Rebirth of America, this is my time

Chapter 268 A group of geniuses

In the past twenty-four hours, a miracle has occurred in Pennsylvania!

“After the Three Mile Island nuclear power plant accident, the Pennsylvania government took only 24 hours to relocate nearly 700,000 people within a 20-mile radius. This was simply an incredible migration! Pennsylvania The residents of the state have shown the world their ability to take action and their optimistic and tenacious spirit!

In this process, there are three private companies that we need to focus on. They are Destiny Games, which have been bringing us happiness in the past few years, and have brought us convenience in life in the past few decades. of McDonald’s and Coca-Cola.”

It is precisely because of their assistance and their donations that the local people were able to evacuate decisively in accordance with the requirements of the Pennsylvania government without any scruples.

To be honest, when I learned yesterday morning that as soon as the Pennsylvania government issued an evacuation order, Destiny Games had already issued a joint statement with McDonald's and Coca-Cola to donate money and materials to the local people affected by the disaster, and had already planned a rescue location. At that time, I was completely shocked.”

Because their ideas are so crazy!

“But four hours later, when the first batch of evacuees received the supplies they promised at their rescue points, I was immediately very happy, because Destiny Game, McDonald’s and Coca-Cola did what the Pennsylvania government failed to do. We are impressed by their behavior.”

“What surprised me even more was the statement released by Destiny Games through CBS yesterday. From the statement, we can see that Ethan Jones has a complete and meticulous plan for their video game national competition, and even has an emergency plan. it is done.

If before, there were still people who doubted that they might not be able to control such a huge event, and various problems may arise after the game officially starts, then now, I believe that all doubts can be wiped out! For others Video games may be a fast-growing industry for many companies, but for Ethan Jones, it’s a source of joy!”

And their donation to the victims of the Pennsylvania disaster, their emergency plan also reminds me of one thing. Before, Ethan Jones always said that he did the purpose of video games and the inventor of video games, senior consultant of Destiny Games It’s the same as Ralph Bell, which is wanting to bring joy to the world.”

“I don’t know if you feel happy now, but I know that those people who are eating McDonald’s burgers and drinking Coca-Cola should be far away from sadness at this moment. I know better that the fact of zero casualties makes Pennsylvania, the federal government, and us These people who are praying for Pennsylvania are very relieved...

In the early morning of March 30, all major media reported the shock of yesterday: some media described in detail the large-scale migration of nearly one million people; some media carefully interviewed local people, wanting to know where they were at this moment. Some media actively communicated with the Pennsylvania government to obtain first-hand information; some media also wrote about the good deeds of Destiny Games and called them models of the times.

No way, who made Destiny Game do it so beautifully this time?

In the past, every time an accident occurred, Destiny Games would simply donate money to help the affected people rebuild better, but this time, they rushed to the disaster area as soon as possible to provide practical supplies to the people in the disaster area. It really exceeded many people’s expectations.

This is not the case in previous disaster relief efforts where companies and charitable organizations have never stepped forward to take the lead.

But the speed displayed by the Destiny Game is unbelievably fast.

While other companies are waiting for news, Destiny Games is already preparing?

When other companies just received orders to evacuate, Destiny Games was already able to participate in disaster relief?

That kind of preemptive planning is simply a representative who has seen through everything, and it also shows extreme distrust of the Pennsylvania government. But at this moment, who would discuss such a matter?

If you don't praise someone when everyone else is applauding you, then you must be out of tune.

Of course, there are also doubts——

Some people think that providing junk food such as hamburgers, fries, and cola to people in disaster areas is not a good idea;

Some people also think that Destiny Game's disaster relief announcement will actually cause commotion among local people. It's just good luck that there was no accident this time. If there is an accident next time, you must take responsibility.

It's a pity that these outrageous remarks were blocked by angry colleagues not long after they appeared.

The hosts who were doing live TV said that compared with Pennsylvania's advice to 'evacuate on your own', Destiny Games' ability to provide food for supplies is already a very good behavior. When people are fleeing, what else do you want to do? Want to pay attention to health? Isn’t this nonsense!

Moreover, it is indeed better to provide Coke than mineral water at this time, because——

Although Coca-Cola is a carbonated drink, the sugar contained in it can quickly provide energy to people after running around and working hard. At the same time, the sweetness can also help people quickly get rid of tension.

“When people are forced to leave their homes, having something to drink to take their mind off their grief and give them peace of mind is the most important thing!”

As for the commotion and taking responsibility?

If there is a riot, it is also the responsibility of the Pennsylvania government!

If one person must be held responsible, it must be those officials in Pennsylvania!

And those bastards in Metropolis Edison!

If it wasn't because these people were stalling for time and wanted to handle emergencies on their own, how could the people near Three Mile Island start evacuating only 24 hours after the accident?

When various media discovered the clues of the incident and all turned the topic to the incident itself, on Wall Street, the stock prices of McDonald's and Coca-Cola were also quietly rising.

This is not because the financial capitalists on Wall Street are so kind and want to reward companies that participate in disaster relief. It is because McDonald's and Coca-Cola are very satisfied with the product transportation capabilities they have shown during the disaster relief process. At the same time, the food delivery behavior of these two companies during disaster relief will also make their brands more approachable, which will greatly help future publicity and image building.

For ordinary people, these things may be false.

But for capitalists, how to put junk food in a good coat is the most difficult thing.

With every successful marketing, more people will accept them.

Of course, no matter how high their stock price rises, it has nothing to do with Ethan Jones. After confirming that the supplies have been distributed and it is not difficult to rewrite the schedule, he feels relieved.

As long as the game can go smoothly, all the efforts will be worth it.

As for fame——

Hehe~

Who doesn't like that?

After dealing with the urgent problems encountered by the company, Ethan turned his attention to Gary Kurtz, George Lucas's queen producer and the current president of Destiny Pictures.

This guy, who has not done much serious official work since he took office, rushed over from Los Angeles today and handed Ethan an invitation letter from the American Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.

The content inside is very simple. The Academy would like to invite Ethan Jones to attend the 51st Academy Awards ceremony to be held on April 9 at the Dorothy Chandler Music Center in Los Angeles.

When Ethan saw the golden invitation letter, countless question marks suddenly appeared on his head, The Academy invited me to participate in the Oscars? Why? I'm not from the film industry.

This question prompted Gary Kurtz, the president of Destiny Pictures, to quickly reply: Uh-Boss, the main thing is that the Academy wants to give you an award in recognition of your outstanding contributions to the film industry.

??? Ethan was shocked.

He suspected that his ears had heard wrongly.

I even doubt that the sun today rises from the west.

What?

The academy wants to give me an award?

Is there something wrong?

I'm not an actor, I'm not a director, and I'm not a producer, so what kind of award can the Oscars give me? And also recognize my contribution to the film industry? Isn't this a joke?

I, Ethan Jones, have only invested in one movie so far, and it hasn't been released yet. In this case, I will beat up Warner, MGM, Disney, Paramount, and Columbia.

So, what does the academy want to honor me for?

Praise me for playing well?

Have you beaten those profit-seeking capitalists badly?

... The corners of Gary Kurtz's mouth twitched at the unobstructed words.

Although he knew that his boss was telling the truth, but——

Doesn’t this truth sound too hurtful?

Boss, this... Gary Kurtz thought for a while and finally organized his words.

The award the Academy wants to give you is an Honorary Oscar because you have connected traditional film entertainment and video games, giving the art of film new possibilities.

Star Wars is the most successful example. The win-win situation of box office and games will bring more opportunities to the film industry, and your next Alien and Starry Night are also a combination that the Academy is very happy to see. They I feel that this publicity model is unprecedented.”

... This explanation made Ethan roll his eyes.

Okay, Okay, Okay. He pressed his hands down to signal the other party to stop.

While I knew my actions changed the landscape of the film industry, I didn't believe the Academy would give me an award for it, so, honestly, why would they want to invite me?

Ethan felt that Gary Kurtz’s reason was too nonsense.

If the Academy really wanted to recognize his contribution to the film industry and the fact that he broadened his thinking for the film industry, then why didn't the Academy give him an award last year?

You know, Star Wars was a movie in 1977!

The related Oscars were held in 1978!

It’s already 1979!

Only then did the academy think of commending him?

What, I forgot this before, do you want to reissue it to him?

Or does the college live in Tongliao time? There are sixty days in a month?

When Ethan cast a don't kidnap look at Gary Kurtz, the president of Destiny Game immediately laughed and said: Boss, I can't hide anything from you. Those words just now should be from the academy. Because according to my investigation, the people who want to award you the award are actually other film companies...

Gary Kurtz was also a little surprised after receiving the invitation letter from the college.

Although the Oscar honorary award is indeed awarded to those who are not in the film industry but have made outstanding contributions to the development of the film, judging from the current situation, my boss Ethan Jones is qualified no matter what, but the Oscar honorary award Awards are generally awarded to outstanding contributors when they reach middle age or even old age. In other words, the contributions of outstanding contributors must be verified by time.

So, give an honorable mention to a guy like Ethan Jones who’s not yet twenty-four years old?

Isn't this funny?

After he asked around his friends, he found out that this award was awarded by several other Hollywood film companies and the Academy.

The purpose is also very simple, that is, to create a family-like situation to the outside world.

Didn't Ethan Jones just flip the table in Hollywood last month? This action directly caused the boss of Embassy Pictures to stop playing. The shareholders of Columbia Pictures didn't want to suffer, and Embassy Pictures Their fortunes were good, they were immediately spotted by Paramount, but the same could not be said for Columbia Pictures. Even if they put themselves on the shelves, no one outside the industry dared to make an offer.

The non-quotation behavior of industry insiders is actually quite understandable, because before this, the boss of MGM launched a hostile takeover of Columbia Pictures, which was then rejected by the U.S. Department of Justice.

Although there is a relationship between Ethan Jones and the obstruction.

But now that the merger of suspected monopolies in the industry has begun, it is impossible for the Ministry of Justice to make two completely opposite decisions in a short period of time.

The inability of insiders to acquire offers opportunities for outsiders.

In the past month and a half, many buyers have indeed been in contact with Columbia Pictures, but no matter which party comes to inquire about the price, it will be divided at first touch.

Because when buyers asked what the status of Ethan Jones's Destiny Pictures was in Hollywood, and whether they could still enjoy the same transcendent power in Hollywood as Columbia Pictures did before after acquiring Columbia Pictures, Columbia The chairman of the film industry was immediately speechless.

He didn't know how to answer this question.

And when he couldn't answer this question, the buyer became even more afraid to buy.

After all, not everyone is a TikToker.

Spending a lot of money to acquire a company, but still have to rely on other people's opinions before you act?

Doesn’t the person with this special code have a disease?

In addition to Columbia Pictures, MGM, which packaged the film library and filming rights, also encountered the same embarrassment. The outsiders who asked them also wanted to know who has the final say in Hollywood now.

When this kind of embarrassing problem appeared again and again, the shareholders who wanted to get rid of Columbia Pictures couldn't sit still. MGM, which had been paralyzed, couldn't help it anymore and wanted to find a way to break the situation. .

According to normal circumstances, as long as they and Ethan Jones appear on the scene at the same time and look like a family, the buyer's concerns can be dispelled. But how can you tell Ethan about this kind of thing?

They dare not.

So, using their little brains, they decided to save the country and asked the academy to give Ethan an Oscar. As long as Ethan accepted it, wouldn't the outside world know that everyone's conflicts were over?

After all, the Oscars are broadcast live across the United States!

When they appear on the scene at the same time...

Then doesn’t the outside world know that Ethan Jones has integrated into the Hollywood circle?

Oops! We are really a group of little geniuses!
