In the original time and space, Mel Gibson was boycotted by the whole Hollywood after the anti Semitic speech incident. In fact, he was not completely suppressed. The accumulation of resources and contacts was not bad at all. At the peak of time, Dustin Hoffman of Mel Gibson and Simon could not completely block him.

Terry Semel and Peter Cooper appeared in person, and Simon relaxed.

In Madonna's mansion, as Simon leads Janet to the dance floor, Terry Semel and Peter Cooper reach their goal and don't want to spend more time at the party. They walk out together.

When he came to the front yard, Peter Cooper said in a relaxed tone: "I thought this would be a bit of a trouble. It seems that westero still knows how to stop it."

Terry Semel noticed the smile on Peter Cooper's face, but he didn't think so.

If that young man had been so talkative, Meg Ryan would not have come to this end.

After "rocket expert" at the end of last year, Meg Ryan hasn't been able to get another film appointment in Hollywood. Recently, he heard that he went to England to start a new career there. Terry Semel is not optimistic about the actress's action at all. Some British film companies are trying to break into Hollywood. How can they easily get into the limelight of Denise entertainment because of Meg Ryan.

As for the current issue, we all know that it's impossible to ban a Hollywood blockbuster with two Oscars. Westero just pushed the boat along. However, if westero is going to let go of Dustin Hoffman, Semel, who has had many contacts with the young man, doesn't think so.

You know, with "when Harry meets Sally", Meg Ryan didn't want to be constrained by danielis Entertainment's original contract and wanted to terminate it. At the beginning, westero was also very happy to "let go" the actress and just asked the other party to pay a penalty.

The whole of Hollywood saw what happened next.

Terry Semel even thought of Sony's plan to produce captain hawk, which had been circulating in Hollywood for several years. It was not until recently that Sony offered a high price that Spielberg and Robin Williams agreed to join.

Denise entertainment has been searching for all kinds of copyrights since its rise in westero. If captain Hawk has enough box office potential, Denise entertainment has no reason to let it go.

The fact is that Denise entertainment has never shown any interest in captain hawk.

Although the magic of ghost, which was painted last week, no longer seems to let many people in Hollywood see a glimmer of "dawn" that Danielle Reese's entertainment will fail, it is just a Valentine's Day movie "pretty girl" in February, which is enough to prove that westero's film vision has not faded at all.

As of last week, the total North American box office of "pretty girl" has reached 161 million US dollars, and it is expected that the total North American box office of the film will be close to 180 million US dollars before the next film.

Moreover, the overseas box office performance of "pretty girl" is even better than that of North America.

Although many overseas ticket warehouse countries have not allowed the release of "pretty girl of the wind and the moon" due to the protection of their summer archives, only countries and regions such as the United Kingdom, Germany, Italy and Australia that have been released have easily exceeded 130 million US dollars in the box office in recent months.

When major ticket stores such as Japan, France and Spain open, the global box office of "pretty girl" is expected to hit even US $500 million.

With a production cost of US $10 million and a global box office of US $500 million, any major Hollywood film company, even if it only has such a successful film in a year, is basically enough to support the annual performance.

Those who gloat because the box office and word-of-mouth of ghost are just average can only be regarded as self consolation.

Since westero still keeps his own excellent vision in film, the young people are indifferent to captain hawk, and Terry Semel doesn't think this project is a good choice for Sony.

What's more, Sony is too generous this time.

Only Spielberg and Robin Williams, in addition to the fixed film remuneration, Sony also promised 20% and 10% of the net profit share of the project respectively, and Dustin Hoffman would take at least another 10%.

Before the film was filmed, 40% of the profit had been promised. Considering that the production cost of the film could not be less than 50 million US dollars, Terry Semel felt that Sony would not make any "yell" even if it would not lose money this time. It was more likely that it would be a dishonorable injustice.

It happened that Peter Cooper, who was next to him, was the one to blame.

Terry Semel and Peter Cooper got into their cars. Before leaving, Semel couldn't help looking at the luxury Rolls Royce that Peter Cooper had just replaced.

For more than half a year in charge of Columbia, the luxury and profligacy of Peter Cooper and John Peters are the envy of other Hollywood studios.They not only arranged a lot of cronies to the company, but also had no scruples about spending Sony's money. It is said that in recent weeks, John Peters will take Columbia's special plane to and from Europe and Los Angeles every week, just to date his new girlfriend, not only for the special plane expenses, but also for the hotels, restaurants and even luxury goods for his girlfriend.

If it's any other studio, it won't work.

However, it is Peter Cooper's ex-wife who is in charge of the finance of Columbia Pictures.

Many Hollywood natives are watching Sony's excitement, wondering how much "Tuition" the Japanese electronics giant will eventually pay and how long it will last before it takes the initiative to leave Hollywood.

Simon knows the number.

2.1 billion US dollars!

in the original time and space, this is the number of asset write down losses announced by Sony that year after Peter Cooper and John Peters left Colombia. Because of this shocking huge loss, Sony founder Akio Morita had to step down and quit the management of Sony completely.

On the dance floor, Simon recalled the "past." Janet, with her arms around his neck, came up and whispered, "are you really going to let those guys go?"

Because Janet was so close to her ear, Simon subconsciously tilted his head slightly.

Janet was "sequelae" of Simon's grip on her wrist. Now Simon has a psychological shadow over Janet's biting her ear.

Noticing Simon's evasion, Janet deliberately came closer and bit the man's teeth a few times, making a slight jingle.

Simon turned to kiss Janet on the face, took the opportunity to let the woman's teeth away from her ears, hugged her waist and said, "I've never been a good forgiver, but some things can't be accomplished overnight, so I can only keep them in mind for a while."

Well, Janet nodded her head and said in a low voice, "I hate that."

Simon just smiles.

After a dance and a few more hours at the party, they left Madonna's mansion.

Back to the villa on the west side of Cape Dumay, it's ten o'clock in the evening.

Janet has never been a person who likes to stay up late. After taking Simon for a bath, she quickly goes to bed.

The next day was Sunday.

It's already summer, and golden light has been shining in the bedroom of Linhai.

Simon got up at six o'clock, took off the woman's arms, washed, changed his sportswear and went to the gym.

At seven o'clock, I went to the bedroom again, changed my clothes and called Janet to get up.

Take the confused woman to the bathtub with warm water. Simon comes to the restaurant.

With the four women from ABCD, Simon doesn't need to have a busy breakfast.

Wearing a white shirt and black trousers, Claire, a very ol looking C girl, saw Simon appear and offered to hand over today's newspaper.

Simon said good morning and looked at the girl beside him.

White shirt and black trousers. These are the work clothes of four girls.

Simon didn't have such a bad taste that he made the four women wear maid's clothes, which made him look like an old landlord in England. In this way, the ol style dress is just right. The four women are all about 175cm tall, slim and slim, with uniform dress, which fully conforms to Simon's uniform obsessive-compulsive aesthetic.

To Simon's present wealth status, it is difficult to regenerate too strong desire for women, because it is too easy to get.

Most people have all kinds of ambiguous associations when they put these four delicate vases beside them, but for Simon, apart from letting them take care of their daily life, it's just for pleasure.

Claire Geithner, Simon's "C," noticed his eyes, moved slightly toward the man and whispered, "boss, maybe you should see the entertainment section of the Los Angeles Times today."

Simon was stunned. He nodded his head quickly and said with a smile, "good."

Then he opened the newspaper in front of him and found the entertainment section of the Los Angeles Times.

A thin white finger came over and nodded somewhere. Simon looked over and frowned slightly.

Another big deal, Michael owitz or leading Panasonic to buy MCA.

In my memory, the news of Matsushita's acquisition of MCA was not officially made public until August. Before that, it had been in a state of secret contact.

Now what's going on? Is Panasonic going to start ahead of time?

With that in mind, Simon began to read the text, and then he was a bit embarrassed.

It turned out that this news was purely an accident.

In order to avoid the media storm caused by Sony's acquisition of Colombia last time, the acquisition led by Michael owitz is indeed very confidential.

It's just that people are not as good as nature.

The previous Friday, Michael owitz led his team back to Los Angeles from Tokyo and met Hollywood actor Charlie Sheen and his party. Charlie Sheen is not a star of CAA. Naturally, he has no obligation to keep teowitz confidential. Then, this matter leaked out, which has become the evidence that the media has been speculating that owitz is operating Panasonic to acquire MCA.Although danielis entertainment has not started contact with MCA, the private preparations for the acquisition have not stopped.

Simon plans to enter the game after the outbreak of war in the second half of the year and the news of Panasonic's official public acquisition of MCA. Now, if Panasonic has to make an offer ahead of time due to the leakage of this information, things may be a little tricky.

After the North American stock market crash last year, MCA's stock price slowly recovered to more than $45 in the first half of the year, and its market value fluctuated between $4.5 billion and $5 billion.

Now, it's hard to capture MCA without US $8 billion when the two sides fight.

In my memory, Panasonic bought MCA at a price of US $6.6 billion. In the following few years, universal pictures also produced such super selling works as Jurassic Park. However, Panasonic had to sell them at a lower price later. It can be seen that MCA is not worth such a high price.

Therefore, let alone $8 billion, as long as the price is more than $7 billion, Simon would rather quit than be a big loser.

The $7 billion is Simon's price cap on the planned acquisition.

Simon is thinking about how to deal with the immediate changes. Wearing a water blue dress, Janet walks into the dining room, hugs Simon around the neck, kisses him, sits down next to him, glances at Claire who is still standing next to Simon, but asks Simon, "what's the matter?"

Claire noticed Janet's seemingly unintentional eyes, dodged humbly, and walked quietly toward the kitchen.

Simon didn't notice the woman's small eyes. He showed her his newspaper and said, "Panasonic may announce the acquisition of MCA in advance."

Janet scanned the news release at a glance, with some schadenfreude on her face, and said: "Panasonic should not be ready. It's not good for them to launch an offer in advance. It will only push MCA's share price skyrocketing. I guess both CAA and Panasonic will publicly deny this report. "

Simon nodded, and the possibility was great.

Thinking of another thing, Simon said to Janet, "cersei capital, don't touch MCA stock this time."

With the release of this news, Wall Street arbitrage capital will certainly start to enter the market to absorb MCA shares. Cersei capital also set foot in short-term arbitrage trading. If it starts to buy now, it is likely to be subject to the SEC's insider trading investigation at that time.

"I know."

Janet agreed, and Claire and Deborah brought breakfast.

Originally planned to have a day off at home, suddenly this happened. Amy and James called and Simon rushed to the cinema after breakfast.

Seeing the man out of the house, Janet returns to the villa.

Alison and Becky, who are near the house, come later, and the four ABCD girls get together.

Janet directs the four girls to clean the villa, checks the kitchen and bedrooms and bathrooms, makes a list of daily necessities to purchase in the new week, and sends the two girls out to purchase.

After arranging these, he made several phone calls to discuss the details of various properties of the westrow family. The mansion on Mercer Island in Seattle needs to buy a speedboat. Is the latest manor in Rome equipped with the latest alarm system.

Janet started doing these things when she was Janet Johnston, and now she's Janet westero, which is even more right.

I really enjoy this kind of hostess feeling.

Moreover, because she can always hand over most of the things to others, Janet is always able to handle the seemingly tedious and trivial housework. Little brain also habitually keeps seven points running, lazy, light, leisurely and leisurely, and never makes herself tired.

It's so busy at noon that before Simon goes home for lunch, he can huddle in the living room sofa and look over cersei capital's information.

Apollo management's Leon black team is bidding for a $1.5 billion bond asset in the name of CBS next week. The deal will work with Citibank and Union Bank of Australia, each contributing $500 million.

500 million dollars, which is half of the $1 billion fund previously raised by Apollo management. Naturally, we need to be very cautious.

The bond assets of US $1.5 billion are actually the valuation after the collapse and shrinkage of the US bond market in the past half year. The book value of these bonds is close to US $3.5 billion.

If this business can be successful, Apollo management company's investment of US $500 million, when the bond is paid off as agreed in the next three years, can obtain more than doubled income, with an average annual return of more than 30%, which is a very eye-catching rate of return for any private fund.

In addition, there are other investment projects in the pipeline.

For example, Simon seems to be very interested in the acquisition of a mattress production company named Simmons, and Janet is more interested.
