nostalgic era

Chapter 193 Across Hollywood

After Jiang Deming reacted, he chose to refuse without hesitation.

Although I don't know what kind of movie is being filmed, but with the pissing nature of Ugly Chinese people, if I think about it with my toes, it is likely to be a movie like "Shang Qi".

Jiang Deming is not stupid, how could he agree?
Only those who are in the eyes of money are not taboo about meat and vegetables, and they will accept the money.

With Fredo by his side, George didn't dare to persuade him anymore, he could only express his regret.

These big directors seem to have a lot of glory, but even George, who won the best director award, dare not provoke the Corleone family.

The last person in the circle who provoked the Corleone family, the pier of his favorite horse was placed next to his bed the next day.

George didn't want anything to happen to his pet dog.

Next, George will edit the film as quickly as possible and send it to the hotel for Jiang Deming to watch. After he nods, it will be sent to the TV station for broadcast.

This is a commercial, with a big exporter like George, it will only last for a day or two at most.

After getting out of the set and just getting into the car, Fredo asked Jiang Deming: "Jiang, are you interested in Hepburn? If so, I can help you arrange it."

Jiang Deming looked at Fredo in astonishment when he heard the words.

Hepburn, one of the leading stars in Hollywood, if you say you can arrange it, you can arrange it, don't you want to be so arrogant? !

Jiang Deming was a little moved, after all, this is a generation of goddesses, but thinking about Bai Ruoxue at home, and Hepburn's status as a married child, uh, it seems even more exciting!
Forget it, forget it, you can't drop it, and if you drop it, you can't pick it up.

"Fredo, thank you for your kindness, but I don't like breaking up other people's families, let's go to the record company!"

Fredo shrugged when he heard the words. He knew that there were many rules in Huaxia, and Jiang Deming was thin-skinned, so it was normal to refuse.

Then the two headed towards Universal Records.

Previously, Li Mingyang, the person in charge of Hong Kong City, had already taken over two record companies, Columbia and Warner, and now Jiang Deming wanted to take down the other three with the same reputation as these two companies.

If you want to promote the Walkman, you can't do without a sound source.

Moreover, these people in the entertainment industry are very shrewd. Facing such a large piece of new cake, it's no wonder they are not tempted.

Jiang Deming didn't do it in vain. If these companies want to release new music sources, they must have a carrier, right?

The cassette tapes in the port city have already stocked up a large amount of goods, and when Jiang Deming passed by earlier, he has already had people prepare for the second production line, and the production capacity will be increased again by then, fully meeting the needs of these music companies. no problem.

Although there are now cassette tape manufacturers in Europe and the United States, the products produced by the system must be better than the current market. If these entertainment companies are a little bit darker, they can make ordinary and high-quality ones. If you want better sound quality ?Then add money!

Never underestimate the enthusiasm of fans. In later generations, those fanatics can even fly digital albums, let alone such physical ones.

Buy three copies, one for listening to music, one for collection, and one for people around Amway, this is a qualified fan.

The Ugly Country Orchestra of this era can be said to be in full bloom, and the men's and women's groups of Bangzi Country in later generations are popular all over the world, but Ugly Country is where the band is formed.

In the ugly country of the 60s, young people have only three days to choose a way of life, join the army, join clubs, and make headlines!
The two roads ahead are somewhat dangerous, and they may die at some point.

So many people choose the third way—to get on the headlines, so the question is, what is the easiest way to get on the headlines?

Undoubtedly, it must be in the entertainment industry. Those singers and actors should not be too easy to make headlines. A random scandal, or marriage, donation, etc., can quickly hit the headlines.

To put it simply, it is to use one's private life to entertain the public. Don't the people who are full of food and drink, and have nothing to do just like to watch these gossips?

The Beatles, the Four Seasons, etc., all appeared at this time. Today's ugly country music scene is full of flowers, and classics emerge in endlessly.

It was at this time that many masters emerged, just like the grand occasion in the Chinese music scene from the end of the 90s to the [-]s.

I am used to the atmosphere surrounded by the Divine Comedy, and when I listen to those splicing monsters in the back, I can't help cursing, what kind of shit they are singing.

This time, following the face of the Corleone family, Jiang Deming invited the heads of the remaining three record companies together.

There was no prologue, just took out three Walkmans and stuffed the recorded tapes into them.

The three record company executives who put on the headphones didn't understand what was going on at first, but when the music came out, they were immediately shocked.

This is a brand new channel!Facing Jiang Deming, who came to ask for cooperation, the three of them had the same idea in their minds—there is a pie in the sky!
Naturally, this kind of good thing delivered to their door cannot be refused. If they refuse today, their boss will be able to change someone to sit in their seat tomorrow.

And it doesn't hurt them at all, it just adds more channels for hairstyles, why not do it?
The executives of the three record companies pulled Jiang Deming to sign the contract on the spot.

By the way, an order for the purchase of cassette tapes and ten recording machines was placed.

The total sum has reached 150 million dollars, and with the orders from Columbia and Warner, the total has already reached 300 million dollars.

During the period, they all put forward the idea of ​​wanting to invest in rice science and technology. Jiang Deming still wanted to invest in it as before?Can!Go and talk to us officially!

Hearing this answer, the executives immediately dismissed the idea of ​​buying shares and talked to Huaxia officials?I'm afraid I'm thinking about farting!The fool can also see that this is a hen that can only lay golden eggs.

How could it be possible for people to buy shares at will?It is still a country that has just fought a few years ago and has not yet opened up its trade market.

If it were them, they would definitely not agree.

The premise of accepting investment is that you are short of money, or there is a reason why you need the other party. If not, no one will be willing to sell their shares.

After discussing everything, the manager of Universal Music sent an invitation to Jiang Deming. They had a movie celebration party and asked Jiang Deming if he was interested in going to see it.

Jiang Deming understood that this was because the other party wanted to get in touch with him, and he wanted to refuse at first, but after thinking about it, he just met Audrey Hepburn, and it seemed good to meet other celebrities.

In the ugly Hollywood of the 60s, there were many legendary superstars.

Have you heard of Garbo?What about Vivien Leigh?And Elizabeth Taylor, etc., there is always a suitable for you.

If I had come three or four years earlier, I might have seen Marilyn Monroe, but unfortunately she had already passed away when she was 62.

Jiang Deming didn't want to have anything to do with these actresses. The entertainment industry has always been synonymous with chaos. Unless you take them down before they enter the industry, it's really not that easy to find a clean one.

Without much thought, Jiang Deming agreed. Anyway, the banquet will be held at night, so it won't delay the business.

When the people from the other two companies heard this, they immediately thought about it. They couldn't let the people from Universal Music be the most beautiful, so they also started to tease the manager of Universal Music. Just look at which celebrities in your company are still idle, and you can arrange them all.

As long as Jiang Deming is wined over, if there is any good thing to happen in the future, they will definitely be thought of first.

Fred was naturally also in the invitation ranks, how could such a playboy be missing on such an occasion?

After everything was settled, Jiang Deming took Xu Zheng and left in Fred's car.

The three came to the expo together. Fred had no interest in the fair, so he put Jiang Deming and the two down and left.

Entering the exhibition, Jiang Deming walked around the original exhibition area, but did not find Chen Xueru and the others, and finally found them in the central area.

After the rendezvous, Jiang Deming asked Chen Xueru to find out that it turned out that the organizer saw that their sales were not bad, and transferred the position of an exhibitor in the central area who had left early to them.

This is considered a good thing. Although the sales volume increased significantly yesterday, the booth was still a bit out of the way, and not many people could visit there.

The budgets of these buyers are limited, and they might have already spent all their money before they even got there, so they naturally returned home in advance.

"How many people placed orders today?" Jiang Deming asked Chen Xueru.

"It's only less than one thousand, Mr. Jiang, I have another matter to report to you."

"Huh? Tell me!"

"People from Panasonic came here before, and they were willing to spend money to buy the patent right to use the temperature control design of our rice cooker, and pay 50 knives as compensation for the previous infringement, hoping to reach a settlement with us."

"It seems that these dwarves have finally figured it out. What about other companies? Has there been any response?"

Chen Xueru shook her head, and said, "No, I haven't found them yet, but they have already removed all the rice cookers from the booth."

Jiang Deming sneered when he heard the words, and said: "These people don't cry when they see the coffin! Contact the law firm and ask them to sue directly. In addition, notify the country and tell Assistant Wang that our previous plan can be implemented!"

"Yes!"

After Chen Xueru responded, she immediately ran out to send a telegram.

The news will be sent from Ugly Country to Runhua on Hong Kong Island, and then from Runhua to China.

One of these plagiarists in the island country counts as one, so don't even think about running away.

After sitting at his booth for a while, Jiang Deming was about to go out for a walk when a familiar figure walked over.

The person who came was none other than Daisuke Nohara, the person in charge of Panasonic Corporation in the ugly country.

Jiang Deming didn't show his face this time. After all, Panasonic is now a customer and will send money into his pocket every year in the future. Such a good person will naturally welcome him with a smile.

It's just that the skinny old man next to him looks familiar, and Jiang Deming seems to have seen it somewhere.

"Mr. Nohara, we meet again!"

Facing the enthusiastic Jiang Deming, Daisuke Nohara gave a wry smile. Jiang Deming almost cheated them this time and Panasonic went back to the pre-liberation overnight.

Today's Panasonic has just started up, and wants to occupy the home appliance market with rice cookers. Who knows that Rice Technology suddenly appeared in Huaxia, and even dug a huge hole for them, almost burying Panasonic.

Fortunately, although I paid some price in the end, I finally settled the matter.

Just thinking about Rice Technology's Walkman made him feel a little uncomfortable.

It would be great if I could also get the technology of this Walkman.

After seeing the Walkman that day, he immediately went to the relevant person to inquire about the patent situation of the Walkman.

Sure enough, the relevant patents were all registered by Rice Technology. Not only that, Daisuke Nohara also discovered that Rice Technology had registered many patents that he had never heard of in the past year. They were originally under the name of Jiang Deming. The time was changed to the ownership of Rice Technology.

This made Nohara Daisuke pay more and more attention to this company. If Rice Technology continues to develop in the home appliance market, the two parties will inevitably become rivals.

So he planned to come over to see Jiang Deming today, to try it out, and see if he could get any information.

Those who followed him were also from the island country, and they were also well-known figures in the island country.

"Mr. Jiang, let me introduce you. This is one of the founders of Sony Corporation—Mr. Jing Shenda!"

Hearing this, Jiang Deming looked at Jing Shenda and his eyes lit up. This is a great man. It can be said that Sony Corporation was created by him and Akio Morita. It is also in the hands of these two that Sony can develop into a multi-millionaire A giant company in an industry.

The Walkman was made by this old man, but now this thing is made by Rice Technology!

I just don’t know how their Trinitron technology is doing. This is a good thing. Before the Walkman appeared, Sony swept the TV market with Trinitron technology.

When Nohara Daisuke introduced Jing Shenda, the old man was staring at the Walkman and couldn't move his eyes.

When Daisuke Nohara mentioned the function of the Walkman, Jing Shenda had a familiar feeling. After seeing the real thing, he felt that he had lost something very important.

The red and silver appearance of the M1 Walkman made Jing Shenda feel a little awkward. He thought it might be more appropriate to set the appearance of this thing as blue and silver.

So after he met Jiang Deming, the first sentence he said was: "Mr. Jiang, why don't you design the color of this Walkman as blue and silver?"

Jiang Deming was taken aback when he heard the words, and then laughed.

Jing Shenda said that this color is the original appearance of the first generation Walkman.

"Mr. Jing Shenda, I think this color is the most suitable. However, thank you for your suggestion. Maybe we will change the color in the future."

"Really?" A gleam burst out of Jing Shen's big eyes. Although the feeling of loss was still there, it was finally much more comfortable.

"Of course, when I go back, I will start making arrangements. Maybe in a short while, you will see the color you mentioned in the island country's market." Jiang Deming said with a smile.

Daisuke Nohara next to him heard this and couldn't help interjecting: "Mr. Jiang, I wonder if your company has any plans to find an agent?"
