In the conference room on 66th street in the upper west side, Simon unconsciously began to pursue efficiency more and more. Fortunately, he just didn't say a word.
Everyone spoke freely, and Simon was suddenly enlightened by various proposals.
Although he can't get the online broadcasting right of the Olympic Games, igrit can take advantage of the hot topic of the Olympic Games to win the video of many previous Olympic Games. In this way, he can also select and produce all kinds of event brochures purposefully.
Another ABC executive pointed out that igritte's attempt to buy the online broadcasting rights of the video of the Olympic Games was a mistake.
Because it goes against YouTube's platform only philosophy.
It also made Simon reflect.
At the end of the discussion, Simon pointed out a Chinese idiom in the document in front of him, and if he listened to it, he would be clear.
Then it was smeared out quietly.
At the beginning of the episode, Simon appropriately let go of the discussion time of the follow-up issues. The meeting didn't end until five o'clock after work.
On the basis of some original plans, people put forward many new ideas on how to make use of the Olympic Games. As a result, Jeff Bezos, who originally planned to leave tomorrow morning, temporarily changed his itinerary and stayed until tomorrow afternoon.
At the end of the meeting, with Denise's east coast team in Greenwich Village moving here, Simon, Bezos and egger walked out of the meeting room side by side in the red brick building, which is already Denise Entertainment's east coast headquarters.
At the end of the discussion, egger said, "Simon, the teams on both sides will hold a reception in the evening. Are you coming?"
Simon shook his head. "Dinner appointment, Mickey Cantor."
On the other side, Jeff Bezos heard the name and said subconsciously, "the new secretary of Commerce?"
"Yes."
If it wasn't for an appointment, I wouldn't get off work on time today. I'm sure I would have to arrange some more work.
It's still about Simon's upcoming trip to China.
Everything is ready on the westrow side, but something is wrong on the Washington side. Just at the beginning of this month, on April 3, commerce minister Ron Brown and his party, who led a US trade and investment delegation to visit the Balkans, encountered an air crash in Croatia, killing all 35 people on board.
There are few stories about the front and behind the scenes and conspiracies of this air crash. Anyway, there are many strange things about Clinton's eight years in office. Just last Friday, April 12, the president signed the appointment of a new minister of Commerce, Mickey Cantor, with great efficiency.
This is Mr. President's confidant. He once served as president of Clinton's campaign team during the 1992 general election. After Clinton took office, he was appointed as U.S. trade representative, responsible for participating in major federal international economic affairs such as the negotiations on the formation of the WTO and the auto trade between the United States and Japan.
Simon looked at each other's information.
The evaluation is average.
Mickey Kant, a lawyer, is a good player in politics, but not in economy. The typical example is Mickey Kant's automobile trade negotiation between the United States and Japan.
The two major U.S. trade negotiations in the last two decades are all aimed at Japan. The first is the semiconductor trade negotiations between the U.S. and Japan. Although the U.S. did not take advantage of the domestic semiconductor industry in the end, it hit Japan's semiconductor industry hard and indirectly led to the rise of Korea's semiconductor industry.
Then there was the US Japan auto trade negotiation last year.
This time, although the two sides reached an agreement at the last minute, the United States was defeated. Japan has kept its auto industry, which is still strong many years later, while the domestic auto industry in the United States continues to decline. This negotiation may be due to the fact that the Japanese have learned the lessons of the semiconductor industry and resolutely did not give in. The failure of the US delegation's negotiation strategy is also an important reason.
It was Mickey Kanter who was in charge of the negotiation.
Simon loved it.
When dealing with the government, Simon likes to be more mediocre. Although people who can climb to the core of state power are not too simple minded, they are more mediocre than those who are too smart.
The three chatted and entered the elevator with several attendants.
This is the 10th floor of the building. When the elevator goes down to the 8th floor, it opens again. A group of well-dressed and well-made women show up in front of you. They only look at Cathy Hilton and Chris Jenna, who are obviously the stars of New York's wife. The women were chatting with each other until they found Simon in the elevator. They stopped talking and looked at each other.
There was no time to say hello. Chris Jenna was the first to respond. In addition to Simon, egger and Bezos, there were five other people in the elevator, including girl A. it seemed that there were two more people in the elevator. Chris Jenna grabs a position, and Cathy Hilton, who is closest to the elevator door, blinks a little, and then comes in.
Directly to a man turned around, Chris Jenna toward the elevator a few people: "I'm sorry, we wait for the next one."
Then he reached for the elevator door.As the elevator began to go down again, no matter what the people who had just been pulled down thought, Chris Jenna turned, looked at Simon and said, "Mr. westrow, nice to see you again."
Simon also showed a smile: "yes, you today?"
Chris Jenna said: "this season of" New York wife "is coming to an end. Let's record an interview."
"Oh, I've seen the ratings report. It's a great season."
"Thank you."
Seeing Chris Jenna chatting with Simon, Cathy Hilton, who has been fighting with each other since she joined New York wife, soon got rid of her hesitation and said, "Simon, I hear you are going to visit China soon?"
"Oh, even you know?"
For this matter, Simon actually wanted to keep a low profile as much as possible, but he failed to keep a low profile after all.
Chris Jenna immediately grabbed the conversation: "I heard that China is great. I'd like to see it if I have a chance. Simon, where do you think I should go first when I go to China?"
Simon felt the smell of the woman's perfume in front of her body, which was obviously mixed with some different meanings. The subconscious glanced at the other's chest, and casually said, "actually, I don't know much about it, but the Great Wall must not miss it."
Chris Jenna noticed the man's eyes and smile a little more charming. She was about to go on when the elevator door opened.
This is the first floor underground.
Robert egger and Jeff Bezos are very smart automatic Dodgers. Simon has two bodyguards besides girl a, as well as Chris Jenna and Cathy Hilton.
Looking at the two women around him who didn't know whether they were real or pretended to be hesitant, Simon asked, "did you drive?"
Chris Jenna didn't hesitate: "no, the parking space here is very tight. We came by taxi. Simon, can you give us a lift?"
"Of course." And then he went as like as two peas in the same black Mercedes Benz. The bodyguard had pulled one of the doors open, and Simon again beckoned to the two woman: "you can take that car, and the driver will take you home."
Simon, who pays attention to safety, is now surrounded by at least a group of four bodyguards, so he can travel in at least two cars.
But Chris Jenna said, "Simon, can I have a ride with you and have a chat?"
"We don't have to be on our way."
"It must be on the way."
When Simon got on the bus, and there was no objection, Chris Jenna glanced at Cathy Hilton and followed the other side of the door that the bodyguard had opened.
Kathy Hilton, who had been on tenterhooks for a long time after that time, had planned to take another car. She was finally swept by Chris Jenna and was stimulated, so she simply followed her. Chris Jenna in the carriage saw her coming and patted the middle armrest of the back seat of the luxury car with pride: "if you want to come up, you can only take the co pilot."
Just then, a girl has been on the co pilot.
Chris Jenna was even more proud and raised her eyebrows. However, she soon heard the man next to her say, "you are both women. It's OK to squeeze."
Cathy Hilton, a gold digger who can marry into a rich family, is just better than Chris Jenna. Just now, she just couldn't make up her mind because of some scruples. At this time, she was provoked by Chris Jenna and pushed her in.
When the car started, Simon looked at the two women crowded together, put on the back seat and front fender, and said to them, "I have an appointment to have dinner together at six. It's more important. You're not suitable for each other, but you can have dinner in another place over there later. It's a club."
The two women who were close to each other looked at each other. Chris Jenna opened her mouth first and gave the man a casual look: "Simon, I'm not in a hurry to go back after dinner."
Simon smiles and looks at this mature woman in her early 40s who still keeps her fair skin and doesn't go astray: "by the way, did you have a baby last year?"
"A girl," Chris Jenna said, "actually I But Bruce wants children. "
Simon's eyes crossed the woman again subconsciously: "what's the name?"
"Kendall," Chris Jenna said, "it's Bruce's name, which means" valley of light ". It's a bit strange. In fact, I think it's nice to call it Kelly or something, but after all, he's the father of the child."
"Actually, it's good. I prefer distinctive names."
Simon said that with a somewhat queer expression.
Kendal Jenna.
After his appearance, many things have changed. Moreover, with the probability of certain things, except for one name, this kendou will no longer be that kendou. After the summer of 1986, it is probably so. But if you think about it again, unlike Robert Kardashian, the father of the three sisters, who is mediocre and somewhat ugly, Chris Jenna, a stewardess, and Bruce Jenna, an Olympic champion, the child's face is certainly not bad.Kendou and Kelly used to be the top beauties in "walking with the Kardashian family". Kendou was the only one that Kardashian family could see when they were young. As for Kelly, she turned herself into the style of second sister Kim.
Chris Jenna actually noticed something strange in Simon's expression, but she didn't go into it. On the contrary, after hearing the man's words, she had another idea: "Simon, I heard that Dakota Johnson, the daughter of Don Johnson and Melanie Griffith, was named by you. You, um, everyone said that you are the godfather of that girl?"
Chris mentioned that Simon thought of this little gossip that was widely spread in Hollywood.
Just like Spielberg used to have a lot of goddaughters, because he named a little guy and attended each other's baptism ceremony, it gradually spread that Simon was the godfather of Dakota Johnson. Think about the little girl, who is seven years old and hasn't seen her many times. Simon, however, is too lazy to clarify.
Mainly Well, someone actually likes to be a dad.
Chris Jenna saw Simon just smile, no objection, body inclined a little bit: "Simon, you should be in the east coast recently, maybe, how about tomorrow, I plan to hold a party at home, are you interested, by the way can see kendou, a very lovely little guy."
Simon shook his head this time. "I'll be back on the West Coast tomorrow morning."
Chris Jenna thought it was a pretext: "if I remember right, melisandro is listed on the 19th, you should be in it?"
"Yes, but come back then."
Simon is really busy recently. He will fly to San Francisco tomorrow, return to Los Angeles, and come back to New York on Friday to attend melisandro's premiere. Then, we will leave for China on Saturday and arrive on Sunday local time. We can't rest until next week's Monday and Tuesday.
In fact, many people in the elite class are in such a flying state that they spend most of the year in the air. Simon is quite good.
Of course, I've also thought about not running like this. It's just that some things can't be done just by thinking about them. The stall of westrow system is too big now. Even if Simon doesn't care about the profit and loss of some money, if he doesn't care about it, he will be a quitter. It's very likely that some unexpected emergencies will cause domino effect.
The collapse of many large enterprises is due to the slack of the leader.
Of course, the situation will not always be like this. The main reason is that the westero system is too conspicuous now, and the industrial layout is still relatively concentrated. For example, technology and entertainment account for a large proportion. If you dare to let go of financial business, it will become a big bomb at any time. However, as long as the integration strategy of the westero system and the U.S. economy is implemented smoothly, the deeper this matter is promoted, the more Simon can get rid of the complicated affairs.
At that time, the risk of the westero system will be the risk of the United States. The risk of the dollar kidnapping the world, and then the whole world. In order to avoid the risk spreading to themselves, countless people will actively or passively safeguard the interests of the westero system.
Chris Jenna didn't expect too much to invite Simon. She insisted a little and gave up. Instead, she said, "by the way, Simon, the irec-10 recently released by tincobail, and the activities on YouTube. I also took some videos here and uploaded them. The hits are pretty good. Can this aspect really be further developed?"
Irec-10 digital camera was on sale on April 5, but it's only 10 days now.
However, in 10 days, including the stock of 2 million units which were sold out on the first day of sale and the overtime supplement of tincobail supply chain, the global sales volume has exceeded 2.5 million units.
Because this is an Internet hardware peripheral, and the cooperation between Tinkerbell and igritte means that millions of video creators have been created all of a sudden. Even if ordinary users have capacity restrictions on the YouTube platform, after all, they can clear and delete, and even if it's a big deal, they can also register a few more numbers. Therefore, these days, the content increment has suddenly ushered in a blowout, including no access The number of users who only browse the website for video creation has also increased significantly.
Many people see business opportunities as a result.
On elite side, under Simon's guidance, grace has started the online celebrity training program through her new media operation Department, which has been established for more than a year.
Unlike instagram platform, which can only be cashed out through marketing cooperation, YouTube can directly obtain advertising share. Of course, marketing cooperation is also a big head. Now it is decisive to enter the market, and it can also seize more resources before many other people react.
In the original time and space, it was not until the era of mobile Internet that the Internet red economy became popular. Before that, there was no shortage of Internet red, but it was usually difficult to realize.
In the final analysis, there is still a lack of mature business model.
Now, Simon has directly opened up ideas for grace, such as how to cultivate online celebrities, how to cash in traffic, how to bring goods, including social platform and video platform. In the future, maybe just relying on the YouTube platform, elite will be able to cultivate a series of online celebrities with annual income of tens of millions.At present, the income of the top models is just like this.
This is also a good direction for elite to diversify from a simple model agency. After all, other people have been working hard on actors and sports for a long time, and it must be the blue ocean market of Internet that is more suitable for horse racing.
Moreover, as long as elite is successful, there will certainly be a large number of followers.
These content creators can benefit from the Internet, but also nurture the entire Internet Ecology.
Inside the car.
Simon asked Chris Jenna, thinking that the kardashians were everywhere, which was also the content, so he didn't mind asking for a few words: "of course, this is a better opportunity. Different from the regional limitations of the television industry, the Internet is global. At present, the number of Internet users in the world has reached 500 million, which is almost twice the total population of the United States. Moreover, it is also the most powerful upper middle class group of consumers. If you look at the market value of igritte, you should understand the vast business opportunities in this field. "
Chris Jenna's eyes lit up when Simon said that, and even Cathy Hilton, who was squeezed on the edge, could not help but prick her ears.
"But, Simon, I don't know what to do. Can you tell me?"
"If you go back and study the channel classification of YouTube carefully, it's already very clear. Different channels, such as fashion, food, fitness, travel, and so on, as long as they firmly grasp the point, patiently study the needs of users, and seriously produce the content they want to watch, as long as they accumulate millions of subscriptions, their income will definitely be much more than that of you now participating in reality shows. "
Kathy Hilton finally added, "Simon, what do you think we should do?"
"It's very simple. It's a reality show. You must be quite familiar with it now. Of course, it will definitely conflict with the program you are participating in now, but in fact, you just need to be flexible, "Simon said, pointing to Cathy Hilton." for example, if you don't open a decoration design studio, make a real show around this theme. This should belong to the home channel. You need to think about the specific production ideas. The key is that you can't be rigid and professional, and the audience won't like it. "
If Cathy Hilton has a clue.
Chris Jenna couldn't wait to ask, "Simon, what about me?"
Simon looked at the woman, but had some bad taste: "you have four daughters now?"
"Well Well
"Try a reality show around your daughters. In addition, because it is a network platform, the degree of freedom is very high and the cost is very low. You can shoot with a hand-held camera at home. At most, you can hire a professional video. In the later stage, the video of each issue doesn't need to be too long. If it's too long, no one will watch it. It's about ten minutes. "
Chris Jenna continued: "Simon, I still don't quite understand. How to do it?"
Simon said, "get a camera and pull your daughter out: Hi, everyone. I'm Kim Kardashian. My dog has a baby. Let's take a look."
“……”
“……”
Two women next to him have a black question mark on their head.
What the hell is this?
Simon added, "well, change one, get a camera and pull your daughter out: Hi, everyone. I'm Paris Hilton. In this video, I'd like to share a delicious dish, carbon grilled chicken wings."
“……”
“……”
Well, it's not teachable.
It's a pity that such a good idea is wasted. Simon no longer cares about the two dumb women. He takes out his cell phone and dials up. After a moment, grace obviously lowers her voice and says with joy, "Simon, how can you remember to call me?"
"It's a sudden inspiration. Come on, I'll teach you."
Repeat that.
Grace obviously had too many answers than the two women beside her. She agreed with a smile that she would try to find someone as soon as possible, and sent a sample to Simon to see first.
Although I don't know who Simon is talking to, Chris Jenna and Cathy Hilton are paying close attention to the man beside him.
After all, that's Simon westero's advice.
Even if it sounds unreliable, what if?
What's more, as men say, the cost is very low, even if the failure is nothing.
It happens that this season of "New York wife" is coming to an end, followed by the summer break. A few months, enough toss, they are smart enough and not short of ambition woman, also not short of daughter, pull out one or two, try not less meat.
