Chapter 915: Two Plans
Inside the Future World Manor, Ronan opened the package that Connie had just delivered, and several beautifully packaged cartons appeared in front of him.
The apple on top that has been bitten is particularly eye-catching.
Ronan took out a cardboard box and quickly opened it, revealing a small smartphone.
It seems,The screen is about 3.5 inches,Ronan took it out and looked at it,The phone is thicker,The weight is a little overwhelming,The back shell is silver-gray,But to the last small part it turned blackγ
This is the prototype that Steve Jobs sent to me.
Ronan turned on the machine and tried it, and then asked Nikia, the housekeeper next to him, "Is it beautiful?"
"Very good. What did Nikia say: "It's a smartphone, right? It's smaller than a typical smartphone." β
Ronan nodded slightly: "It's a little smaller." β
I vaguely remember that Steve Jobs has always adhered to the strategy of small screens, but the future development trend of smartphones, the screen is getting bigger and bigger, including Apple.
Ronan took out a box containing the trial machine and pushed it to Nikia, "This one is for you." When Nikia picked it up curiously, he reminded again: "This is a trial machine that has not yet been marketed, you can use it yourself, don't spread it." And also...... Well, the security is not very high, important pictures and files should not be stored inside. β
Nikia knew Ronan, so he didn't refuse what he sent, and after putting it away, she said, "I remember." β
Ronan gave the other one to the bodyguard Finch.
According to his understanding, the first generation of kidney machine should be officially launched after this year's Apple developer conference.
Finch declined Ronan's offer and said, "I'll use Nokia." β
Ronan said, "How many years has your antique been used?"
Finch pulled out the Nokia straight phone, which had begun to peel off the paint on the back cover, and said, "Good security." β
Nikia asked, "The technology of an old phone is comparable to that of a new one." β
"That's not what I'm talking about. Finch smiled and said simply: "I have a friend who works in Africa all the year round, and he encountered an emergency some time ago, and he happened to have a Nokia straight plate in his pocket that we bought together, and his mobile phone saved his life." β
Although Finch was very vague, both Ronan and Nikia knew what he had done and could guess what he meant.
Nikia said: "I didn't expect the phone to have this kind of function. β
Ronan laughed: "In the future, mobile phones will have many functions." β
For example, there are rumors on the Internet that US soldiers are equipped with kidney machines as standard, and smartphones directly act on military operations.
For example, a super smartphone with a star can be thrown out as a bomb to kill the enemy at a critical moment, and the concealment is absolutely good.
If various mobile phone brands sit together to play cards, this mobile phone manufacturer shouts 1, that mobile phone manufacturer shouts 2, and it directly shouts and fried!
Spike!
There is also a certain brand of smart phone, which comes with a hot water bottle function, which is especially suitable for use in winter, and it is warm when you hold it, so you don't have to worry about freezing your hands in winter.
Anyway, the function of the kidney machine generation is not bad in the smart phones of the same era, Ronan sat on the sofa and fiddled with it for a while.
Once, due to economic reasons, Ronan did not use the first generation of kidney machines, and it seems that the first generation did not enter the market through formal channels.
When he really came into contact with the kidney machine, he was already in the fourth generation.
It seems that from the fourth generation, there are rumors about selling kidneys and buying machines.
As for whether it is true or deliberately hyped news, Ronan is not very clear.
But there is no doubt that Apple will develop rapidly in the next decade or so.
Apple's profit margins are said to be quite staggering.
Therefore, Ronan has never interrupted to continue to invest in Apple and increase his stake in Apple.
Finch went out on a trip, and when he returned, he asked Nikia to send all the servants away.
"What's wrong?" Ronan asked with concern.
"There's new news coming from our people investigating in the UK. Finch lowered his voice slightly: "Last year, our people set their sights on the target and followed them to London, but there was no result, the target is very low-key, and the contact is very normal people. β
Nikia also looked at Finch with concern, she was also involved in this matter, and it was she who discovered the anomaly in the first place.
"Actually, we didn't have a clear discovery, but after six months of analysis, we came up with a data," Finch said. He was quite cautious: "In addition to the life aspect, the people who come into contact with the Sun the most are the ones who come into contact with them. But the target has a lot to do with the media industry......"
Ronan continued: "Give up the others for the time being, and let them keep an eye on the line of The Sun." β
Although Finch didn't quite understand, he had always been extremely strong in execution, and immediately said, "Okay." β
Ronan reminded again: "Don't alarm them, and if you find something, you must pay attention to secrecy." β
"Rest assured. Finch said, "Those who have been sent are trustworthy people." β
Ronan sighed, "Things can be complicated. β
"No matter how complicated it is, no one can ignore our power," Finch said. β
Ronan thought for a moment and then said, "You call Connie and ask her to pay more attention to Congress and the black congressman in Washington." β
Some time ago, Connie went to Washington, D.C., with several public relations experts on behalf of him and Relativity Entertainment, to engage in some activities in politics.
For some reason, Ronan was inconvenient to go over and not suitable for personal participation.
This is also for security reasons.
Finch said, "I'll call Connie in a moment." β
Nikia then said, "I'm going to get ready for the encrypted phone." β
Ronan ignored the two men and left the villa and went into the back garden, thinking as he walked in the quiet flower garden.
Many business matters are not only financial, but also political.
Therefore, it is simply impossible to complete it at this stage, and it is very difficult to achieve the goal.
But Relativity Entertainment has been investing heavily in the black charcoal head for many years, not asking him to bring much help, as long as the political side does not become a huge obstacle.
2008 is an election year in the United States, and under normal circumstances, in January 2009, the white house will have a new owner.
The black charcoal head has already made up his mind to run in the 2008 general election.
Although according to the normal trajectory, the black charcoal head will not be able to take the position until 2009, but it is impossible for Relativity Entertainment to take action in 2009.
Most of the preparation must be done in advance.
Over the next week, Ronan and Robert Iger met and talked about it, but Ronan didn't mention anything about him.
The focus of the discussion between the two remains the future expansion plan of Relativity Entertainment.
"Overall, we have two main goals. β
In the office, Ronan said to Robert Iger: "First, content production is still the top priority, and with enough content, we can use all channels to exert force, and a wide range of channels can be transformed into huge commercial benefits." β
He then put up two fingers: "Second, have a heavyweight voice in Hollywood and strive to get a seat in the MPAA." β
Robert Iger said: "In terms of content production, after we got the rights to a series of Disney series, major companies have also increased their vigilance against Relativity Entertainment, and it is as difficult as you can imagine that we want to plan a popular series from other companies. β
Ronan nodded slightly: "I understand, it's a bit unrealistic to want to get something from the Big Six again, I have a deal with Warner Bros., but whether it can be reached or not, it's hard to say now." β
Warner Bros. has not been followed since Charles Rowan approached him.
According to Ronan's speculation, Warner Bros. is likely to be watching the filming and market response of "The Dark Knight".
Ronan is not in a hurry, and when "The Dark Knight" is released, Relativity Entertainment will be more proactive.
"Your vision is famous, and Warner Bros. will definitely have concerns. Robert Iger pondered, "What else is the copyright?"
Ronan replied, "The most attractive series in Hollywood and the most widely accepted by North American audiences. β
Robert Iger is a professional manager in Hollywood, and of course he understands what Ronan meant, so he looked at him in surprise and asked, "You mean ...... Star Wars series?"
He was a little hard to believe: "Lucasfilm is going to sell the rights to Star Wars?"
"Lucasfilm does not sell the rights to the Star Wars franchise separately. Ronan first stated a fact, and then answered Robert Iger's doubts: "If the timing is right, we can try to buy Lucasfilm!"
The answer was a bit unexpected by Robert Iger.
Ronan said simply: "Lucasfilm has a single Star Wars franchise that is worth us, not to mention that they also have Raiders of the Lost Ark and Industrial Light & Magic. If there is industrial light and magic, Relativity Entertainment will have the ability to produce special effects on its own. β
Robert Iger quickly regained his composure, listened to Ronan's words, and quickly thought of Ronan's friendship with George Lucas in recent years, and invested considerable energy in the USC Film School Alumni Association, and instantly understood.
"You had a plan, didn't you?" Robert Iger said with a smile, "Ronan, did you have this idea a few years ago?" β
Ronan admits: "It's just a preliminary idea, and if you want to realize it, you need to make a plan and carry out specific operations." β
Robert Iger nodded slowly, this was one of the things he did best.
Ronan added: "I've learned that George Lucas has the idea of retiring, but he hasn't groomed a successor for Lucasfilm. β
Robert Iger answered: "That is, there is a possibility that George Lucas will sell Lucasfilm?"
"Yes. Ronan has been in contact with George Lucas several times: "It's a huge possibility. β
Robert Iger said: "I'll start the targeted preliminary preparations, but it has to be a long-term plan for Relativity Entertainment to digest what it has gained and to build up strength again. β
"In a year or two, Lucas won't be retiring," Ronan said. β
Robert Iger nodded, and instead asked, "What about the MPAA? Disney won't help us anymore." β
Ronan smiled and said, "It's hard to be a new member, you can only find a way from the existing members. β
