"What? Do you still want me to be involved in the company's operations? ”

Roland looked at them with smiling eyes, and said in a mocking tone: "I know what you guys are thinking, think that my behavior of calling parents last time was a bit excessive, right?" Special Events! I apologize~"

"No, no, no~" Hearing this, the two waved their hands again and again, and said: "Last time, it was because the news was not equal, so there was a misunderstanding, you think of a way to eliminate the misunderstanding, of course this is no problem!" ”

"We just don't want the Infoseek tragedy to happen to us again, so ask more......"

"Yes, one more question......"

The cautious answer made Roland's facial features laugh, where did he not understand what these two guys meant?

Isn't it just that I'm worried that Shouwang Venture Capital will take a stake in Google?

Although Roland is a well-known shopkeeper in the circle, he does show a stronger desire to control than anyone else in the matter of stuffing money to Google, and it is precisely because of personal experience that the two are worried.

And the concerns they showed also made Roland curious, "The three of them, how did they block you?" ”

As soon as they heard Roland mention this, their faces suddenly darkened.

After confirming that Roland was indeed not knowingly asking, they poured bitter water and complained to Roland about the bullying behavior of the Blizzard Triumvirate, "At the beginning, we still lived in the school dormitory, but the entrepreneurial base was rented outside, so we had to go back and forth every day. ”

"During the commute, we can see them at the school gate and outside the venue every day."

"Once or twice, it doesn't matter, three or four times, it's a little annoying, and if you see it every day......"

"Then no one can bear it!"

"So, after completing the formalities at the school, we moved out."

"In order to avoid their intrusion, we also deliberately asked others to rent a house for us."

"But even so, they found it!"

"Now that we've left the school, they don't have to worry about being chased away by the school police, so they go straight to the door!"

"And then ......"

"We don't have to prepare an alarm clock for the morning, we don't have to buy breakfast, someone brings it for lunch, and the chef cooks it for dinner, and we have coffee for overtime...... It's even more wrapped up by them! ”

"Although this kind of life is good, we are really afraid!"

Speaking of this, they even imitated their original state and sighed sadly.

"Oh~~~"

Roland, on the other hand, reversed his tone and squinted with a smile.

The three guys who co-authored it were by endorsing Dabao that they helped themselves win Google!

Meticulous care and punctual greetings, isn't it - 'the truth will never change, Dabao will see you every day'!

To be honest, if someone treats him like this, then Roland is also annoyed.

It is precisely because he can understand that after listening to their complaints, Roland solemnly assured them, "Don't worry, last time was just an accident, and in most cases, I will not interfere in the company's affairs like Disney." ”

"You don't have to worry about Google becoming Infoseek."

"Of course, if there is a situation where communication has to be communicated, then I will not give priority to the three of them!"

Sergey Brin and Larry Page were also very happy when they heard Roland's first half of the sentence.

But after hearing the second half of the sentence, their faces suddenly became embarrassed like Da Yao.

Don't prioritize them?

Doesn't that mean that in some cases, you're still going to let out a pigskin bully with a shameless behavior but a perfect attitude?

As for some of the cases, what are the specific situations?

Isn't that up to you?

Huh! Forget it!

Life is not easy, cats sigh!

…………

Although Roland did not experience that busy time, for Roland, the shameless and stubborn spirit of the Blizzard triumvirate is still worth encouraging, so after getting Google, he took a day between filming and flew to Irvine to fulfill the promise he made - to invite the three of them to dinner.

Because everyone is an old acquaintance who has known each other for almost ten years, it is easier to communicate with him.

After describing the depressed looks of Sergey Brin and Larry Page, a cheerful atmosphere rose in the box.

"The two of them are really difficult to communicate, and they used us as thieves at first." Alan Adhan complained.

That's why Mike thought of touching them with love. Frank Pearce nodded in agreement.

And after hearing the affectionate sand sculpture remarks of his companions, Mike Mohuaimi, who twitched at the corner of his mouth, suddenly waved his hand and said, "Roland, don't listen to their nonsense, we just couldn't contact them at first, so we chose a stupid way to wait!" ”

"As for love?" Speaking of which, Mike Mohuaimi directly set his sights on the other two.

"You know my sexuality, we've seen bikini babes together! But what ...... they?"

"Then I can't tell!"

As soon as these words came out, Alan Adhan looked at him angrily, "Mike, who are you talking about?" ”

"You're discriminating! Discrimination! Frank Pierce slapped the table as well.

Roland scratched his head and laughed, he liked this kind of amusing atmosphere regardless of his identity.

Of course, joy is rejoicing, and mistakes cannot be made.

After the three of them revealed their secrets to each other for a while, Roland interrupted: "Okay, okay, let's not talk about LGBT!" ”

"Now this topic is very sensitive, let's not touch it."

Although it is still more than ten years away from the general environment of supporting LGBT is politically correct, now the signs of not supporting it will be criticized have appeared, and the three people who understand the key will naturally not die, casually unveiled the topic and talked about the company.

In fact, after the release of Warcraft and StarCraft, Blizzard Entertainment was already on the right track, and the company's profits supported the development of other blockbusters, even if it was a continuous acquisition of studios with excellent results.

In this case, Roland no longer has to give random opinions like he told "Spider-Man", and because of this, he doesn't know anything about anything other than the game projects developed by Blizzard Entertainment itself.

Especially when the three guys told him that Blizzard Entertainment now also undertakes the distribution business of other small studios, Roland's face was really surprised, and when he learned that the distribution business of DreamWorks Interactive was also done by them......

The words of surprise blurted out, "Why don't I know about this?" ”

"Didn't Steven tell you?" The trio were also surprised.

"No! What's the situation? Roland looked confused.

DreamWorks Interactive, founded in 95, is a game company built by an old man.

Well, it's actually more like a peripheral development company.

Because since the creation of the company, the products they have developed are either "Goosebumps: Escape", a spin-off game of the TV series "Goosebumps", or "Chaos Island: The Lost World", a variant of the movie "Jurassic Park 2: The Lost World".

With the intention of 'just bad money' to make games, it is naturally impossible for them to lay a complete distribution channel.

As a result, it became a matter of course to find a publisher to distribute it on your behalf.

In addition, those games were originally going to make money, so the old man never mentioned this to Roland, let alone Blizzard Entertainment, because Blizzard Entertainment carried his dream!

He once extinguished his dream with his own hands, and if he did it again, how could he repeat it?

But last year, when he was at home on vacation after filming "Saving Private Ryan", he found that his son was playing the garbage "007: GoldenEye" there with a Nintendo's game console, and he thought I was even better, so he personally prepared a game.

After writing the game script and designing the game levels, he felt that he would definitely be popular, so he asked people to come to Blizzard Entertainment to discuss the release - this is actually very easy to understand, the work of making money, who you find to do, but to do practical things, you have to find people to do things.

Although even if he brought the garbage, the Blizzard triumvirate would look at Roland's face and help release it, but after the three of them read the game script written by the old man himself, they were full of admiration.

The guy who beeps is really a cow beep.

"So...... DreamWorks Interactive gave you the Medal of Honor? Hearing this, Roland smiled.

"Didn't you say you didn't know?" This time, it was the turn of the three of them to be confused.

"Ah~ He told me before that he wanted to make a first-person shooter, but he didn't say that he wanted to publish it with us."

How could Roland not know about the Medal of Honor?

When he made "Captain Hook" again, he was already thinking about the game company formed by the old man.

At the time, his goal was to make the team that would make Call of Duty and Battlefield.

And now......

Hi! It's not for nothing!

Although Roland never thought that DreamWorks Interactive would take the initiative to discuss the release of "Medal of Honor" with Blizzard Entertainment, he personally felt that the old man's choice was actually quite normal.

Because the chances of people encountering opportunities always increase with the improvement of status.

When Roland was poor and white, if he wanted to buy Blizzard, he had to rely on PY, if he wanted to vote for Yahoo, he had to rely on persecution, if he wanted to get a project, he had to ask for people, and all opportunities had to be created with his own hands.

But now, as long as he sits at home, the opportunity will come to his door.

Because the status is different!

When you are poor and white, who knows you?

Just like Jack Ma, the rich man of the people, whoever you look for will be treated as a liar!

But when his net worth swells to a certain point and he will be recognized wherever he goes, he has the right to question the attributes of other people!

When I go from begging to giver, the chances of encountering them increase exponentially!

Just as the entrepreneurs of America want Berkshire Hathaway's investment!

When all startups are eager to give their shares to Warren Buffett, and when all startups are proud to invite Warren Buffett - capital, it begins to snowball wildly!

What if you miss Amazon, what if you miss Google?

It's a pity, but no regrets.

Because I have more opportunities!

There are so many that I pick and choose casually, and my wealth is still skyrocketing!

…………

After inviting the Blizzard triumvirate to have a meal and thank them for their contributions to investing in Google, Roland, who was debt-free and light, returned to Los Angeles and made up for the remaining studio fight scenes from the movie with peace of mind.

In fact, as early as March 10th, all the scenes of "Spider-Man 2" have been completed, and in the afternoon of the same day, it entered the rough cutting link, and on the 20th, Industrial Light and Magic, the digital field and Weta Digital in New Zealand have begun to subcontract and rush to work, and after that, all the scenes left for the crew are the confrontation scenes of "Spider-Man 3".

Since the villains of "Spider-Man 3" are the little green goblin and the devil, Roland meets Leo and Bale every day, although the status of the three is different, Roland doesn't care about these things, and still gets along with them very happily.

Among them, of course, includes admiring Bell's figure.

Even though the shooting is very hard and the amount of exercise is very large, this legendary eraser man will still ensure normal training every day.

The orange tights belonging to the demon identity are worn on his body, and they can give people a muscular feeling without deliberately concave shape, and after seeing this situation...... Roland directly locked Kate in the house and didn't take it out.

Even if Kate is pure appreciation, that won't work!

There's no way, the face is a natural thing, but the body can be practiced by yourself.

Although Roland thinks that he is in good shape, compared to Bell, it is still a bit of a gap.

After all, he's just working out, not bodybuilding.

In the process of catching up with the schedule, on May 3, a huge tornado hit the central and western regions of America, and Oklahoma, Kansas, Tennessee, and Texas all suffered varying degrees of damage, and at least 55 people were killed in the incident, more than 500 people were missing, thousands of houses were destroyed, and the direct economic loss was as high as one billion dollars.

But no matter how strong the tornado is, it can't sweep away the enthusiasm of the Americans for Star Wars.

Half a month later, on May 19, when "Star Wars: The Phantom Menace" was released, crazy Star Wars fans contributed nearly 65 million at the box office in the first weekend!

Since Roland was invited to attend the premiere, the fans at the scene were shouting loudly, and he could understand it.

How could he not understand the catty of choosing people?

But after a few days, when countless fans frantically poured into the theater with their peripherals, the visual impact was still very shocking, after all, a bunch of people appeared in the theater with diodes glowing red and blue, that feeling was ......

It's like a crazy call meme.

If you add BGM——

'Like a seaweed seaweed seaweed seaweed seaweed ~Drifting with the waves~'

Then these excited guys, can their heads twist and fly!

It's a pity that the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.

When the fans full of anticipation walked into the theater excitedly, George Lucas gave them a soul blow!

is different from the classics on Douban in the future, in the eyes of Americans, "The Ghost Menace" is simply a piece of!

The whole movie doesn't tell any story at all, just adds an introductory chapter to the story that has been told, and slowly portrays what can be told in a few hundred words in two hours, in this case, fans who are already familiar with the trilogy have no sense of expectation, not only that, George Lucas also made a big bug!

You know, in the main trilogy, Obi-Wan personally described his state when he first met Anakin: "When I first met him, your father was already a great pilot, and I felt a great power in him, so I personally trained him to become a Jedi. ”

And then—

Anakin appears directly as a child in the prequel.

What is this?

Fans are here for Anakin!

They want to know how good the legendary Prophecy Child really is!

As a result, George Lucas showed them a shrunken version of Anakin?

It's like I was reading a book for Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, and the author had to pick up everyone's ancestral grave!

This is no longer selling dog meat on the head of a sheep!

It's the boundlessness of water!

Bah!

As a result, when a bunch of people rushed into the theater with light-emitting diodes, they were stunned when they saw the content of the movie!

The salty plot made them sit on pins and needles, and two hours later, when they came out again......

The pipe in his hand directly collapsed into several pieces!

When they found out that there was a reporter at the door for an interview, the anger made them directly evolve into Di Daxing!

Art is a blast!

"It's a garbage movie! I'm here for Darth Maul! His avatar is even the background of the entire poster! But apart from the final showdown, Darth Maul's role is pitiful! ”

"Too much preaching wears me out! The original trilogy has pointed out the relationship between the Force and genes, but this movie still re-explains the origin of the Force scientifically! More than half of the dialogue bores me! ”

"The Phantom Menace is the worst movie I've ever seen! Darth Maul looks cool, but he's just a lone husk! How many seconds did he spend on screen? Can there be twenty words? And then it's gone? The point is, apart from the twin lightsaber, I don't see a shadow of the Dark Lord at all! This is so disappointing! ”

The overwhelming number of bad reviews has made George Lucas from the father of Star Wars the most unscripted garbage director in Hollywood, but even so, the power of feelings is still strong!

The rising box office trend directly tells people that this movie is going for one billion!

Such an achievement made Star Wars fans even more angry!

No one thought that the more fierce they scolded, the more people watched?

Perhaps because the high box office has aroused the rebellious psychology of fans, in the first week of the movie's release, IMDb's fan rating was still 7.8, but after the box office exceeded 200 million, the score had dropped by 7.00%.

The public opinion feedback negatively correlated with the box office made Hollywood practitioners confused, because according to common sense, the harder the scolding, the fewer people watched? How can there still be people who are cheap, scolding and watching at the same time?

"It's not scientific!" Everyone sighed in confusion.

"The power of feelings is so strong?" Puzzled words enveloped the offices of the giants.

But just when they wanted to see with their own eyes how far the rating of the movie "Phantom Menace" would be pulled by fans, eh, they have been paying attention to the audience's feedback, and in the discussion areas of major websites and in the world's largest film database, they invariably saw the same name, which has nothing to do with "Phantom Menace", a name that has nothing to do with -

Roland Allen.
