1989 Pokemon

Paramount unexpectedly became the biggest winner of the entire Golden Dragon Awards, because Paramount's "Truman's World" and "Saving Private Ryan" have won many awards, and finally there are two awards for Best Director and Best Picture.

Paramount did not hesitate to put all the bonuses of $100 million from "Truman's World" into his own account, and did not share anything with the crew.

Even the 30 million prize for Best Actor won by Jim Carrey, Paramount was cheeky enough to ask for 15 million.

As for the prize money for "Saving the Soldiers", because it is a film co-produced by Pearsberg's DreamWorks and Paramount, and it is also the best director award, Paramount has no face to ask for money, but Spielberg took the initiative to give Paramount a bonus of 10 million.

This, combined with the prize money from other awards, brings Paramount's earnings from the Finance Awards alone to $140 million.

Soon after, after the '98 earnings report was announced, Paramount made a profit of $60 million, and the stock price skyrocketed a lot, making other film companies envious.

Looking at the Golden Dragon Awards, the vision is even hotter, and I can't wait for the next big winner to be myself, after all, the prize money of the Golden Dragon Awards has exceeded the box office of many film companies in a year.

In particular, many small film companies have surpassed all their box office share by relying on bonuses alone, and they have made a lot of money overnight.

Therefore, after the awards ceremony, almost all the senior executives of film companies took the initiative to find the senior management of Daqian Film to show their goodwill. Soon, the CEOs of various film companies also called Boss Jia one after another to congratulate the success of the Golden Dragon Awards.

At the same time, they promised on the phone that in the future, all their artists and movies will definitely participate in the Golden Dragon Awards every year, and they will not miss a year, and at the same time, they will almost toute the Golden Dragon Award as the first award in the world.

As for the original Oscar, no one cares at all.

According to the final statistics, more than 70% of all the bonuses awarded this time were divided by various film companies, and very few actually fell into the hands of the crew members.

Especially in "Truman's World", except for Jim Carrey, who took 10 million from his remaining 15 million bonuses and distributed them to other members of the crew, the rest of the bonuses were all withheld by the film company.

Only Daqian himself awarded the bonus to his crew, Daqian didn't take a single point, and all of them were equally distributed to all members of the crew.

As a result, filmmakers all over Hollywood are greatly moved by Daqian and envious of Daqian's employees, and many film newcomers put their first goal of submitting their resumes to Daqian.

Even many veteran filmmakers, after the expiration of their contracts, have also chosen to leave their original companies and join Daqian Films, which has greatly expanded the strength of Daqian Films.

Of course, this has caused a lot of dissatisfaction among Hollywood studios, but the problem is that even if they know what the problem is, they can't solve it, because they can't divide all the prize money equally among the crew.

And they didn't dare to go to Daqian's trouble, otherwise what if Daqian's Golden Dragon Award directly rejected their movie?

Anyway, this is a big conspiracy, even if a bigger film company can see through it, there is no way, and it has to hold and support Daqian.

The price is that Daqian has to throw out hundreds of millions of dollars almost every year, which is naturally a loss from the current point of view, but in the long run, it is not good.

This year's Highest Achievement Award was not awarded, but it is normal, the Highest Achievement Award is not fixed, but must wait until an outstanding film is released.

In the end, along with the music, the second Golden Dragon Awards came to an end, and the entire Hollywood also underwent a silent change internally.

However, it is worth mentioning that at the end of the Golden Dragon Awards, Nintendo announced almost at the same time that they will release a game "Pokemon" designed by the creator of "Pokemon" and the game genius Tajiri Tomo, which has more than 200 cute pets carefully designed by Tajiri Tomo, as well as richer game content.

Nintendo almost said directly in the promotional copy that this is a spiritual sequel to "Pokemon", which is more fun than the previous work.

And this time Nintendo has invested a lot of money, almost at the same time as the release of "Pokémon", it was announced that the TV animation of the same name of "Pokémon" will be broadcast worldwide.

This made countless Nintendo fans cheer instantly, but there was also a murmur among players, just by listening to the name, you can know that this Pokemon is probably a game similar to Pokemon, is this a hint of plagiarism?

Of course, Arita Shirichi, the founder of Pokemon, exists, and plagiarism or anything doesn't seem to count. Anyway, players are like this, they are very strict about plagiarism in games, but they don't recognize people and companies.

As long as it is a game developed by the so-called founder, it is definitely not plagiarism, is copying your own still plagiarism?

This is also the reason why Nintendo is desperately trying to get Tajiri Chi, and at the same time giving Tajiri Chi all the conveniences and high-paying solicitations, in order to come out with a similar game of Pokemon and not be criticized by players.

And this Pokemon will naturally not have any quality problems when it is carefully made by Nintendo, whether it is the quality of the game, Bugs, or the gameplay and art of the game, it is all of the highest quality, even Boss Jia couldn't help but play for a while after getting this game, and then praised it.

Nintendo's calculations proved to be quite good, and after the launch of "Pokémon", the GBA version sold 1.2 million copies, breaking the sales record in the first month since the release of the GBA, and it was also a double data break.

However, with the record-breaking sales of "Pokémon", a new problem was placed in front of Nintendo, that is, whether to launch a version of the Thousand Changes.

Nintendo's GBA,A year earlier than in history.,It came out in the middle of 97.,And there are thousands of machines to change this Zhu Yu.,GBA's all-round configuration is also stronger than that of GBA in another world.,At least it's not much worse than a thousand machines.。

With the aftermath of GB, GBA's sales volume has also sold nearly 10 million units in one year.

In the eyes of many game companies, this result is almost miraculous, but in the eyes of Nintendo, it is extremely bad.

Originally, according to their plan, as an upgraded version of GB, with a record of nearly 200 million GB sold worldwide, GBA had to sell 30 million units in the first year of its launch.

After all, the first year is the golden age for the sale of a console, and as time goes on, the rate of purchase will become less and less. If we don't exceed 30 million units in the first year, we won't be able to sell 60 million units in the next five years.

As a result, GBA came up with sales figures of 10 million units, which made Nintendo's face crackle.
