After a while, Charles walked in with a stack of documents, and pulled out two copies from the materials and handed them to Ang Lee.

Ang Lee took it and saw that it was the information of the digital realm and Weta Digital.

Ang Lee first looked at the digital realm.

Digital Domain, also known as Digital Domain, abbreviated as D2, is located in Venice of California, California, USA, and is a special effects company second only to Industrial Light & Magic in the United States. The technical strength of the D2 is the particle effect.

One of the largest digital studios in the world. The "digital realm" is internationally renowned for its innovation and artistry.

Although Digital Domain, like Industrial Light & Magic, is good at solving 80% of problems in the post-production and 20% of problems in 3D, Digital Domain's 3D technology research and development capabilities are so strong that even Industrial Light & Magic cannot be ignored. The rendering of the day after tomorrow tornado is divided into the RGB light layer of the particles and the raymarching depth layer of the volume shader.

He has won two Academy Awards for Best Visual Effects and an Academy Award for Technical Achievement.

The "digital sphere" has been struggling to make ends meet for a long time after the 2008 economic crisis. As of September 2012, the company had debt of $16 million and multiple losses of more than $50 million. To reverse the situation, Digital Sphere established a special committee on August 22, 2012, and the city of Port St. Lucie, Florida, provided it with $135 million in tax breaks and grants after submitting a loss report to the relevant authorities, but there was still no hope of turning it around.

After looking at the digital field, let's take a look at Weta Digital.

Weta Digital is a leading global integrated visual effects company.

With over 65,000 square feet of studio and more than 600 creative staff, Weta can design and produce a wide range of large and miniature props, including professional prop modeling and tinkering, creature prop making, armor and weapon crafting, miniature carving, large sets, sets and costumes, and, of course, special effects. Richard, the director of the studio, is a special effects designer and director with a total of 14 senior designers, who produce meticulous models from the smallest details of the human body to every part, in addition to the 3D sculptures required for the shooting, the studio also produces the studio for museums and public exhibitions, large scene sculptures that can withstand winds of up to 140 kilometers per hour outdoors, and the production of armor and weapons.

And Weta Digital has the world's top "performance capture" technology, and it has taken it to the point of omnipotence.

After reading the information, Ang Lee roughly understood the strengths of the two companies, the strengths of the digital field are in rendering scenes, such as tornadoes and tsunamis, while Weta Digital's advantages are "performance capture" and model props. The two companies are half a catty, and it is essential to shoot both companies in the future.

One makes an alien scene, think of the Avengers IV's Armageddon, and the outer space of the "Guardians of the Galaxy".

The other makes models, armor, such as the dinosaurs of "Jurassic Park", the Hulk, and so on.

However, Weta Digital is still profitable at this stage and is not short of funds, and it is a problem for it to want to acquire a wholly-owned company.

Putting down the documents, Li An rubbed his eyes and said: I have acquired both companies.

Charles smiled and said: I am happy to accept this job, after all, I can get a lot of commissions, but for Barry's sake I give you a piece of advice, the special effects company is a bottomless pit, a special effects company has to invest 100 million dollars a year, you have to buy two at once, I advise you to think clearly, you better buy Vita, right?

Li An shook his head and said: No, I need both, thank you for your advice, your advice will bring you tens of billions of dollars in income in the future, I am not bad for money, and I will not take advantage, I have planned to acquire billions of assets in the United States within 5 years, I will hand it over to you, because I think you are a friend worth making.

Ang Lee's words shocked Barry Diller and Charles.

Charles said excitedly: Li, are you telling the truth? You Chinese are really rich.

Li An nodded and said: It's true, the education that Chinese have received since childhood is that the person who drips water will repay the spring, translated into English is that you gave me a glass of water when I was very thirsty, then one day when you are very thirsty, I will supply you with a whole mountain spring water, Chinese never get cheap from friends, we are friends, aren't we?

Charles said excitedly: Yes, yes, we are friends, very good friends.

Because we are friends, I want to tell you an unspoken rule of the United States, if you want to buy the "digital field", then it is very simple, it only costs tens of millions of dollars.

But if you want to buy Weta Digital, especially a special effects company that is still profitable, then you have to buy a company that is not very profitable.

That's not what I mean, it's the state of the United States, because it's impossible for you to take a good company for nothing, and the Department of Commerce won't allow it, can you understand?

Ang Lee nodded and said: I understand, but isn't it just right that I acquired a "Weta Digital" and piggybacked on a "digital field" with poor returns?

Charles said: "This company with bad earnings must be a company in a different field.

Li An nodded and said: Then you can recommend a few to me. If I buy two companies that are not making good returns, can I bring them back to China.

Charles shrugged his shoulders and said: I'm happy to apply for you, see how much you spend! If you solve a big burden for the government, they will definitely support them with both hands, even if they want them to striptease in front of you.

Charles took the document just now and handed it to Ang Lee and said: Take a look at these companies first, these are all promising companies I selected for you.

Ang Lee took it and looked at none of them with potential, closed his eyes and thought about it, his goal is a movie, so what can match the movie.

The process of the movie is nothing more than the director, actors, theaters, and audiences, as if they have nothing to do with anything, so what should I do?

Ang Lee thought for a while and said to Charles: Are there any high-tech companies in the United States that need to make a move?

Charles thought for a while and said: I really don't think so, the United States has banned high-tech companies in China recently, after all, the two countries are still hostile.

Ang Lee sighed in disappointment. Charles went on to say that he wanted a high-tech company to sell part of their business.

Ang Lee asked: What does this company do?

Charles said: It's a tech giant, you know, it's called Motorola.

Motorola is headquartered in Schaumburg, Illinois, USA, on the outskirts of Chicago. It is one of the world's top 100 Fortune companies and a global leader in chip manufacturing and electronic communications.

He now wants to sell his mobile phone business and offer $1.5 billion, but the current mobile phone market has basically been dominated by Nokia and Samsung, so Motorola is simply throwing off the burden, which is a burden.

Hearing Charles's words, Ang Lee's eyes lit up, and he wanted to acquire the six major film and television companies in the United States, among which the cheapest Disney cost 35 billion US dollars, so he could only make money from business first.

Motorola is a good project, as an earthling, Ang Lee knows how profitable mobile phones are.

Apple only occupies a part of the mobile phone market, and has become the world's No. 1 company, with assets of more than one trillion yuan and worth two Alibaba, which is the god.

So Ang Lee immediately decided to win Motorola's mobile phone business.

"I can buy Motorola's mobile phone division, but I have to bring it back to China, and I need all the patents for mobile phones," Lee said.

Charles said: Have you really decided? That's a $1.5 billion business, and now that the mobile phone market is fixed, it's hard to stand out of the encirclement.

Ang Lee smiled and said, "How do you know if you don't try?" I like challenges. And the talent in it is still very good.
