America: Starting with the acquisition of MGM

Chapter 64 Cooperation suddenly became enjoyable

That night, MGM's official website released a one-minute video, which contained exactly the shape of Bumblebee and included a ten-second transformation scene.

Although it looks a bit rough now and has not reached the level of perfection, what is lacking is only more refined polishing.

For this look and action, it took more than a month from MGM to come up with the first draft to Weta Digital to complete the preliminary stage.

This time was considered short, and it was completed with Eric's step-by-step on-site guidance on the changes.

Otherwise, it will take a month to get it done? Want to peach! It will take at least three months.

In Park City, Eric opened another large villa in Sweetwater Manor.

In addition to good wine and meat, beautiful women are also indispensable. He threw out a lot of money, and soon a high-end call girl came to the door. After some venting, Sergey finally got angry.

At this time, the two of them were soaking in the hot spring, and the old boy finally stopped pushing.

"You look a lot better."

Sergei exhaled a deep breath like a cultivator, as if he was still savoring the taste just now.

"The two women you found are really good. It's better to be in the entertainment industry."

"Uh, you made a mistake, man. They are just high-end products. The takeout is $2,000. I think the price has increased. After all, it is during the Sundance Film Festival, the peak season!"

"Time is too tight this time. If you want to experience a female star, I will arrange it next time. 6̾̾"

Hearing this, Sergey became interested and asked tentatively: "Can you get Kate Winslet? I quite like her."

"Titanic?"

This middle-aged man in his thirties unexpectedly made a rare move: "Yes, that is shredded meat, the dream of many men."

Eric was a little speechless. Brother, you are almost forty, do you still believe that? Still playing innocently?

Realizing that the other person's eyes were wrong, Sergey quickly explained: "Actually, my family is not happy. Rachel is my wife. We have been separated for a long time. To be more precise, we each play our own way and don't disturb each other."

"The two of us were never in love. It was in high school. We just had a one-night stand, and then I won the lottery, and that's how we started a haphazard marriage."

"Sergey, given your status, what will happen if you win the lottery? If you don't want it, just give her some money. Is it necessary to get married? The price is too high!" Eric asked doubtfully .

Sergey shook his head helplessly: "No, you don't know me. Although my surname is Hassenfeld, I can only be regarded as a branch, a very distant kind."

"At that time, I was still a young man like you, actually younger than you. As a young man, I did not enjoy the wealth and fame of this family. I was just a poor boy. Abortion was not allowed by state law, except for marriage. No choice.

"Later, when I joined Hasbro, I slowly got to where I am today."

Eric gave a thumbs up: "In this case, you can be considered independent, self-reliant, young and promising."

Sergey was silent. After a moment of pause, he suddenly smiled bitterly: "Is this how it seems to outsiders? But in fact it is not."

"The main reason why I was able to take the position of CEO of Hasbro is because Allen's two sons died in an accident and he had no heirs."

"And I'm an obedient person, so the position finally came to me, and that was that."

"Then"

Suddenly, Sergey seemed to open up his chat box, or maybe he had suppressed it for too long, and began to talk endlessly about his life.

It sounded like Eric was a little depressed. It turned out that this man with a bright appearance was so miserable behind the scenes.

Rather than being a CEO, he is more like a puppet, a puppet who is at the mercy of his uncle who has already played five servers.

This time he plotted against Hasbro, and he was naturally used as a punching bag by his uncle. In Sergey's own words, he felt like he was living like a dog, a dog circling around Alan Hassenfeld's feet.

His only pleasure is sex, and only sex can help him regain some self-esteem.

Sighing, Eric took out a bottle of high-strength vodka from the cabinet.

"Have a drink, at least it will make you forget your worries tonight."

Sergey was not polite and drank the 60-degree vodka in one gulp. The burning sensation made his face turn red instantly.

He shook his head and told the other party not to overdo it.

Eric got up and left, and soon two tall and beautiful girls entered the hot spring.

On the Internet at this time, with the release of the MGM video, it quickly gained a lot of attention, and the one-minute video was quickly reposted on major forums.

Later, MGM bought an advertisement on the front page of Yahoo. As long as you click on the website, the first thing you see is the cool transformation of Bumblebee.

Many people who weren't originally interested in Transformers couldn't help but be attracted.

Although there are some die-hard fans who dislike the fact that it is different from the anime version, these people will definitely not be able to defeat the public in terms of numbers.

As for Eric's work as a director, naturally no one pays attention to it anymore, because the core selling point of "Transformers" is these iron lumps.

No, no, no, who sees Transformers just to see people? Aren't they all here to see the Autobots and Decepticons?

As long as they can be done well, the movie is more than half successful, and the video released by MGM perfectly proves this point.

The next day, when Eric and Sergey met again, they tacitly agreed not to mention what happened yesterday. The latter seemed to have become the high-spirited CEO again.

At 9:30 in the morning, as the market opened, Hasbro's stock price soared.

"Hahahaha, it worked. The stock price started to rise. Eric, you are indeed a genius!"

"Look at these people, they're all attracted to that video, is this a bumblebee?"

"Yes, we have an agreement with General Motors. It will be a Chevrolet in the movie." Eric replied with a smile.

Sergey looked at the transformation part and marveled: "This is simply great. It has completely different feelings from the anime version. I have a hunch that when the movie is released, these Transformers will definitely sell like crazy."

As he spoke, the last clause of the gambling agreement emerged in his mind: "Can four times the sales volume really be achieved?"

But in the blink of an eye, he threw the question behind him: "Eric, now that the matter has been resolved, it's time for me to return to New York to report back to Allen, but I hope MGM will stop making random decisions."

Eric smiled and stretched out his hand: "Don't worry, then I wish you a safe journey, and I hope we can have a pleasant cooperation in the future!"

“Happy to work with!”

The two hugged and Sergey got into the car.

Several followers couldn't help but wonder why the relationship between these two people suddenly became so good. Yesterday, they almost got into a fight. It was really strange!

Looking at the car leaving, Eric couldn't help but recall the conversation last night. Maybe Sergey would be a good helper.

The stock market has come to an end for the time being. I am writing this paragraph specifically. You can also see that I am preparing to take over Hasbro in the future.
