The Pope of Basketball Community

Chapter 106 [One step into the entertainment industry]

Yang Rui talked about the reality show project at the dinner table. The nature of the documentary, the camera does not shake, and the content is rich. The main content is food and accommodation, entertainment, and complaints. The host must be a humorous person who likes food.

Melanie listened very seriously. She was not only Scarlett's agent, but also a program producer. She was proficient in all kinds of work. She estimated that it would cost about 300,000 yuan to make a good film, which was absolutely low cost.

Yang Rui made it clear what he mainly shoots and what his style is. It is simpler than "A Bite of China", focusing on food, only looking for special delicacies, not deep mountains and old forests.

He also incorporated some elements of the future reality show "Food on the Journey", the purpose is to create a light comedy food reality show, with food as the main clue, through the form of talk show and reality show, to interpret "the world is so big, I want to go Taste" program concept.

Melanie was stunned after hearing this, because Yang Rui's idea was very advanced. "Have you consulted with a professional show producer? How long have you been planning it?"

"No, I thought about it after I came back from Toronto. I didn't have time to do these things before."

"..." Melanie was too shocked to speak.

In other words, this wonderful gourmet show was suddenly thought of by him? Such a person doesn't want to be in the entertainment industry to become a basketball coach?

When the United States wants to launch a reality show, it is generally operated by a team, groping and filming. What Yang Rui said is already more specific, and he even gave a few examples, as if he had hosted a food show.

Yang Rui liked to watch food shows in his previous life. He had watched all of "xfun Food Club", "The Lonely Gourmet" and so on. He knew what attracted the audience.

After a while, Melanie sighed: "I used to think that Scarlett was a genius and could become a good actress, so I brought her into the entertainment park. But compared to you, she is too ordinary."

Scarlett pouted: "Mom, don't you praise him too much?"

Melanie smiled. "When are you going to start filming?"

"As long as the photographer is in place, we can start at any time. We can start from New York and choose a route to travel."

Melanie said sternly: "Maybe you haven't thought about it. This show is likely to be a big hit. I plan to contact a crew to make a good filming. I will also contact the production and distribution. The copyright is yours. After the specific content is negotiated, a contract will be drawn up. how do you feel?"

Yang Rui smiled and said, "That would be great. I didn't know much about it at first. Can I invest 300,000 yuan? If the production is better, the money will definitely not be enough to finish one season, right?"

"Yes, I will pay the rest of the money." Melanie smiled and nodded approvingly.

Thomas listened in, and felt a little anxious at first. The other party said that this would definitely make money. Yang Rui also put on a gesture of not caring about money. How could there be such a negotiation?

Soon he figured it out again, Yang Rui really didn't care about money, he regarded Scarlett's family as friends, and if they had money, everyone would make money together, it's okay to make less money, and he cared more about the relationship between them.

Yang Rui's original intention of filming the reality show was to increase Scarlett's exposure and help her become famous in advance.

Moreover, Yang Rui also benefited.

Just two hours ago, they were still ignorant about filming, and they couldn't handle it on their own. Now they have stepped into the entertainment circle with one foot.

If you want to make money, you have to be capable. To make a lot of money first, you must have connections. They just set up an investment company, and now they have a big business.

After having a very pleasant dinner, Scarlett saw off the two of them and asked curiously, "Mom, you can actually get along with Jerry? Is he really that good? He's very good off the court?"

Melanie said with a smile: "You are so lucky to meet Jerry. I can't imagine how great he will be in the future. It is entirely possible to surpass our family."

"Really? Jerry said that he will be at the top of the rich list in the future." Scarlett laughed.

Melanie took a deep breath.

It seems that he underestimated his ambition.

She decided to communicate with her ex-husband, and let the siblings have a good relationship with Jerry and Thomas, which will definitely be beneficial in the future.

Yang Rui had already sent the proposal document for the reality show idea, and Melanie sent another copy to Einar Johnson's mailbox.

When Yang Rui and Thomas returned home, they leaned back on the sofa and watched TV. Thomas lowered his voice and asked, "Who did you learn about business from? You have changed more and more from before."

"What kind of business? I just feel that this vacation is very long, and I want to find something fun to do. How about watching TV in New York for a few months? Even if I can't earn a penny and only spend money, I will do it."

Thomas didn't believe it, and said with a smile: "I hope you and she won't both be fat when we come back from the game."

"Aren't you going? With your image, the ratings must be higher." Yang Rui asked. Shooting together will be a precious memory in the future.

Thomas shook his head. "If I didn't see your software plan, I would definitely go. Now I just want to go to Silicon Valley. How much time is wasted hanging out with you."

"Don't be in such a hurry, right?"

"Please, ICQ has been launched for how many years. If you don't finish a new software quickly, how can you compete with others? You will have time to play." Thomas thought for a while, and said seriously: "We will go to Los Angeles tomorrow, and then go to Silicon Valley."

"All right……"

Thomas is a playboy, and he often goes crazy when he is playing with his wife. When he works seriously, he is very motivated and doesn't want to wait for a moment.

It is not too early to start chat software now. In 1996, three Israelis, Vesger, Vardy, and Goldfinger, got together to develop software that enables people to communicate quickly and directly on the Internet. They named the new software ICQ, which means "ISEEKYOU (I'm looking for you)".

ICQ supports functions such as chatting on the Internet, sending messages, and transferring files. They set up Mirabilis company to provide Internet instant messaging service to registered users. The users of ICQ grew rapidly. Six months later, ICQ announced that it had become the instant messaging software with the largest number of users in the world at that time. In the seventh month, the official users of ICQ reached 1 million.

This year, ICQ was just acquired by America Online for 287 million US dollars, and the number of users exceeded 10 million at this time.

In Yang Rui's previous life, China's Tencent also borrowed from ICQ to make the famous Penguin software, and the first version will be released in 1999. In 2000, QQ defeated ICQ and became the king of domestic instant messaging software. At the same time, other domestic instant messaging software also gradually disappeared amid the rapid rise of QQ.

Now, the functions and pages of ICQ, in the eyes of Yang Rui, a future person, are too bad to be bothered to complain about.

Thomas snorted: "If you start a company in Silicon Valley, you definitely can't use the name of the investment company. You have already thought about doing this before, so you registered the domain name, right? You don't even discuss with me about such a big company name, it's disgusting gone."

"You don't like that name?"

"No, 'Facebook' is a nice name."
