Hot girls are very simple. Denise entertainment has been exploring young pop singers all these years. It's easy to copy them. Even if they fail, it doesn't matter.
It's a pity that the "Harry Potter" series, such a super big IP, will be lost.
In the front study of the Boeing 767.
Simon is thinking about this with one mind and two uses. Girl a knocks on the door and presents a newly sorted document: "boss, this is from Chris Lee."
Simon met Chris Lee, President of Sony's Columbia Pictures, at the Jonathan's reception last Saturday. After a few words, he sent a message to Chris Lee the next day, asking him to compile a list of all the film projects Sony Pictures is incubating.
It's actually a kind of trial.
Sony has been in Hollywood for so many years. If it was in the past, foreign investment in Hollywood would have been in line with Simon's plan. Times are changing. Since Denise entertainment does not intend to retain its strength to seek coexistence, it is also the time to sweep the Japanese out of Hollywood.
Once upon a time, Sony successfully survived the difficult period around 2000 and established itself in Hollywood for a long time by virtue of the big hit series such as man in black and spider man. Now, if we want to get the Japanese out, Simon needs to control Sony as much as possible, and there will be no more variables like "man in black".
Chris Lee is one of Simon's pieces.
Now that Chris Lee has passed on the information, it's clear that the Hollywood executive not only understands Simon's intention, but also decisively delivers the nomination.
Simon took the document from girl a and opened it. He found that the information given by Chris Lee was more detailed than he asked for, including Sony's film list this year, and the internal evaluation tendency of various incubation projects.
The two major brands, Columbia and Samsung, controlled by Sony, have suffered losses for many years in a row. This year, it is estimated that only 11 films will be produced, including 7 in Colombia and 4 in Samsung.
In addition to "walking with the devil" which failed at the box office in the Easter season, the key films of 1997, the disaster of the boa constrictor and absolute power which are scheduled for the summer season, and the perfect and the Star River team which are scheduled for the end of the year, the others are small films with a budget of less than $30 million.
This is quite different from Sony's 1997 movie list in Simon's memory.
Once upon a time, in history, 1997 was a year when Sony made a big comeback. In the top ten of the annual box office list, Sony occupied four films, namely "man in black", "Air Force One", "perfection" and "my best friend's wedding ceremony".
It was because of the big sales of four movies in a year that Sony survived the most difficult period, and it was after the millennium that it completely established itself by relying on the Spider Man series.
This time, things have obviously changed too much.
First of all, under the strong impact of daenerys entertainment, and Sony's successive losses, this Japanese electronics giant, like several other Hollywood studios, has to take the initiative to reduce film production. The 11 films of its two brands are not too few. Fox has less than 10 films this year. However, compared with a series of blockbusters, such as man in black, air force one, walking with the devil, Star River team and the fifth element, which were successful or failed in 1997, this time, there are only four blockbusters with a budget of 50 million US dollars, including walking with the devil, absolute power, perfection and Star River team.
More careful analysis, distribution in the summer and the end of the main film is also very interesting.
Absolute power is a crime drama directed and performed by Clint Eastwood again. The old cowboy is no longer hanging on the tree of Warner since Steve Roth died in that year. In addition, the box office has always been very secure. It is very popular with major studios. This time, it was courted by Sony and spent $50 million to shoot this new film.
"The python disaster", a typical Hollywood monster adventure film, once starred in Jennifer Lopez, is a typical bad movie, but the box office is still good. Coupled with the hot sale of the video market, a series of sequels have been produced, some of which are directly put into the video and DVD market as the follow-up of "the alien".
This time, because Jennifer Lopez was busy judging American Idol, the heroine changed to Demi Moore.
Obviously it's Simon, the big butterfly.
Without the rise of Denise entertainment, Bruce Willis and Demi Moore would have been very nurturing in the 1990s.
Even if there is no representative work after ghost, Demi Moore still takes advantage of the huge amount of hot money pouring into Hollywood in the 1990s to make big budget films such as "the devil's maid" and "the devil's soldier". No matter how miserable these projects have been to investors, Demi Moore's salaries of more than ten million dollars in a row are full.
Of course, because of the bad character, Demi Moore, who played the villain in 2003's "Thunderbolt 2", only got $2 million.Now, with the strength of danielis entertainment, other big studios are not easy to live, hot money is not stupid, the number of Hollywood inflow has been greatly reduced, and Simon has also actively absorbed part of it. The most direct result is that the chance for stars to eat hot money dividends has also been greatly reduced. In addition, the era of 20 million film rewards for Hollywood's first-line celebrities has not come, and the current film reward ceiling has been reduced Simon successfully stuck in the upper limit of 15 million,
the butterfly influence in a smaller scope is that Bruce Willis and Demi Moore are far from having a better life.
Bruce Willis, an action star who grew up on "tiger's gall dragon", has fallen back to the second tier without "vulgar novel" to make him popular again in the late 1990s.
As for Demi Moore, we still need to take over the film that is hard to make a difference. Compared with Jennifer Lopez, who has just crossed the circle, although Demi Moore's coffee seat is higher, the budget of the film is still only $45 million, less than the $50 million blockbuster threshold.
As for the box office this time, according to Chris Lee's internal information, the effect of the disaster of the python is not good, and the prospect is not very optimistic.
And then there's the year-end version of perfection.
This is a romantic comedy by James Brooks, a well-known Hollywood filmmaker who has produced such blockbuster films as "deep love between mother and daughter" and "flying over the future", in collaboration with Jack Nicholson, the film's best actor. It was also a box office award winner on the time line, which not only made Jack Nicholson the Oscar winner again, but also ranked sixth in the annual box office list.
The final "Star River team", needless to say, is another box office fiasco relative to the cost of breaking 100 million yuan.
On the whole, "walking with the devil" has lost. The following four major films are "absolute power", "the disaster of the python", "perfection" and "Star River team". Even if "perfection" can be as popular as in the original time and space, it is difficult to reverse the overall decline of Sony Pictures.
As long as there is no big accident, Sony Pictures will still end up at a loss in 1997.
After watching Sony's 1997 movie list, Simon wrote down "my best friend's wedding" on the draft paper at hand, and then obliterated it.
This film, which used to be one of the top ten box office films of the year, was obviously tailor-made for Julia Roberts at that time, so it's only natural that it was lost by the butterfly. If you think about it, you're sure to make it. It's a billion dollar movie. Why not?
Immediately, Simon did not forget "Air Force One" and added another.
It's also one of the top ten movies of the year.
Even if the budget is a little high and the cost performance is relatively low, it is a good choice for MGM or other studios in the future.
After finishing all these, we can find that air force one is still on Sony's incubation list. However, because of Harrison Ford's bad cooperation experience with the devil, Sony's senior management delayed the development of this project. With the box office fiasco of "walking with the devil", if there is no accident, then at least Sony will not develop the film.
When Simon saw this, he didn't need to cover it up any more, so he made a remark on the data.
Now that Chris Lee has given his nomination, Simon will of course reciprocate. This project can be quietly suppressed by the other party. After the Japanese go away, they can take it out and make it by themselves. It will also become a qualification.
And then Simon quickly saw another project, "Godzilla.".
Sony is in contact with Japan's Dongbao copyright, has not yet reached an agreement.
Simon immediately listed it as a sniper.
In 1998, Roland Emmerich's version of Godzilla was badly criticized because the king of monsters was made into a Tyrannosaurus Rex. However, due to the huge reputation of this world-class IP and its shocking special effects, the box office of nearly $400 million in the world was not a failure. Sony basically recovered the cost and made a profit.
This time, Roland Emmerich is still under danielis entertainment. It's probably not easy for Sony to negotiate the copyright and do worse than ever Emmerich.
With Godzilla's global reputation, the box office is quite secure. If you don't pay attention, it may explode.
Simon doesn't want to see Sony Pictures hit any more.
After a little thought, Simon turned to the computer on his desk and sent an e-mail to Amy Pascal directly, asking her to try to contact the Japanese to cut the beard.
At the end of the paper, Simon managed to find a big hole.
Kevin Costner is lobbying around Hollywood for a project called 2013 the ultimate messengers. This is a science fiction story adapted from a novel. After the outbreak of the nuclear war, an end of life tramp accidentally acquired a set of postman equipment, and then began to pretend that the postman wandered among various gathering places, and unexpectedly became the spiritual leader among the end of life residents.
Kevin Costner, this is obviously a pair of unwilling "future water world" failure to tie with the momentum of the eschatological film.However, Simon also remembers it very well because it was once a heavy bomb that failed to be tragic.
Once upon a time, the 2013 ultimate miracle was invested by Warner, released at the end of this year, and then disappeared. Now, because everyone's life is not so good, Costner hasn't got any investment until now, and Sony is just one of the negotiation objects. Moreover, according to the information given by Chris Lee, Sony is obviously not very popular.
Now the question is how to make Sony catch a cold.
In fact, the method is also simple. As long as danielis shows her interest in entertainment, just like the script "bad things" which was robbed some time ago, this move has been tried repeatedly in Hollywood.
Of course, we should also avoid self defeating.
Simon thought it over carefully, but he didn't choose to do the same thing again. Instead, he planned to let Chris Lee run it by himself. Even if Sony's top management was very hard on Sony Pictures' team card, there would be no room for operation.
What about the details?
Simon is confident in the ability of Hollywood natives to fool investors.
This is another test.
After sorting out these, Simon quickly typed out a note on the computer, transferred it to girl a's mailbox, and asked her to send someone to print it out and send it to Chris Lee.
It also prompts you not to use e-mail.
After all, this kind of thing is not suitable to leave evidence after all.
Simon continued to be busy until the Boeing 767 landed at Heathrow Airport in London. The local time was more than 9:00 p.m. on April 10.
It was late at night when I got to the mansion on Kensington Garden Street in downtown London.
Simon had just entered the door, but a small figure came first, bent down and opened her arms to catch him. The five-year-old girl, like a koala, put her hands and feet on Simon and yelled "Dad". Then she put her head on Simon's shoulder and there was no movement in the twinkling of an eye.
Obviously I'm asleep.
It's really too late for children.
Yulia shurchigina, together with Ivana antoinenko and Natalia banhikova, came forward. Seeing her daughter Nina being held in the arms of a man, she was quite considerate and spoiled. Shurchigina could not help feeling some warmth in her heart, but reached out and said, "Sir, I'll come."
Simon shook his head. "No, where's the bedroom? I'll take the kid up."
So Simon couldn't help thinking of six women who were pregnant at the same time.
It's all confirmed. It's all boys.
Six kids.
Simon is under a lot of pressure. He doesn't have a cotton padded jacket.
In my arms, although I don't see many people on weekdays, it also gives Simon the feeling of a small cotton padded jacket.
Schulthina listened to Simon's words and quickly led the way.
Ivana antoinenko subconsciously wants to keep up with him, but she still has some regrets. She didn't let her daughter Vera wait with her. If she can be so spoiled by men, her status around him will be much higher. Instead of following, Natalia banchikova welcomed girl a and Carmen case, helping arrange the luggage and accommodation for Simon's entourage.
When he came to a bedroom upstairs, Simon was just about to put the sleeping girl on the bed. Unexpectedly, the girl immediately woke up and entangled Simon again.
Simon had to hold it for a while. When the little girl fell asleep again, tried again and woke up again.
Shuershijinna had to step forward and said in a soft voice, "baby, dad will have a rest, and you can see it tomorrow. Don't pester people."
Little guy still hands and feet and ground around Simon, smell words: "that, I and Dad, and mom, sleep together."
Shuershiggina blushed and immediately shook her head: "no way."
Girl confused: "why ah?"
“……”
Simon saw shuershiggina's voice and said with a smile, "because Nina is a big girl, of course she can't sleep with her parents."
Obviously, the little girl didn't understand the cause and effect logic. She blinked her pretty eyes, and said quickly, "Nina is not big, Nina is only five years old."
"Five years old is already a big girl," Simon said patiently. "Well behaved, if you don't listen, Dad won't come to see you in the future."
The girl hugged Simon's little arm and immediately tightened it. Her face showed an expression of grievance. She looked at her mother and saw that Shure higgina also nodded. Then she turned to Simon again: "well, dad is going to read Nina stories, bedtime stories."
"Yes, but Nina has to lie in bed by herself first."
"Well."
After so much persuasion, the girl finally opened Simon and shrunk to her little bed. She tried to keep her eyes open and didn't want to sleep. It's a pity that children are not good at staying up all night. Simon took a children's book at the head of the bed, but after reading less than two pages, the little man fell asleep.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!

However, compared with a series of blockbusters, such as man in black, air force one, walking with the devil, Star River team and the fifth element, which were successful or failed in 1997, this time, there are only four blockbusters with a budget of 50 million US dollars, including walking with the devil, absolute power, perfection and Star River team. More careful analysis, distribution in the summer and the end of the main film is also very interesting. Absolute power is a crime drama directed and performed by Clint Eastwood again. The old cowboy is no longer hanging on the tree of Warner since Steve Roth died in that year. In addition, the box office has always been very secure. It is very popular with major studios. This time, it was courted by Sony and spent $50 million to shoot this new film. "The python disaster", a typical Hollywood monster adventure film, once starred in Jennifer Lopez, is a typical bad movie, but the box office is still good. Coupled with the hot sale of the video market, a series of sequels have been produced, some of which are directly put into the video and DVD market as the follow-up of "the alien". This time, because Jennifer Lopez was busy judging American Idol, the heroine changed to Demi Moore. Obviously it's Simon, the big butterfly. Without the rise of Denise entertainment, Bruce Willis and Demi Moore would have been very nurturing in the 1990s. Even if there is no representative work after ghost, Demi Moore still takes advantage of the huge amount of hot money pouring into Hollywood in the 1990s to make big budget films such as "the devil's maid" and "the devil's soldier". No matter how miserable these projects have been to investors, Demi Moore's salaries of more than ten million dollars in a row are full. Of course, because of the bad character, Demi Moore, who played the villain in 2003's "Thunderbolt 2", only got $2 million.Now, with the strength of danielis entertainment, other big studios are not easy to live, hot money is not stupid, the number of Hollywood inflow has been greatly reduced, and Simon has also actively absorbed part of it. The most direct result is that the chance for stars to eat hot money dividends has also been greatly reduced. In addition, the era of 20 million film rewards for Hollywood's first-line celebrities has not come, and the current film reward ceiling has been reduced Simon successfully stuck in the upper limit of 15 million, the butterfly influence in a smaller scope is that Bruce Willis and Demi Moore are far from having a better life. Bruce Willis, an action star who grew up on "tiger's gall dragon", has fallen back to the second tier without "vulgar novel" to make him popular again in the late 1990s. As for Demi Moore, we still need to take over the film that is hard to make a difference. Compared with Jennifer Lopez, who has just crossed the circle, although Demi Moore's coffee seat is higher, the budget of the film is still only $45 million, less than the $50 million blockbuster threshold. As for the box office this time, according to Chris Lee's internal information, the effect of the disaster of the python is not good, and the prospect is not very optimistic. And then there's the year-end version of perfection. This is a romantic comedy by James Brooks, a well-known Hollywood filmmaker who has produced such blockbuster films as "deep love between mother and daughter" and "flying over the future", in collaboration with Jack Nicholson, the film's best actor. It was also a box office award winner on the time line, which not only made Jack Nicholson the Oscar winner again, but also ranked sixth in the annual box office list. The final "Star River team", needless to say, is another box office fiasco relative to the cost of breaking 100 million yuan. On the whole, "walking with the devil" has lost. The following four major films are "absolute power", "the disaster of the python", "perfection" and "Star River team". Even if "perfection" can be as popular as in the original time and space, it is difficult to reverse the overall decline of Sony Pictures. As long as there is no big accident, Sony Pictures will still end up at a loss in 1997. After watching Sony's 1997 movie list, Simon wrote down "my best friend's wedding" on the draft paper at hand, and then obliterated it. This film, which used to be one of the top ten box office films of the year, was obviously tailor-made for Julia Roberts at that time, so it's only natural that it was lost by the butterfly. If you think about it, you're sure to make it. It's a billion dollar movie. Why not? Immediately, Simon did not forget "Air Force One" and added another. It's also one of the top ten movies of the year. Even if the budget is a little high and the cost performance is relatively low, it is a good choice for MGM or other studios in the future. After finishing all these, we can find that air force one is still on Sony's incubation list. However, because of Harrison Ford's bad cooperation experience with the devil, Sony's senior management delayed the development of this project. With the box office fiasco of "walking with the devil", if there is no accident, then at least Sony will not develop the film. When Simon saw this, he didn't need to cover it up any more, so he made a remark on the data. Now that Chris Lee has given his nomination, Simon will of course reciprocate. This project can be quietly suppressed by the other party. After the Japanese go away, they can take it out and make it by themselves. It will also become a qualification. And then Simon quickly saw another project, "Godzilla.". Sony is in contact with Japan's Dongbao copyright, has not yet reached an agreement. Simon immediately listed it as a sniper. In 1998, Roland Emmerich's version of Godzilla was badly criticized because the king of monsters was made into a Tyrannosaurus Rex. However, due to the huge reputation of this world-class IP and its shocking special effects, the box office of nearly $400 million in the world was not a failure. Sony basically recovered the cost and made a profit. This time, Roland Emmerich is still under danielis entertainment. It's probably not easy for Sony to negotiate the copyright and do worse than ever Emmerich. With Godzilla's global reputation, the box office is quite secure. If you don't pay attention, it may explode. Simon doesn't want to see Sony Pictures hit any more. After a little thought, Simon turned to the computer on his desk and sent an e-mail to Amy Pascal directly, asking her to try to contact the Japanese to cut the beard. At the end of the paper, Simon managed to find a big hole. Kevin Costner is lobbying around Hollywood for a project called 2013 the ultimate messengers. This is a science fiction story adapted from a novel. After the outbreak of the nuclear war, an end of life tramp accidentally acquired a set of postman equipment, and then began to pretend that the postman wandered among various gathering places, and unexpectedly became the spiritual leader among the end of life residents. Kevin Costner, this is obviously a pair of unwilling "future water world" failure to tie with the momentum of the eschatological film.However, Simon also remembers it very well because it was once a heavy bomb that failed to be tragic. Once upon a time, the 2013 ultimate miracle was invested by Warner, released at the end of this year, and then disappeared. Now, because everyone's life is not so good, Costner hasn't got any investment until now, and Sony is just one of the negotiation objects. Moreover, according to the information given by Chris Lee, Sony is obviously not very popular. Now the question is how to make Sony catch a cold. In fact, the method is also simple. As long as danielis shows her interest in entertainment, just like the script "bad things" which was robbed some time ago, this move has been tried repeatedly in Hollywood. Of course, we should also avoid self defeating. Simon thought it over carefully, but he didn't choose to do the same thing again. Instead, he planned to let Chris Lee run it by himself. Even if Sony's top management was very hard on Sony Pictures' team card, there would be no room for operation. What about the details? Simon is confident in the ability of Hollywood natives to fool investors. This is another test. After sorting out these, Simon quickly typed out a note on the computer, transferred it to girl a's mailbox, and asked her to send someone to print it out and send it to Chris Lee. It also prompts you not to use e-mail. After all, this kind of thing is not suitable to leave evidence after all. Simon continued to be busy until the Boeing 767 landed at Heathrow Airport in London. The local time was more than 9:00 p.m. on April 10. It was late at night when I got to the mansion on Kensington Garden Street in downtown London. Simon had just entered the door, but a small figure came first, bent down and opened her arms to catch him. The five-year-old girl, like a koala, put her hands and feet on Simon and yelled "Dad". Then she put her head on Simon's shoulder and there was no movement in the twinkling of an eye. Obviously I'm asleep. It's really too late for children. Yulia shurchigina, together with Ivana antoinenko and Natalia banhikova, came forward. Seeing her daughter Nina being held in the arms of a man, she was quite considerate and spoiled. Shurchigina could not help feeling some warmth in her heart, but reached out and said, "Sir, I'll come." Simon shook his head. "No, where's the bedroom? I'll take the kid up." So Simon couldn't help thinking of six women who were pregnant at the same time. It's all confirmed. It's all boys. Six kids. Simon is under a lot of pressure. He doesn't have a cotton padded jacket. In my arms, although I don't see many people on weekdays, it also gives Simon the feeling of a small cotton padded jacket. Schulthina listened to Simon's words and quickly led the way. Ivana antoinenko subconsciously wants to keep up with him, but she still has some regrets. She didn't let her daughter Vera wait with her. If she can be so spoiled by men, her status around him will be much higher. Instead of following, Natalia banchikova welcomed girl a and Carmen case, helping arrange the luggage and accommodation for Simon's entourage. When he came to a bedroom upstairs, Simon was just about to put the sleeping girl on the bed. Unexpectedly, the girl immediately woke up and entangled Simon again. Simon had to hold it for a while. When the little girl fell asleep again, tried again and woke up again. Shuershijinna had to step forward and said in a soft voice, "baby, dad will have a rest, and you can see it tomorrow. Don't pester people." Little guy still hands and feet and ground around Simon, smell words: "that, I and Dad, and mom, sleep together." Shuershiggina blushed and immediately shook her head: "no way." Girl confused: "why ah?" Simon saw shuershiggina's voice and said with a smile, "because Nina is a big girl, of course she can't sleep with her parents." Obviously, the little girl didn't understand the cause and effect logic. She blinked her pretty eyes, and said quickly, "Nina is not big, Nina is only five years old." "Five years old is already a big girl," Simon said patiently. "Well behaved, if you don't listen, Dad won't come to see you in the future." The girl hugged Simon's little arm and immediately tightened it. Her face showed an expression of grievance. She looked at her mother and saw that Shure higgina also nodded. Then she turned to Simon again: "well, dad is going to read Nina stories, bedtime stories." "Yes, but Nina has to lie in bed by herself first." "Well." After so much persuasion, the girl finally opened Simon and shrunk to her little bed. She tried to keep her eyes open and didn't want to sleep. It's a pity that children are not good at staying up all night. Simon took a children's book at the head of the bed, but after reading less than two pages, the little man fell asleep.
