After Song Ya confessed a few words, he hurriedly went out: "Let's all go to the conference room for a meeting."
"APLUS." Jeffrey Johnson caught up and pulled him aside. "That's a lot of capital expenditure, our debt ratio, stock price..."
Palm has had a very difficult time in the past two years. After carrying the burden of IBM's personal computer department, it has to compete on multiple lines with walkmans, music stores, laptops, smartphones, PDAs and IT giants.
"Think of a way together."
With a bright future enlightened by the apocalypse, Song Ya at least never doubted the general direction. “Grit your teeth and hold on to Jeffrey. Perseverance is victory.”
The corporate atmosphere has a lot to do with Jeffrey Hawkins, who is obsessed with brain-computer research and is not good at controlling people, but this does not mean that he is willing to give up his CEO power and leave Palm.
Song Ya planned to recruit Rubinstein, who had left Apple, to follow Apple's philosophy thoroughly.
Of course, he will give Jeffrey this old friend one last chance.
"There is no other option, we must follow up with Apple's smartphone route this time." He repeatedly emphasized at the meeting, unifying his thinking.
"The full keyboard Tero series..." Jeffrey Hawkins was reluctant to create the Treo product line by himself.
"Except for the existing projects, let's stop the follow-up plan. The company doesn't have so many resources to take care of."
Song Ya made a decision.
Fortunately, Ryutaro Yamamoto's judgment was right. After the iPhone conference, Apple set the launch date in the middle of the year.
"John, welcome."
In February, Palm and John Rubinstein hit it off. Song Ya, who was eager for talent, personally welcomed the former Apple cadre and the head of the iPod project at the headquarters.
"Jean, Donna, you all came from Apple, right?"
When Jobs learned that he had come to Palm, he was furious and declared that he would never talk to him again. His arrival also made the current Palm ‘Apple Gang’ lineup more swell.
"Yes." Rubinstein shook hands with Jean-Louis Gasser and Donna Dubinsky, "Hello, hello..."
He will be responsible for the research and development of mobile devices and operating systems, as well as the follow-up research and development of the Beats Walkman. Therefore, the atmosphere of the first meeting of the Apple Gang reunion is general, and the powers of the three overlap each other.
Song Ya has no good solution for the time being. In any case, he will first pile up resources and make the products of the standard iPhone. Let's talk about the future.
The main energy has to be put on Disney to help Linton gain control of the board of directors.
"The best acoustics for the 79th Oscars are! Quincy Jones and...Congratulations!"
On the eve of another Disney shareholder meeting, the Oscars ceremony was held. Burst Drummer received seven nominations, and the first best sound effect was won.
This is also the first time Quincy Jones has won the award after being nominated seven times. He has only received the 67th Gene Hersholt Humanitarian Award before.
Song Ya and Rashida stood up and applauded to the old man. He was also very happy, embracing all the crew with tears in his eyes.
After that, his best sound editing failed, and the second time Dream Broken, Song Ya's nomination for best original screenplay did not win the award.
"take it easy."
Song Ya comforted Rashida, who had been on the shelf for the first time, as she squeezed her arm tightly.
"I'm afraid..."
"What are you afraid of? We are sure to win." Song Ya was very sure.
"The best editing award, the winner is: Burst Drummer! APLUS and..."
Before the voice was over, Song Ya defeated the main opponent, Infernal Walker, at the Best Editing Award.
Amid the attention and applause of countless people, he calmly buttoned the dress button, and Rashida's red lips had been blocked.
There were not many strong opponents for the Oscars this year, and the Weinstein brothers simply did not come to the scene. JK Simmons of the Burst Drummer crew subsequently won the best male match.
"The best director nominations are: Martin Scorsese, Infinite Walker; Clint Eastwood, Iwo Jima's Letters; Larry Jordan, Burst Drummer..."
Finally, this awards ceremony entered the most important link.
Old Larry has accumulated a lot of points over the years, but there is still a big gap with Martin Scorsese. The old man held the handrail with both hands and leaned back. When the camera lens came over, he quickly smiled and applauded.
"The winner is..."
The organizing committee arranged three super directors, Coppola, Spielberg, and Lucas to jointly present this award. This lineup is supposed to be prepared for Martin Scorsese or Clint Eastwood.
"Larry Jordan, burst drummer, congratulations!" Spielberg and Lucas humbly asked Coppola, director of the Godfather's trilogy, to announce the names of the winners.
The Burst Drummer crew jumped up and cheered for the old Larry. Song Ya took the opportunity to observe Martin Scorsese, Li Zi, Matt Damon and other members of the Infinite Walker crew. They were not bad, they all showed perfect demeanor, Xiao Li laughed The most brilliant.
The old Larry, who had finally attained Zhengguo, was satisfied, and the gray-haired man came to the stage and choked with thanksgiving.
"Damn it!"
George Mitchell stared at Song Ya, who was a tycoon in the picture, and simply turned off the TV. The old man had been exhausted from years of Disney infighting. After Paulson's resignation from Goldman Sachs, it was not going anywhere. , He reached out and picked up a piece of paper on the table. It was just given to him by the doctor today. It was a diagnosis report of his prostate cancer, "Damn!"
Misfortunes never come singly, and curses continue to be heard in the chairman's office.
"APLUS created and deeply participated in the burst drummer this year, seven mentions and five, the best director, best film all won!"
The times come and the world is all in the same force. In March, the Disney shareholders meeting ended. Linton was willing to replace a director with his own person. On the board of directors that implemented the shareholders meeting resolution the next day, he shouted: "We can't hesitate anymore. No longer want to keep A+ Entertainment, APLUS will hand over all the films under his family to other companies for distribution in the future!"
"Don't worry about the creative passion of billionaires. APLUS and A+ Entertainment have signed five more movie scripts and related creative contracts. They also have a popular Twilight series, which is even a big money printing machine!"
"We have been arguing at the conference for more than a year! If you listened to me early, A+ Entertainment would be much cheaper than it is now!"
"It will get more and more expensive!"
"Think about it, the dance my life series, Fifty Shades of Grey, Blade Warrior and other series that have been sealed for a long time will be available for shooting again in a few years!"
"A+ Entertainment also enjoys the long-term benefits of the Titanic! And a large-scale movie copyright library!"
"Intern Grey also has the potential for longevity dramas!"
"There is no such healthy second-tier production company in Hollywood. Think about Paramount's burden of the mess of debts left by the Big Three in order to buy DreamWorks Studios!"
"Okay, okay, my mouth is dry, let's vote!"
"Huh! Pass! It's **** difficult!"
'Disney announced today that it will acquire A+ Entertainment in the form of a payment of shares. After the transaction is completed, APLUS will acquire about 5% of Disney's shares. Together with the Disney stocks he previously owned, he will total about 100%. 7.7 Shareholding instantly rose to Disney's largest individual shareholder! ’
This transaction instantly detonated the world, ‘this is also the first non-white rich man of African-Chinese descent in history to control Hollywood’s first-line production company and the second largest television network...’
