Homelander Comics

Bai Ye thought about it. The main reason why "The Hunger Games" was the first work of Mercury Media was that Bai Ye wanted to use the publicity power of the movie to try to gain fans of the book. The secondary reason was that this was a movie with a strong female lead, which was very suitable for Tangtang to shoot. Now it was changed to "Spider-Man"...

How to say it, this is related to the overall strategy after Bai Ye.

In fact, it really doesn’t matter which one is taken first.

"It's up to you. I'm not very interested in the operations side of things. I'll shoot whichever one you decide is suitable!"

"Then it's settled!" Ikana made the final decision: "We'll start by filming Spider-Man, and then we'll start The Hunger Games. Our Mercury Media will definitely be a huge success."

"Then let me congratulate you in advance, Ms. Ikana, CEO of Mercury Media."

Bai Ye joked.

"But the first priority now is to complete the acquisition of Summit Entertainment!" Ikana said, "Mercury Media has a huge cash flow of $15 billion. Even without Summit Entertainment, it will definitely be able to achieve great things. Acquiring Summit Entertainment is indeed the most cost-effective approach."

Hearing Ikana talking about cost-effectiveness, Bai Ye couldn't help but think of something: when he was in college, there was a guy named Old Six who borrowed money from his roommates in order to pursue a girl in the class. He sat next to the girl every day and told her different jokes. After class, he took her out to eat in a restaurant, and during holidays he bought her flowers, watches and snacks. He often ate instant noodles in the dormitory, and sometimes he couldn't bear to eat a portion of hot dry noodles at 6 yuan. Once he finally made an appointment to travel with the girl, but the girl also brought her best friend. He spent 5 yuan at once and overdrew his credit card.

We asked him how far it went. He said, "outside". We asked, "What about outside?" He said, "just holding hands". The girls in the dormitory couldn't stand it anymore. One of the girls' roommates secretly told him that the girl in her dormitory often said that he was a loser, not her boyfriend, and that she only had contact with him for the delicious food.

After hearing this, Lao Liu did not return home that night. He came back in the daytime, looking exhausted. We were afraid that he would be upset, so we asked him to rest quickly and chase another girl. But he said that he would not chase anymore and would not communicate anymore. Last night, I finally understood what cost-effectiveness meant.

Thinking of the past, Bai Ye couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"What are you laughing at?"

Ikana was confused.

"Nothing, well, it's time to proceed with the acquisition of Summit Entertainment." Bai Ye coughed twice and said, "I'll accompany you to Los Angeles tomorrow to discuss this matter."

"Ah."

Ikana nodded.

She had almost handed over all the important matters in her own company, and could now step aside and officially take over Mercury Media.

Well, there were originally many details, and she wanted to complete everything from beginning to end, but Bai Ye was too impatient, and she couldn't stand it at all. What should she do? She could only focus on the big things and let go of the small things. She should deal with the Mercury Media matters first. After all... the things at home were only a few million or tens of millions of dollars at most, which could not compare to Mercury Media's capital operations of hundreds of millions of dollars.

"It's getting late, let's go have dinner together?" Bai Ye looked at his phone and said, "Let's continue discussing the rest of Mercury Media's affairs."

"Okay."

Ikana did not refuse.

then.

She got into Bai Ye's car and came to a private restaurant that was not open to ordinary people.

"Bai Ye, you ordered so many oysters... can you finish them?"

Ikana said speechlessly as she looked at the large plate of oysters in front of the two of them.

“Of course I can finish it!”

Bai Ye was wearing gloves, holding a knife in one hand and the oyster in the other hand, with the convex side facing down and the flat side facing up. He found the gap, inserted the knife into the gap, pried it open, dipped it in the sauce containing red wine vinegar, chopped onions, black pepper and other spices, and then put it into his mouth.

"Hmm...very delicious! Belon oysters are worthy of their reputation as the king of oysters."

French Belon oysters are known as the finest oysters and can be called the "king of oysters". They are flat oysters produced at the mouth of the Belon River in France where fresh and salt water meet. Because the waters there are clear and rich in plankton, the oysters produced here have distinct characteristics, with a sweet flavor of seaweed and iodine, and a drupe-like aroma. They have a crisp and chewy texture, strong minerals, and are even slightly irritating. Not everyone can accept them, but many gourmets flock to them.

It usually takes four years for a Belon oyster to grow and then two months of fattening in seawater to develop its unique flavor, sweet meat, fresh and tender taste. This top-quality material, just hearing this wild name makes people excited.

"Ikana, you should eat it too, it's delicious."

Bai Ye took a bite of oysters and a sip of Chablis Chardonnay, enjoying the food very much.

"I……"

Ikana sighed.

Oysters are aphrodisiacs. Before, Bai Ye's physical fitness was enough to make Ikana uncomfortable. Now there are so many oysters. Ikana feels that she might have a bloody disaster tonight.

Ikana also started eating with a sad and angry mood.

Well, you know what, Belon oysters are quite delicious.

While eating dinner, Bai Ye started chatting:

"In addition to Summit Entertainment, you will also need to register a comic book company. Let's call it Marvel Comics. Start serializing stories about a superhero worldview, in contrast to DC Comics. Spider-Man Harry Parker will be the first superhero..."

Bai Ye thought that working on Marvel comics in the Marvel world was quite exciting.

Of course, he couldn't copy the specific content from his previous life. It must have undergone some localized modifications, just like Gwen's Spider-Woman was transformed into Spider-Man. Bai Ye couldn't reveal his identity as a "prophet."

Basically, a so-called superhero only creates an introduction, and the rest is left to writers recruited by the company to carry out subsequent creation.

He is the son of a chaebol, a top-tier billionaire worth tens of billions of dollars. Of course, it is impossible for him to worry about how to copy all day long.

The feeling of activating the ability to use money is still good.

"It would be great if we could buy DC Comics," Ikana said. "Then your movie universe plan would have a real foundation. You can directly apply the DC worldview and use the superheroes in it to develop IP, instead of racking our brains to create in a timely manner and construct a hard superhero worldview like we do now."

"I would like to, but how can Warner sell DC to us?" Bai Ye smiled and said, "If it were 20 years earlier, we might have a chance to get DC comics, but now DC comics has become the core interest of Warner's core interests. Unless we can buy the entire Warner, otherwise... forget it."

Ikana smiled and said, "I just said it casually. Of course I know that Warner will not sell DC comics to us, and with Time Warner's market value of more than 1000 billion US dollars, we can't seem to afford it. Well, even if we can afford it, we won't buy it. It's too stupid to buy Time Warner just for DC comics. The cost performance is too low."

"That's right." Bai Ye nodded: "I won't buy it even if I can afford it."

In fact, Bai Ye really would not buy DC comics even if he could afford it, because he developed Marvel comics because he wanted to vigorously develop the Homelander IP. The core of all cores is for this purpose, and making money is secondary.

Moreover, Tony is already wielding a nuclear stick in a cave in Afghanistan, and the curtain of the Marvel world is about to open. Marvel comics can create real superheroes and maintain continuous popularity. Compared with this, what is DC comics?

When Marvel Comics was first established, it was indeed very weak. But when superheroes like Iron Man, Spider-Man, Thor, the Hulk, and Captain America came onto the stage, Marvel Comics became extremely powerful.

After talking about the development of Mercury Media for a while, Bai Ye said:

"Ikana, I guess you'll be very busy these days, the kind that you'll be too busy to keep up with. Do you need a reward in advance? Just let me know!"

"As for the reward..."

Ikana thought for a moment and said:

"When I'm wearing Gucci, my tears always go to Prada Prada's Dior..."

white night:"……"

"No problem, I'll take you to the store in a bit."

It’s just Gucci, Prada and Dior, we’ll buy you as much as you want.

After eating the delicious food, Bai Ye took Ikana shopping, to all the major luxury stores, where she could buy whatever Ikana wanted.

However, after only half an hour of shopping, Ikana received a call from her home asking her to go back. Ikana had no choice but to apologize to Bai Ye, then hurried home with her shopping bags.

"What a bummer!" Bai Ye looked at Ikana's round buttocks and said with tears in his eyes: "I ate so many oysters just for the evening, but you ran away halfway. What should I do? I won't be able to sleep all night!"

"Could it be that this little girl Ikana is directing and acting in this whole thing?"

Bai Ye was a little suspicious, but he was too lazy to pursue it. The question now was, who should he spend the night with?

After thinking about it, Bai Ye took a car to Tangtang's home.

When he arrived at Tangtang's house, he used the key to unlock the door and pushed it open. He saw a...

Peach.

In the middle of the room, there was a yoga ball with a woman lying on it.

With his back to the white night.

The figure is posing on the yoga ball, bending over, bending knees, straightening the body and raising the buttocks.

The S-curve fits tightly in the tights.

So from Bai Ye's perspective, he could just see that round peach butt with almost perfect curves and proportions.

Bai Ye was stunned for a moment.

Hearing the sound of the doorman, Tangtang turned around, saw Bai Ye, and blinked:

"Brother, why are you here!?"

Q: What would you do if you accidentally saw a woman with a perfect figure, wearing a tight suit, doing yoga with her back to you?

A: "Sorry," then exit the room.

B: "Excuse me, ma'am," exit the room.

What would you say?

Bai Ye was a man who did not follow the ordinary path, so he took a deep breath and said, "I'm sorry, ma'am!"

Chapter 90 Who doesn’t wear a helmet when fishing?

late at night.

In the dark sky, a half moon hangs obliquely and the stars are twinkling.

Bai Ye took Tangtang into the bathroom, took a bath, cleaned her up, and then took this delicate girl, who was as delicate as a kitten, into his arms.

Tangtang's pretty face was flushed. She arched her back in Bai Ye's chest and adjusted her position so that her heart could be closer to Bai Ye's.

"Brother, I love you so much!"

Tangtang kissed Bai Ye on the corner of his mouth, whispered softly, and giggled.

"I love you, too!"

Bai Ye kissed Tangtang's hair and smiled.

Maybe the person he loves the most is not necessarily Tangtang, but the person who loves him the most in the world may be Tangtang.

After all, Tangtang was brought up by him.

"Then brother, I will give you a child, okay?"

Tangtang blinked and said.

"what?"

Bai Ye's brows suddenly frowned, and he said earnestly:

"Tangtang, do you know? Marriage is a bondage to women. Having children turns girls into tools for reproduction. I don't want you to be oppressed or constrained by marriage. Do you understand?"

Tangtang: "..."

If you don't want to get married, then don't get married. Why are you trying to coax me with these words...

Tangtang pursed her lips.

"Okay, let's not talk about these topics full of oppression and exploitation." Bai Ye changed the subject and said, "Tangtang, you can tell your agent that you are going to start acting in a movie."

"Movie?"

"Yes." Bai Ye said, "Just two days ago, I founded Mercury Media Company with a registered capital of 15 billion US dollars, and planned to acquire several film companies in Hollywood. Now the CEO and I have prepared two movie scripts, one for "The Hunger Games" and the other for "Spider-Man". Both are A-level productions with investments of over million US dollars, and you will be the heroine in both."

Even with Tangtang's rationality, her breathing became a little rapid at this moment.

Who among those who are involved in the fashion and entertainment circles wouldn’t want to become a Hollywood A-lister and enjoy the feeling of being the center of worldwide attention?

Being a model, even if you become a Victoria's Secret supermodel, your social status will always be the same. It is a job you only do when you are young. You may be asked to retire at any time because of your age. It is cruel.

If you become a Hollywood actor, you can enjoy the freedom of the sea and the sky. Your flowering period will be greatly extended. Even if you are old, you can go to Hollywood to be a senior actor and make a living. Isn't Meryl Streep like that?

Almost every Victoria's Secret supermodel is trying her best to get into Hollywood. Unfortunately, so far, no supermodel has been able to break through this boundary. At most, she can only play supporting roles in some A-level productions.

Tangtang may be the first supermodel to be the heroine of an A-level movie, which can be regarded as breaking history.

"But brother, can I really be the leading lady of an A-level movie?"

Tangtang said a little worriedly.

Even though she already knew Bai Ye's arrangements for her, and she had discussed with Bai Ye which medium-sized Hollywood company to acquire, when the time came, Tangtang was still a little worried.

“What if I mess up the movie because of my poor acting skills?”

"If it fails, it doesn't matter. Just invest in the next one. If one doesn't work, then make another one. Make ten or so, and there will always be a success, right?" Bai Ye smiled and rubbed Tangtang's head, saying, "Tangtang, you have to believe in yourself. You will definitely succeed!"

In Spider-Man 1, the role of Mary Jane... Oh, now it should be called Ken's role, which is the image of a girl next door, which is very suitable for Tangtang's current age and mentality. It is fine for her to play herself. Bai Ye doesn't think any acting skills are needed. For example, in China's A-level production movie "Red Cliff", did Mrs. Kurosawa become the heroine of the movie just because of her good acting skills?

Ha ha!

A person who has his own unique movie universe, Da Tiantian, has failed in so many movies, but he still continues to act and is lucky enough to have become popular again!

As for "The Hunger Games", it's a commercial film and the heroine just needs to be cool. What acting skills are needed?

Well, my cousin did win the Oscar for Best Actress, but how did she get that? Hehe, anyone with a discerning eye knows the answer. When Bai Ye thought about how my cousin had been crushed by that fat pig Harvey, he couldn't think of anything about my cousin anymore...
