Chapter 560: 563

During the middle of July, Simon traveled frequently between Los Angeles and San Francisco.

The government of mountain view city sold 300 hectares of land to westero company at one time. The controversy caused by public opinion has not completely dissipated during this period.

The best way to solve this problem is undoubtedly to give a set of perfect regional development plan as soon as possible.

Simon's mind was very simple at first. When he found out that there was an opportunity, he went to a large area of land under the bay area circle. Now that the plot has been won, other people are responsible for the development plan.

So, after more than a month's discussion, westero officially announced the plan of "westero Science Park" on July 15.

Not only igritte, but also westcoast headquarters of AOL, Nokia North America research center, tincobail Co., Ltd. founded by C girl, and other new innovative technology companies invested by westero system will be around igritte.

At the same time, westero also welcomed the entry of other technology companies.

300 hectares of land, roughly equivalent to a rectangular plot, from south to north, the area near 101 expressway will be set aside for 50 hectares to build a park, so as to isolate the noise of traffic arteries and provide residents with a place for leisure and entertainment.

To the north of the park is an office park with an area of 150 hectares, which is expected to accommodate more than 50000 people. The headquarters of igrit company, covering an area of 30 hectares, is included in the park. To the north, the remaining 100 hectares of land will be developed into a high-end community with 1000 villas, mainly for the employees of the science and technology park to rent or sell.

Simon paid $230 million for the site.

If the science and Technology Park wants to be fully developed, the investment level will further reach 1 billion US dollars.

Therefore, whether it is a science park, a residential area or a supporting Park, it is a big cake for the construction and real estate industry in the bay area.

Igritte also has no intention to go into action in person. The construction of the whole park will work closely with local developers in the bay area.

As a result, with the announcement of the preliminary plan and the conclusion of some cooperation agreements, the criticism caused by a large number of plots under the one-time circle of westero company has been obviously eliminated. People with clear eyes can also see the reasons for the public opinion controversy in the past.

Real estate development is a profiteering industry in any country.

Different from the emerging Internet field, the real estate industry is almost accompanied by the emergence of cities, which has long been a red sea. Because of the huge profits, the interest involved and strife in the game will be very cruel. No one can easily play without enough capital support and contacts.

Simon has always been interested in owning more land and property, but he doesn't intend to get too involved in the real estate industry, which may touch a lot of old-fashioned capital interests.

With the announcement of the plan of westero science and Technology Park, other business district, residential district and office park have appeared one after another in the area north of mountain view 101 expressway. The municipal government also promised to invest money to improve the regional infrastructure construction. It is not hard to imagine that in the next few years, this barren area, which was originally located on the edge of the city, will become prosperous rapidly.

In Hollywood, the box office performance of the three new films, which opened on July 9, is just as expected. Fox's Golden Arm boy, the best performer, only made $18.21 million in the first seven days of the week.

On July 16, the number of new films in North American Theaters was reduced to two, namely, gannet assassination order by danielis and Warner Brothers, and tombstone town by MGM.

As the second summer film of the original novel author John Grimson, the success of "sugar trap" has also attracted more attention from the audience. The main creative lineup of Denzel Washington and Julia Roberts has also ensured the popularity of the project.

After the opening of the painting, relying on its excellent reputation, the box office of "the order of the pelican assassination" reached $22.19 million in the first three days of the weekend, which again stirred up the box office market.

From July 16 to July 22, in seven days, the box office of the first week of "the pelican assassination order" reached $31.63 million, reaching the top of the box office in a single week.

MGM's $25 million "tombstone," starring Kurt Russell, is much less impressive.

In the first week of the film's opening, relying on 1955 opening screens, the film won $18.76 million at the box office, which is far from the top selling level of the museum. It is estimated that the total box office in North America is equivalent to Fox's "Golden Arm boy" last week, roughly between $50 million and $60 million.

Of course, although it is not a big sale, it can also bring huge profits to MGM.

After all, by the end of July, all of the $100 million Club films in 1993 were related projects of danielis entertainment. It would be nice for other studios to have a few projects with a box office of more than $50 million, provided that the budget cost of the project does not reach the level of phantom hero.

Meanwhile, Superman, which was released for the seventh week, continued to earn US $15.38 million during the seven days from July 16 to July 22, and the cumulative box office officially broke through the US $300 million mark, reaching US $306.79 million.With the success of "sleepless in Seattle", "sugar trap" and the latest "Pelican assassination order", danielis entertainment has been planning celebration parties since early July.

With Superman's North American box office officially breaking through $300 million, the celebration party is also set for Saturday, July 24.

Although it was the weekend, Simon still worked until lunchtime in the morning, accompanied Janet for pregnancy check-up in the afternoon, returned to domay point manor in the evening, had dinner, and didn't leave until it was nearly nine o'clock to coax Janet to sleep, and then rushed to Denise studios.

The celebration party still chose the staff activity center on the second floor of Daniels studio.

When Simon arrived, the atmosphere of the party, which had been going on for two hours, was still warm.

According to the list made by girl a in advance, she exchanged greetings with the guests at the party one by one. After more than half an hour, Simon finally had a little leisure.

She was dragged to the dance floor by Sandra Bullock for a dance, then hid on a sofa deck in the corner of the party hall and didn't want to get up again.

He brought a drink for the man. Sandra sat down next to Simon carelessly and glanced at him discontentedly. "Hey, I'm so sad that you're so reluctant."

Simon leaned back in his chair, took a sip of the champagne and said, "I've been very busy lately. I'm going to be hollowed out."

Sandra looked scornfully: "hollowed out by a woman?"

Simon nodded: "yes, more than ten a day, almost unable to get out of bed."

Sandra glanced at him and said, "I've seen the script you gave me."

Simon doesn't want to talk about work now. He says with a smile, "why don't we talk about more than ten things yesterday."

Sandra stares at Simon: "OK, you say!"

"Well, this, broadcast, ebbay, 58list, ipets..."

Simon paused a little, and then skillfully reported a series of nouns.

Sandra listened to Simon with all the stars in her eyes. Did she want to roll her eyes again, or did she subconsciously ask, "what are they?"

"The VCs I saw in San Francisco yesterday."

Sandra blinked her eyes, understood it, and immediately got interested again. She took Simon's arm and said, "I have some money in my hand now. The Internet concept is so popular. Can you help me choose some investment projects?"

Simon shook his head and said, "no, you can't afford to be in the limelight. It's really burning money. If you don't pay attention, you'll lose everything. If you want advice, just buy AOL or Cisco stock. "

"I don't want to buy it. Now many newspapers say that the stock price bubbles in these companies are very serious and may fall at any time."

"Well, do you believe me or the media?"

"But IBM's recent market value is only 29 billion US dollars, Boeing's 12 billion US dollars and Cisco's 370 US dollars. Don't you think it's too exaggerated? "

"IBM lost $5 billion last year before its share price fell sharply. Boeing was dragged down by the global economic downturn. What's more, the stock price reflects the future development potential of a company. IBM and Boeing have already passed the rising period. "

Sandra thought about it and asked, "you mean IBM and Boeing share prices are at their lowest ebb."

"Yes."

"Then can I copy the bottom?"

“……”

"You see," said Sandra with a very expert appearance, "IBM and Boeing are at the bottom. I'm buying now, and I may make more than double in the next few years. Cisco and AOL have a market value of more than $30 billion. I don't think 50 billion can be any higher. Hehe, it's said in the newspaper, and it may collapse at any time. "

Simon nodded approvingly and waved to Alison not far away: "a, please remind me to buy another $100 million of Boeing stock next Monday."

A girl feels a little puzzled. A few days ago, Simon asked her to hand over a memorandum to Lawrence Fink, the head of black rock asset management company, asking the other party to increase its shareholding in Boeing and other companies. At present, the absorption ratio is close to 5% that needs to be reported, and began to contact Boeing to plan to fight for board seats.

Suddenly buy another 100 million dollars. What do you mean?

Although she didn't understand, Alison didn't ask any more questions. She nodded, took out the memo in her handbag and wrote it down carefully. After confirming that her boss had no other orders, she walked away.

Sandra was even more confused. She thought Simon might be teasing her. When girl a walked away, she asked, "what did I say wrong?"

Simon shrugged: "half right?"

"Well, I'll buy some of them," he said, and then he said fiercely, "but if you lose, you'll make it up to me."

"Is meat enough?"

"Yes!"

"Forget it, it's too expensive."

"Hum!"

with a few gags, Sandra turned the topic to the movie she just made: "Stallone saw the speed of life and death, and he asked me to ask for help.""Speed of life and death" is a film recently approved by MGM. It is also a box office blockbuster in the original time and space. The original version of the film is starred by Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock. Because it's a new script, the project has been circulating among several major Hollywood studios before Simon noticed it.

When Denise Entertainment's schedule was up next year, Simon gave the project to MGM.

With "true lies" under negotiation, the two films will be MGM's main hits next year.

Simon didn't mean to change the main creator this time. What's more, he had a good relationship with kenu and Sandra. Wen Yan asked with a smile, "are you not satisfied with kenu?"

"Of course not. It's just a help. SYL's a good man."

Simon understands that Stallone is probably testing whether there are other opportunities for cooperation between the two sides. As for why she is Sandra, the girl participated in Stallone's other new film "super war police" in the first half of the year. Warner Bros. invested in it with a budget of $57 million.

Warner Bros. originally planned to release "super Warmen" at the end of the year, but the effect of the film was not so good. With the impact of the box office failure of "Jue Ling Xiong Feng", Warner Bros. changed the file to the unpopular schedule at the beginning of October, which was half abandoned.

Not only that, Simon also knows that another new film "cannonball expert", which Stallone is preparing, has also been stranded recently. Because the contract has not been confirmed in advance, it is more embarrassing than "true lies". Warner Brothers, who originally intended to take over, has put forward a request for a substantial budget cut.

Obviously, we should start by cutting Stallone's pay.

Stallone was paid $15 million for both "the great wind of the mountains" and "the super soldier.". If there are no big selling works in the next few years, it is estimated that it will also become Stallone's highest pay point.

In Simon's memory, Stallone also stepped into the club of 20 million in the most prosperous stage of Hollywood around 2000. However, his personal films and TV works no longer had a brilliant commercial performance, so that his masterpiece The Expendables was sold to many companies and no one took over.

In recent years, Simon has been suppressing the stars' pay, either overtly or covertly.

The advent of the special effects era has also suppressed the growth of stars' pay to a large extent.

In the past 20 million clubs, at least within the control of danilisi entertainment, no star can get it. At most, they can only cross the threshold in the form of sharing.

Compared with Schwarzenegger, who has the base of the terminator series, Stallone's luck is not good.

Simon is very impressed with Stallone's inspirational experience, and will not refuse to cooperate with him if he has the right opportunity, but he does not have such a project at present.

Sandra just mentioned that it's a favor. After all, it's an investment of tens of millions of dollars. She doesn't mean to participate too much.

After chatting for a while, seeing Jonathan Friedman coming up and saying hello to her agent, the girl got up wisely, only glanced at Simon when she left, because Jonathan brought a woman over, which seemed to be in line with someone's taste.

"Simon, this is Ferrar. You should know him. I remember you bought the copyright of Charlie's angel long ago, right?"

"Of course," Simon and Jonathan said, shaking hands with the woman who came with him and laughing, "Hello, Ms. Forsyte."

Flora Fossett is one of the heroines in the 1970s TV series Charlie's angel.

Wma was the only company in the 1970s, and the main creators of Charlie's angel were basically wma artists.

Although she is over 40 years old, as one of the most famous vase actresses in the 1970s, flora Fossett also belongs to the Goblins who have successfully resisted the erosion of time. No matter her figure or appearance, she is not inferior to the young girls, and she has more mature charm accumulated by years.

Women's voice is also very good, a little baby sound, but not sweet.

After greeting, flora Fossett sat down next to Simon, and her body wrapped in a light silk dress touched Simon intentionally or unconsciously.

The three chatted casually for a while. Ferra Fossett offered to ask Friedman to help introduce her. She wanted to try the role of the heroine in true lies.

Although the project is still under negotiation and many details have not been finalized, for the outside world, the film is basically under Simon's control. Even if the final cooperation fails to be achieved, Simon westero will not refuse to ask for a heroine, whether it is fox or Schwarzenegger.
