I’m in Hollywood

"That's just a gimmick. "The Sound of the Isles" itself has a very good story, and the subsequent release process spans the gratitude and Christmas files of the same type of competitors, so it can get such a good box office through long-term screening. ""

Nicole grabbed the information from Eric's hand and looked at it. He retorted: "Is there no competitor of the same type?"

Eric was taken away by Nicole and didn't care. He just emptied his hand and grabbed Nicole. One hand stretched out from the gap in the towel, stroking the smooth skin after the girl had just showered. "Fengyun" is positioned as a criminal drama film. This movie is not a mainstream business type, but it is somewhat unpopular. In addition to the star effect of Dustin Hoffman and Bruce Willis to drive the box office, it is most secure to recover the cost. The way is still to attack Oscar. But Disney chose to release on November 1st instead of using dot-compilation to accumulate word of mouth. It is equivalent to giving up Oscar, nearly 50 million US dollars of investment. After the movie’s box office results, it is sure. There will be more shareholders who are disappointed with the current management..."

Nicole was being smothered by Eric's hand on his lap, feeling that he suddenly stopped moving and curiously said, "What's wrong?"

"Michael Eisner is sure to be aware of this as well. I wonder if Disney is likely to postpone the "Year of the Gallbladder"," Eric said, staring at Nicole's delicate face for a few seconds, revealing a Funny laugh: "Nike, give you a task."

"Ok?"

"The timing is very sensitive. If Disney suddenly delays the "Yongdan Fengyun", it will definitely become a topic of media chase. You just received a movie from the heroine. If the reporter asks about it, you will say that I see it. After the script, let you not pick it up."

Nicole immediately understood the meaning of Eric's own words. Once she said those words, "Elegant" will cause similar negative effects of box office failure even if the schedule is changed. After all, no one knows that Eric is a prophetic awakening brought about by the memory of rebirth. All his success so far has been attributed to his keen eye for the film. Take the recent movies in the summer file, "Anti-Fighting Condor 2" wants to get rid of Eric's exclusive profit. As a result, the entire series was thoroughly smashed, and Disney’s "cut throat" script was taken from Eric. In the end, it was also defeated. In turn, it wasn't too optimistic about Terminator 2 and Pixar Animation Studio, but it was shined by Eric's hand.

"Well, I will say that when I get there." Nicole nodded, put the information in his hand on the coffee table in front, and leaned over to hold Eric's arm: "Eric, you really want to buy Disney." what?"

"I have made such a big move. Do you think I am playing around?"

Nicole smiled and said: "No, I mean, is the money you bought for Disney last time on the crude oil futures?"

Eric said: "Now many people want to know the source of funding for my acquisition of Disney. Such information can easily be sold for more than $100,000. Are you sure you want to know?"

"Well, I don't ask," Nicole shook her head. This issue seems to be somewhat sensitive. As a clever woman, Nicole quickly understood from Eric that this kind of thing is still not good, otherwise once the relevant information leaked out, she must have become a leak suspect.

"You still don't know the best thing about this kind of thing," Eric added. "The two schedules of the New Year are also very important for fireflies. So I will go to each studio to see it." How is the situation in "Spicy Police Flower", how come you are free today?"

"These two days of shooting Luo Luo's play. I just rested," Nicole explained.

"What about Paula Wagner?"

"She heard that this is a script that you personally conceived. Of course, it is very heart-warming and has not been thought of elsewhere. But Paula has also been preparing for the next film of Cruise, a story about European residents immigrating to the western United States. In the story, Paula also invited me to act as the heroine, but then I will not be able to. I heard that Cruise does not agree."

Eric thought that it should be the "Earth Ambition" in which Crys and Nicole co-starred. If history does not change, it is certainly no problem for the two to play together.

But now the situation is different, Nicole is already a first-line actress. In the interest of self-interest, there is rarely a first-line actress in Cruise's movie, because investors usually have corresponding actors' budgets. If the actress's pay is too high, Cruise will get the remuneration. reduce.

"Don't take care of him. Just take a "Spicy Hand Flower". If the film is successful, you will have the ability to fight at the box office. Maybe the future will be more than Cruise."

Nicole flashed some expectations in her eyes, but couldn't help but shook her head: "It's unlikely, the heroine-centered script is still too small."

Eric looked up and down Nicole and asked, "Are you not practicing ballet, is it still there?"

Nicole shook her head: "Ballet is going to be practiced all the year round. I just learned it for a while, when you asked what to do?"

"Because I want to see how your action movie looks, I have never seen your action movie yet."

Although Nicole felt that Eric was a bit strange, she said: "I have only made a few movies, I will try it in the future."

In the original time, Nicole's play was very broad. Comedy films, songs and dances, horror films, biographies, epics and so on have basically been tried. There is no action movie. This has to be said to be a pity.

However, although there are many popular movies in the memory of the heroine, there are not many female action films.

After thinking about it for a while, Eric decided to wait until the end of the year, "Spicy Handball Flower" and "Death of Life" two female movie films released after watching the situation. In particular, "Spicy Handball Flower", which has been advanced for many years, if the box office is not bad, it means that the film of the protagonist has considerable market prospects. Some female main action movies can also be developed in advance.

......

When the sky was dark, the cars of Michael Eisner and Frank Wells drove directly into a luxury home in Beverly Hills, and the two just got off. Summer. Redstone has already greeted him.

After a long chill with each other, Summer. Lei Shidong introduced the two people to the villa's restaurant. Some people were busy in the kitchen not far away. After the three were seated, the rich dishes were quickly sent out.

Half a meal, the words of mutual temptation also said a lot, Michael Eisner finally took the lead. Asked: "Mr. Lei Shidong, may you ask us to come over today?"

Summer. Lei Shidong slowly wiped his mouth with a napkin. Said: "I heard that Disney's management has recently encountered some troubles?"

Michael Eisner shrugged: "This is very clear to everyone."

Lei Shidong did not care about Michael Eisner's somewhat sloppy tone and continued: "In fact, Viacom also wants to join the acquisition of Disney."

Michael Eisner frowned, another.

Frank Wells looked at Michael Eisner without saying a word. Turning head to Lei Shidong: "Mr. Lei Shidong, Viacom operates a large chain of cinemas. According to the anti-monopoly law, I am afraid it is not suitable for the acquisition of Disney?"

"If we can reach a certain consensus today, I will separate the cinema business in the short term, so that it will not violate federal laws."

"What about the money?" Frank Wells asked again.

Summer. Reishi said: "Actually, I have planned to acquire a film company a year ago, so I have been secretly preparing. The first thing I want is Paramount, but now Disney seems to be a better one. select."

Michael Eisner suddenly said, "Mr. Lei Shidong. Or talk about your conditions?"

Lei Shidong showed a confident smile: "Michael, I know that you have some entanglements with Eric Williams, if the fireflies buy Disney. You certainly can't stay in the Disney ceo position. So, I hope that we can cooperate. This is a win-win situation. If I buy Disney, I promise you can continue to serve as Disney's ceo."

"What do I have to do?"

"You have to convince Disney's board of directors and management to stand on my side. I think shareholders will certainly not ignore the opinions of Disney management."

"Those people will only see the benefits." Michael Eisner remembered the cold reception he had received the previous week, complaining.

Lei Shidong waved his hand: "Of course I will give them enough benefits. As long as I give me three months, I can raise $5 billion in funds. Therefore, I hope that you can cooperate with me and must delay this as much as possible. The longer the acquisition, the more money I can raise."

"There is another very important question," Frank Wells said at the moment: "Now we don't know how many chips Eric Williams has. They made a $4.2 billion offer for their first offer. Price, if the firefly insists on the current wholly-owned acquisition strategy, the price will definitely rise to $5 billion."

Lei Shidong said: "I have already made people's assessment. In the oil crisis that started last year, Eric Williams raised a total of 700 million US dollars. According to the five-fold leverage, he obtained The revenue is about $5 billion, so our strength should be equal."

Michael Eisner asked: "Can you be sure?"

Lei Shidong nodded confidently: "Of course, I hired Goldman's top investment team to do a simulated investment calculus. Unless Eric Williams can make a foresight, five times is the futures leverage he is most likely to use."

Michael Eisner and Frank Wells looked at each other. Lei Shidong looked at the two people, and did not rush to pick up the coffee in front of him and waited for the decision of the two.

To be honest, if you can choose, Michael Eisner certainly hopes that Disney can remain as it is, because Disney's current equity is very fragmented, and the largest shareholder is only 16% of Disney's shares. No one has absolute control over Disney. This makes it easy for him to control the board and firmly hold Disney in his hands.

But now Disney's acquisition has become a fact, even if Lei Shidong does not shoot, perhaps there will be other companies to issue a takeover offer, in this case, it is better to choose a more favorable buyer.

Michael Eisner is not ignorant of Redstone. Lei Shidong is also a person with a strong desire to control, but relative to Eric Williams, who wants to kick himself out of Disney. Shidong is undoubtedly a good choice.

"Mr. Lei Shidong, if you want us to cooperate, I hope to sign an agreement, I want Disney's absolute control."

"This is impossible," Lei Shidong shook his head. "Michael, in fact, from the failure of "cutting the throat", even without the current acquisition, you are no longer likely to get the absolute control of Disney, you should face This fact. The reason why Disney shareholders let you control the board in the past few years is because you can bring them enough benefits."

Michael Eisner looks a little embarrassed.

Lei Shidong continued: "Of course, if I can buy Disney, I will still give you enough authority, I can guarantee this."

Michael Eisner’s heart snorted a little, and this guarantee is almost equal to no guarantee.

Lei Shidong seems to see Michael Eisner's concerns, got up and left for a while, and quickly took a document back and said: "I know your thoughts, I can't say anything, this is what I drafted. For a contract, you can take a look. If I buy Disney, you can still master Disney's most important strategic planning department, consumer products department and radio and television department. Viacom will only strengthen the financial part of Disney. And participate in the development of the Disney film project."

Michael Eisner spread the file silently, and Frank Wells also got together.

After more than ten minutes, the two together read the documents in front of them. Although the conditions on the contract did not meet their psychological expectations, it seems to be the best result. Although he is not willing to admit, Michael Eisner understands that Lei Shidong said that he is right. After several consecutive film failures, his absolute control over Disney has begun to waver, even without this acquisition, Disney’s shareholders. Will also begin to intervene in the company's affairs.

Closing the folder, Michael Eisner looked up: "So, let's talk about the specific cooperation plan."

......

It’s raining in Los Angeles, it’s a rare thing.

When I opened my eyes in the morning, Eric saw the fine rain on the glass window.

Nicole, who was shrunk in Eric's arms, was awakened by the man's movements, fascinated for a while, and then looked out the window, and there was some inexplicable excitement in his tone: "It's raining."

"Yeah," Eric said, just about to get up, but Nicole was entangled: "Eric, sleep again, it's raining so early."

Feel the soft and soft body of Nicole's scented body and stick it to himself without any cover. The desire to be born in the morning is even stronger.

If you are tired for so many days, just relax.

Thinking in my heart, Eric embraced the girl and fell on the big bed again.

Nicole smiled a few times, tearing off the thin quilt on her body, and the slender legs wrapped around Eric's waist. (To be continued)
