Silicon Valley

The popularity of computers in the United States was relatively early. After Apple launched the first real personal computer in 1977, personal computers flourished in the United States. In the long 10 years of 1987, computers were not rare in the United States Things, at most, are a slightly more expensive item, which many rich people buy. The only limitation to the popularity of the Internet is the development of the network backbone!

The development of the network backbone is obviously linked to interests!

In the previous life, Cisco only reluctantly launched routers in 1986, and the promotion speed was very slow. Naturally, those capitalists would not bother and invest a large amount of money to operate the US Science Foundation Network. But even so, in 1987, the number of hosts connected to the Internet exceeded 10,000. Now, because of Henry's participation, Cisco has developed rapidly, and has launched router products in 1985. After that, Sequoia Capital did not take advantage of it, raised 20 million yuan, and added more horsepower to Cisco's car, and the US Science Foundation has developed faster and more commercialized.

In the information collected by Henry, a total of 65,000 computer users in the United States are connected to inter, and there are more than 10,000 private users in addition to school computers, governments, research institutions, and companies. The expensive network access fee has become one of the factors restricting ordinary people from joining the network, but because of the profitability, many large consortiums are actively developing new commercial backbone networks!

The IMDB website is the most popular among universities. Young people like movies and communication, and IMDB provides them with this condition. On January 15, 1987, the IMDB website gave "LuxoJr." a cover letter, beautiful and lovely pictures, vivid and interesting introduction, many netizens expressed interest in it after reading the information, and the overall score was 90.

In order to promote the animated short film, the data introduced that the protagonist of the film was dubbed by the famous genius novelist Henry Williams!

Henry Williams is almost a household name in the United States, and is N times more famous than Han Han and Guo Jingming in China. The "Harry Potter" series of novels have sold more than 40 million copies, which is a very exaggerated number, which is simply breathtaking, and he is only twelve years old now. Such a gifted American child, if the media does not Reporting, no propaganda, if people don't regard him as an American idol, this is not America...

The IMDB website specially made an exclusive interview with Henry Williams, and the content of the interview was mainly to ask about the situation of the short film.

Henry is naturally a big boast, saying that "LuxoJr." is the best animated short he has ever seen so far, and Pixar Animation Studios is the best team he has ever seen!

The media noticed Henry's news and immediately began to report, and the IMDB website also appeared in the newspaper!

The IMDB website and LuxoJr. were originally known only on the Internet, but now even people who don't have access to the Internet know about it. Because of Henry, they are very curious about this genius children's language, just like chasing stars, they want to know what he is doing. Now I know that he actually dubbed an animated short "LuxoJr.", and also praised the film as excellent. This undoubtedly makes most people curious about "LuxoJr.".

"LuxoJr." has gradually gained popularity, and just in time for the Oscar short animation, which has greatly helped "LuxoJr." to be nominated for an award!

Soon after, Henry released a new book, "Jurassic Park," which immediately sold out. West German Press's first print of 500,000 copies sold out in one day, followed by a million copies.

"Jurassic Park" shocked the United States and immediately topped the best-selling list of American novels.

There are already long queues outside bookstores in New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco and many other cities, and some people even have to wait two or three hours to buy a book. The exaggeration shocked the media!

The Los Angeles Times reports: "Los Angeles traffic jams because of 'Jurassic Park'!"

The New York Times reported: "Today America only knows Jurassic Park!"

The Wall Street Journal reported: "There are times when Wall Street doesn't trade stocks because they're all lining up to buy books!"

"Jurassic Park" is a sci-fi adventure novel that tells the story of Dr. Hammond convening a large number of scientists to extract the genetic genes of dinosaurs from the blood of dinosaurs in the bodies of prehistoric mosquitoes condensed in amber, and make the prehistoric behemoth that has been extinct for 65 million years. The resurrection makes the entire Nublar Island a paradise for dinosaurs, that is, "Jurassic Park". But on Hammond's first tour with his grandkids, the dinosaurs were in full swing! ! !

The American people were stunned by all kinds of whimsy and adventures in "Jurassic Park", and expressed their deep admiration for Henry, even thinking of such a story!

Henry's novels not only sold, but soared in popularity.

At the same time, people are more and more interested in the animated short film "LuxoJr." dubbed by Henry. When they learned that "LuxoJr." entered the Academy Award for Animated Short Film, they couldn't help expressing their support!

The Oscar judges themselves are very fond of "LuxoJr.", and now the public has a high voice for "LuxoJr." winning the award.

After the news was released, the Pixar team immediately cheered, opened champagne, and celebrated!

Henry also attended the celebration, but it didn't take long for him to leave. They actually don't agree to drink by themselves, saying that American law does not allow children to drink alcohol, really, Chinese law is better...

Henry did not go home immediately, he went to the West German publishing house.

He came this time to discuss a business.

Edward Joe, the CEO of West German Publishing House and the largest shareholder of West German Publishing House, is smoking in the office at the moment, with a contemplative look on his face.

The book "Jurassic Park" is selling well. It stands to reason that Edward should be very happy, but at the moment, he is a little dazed in his heart, like the cigarette butt flickering in his mouth! There was a knock on the door, and a beautiful female secretary walked in. Edward ignored her beauty, or he wasn't in the mood to play with unspoken rules right now.

"Is Henry here?"

"Yes, I have been waiting for you in the reception room."

"Okay, I'll go right away."

Edward Joe straightened his clothes and went out.

Henry drank his coffee slowly, with a faint smile on his face.

After Edward Joe entered, he forced a smile, stretched out his hand, and said, "Welcome, Henry!"

"Edward, you don't seem to welcome me very much?"

"How can..."

Henry smiled, stretched out his hand to shake him, and said, "Edward, since "Jurassic Park" has achieved great success, let's discuss the issue of investing in shares!"

Before the release of the new book, Henry signed an agreement with West German Press. If "Jurassic Park" is successful again, West German Press will agree to Henry's participation in West Germany and hold 30% of the shares, and the stock price will be according to Internal original stock calculation. If Henry's stake is successful, then Henry will become the largest shareholder of West German Press, and Edward will become the second shareholder.

West German Press has more than ten large and small shareholders, and Edward only holds 26% of the shares in West German Press. Henry's investment in West Germany is what the shareholders of the board of directors, big and small, are happy to see and have always hoped. Only by firmly tying the interests of the publishing house to Henry can the publishing house make more money! The popularity of "Jurassic Park" proved Henry's worth! ! !

But Edward Joe had his own thoughts. He was worried that when Henry became the largest shareholder of West German Press, he would rob him of his position and shake his position on the board of directors.

In fact, he was unfounded. Henry, a busy man, had no intention of managing a publishing house. His stake in the West German Press is only for the purpose of laying out an Internet entertainment media empire in the future. With the help of Henry, the West German publishing house has grown stronger and stronger and has the potential to become a first-class publishing house.

In fact, Henry only needed to follow the agreement to become a shareholder in the West German Press, and he did not have to talk to Edward alone. But Henry said that he had to take the overall situation into consideration and stabilize the West German Press, so he explained it to Edward: "Edward, although I am a shareholder of West German Press, I do not participate in the daily management of the company, and the company is business as usual! "

When Edward heard this, his heart was overjoyed, and he suddenly became enthusiastic, and greeted the female secretary for coffee, good coffee.

"Henry, come, drink coffee, the best Blue Mountains!"

"..." Henry was speechless.

At the end of December last year, both Penguin and West German Publishing House paid Henry a total of 15 million US dollars, sent 9 million to George Lucas, and left 6 million, and he still had 4 million in his bank card. So Henry now has $10 million left.

West German Publishing House is considered to be a leader among the middle American publishing houses, and it is ready to go public. After going public, its market value will inevitably exceed 100 million US dollars. But when Henry bought shares, he bought original shares! Ten million is enough to get 30% of the shares. And once the news of Henry's stake in West German Publishing House came out, West German Publishing House's share price would definitely increase significantly, so the shareholders of West German Publishing House were actually not at a loss.

Before any listed company goes public, it must find some big companies to subscribe for shares. why is that? It is not to give investors confidence and raise the stock price.

Look, so many great companies have bought this stock, this stock must go up! ! ! !

Henry still has a very large influence in the national publishing industry, think about his age, think about his achievements! If Henry takes a stake in West German Press, it will mean that West German Press will be reborn, and its identity will be completely different from before. Before, it just published Henry's novels, but other publishing houses may poach Henry at any time! But now it doesn't work anymore. Once Henry is tied to the West German Publishing House, with Henry's genius, the West German Publishing House must also soar into the sky.

This is something that savvy investors know clearly!

Henry's 10 million yuan could not be used to buy West German Publishing House shares. He and West German Publishing House agreed to use the future manuscript fees of "Jurassic Park" to pay. So, why did Henry sign an agreement with the publishing house before, and only after the success of "Jurassic Park" was Henry allowed to become a shareholder in West Germany! ! !

Henry and Edward chatted for a while, then went home.

Soon, West German Publishing House began a roadshow to build momentum for the listing. Henry's stake in West German Press was also touted. As for the details of the stake, he did not inform the media. (vote……)
