Chapter Nine Hundred and Ninety-Two Oscar's Sorrow

Obviously, this game is still in its infancy, very rough, and it is a lot worse than the previous life, but it has almost everything it should have.

Adehan only introduced it once, and Xiao Yunhai was already able to operate it proficiently.

Ten minutes later, Xiao Yunhai killed a big monster and obtained a lot of gold coins and items.

Adhan looked on in awe, and after a while, he said, "Mr. Xiao, you are a game genius."

Xiao Yunhai said proudly, "I told you a long time ago that I'm a game master."

With his foundation in the previous life and his current eyesight, playing a game is not a piece of cake.

Adhan gave a thumbs up and said, "Awesome. Mr. Xiao, what do you think of this game?"

Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "It's very interesting. I think "World of Warcraft" has the potential to be popular all over the world, and it should be able to succeed."

Hearing Xiao Yunhai's willingness to invest, Adhan said excitedly, "That's great."

Christy, who has been silent next to him, asked, "Mr. Adhan, how many employees does your Storm Game Company have now? How long will it take to complete this game? How much investment do we need, and how many shares can we take?"

Since Xiao Yunhai has agreed to invest, as his chief economic advisor, Christie will do the rest.

Adhan scratched the back of his head and said a little embarrassedly: "Our Storm Game Company originally had more than 500 people, but the games we made in the past two years did not achieve the expected results, so we walked away, scattered and scattered, and now there is only one left. Less than 100 people have been hired. With the current strength, it is not bad to be able to make this game within three years. As for the investment, a rough estimate is that it will cost at least 500 million US dollars.”

Christy adjusted the frame of her spectacles,

Said: "Your situation is really bad. If we promise to invest 500 million US dollars, how many shares can you give us?"

Adhan cleared his throat and said, "Forty-nine percent at most."

Maybe he also felt that he was going too far. After Adehan finished speaking, he didn't even dare to look into Christy's eyes.

Christy smiled directly and said, "I can understand why you can't find investors. A game company that is about to go bankrupt actually sold 49% of its shares for $500 million. You are taking advantage of it. Does the investment company take it for granted?"

Adhan shook his head and said, "No. Ms. Christy, this condition is indeed a bit harsh, but we are convinced that the income that "World of Warcraft" can bring you will definitely exceed half a billion dollars."

Christy was unmoved and said: "When you played the first three games, were you convinced that you could succeed, but the result was a complete loss. Mr. Adhan, I can tell you clearly that this Don’t talk to us about the price. No VC firm in the world will agree. This is simply too much. If we fail, we will lose everything.”

Adhan said, "What do you mean?"

Christy said: "Eighty percent of the $500 million."

Adhan was shocked and said, "This is impossible. We would rather go bankrupt than hand over the hard-earned game company."

Christy said: "You owe the bank $160 million. If you declare bankruptcy, are you ready to pay it back?"

When Adhan heard this, his face flushed and he couldn't say a word.

His good friend Star persuaded: "Adehan, don't hold on any longer, you can't stand it at all. Mr. Xiao is not the kind of boss who is mercenary. Look at the current situation of Magic and Marvel. The annual salary of the employees is more than 200,000 US dollars. If you want to develop the storm, without the support of Mr. Xiao, you can't do it at all."

Xiao Yunhai said with a smile: "It seems that you have a very deep relationship with Fengfeng, which is a good thing. Don't worry, although I occupy most of the shares, you are still responsible for the big and small things in the company. As long as it is not I won’t ask about the important matters that endanger the life and death of the company. In fact, even if I want to ask, I can’t do it, because I don’t understand it at all.”

When Adhan heard this, he asked suspiciously, "You really won't deprive us of our management rights?"

Xiao Yunhai laughed and said: "You have seen me manage a few of all the companies under my banner. Like Magic Special Effects Company, I can't go a few times a year, so how can I take care of you. Don't worry, this can be noted in the contract. Ming. Also, a game takes three years to complete, which I can't stand. If I become a major shareholder of the company, I will inject a billion dollars into the company, and let you go out to recruit troops, with minimum technicians To reach a thousand people. As for who you need, it's your business."

Adhan asked, "What about our shares?"

Xiao Yunhai said with a smile: "The other 500 million is what I lent to the company. After I make money, the company will pay it back to me. My goal is to make Storm Games the number one game company in the world, so that people can As soon as you play the game, you will definitely think of our storm. Adhan, do you have this ambition?"

Adhan's face flushed with excitement at the prospect depicted by Xiao Yunhai, and he shouted, "Of course we have."

After speaking, Adhan seemed to feel that the occasion was wrong, and his face suddenly turned redder.

Everyone couldn't help laughing when they saw him.

Christy glanced at Xiao Yunhai with admiration, and said to herself, "No wonder he has grown into the world's top 20 millionaires in just three years. This kind of charisma on his body alone is not an ordinary person. own."

Xiao Yunhai said: "You can discuss it with the other two partners. If they agree, we will sign the contract this afternoon, and one billion dollars will be credited immediately."

Adhan nodded and said, "I'll talk to them right away. As long as we don't take away our management rights, they should be fine."

Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "That's good. Ms. Christie, you are responsible for this matter."

Christie said: "No problem. However, let's say in advance that our investment company will only invest 500 million, and the remaining 500 million is to be lent to them by yourself, and has nothing to do with us."

Xiao Yunhai laughed and said, "Are we going to start splitting the account now? Okay, I'll pay the 500 million by myself."

After sending Christy and the others away, Raul walked in and said, "Boss, I have the recording. It is indeed a call between George Mikan, chairman of the Oscar organizing committee, and someone else. The other party used $200 million to deprive you of it. Best Screenplay, Best Foreign Language Film, Best Actor, and Best Director for four awards. However, there is only his voice in it, and there is no name in the middle, we can't guess who is on the phone?"

Xiao Yunhai nodded, put the recording on the computer and listened to it. Sure enough, it was all transactions between Mikan and the other party.

Xiao Yunhai asked in confusion, "How did they do it?"

Raul said: "Boss, you may not be aware of the film selection process. Let's put it this way, although the Oscar awards are selected by more than 200 experts, when counting the votes, it can be tricky. Because Once it's counted, the ballots are put into a shredder, and no one knows who voted them. Just prepare some ballots in advance, replace yours, and you'll be fine."

Xiao Yunhai suddenly realized: "No wonder Mikan said that he has to clear a lot of barriers, it seems that the tellers are also very important. Hehe, they are really cruel enough for a prize of 50 million US dollars. Okay, as long as there is his The recording is fine. As for the person on the other end of the phone, I can't think of anyone other than Paramount. Raul, go and secretly upload this recording to the Internet. Don't let people find out that we made it, lest Provoking right and wrong, understand?"

Raul said: "I understand, boss."

In less than half an hour, Raul had someone upload the recording. In just ten minutes, the number of hits exceeded 10,000.

"We agreed. For one award of 50 million, Xiao won a total of four awards for Best Screenplay, Best Foreign Language Film, Best Actor and Best Director, adding up to 200 million US dollars."

"Do you want to admit it? Hehe, I, George Mikan, have been the chairman of the Oscars for so many years, so it's not easy to mess with."

"Very good. You can just bring the check for $200 million. As for how we divide it, that's our business."

In the recording, George Mikan's voice is very clear. Anyone who hears this recording is full of indignation. This is a blatant crime.

At noon that day, an unprecedented earthquake occurred in the United States. The Oscars, regarded by fans around the world as a symbol of movies, no longer had its former glory. The glittering trophy was covered with a layer of black dirt, and the whole Hollywood was shocked. of speechless.

"How could this be? Two hundred million dollars, four awards, God, it's not true."

"Is Oscar down to this point now? Xiao's four trophies were just stolen with 200 million dollars."

"Xiao is right, Oscar is so unfair."

"Damn George Mikan, let us misunderstand Xiao."

"It's no wonder that George Mikan couldn't make any guarantees during the interview. It turned out that the biggest problem was himself."

"George Mikan should be shot. It's horrible, the Oscars are such a filthy place, I can't believe my ears."

Not only did the fans make such a voice, but even the members of the Oscar jury had a look of disbelief.

The famous French filmmaker Berry Caboco said in an interview: "I really can't believe that the church in my mind will be like this. When choosing the best director, I did choose Xiao. Although Xiao did not finally Winning the trophy makes me feel a little bit regretful, but he attacked Oscar in front of the media, which is unacceptable to me, and I am very disappointed with him for this reason. Unexpectedly, what he said turned out to be true. Damn George Mikan because he sullied the movie and sullied the Oscars. From today onwards, I am afraid that the Oscars will never be perfect in people's hearts."

Actor David Hartnett wrote on his homepage: "I listened to the extremely ugly recording at noon today, and I didn't even eat. What is the Oscar? It is not just a trophy, it is a The dream of every filmmaker in the world. And now that Oscar is dead, the dream is shattered.”

British director Ivan said: "This is not a scandal. The word scandal is far from describing this recording. It is really difficult for me to comment on this because it made me feel extremely sad and desperate in my heart. I just want to say one thing right now, George Duncan, you should go to hell, that is the infernal way Xiao said."

Countless filmmakers are so angry that they want to kill George Duncan.
