Chapter 133: What to do if you have money

Chapter 133 What Should We Do If We Have Money?
"E-Jean-is-t-my-ver--" In the spacious living room, everyone stood or sat on the sofa, all with happy smiles on their faces. (Reading novels) Under the beautiful accompaniment, the MV of the song was playing on the LCD TV screen. Joseph held the microphone and sang excitedly: "But-the-d-is-t-my-n--" he sang , While circling around Michael Pete, suddenly learned the sound of Michael Jackson like that.
Everyone laughed suddenly, and Wang Yang on the sofa couldn't help but waved his arm with a smile and whistled with Zachary next to him.
After all, very unpleasant things happened one after another the other day, so Jessica proposed to hold a happy party at home. Wang Yang nodded naturally and agreed to invite everyone to play this weekend. Including Rachel, Zachary, Tom Willing, Zoe Danscher and other good friends of "High School Musical 3", they are all preparing for promotional activities in Los Angeles; there are Joseph, James Franco, Anne Darren and other friends in "Sweetheart"; a few young people such as Kate Hudson, a good friend brought by Zoe; of course, there are some couples who are very lively.
Not everyone sings in the living room, sunbathing in the back garden, eating in the dining room kitchen, playing cards and playing games ... casually playing in this big house. Of course, private places like study rooms and bedrooms have locked doors.
"She-says-i-am-the-one--" Joseph shook his fist obsessively, walking the unbelievable "Space Step" to the back, jumping up on tiptoe, and singing at the same time: "But-the- d-is-t-my-n-oh "he stumbled two steps, everyone laughed again and again, and Michael Pete laughed and said:" Joy, you can't dance ballet like this "Joseph again He jumped up and put a steady foot on his feet, said: "It was just a mistake, just continue She-says-i-am-the-one--"
Amid applause and laughter, Joseph finished singing "e-Jean", and he glanced at everyone: "Who will sing next?" He suddenly stopped looking at Wang Yang and shouted: "Wang Yang "Everyone smiled and applauded, looking at Wang Yang on the sofa, Michael smiled:" Come on, Yang "Tom Willing also smiled and said:" Yang, don't be shy, you haven't sang yet. "Zaka Pushed Wang Yang, and said with a smile: "Man, please"
"Cough" Wang Yang stood up with a smile, without looking at the microphone in front of him, looked around, wondering: "Where is my guitar? Where is my guitar? I like to sing and play, I will look for it "Speaking, he quickly walked out of the living room with a smile and walked towards the back garden."
In the afternoon, the sun is shining and warm. Next to the swimming pool in the back garden, there are several sun loungers and a set of sun umbrella tables and chairs. Jessica, Scarlett, Rachel, Annie and other girls wear cool clothes with short-sleeved T-shirts and shorts. They lie on the sun loungers or sit at the tables and chairs, drinking from time to time. Chatting with laughter and enjoying the summer of leisure.
Wang Yang was about to walk towards them and listen to the gossip of the girls. At this moment, he heard a few sneaky "Yang, Yang". He turned his head and saw a weird Joshua standing behind. , I do n’t know where it came from. Wang Yang asked suspiciously: "What's wrong?" Joshua looked at the girls in the distance, looked at him again, and grinned handily: "Hey, you know I don't have a girlfriend now." Wang Yangluan After shrugging, guessing what he meant, he smiled and said, "So, do you want to pursue one?"
"YES" Joshua snapped her fingers, hugged his shoulders, looked over at the girls, and pressed her excited voice: "Scarlett Johansson, don't you think she's beautiful? It's also funny dude, What kind of person do you think she is, if I attack her, you say I have a chance? "
"How do I know?" Wang Yang glanced at Scarlett lying on the sun lounger. Where did he know who she was? A girl with outstanding performance talent? He smiled and said, "Man, let's go and chase it. It's not up to you to see her."
Joshua nodded contemplatively, and then touched her chin to analyze: "Girls, animals, I can see through them, they all like strong men, for example, you look handsome, or you are rich, very Talented, high status ... Funny and humorous, sweet words, but if you are a man, you want a girl anyway, at least you have a little bit in it ... "
Suddenly he looked up and down at Wang Yang, and said in surprise: "God, why do you seem to have the scene that I can't imagine you being a white person, wow, all the girls in this country will be crazy for you" Wang Yang Staring at him, he said, "What are you talking about?" Joshua felt somehow spread his hands, saying, "What do I say? Dude, I'm Mexican. You know that a large percentage of white people are so superficial."
Wang Yang smiled and nodded, "Fact. But I don't agree with what you said in front of you. I think it should be said that if you want a girl, you have to have the traits that make her like it. Every girl has different requirements. "Joshua pouted quite contemptuously, and said," And their similarities are the part I said. "
He murmured again: "I am handsome now, a little bit of money, potential talent, potential status, very funny, sweet-spoken, a man ... cough" he himself was a little unbelievable and thought for a while , And suddenly his eyes brightened and said: "Yes, I have an ambitious girl who still likes this"
"Good luck." Wang Yang patted his shoulder, smiled and walked over to the girls, saying hello: "Hi, beautiful women," Jessica, Scarlett, lying on the sun lounger, Rachel, Anne, Erin, and Zoe, who were still sitting at the table and chairs, all looked at him and greeted each other with a smile: "Hey, Yang", he sat down to the vacant sun beside Jessica and said, "Sunshine stands Yes, what are you talking about? "
The girls suddenly laughed and drank their drinks together. Jessica glanced at him and said, "While talking about some girls, don't ask." Wang Yang also laughed, nodded, and said with a smile again. : "OK, I'm here to gossip, I'm a paparazzi. But I'm a director, and girls, you all look actor-like, so who wants to make a movie with me? Tell me."
"No, no ..." The girls all smiled and shook their heads. Rachel sat up and smiled: "Yang, a man can't be so gossip." Aileen and Zoe agreed, and Jessica reached out. Patted him on the head and smiled crisply: "Don't destroy your manhood"
"Oh, thank you" Wang Yang grinned and was about to stand up and leave without disturbing them to talk about girls, but when he saw Joshua walking over, he kept staring at him.
Joshua immediately came to him, he smiled and said: "Hey, everyone" In the hello of everyone, he walked to the sun table and sat down, picked up a can of beverage and uncovered, and smiled and asked: "in What are you talking about? "Wang Yang suddenly smiled and said," Some girl topics have nothing to do with men. "The girls all hummed, and Joshua raised an eyebrow:" Of course so ... "
A man with an ambitious potential he brewed a little, then turned the topic he just thought out, looked at Scarlett ’s direction, and laughed:
Do you have any good investment ideas? I ’m going to make some investment, you Knowing that I played a few small roles, I have some small money in my hand, what should I do if I do n’t have money to invest in? I am very mature, but not the kind of person who has a little money.
Jessica grunted noncommittally; Rachel next to him smiled and encouraged, "Joshua, I support you. But remember to be cautious when investing, don't worry." Joshua moved his face with emotion. Looking at her, she said, "Rachel, why aren't you my sister?" Rachel shrugged, Jessica glared at him, and Scarlett, Anne, and others all laughed.
"My current idea is to do some real estate, intermediary, mortgage ..." Joshua counted several businesses casually, very modestly, said: "In fact, it is a family business, there is nothing extraordinary. So ... ... "He didn't seem to be interested in Scarlett, so he looked at Wang Yang, who was drinking, and dragged him to the sewer:" Yang, how about you? I heard that Flame Movies is recently acquiring special effects companies, but no movies ... Have you invested in some family business? "
The girls immediately looked at it, and Wang Yang shook his head and smiled, "No, my interest is not in the catering industry; my dad didn't have any idea to open a chain restaurant, so he just renovated it." Thinking of his recent investment, He continued: "In fact, I do have two acquisition plans that are not movies. I am talking to a Canadian game development company called Ware."
Since hiring Paul Emory as an agent, he has given his first task to find a game development company suitable for acquisition. Paul Emory's strengths are not in entertainment matters such as packaging and publicity, endorsements, etc. What he is good at is multi-faceted investment acquisitions, managing funds, etc. When he first heard about the plan, Paul was surprised and asked him several times: "Did you say it wrong?"
Because in the video game industry, investors are always only interested in acquiring large publishers, and for developers, no one will invest heavily, no one will invest. But now someone is waving a 15 million check saying "I want to inject a game developer"? This is unprecedented.
Wang Yang just answered him: "Nothing wrong, I just want to buy a developer." The purpose of his investment is not to make much money, but to make a good game. He does not have this ability, but he can use money to support those capable.
After Paul Emery was determined, the job he started looking for was actually very simple. The 15 million check immediately caught the eye of many game developers. Then soon, he sent a list filled with the names of game developers to Wang Yang. Black Island Studio, Ware, etc. were on the list ...
Black Island Studio is part of the production and distribution company Interplay. It is a well-known RPG (role-playing) game developer. Its representative works are "Fallout" and "Bod's Gate" jointly developed with Ware. But its days are not so good. As soon as the release of Fallout 2, a large number of outstanding employees left the studio in large numbers because the leader of the Black Island, Fergas-Eckert, was too tempered; this year At the beginning of the year, Black Island announced the production of "Torn", and the company was full of enthusiasm. As a result, Interplay recently decided to cancel this plan. Now the whole Black Island is full of grief. According to Paul Emory, its internal contradictions are very serious and will always be collapse.
In addition, Black Island is not an independent company, but belongs to Interplay, the acquisition will inevitably have a layer of trouble.
So although Ferguson Urquhart's attitude is very sincere, I hope to get this fund to solve the problem of Black Island. But after serious consideration, Wang Yang decided to give up Black Island, not because of troubles in the acquisition, but because of its internal contradictions. Throughout the establishment of the Black Island, it is a movie that has lost talent. There are a large number of people leaving. Is there nothing other than the reasons for the poor management of Interplay?
He didn't want a company that was ill, he wanted a vibrant company. So he set his sights on Ware, another developer of "Bode's Gate".
In 1995, three doctors in Edmonton, Canada took off their white coats and established Ware Studio. They developed the "infinite" engine in 1997, which is one of the most advanced and successful game engines. This engine also attracted the Black Island Studio, which is authorized by the rules of the "Dragon and Dungeon". The two companies hit it off and produced 2.5 million sets of "The Gate of Bet". And now Ware independently develops an RPG game called "Winterless Night".
What Wang Yang likes about Ware is its ability to innovate RPG games and its strong storytelling ability. For example, in "Bode of the Gate 2", it can play different plot trends. At the same time, it also has excellent research and development technology With a vigorous company atmosphere, this is definitely a promising company with enough potential, and it has enough ability to make "Ninth District" into a fun RPG game.
His plan is to acquire Ware first, and then let it absorb the outstanding talents from the Black Island studio. The two companies have a good relationship for many years. Most of the employees know each other and there is no problem with the integration. Now the acquisition team headed by Paul Emory has conducted preliminary negotiations with Ware. It is expected that the entire purchase price will not exceed 10 million, but the specific details will be discussed.
"That's it." Wang Yang took a sip of iced Coke and ran his throat, looked at the girls and Joshua, and laughed: "If everything goes well, I will soon own a game development company, and it will be The developer of Gate is really exciting. "
"Oh" Annie, who doesn't play computer games at all, nodded a little confused, but her face was full of happy smiles for her; and Rachel, Scarlett, Aileen and others couldn't be better, they basically didn't understand Games, not to mention the game industry behind it; only Jessica, who has already heard him talk, has a proud smile of "I understand what he is talking about".
Seeing that girls including Scarlett were attracted by Wang Yang, Joshua grabbed her hair helplessly and whispered secretly, "Let me know it and let him go. The scene is now completely controlled by him "At this time, Scarlett asked curiously," What about the second one? You just said that there are two plans. "
"Yes." Wang Yang smiled. The plan is because there are 5 million remaining after acquiring the game developer. Of course, this is not true. The real reason is that he is very interested in the thing. He nodded and smiled: "The second plan is a website, maybe you know, gger."
The girls all screamed suddenly. They certainly knew what website it was because he knew it; and now they are not surprised about his acquisition plan. Everyone knows that Wang Yang is the earliest group of blog users. When gger has only tens of thousands of registered users, he is one of them. It is said that his use has also led to a surge in the number of registered users.
In Hollywood and the film and television entertainment industry, celebrities still generally use personal websites to communicate with fan fans. There are not many people who use blogs; Wang Yang is the most famous celebrity who plays blogs. He is the clicker in the gger. The top bloggers also attracted many friends to join.
"Gger?" Joshua frowned, feeling very puzzled, and asked, "Dude, as far as I know, it seems that it can't make money? They all make themselves close." For this matter, The girls who followed his blog all heard a little bit, and they were a bit puzzled for a while.
In the 1990s, Evan Williams and Meg Houlihan founded Pyra together, and opened the test gger service to the public in August 1999. It is almost two years later and gger is becoming more and more successful. , Pyra company was walking on the verge of failure.
Because gger's business is completely free, it can't find any profitable way at present. With the bursting of the NASDAQCO stock bubble, it has become more difficult. The company's accounts are only in and out, and there is no one-dollar venture capital investment. Pyra has no money. In recent months, it has continuously owed employees' wages. This incident has finally broke out in recent days.
The company's employees left on a large scale, including Meg Houlihan, one of the founders. Even the founder resigned? This can be said to be a deadly situation. The collapse seems to have become a fact. The only thing left is to choose to announce it today or tomorrow.
But another founder, Evan Williams, did not give up. He still struggled to support the normal operation of gger, but he also released the news of seeking funds, hoping to get help and overcome the difficulties. At this time, one person is willing to inject 5 million of funds into it.
"Yes, but I didn't plan to make money on it." Wang Yang shrugged, glanced at everyone, and smiled: "I bought it mainly because I think it's good. You know everyone can write, show, and can. Share, this is the trend "
The reason why he thinks the blog is good is because this thing is similar to a shared diary, which can share his latest life, mentality and opinions with others; he can go back and read it later to see his situation at the time. It ’s very interesting to get to know friends and others.
And after many viral marketing and self-improvement, the king of heaven and earth, the Holy King, the sacred king, the night will kill the god, the seal of the throne, and the best of the world. Abandon the young Zhou Dynasty martial arts Qiankun will kill the God seal the throne at night and seek the devil Ao Nine Heavy I know too much about people ’s desire for sharing and interaction. Gger is a very good way, things in life, comments on current events, novel articles, etc ... What you want to share is what is absolutely trendy.
In fact, the rapid growth of blog users also proves this, and now its number of bloggers is about to exceed 500,000; and he can often see the figure of the blog from some future movies and TV shows, which shows that it is in It must be very popular in the future. As for whether blogs will still be "not profitable" at that time? It doesn't matter, he also doesn't believe that popular things will have no commercial value, and sooner or later the blog will find his own way of making money.
"Blog is a long-term potential stock ~ EbookFREE.me ~ It is not necessarily unprofitable, but take it slowly. Before that I don't want gger to go bankrupt, but I am one of its most popular bloggers" Wang Yang I took a sip of the drink with a smile, glanced at Joshua, and said with a smile: "And what does Joshua say, do n’t invest if you have money? I ’m mature, not the kind of person who spends a lot of money all day. . "
The girls suddenly laughed, and Zoe Danscher made a "wow" voice; Rachel looked at Jessica next to him, and said seriously, "I really envy this guy" Elaine also laughed Nodded and said, "I am also the idiot of Zakari who will make me angry all day." Jessica rolled his eyes with a smile, and couldn't help but show a happy smile on his face, holding his arm intimately, Sweetly smiled: "Hah, you envy it" Wang Yang smiled and kissed her forehead.
Seeing Scarlett ’s smiling face also seemed a little envious, Joshua could n’t help but sigh secretly, he can see through the animal like a woman

Note: Considering that Ware hasn't even launched "Winterless Night" in 2001, the price of 10 million is no problem.
