Hollywood Hunter

Chapter 839 American Idol

On the same day when the two little guys were born, Daenerys produced "Psycho Game" directed by David Finch in North America. The 2453 block screen was opened. The word of mouth after the film was far less than "Seven Deadly Sins", integrated media The score is only 7.3 points.

From August 18 to August 24, in the first week of painting, "Psycho Game" received only $19.23 million in seven days.

neither warm nor hot.

Many Hollywood directors can't escape the "second grade effect" after becoming famous. "Seven Deadly Sins" is not the first film directed by David Finch, but it is a famous work. Then, "Mental Game" became a Waterloo. .After the opening of the box office, the next week of August 25 to August 31, "Mental Games" fell by 39%, with only 11.56 million US dollars left at the box office. After two weeks of release, the cumulative box office of the film was 30.79 million US dollars.

The production cost of US$50 million, the announcement of US$30 million, and the local box office of about US$50 million are expected to basically lock Daenerys Entertainment’s 1995 most failed movie.Based on the calculation of the global box office of US$100 million, which is equivalent to doubling the local area, Daenerys Entertainment cannot even recover the production cost of US$50 million, and can only expect the performance of subsequent channels.

The failure of David Finch's new film was expected by Simon, and there was a bit of intention in it.

This summer period, or, from the beginning of 1995 to the present, Daenerys Entertainment has been overwhelming the entire Hollywood. It is at the end of the summer period, and suddenly a follower is planted, which is a dose for everyone. Relax your heartstrings.

It is always easier for people to see what they want to see.

Daenerys Entertainment will also fail, which makes everyone feel a lot better.

As a filmmaker on Simon’s retention list, the failure of a film will not affect the cooperation between David Finch and Daenerys Entertainment. Before the release of "Psycho Game", Daenerys had already begun to work with Finch. Discussing the cooperation of the next film, this contact has not been interrupted by the loss of "Mental Game".

With the release of "Mental Games", this summer file also entered the final stage.

Simon accompanied Sofia and the two little guys in Rome until September 2, the first stop to Venice.

This year's Venice Film Festival opened on August 30.

Daenerys Entertainment has a total of two films shortlisted for the main competition this year, including the new film "Suspect" by black director Spike Lee and the second director's work "72 Hours of Life and Death" by Sean Pan, two projects All are high-end investment.

Simon rushed to Venice mainly to participate in a theme event held by Gaomen Pictures on Saturday night. The next day was Sunday, and he continued to stay for a day, contacting the feelings with a group of filmmakers, and discussing some projects by the way until He left on Monday and hurried to Milan.

The autumn fashion week of 1995 will open on September 15th. In the order of New York, London, Paris, and Milan, the opening of Milan Fashion Week will wait until the end of October. However, the brands of Melisandre are a few months ago. I started preparing for the big show of Fashion Week.

The Frini district in the eastern suburbs of Milan.

An abandoned factory originally purchased here has been upgraded to Melisandre’s Milan headquarters.

In addition to Gucci, Versace, which was acquired last year as a brand of Melisandre, also opened an office here.

Simon deterred the Italian gang last year with a fierce earthquake, and the shadow behind the Versace brand disappeared. Gianni Versace traveled to Italy no longer so cautiously. Recently, he has been personally preparing for the brand show next month in Milan.

Today happened to be a trial rehearsal for the Versace show.

Originally just a trial installation, after Simon arrived, Versace specially arranged a rehearsal.As the fashion season approached, the models' schedules were in a hurry. When they learned that Westeros appeared, no one resisted, but they all eagerly tried.

In the huge old factory renovation LOFT, only a few people such as Simone and Sofia’s deputy Angela Alenz were on the T stage.

After a moment of waiting, a bit of lively music sounded in classical music, and the model after dressing began to emerge.

This year's opening is Yasmine Gary.

Simon appeared here today, mainly because Yao Jing hopes she can come and see.

It has been determined that I will step down as a Victoria's Secret Angel spokesperson. Yao Jing plans to retire after completing this year's autumn fashion show. Milan is the last stop of autumn fashion week. Versace's big show is just behind Gucci, so it has become a closed mountain. Make.

Naka Allman will also participate in this big show.

However, Ji Jing did not plan to retire so early, but plans to gradually reduce work in the future.

Mainly because of the cultural background of the two women.

Yasmin is a Pakistani. When he first chose to work in modeling, he had been strongly opposed by his family. If it was not a girl’s family, it would be quite open, and it would be possible to be arrested and killed.Now, not only has he achieved fame, relying on the help of Simon's lover, but also accumulated a rich net worth, naturally there is no need to show his head again.

Relatively speaking, the legs from Germany do not have such concerns.

I’m only 24 years old this year for two years. Even if I quit my job completely now, the assets under my name are enough to live a lifetime with nourishment. However, if a person has not been working and only enjoying life, it is actually very abnormal, so Naka intends to continue Active on the T stage for several years.

Yasmin chose to retire rather than retire.

The two women began to take MBA courses under the recommendation of Simon since last year. After retiring Yao Jing, they plan to move to San Francisco. While continuing their MBA courses, they will help on Instagram while completing their studies and accumulating enough experience before considering doing something else.As a partner, Najia also intends to live in Silicon Valley in the future, leaving only when working.

The design of the first theme of the opening is mainly based on the retro-style exposed navel and mini skirt.

With Yasmin's figure, a white blouse and a black mini skirt, it just reveals a slender waist that fits in a grip. It complements each other, and the style of Gu Pan's look is even more sultry, even if he is already very familiar, he is on the stage The girl's gaze glanced over, still made people feel involuntarily.

It's not hard to imagine how many people will regret the girl's retirement.

Because it is a temporary rehearsal, it has not finished all themes. Otherwise, it may take about half an hour to calculate the type of suit, swimwear, leisure, etc.

On the T stage, the rehearsal of about 10 minutes ended, and a group of big goblins hugged directly to Simon on the stage stand, so that Jenny Versace, who wanted to come and greet Simon, could only be with other Melisandre who escaped A group of executives are guarding the periphery.

Waist, legs, and legs are reluctant to occupy the position around Simon, asking about the latest things.

The two women also vaguely heard about Sofia’s pregnancy, but they were unclear about the woman’s recent birth. Simon would not talk about it to them, but just talked about the Venice Film Festival on the weekend.

Models who do not want to be actors are not good models.

Waist, leg, and leg are not needed in this regard. Carla Bruni, who grabbed Simon’s feet, grabbed the conversation without any trace, asking Simon if he could introduce her to the movie. It’s also Simon’s, and he’s responsible.

It is only the beginning of Elite's change to become a model agency under the Westeros system.Carla Bruni said it was not wrong.

During this time, Elite continued to change dramatically.

After getting things done in North America, Grace began to confiscate the power of the overseas branch, and directly expelled many executives who were not willing to surrender power. It is one of the Elite officials who have been cleared the portal.

This former John Casablanca has big names such as Carla Bruni and Claudia Schiff.

In the face of Grace's eviction, Gerald Mali had originally wanted to lead a group of customers to become independent portals. In other cases, the other party would have a great chance of success in doing so.Unfortunately, it turned out that Gerald Mali ended up almost leaving the house, not to mention Carla Bruni and Claudia Schiff, the former Elite executive even some ordinary customers who have not yet gained fame. Failed to bring it.

No girl in this circle will be too stupid.

Behind the current Elite, the entire Westeros system, whether it’s Melissa’s fashion resources or Daenerys’ media resources, can only let other competitors look up. In this case, everyone will follow one if they are crazy. Executives who may have been blocked by the Westeros system went on to become independent portals.

After integration, most of Elite's supermodel contracts are now directly transferred to Grace's name, including Kara Bruni and Claudia Schiffer in Europe.

Behind Grace, it was Simon directly.

It's not wrong to say that a'food demon' is now Simon's.

Responsible is definitely not responsible.

It was almost noon, and Simon was very generous in saying that he could invite everyone to dinner.

The two girls still have work in the afternoon. Simon also stayed in Milan for a day, and by the way, learned about the operation status of Melisandre’s brands, and set off for New York the next morning.

Because New York Fashion Week opened first, it brought along a group of goblins.

During Simon’s departure from North America, the federal government review of the merger of Daenerys and the Metropolitan ABC also came to an end. At present, only the details of some possible media regulations are negotiated. It is expected that the Ministry of Justice and other departments will obtain the by.

Now that the merger has been finalized, Daenerys and ABC have also begun a deeper cooperation.

The focus of the recent cooperation between the two companies is the music reality show "American Idol".

Simon has been personally involved in the planning of this project since the beginning of the year. After Daenerys and the Metropolitan ABC negotiated a merger agreement, the television department officially signed the "American Idol" contract with ABC Television Network and started production.

This reality show basically planned with reference to the original in Simon's memory.

The difference is just the selection of several judges.

Simon Cowell, who used to be the mainstay of "American Idol", has not reappeared. This producer is still only an unknown pawn in the British music session. Although he has been in the industry for many years, the history of the West City boy was not popular until 1999 when he personally built it. Can be considered as a leader, and with the subsequent'Pop Idol' series skyrocketed.

After all, music reality shows are just reality shows.

The core is still'performance'.

Simon this time finalized the strategy of the four judges in the planning stage, and the role setting was clear.

A professional music producer, harsh, poisonous, but absolutely professional.

A middle-aged female singer with a charming charm, acting as an intimate sister.

A black rapper is politically correct.

A young female singer under the age of 30, preferably Latino, beautiful and wild, acts as a vase to attract the attention of young audiences.

Because the industry itself is very mature, the most important thing in the US record industry is outstanding musicians.

With the success stories of reality shows such as "Who Will Be a Millionaire" and "Survivor", realizing the importance of Daenerys Entertainment to "American Idol", many big-name musicians have taken the initiative to recommend themselves, relying on creating "backstreet" Barry Weiss, who had a strong foothold in Daenerys Records, was interested in the role of the music producer, but was vetoed by Simon himself.

Barry Weiss is now cultivating potential young singers such as Britney Spears, Critisna Aguilera and Justin Timberlake who were dug from the Mickey Mouse Club. Simon does not want this former American nine The godfather of the Teen-Pop field of the 1930s ran for a reality show.

The final choice was David Kruger, the producer of Daenerys Records who helped the Backstreet Boys Group create the first best-selling album. This middle-aged man was about 40 years old when Barry Weiss switched from Jive Records. The powerful assistant he brought, after several rehearsals and auditions, Simon's performance on the stage made Simon very satisfied.

The black rapper, Simon personally selected the famous Jay-z in his memory. This 36-year-old Jay-z has been in the rap circle for many years, but now is just an unknown pawn who has just released his own single, but the other party is a top The potential of hip-hop musicians has already been revealed.

As a condition of joining "Popular Idol", Jay-Z signed a 10-year contract with Daenerys Records.

Next, Daenerys Records will give the other party enough resources. As for the other party as a judge of "Pop Idol", how far can he go in the music circle to see his luck.

The two female judges,'Sister Zhixin', about 40 years old, after repeated negotiations, finally signed Cher.

This is also the biggest card of the four judges.

Cher was not only one of the hottest singers in North America in the 1960s and 1970s, but also one of the more successful singer-songwriters. In 1987, she won the Oscar-winning crown with "The Moonlight".

However, in the 1990s, Cher's popularity began to decline severely, especially after the blockbuster movie era opened.

The most important reason for Cher to become a judge is actually because she is a signed singer under Daenerys Records. Sheer was an early potential Geffen Records subsidiary. Geffen Records was acquired by Universal Records and Universal Parent Company MCA was again awarded by Dan Acquired by Nellis Entertainment, it was finally transferred to the reorganized Dannilis Records.

Of course, compared to the popular guns and roses and backstreet boys, now Cher has more glory than ever.

After all, it is a big name.

The two sides finalized the details from the initial contact and spent a full three months. Cher also took away the first quarter salary of $8 million higher than the sum of the other three judges. The agreement signed a total of three quarters. Next Each quarter can also enjoy a maximum salary increase of 25 according to the specific situation.

After selecting the last vase, Simon finally gave it to Jennifer Lopez.

Like JayZ now, this Simon had always wondered how the Latin queen was getting hot. It was only a foil. Of course, the premise is also to sign a 10-year contract with Daenerys Records.
