Chapter 14: Hitting the muzzle

It's not easy for newcomers, so ask for collection recommendations.

In Hollywood, there aren't many things that are really secret, except for people like Kaisa who have been reborn and have to control the secret that he can't talk in his dreams. Including the later death of Li Guohao, it is not a secret in the small circle.

Caesar's three scripts of "Alien", "Groundhog Day" and "Time and Space Heroes", as well as the naming of Bruce Lee as the starring role, became known to everyone in a short period of time.

Because there was no Internet, reporters needed a reaction time, so no reporters followed Caesar and Bruce Lee's car that day.

It's a pity that just after dawn on the third day, the Li family's mansion, located in the wealthy area at the foot of Beverly Hills, was surrounded by a group of reporters not far away.

What kind of school are you going to? Elizabeth had to call her teacher to help Caesar take a leave of absence.

This can make Caesar beautiful, sleep lazy!

Although the change in his physique allows him not to sleep, the fact that his body is not tired or sleepy does not mean that his spirit will not be tired.

No one shouted to get up, and Caesar slept until noon, staring at the "People" magazine deliberately placed on top of a pile of newspapers at the head of the bed, and Caesar remembered in a trance that this was a famous gossip magazine disguised as a tall one.

I looked at the cover, I didn't have myself, I opened it and looked at the catalog, there was really an article about myself, no wonder it was placed in the most conspicuous place.

The article begins with a customary introduction to Caesar, which focuses on the title of prodigy, from "Garfield" to "Transformers".

In particular, the anti-war metaphor in "Transformers" and the image of Megatron, whose helmet resembles the steel helmet of the SS.

It is also said that the hero sees something similar, judging from the leaked stills of Lucas's unreleased "Star Wars", the villain also wears a helmet very similar to the SS.

Then when it comes to "Alien" and "Time and Space Heroes", although I haven't seen the script, since NBC not only helps match "Alien" but also plans to invest, it must be worth looking forward to.

Finally, he said that "Groundhog Day" was as Caesar expected.

"Although I haven't seen the three scripts because of the confidentiality agreement signed by both parties, according to the content that can be revealed outside the insider's agreement, the plot of "Groundhog Day" has enough weight, about the psychological description and emotional description of adults.

At this point, I can't help but ask, prodigies are indeed precocious, but are they precocious enough to understand the love between men and women before the age of eight? ”

"Those genius ideas, those twists and turns of the story can be genius at work, can it be that the emotional description that can move the investor is also genius at work?

Or is the prodigy Caesar not only a creative genius but also a natural lover?

If not, how can an eight-year-old understand the complex emotional entanglements of adult men and women?

Can we make a bold assumption, mind you, I mean hypothetical, what if someone else created this qiē? What if the so-called prodigy is just a gimmick, just a tool for someone or someone to push to the foreground to collect money?

I know this assumption is too much and is likely to hurt an innocent child, but isn't it more important to find out who is behind it? ”

"I hope that people who read this article will think carefully when they appreciate Garfield and Transformers, we are all rational people, and don't blindly believe that intelligent people can't be deceived like monkeys and stupid pigs."

"It's a crime!"

People magazine's "Celebrity Reviews" columnist ------ Pete Walker.

This "People" should have only been published for more than a year, and it was precisely when it was looking for topics everywhere and even deliberately creating topics in order to increase sales.

I'm hitting the muzzle of a gun!

Caesar smiled wryly and threw down "People" and picked up the "Los Angeles Times" subconsciously flipping through it, and began to think quickly in his head.

"Groundhog Day" will definitely attract doubts, which he was mentally prepared for when he handed over the script, but he didn't expect this question to come too quickly.

The script was not leaked at all, and someone grabbed it just by releasing a little shadow.

Knowing this result, Caesar had to do the same. He was really short of money, a lot of money.

Those who follow the history of the gaming industry will know that Atari Shock is just around the corner!

(What exactly is "Atari Impact", the detailed information is at least more than 10,000 words, type enter, Du Niang will give you the answer within five seconds, don't cheat the word count here.) )

To put it simply, it is a service platform that does not pay attention to the content provided and the ecological maintenance of the platform, and is eventually abandoned or even hated by consumers on the platform.

A classic, failed marketing case.

This also provides a reason and excuse for Nintendo to be picky about third-party game providers and even squeeze third-party game providers after the launch of FC.

Even later Apple mobile phones are the same, if you want to release an app on Apple mobile phones, you have to go through all kinds of picky and review. Apps that are too junky, which are considered to reduce Apple's brand value, will definitely not be guò.

This is all because of the warning effect of the "Atari shock" on related industries.

Nintendo has a lot of fans, but in the 80s and 90s, Nintendo was a god in the industry.

As soon as Sega and Sony's consoles appeared, a large number of third parties defected, although Sega eventually played itself badly, but Nintendo's hegemony was not held after all. As a result, the console market is now a three-legged situation of Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo.

Caesar was in such a hurry mainly because although the "Atari Shock" began in 1983, in fact, if you look closely, you will find that in 1982, Atari was defeated.

Caesar's plan was not to let Nintendo develop, this company is too terrible. Any game company that wants to rise during this time period will not be able to bypass Nintendo.

Since you can't get around it, use playbox to nip it in the bud.

Caesar has long planned that his IT industry will crush the industry by a generational gap, that is, three years.

Why three years? This is not Moore's Law, not the so-called generation difference that doubles in 18 months.

The three-year difference Caesar refers to is the "old yellow" law, or graphics card's law.

Huang Jenxun, the Chinese boss of Nvidia's graphics card, is nicknamed "Lao Huang" by players.

Console players can't feel it, PC players spend their own money to build a machine, no matter how much CPU and memory are in vain, as long as three years, if you can't replace the latest in the third year, the latest mainstream graphics card on the graphics card ladder diagram, you will find that the new 3A-level game masterpiece, your PC can't run with full special effects.

For example, for example, the annual New Year's goods series "Call of Duty".

Throwing out the fever players who have tens of thousands of yuan are not counted, let's just say that mainstream graphics card players, if you saved a machine two years ago, playing the recently launched "Call of Duty", you will find that the full special effects card can't be played at all, even if you can barely play after reducing the special effects, but you must pay the price of reducing the enjoyment of the game.

Even when the screenshot of the screen comes out, you will find that compared to the mainstream configuration players, you are not playing the same game at all.

This is the law of "Lao Huang", or the law of graphics card update spawned by triple-A game masterpieces.

Caesar wants to meddle in the game industry in his life, so the most effective way to squeeze the opponent's living space is to crush the generation gap.

When you were still working on Pac-Man, games like Contra and Adventure Island were on sale on my side.

Caesar is forcing the host platform providers to follow in their own footsteps, and if they can't keep up, please leave the market.

Because of the Playbox, Caesar can bring everything to market three years or more earlier.

With the information of the future, he felt that he could use special energy to combine some of the materials that can be used now to make different "mother machines", and then use the "mother machines" to make production lines.

Materials science can't keep up, and you can develop it according to future data, but if you can't do it, you can use special energy to catalyze some materials like manufacturing a "mother machine".

However, although the cost of manufacturing a CPU is very low, or even pitifully low, the research and construction of the production line is astronomical.

Intel built a production line capable of producing 45-nanometer core core quad-core chips that year, with a total investment of about $4 billion. And that's not even counting the investment in R&D.

According to the financial report, from 2005 to 2010, Intel spent at least $7 billion a year on chip research and development.

Even if Caesar does not compete directly with Intel, does not spread out its product line, does not take into account ordinary commercial and military-grade products, or even only develops special hardware for its own game consoles, handhelds and gaming phones, the funds required are still in the hundreds of millions of dollars.

In order to crush Nintendo, in order to achieve the launch of the first generation of game consoles in 1980, Caesar will take risks and come up with a few scripts to test the waters.

Sure enough, the former cheap husband Qian Qianyi said it well: the water is too cold......

As the old saying goes, if you are in a hurry for quick success, someone will start spraying in just one "Groundhog Day".

Thinking wildly, Caesar reached out and picked up the phone on the bedside and dialed his uncle Li Yu.
