Chapter 762 Celebrity Effect
Walter Yenikov, former president of Columbia Records (cbs, later acquired by Sony and renamed Sony Music). Selling Columbia Records to Sony for $2 billion was Walter Yenikov's pride
Of course, Walter Yenikov also has the identity of being Michael Jackson's best friend and former boss.
After Michael Jackson signed with "Second Entertainment" this time, he introduced Walter Yenikov, who was at home, drinking vodka, watching football games and cursing, to Lin Feng.
At first, Lin Feng was extremely indifferent to this slovenly man with a strong taste of vodka in his mouth. But after searching his name on "Google" and looking at the many glorious deeds of Walter Yenikov, Lin Feng was deeply impressed again.
Be careful - people should not be judged by their appearance. After a brief conversation, Lin Feng was moved by Walter Yenikov.
Although this man's language is vulgar and his appearance is a bit sloppy, he is undeniably talented.
Seventeen hours later, Walter Yenikov arrived in Hong Kong. But what left Lin Feng speechless was that this man was carrying a bottle of vodka with him, and he had no idea how he passed the airport security check.
"Hey, Lin, don't frown. You have to know that only men drink vodka. Look at me, I am so manly just because I drink vodka!" Walter Yenikov saw Lin Feng staring at the vodka in his hand with a frown on his face.
, didn’t take it seriously at all, but took a big sip.
Lin Feng shook his head helplessly. Some people in this world have such weird personalities and are always a little different from ordinary people.
"Okay, Walter, it's your turn to perform this time. In short, I don't care how you play, I must get the 'image licensing agreement' of these stars." Lin Feng ordered.
"Ha, this is simple. Lin, you can rest assured." After saying that, Walter Yenikov took the bottle and left.
"Uh, Walter, don't you need me to arrange a translator and tour guide for you?" Lin Feng was stunned.
"No, no, don't forget that I used to be the president of Columbia Records and have been to Hong Kong several times. I don't need a tour guide. As for translation, most of the top executives of these record companies in Hong Kong understand English." As he spoke, Walter Yenikov
Already gone far.
Looking at Walter Yenikov walking away alone, Lin Feng smiled. He wanted to see how this Walter Yenikov was going to play. But right now, Lin Feng had to rush back to Shanghai. After all, he had been out for so long.
, it’s time to go back to the “Second World” to have a look. Besides, isn’t there a “Nowskin Candy” around? Lin Feng glanced at the Director of the Academic Affairs Office of Peking University who was following closely behind him, and shook his head helplessly.
"Mr. Lin, you do whatever you want, you do whatever you want, just pretend I don't exist." Sensing Lin Feng's gaze, the persistent director of the Education Department waved his hands repeatedly, with an indifferent expression on his face.
You follow me all day long, let me do whatever you want! - Lin Feng muttered a few times without deliberately lowering his voice. But this "benevolent teacher" seemed not to hear, with a smile on his face, leaving Lin Feng helpless.
Later, after greeting Li Zekai and others and asking them to try their best to help his "Second Entertainment" Vice President Walter Yenikov, Lin Feng returned to Shanghai. When he arrived in Shanghai, he once again faced the crazy siege by domestic reporters.
.
The first Asian to be awarded the title of "Sir Commander of the Order of the British Empire", the richest man in the world, and the "Hero of the Anti-Japanese War"... These titles make Lin Feng firmly attract the media's focus like a magnet. At this time, anyone who can report on Lin Feng
A deed, even what was eaten for dinner today, is enough to arouse people's curiosity. Any title, such as "What the World's Richest Man Eats", is enough to make people follow it.
This is the celebrity effect!
All of a sudden, many reporters raised their microphones frequently, blocking Lin Feng's voice. It seemed that Lin Feng would not answer one or two questions and would not let him out.
"Director Lin, just say a word or two, can you let us do business? You don't want us to be pointed in the nose and scolded by the editor, right?" A reporter who knew Lin Feng pretended to be pitiful.
"Yes, yes, Director Lin, you can just say a few words and let us deal with it." A reporter on the side agreed.
Lin Feng's status now is completely different from that before. Just one sentence is enough for these reporters to quote scriptures and freely write a large article. However, many readers are very convinced of this. With the absolute market appeal, many reporters naturally hope that Lin Feng will have more
If you can say a word or two like that, you will avoid being scolded as imbecile by the editor when you go back.
Lin Feng shook his head helplessly. But since everyone asked sincerely, Lin Feng naturally had to meet everyone's requirements. Helping others is also helping himself. After all, Lin Feng might need these reporters to help him build momentum in the future. Don't think that he is the richest man.
, but many times, these reporters still need help.
"Everyone, our company 'Second World' will launch a brand new online game in the near future. This is a completely different game mode, completely different from the current online game method. In this game called "Virtual Life"
, players will no longer play other people, but play themselves, their absolute selves. In this new game world, players can get acquainted with stars and celebrities around the world, and become stars and celebrities in the game, which can reshape a person.
Give birth to a brand new life." Lin Feng took the opportunity to start promoting "Virtual Life", which is about to be released for public beta.
Many reporters just hoped that Lin Feng would give him a casual laugh, and then let them talk about it by looking at the pictures, "drawing inferences from one example," or even making far-fetched conclusions, and each of them would find an article that readers would enjoy reading. But who would have expected that Lin Feng would be so open-minded?
It's such big news.
Players will reshape their lives in the game, meet various stars and celebrities, and reshape themselves in the game. This is fresh to think about. Of course, what is even more exciting is that you can become stars and celebrities in the game.
Friendship and other relationships are even more exciting.
Reporters who are proficient in games immediately listed several major elements of this game called "Virtual Life": 1. Development. Players play themselves and reshape their lives. This is a development game, and it is exciting.
Yes, at what age do players start to reshape their lives? If they start from a young age, the lifespan of this game will be far longer than that of ordinary online games; second, collect. Become friends or even have other relationships with stars and celebrities. How many things are there in this world?
Celebrities, celebrities? No one can name them outright, but a rough estimate is that there are at least tens of thousands. Think about it, there are tens of thousands of stars and celebrities waiting for players to "collect" connections. How many years and months will it take to play?
Third, the degree of freedom. You know with your thighs that the degree of freedom in this "Virtual Life" will definitely be unprecedented, otherwise it will not be able to reflect the characteristics of reshaping life. For players, what they desire most is freedom, no matter what
Whether in life or in games, both players and everyone long for freedom. To quote an American official, freedom comes at a price. But in "Virtual Life", many reporters speculated that Lin Feng might put
"Freedom" is developed to the limit. What's more, without freedom, the game itself cannot be played.
Fourth, a unified global server. Since we want to reshape our lives and establish relationships with stars and celebrities around the world, we cannot only have domestic stars or celebrities, but there must also be foreign ones. Then it cannot be a certain server, and we must use
A supercomputer similar to "Swordsman Love Online" is used as a server, allowing players around the world to play on the same server. This idea of a "second world" has been proposed for a long time, but it has not been realized due to various reasons. Can it be realized this time?
besides…
More and more questions are popping up in the minds of many reporters. The more they think about it, the more they feel that the game called "Virtual Life" launched by "Second World" will be unprecedented, will definitely be popular, and can be explored deeply.
There was too much content. While many reporters were chatting, Lin Feng smiled and led everyone away.
Now looking at these journalists who looked thoughtful and flushed with excitement, Lin Feng knew that "Virtual Life" would receive a completely free all-round coverage. In addition to the new setting of "Virtual Life"
In addition, and more importantly, Lin Feng's current status is different.
Although you were the third richest man in the world before, compared with the richest man in the world, your status is far behind. The richest man is the richest man, and any word you say will become the global focus. After all, you are the richest man! This is the role of fame!
Not long after, Lin Feng arrived at the "Second World" headquarters.
Wu Zhaopu and others had been waiting in the conference room for a long time. When they saw Lin Feng coming in, everyone was slightly nervous and looked in awe. The young man in front of them, their chairman, had made 17.9 billion US dollars in one month, becoming the richest man in the world.
This is so shocking. The richest man in the world became the richest man in the world at the age of 23. Is there anything crazier than this in the world!
Everyone thought for a while and shook their heads. There is nothing crazier than this in the world. Even if there is, it will definitely be labeled "Made by Lin Feng". Crazy records can only be broken by crazy people!
"Uh, boss, who is this...this...?" Wu Zhaopu said, pointing to the director of the Education Office of Peking University who was sitting outside the conference room and staring at Lin Feng intently.
Lin Feng shook his head helplessly and told the whole story. Everyone was immediately happy after hearing this. They did not expect that their chairman would also be made helpless by others. This is really hilarious!
Outside the conference room, the director of the Education Office of Peking University seemed to sense the discussion about him. He looked at the crowd, smiled slightly, and then continued to stare at Lin Feng, clearly conveying a message to Lin Feng - before you go to Peking University to teach,
You absolutely can't run away.
Lin Feng was helpless. Everyone was even more happy!
"Okay, let's have a meeting!" Lin Feng waited until everyone had laughed enough, then coughed twice to calm everyone down.
"Team Leader Cui, how is the development progress of "Virtual Life"?" Lin Feng asked expectantly.
"Virtual Life" will be a major game in the "Second World" in the near future, and will also be one of the flagship games in the "Second World" in the next few years. Especially with so many celebrity licenses, this is very difficult.
