Rebirth of the Tech Madman

I know something about Schindler's Ark, and I am willing to support this project as much as I can. Tang Huan replied leisurely: However, this subject is a bit heavy, and I am worried that Stephen, who decides to direct himself, will be emotionally affected by it. influence, so the only prerequisite is to finish my project first.”

Steve Ross frowned, and asked dissatisfiedly: Can't we switch the priority?

Sorry, one of the main goals of my project is to reflect the current level of computer technology development, with precise timeliness restrictions. Tang Huan shook his head resolutely, I have already convinced Stephen, the really anxious person , I’m afraid it’s you. In fact, it should be a good thing to have more time to prepare for the filming of “Schindler’s Ark.”

Seeing that Tang Huan was only willing to cooperate to this extent, even though Steve Ross was unwilling, there was nothing he could do - no one could force the other party by pressing his neck.

When the richest man called in a beautiful blonde girl in her early 20s without hesitation, the CEO of Time Warner understood that the patience given to him by the other party had been used up, and if he continued to pester her , It's going to be boring. After all, there was no friendship between us, it was purely an impromptu cooperation driven by interests.

After getting up and leaving the house, Steve Ross asked his assistant casually, Who was that girl just now? Why does she look familiar?

Julia Roberts, a young actress who hasn't debuted for a few years. The assistant replied casually: Twentieth Century Fox and MGM have just released a movie - Pretty Woman and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles , It’s actually a big hit at the box office at the same time in this season, the box office revenue of the first weekend not long ago, Pretty Woman reached 12 million US dollars, and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles even exaggeratedly exceeded 25 million US dollars, not I wonder if it has something to do with Tang coming back to sit in town in person. That Julia Roberts is the heroine of Pretty Woman, and it means to take advantage of this momentum to become popular.

After finishing the information, the assistant added a bit sourly, The tabloids are talking about that Don not only bought 20th Century Fox, but also inherited the 'four o'clock girl' hobby of former president Dali Zanuck. At the headquarters in Fox Square, there are beautiful actresses sent there on time, and Julia Roberts is probably one of them.

What people want is your reaction of envy, jealousy and hatred but helplessness. Steve Ross, who had a perceptive look, snorted softly, So many people are attacking Don, so what? , Eat the best, drink the best, play the best, and sleep the best, this is how he wants to show his power and fight back against all kinds of hostility.

The assistant opened his mouth, but realized that he could only talk about it, and he suddenly realized: The boss is obviously at odds with the richest man, but why does he still keep in touch with each other—since he can't win, Naturally, at the very least, it cannot become an enemy of life and death.

Alas, what a pity, another American sweetheart with great potential cannot escape the clutches of the so-called Hollywood tycoon!

...

Tang Huan enjoyed the service of Big Mouth Roberts very much, especially the reluctance of the other party, which further stimulated his desire to conquer.

In fact, it is impossible for Julia Roberts, who was born in an acting family, to be ignorant of the rules of survival in Hollywood. Take Pretty Woman, which has a strong box office trend, as an example. She is not the first choice for the heroine.

What comforted Julia Roberts was that although he was a little uncomfortable, at least Tang Huan was not annoying.

Other women may not have the opportunity to be in the eyes of the richest man. Julia Roberts, who is only 22 years old and is ambitious about her career development, thinks so while busy.

Tang Huan, who half-closed his eyes, was thinking: It seems that Pretty Woman is destined to make a fortune.

Its investment is 14 million US dollars, which may seem average at first glance, but it is considered a big investment for the genre of romantic comedy.

Reaching out and parting Julia Roberts' big wavy hair on both sides so that he can look into each other's eyes, Tang Huan continued to think, If Pretty Woman proves to be a successful work after a while, then this genre The works are bound to become popular again, and this American sweetheart has a place to use, lest he bear the unkind reputation of pulling birds without mercy.

Of course, what Tang Huan is most satisfied with is Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. This is the MGM platform he brought out to cooperate with the Hong Kong film industry, and it is the first time that profit sharing has achieved such a remarkable achievement-the box office of more than 25 million US dollars in the first week alone is beyond the imagination of companies such as Golden Harvest.

This move also maintains the reputation of the richest man, so as not to be discussed behind his back by his followers. Only DreamWorks makes a lot of money, and the difference between closeness and closeness is too obvious.

After Julia Roberts finished packing and left, the secretary called and reminded: Boss, it's time to go to the Dorothy Chandler Hall, where the Oscars are held, otherwise, there will be traffic jams again.

...

Last year's Oscars gala, the song and dance that lasted more than ten minutes at the beginning felt very lively at the time, but it attracted rave reviews and became the biggest failure.

Naturally, the director of this year's Oscar awards show was changed to restore the previous elegant style, and the theme was set as Around the World in Three and a Half Hours, saying that it would be a party around the world. It's nothing more than the whole world is constantly changing, and I hope the award ceremony can keep up with this change.

In line with this theme, many award presenters announced the winners in different places around the world, including Buenos Aires, the capital of Argentina in South America, London, the capital of England in Europe, Moscow, the capital of the Soviet Union opposite the Cold War camp, Sydney, the capital of Australia in Oceania, and Xiangjiang, an emerging film production base in Asia.

Although the circles are different, the more you go up, the more you get the analogy. When the tide of globalization is approaching, in addition to major commercial companies focusing on global layout, Oscar is also following the trend and taking the international route. However, the current level of live TV technology can easily provide a corresponding implementation platform.

The most competitive films at this year's Academy Awards are Warner Entertainment's Driving Miss Daisy with nine nominations and Universal Pictures' Born on the Fourth of July with eight .

The latter belongs to the second part of Oliver Stone's Vietnam War Trilogy after Platoon. In addition to acting as a photographer in the film, it also coordinated with Tang Daheng's favorite Tom Cruise to sacrifice his image as the leading actor. As a result, it was a great success after it was released. So far, it has earned more than 48 million US dollars in the United States. Universal Pictures, which received Tang Huan's tight seal treatment, finally had a chance to take a chance, and when it was bargaining with Matsushita, its back was a lot tougher.

According to the analysis of public opinion, Born on the Fourth of July is considered to be the most promising film to become the biggest winner of this year's Academy Awards; Miss Qian's Driving, only won the best director and best editing, and there was a rare phenomenon that the best picture and best director did not go to one family.

Fortunately, Tom Cruise, who sacrificed his image, was not in vain. Although he was only nominated for the Oscar for Best Actor, he had previously won the Golden Globe Award for Best Actor in a Drama Movie.

Tang Huan's debut here is mainly the black comedy crimes_and_misdemeanors - crimes and misdemeanors directed by Woody Allen, who has maintained a long-term cooperative relationship with United Artists.

The film was critically acclaimed and was nominated for three Academy Awards this year - Best Director, Best Supporting Actor and Best Original Screenplay.

Of course, with Woody Allen's personality, he continued to not show up at the Oscars.

However, Tang Huan didn't really care about these things. After he left for such a long time, his subordinates couldn't take care of both fame and fortune, so they would be bored and rich, which is also worthy of recognition.

However, when seeing Dead Poets Society won the Oscar for Best Original Screenplay, Tang Huan was thoughtful.

After escaping the catastrophe of a hostile takeover in 1984, Disney’s new management began to return its business focus to the original film. One of its major performances was the launch of a production and distribution brand whose main target is targeted at audiences above the age of teenagers—— ——Touchstone Pictures, Dead Poets Society is the result of this mechanism.

What Tang Huan thought was that apart from cartoons, he had to take care of Disney in more ways.

After the Oscar Awards Ceremony, Mr. Richest Man, who mainly returned favors, did not care about the empty-handed results compared to previous years, and did not give the triumphant Steve Ross the respect he expected. steel_magnolias - Julia Roberts, who was nominated for an Oscar for Best Supporting Actress in Steel Magnolias, continues to be happy - the freshness is not over yet.

...

The revived Hollywood has started to really attract money. Tang Huan, who has been suffering for nearly ten years, of course will not miss the opportunity he finally waited for. Sitting in the headquarters office in Fox Plaza, he really cared about his work, such as Projects such as Ghost Love and Home Alone, I made a special effort to ask about it.

With these foundations, we can talk about continuing to strive for living space for Chinese-language films in Hollywood.

According to the itinerary, Tang Huan got on the Silicon Valley One and flew to Arlington County, Virginia, on the east coast of the United States after temporarily suspending the affairs of Hollywood.

Like the Pentagon, the National Science Foundation of the United States is also located here, which is the target of Tang Huan's visit.

As an independent agency of the US government, the National Science Foundation is responsible for supporting all basic research and education in science and engineering, except in the medical field. The projects funded by it account for 20% of the basic research in American universities funded by the US federal government; in some fields, such as mathematics, computer science, economics and social sciences, it is a major sponsor.

Since 1985, this big benefactor has funded the creation of a backbone network for the interconnection of American universities - the National Science Foundation Network, which aims to provide researchers with a convenient academic research network platform.

Initially, the main nodes in the United States include the National Center for Atmospheric Research, or ncar, in Boulder, Colorado, and five other newly built supercomputer centers.

They are the von Neumann National Supercomputer Center at Princeton University in New Jersey, the San Diego Supercomputer Center at the University of California, California, the National Center for Supercomputing Applications at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Illinois, The Cornell National Supercomputer Research Laboratory at Cornell University in New York State, and the Pittsburgh Supercomputer Center in Pennsylvania, jointly operated by Carnegie Mellon University, the University of Pittsburgh, and Westinghouse Electric Company.

From the scale covering the entire United States, it is conceivable that the generosity involved has fed computer companies including Fangyuan, Zheru, IBM, Dec, etc., and even a small company established by Tang Huan for the operation of routers. Also benefited a lot.

Tang Huan is sure to advance the elements on the Internet such as terminals and software at his own pace, but the backbone network cannot be undertaken by a commercial company like Pacific Telecom alone, and it still depends on state funding, which is undoubtedly It is a big piece of fat, and its importance can be seen from the speed of the network.

The initial transmission speed of the line reached 56kbps. In July 1988, it was upgraded to 1.5mbps, and now it is planned to increase to 45mbps.

Such strength is not comparable to the data services provided by commercial communication companies on traditional public telephone networks.

In Tang Huan's view, the resources are a bit wasted and should be open to the public for commercial operation, so he planned to come over to lobby.

At this time, IBM released a new product with great momentum - the risc microprocessor power, and the computer rs/6000 using this cpu.

Originally, this is nothing, and its use is nothing more than running ibm's own systems such as sql database db2. However, Big Blue has seized the opportunity of the fiery rise of www, and announced that it is developing a software system similar to the philosophical Internet service zis, which can be run by the powerful rs/6000.

According to the jokes in the media, IBM should thank Tang Huan, who defeated himself in terms of personal computer standards, and save it again with the free www standard.
