Chapter 177: It's on Fire! And really going to Staples!
Luo Yaoxiang has walked around in Asia, although he is mainly active in Southeast Asia, but he has really gained a lot of popularity, and it is a big news in itself that a Chinese person starred in an American blockbuster this year.
Treasure Island also made him make another Luo Yaoxiang craze, but Treasure Island, there is always a bit of an insider's saying, such as someone finding fault.
"Luo Yaoxiang, this guy's artistic virtue is problematic! What was he doing when the earthquake last year? Why didn't you perform for Taiwan? Did he make any donations? ”
"That's right! Obviously not a person who loves Taiwan! ”
There is no way, this can be seen as a counterattack after the Treasure Island media was pumped too hard, of course, there are also those who can see it clearly.
"At that time, Luo Yaoxiang was scolded by you and wanted to go to prison, right?"
"Some people are like this, and when they see who is going to fail, they quickly kick their feet......"
To be honest, Luo Yaoxiang was really powerless about the 921 incident, and he was really shocked when he heard the news, and the most strange reaction was Wu Shujuan at that time, this woman didn't care at all.
The reason is also very simple, we are from Taipei, what do you care about in the south? What to donate, isn't it better to eat yourself?
Luo Yaoxiang really couldn't imagine that it was just an island, and it was so clear that the north and the south were separated, hey~
The trip to Asia is over, and when Luo Yaoxiang came back, he received a lot of phone calls and condolences, mainly from 20th Century Fox, because his Luo Yaoxiang's publicity effect was too good!
And the most substantially beneficial call, that is Brian. Singh's, the young director of the family said that the next part of "X-Men", and even the next part, will find you Luo Yaoxiang to shoot it!
This thing...... That's good, but what X-MEN will you play when the time comes? The toad is done with calves, huh?
Forget it, this matter still doesn't add up.
The movie "X-Men" is an excellent performance in Asia. And in North America, it is also very surprising, unexpectedly good!
won the North American box office list of the week in a row, and finally ranked at the top of the box office list of the whole year with a box office of nearly 180 million!
At present, it is fourth, only worse than "Gladiator", "Mission Impossible 2", "Desert Island Aftermath" and other blockbusters, which really makes Twentieth Century Fox overjoyed.
“…… Clint. Law helped us a lot with the film, he gave us a lot of new ideas to make the action scenes look even better, and. He's actually a stand-in for Wolverine, I don't know if fans can see it, haha......"
Brian. Singh is happy, so naturally a lot of things can be said, this guy released this little secret when he was interviewed.
In fact, this topic has been discussed a lot on the Internet, because American fans feel that this "X-Men" seems to be in the style of an oriental kung fu movie.
Singh's words. That just adds fuel to the fire......
"Wow! Is there another kung fu superstar to be born? ”
"I really didn't expect this Clint. Luo can not only act in movies, not only sing rock and roll, but also kung fu! ”
"See. Versatility is a blessing, okay, I'll go back and enroll my child in a class and learn kung fu......"
This time. Luo Yaoxiang is even more popular, there is simply a trend of a group of die-hard fans, and some people even really go to learn kung fu. brought up a little bit of kung fu craze......
But in fact, the reason why Singh said this is to advertise the release of "X-Men", there are shooting tidbits in the disc version, this guy is very damaged, and the focus is on how Luo Yaoxiang abused Uncle Wolf, which is very funny......
In 2000, the biggest event in the United States was the Internet bubble, because the bursting of this bubble was really scary, and everyone was worried about whether the economy would recession.
In fact, the entire U.S. economy is actually betting on the Internet and the resulting wave of high-tech, which is obviously a new industry that has changed everyone's lives and a new economic growth point.
But in just a few months, a website suddenly appeared, and the number of registrations on this website has almost been showing a state of explosion, from hundreds and thousands at the beginning, to millions of users in just a few months, which is a miracle!
"A very secretive site...... Well, I'm sure everyone knows about it, and many people are spreading that this site has a lot of special features, such as...... Oh, sorry, my stuff dropped. ”
The host of the talk show, this guy was talking, and then accidentally fell out of a sleeve......
Okay, these Yankees can joke about everything, but what people say about this is also true, the biggest advantage of Facebook now is that it can be easily snapped.
"FACEBOOK'S POPULARITY NOW CAN BE COMPARED TO YAHOO BACK THEN, WHICH IS SIMPLY AMAZING."
And the average TV news, that's much better, but it's not ......
"I think there is a big problem with this website, why do they want to promote YIN?"
"YIN? Oh, you mean you can make friends and go to a hotel or somewhere else? ”
There is no way, each flower has its own eyes, and some people just think that Facebook is simply a big rebellion.
But to say, Facebook is indeed a relatively new thing, it is really an innovation, you can post photos on it, you can share various moods, it is very good...... As for popping, it's actually an incidental product, right?
Well, because of this, Luo Yaoxiang has set a restriction on registration, that is, only those over 13 years old can do it.
Luo Yaoxiang is also conscientious enough, there are not many conscientious companies in the United States, but Lenovo hasn't come yet, right?
But but, of course, there will be a lot of curious people, they will find all kinds of channels, borrow or something, go on Facebook to play, find hot girls, even if they can't really snap, but it's good to chat.
In fact, this is a Facebook promotion model that Luo Yaoxiang adheres to, age is a limit, and the other is a regional restriction, such as at the beginning only Stanford students can register, and then it was promoted to major schools in California, and then later. Luo Yaoxiang said, let's try to promote it in schools, especially universities, that is, according to the email suffix of each university, so as to do it, which is good.
In fact, this is to maintain the social nature of Facebook, because everyone is one piece, so that substantive communication can be formed, so that the advantages of Facebook can be reflected.
Other than that. That's using music to make a sign, and we've already played a distinctly hard metal rock style, which is good.
You know, this is complementary, because college students, even if they are the kind of people who come to mix, but people in this period, everyone has that kind of personality and maverick. Plainly...... It's a little bit of a middle two, but it's just a bit more forced.
So, how good is the style of rock and roll, which coincides with the mentality of college students. In fact, those who like rock and roll are more college students.
As a result, they complement each other so well, and Luo Yaoxiang still vigorously invests funds. Our Facebook is much faster than Zuckerberg's!
Luo Yaoxiang watched that movie, Zuckerberg at the beginning. In fact, it is not particularly popular, and it is actually quite slow to spread, and now Luo Yaoxiang basically avoided the mistakes made by Zuckerberg, and he also made some innovations of his own.
Facebook, it's really a big hit!
Now that it's a fire, there are some problems......
"In this way, in the future, you, Zhang Lin is the founder of Facebook, anyway, it's a big event, on TV or something, you go, you go, that's it." This is Luo Yaoxiang talking, but this is what he said.
At this time, in the base camp of Facebook, Luo Yaoxiang was anxious about everyone, that is, Zhang Lin and them, of course, and Lao Ke.
What are we all doing here?
In fact, it is very simple, that is, Luo Yaoxiang wants to come to seclusion behind the scenes, and he found that this Facebook is too popular now, and there may be a lot of various interviews in the future, and he doesn't want to show up because of this.
But......
"Didn't anyone interview you before, and that concert said you did it." That Zhang Lin is not a fool either, he gets to the point.
"That's a concert, not Facebook, you can say it to the outside world, we're doing it jointly, I'm doing a concert, and all kinds of other things, but I won't touch Facebook for the time being." Luo Yaoxiang is quite sincere.
It seems that he really has a little truth in saying that.
"I said, Lao Luo, why do you have to cover up this matter?" Lao Ke couldn't stand it anymore.
Luo Yaoxiang replied simply, "Time, how can I have so much time!" ”
This one...... It should be said that the reason Luo Yaoxiang said is indeed like this, but his real purpose is......
Let's go to the entertainment industry!
To put it simply, Luo Yaoxiang doesn't want to put too much energy into this Facebook. Everyone knows that Facebook is indeed making money, definitely more profitable than Luo Yaoxiang in the entertainment industry and making movies in Hollywood, but ......
Luo Yaoxiang himself doesn't understand this kind of IT company management problems, what he knows is actually a movie, he just watched that Zuckerberg movie, that's all, what else will he do?
You asked him to write a code?
Isn't that?
Therefore, Luo Yaoxiang actually doesn't understand, since he doesn't understand, then he should be less involved, and he might as well be an investor...... Hey, hey, hey, anyway, the biggest shareholder of Facebook now is him Luo Yaoxiang, so the future development, find someone who knows how to do it, and then make Facebook bigger, how good is that?
yes, that's how awesome it is to wait and count the money yourself, and you don't have to work!
Besides, I'm not good at acting and singing, so why don't you arrange your time based on your own interests?
Luo Yaoxiang made this decision, others really can't understand it, but it is definitely the best for him.
"In the future, you will do a good job, as for the introduction of angel venture capital or something, it is okay, but, you know, we can hold on for a little longer, just hold on for a little longer......" Luo Yaoxiang is very irresponsible and acts as a shopkeeper.
To put it simply, if you don't understand, don't care, you do it, I'll count the money......
However, this aspect can be ignored, but there is something that Luo Yaoxiang definitely has to take care of, and that is our concert!
At this time, the NBA is over, and Staples is not so busy!
"What? Linkin Park and 30 seconds to Mars for a concert in Staples? ”
"Wow! It's just so cool! ”
"This ...... I used to hear it called Clint. Luo's guy, he just shouted at the TV like this, but can it come true so quickly? ”
"Well, did you think that Linkin Park and 30 seconds to Mars, they haven't released a disc yet, and they have a concert in Staples without a disc, isn't it weird?"
"Hahaha! It's weird, but it's weird! I want to sell tickets! ”
There was a lot of talk about the concert on the Internet, not only on Facebook, but also on other websites and MSN.
It's really strange to talk about this, because the two bands don't release discs, and they can go to Staples, although their current income mainly comes from concerts, but this is also too strange!
"MR Zhang, can you tell us how you came up with the idea of starting a website like Facebook in the first place?"
"This ...... That ......"
As Luo Yaoxiang requested, it will be Zhang Lin who will come forward for Facebook in the future, and this Chinese, he is very restrained in front of the camera.
But in fact, he didn't think about this problem at all, and he didn't know what Luo Yaoxiang thought at the beginning!
But the host won't let him go, "Isn't it because of loneliness?" You know, if I'm lonely, I'll go online, especially to find someone of the opposite sex. ”
This host's face is quite sai.
"Well, there was this consideration at the beginning, but, hahaha......" Zhang Lin is much worse than Luo Yaoxiang.
Fortunately, after the embarrassment, just kidding, this interview still turned to the concert.
"MR Zhang, can you tell us about the concert you're going to be holding in Staples? You know, it's one of the best arenas in the country, and it's amazing how quickly you've been able to get up and running. ”
Hey, this topic is good, but this thing can be done......
It's because of the money!
In a venue like Staples, if it is full, then the overall sales amount, not counting other consumption, such as snacks or something, is about 6 million dollars!
So, how can you impress Staples and the Lakers?
The Lakers actually own a stake......
It's very simple, Luo Yaoxiang took out a deposit of 500,000 US dollars, if the ticket sales are not good, such as less than half, then Luo Yaoxiang will lose the 500,000!
Definitely a big gamble! (To be continued.) )
PS: Thank you! Thank you very much!
Black car is here to wish everyone a happy Chinese New Year in advance!
