Chapter 729

Domay point manor.

In front of the glass curtain wall near the sea of the shell villa, looking at the bustling hall in the middle, every child has a chance to get a gift tonight. Simon and Amy Pascal, sitting on a sofa against the wall, are talking about the company.

"the Japanese stock market has been declining for the past week. So, you may not have the chance to attend the opening ceremony of Osaka Universal Studios next Easter?"

Simon, holding a glass of red wine, leaned leisurely on a single sofa and said with a smile, "yes, I can't go any more. This decline cycle of the Japanese stock market may last for a long time. Even if it gets better, I'll run there again. The Japanese are really impatient."

, "ha ha," Amy laughed. "There is another thing, you know, about the name, do we still need to continue to use the name of Universal Studios, or is it now a good chance to rename the" Danielle cinemas "?

"I've thought about it many times, but I still don't think it's necessary. Danilisi Entertainment Group will become more and more huge in the future. We don't need to prefix all subsidiaries with "danilisi". This will lead to some disadvantages of homogenization. Now that we need to build a global theme park system, the Universal Studios is actually good, isn't it?

Amy thought and nodded, and said, "yes, peck told me on Friday that Turkey has recently contacted him, saying that if we put the Universal Studios project in Istanbul, there will be a big discount."

Amy said Peck was Bruce peck, the president of theme park business.

in July, in order to push Disney to accept the offer of vividi group in France, danirey entertainment announced the plan to build the Universal Studios in Europe. One disaster after another very influential

is the Disneyland in Paris, which has become a major burden on Disney. If the construction of the European Universal Studios is going to be diverted, the tourist source of Paris Disneyland will inevitably diverge. This theme park, which is now in the middle of the hardship, will add to the damage to the whole The Walt Disney Company.

At the beginning, the announcement of this news directly led to Disney chairman and CEO Michael Eisner's heart attack.

Without Eisner, a diehard who firmly opposes the sale of Disney, Vivendi group's negotiation on the acquisition of Disney is progressing smoothly, and is now waiting for the final approval of the Federal Department of justice.

many people are worried that Universal Studios will follow the steps of Disney in Paris. Simon has no intention of making a false move.

in recent months, the location of Universal Studios in Europe has been in low key.

Simon just didn't expect that Turkey would come to the party.

It's not surprising.

Although Disneyland in Paris has become a burden to Disneyland, the theme park has eventually brought tens of millions of tourists to France every year. A huge business circle has formed near Disneyland in Bali, and employment and real estate have been greatly boosted.

On the whole, the advantages far outweigh the disadvantages.

so many countries have been making efforts to win the project in the hope of winning the construction of Universal Studios in Europe. To avoid repeating the mistakes of Disneyland in Paris on climate factors,

Universal Studios will choose Mediterranean countries with four seasons of spring.

After excluding France, there are only Italy, Spain and Greece. To be exact, they are around Rome, Barcelona and Athens. Among them, Rome and Barcelona are the top priority, and Athens can only be regarded as a substitute. Now it depends on who can give more preferential terms to Italy and Spain and the team of danielis entertainment theme park Comprehensive evaluation results.

In order to avoid the three companies waiting to sell, this consideration will not be made public.

In terms of media opinion, any country in Europe has the opportunity to obtain the project, even the high latitude Britain and the three northern European countries.

With this in mind, Simon said: "turkey is definitely impossible. Although our theme park belongs to PG level, there are too many cultural differences. However, you can let Bruce have more contact with each other, and it's OK to take time to have a survey. Remember to let the wind out of the media. "

Amy knew what Simon meant by this arrangement, and nodded with a smile. Then she talked about the box office of the first week of "the haunted morgue" and the follow-up development of "the universe of evocation.".

From October 28 to November 3, in the first week of the Halloween season, the "haunted mortuary" won the title without any suspense. After seven days of painting, the box office of "haunted mortuary" was up to 45.71 million US dollars, with the average of 19000 US dollars. Both of the two key figures surpassed the summer version of "evocation".

In the same period, the box office of four major new films, Frankenstein, which ranked second in the weekly box office list, was only $14.2 million in the first week, less than a third of that of "the morgue haunted".

The other two new films are a bit of a disaster.

Warner Bros.'s $30 million silent trap 'grossed only $2.04 million in the first week, barely ranking fifth in the weekly box office list. Disney's $20 million production cost of "the ultimate warrior" made only $1.51 million at the box office seven days after it was painted, falling directly to the ninth place on the list.According to comprehensive statistics, the total box office in North America in the first week of Halloween was 73.16 million US dollars, and "the morgue haunted event" accounted for 62% of the total.

Denise entertainment is still the only one.

Although judging from the box office trend of the second weekend in recent days, the next week's decline of "the morgue haunted event" may reach about 50%, which is more than the 43% decline of "evocation" in the same period, this film has no regrets for such an excellent start. The brand of "evocative movie universe" is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people after being honed by these two films.

As for the follow-up, horror movies are different from blockbusters, with low budget and short cycle. If Simon wants to, it's OK to launch two or three series a year. However, Simon certainly knows that he can't do everything he can to catch the fish. If he is too eager for the development progress, he will only make the audience lose interest in this series.

Simon's plan is to release at most one related work every year in the future, which is more cautious than the DC movie universe series, and occasionally it will stop completely for a year, which is called "Fallow". What's more, sequels of single films should be separated by at least one year. All this is to maximize the vitality of the "evocation movie universe.".

After the birthday party of two little guys, a new week comes.

November 7.

Monday.

The day before polling day for the 1994 mid-term elections.

In three days, Lin Su and Chen Qing were basically familiar with the new environment around them, and the time difference was reversed. I thought I would stay in Los Angeles for a long time, but I didn't expect to be informed on Sunday afternoon that they would fly to New York with Simon westrow on Monday.

I packed up in advance and arrived at Los Angeles International Airport on time at nine o'clock.

The memorable Boeing 767 has already stopped on the runway. Seeing a girl waiting at the door of the cabin, Chen Qing knows that Simon westero has arrived ahead of time, which makes all six women in the party embarrassed. Fortunately, no one cares about this.

Chen Qing is also acutely aware that the four staff members that westero has given her and Lin supei are even more excited today than the two of them.

Probably because I was able to meet Simon westero.

These days, I get along very well with the four women, and some even plan to take them as the first level of their development in the United States. However, some things still let Chen Qing instinctively some small fear, very much hope that a girl to four women arranged to the back cabin with those staff.

Because these four are probably the service personnel specially trained by the Westeros family. They are not bad in shape or appearance.

Instead of doing so, Alison brought the six into the living room in the middle of the plane. In order to avoid self defeating, Chen Qing did not take the initiative to put forward.

All of you, take off.

When the Boeing 767 enters the clouds, everyone unfastens their seat belts and starts to move freely.

I dare not walk around.

Just waiting for the stewardess to come, a tall and straight young man walked directly into the living room, followed by a girl.

The six girls got up quickly.

Simon nodded to Lin Su and Chen Qing, then looked at the two bodyguards with a smile: "Kate, Pamela, how are you doing?"

Katherine Elgar and Pamela wenser were the first female bodyguards trained at the MCSs base in Oklahoma.

Simon not only saw the details of the girls, but also met them several times.

They didn't expect Simon to remember their name. They said hello to them first, a little flattered. Catherine Elgar said, "it's very good, Mr. westrow, but I'm sorry I can't work with you."

Simon trained these female bodyguards to serve the women around him. At this time, he just said, "it doesn't make any difference. Although they work for Chen Helin, you are still employees of the Westeros."

That's true.

Lin Su and Chen Qing can't afford the salaries of the four girls, who are all paid by the Westeros.

Don't forget to say hello to Lily favel and Christina Latham, who met for the first time. When they found that the clothes on the six girls were a little thin, Simon asked, "it might be a little cold over there in New York. Have you prepared your clothes?"

All six women nodded.

Los Angeles is like spring all the year round. Women who love beauty are naturally Hardy. It's nothing to wear thin clothes on the west coast.

However, it is already winter on the east coast now, and the daily temperature is below 10 degrees. I can't stand it if I continue to dress like the west coast. Lin Su and Chen Qing, who live in the south of China, didn't think about it yesterday. Lily favel, who grew up on the east coast, put it forward. After receiving the notice yesterday afternoon, six women went out to buy new clothes together.

Seeing that the girls nodded, Simon changed the subject and continued to chat with them. He quickly got up and said to Chen Qing, "Chen, come with me."

Chen Qing confirms that westero only yells for herself, conceals her joy, and stands up to follow the man out of the middle cabin living room.Looking at Chen Qing's figure leaving, Lin Su, who had just almost stood up with her, had an indifferent look on her face, but she was inexplicably lost in her heart.

There was even a little bitterness that she would never admit.

Somebody, is that on purpose?

Then, after a four hour trip, Chen Qing didn't come back until the plane was close to New York. Girl a appeared and took some of Chen Qing's clothes. Seeing this, the other girls could guess what happened even if they were stupid. When I got off the plane, I saw some rudeness on Chen Qing's face. When I walked, it was obviously unnatural, so it was even more obvious.

Her boss is a playboy, and Catherine and her daughters are clear about it, but they don't have any special feelings.

But Lin Su was in a mixed mood.

Hateful man.

It's ridiculous.

See Chen Qing off the plane all the way affectionately holding the man's arm, inexplicably more angry.

Arriving in New York, it was more than four o'clock in the afternoon on the east coast.

When they arrived in Manhattan, they separated. Lin Su and Chen Qing's destination is a townhouse on 95th Street on the upper west side. The reason why they are here is because they are very close to Columbia University. In the next two years, Chen Qing will take an MBA degree at Columbia University after working.

A girl personally sent six girls over and arranged for them. When she left, she didn't forget to remind her that there was a reception in the evening, and Lin Su and Chen Qing had to attend.

Seeing Alison Norris off, it's getting dark in Manhattan.

All the lights in the four story townhouse, which is only one block away from the Central Park, are on. Chen Qing walks up and down the villa again against her discomfort. Finally, she comes to the downstairs living room and sits on the sofa contentedly. Looking at Lin Su, who looks cold beside her, she suddenly says in Chinese, "I didn't expect that my first time was on the plane."

Lin Su's face hardly changed. He looked very disdainful and looked at a copy of the economist, which the two women bought together in Los Angeles in recent days.

Seeing that Lin Su ignored herself, Chen Qing had a smile on her face and suddenly asked, "Lin Su, do you have a first time?"

Lin Su turned slightly and pretended not to hear.

"I don't think so."

"You didn't!"

"Oh, there seems to be something else," Chen Qing said with a smile. "I'll tell Simon. He should be very happy."

If Lin Su dropped the economist on the tea table, he would run away.

Chen Qing called to her and said, "Simon said that you will be my assistant in the future. This is a fair name."

Lin Su's eyes were wide open.

I just reluctantly agreed to cooperate with her.

How suddenly

Moreover, only half a month ago, she was the government Commissioner in charge of the reception of Simon westero. Chen Qing was just a little translator who was not even a deputy.

This is a reversal.

It's hard.

Think about it and quickly understand.

Men.

As long as they are satisfied, they are willing to promise anything.

Moreover, from the beginning, Lin Su knew that Chen Qing was not a fuel-efficient lamp.

There are more emotions.

But I know that I have no room to refuse.

Chen Qing looked at Lin Su's changing expression with pride, and quickly said, "by the way, there's also the MBA in Columbia University. Do you want to go with me?"

"Yes!"

"Then I'll talk to Simon and count you in."

Lin Su wants to go back. Noticing the banter expression on Chen Qing's face, he tries to hold back.

A strong desire to win was suddenly born in my heart.

Sooner or later, one day.

Sooner or later, I will surpass you!
