Chapter 240. [Future Stock God](1/2)
There are many famous people, especially Yi Feiyang, a popular Hollywood director and gold medal screenwriter. He was stuck in the New York Airport and exhausted. The enthusiasm of the entertainment media almost made him unable to withstand it.
Finally, under the police protection arranged by the New York Police, poor Yi Feiyang and the others were able to escape the ordeal and arrived at the hotel safely.
After checking into the Hilton Hotel in New York, Yi Feiyang pretended to encourage the film crew he had brought with him, and then announced the disbandment, letting everyone have a good rest in order to recharge their batteries.
After everyone left, Yi Feiyang quickly got into his guest room, entered the bathroom and took a bubble bath, making himself smell good. Then he opened the door and walked in like a thief.
in the room.
As soon as he entered the house, he felt that the house had a different kind of fragrance, and he immediately praised: "Annie, why is the place where you are so beautiful? Otherwise, I have to find a way to keep you in my house for the rest of my life.
Because my residence is really not very nice!"
"You are so glib, and you are so beautiful!" Hathaway rolled her eyes at Yi Feiyang, but her heart felt sweet. No woman can resist the compliments of the man she likes, not even Hathaway.
"No, my lips are very dry and not slippery at all. Hey, how about you moisturize them for me!" Yi Feiyang smiled and gradually approached Hathaway, who was packing her luggage, and suddenly hugged her from behind.
, sniffing the intoxicating light aroma, and said in an extremely funny coquettish tone: "Help me, my dear!"
If Hathaway didn't like Yi Feiyang, I'm afraid she would feel a chill, but for a woman in love, this is very different. Hathaway let go of her delicate hands packing her luggage and leaned back against Yi Feiyang.
Feiyang said worriedly: "Don't be joking. It's okay that our relationship hasn't been exposed yet, but I'm afraid..."
"What are you worried about?" Yi Feiyang now felt intoxicated and unable to extricate himself. He suddenly woke up and saw the look on her face. With a thought, he understood: "Don't worry. There is always a way. Although we can't do it now.
Together, but in the future, as long as you really become popular and become a superstar, then no one will talk anymore if we are together."
"You know, that's difficult!" Hathaway's expression became more and more worried: "Especially now that you are getting more and more popular, I feel that the distance between me and you is getting bigger and bigger. The most important thing is that there will be
There are so many more beautiful and lovely girls who like you, and when the time comes...what if you fall in love with another woman?"
Yi Feiyang didn't expect Hathaway to have such an idea, but when he thought about it carefully, it was indeed the case. Since he became more and more popular and his status in Hollywood became higher and higher, there were many outstanding girls around him.
Wandering around. Although there are few hidden rules in the American entertainment industry, there are many one-night stands here. Although Yi Feiyang is confident and determined, he is not sure he can resist the temptation of some women who are caught off guard.
Yi Feiyang sighed softly when he thought of this. But he had no choice but to say quietly: "If possible, I really want to retire with you. It would be great to find a place where we don't know each other for the rest of my life."
Unfortunately, I still have a wish and an arduous task that I have yet to complete!"
"Don't do this to me, I will feel guilty!" Hathaway raised her swan-like white neck and looked at Yi Feiyang and said in a sincere tone: "Yi, you are so talented, if you just retire like this and don't do something
I think you will blame me for your career. So don’t do this!"
Yi Feiyang held Hathaway tightly in his arms tenderly, as if he was afraid of being taken away.
Feeling Hathaway's dependence, Yi Feiyang could not help but become more ambitious and said in a deep voice: "Annie, please believe me, as long as I can control the direction of the entire Hollywood, no one will dare to say anything to us.
"
The strong self-confidence can be heard in the tone. Hathaway was shocked when she suddenly heard Yi Feiyang's words. She did not expect that Yi Feiyang had the ambition to control the Hollywood film industry. But when she stared at Yi Feiyang's determination
With the look in his eyes, he knew he was not joking. He couldn't help but get lost in this sense of security and whispered: "Hi, Yi! You can do it, you can definitely do it!"
OK!
Of course it works!
Yi Feiyang does not understand computer IT, nor high technology, nor nanotechnology, and genetically modified technology. None of these will allow him to profit from it. But as long as he understands the specific trends of Hollywood and world movies, he will have control.
qualifications.
Hollywood!
The top of world cinema!
There are countless people trying to conquer this mountain and become the overlord among overlords!
The leader in charge of the world's film industry, no one dares to disobey an order!
MGM tried it and failed!
Fox tried it and lost!
There are many, many large companies that eventually collapsed. No one in history... No, it should be said that there was one person who almost did it. He was Howard Hughes, the former controlling shareholder of Universal! This man became an orphan at the age of 17.
He dropped out of school to take over his father's business and became the chairman and director of a film company at the age of 21, creating a genius in the most glorious period of Hollywood Yingtan.
The young Hughes was very interested in movies, but he stumbled when he first entered the film industry. The first movie he invested in was called "Playboy Hogan", which made him famous.
The film was directed and starred by the disgraced actor Ralph Grapps, but it was a flop. No one wanted the film. Hughes lost a net $80,000. The failure drew harsh criticism from Rupert, who said he
He didn't understand movies at all. Then he was introduced to Mr. Samuel Godwin, a film expert. This gentleman told Hughes that to make a movie, you must first get an excellent script, which is the basis for success.
Hughes accepted Mr. Godwin's advice and began to study and select scripts carefully after returning. He selected a script called "Arabian Nights", which is about a stern sergeant on the European battlefield in World War I.
A comedy about confused soldiers. This time, he found an excellent director named Mileston and cast several unknown but promising actors. This time, he succeeded.
After the audition, the Riboli Theater, the number one theater in the United States, requested a long-term screening, which was unprecedented. "Arabian Nights" won the second Academy Award for Best Comedy.
After that, Howard Hughes became obsessed with aerial combat movies. In order to shoot such a large-scale war movie, he blew up hundreds of planes, spent millions of dollars, and took two years to complete the movie. This movie shocked the whole world.
It was "Hell's Angels". And this drama also established his well-deserved dominance in Hollywood.
Unfortunately, the good times did not last long, because Hughes was too obsessed with movies and his other careers and neglected his wife, so he divorced. Hughes was hit by this and began to hide. A generation of film hegemons has been silent since then.
It can be said that Howard Hughes has always been Yi Feiyang's idol. In Yi Feiyang's eyes, only people like him can be called geniuses!
Yes. That’s genius!
What Yi Feiyang wants now is not only to control Hollywood, but mainly to use Hollywood to support Chinese-language movies, and to allow Chinese-language movies to replace Hollywood!
This is his ambition!
After kissing Hathaway gently and sitting on the edge of the bed together, Yi Feiyang pondered for a moment: "I don't have enough influence at the moment. It's better to be more cautious and try to keep a distance in front of the public."
How long will it take to control the Hollywood film industry? Yi Feiyang was thinking about it when he said those words. In the past, from the perspective of Lionsgate Pictures catching up with the seven major Hollywood film companies, it only took ten years.
After more than ten years of development, Lionsgate Pictures has the "Saw" series, the "Hunger Games" series, and the "Suicide Squad" series. It relies on low-cost horror production and uses small to make a big contribution to consolidate its foundation.
Only then will we have future scale. Lionsgate's influence is not only in the production of horror films, but mainly in its distribution.
Lionsgate is a well-known agent for Hollywood's low- and medium-cost horror films, thrillers, and B-level films. The company's golden name in the horror field is more impressive than the seven major film companies, which is enough to make countries around the world want to enter the U.S. market.
, and films that want to enter the Eurasian market are flocking to it.
Although Fantasy Pictures currently focuses on horror films, its overall strength has not yet reached the level of Lionsgate in its previous life, and this is the gap.
It takes ten years!
Yi Feiyang was sweating profusely when he thought about this number. He was willing to spend so much time, but what would Hathaway do then? Do they have to wait until they waste so much time before they can get together?!
After some further calculations, Yi Feiyang made a promise that was far from foreseeable, staring into Hathaway's eyes like the bright moon: "Give me three years, four years at most, and I will be able to control the entire Hollywood movie industry."
!”
Hathaway looked at Yi Feiyang's determined eyes, and a warm current surged out of her heart: "Yi, don't worry, I will wait for you, yes, I will!"
Can't wait, absolutely can't wait. Yi Feiyang made this calculation after gritting his teeth.
Why has Yifeiyang been unwilling to list the company and use stock market financing to expand the company? There is only one reason, because Yifeiyang knows that from 2000 to 2002, it was one of the top ten stock market crashes in the U.S. stock market!
During this period, the Internet bubble was severe, the bursting of the high-tech bubble and the 9.11 terrorist attacks caused serious trauma to the U.S. stock market, so much so that many U.S. companies were on the verge of bankruptcy. It was from this period that MGM, a giant in the film industry, began to decline, eventually leading to
Bankruptcy in 2010.
Then again, if the stock market crash from 2000 to 2002 is the same as in the previous life, then he can make a profit in the stock market, so that he can expand the scale of the company. With funds as the basis, the expansion of Fantasy Film Company will definitely be
It's very amazing.
Yi Feiyang's greatest confidence and hope lies not in the stock market crash, but in the fact that Fantasy Pictures has an advantage that no other company can achieve: with Yi Feiyang's knowledge, he must know which movies can sell well and which ones are sure to be hits.
In this way, the company does not need to cooperate with other companies to make films to reduce risks. No company in Hollywood will finance a big-budget film entirely by itself, but will try to raise as much money as possible to reduce risks, no matter how high the success rate is. The videos are only half-recorded.
Financing means the need to divide profits, and Yi Feiyang's advantages are very clear here. For example, in "Pirates of the Caribbean" and "Speed Snail", if he had not raised funds from Lionsgate and Paramount before, then The hundreds of millions of profits from these two films all belong to Fantasy Pictures. But having said that, the reason why Yi Feiyang wants to cooperate with other companies has only one purpose, and that is to accumulate contacts. Looking at it now, the effect is remarkable.
In short, with a golden finger that can predict the future, Yi Feiyang hopes to double the size of his company in just one year!
Yes, at least double!
At that time, Fantasy Pictures will surpass Lionsgate and truly join the ranks of major film companies!
…
Yi Feiyang has always been a practical person. He doesn't like to look forward and backward when doing anything, let alone dragging his feet.
Since he came to New York, USA, he planned to make a fortune in the stock market ambitiously. So he took the time to find a company manager on Wall Street in Manhattan, USA, hoping that the other party could introduce him to a better stock broker.
According to Yifeiyang's investment plan, the period from 2000 to 2002 was one of the top ten stock market crashes in the United States. If it can operate well during this period, it can make a steady profit without losing money due to the stock market crash.
In fact, Yi Feiyang himself doesn't know much about the stock market, but he understands the future trend of the stock market. This is like cheating and can help him make the most correct choice.
The manager took Yi Feiyang's commission and was very considerate. In just one day, he introduced three excellent stock brokers.
One is Janed, an Arab. He has worked on Wall Street for five years and has rich investment experience.
An Italian-American named Raphael has worked on Wall Street for more than three years. He is shrewd and good at adapting to changes.
The last one is Ali, an African-American. His hometown is Ethiopia, Africa. He is just starting out and has not much experience. His biggest characteristic is that he can make plans according to the needs of customers.
According to the stock manager's recommendation, Yi Feiyang would be better off choosing Jared or Raphael. Both of them are aggressive, intelligent, and shrewd, like wild wolves roaming Wall Street, ambitious. , can help customers create the greatest benefits.
But in the end, Yi Feiyang chose Ali, who was not very eye-catching, which surprised the manager. In fact, he brought Ali here just to fill the gap.
Afterwards, the manager asked the three people he brought with him what questions Yi Feiyang asked them during the interview.
