Heads Up Hollywood

Negotiations with Google's two founders were disappointing.

Tang En showed the greatest sincerity, and also showed Larry Page and Sergey Brin his future industrial layout. Although one is a technology company and the other is an entertainment company, they will definitely complement each other and complement each other.

Tang En even mobilized his contacts and personally invited all Google employees to the 20th Century Fox's internal VIP movie theater to watch Star Wars.

But a genius is a genius. Even though Larry Page is younger than Twain now, when it comes to his own interests, he will not give up an inch, and give up 10% of the equity to Twain at most.

Another 10% stake, Google will raise from Wall Street investment banks.

It is conceivable that after the 25 million US dollars is obtained, with the strength of Google, it will no longer need any financing and just wait for the listing.

That means, before that, Dunn could only hold 10% of Google's shares.

This is somewhat different from the understanding Tang En had brought to him from the online novels he had read before.

This is a real society, no one is a protagonist, and no one is a fool.

Tang En's advancement in the field of science and technology was not smooth. Fortunately, he is a director, and he is impeccable in movies.

His new film, "Star Wars Episode 1: The Phantom Man Menace" was officially released in North America on May 19.

Then... a complete explosion!

May 19th is Wednesday, a working day.

According to the "Wall Street Journal" report, on this day, more than 2.2 million full-time employees across the United States absent from work for various reasons and choose to watch movies. Such a situation directly caused an economic loss of no less than US$300 million.

And the movie tickets were fired up to $100 by ticket dealers!

On that day, "Star Wars Episode 1" was screened in 3,025 movie theaters across the United States. On this working day, it created a single-day box office record of 33.79 million US dollars!

The trend of Star Wars, like a virus, has spread throughout North America.

And the film critics also fanned the flames and fueled the flames, pushing this movie to the clouds.

"Chicago Sun" praised without hesitation: "The director's rich imagination has achieved amazing achievements in film production. This is a breathtaking film, airship races, lightsaber duels, space battles, armored vehicles, The decisive battle outside the city... a series of wonderful scenes, let people never forget it!"

"TV Guide" commented very calmly: "The first 90 minutes of the movie is a children's movie for some childish adult audiences. Fortunately, the last forty minutes showed Tang En's depth of thought and profound human trial. Throwing From the wonderful and dazzling shots, the presentation of the theme in the last 40 minutes of the film is definitely at the Oscar level."

The "Los Angeles Times" was a little harsh, "The film's visual effects are very powerful, but from a dramatic point of view, it is dull and boring. Although the last forty minutes are refreshing and eye-catching, the overall film It doesn't feel good."

The "New York Times" praised, "This movie maintains the usual amazing characteristics of this series. Especially Dunn Walker's personal stylized lens language is very tasteful. Natalie drives an armored car and drags a robot. The scene must be a template for many movies to learn in the future. As for the epic battle between the robots outside the city and the Gunga people, it is also a textbook for historical movies."

Even literary publications such as "The New Yorker", "The New Republic", and "Village Voice" have written articles to evaluate this step of the palace-level movie.

Overall evaluation, very good!

On Thursday, the box office in North America was 19.86 million;

On Friday, the box office in North America was 23.89 million;

On Saturday, the box office in North America was 30.73 million;

On Sunday, the box office in North America was 25.07 million.

The box office in the first week far surpassed "Jurassic Park" and "Titanic" that year, reaching an unprecedented US$133 million!

This is a new record for Hollywood!

With word of mouth among movie fans, "Star Wars Episode 1: The Phantom Man's Menace" has already caused restlessness throughout North America before this summer even started.

...

On a warm afternoon, Tang En lay comfortably on a sun lounger by the swimming pool in the back garden, accompanied by two beauties in bikinis on the left and right—Jessica Alba and Naomi Watts.

Nicole Kidman is well-known and has a high status, and she will always resist some excessive demands from Tang En.

But Jessica and Naomi are different, they are not well-known, so they are naturally obedient to Tang En.

In fact, on the first day Jessica moved in, Tang En carried her into Naomi's bedroom. Nicole was also furious about this, saying that Tang En had acted mischievously and wanted to move out.

It wasn't until Tang En said that after the funds returned in the second half of the year, an award-winning literary film would be launched and she would be the starring role. Nicole swallowed her anger and acquiesced to Tang En's nonsense.

"Honey, Nicole and Jessica are going to prepare a movie, what about me?" Naomi Watts pulled a grape out of her hand and put it in Dunn's mouth, raising her mouth intentionally or unintentionally.

Half-closed his eyes, Tang En, who was enjoying the sunlight and the beauty, opened his eyes at once, pondering for a while.

This is indeed a problem.

Tang En Pictures couldn't afford enough funds to cast a movie for Naomi, and Tang En didn't want to use his precious favors to find an unreliable role for Naomi.

"Don't worry, play a supporting role in "Spider-Man" first, you can play Spider-Man's teacher."

Tang En suddenly missed the "Contract Stealing" skill in the sunglasses system. If he still has some left in his hand, why not just help Naomi "rob" a heroine?

Whether it's Disney or Warner, I can choose from all kinds of blockbuster roles?

At the beginning, the novice gift package included two "stealing contract" skills, which allowed him to successfully "snatch" the director positions of "Titanic" and "Star Wars Episode 1".

Because of this, Tang En established his status as a top Hollywood director in one fell swoop.

It's just that the acquisition requirements for this skill are a bit harsh for Tang En at present.

One Oscar, one award.

Tang En's age was the biggest obstacle between him and Oscar.

"How to do it?"

Tang En pondered silently, but he really couldn't think of a ugly Yinmao. He only has two skills in total, "Mirror Image Possession" and "Contract Stealing", both of which are very important. You have to keep a spare in order to be practical.

At this time, Nicole Kidman in a sexy bikini climbed up from the swimming pool, flicking her golden hair lightly, countless water droplets, like pearls reflecting colorful light in the sun, set off her whole body The immaculate.

Tang En couldn't help but glanced a few more times and swallowed.

Nicole Kidman gave him a big roll of eyes, and proudly trimmed her hair, her mysterious figure was undisguised, "Twain, you said you were going to prepare a literary movie for me, did you write the script? "

Tang En looked at her body, his eyes were a little lost, "No, what's wrong?"

"I want to see it, spend more time thinking about the role, can't you fail in the Olympic Games again?"

"Well, yes, then go and read it. It is adapted from a book "A Beautiful Mind". You are the number one female."

"Okay, I'll read it a few times later."

Nicole Kidman pursed her lips and smiled, obviously in a good mood, she gave Tang En a big wink, but gritted her teeth angrily.

That guy was distracted!

Is my body so unattractive?

Nicole approached Tang En, wanting to pinch his waist, but found that Tang En's eyes became brighter and shrewder, and then shouted in surprise: "Haha, yes, the script, I can write Script! There will be no age limit for the script award, right?"

"Twain?"

The three girls were all a little dumbfounded, not knowing why Tang En was having trouble.

Tang En laughed loudly, and hugged Nicole by the waist as soon as he went up, "You did a good job, I will reward you once! Let's go back to the room!"

"Get out, who rewarded you!"

Nicole Kidman kicked her feet angrily, a bit like acting like a baby.

Jessica and Naomi looked at each other, smiled bitterly, helpless.
