VCDs.

This is really interesting information.

If Takeshi Iwata remembers correctly, there will probably be a standard for this thing next year.

In other words, if you don't know this industry specifically, it is really impossible to understand this thing in this year.

But why did Liu Zechang and the others know about it?

The layout of the VCD production line is arranged in China, especially in the south.

In this regard, the one most familiar to ordinary people has to be the endorsement of Big Brother Long...

Ahem, big brother Long is really awesome, he is definitely a guiding light in the industry.

It's too accurate, whoever speaks for it will fall.

However, this actually illustrates some problems.

The VCD of that well-known brand is actually very strong in the industry, and the advertisement is done on CCTV, so it is not something to be intimidated by.

As for the subsequent fall, it really doesn't have much to do with the big brother Long... Maybe, a little bit.

This is not the point.

The point is location.

The industry standard for VCD is indeed created by big international companies, such as Dafa and Philips.

It can be produced in the south of our country, where there are many overseas Chinese villages, so it has many connections with overseas Chinese.

It is quite normal for overseas Hongmen brothers to know some situations, and now Liu Zechang deliberately wants to make friends with Takeshi Iwata.

Yes, from this point, it can be seen that the top of Jinbao Mountain just wants to form an alliance with Takeshi Iwata.

In fact, it's normal to think about it. Who are the so-called Asians in the United States?

Ah San definitely formed a faction of their own, they formed a group of Indians.

The number of Koreans is not too many, but they are more likely to form groups, as evidenced by the Los Angeles riots.

So, what about the rest?

Mainly Chinese and Japanese.

In fact, Chinese and Japanese are a large number of Asians.

Chinese Americans even came during the California gold rush. You know, the current San Francisco is what we call San Francisco.

Jinshan is old.

But it's a pity that the Chinese themselves really don't hold together, even if there is a mountain like Jinbaoshan.

There are many factors involved. Those Chinese workers back then had already integrated into American society long ago.

Some guy in Cao County yelling 'I'm Chinese don't shoot', there's a lot of that stuff.

In addition, it came from that island.

Those like Liu Zechang still have thoughts about the motherland, which is pretty good, while some are simply Gao Hua in a proper way.

As far as this composition is concerned, it would be strange not to have an inner ghost.

Just now, I did something myself, such as setting up a militia team and doing patrols like South Korea.

As a result, the US imperial police gave it away the next day because someone was a good citizen of the US imperialism and tipped off the news.

Faced with such a situation, Liu Zechang complained endlessly.

With the heavy loss, there was a guy like Wang Laosan who came up with a plan.

Let's just discuss it with Takeshi Iwata, whether we can join hands to avoid such incidents from happening in the future.

Their condition is that they can inform Takeshi Iwata of VCD-related information in great detail.

Everyone is not stupid and can fully guess that this thing will definitely have a huge impact.

Currently Takeshi Iwata's main industry in Japan is the rental of video tapes. What if VCDs come up to boost the business?

Needless to say, the Weinstein brothers are quite able to work.

This is indeed a moderate challenge.

If it's someone else, then there are probably not many moves, but who is Takeshi Iwata?

Indeed, the emergence of VCD is definitely a revolutionary change in video products.

However, Takeshi Iwata still has a way.

And what about the olive branches thrown out by Jinbao Mountain?

Iwata Takeshi didn't think long, and agreed directly.

That's right, it was so straightforward that Liu Zechang was taken aback.

But after agreeing to this, everyone is a family.

Wait a minute, there's got to be some ceremony.

Generally speaking, the safest way to unite within the Hongmen is to ask for help.

Chop the chicken head and burn the yellow paper, the deed.

This is really the same as Japan... It seems that Japan just learned it.

In short, everyone is similar, but now, the Chinese and Japanese gangsters are all in the United States, what should we do?

"Mr. Iwata, as the saying goes, there is a god in the sky, let's sign a contract."

This……

The contract has something to do with the gods! Hey!

Iwata Takeshi wanted to complain, but he could only smile at each other.

After all, this Jinbaoshan is considered the local snake in Los Angeles, and it is definitely good to have this extra help.

With the Weinstein brothers, it's always good to have more help, right?

in this way……

"With the help of Mr. Liu, I am more confident. As for the safety issue, please rest assured."

With Takeshi Iwata's words, Liu Zechang was also quite happy.

In the minds of this gangster, Takeshi Iwata will probably recruit many important cadres from the Yamamoto-gumi, so that Jinbaoshan's strength will be greatly enhanced.

Among other things, can there be more arms or something?

In fact, what Takeshi Iwata thought was that the Los Angeles riots would be nothing after a while.

Wouldn't that be safe?

As for things like arms, I'm a law-abiding citizen, so how could I engage in those things.

If someone comes, then there is no problem, after all, the United States is still very attractive to the Japanese.

Inexplicably, I thought of the movie "Big Brother" by Takeshi Kitano.

In fact, the best performer in this movie is Susumu Terajima.

This guy sat on the sofa, said something to the Japanese gang leader in the United States, and then shot himself in the temple with a slight smile on his face.

Do you want to make this movie?

For the time being, let's get rid of the opponent and the movie at hand first.

……

"Bob, is there any reaction from Takeshi Iwata?"

"There's nothing to see yet."

"What is this guy this time..."

"Harvey, isn't that great?"

"But it's a little strange."

"Haha... what's so strange, victory is just around the corner."

The Weinstein Brothers have a good plan.

Subvert the traditional video tape market by getting the earliest VCD video disc.

They controlled the initial supply of this thing, and then supplied it to video rental stores other than Takeshi Iwata.

In this way, even if there is any activity of giving away video recorders in those stores of Takeshi Iwata, there must be a lot less gimmicks.

Absolutely lose first.

Of course, controlling the supply of goods requires a lot of money.

But it doesn't matter in this respect, the two brothers are originally Disney's 'gloves', and they have already successfully fooled them early in the morning.

In fact, Disney is also very optimistic about this VCD. You must know that this new production contains huge benefits.

A new product appears, a newer gadget.

If it can be accepted by the public, it will be like digging a new gold mine.

This situation has happened many times in places like the United States.

Said far away is Edison.

In fact, he is a capitalist, but in those days, when he showed the light bulb, he gave people the feeling of a scientist.

Jobs learned from him, but later showed a computer.

If VCD can replace video tape, Disney's profits will be extremely huge.

They also have numerous film and television copyrights, once successful, not only in the US market, but also in the world.

Even, it's not just the first test source.

It is completely possible to be a monopoly.

Capitalist.

Now let the Weinstein Brothers try it, just give some money, sprinkle water.

However, Harvey, the elder brother, is still a little worried about Takeshi Iwata.

Did he notice something this time?

VCD sets standards, and one of the more powerful companies is Sony.

That's a Japanese company. Takeshi Iwata, the director of a daily newspaper, opened a video rental store in the United States. Would he not know?

But the latest news is...

"That guy Takeshi Iwata is making a movie, and he just got permission from USC to build a studio there."

Hearing such news, Harvey Weinstein was convinced.

……

USC, this is a university with a high status in the minds of our people.

Of course, I'm not saying that this university is not good at all, but it is indeed a little bit exaggerated.

For example, many people compare USC with the University of Chicago.

In the end, I came to the conclusion that it is better to go to Southern California to study abroad.

Well, if you hear this statement, you can basically confirm that this is a black intermediary.

However, considering some aspects, such as safety, it seems that the University of Chicago is really stretching the hips.

But now, Takeshi Iwata is not here to study abroad.

"Hey! Everyone! Pull yourself together!"

Wearing a pair of sunglasses, a Hawaiian shirt, and big pants, Takeshi Iwata, who doesn't look like a well-known director at all, just came to his set.

Fortunately, most of the people on the set are acquaintances of Takeshi Iwata.

"Hey! Bro!"
