America's Road to Fame

Chapter 343 Lord's Heart
Since I can't think of where to use this [Master of Waves Experience Card] for the time being, William Chen is not in a hurry, just keep it, there will always be a chance to use it.

Around Christmas is the discount season for European and American products, and it is also one of the most enthusiastic shopping times for people. The atmosphere is comparable to that of the Spring Festival in China.

But for William Chen, every time this special day comes, he can't help getting a little busy. First, he spent Christmas Eve at the Long Island Manor with Ivanta. Now it's the two of them. Soon, his family will There is going to be a new member.

William Chen looked at Ivanta with a motherly face, and silently added in his heart, um, there are two of them.

During this time, William Chen still needs to find time to accompany the Hilton sisters who are also in New York... Well, for more efficiency, there are a few other women, including Jessica, Miranda, Ember...

When it came to Christmas, William Chen needed to go to California to take care of the situation of Meta Entertainment Media Company and Meta Technology at noon.

So he arrived at the villa in Malibu, Los Angeles, and spent two days with Nozomi Sasaki...

The films launched by MGM in the 007th Century this year have all been successful. Among the films that have been released this year, "11: Skyfall" performed the best, with a global box office of more than 2010 billion US dollars, becoming the MGM of the [-]th Century. May is the most profitable film produced this year ("Avatar" belongs to the films produced in [-]), and because of this film, Jessica has more invitations in commercial film productions.

"X-Men: First Class" participated by Fan Bingbing also performed well, with a global box office of more than 4 million U.S. dollars. With such achievements, MGM Pictures of the [-]th Century has more confidence to continue the X-Men film industry. series, and a new one is about to be filmed.

Fan Bingbing has also gained popularity in Hollywood because of the performance of this movie. She will also become a resident character in the "X-Men" series, and will also appear in the "Avengers" series of movies in the future.

"Iron Man 2", which is currently being released, is also doing well. It is expected that the box office will exceed 2 million US dollars. There will be more superhero movies in the future.

In the Marvel Studios plan of MGM Pictures in the [-]th century, in the future, various superheroes will be linked together through the combined film "Avengers", and then based on the popularity of the superheroes, they will continue to release their own independent films. .

At the same time, some plots that cannot be narrated in the movies will be placed in the corresponding episodes, and put into Netflix's streaming media platform to create the IP of the Marvel universe through the method of movies + episodes.

Chen William naturally knows how amazing the future movies of the Marvel Universe will be, but at this moment, in the eyes of others, the superhero movies produced by Marvel Studios can only be said to be successful, and there is no special performance. Amazing box office.

But it is enough to be successful. There is a reason for them to continue to start Marvel's superhero movies. The next movie that will be prepared is the Avengers.

In addition, it is the "Twilight Saga" series of movies obtained after MGM Pictures acquired Summit Entertainment in the 6800th Century. The third "Eclipse" released this year cost 2.6 million U.S. dollars, and the global box office totaled [-] million U.S. dollars. , is still a big profit.

And after "Extreme Game" was broadcast on Netflix and caused a trend all over the world, [-]th Century MGM Pictures has already started preparations for the film adaptation of the best-selling novel "The Hunger Games".

In the beginning, even though it won the right to adapt the best-selling book "The Hunger Games", MGM Pictures in the [-]th Century still had some concerns. This novel is a novel with a female protagonist. For movies with female protagonists, it is inevitable that there will be doubts about the box office results.

However, after the series "Extreme Game" was broadcast on the Netflix streaming platform, it became a phenomenal series and became popular all over the world. In this regard, [-]th Century MGM was also greatly encouraged.

Because "Extreme Game" also has three heroines, even more than the number of male protagonists. Being able to achieve such a result also made [-]th Century MGM a little more for the movie "The Hunger Games" Confidence, and the preparations for this film began.

Therefore, when [-]th Century MGM Pictures performed well at the box office, Netflix proposed to acquire [-]th Century MGM Pictures, and was subject to FTC antitrust investigations. I am afraid that other Hollywood film and television companies would like to see it. .

However, they are bound to be disappointed that, thanks to the efforts of the lobbying firm hired by Chen William, coupled with the increasingly heated discussions in the media on whether the "Paramount Act" is still suitable for the development of the times under the current circumstances.

After four FTC inquiries about antitrust investigations, Netflix’s acquisition was finally approved by the FTC and determined not to constitute a monopoly.

In this way, Netflix will complete the acquisition of [-]th Century MGM Pictures, and become a large-scale entertainment media company that can compete with Disney, including film and television content production, distribution and network channels, and is no longer just a streamer. media platform.

That is to say, William Chen has placed the Meta Group under the Kettering Foundation. Otherwise, the increase in the market value of Netflix's stock due to the skyrocketing price increase due to this acquisition alone may also cause the media in the United States to once again raise concerns about Chen William. Whether William's fortune is already the de facto richest man in the world has been discussed.

With the current situation, Chen William may be able to get rid of everyone's discussion about whether he has become the world's richest man for a long time, because not only has he put the Meta Group into the family trust of the Kettering Foundation.

Moreover, most of his other properties have already been held outside the United States in the form of secret holdings of offshore companies, and the nature of the Atlanta fund will not be included in the Forbes list, so for William Chen , Such a result still makes him very satisfied.

The time soon came to 2011. On New Year's Day, William Chen woke up from his Long Island manor and got another chance to draw a New Year's Day gift package.

Glancing at Ivanta who was sleeping peacefully beside her, she was working very hard now, and could only fall asleep in a side-lying position to reduce the burden on her body.

Standing up gently, William Chen tried not to wake her up, and after taking a bath, the lucky draw began.

After William Chen saw that he was drawing a lottery, the items added to the inventory felt a bit interesting——

[Lord Heart (Elementary)] As a lord, provide protection for the subjects of the territory.This prop can be attached to sculptures or landmark buildings to provide positive bonuses for the people within the range, including improving happiness, work and study efficiency, reducing negative emotions, and increasing loyalty to the lord.Level: primary (upgradable), range of action: 50 kilometers in radius.

This is a range item with a buff. It’s just a basic item. I don’t know how it works, but it can be upgraded, so I don’t know how to upgrade it. Is it possible that I need to draw other items to upgrade later?
However, the range of action is 50 kilometers, which is still enough. Atlanta is currently about 30 kilometers long and 18 kilometers wide. Even if the Hermi Islands are included, they are all within 50 kilometers.

It's just that the use of [Heart of the Lord] needs to be attached to a sculpture or a landmark building, so you need to think about it. At that time, build one at a suitable location on Atlanta Island, similar to the "miracle" in the game. "architecture?
This seems possible.

Moreover, as the so-called "lord" of Atlan Island, this item can not only provide buffs to the islanders, but also increase their loyalty to him. It is indeed what makes William Chen tempted, so he has to find a way After using this, I wonder if there will be a stronger effect if there is a chance to upgrade in the future?
Anyway, from this day on, the time has entered 2011, and now Ivanta's due date is only about a month away.

In the previous life, William Chen died without having a child. In this world, his first child will be born soon. His mood is still quite complicated, and he is nervous with anticipation. With few ideas, I also tried to give this child a nice name.
