Chapter 268: 268

San Francisco.

Palo Alto, a city of technology companies in the south of the bay area.

When he came to the United States in January, Tim Berners Lee quickly set up the basic framework of igritte company, relying on the rich technological human resources of Silicon Valley and the financial support of westero company.

Igrit's headquarters are located in a three story white building on Thurman Street East of Stanford University.

After returning from Europe, Simon has been in close contact with Tim Berners Lee by telephone. Today, when he has time, he flew to San Francisco to check out this crucial technology company in his own layout.

Tim Berners Lee welcomed Simon to igritte headquarters in person. They entered the hall on the ground floor of the office building and stopped at the same time.

The hall is a horizontal rectangular pattern, the area is not large.

In addition to the reception desk, the most striking is the phrase "you know nothing" inlaid on the wall with different colored letters behind the reception desk.

After stopping for a moment, Simon noticed that Tim Berners Lee was looking at the phrase on the wall. He stopped and said, "Tim, don't say anything. You can't understand the meaning of this sentence anyway."

Tim Berners Lee nodded slightly, but still said, "I just think it's a bit of a wake-up call. No matter how hard we try, our understanding of the world is still shallow. "

Simon almost laughed and thought he couldn't bully an honest man too much, so he forced himself to hold back and patted Li on the shoulder and said, "that's right, so let's go in."

Tim Berners Lee noticed the difference in Simon's expression, but he didn't go into it.

When they came to the office area on the first floor, Li introduced Simon to a group of employees he had just hired and explained his work achievements in the past month.

"I have completed the most basic technical framework of the world wide web, and submitted patent applications to major countries in North America and Europe. Simon, this is Michael levy. He is the head of the first floor team, mainly responsible for improving technical standards such as HTML and HTTP. "

The Internet is a broad concept which was formally formed in the 1990s.

The world wide web is Tim Berners Lee's idea, that is, the world wide web technology, which can be said to be the foundation of the Internet. Many years later, most of the web pages that ordinary people can access begin with WWW, which is enough to show the importance of this technology.

After communicating with the staff on the first floor, they went upstairs.

The area of this three story building is not very large. At present, igritte company has 39 employees including Tim Berners Lee himself, so there is still some space in the building. However, Li plans to expand the staff size to 100 in the next few months, divided into several teams, responsible for the development of browser software, web design software and basic technology agreements.

Simon didn't set too strict a schedule for igritte. However, according to Lee's plan, it will take only six months for igrit to complete its two core products, namely user oriented browser software and developer oriented web design software.

In fact, software development is not as big as ordinary people think.

As early as working in Europe, Li has designed a very primitive web browser software in his spare time. However, the software requires users to set various connection parameters by themselves. Ordinary people can't use it at all, let alone the familiar functions of "home page", "download" and "collection".

Igrit's next goal is to develop a "fool like" Gui browser. When Simon and Lee met in Geneva, they provided him with a mature GUI browser design idea in his memory.

After walking through several teams on the third floor, they took Simon to the office. Tim Berners Lee happily introduced to Simon the rudiment of a website he had built recently. The technology he used was his previous technology accumulation. Although the website in front of him can only show the basic introduction information of the group of employees that igritte had just hired recently, Simon was not satisfied To be sure, this should be the world's comparison. The box office of ghost hunters 2 in the first week was almost twice that of bodyguard, but the box office fell by 55% in the next three days. Such a deep drop curve makes the Hollywood Reporter's forecast of the total box office of ghost hunters 2 in North America only $100 million.

Renee Russell has a deep memory of a comment on bodyguard in Hollywood Reporter.

Laurence Kasdan, the gold medal screenwriter who once wrote "Raiders" and "Star Wars", finished the script of "bodyguard" in the 1970s. In these years, he was rejected more than 60 times. Almost all Hollywood film companies are not optimistic about this project.

However, the script fell into the hands of Simon westero. When everyone was still not optimistic about the film until it was released, "bodyguard" unexpectedly created a miraculous sales data of original records, and the box office numbers for several weeks were far higher than everyone expected.The reporter of the Hollywood Reporter praised the film with a kind of admiration, most of which was attributed to Simon westero. This young man seems to have a talent for miracles.

At this time, she could walk with him under the envy of many other women.

Although he is very indifferent to himself, she knows that following him out of this small section of the road, the news spreads, and her future acting career in Hollywood will be a little smoother.

Hollywood is actually very superstitious about authority.

The budget of "good guy" is 25 million dollars, which is definitely not low even though the budget of Hollywood movies has soared in recent years.

It is said that Warner would not have approved the project if De Niro hadn't agreed to play, even if the film's director was Martin Scorsese. Now, because of Simon westero's attention, Warner seems to have a little more confidence in the project.

In recent meetings, both Martin Scorsese, the director of good guy, and Evan Winkler, the producer of the film, have asked her, consciously or unconsciously, what Simon westero thinks of the play. She is a rootless and bottomless woman in Hollywood. During this period of time, she did not encounter certain situations of new actress among a group of celebrities. They all took her for granted as Simon westrow's lover.

At first, I was worried that others would despise myself because of this identity. Later, I gradually realized that most people who knew about it were just envious.

She also learned from some small talk in the circle that compared with many Hollywood celebrities, the famous young man around him has a very moderate private life, and few women can walk up to him. So you can see how lucky she is.

Are you lucky?

Perhaps, she has never been an innocent woman, in the face of such a can make her career become extremely easy to rely on, she is difficult to refuse. In her 35 years of life, she has long lost the idealism of young girls, and she knows how rare it is to meet such opportunities in this circle.

It's just that.

Most people may not know that she and he have only seen each other twice since we met.

Yeah.

Count in today, three times.

The administrative area of the movie city is in the southeast corner, but the center will arrive soon.

Seeing that he wanted to walk directly into the post center, her resentment became stronger, but she could only take the initiative to say, "Simon, do you, um, have dinner together in the evening?"

Simon stopped, looked at the woman beside him and shook his head: "I'm a little tired today. Let's talk about it next time."

Looking at the disappearance of men's figure, there is even a faint impulse to shed a few tears.

Try to bear it.

There are several people around looking at themselves. How can they lose their manners. What's more, it's for the sake of so many hateful men.

It's hopeless.

After taking a deep breath, he smiles at a couple of men and women who look at her, puts his bag on his shoulder, turns around and walks to the administrative district as if nothing had happened.

I had a busy afternoon.

In the evening, Simon didn't meet Renee Russell when he left the studio. Instead, Scorsese came to his studio in the afternoon to say hello.

When we got to Denise entertainment Burbank branch, the female assistant was waiting for him to report some things that needed his attention today.

After Columbia Pictures announced that "sex, lies and video" will be released on July 7, universal pictures also announced today that "Cinema Paradise", which won Cannes Palme d'Or award, will be released on July 28.

A lot of things have changed.

"Sex, lies and video" failed to get the Palme d'Or, and the marketing strategy adopted by Colombia was not as effective as Miramax in Simon's view. It's hard to say what the box office prospects of the film are.

As for cinema paradise, it is a mistake for Simon to choose the schedule at the end of July.

The original movie paradise cinema was re edited when it was released in North America. Now, in just two months, Simon doesn't think universal can be careful enough to re edit the movie. If it is still released in accordance with the original version of two and a half hours, the end is even more unpredictable.

What's more, in the original time and space, Miramax put the film on the long-term release in the award season, which largely relied on the months long debate offensive of the award season. Now, globegroup can only rely on the fame of Cannes Palme d'Or of cinema paradise for publicity.

In Simon's view, the influence of palms in North America is far less than that in Europe. What's more, compared with the vulgar novel starred by De Niro, Redford and other celebrities last year, cinema paradise is still an Italian film with obvious disadvantages.

These thoughts just flashed through Simon's mind.

I left Burbank on time today after I finished talking with Jennifer after work.

As the car shuttled southward between the mountain roads, Simon looked bored out of the window and suddenly remembered Janet's advice when he left Melbourne.Girls love surprises.

What's more, after so long away from Melbourne, I really want to visit women.

So he ordered Neil Bennett, the driver, to contact the flight and plan to fly to Australia in the evening.
