Hollywood Starts with Animation

the next day.

Silicon Valley, Wald Building, icq.

Icq has just been established, and the company's CEO is Vesger, 27; President Vardy, 26; CTO Goldfinger, 26; age;

I have to say that icq is an Internet company with very young members.

Of course, this situation was very common in Silicon Valley in the 1990s!

Now the official version of icq has been successfully developed. Zu Ke, who knew that his future was awesome, naturally came here very early.

"I'm really a genius. I won 40% of the original stock for $400,000. Even if the subsequent rounds of additional investment will dilute the shares, I will definitely make a lot of money!" Zu Ke thought.

In 1998, AOL paid more than $400 million for the acquisition of icq!

"Zuck, you're finally here," Wisger said.

Zucker smiled and said, "Can I not come? I'm the chief creative officer of the company."

"exactly."

Vardy and others on the side also kept nodding their heads.

Although Zhu Ke often does not come to icq company, he is definitely qualified to serve as the chief creative officer. The proposed functions are all in line with the development of icq, making it clear the future development as soon as it comes out.

Can it not fit?

Zhu Ke is a traveler. Even if he was a person from the Great Celestial Dynasty in his previous life, he didn't know the specific functions of icq, but didn't he understand qq?

Free software download;

Membership level title;

Recharge members, enjoy text color, membership level acceleration, text effects and other functions;

While developing the English version, the minor languages ​​of other countries are also being developed;

......

Suggestions like this, Zucker mentioned a lot.

In particular, page simplification and the development of non-English languages ​​are particularly important.

The icq of the last life, with its amazing creativity and free concept, shocked the world once it came out, setting off a craze of "online chat" all over the world, even in non-English-speaking Asian regions, it also occupied 70% of the market .

Of course, due to the lack of development in non-English languages, many non-English-speaking countries quickly launched icq-like instant messaging software in their own languages.

For example, the qicq of the Great Celestial Dynasty, and the qq that imitates qicq.

Icq's wrong operation made it quickly lose the market in many countries around the world.

Therefore, it is particularly important to develop non-English languages ​​in a targeted manner!

Secondly, the simplification of the page is also very important.

Too many functions will make the page of the software appear too bloated, and at the same time, many functions are not used by many people, which will greatly hurt the user's experience.

"I have made so many suggestions, I don't believe that icq will not be as high as the previous life."

Of course, Zu Ke wants to think about it, but he will never blindly believe that icq will occupy the market of all countries in the world.

Thinking back to the giants such as Amazon, Google, Yahoo, Facebook, etc. in the early 2000s, when they entered the Great Celestial Dynasty, which of them were not menacing, they were like the second child in the world.

But what is the result?

Disastrous ending!

So Zucker's purpose is very clear from start to finish!

That is to push icq to a higher height than the original time and space, and then successfully sell the equity in his hands!

"Please, I'm just an ordinary transmigrator!"

"In my last life, I said that I was half of the entertainment industry, but in fact, I was just an ordinary diaosi!"

"It's already very difficult to run a film company at this stage. If you run a few more companies that eventually failed in the original time and space, you mustn't be blind."

"How can I do this?"

"I don't think I have the ability to reverse the fate of companies that have gone to failure in the original time and space."

"Um,

Even if he has the ability to reverse his fate by mistake, I will not do it. I am just a shareholder. If the company's equity is all mine, then I can't say that I can fight for one. "

"As for icq?"

"Forget it, when it reaches the peak, it's ok to sell it!"

Zhu Ke kept looking at the technicians, operating and testing the icq1.0 version on the spot, and his mind had already entered the rhythm of fantasies.

......

"Mr. Wald, we have completed the 1.0 version of positiveness that we have developed, and the results of the one-week test are also quite perfect. Our various server equipment can at least allow 1 million people to be online at the same time." Chief Technology Officer Goldfinger said.

Zhu Ke nodded and said: "At this stage, it is amazing to be able to meet 1 million people online at the same time, but it is not enough. I think we will continue to add servers. In the future, we will be able to meet tens of millions of people, or even hundreds of millions of people at the same time. Just online."

Wisig, Vardy and others also agreed on the spot.

Although young people have no money, they are definitely not lacking in energy.

In the ensuing time, Zucker made another suggestion.

"You mean movie placement?"

Wesger was surprised: "Zuke, you are right, the placement of advertisements for popular movies has indeed greatly promoted the early promotion of our products, but there is no money in our company's account now! "

Vardy also said: "No money is the biggest problem."

Goldfinger sighed: "In addition to money, it is also very important to choose a movie that has not been released and has high box office potential."

money?

High-grossing movie?

Hehe~!

Zucker is really a chicken thief.

You don't have money, but I have money; you don't know about unreleased movies with high box office potential, but I have them!

"Juno" grossed $140 million at the North American box office.

Moreover, the vast majority of the audience of the movie are still young people, which is particularly important for young groups on the Internet.

"Everyone, don't forget, I am the chief creative officer of icq company, and also the owner of a film company. The film "Juno" produced by our company will be released in the near future. I can add implants to the film. Ads. Well, of course I'll be charged."

The words fell, and the entire office fell silent on the spot.

Zucker added: "Of course, I'll give the company a good price, $300,000."

$300,000?

It's really not expensive for just placing ads.

The problem is that the icq company has no money!

Zucker laughed again: "Money is not a problem. I have it! I can continue to invest more."

For a while, the entrepreneurial team such as Wesger fell into the discussion.

Zu Ke was not in a hurry, just watched them discuss.

In the end, Wesger and others gave in!

Wisig is very shrewd, yes, but lack of money at this stage is their biggest disadvantage.

Because the 1.0 version of icq has been completed, and at the same time, Zhu Ke's equity ratio is already very high, reaching 40%, so even if Zu Ke makes an additional investment this time, he will not get a lot of equity.

An additional $500,000 will take another 5% stake in icq.

Zu Ke accumulated his icq equity to 45% in one fell swoop.

Properly the largest individual shareholder at this stage!

......

Back at Wald Pictures in Burbank, Los Angeles, Zucker immediately asked Victor to contact director Linklater and asked him to recall some of the actors and staff of the "Juno" crew to add several sets of advertising placements. lens.

"Boss, this icq is also your company?" Victor asked.

Zucker waved his hand and said with a smile, "It doesn't count. I just took a little share."

A little stake?

That is to say, the Wisgers are not here, otherwise they will definitely condemn Zuke's shamelessness.

It's more than 50 his mother, and he even said that he only has a little share?

Unparalleled blessings, misfortunes do not come singly!

The ancients did not deceive me!

The good news that Icq is about to launch has already made Zucker excited. No, just a few days later, I received some good news.

All 40 episodes of the first season of "SpongeBob SquarePants" have been completed.
