Chapter 827: Explosive news

As a world-class financial center, Wall Street is like a giant capital distribution port, with retirement, insurance, investment funds and capital from overseas countries in the United States. It uses investment banks and major exchanges as a medium to influence and even control the United States. And the economy of the world.
Wall Street controls the US economy. This is not an exaggeration. Most of the top 500 US companies are in the hands of Wall Street capital through the listing situation. The economic penetration of the United States and even overseas, in order to achieve control purposes, is almost the instinct of all Wall Street capital forces.
As a result, these years of rapid rise have completely divorced from the fireflies group that went straight to control, and in Hollywood, which has basically been controlled by Wall Street, it is particularly conspicuous.
For a company's shareholders, unless they have a speculative attitude, no company will easily choose to go public, and transfer their control to Wall Street step by step.
Eric admitted that he had a strong speculative mentality in the first few years, but with the rapid expansion of the firefly system and the continuous expansion of his personal vision, the seemingly impetuous thoughts have long since vanished. Although he will not easily let go of the Asian financial crisis and the Internet bubble as a quick opportunity to profit, but for his most important root-based firefly group, even if it was a long time ago, Eric did not think about letting it go public. As the Firefly Group becomes more powerful, this idea will not even be more.
However, it is clear that Wall Street will not easily let go of the infiltration of the Firefly Group and promote the listing of the digital field. It should be a test conducted by Wall Street.
Since it is impossible to promote the overall listing of the Firefly Group, it will be split up step by step and gradually realize the connection with the capital market. This may be the thinking of some capital forces on Wall Street.
In the past few years, Kasenberg has focused on the operation of the Firefly Group. Therefore, he may not be aware of the different efforts of David West to promote the digital market. Eric’s attention to the capital market is far more than Kasenberg.
After considering it for a moment, Eric said: "Jeffrey, you thought about it. If we agreed to let the digital field go public this time, then, maybe, it's Pixar animation, then, new line film, firefly movie. Disney Group... In the end, maybe suddenly one day you wake up, the Firefly Group has once again become a in the hands of Wall Street. At that time, it is difficult for us to manage the company with our own will. Big, why only the Firefly has cultivated the digital field, because we can invest hundreds of millions of dollars in research and development of g special effects technology for several years without considering the financial gains and losses. But other companies, in order to make Wall Street Satisfied, in order to make their financial reports every year and even every quarter more beautiful, they simply can't and can't do this. Otherwise, even if they are planning for the company in the long run, it is still difficult to get capital recognition."
"Well, I understand," Kasenberg grinned. Eric did not directly reject the proposal to let the digital field go public, but analyzed his interests in detail. Kasenberg later knew Eyre. This is a scrutiny of his personal feelings. In fact, he thinks that Eric doesn't have to be like this. After all, in most cases, if he feels that some of his subordinates' suggestions are terrible, he will basically simply and rudely throw a '' in the past. Rarely explained to the other side, looked at the "financial alchemy" Eric has been at hand, Kasenberg said half-jokingly: "Maybe, I should also take the time to read some of these books.

"If you're interested," Eric smiled and handed over the book at hand, saying, "This is for you, I bought several books."
Kasenberger took it unceremoniously and thanked him. He still asked: "I have seen you this book recently. What is this?"
"Soros's investment diary," Eric simply explained: "If you don't have three years of experience in foreign exchange investment, most people basically don't understand it, so I suggest you can skip the previous theory. Directly read the later part of the case, do not have to deliberately understand the embarrassing foreign exchange operation skills, just to understand the way Soros thinks, this is a real guy with a big pattern in the chest, and even reminds me of the far east A famous saying."
Kasenberger secretly wrote down Eric’s words. He is not very educated. He started to work in high school without graduation. But this does not mean that he is a person who is not enterprising, otherwise he will not be able to sit now. On the seat. Just about to close the book, and hear Eric’s last words, Kasenberger curiously asked:
What is the famous saying in the East?

"It doesn't make much sense to explain this. Just like a sonnet translated into other languages, it's hard to have a charm. In short, I just evaluated Soros, yes, I wrote it on the title page."
Kasenberger opened the page with great interest and saw a strange font with two lines of pencils on the title page.
The heavens and the earth are furnaces, and they are made into work.
The yin and yang are carbon sputum, and everything is copper.
Although the font of Longfeifeng dance is not understood by Kasenberg, he still feels a wonderful beauty.
Throughout the 1980s, Soros based on his reflexive theory, using the global financial market as his own laboratory, practicing his own theory through the second-best financial operation that has far-reaching influence on many countries in the world. . Therefore, this book is called "Financial Alchemy."
If you do not consider the destruction of many countries' economic systems from the point of view of good and evil, such a financial tycoon who can turn the cloud into the world's economic trend, is fully worthy of the "Peng Bird Fu" Eighteen words of evaluation.
Skip this simple episode, Eric said: "So, the plan for listing in the digital field, don't mention it. However, since it is mentioned, let's talk about our next step in the development of the digital field. ""
......
On January 19th, the 54th American Film and Television Golden Globe Awards Ceremony was held. Miramax’s "Shakespeare Love Story" and Firefly Film's "Red Alert" led the Golden Globe Awards and won the music respectively. The best film in comedy and drama.
The Weinstein brothers originally went to Oscar, but because of the strong lifting of "Titanic", Harvey Weinstein clearly realized that "Shakespeare Love" will be difficult to make a difference in Oscar, so Decisively give up, but the focus of public relations on the Golden Globe Awards, won the best film, best director, best actress, best supporting actress, best screenwriter five awards. In comparison, "Red Alert" is inferior, although the best film in the plot, but in the best director, the best screenwriter lost to the "Shakespeare Love Story", but although the firefly can not be hyped, but the media And the fans still can't notice it. This is the second match between Cameron and Catherine. Correspondingly, the attention paid by "Red Alert" is higher than the "Shakespeare Love Story" of the Weinstein brothers. some.
After the Golden Globe Awards, "Shakespeare Love Story" and "Red Alert" both significantly increased the size of the film, and the box office also began to climb.
Three days after the Golden Globe Awards Ceremony, on January 22nd, the 69th Oscar nomination was announced. The Titanic was the most popular film in this Oscar with no suspense and 14 nominations. All the nominations for "Titanic" can be said to be deserved. Therefore, 14 nominations were released, and the media inevitably reversed it and ridiculed the Golden Globe Awards that had just passed.
Stimulated by the one-week Golden Globe Awards Ceremony and the Oscar nominations, the box office of the Titanic in the fifth week once again achieved a miraculous retreat, with a weekly box office of $42.62 million and a cumulative box office of $252 million. .
A week ago, in the face of the second week of the Titanic's miracle retreat and subsequent continuous weak decline, the North American media only predicted that the film may reach the heights of "Star Wars" and "Jurassic Park", but When the fifth-week box office data came out, another reversal made all the media cautious.
Patiently waiting for a week, the sixth week, "Titanic" single-week box office of 32.83 million, once again achieved a weak single-week 22% box office decline.
As a result, the media in a cautious and wait-and-see state finally began to voice, saying that "Titanic" may become the highest-grossing film in North American film history, but at the same time, no one will predict how much the final box office of Titanic will reach.
In six weeks, the North American box office was 285 million US dollars, and the overseas box office was 147 million US dollars. The global box office of Titanic reached 432 million US dollars, so the firefly has already been able to get a score of 200 million US dollars, recovering the total of 265 million US dollars. Cost is just a matter of time.
At the same time, many media have also found that the five major box office countries in Europe, Britain, France, Germany and Italy, only released the United Kingdom and Spain at this time, the box office potential does not belong to the United Kingdom, Germany, France and Italy have not yet released, on the other hand Japan's largest box office market is also not released in Japan. Together with the Latin American and Southeast Asian markets that are also in the release stage, the Titanic's overseas box office may reach a terror figure far exceeding North America.
The box office power of "Titanic" has not yet fallen, and the Firefly Group has once again reported an explosive news.
After completing the existing film and television special effects orders, Firefly's digital domain effects companies, including Los Angeles, Florida and Sydney, will no longer accept Firefly Group and its partners MGM Studios, 20th Century Instead of the film and television special effects orders outside the three companies, Fox focuses on the production of film projects within the Firefly Group and the cooperative allies system. However, Firefly Software, which is primarily responsible for developing basic tool software for the digital domain and Pixar Animation, will continue to sell special effects software and special effects solutions such as Maya and 3dma. The special effects studio using Firefly Software's tool software will also receive priority. Firefly Group's redundant special effects outsourcing orders.
As a non-listed company, the Firefly Group simply posted an announcement on the Yahoo portal.
But the news caused a stir in the industry, but far exceeded the box office miracle of Titanic.
Before the release of the Titanic, the media and the industry have introspected the big production boom that has arisen in recent years because of the unprecedented $215 million production cost of the super blockbuster special effects. Many people predict that the g-effects that have just emerged Technology is likely to enter the 'ice age' for years. However, after the "Titanic" box office broke out, the original arguments disappeared. Even from the "Titanic" box office in the second week of the counter-revolution began, there have been film companies began to look for special effects of the large-scale project script, Movie companies that can't wait to discuss cooperation with the digital field are endless.
Before the Titanic, the attitude of accepting external orders in the digital field has always been quite positive. Other film companies also realized that the digital field is based on the need of technology accumulation and will implement this open cooperation strategy. Everyone did not expect that after the "Titanic", the attitude of the Firefly Group will suddenly change 180 degrees.
The technical advantages of the digital field are so powerful that there is no need to compare them. In recent years, Hollywood’s large-scale production films involving g special effects basically have close cooperation with the digital field. Moreover, the digital domain is responsible for These are the most difficult parts of the film.
Therefore, when the digital field suddenly shuts down the cooperation gate, it is almost conceivable to lose technical support in the digital field. In the next few years, other major Hollywood film companies will not be able to invest in funds for a short time. Keep up with the technological gap with the digital realm.
Without the best special effects technical support, Hollywood's other major movie companies are also destined to usher in a few years of special effects movie window. Hollywood certainly does not lack other special effects companies, such as industrial light magic, but if you make The film, in terms of special effects, compared with the Firefly Group's film, there can be almost a visible gap, in this case, the audience is not stupid, how can you buy it.
One day after the news was released, almost all of the core high-level phone ringtones of the Firefly Group had never stopped. The media also smelled the sharks and frantically explored the deep meaning of the Firefly Group decision. (To be continued.)
