America's Big Hero

He couldn't imagine what those people would send in the mail.

"You know comics well, so why is DC dying now?" Sean looked at Bunian Rupert with drooping eyebrows.

Bunian Rupert: "..."

He blushed when he said this, and he didn't know how to refute it at all, but this was due to the general environment!

The cost of labor and printing is getting higher and higher, the price of comics is also rising, and the TV media is becoming more and more developed. Many people prefer to watch animations, which are far more expressive than comics themselves.

"I'm a capitalist. What I want to hear is not the bullshit process and hard work, but the result, understand?" Sean said with a cold face, and Bunyan Rupert, who was overwhelmed by the superior, was a little out of breath.

"Since it's going downhill, it means that your original set is no longer good, and you can't attract people anymore!"

"The style of manga needs to be changed to a certain extent, to re-adapt to the market, to be more handsome and cool. Look at the pop music and movie worlds. Now everyone likes handsome guys and beautiful women."

"Appearance is justice, and a stinking superhero is not as attractive as a beautiful and sexy villain!"

"Try, try a new path, or follow the current path and wait for death!" Sean snorted, "If you can do it, just tell me the result."

"Yes!" Bunyan Rupert said quickly. When it came to work, he immediately changed his attitude. If he is not in DC, should he go to Marvel to help his old enemy?

"Just understand!" Sean nodded in satisfaction, "Prepare as I said."

After sending Bunian Rupert away, Sean brought Katzenberg back.

"Next year's shooting plan, your two cartoons, "Basic Instinct 2" and "Home Alone" series, in addition, relying on your animation production department, prepare to shoot DC's superhero cartoons, and sell them to It would be too wasteful to use such a good technology and team to make animated films.”

"What to shoot, please communicate with Bunyan Rupert here. No adaptation is required. Try your best to restore comics, such as Batman. The picture should be handsome and cool."

"In the future, the TV market will develop faster and faster. Where the market is, we must take a bite."

"Okay, I understand." Katzenberg agreed without hesitation, and the animation film production team was used to produce animation. Technically, it was overqualified, and the company had sufficient funds, so there was no problem.

"The release of Thelma & Louise, summer?" Katzenberg asked.

"Let's go a little earlier in the summer vacation. It's not a big production. It's hard to win those blockbusters." Sean thought for a while and said, "You don't have to worry too much about the publicity issue. I'll give New Century an order later. A month before the release was dedicated to hype about women's oppression."

"Collect a lot of things about women's oppression across the country, pull them out and hype them up, stir up emotions, and then fund feminist organizations to come out, and when the time comes to take advantage of the popularity of the show, you will definitely get a good film and a good box office. .”

Hearing what Sean said, Katzenberg felt a little tight in his body, stuck out his tongue and licked the corner of his mouth, but he didn't express any objection.

This method of publicity is definitely more effective than ordinary publicity.

It's all true, and there's no falsification, well, there's no problem, Katzenberg said to himself in his heart.

"In addition, let out the news that DC superheroes can be used as game characters, and interesting game companies can come and get in touch."

"In the end, let the editorial department publish the script about Catwoman. I don't want one edition, but everyone publishes one. In the end, we will consider it comprehensively."

At this point, Sean's affairs in Los Angeles are almost done.

After resting for another two days, a few girls came over to have some fun, before Sean boarded the plane and left.

……

"Mr. Sean, this way please."

"This is Prince Chun's Mansion, a large-scale palace in the Qing Dynasty. It used to be the mansion of Nalan Pearl and Yongzheng. In 1872, Prince Chun Yixuan became the owner of the house. The last emperor Puyi was born here."

"Later, Ms. Song XX moved in in 63 and lived there for 19 years. After Ms. 82 passed away, this place became her former residence and a cultural protection unit, open to the public."

Prince Chun’s Mansion and Garden are located at No. 44 and No. 46, Houhai Beiyan, XC District. The mansion faces south and covers an area of ​​nearly 4 square meters. Covered buildings, ancestral halls, Buddhist halls, etc. To the west of the mansion is a garden with verdant pines and cypresses and green grass. A bay of clear water flows through the garden. Pavilions and pavilions are distributed along the lake. A peaceful and quiet garden is formed in the center.

Xiao En came to Yanjing again. As an old friend of the Chinese people, it is not too much to buy a mansion in Yanjing city to settle down now, right?

Not too much!

So with today's scene, with the approval of the above, the staff took Xiao En to stroll around the big mansions in Yanjing City.

Originally, Xiao En wanted to buy Prince Gong's Mansion, Prince Yong's Mansion (Longhe Temple), Prince Qing's Mansion, Prince Li's Mansion, Prince Zheng's Mansion, Prince Chun's Mansion, Prince Su's Mansion, and Prince Rui's Mansion.

Of course, it’s not because Yanjing housing prices are cheap at this time, the main reason is that I like Chinese culture, I like it, I like it very much!

But the above did not agree...

Sean feels very sorry!

Xiao En had no choice but to settle for the next best thing. After some on-the-spot investigation and discussion, he finally set his target on Prince Jin's Mansion.

More than 4 square meters, small is a little small, let's make do with it! !

Song XX can live, and I, Sean, can live too!

After just looking around, Sean fell in love with him.

Xicheng, Houhai, a garden of 4 square meters, good guy, Xiao En feels dreamy. After 40 years, even if he loses his other businesses, there is only such a garden left.

It was confiscated... cough cough cough.

In 87, at this time, the house price was so low that we didn't even see it.

Sean fell in love with Prince Chun's Mansion after seeing it. The rest is the price. How much is the price per square meter?

According to the current housing prices in Yanjing, even if it is commercial real estate, the price per square meter will not be 500 yuan.

However, considering that Sean is an American capitalist, not a people's entrepreneur, he must need more money.

Doubled, doubled again, doubled again...the amount was increased layer by layer, and when it was finally delivered to Xiao En, Mr. Li who was sitting in front of him was a little embarrassed.

Sean asked for 1000 dollars per square meter!

It is not allowed to be demolished and rebuilt, and must be modified on the basis of maintaining the original style.

A mansion sold for 4000 million US dollars, Mr. Li felt embarrassed.

Even with the 10 billion cash sent by Sean last time, the treasury only has 30 billion foreign exchange reserves.

Sean looked down at the numbers on it, wanting to laugh, but he couldn't hold it in after all, it's so fucking cheap, dare you believe it!

"Mr. Xiao En, if you think it's expensive..."

"No, we are all friends!" Xiao En signed without saying a word, "If other palaces can be sold, I really don't mind buying a few more sets."

Seeing Xiao En's straightforwardness, Mr. Li blinked his eyes. Could it be that the sale is cheap?

I can't!

The house price was increased after many rounds of negotiations. In the end, everyone felt that it was too much and too bullying.

A higher price than this?

Capitalists are not so crazy!

That must be the reactionaries... dead, dead!

After winning Prince Chun's Mansion, Xiao En seemed to have got a big toy. He was very happy. He communicated with the government and invited the best ancient building restoration team in China to help renovate the Palace.

This is a big project. It needs to excavate the sewer system, power and network system, and install electrical appliances without being obtrusive or damaging the original structure.

The walls need to be repainted and painted, the murals need to be maintained, the garden needs to be refurbished, and the pond needs to be changed. It's too much work.

The original furniture needs to be refurbished, but many antiques, porcelain, calligraphy and paintings, etc. are gone, and Sean has to buy them again.

The advantage is that there are experts following, so you are not afraid of being confused.

The downside is that most of the antiques on the market are illegal...

Let the experts sent by the government see the objects that should have been preserved in museums in various places in the market, it is true, it is a bit ugly.

Sean didn't care about the things behind it.

He just needs to get good things.

In order to show off, Xiao En also called Le Huizhen and Akina Nakamori to Yanjing to open their eyes.

Well, literally.

Sean has been tossing with enthusiasm for half a month, until the 36 on the east side are ready.

On the freighter, Sean transferred an armed helicopter from the umbrella side. Sea Cobra, fully armed, specially built a temporary helicopter platform on the freighter.

Not dispatching the battleship is tantamount to telling others that there is a problem with the ship.

Helicopters are better for concealment. If a problem cannot be solved by an armed helicopter, it will definitely encounter a fleet of another country.

……

I don't know if it's bad luck or retribution. This freighter carrying 36 missiles, 12 launch vehicles, a large amount of equipment and more than 500 officers and soldiers encountered pirates just after passing Natuna Island.

The speedboat was scurrying across the sea, and a group of ragged guys could be seen waving guns in their hands and yelling. Although they couldn't understand what they were yelling along the sea breeze, they were still quite bluffing.

Well, more than 500 officers and soldiers had very strange expressions after learning that they encountered pirates. They frowned and pondered, what kind of expressions would they have when they saw more than 500 fully armed soldiers after the pirates boarded the ship...

It must be very exciting!

Just curious!

After all, there was no answer. Under the astonished eyes of several speedboats, an armed helicopter rose into the sky, cut sideways across the sea and rushed towards them.

At this moment, the pirates were in a broken mood.

Doing this business is like licking blood with a knife head. It looks like a merchant ship. Who knows who is on it.

No hellfire or rockets were used, the machine gun was turned on, and "chug chug..." across the sea, the sea water splashed more than 2 meters high, and a speedboat was directly torn to pieces.

U-turn, continue, the last two speedboats, the pirates jumped directly into the sea.

On the vast sea, jumping into the sea was lucky and still alive, but he was directly beaten to pieces on the boat!

After passing through Malacca, the rest is smooth sailing.

According to normal history, the news had actually been leaked when the missiles were delivered to Saudi Arabia.

The United States dispatched an aircraft carrier fleet to follow up. The planes followed in the sky, and the warships surrounded it below.

The representatives of the East on board were ready to die together.

But in the end, the U.S. did not really force the forced inspection to stop.

As for hiding something after arriving at the port, it is all a show. How can something more than 20 meters long be transported out?

It was very tense afterwards. At one point, they had to withdraw diplomats from each other, and Saudi Arabia had to stop selling oil to the United States.

In the end, in order to avoid a new oil crisis and to prevent the situation in the Middle East from deteriorating further, allowing the Soviet side to take the opportunity to intervene in the Saudi political situation, the US side Reagan still compromised.

The petrodollar still needs the support of the big dogs in the Middle East, and the leading brother, King Fahd, still has a bit of confidence.

Of course, because Sean was involved this time, it wasn't so stiff in the end.

By the way, the aircraft carrier fleet that surrounded the transport ships performed escort operations in the Persian Gulf, and now this operation has become an umbrella.

So as soon as the transport ship entered the Persian Gulf, the umbrella fleet escorted it.

Suddenly mobilizing the crowd, it was still a freighter without the American flag, which immediately attracted the attention of YL people.

YL's plane quickly caught up, and behind them was the battleship group.

The broadcast directly shouted to stop the cargo ship and they wanted to check.

All the weapon systems on the battleship under the umbrella entered the standby state, and they pretended not to hear it.

Obviously, the battleship is guarding against the YL people.

As for why, it must be that the freighter was loaded with something that would pose a major threat to YL, otherwise it would never be so strict!

Sean is very skeptical, whether the US aircraft carrier fleet was monitoring and inspecting or protecting...

The closer to the Saudi side, the more impatient the YL military was. Half an hour later, the F-14 fighter jets flew over the umbrella battleship group.

"What should I do?" Robert looked at Sean, and there was another communication request to access.

"Ignore them!" Xiao En snorted, "It's not fucking YL, it's none of their business, I really think I'm a big country!"

This silent attitude completely made YL people anxious!

After circling a circle, the two armed helicopters rushed straight towards the front of the fleet.

Of course, even if Xiao En agrees to access the communication, it is impossible for the other party to come up and check, and the final result will not make any difference.

The two armed helicopters aimed at the direction of the battleship and fired "chug chug", drawing two water walls on the sea surface in an attempt to force the warship to stop.

Sean ignored it at all and ordered to continue charging.

If you have the ability, you can really fucking fire, and see who is afraid of whom!

Seriously speaking, when two great powers at sea meet, they compete for courage, so they collide with each other, and whoever hides is the grandson.

In 97, the two warships Dongying and Dongying met on the sea in the South China Sea.
