Chapter 273. 【Blizzard Games】

With the cheering of his friends, Adam Brandt regained his confidence, and he was waiting, waiting for his moment to play.

"Alright, next!" On the stage, a guy who played the role of "vegetable" with Chinese cabbage was passed, and the interviewer shouted to the next contestants.

"It's me, it's my turn!" Adam was thrilled.

"Come on, Adam, you can do it, we have your back!" Come on, friends.

Adam shook his fist, "Well, I'll try!" After saying that, he walked onto the stage.

"Name?" The interviewer asked.

"Adam Lambert, seventeen years old, I was born in Indiana and later moved to San Diego, California......"

"Okay, this young man named 'Adam', we didn't ask you that much, you just need to answer your name, as for the rest, it's an audition now, let's talk about it when you're shortlisted!" The interviewer banged on the table and said. "Hahaha!" People laughed, "Look, this fluted boy really thinks of himself as a star!" ”

The laughter continued, and Adam's face turned red.

"What show are you going to perform?" The interviewer looked at the little guy in front of him who looked like "Elvis" and asked.

"Can I sing?"

"Absolutely."

"Well, I'll sing Mike Jackson's 'Thriller'!"

As we all know, the "Thriller" album, originally titled "Starlight", was the work that Mike Jackson intended to dedicate to his mother. In post-production, due to dissatisfaction with the mixing of the songs. The perfectionist Mike risked being sued by his owner for breach of contract and re-recorded the entire album. As a result, Thiriller was an unprecedented success. The heat has swept the global music scene. It became the highest-selling album in the history of the world, and the sales volume was counted by the World Record Statistics Association, and as of 2001, nearly 100 million copies had been sold.

"Hi Adam, are you sure you want to sing this song?" The interviewer had a good impression of this handsome little guy and reminded. "This song looks average, but it's actually very difficult to sing, you have to be careful."

"Thank you. I will. ”

"Alright then, we don't have much time, so you can sing a little bit." The interviewer yawned boredly, and for a whole day, the audition almost only had urine spots, and there were no bright spots, which was really sleepy. Well, let's hurry up and go home for hash browns, a bottle of cold beer, and chili sauce. It must have tasted great.

"But...... There doesn't seem to be any accompaniment here......"

The interviewer smiled, "Hi man. It's a qualifier, no one is going to prepare an accompaniment for you, so you can sing a cappella, well, better hurry, there are still people waiting for you! ”

"Okay then......" Adam took a deep breath and began to sing.

“Itsclosetomidnight

At the beginning, everyone was in a hurry, waiting for Adam to be passed directly, and only a few of Adam's friends sweated for him.

But when Adam opened his mouth to sing, the entire audition scene instantly fell silent.

That's right, it's weirdly quiet.

Everyone looked at Adam silently, at the young man on stage who sang "Thiriller".

At this moment, Adam had forgotten everything, and he sang to his heart's content, as if he was on a big stage that belonged to him alone.

He was born a star and shined on the stage.

"Pretty good, this guy!"

"Ha, this song is hard to sing, it's a shame that he sings it so well!"

"He should be on the reality talent show 'American Idol'!"

……

Countless people were talking, and they were slowly conquered by the song of Adam. In the opinion of many people, Adam sings so well that he should have gone to the reality show sooner.

In fact, no one knows that in a previous life, Adam Lambert was the super champion of "American Idol"!

At that time, Adam couldn't help but become an idol for the whole of America, and he also went out of North America, and captured many fans in Europe and Asia. His wild beauty, enchanting beauty, is known as one of the sexiest singers in the world.

But now, the current Adam has participated in the audition for the role of "The Hunger Games" in advance, because he has a dream, that is, to be able to meet his idol Yi Feiyang and be able to shoot the drama he directed.

In Adam's bedroom, there are countless personal posters of Yi Feiyang, and Adam even collected all the news magazines and newspapers about Yi Feiyang, cut out his reports, and made a booklet......

Sometimes, Adam even thinks that he seems to like this super amazing Chinese director, his youth, his handsomeness, and his talent......

That's right, Adam Lambert in a previous life was a same-sex person. The lover belongs to the well-known "coming out" male star in the world.

At this time, Adam didn't realize that his gender orientation was very weird, but he had a wonderful liking for Yi Feiyang. This kind of favor made him desperate to come to participate in the role audition of "The Hunger Games", with only one purpose - to get infinitely close to his idol!

On stage, in order to achieve his goal, Adam has put aside everything to sing, his voice is mellow and loud, especially in the treble part, which can reach Mike's deep and sharp realm.

Incredible!

It's incredible!

At this time, the interviewer had long forgotten the agreement to let Adam "sing a few words casually", and listened to this "Thiriller" with relish.

As for Adam, it seems that he can't express his mood just by singing, so he imitates Mike's appearance in the MV of "Thiriller", and actually dances the "zombie dance" in a super cool posture.

As everyone knows. In 1983. In order to shoot the zombie group dance scene in the music video for "Thiriller". Mike's production team spent hundreds of thousands of dollars, and this dance became the object of imitation by many young Americans at the time.

Now, almost 20 years later, the big guy has seen this wonderful and exciting dance again, and it feels like ...... I found the feeling of first love.

There is no doubt about it, Adam, who has made the cut!

……

The audition for the Hunger Games character has been going on for almost a month, and the whole of the United States is boiling over it. People who like to be celebrities regard this matter as a talking point on their lips.

You know, this is the United States. It's Hollywood, it's the star manufacturing factory. But often those big stars are the products of star manufacturing factories, or they are high-achieving students trained by a certain film school, and ordinary people want to become stars and become superstars, which is undoubtedly a fool's dream. But now it's different, Yi Feiyang gave them a chance and a stage to show their talents, as long as you are talented, then please come immediately!

The Hunger Games needs you!

The Hunger Games is waiting for you!

Boiling America, boiling big cities. New York, Philadelphia. Chicago, Los Angeles......

You can see the posters that put up the Hunger Games auditions anytime, anywhere, and you can hear the news about the Hunger Games auditions anywhere, at any time.

In short, the lives of the American people are surrounded by "The Hunger Games", whether it is entertainment media, whether it is television stations or computer networks, all of them are full of "Hunger Games" news.

In the words of US President George W. Bush, "Right now, we're all 'hungry'!" ”

It can be said that the effect of the audition of "The Hunger Games" was unexpected by Yi Feiyang himself.

What he didn't expect was the huge advertising profit brought by this event, not to mention anything else, the naming rights of this event alone were directly sold for 10 million US dollars!

Based on all advertising fees, after the end of this event, Dream Entertainment Group will be able to receive at least $123 million in advertising fees!

For the first time, Yi Feiyang felt the charm of the American advertising business, which cost more money than making movies!

But soon, his idea was scoffed at by Vice President Dures.

"Dear Yi, the most profitable thing in this world is not to make movies, not to play stocks, or to collect any pitiful advertising fees, but ...... Online game! ”

A word to wake up the dreamer!

Yi Feiyang, who was originally triumphant, immediately smelled the smell of money rolling in.

Others may not understand the meaning of Dures's words, but Yi Feiyang, as a "person who has come over", knows very well that the future of online games will be a super profitable gold and silver mountain!

What "Warcraft", what "Legend", what "Crossfire"...... Oh my God, as long as someone plays, they will keep paying you! What do you pay for? Buy gear!

Yes, there are so many people who are addicted to games in this world, they can and are willing to spend real money to buy your equipment in the game, maybe these equipment is not too expensive, but it can't stand the number of people, thousands, or even hundreds of millions of people, then the cost of equipment you gain will become a terrible astronomical amount!

Yi Feiyang was excited, really excited, he understood that this guy Dures has never been a person without a target, since he said so, he must have some big plan.

Sure enough.

Durez told Yi Feiyang that he had a relationship with the head of Blizzard Online Games, Allen? Adhan negotiated and is ready to sign a cooperation intention to develop an online version of The Hunger Games together!

Blizzard?!

Hearing this word, Yi Feiyang's mind immediately came to mind "Warcraft", as well as "Dark God of Destruction"!

If there is one online game company in the United States that is the best, then there is no doubt that it is this Blizzard company!

As the founder and game designer of this company, few people know who he is?

And he's Allen? Adhan.

In fact, in the global game circle, there are quite a lot of people who don't know what Blizzard entrepreneurs have experienced, and an important reason is that Blizzard has always been reluctant to use the media to hype itself. In 1998, Blizzard founder Allen? Adhan resigned as president and stepped back from the first line to the second line. As a consultant. Allan? Adhan wished he had enough time. Back to game design.

Rather funny, Alan? The news of Adhan's resignation did not have any repercussions among players, let alone a good impression of Blizzard, and a simple reason is that no one outside of Blizzard employees really knows about Allen? Who is Adhan and what does he do.

"We love game design, but we need to focus on the game!" The joy of the game development process. Enough to keep Blizzard entrepreneurs away from any temptation from the outside world, this passion for dedication to their cause has kept them silent, and even largely closed off from the outside world.

At Blizzard, everyone from the boss to the employees keeps a low profile, and the company's doors are rarely open to the outside world, and the entire energy of Blizzard people is focused only on their own careers. This is in stark contrast to the strange phenomenon that some companies in the Celestial Empire only know the name of their boss but do not know their products.

At this moment, in the living room of the Dream Entertainment Group Company, Yi Feiyang was waiting to meet this game cow in the creation of the story.

Yes. Yi Feiyang was a little anxious to meet this strange man who had created countless classic games.

If you say that you are a wizard in the film industry, then there is no doubt. This Alan Adhan is a geek in the gaming world.

When the time came to meet, Yi Feiyang looked at his watch, and his mood was a little anxious.

Although Dures had already made all the preparations before this, waiting for Yi Feiyang, the big boss, to sign the agreement with Allen, but in Yi Feiyang's opinion, as long as the cooperation documents have not been signed, everything can happen.

Another three minutes passed, and just when Yi Feiyang was waiting a little impatiently, Alan Adhan arrived.

When he saw Allen, Yi Feiyang's first impression was that this person was very wooden, yes, wearing thick lenses, unkempt brown hair, unshaven beard, wearing a suit that seemed to be borrowed, with fat trouser legs, which was very ill-fitting.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Yi, I'm late!" As soon as they met, Alan apologized to Yi Feiyang, "You know, there is a traffic jam on the road, and the taxi speed I take is really slow......"

Yi Feiyang shrugged, "It's okay Mr. Allen, everyone knows about the damn traffic in the United States...... But you can drive yourself, it might be a little bit faster. ”

"Oh unfortunately, I can't drive!"

"What? You can't drive?! Yi Feiyang seemed to see a monster and looked at Alan Adhan.

You must know that this is the United States, and Americans regard cars as the most important means of transportation, similar to bicycles in the Celestial Empire, almost everyone can drive, but the one in front of him is actually ...... I can't even drive!

Seeing that Yi Feiyang was so surprised, Alan lifted his glasses a little embarrassed and said, "I know, this is ridiculous." But damn it, I just can't learn. Yes, I've taken my driver's license thirteen times and still haven't passed it yet! ”

Wizard, you can take the driver's license test thirteen times, and you are almost catching up with "SpongeBob SquarePants......

"The examiner who helped me get my driver's license said that if I want to get a driver's license in my life, there are only two reasons: first, the end of the world is coming, and they will be kind enough to let me pass; Second, the end of the world has not come, but their heads have been kicked by a donkey! Alan shrugged, "Know, I was sad when I heard that, yes, very sad!" After all, I've tried hard, but ...... That damn car just won't listen to me, maybe in my last life I was an Arab, and the only means of transportation was camels! ”

I didn't expect this Alan to say that.

"Ahem, okay, Alan, put your driver's license aside for now...... Let's get down to business, this time I hope to be able to cooperate with you Blizzard......" Yi Feiyang took out the documents that Dures had prepared early in the morning, handed them to Allen and said, "Our Dream Entertainment Company is very experienced in making movies, but making online games is a bit ......"

The female secretary walked in and put the coffee in front of them, and Yi Feiyang and Allen talked eloquently.

Although they only talked for a few minutes, both of them felt the sincerity of the other.

To know the Tao, people pay attention to fate.

Some people feel that they hate each other as soon as they meet.

On the contrary, there are some people who feel like they know each other at first sight as soon as they meet.

Yi Feiyang and Allen are such people, they hit it off at first sight.

"To tell the truth, Mr. Yi, who died pro-death, the reason why I chose your cooperation is mainly because our company's "Diablo 3" is difficult to deliver, and there is a little shortage of funds, so I hope to use your strength to develop "The Hunger Games" first and complete the accumulation ......of funds" Speaking of excitement, Alan did not shy away from telling Yi Feiyang about the company's situation.

Yi Feiyang was a super fan of "Dark" in his previous life, and when he heard Allen say this, he said: "It's okay, you can develop two games together, and I'll pay for the funds!" ”

As soon as Yi Feiyang's words came out, it was too late for Dures to stop it, knowing that the funds needed to develop a game were huge, and if the game developed was not popular, it would be even more deadly.

Alan didn't expect Yi Feiyang to be so enthusiastic, and almost jumped up with joy, "God, did I hear it wrong?" Is this true? ”

Yi Feiyang ignored Dures' efforts to look at him, and said with a smile: "Of course, man, I will never lie to you!" ”

Dures was speechless, and sighed helplessly behind Yi Feiyang's back, when did this boss become so arrogant?!

Alan Adhan is clearly not the kind of person who likes to take advantage of others, so he said: "If that's the case, then easy, you're a shareholder!" Yes, our game company really needs to invest money, but we can't let you invest so much money in vain, so we welcome you to join us! ”

This time it was Yi Feiyang's turn to be a little stunned, in fact, from the beginning he only agreed to help because he liked the game "Dark", but now Alan actually invited him to join, is this considered a wolf into the room?!

It seems that he has never wanted to enter the game industry yet.

Yi Feiyang was still in a daze here, and Dures stabbed him a few fingers behind him, and when he saw that he was still stunned, he couldn't wait to replace Yi Feiyang and said: "That's the best, yes, thank God for making our relationship go further!" ~”

Nonsense! Despite all the concerns about Blizzard's development of new games, the company's achievements in the gaming industry are obvious to all, and if Dream Entertainment does manage to take a stake in Blizzard, it may even be able to control the company in the future......

What is Entertainment?

Entertainment includes movies, TV, music, and of course, online games!

Dures is ambitious, his ambition is no less than Yi Feiyang, and even stronger than Yi Feiyang in some aspects, so he will never give up this rare opportunity in Dream Entertainment!

When Yi Feiyang came back to his senses, Alan Adhan had already extended his hand very kindly, "Then congratulations in advance on our happy cooperation!" ”

Looking at the other party's sincere smile, Yi Feiyang suddenly felt like a speculative guy, but he still held Allen's hand, and from that moment on, there was another online game in the "entertainment" of fantasy entertainment; And only Yi Feiyang knows how powerful Blizzard will be in the game world in the whole world!

Thinking that he would also become a powerful witness and founder of this company, Yi Feiyang couldn't help but be happy, and even the guilt of "deceiving honest people" disappeared. (To be continued......)
