Motorola is already a behemoth. When he cleared Motorola shares, Simon never paid attention to the company again.
However, Nokia, which stood side by side with Motorola in the 1990s, is now just a small shrimp huddled in a corner of Northern Europe. Such a mobile communications company that has risen and declined rapidly has a peak market value of more than 200 billion US dollars. How can I let it go? !
Moreover, Cersei Capital can provide Simon with enough chips to swallow Nokia.
Thinking of Nokia, Simon was not too eager.
In recent years, mobile communications are still in the era of analog signals. The era of digital signals will gradually arrive in two or three years. Nokia started to rise relying on digital mobile phones and the GSM standard. Simon still has enough time, and this thing is just right. Scheduled for a European trip in the second half of the year.
However, thinking of Nokia, Simon also made up his mind to carefully sort out his memory during his vacation after completing "Batman" in order to find more 'potential stocks' that are still dormant.
Everyone came to the parking lot, and after Amy finished making the call, the four of them rushed to a nearby restaurant to eat.
Meanwhile, all corners of North America.
As the weekend approaches, office workers are beginning to plan entertainment activities for their days off.
A long-established habit, watching a movie with family and friends on weekends is a very common pastime. What's more, it's the summer season where all kinds of blockbusters are gathering. As for the large number of student parties who are in the summer season, they can enter the theater at any time without making special arrangements.
A series of movies currently being released.
"Raiders of the Lost Ark", the sequel that I have been looking forward to for several years, naturally I have watched it the first time;
"Bodyguard", the original soundtrack has been purchased;
"Ghostbusters 2" and "The Last of Us 3" are said to be sequel projects that Columbia Pictures hastily launched in order to boost its stock price during acquisition negotiations with Sony. The reputation is in shambles and they were skipped;
"Honey, I Shrunk the Kids," Disney's family favorite, is said to be pretty good;
"The Sixth Sense," a new film that opens today, is written by Simon Westeros and stars Robert De Niro. Although I don’t know what I’m talking about specifically, horror movies and Westeros horror movie scripts have always been excellent, not to mention De Niro. De Niro rarely appears in horror movies, so you must watch it;

The box office performance of Daenerys Entertainment's movies last year was really eye-catching. "The Sixth Sense" was also created by Simon and De Niro. Although the promotion of this movie seemed a bit tepid, in order to avoid being accidentally crushed, other movies Companies have chosen to avoid it.
As a result, "The Sixth Sense", like "Raiders of the Lost Ark" and "The Bodyguard," became the only new film to start filming this week.
Needless to say, Simon, De Niro also re-established his reputation after two consecutive films, "Pulp Fiction" and "Dead Poets Society." Therefore, many viewers regard "The Sixth Sense" as their first choice for weekend viewing.
Manhattan.
Lisa Collins, who had already become a formal practicing lawyer and got a job at the famous Skadden Law Firm, finished a busy day of work, had dinner with her boyfriend, and finally entered the movie theater around nine o'clock in the evening.
The movie I watched was, of course, "The Sixth Sense."
Two years later, the trip to Park City with Jennifer has become the most special experience in Lisa Collins' mind.
During the short weekend together, Lisa Collins originally thought that the young man was already amazing enough. Unexpectedly, that Sundance Film Festival was just the beginning of his strong life.
Now, he is the youngest director of Hollywood's annual box-office champion film. He has created or directed a lot of box-office hits. He can play the amazing "Flight of the Bumblebee" and he has also become the youngest director. Winner of the Palme d'Or at Cannes, he miraculously quickly amassed a multi-billion dollar fortune.
Just last week, an unintentional trip to visit his girlfriend nearly triggered a stock market crash in the world's second-largest economy.
Seeing him create miracles one after another, Lisa Collins became the young man's staunchest admirer even though they only met him once. When her best friend ran to be his assistant without hesitation, Lisa even had the same idea, but in the end she couldn't make the trip due to various constraints.
However, while Jenny has always paid attention to him, she has always supported every work he created.
Lisa Collins even owned a copy of a piano solo video called "Blizzard". Jenny let it slip during a phone chat. In order to get the copy of the video, Lisa threatened to kill herself and go to Los Angeles to rob her. Even her lover Jenny reluctantly gave in and sent her a copy. As a result, she admired him even more.
Inside the screening room of a theater on Broadway Avenue.
Thinking about these things, she felt her boyfriend Carl Royd next to her help her support the popcorn bucket that was about to spill in her arms. Lisa Collins came back to her senses and smiled at the other person, but in her heart she felt sorry for this man. My boyfriend, who works at Goldman Sachs, is not happy.
He secretly made up his mind that if the guy next to him dared to hint at asking his father to help him introduce clients, he would kick him out.
Seeing that you are handsome and good at coaxing people, and you are barely capable, I gave you a little treatment to comfort my sister and my lonely body and mind after my heavy work.
We've known each other for less than two months and already want to eat my sweet rice.
Nonsence!
The lights in the screening room dimmed, and Lisa Collins put aside those messy thoughts.
After a few short commercials, Daenerys Pictures' gorgeous Phoenix Reborn title animation appeared on the big screen.
Just in this title sequence, Lisa Collins discovered something unusual.
The film labels under Daenerys Entertainment are divided into three. Daenerys Pictures is Phoenix Reborn, specializing in mainstream commercial films; New World Pictures is Clear Sky After Thunder, focusing on the thriller market. ; Gaomen Pictures is a mobile film full of artistic flavor, responsible for the production and distribution of artistic films.
If "The Sixth Sense" is simply a 'horror film' promoted by Daenerys Entertainment, it should be distributed under the New World Pictures label.
Now, it is the 'Phoenix' commercial film label owned by Daenerys Entertainment.
The credits end and the plot begins directly.
The scene turned to a hall where a cocktail party was being held. On the podium, an old man with gray hair was delivering a speech, to the effect of awarding an honorary citizen certificate to Dr. Malcolm Crowe, who had made great contributions to child psychology. The plot advances very quickly. After a lively but brief exchange of wine, Dr. Crowe, played by Robert De Niro, returns home with his wife.
In addition to De Niro, Lisa Collins felt that the actress who played the role of Dr. Crowe’s wife also looked familiar.
Hmm... that's right, 'Eve' from Once Upon a Time in America.
This is the second time the two have played lovers.
However, the actress was not well-known and Lisa did not know her name.
On the big screen, the Crowes were still unsatisfied after returning home. His wife Anna was going to the wine cellar to get a bottle of red wine to celebrate when she unexpectedly discovered an intruder in their home.
Dr. Crow protected his wife and carefully communicated with the uninvited guest, and gradually learned that the other person was a mental patient whom he had helped to no avail. After the patient expressed his despair, he shot Dr. Crowe and then aimed the gun at his own temple.
Gunfire rang out again.
The camera shakes and turns to Dr. Crowe who was shot and fell to the ground. Along with Anna's frightened cry, the camera slowly zooms up.
Immediately, the wedge ended.
In the aimless and cold-toned wandering street scenes, accompanied by the sound of music, the creative subtitles began to appear.
Simon made a lot of adjustments to the beginning of the new version of the film. Perhaps in order to save budget, the original opening scene where the Crowes suddenly read lines to an honorary certificate was changed to a lively cocktail party, and a coherent plot flashed quickly. , and also introduced the identity of the male protagonist more clearly.
The shot of aimless wandering in the deserted streets of San Jose is used as a wedge and the transition between the formal plot. It is also a carefully designed metaphor, suggesting that the male protagonist has turned into a soul state and wanders around the city. .
Of course, these details need to be discovered by the audience after watching the entire film.
In the screening room, Lisa Collins, who knew nothing about the plot, could not understand this excessive metaphor, but her curiosity was aroused by the opening wedge, and she began to guess whether this was a flashback film, Doctor Crow Is the suicidal patient at home the psychic boy shown in the TV trailer
However, when the plot officially unfolds, the timeline is already one year later.
Dr. Crowe was sitting on a bench on the street looking through a patient's information. The camera scanned the medical record in the doctor's hand, and some key information was circled.
'Cole Hill, 9. '
'My parents are divorced. '
'Withdrawn personality, extreme anxiety, and may suffer from mood disorders. '
Camera switch.
On the other side of the street, the boy walked out of the house, put on his glasses, and carefully looked around, like a frightened little beast, ready to escape from natural enemies at any time.
Apparently, this is Cole Hill.
Dr. Crowe followed Cole to a church and began to communicate with the boy who looked wary. With Dr. Crowe's calm words, Cole gradually relaxed and even took the initiative to strike up a conversation with the doctor.
During the first contact, Dr. Crowe found that the boy could speak Latin, showed imaginary symptoms, and had unknown wounds on his arms, indicating that he might have been abused.
Immediately afterwards, the plot began to be divided into two. The cold war between Dr. Crowe and his wife Anna made the audience more curious about what happened in this year.
Various strange situations appear from time to time in the life of the boy Cole.
As a senior movie fan with a very meticulous mind, Lisa Collins was vaguely aware of something less than half an hour into the film. Lisa Collins absolutely confirmed it until Cole said that 'They don't know they're dead' line.
Dr. Crow died a year ago!
After discovering this secret, Lisa Collins couldn't help but look around. In the uncertain light and shadow, some of the spectators around her basically looked attentive. There was no such thing as Lisa herself who appeared because she discovered something. Suddenly.
Obviously, most people are not aware of the most important foreshadowing of the film.
However, although the plot of "The Sixth Sense" is not as ups and downs as some big-budget films, the continuous suspense, the interaction between the two protagonists, and the ghosts that appear from time to time around the boy all firmly attract the audience's attention. Power, people can't help but wonder what all this is going on, how the story will progress next, and whether the doctor can cure the boy's 'illness'.
Lisa Collins looked at her boyfriend again. Karl noticed her looking at him and immediately looked back at the big screen, smiled at her and said, "It's a very interesting movie."
"yes."
Lisa nodded and looked at the big screen again.
Even though the biggest secret of the film has been released, she did not feel bored at all and was equally curious about the ending of the story.
On the screen, everything seems to be moving in a good direction.
With Dr. Crow's continued guidance, Cole gradually opened up his heart and learned to communicate with the ghosts around him. When he successfully helped a little girl who was poisoned to expose her stepmother's evil deeds, Lisa in the screening room couldn't help but feel an unspeakable excitement. Perhaps, this should be Cole's future.
In the film, after experiencing this incident, Cole finally let go of his worries and took the opportunity of a car accident to confess to his mother that he could see ghosts.
Looking at the mother and son hugging each other and crying on the big screen, Lisa felt that her eyes were slightly wet, but the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up. In the screening hall, many viewers also had expressions of deep or shallow emotion.
However, Cole’s story is over, where is Dr. Crow
When most of the audience was still immersed in the consummation of Cole and his son, and even thought that the movie was about to end, the plot turned back to Dr. Crowe.
What follows should be a self-narrative conclusion, right
People speculated.
Dr. Crowe failed to save the young man who committed suicide. Now, he finally completed a redemption and successfully helped another child get out of the haze.
perhaps.
The couple should be able to bury the hatchet.
Sure enough, Dr. Crowe returned home, and the wedding video of the two was playing on the TV. His wife was still calling Malcolm's name in her sleep. She obviously still loved him. Now, he should only need to wake her up, the two of them embrace sweetly, Dr. Crowe explains to his wife what he did during this period, and the rift between the couple caused by the incident last year should be able to mend.
at last.
Happy Ending!
A standard Hollywood ending.
However.
Dr. Crowe echoed Anna's ravings affectionately. When he was moved, he finally leaned forward and wanted to kiss his wife.
However, the wife in the dream instinctively avoided it. During the movement, the palm she was holding opened up, and a wedding ring fell from her hand and rolled towards Dr. Crowe with a soft sound.
His wife's wedding ring was clearly on her hand. Dr. Crow stared at the other ring rolling towards him, a ring that should have been worn on his own hand, and raised his left hand tremblingly.
Strong emotions came over me.
I don't know if it's fear or anger.
Then.
He saw the cold breath coming from his wife's mouth.
A series of overlapping voices rushed through my mind crazily, that boy's voice.
"We'll meet again, right?"
"They don't know they're dead."
"I can see ghosts."
"When they're angry, it gets really cold around here."
"Maybe we can pretend we meet again tomorrow, just pretend."
“…”
“…”
It turns out that he is the person who didn't know he was dead, a ghost.
