Chapter 40: Dry goods first
Caesar is now in a situation that the average successful person does not encounter at all, and it is estimated that only the founders of the giant Internet companies around the turn of the millennium could relate to it.
It's about making great achievements in a very short period of time, and then having a huge influence, and then a sudden rise in social status, but not having the mentality to match it......
The explanation is more straightforward, that is, the poor ** silk becomes Wang Sicong in seconds, and then the next day he gets up and still habitually wears a vest and shorts flip-flops, and goes straight to the breakfast stall alone, and the fried dough and soy milk can be made, but he didn't find that a group of kidnappers around him had been eyeing him.
Everyone knows you're super rich, but you haven't reacted yet...... As a result, sooner or later, they were treated as meat tickets by the kidnappers, and the stuffy sticks sneaked up on the goods taken away in a wave.
It's not necessarily the right example, but Caesar is currently a mindset shift that can't keep up with assets and influence.
Why are these superstars coming back?
How fresh, the youngest billionaire in the world! Every year, game consoles and cartridges alone are revenue in hundreds of millions, and that's not counting the peripherals.
And obviously has the intention to get involved in the film and television industry, not counting animation works, "Alien", "Groundhog Day" and "Time and Space Heroes", which are written by himself, have already achieved remarkable results, and he is also the largest shareholder and top person in charge of MTV TV.
After this VGL performance, the preliminary estimate of the number of players and music fans is that Caesar's global fans combined are definitely more than 100 million.
Although it is not known how many of them are iron powder...... But once the number of things on the earth other than bacteria and microorganisms exceeds 100 million, it is not something that anyone dares to underestimate.
If it is said on the news that 100 million cockroaches have taken to the streets in a certain place, anyone who hears it will have to tremble.
In the 80s, if 100 million customers bought a certain company's goods, the owner of the company could go crazy on the spot.
You must know that in 2015, before Caesar's rebirth, the number of Apple mobile phone users in the world exceeded 500 million. You know, it's the Internet era, it's Apple.
What does it mean for such a rich man who makes money like printing money, and is enthusiastic about the film and television industry? On behalf of the big financier!
This year is different from the Huaxia Film Market in 2015, it is a group of funders who can't find an investment way with a check, and can only watch the domestic garbage pieces harvest the fruits in hundreds of millions......
No matter how disgusting the subject matter and finished film, as long as the last film is made, one will be earned, although the credibility and potential of the Huaxia Film Market have been repeatedly overdrawn, but what do investors care about?
In their eyes, they only see that Huaxia Film and Television only makes money and does not lose money, which is much more reliable than the stock market and the real estate market.
Hollywood is different, and it is not uncommon for fierce market competition to lead to big investments.
It's not new for James Cameron to just make a "Terminator", but he has been suspended many times because of insufficient investment.
What if you don't have a pair of eyes to see through the future? Find a big money owner to share the investment risk together, even if the film is popular in the end, you can admit it if you make a little less money.
It's better than investing alone and ending up in it, right?
If Caesar had figured this out, he wouldn't have been surprised why these Hollywood bigwigs had come unexpectedly.
It's like Lucas and Spielberg, why are they here? Let's not talk about investment, let's just say that if they invite Caesar, who has 100 million fans, to play any role in their film, what kind of box office will it be like?
Is the box office a problem with remaking any of Caesar's tens of millions of selling games into a movie?
Although they don't want to admit it, these people present must already face up to Caesar's current position in the entertainment industry. They had to come and had to come!
How can the entertainment industry be powerful? There are a lot of fans, and no matter how the opponent is dark, the fans always support you, and you have power!
Because the number of fans represents the amount of gold absorbed, there are naturally people at your disposal to attract gold.
The only problem is that many superstars who have been smeared and whose influence has not diminished have ended up dying very strangely. It's all a matter of another area, so let's not talk about it.
In this way, Caesar warmly greeted this wave of Hollywood celebrities in his underestimation of himself.
What surprised Caesar the most were the two old guys......
I've always heard that people are old and good, and Caesar didn't take it seriously, but today Clint Eastwood and Coppola both mentioned one thing when they were greeting Caesar:
That's when Caesar personally directs the film, and they can help.
Not to mention the status of these two in Hollywood, this is a great favor, and Caesar was shocked by these two keen insight and the ability to act first.
can't be a fool for others, as if they can't see that Caesar is quite a director, but no one has the momentum of these two uncles, and directly offered to help in person.
This is the typical character that determines fate, where does the prestige of these two in Hollywood come from, in addition to seniority, this kind of execution is probably the real reason.
After these big names entered, the rest didn't need to be greeted by Caesar himself. are all third-rate stars who come to mix with familiar faces, and even some who are not in the stream, between the "big health care technician" and the actor.
As for the police chief, mayors, legislators, governors and the like, they entered the market early and low-key.
This is not the China where high-ranking officials frequently appear on the scene, Los Angeles, where there are many voters who don't do and stare at politicians every day, and every photo is potential evidence of impeachment.
It stands to reason that Caesar is not enough to get these politicians so concerned, but unfortunately, the cooperation between Caesar and the Pentagon is no secret at this level.
Of course, how close the cooperation is and how good the relationship is, it is all made up by helping people make up their own brains.
In fact, Caesar grasped the weakness of a Pentagon, just like the blackwater did back then.
The Pentagon has long wanted to get a mercenary unit, except for the ultra-secret mission to Delta, and the other dirty work will be done by the mercenaries. It's a big deal, and if something happens, I'll dump the pot......
Of course, this has a kind of Ah Q spirit that as long as I close my eyes, it will be a dark sky, but it is better than the US military going into battle shirtless.
But! Can this job be given to Rockefeller or Morgan? Or the Bush family? Or even Rothschild?
How can it be! Let's not talk about whether the voters and the White House will do it or not, the Pentagon itself will not agree.
Let the big conglomerates in North America raise private armies? Is this really the Third Roman Reich? The person who proposed this plan was first pulled out and shot for five minutes.
I want to have a mercenary, and the military itself can't invest in it personally, and it can't let the big conglomerates reach out, so who pays for it and who does it?
In the previous life, Blackwater was done by a few veterans, because big conglomerates were not allowed to intervene, and in the absence of big financiers, they developed very slowly, and they developed little by little through loans and private security businesses.
Caesar in this life seized this opportunity because he had detailed records and analyses of his previous lives.
These California politicians don't know about it, so they think Caesar has a lot to do with the Pentagon.
Caesar unwittingly pulled the tiger skin of the Pentagon, which made California politicians pay great attention to him.
It is said that the military does not interfere in politics, but if the politician is so stupid that he does not take the military seriously, it is a hard wound in IQ.
With Columbia's CEO Joseph Baker accompanying the politicians in the box, Caesar went down to the front row of the first floor and pulled Bea and Bruce Willis to introduce Coppola and several of their big directors.
The production of Max Payne's version of "Die Hard" is already under negotiation, and when the seven giants decide a result, filming will start, and Caesar is busy giving the actor the most recommendation and publicity in the circle.
Holding the dignified Bea and the excited Bruce Willis, after a brief introduction, Caesar also made the two familiar faces in front of Hollywood celebrities, and it happened that the people in the theater had basically found a place to sit down.
Caesar took the two of them to sit down quickly, and then gestured to the theater manager, signaling for the lights to be turned off and the movie to be played.
This is the premiere that Caesar and Columbia have negotiated, and the virtual things will be talked about after the movie is over, and the dry goods will be served first.
It wasn't the first time Bea had seen a finished film, but she was still nervously holding Caesar's hand as she sat on Caesar's left, and Caesar gently patted the back of her hand to let her relax.
But his eyes never took his eyes off the big screen for a moment.
After the opening of Columbia's "Woman with a Torch", along with the appearance of the picture of cosmic space, Caesar's thoughts seemed to cross time and space, and returned to the time when Huaxia watched "Angels in the World" for the first time in the cinema in his previous life.
Grabbing Bea's warm little hand in his hand, looking at the images on the screen, memories of his past life flashing in his mind, and with this excitement and confusion, Caesar began his unique pilgrimage to the goddess of his past life.
[Ask for a ticket! Collect! That's how brazen it is......]
