New York 1988

Chapter 98 Victoria's Gift (Six Thousand Chapters Please Subscribe)
The five people reached an agreement, and Raymond and the others secretly prepared to go.

Han Sheng went upstairs directly.

Victoria was taking a bath in the hot spring pool on the second floor, drinking red wine and listening to music.

Because at home, her body is clean at this time, so, as the water waves in the hot spring pool roll, my good guy, it is even more choppy, almost to the point where the waves are overwhelming.

Han Sheng looked greedy, he smiled and moved forward.

Victoria immediately covered the headlights with one hand, giggled and splashed water, and said coquettishly, "Go away, you are not allowed to come in, you stink to death!"

Han Sheng shouted, "Who said that, I'm clean, even a little fragrant, if you don't believe me, smell it!"

Who knew Victoria glared, "Xiang, which woman did you get this from!"

Well, you won, and you played too unconventionally.

Han Sheng was speechless, but his face was even thicker. It would be impossible not to let him in. He acted quickly, and then jumped directly into the pool amid Victoria's screams covering his eyes in shame.

How else can I say that this house is as expensive as it is expensive?

For example, the warm water bath specially made in the house is really a luxury, especially when there are beauties around.

"Don't come here, don't come here!" Victoria was obviously very happy, she didn't cover the headlights at all, just giggled and poured water on him, and then ran away when he got close , ran away and started splashing water again.

Han Sheng also deliberately didn't catch up with her, and kept playing with her, and only held her in his arms when she had finished playing and had no strength left.

Victoria was also very satisfied with the way he played with him just now, and after feeding him a sip of red wine, she said, "How much money did you take today?"

"3145 million!" Han Sheng told her everything.

"Wow!" Even though the sales around Victoria are super popular, I can't help being a little surprised. It's very simple. Han Sheng only takes the least part, and the big ones are with Warner and Michael Jackson.

"Well, if you count your advance payment, you can actually get more than 4000 million, and then, Warner and Michael can get more than 8000 million or even nearly [-] million!"

"And this is just the first payment for your previous three records!"

Victoria couldn't help but slap her mouth, "No wonder you say that you kings of the music industry are making more money than those superstar actors. You're not making money, you're just robbing banks!"

Han Sheng smiled, "It's not that exaggerated, because the first settlement should be the most, and it may account for about half or more of the album's sales, and the remaining half of the sales will take more than ten or 20 years. time……!"

"That's great!" Victoria curled her lips coquettishly, "Let's not talk about your first album, your second album only needs to maintain the level of the first one. At that time, only the distributor of Warner If it is successful, you can get at least [-]% of the profit, that doesn't mean you can earn at least [-] to [-] million from an album.

No wonder, this is why you opened your mouth and had the courage to tell Warner that the record company is worth a billion? "

He nodded in self-concern, "If that's the case, one billion is really too little, at least two billion!"

Han Sheng said happily, "Then you now know that you exchanged this villa for my 20.00% equity in the record company and made a lot of money!"

"Hmph, that's my cleverness!"

Victoria said arrogantly, and even gave him a light thump, "Don't try to change the subject, you've already received your money today, and my reward!"

Naturally, the reward does not refer to the part of the interest that should be shared between the 30.00% equity of the brokerage company and the 20.00% equity of the record company that she owns.

It was the gift she should have as his woman.

Han Sheng had been prepared for a long time, picked up the pants by the bath, took out a jewelry box from his pocket, opened it, and inside was a blue lotus-like necklace inlaid with blue gemstones, the brand was Bulgari.

Under the light and water, it looks especially crystal clear and bright.

"It's so beautiful!" Victoria fell in love with him immediately, glanced at him, but pouted her lips deliberately, "Your vision is just average!"

"Your words make people sad, I picked this global limited edition for you after nearly two hours of picking, and they opened the warehouse, and their manager annoyed me so much...! "

"Really!" It's a favorite of limited editions.

Victoria beamed, then picked it up proudly, "Put it on for me!"

This is a benefit, and Han Sheng immediately obediently complied.

After wearing it, the pendant just falls in the middle of the headlights of the car, it is like a blue water lotus blooming in the white headlights, it is a breathtaking beauty.

Anyway, Han Sheng didn't hold back, just bowed his head and gnawed!
"Hate, ah...!"

……

Both novels and records have made a lot of money, and movies naturally cannot be pulled down.

Early the next morning, after serving Princess Victoria at home and having breakfast, Han Sheng went directly to Spielberg's home. Today, they wanted to chat about the official approval of the "Jurassic Park" project.

When Han Sheng arrived, there were already two other people in the room.

He actually knew them all, but Spielberg naturally didn't know. He grabbed his arm affectionately and introduced him one by one: "This is director Lucas. Although you haven't seen it, you must have seen it from TV and newspapers." I've seen it!"

"Of course, is there anyone in this country who doesn't know about "Star Wars"!" Han Sheng smiled and complimented, and then greeted: "Hello, Director Lucas, it's an honor to meet you!"

"Hello, Vincent!" Lucas said very politely and humorously, "I always thought you would apply for USC, but who knew you went to Stanford!"

Han Sheng smiled, "If you are still in school, I will definitely consider it, but it is not too late, I hope to have the honor to learn from you how to make a great work like "Star Wars"!"

Everyone likes to be praised, especially if the person who praises you is still a good guy.

Lucas just laughed, "You can really talk, kid!"

Spielberg smiled and said, "Let me just say, he doesn't look like a kid under 16 at all!"

Then, after exchanging pleasantries here, I started to introduce another lady.

"This is Kathleen Kennedy, my best partner and the best producer I've ever worked with!"

"Nice to meet you, Ms. Kennedy," Han Sheng said with a smile, "You have always been my idol in the producer industry!"

"Really?" Catherine obviously didn't believe it.

She didn't think Han Sheng would know her, or even know about her, after all, it was only the first time they met.

"It has to be, it's your first time as a producer that produced a great film like "E·T"!" Han Sheng talked about the other party's resume in detail.

Catherine really laughed now, "You know a lot, young man!"

"I still have to learn a lot from you on how to be a good producer!"

Han Sheng is not flattering her, this woman is still very good as a producer.

Moreover, she is also a collateral branch of your family, and she is also married to the Machal family in the military, and her status is not low. Later, she became the president of Lucasfilm. In short, this is a very powerful woman.

The greetings at the meeting were over, and because of Han Sheng's performance, the atmosphere suddenly became harmonious, without the barrier of strangers.

So, Spielberg went straight to the point, "I've already communicated with Warner, and they are the most cooperative because of your relationship!"

The so-called most cooperative is actually willing to give Spielberg the most power.

It basically means that Warner only pays the money, and then sends people to supervise the finances and the like. Other things about shooting are basically up to Spielberg alone.

Han Sheng had no problem with this.

With the memory of the original time and space, he already knew that not only would Spielberg not screw up, but he would produce even if not the best, but definitely the most commercially successful work, so, that's enough.

So just nod and let Spielberg go on.

"The initial budget is 6000 million knives, and then Warner will invest half of it, and then I will find the other half to invest. Well, what I want to ask you now is how much you can invest!"

Han Sheng thought that this kind of money-making project should naturally invest as much as he can, so he pretended to be shy, "Um, I just got 3000 million from Warner Music yesterday!"

Good guy, you know, there are no so-called blockbuster movies with hundreds of millions of investment these days.

6000 million knives is already the most powerful super production.

Who knows that Han Sheng said 3000 million, which means that if necessary, he can vote in full.

Spielberg and the other three looked at each other in blank dismay, "Although I know your records are selling well, I didn't expect to make so much money!"

"Well, 3000 million is not necessary, but since you are willing, you can invest 1000 million in!" Spielberg still has to keep investment channels, but he probably won't pay for it himself, but will Go to the local rich man, take advantage of it and the like.

In the end, people contribute money to invest, and as for the dividends from the investment, heh, of course they put it in his own pocket.

It's not bad if you don't cheat your principal.

This approach, Hollywood has always played very slippery.

Of course, Han Sheng didn't care about this.

As for the investment amount, 1000 million is fine, so Han Sheng put on a good-natured look, "You can make the decision, anyway, this time I will listen to you!"

Look at this attitude, Spielberg really likes him more and more.

I couldn't help laughing and said: "If I really screwed up, I would feel sorry for your trust!"

"It's okay," Han Sheng laughed, "it's all 3000 million, as long as it's you, I'm fine!"

"You kid!" Spielberg was even happier.

"Then since you said so, let your agent connect with me,"

"Then, let me tell you about the general situation of the production. The producer is your idol Miss Catherine, and then the special effects will be handed over to Lucas... This is the first time we have come into contact with dinosaurs. Although I have been to the museum to understand I have gone through a lot of situations, and I have also talked with some designers and special effects artists, but there is no good or mature plan for making dinosaurs yet.

Therefore, although the project is approved, the preparatory work may be very long, and then it may take two to three years for the post-production and so on. This, you have to be mentally prepared...! "

"That is to say, even if it is successful, it will be very slow to get the benefits!"

Jews are still used to talking about interests.

Han Sheng smiled and said: "To be honest, what I value more is this learning opportunity. I hope to learn from you how to make a movie, from the pre-production to the post-production process...!"

In this case, Spielberg no longer said anything hypocritical.

……

The "Jurassic Park" thing is over, and the next thing is "When Harry Met Sally". In addition to taking advantage of the trend to make a fortune, this is more for Meg Ryan, the goblin.

In the morning, it was almost nine o'clock to pick her up, but she still hadn't woken up.

The quilt was kicked aside, the right shoulder strap of the white silk nightdress had fallen off, and the cute headlights jumped out.

At the same time, the nightdress also slipped to the waist, showing the charming scenery of the buttocks.

Han Sheng smiled and went up to pat it a little harder, "Get up, little lazy pig!"

"Who, I hate it!" It was him who realized in the next second, opened his eyes vaguely, his mind was a little numb, "You, why are you here!"

"Aren't you going to meet the crew of "When Harry Met Sally" today?" Han Sheng said angrily, "You won't tell me you forgot!"

"Ah!" Meg Ryan only reacted at this time.

But I didn't care about that, but got up and hugged him and kissed him first.

When the kiss was at its hottest, she giggled and ran away, ready to wash up.

Han Sheng grabbed her feet and dragged her to his side.

"Oh, come here, help!" Meg Ryan played happily and kicked him with a smile, "Don't come here, let me go!"

……

After finishing the work and washing, I didn't go out until after ten o'clock.

Meg Ryan was lying lazily halfway in his arms, with the wonderful aftertaste of the madness just now flowing in her body. After a while, she suddenly giggled, bit Han Sheng's ear and said, "Nicole's The filming will be over soon, when the time comes, let's go to sea on a yacht... Let me tell you, we secretly bought a lot of clothes you like!"

Han Sheng was amused, and was about to ask what kind of surprise there was, then Raymond's phone in the front passenger's seat rang, and he hung up again without saying a word after answering the call.

Turning his head, he glanced at Meg Ryan first, and when Han Sheng nodded slightly, he said, "Boss, everything is ready!"

Han Sheng nodded, then picked up the phone and made a call.

After connecting, he said to Daniel on the opposite side: "Get ready on your side, don't lose the chain!"

"Who are you looking down on!" Daniel screamed excitedly over there, "This time he is Robert Peterson, and I will let him go back!" Then he shouted: "Let's talk about it, this time If it's really a big job, you must take me to play, and I will kneel down for you, brother!"

"He still has me!" William was also yelling over there.

After Han Sheng smiled and said something about Oak, he hung up the phone.

Meg Ryan didn't intend to ask just now, but now she was a little curious, "Who is so noisy?"

"You've seen that little son of the Rosoff family!"

"Oh," Meg Ryan pursed her lips. She couldn't casually ask about that kind of son-in-law at her level, so she immediately changed the topic so as not to cause trouble.

……

When it was almost eleven o'clock, Han Sheng arrived at Castle Rock Entertainment at the appointed time. Over there, one of the founders of Castle Rock Entertainment and the director of "When Harry Met Sally" Reiner, and then the screenwriter Ai Fran was already waiting in the reception room.

It's a very small company, and the reception room is not big, about [-] to [-] square meters. Even though it has been obviously tidied up, it still feels a bit shabby.

But this is not important, what is important is that whether it is Reiner or Afron, they are all Jewish, that is to say, in this Hollywood, they are in the same group as Han Sheng.

Moreover, Spielberg had already called Reiner yesterday.

So, as soon as we met, Reiner happily shook Han Sheng's hand, "Our family's Tracy is your diehard fan, all your records, posters, photos, my God, anyway, all kinds of I bought everything in a mess...!"

Tracy is his adopted daughter, so while the guy is only 41, his adopted daughter is 24.

Oh, and Tracy later had a small role as Emily in When Harry Met Sally.

"I really dare not tell her that you are coming today, otherwise she will pester you crazily, and then we won't be able to talk about things!"

"You should let her come, maybe now, we can have lunch together!" Han Sheng replied with a smile, "Isn't it time for lunch now?"

"Is it really possible?" Reiner obviously dotes on this adopted daughter.

On the other hand, Ai Fulun laughed and joked, "Aren't you afraid that your daughter will be cheated by Vincent?"

"Ha, I even forgot that there is a beautiful woman beside me," Han Sheng cheerfully hugged her, "Well, maybe I should praise your talent more, no, it should be both talent and beauty!"

"Okay, kid, I'm past the age of being ecstasy soup by little boys!" Already 47-year-old Averon said so, but the smile on his face was very bright.

Honestly, at this moment, being Jewish played the biggest role.Because of this identity, the big guys are destined to belong to the same group and the same camp, so even if they are a little strange when they meet for the first time, they quickly become warm.

As it happens, Reiner and Efron were both born in New York.

Especially Ephron, who was born on Hearst Avenue, even though he soon moved to Los Angeles with his parents, he still has a deep impression on that side.

"Cheese, you might have been better when you were born," Ephron said of Hearst Street, obviously opening up the topic. "The year I was born was called a dark time, and it was 'five o'clock. District'ah, it's not a lie at all, even if you are sitting at home, someone may suddenly rush in and shoot you.

As for being shot and killed casually on the street, it happens many times every day...! "

"I heard something from my mother!" Han Sheng shrugged, "She's a little younger than you!"

Afron interrupted him with a smile, "No, child, when your mother was born, we had already won the victory in Europe, and the country's order had begun to be sorted out. At that time, the war was going on, and the country itself was in a state of chaos. Chaos, so, do you know what I mean, the country itself is in chaos, and there is no time or energy to deal with some dark things... So, crime was more rampant at that time than after your mother was born! "

Han Sheng smiled. This lady is really as rumored: "Very assertive."

However, after finally chatting, and getting a little more familiar with each other, it is easy to make people get closer and the atmosphere is more harmonious.

Next, they talked about some old things in New York, and Reiner took the initiative to bring the topic down to the real thing.

"Yesterday, Mr. Spielberg has already called me, so I will introduce the project "When Harry Met Sally". Well, because the span of time and space is relatively large, there are so many scenes. That's why the budget will be much higher than the average romantic comedy...!"

"I heard that the budget of "Flying Childhood" that you cooperated with Warner is 1000 million US dollars?"

"Recently added another 100 million!" Han Sheng answered.

"Well, how should I put it, an ordinary love movie is indeed around 1000 million," Reiner shrugged, and after some consideration, he said, "But ours is about half as high, and the current budget is 1500 million!"

This is not simply 500 million more, but more than half of the budget.

Even, 500 million can make a simple romantic comedy.

This is the market these days.

That's why Reiner made a special explanation, such as the large span of time and space, and many scenes.

This is also because Han Sheng is afraid that Han Sheng will misunderstand that this is cheating him or something.

Han Sheng, who knew the real situation, naturally wouldn't.

He also smiled and said, "I don't know much about the film industry for the time being, but since I'm here, I naturally trust you completely, so I have no problem with this aspect!"

This is also the advantage of being an accomplice, even if he really doesn't understand, the other party will not cheat him.

This is the minimum principle.

Then he looked at Ai Fulun, "I think you probably know the reason for my visit, but I think it's better for Meg to communicate with you in person on this matter!"

If it was before, he would have directly thrown money at people.

But they are all in the same group, so he won't be so simple and rude.

In the original time and space, Meg Ryan convinced Afron that things would go more smoothly with his factors now.

Ephron obviously liked his attitude, so he was naturally willing to give Meg Ryan a chance to communicate.

When it was time for lunch, Han Sheng invited the two of them to have dinner together.

He and Reiner were talking about investment, while Meg Ryan and Afron were whispering about their affairs.

After dinner, they chatted separately for about an hour. When it was almost three o'clock, when he and Reiner negotiated to invest 500 million knives, accounting for one-third of the investment, Meg Ryan over there also happily followed Ephron came out of the other party's office.

Obviously, it's done.

……

After resigning from Castle Rock Entertainment, Meg Ryan went to the crew of "Flying Childhood", and Han Sheng returned to the record company.According to the schedule, after he finishes his work in Los Angeles, he will return to San Francisco to continue his studies in two days.

When I arrived at the company, I went to the recording studio immediately.

Niu Jie and Qiao Hip Zhen are both there, but this time there is no quarrel.

It's very simple, both of them are busy with their own albums, and their styles are different, and they are both his women, so they can get the greatest support.

In this way, there is no conflict of interest, and there will be less tension.

Unlike Sister Niu, who was jealous of her being able to post pictures as soon as she came, so Sister Niu was not easy to provoke when she was targeted at her. When she first arrived and had no support from others, she had to blow up her own hair.

It's good that there is no noise, otherwise it will be uncomfortable for him to be caught in the middle.

Um, not including the whole work time.

After asking about their situation and providing some relevant opinions, he returned to his office.

Open the window, draw the curtains, the sun is shining outside the window.

Stretching comfortably, looking at the three children playing in the street below, he smiled, as if touched.

At that moment, with a sudden bang, he was hit by a bullet from a sniper rifle, and a shocking blood burst out of his chest, and then he fell on his back...
