Chapter 27 Rumors and the Blair Witch



Chapter 27 Rumors and the Blair Witch
January sixteenth.

The ESPN column first broke the news, and a rumor about the Warriors' trade quickly spread in the league.

"According to Warriors insiders, Latwell Sprewell, who was charged with attacking PJ Carlesimo last season, is headed to New York City in the most successful trade the Warriors' young owner has ever made. , It is not difficult for us to see his firm resistance to problem players, even if this transaction may be just a rumor, but we have seen Bruce Young's actions on the transaction."

As soon as this report came out, the powerful New York media, including the New York Times, began to criticize the Knicks!
"If this news is true, we will get a "star" player who takes pleasure in beating the coach. Even if he was an All-Star, it can't change his essence!"

Bruce looked at the reports of the major media with a smile. Although the deal was close to being concluded, the only difference was Stern's approval, but now the local media, mainly the New York Times, criticized the Knicks to pieces!

"Crack!"

Cole opened the office door casually, holding the document in his hand and looked at Bruce who didn't care!

"Dude, it doesn't look like you're worried at all!" Cole handed over the document in his hand helplessly.

"Why worry?" Bruce said playfully, took the file, opened it and read it!

After a while, Bruce frowned and closed the document: "Why didn't you and Peter consider my publicity strategy?"

"Dude, although your way of publicity is very special, we still find it difficult to accept the Internet!" Cole shrugged helplessly. Although he also likes the complicated information and entertainment on the Internet, it is like a copy of the Internet after all. Fast food, 5 minutes or less will bury the published information in hundreds of millions of information streams!

"So, did I ask you to buy Microsoft and Apple in large quantities?" Bruce looked at Cole seriously. He was asked to do these things when he was reborn. In his previous life, he was very curious about the success of Microsoft and Apple. way.Therefore, after learning that I had returned to the United States in 98, I quickly handed over the purchase of the stocks of the two companies to Cole, but now I suddenly heard Cole say that "Slim Girl" has not yet resorted to Internet bombing. After reading the advertisement, I can't help but have some bad feelings in my heart!

"Uh." Cole looked at Bruce in astonishment. For some reason, he didn't answer this question for a long time!

"Mr. Cole, you didn't do that at all, did you?" Bruce suddenly felt a little angry. The purchase of the stocks of the two companies was a plan he made when he decided to buy the Warriors, especially the two companies. After entering the new millennium, the enviable stock gains can be shocking enough to collapse.

Noticing the growing anger in Bruce's eyes, Cole hurriedly said: "Hey! Dude, are you so impatient?" He said, without waiting for Bruce to attack, he hurriedly said: "You are a genius, if it weren't for this This thing, you are doing these things on the script and copyright, as well as the Warriors, I will definitely insist on blocking you!"

Bruce, who sensed some meaning, looked at Cole with a weird face, and the anger in his heart instantly turned into a trace of surprise: "Tell me! How much is left of the 2000 million I gave you?"

"God!" Cole was about to go crazy. Does this guy really distrust himself?Then he said angrily: "Bruce, what you say is an insult to me!" After speaking, he took out a palm-sized notepad from his body and threw it over angrily.

"I'm sorry! I'm just a little anxious, I'm really sorry!" Bruce thought about why Cole was so angry. When he realized the strong doubts in his words, he took the notepad in a panic, and apologized to Cole hastily!
What responded to him was a cold "hum" from Cole.

"I'm really sorry, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have questioned your ability again and again, I'm just a little anxious!" Bruce put down the notepad first, showing an innocent expression, and sincerely apologized to Cole again.

"Okay! Bruce, you should learn to trust your partner!" Seeing Bruce's sincerity, Cole, who knew him from childhood, chose to forgive!
"I'm sorry!" Bruce said guiltily. After pouring Cole a cup of coffee as an apology, he glanced at the notepad on the table and picked it up casually!
"What?" Bruce was taken aback by the information on the first page, which clearly marked the current state of his 2000 million.

Because of the release of Microsoft Windows98, this classic operating system is like highly concentrated fuel for a rocket. It quickly pushed Microsoft's stock back to the peak like a rocket launch!

And in just a few months, the 1000 million US dollars that Bruce invested crazyly reached nearly [-] million US dollars, completing an impossible miraculous increase.

On the other hand, Apple’s stock did not have this kind of miracle. The $1000 million that Cole used to buy the stock was due to the sharp decline in Apple’s sales and the confusion of top management, which caused the $1000 million to be sold in a short period of time. Nearly $200 million disappeared in a short period of time.

"Very good!" Bruce was going crazy with joy. Although he knew the power of Microsoft, he still had an incredible feeling when he saw the exact information on the notepad!
"Don't get too excited!" Cole seemed to be uncomfortable with Bruce's excitement, and then said the information obtained from the stock market with some seriousness: "According to the analysis of stockbrokers, this kind of dreamlike increase is very fast. It will burst, this is an abnormal growth, and we have to turn the stocks in our hands into cash as soon as possible!"

"No!" Bruce shook his head firmly. In his previous life, he knew very well what kind of sensation the release of Windows 98 brought to the IT industry.

"Trust me!" Seeing that Cole was still trying to dissuade him, Bruce looked at him firmly, further demonstrating his force field.

After these recent incidents, Cole found that Bruce, who used to only know how to play around, had changed a lot. He didn't care about anything before. Since his parents had an accident, he has almost changed into a different person. , and this kind of stubbornness is something he has never discovered before!
"Okay! Since you are serious, then I can only choose to follow!" Cole shrugged helplessly with an inexplicable sadness flashing in his eyes.

Afterwards, the two talked about some things about movies one after another, and things about Microsoft and Apple were never mentioned again.

After the two discussed it, and after getting Cole's promise to publicize it on the Internet, Bruce finally let go of his heart, and immediately expressed his thoughts on "Blair Witch"!

"You know this is a very good publicity opportunity! This slightly amateurish er... let's call it a movie!" Bruce said with a strange expression, and then told him some of the methods of operating the movie that he learned in his previous life. Cole listens.

"Do you still remember the legend about the Blair Witch?" Cole thought for a moment, then nodded affirmatively.

"So, why don't we treat it as something that really happened?" Bruce guided Cole's divergent thinking.

Upon hearing Bruce's proposal, Cole's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly, "You mean, we can treat this movie as a "real" mysterious incident of the Blair Witch, right?"

Seeing Bruce nodding, Cole felt like a lonely bird breaking out of the cage, and quickly diverged: "We can guide those audiences who pay attention to this mysterious event little by little, and more The internet could be used to create a mystery-seeking-focused website! Oh man, what a great idea!"

Bruce was completely shocked. What he said to Cole now was exactly what those guys in his previous life did. Judging from Cole's excited expression now, he is definitely not the rigid and extremely old young man.

Originally, he was going to try his best to persuade Cole to use the Internet, but now Bruce was shocked to find that this guy in front of him was definitely a once-in-a-thousand-year genius!
"Man, your idea is great, why didn't I think of it?" Cole excitedly praised Bruce, who was a little embarrassed, and then shouted loudly, "My Fair Lady will cooperate with this Internet promotion, definitely will !"

Even if the Blair Witch is as convincing as the previous life, the box office is at most the same as the previous life. With the super dark horse posture that Slim Girl showed on the 29th, the influence of this movie will definitely be expanded.

Of course, this is just Bruce's analysis based on the first-day box office of Slender Girl in her previous life.Now he can't wait to see how this "movie" that only cost 7000 US dollars will surprise those film critics and Hollywood!
The two talked about some details, and Bruce sent Cole away, who couldn't wait, in a funny way, and then looked forward to looking forward to the team things that he should care more about!

Just as Bruce finished sorting out the documents, the phone on the desk rang!

"Hi, this is Bruce Yang!" Bruce asked politely.

"Hello, little Bruce!" Baylor's excited voice came from the receiver.

Hearing Baylor's voice, Bruce faintly looked forward to it. Hearing the excitement revealed in the other party's tone, he knew that there would be some good news this time!
"The Wizards are a little dissatisfied with the short bench insiders in their team. They are very happy to participate in our transaction, so, shall we talk about it as soon as possible?" The ultimatum, after learning that Olowokandi signed an agreement with Italy's Bologna at the end of 98, because he was called to "maintain a competitive state" by this guy in order to earn some extra money during the labor negotiations. , after signing a one-month one-million-dollar contract.

This made Baylor extremely angry, but the owner of the Clippers was extremely in favor of this kind of thing, and now looking for a trade for Bruce is a bit helpless.
