Chapter 775 I want it all (4k)
"On its first day of release, "Avengers" took in US$83.57 million, topping the North American box office list."
“‘The Avengers’ grossed nearly US$200 million in the North American market during its first weekend, completely igniting the superhero movie craze and taking Hollywood by storm with the concept of the movie universe model.”
“‘Avengers’: A new era of superhero movies?”
"Hua Xialu's wild words seem to be coming true, and "Avengers" may ignite the topic of the superhero movie universe!"
"..."
I originally thought that what Lu Fei said at the premiere was to build momentum for "Avengers", but what I didn't expect was that he was really not bullshitting.
I have been waiting to see the jokes between Lu Fei and the Han and Tang Dynasties. I was shocked. A movie made the whole Hollywood a sensation.
Every day, there is real-time tracking of movie box office news.
"Don't look at it, Steve, your health is not good now, the doctor asked you to rest more." Laurenna glanced at the TV showing news about Lu Fei and the "Avengers" and frowned.
"The doctor also asked me to control my emotions more."
Jobs stared at Lu Fei in the picture and sneered: "If you look at him more, think of him as exercising."
Laurenna picked up the remote control, lowered the volume, and changed the subject: "Didn't I attend the Disney board meeting on your behalf yesterday? At the meeting, Iger got angry in front of the directors."
"Ige is angry? How strange."
Jobs was surprised.
"It's not the movie that's causing the trouble."
Laurenna rolled her eyes, "Marvel Studios, movie projects, and more than 3,000 superhero IPs were supposed to belong to Disney. However, due to the short-sightedness of some directors, the quotation was $100 million lower than that of Hantang, and they were lost in vain.
The Marvel Cinematic Universe, this is not what I said, this is what Iger said at the meeting."
"Humph, I've told Iger a long time ago that Disney's directors and executives are just a bunch of stupid donkeys. How can you have a good career with stupid donkeys!" Jobs's heart was bleeding.
Watching Lu Fei be proud and making money is even more uncomfortable than losing money yourself.
"There are rumors that Warner is also considering setting up a DC movie universe." Laurenza said helplessly, "Iger is a bit impatient. Disney has no advantage in this area, so he wants to negotiate with Hantang to participate in the follow-up of the Marvel movie universe.
project, he hopes to get your support."
"My support?" Jobs asked curiously.
"Yes, after all, you are Disney's largest individual shareholder and very influential on the board of directors."
Laurenna looked proud.
"No, he was worried that I might not support Disney's cooperation with Han and Tang Dynasties because of the disputes with China Land and Logic." Jobs shook his head.
"Then will you support it?"
"It doesn't matter whether I support it or not. The initiative lies with Huaxia Lu. Will he agree?"
"He will not?"
"Of course not, I know this person too well!"
Jobs snorted coldly. Lu Fei was inhumane to his friends, but he was inhumane to his enemies!
"Anyway, just vote as we should."
Laurenna said: "The most important thing for you now is to recover."
"What's the point of raising a few more months or a few fewer months? I have to meet God in the end anyway." Jobs smiled coldly, "What supports me now is the iPhone 4S launch and Logic's launch. I can never do the same thing as iPhone 4 again."
mistake."
"Didn't Cook have some good news not long ago? There has been a breakthrough in fingerprint recognition technology and it may be available on the iPhone 4S." Laurenna poured him a cup of hot water.
"That's just a poor imitation of logical optical fingerprint recognition. The capacitive type developed by Apple still has no progress."
Jobs gritted his teeth and did not say that compared to the iPhone, Apple's recognition accuracy was lower and its false-touch rate was higher.
His skills are not as good as others, and he is just one move behind!
"It's already very good. iPhone 4S should be the second smartphone with fingerprint recognition in the world. Apple has also made history." Laurenna kept comforting her.
"Not enough, not enough!"
Jobs' face became grim. In addition to solving the problem of fingerprint recognition, iPhone 4S also focused on solving signal defects.
After all, the "Death Grip" and "Signal Gate" public opinion offensive provoked by Lu Fei caused Apple to retreat steadily.
"Steve, don't put too much pressure on yourself. You have stepped down as chairman, so don't worry about it anymore."
Laurenna was so excited that she quickly tried to dissuade her.
"No, I must win against Huaxia Continent and logic, otherwise, I will die with my eyes closed!"
Jobs was like a gambling king who was proficient in gambling, but he always lost to the "God of Gambling" Lu Fei. Poor him, he was manipulated.
"You're going to wear yourself out, Steve."
Laurenna's eyes were slightly red.
Jobs' sickly face flushed.
I have my own principles. I don’t want to be stepped on by Lu Fei for the rest of my life, and I don’t want Apple to always be inferior to logic!
I've been waiting for so long just for an opportunity!
I want to fight for it, not to prove how valuable Apple stocks are, but to tell Lu Fei clearly that I must get back what I lost! Status! Pride! Competence!
"You are already like this. You have retired. Leave Apple's future to Cook. He is your successor."
Laurenna heard him cough and patted him on the back.
"Cook? You can't count on him at all!"
Jobs sneered, "Fortunately, Samsung, Intel, and Samsung convinced the White House and sanctioned Logic. Logic's mobile phones will be rolled out of the United States in the future. Apple can also use this conference to seize the vacated market!"
Then he sighed, "If it were me before, I wouldn't even bother to use these methods. I would use Apple's best products to defeat China Land head-on, but I don't have time now..."
"No, you do!"
Laurenna panicked for a moment.
"Promise me that one day if Apple surpasses logic, it will send a bouquet of flowers to my tombstone." Jobs smiled.
"No, Steve, I don't allow you to say such things, you can wait until that day!" Laurenna was very excited.
"Maybe."
Jobs couldn't help but sigh, fortunately, this year is the last time that the logic phone will be launched in the United States, and there will never be another one in the future.
The TV is still reporting the news.
"Last week, "Avengers" dominated the North American box office with a box office of over 300 million US dollars. There is no doubt that this week's North American box office will still be shrouded in its 'shadow', so the movies released this week are
Some fearless brave men."
"whee."
Ivanka was lying on the bed, smiling from ear to ear.
Lu Fei walked into the special VIP room of the confinement center, "Are you still tired of watching the news about "Avengers" every day?"
"Don't worry about me! Don't you go to Zeng's place every day?"
Ivanka rolled her eyes, "Why don't you go today?"
Lu Fei took a sip of wolfberry tea with big red dates floating in it, "She is going back to China. Her directorial debut is still waiting for her."
"Then she's gone, do you want me to help you arrange it, Scarlett, Olsen, Atwell..."
Ivanka stuck out her tongue and licked her lips.
"Avengers" was an instant hit, and there is no doubt that she is now the most powerful woman in Hollywood.
After all, second- and third-rate stars like Robert Downey Jr. and Chris Evans embraced Han and Tang, got Marvel superhero roles, and suddenly became hot first-tier movie stars. How much is that?
Something people dream of.
"You, you."
Lu Fei shook his head and laughed.
