Chapter 508 (1/2)

Simon returned to Los Angeles on November 6, already Friday.

Tomorrow is the official day of the show.

In the past few days, igrit's main development plans for next year have been finalized, mainly the further deepening of its core products.

In order to increase the recognition of its products, after Amazon, igritte will officially launch its two registered sub brands, Google and Facebook.

Google is naturally involved in the search engine business.

With the exponential growth of Internet sites, the content of cyberspace has increased significantly, and the role of search engine has become more and more obvious. Coupled with Simon's special attention, this network tool has been specially divided.

The latest Internet Explorer to be launched will also add a Google specific search box next to the address bar.

Another example of Facebook is social networking.

Of course, the new version of Facebook is definitely different from Simon's memory. Considering the current network environment, the upcoming separate Facebook business is more inclined to the microblog in Simon's memory, with celebrities and superstars as the traffic guide.

Simon also put forward the auxiliary plan of igritt portal to create a batch of ”Internet celebrities”.

Depending on the resources of the whole westero system, it's easy to do this.

In addition, with the establishment of the Facebook sub brand, the personal homepage and microblog, which have been split up, will be further divided into two products.

Personal home page will gradually develop to personal column, mainly providing information content for igrit portal.

As for Facebook, the core is social.

In addition to Google and Facebook, Amazon's e-commerce business will also start further expansion. It is expected to increase video sales and movie peripheral sales early next year.

It's obvious that there is a competition with blockbuster around the video tapes and movies, but Simon didn't stop it.

Amazon's business expansion is inevitable.

At this stage, in addition to books, the video tape with fixed type and format is also a very suitable product for sale through the network platform.

Around the film, it relies on the resources support of westrow system in Hollywood.

If Amazon gives up these two businesses because of its fear of competition with blockbuster, there will inevitably be no other competitors in the future.

Simon very much agrees with a business philosophy of Steve Jobs in his memory: it's better to eliminate himself than to be eliminated by others.

A lot of old business tycoons just can't get rid of themselves by themselves, and that's the end of the story.

The most typical is the original time line of blockbuster. In order to avoid the erosion of offline leasing business, blockbuster even gave up the opportunity to develop online business and finally went bankrupt.

Naifei is just the opposite of blockbuster. After taking the lead in online leasing, Naifei is not as complacent as blockbuster. Aware of the trend of streaming media industry, Nafi's senior management, regardless of the possible severe impact of streaming media business on physical online leasing, resolutely carried out transformation and finally became a media giant side by side with Disney.

Therefore, Simon doesn't intend to interfere in the competition between Amazon and blockbuster as long as they don't engage in a price war or adopt other indecent means. In fact, he still has an encouraging attitude.

The Internet industry is exploding rapidly, because it slows down when it takes the lead. As a result, it will only be surpassed.

The competitive pattern of Amazon and blockbuster can also urge both sides to develop rapidly in operation, technology and other aspects, so as to avoid laziness.

Carol Bartz is responsible for the Internet infrastructure services related business. Next year's development focus is still cloud computing.

Although it has been successfully applied to support igrit portal products, there is still a lot of room for improvement in cloud computing technology.

The next goal of igritte's cloud computing technology team is to further get rid of IBM and other server equipment suppliers in terms of hardware, directly purchase chips, hard disks and other equipment from the bottom hardware manufacturers such as Intel and Seagate, and design and assemble proprietary data centers on their own, which can greatly reduce the construction cost of data centers. Igritte's cloud computing technology team The level can also get more permissions, which is convenient to design the most suitable software system.

The presidential election has clearly had an impact on the North American box office in the week from October 30 to November 5.

However, in the first week of the project, the midnight bell, released by danielis entertainment on Halloween, still achieved a very good box office result, with a revenue of $28.79 million in seven days and an average of $12000 in the museum, reaching the sales level.

In comparison, the box office of the horror film ”sugar man” released by Samsung, a Columbia subsidiary, in the same period was only 5.19 million US dollars in the first week. Although this film, which tries to follow the ”ghost Street” series, is not a box office fiasco, it did not meet the studio's expectation. It is expected that the total box office in North America will be about 10 million US dollars.

On November 6, there was only one new movie in North American Theaters, passenger 57, a hijacking crime action movie produced by Warner Bros., starring Wesley Snapes, the black movie star who originally starred in the blade series on the time line. Basically, although the scene is moved to the plane, the film is obviously still based on Bruce Willis's ”die hard” series.Simon doesn't have much information about passenger 57 in his memory. What he pays attention to is the midnight bell.

The original Japanese version of ”midnight bell” is a phenomenal movie in Japan. This time, we skip the Japanese version and directly develop the American version. Although Simon adopts the plot structure of the American version in his memory, he still prefers to refer to the Japanese version in terms of lens and soundtrack. Therefore, the lens of evil spirits drilling out of the TV has become the focus of many audiences Classic horror scene.

In the first week, 28.79 million US dollars. With the film's reputation, it's easy for the new version of ”the bell at midnight” to break 100 million US dollars. As for how high it can go, it depends on the subsequent box office curve.

The Japanese have always had the dream of marching into North America in all aspects. The box office sales of the novel midnight bell, adapted from the Japanese novel, have caused a wave of public opinion upsurge in Japan. Danielis entertainment originally had the opportunity to release ”midnight bell” in Japan at the same time. After all, it is a film adapted from a Japanese novel.

However, what we want is the ”pride” of the Japanese after the success of the film. Therefore, the distribution team decided to wait for the release of ”midnight bell” before the Japanese release.

The North American market has always been closed, and there are only a few Japanese films that can sell well in North America. In the original plan, as long as the North American box office of ”midnight bell” can exceed 50 million US dollars, it will be enough to attract strong attention from the Japanese market. Now, the box office of the film in North America is expected to exceed 100 million, and even make it into the top ten of the annual box office list in North America. Then, the next big sale in Japan can be even more expected. Universal studios are designing the theme parks team of Osaka Universal Studios. After the launch of the box office at the first weekend of midnight, the

decided to join the ”ghost house” in the ghost house of Osaka Universal Studios.

Simon had been informed of the box office information of ”midnight bell” in advance. When he returned to Los Angeles, he went directly to the Dorothy Chandler theater in the center of the city.

The Weimi show will be held tomorrow evening, and today is just the last rehearsal.
