Chapter 1481: Soaring
After a period of publicity, "Crazy Stone" is about to be released nationwide.
Unlike the previous life, this version of "Crazy Stone" is no longer a low-budget small production of two or three million, but a standard commercial film with an investment of more than 10 million.
Moreover, there are also top actors in this movie, such as Liu Tianwang, who plays the Hong Kong international thief in the play, and is still a super-first-class king-level actor in the field of Chinese films.
Liu Tianwang has not played a villain for many years, and even the male number two is rare, but in "Crazy Stone", the international thief he plays can only be regarded as one of the many male number three, and on the contrary, the male number one in this movie, The second male lead, but all of them are little-known young actors, many people say that this movie can invite Liu Tianwang to play a group of unknown actors, which is incredible, but Ning Hao knows very well in his heart that the reason why Liu Tianwang took over this movie is that he came to the two signboards of Muye Imaging and Li Mu.
Because Li Mu deliberately pressed the hilarious comedy movie "Crazy Stone" to be released after SARS, there were almost no competitors during this time period.
What's more, because urban residents have just experienced the extremely depressing SARS epidemic, they are in great need of a release emotionally and subconsciously, and at this time, walking into the cinema and watching a hilarious movie that they did not dare to go to before has become the best choice in front of many people.
Ning Hao has been busy in the crew of "Flying Tigers" before, and after "Crazy Stone" was finalized, he temporarily bid farewell to the crew and returned to Beijing to prepare for the release, and during this time, he has run many test screenings across the country, as expected, the response in the test screening of "Crazy Stone" was excellent, and the audience almost laughed from beginning to end, and some people were even forced to go to the hospital for treatment because they laughed too presumptuously.
A movie with such good praise from the masses can also be met with a bumper harvest at the box office, so Ning Hao's mood is exceptionally good during this time.
is about to be officially released, and in the past few days, Ning Hao's energy has been focused on the premiere, in addition to the starring team including Liu Tianwang, he also invited all the signed artists of Makino Imaging, as well as some friends in the circle, but Li Mu was not invited.
In Ning Hao's mind, Li Mu is his Bole and his benefactor, and when his first theatrical movie is released, he naturally hopes that Li Mu can appear at the premiere, but Ning Hao also understands in his heart that Li Mu is too busy now, and all kinds of big actions are continuous, which also proves from the side that he has no time to participate in such an inconsequential thing as the movie premiere now.
On the way back to the city from Miyun, Li Mu made a phone call to Ning Hao, and as soon as he connected, he asked Ning Hao: "How are the preparations for the release?"
Ning Hao said with a smile: "It's almost ready, now I'm waiting to see the real chapter after the release." ”
Li Mu asked him: "Is there a psychological box office estimate?"
Ning Hao replied: "The passing line is to break 100 million, the excellent line is to break 200 million, if you can break 300 million, it will be blessed by the Buddha." ”
Li Mu said: "Judging from the quality of this movie, as long as the publicity and film scheduling can keep up, 300 million should be no problem." ”
Saying that, Li Mu said again: "I heard that there is a premiere soon?"
"Yes, the premiere will be held at 8 p.m. next Friday, and the national screening will be officially released at 0:00 p.m. next Saturday. ”
Li Mu said: "Why didn't you inform me about the premiere? Don't you want to invite me?"
Ning Hao hurriedly explained: "It's not that I don't want to invite you, Mr. Li, but I'm afraid that you will be too busy and cause you trouble, what you are doing now is often hundreds of millions of dollars of big deals, how can you have extra energy to attend the premiere." ”
Speaking of this, Ning Hao hurriedly asked: "Mr. Li, do you have time next Friday?" If you can spare a few hours to come to the scene to show your face, it would be great!"
Li Mu said: "I have promised Du Wei that I will go to her school next Friday to pick her up and go to the scene together, so even if you don't invite me, I will come uninvited." ”
Ning Hao became excited: "Great! If Mr. Li also comes to the premiere, then I am confident that I will break through the box office of 300 million." ”
……
Before the team returned to the city, Li Mu asked Li Ziwei to book a hotel for Larry Page, and the team first sent Larry Page to the hotel where he was staying, and then sent Li Mu to Makino Technology.
At this time, more than 12 hours had passed since Google's decision to fully accept the acquisition of Muye &Baidu, and the matter was not completely hidden, so it quickly spread in Silicon Valley.
The whole Silicon Valley is now discussing this appalling merger and acquisition, among them, Silicon Valley entrepreneurs because they can see what happened to Google, so it is inevitable that there is a feeling of sadness, while ordinary practitioners are extremely shocked by this upcoming acquisition, they can't believe that Google's anti-risk ability will be so weak, and they didn't expect that Makino Technology's influence on the industry has reached such an incredible point.
In the eyes of most people, Google's deal this time is an extremely unsuccessful one, and it is even more unbelievable that it is willing to take over such a demanding merger and acquisition request, giving one-third of its shares to a Chinese person almost for nothing, and many people are asking friends who communicate with each other in the process of exchanging this matter: "Is Google's head squeezed by the door? How can it agree to such a perverted merger and acquisition agreement?"
Many people say that even if Google really wants to compromise with Makino Technology in the end, it should not compromise in this way, because this compromise is too ugly to lose.
However, to the amazement of Silicon Valley, although everyone in the technology field could not understand why Google would make such a decision, the capital market's forecast for Google's current prospects turned from gloomy to sunny almost instantly.
The capital market does not care at all, and there is no need to care about Google's current shareholding structure, they only look at Google's future development prospects, in their opinion, Google's next step is not only to eliminate a heavyweight competitor, can continue to maintain its position as the world's first in the field of search engines, but also to obtain a large amount of resource injection from a giant company such as Makino Technology, so no matter how much Makino Technology shares in Google in the future, Google's prospects are very good.
As a result, the capital market immediately adjusted the valuation of Google, and many financial institutions are also making new assessments, in their opinion, the biggest real estate in Silicon Valley is not technology patents, nor company property, but Li Mu.
If the acquisition is completed, Google's stock price will soar from the lowest period of three or four billion dollars to exceed six billion in a very short period of time, and exceed 10 billion in a month!
