Old Larry seamlessly slotted into the small talk; it was like three weirdos getting together today.
Poor David Ellison was excluded. After all, his expertise is in Hollywood and he has little to say about technology.
In the afternoon, Xia Yu talked to him a lot about science fiction movies and got a lot of industry insider information.
He will definitely make a science fiction blockbuster in the future. The most mature production model in this regard is Hollywood. It would be a good idea to learn more about it. Maybe we can even work together.
The domestic film "The Wandering Earth" has made a lot of progress, but there is still a gap in relevant talents. It takes time to cultivate them slowly. It is better to learn from the strengths of foreigners and then defeat them, and learn and cultivate them while using them.
By the way, there is a movie called "The Fortress" that will be released in the summer this year. I heard that the promotional slogan is "The Light of Chinese Science Fiction Movies" and "A Science Fiction Movie Standing on the Shoulders of "The Wandering Earth"".
Xia Yu didn't know whether it was true or not, but he felt something was wrong after watching the trailer. The setting of two female protagonists is not popular these days. Let's see how much the box office will be!
"That's going to cost a lot of money!"
When talking about this topic, Musk's eyes lit up.
It’s a shame to say that Xia Yu has always claimed to be the poorest rich man, but Musk, who is worth more than him, seems to be poorer. So far, he still doesn’t have a super yacht of his own.
Unlike old Larry who knows how to enjoy life, Musk is a complete workaholic. He enjoys the pleasure brought by overtime, but who doesn’t like yachts!
Unfortunately, there is no money to buy it, and the money has to be saved for launching rockets. Private aerospace is not an ordinary money-burning industry. Without a system to back it up, one really has to live frugally. Retired second-hand rockets continue to be tested, and the fairings that have been soaked in water are dried and reused. Tesla's shares have been diluted to more than 20%, and if they are sold to other companies, they will all belong to others.
Many factors have contributed to Musk's current "embarrassment". Xia Yu would not be surprised if news broke one day that he was selling houses to raise money. However, it is impossible for him to sympathize with him. Compared with others, he is the real poor guy, who just has more cash flow.
PS: In the real world, Tesla and CATL only reached a formal cooperation relationship in 2020. Before that, the Chinese market used LG Chem batteries.
