Chapter 196: Time Magazine 2

"Ryan? Jenkins, who grew up under the gaze of almost the world, is still growing today. However, as he himself said - God gave you a pearl and will definitely take you a diamond - he showed extraordinary artistic talent and attainment, but also showed a bad side. ”

"Ryan is known to be allergic to alcohol, not adapted to the cold environment, too fond of pranks and jokes, and has tried several times to invest in business, but has been criticized for not having enough business talent, even today, by him and Nicole? Kidman, Pie? Kingsley and Scott? Jenkins Films, co-founded by Swift, is still actually controlled by Nicole? Kidman. ”

"However, is this the truth?"

In 1993, due to Ryan's strong request, the foundation under his name successively spent huge sums of money to acquire Blizzard Entertainment, Pixar Studios and Blue Sky Studios, and invested $150 million in Paramount Pictures. Kidman became a member of the board of directors of a top film company. ”

"Was Ryan's investment really bad at the beginning? Let's see how these companies are developing now! ”

"Blizzard Entertainment's predecessor was called 'Silicon & Neural Bonds' studio, and when Ryan bought it, there were only a dozen employees, but after he injected capital, the renamed game development company showed extraordinary vitality, they got the authorization of Ryan's "Warcraft" series of stories, and used this as the background setting to develop the "Warcraft" real-time strategy game, which sold more than two million copies worldwide in less than two years, making the entire game industry look sideways, and Ryan's original investment has received a huge return! It is reported that Microsoft once offered him $100 million to buy Blizzard Entertainment, but he refused. ”

"Our focus is on Pixar Studios, an animation studio in Richmond, California, that may be unfamiliar to you. But "Toy Story", which was released last Christmas, must have been seen by many people, which is a fully computerized 3D animated film adapted from the story of the same name in "Ryan's Tales", and its production company is Pixar! ”

"Now that the North American box office of "Toy Story" is rushing towards $250 million, it is inevitable to win the top spot at the North American box office in '95, just after the first week of the movie's release, Pixar was officially launched, and in just a few days, its stock price has risen from $22 at the opening to $55, and it is still rising. Another myth in the IT world! ”

In 1993, Ryan graduated from Steve? Jobs spent $50 million when he bought Pixar, which was ridiculed by many people, but now the $50 million has brought Ryan a net worth of more than $1 billion, not only has he become the richest among his peers, but even his sister Nicole? Kidman, with not too many shares in his hand, has become a billionaire woman! ”

"Even though Blue Sky Studio can barely make ends meet, these three investment projects have been a huge success!"

"Of course. A lot of people are still waiting to see Ryan? Jenkins stumbled, waiting to see the joke of his failed investment. ”

Because in 1994 and 1995, he successively invested a considerable amount of money with David? Ferro and Jerry? Yang is two nobodies. He founded an Internet company called Yahoo and became the second largest shareholder, but in '95, the company's turnover was only a measly $1.3 million. With an actual loss of $630,000, Ryan once again gave others an excuse to criticize his business talents......

There's also the giant model ship built off the coast of Mexico and several makeshift studios, in which Jenkins Films invested $100 million. The joint Paramount, Miramax and Twentieth Century Fox billed a huge production cost of $220 million, and two years later, the movie still shows no signs of starting, leaving many people wondering, Ryan? Jenkins is likely to suffer an unprecedented and huge failure in the movie, losing all his years of fame! ”

"What's more, after Jenkins Films acquired Carlock Films, it actually began to recruit screenwriters on a large scale and set up a team of screenwriters for Ryan, wanting to turn his endless ideas and ideas into qualified scripts. Jenkins will be completely reduced to a Hollywood assembly line. ”

"But is that really going to happen? We caught up with James, who is working with Ryan again? Cameron, he said, 'We are strict with the details of "Titanic" to the extreme, and the long preparation will inevitably bring a perfect movie! ’”

"James? Cameron is so confident, like all with Ryan? Jenkins works with the same people. ”

"'They're right, Ryan isn't good at specifics, but when it comes to investing in movies, he's always had an amazing instinct that he's failed before? No! So don't say I'm not doing my duty, because I trust Ryan completely! 'This is when talking about investing, Nicole? Miss Kidman's exact words. ”

"As Ryan wrote in his essay, some people always look at the world with malice and question what can be questioned, but no matter what they say or do, fearless achievers will continue to succeed!"

"The topic goes back to the beginning, Ryan has lived in seclusion for the past two years, where has he gone and what is he doing? Last year, he went to Africa with Her Royal Highness the Princess of Wales to carry out charitable aid, but it was a secret operation, and apart from his works, there has been very little news about him in the past two years. ”

"To that end, we interviewed Ryan's best friend, Natalie? Miss Portman, she told us something that was still 'secret' - Ryan put all his energy into his studies besides his creations, and he wanted to finish his middle school course as best he could. ”

"We visited, and as Miss Natalie said, Ryan hired several tutors and started taking classes in grades 7-12 starting in '94, and last year, he had already taken the SAT in several subjects — even if it wasn't stellar — and there was definite news that he would be applying to USC Film School this summer."

"It can be seen that Ryan has never been complacent about his achievements, and he is still enriching himself on the road to success, if such people can't succeed, then what kind of people will succeed?"

"In our opinion, Ryan has two people in his soul, one is the successful man in the White Tower. noble and humble, but always facing the flower of sin poured out of black blood, and evil dark wizards will crawl out of it, trying to drag him into a sinking hell; The other is a brave and hard-working knight, who rises from the bottom, overcomes all the obstacles and is invincible, cleanly kills all the dark wizards, and goes further and further in the direction of success. ”

Just when we were focusing on Ryan's halo as the No. 1 child star in Hollywood, he quietly completed another metamorphosis. Cameron, George? Lucas and Stephen? Spielberg and other big directors and big productions are good friends. Can you talk to Ron? Meyer and Shirley? ...... a film magnate at the helm of a film magnate like Lansing drinks tea and chats, and before he knows it, he has become one of Hollywood's most powerful figures. ”

However, two years later, apart from his name, it is difficult for us to find him in the media, is it really like some people say, Ryan? Jenkins wants to go completely behind the scenes? ”

"Two years is enough time to change a lot of things. can make a teenager grow up, how many people can remember Ryan today? Jenkins' image on the big screen? Even his closest two people, Nicole? Kidman and Natalie? Portman is constantly choosing the right role, but he doesn't know ......"

"He's coming up with new ideas and scripts. Whether we're writing the next novel, or playing and singing to ourselves, we don't know. Even, we don't know if he is still in Los Angeles or in Hollywood. ”

"'We love all of his work. His films, his novels, his music, his essays and funny stories, but two years later, Ryan is sixteen years old, and we don't know what he has become. We know he's working hard for his studies, and we appreciate Ryan's spirit and attitude, but he always has to show up, right? You want us to see what you've grown up like, right? Even if you are not as handsome and cute as you were when you were a child, we will still firmly support you! That's what one of Ryan's support club leaders said. ”

"'Frankly, we want to get a picture of him too, you know? After Pixar went public, my editor-in-chief was Ryan? Jenkins' latest photo offered a $200,000 bounty, and we stood guard day and night in front of his house, except for Nicole? Outside of Kidman, we don't get any valuable news, and we suspect that Ryan has left Los Angeles after taking the SAT test, but his London counterpart outside their villa in Kensington has also gained nothing, and we would like to know exactly where he went. This is the emotion of the entertainment peers. ”

"'We'd love to ask him to talk about his investment decisions and feelings, and if we could, it would be even better if we did, do you think a billion dollars is his real net worth? I can assure you, that's definitely not, I have quite a few friends on Wall Street who know Scott? Swift has made a lot of money from his investments in recent years, and the foundation of the control zhì holds a lot of bullish stocks. Jenkins and Nicole? Kidman, their real net worth is far more than you estimate in the entertainment industry. The above remarks come from a senior editor-in-chief of Fortune magazine. ”

"From fans to journalists, from the media industry to the financial industry, from the entertainment industry to the IT industry, many people are looking for that teenager."

"He is a guarantee of the box office of the movie, a synonym for success and hard work, the owner of great wealth, the darling of Lady Luck, the most precious gift God has given to America, and he is Ryan? Jenkins! ”

"Ryan? Where exactly did Jenkins go? ”

The editorial office of Time Magazine naturally knew about Ryan? Where Jenkins went, this particular report is the result of communication between the two sides, and it is in the interests of both sides to attract the reader's attention with such a unique perspective, and win-win is always the last word.

So where the hell is Ryan? (To be continued......)
