Chapter 924

Name:Hollywood Hunter Author:Just Do
In addition to the public two-day itinerary, Simon's trip to China is planned for a total of two weeks. After Yangshuo, I had planned to visit other places. However, the landscape is so beautiful that there is no need to pay attention to the secondary scenery.

So I stayed for five days.

Daily boating, dancing, mountaineering, tea indulge in pleasures without stop.

The last stop before leaving is Zhuhai in southern Sichuan.

It's mainly that Janet wants to see it.

Ang Lee began to conceive the script of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon when he was shooting "drinking, eating, men and women" in 1993. It was only because the conditions of all parties were not mature that it was shelved. After the last meeting, Ang Lee stopped preparing for "ice storm" and began to turn to this film. Because many details had been brewing for a long time, he only completed the first draft of the script in more than a week and sent it to Simon.

When Janet accompanied Simon to read the script on the terrace of another courtyard, she saw the scene of the bamboo forest war in crouching tiger, hidden dragon which was sketched by the man on the manuscript paper, and heard Simon talk about the vast and magnificent scenery of the bamboo sea, which gave birth to the interest of shifting positions.

In a word, with the release of Crouching Tiger, hidden dragon, China's bamboo sea landscape became famous both at home and abroad for a while, became a holy place for many domestic and foreign tourists to punch in, and gradually evolved into one of the national tourism business cards. However, there are many opinions about where to shoot the bamboo sea war in crouching tiger, hidden dragon.

Because there are many bamboo sea landscapes in China, Shunan Bamboo Sea is just one of them.

Simon doesn't have time for that.

Now that we have come to the bamboo sea in southern Sichuan, we can make a decision directly.

This vast bamboo sea, covering an area of more than 120 square kilometers, has not only natural bamboo scenery, but also Qifeng mountain, river and Jinghu Lake under the creation of heaven and earth, as well as ancient temples, pavilions and buildings under the accumulation of thousands of years of history, which can fully meet all the needs of setting scenes in crouching tiger, hidden dragon.

So after arriving, Simon had a group of photos taken and passed them to Ang Lee.

In fact, all the details, including the determination of Yu Jiaolong's actor in person, are to save the preparation time. There is no need to worry about these trivial things, so Ang Lee has more time to polish the film carefully.

May 4th, Saturday.

Seeing the scenery of the bamboo sea, this trip to China has come to an end.

Come and return.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, the private Boeing 767 of the Westeros family set out from Chengdu and flew directly to Los Angeles on the other side of the ocean without any stop. Chen Qing and others, who had been with Simon and his wife during this period, stayed in China for the time being to deal with the follow-up. Before that, the core of the westero system that visited China last week has all returned, including the US government delegation headed by the Secretary of Commerce.

Boeing 767 cabin.

After two weeks of rest, Simon is expected to return to work after a 15 hour flight.

"The cooperation agreement between Levison group and Hilton Hotel Group has been reached and will be signed next Monday. In recent days, Wal Mart contacted Levison group to discuss the establishment of a Beijing Branch in Levison International Center. Levison group has a dispute about this project. Wal Mart's presence will bring a large number of customers, but it will also lower the style of Levison International Center. In addition, there is also a list of all the enterprises that have reached the intention to enter. "

"The Chinese side basically agrees with Mr. Mickey Kanter's three conditions on the film industry, and is expected to implement them together with China's latest" Regulations on the administration of films "by the end of this month. Boss, I've got an internal manuscript of the film Administration Ordinance. The formal provisions should not change much. I've marked some of the provisions that need attention. "

"Verizon's first version of its prospectus is scheduled to be submitted to the SEC next week, and the relevant documents are also marked."

"Emmanuel Brandt has completed the negotiation of the residents around the location of the headquarters of fusion times, and can start planning the construction. In addition, there are the latest batch of resumes of candidates entering the final interview process. I helped my boss arrange the personal interview schedule for next Wednesday."

"Kevin Watson, an engineer of SpaceX, has proposed a plan to build a simulated rocket launch system, which can integrate all the hardware and software equipment needed for rocket launch into the simulation system for thousands of virtual launches, so as to test the performance of components with the lowest cost. The engineer proposed the plan while he was at NASA, and it was rejected many times. However, the SpaceX team agreed that the program is very practical and can help test most of SpaceX's self-made accessories, and together, they reduced the initial $7 million budget to, um 1.2 million dollars. Among them, Watson has compiled a set of space control software with a budget of only $10000, which has successfully passed the test of NASA protocol and can be used in this simulation system and real rockets in the future. I've checked that NASA's minimum budget for several similar projects in previous years was $10 million. "

"This information comes from the coffee plantation in Angola, Africa. According to the report of Victor merisis, the first batch of 50000 acres of coffee seedlings had been planted there by the end of April, with a total cost of 7.35 million US dollars. It is estimated that the remaining 100000 acres of land will be planted in the same period next year, because this year has laid the foundation for the purchase of agricultural machinery, manpower training and so on On the basis of this, Mr. merissis expects to complete the rest of the land development next year with only $10 million. In addition, before the first batch of coffee was harvested in 1999, about 5 million US dollars would have to be invested each year. ""Mr. Anthony Johnston has sent a tender document for the privatization of vale in Brazil. The Japanese side is very determined on this tender and is expected to become the main competitor of Johnston holdings. I suggest the boss try to use Washington's contacts. Now that the US Japan trade relations are tense, Washington certainly does not want Japan to control a large mining giant."

"Igrit has reached an agreement with the International Olympic Committee to broadcast videos of previous Olympic Games on YouTube. The YouTube platform does not pay for it, but promises to promote resources and give long-term advertising share. In addition, igritte recently talked about more than 150 top athletes in various fields entering the YouTube platform. "

"Also, well, an email from the White House is still asking the boss about the recent trend of NASDAQ. This should be the continuation of the phone call made by Mr. President a few days ago. Yesterday, the NASDAQ index had reached 3925 points and was about to break 4000 points. The White House should be very anxious about this."

“……”

"Finally, in Hollywood, independence day, which is in charge of by Emmerich, will be launched next week. In Los Angeles, there is a pre launch reception hosted by MGM tonight, which is mainly for the investors of the first batch of packaged projects including independence day. Ms. Lansing hopes that the boss can attend this evening."

"The tornado crew has moved into Iowa and will be shooting next week."

"The set of Titanic on the gold coast of Australia has been set up, but Mr. Cameron has some ideas about special effects. He is experimenting with Denise's special effects team, and the shooting date is postponed to next month."

"Well, here's a list of movie schedules for this year's summer program."

Simon sat at his desk in the front study, listening to girl a's quick introduction of the list of documents he needed to review. There were also two piles of documents piled up on the desk in front of him that he couldn't read all the way.

When girl a finally stopped reporting, Simon had finished reading the first enterprise document about Levison International Center, raised his pen, marked a few words on it, handed it to Alison and said, "tell Levison group that Wal Mart must win this project, we don't need to compare with the international trade center to locate this boring thing."

A girl nodded, but said: "boss, I think we can neutralize it. We can put Wal Mart on the ground floor. There are such underground supermarkets in New York and London. They can make the most of the space and the rent is quite affordable. I think Wal Mart, which attaches great importance to cost control, will certainly be willing to do so, and the aboveground part can still maintain the entry specifications of Levison International Center. "

Simon has just opened the second "film regulations" document. Wen Yan looks up at Alison and says with a smile, "I think you should be in charge of this project. There are a group of idiots over there."

A girl with the curved corners of her mouth, but no words.

At present, Levison International Center is only a preliminary plan. The specific design should start after the potential users are determined. There are still two years left before the actual construction. It's easy to add an extra supermarket on the ground floor. After a little consideration, Simon nodded and said, "that's it. Tell the other side that I put forward this idea. Let those idiots reflect on what they have done So I'm the super rich. "

"All right, boss."

"Besides, I'll go to the cocktail party you just mentioned in the evening to have a look."

The west coast of the United States is just 15 hours later than China. Simon arrived in Los Angeles, where it is still Saturday afternoon, and the evening reception will not be delayed.

Girl a quickly wrote it down on the memo again.

Simon thought about it, and then said, "as for the further reform of China's film industry, it's no surprise that China film takes the lead in setting up the first cinema line. You ask Amy to contact China Film and take the initiative to invite them to visit the United States. The Oden cinema line of danielis entertainment is responsible for reception, and it can also provide them with cinema management system software. "

Instead of nodding, Alison said, "boss, I think we can go to a higher level and invite the top management of China's Radio and Television Department in charge of the film and television industry to make an investigation, so as to directly promote the networking of China's cinema ticketing system. I have studied some information about China's cinema industry these days. Because it is basically state-owned, this can be achieved without relying on the cinema line system. Moreover, China's basic communication network has run through the whole country. The Shanghai data center, which will be opened soon, can provide data storage and information processing support for this project. There are no obstacles in terms of software and hardware. China is now eager to promote the development of the information industry. The completion of this project will also be a brilliant achievement for the officials in charge. "

"At the same time, it will offend a lot of people," Simon thought about the local cinema where the ticketing system was connected to the Internet and he was gnashing his teeth because he couldn't steal the box office, but he didn't hate himself anyway, so he said, "that's it. In addition, remember to tell the other side that I put forward this idea, so I am a super rich man. "

Girl a glanced at someone and wrote it down on the memo.

Simon has quickly looked at the clause in the "Regulations on the administration of films" in his hand, which is marked in red ink that "the annual time of domestic films shown by projection units shall not be less than 2 / 3 of the total annual time of films shown". He feels that Alison looks at herself again and says with a smile, "so, do you have any suggestions about the email from the White House?"Girl a shook her head this time: "Na Zhi is out of control now. Our best choice is not to interfere. Otherwise, once the improper operation leads to the crash, no one can bear the responsibility. "

"Then you can help me respond to Mr. President, saying that I am very optimistic about the future trend of the NASDAQ. Anyway, he only hopes that the NASDAQ will survive through November, as long as the Republican side does not jump out to make trouble, it should be no problem."

"Boss, it's enough to say only half of it, not later."

"Of course, should I remind you? It's stupid. No wonder I can only be a little assistant to a super rich man like me. "

Girl a pretends to be angry and pours at someone. She continues to write it down on the memo and looks at Simon again.

Simon's eyes had fallen back to the documents in front of him: "that's all for the time. I'll wait until I see the others."

Alison answered, turned and quietly left the study.

During the meal, Janet went to sleep and came to see Simon. Simon was still sitting at his desk. Ten hours after the flight, he was rushed to bed.

By the time Janet woke up again, the plane was already over the west coast of the United States.

After a brief cleaning, we found a fixed seat and fastened the seat belt. The Boeing 767 began to lower its height and landed on the runway of Los Angeles International Airport a few minutes later.

After two weeks away, I didn't feel like returning to my hometown for a long time. On the contrary, I was a little bit absent from home.

The security team and the maid guard who had been traveling for two weeks had a holiday on the spot. The new team sent by domay point manor took over the follow-up, and Jennifer also came to meet her. Janet hugged her affectionately and talked about all kinds of interesting things about her trip to China. Simon remembered to ask how are the five little guys doing?

Of course not.

It's Veronica who's at home watching before she comes to pick someone up.

Yeah.

Simon and his wife are not here. Veronica has come from Australia specially and has been helping to look after the children at domay point manor for the past half a month.

Sophia also came to stay for a few days.

Because it's Saturday, all at home.

Melbourne is still with Veronica.

Seattle is still very cold, holding a large encyclopedia that does not fit her age.

Little Nick still has a tendency to use his white teeth on everything.

The last pair of twins still remember their father. When Simon picked them up, they even took the initiative to shout. Sure enough, their IQ seems to be a little bit higher than those of their two brothers, but they can't compare with their second sister. It's very good.

She spent a happy afternoon with her family, accompanied the children to open presents, talked about the latest trifles with Jennifer, and made a decent inspection of her eldest son's recent homework. In the evening, they had a boisterous dinner together.

It wasn't until eight o'clock in the evening that girl a came to ask if she wanted to go to a cocktail party.

Barely to century city.

After all, this reception is about Simon's packaging plan designed for overseas film capital after the box office fiasco of cut throat island. The behind the scenes investors, as the helmsman, always show their confidence.

Of the five projects, "alien 2" has already started shooting and is expected to be released next Easter. Roland Emmerich's "Independence Day" is the top priority of next year's summer program, followed by Robert zemigs's "beyond time contact" at the end of next year.

This is three of the first five package plans.

According to the project plan, the remaining two films will be selected next year and released in 1998.

But it's almost certain that they're all blockbusters.

The whole plan is also the focus of MGM's operation in the next few years, except for the secret agent movie universe. As long as it goes ahead smoothly, MGM will be able to completely restore its vitality which was exhausted in the 1980s, and even realize the anti super of Disney, Sony and other companies.
