[The third watch, ask for a monthly pass]

"Yang Cheng, here"

When Yang Cheng walked out of San Francisco International Airport, Chen Xi's shouting caught his attention.

"You're here" Yang Cheng walked over and hugged Chen Xi.

This move made Chen Xi a little stunned, too affectionate, but when he thought of Yang Cheng's long-term residence in Europe, he was somewhat infected with some habits of Europeans, so he was relieved.

Feiyang Technology has set up a branch here in Silicon Valley, and Chen Xi often comes here to sit here, and by the way, he studied at Stanford University, so he has a house and a car here, which is very convenient.

"What's the matter with me in such a hurry?" Yang Cheng sat in the passenger seat and asked with concern.

Chen Xi called him last night and asked him to hurry to Silicon Valley, Yang Cheng booked a plane ticket overnight and rushed over, and he still doesn't know what happened, but I think Chen Xi won't be the kind of guy who has nothing to do.

"Remember what I told you about Google?" Chen Xi looked ahead and asked with a smile.

"Well, of course, you kid just lost his eyes in the first place" Yang Cheng scolded with a smile.

At the beginning, he supported Chen Xi to study at Stanford University, on the one hand, in addition to asking him to strengthen his own ability, he also hoped that he could get first-hand information from Google, or directly sponsor the two founders, but what he didn't expect was that Google's first investment was indeed found in Stanford University, but it was not Chen Xi.

With the establishment and birth of Google, Yang Cheng just asked Chen Xi to pay more attention, and once Google had the idea of financing, he immediately pounced.

Suddenly, Yang Cheng thought of something, "Could it be that they lack funds?" ”

"Not only that, they want to sell Google," Chen laughs.

"Sell Google?" Yang Cheng pondered, is there such a thing in history?

He hadn't studied Google in his previous life, so naturally he didn't know very well, but it was true.

"They looked to a number of companies, such as Yahu and Excite, hoping to find a suitable buyer for Google."

"How much?" Yang Cheng asked.

"1 million US dollars" is a very high amount for Feiyang Technology, but Chen Xi knows that Yang Cheng is worth a lot of money.

Yaya embryo, 1 million dollars, isn't this a free gift?

Yang Cheng was so excited in his heart that he couldn't wait to fly over immediately and buy Google directly.

"Immediately ask them out to talk," Yang Cheng immediately decided.

Chen Xi laughed, "It's already an appointment"

Yang Cheng was stunned for a moment, and soon smiled appreciatively, "You kid ......"

…………

…………

Today's Google is just a small company with an office in a garage, with only three employees in total, no money, no one and no future, and even the two Yahu founders who supported them to set up their own company don't think they have a future, so even if Google's sale price is only $1 million, they are still unimpressed.

Sometimes things in the world are just so magical.

If Yang Cheng wasn't a traverser, he wouldn't have believed that the two collegemen in front of him, who looked like home, would become billionaires and become the objects of admiration of countless Internet people because of their search engines, which no one has been optimistic about so far.

Think about those YY Google online novels on the Chinese Internet in his previous life, Yang Cheng sighed in his heart, we are like the male protagonist living in the world of YY novels

"I heard you're trying to sell the company?" Yang Cheng got straight to the point and got straight to the point.

Both Page and Brin couldn't stand Yang Cheng's wolf-like and extremely sharp eyes, nodded timidly, and looked at Chen Xi, who was a student at Stanford University after all, and was considered their alumnus.

"This is the real big boss of our Feiyang Technology, Yang Cheng," Chen Xi introduced. ...Larry? After hearing this name, Page suddenly raised his head and stared at Yang Cheng for a while, "You are the head coach of the Bundesliga Kaiserslautern, the genius Caesar?" ”

Sergey on the side of "not much like in the photo"? Brin shook his head.

"I guess it's a matter of the shooting angle," Page looked at more and more.

Yang Cheng smiled bitterly and nodded, "Yes"

"You're very popular on the Internet right now," Page praised.

Yang Cheng didn't think about it, after all, in the United States, football is not as popular as basketball, baseball and football.

But what he didn't expect was that those young girls in the United States also like handsome pots, especially those talented and good-looking

"To answer my question first, do you want to sell the company?" Yang Cheng immediately corrected the topic that had jumped to the Atlantic.

Both nodded, "We still have to learn."

"It's not okay to be so busy with the company that you've neglected to study," Brin added.

Yang Cheng frowned, these two guys want to sell Google for this reason?

"Microsoft's Bill? Gates, Apple's Steve? Jobs, they didn't graduate from college either, but they still made a name for themselves," Yang Cheng said with a smile.

"But that's Bill? Gates and Steve? Jobs, but we're Larry? Paige and Sergey? Bryn" Paige replied with a wry smile, looking like he was a very realistic guy, not as idealistic as some otaku.

Yang Cheng couldn't help but listen to it, but he had to admit it.

"Okay, how are you going to sell it?" Yang Cheng thought about it and decided to find out first.

"We talked to George before? Bell talked about it, $750,000, after all, we owe someone a sum of money, if you want it, $700,000 deal" Page is obviously not optimistic about Google, feels that the company has no future, and is in a hurry to get rid of it.

"You're currently doing a Ph.D. at Stanford University?" Yang Cheng asked suddenly.

The two young men, who were actually about the same age as Yang Cheng, were slightly stunned, but they both admitted the incident.

"In this way, I will directly buy 90% of the company's shares, and the remaining 10 will be divided equally among you, for which I am willing to pay $1 million, and at the same time invest another $4 million to support Google's development."

Paige and Brin were amazed when they heard this, wasn't this cheap for nothing?

Is this person funny?

Don't want a $700,000 company, but spend $1 million, and at the same time give them shares and then add investment in the company?

Just imagine, if according to Yang Cheng's plan, Google's assets will reach $5 million, and 10 is 500,000, which is equivalent to giving them a Google for nothing.

"What do you want?" Paige was calm and sensible.

"You stay and continue to refine the search engine, while continuing to innovate and develop new products" Yang Cheng is clearly much more interested in these two people than Google.

At least he wasn't sure if Google could become Google without Page and Brin.

"If you agree, the money will be transferred to the company's account tomorrow, and we can go through the procedures for the transfer of shares today, and at the same time find a better place to work, pay off your debts, and start working on a feasible plan for vigorous development."

Yang Cheng's words are indeed very tempting, at least they are not at a loss to the two of them.

"I believe, back then, Bill? Gates and Steve? Jobs's choices are exactly the same as you do now, but they all chose to accept the challenge, and finally achieved today's Microsoft empire and the once-glorious Apple kingdom, and now it's up to you" Yang Cheng looked at the two people with a smile.

Page and Brin were obviously moved, after all, they were going to sell the company before, mainly because the money problem was not settled, and now that Yang Cheng had solved their biggest trouble and given them such a big temptation, they were naturally tempted. ..., Finding that the two Google founders were looking at him, Chen Xi smiled, and finally it was time for his Stanford alumni to reveal its value, "Don't worry, Mr. Yang Cheng has always been true to his word, and you should know better than me how to find him"

If it was someone else, the two of them were really worried that they would meet a liar, but Yang Cheng ......

The whole world knows that Kaiserslautern had a Caesar

"Okay, deal" Page and Brin thought about it for a while and finally made a decision.

Yang Cheng also laughed, and after several twists and turns, he finally took down Google.

In the next three days, Yang Cheng was busy completing the procedures, and the funds he had prepared were immediately transferred to Google's account, paying off all the debts first, and at the same time renting a floor of the office building where Feiyang Technology was located as an office, and adding software and hardware facilities including high-performance servers at one time.

This is the way this world is, as long as you have enough money, there is nothing that cannot be done

After finishing this series of things, Yang Cheng went to Hollywood to report non-stop.

Yes, check-in

…………

…………

The schedule is really interesting, and it has a significant impact on the box office of a movie.

The Christmas schedule has always been a heavyweight schedule that all film companies value very much, second only to the summer schedule, but unlike the summer schedule, the Christmas schedule is particularly easy to be favored by the Oscars, so countless Olympic films will be released in this schedule, just like the [Psychic Sixth Sense] that Disney has high hopes for.

The premiere was very exquisite, and the pomp and momentum were important, so it was chosen to be held at the Roosevelt Hotel, the most prestigious hotel in Hollywood.

This one by Jerry? Bruckheimer as producer, David? Directed by Fincher, Edward? Norton and Charlize? Although the movie starring Theron did not have a first-line star, due to Disney's attention and Bruckheimer's previous fame, it received great attention before it was released.

The film was scheduled for December 22 after filming began.

Obviously, this is to seize the Christmas slot and at the same time hit next year's Oscars.

By any measure, it's a sign of ambition, especially when you think about the fact that the film's script cost $2 million in the first place, is enough to draw attention to the film.

Yang Cheng rushed from San Francisco and came directly to the Roosevelt Hotel.

"Excuse me, sir, do you have any invitation?"

The security guard at the door stopped Yang Cheng, and after seeing Yang Cheng dressed well, he was not too embarrassed, and asked politely.

Yang Cheng smiled bitterly, "It should be...... Yes."

"That's no, I'm sorry, we can't let you in," the security guard replied very businesslikely.

"Yes, it should be like this, lest some people who are difficult to get into the hall of elegance come to make trouble" A woman dressed very charmingly walked over, glanced at Yang Cheng with a sneer, and said with a gloating smile.

Is it Sharon? Stone

I saw this woman pretending to be elegant and taking out an invitation letter from her handbag, handing it to the security guard at the door, and didn't forget to turn around and sneer at Yang Cheng: "This is Hollywood, not just anyone who wants to come, maybe people don't bother to invite you at all?" ”

"Oh, by the way, may I ask you, Jerry? Is Mr. Bruckheimer here? She asked at the security guard.

"It's already here, Miss"

"What about Steve? What about Mr. Spielberg? ”

The two security guards glanced at each other, obviously disgusted by the woman who was selling off their friends, but still replied politely, "It's also here, they're all inside." ”

"Oh, I have something to talk to them about, I'll go first" After speaking, she deliberately waved goodbye to Yang Cheng, unspeakably proud. ..., although she also knew that Yang Cheng was the screenwriter of this movie, but she didn't care too much, after all, the position of screenwriter was really not too high, she wanted Yang Cheng to write a script for her before, and it was more in this way of being high up and seducing with beauty, who knew that Yang Cheng didn't give her face at all, she was going to fall into the well this time and trample this unknown guy to death.

Walking into the venue, you can see those Hollywood stars and directors everywhere, which shows the grandeur and grandeur of this premiere, which also makes people see that Disney is going to rely on this movie to hit next year's Oscars.

"Hello Jerry, Steve "Sharon? Stone found Bruckheimer and Spielberg in the crowd, looking a little anxious.

"Hello" both responded politely, but they didn't take her too seriously, as if they took her scantily clad as air.

"Why hasn't he come yet?" Spielberg seemed to be waiting for someone.

"It should be soon, I called just now and said that I was on the way" Bruckheimer smiled bitterly, the other party was a busy man.

Listening to the conversation between the two, Sharon? Stone listened and looked for an opportunity to lean over.

"Alas, Jerry, I heard that your company is preparing to start filming several movies in a row recently, is there anything suitable for me? No matter what role it is, I can handle it," after saying that, she also took the initiative to take Bruckheimer's hand, looking very intimate.

It turned out that she saw a reporter coming over to take a picture, and she waved to the camera very proudly.

"Excuse me, are you?" Bruckheimer frowned, he didn't know this woman at all.

And no wonder, Sharon? Stone has been getting so old lately that he's wearing a weird look of makeup that's hard to recognize.

"I'm Sharon, Sharon? Stone, "Sharon? Stone's expression stiffened a little.

"Oh," Bruckheimer said dispensably.

In the distance, a senior Disney executive in charge of this premiere walked over and asked anxiously, "Jerry, is he here?" The time is almost up, I can't wait if I don't show up again."

"It's coming, it's coming," Bruckheimer was also anxious.

Damn it, didn't you tell you to be early? Really

Just at this time Charlize? Theron walked over, dressed in a tight-fitting evening gown, which brought out her perfect figure and body shape to the fullest, especially standing in Sharon? In front of Stone, one of the two is in his prime, and the other is a yellow flower in the past, and there is no comparison at all.

"He just called me and said he was blocked by security at the door" Charlize? Theron found it interesting.

"What? Blocked by security? "Bruckheimer and Spielberg both found it incredible.

Is there such a reason for being late?

Sharon? Stone was taken aback when he heard it, they couldn't be Yang Cheng when they said him, right? Not a lot of words

And then what surprised her even more was that Bruckheimer and Spielberg took Charlize with them? Theron walked out to the door, seemingly going out to bring Yang Cheng in person.

Looking at these two well-known magnates who are both on the Hollywood power list, Sharon? Stone really didn't understand why they looked at Yang Cheng so differently?

Are they all football fans?

In a moment, I saw Yang Cheng and Charlize? Theron walked into the venue arm in arm, and immediately attracted countless reporters at the scene to take pictures, and Bruckheimer and Spielberg next to them treated Yang Cheng very closely.

This suddenly made Sharon? Stone regretted for a while, if she had cleared Yang Cheng just now and came in with him, it should be her who is enjoying this scenery now.

Director David? Finch and the actor Edward? Norton took the initiative to greet him, got together with Yang Cheng, and talked and laughed. ...Sharon? Stone didn't think it was anything when he saw it, but he didn't expect that Tom? Hanks, Brad? Pete and Angelina? Julie and the others also greeted them one after another, which suddenly made her wonder, what kind of magic does this guy have?

Yang Cheng didn't put Sharon at all? Stone took it to heart, he dealt with this group of friends who didn't have a deep friendship, and he finally passed the test, and he felt relieved.

"Have a drink" Charlize? Theron handed over a glass of wine.

Yang Cheng smiled, "I'm sorry, I didn't get through to Jerry's phone just now, and it just so happens that I have your phone in my phone, so ......" The more he said it, the more embarrassed he became, making him seem to be desperate, so he had to call her.

Charlize? Theron shook his head very freely, "It's okay, we're friends, aren't we?" ”。 He gently clinked glasses with Yang Cheng, who took a sip of wine.

"I went to the [Tales of the Night] crew to audition, and they wanted me to be able to play the heroine, the vampire Cilini, so I should thank you" Charlize? Theron thanked with a smile.

Yang Cheng seems to be her lucky star, before Yang Cheng, she has always been so depressed, but after meeting Yang Cheng, she has now become popular with her [Spiritual Sixth Sense], and she will participate in the [Legend of the Night] crew next year, she has already established herself in the ranks of quasi-first-line movie stars.

If [Psychic Sixth Sense] can make a difference at the Oscars, then she will also benefit, faintly, she also thought of what Yang Cheng had mentioned to her before, if the role is played well, it may be nominated for the Oscar, and she has always had high expectations for this.

"Don't thank me, it was your own hard work, it has nothing to do with me" Yang Cheng said with a smile.

"No matter what, I'll always remember the help you gave me" Charlize? Theron said with a dead eye.

Hollywood is a place full of people, and countless talented filmmakers from all over the world have gone to it, but the vast majority of people in the city can only become a stepping stone to the success of others.

Is it because these people don't have the strength?

Obviously not

Charlize? Theron looked at the venue, in addition to the premiere of [The Sixth Sense], it was also a way for countless filmmakers to get married.

In the venue, the most eye-catching thing was an unkempt middle-aged fat man, about forty years old, who was excitedly discussing with Disney's senior management, his name was Peter? Jackson, who made a few movies in Hollywood and couldn't sell them for money, but won an award, but so what?

The Lord of the Rings movie in his hand, which claims to invest $300 million, is a hot potato, and he has already negotiated with Disney's Miramax Weinstein brothers, but Disney directly suppressed the plan on the grounds that the investment was too large, but he clamored to find someone else to invest, and was regarded as a madman by the whole Hollywood.

Why?

Just because he is not famous

And another one, the Englishman David? Heyman, a detective who has made several movies in Hollywood and is considered a time warner in the London office of the United Kingdom, dug up a best-selling book [Harry Potter] that has recently been a big hit in the United States, and he wants Time Warner to invest $100 million.

Originally, Time Warner agreed, but later the best-selling author proposed that it must be produced by a full British team, and Time Warner rejected the proposal in a fit of anger because they originally wanted Spielberg.

Now he can only use his good friend, Polly? Cohen, taking the opportunity of the drinking party, approached Spielberg and Time Warner, hoping to negotiate and finalize the film as soon as possible, because they desperately needed a chance.

That's the importance of fame

Especially in this realistic and cruel world of Hollywood, fame is equal to opportunity

All the people who come here, they often do not lack strength, do not lack diligence, but they suffer from no chance, so they can only continue to be obscure like this, when they are lucky, they will shoot a few tricks, mix food and clothing, and when they are unlucky, they will have to do odd jobs.

Those who stand on the table and are well-dressed will always be only a small and small group of people

For this, Charlize? Theron has an extraordinary understanding, because she is from Peter? Jackson and David? Heyman slowly got up in the kind of people, but she was lucky enough to meet Yang Cheng

It is precisely because of this that she has an extraordinary gratitude to Yang Cheng in her heart, because it is this man who allows her to become the group of people in front of the Hollywood camera in bright clothes, making her famous in one fell swoop

So she also kept vowing in her heart that she would work hard to act in every movie and continue her career as much as possible, at least not to let herself be ......short-lived.
