Hollywood New Century - Chapter 431
Throughout September, Simon basically stayed in Hong Kong, and RB and South Korea also stayed for a while.
At the same time, it spent 70 million yuan to purchase a 15,000-foot antique luxury courtyard house in Shunyi District, BJ;
In addition to giving some movie suggestions to Galaxy Entertainment, we also remind them to store IPs such as novels and games as soon as possible, and complete the industrial layout as soon as possible.
It wasn’t until the end of September that Simon flew to London, as West Ham’s first Champions League home game was about to begin.
It is also the second game of West Ham’s Champions League match. In mid-month, the away game against Bundesliga team Dortmund is the first game.
It is a pity that in the first game, West Ham United played 1:1 with Dortmund on the road. This time they played Olympiacos at home, they must be full of confidence.
In the afternoon, Simon appeared in the main stand at London’s Upton Park to watch how West Ham beat Olympiacos.
“The stadium is still too small, full of fans, and many fans can’t get into the stadium,” Simon sighed, thinking in his heart that the previous London riots seem to have passed the impact?
“Boss, rest assured, West Ham United’s loan to London Olympic Stadium is only a matter of signing, and Upton Park is no longer worthy of our achievements,” Karen Brady, the head of the club, persuaded in a low voice.
“The development of the West Ham United club can effectively drive the economic development of this area and help eliminate conflicts.”
Simon nodded and said again: “At that time, we must convince the city government to rebuild the stadium as soon as possible, so that the Olympic Stadium can become a football field suitable for our professional competition as soon as possible.”
After the London Olympics next year, the Olympic Stadium will be rebuilt, which is another big project. It is estimated that it will take another two years to wait.
“I understand, now that we West Ham United are also a strong team in the Premier League, the club’s fan club has a lot more power and more contributions, and the Olympic Stadium is also idle after the Olympic Games, the parliament will not waste such a large space, not only Waste of land and money to maintain the stadium,” Karen Brady seemed confident.
Simon felt better when he heard it. And after West Ham United achieved such good results last season, there has also been a lot of progress in business development.
With the help of Jiutou Sports and Entertainment in the United States, there are more and more industry sponsors in cooperation with West Ham United. Good grades are indeed a strong guarantee of business progress.
There was no suspense in the game. West Ham United won Olympiacos 2-0 at home with two goals from Suarez and Neymar.
And the German beauty Sarah Bradna, who has been with Simon for a few years, has now been transferred to the Nine Head Birds Sports and Entertainment Company, not only for West Ham United, but also for the New York Avengers and the Miami Dolphins.
Sarah Bradna is already Simon’s personal sports business assistant, and the NFL has started, but the NBA is still on hold. No summer leagues, and certainly no preseason games now.
Now that the time of the regular season is getting closer and closer, both employers and employees in the NBA need to make efforts. Sarah Bradner has been in the United States for Simon to monitor the progress of the negotiations between the labor and management.
It seems that there is no good news. All players have signed contracts with other national leagues to join and play games.
Canary Wharf Financial City, Simon sat on the sofa, stared at the falling rain outside the window, and sighed softly.
“Laura, get ready to go home. The NBA labor-management agreement is always a matter of distribution of interests between the owner and the players.” Simon was upset that the New York Avengers only won the championship last season, and this season is coming.
“Boss, it’s time to go back, the company’s listing road show, and the boss needs to go back to increase investors’ confidence!” Laura Collins is actually very excited. The listing of Xinghai Entertainment is definitely a big deal, and many old employees have certain Equity awards.
And Laura Collins, an old assistant around Simon Pike, of course, also has it, and Laura Collins himself is very satisfied.
“Roadshow, Universal Pictures’ achievements, those investors should be looking forward to it.” Simon is confident, and other investors are also confident.
The box-office bombing of Marvel franchises; the massive expansion of Universal Studios resorts; NBC’s ratings growth; and the surge in subscriptions triggered by the epic “Game of Thrones” airing on Netflix.
“By the way, is there any film of value at this year’s Venice Film Festival?” Simon asked. The value is, of course, commercial, not artistic.
Laura Collins shook her head and explained: “Ms. Langley just bought the black-and-white silent film “The Great Artist” that shined at the Cannes Film Festival before. I heard that you are more optimistic about the boss!”
“There aren’t any other independent films coming out this year, but this month’s ‘Bad Teacher’ was a good box office.”
Simon laughed: “That Cameron Diaz R-rated comedy movie?”
Laura Collins nodded, and **** Cameron Diaz was flirtatious and still very marketable.
“The opening result was 32 million US dollars. Now it has been released for about half a month, and the box office has exceeded 75 million US dollars. It is very stable. It is predicted that it will exceed 100 million US dollars in North America,” Laura Collins still remembers these clearly,
“It’s similar to “Bridesmaids” previously released by Universal, but “Bridesmaids” is based on “Saturday Night Live” and has a global box office of 290 million US dollars. “Bad Teacher” is not comparable to “Bridesmaids”.”
“Bridesmaids” is a comedy film released by Universal in May this year, similar to the female version of “The Hangover”. Many of the main creators are resident film and television staff of NBC’s variety show “Saturday Night Live”.
But one thing in common is that “Bad Teacher” and “Bridesmaids” are both low-cost comedians, and now the box office is very profitable.
However, although the budget of “Bad Teacher” is only 20 million US dollars, Cameron Diaz bought shares with the salary, and her income will be considerable after the film is drawn.
“Laura, remember to remind Alan to speed up the signing of the film distribution agreement with DreamWorks Animation.” There is no good news yet, Simon is still a little worried that DreamWorks Animation will be cut off by 20th Century Fox and them. signed a distribution agreement.
“OK!”
