Influenced by Elon Musk, Li Mu also became interested in the plan to colonize Mars. He hoped to use his money and influence to help SpaceX complete this feat as soon as possible, so after discussing with Elon Musk, he decided When "The Flying Tigers" is released, he will announce to the world his decision to invest at least 10 billion US dollars in ten years to explore and land on Mars.
By then, Elon Musk can also take the opportunity to sell his space dream to the world.
See which rich people who are also interested are willing to support it, or who want to take a space flight, or who want to sleep in space after death.
Musk wanted to take Li Mu and announce that he would send his ashes into space in the future, but Li Mu almost kicked him away.
If conditions permit, he is willing to try to take a walk in space, which can be regarded as completing a feat.
But he was really not interested in launching his ashes into space.
Chinese people don’t have such a strong desire for adventure, unlike Europeans and Americans who want to die on the way to adventure.
Li Mu watched "The Three-Body Problem" in his previous life. When he saw that Yun Tianming was willing to let humans launch his brain into the Trisolaran Fleet several light-years away, he felt a chill.
What kind of person can have such determination to let his or her living brain fly into the vast universe
Maybe if it were Elon Musk, he would also agree to such an unprecedented adventure. This guy has a strong spirit of adventure in his bones. Li Mu even suspected that his real motivation for starting a business in his life was to one day be able to land on Mars. For this goal, this guy will sacrifice anything.
In addition to the space plan to Mars, Li Mu also brought Elon Musk back to reality and asked him about Tesla's specific relocation requirements.
We started preparing to build the factory immediately, coming up with the planning and design plan first, and starting construction immediately after passing the review. Tesla is not large and has not many employees, so it can move to Yanjing immediately after the factory is completed.
In principle, in the first phase, Tesla will only retain its R&D department in the United States, and all assembly, production, and testing links will be moved to Yanjing. In the second phase, Tesla's R&D department will also gradually move to Yanjing. All move-ins will be gradually realized.
Li Mu even wanted to move SpaceX to China, but Elon Musk told him that SpaceX hired many people from NASA and used a lot of NASA technology. If it moved to China, let alone the U.S. Department of Commerce and Defense. Is it allowed? Even if they allow it, it will be difficult to get technical support from NASA in the future.
Li Mu could only give up this idea for the time being and get Tesla in first.
At the same time, Volvo is also actively preparing for its relocation. Early personnel representatives have gone to Sweden to negotiate with worker representatives at Volvo's local production base.
The main result of the negotiation is that they are willing to follow Volvo to China. For this reason, Makino Automobile Group will pay at least 150% of their salary and sign a three-year contract with them. Within three years, they must work in China 11 times a year. In these 11 months, they enjoy normal weekends and holidays, and the remaining month is paid family leave.
When Volvo was purchased, most of the workers signed three- to five-year labor contracts with Volvo under the leadership of Ford. In the future, these workers must continue to serve Volvo for three to five years, but the contract did not require them to On the terms of leaving the country and working overseas, Li Mu now wants to move all the production lines of these brands to China one after another. He really needs to reach an agreement with these workers.
Three years is enough time to train and develop a new team while producing. If some of these people are ready to return to China after three years, the impact on Volvo as a whole will not be too great.
In fact, these days, it doesn’t matter whether a job is at home or on the other side of the world. What matters is how much money you can earn.
Some media have reported on Li Mu’s next major plans in the automobile industry. The report speculated that Li Mu will take all the Volvo, Jaguar, Land Rover and Tesla he acquired to Yanjing. At the same time, he will most likely start his own business. One brand, that is to say, Yanjing will add five automobile companies in the near future and become the largest automobile production base in China.
Once this report was released, it put a lot of pressure on Hyundai and Mercedes-Benz.
Hyundai and Mercedes-Benz are both foreign-funded enterprises that cooperate with Yanjing Automobile Group, and their product lines basically do not overlap, so there is no competitive relationship. After all, the mainstay of Hyundai's sales is generally around 200,000 and below. models, and currently there is no car priced below 200,000 yuan by Mercedes-Benz.
However, no one knows what Li Mu’s future market positioning will be. Just looking at Volvo, Jaguar, and Land Rover, they will directly compete with Mercedes-Benz. At the same time, Li Mu has always focused on the mass class, so he is likely to target the B-class car market. The launch of mid- to low-end models robbed Hyundai’s business in one fell swoop.
Other car brands are also in a panic. Li Mu has taken so much land at once and prepared for such a large-scale industrial relocation and integration and reconstruction. It is almost like a torrent of iron armor. Coupled with Li Mu's usual routine of doing things, he fights high and manages enough funds. , I’m afraid it won’t be long before all China’s automobile brands, joint venture brands and foreign brands will face a huge impact from Makino Automobile Group.
…
At this time, Spielberg came to Yanjing with all the post-production work on "Flying Tigers".
Li Mu plans to submit the copy to the General Administration for review after he has seen the sample film and determined that there are no problems. Once he gets the dragon mark, he can make arrangements for subsequent releases.
The test screening was held inside Makino Technology. After Li Mu determined the landing time of Spielberg's business jet, he invited executives from several companies to Makino Technology in advance, and then sent a convoy to the airport to pick him up.
As soon as Spielberg got off the plane, he rushed to Makino Technology with a copy of the movie.
Li Mu has been waiting for this movie for a long time, so he is looking forward to it very much at this time.
This film not only carries Li Mu’s feelings about his family and country, but also interprets the facts of World War II, as well as Li Mu’s expectations and sustenance for Chinese films to go global.
It will become the world's first large-scale production and global release film about China's fight against Japanese aggression.
Prior to this, there had been almost no active filming of films about China's resistance to Japanese aggression in the world. The only record of Chinese anti-Japanese war films made by Americans was "Dragon Seed" in 1944.
Although there are a large number of anti-Japanese war-themed movies in China, none of them have ever truly made it onto the international stage. Our anti-Japanese-themed movies have basically no influence overseas, and very few of them can even be released overseas.
At the same time, because the Japanese chaebol have a strong influence in the global entertainment industry, in recent years, various films that cleanse Japan's society have emerged one after another.
"The Last Samurai", which was a hit in the previous life but was aborted by Li Mu in this life, is the best representative.
This bullshit movie describes Japan’s extreme Bushido spirit as something that exists like Shinto. The Japanese Bushido spirit is as gorgeous as cherry blossoms. The key point is that this is a movie made by Americans. Little does anyone know that those kamikaze planes crashed into American warships. The Expendables believe in this spirit and are inspired by this spirit.
But why is Hollywood willing to make such a movie to celebrate the spirit of Bushido
Why did Tom Cruise not only participate in this movie, but also promote his love for Bushido spirit and Japanese culture
After all, isn't it the Japanese capitalists who are behind this
If someone pays to promote it, there will be people who are willing to film, act, and distribute and promote it globally.
Why have Hollywood’s World War II movies about Germany’s oppression of the Jews been popping up over the years
"Schindler's List", "Life is Beautiful", "The Pianist", "The Boy in the Striped Pajamas" and so on.
The Soviets and Poles paid a heavier price in World War II, but why did Hollywood rarely make World War II movies about them
In the final analysis, the main reason is that Jewish capitalists are too powerful. They control almost half of Hollywood. Their capital power has promoted the filming and release of similar film projects one after another.
Before Li Mu invested in "Flying Tigers", domestic capitalists had never thought of using their capital strength to invest in some movies about World War II internationally, so that people around the world could better understand the contributions made by the Chinese people in World War II and the The damage he suffered until Li Mu rose up.
Now, Li Mu has become a powerful asset that Hollywood can't afford to offend and even wants to try to curry favor with him. That's why Hollywood is willing to invest a lot of energy and follow him in making a big production with Chinese anti-Japanese themes.
If this large-scale film can succeed on a global scale, it will truly open up the influence of China's World War II theme in the international film market, and at the same time make people all over the world face up to the history of Japan's invasion of China.
This is also the fundamental reason why Li Mu wants to distribute the film globally.
Prior to this, it was much more difficult than imagined for a film with an anti-Japanese theme to be distributed globally.
Behind this is a powerful game between capitals.
If Li Mu's strength were slightly weaker, it might be possible that under the covert manipulation of Japanese chaebols, it would be difficult for this movie to be released in most countries and regions.
But now, things are different.
Not only is Li Mu richer than every Japanese chaebol, the key is that he is more influential than all Japanese chaebols combined.
Therefore, his goal is to release it in all developed countries, developing countries and regions, even if it loses money, it must be released.
Naturally, the Japanese government would not dare to interfere in this kind of movie that objectively explains historical facts, but the Japanese chaebol will definitely make trouble behind the scenes.
Li Mu has also thought clearly that if there is a Japanese chaebol who dares to play tricks on him, he will directly fight them to the end.
