Chapter 115

Adam finally started writing here, writing the sequel to the popular "The Witcher". Over there, "The Witcher" extra-part "Sord's Revenge" has already exceeded one million pre-orders within half a month. Breaking through 300 million copies, although it is still incomparable with the main story of "The Witcher", it is still a big hit. It will break through 800 million copies within the year, and it is possible to break through [-] million copies in the end.

This achievement barely satisfies Adam. In terms of quality, the quality of "The Witcher: Thord's Revenge" is rough compared to the main story. The gap between the grammar and the plot is quite obvious. Especially for the serialization, some plots are not very rigorous. Although it can be corrected in the later stage, but after all, the initial impression has been made during the serialization, so it is difficult to change it back.

The second "Wizard" took over the first plot. Originally, Adam's plan was to let the protagonist enter the Wizarding Union, become a student of a certain college, and then enter the Wizarding Academy to study step by step, and many wonderful events happened in the middle.

Then the whole "Witcher's School Season" uses the weird world of wizards to attract readers' attention, and buy it in the dark, and finally breaks out, just like Harry Potter, mainly about youth and campus story.

However, in the later time, Adam finally vetoed the outline of the story. It is not that the whole story line is suspected of plagiarizing Harry Potter, but that the positioning of "Wizard" is different from that of "Harry Potter". Similarly, "Harry Potter" is aimed at children and young adults, while "Wizard" is more aimed at adults, so if the original outline and story line are used to write a sequel, the final result will be a disaster. sexual.

What's more, the first book has a tight rhythm and a full story. People are always caught by the story and can't relax for a moment. If it is replaced with the original design, the style is too different, even bigger than the difference between the side story and the main story. This is unacceptable.

Therefore, during this period of time, Adam was mainly alienated from the design outline. If the Eden novel creation team could help in the process of writing the book, they would not be able to intervene in the outline of this novel.

In order to continue the previous style and story line, Adam can only introduce new variables in this story to disturb the overall situation of the entire wizarding world, thus triggering major changes in the wizarding world, so that it will be oppressive.

In addition, the protagonist is the protagonist after all, but the strength of the protagonist is really not on the stage. Here we need to consider how to insert the protagonist in the collision between the general trends, but not too much, and at the same time show the growth of the protagonist. is something to consider.

Since there were not many things to do in April and May, most of them just followed the routine, so Adam moved into Carol's house with a burden on his back. First, he made up for the time he lost due to busyness, and he came here to relax himself. Let me find inspiration for myself, after all, I can't automatically come up with a good plot if I stay in the studio all the time.

Carroll's Windows and pac versions of Eden Browser have been released, and the latter needs to develop new versions. The most important thing is to develop new products for the intranet of the enterprise. Computer users, these are the big ones who can really make their first income.

Of course, it does not mean that the new generation of Eden facing netizens will not be developed. Naturally, it needs to be developed. If the new products developed for the intranets of major enterprises are for the sake of the present, then the browser developed for ordinary computer users The computer is to pave the way for the future. After all, compared with today's petty profits, the hundreds of millions or even more than one billion computer users in the future are the foundation that can really make them rich.

1993 was the first year of Clinton’s official administration. The so-called three fires for a new official to take office. In addition to taxes and medical care that all presidents like to talk about, but they didn’t talk about Clinton’s success, that is the establishment of the Internet. It can be said that Clinton really left The political legacy to the United States is that he vigorously developed the Internet during his tenure. His move made the United States completely lead the world in this brand-new industrial reform.If it weren't for the containment of China's Internet Great Wall, it would have been impossible for American companies to enter the mainland smoothly in the initial stage of Internet development, and there would be no doubt that the U.S. Internet would unify the world.

And Clinton's vigorous development of the Internet will also lead to an explosive growth of Internet users in the United States in the next few years, giving birth to the first generation of real Internet companies. These companies, such as Yahoo, Amazon and even Netscape, are all outstanding For a while, Amazon even continued its global e-commerce dynasty for decades, and its founder had the opportunity to touch the throne of the world's richest man.

However, it is still too early to say these, what Adam has to consider now is how to upgrade the new version so that users are willing to spend dollars to buy their company's software, which is crucial.

After discussing the version 1.0 of Eden, in addition to continuing to improve its running speed and performance, at the same time open the plug-in architecture, so that third-party programmers can develop additional functions on it, which can attract many computer program lovers, and also let Eden's The function is more abundant.

In addition, the official version of Eden 1.0 should preferably support Java applet (a small program that can run on a web page), so that the browser's static web page looks more vivid and enhance the user's experience of dynamic effects.

Finally, it was also mentioned by Adam, that is to create a "World Wide Web Wizard" in the browser. On this wizard, those commonly used and famous website addresses are listed on it, so that users who use the Eden browser save the need to enter the World Wide Web address. A step of.

At the same time, many users who often use the World Wide Web no longer have to worry about remembering the World Wide Web addresses of these websites. It can be said that this is an excellent idea dedicated to the convenience of users. When Adam proposed it, it was received by all meeting members. Unanimously agreed and stated that this should be the first task that needs to be done.

However, adding a "World Wide Web Wizard" in the form of a website compilation tool to embed it on the homepage of the website is not too difficult a job, but the attraction to users is so great that it is unimaginable, otherwise there would be no phonebook and yellow pages in reality. exists.

During the time that Adam stayed at Carol's side, he happened to avoid the most noisy national event. To be honest, although Adam didn't do it on purpose as a fire starter, but with the help of this national event, it can be said to be After earning enough profits, the novel was sold well, the newspaper was transformed, and his personal reputation also rose rapidly, and he won a good evaluation from the entire United States, which can be said to be a great help to his future development.

However, after Adam published a supportive article in the newspaper in his own name, he no longer showed up, which is indeed a bit unkind. Therefore, Adam used Tonares to let him use other means to deal with them as much as possible. Help, just don't show too much traces, money doesn't matter, after all, in the past two years of development, Adam's ability to hold money is definitely not comparable to few people.

However, Adam himself knows that this is actually just the beginning, because the real big profits are yet to come, such as the upcoming "Jurassic Park".

After joining Warner as a new line, he devoted all his big moves. Although the market is generally pessimistic, even with the cost pressure, it can kill [-]% of Hollywood movies, let alone "Jurassic Park", which was produced by a new country. It is adapted from the first and female novels created by super best-selling author Adam Baker, among which Adam Baker directly served as the screenwriter of the film, and it is even rumored that the new director sells copies, and he strongly recommends it to New Line. The investment is not much less than the new line.

The unlucky Sony Columbia has been losing money year after year since it was cheated by Hollywood and buried a lot of money in Columbia. This year, it finally saved enough character and decided to explode. The new works are either world-renowned action stars, or they are Hollywood. Famous actors, or adaptations of popular themes, it can be said that each one has the possibility of a big hit.

However, they didn't expect Xinxian to be a scumbag, and directly parachuted their movie "Jurassic Park" into the summer file without any reason, forming a full-scale confrontation with him.

Although Nobuyuki Idei doesn't think that such a huge investment will be able to pay back, but as a movie with big IP and big investment, even considering the fan effect, the box office in the first week still has some gains. At the same time, because of its large volume, It is destined to crowd out the number of movie theaters of its own movies. It can be said that after the completion of the new line's finalizing action, it has basically formed competition with Sony Columbia.

"Jurassic Park" is scheduled to be released at the end of May, which has no effect, after all, it is three weeks away from "Jurassic Park", but "Sleepless in Seattle", which was scheduled for the same week early, would be bad, otherwise it will be moved. Open the schedule and push back half a month to avoid this trend, or you must form a head-on confrontation with it.

To be honest, as an out-and-out Japanese, he likes and recognizes monster movies very much. After all, Japanese people have Godzilla plots.However, as the president of a company, you must consider the risks and losses of changing files. What's more, this year is Sony's first bloody fight after many years of dormancy, and it is ready to create a big scene. It's nothing to move the company's big investment, after all, it's a newcomer.

But facing a newcomer who is just about to enter Hollywood, the company of Warner Holdings, and the investment directors are so unreliable, and no one is watching the movie, and he is scared to change the file, then he will definitely become the laughing stock of Hollywood.

What's more, after watching the finished film, this movie will definitely be a classic love movie. With the blessings of Lao Tang and American Sweet Girl, even if the first day will be slightly inferior due to the fan attributes of the other party, but no matter how good the word of mouth is, , will definitely rise on the weekend, and even winning the championship in the first week is extremely possible.

As for the few subordinates he sent out, whether it was because of cultural issues or because the new line was really guarded so tightly, they never heard enough credible news.So under various factors, Nobuyuki Idei could only bite the bullet and not change the premiere time, and confronted "Jurassic Park".

At the end of May, the action movie "Beautiful Mountain" starring Stallone was officially released. After all, the nearly 50-year-old action superstar lived up to Nobuyuki Idei's expectations. In the first week, he won the box office champion with a weekly box office of 2000 million amidst a lot of praise. At the same time, in the second week without blockbuster blockade, it continued to win the championship for one week, with a total box office close to 4000 million in two weeks.

At this time, "Jurassic Park", which amazed countless audiences in the Super Bowl and was despised by the media, finally officially started his road to conquest amidst the roar of Tyrannosaurus rex.
