Hello 1983

In many cases, Chinese medicine is actually dragged down by traditional Chinese medicine.

Because the ingredients of those cultivated Chinese medicines are much different from wild authentic medicinal materials.

Liu Qingshan was busy running, and before he knew it, it was mid-August.

With the end of the summer vacation, Home Alone, which lasted for nearly a month, finally finished the painting. The final box office was fixed at a little over 1000 million, which can be said to be a great success.

Needless to say, Hurricane Film and Television has fought a beautiful turnaround and was finally able to expand the company's scale.

At that time, it will no longer be a small Xiami at the bottom of Hollywood, but also a medium-sized film and television company.

You know, in Hollywood, a big IP can last a lifetime.

Just like Home Alone, you can continue to make sequels, and even if the box office is bad, it's not that bad.

To be honest, even if Hurricane Movies and TV is sold now, with this IP, it can sell hundreds of millions of dollars.

It takes a period of time to distribute box office dividends, so Hurricane Film and Television has to wait slowly.

This division of accounts is very complicated, and even the proportion of division of accounts is different every week.

And there are many people involved in the distribution of accounts: producers, distributors, theaters, promoters, etc., are all waiting to ask for money.

By the way, and most importantly, you still have to pay taxes. In this country, the most powerful thing is not the police, but the tax bureau.

Chambers calculated that the actual dividends of their Hurricane Company accounted for a little more than one-third.

The main reason is that the company is small, and the share ratio is lower. If it is a big company like Disney, it would dare to open its mouth and ask for [-] to [-]% directly from the theaters.

However, Hurricane Film and Television will definitely make a lot of money this time, because it can collect a bonus of 1000 million from CAA alone.

Did CAA suffer misfortune? In fact, Mr. Ovitz, the president of CAA, can wake up laughing from his dreams these two days.

In terms of box office distribution, CAA can recover the loss of 1000 million.

The rest of the overseas box office, as well as other copyrights, are all earned.

For such a popular movie, the overseas box office will definitely earn hundreds of millions. Although the dividends are lower, [-] million can still be guaranteed.

So, there are no losers in this bet.

Hurricane Film and Television has already started preparing for a new film with great ambitions because of the big profits this time, and Liu Qingshan's promotion on the talk show, so the new film has attracted a lot of attention.

After seeing off Director Zhang, Brother Long and others, Liu Qingshan took Xiao Li's car and headed from Los Angeles to San Francisco.

The two cities are probably thousands of miles apart, and the roads here are notoriously good, so it only takes a few hours.

The car is on Highway 1. Xiao Li said that the scenery along the way is the most beautiful, and you can often meet more beautiful girls.

The two ran all the way, and the scenery was really good, but Xiao Li was looking forward to the girl standing on the side of the road to stop the car, but there was no one.

This time to San Francisco, Liu Qingshan's goal is of course Silicon Valley, where the technology companies that are about to go public are located.

San Francisco is similar to Los Angeles. It is also a seaside city, and it is also a peninsula city, surrounded by the sea on three sides, so it is very cool in summer.

When entering the urban area, Xiao Li yelled that he was hungry and wanted to go to the famous Fisherman's Wharf to eat seafood. It is said that the seafood there is the best in the United States.

However, when Liu Qingshan set off, he had already called Jiang Renyi and made an appointment to meet in Chinatown here, so he tricked Xiao Li to eat Chinese food in Chinatown.

Because of historical reasons, the Chinatown here is also the largest in the United States.

More than 100 years ago, Chinese laborers came here, and most of them panned for gold here, so this place is called Jinshan.

Later, in order to distinguish it from the new JS in Australia, it was gradually called San Francisco, and it has been used to this day.

Driving all the way to Chinatown, the street style immediately changed, and Liu Qingshan felt as if he had returned to China in an instant.

At the entrance, there are still four big characters written by Mr. Sun, "The world is for the public".

The husband also lived in this city for a period of time. When he came here from Honolulu, he was even arrested and sent to the detention center because he was afraid that he would cause trouble.

Cars can be used in Chinatown, but the roads are quite crowded, so I simply parked the car in the parking lot outside, and two people walked inside.

As for the two assistants accompanying Xiao Li, namely the driver and the bodyguard, they just asked Xiao Li to send them off for free activities.

There are many shops on both sides, and most of the signboards are Chinese characters. There are the most various shops and restaurants, and you can see many foreigners coming in and out.

The Chinese restaurant here is known as the most authentic in the United States.

As soon as he saw these restaurants, Xiao Li couldn't move, and he was really hungry.

"Promise." Although Liu Qingshan said so, he was actually a little hungry.

He took out his cellular phone and called Jiang Renyi, and learned that they had already booked a banquet at a seafood restaurant and were waiting for Liu Qingshan.

After asking about the route, Liu Qingshan had no choice but to buy a set of pancakes and fruits for Xiao Li first, and this guy was able to eat them happily.

Liu Qingshan doesn't know how to eat it, so how about eating a feast of seafood while saving your belly?

At the door of a restaurant called Little Fisherman's Wharf, Liu Qingshan finally saw Jiang Renyi.

In the past three years, Jiang Renyi has also changed a lot. He has become more mature and restrained, and he already has the demeanor of a general.

"boss."

Jiang Renyi stepped forward to shake hands with Liu Qingshan, with a friendly but respectful demeanor.

"Thanks for your hard work." Liu Qingshan patted Jiang Renyi's arm, this was definitely not a cliché.

Liu Qingshan's eyes fell on Jiang Renyi's temples, and there were already strands of white hair protruding from them.

Jiang Renyi also noticed Liu Qingshan's gaze, and raised his hand to caress his temples: "Maybe it's because the climate is not acclimatized. When you come here, you will start to grow some gray hair."

"Don't wait, the boy's head is white."

Liu Qingshan looked at Jiang Renyi with a smile: "What you did was the most meaningful thing. After decades, when you look back on the past, you will feel that you have no regrets about this period of youth."

Jiang Renyi nodded, then turned sideways to let out a girl behind him.

Liu Qingshan stared at the girl for a long time, she was a very quiet girl with neat short hair and a little baby fat on her face.

The body is a little bit fat, perhaps it is more appropriate to describe it as plump.

Because Chinese people in this era seldom find that kind of fat man.

Looking at the other party's thick myopia glasses and the familiar eyes behind the lenses, Liu Qingshan asked suspiciously:

"Yu Miao?"

The girl smiled and nodded: "Student Liu, it's me."

Liu Qingshan finally combined the very feminine person in front of him with the obese female classmate in his memory.

It cannot be said to be overlapping, but to erase the previous image.

"It really echoes the old saying, the Eighteenth Change of the Women's University, Yu Miao, I almost didn't recognize you, you really gave me a big surprise."

Liu Qingshan stretched out his hand to Yu Miao, but the latter opened his arms and gave him a hug.

"Student Liu, thank you."

Two simple words, spoken from Yu Miao's mouth, make people feel that they are heavier than a thousand catties.

It feels like Yu Miao is really a different person now. Of course, it is not only the environment, but also her inner beliefs that promote this change.

Liu Qingshan knew that Yu Miao's heart was extremely strong.

At this time, Jiang Renyi interjected: "Miaomiao is amazing now, her level has surpassed mine, especially in programming, she is simply a genius."

"Okay, it's time to make up something small, and give these first-generation netizens a little surprise." Liu Qingshan's smile was a bit playful.

Since we are going to shoot The Matrix, we must first let the concept of virus programs be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

So Liu Qingshan is going to do something in this regard, preferably with a mischievous nature, to scare these little netizens who don't know the depth.

Then the company will launch free anti-virus software, which will be more perfect.

But this plan must be kept secret, Liu Qingshan is going to discuss it with Yu Miao alone.

Immediately afterwards, Xiao Li was also introduced to Jiang Renyi and the others, because Xiao Li also helped a lot back then.

Technology companies can go public smoothly, thanks to Xiao Li's contribution.

He first helped find a small technology company that was on the verge of delisting, and the stock price almost dropped below one dollar.

Generally speaking, a stock worth less than one dollar is basically equivalent to being delisted, and the probability of one in ten thousand can be brought back to life.

Xiao Li used his family relationship to help buy the shares of this small company privately, and then borrowed the shell of this small company to go public.

Backdoor listing is very common in the stock market, and you can even hire a professional team to help you operate, as long as you are willing to pay a high commission.

The reorganized company, officially named "Earth Network", can be simply and roughly translated into Earth Network.

Anyway, the current Internet is still in its infancy, and the name can be chosen casually, of course it must be taller.

Several people entered the Seafood Restaurant together, and there were six or seven people in the reserved private room. When they saw Liu Qingshan and the others coming in, they all stood up to welcome them.

Most of them are young people, and there is even a black girl who looks very familiar with Yu Miao.

"Everyone, it's the first time to meet you, it's a pleasure to meet you all."

Liu Qingshan's eyes flicked across everyone's faces, giving people a feeling of spring breeze.

The people present here are the main creators of Earth Network, mostly young people, only one middle-aged man in his 40s, Adrian, who is in charge of the company's administrative affairs and executive vice president.

Jiang Renyi introduced them one by one, and there were two overseas students from Huaxia: Zhang Zhipeng and Liu Bin.

The rest are locals, the older administrator is Wayne, and the black girl is Elina.

A slovenly young man rushed to Liu Qingshan's side directly: "Oh, boss, can you teach me two kung fu."

This guy is called Hunter, and most of the technical people are like this, with a sloppy appearance. Liu Qingshan estimated that this guy's beard must have not been shaved for half a month.

"Hunter, the boss is a musician." Another long-haired young man named Nathan put his arm around Hunter's shoulders and pushed him back to his seat.

Then Nathan approached Liu Qingshan: "Boss, can I learn musical instruments from you, the kind you play on TV, I will feel very peaceful when I hear that sound, and I can concentrate on my work middle."

"Okay, I'll give you a Tao Xun then."

Liu Qingshan patted Nathan on the shoulder, these guys are really familiar with each other.

Liu Qingshan doesn't know that he has become the idol of many young people in this continent: he is young and rich, and most importantly, he is also versatile.

Especially this group of nerds who study code all day long, they admire him very much.

And their idol is still their own boss, no wonder they are so excited.

Originally, the team led by Jiang Renyi has always had a very harmonious relationship with each other, and the working atmosphere is also very good.

After the introduction, everyone was seated, Liu Qingshan said:

"Everyone, Internet technology is a big track for development in the next few decades. As practitioners in it, your future is limitless."

These people also showed pride on their faces. The world of nerds is so simple and happy.

"And becoming a member of our Earth Network will be the most important choice and opportunity in your life."

"How big is this piece of cake? I want to say that it is immeasurable. Your future may be the current Bill Gates."

Oh no!

The guys like Hunter couldn't help making weird noises, because Bill was also their idol.

On the other hand, the middle-aged Adrian, who was much calmer than these rookie youngsters, just looked at Liu Qingshan with a smile.

Liu Qingshan opened his hands and made an upward gesture:

"The slogan of our earth network is, the earth is in my hands!"

This sentence is still very provocative, and the young people present couldn't help but get excited, and Hunter even screamed strangely:

"Earth is in my hands, oh boss, this is so cool!"

Liu Qingshan looked around for a week: "So I'm here to solemnly warn everyone that everyone is a shareholder of Earth Network. No matter what the price of our Earth Network stock will rise, don't sell it lightly, or you will definitely regret it."

Chapter 7 The Internet is a Big Fat Meat

The lunch was very rich, and the large and small shareholders of Earth Net ate very happily.

After leaving Chinatown, we drove to the company's location together.

It's the first time for Liu Qingshan to visit Silicon Valley, and it's quite interesting.

In his imagination, such a high-end place would definitely be incomparably prosperous, that kind of scene of high-rise buildings and elites everywhere.

In fact, sitting in the car all the way, I feel that this place is a bit like a countryside.
