Hollywood Hunter

Probably I felt someone looking at me. The girl leaning on Simon turned her head and looked over. Even Simon also noticed Barbara Brockley.

Barbara Brockley had to temporarily give up guessing the identity of a girl with some baby fat on Simon's face and walked over to say hello.Jonathan Friedman and Kim Carey said something. The actor got up and left, and Barbara took a seat in the position vacated by the other side.

Simon didn't introduce the identity of the girl next to him. After Barbara Brockley sat down, he looked at it curiously, but the man didn't seem to notice her inquiring gaze, and continued to talk with Jonathan Fur on the single sofa on the other side. Reedman said: "Clinton won elections that he didn't think he would win. George Bush lost the presidential throne that he didn't think he would lose, so there will be all kinds of breaking things in the past two years. The Clinton family is too shallow, and the Bush family has begun to pave the way for the next generation."

Jonathan received: "Unsurprisingly, Bush Jr. can easily be elected governor of Texas next month."

Simon laughed: "Of course, Texas is the home base of the Bush family. In fact, from this point you can also see the biggest disadvantage of the Clinton family. Do you know what it is?"

Jonathan thought about it and said: "On the basis of the foundation, the Clinton family has been operating in Arkansas for more than 20 years and should not be much worse than the Bush family."

Simon shook his head and said: "There is too much difference. Arkansas is just a state with a small population and an economically underdeveloped state in the middle of the Federation. There are only a few electoral votes. It is too far from Texas to be at all. As the foundation. And, the disadvantage I said is not this."

Jonathan couldn't remember this time.

Barbara Brockley felt that the two men around him must have been particularly masculine in order to deliberately ignore her existence. At this time, she couldn't help but interjected: "What is that?"

Simon turned his head to look at Barbara and quickly opened the puzzle with a smile: "No one succeeds."

Barbara Blockley is not familiar with the White House, but also knows that the Clintons have another daughter, like Chelsea, how can it be said that there is no successor.

Jonathan didn't know if Simon was referring to a rumor that Chelsea was not Clinton's birth, but he probably also understood something. "Simon, it seems that you are very optimistic about the Clintons."

Simon nodded and said: "Of course, although the White House is now full of scandals, Clinton's ruling ideas on economic policy are not wrong, and the possibility of re-election is very high. The Clintons are very capable, and after eight years of operation, a federal Brand new political giant. Unfortunately, this political giant only has a very mediocre daughter. Well, it is said that it is not yet biological."

Barbara Brockley retorted: "Mr. Westeros, I think your idea is too biased. A person should pay more attention to realizing his own value in life, rather than narrow narrow blood lineage."

Simon looked at it with a smile and said, "Barbara, in the future you will understand that a person can only be a victor if he has lived long enough to realize his own value. However, our life is limited, Therefore, to pass on the blood as much as possible, it is the most important method to realize its own value. At that time, Morgan and Rockefeller were almost ruled in the United States. The Rockefeller family is still strong because of the large number of descendants. No one succeeds, and everything that John Morgan once created has nothing to do with the Morgan family now. If you are John Morgan, would you feel a little sorry?"

Barbara Brockley is a celibate. She is 34 years old this year, but she has no fixed boyfriend. She belongs to the rare flower princess type of women. This is also a piece of Albert Brockley who has been ill. Heart disease.In fact, just like Monica’s parents who have been worrying about the marriage of their children all the time in “Friends”, no matter in Eastern or Western society, some of the most basic concepts are the same,

At this point, the argument of a certain guy stopped, and when I remembered the occasional nagging of my father in the bed, Barbara Bullock even had some looseness in his heart.

However, Barbara responded quickly, looked at Simon, and teased: "Mr. Westero, I suddenly feel that you are a bit like an antique. Are you really only 26 years old?"

"Oh, I'll count," Simon raised a hand and twisted it a few times. It didn't seem to be enough. Then he caught the slender hand next to the vase and counted it again. "All together, I probably, um, 550 Years old."

Barbara Blockley rolled his eyes.

Watching a young man from a penniless to a wealthy enemy now, Jonathan Friedman listened to Simon's seemingly joke, his eyes flickered slightly.Probably, only a 550-year-old weird existence can create a miracle like Westeros in just eight years.

Thinking of this, Jonathan couldn't help but ask: "Simon, Forbes, have you got the list data in advance here?"

Today is October 7, Friday, the new "Forbes" US 400 rich list is released next Monday. According to the practice, many media and rich people can actually get Forbes list data in advance in private.

Simon did not conceal, said: "In fact, this is the number of media reports during this time."

Of course, the two girls around knew the Forbes list, and at this moment, they couldn't help raising their ears.

Jonathan listened to Simon's words and thought for a while, then tentatively said: "300 billion dollars."

Simon nodded.

In the past few years of Forbes list data, Simon has not intervened. As the number of personal wealth continues to increase, he also has to intervene.

Just like this time.

The personal net worth of $300 billion is actually the result of negotiations between the Westeros family and the Forbes Group.Obviously it is a very rough statistic, and it is not too in line with Forbes' previous careful and cautious approach.

In fact, Forbes certainly has another relatively accurate number.

However, whether it exceeds 300 billion US dollars or is lower than this number, it is not what Simon wants to see.

Mainly because of public psychological considerations.

The ultimate goal of this kind of mental manipulation is still not to hope that the Westeros family will attract more public attention.

Simple analogy,'a 300-meter-high building','a 92-story glass-reinforced steel building at 312 meters high in Manhattan', which one can give people more imaginative space, it goes without saying.Therefore, not only is the figure of 300 billion US dollars, in the "Forbes" magazine next Monday, the statistics on the figure of 300 billion US dollars will also not be as specific as in the past.

As for how much money Simon currently has, Janet just happened to have a more detailed statistics recently, but this number will not be released by Simon anyway.

I have seen the figure of 300 billion US dollars in many media in advance. When the girl and Barbara Brockley around Simon heard this, they immediately lost their interest in further investigation, and Jonathan, who knew something, was also interested. Did not continue to question.

I was running around a while ago, but it's no serious thing to come here today, but just communicate and connect with each other everyday.

For many people who were similar before the start, Simon is indeed unlikely to contact him as often as before, but as long as there is time, he will not refuse to meet several times occasionally.

Of course, it's not all right.

The main reason is that Jonathan recently dug Kim Carey from the small brokerage company where he was before and became an artist under the WMA. Today, he specifically called out to people, hoping that Simon can let him go, and after a few months, I saw Dan With the strength of Nellys Entertainment, Kim Carey is completely free of the restlessness that was caused by the explosion of "Detective Aircraft Head".

Jonathan greeted Simon before digging, and Simon didn't bother with a small person.

In fact, Simon doesn’t care about the big-line cafes in Hollywood who generally have a bit of a style of ambition, and they don’t refuse to cooperate with each other. The premise is that they must do what a filmmaker should have, otherwise, don’t say you Simon is a superstar who has only been in power for many years, even if he is a veteran big man who has been in Hollywood for many years, Simon is not unprepared.

In the past two years, Dustin Hoffman and Tom Cruise have basically withdrawn from mainstream Hollywood vision.

After talking about some topics, Simon noticed that Barbara Brockley looked at the vase next to her again, finally satisfied her curiosity, and introduced with a smile: "Barbara, this is Charlize Theron. Cha Li, this is Barbara Brockley, don't underestimate her. The Brockley family has been the producer of the 007 series for so many years. Barbara's father has retired, and she will be in charge of this series in the future. "

Charlize Theron?

Barbara Brockley looked for a moment in her mind, and there was no information about the girl, but she reached out politely and shook hands with the other party.

After introducing the two, Simon patted Charlize on the waist and said, "So, Charlie, let Barbara take you to meet some guests. I will call you when I leave."

Barbara Blockley suddenly wanted to roll her eyes.

She was a little unfamiliar with Hollywood, and just now Shirley Lansing helped her introduce guests.

However, both women also understood that the men must have some topics that they did not want them to hear, and took the initiative to get up.

Jonathan glanced at the back of the two women who left and smiled: "Paul also complained to me yesterday that she was very optimistic about this girl, and you were going to go."

The "Paul" Jonathan said was Paul Van Hoeven.

Although Paul Van Hoeven failed to direct "Instinct" because of Simon's big butterfly, the Dutch veteran director still ranks among the top Hollywood directors with the best-selling films such as "Mechanics" and "Complete Memories". .

The Hollywood brokerage industry has continuously changed in recent years. Paul Van Hoven at ICM was dug up by WMA two years ago. He is currently preparing a large-scale song and dance film. Simon just remembers that the original time and space The middle part can be described as the infamous "Dancing Girl".

In the original time and space, this large-scale film directly rated as NC-17 cost $45 million. Although its controversy is no less than Instinct, it did not replicate the success of Instinct. After the release, the box office failed. At the same time, even starring Elizabeth Berkeley was also implicated, and was directly swept away by the brokerage company.

Simon happened to see that the Carlock investment plan was also being prepared by Paramount just like that of "Cutting Throat Island" a few days ago. Out of curiosity, people found some information and happened to see a certain The actress named Charlize Theron was among the last few starring candidates.

Now that I have met, I will come over easily.

South African Diamonds is only 19 years old this year. The baby fat left on the face is not too in line with Simon's aesthetic, but it is good to raise them for a few years.

Simon has also given girls choices before, and if she wants the heroine of Paul Van Hoeven's new film, he just needs to say hello.Otherwise, because of her junior qualifications, Simon will only arrange some small roles for her in some movies in the next few years. Whether she can get ahead or not depends on herself.

Although South African diamonds are young, in the end they are not stupid, and without qualifications and connections, they can also take a fight through this large-scale new film of Van Hoven. After being chosen by Simon, they chose the second path very simply.

At this point, Simon saw Jonathan this matter in advance and said: "Joe, Paul is not directly under your name, but you should also be able to see that "Dancing Girl" has no future at all, how can he be allowed to take over such a project? "

"Dancing Girl" is another script by Joe Ezethas.

Although the famous Hollywood screenwriter who is good at erotic films also missed "Instinct" because of Simon, and also had a "infantry warrior" incident with CAA in the past two years, but because of the "Lightning Dance" and other films in the 1980s The big sale is still very popular in Hollywood.

It's just that "Dancing Girl" is destined to be a turning point for Joe Ezette Haas.

Jonathan also shook his head and smiled bitterly: "The project that Paul personally liked, or the script of Ezet Haas, Carlock Pictures is willing to invest, what do you think I can do?" So, Jonathan said: " By the way, another play by Ezetehas, "Yu Yan", this story is quite good, a little bit like "Instinct" style, I let someone send you a script, have you seen it? Speaking of that, Ezetehas is joking in private. The "Instinct" that you took out when you first debuted was a bit imitating the meaning of his screenwriting style. He now imitates you again."

Simon took out the "Instinct" script in advance during the stock market crash in 1987 and staggered it for five years, so he wasn't worried about crashing. However, it is really easy to see the context of the movie style.

Simon nodded and shook his head again, saying, "I've seen it, but the reason why "Instinct" was able to sell at first was because of the controversial nature of the film, not how good the film itself was. I don't think this " "Yuyan" can replicate the topic of "Instinct"."
