"As for the establishment of the board of directors of China Telecom, I just mentioned last night that you should not hold any hope in the short term. You should just look on the sidelines and not add to the cake. Moreover, even if a board of directors is set up, the number of places we can fight for will not fall on you two. I still hope you will stand behind the scenes. "

"Don't get involved in these things, just look at China," Simon nodded slightly, then turned to Chen Qing. "Don't forget to keep learning, or you'll hit the ceiling soon."

Chen Qing immediately Duqi mouth: "boss, I wronged ah, I can be more capable than a su."

After breakfast, Simon is ready to set off for the west coast.

He put on the windbreaker that the two girls had given him at the entrance and combed it to make sure there was nothing missing. Finally, he hugged Chen Qing, turned to Lin Su and hugged the woman's waist. He thought of one thing and said with a smile, "did the adult tell you something in an hour?"

Lin Su was held in his arms by the man and raised his head slightly: "hmm?"

"Don't kiss a boy. You'll get pregnant." Simon said, seeing a quick layer of rouge spread on the woman's face, he lowered his head with a smile: "come on, let's increase the success rate."

Back in Los Angeles, it was the morning of December 14.

Saturday.

The main purpose is to deal with the accumulated affairs on the west coast before Christmas. Jennie and Simon are still in Greenwich, looking forward to the snow for Christmas. Simon will return to the east coast before Christmas.

It's the second day of the Christmas season.

Simon is most concerned about the recent box office data of Christmas movies.

Just in the past box office week from December 6 to December 12, "wonder woman 2" had a big box office drop, with a drop of 41% in the third week, and the box office revenue was 59.71 million US dollars. However, the film was only released in three weeks, and the cumulative box office quickly reached a high of 314.3 million US dollars, easily surpassing the previous annual box office champion "007 ghost party" of 307 million US dollars, and promoted to the first place in the annual list.

"Wonder woman 2" under the cover of the scenery, Thanksgiving file released at the same time all other films have been swept out of the house, dark.

In addition to "wonder woman 2", there are "mind catcher" which opened last week and the 54th Golden Globe nomination announced on December 11.

With its attractive creative lineup, mind catcher, which costs only US $10 million, just opened with 106 screens last week, has attracted a large number of media attention. This low-cost literary and artistic drama has also lived up to the expectations of the public. After its release, it has won almost one-sided praise. The comprehensive media rating has reached the classic level of 9.4. The famous film critic Roger Abbott has even raised the film to the level of "another Rain Man.".

All round praise, coupled with the attractive main creative lineups such as Gus Van Sant, Robert De Niro, Ben Affleck and Kate Beckinsale, attracted a large number of curious audiences to watch the film.

At the same time, the nominations for the Golden Globe Award on December 11 have once again added popularity to the film. Relying on its excellent quality, "mind catcher" has won a total of five nominations for best film, best actor, best supporting actor, best supporting actress and best screenwriter in this year's Golden Globe award.

Because of its high reputation and popularity, the average box office in the first week of the film's screening reached 51300 U.S. dollars. Seven days after the screening, the total box office reached 5.43 million U.S. dollars.

This popularity and word-of-mouth, if Denise entertainment want to pursue the next Oscar victory, it is not difficult.

Simon is not going to do that, though.

Last year's "Batman vs Superman: Dawn of justice", Simon has used the film's high box office and popularity, through strong public relations to put the film on the best picture throne.

According to Simon's strategy, we have to take a step back this year.

Otherwise, next year's "Titanic" is bound to change. In any case, the Organizing Committee of the Oscars will not allow danielis entertainment to reach the top for three consecutive years, even if the quality of the relevant films is beyond doubt. But if the Oscars become danielis Entertainment's private land, it will not be good for anyone.

Even so, this time it's still a good time to stay in the field.

Because of another popular nomination released on December 11, MGM's British patient is still Simon's deliberate arrangement.

The film was proposed by Saul zaenz, an old Hollywood independent producer who once held the copyright of the Lord of the rings series. Because the production cost is obviously too high compared with the subject matter, zaenz made many twists and turns in order to make the film. In the original time and space, he even gave up the copyright of the Lord of the rings series to the Weinstein brothers for the project approval of the film.

This time, Simon has been quietly following the project for a long time, and guided MGM to take over the film at the right time last year.

The final cost of British patient is 27 million US dollars, which is really high for a literary film adapted from a novel. Moreover, to be frank, unlike the old and young Xianyi of "the catcher of the soul", the content of British patient is much more gloomy and obscure, but it is just to the taste of critics.As a result, compared with the five nominations of mind catcher, the British patient has won a total of seven nominations for best picture, best director, best actor, best heroine, best supporting actress, best screenwriter and best movie soundtrack. It can be said that this year's Golden Globe awards are the most popular, and it will obviously become the focus of next year's awards season.

The 1997 award season, which was announced by the announcement of the Golden Globes nomination, is more eye-catching than "the catcher of the soul" and "the British patient", as well as Cohen brothers' new film "ice blood storm" and Madonna's "Mrs. Baron". Spielberg's slave themed film "lock breaking Fury" is entirely based on his qualifications Join in the fun.

For Hollywood, where business is the king, awards and honors are only embellishments after all. Therefore, everyone's eyes will soon turn to the Christmas schedule which starts on December 13.

Compared with the golden box office week dominated by "wonder woman 2" on November 22, the Christmas season on December 13, the Black Friday, is much more crowded. In addition to the heaviest "game of the brave", there are Disney's "angel bodyguard", Arnold Schwarzenegger's another comedy "jingle all the way", the large-scale "mind catcher" and this week's opening "British patients" and other films were shown together.

As a special effects blockbuster cooperated by danilisi entertainment and Time Warner Group, Simon originally adopted the Johnson version of the plot in his memory in 2017. With the participation of veteran male star Sylvester Stallone and super model Trish Goff, the film finally spent $82 million on the production budget, which was slightly overspended.

Fortunately, the effect of the film is satisfactory.

Similarly, after the premiere on December 11, the film's word-of-mouth was lifted the next day, with a comprehensive media score of 7.8, which was quite good.

The first is the special effects of the film.

With the special effects of danielis, plus some grand scenes that Simon deliberately added to the original, the special effects scene of the film is very shocking.

As for the actor, Sylvester Stallone has won the unanimous approval of film critics for his middle-aged body and juvenile mentality. Even though it is well known that qusi Gough, who is highly praised by a young tycoon, not only has her stunning and sexy style aroused strong repercussions from the audience, but her acting skills also exceeded expectations.

If the short board, it is inevitable that the plot.

Hollywood Reporter commented on the film as "a young popcorn movie with no brain at all", which is the main reason why the comprehensive score of the film failed to reach more than 8 points.

However, all parties have not been critical of this.

Because "the game of the brave" is a light and funny popcorn blockbuster full of visual shock, Simon never thought to add any little connotation to it.

In the first week of release, "game of the brave" opened with 3539 screens, second only to "wonder woman 2" at the end of the year.

Compared with 101 spotted dogs, which costs 75 million US dollars in Thanksgiving, angel bodyguard, which costs 40 million US dollars in Disney's Christmas, tells the story of Henry, a black man in a small town, and Juliet, his wife, who is the lead singer of the church choir, who is increasingly indifferent to each other and gets an unexpected response after telling God, leading to the angel's coming down to earth.

Directed by penny Marshall, starring Denzel Washington and Whitney Houston, the film is an all black cast.

What's more, it's obvious that the movie has followed the lead of the movie bodyguard starring Kevin Costner and Whitney Houston to some extent. After the large-scale opening of 1783 screens in the first week, the film's comprehensive media score is only 6.0, which is barely satisfactory.

Arnold Schwarzenegger's "jingle all the way" continues the comedic style of the action star from "dragon brother and Mouse Brother" and "kindergarten special police", which can be regarded as a small work during the preparation of "Terminator 3".

It's just a small job this time.

Due to the failure of several consecutive films and Hollywood's bad mouthing of traditional action stars, compared with the previous $60 million box office flop "little guy", the production cost of this "jingle all the way" is only $30 million, which is different from the previous $15 million high salary. Arnold signed a $8 million base salary plus profit sharing model with the producer fox That's almost half the pay cut.

Moreover, Arnold still failed to reverse his bad luck after he started painting on the scale of 2401 screens. The comprehensive media score of the film was only 3.8 points. In the face of the squeeze of many strong films, the box office prospects of Arnold's reputation can be imagined.

After the three major new films, there was "the catcher of the soul", which started painting on a large scale in a week, with 1746 screens. And "British patient" 10 small-scale screen point.
