The Motherland Comes to the United States

Chapter 89 I don't like to ride in a convertible car, so how can I open my mind?
Bai Ye pouted.

I told you that she is a lady from a wealthy family, but you just don't believe me.

Do you know how powerful it is now?

Finished a cigarette.

……

Sunset dusk.

Bai Ye drove away from the snap company and was going to find Ikana.

Mercury Media's influence on Bai Ye is getting bigger and bigger, so it's better to implement the matter as soon as possible.

He sees Ikana again.

Ikana wears a close-fitting and soft elderly knit sweater, and a windbreaker with a drape fabric on the outside, which looks very textured overall.

It is worth mentioning that the inner wear is a light brown high collar, the outerwear is off-white, and even the high boots are matched with the color of the inner wear as much as possible. One dark and one light color, the material is soft on the outside and hard on the inside, achieving an incomparable harmony The overall look is elegant without losing the atmosphere.

"I'll help you with everything you want." Ikana threw a bunch of documents in front of Bai Ye and complained, "I was still working in the company before, but I was messed up by your phone call." .”

"It's really important." Bai Ye cheekily took out the document and looked at it, and said, "I also had an idea for an IP movie universe."

"Movie Universe?"

"The so-called movie universe is a movie concept with multi-dimensional and multi-dimensional character frameworks and plot stories to share or form a unified world view. The movie universe does not only refer to a series of movies, but can include multiple series of movies. Simple To put it simply, it is to make a 'movie' into a 'tv series'."

"For example, DC Comics has countless superheroes. We can shoot a single-player movie consisting of multiple heroes and gather them into a "Justice League" drama."

——In the Marvel world, there are DC comics, just as the DC world also has Marvel comics.

"Your idea is very interesting." Ikana thought for a while and said, "But just relying on some urban legends, are you sure you can form the so-called movie universe?"

"It's up to man." Bai Ye shrugged and said, "I've also recently become addicted to New York Strange Tales. I've watched more, so I came up with the idea of ​​a movie universe. In addition to the so-called Ghost Spider-Man, New York also has night monsters." Legends such as killers, thieves civets, and green giants, etc., we can use this to mix these strange stories under one world view and shoot multiple series of movies.”

"You really know how to open your mind..."

Ikana had a headache.

The most important thing in business is stability, but Bai Ye relies on self-willedness in doing business, and Ikana doesn't know what to say when she thinks about it.

This movie universe sounds very good. It is of course good if it can be developed, but good things are not necessarily correct. What if the development fails?It will definitely be a mess.

"What silly things are you talking about? I don't like to ride in convertible cars, so how could I have such a big brain?" Bai Ye made a hellish joke and handed Ikana a folder: "Look at this, what do you think?" So? It’s not like I didn’t prepare anything, so I just told you to do something, I’ve already completed a script.”

Ikana found the folder, opened it and saw the name of the script - "Spider-Man".

That's right, Bai Ye just modified the plot of Toby Spider's movie, and then showed it to Ikana.

The content inside is largely unchanged, but there are still a few changes. For example, the villain is not the Osborne Group, but the Rockson Group, the name of the pig's foot is not Peter Parker, but Harry Parker, and the heroine is not Called Mary Jane, but called Kem, and so on a series of changes, in short, it must have nothing to do with the reality of this world.

"Harry, if you know about it, you'll be very touched. I haven't even forgotten to help you pick up girls when I'm writing a movie script!"

Oh, my stupid O Doudou, look how much my elder brother loves you!

Ikana read the script very seriously. Of course, she didn't read it word by word, but the outline of the story.

While watching, she asked:

"Bai Ye, I've also read the strange story about the ghost spider. It's obvious that she's a girl. You just turned it into a blue boy. Is it really okay?"

"Then Ikana, tell me, in today's movies, are there more audiences from male perspectives, or female perspectives?"

"The male perspective has a lot of audience."

Ikana thought for a while before giving the answer.

This matter is actually very simple, and it is not gender discrimination or anything. It is simply that both men and women like to watch movies with a male perspective, but men do not like to watch movies with a female perspective.

So in Ikana's view, after Bai Ye changed the sex of Spider-Man, it can be all men and women, which is actually a very good idea.

"That's right!" Bai Ye said: "Now the feminist movement is indeed on the rise, and movies with a female perspective will become more and more popular, but for now, movies with a male perspective still occupy the mainstream."

half an hour.

Ikana closed the folder, nodded and said:

"It's a great story to watch!"

Although Ikana is not a professional Hollywood practitioner, during this period of time, she has been frantically making up her homework in this area, and the script is still understandable.

"Really?" Bai Ye grinned, took the credit for himself without hesitation, and said with a smile, "This is a story I created (copied) after racking my brains, how could it not be good-looking? Woolen cloth?"

He pointed to his head:

"In addition to this story, the general story of the development of the movie universe has a direction, so the movie universe can definitely be advanced."

"Bai Ye, there is a question that I really don't understand..."

"what?"

"You can start a financial company to make money, and you can write a script that is comparable to a Hollywood gold medal screenwriter, so how did you treat yourself like a waste before?"

"Haha, there is a problem with your way of thinking. I have always been me, and I have been doing what I like to do. Before, I spent my life and drunkenly, that's what I wanted to do. I have no money in the future. I must make money. Now I am rich and want to make movies for fun, so I will start to study how to make good movies. I am the eldest son of the Osborne family. Whether it is a waste or an elite, is there a big difference to me? ?”

Ikana had to admit, it made sense.

Bai Ye was born in the Osborne family, he was born a Celestial Dragon, whether he wants to be a waste Celestial Dragon who can only spit bubbles, or become a five-old star and red-haired, for him, the quality of life will not matter. What has changed.

Ikana rested her chin on her hand and said:
"But in this way, there is a problem in front of us. Originally, the two of us planned to use "The Hunger Games" as Mercury Media's pioneering work. Now that we have the script of "Spider-Man", which one should we shoot first? "

——Mercury Media has been established, and the registered capital of 15 billion U.S. dollars has already entered the company's account. Even if Mercury Media did not acquire Summit Entertainment, it will definitely acquire other small and medium-sized film companies and start filming.

"Let's shoot "The Hunger Games" first, and then "Spider-Man." Bai Ye said casually: "It's not a big deal."

"As Bai Ye said before, with the rise of the feminist movement, the audience for movies with a female perspective will increase, but so far, the mainstream is still movies with a male perspective, and it may always be..." Ikana said: "So, Bai Ye, don't you think that "Spider-Man" is actually more suitable as the pioneering work of our Mercury Media?"

"Well……"

Bai Ye thought for a while, "The Hunger Games" is the pioneering work of Mercury Media, the main reason is that Bai Ye wants to use the film's publicity ability to try to gain book fans, and the secondary reason is because it is a movie with a leading heroine. It's very suitable to shoot Tangtang, now it's "Spiderman"...

How should I put it, this is related to Bai Ye's future grand strategy.

In fact, it really doesn't matter which one is shot first.

"It's up to you. I'm not very interested in the work of operations. I'll shoot whichever one you say is suitable!"

"Then it's settled!" Ikana said firmly: "Let's shoot "Spider-Man" first, and then launch "The Hunger Games". Our Mercury Media will definitely be a big success."

"Then I will congratulate you in advance, CEO of Mercury Media, Miss Ikana."

Bai Ye joked.

"It's just that the top priority now is to complete the acquisition of Summit Entertainment!" Ikana said: "Mercury Media has such a huge cash flow of 15 billion U.S. dollars, even without Summit Entertainment, it will definitely be able to do something big. Summit Entertainment is indeed the most cost-effective approach."

Hearing Ikana talk about cost-effectiveness, Bai Ye couldn't help but think of something: When he was in college, there was a boy who borrowed money from his roommates in order to catch up with a girl in his class. He sat next to the girl every day and told her Listen to different jokes, take her out to eat out after class, and buy flowers and watches to give away snacks during the holidays, and he often eats instant noodles in the dormitory, and sometimes he is reluctant to eat hot dry noodles that cost 6 yuan a piece. One time he finally made an appointment to travel with a girl, but the girl brought her best friend, and he spent 5 at once, and his credit card was overdrawn.

We asked him where he was going.He said it was outside.We ask, what perimeter?He said and held hands.The girls’ dormitory couldn’t stand it anymore. A girl’s roommate secretly told him that the girl often said in her dormitory that he was a diaosi, not her boyfriend, and that she had contact with him only for the delicious food.

After hearing this, Lao Lu didn't return home that night, and came back during the day with a tired face.We were afraid that he would be stimulated, so we let him rest quickly, and at worst, we would chase another one.Who knows that he said, stop chasing, and stop communicating. Only last night did I know what value for money is.

Thinking of the past, Bai Ye couldn't help laughing.

"What are you laughing at?"

Ikana was puzzled.

"It's nothing, um, it's time to proceed with the acquisition of Summit Entertainment." Bai Ye coughed twice and said, "Tomorrow I will accompany you to Los Angeles and talk about it."

"Ah."

Ikana nodded.

She has almost handed over the important matters in her company, and she can let go of her hands and start to officially accept Mercury Media.

Well, originally there were still many details, and she wanted to do everything from the beginning to the end, but Bai Ye's bragging was too hasty, and she couldn't bear it at all. What should I do, I can only focus on the big and let go of the small, let's get busy with Mercury Media's affairs first , After all... The things at home are at most a matter of several million or tens of millions of dollars. How can it compare to Mercury Media's capital operation of hundreds of millions of dollars.

"It's getting late, let's go have dinner together?" Bai Ye looked at his phone and said, "Let's continue discussing the rest of Mercury Media."

"Okay."

Ikana didn't refuse.

then.

She got into Bai Ye's car and came to a private restaurant that was not open to ordinary people.

"Bai Ye, you ordered so many oysters...can you finish it?"

Ikana looked at the big plate of oysters in front of the two of them speechlessly, and said.

"Of course I can finish it!"

Bai Ye was wearing gloves, holding a knife in one hand and an oyster in the other, with the raised side facing down and the flat side up, finding a gap, the knife went in through the gap, opened it with a pry, dipped it with Dip in red wine vinegar, chopped shallots, black pepper and other spices, and then put it in your mouth.

"Wow... very delicious! The name of the king of oysters in Belon is well-deserved."

French Belon oysters, known as the best oysters, can be called the "king of oysters". They are flat oysters and are produced in the French Belon Estuary where the brackish and fresh water meets. Because the waters there are clear and rich in plankton, The bred oysters have distinct characteristics, with sweet seaweed and iodine flavors, and a stone-fruit-like aroma. The taste is crisp and elastic, with strong minerals and even slightly irritating. Not everyone can accept it, but it makes people Many gourmets flock to it.

A Belon oyster usually needs to grow for four years, and then placed in seawater for two months to increase fat, so as to cultivate the unique flavor of Belon oyster, the meat is luscious, and the taste is fresh and tender.This kind of top quality material, just hearing this wild name makes people excited.

"Ikana, you can eat it too, it's delicious."

Bai Ye had a mouthful of raw oysters and a mouthful of Chardonnay from the Chablis production area.

"I……"

Ikana sighed.

Oysters are things like aphrodisiacs. Before Bai Ye relied on her own physical fitness, it was enough to make Ikana feel uncomfortable. Now that there are so many oysters, Ikana feels that she is afraid tonight. It's going to be a bloodbath.

With grief and indignation, Ikana also began to eat.

Well, let alone, Belon oysters are delicious.

While eating dinner, Bai Ye chatted:
"In addition to Summit Entertainment, you also need to register a comic company recently. The name of the company... let's call it Marvel Comics, and start serializing a story about the world view of superheroes, compared to DC Comics. Spider-Man Harry Parker, just as the first superhero..."

Playing Marvel comics in the Marvel world, Bai Ye thinks about it, it's quite exciting.

Of course, it is impossible for him to copy the specific content from his previous life, and it must have undergone some localized transformations. Just like Gwen's Spider-Woman transformed into Spider-Man, it is impossible for Bai Ye to reveal his identity as a "prophet".

Basically, for the so-called superhero, he comes up with a beginning, and the rest is handed over to the writers recruited by the company for follow-up creation.

He is the son of a chaebol, a top rich man worth tens of billions of dollars, of course he can't give himself a headache all day long about how to copy.

The feeling of launching banknotes is still good.

"It would be great if you could buy DC comics." Ikana said: "Then your movie universe plan can be regarded as having a real foothold. Directly apply the DC worldview, using the superheroes in it, come to IP development, instead of racking our brains for timely creation as we do now, and now constructing a hard superhero worldview.”

"I think so too, but how could Warner sell DC to us?" Bai Ye smiled and said, "If it had been 20 years earlier, maybe we would have had a chance to get DC comics, but now DC comics have become Warner's core. The core interest among the interests, unless we can buy the entire Warner, otherwise...don't even think about it."

Ikana pursed her lips and said with a smile, "I just said it casually. Of course, I know that Warner can't sell DC Comics to us, and with Time Warner's market value of more than 1000 billion US dollars, we seem to be unable to afford it. Well, even if If you can afford it, don’t buy it, and buy Time Warner just for a DC comic, it’s too stupid, and the price/performance ratio is too low.”

"That's right." Bai Ye nodded, "If you can afford it, you won't buy it."

In fact, Bai Ye is really, if he can afford DC comics, he doesn't buy them either, because he develops Marvel comics because he wants to vigorously develop the IP of the motherland, and the core of all cores is for this, to make money Anything is secondary.

Moreover, Tony has already waved a nuclear stick in the cave in Afghanistan, and the curtain of the Marvel world is about to open. Marvel comics can create superheroes that exist in reality, and they can have continuous enthusiasm. Compared with it , DC Comics is a fart?
Now Marvel Comics is really weak when it was first started, but when superheroes such as Iron Man, Spiderman, Thor, Hulk, Captain America, etc. have stepped onto the stage of the times, Marvel Comics will be awesome.

After chatting for a while about the development of Mercury Media, Bai Ye said:

"Ikana, I guess you're going to be very busy these days, the kind who's so busy that you can't keep your feet on the ground. Do you need to give you some rewards in advance? Just say it!"

"For the reward..."

Ikana thought for a while and said:
"When I was at Gucci, my tears were always Prada Prada's Dior..."

white night:"……"

"No problem, I'll take you to the specialty store in a while."

Isn't it just Gucci, Prada and Dior, I will buy you as much as you want.

After eating the delicious food, Bai Ye took Ikana to go shopping, major luxury stores, whatever Ikana wanted.

But after only half an hour of shopping, Ikana received a call from her home asking her to go back, so Ikana could only say sorry to Bai Ye, and then carried the big and small shopping bags, Hurry up and go home.

"Crap!" Bai Ye looked at Ikana's round back, and said without tears: "I ate so many oysters just for the night, but you ran away halfway, what should I do? I will Couldn't sleep all night!"

"Could it be that little girl Ikana is directing and acting on her own?"

Bai Ye was a little skeptical, but he was too lazy to pursue it. The question now is, who should he spend the night with?
After thinking about it, Bai Ye drove to Tangtang's house by car.

When he came to the door of Tangtang's house, he took the key and opened the lock. When he opened the door, he saw a...

Peach.

In the center of the room, there is a yoga ball with a woman lying on it.

Back to the white night.

Put your figure on the yoga ball in a posture of bending over, kneeling, standing up, and hips.

S-class curves, fit tightly in tights.

So standing at Bai Ye's angle, I was just able to see that round, nearly perfect curve and proportion...peach buttocks.

Bai Ye was stunned.

Hearing the gatekeeper's voice, Tangtang turned her head, saw Bai Ye, and blinked:

"Brother, why are you here!?"

Q: What do you do when you accidentally see a woman with a perfect body, wearing a bodysuit, doing yoga with her back turned to you?
A: "Excuse me", and exit the room.

B: "Excuse me, ma'am", exit the room.

what would you say
Bai Ye is a man who does not take an unusual path, so he took a deep breath and said, "I'm sorry, ma'am!"
