Chapter 165 WMO Executive President
"But we only have one month left. Where can we contact the host at this time?"

The two of them didn't discuss it and came up with a result. The car had already arrived at the Four Seasons Hotel.

“It seems like we need to seek Julia’s opinion and see if she has any good ideas.”

In the business suite of the Four Seasons Hotel, Charlie met the person in charge of WMO, Ms. Julia. Maple described her correctly. She was a short and unattractive old lady who always had a kind smile on her face.

"Legend has it that this is the place where the daughter of an Indian chief died for love."

"Welcome Mr. Charlie Rossi, your previous shows are impressive and it is an honor to work with you."

She shook hands with Charlie very enthusiastically and her tone was eager. It was obvious that she admired Charlie's abilities very much.

In fact, ever since she saw that show, she had been looking forward to collaborating with Charlie Rossi.If anyone can stem the tide of the Miss World beauty pageant, it's Charlie Rossi.

"We can accept your proposal. This competition will be entirely led by you, and we will do our best to help."

"This is best. Let's solve the most important issue of the hosting location first. Do you have any other records?" Charlie asked.

If that doesn't work, the only option is to hold the event in Chicago.

"Of course, we have several alternatives, including Moscow, Johannesburg, London, and our best partner in recent years... Sanya, it is up to you to decide where it is." Julia said, it seems that she Already prepared.

"I want to say, it's better to continue to choose Sanya." Charlie decided to continue the results of his previous life.

Although the influence of Miss World is not what it used to be, it can still bring some attention, and I can also go back and take a look.

"That's it. Regarding the budget, we have 9 sponsors. Through the last two cooperation experiences, the host is willing to give us a lot of resources, such as free use of the exhibition hall."

"What's the final budget?"

"About 300 million US dollars."

US$300 million is not enough to cover the appearance fee of a star during a show. It can only be said that international competitions are also divided into three, six or nine levels, and the beauty pageant circuit is considered to be the lowest among them.If the previous shows were high-impact, now they are forced to take the small but beautiful route.

"It's enough. I will prepare a team, including the director and assistant director."

"Very well, you are the chief executive of the organizing committee."

"Let's go tomorrow."

After concluding discussions with Julia and Mep, Charlie chose to return to his mansion on Long Island, where Hadley and Gisele Bundchen now live, in addition to five Filipino maids. .

When they entered, the two of them were having dinner. When they looked up and saw it was Charlie, the two of them immediately stood up and gathered around.

"When did you come to New York?" Hadley looked surprised.

Hadley still has a job, and Gisele Bundchen is also five months pregnant. Charlie had previously reported that the two of them were safe and did not ask them to come with them.

"Just arrived today, come here to talk." Charlie kissed her.

"Are you okay?" Giselle asked with concern.

She was much taller than Faith and very thin, so even though she was five months pregnant, her belly was only slightly bulging.

"It doesn't matter. I haven't come to see you during this time." Charlie held Giselle's cheek.

A little farewell was better than a wedding. Charlie was pulled by the two to chat for a long time, and he mentioned the current situation in the conversation.

"The company is operating well. In addition, the Miss World finals to be held next month will also be hosted by PB Company. I came to New York just to finalize this matter." Charlie said to the two of them.

Hadley shook her head, she was a little dissatisfied.

"Not to mention Miss World, the ratings for Miss World are also terrible." She mentioned another beauty pageant.

Now as a middle-level manager at CNBC, she has naturally heard about beauty pageants from her colleagues at the NBC channel.

"Besides, the ceiling of these beauty pageants is so high, and you can't make much money."

"To me, beauty pageants are like a draft, helping me discover potential new stars. As long as I can control the beauty pageants, there will be a steady stream of new people signing with Venus. Unlike those supermodels, they don't have any agencies. Even if there are, they are all small and subpar contracts." Charlie explained.

He has not forgotten his big studio system.

PB Company's main business is media, and now it has PB Pictures, Marvel and PB Music focusing on content. Although the two are complementary, they are missing the most critical source-artists.

Venus is able to occupy the low-end market now, relying on the number of people, not the quality. With the platform of the beauty pageant, it can continuously discover more outstanding newcomers, which can be regarded as making up for its shortcomings.

By then, his entertainment empire will become a sophisticated automated machine, and he will become a real entertainment tycoon!
"My goal is not Miss World, but Miss Universe jointly owned by Meri Group and NBC. You need to contact me,” Charlie said to Hadley.

"Of course, the executives at the TV station attach great importance to your cooperation. According to today's data, the ratings of your variety show are quite good, setting a new record for the highest ratings in the same period." Hadley said particularly excitedly.

Charlie can be relied upon by NBC executives, and her own status will rise accordingly.

"This is just the beginning. We already have plans for several other shows. In addition, I'm still preparing for an epic fantasy drama series. NBC executives will definitely be very interested." Charlie said suddenly.

The producer is now in London. According to the list given by Charlie, he has found seven or eight people, and the pilot episode will start shooting soon.

"What gathering?" This was the first time Hadley knew about this.

""A Song of Ice and Fire""

"George R.R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire? When did you get him?"

“Also at this year’s sci-fi convention, there’s Stephen King’s adaptation of Under the Dome.”

Charlie was like a barrage of bombshells, dropping one bombshell after another.

Hadley's mouth opened wider and wider, and Giselle on the side was also frightened.

That night, the two were extraordinarily gentle and considerate. They first served Charlie to take a bath, and then tried their best to cater to them. Perhaps it had been a long time since they had seen each other. Charlie's interest was also particularly high, and the charming atmosphere became more intense.

For the next few days, Charlie stayed in New York, waiting for the visa to be processed. With the endorsement of the association, the procedures went smoothly.Apart from him, this trip to the Far East also included Razek and more than a dozen backbones of the business activities department.

Five days later, Charlie got ready and embarked on a transatlantic flight...
