Shirley had previously been a vice president at Google for many years, and no one wanted to give her a higher position. Many people don't understand what kind of talent Chen Tiandu values her, but others chose her without choosing her.

Shirley Sandberg was born in Washington, D.C., in 1969 into a family of ordinary businessmen, and earned a bachelor's degree in economics from Harvard University. He received his MBA from Harvard Business School in 1995 and served as Chief of Staff to the Secretary of the Treasury in the Clinton administration and vice president of global online sales and operations at Google.

Her reaction to Chen Tiandu's invitation was also very simple.

As the big boss of Google, she naturally conducted a multi-faceted investigation of Chen Tiandu, and this man who is known as "never failing" has left too many mysteries. The cloak of a star hides the essence of his genius.

Perhaps in the eyes of most successful businessmen, celebrities are a group of clowns who dance, sing and sing on stage, and arrogant capitalists are superficially favored by celebrities, and may be scolded as stupid behind their backs. But this phenomenon will definitely not be put on Chen Tiandu, and from this summer, no one will underestimate this star.

She was very excited about the blueprint drawn by Chen Tiandu, and she did have the idea of going out of Google.

Chen Tiandu gave her a lot of responsibility for most of the work at Matrix Technology, sales, marketing, acquisitions, partnerships, personnel, public policy and liaison, and Andy Rubin was only responsible for research and development. In addition, Chen Tiandu's focus will obviously be on movies, which is equivalent to letting her Shirley be in charge alone.

This gave her incomparable pressure, and it also made this strong woman even more excited from her bones. There was no reason for her to refuse. So the two sides hit it off. There is no obstacle at all.

But......

Yes. But......

On the first day of Shirley's arrival in Silicon Valley, she regretted it, "It was a completely empty shelf, without any formal company staff structure, except for a few otaku, and not even a single front desk." ”

"That's exactly what you need to do, Shirley." Chen Tian teased without the slightest pressure: "I don't have anything else, it's just a lot of dollars." A lot of cash is nowhere to be spent, and I am saved money. ”

Shirley let out a sigh of suffocation. Sigh: "Well, you won." But I'm also very dissatisfied with the research team, many of them are not qualified for the current work, and if I only rely on the current team to continue research, I am afraid that I will not be able to achieve anything in two years. ”

Chen Tiandu obviously knows this situation, "Then dig people, dig from Microsoft, dig from Samsung, dig from Motorola, and dig from Nokia." The most important. It is dug from apples. Jobs is coming back, and it's better to dig up the fault line in Apple's R&D team. Don't be soft. ”

Shirley was curious about how much he valued apples, "Why are apples special?" ”

“…… You'll find out later. ”

Shirley was depressed again, "Okay, so what's going on with your girlfriend?" ”

"Kate?"

Chen Tiandu smiled, "Let her play, can't a pregnant woman make herself happier at will?" ”

Chen Tiandu has refused to let her take over the job, and even signed her agent into the company to serve as the deputy director of the brokerage department. But Kate is still moving freely, and foreigners are obviously not as expensive as Chinese children. Serving food and clothing, offering like a bodhisattva. She had to find something to do for herself, or she would have to suffocate her.

Chen Tiandu naturally played with her.

As a result, Kate not only witnessed the birth of an emerging technology company in Silicon Valley, but also went to the "Matrix Tesla" company in Silicon Valley.

Compared with the "poor and white" matrix technology, "Tesla" is much more majestic, at least the company's structure is much more reasonable. But their research is obviously sorry for Chen Tiandu's big investment year after year.

Electric vehicles manufactured by traditional large automobile companies have limited mileage, mediocre performance, and average appearance.

Matrix-Tesla Motors is built for people who love to drive. This car is not to minimize the cost of use, but to pursue better performance, more beautiful and more attractive.

At present, there are also many contradictions within the company, and the management has questioned the founder of the study, Martin Eberhard, who is completely overly involved in cost control, but there are few research results. To put it bluntly, it is to question his ability. And Martin, as one of the founders of the company, is old, which puts the company in a contradiction.

Not only the management contradictions, but also the research crisis broke out intensively, and the gearbox problem became the fuse.

As a supercar comparable to Porsche and Ferrari, the requirements for high-performance acceleration are very high, at this time, the ordinary electric car is not equipped with a multi-stage gearbox can not meet the needs of the roadster, because the asynchronous motor has a low power output efficiency at low speeds, so the introduction of a two-stage gearbox is logical.

But the problem is that there is no precedent in the industry for how to systematically develop between the high-voltage and high-power electronic control system and the gearbox coordination.

R&D has entered a problem, and Chen Tiandu has to increase investment again.

After Kate visited the company, she told Chen Tiandu about the situation. Chen Tiandu actually didn't have a good choice, so he could only re-find a new capable EO for Matrix Tesla, and the company's problems would be solved by the new EO.

But this is not something Kate can help, she also thinks that she has helped Chen Tiandu a lot, and left Silicon Valley with satisfaction.

At this time, Chen Tiandu had already taken the whole crew to Iceland, Chicago, and London to shoot exterior locations.

……

Compared with comic book heroes such as "Superman" and "Spider-Man", "Batman" is a relatively ordinary one, neither superman-like alien born alien dignitaries, nor Spider-Man's genetically mutated, and can become a superweapon with his body.

He is a real earthling, he has no talent, what he needs is solid training, he really sweats more in peacetime and sheds less blood in wartime, and at the same time firmly believes that knowledge is power, and he needs advanced equipment to arm himself, fortunately, Batman can rejoice, "What you have is money".

The poor depend on mutation. The rich rely on equipment!

That expensive outfit was no problem for Bruce Wayne.

The "Batman" series also does not have the "Superman" series in general, which has become the mark of a generation. It's not as flat as the "Spider-Man" series. swept thousands of troops at the box office, the "Batman" series is a series of twists and turns, from the beginning, to the development, from the low tide to the rebirth, his experience is not much smoother than the ups and downs of Batman, who has a heavy history.

American comic style, to be honest, Chen Tian doesn't like it very much.

They like to use heavy colors to express their flamboyance. Whether it is the shape of the characters or the costumes, they tend to be exaggerated. Especially women, if you don't show your breasts, you don't know how to draw.

"Batman" is no exception, but when Tim Burton took the helm of the first part, the series seems to have begun to be branded by him: with coldness and gothic, with absurdity and exaggeration, such an alternative style can easily make many viewers uncomfortable.

For example, when Chen Tiandu first happened to see the circus-like appearance of the first clown on TV, he had an urge not to watch it. To this day, I took over the job myself. I reworked the previous Batman movies.

In his opinion, the first two films at the helm of Tim Burton were still very successful. The gloomy Gotham town can very well set off Batman's lonely figure, and the villains of these two parts are very distinctive, one is the classic clown image played by Nicholson with a wicked smile, that evil, that neurotic, and at the same time a little elegance from time to time, can be described as a classic villain who is extremely crazy; There is also an extremely embarrassing villain - Penguin Man, he was abandoned since he was a child, he can only be accompanied by a group of penguins in the sewers, and his long-term isolation from society has made him form an antisocial personality, and at the same time he is trying to gain social re-recognition, until he is used, abandoned by society again, he finally hysterically wants to respond with destruction, his tragic death is extremely sympathetic, a very injured villain makes people feel that he is justified in rebellion, even if the clown himself is not a good bird, But his ultimate madness is precisely because of the victimization of a conspiracy, which forms a major feature of the Batman series, that is, many villains often have sympathetic experiences, and they are crazy and die very desolate, and Penguin Man is one of the representatives.

But his next two "Batman" films began a weak journey, and even almost knocked the series into a state of no return.

Part of the reason is due to the successor's director Schumacher, Tim's films are too personalized, and the style of the first two parts of "Batman" is not something that ordinary people can easily imitate, but I don't know if it is because of the pressure of Warner's attempt to maintain the unity of the series style, or the doubt of his own ability, Schumacher is inertial to continue Tim's style.

As a result, there was a very rough imitation, trying to gothic and exaggerate this movie, just look at the shape of a few villains, such as "Riddle Man", exaggerated and crazy, but there is no such personality as the clown's madness, and the exaggerated headline makes people look tired.

And the failure of the continuation of the style, but also the failure of the character building, the two successors of Batman are not satisfactory, these two parts are so weak in the embarrassment of the director's style, the "Batman" series has gradually shut down, and the fourth part has stopped for several years, if it weren't for Chen Tiandu to reopen the old case, it is estimated that he would have to sleep in the Warner resource library.

And the first thing Chen Tiandu took over was to abandon Tim Burton's things and subvert the style of the previous four films.

He has developed his own cinematic style that has made him unbeatable in Hollywood.

Gothic? After filming "The Matrix" and "Van Helsing", he never wanted to mention the word again.

"Realism!" Chen Tiandu said the same to Warner and other senior executives at the beginning.

At the beginning, Warner's top management couldn't imagine what their impression of gothic and exaggerated "Batman" would look like if it was suddenly made into a documentary-like crime realistic style. There were even regrets, but they had no choice.

Since they took the initiative to catch up with Chen Tiandu, the experience was often a little sympathetic, and the villains who acted exaggerated to the point of being funny were gone. And the crazy villain with bastard logic, which is easier for the general audience to accept, is here.

"It's my style!" (To be continued......) i1292
