Chapter 111 Home Selling Cash Incentive Plan Otaku Feedback
It's night, study room.
Perhaps it was because he was in a good mood, so after Roland entered the room, he leaned on the sofa, cosplaying Uncle Ge.
Not only that, but he, who likes to listen first and then talk, is also the first to speak this time.
"David, everything out there is hype."
"What the media circulated was all public relations drafts."
"I'm not in a relationship, of course, she does like me..."
That's right, in Roland's view, David, a responsible parent, called himself into the study at night, talking about nothing more than the love between men and women. Maybe he would have a relationship with the traditional American father Same, throw it to yourself—of course, in order to avoid such an embarrassing situation, Roland decided to open the skylight and speak honestly.
However, just when he thought that with his showdown, David would nod in tacit agreement and let him go out, when he heard the bearded man explaining the words, he froze on the spot, "That—Roland... "
"Of course I know all this is hype, I didn't even think about asking..."
"Huh?" Roland, who felt good about himself, looked dull.
‘Didn’t think to ask? '
‘Uh… I got it wrong? '
Roland raised his eyes and met David tacitly. His confidence was instantly replaced by embarrassment.
Coughed, and quickly changed the subject, "Then—what do you want to tell me?"
The blunt words made David understand. How could he not see that Roland is very happy today?
Not only that, he was even more amazed by that not-so-intelligent Yazi.
Although he really wanted to know what happened in the crew today to make Roland happy like this, but as a very tolerant parent, he decided to let Roland keep his own little secret.
"What I want to tell you is the filming location of "Home Alone"."
That's right, the reason why David went to Roland was naturally not for romance, but for the shooting location, villa, or money.
At the beginning, in order for Roland to enter the group smoothly, David contributed to the community that he was about to end.
Although there was a delay of more than half a year in the opening of the sale, the result was finally good. The movie sold well, and the limelight brought by the big sale also added a lot of value to the community. , but also made a small profit.
While selling the villa, because I was thinking about the sequel, the villa where the crew filmed has been kept until now.
To put it bluntly, David, a businessman, might not have had the idea of looking forward to the third, and to the fourth...
But the problem is, after seeing the powerful publicity from the outside world, he didn't think about three, four, five.
He is well versed in publicity, and he understands that since Fox, the Jewish gang, and the big golden retriever can blow this wind so loudly, then the second is obviously the end of Roland's series. value, since this is the case...
"I just want to sell it."
"Sell the villa?"
"sure!"
After hearing David's real intention, Roland was not shocked, but felt that it should be taken for granted!
Developers take land to build houses, isn’t it just for sale?
Now it is the promotional outlet of "Home Alone 2", so it is more advantageous to negotiate the price at this time!
That's right, everything in the world can be traded, and the price of the filming location of a blockbuster movie can even be doubled!
Don’t think this is a daydream, let alone think that the villa will rot in your hands because of the price increase!
Because the receivers are actually colleagues!
In Hollywood, changing houses is like changing clothes for stars. Some people are bankrupt like Nicolas Cage, some are richer like Robert Downey Jr., and some are Someone like Matt Damon needs a better view, and someone who wants to divorce Kate Winslet and start over.
Of course, no matter how you change, everyone has an unwritten rule, that is, if the former owner who takes over the house is also an insider, if he moved away sadly because of financial or coffee position issues, usually he will not There are celebrities who are willing to buy.
And if the former owner of the house is a powerful figure, or a place where a certain guy became famous, then let alone double it, even if it is three or four times, four or five times, there are people who are willing to buy it.
Just like the "American Idol" program launched by Fox, the houses where the contestants live will basically be taken by the next contestants, because they want to be popular...
The house in David's hands is obviously the latter.
Roland's real birthplace! Highest Grossing Christmas Comedy in the Guinness Book of World Records! Just such a gimmick can increase the value of the house! Not to mention, after that, Roland's star journey went smoothly!
"David."
"Just sell the villa directly."
"I can clearly reply to you now, even if there is a third part in the "Home Alone" series, I will not make it!"
After guessing the inside story of making money, Roland answered very happily.
If the wind blows and doesn’t materialize, isn’t that stupid?
Besides, he knew that he would never make a third film!
Not to mention that except for one and two sequels, the other sequels are all bad movies, but the little girl in three is the guy he covets!
What's more, Spielberg's question in the afternoon made him sad for a long time.
There are tickets, there are girls, there are games, and if the rest has no pursuit, what's the point!
Roland has even thought about it, after "Home Alone 2" is released, people will be staring at this series!
As long as the Sany project is established, it is time for him to show his talents!
As a senior, no, as a senior with a background, it is not too much to provide some correct life guidance to the younger generation, right?
Hey hey hey...
(ω)
The clean answer made David look at Roland a few more times.
Especially while narrating, the **** smile on Roland's face gradually made him feel that something was wrong with Roland! From feeling good about myself at the beginning, to now my self-confidence is bursting.
No matter how you look at it, he doesn't look like the usual calm guy!
David's scrutinizing gaze was also quietly captured by the daydreaming Roland.
In order to avoid his sweet dreams being exposed in advance, he—
Prepare the soles of your feet for oiling.
"If you came to me just to ask about the sequel, then I... just go back first?"
Seeing that something was wrong with Roland wanting to run away, David, who was still thinking about how to probe, immediately put aside these thoughts, shook his head and said, "Wait, there is one more thing... related to your game company. "
"Then you say..." Roland, who had already stood up, sat back down again.
Not only that, but the eagerness to leave also disappeared without a trace
No way, if it has to be counted, Blizzard can also be a little wife!
The decisive move from the heart, you can see that David's head is full of black lines, but he didn't get too entangled in the matter of why Roland got nervous, but said directly: "I have already given you the things you threw to me." It's over."
After receiving the mess Roland threw at him, David handed things over to his subordinates.
Acquisition, name change, these things don't need to worry about him at all, but in David's opinion, half a million is a bit much!
Blizzard is just a grassroots team right now!
A total of two games have been developed, one has been released, and the other is about to be released. In the absence of a popular IP and outstanding performance, the three earn 500,000 yuan a year, which is already an average of individuals. That's five times your annual income!
In this case, Roland still bought it, which can only be said to be a deep love.
Especially after the purchase, they have to find copyright and authorization for these grassroots teams, which is even more...
"I don't know what you think, anyway, I've done it for you."
"Also, the incentive plan you want is finished for you, promise, the document is here, take it and read it yourself."
Yes, from David’s point of view, buying Mohamy’s game company is simply a waste of money. If you have this spare time, you might as well buy Universal’s Naughty Dog, but in Roland’s eyes, 100% equity is, after all, There will be problems.
The three founders of the family directly became wage earners?
This is not a joke!
Mohamy and the others are indeed young now, they just want to make games, but as they grow older and batches of games appear in the world, don’t people think, I am famous now, if I go out and do it alone, can I do it? Earn more?
I had to sell the company to you Roland in order to make games, so after my name is famous in the industry, can I still start my own business? Or in other words, go to other places that are willing to give shares and continue to develop?
No matter how much the salary is, no matter how much the bonus is, it is just working for others!
It just doesn't taste right when you make it!
After the enthusiasm of youth is gone, what remains is reality!
Don't say it's impossible! Don't talk about tying people with dreams!
Xu-Zha-Fei can go to the sea to make a film, and it is even more impossible for Mohami to hang himself on a tree!
They can bear it now, and even think that Roland can buy the copyright for himself, which is simply a great thing! What about later? After people's wings are hardened, they always have some ideas, but after they resign, what do you want to do, Roland?
Recruit people to play games?
Roland understood that it was impossible to do it by himself.
In this way, people are the most important thing!
Now the three of them may just want to play games with peace of mind, or in other words, they sold the company to Roland to go towards the resources in Roland's hands, but even so, there must be a reward plan, because Roland wants It's their people, not an empty shell with the Blizzard name but no soul.
How to keep people in the company, this is what Roland asked David to do.
Because he doesn't understand, but David has a way to understand, and he won't charge a sky-high price of 100,000 an hour like the veteran cadre Minglou!
Looking at the plan, every time a top ten sales game in America is released, the Big Three have the right to buy shares at an agreed price, up to 3% at a time, and the upper limit is tentatively set at 11 points per person. At sixty-seven preliminary reservations, Roland...
Well, he doesn't know how those numbers are calculated.
But he knew that the price on the plan was really very low.
To put it bluntly, after Roland took over the grassroots team with 500,000 yuan, helped them obtain the authorization they wanted, and gave them a reward plan, the entire acquisition actually became a powerful helping hand in times of crisis.
When Mohamy and the others needed R&D funds and copyright authorization, Roland could help them realize their dreams, and when they realized their spiritual dreams and needed material pursuits, Blizzard could become their home again.
As for Roland, he just lived with them, and the bed was a bit big.
"Ok, that's it."
"If you have shares, you will be motivated. Otherwise, when they get married, they will bear the names of Blizzard executives and project planners. How ugly are these names! The chairman, CEO, and president of the world's top 500 will have no face if they say it Well!"
Looking at Roland's satisfied and smelly face, David rolled his eyes.
In his opinion, Roland just wanted to eat farts!
How dare a small broken company with a dozen people become the world's top 500 in the future?
This is even more unreliable than starting out in Hollywood and becoming a top 500 film company by yourself!
"You go, you go, go back and dream!"
"You are so weird today! I feel much more lively than usual, when I calm down, let's talk about other things!"
David waved his hand, signaling that Roland, whose brain circuit might be misaligned, quickly disappeared from his eyes.
After seeing his actions, Roland smiled and returned the file to the other party.
Before David could speak, he ran away in a flash!
There is a plan, implement it, you can help me do it too!
Capital is indeed very important, but Roland admits that he can't get it.
It’s okay to let him talk on paper, but let him march in formation. After that, everyone will be led into the ditch by him.
As Bill Gates emphasized, ‘The product is not important at all, but the important thing is sales! '.
Steve Jobs, who was ridiculed by him for not knowing technology, is also a marketing guru.
Roland never felt that he could do everything, and he didn't have the energy to do everything. He only knew that some people could be brought together to achieve his goal, and that was enough!
While shaking hands with the shopkeeper, Roland, who had returned home, also called Mohamy.
After learning that "The Lost Vikings" will be released on the same day as his own movie, Roland's face immediately elongated, "Oh, if you find me sooner, then I will implant the game cassette into "Little Ghost" Headed Home 2" went inside!"
"There is a scene of a toy store in there. Isn't it normal to sell game cassettes?"
"What a great ad! Just missed it!"
Of course, regretting only regretting, yelling loudly, there is no way to start all over again.
After obtaining satisfactory resources, Mohamy and the others didn't care about these small things, because at the moment they are thinking about 2D fighting games, and they are also preparing to recruit talents and want to study real-time strategy.
"Not enough money, tell me, want to poach people, tell me, want copyright, tell me, Ok?"
Although he didn't take advantage of the situation, Roland just complained casually.
In a good mood, he swelled like a puffer fish, and felt like he could float on the water.
And the joking words also made Mohamy on the other end of the phone happy. Not only that, he also cooperated solemnly: "Then let's dig Okamoto Yoshiki over..."
"Sorry for the interruption, goodbye!" If they were face to face, Roland would have kicked him up.
To make a fighting game, you need to find Yoshiki Okamoto, so when you make an MMORPG, do you want me to buy an EA?
If so, what do I want you to do?
You know, it is very simple to copy this word. After "Street Fighter 2" came out, it was a bunch of follow-up works. Even Wang Jing was involved in clever little don't understand, Shi Sheng, Liu Jianming, Wai Zai, Sun Wukong and Princess Jianning filmed "Super School Fighter" to pay tribute to "Street Fighter", "Dragon Ball" and "Terminator". Just Xiao Zhao's black ____, and white ____...
"Let's not talk about the game, you are responsible for these things, just bring it to me for a trial when it's done."
"I just called you to ask, how is the database? Has my news been updated?"
Yes, although the news from the outside world is overwhelming, Roland has not forgotten IMDb.
Although the network is still underdeveloped, being the first to settle in and following up one after another are two different concepts.
This is like Weibo, the first batch of users will naturally enjoy preferential treatment.
Although the current database has nothing to do with those social software, who doesn't want news about themselves to appear on the front page forever? And now that Mohamy and the others have an administrator account, they can operate in secret, right?
In the face of Roland's inquiry, Mohamy, an honest boy, also told the recent situation, "I have updated the articles sent to us by Catherine to the database for you, and according to the background visit, the group of people on weekdays Guys who talk about beautiful stars in the forum are now discussing in the forum, are you also a guy who looks at faces."
"For those techies, whether your relationship will make a breakthrough is what they want to know most. Of course, many people bet that you will reject her because the other party is not very beautiful."
"These are the data at this stage. Due to the small number of people and the single group, they are not of much reference."
"Of course, we will still import data for you once a week and give it to Catherine. As you said, every fan group should refer to it. We have channels, so we can use them..."
Feedback, the more the better!
Compared with the commercial water injection data in the future, the numbers of this era are more realistic.
He can ignore the traditional announcements, but this stuff must be watched!
After figuring out his image in the minds of those technical nerds, Roland also heaved a sigh of relief.
After all, according to the Internet thinking in the future, the majority of male groups generally hate this kind of hype very much.
And now...
It may be because people's interest has not been wiped out by those junk news because they have not entered the era of news explosion.
Since this is the case, he can safely look forward to the release of the movie.
Note: ①The house of the big fire star is super easy to sell. Many times the takeover is the management company. They buy the house and rent it to those tenants who need it (superstition). The most typical one is Jodie Foster, 89 After winning the film in 1992, a house worth more than six million was sold for nine million. In 1992, after winning the film, he used the money from selling the house to buy a house in Beverly Hills for 16 million. The house of a bankrupt star depreciates instantly. It is said on the news that it is sold at a low price, but it is not a cheap sale. It is because the house is occupied by a bankrupt star, so it is worthless. ②I read the comments, and some readers said that the acquisition of Blizzard for 500,000 yuan is too fake. I admit that this is copied. It is copied from the model of Sony’s acquisition of Naughty Dog. "Sent to the vice president of Global Interactive, Universal thought it was good, and signed a research and development agreement with them. Naughty Dog helped Universal develop "Crash Bandicoot". The problem is that the copyright of this research and development belongs to the investor. The factory, so when Universal sold itself to Vivendi, they accepted the olive branch thrown by Sony and became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sony. Within a few years, the founder left without a share. Since the 1980s, successful game developers have basically been wholly acquired. This is also what the founder of Naughty Dog admitted after entering Facebook. If you want to make the game fun, you have to sell yourself. Otherwise, it is basically a foundry, and no one is willing to invest. ③ At the end of 1992 and the beginning of 1993, there were already some behind-the-scenes and movie plots in the database (IMDb). Of course, what they uploaded were all media news.
