Near September, mm successively launched two good films, "zone 9" and "Time Traveler's wife". The box office is selling well and the beer is good, which makes mm always maintain the best heat. This is an excellent film company. At any time, excellent works are launched.

This also makes mark, who controls mm and Time Warner, more powerful.

If you don't think "the wonders of Benjamin Button" is enough "fantasy", perhaps Rachel McAdams and Eric Bana's love science fiction film "the wife of the time traveler" can meet this.

Claire has been waiting for Henry all her life. At the age of 6, she met him at the age of 36; When she got married, she was 23 and he was 31; She was 82 years old and he was only 43 years old... Henry could not control himself to fall into the past or future and meet Claire again and again in different time and space.

They know each other and love each other, but they are destined to be separated, but they are still the love of each other's lives! Can Henry, who shuttles through time, stay for Claire, or disappear in time and space that she can't touch? This is a story about love and family affection, life and death, determinism and free will. It is simple and beautiful, sad and sweet. Finally, it ends with a tearful ending. Many people are deeply moved.

The road to the big screen of this best-selling novel is not smooth. Several major directors have discussed directing with film companies, including Stephen Spielberg, David Finch and Keith Van Sant. However, Robert swink of air crisis finally took over the guide, almost setting the tone that time traveler's wife will be a set of mediocre works.

"Time Traveler's wife" won only 36% of the praise rate in rotten tomatoes, and Metacritic media scored 47 points. Variety said that although the plot is not convincing, it is a set of irresistible nonsense.

The Chicago Sun believes that although the plot setting is absurd, the warmth of the two actors is warm. Don't try to consider paradoxes, contradictions and logical fallacies.

The Boston Globe commented that the time traveler's wife does emphasize the value of life, and it is often beyond our control, but it is not as stupid as the film.

The Hollywood Reporter wrote that the director made everything develop very rapidly, so the leap of time and space can hide the leap of plot logic.

Empire magazine criticized that the film seemed to be too deliberately filled with film length and lost the elegance of the novel.

Although the media film reviews tend to be negative, considering that the wife of the time traveler, as a best-selling novel, has a large readership, and the theme itself is more attractive to female audiences (but isn't Eric Bana romantic?), the wife of the time traveler won $18.62 million in 2988 cinemas in the last three days of the week, ranking third, which is a good premiere, There is Rachel McAdams, the first sister of mm, who is now very popular. There are many people who want to know her sweet and intoxicating smile. If there is no accident, it can reach the box office of US $60 million, and its production cost is about 40 million, which can make a profit.

But as fans and fans of this novel, they are still very disappointed with the film. In fact, it can be made into a better work. "Remake" and "remake" are very popular in Hollywood now. I hope there will be better directors interested in this novel in more than ten years.

Mark has been talking about cooperation with representatives of Bloomberg, bertamans and other publishing groups. If there is no accident, this part of the industry stripped off by Time Warner will be sold to them.

The so-called strike of the Times Publishing Group was also cancelled due to the tough attitude of the parent company. Their compensation was linked to the company's stock price on the basis of the legal standard compensation. The sharp decline in shares meant a reduction in their income.

The management led by mark is Wang Ba, who is determined to strip this part of the industry. The protest can not make the greedy capitalists change their mind. They can only retreat and ask for the second place, hoping that the compensation will be richer.

At this time, it is not surprising that someone has joined the negotiating ranks. There are many people who want to hold the time publishing group in their arms. It is strange that who is his buyer?

It's David Philo of Yahoo.

This is god horse situation? Mark and Barney looked at each other.

They prepared a professional team and made more than ten sets of plans. As soon as they got the money, they immediately forced Yahu to spit out aristoba's shares. Instead of getting the money, one of the main owners came to the door. Mark and David were extremely surprised. Mark asked, "how many bodyguards did he bring." mark had a ghost in his heart and was afraid that the other party would come to the door.

Louise said, "Mr. big mouth Philo visited after a formal appointment."

Mark said, "what's his intention?"

Louis said: "he didn't disclose it himself, but when I called his office to confirm, his assistant revealed that they were interested in our industry?"

Outside, there are dark clouds and no sunshine. A storm is coming. Now suddenly, the dark clouds disperse and the sun comes out. It's a good day for thousands of miles.

Mark said, "Louise, well done! It's no problem how expensive it is to choose a sports car you like." mark ignored Louise's thanks and said to Barry, "this time I must tear a piece of fat off Yahoo."

Barry also nodded that he was thinking about his prey and the other party jumped into the well. It's a good character, I don't have to say.

David Philo is another founder of Yahoo besides Yang Zhiyuan. Now only the two of them have the honorary title of Yahoo chief. Ferrero has excellent professional technology. The fast and easy-to-use global online information navigation platform with good functional expansibility created by Ferrero for Yahoo can be rated as the first-class and the most popular online guide for users.

In 1990, Yang Zhiyuan entered Stanford University not far from home with excellent results. The Electrical Engineering Department of the university is an integral part of the myth of Silicon Valley. He took electrical engineering as an elective course and completed his bachelor's and master's degrees in only four years.

When he graduated, he felt that he was not mature enough, so he stayed in school to engage in research work. It happened that David Philo also stayed in school for research. Their encounter and acquaintance are undoubtedly the key factors for Yahoo's success.

The two founders Yang Zhiyuan and Philo are old acquaintances. Philo graduated from Tulane University in 1988 and once served as a teaching assistant to coach Yang Zhiyuan. Yang Zhiyuan, who has always taken "a", has only got "B" in the pen of Philo's judge. Yang Zhiyuan still complains about this. Later, they attended classes in the same class and cooperated in homework. Taking this as the starting point, the two became the best partners.

Feronne shows and likes to meditate, while Yang Zhiyuan is active and is the leader of the community. Feronne is good at sorting out materials on the screen and has a feeling of "ruling the world as long as he is in front of the terminal". Philo's lab is like a place ravaged by a storm. Yang Zhiyuan's residence is relatively clean, but there is no plan for the operation of computers. Their lab is adjacent. Soon, they signed up for Japan. Both became foreigners there, and their friendship grew day by day.

At that time, there were many competitors on the Internet, such as WebCrawler, Lycos, worm, Infoseek, etc. these websites were automatically searched by software. Although they had a wide range, they were not accurate, while Yahoo was purely handmade, so the search was accurate and more practical. In fact, by the end of 1994, Yahoo had become the leader of search engine. At this time, Netscape had released the pilot version of navigator browser and launched the first website supported by advertising, and Internet business opportunities appeared.

In the first half of 1995, their network had the highest Internet access rate in the world. The two contacted several venture capital companies. Finally, the Sequoia owned American fir knows heroes with insight. The company has invested in apple, Google, Intel, Cisco and other companies, and now they have added Yahoo to their impressive performance.

So far, Michael Moritz of Sequoia has recalled his visit to the "office" in January 1995 and talked with relish: "It's really a mess there. Pizza boxes are thrown all over the floor, golf clubs are casually placed in the corner, and the telephone is thrown on the floor. There are no chairs in the whole room. The room is dark. I think Yang Zhiyuan and Philo can't tell the difference between day and night."

However, Moritz was not scared away. Sequoia invested nearly US $2 million in Yahoo. It was the first venture capital investor and the only venture capital investor of Yahoo. Later, it brought them hundreds of times of return for their investment, which was one of several wonderful investments of Sequoia Capital.

Yang Zhiyuan and David Ferrero have become the top tycoons, but David Ferrero likes to command behind the scenes, far less famous than Yang Zhiyuan, but he is not low in terms of influence. Yahoo's market value was nearly 500 billion at one time. What's the concept? The market value of the four major media in beimi is also this market value. Of course, Yahoo now is less than one tenth of its peak, but David Ferrero Luo is still an important rich man.

The two sides met in the reception room. Barry, the president of great time warner, made the first company. Now Richard plans to retire, resign as CEO first and Barry will take over. He himself will serve as the chairman of the board, and will resign within a year and finally retain the position of director.

The two sides talked to each other for a long time and said some polite words. Mark also opened a Lafite in 82. Mark said: "I like Lafite for red wine. In 82, there was plenty of rain in southern France, and the red wine was especially mellow and strong. It is the best in the wine. It is difficult to get 10000 dollars each."

Philo was awed. He didn't know anything about red wine. He nodded again and again after listening to mark.

Barry laughed to himself. Mark knows nothing about red wine. He can't tell the difference between Lafite and his own winery. Now he just searches some online information to blow, bluffing the guy who doesn't know anything.
