() "Hollywood Begins with Animation ()" Find the latest chapter!

Wisig was invited to attend the celebration banquet hosted by Wald Pictures, and came alone, without Vardy, Goldfinger and others.

The purpose of his trip was to have a candid chat with Zucker.

After all, every day the icq market is being occupied by other similar chat software.

The form of Icq is not optimistic!

"Hi, Zucker."

Zucker was drinking and chatting with Katzenberg, the head of DreamWorks Animation, when Wisger greeted Zucker.

"Uh, it's Wisig. Let me introduce you to Mr. Jeffrey Katzenberg from DreamWorks Animation, a respected senior in our Hollywood industry," Zucker said.

Immediately, Katzenberg and Wiesger shook hands.

Everyone is a billionaire, and they are all prominent figures in their own fields. They are naturally good at pretending and acting on the scene.

"Zuck, I want to talk to you, do you have time?" Wisger said.

"certainly!"

Zucker nodded, then looked at Katzenberg and said apologetically, "Jeffrey, I'll go over first, and we'll have a good chat later."

"Okay, go and do your work, I don't need you to say hello." Katzenberg didn't mind either.

Of course, he didn't mind that it was his business, and Zucker immediately called Old Bill, the president of his Wald Pictures, to entertain Katzenberg.

It's definitely not a faux pas!

They are all prominent figures in Hollywood, all they want is a face.

"Waiter, this way."

Under a big banyan tree somewhere in the manor, the two sat down, Zucker called the waiter, and found that the person who came was Amy Adams, a well-known Hollywood actress in the future.

"Mr. Wald, what do you need?" Amy whispered.

"Two glasses of Valdolan, thank you!"

"OK,

Please wait. "

After Amy left, Zucker turned his attention to Wisig.

"Visig, in fact, I've wanted to have a good chat with you for a long time. You know, since I quit icq last July, we should have only met once in New York. At that time, it was a Super Bowl commercial solicitation. We two Not only was it unpleasant to meet people, but there were also a lot of quarrels. Well, at the icq third anniversary reception a few days ago, we didn't say a word to each other, I should be right." Zuke said, tapping on the table.

"That's right."

Wisig said calmly: "You are right. You know, I am a little jealous of you."

envy?

"Hehe, why are you jealous of me? Jealous of my handsomeness?" Zhu Ke smiled.

"That's not it."

Wisger smiled and said: "I'm jealous of your vision. In 1996, Silicon Valley held the second Internet Summit. During the three-day exchange summit, we didn't know each other. However, after the summit, we met strangely. ."

"What are you trying to say, is it a coincidence?" Zucker quipped.

Wisger shook his head and said: "At the beginning, when I participated in the exchange summit, how high-spirited I was, thinking that icq would work hard and achieve good development under the tide of the Internet, but I lacked start-up funds. But...you showed up!"

"I'll always remember that evening, that cafe!"

"I think that was God's guidance, God made us meet!"

God?

Go to yours!

If you are not the founder of icq, how could Lao Tzu pay any attention to you?

Zucker rolled his eyes angrily.

Wesger continued: "Since then, we have applied for icq's global patent and founded icq company. And we also placed advertisements in your company's movie "Juno", which made icq become popular as soon as it went public. Remember We were all drunk that day!"

"do you know?"

"On that day, I decided that you will be the noble of my life and an important contributor to our icq's continued development."

"It turns out that I...guessed it right!"

"In the follow-up multilingual version of icq, the emoji package, membership function... all show that you have a unique vision. Your vision is ahead of the world!"

This compliment really made Zucker very comfortable.

Who doesn't love flattery?

"Then, didn't you still target me together with Vardy? There was a tendency to completely expel me from the board of directors. In the end, you succeeded! My position as chief creative officer and the position of executive director of the company were successively revoked by you. I finally It’s even more disheartening to withdraw from the stock.”

Zucker sneered: "Isn't all this what you want?!"

"..."

At this moment, Wisger was extremely embarrassed.

Don't watch what they say, watch what they do!

Facts have proved that Zucker has nothing to be sorry for icq, and there is no place for him to be sorry for Wisger, but the management of Wisger and the others are constantly targeting Zucker.

Let me ask, can Zhu Ke not be angry?

Besides, Zucker himself is not a good-natured person. It's just a few sarcastic words now, I'm thankful that I didn't point my nose to scold you.

"Mr. Wald, Mr. Wisger, this is your red wine."

Just as the awkward atmosphere spread, Amy Adams, who was still serving as a waiter at the moment, came over dragging a tray with two glasses of red wine.

"Thank you, charming lady." Zucker smiled after taking the red wine.

"Thank you, Mr. Wald, for your compliment."

To be praised by "Hollywood Boss" Zucker, this is naturally an exciting thing for Amy Adams, who wants to enter Hollywood.

"What's your name?" Zucker asked.

"Amy, Amy Adams!" Amy responded solemnly.

Zhu Ke nodded and said, "I remember you. If you are interested in becoming an actor, you can leave your phone number to my assistant Alexander. Maybe I will give you a chance."

leave a phone call?

Be an actor?

a chance?

boom! ! !

At this moment, Amy Adams's mind was like being swept by a Category 12 hurricane, her heart was surging, and she couldn't calm down for a long time.

Who in Hollywood does not know that Wald Pictures is best at discovering new actors?

Joaquin, Theron, Scarlett...Which one is not on the list of Wald Pictures, which made it popular in the United States? !

She, Amy Adams, a waiter and a Hollywood actor, wouldn't she be excited to get such an opportunity now?

"Thank you, thank you Mr. Wald!"

Amy excitedly thanked Zucker again and again.

Unspoken rules?

Ha ha!

Zucker really didn't have that many thoughts at this moment.

Isn't it a very proud thing to promote a future famous Hollywood actress and make her famous at Wald Pictures?

Amy Adams left, but her presence really eased the awkward atmosphere between Zucker and Wisig.

"Zuck, are you really not going to go back to icq?"

Wisger said solemnly: "If you are willing to return to icq, I can recommend you to become the CEO, and I can sell you some shares at a low price."

"Hey~~"

Zuke could feel Wisger's determination, but he still shook his head and said, "I won't go back, but if you really want to save icq's crisis, I can give you a suggestion."

"You said." Wisger expects.

"The strong man broke his wrist, gave up most of the overseas market and some subsidiary industries, made every effort to stabilize the North American market, and concentrated all his strengths to win the battle with Microsoft MSN!" Zhu Ke suggested.

Give up most of the overseas market?

Give up some subsidiary industries?

Visig was shocked and said: "Isn't the stock price of icq over?!"

Zhu Ke nodded: "Yes, maybe it will be delisted, but only in this way, icq will have a chance of life, otherwise it will undoubtedly wait to die slowly!"

Competing with a behemoth like Microsoft in the instant messaging market, without shrinking all of its strength, it will spread such a big booth. How can you say that you can win?

Be willing to be willing, not to give up some, how to win the future.

In this regard, Amazon's Bezos has done a great job. After he defeated the vast majority of online shopping malls in the United States, he did his best to expand overseas markets.

Wisig left in a hurry.

Zhu Ke looked at Wisger's back and sighed abnormally: "Who would have thought that in just a few short years, the instant messaging overlord icq would be worth less than $30 million?"

The second update of "" was sent, and the minister continued to open the third update.
