Reborn Monopoly System
Chapter 346
“Ladies and gentlemen, please introduce yourself to our little brothers!” George Lucas was already very familiar with them, so he did not introduce himself, but joked
“Mr. Wu! Welcome to America! I’m Robert Iger, the current CEO of Disney. After Robert Egger finished speaking, he handed over his business card.
Wu Yun also took out a business card from his pocket and exchanged it with Robert Egger:”Mr. Egger, I have long admired your name! I have heard of your reputation all over China!”
After the two of them finished their greetings, the white man wearing glasses next to him handed over his business card:”Mr. Wu Yun! Nice to meet you! I am James Murdoch, and I will be working at 20th Century Fox!”
After James Murdoch introduced himself, Wu Yun immediately knew that this was the son of the legendary media tycoon Rupert Murdoch. He didn’t know which of Rupert Murdoch’s children this was.
Wu Yun’s understanding of the big names on these rankings is limited to a few short introductions.
Rupert Murdoch is famous because of the tidbits involving the British Prime Minister.
The moment he exchanged business cards, Wu Yun purchased introductory information about the Murdoch family in the system mall, and immediately had a little understanding of James Murdoch.
Speaking of which, this James really has some connections with us Chinese people.
Since Rupert Murdoch bought Star TV in 1995, it has suffered a cumulative loss of US$650 million (approximately 4.3 billion yuan). In 2000, James became the chairman of Asia Star TV and successfully withstood the test. Three years later, Star TV launched in mainland China and achieved a major breakthrough in the Indian market, eventually turning losses into profits.
Although according to rumors, the reason why James was able to show off his ambitions in Star TV was because Wendi Deng said to the old Murdoch,”Why is the Star TV so bad?”, which made the old Murdoch take this project seriously.
Even so, it can also reflect James’ business talent from the side.
According to the information provided by the system, James and Lachlan (James’ brother) will officially take over the 21st Century Fox Film Company on July 1 this year. James to become CEO of 21st Century Fox Film Company
Wu Yun felt some sympathy for James. He had been living in the shadow of his father. If Murdoch Sr. didn’t leave, he and his brother would never have the right to speak.
Moreover, some of the affairs of the Murdoch family can even write a novel about palace battles, fighting for power and profit, showing all kinds of means.
Of course, this was just a flash of information in Wu Yun’s mind. Wu Yun smiled and said:”Mr. James, I contributed a lot of ratings to the Star TV you used to control!”
James was stunned for a moment, then smiled, and his liking for Wu Yun increased greatly, not only because Wu Yun understood his past, but also because Wu Yun said Mr. James
“Witch, just call me James! I’m very interested in you. I hope we can chat alone after the party!”
After James finished speaking, he gave up his position.
At this time, the smiling middle-aged woman smiled and stretched out her hand:”Hello, Mr. Wu! I am Laurenna Powell Jobs! I am making some investments now. If you need funds, please let me know!””
After Laurenna and Wu Yun exchanged business cards, they stopped talking and stood aside with a smile.
George Lucas responded:”Laurena is still so low-key! Mr. Wu! Ms. Laurenna Jobs is the wife of Mr. Jobs”
At this time, Robert Iger next to him smiled and added:”Ms. Jobs is our largest individual shareholder of Disney! She also owns part of Apple’s shares.”
George Lucas nodded and said with deep feeling:”Laurena ranked 73rd last year. She is far richer than me. Even old Murdoch is a little behind. It’s really too low-key.!”
Robert and James nodded deeply.
After everyone exchanged greetings for a while and became familiar with each other, Wu Yun expressed his doubts:”Mr. Lucas, I was wondering why you invited me?”
Seeing Wu Yun looking at him in surprise, George Lucas smiled and said:”Mr. Wu, are you surprised at how well I know you!?”
Wu Yun nodded and watched James take a glass of wine from the plate in the waiter’s hand. He also took a sip from the glass.
“Speaking of which, I met you by chance! Let’s start with a novel from your country called”The Three-Body Problem”!”
George Lucas continued with a look of reminiscence:”I read the novel”The Three-Body Problem” by Liu Cixin, and felt that the world view of the Three-Body Problem was even worse than that of Star Wars, so I decided to adapt it into”The Three-Body Problem”. movie ideas”
“And I also think this novel will definitely win an award in the United States! So I want to acquire the copyright before it becomes popular and use it as an investment!”
Wu Yun admired in his heart, it must be said that none of the big guys on the list are fuel-efficient lamps, and their vision can be said to be ruthless.
“So I sent people to China before the Spring Festival in your country to see if I could acquire the copyright of this book and Liu Cixin’s other works as soon as possible.”
George Lucas looked regretful and said:”Unexpectedly, after many twists and turns, my subordinates gave me feedback that the copyright had been acquired by a film and television company called Phoenix Entertainment. I immediately knew that it was almost impossible to acquire the copyright.”
Seeing Wu Yun’s surprised look, George Lucas smiled and said:”Yes, I also checked who the shareholders of this small company called Phoenix Entertainment were! By the way, I learned about you, so I also I gave up the idea of acquiring copyright”
“Unexpectedly, within two days, Industrial Magic Light received a visit and cooperation request from Phoenix Entertainment. Because all matters related to China, no matter big or small, will be reported to us. That’s why I came up with the idea of getting to know you!”
Wu Yun smiled and asked:”Is it possible that Mr. Lucas still wants to acquire the copyright?”
George Lucas nodded and shook his head:”If you are willing to sell, I will be willing to buy it. If not, it doesn’t matter. I just have a small request!”
George Lucas’s answer was somewhat beyond Wu Yun’s expectation, but looking at George Lucas’s expression, Wu Yun knew that he must be asking for something from him:”Please tell me!”
“Mr. Wu, you should know that I am a science fiction fan! He is also a director and screenwriter! if possible! Can you let me also participate in the filming of”The Three-Body Problem”? Even if I can’t direct, I can still be a director!”
Wu Yun did not expect such a surprise today. You must know that China is now a desert for science fiction films. No director dares to try to shoot such a science fiction masterpiece. Even if Wu Yun has money, he does not want to waste it on meaningless movies. Shooting
Wu Yun looked at the expectant look on George Lucas’s face, pondered for a moment and then expressed his thoughts.
“Mr. Lucas, I believe that few people in the world can match your experience in shooting science fiction films, so if it is going to be made, I will definitely approve of you directing it!”
“but!”
When they heard Wu Yun say the word”but”, several other people looked as if this was true.
“However, I don’t plan to shoot it now because the popularity of”The Three-Body Problem” has not yet reached its peak. I will not consider it until at least two years later, when the special effects technology becomes more mature!”
George Lucas breathed a sigh of relief and said:”No problem! I can still wait for this time!”
Afterwards, George Lucas chatted with a few more people before leaving to greet other guests.
After George Lucas left, the remaining three chatted about the movie again. When Wu Yun asked about the Oscar awards, Robert Iger smiled and said:”Wu! This award can only deceive ordinary people and these people.” Just a little star! You are not in the United States and don’t understand the situation here!”
“The winners are determined by the compromise of the top group of people! Today’s Oscars are no longer purely for art as they used to be! There are other things mixed in here!”
“right! I heard about it too……”
……
While Wu Yun and others were chatting, the hall was divided into many small groups in twos and threes.
Several faces that often appeared on the screen gathered together and looked towards Wu Yun from time to time.
“Scarlett! You said you saw that Asian guy?”Robert Downey Jr. looked at Scarlett in disbelief with his eyes wide open.
When Scarlett saw this familiar Asian face walking in, Mr. Lucas personally greeted him and took him to the circle of rich people. Scarlett was surprised at the time!
After encountering Wu Yun’s high-intensity training and fighting with several tall sparring partners in the gym for three consecutive mornings, Scarlett thought Wu Yun was a fighting athlete who came to the United States to compete. After all, Wu Yun’s strength was indeed the same as hers in a fighting competition. The athletes in them are almost the same in strength
“Yes! Scarlett stared at Wu Yun chatting and laughing with the business bosses, and said:”He also lives in the Beverly Hills Hotel. I have met him during my morning workouts these past few days!” I thought he was an athlete! Unexpectedly, identity is not simple!”
Chris, who plays Captain America, looked Wu Yun up and down and said with a smile:”This figure is really good! From the first glance, he looks like someone who exercises regularly!””
Elizabeth, who played the Scarlet Witch in a somewhat sexy outfit, licked her lips and said,”I just like men with good figures!”
Captain America’s Chris turned to look at Elizabeth and was about to speak when Thor Chris beside him said with a rough voice in his voice:”Wanda, don’t you like my style?”
As he said that, Thor Chris also patted his pectoralis major and shook it hard twice, which was very obvious under his shirt!
Elizabeth covered her face and said:”Shetter, don’t let your brother know what you said! Otherwise, be careful he puts the Mind Stone into your butt!”
Recently, Elizabeth and Tom, who plays Loki, have been having a heated fight. Most people would not believe it when told that the Scarlet Witch is actually going to fall in love with Loki!
Robert Downey Jr. interrupted the banter of several people and said:”This young man is indeed extraordinary! I know that woman, she is Steve Jobs’s wife, and this year Forbes gave her a net worth of US$14 billion!”
Circles are important, but they are also divided into people. If you forcefully enter a circle, you will most likely be rejected unless someone recommends you. But why should others recommend you?
Even Robert Downey Jr., one of the top paid male stars in the world, is only familiar with the wealthy people in the film industry.
“Everyone must know Mr. Iger, the other Disney chairman!”
Several people nodded, how could they hang out in this circle if they didn’t know each other!
“I guess he is Japanese or Korean! Their people are very rich, and at such a young age, they look like heirs to a conglomerate!”Elizabeth guessed
A few people were about to speak, when the voice of George Lucas came from the speaker on a small high platform.
“Gentlemen! Ladies! Welcome to the banquet I’m hosting tonight! The purpose of today is to bring everyone together to connect with each other!……..Please move to the garden, where dinner will be prepared tonight. Finally, I hope you all have a pleasant and wonderful night!”
Seeing that the host had finished speaking, some people in the corners began to take plates and choose food in the public area, and Wang Hao also joined the process.
It was the first time for Wu Yun to experience the Western banquet culture.
Anyway, the three James people he was chatting with just casually ate some cold food, then stopped the tableware and let the waiter clear it, and sat down to chat.
Only Wu Yun took a large plate of food and listened to their chat while eating.
Wu Yun was a little puzzled and said:”Aren’t you hungry? Eat so little?”
James and others looked at each other and laughed.
James explained:”In Western countries! No! At least in the United States, this is the case. Everyone participates in this kind of buffet-style banquet with the purpose of making friends or connecting with each other, so generally we will eat something in advance, Or go and have a meal after the game is over”
“At the banquet, we ate less because everyone was chatting and communicating!”
After saying that, James looked around and then said:”Fake, my stepmother loves this kind of banquet. Every time I go back, I can see her holding a banquet in my father’s name!”
Before Wu Yun came, he knew the general process of the banquet, but the details of the banquet were not disclosed online.
Several people watched him eat, which made Wu Yun feel a little awkward.
Seeing Wu Yun’s appearance, the three people present were all human beings. They smiled and said a few words for later contact, then stood up and walked to other circles.
James walked behind and smiled at Wu Yun as if making a phone call.
“sorry for disturbance! Can I sit here?”Wu Yun looked up and saw a familiar face standing opposite him holding a plate.
Wu Yun looked around again. Most of the tables and chairs arranged were occupied.
So he smiled and said:”Emma, please sit down!”
This blonde and black-eyed girl is Emma Watson who plays Hermione Granger in Harry Potter
Emma Watson is not surprised that Wu Yun can recognize her
“Thanks!”Emma put the plate with food on the table, then gently touched the dress behind her hips with her hands and sat elegantly on the front half of the chair.
“Excuse me! Make you laugh! I ate so much when I came to the party! Emma said with a toothy smile to Wu Yun
Wu Yun casually put a piece of fried steak into his mouth, not paying attention to the looks around him. After swallowing the steak, he said:”It’s okay! I ate more than you!””
Wu Yun said, pointing to the omelette on another plate on the table.
