Chapter 301: 301

Listening to Simon's feelings, Jennifer said: "according to Dad's recent negotiation with Nokia, we only need about US $200 million to take over Nokia's mobile communication equipment department. Considering the subsequent operating expenses, the total expenditure in one year will not exceed 250 million, because there are no other large-scale overseas investment projects, so we can only withdraw the funds to China. ”

Simon originally planned to acquire most of the equity of Nokia through capital injection, but because of the political turmoil in Eastern Europe and Nokia's own consideration of being eager to streamline its business, the other side took the initiative to ask Westeros to take over the mobile communication equipment department of Nokia.

Although Nokia's mobile communication equipment department can not be compared with Motorola, Simon found a large number of GSM related second-generation digital communication technology patents in the process of checking its asset list, and the company's other technology accumulation in mobile communication is also deep enough.

Therefore, since Simon has a large amount of money in his hands, he will not oppose the overall plan.

Apart from Nokia, Simon has not found any other large investment projects that satisfy the appetite of Westeros.

In contrast, Simon's advantage in withdrawing funds to the United States is not just MCA. Many other investment goals are enough to bring him ten times and one hundred times returns in the future. With billions of dollars of funds, the domestic market of the United States can fully survive.

However, the 28% capital gains tax is really painful.

According to the current volume of cersei capital, after settlement, all the funds belonging to Simon will be transferred back to China, only the taxes to be paid will exceed $1 billion.

Simon even had the idea of changing his nationality. However, this idea is just to think that, compared with other western countries, the tax system of the United States is complex, but it is not high. Moreover, if Simon changes his nationality, his business expansion in the United States will definitely be subject to all kinds of strict restrictions.

Jennifer waited for Simon to think for a moment, and then said again, "there's another thing. According to the news from Los Angeles, Australia's qintex group and MGM issued a statement at two o'clock in the afternoon. They have finalized the general merger plan. As long as the funds are in place, the two sides can complete the deal 。”

The female assistant said and handed over a page of information from the folder.

Simon was a bit surprised.

In my memory, qintex group did not succeed in acquiring MGM. What's the matter now?

After reading the statement submitted by Jennifer, it turns out that qintex group recently sold a resort in Brisbane for us $430 million, and the US $500 million corporate bond issued by qintex group for the purpose of acquiring MGM also won the support of many Australian investment institutions.

Putting down the statement on that page, Simon said, "qintex is obviously insolvent. There are so many people who are stupid enough to join in."

Looking at Simon's side face, Jennifer said: "after the release of the Forbes rich list last month, Hollywood's attraction to capital has increased significantly. Orion is also discussing financing with a Canadian company recently. If it gets the money, the company may be able to survive the crisis."

Simon pointed to the file on his knee and said, "don't let Orion survive the crisis. I'm still waiting to buy this company's film library."

At the beginning, Nancy Brill's proposal to Simon has always been in his mind, and Orion does have a number of very high-quality film copyrights.

"That's why you didn't give Orion places for the 10 projects this time," she said with a smile

Simon nodded and said, "yes, and of course there's something about Orion's default on the share of vulgar fiction. The situation of this company is getting worse and worse. If we cooperate with them again, we will certainly be in arrears, or even unable to recover the funds at all. "

In addition to the high quality of the project itself, Simon also has a variety of pertinence in the choice of cooperative companies.

Fox is because of the Murdoch family, Disney and Warner Brothers are because they have had a very happy cooperation before, Columbia is because of Matthew Broderick's business, and as for globegroup, the "ten days in danger" that they cooperate with each other will probably be their own in the end.

The rest of paramount, MGM and the second tier Orion, Simon does not intend to work with them unless necessary.

Perhaps, after qintex completes its acquisition of MGM, the company will also lift the ban.

It's still an Australian company.

In fact, compared with Orion, MGM's film library is richer. This company is very powerful in the golden age of Hollywood.

Simon also inquired about the capital game played by Ted Turner and Kirk cochrian a few years ago. Turner Broadcasting Company only left the TV broadcasting right of MGM's film library before 1986, and it is not a permanent license. It will expire in 2003.As a result, MGM is still the largest film company in Hollywood's film library.

According to previous information provided by Janet, Simon is sure that even if qintex can buy MGM this time, the company will not last long.

If MGM can be taken over and the plan to merge universal can be implemented smoothly, daenerys entertainment will surely become the media company with the richest content resources in Hollywood, and at the same time, it will be able to maximize the commercial potential of blockbuster's retail chain channels.

Gulfstream IV landed at Santa Monica airport more than 40 minutes later.

It's only six o'clock in the afternoon.

Simon sent the female assistant back to rest, and he came to Denise entertainment headquarters again.

Before Amy got off work, they discussed some company issues.

Scream 2 will be released on Friday.

On October 13, danielis Entertainment's fantasy comedy angel, starring Daryl Hannah, officially entered North American Theaters, with a screen size of 1638 yuan. Simon didn't pay much attention to the film because he focused on the junk bond market.

From October 13 to the first week of October 19, "angel" earned $7.16 million. According to the decline curve of the next weekend, the total box office of the film in North America is about $20 million. Compared with the production cost of US $15 million, it's not a success, but it's not a failure. It's easy to recover the cost through later operation.

Compared with other films like angel and scream 2, Batman is still a top priority.

The budget for Batman's publicity is as high as 25 million US dollars. Although Warner Bros. is responsible for the distribution, Denise Entertainment's publicity team is also involved in it. The two companies make efforts at the same time, which shows that they attach great importance to the film.

Batman's official release date is December 22. The first 15 second trailer has been launched on major TV stations in North America at the beginning of this month. From next month, several other trailers with 30 seconds and 1 minute 30 seconds will be released.

Adam Baldwin, Valerie Gallino and other leading creators have recently been involved in the film's publicity work.

Although he pays close attention to the details of Batman's publicity, Simon doesn't plan to take part in the film's publicity activities too much. He only plans to show his face on some TV talk shows when the film is coming out in December.

With the continuous busy work, Simon has increasingly felt an obvious lack of ability, so he is very eager to pause and carefully plan the future of his personal business.

In the next few days, Simon was still busy with the publicity of the company's films at the end of the year and the preparation of a series of projects. Stanford University's campus network upgrade project based on igritte's "www" technology also started rapidly after westero's donation was in place.

Naturally, the public relations department of westero will not forget to properly publicize the donation.

So until October 26, Simon was hosting the role audition of "shaking the cradle's hand". Suddenly, Jennifer sent a personal text message from Janet in Melbourne. The content was very simple. The hedge fund following cersei capital began to flee.

Many people are monitoring the operation of cersei capital, and cersei capital is also closely monitoring the dynamics of its peers.

Now that someone had begun to react, Simon let it go completely, whispered to the female assistant to destroy the letter, and again turned his attention to the audition in front of him.

Because it's the audition of the heroine in "shaking the cradle's hand" and anti-1, the casting range is not large, but less than 10 candidates have been selected according to the recommendation of major talent agency companies. Simon also prefers the original Rebecca demoney to continue to play the role of No.1, so he calls the other party to audition today.

Rebecca demoney is one of the famous sexy actresses in the 1980s. She once starred in Tom Cruise's famous movie "walk to school", and they got engaged just before the movie was released. Of course, everyone in the circle probably knew what was going on, and the so-called engagement naturally ended later.

At the party a few days ago, Simon met Rebecca demoney. The woman left him a very interesting "business card".

Rebecca demoney is an artist of CAA. If time goes on, Simon will not use the other party. With the termination of Michael owitz's contract with Barry Levinson and others, Denise entertainment has also released the ban on CAA, which is no longer an obstacle.

Simon asked Rebecca demoney to leave the audition room for a while after more than half an hour's discussion of the character's performance.

Jeffrey carsenberg, who is in charge of Disney's production business, and other Rebecca demoney walked out of the room and couldn't help saying, "Simon, is demoney too beautiful, and her acting skills are still worse?"

Simon looked at the audition record in front of him and said, "Jeffery, a 30-year-old Hollywood actress, is well-known and has a proper image. There is not much choice. Demoney has played in Coppola's "sweetheart" and cruise's "walk to school" and is famous enough. As for acting skills, I would like to choose Oscar level stars, but Holly hunt and Melanie Griffith are not suitable. Jessica Lange is quite suitable for bad women, but she can't be 10 years younger.
