Chapter 346: Titanic
Hearing this, Alain Shugart was not annoyed, smiled faintly, and ordered the staff to start playing the DVD movie.
Soon, a high-definition LCD screen began to play a Disney company's movie.
As soon as they saw the picture of the large frequency screen, everyone was in an uproar!
"This picture is actually ...... So clear!!"
Alain Shugart looked at everyone's shocked expressions and was secretly proud.
"As you can see, in terms of the quality of movies, DVDs are enough to crush any product!!!This must be in no dispute!" Alain Shugart pointed to the screen and said confidently, "Therefore, the future of videotape home movies will definitely be replaced by DVDs! From the previous CD music to the current film and television DVDs, Seagate Technology has been leading the technology trend." The purpose of this event is to promote the Seagate DVD standard, and I hope more companies will join the action!"
After finishing the words, the audience immediately applauded.
Alain Shugart smiled slightly, and invited the CEOs of many partner companies to come to the stage, such as Disney, Twentieth Century Fox, Netflix, and dozens of CEOs, to sign DVD promotion agreements at the press conference on the spot.
This scene is very sensational and shocking, highlighting the strength and heritage of Seagate Technology, and letting people know how strong the Seagate DVD standard alliance is, and the companies that have not yet joined it are rushing to join.
Different from the reactions of ordinary guests, there were a few people in the audience whose faces were very ugly.
"I didn't expect Seagate Technology to start promoting the DVD standard so early, and there are so many allies!" a middle-aged white man frowned and said to the short Japanese man sitting next to him, "Yamashita-kun, how is the development of Sony DVD? We must catch up with Seagate DVD as soon as possible, the longer it drags on, the more dangerous it becomes, and in the end, Columbia Films has to choose to support Seagate DVD standard." ”
The short Japanese's face turned pale, and he sighed in a low voice and said, "Our research and development speed is already very fast, how can we expect Seagate Technology to launch a DVD so quickly, which caught us off guard." And Sony DVDs won't be released until next year......"
"So slow!!" The corner of the white middle-aged man's mouth twitched, a year slower than others, how could this be competitive? When the Sony DVD was released, the daylily was cold.
……
After the press conference, there was a celebration cocktail party, and Li Zetian stayed to communicate with some business partners.
Many Hollywood film companies are the targets of Li Zetian's wooing.
At the moment, he is talking to the CEO of Universal Pictures.
"Mr. Adam Ferguson, I heard that Universal Pictures is working on a sci-fi adventure film, Jurassic Park, based on Michael Clayton's 1990 publication of the same name?"
A middle-aged man in a suit and a hat responded with a smile: "Yes, directed by Steven Spielberg, the special effects of the movie are still to ask your company's industrial light and magic to help!"
"Hehe, Industrial Light and Magic, the special effects must be very good!" Li Zetian said with a smile, but he was a little depressed in his heart, and he forgot to get the copyright of "Jurassic Park" to Disney.
Adam Ferguson nodded and praised, "Hehe, that's true. ILM is the world's most powerful computer special effects company, and I watched a short special effects video of "Jurassic Park", which was quite shocking!"
"Then congratulations in advance on the box office success of "Jurassic Park"!"
"Haha, thank you for your auspicious words!"
“hi,Mr· Li。 At this time, a woman's voice came from behind Li Zetian. Li Zetian turned his head and saw that it was Nikita, a well-known producer of Twentieth Century Fox, wearing a red long dress, graceful, with a thin waist and plump buttocks, her skin was like clotted fat, exuding a porcelain-like luster, and the sexy little lips of the ruby were closed one by one, extremely charming and seductive.
Adam Ferguson glanced at Nikita and then at Li Zetian, revealing an ambiguous smile.
"Hehe, Mr. Li, you talk, I'll go over there and talk to a good friend. With that, Adam Ferguson immediately left.
Li Zetian shook his head, despised him, and immediately looked at Nikita and said, "Hello, Miss Nikita." ”
Nikita smiled and walked over, and Li Zetian immediately asked about a charming aroma.
“Mr· Li, you don't seem to want to see me, is it because I'm ugly?" Nikita looked at Li Zetian with a resentful expression.
Li Zetian smiled: "Hehe, how can it be, Miss Nikita is naturally beautiful and belongs to a peerless beauty!"
“Mr· Li, you really can compliment people! Am I that beautiful?", Nikita couldn't help but take a few steps forward, exhaling like an orchid.
Li Zetian's mind and body were in a daze, and not far away, Dongfang Yuqin was holding a wine glass, and the old god was looking at him.
Damn, this sexy little goblin wants to tempt me again, but I can't fall for it, Yuqin is still watching me over there!
Li Zetian subconsciously took a few steps back, saw a person walking on the right-hand side, and suddenly said to Nikita as if he had found a life-saving straw: "Oh, James Cameron is there, I happened to have something to talk about with him." ”
With that, Li Zetian immediately walked towards James Cameron.
Nikita frowned slightly, stomped his feet, and left angrily, scolding in his mouth: "Hmph, I really don't understand the style!"
"Hi, Director James Cameron. Li Zetian beckoned to him.
"Oh, Mr. Hello Li!"
The two quickly sat down on a bench next to them and chatted.
Li Zetian asked: "Director Cameron, have you been making movies recently?"
"No, I'm still resting. ”
"I had an idea to make a movie. ”
James Cameron nodded and motioned for Li Zetian to continue.
Li Zetian pondered for a moment and said: "In 1912, the Titanic cruise ship hit an iceberg and sank when it set sail for its maiden. I wanted to use this without background to tell the touching story of two people in different classes, Jack, a poor painter, and Ruth, a noblewoman, who abandoned their worldly prejudices and fell in love, and finally Jack gave up the chance of life to Ruth. ”
When James Cameron heard this, he suddenly fell into deep thought.
Li Zetian couldn't help but be stunned, damn me, this is an epiphany?
After half a while, James Cameron looked a little excited, and involuntarily said: "Mr. · Li, it's a good story, and I suddenly wanted to make this movie!"
Li Zetian was secretly overjoyed and said: "Great, then I will give you full authority for this movie, including the director, screenwriter and even producer, let you be in charge! This movie, invest at least 100 million US dollars, if it is not enough, you can add it." I hope you'll be able to make it a very classic!"
Hearing this, James Cameron was slightly stunned, and his heart was very moved.
“Mr· Li, since you believe in me so much, I will live up to my trust!!" James Cameron solemnly promised.
"Well, cheers!" Li Zetian said with a smile and raised his glass.
"Cheers!"
After drinking this glass of wine, Li Zetian and James Cameron began to talk about the plot of "Titanic", and Li Zetian frequently made witty remarks, which couldn't help but surprise James Cameron.
“Mr· Li, if you're going to be a screenwriter, you're definitely the best screenwriter in Hollywood. ”
At this time, Dongfang Yuqin unconsciously walked to Li Zetian's side and said with a smile: "Director Cameron, Mr. · Li used to be a well-known writer, and his two works, "The Devotion of Suspect X" and "White Night Walking", have established him as a master in the world of reasoning!"
James Cameron was shocked, "It turns out that Mr. · Li turned out to be a master of reasoning, no wonder when making up the story, · Li, why don't you write the script for Titanic?"
Li Zetian hurriedly shook his head and waved his hand, "Well, it's better to be exempt, I haven't written it for a long time, and I haven't been involved in the screenwriting industry before, so it's still up to you to write the script for this movie." ”
James Cameron said, "Okay, but after the film is filmed, I'm going to add your name to the screenwriting column." ”
"Is this good?"
"What's wrong? Aren't you coming up with a lot of the plot of this movie...... You should also have a share of the credit for the script, how can I keep it for myself?" James Cameron smiled, "Wouldn't you be on the screenwriter list to better promote this movie?!" Li, in order for the movie to be a big hit at the box office, you won't say yes, right?"
