Reborn coal boss? No! I will rejuvenate the country through science and technology!

Hearing Spielberg's words, Cameron's heart skipped a beat, fearing that Lin Yuan would change his mind.

However, he didn't mean to blame Spielberg.

After all, Lin Yuan is Spielberg's new boss. From Spielberg's perspective, he has the obligation to remind him.

However, Lin Yuan's next answer made Cameron feel relieved.

"Need not"

"I've enjoyed Mr. Cameron's previous work. I have trust in Mr. Cameron's ability"

"Mr. Cameron’s sign is worth 160 million."

Lin Yuan complimented Cameron casually.

He understood Spielberg's worries.

No one else would have invested $160 million in Cameron so easily.

But who made him a reborn person?

He already knew the correct answer in advance, so what else did he have to worry about?

After listening to Lin Yuan's words, Cameron's affection for Lin Yuan greatly increased, and he was even moved a lot.

Just because he admired him, he He readily invested US$160 million.

How much trust does this put in him?

"Mr. Lin, please rest assured, I will definitely make this film a success! You will never get a return on your investment!"

Cameron's face straightened up and he solemnly assured Lin Yuan.

After hearing this, Lin Yuan replied:

"Don't be so serious, just relax. Just go and shoot as you originally planned."

As long as Cameron completes the filming of"Avatar" as smoothly as it did in the original historical time and space, he will not lose money on this investment.

"By the way, if Mr. Cameron doesn't find me to invest today, what are you going to do? Lin

Yuan asked curiously.

He wanted to know how Cameron solved this problem in the original historical time and space.

"Mr. Lin, just call me James."

Cameron first said this to Lin Yuan, and then replied:

"A friend introduced me to two foreign PE funds. If there was no investment from Mr. Lin, I would go abroad to talk to them in a few days and strive for their investment."

Cameron replied.

Hearing what Cameron said, Lin Yuan remembered it.

Before his rebirth, he accidentally saw in a report that among the investors of"Afa", except Fox Pictures In addition, there are two fund companies named DuneEntertainment and IngeniousMedia.

They are probably the investors that Cameron originally planned to find.

"So now you don't have to waste time traveling abroad, you can focus your time and energy on filming movies. Lin

Yuan said casually.

A smile appeared on Cameron's face, and he replied with a smile:

"Mr. Lin is right."

Tonight is really a big surprise for him.

He originally just wanted to give it a try, but he didn't expect it to go so smoothly.

This Mr. Lin, who is more handsome than the male stars in Hollywood, is really his The noble man!

Cameron felt a little more grateful to Lin Yuan in his heart.

Afterwards, the three of them drank and chatted.

In the process, they inadvertently mentioned the conflict just now.

It was discovered that Lin Yuan was very interested in Richard Ji. After Er and Sharon Stone were really disgusted, Cameron immediately told Lin Yuan that he would use his connections in Hollywood to block these two people, just like Spielberg.

Although Spielberg took action, this The two of them basically have no way out in Hollywood.

But Cameron is willing to help, and Lin Yuan is happy to accept it.

This will allow Richard Gere and Sharon Stone to die more clearly.

The three of them chatted After a while, Cameron had something to say and left.

Not long after Cameron left, a slender middle-aged man wearing a black turtleneck T-shirt and a pair of jeans walked towards the two of them.

"Hi Steven, happy birthday!"

When he came in front of the three people, the middle-aged man congratulated Spielberg.

"Steve, thank you. Spielberg thanked the middle-aged man.

Then, Spielberg said to Lin Yuan:

"Boss, let me introduce to you, this is……"

"Steve Jobs, CEO of Apple."

Before Spielberg, Lin Yuan revealed the identity of the middle-aged man.

Moreover, Lin Yuan took the initiative to reach out to Jobs:

"Hello Mr. Jobs, my name is Lin Yuan, nice to meet you."

"Hello Mr. Lin, nice to meet you too."

Jobs reached out and shook hands with Lin Yuan very politely.

"Steven, Mr. Lin is my new boss. Earlier today, Mr. Lin acquired DreamWorks."

At this time, Spielberg introduced Lin Yuan's identity to Jobs.

"Hey, I heard that you have already reached an agreement with Universal Pictures. Why did it suddenly change?"

Jobs was a little surprised by the news.

"Because that bastard Jeff Immelt went back on his word and suddenly asked us to slash our prices."

Spielberg replied angrily.

He still has a lot of resentment towards General Motors CEO Jeff Immelt.

The main reason is that Jeff Immelt's behavior is too contemptuous of him, a top Hollywood boss. Director, especially the attitude that DreamWorks was worthless, deeply hurt his self-esteem.

"This is quite in line with Jeff's style. People who study mathematics are always good at calculations."

Jobs started teasing Jeff Immelt.

As business tycoons from the Eagle Country, he and Jeff Immelt naturally knew each other.

Spielberg didn't want to continue talking about Jeff Immelt. The person he hated changed the subject and said to Jobs:

"Steve, I would like to congratulate you. From now on, you are Disney's largest individual shareholder. After congratulating

Jobs, Spielberg said to Jobs as if he were joking:

"Without you at the helm, Pixar will no longer be a rival to DreamWorks Animation."

"Haha, Steven, don't be too happy too early. After joining Disney, Pixar will only become more powerful."

Jobs replied with a smile.

Although his Pixar Animation and Spielberg's DreamWorks Animation were competitors in the past, his personal relationship with Spielberg was actually very good.

Otherwise, he would not be attending this event. Pierberg's birthday party.

Lin Yuan also knew what the two were talking about.

Not only because he had heard about it in his previous life, but also because it had been widely reported by the media at this time.

Disney Pixar Animation was acquired at a price of US$74.

The US$7.4 billion consisted of both cash and stock.

After the acquisition, Jobs, as the founder of Pixar, obtained 6.05% of Disney's stock, thus becoming Disney's largest individual shareholder

"With 7.4 billion US dollars, Disney, this little mouse, is really arrogant. Lin

Yuan sighed in his heart. The reason why he chose to acquire DreamWorks instead of Pixar was that in addition to considering that DreamWorks only has animated films, another reason was that he was reluctant to spend so much money to acquire an animated film company. company.

You know, more than ten years later, after experiencing various inflations, DreamWorks Animation sold hundreds of millions of dollars.

Speaking of which, Jobs is indeed a great business tycoon who changed several industries in the original historical time and space.

After acquiring the computer animation department of Industrial Light & Magic to establish Pixar Animation Company, it took less than twenty years to use three-dimensional animation to defeat Disney's two-dimensional animation, an established animation film company giant, and start a new era of animation. A new era of animated films.

Disney was forced to cooperate with Pixar Animation.

When Jobs had a conflict with Disney's former CEO Eisner, he completely ignored Disney's possession of the copyrights to all Pixar movies and characters. incident, and decisively led Pixar to terminate its cooperation with Disney.

Then, when faced with the frustration of Pixar employees because of the loss of all animated character copyrights, Jobs only used a one-minute speech to appease all employees and let them Rekindling fighting spirit.

A few months later, Jobs led Pixar Animation to produce the animated feature film"The Incredibles", and with a global box office of US$631 million, it once again set a new record for the global animated film box office held by Pixar itself. record.

In contrast, Disney tried to prove its masterpiece"Treasure Island" in the era of 3D animation, but suffered a disastrous failure. With an investment of 1.4 US dollars, the global box office was only 190 million US dollars, which is less than three times the box office results. The main line is much different.

This movie is also considered to be one of the biggest losses in Disney's history.

The wildly different results of the two movies made Disney finally know that without Pixar, they really can't play 3D. animated movie.

As a result, Disney's board of directors directly dismissed CEO Eisner, who had a huge personal conflict with Jobs, and appointed Iger, who had a good relationship with Jobs, as Disney CEO.

Then, Iger convinced the board of directors to pay $74 , acquired Pixar Animation as a whole.

All transactions have been completed a few days ago

"As expected of Gang Leader Qiao!"

Lin Yuan praised in his heart. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

He still admires Steve Jobs very much.

This is a true business genius with a great talent for product knowledge. Entrepreneur.

In the original historical time and space, Lin Yuan personally felt that although the market value of Apple was still rising after the death of Steve Jobs, it lost the surprise and magic of its products. To put it simply, that is It lacks the kind of evolution that"changes the world again" and is more of a conservative update.

However, appreciation is appreciation.

Lin Yuan will not change his layout in the field of smartphones because of this.

In this life, Steve Jobs will never have another The opportunity to obtain the transcendent status in the original historical time and space.

The first person in smartphones will only belong to him, not Steve Jobs.

Reborn with the system and dual BUFFs, if he can't beat Apple again, then he can really find someone Block Tofu killed himself.

Moreover,

Lin Yuan’s ambition in this life is not only to replace the position of Apple mobile phone in the original historical time and space, but to make Qingtian mobile phone more powerful than Apple mobile phone!

It’s in Lin Yuan’s mind While thinking about these many thoughts, Spielberg asked curiously:

"Steve, why did you suddenly decide to sell Pixar Animation? Don’t you plan to continue making animated films? Although after the transaction was completed, Jobs publicly stated:"In name, Disney is acquiring Pixar, but in essence it is a reverse acquisition." Because from now on, the animation world of Disney belongs to Pixar."

But in any case, after selling Pixar as a whole, Jobs lost control of Pixar.

With Jobs's autocratic style of business management, if he had not planned to withdraw from animated films The production industry will definitely not choose to sell Pixar Animation as a whole.

"Because he has to concentrate on making iPhones! Lin

Yuan answered Spielberg's question in his mind.

According to the past life memories in his mind, Jobs at this time should focus all his energy on the research and development of the first-generation Apple mobile phone.

Therefore, he is unwilling to work at Pixar. It's a waste of energy on animation.

Sure enough,

Jobs's answer did not surprise Lin Yuan.

"Yes, I've lost interest in animated filmmaking"

"Next, all my energy will be used to develop a new product, which will be a product that changes the world!"

Two gleams shot out of Jobs's eyes.

This is a product that he has put all his efforts into, and it will be a transcending era device.

After hearing this answer, Spielberg asked curiously:

"Could you please tell me what product it is?"

"This cannot be said, you will know it when it is released in the future."

Jobs replied with a smile.

Jobs attached great importance to the confidentiality of the first-generation Apple mobile phone.

In order to keep it secret, Jobs spread all kinds of false information. Even within Apple, many people who developed the functions of Apple mobile phones did not know What he researches is mobile phones.

Many Apple mobile phone R&D engineers finally found out that the technology they developed was originally used in Apple mobile phones at the launch conference of the first generation of Apple mobile phones.

Therefore, Jobs naturally will not be there. At this time, he told Spielberg the information about the Apple mobile phone.

However, at this time, Lin Yuan on the side said something that made Jobs' face change:

"I know what product Mr. Jobs is going to develop"

"Mr. Lin, do you know? No! This is impossible!"200

Jobs said categorically.

He asked himself that he had done a perfect job in keeping the research and development of Apple mobile phones a secret.

Except for a few people, no one knew that he was leading Apple to develop mobile phones.

Even among the Apple mobile phone team , he kept strict confidentiality.

The software team did not know the work content of the hardware team, and the hardware team did not know the work content of the software team.

Although this would affect the development progress of Apple mobile phones.

But Jobs believed that this was It was completely worth it.

Therefore, Jobs never believed that Lin Yuan knew what he was doing.

Looking at the confident Jobs, Lin Yuan smiled faintly and did not answer. He just made a move towards Jobs, which made Jobs' face change wildly.

"How did you know?"

Jobs' face was full of disbelief. He was even a little confused.

He simply couldn't figure out how Lin Yuan, a native of Longguo from the other side of the ocean, knew about Apple's mobile phone under such strict confidentiality measures?

This is simply unbelievable. It’s incredible!

Lin Yuan did not answer Jobs’ question directly, but said to him:

"Let's find a private place to chat."

Jobs nodded.

Indeed, it is not suitable to communicate such an important matter at this banquet where people are coming and going.

"Steven, help me arrange a private room with Mr. Jobs so we can talk alone. Lin

Yuan turned to Spielberg and said

"no problem"

"Please come with me."

Then, Spielberg took Lin Yuan and Jobs towards the interior of the villa.

On the way, Lin Yuan called Chu Qiang.

A few minutes later,

Spielberg took Lin Yuan, Jobs and Chu Qiang , came to the study room in the villa

"Boss, this study is very quiet and suitable for you to talk."

"Okay, Steven, go ahead and do your work. I'll have a private chat with Mr. Jobs."

After Lin Yuan asked Spielberg to leave, he said to Chu Qiang:

"Brother Chu, you stand guard at the door and don’t allow anyone to come in until we end our communication."

Lin Yuan's tone was very serious.

"clear. Don't worry, boss, I will never leave and won't let anyone enter the study."

After Chu Qiang replied solemnly, he stood up and walked out of the study.

After leaving the study, he closed the door of the study and guarded the door.

Returning to the study

"Mr. Jobs, sit down and chat. Lin

Yuan pointed at the sofa in the study room.

As soon as the two sat across from each other, Jobs couldn't wait to ask:

"Mr. Lin, could you please tell me how you knew about this?"

Just now, Lin Yuan's action was very simple, that is, he raised his mobile phone to signal to Jobs, and then Jobs understood.

He was very puzzled that Lin Yuan knew about Apple's mobile phone.

He couldn't figure out the problem. Where is it?

He has obviously done a good job of keeping secrets, so how could the news be leaked?
