November 3, Monday, new week.
Today is Seattle's fourth birthday.
Seattle and her younger brother Nicholas, who was born three days late, were registered under Janet's name as twins. Although the family is less and less concerned about these things, they still spend their birthdays together and usually choose one on the weekend.
This time, it's different. November 3 is Monday, and November 6 is Thursday. It's not a weekend.
However, just as the two children's eldest and second uncles came to North America to visit their relatives, they decided to hold a birthday party this evening.
The two families delayed their return to Australia for one day.
Simon is still at work today.
When Simon arrived at the company, the first document he got was the box office data of North America for the past weekend.
During the three-day weekend from October 31 to November 2, due to various breakthrough settings, the widely debated "evocation 3: Blood Moon" reached the top without any suspense. In the first weekend, with the large-scale opening of 3354 screens and the high reputation, "evocation 3" made 46.71 million US dollars at one stroke, higher than 46.13 million US dollars in the first seven days of "evocation 2".
For the evocation movie universe series, Simon has been deliberately guiding the establishment of a perfect human ghost confrontation system, so as to form a certain model process, rather than just relying on accidents or mouth guns to defeat ghosts like many western horror movies.
Remarkable achievements have been made in these years.
"Evocation 3" is Simon's bolder attempt, adding a lot of new settings directly. Of course, as a girl can easily see, most of the settings, such as ghost hitting the wall, such as willpower coins, such as newborn baby tears, and so on, are actually adapted and evolved from various traditional Chinese Supernatural legends on the other side of the ocean.
You can imagine the risks.
If Western audiences don't buy it and think that many of the settings are nonsense, "evocation 3" may not be a horror movie, but a comedy. Fortunately, this situation has not happened. Even from the feedback from the media and the public in recent days, more people believe it. As a result, all kinds of ironic social news have come out.
Simon is not surprised that "the witch Blair" was once believed to be a big hit.
The elite in the United States is very elite, of course, but the middle and lower classes Whether now or in the future, too many facts have proved that these people are really not very smart.
At the same time, all kinds of ghost costumes and other props in "evocation 3" have become popular during Halloween.
In an e-mail to Simon, Amy Pascal said with regret that if he had known that, he should have let evocation 3 release a few days earlier.
In this way, with the large-scale fermentation of public opinion, the surrounding areas will sell better.
However, since evocation 3 was painted on October 31, the Hallows Eve, many members of the public have already bought their own halloween themed props in advance, so it is not easy to replace them temporarily. Although the series of "soul 3" has been sold in advance, and the sales volume is not bad, it lacks the popularity of the film, otherwise the sales volume will be better.
The plan has never been able to keep up with the changes, which we can't do.
After all, if it's released a week in advance, once the feedback is not so good, the next week may not get much of the holiday bonus of that week.
There's always a trade-off.
What's more, the high box office of 46.71 million US dollars in the three days of the first weekend also made people have no regrets.
"Evocation 3", which ranks first in the list, has occupied too much market share, causing a serious impact on the box office of other new and old films.
In the past three days, it has dropped 35% year-on-year, with revenue of US $7.82 million and cumulative box office of US $193.78 million. It is expected that after a full week, there will be a gap of at least US $4 million from the 200 million threshold. We can only expect to break through next week.
However, "ghost record" is still good. It still ranks second in the sixth week of its release, which also shows the box office performance of other recent films.
Third on the list, the ghost themed movie possessed by the dead, produced by Warner Bros., started a week ahead of schedule to avoid competition with evocation 3. As a result, it became a typical example of losing public praise and being unable to enjoy the bonus of the Halloween season.
With a media rating of only 4.7 points and the reputation of variety magazine as "a bad imitation of the universe of the evocation movie", although Hollywood tycoon Al Pacino was invited to take part, after the box office of $14.93 million in the first week, even with the popularity support of Halloween in the next weekend, it still dropped 43% year-on-year and earned only $6.03 million. In ten days, the budget cost is $30 million, and the cumulative box office is only $20.96 million.
Although it's not a failure. It's estimated that more than 30 million yuan will be sold locally, and some more will be sold overseas. Taking into account the surrounding channels, it will certainly recover the cost and achieve profits, but this is obviously far lower than Warner Brothers' expectation.
You know, in the publicity stage of the film, Warner expressed his ambition to make a trilogy.I dare not mention the universe.
Now, it is estimated that the local box office is not as much as the three-day weekend revenue of "evocation 3", so the trilogy will surely become a joke.
The box office of the second and third place in the weekend list is less than 10 million, so you can imagine the rest.
It's not worth mentioning.
But Simon found one of the most interesting films.
It's a science fiction film, produced by paramount, with a budget of $25 million, which started with evocation 3 last Friday. It's called gene code. Ethan Hawke, the star of love before dawn, and UMA Thurman, who was transformed from poison ivy to panther in wonder woman 2 by Simon.
The three-day box office revenue of the film in the first weekend was only $3.17 million, a complete failure. However, the setting of the story is very interesting.
The story tells of a future in which genes determine one's future. Ethan Hawke plays Vincent, who can only live to 30 years old due to genetic defects. In order to realize his space dream, he colludes with Jerome, another young man with excellent genes but half paralyzed due to an accident, to exchange identities in order to get the chance to become an astronaut.
The following plot is not good enough, just look at this setting, look at this setting So again, it proves that Hollywood is a circle.
People are like this, so are movies.
After going through the box office in the past three days, Simon dealt with some daily documents. At 10 o'clock, it was a meeting jointly held by danielis, igritte and Tinkerbell. It was a combination of on-site participation and video connection. Some of the other two executives came from San Francisco in person, while Jeff Bezos of igritte and c-girl of tincobail participated through video communication.
About the game.
More accurately, it's the game console.
Simon has been thinking about it for a long time, even for some years.
Should the westero system make a game console in person?
In the early days, they didn't have enough strength, so they didn't think too much.
Now, the time, the place and the people are in harmony, and there is no shortage of anything. Whether we do it or not is just a matter of whether we do it or not.
Simon finally decided to do it.
So here's the problem.
Why host?
First of all, from the perspective of users, one is price, the other is experience.
Whether it is now or in the future, if you want to support the most top-level games, personal computers need to invest more money in stacking top-level configurations. The customized and optimized game console can not only perfectly support all kinds of large-scale games, but the price will be much cheaper. As for experience, no matter now or in the future, the display effect of TV sets is far away from the computer screen.
This is the biggest advantage of the game console.
Secondly, from the perspective of game manufacturers.
The game console itself is difficult to make profits, which was proved by Microsoft's huge losses for many years. However, through the host platform, Microsoft has become one of the leading game producers and distributors in the world. Later, the revenue scale of its game business was ranked among the top five in the world, leaving EA and Blizzard behind.
It can be said that Microsoft is losing money on hardware, but the whole game business is not losing money.
Not only Microsoft, but also Sony and Nintendo, which have their own game platforms, have long been among the top game manufacturers in the world in terms of related business revenue. It can be said that the top five game manufacturers in the world and three with host platforms directly account for three.
This is enough to prove the power of the platform.
Simon has always been interested in online games because of the game industry environment he used to be in. In the same global ranking, except for three console manufacturers, the other two are basically locked by online game manufacturers. Even if it was a stand-alone game, Simon once preferred PC games.
However, after years of understanding, based on all kinds of information in his memory, he can also judge that console games will always occupy a large part of the global output value of more than 100 billion US dollars in the future.
This is the reason why the westero system must be the host.
And now is the right time.
In terms of hardware, it's not a problem whether it's using Intel or AMD chips, or developing its own PowerPC architecture that has been determined to be marginalized after tincobail's acquisition of apple. On the operating system, Apple's technology foundation and core patents, together with the long-term accumulation of westero system in Linux system, can solve the problem.
In a word, the first generation of Playstation launched by Sony three years ago adopted Linux system or a Linux version licensed from igritte. Westero system to develop game console, not surprisingly, the core of the operating system, will also be Linux.
This is the conflict.
Since it is imperative, of course, we can't take care of it.
However, for Sony, because it is a permanent license for the relevant version, the westero system can no longer be recovered. The other side will carry out subsequent update research and development according to the Linux version it has obtained, which is not a fatal problem except that the cost will increase.Everyone's future is free competition.
Simon made this decision, sniping more or Microsoft.
in recent years, in the face of the suppression of the vistor system or bright or dark, Microsoft is doomed to no longer become the world's largest market maker in history in 2000. Even though the Internet bubble has broken down, Microsoft is still competing with igritt's network business.
Simon just took up the hole.
In the future, there will still be a tripartite confrontation. In the United States, the westero system has taken up the quota. If Microsoft wants to intervene, it will be even more difficult.
Finally, the content.
Simon plans to be directly occupied by him in advance, and the game console named Xbox will be developed by Tinkerbell. In terms of content, it is certain that Denise and igritte will be the main players, and Tinkerbell will also participate in the future.
The game is a big cake, any one of the three families can't finish it, so they just go together.
Simon also has the meaning of raising poisonous insects.
It's better for our families to compete with each other than for outsiders to share the cake.
In order to connect the interests of the three parties more closely, the development of this game console will set up a separate subsidiary affiliated to tincobaier, with tincobaier holding 40% and the other two holding 30% respectively.
Although Ting Cobell is the main R & D force, there is no objection from C girl.
Simon explained this very clearly.
The mainframe business is not only difficult to make money, but also likely to make long-term investment, and take the initiative to subsidize in order to expand the market share, which is likely to lead to huge losses. Therefore, it is not the other two that take advantage of tincobail, but the three will bear the losses together in the future.
Of course, we can share the benefits of the Xbox platform while bearing the losses together.
That's why Simon let the three companies hold shares together.
Human relationship is never more stable than direct interest relationship.
If danielis and igritte do not hold shares and do not have to bear losses, even if Simon has been coordinating from them, in the long run, they will certainly be dissatisfied with tincobail who has invested alone.
My own development platform, why let you take advantage?
In the final analysis, it is still a kind of clear account. If we make clear the accounts in advance, there won't be too much trouble in the future.
After a two-hour meeting and discussions in all aspects, the "x plan" of westrow system, named as Xbox game console by Simon, was officially finalized. It is planned to be officially launched by the end of 1999 and before the millennium, with a research and development cycle of two years.
That's the deadline Simon set himself.
Even with the current resource strength of westero system, it's not a problem to catch up and build a console in a year. However, considering that the life cycle of each console will be very long, and it's not so easy to upgrade it. Considering all the problems caused by Microsoft's rush to build the first generation Xbox, Simon has made a more abundant opening plan The date of issue.
At the end of the meeting, I made an appointment for lunch with Chen Qing.
Simon left the conference room and went on to discuss some specific projects of the game department with Nancy Brill, who has always been taking care of the game business, and Larry Probst, who has been promoted from EA and is now the general director of danielis' entertainment game business.
In the morning, Simon has seen the game adaptation plan of "evocation 3: Blood Moon" given by the game department.
Ghost town, Ghost War, desperate escape, plus all kinds of settings that can be developed into game props in the film, it can be said that "evocation 3" is just tailor-made for the adaptation of the game. Therefore, before the release of the film, a research and development team of danielis Game Department saw the sample film in advance and began to prepare the plan.
As for whether to invest in the development or not, it depends on the specific market feedback of the film.
Now, "evocation 3" is even more popular than expected. Naturally, the development of the game needs to keep improving. Simon directly brings back the plan which is actually quite good, and asks Nancy and Larry to let the development team improve it again.
Say, with current hardware condition, make this kind of 3D stand-alone horror game, the effect certainly won't be very good. If you can put it 10 years later, or even 20 years later, to reach the film level image quality, the game will definitely scare people to death like a movie.
The problem is that you can think about it like this, but you can't really do it.
Ten years and twenty years later, there are still themes ten years and twenty years later.
What's more, just like a movie, a successful game depends on creativity, careful design, not image quality. Therefore, as long as you do your best under the current hardware conditions, players will buy it.
After talking about the adaptation of evocation 3, Simon talked about an online version of anti terrorist elite 3.0 to be released before Thanksgiving.
After walking into the restaurant building, Simon handed an idea that he had just written on A4 paper, saying: "in fact, there's another idea that I came up with when I read the review recently about the definition of zombie movie by evocation 3 and George Romero. It's also the idea of a horror game. This time it's zombie. The mode is adventure type, specific You talk about it yourself. It's called biochemical crisis. "Biochemical crisis was supposed to be launched in 1996, but now it's the end of 1997. It's time to check the review of evocation 3 at the weekend. When Simon saw Roger Albert using George Romero to define the zombie movie as evocation 3, he thought of this game and later movies.
My name is Alice!
OK.
I don't know why, Simon always thinks that this line is too slippery. It's almost the same as Schwarzenegger's "I'll be back". Now Mila Jovovich doesn't know where she is. In the future, she can give this opportunity to other vases around her.
Let's talk about games.
When he thought about it, Simon looked it up on the Internet, but he didn't find it. He asked girl a to compile a list of horror games from kapukong and other mainstream Japanese game manufacturers, but they didn't have it. Even sanshimasi didn't know where it was. Of course, you don't need to be polite.
Simon handed the setting to Probst. Walking on the other side, Nancy subconsciously looked into her head and found that there was a boss in the middle. She had to give up and asked, "what exactly is it?"
"Zombie game, are you interested?"
"I'm interested in every idea you have," Nancy said
Simon glanced at the small female executive who was still used to walking around in high heels, but only to her shoulder. He joked: "don't tell me, you've also thought about opening my brain to see what's inside?"
Nancy made no secret and nodded firmly: "more than once."
Simon said: "in fact, everything will start from that night ten years ago..."
Nancy listened, and even Larry Probst obviously pricked up his ears.
And then, there's no then.
Larry Probst quickly smiles and looks back at the A4 paper in his hand. Nancy reacts. Ten years ago, in 1987, someone has become famous. At the beginning, he teases himself and raises his hand to beat Simon.
In recent years, the small female executive is still single, which also causes some speculation in the circle between her and a big boss. However, the fact is that although there have been some minor ambiguities over the years, they have never gone any further.
Nancy Brill herself wanted to understand that it was because she was not a vase.
A guy will always have more patience and respect for a woman with ability. What's more, no matter what the rumors outside, Nancy knows that someone has never been a strong guy. Nancy is very satisfied with this, but occasionally, it is hard to avoid some loss that she is not willing to admit.
Can't you use it once?
Come to a restaurant in the restaurant building executive restaurant, Chen Qing has been waiting here.
Nancy, who thought she could have dinner together and talk about more topics, had to sit at the table with Larry Probst to explore the game plan of biochemical crisis just given by Simon.
The setting is not new.
Virus leak, city fall, find antidote, escape from city So, so.
Obviously, it's still a matter of filling in the content.
Nancy and Probst read the general setting, the main discussion is which team should be responsible for the project.
The creativity given by our boss, if done well, will be remembered directly by the big boss and have a bright future. However, it's a mess, like the upcoming "anti terrorism elite 3.0", which is actually an idea given by someone three years ago. However, because the first version of the finished product ended in a very bleak failure, the person in charge lost his job directly.
Very serious consequences.
The upcoming "anti terrorist elite 3.0" is the result that someone still insists on later. After the failure of the first generation, the "anti terrorist elite 2.0" at the beginning of last year finally got a good response. So this time, we directly produced the network war version, which is not only compatible with the single machine mode and LAN play of the first two versions, but also can carry out multi person war on the network platform In addition, the image quality and sound effect of the new version are upgraded again.
In addition, "anti terrorism elite 3.0" will still be sold in the single game mode, and danilisi entertainment will provide an online server battle platform.
Mainly because of the current hardware conditions.
Someone proposed to sell skin props and so on, which is not very realistic. After all, the quality of the picture, who can see the quality of the skin? As for the gun props, at this stage, in addition to the sound setting, the modeling will not be pleasant to the eye. It is unrealistic for players to spend money on it. What's more, it may affect the balance of the game.
So simply sell it directly as a stand-alone game.
As for the server cost, the game pricing process will certainly be taken into account. In addition, if this version of the game has a good response, maybe next year, at most the next year, we can launch "anti terrorist elite 4.0" with more playing methods and better picture quality. This is not a free update, we still need to buy it.
Therefore, the 3.0 server only needs to support for two years at most, and then it will be marginalized. After all, there is a better version, and players can't keep up with the image quality.In short, sellers are always smarter than buyers.

PS: yesterday, after finishing two chapters happily, I dare to look at the data of contribution fee, and then I was doused with a basin of cold water. As expected. In fact, I began to set a very low expectation in my heart, suggesting that I was almost OK. However, the total number of updates in February was twice that of the previous 240000 words, and the number of subscriptions was only a little more than the 120000 words in January. At that time, a fool laughed bitterly for a long time, and he was also laughing bitterly when writing this PS. In fact, I don't want to mention anti-theft. That's my eternal black history. The reason is procrastination. I don't want to make any more money. As long as I can write it out, I will never be anti-theft. In fact, I just want to say that the subscription ratio of this book is very low. As long as you come to subscribe to a few chapters occasionally, the data will be very good. Please. In addition, PS is added in seconds after updating. It should be able to be copied outside, but it won't cost money.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
November 3, Monday, new week.
Today is Seattle's fourth birthday.

The game is a big cake, any one of the three families can't finish it, so they just go together.
Simon also has the meaning of raising poisonous insects.
It's better for our families to compete with each other than for outsiders to share the cake.
In order to connect the interests of the three parties more closely, the development of this game console will set up a separate subsidiary affiliated to tincobaier, with tincobaier holding 40% and the other two holding 30% respectively.
Although Ting Cobell is the main R & D force, there is no objection from C girl.
Simon explained this very clearly.
The mainframe business is not only difficult to make money, but also likely to make long-term investment, and take the initiative to subsidize in order to expand the market share, which is likely to lead to huge losses. Therefore, it is not the other two that take advantage of tincobail, but the three will bear the losses together in the future.
Of course, we can share the benefits of the Xbox platform while bearing the losses together.
That's why Simon let the three companies hold shares together.
Human relationship is never more stable than direct interest relationship.
If danielis and igritte do not hold shares and do not have to bear losses, even if Simon has been coordinating from them, in the long run, they will certainly be dissatisfied with tincobail who has invested alone.
My own development platform, why let you take advantage?
In the final analysis, it is still a kind of clear account. If we make clear the accounts in advance, there won't be too much trouble in the future.
After a two-hour meeting and discussions in all aspects, the "x plan" of westrow system, named as Xbox game console by Simon, was officially finalized. It is planned to be officially launched by the end of 1999 and before the millennium, with a research and development cycle of two years.
That's the deadline Simon set himself.
Even with the current resource strength of westero system, it's not a problem to catch up and build a console in a year. However, considering that the life cycle of each console will be very long, and it's not so easy to upgrade it. Considering all the problems caused by Microsoft's rush to build the first generation Xbox, Simon has made a more abundant opening plan The date of issue.
At the end of the meeting, I made an appointment for lunch with Chen Qing.
Simon left the conference room and went on to discuss some specific projects of the game department with Nancy Brill, who has always been taking care of the game business, and Larry Probst, who has been promoted from EA and is now the general director of danielis' entertainment game business.
In the morning, Simon has seen the game adaptation plan of "evocation 3: Blood Moon" given by the game department.
Ghost town, Ghost War, desperate escape, plus all kinds of settings that can be developed into game props in the film, it can be said that "evocation 3" is just tailor-made for the adaptation of the game. Therefore, before the release of the film, a research and development team of danielis Game Department saw the sample film in advance and began to prepare the plan.
As for whether to invest in the development or not, it depends on the specific market feedback of the film.
Now, "evocation 3" is even more popular than expected. Naturally, the development of the game needs to keep improving. Simon directly brings back the plan which is actually quite good, and asks Nancy and Larry to let the development team improve it again.
Say, with current hardware condition, make this kind of 3D stand-alone horror game, the effect certainly won't be very good. If you can put it 10 years later, or even 20 years later, to reach the film level image quality, the game will definitely scare people to death like a movie.
The problem is that you can think about it like this, but you can't really do it.
Ten years and twenty years later, there are still themes ten years and twenty years later.
What's more, just like a movie, a successful game depends on creativity, careful design, not image quality. Therefore, as long as you do your best under the current hardware conditions, players will buy it.
After talking about the adaptation of evocation 3, Simon talked about an online version of anti terrorist elite 3.0 to be released before Thanksgiving.
After walking into the restaurant building, Simon handed an idea that he had just written on A4 paper, saying: "in fact, there's another idea that I came up with when I read the review recently about the definition of zombie movie by evocation 3 and George Romero. It's also the idea of a horror game. This time it's zombie. The mode is adventure type, specific You talk about it yourself. It's called biochemical crisis. "Biochemical crisis was supposed to be launched in 1996, but now it's the end of 1997. It's time to check the review of evocation 3 at the weekend. When Simon saw Roger Albert using George Romero to define the zombie movie as evocation 3, he thought of this game and later movies.
My name is Alice!
OK.
I don't know why, Simon always thinks that this line is too slippery. It's almost the same as Schwarzenegger's "I'll be back". Now Mila Jovovich doesn't know where she is. In the future, she can give this opportunity to other vases around her.
Let's talk about games.
When he thought about it, Simon looked it up on the Internet, but he didn't find it. He asked girl a to compile a list of horror games from kapukong and other mainstream Japanese game manufacturers, but they didn't have it. Even sanshimasi didn't know where it was. Of course, you don't need to be polite.
Simon handed the setting to Probst. Walking on the other side, Nancy subconsciously looked into her head and found that there was a boss in the middle. She had to give up and asked, "what exactly is it?"
"Zombie game, are you interested?"
"I'm interested in every idea you have," Nancy said
Simon glanced at the small female executive who was still used to walking around in high heels, but only to her shoulder. He joked: "don't tell me, you've also thought about opening my brain to see what's inside?"
Nancy made no secret and nodded firmly: "more than once."
Simon said: "in fact, everything will start from that night ten years ago..."
Nancy listened, and even Larry Probst obviously pricked up his ears.
And then, there's no then.
Larry Probst quickly smiles and looks back at the A4 paper in his hand. Nancy reacts. Ten years ago, in 1987, someone has become famous. At the beginning, he teases himself and raises his hand to beat Simon.
In recent years, the small female executive is still single, which also causes some speculation in the circle between her and a big boss. However, the fact is that although there have been some minor ambiguities over the years, they have never gone any further.
Nancy Brill herself wanted to understand that it was because she was not a vase.
A guy will always have more patience and respect for a woman with ability. What's more, no matter what the rumors outside, Nancy knows that someone has never been a strong guy. Nancy is very satisfied with this, but occasionally, it is hard to avoid some loss that she is not willing to admit.
Can't you use it once?
Come to a restaurant in the restaurant building executive restaurant, Chen Qing has been waiting here.
Nancy, who thought she could have dinner together and talk about more topics, had to sit at the table with Larry Probst to explore the game plan of biochemical crisis just given by Simon.
The setting is not new.
Virus leak, city fall, find antidote, escape from city So, so.
Obviously, it's still a matter of filling in the content.
Nancy and Probst read the general setting, the main discussion is which team should be responsible for the project.
The creativity given by our boss, if done well, will be remembered directly by the big boss and have a bright future. However, it's a mess, like the upcoming "anti terrorism elite 3.0", which is actually an idea given by someone three years ago. However, because the first version of the finished product ended in a very bleak failure, the person in charge lost his job directly.
Very serious consequences.
The upcoming "anti terrorist elite 3.0" is the result that someone still insists on later. After the failure of the first generation, the "anti terrorist elite 2.0" at the beginning of last year finally got a good response. So this time, we directly produced the network war version, which is not only compatible with the single machine mode and LAN play of the first two versions, but also can carry out multi person war on the network platform In addition, the image quality and sound effect of the new version are upgraded again.
In addition, "anti terrorism elite 3.0" will still be sold in the single game mode, and danilisi entertainment will provide an online server battle platform.
Mainly because of the current hardware conditions.
Someone proposed to sell skin props and so on, which is not very realistic. After all, the quality of the picture, who can see the quality of the skin? As for the gun props, at this stage, in addition to the sound setting, the modeling will not be pleasant to the eye. It is unrealistic for players to spend money on it. What's more, it may affect the balance of the game.
So simply sell it directly as a stand-alone game.
As for the server cost, the game pricing process will certainly be taken into account. In addition, if this version of the game has a good response, maybe next year, at most the next year, we can launch "anti terrorist elite 4.0" with more playing methods and better picture quality. This is not a free update, we still need to buy it.
Therefore, the 3.0 server only needs to support for two years at most, and then it will be marginalized. After all, there is a better version, and players can't keep up with the image quality.In short, sellers are always smarter than buyers.

PS: yesterday, after finishing two chapters happily, I dare to look at the data of contribution fee, and then I was doused with a basin of cold water. As expected. In fact, I began to set a very low expectation in my heart, suggesting that I was almost OK. However, the total number of updates in February was twice that of the previous 240000 words, and the number of subscriptions was only a little more than the 120000 words in January. At that time, a fool laughed bitterly for a long time, and he was also laughing bitterly when writing this PS. In fact, I don't want to mention anti-theft. That's my eternal black history. The reason is procrastination. I don't want to make any more money. As long as I can write it out, I will never be anti-theft. In fact, I just want to say that the subscription ratio of this book is very low. As long as you come to subscribe to a few chapters occasionally, the data will be very good. Please. In addition, PS is added in seconds after updating. It should be able to be copied outside, but it won't cost money.
November 3, Monday, new week. Today is Seattle's fourth birthday. Seattle and her younger brother Nicholas, who was born three days late, were registered under Janet's name as twins. Although the family is less and less concerned about these things, they still spend their birthdays together and usually choose one on the weekend. This time, it's different. November 3 is Monday, and November 6 is Thursday. It's not a weekend. However, just as the two children's eldest and second uncles came to North America to visit their relatives, they decided to hold a birthday party this evening. The two families delayed their return to Australia for one day. Simon is still at work today. When Simon arrived at the company, the first document he got was the box office data of North America for the past weekend. During the three-day weekend from October 31 to November 2, due to various breakthrough settings, the widely debated "evocation 3: Blood Moon" reached the top without any suspense. In the first weekend, with the large-scale opening of 3354 screens and the high reputation, "evocation 3" made 46.71 million US dollars at one stroke, higher than 46.13 million US dollars in the first seven days of "evocation 2". For the evocation movie universe series, Simon has been deliberately guiding the establishment of a perfect human ghost confrontation system, so as to form a certain model process, rather than just relying on accidents or mouth guns to defeat ghosts like many western horror movies. Remarkable achievements have been made in these years. "Evocation 3" is Simon's bolder attempt, adding a lot of new settings directly. Of course, as a girl can easily see, most of the settings, such as ghost hitting the wall, such as willpower coins, such as newborn baby tears, and so on, are actually adapted and evolved from various traditional Chinese Supernatural legends on the other side of the ocean. You can imagine the risks. If Western audiences don't buy it and think that many of the settings are nonsense, "evocation 3" may not be a horror movie, but a comedy. Fortunately, this situation has not happened. Even from the feedback from the media and the public in recent days, more people believe it. As a result, all kinds of ironic social news have come out. Simon is not surprised that "the witch Blair" was once believed to be a big hit. The elite in the United States is very elite, of course, but the middle and lower classes Whether now or in the future, too many facts have proved that these people are really not very smart. At the same time, all kinds of ghost costumes and other props in "evocation 3" have become popular during Halloween. In an e-mail to Simon, Amy Pascal said with regret that if he had known that, he should have let evocation 3 release a few days earlier. In this way, with the large-scale fermentation of public opinion, the surrounding areas will sell better. However, since evocation 3 was painted on October 31, the Hallows Eve, many members of the public have already bought their own halloween themed props in advance, so it is not easy to replace them temporarily. Although the series of "soul 3" has been sold in advance, and the sales volume is not bad, it lacks the popularity of the film, otherwise the sales volume will be better. The plan has never been able to keep up with the changes, which we can't do. After all, if it's released a week in advance, once the feedback is not so good, the next week may not get much of the holiday bonus of that week. There's always a trade-off. What's more, the high box office of 46.71 million US dollars in the three days of the first weekend also made people have no regrets. "Evocation 3", which ranks first in the list, has occupied too much market share, causing a serious impact on the box office of other new and old films. In the past three days, it has dropped 35% year-on-year, with revenue of US $7.82 million and cumulative box office of US $193.78 million. It is expected that after a full week, there will be a gap of at least US $4 million from the 200 million threshold. We can only expect to break through next week. However, "ghost record" is still good. It still ranks second in the sixth week of its release, which also shows the box office performance of other recent films. Third on the list, the ghost themed movie possessed by the dead, produced by Warner Bros., started a week ahead of schedule to avoid competition with evocation 3. As a result, it became a typical example of losing public praise and being unable to enjoy the bonus of the Halloween season. With a media rating of only 4.7 points and the reputation of variety magazine as "a bad imitation of the universe of the evocation movie", although Hollywood tycoon Al Pacino was invited to take part, after the box office of $14.93 million in the first week, even with the popularity support of Halloween in the next weekend, it still dropped 43% year-on-year and earned only $6.03 million. In ten days, the budget cost is $30 million, and the cumulative box office is only $20.96 million. Although it's not a failure. It's estimated that more than 30 million yuan will be sold locally, and some more will be sold overseas. Taking into account the surrounding channels, it will certainly recover the cost and achieve profits, but this is obviously far lower than Warner Brothers' expectation. You know, in the publicity stage of the film, Warner expressed his ambition to make a trilogy.I dare not mention the universe. Now, it is estimated that the local box office is not as much as the three-day weekend revenue of "evocation 3", so the trilogy will surely become a joke. The box office of the second and third place in the weekend list is less than 10 million, so you can imagine the rest. It's not worth mentioning. But Simon found one of the most interesting films. It's a science fiction film, produced by paramount, with a budget of $25 million, which started with evocation 3 last Friday. It's called gene code. Ethan Hawke, the star of love before dawn, and UMA Thurman, who was transformed from poison ivy to panther in wonder woman 2 by Simon. The three-day box office revenue of the film in the first weekend was only $3.17 million, a complete failure. However, the setting of the story is very interesting. The story tells of a future in which genes determine one's future. Ethan Hawke plays Vincent, who can only live to 30 years old due to genetic defects. In order to realize his space dream, he colludes with Jerome, another young man with excellent genes but half paralyzed due to an accident, to exchange identities in order to get the chance to become an astronaut. The following plot is not good enough, just look at this setting, look at this setting So again, it proves that Hollywood is a circle. People are like this, so are movies. After going through the box office in the past three days, Simon dealt with some daily documents. At 10 o'clock, it was a meeting jointly held by danielis, igritte and Tinkerbell. It was a combination of on-site participation and video connection. Some of the other two executives came from San Francisco in person, while Jeff Bezos of igritte and c-girl of tincobail participated through video communication. About the game. More accurately, it's the game console. Simon has been thinking about it for a long time, even for some years. Should the westero system make a game console in person? In the early days, they didn't have enough strength, so they didn't think too much. Now, the time, the place and the people are in harmony, and there is no shortage of anything. Whether we do it or not is just a matter of whether we do it or not. Simon finally decided to do it. So here's the problem. Why host? First of all, from the perspective of users, one is price, the other is experience. Whether it is now or in the future, if you want to support the most top-level games, personal computers need to invest more money in stacking top-level configurations. The customized and optimized game console can not only perfectly support all kinds of large-scale games, but the price will be much cheaper. As for experience, no matter now or in the future, the display effect of TV sets is far away from the computer screen. This is the biggest advantage of the game console. Secondly, from the perspective of game manufacturers. The game console itself is difficult to make profits, which was proved by Microsoft's huge losses for many years. However, through the host platform, Microsoft has become one of the leading game producers and distributors in the world. Later, the revenue scale of its game business was ranked among the top five in the world, leaving EA and Blizzard behind. It can be said that Microsoft is losing money on hardware, but the whole game business is not losing money. Not only Microsoft, but also Sony and Nintendo, which have their own game platforms, have long been among the top game manufacturers in the world in terms of related business revenue. It can be said that the top five game manufacturers in the world and three with host platforms directly account for three. This is enough to prove the power of the platform. Simon has always been interested in online games because of the game industry environment he used to be in. In the same global ranking, except for three console manufacturers, the other two are basically locked by online game manufacturers. Even if it was a stand-alone game, Simon once preferred PC games. However, after years of understanding, based on all kinds of information in his memory, he can also judge that console games will always occupy a large part of the global output value of more than 100 billion US dollars in the future. This is the reason why the westero system must be the host. And now is the right time. In terms of hardware, it's not a problem whether it's using Intel or AMD chips, or developing its own PowerPC architecture that has been determined to be marginalized after tincobail's acquisition of apple. On the operating system, Apple's technology foundation and core patents, together with the long-term accumulation of westero system in Linux system, can solve the problem. In a word, the first generation of Playstation launched by Sony three years ago adopted Linux system or a Linux version licensed from igritte. Westero system to develop game console, not surprisingly, the core of the operating system, will also be Linux. This is the conflict. Since it is imperative, of course, we can't take care of it. However, for Sony, because it is a permanent license for the relevant version, the westero system can no longer be recovered. The other side will carry out subsequent update research and development according to the Linux version it has obtained, which is not a fatal problem except that the cost will increase.Everyone's future is free competition. Simon made this decision, sniping more or Microsoft. in recent years, in the face of the suppression of the vistor system or bright or dark, Microsoft is doomed to no longer become the world's largest market maker in history in 2000. Even though the Internet bubble has broken down, Microsoft is still competing with igritt's network business. Simon just took up the hole. In the future, there will still be a tripartite confrontation. In the United States, the westero system has taken up the quota. If Microsoft wants to intervene, it will be even more difficult. Finally, the content. Simon plans to be directly occupied by him in advance, and the game console named Xbox will be developed by Tinkerbell. In terms of content, it is certain that Denise and igritte will be the main players, and Tinkerbell will also participate in the future. The game is a big cake, any one of the three families can't finish it, so they just go together. Simon also has the meaning of raising poisonous insects. It's better for our families to compete with each other than for outsiders to share the cake. In order to connect the interests of the three parties more closely, the development of this game console will set up a separate subsidiary affiliated to tincobaier, with tincobaier holding 40% and the other two holding 30% respectively.

The mainframe business is not only difficult to make money, but also likely to make long-term investment, and take the initiative to subsidize in order to expand the market share, which is likely to lead to huge losses. Therefore, it is not the other two that take advantage of tincobail, but the three will bear the losses together in the future. Of course, we can share the benefits of the Xbox platform while bearing the losses together. That's why Simon let the three companies hold shares together. Human relationship is never more stable than direct interest relationship. If danielis and igritte do not hold shares and do not have to bear losses, even if Simon has been coordinating from them, in the long run, they will certainly be dissatisfied with tincobail who has invested alone. My own development platform, why let you take advantage? In the final analysis, it is still a kind of clear account. If we make clear the accounts in advance, there won't be too much trouble in the future. After a two-hour meeting and discussions in all aspects, the "x plan" of westrow system, named as Xbox game console by Simon, was officially finalized.
