American Legendary Life

Chapter 122: Let Playboy build the plane

When the background music sounded, the theater fell into silence.

Until Li Zitao stood up to face Hughes and clapped his hands with a smile, the awakened people finally gave thunderous applause.

At the moment of applause, Hughes's tight palm was finally released.

He doesn't care about money, but he cares about success or failure, whether his efforts are recognized.

Tonight, he succeeded.

"An unprecedented big production, Howard Hughes opened a new era in Hollywood..." Hollywood headlines.

"Videos that must not be missed this year..." Variety magazine.

"It's unique. With an investment of 4 million dollars, people can see what the movie should look like, a magnificent masterpiece..." Pioneer Express.

The premiere message was broadcasted to all parts of the country via radio, and exaggerated adjectives were repeatedly used in this costly film.

The factory added some printed newspapers with relevant information and shipped them to cities in batches.

The protagonist who triggered all of this, but at the moment, he shut himself in the viewing room, preparing to edit again some minor flaws in the film.

"Hughes." The door was pushed open, and the assistant whispered.

"Wait... Volume 15, yes, too much noise, I heard a cough, damn, get it out... Volume 17, when the plane crashed..."

"Sorry, he always strives for perfection." The assistant turned back apologetically, next to him were Li Zitao and Eva.

"Genius is always different." Li Zitao smiled.

"Yes." The assistant nodded in agreement.

"Okay, what's the matter?" After telling things to go, Hughes was finally free.

"Hughes, Mr. Li wants to talk to you." The assistant turned sideways to expose Li Zitao and Jiabao in his sight.

"Sorry, Charlie..." Hughes grinned his head and smiled: "It's too messy today."

"It doesn't matter, so can we talk now? It only takes a few minutes." Li Zitao smiled politely.

"Of course." Hughes asked the two to come in, and the assistant closed the door.

"Charlie, what's the matter? Are you interested in this film, but I remember DreamWorks doesn't seem to have its own cinema line." Hughes joked across the back of the chair.

"No, I want to talk to you about the plane." Li Zitao made his intention clear.

"Oh, you want to build a plane?" Hughes' eyes lit up.

"I don't think, I'm already doing it." After receiving the information from Eva, Li Zitao stirred up Hughes.

"I heard that you want to be the best pilot in the world. Are you interested in being together?"

"You also like flying?"

"No, I don't like flying, but I like excitement, I like to set records, I like to hear people screaming for me, crazy screaming..."

"Skunk Studio currently has 49 designers and experts in the aviation field. My goal is to build the fastest aircraft and the largest aircraft."

When he heard ‘fastest’ and ‘largest’, Hughes was clearly interested.

This coincides with the idea in his mind, the fastest, the biggest, is like moving a cruise ship to the sky... This is really cool.

"How much money are you going to invest?" Hughes leaned forward and asked hotly.

Raising a finger, Li Zitao whispered: "Infinite."

"Cool, Charlie, I like this number, unlimited... Haha..." Hughes's loud laughter echoed inside the house.

"Now it's your turn. What do you want?" Li Zitao leaned back and asked like he was sitting on the Diaoyutai.

"30% of the shares, I can follow..." Hughes opened the file, "Skunk, I like the name, I can buy the corresponding shares according to its market price."

"10%." Li Zitao smiled.

"28 percent." Hughes returned the document to Ava.

"12 percent."

"..." Hughes was speechless. He hated bargaining like a department store. "15%, but I want 49% of the voting rights."

"Impossible." Li Zitao said with a straight waist: "I can give you the decision on the direction of the project's research and development, and 49% of the voting power is impossible."

People have feelings, if Hughes has 49% of the voting power, then get along with the skunk designers.

If one day the two conflicted because of disagreements, where would the skunk stand?

Li Zitao didn't want to work hard to raise the skunk, and then watched them run away one by one.

"I have all the power to make decisions about research and development? Including funding approval?" Hughes was another big mouth open.

"What do you think?" Li Zitao rolled his eyes and gave him a hard glance.

"Okay! 15% of the shares, the right to decide the direction of research and development, not less than 4 million US dollars of research and development funds every year." Hughes retreated.

"The deal." Li Zitao doesn't care how much money he invests. He just wants to own his big plane quickly, comfortably and safely.

The luxurious Airbus with suites, entertainment facilities, bar counter, surf bath, 5X5 large round bed, the sound of the ‘buzzing’ machine is about to drive him crazy.

He agreed to sign a contract at the Roosevelt Hotel at noon tomorrow, and Li Zitao left.

"BOSS, why did you agree to his condition?" Ava followed Li Zitao on the street, and the car slowly followed behind.

There were cheers everywhere, and people rushed to tell each other, telling the grandness of "Hell's Angel", and telling about the persistence and greatness of Howard Hughes.

It's as if you have your own credit for success.

"I think the conditions I gave him are too good?" Li Zitao smiled.

"Yes." Ava admitted that she not only felt that Li Zitao's condition was too good, but also thought she was too polite to him.

It is a pity that Eva does not understand Chinese, otherwise she will understand what is Corporal Lixian.

She admits that "Hell Angel" is about to achieve unprecedented success, it may even change Hollywood's investment scale and filming structure.

But what about that?

Compared with Li Zitao, a person who is worth only tens of millions of yuan, even if he adds his parents to his estate, but the value of tens of millions of people, for him is really no different from ordinary people.

With Eva's understanding of Li Zitao, he can be rushed to the factory in person, just to see the chief designer. This kind of thing is unique.

In other words, this company named ‘Aerospace’ has an important position in Li Zitao’s mind, at least for him.

Since this is the case, why should outsiders be involved, they have enough designers, mechanical engineers, huge reserves of funds, and all-round support.

Moreover, a brother who made a movie really understands how to build an airplane?

If he took a messy command of investment, the money would be lost.

"Ava, what do you think of the think tank?" Li Zitao asked suddenly.

"Perfect management structure can effectively integrate resources and provide efficient solutions." Ava said with admiration.

"When I first saw Ben, he was still a stock manager." Thinking of seeing Ben for the first time, Li Zitao did not expect that he would become his chief think tank.

"You mean that Hughes has the potential to become a book." Ava obviously didn't believe it.

"No, he can't be the one like Ben, but no one can be him either. Believe my vision, he will bring me cheers and praise...and miracles."

Li Zitao said with a smile, my footsteps moved forward briskly.

If you want to gain something, you have to pay. In the past six months, the most important thing Li Zitao learned is to know how to share, as well as humility and respect under the opponent.

genius? Pride?

It does not matter, as long as it can create benefits for me, these can be tolerated.

Li Zitao maintains the salty taste that salted fish should have, unaware of his current success, he has to put on shelves and fight together.

To stay successful, he needs to attract more talents to join his team.

This was his good fortune, Disney was his prophet, and now Hughes is the same.

Successful people will eventually succeed, they have qualities that ordinary people do not have, maybe no one, even they themselves do not understand what it is.

With the finishing touch, these people themselves are the soul.

What is the apple without Steve Jobs, and what is the apple with him?

Without Li Jianxi, there will be no Samsung. Some people will say that he is catching up with the good times. He is supported by the government. He kidnapped the state-owned people.

So why was he the only Samsung in the contemporary era, why could he get government support, and why could he kidnap state-owned people?

See, you can say a lot of truth, but you can’t find the thread~www.wuxiaspot.com~ It’s like people in the past always said that if I can catch up with the 80s, I can become rich first. The batch of people.

and then?

The Internet age is here, have they succeeded?

Then the millennials will say that if I can catch up with the early days of the Internet, I can become a horse.

and after!

The smart age is here, how many Zacks?

Without a prophet or a consciousness, they can only become themselves even in the age of turmoil.

If you insist on owing all this to the times, then they are the darlings of the times, the illegitimate children of the goddess of destiny.

Now that Li Zitao has the opportunity to turn these gangsters into his own wage earners, embezzling the achievements and banknotes that should belong to the gangsters, isn't it beautiful? Any other complaints?

"I can't believe it, you would encourage him to build an airplane, God!" When Jiabao knew what he had just done, even she felt ridiculous.

Howard Hughes, to build a plane?

Wait, let me see if it’s April Fool’s Day today?

"Three dreams, don't you know?" Li Zitao lay dead on the sofa.

"Yes, being a baseball player, making a movie, the best pilot, but what does this have to do with making airplanes?" Do you have to make airplanes if you fly them?

Isn’t it necessary to be able to cook for meals, to build cars when driving, and to build ships?

Then the question is coming.

Why do men sow the seeds of life but are not responsible for nourishment?

"Others may not be, but Hughes, yes." Li Zitao said with certainty: "He knows more about aircraft than most designers."

"Because that is his dream, what he loves, comes from the heart."

Seeing Li Zitao's so serious expression, Jiabao conceded defeat: "Just be happy."
