Five o'clock in the morning.

There was no alarm, and Simon still woke up on time. He has been up at this time these days since that fund began to build a warehouse.

The woman on the body and the fragrance in the bedroom make Simon realize that this is not his apartment in the century building.

Held by Janet as a pillow, Simon didn't get up immediately. He looked at the woman who was still sleeping. A few strands of golden hair slanted on her rosy white face, her lips slightly pursed, her eyelashes slender, and she was lazy and satisfied in her sleep.

Looking for a moment, Simon also felt a sense of peace of mind.

Maybe.

This is where I feel at ease.

So he got close and gave Janet a little kiss on the lip. Then Simon took off the woman's arms carefully.

There is no change in the layout of the villa and before I left last time.

After washing up, Simon went jogging in the gym for half an hour. After taking a bath, it was already six o'clock.

There are not many kinds of futures in North America at present. Simon is completely betting on the S & P 500 index futures, which can be predicted by himself and has the largest trading volume in the market.

The S & P 500 index futures was launched by the Chicago Mercantile Exchange in 1982. At present, the daily contract turnover is between 80000 and 100000, and occasionally it will exceed 100000. Therefore, Simon's "Butterfly" will not be too conspicuous, which is the source of his confidence that the S & P 500 curve in the next few months will not deviate too much from the data in his memory.

As the electronic trading system has not yet appeared, the stock index futures are still very old-fashioned manual trading on the floor from 8:30 a.m. to 3:15 p.m. from Monday to Friday.

Chicago belongs to the central time zone of the United States, two hours earlier than Los Angeles. On Simon's side, at six o'clock in the morning, the Chicago Mercantile Exchange is close to opening.

After making a pot of coffee for himself, Simon comes to his study, sits down behind his wide desk and dials Noah Scott with a cup of coffee.

They are talking in a low voice about the trading plan after the opening of today's market. Janet comes in languidly from the door in her pajamas. When she sees Simon, she comes directly to him. Her soft body shrinks in Simon's arms like a kitten, and then she squints again.

Simon kept talking to Noah Scott in a low voice for a while. Then he closed the line, patted Janet with a smile and asked, "would you like some coffee?"

Janet shook her head. "I haven't brushed my teeth yet."

Simon said, "I'll take you back to your bedroom and sleep a little longer?"

"No," Janet said, shaking her head again, slightly perking up and raising her face, "you just let Noah buy another 800 contracts?"

Simon nodded and said, "yes."

"That's 4500 contracts," Janet said, squinting her eyes. "4500 contracts, in the 270-275 position range, need about $60 million in margin. The proportion of positions exceeds 80%, and the available funds are only $15 million. Well, Noah's going to think you're crazy. Little bastard, you don't want to continue to increase positions, do you

Simon hugged the woman's soft body and said, "no, that's it."

Janet rubbed Simon's little hand on his chest, looked at him with bright eyes, and said, "but, little bastard, it's easy for you to lose money like this. Is that really OK? "

Simon's current position, the S & P 500 index every point of volatility means a profit and loss of $2.25 million.

Although the current futures trading is not daily debt free settlement, if the accumulated Book loss in the account of westero company exceeds the remaining 15 million US dollars of available funds, Simon needs to add margin, otherwise the broker will force him to level off part of the contract to ensure that the account funds are sufficient.

Based on this calculation, the 4500 long contracts of Westeros company, in addition to the 60 million fixed margin, Simon's chips even including the 20 million dollar loan can only withstand the 15 point decline of the S & P 500 index, which is equivalent to 5% of the index market.

Actually.

From the beginning of the year to now, in just four months, the S & P 500 index has experienced two sharp rises and falls between 250 and 300 points, with the maximum rise and fall rate close to 20% of the market.

According to this fluctuation, Simon's current position is totally unbearable.

After all.

If the S & P 500 market falls again by about 20%, more than 50 points, the theoretical loss of each contract at the lowest point will exceed $25000. 4500 contracts, the amount of loss will be 112.5 million, which is far more than the $75 million principal in the account of Westeros.

Of course.

As long as there is no direct diving crash in memory, Simon can clear his position ahead of time and escape, but he will definitely face huge losses.

If that happens, even if you lose half of it, it's $37.5 million.

In this era, the US dollar is still quite valuable.Simon and Janet now live in the Pali Said mansion, twenty or thirty years later, not 23 million do not even think about it, but even at the top of the US real estate bubble in 80s, the price is only 4 million dollars.

It's obvious.

Simon is in danger of losing 10 of the top luxury houses of his time at any time.

No wonder Noah Scott thinks he's crazy.

However.

Danger and opportunity always coexist.

Although many Wall Street analysts now judge that the stock market is weak and may turn to a sharp decline at any time, it is true. However, Simon clearly remembers that the S & P 500 index at around 270 is the lowest in the next four months.

Compared with the previous four months of repeated ups and downs, in the next four months, the S & P 500 index will show a very stable rising posture, and basically there will not be too much volatility.

As a result, Simon probably doesn't need to use the loan just in case, but the remaining $15 million of available funds in the account of westero company is enough to withstand the weak fluctuation in the overall upward trend of the market.

At this point.

Looking at Janet with her eyes wide open in her arms and trying to look worried, Simon couldn't help but look down and peck on the woman's lips and said with a smile, "you don't think I'm going to lose everything, do you? At that time, westero will have to pay off his debts by himself

Janet raised her little hand and pushed Simon's head away. Her original worry was swept away in a twinkling of an eye, showing a smiling look. She ran after him and touched the man's cheek and said, "I will treat you well, little Simon."

Sure enough.

Simon sighed in his heart. He suddenly reached out and grasped Janet's little arm. He felt the woman in his arms and said, "look, recognize the reality."

Janet stared at Simon with her eyes full of water and murmured in a soft voice, "little bastard."

Simon smiled and took Janet away from her body after pulling off her strength. She listened to her blaming without any damage. She noticed the beautiful beauty of a pair of red nail polish exposed by the movements of the woman, and suddenly moved her heart.

Holding up the woman's white face with one hand and looking at it for a moment, Simon felt that he had no place to go.

Janet belongs to the type that likes plain face, and a woman's excellent appearance is enough for her to appear in front of people without any makeup.

However.

As long as you put on a big red lipstick and adjust your way of speaking, you'll find the coquettish, charming, accented and even dangerous and crazy under the surface. This is exactly what Simon needs.

He bowed his head and pecked on her lips again. Simon said, "honey, I still lack a role in my movie. How about you play it?"

Janet, who had recovered a little, twisted her body and asked in a soft voice, "which one?"

Simon said, "Esmeralda veralobos."

Janet's eyelashes flashed a few times and said, "OK, but I can't perform."

"It doesn't matter. I'm a director. The director likes to direct the actresses himself

"Hehe, little bastard," Janet chuckled and pinched Simon, then said, "by the way, what happened to the cartoon you talked about last time? I'm looking forward to it. "

Although they didn't meet before, Simon asked Neil to transfer the manuscript to Janet the next day after the phone call that night, and the two talked about it more than once on the phone.

Simon heard the speech, regretfully shook his head and said: "Disney just wants to buy the script, not to make it for us."

Janet tilted her head: "what about that?"

Simon thought of an animation company still in a corner of San Francisco and said, "that's fine. Maybe we can try to make the film in another style. "

Janet wondered, "well?"

Simon did not hide, said: "do you think, this animated film to make 3D like this?"

Janet flashed her eyes again, obviously unfamiliar with the concept of 3D animated film. Not surprisingly, so far, Pixar has only produced a naughty jump light, which only lasts more than two minutes.

Simon patiently explained, "remember the opening of" Lola Run "

Janet paused and said, "I remember, Pixar."

In fact, Janet thought more about it.

For example.

One of the newspaper clippings I saw in Simon's study was obviously marked with Pixar's name.

Hum.

The little bastard must have had this idea for a long time.

And they cheat themselves with the excuse of giving gifts.

Hum hum.

However, smart women will certainly not expose these.Then don't tear it down.

Simon didn't know what Janet was thinking. He looked at the charming woman in his arms. Although he instinctively felt that she was thinking carefully in this state, he didn't ask. He nodded and said, "it's Pixar. If possible, we'll buy it and make a 3D version of lion king."

Once upon a time, the lion king, with a total global box office of more than 900 million US dollars, has been the best-selling animated film for more than ten years before it was broken by animated films such as Toy Story 3 and ice and snow.

Now.

Unless he is willing to give up the script, it is not likely that the original Disney team will help him to "OEM" the lion king. Michael Eisner was right at that time. Besides Disney, Simon is unlikely to find another excellent 2D animation film team.

So.

These days, Simon came up with another bold idea.

Make a 3D animated version of the lion king.

With Simon's understanding of the current 3D animation technology, it's not easy to achieve the smooth effect of 2D animation, but Simon is not in a hurry. It's a big deal to drag on for a few years.

Technical problems, as long as they can be solved, are not problems.

Later too many excellent animated films are enough to prove that Disney absolutely has enough strength to solve this problem.

As for whether the future 3D version of "the lion king" will be able to achieve the box office miracle, Simon is not too worried.

Film is the most risky business in the world.

But at the same time.

Film is also the purest business in the world. As long as the quality of a film is excellent enough, the audience is willing to buy tickets to enter the cinema.

So.

Whether it's 2D or 3D, the lion king is the lion king.

Even if Simon perfectly copies the original 2D version of the lion king, there are still too many variables whether he can achieve the box office results. In contrast, the 3D version of the lion king can add some selling points to the film.

After talking about the lion king for a while, Simon and Janet leave the study.

Janet ran to change clothes and wash. Simon went downstairs to prepare breakfast.

At about 8:30, they leave palisade mansion. Simon goes to danielis film headquarters in Santa Monica. Janet's destination is her studio in Venice Beach.

One month after their breakup, they suddenly got back together, which inevitably led to a chase by paparazzi.

However, accustomed to this state, they did not sigh too much.

It's already mid May.

The next day, Columbia Pictures' film "ISTA" was officially released with 1139 screens, indicating the official opening of the 1987 summer program.

Starring Warren Beatty, Dustin Hoffman and French actress Isabel ajani, Eastar costs $55 million. Simon saw the budget scale of the film in the newspaper, and his heart was filled with emotion.

Half of the top ten films in North America box office last year cost less than $10 million.

Now.

It seems that all of a sudden, Hollywood has entered the era of blockbusters.

Simon just saw Catherine's first cinema feature film "night of the bloody corpse" on June 19. Although it was crowded into the summer camp, and Simon, the director's assistant, made a stunt, d'laurentius entertainment only won 500 yuan for the film.

In this regard, Simon also clearly raised doubts to Martha Schumacher, President of de Laurentiis entertainment yesterday. He didn't mind that Catherine's film was promoted under her own name. In this case, it's better to put the film back in August or September. The competition for the popular schedule is not fierce, and we can at least win more than 1000 open screen.

Martha Schumacher told Simon that "night of the blood corpse" should be the last film released before the bankruptcy of d'laurentius entertainment group, and they could not wait a few more months.

Simon has no choice but to be powerless.

After instructing Noah Scott to buy the last long contract, Simon let it go for a while and put all his energy into the production of three films owned by danielis pictures.
