Chapter 510: 512

Johnston's mansion.

The loud cry of the child rang out, and Veronica was the first to appear at the door.

In the living room, Simon and Janet are on one side of the room, with a little guy in the middle.

Janet is still encouraging, but Melbourne is sitting on the carpet crying. Seeing Veronica appear, the little guy immediately spread out a pair of fat hands to her and said with a cry: "Nana, hugs."

Veronica, looking at the little guy's appearance, painfully steps forward, but stops and looks at Simon with a baby toy in her hand.

Tomorrow is December 6, Melbourne's first birthday.

Usually, young children should be able to try to walk, or at least stand at this time. However, it is obvious that in the favor of a large group of people, the little guy still can't stand steadily at this time.

I learned discourse very early.

It's just that it's more depressing for Simon.

The first word a child learns is not a father or a mother. It doesn't matter. Grandparents and the like are OK. After all, they are taken care of here.

But the first word a little guy learned was "hug.".

I don't know who I am. I want to hug everyone.

In the face of such a small baby who can act like a spoiled child, this kind of requirement can be met of course.

As a result, they are often hugged by adults. They used to be able to climb when they were half a year old, but now they don't even bother to climb, let alone walk.

As for the children's education, when the little guy was still in Janet's stomach, they discussed occasionally, saying that it must be a good policeman and a bad policeman.

Now it seems that Simon and Janet belong to the kind of "bad cop".

Of course, there is no shortage of good police.

Almost all of them are in Australia.

Simon doesn't speak. Veronica doesn't dare to pick up the baby. When the little guy sees that Nana, who used to love him, doesn't move, he cries even louder.

Then, the big boss appeared.

Raymond Johnston appeared at the door, looked at the situation in the room, and immediately understood what was going on. Probably because of the next generation, the old man was more fond of the little guy. He just glared at his daughter and son-in-law and came over to take away the little guy who had already called "Papa, Hu".

Janet watched as the child was carried away by her father, dropped the bell and looked at Simon. "How can this work?" she said

Veronica still stayed in the distance, listening to Janet say so, whispered: "Moore is still young."

Then he looked at Simon again.

Simon also threw away the toy in his hand and noticed the obvious worry in Veronica's eyes. He hesitated and shrugged.

Veronica was obviously worried that the couple would take the baby away this time.

Janet looked at the strange emotional exchange between Simon and Veronica, a little depressed, and simply opened her arms to Simon and yelled, "hug."

Simon noticed the dissatisfaction on Janet's face, got up with a smile, walked over, bent over, picked up her light body, gave a kiss on the woman's face, and then left the living room so greasy.

The old man was originally dissatisfied with Simon and Janet's leaving their children in Australia to take care of Veronica. When he came here last month, he hinted that they would take the little guy back to Los Angeles.

However, these days, seeing the couple teaching their children to walk, they suddenly stop talking about something.

In Janet's words, the old man educated his eldest son and second son, and then he didn't know how to cultivate his offspring. For the youngest grandson, he was very fond of him.

If the little guy had been here all the time and wanted to have a successor to the westrow family, they would only have one more.

Of course, this is mostly joking.

It's true that the children are still a little young.

The next day is the little guy's first birthday. Preparations have been started in advance. Naturally, it is very busy. There are a lot of rich and famous people in Australia. A little guy is ignorant about it, which is more like a social party.

Probably inspired by "a dream of Red Mansions" that she has been reading all the time, Janet also played a small game to catch the week at the party.

Of course, there is no such thing as perfume powder and lipstick. They are all kinds of objects with very good moral.

I don't give the little guy any chance to be Jia Baoyu.

Finally, he grabbed a piece of iron ore, and the old man was happy all day.

Janet was very depressed and thought that the reason why the little guy grabbed the iron ore was that he took something like chocolate.

Snacks!

Simon thinks that it is more likely that the black iron ore is the most unorthodox in a pile of serious things like pens and watches. The little guy sees something strange in a pair of daily necessities, and of course he grabs it curiously.

The scale of the westrow system is too large for Simon to completely let go of everything, even on vacation.In North America, the most eye-catching thing during Thanksgiving is not the naturally high box office success of "kid in the house 2", but the video sales of the Vimy show.

After ABC television created a viewing miracle, Denise entertainment quickly put on the big show video a week later.

Whether it's the enchanting style of the Vimy legion, or the new songs that have become classics in the show for five consecutive years, all of these have greatly promoted the sales of the videotapes of the Vimy show.

It happened to be the peak sales season during the festival. Just in the first week of its launch, the videotapes of Weimi show quickly sold 780000 boxes.

If it wasn't for the fact that the videotapes were too popular and the production and distribution failed to keep up with the demand progress, it would not be a problem for the sales volume to exceed 1 million boxes in the first week.

In the following two weeks, the video sold 1.36 million and 950000 boxes in a single week respectively.

Just last week, the total sales reached 3.09 million boxes.

At a price of around $30, 3.09 million videotapes are sold for more than $90 million.

Obviously, this is just the beginning.

It is generally predicted in the industry that the sales volume of this phenomenal video tape will exceed 10 million in North America, and it is even expected to reach 15 million in the world.

You know, in recent years, Hollywood's top box office movies, the total global sales after the release of the video is this figure.

15 million boxes, 450 million dollars in sales.

It's definitely a miracle.

All these years, Hollywood has been trying to catch up with Denise entertainment as much as possible.

However, just this video, let other competitors once again have a sense of frustration.

No matter in the entertainment industry or in the fashion industry, the sales of the videotapes of the Weimi show are all amazing.

Then came the news that Ford's modeling agency was trying to claim a share of the sale of the video.

According to the basic agreements between Hollywood and the major guilds, film and television creators do have the right to get a small percentage of the commission from the sale of video tapes. However, this video is a complete exception.

Even if some of them have the identity of actors, this time, danelis entertainment and the Vimy Legion signed an ordinary show contract.

If you want a share, don't even think about it.

When Amy Pascal heard the news, she said that if Ford is going to make a fuss, next year none of its models will be on the Vimy runway.

It was clear that it was impossible to get a share. In the face of such a warning, all the interested parties immediately gave up their efforts.

This big show is obvious for the career promotion of models.

Because of the super high ratings of TV broadcast and the big sales of video tapes, the 40 Vermeer angels have been well-known in the public far beyond other models in the same industry, and the invitation for cooperation is pouring in.

The competition in the fashion circle is very fierce. We can't afford to have such an advantage.

In case of being kicked out, someone will cry and someone will laugh.

Those who cry are kicked away, while those who laugh are those who try to get in.

Leslie Wexley, the chairman of the board of directors of Ltd, was even more fortunate and regretful. At the beginning, he almost agreed to fully authorize the Vimy show to danielis entertainment. If he did so, the huge profits brought by the video sales would not have been received by Ltd. unfortunately, if he had been able to bear all the investment of the Vimy show, instead of sharing with danielis entertainment According to the budget, most of the revenue this time will go to Ltd.

With a sales volume of US $450 million, excluding all costs, the net profit is estimated to be US $150 million.

as a whole, the net profit of most years is not so much.

Of course, Leslie Wexner also knows that the one-time profit may be very large.

After all, the first Weimi show was basically the work of Simon westero himself. Whether it was the design of the angel costume or the production of the background music, westero spent a lot of effort, so it gave the audience an unprecedented sense of surprise.

In the future, the Vermeer show will certainly attract much attention. However, because the angel costume is doomed to be unable to carry out too much innovation, westero is unlikely to have been creating songs for the Vermeer show. Therefore, it is basically impossible to achieve the first sensation.

Of course, to have such a time is enough to make people happy.

Compared with 1991, the overall sales volume of Weimi brand, which is the focus of this operation, is expected to increase by 30%, most of which will be realized in more than half a year after the acquisition of Ltd by westrow system.

It is expected that next year, the sales growth of Weimi is likely to reach 40% to 50%.

With such a growth rate of sales, within five years, Vimy will be able to grow into the largest underwear brand in North America.

On the other hand, the fast fashion transformation of the fashion business by Ltd is also quite smooth.Leslie vicksnaiben is an experienced businessman who has been involved in the fashion industry for many years. At the same time, he never complains.

In the past, he just failed to find the right direction. After getting Simon's advice, Leslie Wexner carefully investigated Zara brand in Spain, which has already developed its business to North America. He soon sorted out the company's expansion mode, and adjusted and transformed the Express brand of Ltd.

Simon thought the holiday would be safe in Australia until after the new year.

However, after the news of the great success of the Vimy video, a bad news suddenly came from North America.

It's about Time Warner.

Everyone knows that Steve Roth is running out of time because of cancer.

However, after more than half a year of treatment, at least on the surface, rose seems to have shown signs of improvement, and still firmly control the Time Warner Group in this year.

The situation of Time Warner is not satisfactory except for the film business supported by DC film universe.

After waiting patiently for more than half a year, with the coming of the end of the year, some people feel uneasy again.

Gerald Levin, the current vice-chairman of Time Warner, who has been appointed as the next successor by rose, recently made a sudden attack. He joined a large number of shareholders and senior management of Time Warner to ask Steve rose to step down on the ground that rose was too sick to concentrate on running the company.

the most direct result of this management coup is not Rose's step down, but Time Warner The stock price of the company has plummeted.

Naturally, another group of people immediately expressed their dissatisfaction, especially the diehard supporters of the rose faction.

The two sides have been coming and going in the media and in private for several times, but they basically want to stop.

After all, no one wants Time Warner's share price to keep falling.

It's just that soon another thing happened.

On December 13, Steve Ross suddenly fell into a coma and was unconscious.

After examination, the doctor determined that it was a lung infection caused by cancer complications.

For a terminal cancer patient, because of its own immune system is too fragile, cancer itself is often not fatal, complications are the most dangerous.

Two days later, after emergency surgery, Steve Roth's family announced that Roth's condition had stabilized again.

However, people familiar with the inside know that Steve Roth is still in a coma and may not be able to survive the crisis.

Inevitably, Time Warner's share price fell again.

As a result, the high-level coup, Rose's critical illness and the turbulence that lasted for a week still led to a 16% drop in Time Warner's share price. The market value of Time Warner dropped from the initial US $17.3 billion to US $14.5 billion. In just one week, the market value of time Warner evaporated by US $2.8 billion.

This time, everyone is no longer noisy.

Just one week has brought us $2.8 billion to investors. If you think about it, everyone may have to go away.

Moreover, with rose in critical condition, there was no need to make a fuss at all.

Senior management of Time Warner also realized that the most important thing is to avoid the company from continuing to be in turmoil at this time.

However, when it comes to the further distribution of power, all factions are once again in a stalemate.

Gerald Levin was the culprit of the recent series of events, and he did not dare to fight each other in public. However, the Ross faction strongly invited Gerald Levin to take responsibility in private.

To put it simply, it is to give up his original intention to succeed Ross.

Gerald Levin started ahead of time, but he didn't want to wait any longer, so as to avoid unnecessary trouble. At this time, he would not take the initiative to give in. Of course, we all care about the market value and share price. However, if we can't take charge of Time Warner, it doesn't matter to him.
