Chapter 717： Did I say it?

Unconsciously talking for more than an hour, the door of the study was tapped, and Eva Pakula probed in.

“Eric, Vicky asked me to ask you, would you like to have a meal with you at noon?”

When Eric heard the name of Virginia, she knew that she had instructed Eva to catch someone. She looked at the watch and was near eleven o'clock. Since Virginia didn't want the two women to stay, he didn't. Good to stay, to Eva said: "No, things have been finished, Cindy and Linda just can go back to New York."

"Oh, then I said to Vicky," Eva squinted narrowly and narrowed her head back, and the door was gently closed.

"If this is the case, then go back first, I will take time to invite you to dinner," Eric stood up and said.

Cindy Crawford and Linda Ivangolin Stad certainly understand what happened, and they feel that they will do the same. They don’t feel too surprised. Of course, it’s a matter of heart.

After saying goodbye to Eric, Cindy Crawford and Linda Ivangolinsta each took their own car and left the Linhai Manor.

After a few minutes in the quiet path, I went to the East Hampton City Center. Linda Ivangolinsta saw that Cindy Crawford parked the car in front of a restaurant and stopped next to it. car.

The two women walked into the restaurant with their bags. Near lunch time, the living room was full of guests. Their temperament was very conspicuous, and they immediately attracted a look. Most of the guests only looked at them with a glance. Some people also greeted each other, and the two casual girls also boldly came together. One of them said: "Linda, Cindy, can you sign us a name?"

"Of course," the eye-catching feeling made Cindy Crawford feel better, nodded happily, took the paper and pen in the girl's hand and quickly signed it, and handed it to Linda Ivan Golinsta.

Sign the name. The two girls kept their mouths and kept talking. "I didn't expect you to live here. Jill also said that he would not meet any celebrities. Oh, we are here, the white beaches of East Hampton are really Beautiful, but unfortunately it is a bit cold now, not suitable for swimming in the water."

Linda Ivangolinsta heard the girl's first words, and the hand holding the pen paused. I quickly wrote the last few pens and returned the pen and paper to the two girls, but I didn’t have much interest in continuing to communicate with the two small fans in front of me.

Simple to deal with a few sentences, the two women found the position under the guidance of the waiter. Cindy Crawford took the menu from the waiter and looked at the recipes that were more expensive than the top restaurants in Manhattan. He licked his mouth and vented several of the most expensive dishes.

When the waiter left, Cindy Crawford complained: "What is it that we can just go back to New York? Isn't it clear that it will take two hours to drive from East Hampton to Manhattan. Come back to us. I am going to starve."

Listening to Cindy Crawford mixed with envy and unwillingness, Linda Ivangolin Stad is not so depressed, taking out the documents Eric handed them from the bag around me, leisurely Open it and arbitrarily replied: "Why didn't you dare to tell him about it, then he would be embarrassed to drive us away."

"I was too lazy to care about," Cindy Crawton snorted softly, adding no words: "Hey, he has a child, and he is really a mistress."

Linda Ivangolinta did not lift her head and turned the document over. He said: "Half a month to come up with a plan, preparations in May, three months to make the production, but also to squeeze out the time for the autumn fashion week. Then it is another big show, really Worried that you will be crazy."

Cindy Crow looked at the lunch and waited for a while before he came up. He also took out the documents in the bag and said, "This is no one to force you. If you don't want to do it, those little Bickey will definitely cry. Shouting and rushing up. As long as you don't regret it in the future, look at Naomi Campbell's movements during this time, and you know how much she regrets the rejection of the Vimy show last year."

Linda Ivangolinsta remembered the time in the circle about Naomi Campbell's enthusiasm for squeezing out Tyra Banks' endorsement of Wei Mi, shook his head, and some disdain: "I I feel that she is completely in the wrong direction. Wei Mi Angel is a brand that Williams built. He is also a major shareholder of the company. Without his permission, no one will replace the Wei Mi spokesperson."

"Do you think she doesn't understand, but she doesn't have access to Williams at all, not to mention that it is not necessarily useful to get in touch. And she is too greedy. There are six themes in Wei Mi's big show, but only five. A spokesperson, if it is me, will try to get a chance to start a field, so that you can maintain your position in the circle."

Linda Ivangolinsta envied Cindy Crawford's own savvy mind and said: "You think so clearly, why don't you remind her?"

"Remind her, what can I get, friendship? Ha," Cindy Crawley grinned disdainfully, glanced at the direction of the kitchen, and turned his attention to the documents in his hand.

Linda Ivangolinsta flipped through a few pages of documents and suddenly looked up: "Cindy, I have a good idea, how do you listen."

"Oh, let's talk, if it's good, I won't hesitate to use it," Cindy Crawford looked down and thought that he could invite the guests in the future, and casually replied, she thought, Linda. Ivan Golinsta’s IQ is unlikely to come up with good ideas.

Linda Ivangolinsta did not care about the carelessness of Cindy Crawford, and said with enthusiasm: "Look, our show must have been broadcasted during the same period. I need a model in my show, and your show is definitely Can't leave the designer, why don't we do a crossover, and we must be full of gimmicks."

"Wow, the idea is good," Cindy Crawford praised, but then shook his head: "I don't want to cross with you. In case your program ratings are not good, what should I do?"

Linda Ivangolin Staddy dissatisfied: "Hey, I am talking about serious things, and, why can't you drag me down?"

Cindy Crawford lifted his chin and said, "Because it is impossible."

"You are really self-righteous."

"You are wrong, this is self-confidence."

"Forget it, I won't bicker with you," Linda Ivan Golinsta turned off and thought about it. I couldn't help but ask: "Do you think that if we divide 10%, how much can we get?"

"The production cost of Wei Mi's big show last year was just 20 million US dollars. I don't expect too much. As long as the profit of this program is not less than one tenth of Wei Mi's big show."

Linda Ivangolinsta recalled the profit data of the next big show, saying: "There is only 3 million dollars left in your hands, busy for five months, really little."

Cindy Crawley laughed and didn't mean what Linda Ivan Gorysta explained.

The media is always happy to brag about how much money these top supermodels can earn each year. But in fact, the difference between media data and real data is simply different.

Like herself, some media speculated her income last year to $25 million, but in fact, this account is not so calculated.

Last year, her roughly $25 million in revenue was not fake, but the data is just like the income of a company. The revenue and profits are totally different. Of the $25 million, $10 million is the endorsement fee of Wei Mi, and another $15 million, most of which is due to the influence of the Vimy show. After receiving a few new advertising endorsement contracts, these advertising endorsements only need to attend some activities on time. Most of them are taking a few sets of advertisements to get the money. Therefore, the offer price is far less than that of Wei Mi, but the contract The average age is also about three years. With these contracts in hand, she will not be able to pick up more endorsements in the next few years.

Calculated, Wei Mi's contract is five years, an average of 2 million US dollars per year. The remaining contract years are counted as three years, an average of $5 million a year. Together, she earns $7 million a year.

But this is not over yet. At her income level, she needs to pay 35% of personal income tax. The brokerage company also needs to draw 10% of the share. In the end, it only has 3.85 million US dollars left. This is her true annual income.

and. The renewal of the modelling industry is very fast. Even with her supermodel, with the increase of age and the rise of latecomers, the income will definitely decline. Therefore, Cindy Crawford is far more concerned about the job than Linda Ivangolinsta, who is less sensitive to money. She also clearly remembers that Eric once said that this reality show can continue to produce dozens of seasons as long as the ratings are good.

For dozens of seasons, Cindy Crawford still can't expect it, but as long as she can continue to produce for ten or eight years, she can also succumb to a rich family before the age of forty. It is.

Taking into account the future, Cindy Crow's mind inexplicably re-emerged the tens of acres of luxury manor house in East Hampton's seaside and the few small figures that were secretly seen in the morning. I remembered the $46.5 billion worth of the guy published by Forbes magazine some time ago. Even if she kept her current income level of more than $3 million, she would not be able to reach one percent of his personal assets for 100 years. At the same time, Cindy Crawford couldn't help but create a sense of powerlessness in the stars, whispering in a low voice: "Hey, it's better to have a child."

Sitting opposite her, Linda Ivangolinsta heard the voice and suddenly looked up: "Cindy, what are you talking about?"

Cindy Crawford reveals a puzzled expression: "I said it?"

Linda Ivangolinta nodded and nodded: "You said it, and this is the second time."

Cindy Crawford flashed a brief panic in his eyes, quickly recovered his calmness, bowed his head and continued to flip the file, lazily asked: "What did I say?"

"You know it yourself."

"Oh, I forgot."

Linda Ivangolin Stad threatened: "Be careful, I will tell you your thoughts."

Cindy Crawford doesn't matter: "Go, who knows if that is your thought or my thoughts."

Linda Ivangolin Sta's eyes wide open, her face stunned, and the subconscious raised her voice: "My... thoughts, shameless, how can you bite back!"

Cindy Crawford screamed around and said, "Shut up, do you want these people to see our jokes?"

Linda Ivangolinsta noticed that there were already guests looking at them and lowered their voices. "In short, I just heard it."

"Well, whatever you want," Cindy Crawford shrugged indifferently, and she didn't really worry about it. This thought was like a demon that would be contagious, and she was sure, Linda Ivangolinsta It must have been 'contagious', otherwise she will not be entangled in the little details just now, seems to have to prove anything.

......

Women’s spending power far exceeds that of men, which is almost everyone’s consensus. Therefore, lietime TV has this potential consumption base, because the TV station's advertising customers will definitely prefer the female audience.

The cable TV market in the United States has been brewing for more than a decade, and it is on the verge of an explosion. The stage of dramatic change in this industry is often the best time for monopolistic oligopolistic companies to emerge.

Although there was no single female TV station in the original time and space, no one would doubt that the cable TV market has this potential. As long as we can seize the advanced opportunity of the advanced field, it is not impossible to create a female TV station that is no less than espn.

The most fundamental factor in the success of a TV station is the excellent TV program. Although the "American Supermodel Contest" and "Tianqiao Pride" have been produced, it is impossible for TV stations to rely on reality TV to support viewership. TV dramas are indispensable. At this point, Eric has a very big advantage. When he considered two reality TV shows, he already thought of a TV series that is very suitable for lietime TV.

However, lietime TV's annual budget is only 100 million US dollars per year. Although Eric's expectations for lietime TV are very high, it is impossible to promote the seedlings. The initial investment is too much to cause losses, which not only hurts morale, but also may affect the next development plan. .

In the $100 million budget, the two reality shows have already occupied 40 million. In addition, the TV station not only has to order a batch of TV programs to fill other playing time, but also needs to reserve enough marketing funds. Therefore, the remaining 60 million US dollars will be It is impossible to squeeze out the budget for making a TV series.

Of course, as long as the ratings of the "American Supermodel Contest" and "Tianqiao Pride" in the fall file reach Eric's expectations, the budget of the lietime TV station will definitely increase significantly.

After Easter, Eric temporarily reduced the focus on the Firefly Group, and devoted most of his energy to the negotiations of the Firefly Investment.

On the other hand, the cooperation between Firefly and Hasbro about toys has been very smooth. Both sides have a very strong willingness to cooperate. At the end of April, they have come up with a detailed plan. Kasenberg represents Firefly Group and Hasbro. After signing the cooperation agreement, I did not rush to leave New York. Instead, I relied on Lietime TV's next stage development plan to lobby for several major cable operators, hoping to win more subscribers for lietime TV before the fall.
