide variety of racing cars through laboratory experts, and the competition is fierce because the young players are not very old.
It's similar to the younger version of Formula 1, but it's a bit more story-telling, with the protagonist progressing through setbacks and eventually winning the Grand Pride, and the global championship after global race can form a complete story. ”
After he said this, Thomas's eyes lit up, and he said decisively: "It seems to be very good, and you can also collect advertising fees from car dealers such as Ford and General Motors!"
Han Chudong originally wanted to say that he could just make up some, but considering how rich those car dealers were, he suddenly felt that selling advertisements seemed to be good......
