In the evening, in a mansion on the upper east side of New York.
Jeff Bezos was sitting on the sofa with a Motorola sample machine in his hand.
Although Motorola is slightly behind Nokia in the research and development of 2G mobile phones, as the leader of the mobile phone industry, it quickly caught up with Nokia with its deep technology accumulation.
Bezos took out his Nokia phone and compared it with Motorola.
Both phones are full keyboards, which support Internet access, SMS, fax and other functions.
If you have to pick out the difference, in addition to the brand, the reading program in the mobile phone is probably different.
Bezos recalled that he once met Wang Jian downstairs in Random House.
At that time, he was just a fledgling best seller.
But who would have thought that only in the past half a year, the Asian boy's private website has grown to such a stage.
In terms of mode, eBay and Amazon are not only subverters of traditional business, but also competitors.
In terms of publishing, even the physical bookstore and Amazon's online bookstore model have been subverted.
A few days ago, a chief editor in charge of popular literature complained to himself: "in the second half of 1995, the sales volume of story books was the worst in the past ten years."
Bezos almost couldn't help it. At that time, he wanted to say to him, "you have to look on the bright side. Maybe this is the best half year of sales in the next ten years?"
While Bezos was trying to compare two different reading programs, his wife, McKenzie Bezos, came to him.
"Jeff, go and change into formal clothes. There will be people in the community coming to our house today."
Bezos, who just got the Upper East Side Residence qualification, sighed helplessly: "these old money are really troublesome."
More than ten minutes later, neighbors arrived one after another.
The maids in the family also put a big dinner on the table.
"Ha, Jeff, welcome to the best community in America." Neighbor handed a bottle of red wine to Bezos, "this community, also has network elite to move in finally."
"Thank you." Bezos politely said, "it's not a network elite. Amazon is still a long way from going public."
"Don't be modest. Your website is great. It's very convenient to find some classic books." Another man said sincerely.
Unexpectedly, a 13 - or 4-year-old boy said with disdain, "what's the age of watching Uncle Tom's cabin?"
This immediately aroused the collective agreement of the rebellious youths: "that is," the extreme way of heaven and evil "," abnormal creatures "is really good-looking."
The hostess of the neighbor's house feels very embarrassed.
While apologizing to Mackenzie, she scolded the boys: "can't you see some classics? Look at your sister. She's been holding little women in her hand
"She lied to you! My sister used the printer to print out the novel. "Little woman" is just a book cover. In fact, it's "the harem? The little daughter of the paulins"! "
"What nonsense!" The eldest daughter, who was shot lying down, quickly reprimanded her younger brother. She attached herself to the boy and whispered, "don't talk about it. I'll tell you later. I met Wang Jian in the public welfare activities a few days ago."
The Bezos quietly looked at each other.
To ease the atmosphere, McKenzie said, "it's getting late. Let's have dinner."
As a result, the embarrassed adults sat on their chairs one after another and directly exposed the topic just now.
At the dinner table, everyone tried to compliment each other.
"Your business has a good future" and "your hospital must be very profitable"...
then, men begin to talk about politics.
Women, on the other hand, talk about what's new in luxury stores.
But because of different political views, two neighbors belonging to donkey elephant had some quarrels.
As the host of Bezos, hastened to make a comeback, "don't talk about politics, there's a Knicks game tonight."
Well, although the Knicks are bad, they are still very popular in New York.
The men took advantage of the situation and sat down on the sofa together, ready to watch the basketball game.
Bezos turns on the TV and wants to switch the channel to ESPN.
But at this time, a female neighbor called out, "was that CBS just now? Can you change it back first? "
Although at home, men may not be able to pay attention.
But in front of everyone, they are still very gentlemanly to tune the channel to CBS.
"Welcome to next week.
Since prison break was broadcast, its wonderful plot and tense atmosphere have attracted a large number of audiences.
So, what's the end of it? Can the woman escape from prison and reunite with her boyfriend?
Friendly tips: this first love boyfriend is played by Wang Jian, one of the screenwriters, producer and best-selling writer of the play. ""Wang Jian?" The eldest daughter's eyes brightened and immediately left the dining table and stood behind the sofa.
But the housewives were silent for a while, and finally someone said, "this is the end?"
"I don't know what the prison break producers think. They haven't released the video yet." A housewife complained, "that handsome asian boy looks very smart?"
"Well, Nora, I remember your father is one of the shareholders of CBS. Can we borrow the original and record it?"
"It's just a small shareholder, with only one vote on the board." Nora is very "modest": "however, it should not be a problem to lend out the original tape of a TV play."
"At that time, lend me a copy. I want to see it from beginning to end." Housewives have said: "I once missed a whole episode because of the parents' meeting."
McKenzie Bezos looked at the neighbors, "is this prison break really that good?"
"Haven't you seen it?" The housewives looked at Mackenzie in surprise. "After a while, you come to my house. Let's see it from beginning to end."
When housewives complain that the prison break video is not yet on sale, the producers are also trying.
At the moment, Wang Jian is sitting in his apartment, answering Tom's call from Netflix headquarters.
"Netflix will make 10000 videos for rent, and because it is not involved in the production, the profit share of prison break will be 2:8."
"Starting from prison break: from special forces to warden, because of his participation in the production, the revenue from the videotape became fifty-five."
"Well, I see." While Wang Jian agreed, he watched the text message Naomi sent him.
"Wang, have a chance to have a cup of coffee?"
He turned off his cell phone and said to Tom, "just leave your subordinates there and come back as soon as possible."
"There's going to be an audition for prison break special forces tomorrow."
