Hollywood Hunter

Chapter 228 I want to try

"A 7-year loan plan with an annual interest rate of 4.25% is given, which is 0.5% lower than the annual interest rate of Lyon Credit. However, they asked Daenerys Entertainment to use 10% of the company’s shares as collateral. At the same time, Dan Nellis Entertainment has priority if it continues to carry out loan financing in the next three years. I think this plan is feasible, the company's operation is very good, and 10% of the shares will not bring the risk of control transfer. As for priority, details There is also much room for debate."

In the office of Daenerys Entertainment headquarters.

Nancy introduced the results of her work in New York. Amy listened carefully on the surface, but her thoughts were a bit off.

Outstanding ability, energetic and ambitious.

Opposite this petite woman, who was only a few years older than her, was just two months into the job, which made Amy feel a threat from a woman's instinct.Although she can't see the results of the integrated operation of the consumer products sector in a short time, the business vision and negotiation skills shown in the company's shareholding in BesTV have been clearly recognized by Simon.

It stands to reason that the board seat of Blockbuster should be Amy, but Simon gave Nancy seemingly at random, which made Amy inevitably produce some small pimples. Hope dug from Hasbro.

Perhaps, if Simon looks for someone to replace her in the future, Nancy is likely to be the best candidate.

Because of this subconscious anxiety, Amy has put more energy into her work recently, and she dare not use her power to set up obstacles for Nancy.

The collaborative cooperation between various departments of the company that Simon forced to promote was actually to avoid internal struggles in Daenerys Entertainment.If she dared to squeeze out her colleagues on purpose, it was only herself who was unlucky after Simon was discovered.Daenerys Entertainment is also different from the publicly-held public companies. As the boss, Simon can make a decision.

Thinking about it, Amy's head could not help but show Janet's smiling face at noon.

It is actually very common for top executives in Hollywood studios to scrape and consume some company interests.

At the end of the 1970s, the director of Columbia Pictures David Bergman misappropriated the company's $61,000 in funds to purchase traveler's checks. The incident was once the biggest Hollywood scandal.

Things were slammed by the media, and Bergman resigned as a result.

However, within the circle, few people criticized Bergman, but instead condemned this incident as a whistleblower, thinking that this was a big deal, and stabbing the matter to the media even smeared the entire Hollywood.

As a result of this incident, David Bergman left Colombia and remained in awe. The producer named Cliff Robertson was rejected by the entire circle, and his career was ruined.

Ron McMillan behaves just like David Bergman, and like many Hollywood studio executives.

It has been more than two years since entering this circle, neither Simon nor Janet could not know these.However, Simon allowed Janet to oust Ron McMillan out of the company, in fact he was knocking on the tiger and warned them that these company executives should not be sent to the top of other studios.

Whether it was previously mandatory to cooperate within the company to avoid infighting, or this time to regulate the company's executive behavior, it is enough to show Simon's ambition to continue to grow and develop.

Obviously, if he can't keep up with his ambitions, he can only get out.

"Amy?"

The sound across the desk interrupted Amy's distraction.

Amy recovered and sorted out her thoughts, saying: "Nancy, the 4.25% annual interest rate is really good, priority and negotiable. However, you don’t know much about Simon, he should not agree to mortgage Daenerys. Entertainment shares, and the 10% ratio is too high."

Nancy raised her eyebrows slightly, and in a blink of an eye, she roughly wanted to understand what she said: "Only the little boy will cling to his toys and never let others get involved.

"Okay," Amy smiled at the corner of her mouth and glanced at a clock on her desk. "Simon should have started working over Melbourne. I will call him to discuss this at night." thing."

Nancy glanced at the row of mini electronic clocks on Amy’s desktop. The three clocks showed the time of Los Angeles, New York and Melbourne, and immediately decided to wait for the assistant to buy a few clocks on his desk. But he said: "Let me call him. And, Amy, I think you should be stronger in front of him, don't always be so obedient."

Amy nodded, not arguing with Nancy about the call, and instead said: "He is our boss."

Melbourne.

This is already the second day of the filming of Batman.

Film shooting can never be regarded as a fun job. The more popular the blockbuster is on the screen, the more cumbersome and boring the shooting process is.Moreover, the large-scale crew mobilizes, and the cost of tens of millions of dollars every day is also a strong pressure for the main creator.

"Batman" has a very loose budget, but Simon still has to face various problems.

Just two days after the filming began, the crew ushered in a very difficult problem-confidentiality work.

Disney did not forcibly push "Who Framed Rabbit Roger" to the annual crown by buying the box office, and the box office of "Rainman" has just been exerted, so "Pulp Fiction" is still at the annual box office in 1988 Championship position.

"Roller Run" and "Pulp Fiction" have two consecutive films and two consecutive annual titles. Even if there is no series of auras such as billions of dollars of wealth, Simon's new film is definitely the most concerned about by the media.

The materials exposed in the early stage of "Batman" are pitiful. With the film's opening, almost all mainstream media around the world sent reporters to Melbourne. There are also a large number of paparazzi and die-hard fans of the "Batman" comics.

Therefore, yesterday was only one day of shooting, and many studio photos have appeared in various gossip tabloids.

The crew filmed as usual today, but producer Joe Silvo was busy publishing a "copyright statement" in the mainstream media and enacting stricter confidentiality measures.

If it's just a normal studio photo, it's not a big deal if it is exposed.But when it comes to details such as the bat car, the bat model, the actor's modeling, and even the movie script, once exposed, it will definitely have a serious impact on the movie.

Daenerys Entertainment has previously released the final makeup photo of'Batman'. Other'Catwoman','Black Mask','Batcar' and'Bat Moto' shapes are still under confidentiality. Announcement strategy will be published in due course.

The audience needs a sense of mystery and freshness. If the information is seen in advance, the rhythm of the film will be disrupted.

Fortunately, when it comes to movie props and starring styles, these are copyrighted.

The crew solemnly issued a "copyright statement" through the media. As long as most regular media do not want to provoke lawsuits, they will not rashly publish it even if they get related studio photos.Of course, some unscrupulous tabloids that do not care about being sued are not included, and the crew can only take a two-pronged approach to prevent it through stricter confidentiality measures.

In order to blend in with the crew, the film and drama part of the film was mainly filmed in the last two weeks.If you don't consider the surrounding disturbances, everything seems to be in order.

Australia does not have consultations such as strict working time restrictions supported by strong domestic unions in the United States. However, Simon did not allow the crew to work overtime. Work started at 9 am and work was closed on time at 5 pm.

Today I filmed several scenes of the'black mask' Roman Siennis family company janus cosmetics company headquarters, located in a 30-story building next to the Yarra River in central Melbourne.

Five o'clock in the afternoon.

The day's work ended on time, and the crew of the crew all closed their jobs. The director assistant hired by Simon after he came to Melbourne took the initiative to take the thick director desk.

Simon took over Taiben and temporarily stopped talking to Joe Silvo. While looking at Taiben, he asked the 27-year-old young man with a round face and messy hair beside him, "How do you feel, Peter?"

The young man is called Peter Jackson.

That's right, it was Peter Jackson who later shot the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy.

Now Peter Jackson is only twenty-eight years old. Although his face is a little round, he is far from the big fat man.A few years ago, Peter Jackson and a group of friends just used his free time to complete his first movie "Cosmos", but it didn't cause much response.

Hearing that "Batman" is about to be filmed in Melbourne, and that some local filmmakers will be hired, even though it is New Zealander, Peter Jackson is still excited to come here to apply.

The crew originally looked down on this young man who just shot an unknown cult film. After Peter Jackson was willing to accept even a handy job, he got a field job as expected.

Simon arrived in Melbourne and found the other party by accident. After some conversation, Jackson was promoted from field affairs to the position of his director's assistant.

Although he was seven years older than the young man in front of him, Peter Jackson was still somewhat restrained in the face of Simon.

If it is true feelings, he feels that the Hollywood crew is too wasteful, but the cost of these two days is enough to shoot a few more "Cosmos".However, he certainly wouldn't tell the truth, just said: "Very good, Simon."

Simon just smiled, not caring about Peter Jackson's restraint and caution.

In my memory, Peter Jackson has always been a very smooth person, not as sharp as the usual Hollywood filmmakers.In fact, it is also easy to understand that it is impossible to break into the Hollywood from a small New Zealand without letting go of the restraint and pride of the filmmaker.

Now that Peter Jackson has been swept to his side, Simon naturally has a suggestion of support, but he does not intend to raise seedlings.

Opportunities will be given to each other, the key is to see Jackson's own efforts.

Feel free to chat, check some of today's work records, and confirm that they are correct. Simon shouted several of the film's main creators to discuss the work arrangements for tomorrow, and everyone dispersed.

The Batman crew stayed in a three-star hotel called Kendale in Collingwood, northwest of the city.

Although Janet’s father wanted Simon to live in Johnston’s manor, Simon did not want to travel long distances every day. The hotel was already packed, so he chose to live with the crew.

Back at the Kendale Hotel, Simon had just walked into the lobby, and Jennifer walked over with Sophia Fissi, and the two women followed some others.

Simon and Sofia greeted each other and listened to the women introduce others one by one, only to leave the two women temporarily.

The three of them took the elevator to Simon's suite on the sixth floor. Jennifer took the initiative to go to the bedroom to help Simon find suitable clothes. In the evening, he had to entertain those who just had dinner.Because of the need to prevent the Plaza Hotel from happening again, Simon now has Jennifer to take care of all the clothes, food, housing, and transportation of the house. Even the servant who helped Simon arrange the room was sent by the Johnston family.

After a busy day, Simon sat down on the sofa, leaning tiredly on the back of the chair.

Sophia paused, went to help Simon through the coffee, and brought it to the man before sitting down on the sofa next to him, saying: "I think this is a good opportunity for Gucci. The Gucci founder was founded in 1983. After the death of Rudolf Gucci, the youngest son of the man, the Gucci family has been in civil strife. In order to compete with his uncle for control of Gucci, Rudolf Gucci's son even sent the other party to prison by way of reporting. Now, Gucci Company It has become a mess. Last year, an investment company in the Middle East tried to acquire Gucci’s shares, but the final price was not discussed. Now, Rudolf Gucci’s son has also been frozen by the Italian court because of a brand dispute with other people in the family. Now that Gucci is in a bad mood, many family members have intentionally sold Gucci’s shares. We now make an offer and may even get Gucci’s absolute controlling stake.”

Simon held the coffee and listened to the woman, and asked, "How much do you think it takes to hold Gucci?"

"Probably, $135 million," Sofia said. "Gucci has more than 100 specialty stores in Europe and North America, and their product line is also very complete. If it is not family fighting, such a price tag is definitely impossible."

Simon looked at the woman and said, "Do not say this for 135 million dollars. You originally told me that you just wanted to start with the wine business first. Now, are you confident to take care of this company?"

Sophia looked at Simon without looking guilty and nodded, "I want to try."

"It's not enough to try a sentence," Simon said: "$135 million is nothing to me, but you need to know how many people in this world cry and yell and can't get 1.35. One hundred million U.S. dollars."
