Wall Street Legend

  Chapter 329 Trendy

  The yacht set sail very quickly, very stable, if there is no reference object, you can hardly feel that it is moving.

The excitement of getting the Boeing 747 has not yet passed, Ye Dongqing suddenly felt that it would be nice to have such a big ship traveling between Manhattan and her small island, but has she made money recently with crude oil futures and selling Skype? Wrong, but for the sake of personal reputation, it is better to keep a low profile in the near future. After all, not everyone admires his success, but more is jealous.

He drank a glass of tequila as soon as he got on the boat, and he didn't pretend at all, which made Mr. David Geffen even more pleasing to his eyes. He laughed and said, "It's really a remarkable achievement. I still haven't achieved anything when I'm your age. , The times have really changed so that our group of people do not know each other. My good brother Steven Spielberg has been studying the so-called computer special effects technology all day recently. He dreams of shooting another blockbuster movie. Star Wars also had this kind of technology, so Lucas doesn't have to mess around!"

  When it comes to David Geffen, even the most powerful Hollywood star should respect him three points.

It is no exaggeration to say that he is one of the most powerful people in Los Angeles, especially in the entertainment industry. This super rich man who is over 50 years old and worth almost the same as his age, although he can't make movies, is as famous as those gangsters The big directors are all strong, and their circle of contacts is astonishingly wide.

   The top Forbes rich list is full of people who talk about their promises, and Ye Dongqing can feel the enthusiasm of the other party.

To be honest, he still has a lot to learn. It is true that he bought a lot of previous things, but he is still a little short of the mentality of the super rich, whether it is the old man in front of him who loudly tells others his true sexual orientation, or the veteran Huahua The son Larry Ellison and others are living according to their truest ideas, but he worries about too many things and often feels tired.

   But it may be because they are young. When they reach their age, I believe they don’t care too much. If they have so much money and don’t live as they want, why should they fight until they are at this age? They can retire long ago.

  In the early morning, not long after the first glass of wine, she drank a second glass after eating a few slices of watermelon, which made Ye Dongqing worry that the group of people in front of her would be drunk before she reached the fishing spot.

  Tim Cook met David Geffen because of some special parties. It’s been a few years, so it doesn’t matter if he doesn’t drink. People know that he doesn’t drink much, and he is always busy with business matters.

  He blinked deliberately at Ye Dongqing earlier, which made Ye Dongqing full of doubts. He guessed that it was probably not a coincidence that they met, so he took care to pretend that he could not drink enough to avoid making any stupid decisions after drinking too much.

With a smile on his face, he replied: "I'm very interested in Hollywood, and recently I invested in a movie specifically, but unlike ordinary movies, the script is customized, mainly to advertise my company's products, and I will also enter Theatrical distribution, if it can recover the cost, that would be great."

"Remember to find me next time, I will recommend the best director for you, who is the director you invited?" Mr. Geffen asked him, his face was already turning red, the sun is good today, and the waters of California in June are already relatively hot , with a white cap on his head.

   "Mr. Brian Palmer."

   “…Oh, that guy is not bad, I’ve seen it a few times at parties before.”

Steven Spielberg is Mr. Geffen's partner. The two have worked together for so many years. He is qualified to say that the director who filmed the first part of "Mission: Impossible" is just not bad. It is wrong to skip this topic. Let’s talk, let’s prepare the fishing rod first.

Seeing that he didn't want to get right to the point, Ye Dongqing didn't bother to ask any further questions. He picked a fishing rod at random and began to prepare hooks and fake baits. There was a box of live clam worms in the box next to it. It looked disgusting, including pork, beef, and animal offal. The stuff was stirred and gave off a stench. They will be poured into the sea later to attract prey. Several crew members are preparing.

  The common hobbies of rich people are nothing more than that, such as raising horses, golf, tennis, fishing, drinking, smoking cigars, picking up girls, and so on.

Little Edward's mother is rich, and Richard Rockefeller's grandfather is rich, but they are not as good as Ye Dongqing. There are too many brothers and sisters in Karkawi's family, and even he himself doesn't know how many there are. Surely there is no need to worry about food and drink, but it is still unknown how much money will be allocated.

I usually play with them, but I accidentally changed the circle today. The super rich can no longer be judged simply by how much money they have. At least David Geffen is invincible in the entertainment industry. He has no conflict of interest with Ye Dongqing. So we got along quite happily, and the result of the conversation was that the third glass of wine was quickly consumed, which made Ye Dongqing feel that the old man wanted to get himself drunk. The alcohol content of tequila is often higher than that of whiskey. Stomach.

  I was listless when I went out in the morning, but now I feel refreshed...

David Geffen also brought a few friends, one of whom was the drummer of the Eagles, Ye Dongqing didn't recognize it, and was a little surprised. The song "Hotel California" became popular all over the world, so he had heard it, and others said It was not until now that the Eagles were once under Mr. Geffen's hands, so it's normal to get closer.

Suppressing his stomach full of doubts, when Apple's interim CEO Cook went to the bathroom, he followed him, looked back, and asked no one: "What's going on today? If you pour me again, I'll be really drunk. We are a team!"

Amused by this sentence, Mr. Cook smiled and told: "I just want to talk to you about cooperation. Geffen wants to sell some movies on your Youtube website, and also has the idea of ​​​​cooperating with you to start a new company." , selling movies exclusively on the Internet, isn’t there any technical difficulty in this?”

   "Understood, this old man is very trendy, and he can even think of this, but the current network transmission speed is too slow, it is difficult to watch short films, and movies are even more stressful. Otherwise, my Youtube would not be as miserable as it is now."

The misery Ye Dongqing said was already a success in the eyes of others. More than 20 million registered users and hundreds of thousands of users uploaded video content. Daily active users are definitely more than the current mere 800,000 people.

  It is similar to his previous idea. It has to be operated slowly and waited for. The current valuation is only about 400 million US dollars, and the market prospect is predictable.

Recently, many companies are developing similar products, which makes Ye Dongqing regret that he realized the idea of ​​a video social platform early on. He should hold back for another two or three years. With Facebook's terrifying user base, he is not afraid that he will not be able to get up by then. Come…
