Chapter 707: 711

The original time line, which is basically copying the routine of instinct, can be described as a "powerful" creative team.

The film is directed by William Fredkin, who once directed Exorcist and French drug trafficking network, written by Joe ezerthaas, the creator of instinct, and the heroine is Linda Fiorentino. The production cost of the film is as high as $50 million.

It's a pity that Joe ezerthaas's "jade flame" and "showgirl" both failed at the box office in 1995. The famous screenwriter, who was once sought after by Hollywood, has been reduced to the level of no one's interest and never turned over.

Simon and Jonathan talked about the play for another reason.

William Friedkin is the husband of sherry Lansing, MGM's director.

Hollywood is not used to some people's habit of eating a movie for a lifetime. William Friedkin once directed the phenomenal Exorcist. At that time, it was not only a box office hit in the world, but also the first horror movie in Hollywood history to get an Oscar nomination for best picture.

Time has changed, but now William Friedkin is completely out of breath, and even has no money to eat. He can only work as a director of TV series most of the time.

Since she is a husband and wife, Shirley Lansing of course has to think about her husband. She has been trying to recommend Friedkin to direct some projects over the years. Because of the fashion trend in recent years, and she is also good at it, Lansing also takes a fancy to jade flame this time, hoping that Fredkin can turn over.

Simon attaches great importance to Shirley Lansing, a rare female executive in Hollywood history, but it is impossible to invest in such a project with a large budget and doomed to failure.

MGM, which has just regained its vitality, can't stand such hardships.

Since Simon lacks interest in this project, Jonathan doesn't mention it any more. Instead, he says, "the review of Disney's acquisition in Washington should be completed by next month at the latest. Vivendi is not satisfied with the current management. They should try to dig people from you, right?"

Simon nodded and asked with a smile, "Vivendi contacted you, too?"

In recent half a year, Jeffrey carsenberg has left, Michael Eisner has resigned because of illness, Frank wells is about to retire, and three executives who brought Disney from decline to prosperity in the 1980s have been swept away. Vivendi, who is about to win Disney, is not satisfied with other current executives of the company. During this period, Vivendi has begun to look for a place for the big film company A leader.

At present, the most powerful entertainment in Hollywood is undoubtedly the top priority.

However, the traditional concept of "prefer to be a chicken head" is right. It's a pity that there is a big difference between Disney and Denise, and it's still a mess. The core of Denise entertainment can basically see the future industry trend of Hollywood. There is no reason to jump into a broken bowl even if you want to share a big bowl with some people.

As for those who are willing to change jobs, Vivendi doesn't look up to them.

Besides danielis, some famous independent producers or senior managers of brokerage companies are also suitable target candidates.

Michael owitz was a good choice.

This time, however, Michael owitz is far from the top of Hollywood's power list. Moreover, because Eisner had sent an invitation to owitz before, the two sides almost reached an agreement. Then Vivendi launched a takeover of Disney. As a diehard who opposed Vivendi's takeover of Disney, Eisner was out of the game, and owitz, who had a good personal relationship with Eisner, was also involved. Naturally, it was impossible to get this position again.

Then, Jonathan, who has a good relationship with Simon, is undoubtedly another suitable target.

Jonathan listened to Simon's question and nodded, "yes, but I've already refused."

Jonathan Friedman would have loved to be able to run a big Hollywood studio without danielis entertainment.

The brokerage company seems to be prosperous. In the final analysis, it's still a job of serving people. Even if you hold the shares of a brokerage company, the price of the enterprise itself will not be too high because the talent agency company lacks fixed assets. In contrast, running a big film company is the real power.

This is also the main reason why Michael owitz was willing to give up his position as "the first person on the Hollywood power list" in the original time and space and switch to Disney's second leader.

Now it's different.

Jonathan can also see that, compared with Denise entertainment, which has a market value of more than 100 billion and continues to expand, the other major Hollywood companies will only continue to decline in the future, and this decline is inevitably driven by Denise. Jonathan doesn't think that his personal friendship with Simon can make the young man in front of him feel free from the company he runs.

As a result, not only will Simon's help not be given to the job hopping to Disney, the friendship between the two sides in the past may vanish.

Jonathan often regrets it now, too.

At the beginning, he did not have the opportunity to join danielis entertainment. If he did, he would not only be one of the core executives of danielis entertainment, but also become a billionaire or even a billion level millionaire with the listing of danielis.In contrast, although he has become the head of wma, over the years, Jonathan's accumulated wealth can only exceed $50 million, a large part of which comes from Simon's occasional investment advice.

Simon was pleased that Jonathan could make that choice.

Disney is Simon's target.

Although he was grateful for Jonathan's help, Simon would not change danielis Entertainment's established expansion strategy for him.

The two talked about Denise's latest foreign cooperation plan and Paramount's agreement with DreamWorks. It was hard to avoid some social activities. It was not until ten o'clock in the night that Simon and Charlize Theron left Jonathan's reception and stayed in a luxury house near Beverly Hills.

The following weekend, the most noticeable news in Hollywood came from MGM.

Although there is no official announcement, the news that MGM is about to restart the 007 series and get two cooperation projects from Denise quickly spread.

James Bond's appeal goes without saying.

Moreover, along with the news of a series of restarts, and the news that MGM has gained more control over 007, these are quite significant benefits for MGM, which has been silent for a long time.

The other two projects with Denise are eye-catching.

In the 1970s, the popular TV series "baby thunderbolt" and Robert rudlund's best-selling novel series "spy".

Among the related news, "series" is undoubtedly the key word.

By analogy, Denise's 10 foreign cooperation projects this time are likely to be no longer just 10 films, but a series production like "mission impossible". Even if it can't reach the height of DC film universe, the benefits that series films can bring to the studio will be far more than a single work.

When there is no definite news, we can wait patiently.

Now, with MGM taking two projects directly, Hollywood is boiling. No matter several other studios or major talent agencies, they are more active in contacting with danilisi entertainment.

October 10, a new week.

The 1994 Forbes list of the 400 richest people in the United States was released, which immediately attracted everyone's attention.

It's just that when you see Simon westero's $300 billion personal wealth at the top of the list, many people immediately lose interest.

300 billion dollars.

Isn't this the number that many media have been hyping all this time?

What's more, Forbes magazine's ambiguity in many aspects of data processing has also attracted people's attention. We are all smart people, and naturally we can guess what happened.

Because of the rapid decline of the Hurst family in the first half of the year against the westero system, and the westero system's efforts to attract several major media groups in the United States, mainstream North American print media such as the New York Times and the Los Angeles Times did not raise much objection to the $300 billion figure. The original relatively open Internet platform, which is basically the site of the westero system, also failed to make waves.

However, some media have seen the huge gap between the first place on the list and the wealth of the subsequent rich. It is inevitable to question whether the Forbes list is necessary to continue.

There's no suspense.

You know, Simon westrow, the first one, has a personal wealth of $300 billion, while the second one, Damen, has directly fallen to $28 billion, a difference of more than 10 times. In the entire Forbes list of the 400 richest people in the United States, the total wealth of the 400 richest people is $638.3 billion, and Simon westero himself accounts for almost half of it.

Is it really necessary for other rich people on the list to have a strong sense of powerlessness?

Simon wanted to reduce the topic as much as possible, but the tree wanted to calm down.

It's only one month before the mid-term election, and it's a critical moment for the political turmoil in the United States. How can Simon, such an obvious target, escape.

With the release of the list, many politicians in the process of canvassing again picked up the topic related to Simon's personal wealth, especially those who stood on the opposite side of the westero system. They spared no effort to make public their position, threatening that after being elected, they would promote Congress to limit the uncontrolled growth of the super rich's personal wealth, and the targeted "asset tax" and other issues became a hot topic again It's hot.

Simon can make most of the mainstream media in the United States be cautious about topics related to the westero system, but it is impossible to block the mouths of all politicians, and it is impossible to affect the extremely developed and extensive local media platforms in the United States.

Simon, however, did not look on coldly.

After the release of the Forbes list, someone from the media public relations and political lobbying team of the westrow system is collecting the opinions of a bunch of politicians, who can be fostered and wooed, and who will be blacklisted. The list will be clearly remembered.

What Simon needs most is patience and time, not to mention money. It's not difficult for Simon to spend ten or eight years, even if he can't do anything in the short term, to put some politicians who oppose the westero system into the dust.For those diehards, unless they are mostly saints from childhood, Simon has enough resources to dig each other to the end. Even if there are "saints", it's not impossible to be dragged into the water. Even if they don't get into the water, their relatives and friends can't insist on not getting into the water.

In this world, no one is impeccable.

Along with the release of Forbes' fortune list, Denise Entertainment Group also released its first quarterly financial report after its IPO on Wednesday.

From July to September, 1994, Denise Entertainment Group's revenue reached US $6.708 billion, a year-on-year increase of 39%, and its quarterly net profit reached US $771 million, a year-on-year increase of 21%.

Both core numbers exceeded Wall Street's expectations.

Not only that, the financial report also listed the growth highlights of Denise Entertainment Group in core film, television, games, music and other businesses one by one. Even if many people witnessed that many phenomenal entertainment topics appeared around us in 1994 came from Denise entertainment, it is still hard to avoid shocking.

Daniels entertainment shares rose 2.3 percent on the day of the financial report. At the end of Wednesday, the Hollywood entertainment giant had a market value of $127.3 billion.

Denise Entertainment Group's closing market value was $112.8 billion on its first day of listing on July 1. In the past few months,

has always believed that the media and capital of the Danielle Entertainment Group's stock price bubble continued to fade and even bet on a lot of short sellers. As a result, the company's stock price has maintained a very strong upward trend in the three months after its listing, although it inevitably experienced shocks.

In three months, compared with the initial listing, the share price of Denise entertainment has increased by 12%, and its market value has increased from the initial $112.8 billion to $127.3 billion. From a purely numerical point of view, the increase from more than $110 billion to more than $120 billion seems not too big. But in fact, the market value increase of $14.5 billion in three months, just this one, has exceeded the market value of most enterprises in the US stock market Value.

According to Simon's 81.9% stake in danielis entertainment, his personal wealth has increased by $11.8 billion in the past quarter, and danielis Entertainment Group has brought Simon $104.3 billion in personal wealth as a whole.

On the other hand, despite the impact of the U.S. Department of justice's official anti-monopoly investigation, Cisco and AOL, the two core technology companies of the westrow system, showed a rising momentum again soon after their stock prices suffered a short setback and with the continuous surge of the Internet wave.

Two days after danielis entertainment group released its results, Cisco and AOL released their quarterly results simultaneously on Friday, October 14.

It was Simon's intention, of course.

Since the disclosure of financial reports after listing is inevitable, Simon hopes to release all relevant topics within a week.

Compared with AOL, Cisco's high growth financial report data of danilisi entertainment is even dazzling, which makes the share prices of the two companies grow by more than 3% on Friday. At the close of the day, Cisco's market value reaches 87.9 billion US dollars, which has successfully shaken off general electric, which is still the No.1 company in the US market in the first half of the year.

AOL also has a market value of $71.6 billion.

According to Simon's 46.3% stake in Cisco and 65.5% stake in AOL, the two companies contributed another $40.6 billion and $46.9 billion to Simon respectively. With the $105.6 billion contributed by danielis after the share price rose slightly again on Friday, only Simon held the shares of the three companies, with a total value of $193.1 billion.

Cisco, AOL and daenerys entertainment have already brought Simon nearly 200 billion US dollars of personal wealth. The whole westrow system includes igritte, melisandro, cersei capital, Verizon, Nokia, BHP, Microsoft, Intel, Oracle, sun and Tinkerbell How much will all this add up to?

As a result, more and more people realize that the list of wealth released by Forbes on Monday is a bit watery.
