Although there are some differences with Disney, the protagonists of "shaking the cradle's hands" are soon determined.

Not only Rebecca demoney, the original villain No. 1, but also the other leading characters. After another month of preparation, the film is expected to start in December.

In addition, sleeping with the enemy, the first film to be released next summer, has been officially launched in North Carolina on the east coast.

On October 27, with the release of several new films such as scream 2, the Halloween schedule began.

Due to the great success of the previous two years' Halloween schedules such as "death is coming" and "scream", Hollywood film companies have paid more attention to the festival, and the schedules inevitably become crowded.

In addition to scream 2, five other new films were released on the same day. Of course, only new world film's scream 2, universal film's alien monster and Warner Brothers' notice the world of yin and Yang have more than 1000 screens. The other three new films are only a few hundred or even a few small screens.

Among them, "alien monsters", produced by universal pictures, left the production of Ron Macmillan, who worked for danielis entertainment.

Although Denise entertainment has cooperated with universal pictures on the 10th day of danger, there are still some popular articles in the media, such as "alien monster", "touch porcelain" and "scream 2". Globegroup is very good at keeping a proper balance, and it doesn't arouse many contradictions. This kind of "touch the porcelain" is a kind of promotion to the popularity of the two films, so Denise entertainment will let it go.

Because of the box office failure of the sequel of "death is coming" and "Butterfly Effect", danielis entertainment is unavoidably worried about the commercial prospect of "scream 2".

However, it is probably because the scream series is a complete story, rather than the sequels of death and the butterfly effect, which just use the template of the first song and most of the creators quit, that the popularity of scream 2 has not lost much.

Combined with Denise Entertainment's relentless publicity campaign, "scream 2" won $22.63 million in the first three days of the first weekend, which is more than the box office data of the first seven days of the first week.

In contrast, the box office of alien monster, which tells the story of a small town attacked by mutated insects, was only $5.91 million in the same period. Although it ranked second on the weekend list, the figure was less than a third of that of scream 2.

Warner Bros.'s announcement of the world of yin and Yang 'took in $3.55 million at the box office in the first weekend, ranking third. It still hasn't posed any threat to scream 2.

After that, the other films on the weekend box office list are not worth mentioning.

Janet is not around for Halloween, and Catherine hasn't been to Los Angeles for a long time. The female assistant still lives in her uncle's house. She spends the holiday with her relatives. Simon has to choose a party in a circle at random to pass the holiday.

Santa Monica.

It's November 2, Thursday.

Denise entertainment headquarters, the meeting about blockbuster IPO lasted one afternoon.

After several months of preparation, blockbuster has basically confirmed that it will conduct an IPO in January next year. It plans to issue 15 million new shares, roughly equivalent to 22% of the original 68 million shares. The specific IPO price is still under negotiation with Morgan Stanley, which is responsible for the IPO underwriting. It is expected to be between $13 and $15, with a total financing of about $200 million.

According to the estimated issue price, blockbuster's valuation has more than doubled to nearly $1 billion, compared with $400 million when Daniels entertainment took a stake.

At the same time, danilisi entertainment will ensure that its 35% shareholding in blockbuster remains unchanged by participating in the subscription.

Blockbuster chairman Wayne hueizanga and his original partners had enough shares to compete with danielis entertainment. After the IPO, Wayne hueizanga's stake in blockbuster fell to 7%, and several other partners, including Wayne hueizanga himself, also held less than 20%.

Danielis entertainment, which still holds 35% of the shares, will become the largest shareholder of blockbuster with the most powerful voice.

send blockbuster's senior management team out of the company's headquarters, Simon is about to return to his office, and Nancy Brill follows up: "Simon, Ninja Turtle game will be released tomorrow, the box of cards I gave you last time Yes. Did you try it out? "

"I'm too busy recently. Please let me go. I've already told you all my opinions." Simon took his little female executive up the stairs and said, "by the way, have you discussed with blockbuster's management about accepting danielis analytics?"

When Nancy saw Simon change the subject, she just said, "no, I think it's a good situation now. By continuously charging consulting fees from blockbuster, it's enough to meet the operation of the analysis company, and the headquarters itself can get a lot of useful information more easily."

"You are right to think so, but after the company goes public, what shareholders will see is that blockbuster may only pay high fees to a consulting company that they may not need, or even be regarded as an illegal transfer of interests.""Since blockbuster has chosen IPO, even if it doesn't do so, there will still be other kinds of doubts," Nancy said, not caring. "Moreover, if someone asks questions at that time, the way to deal with them is actually very simple. Denise entertainment can pay to buy their shares."

Simon was stunned, then said with a smile: "good idea."

Now that we have chosen to go public, it is inevitable to accept market supervision and questioning.

Simon is just not satisfied with the company's 35% stake in blockbuster. If someone really jumps out to find fault, danilisi entertainment can buy back more shares.

When she came to the office, without waiting for Simon to yield, Nancy sat down at his desk.

Simon leaned on the leather chair, looked at the woman sitting opposite and said, "if you feel uncomfortable, don't always wear high heels. It's not good for your health."

Some accidents flashed on Nancy's face. I didn't expect Simon to find such small details.

It's not easy to step on hentiangao for a long time. Nancy would never stand if she could sit, and she would take off her shoes secretly in her office. However, she didn't plan to admit this to a little man and said, "no, I like wearing high heels best."

Simon just shrugged his shoulders and looked down to open a script of "home with a kid" that John Hughes passed on this morning.

It's past work time. Because of the meeting in the afternoon, there are no other arrangements. Simon is used to leaving the company at six or seven o'clock, so he plans to read the play "home by the kid" again.

Nancy saw that Simon didn't pursue his high heels any more. After a moment, she said again, "Simon, do you think our water trial in the field of video games can be successful?"

Simon did not look up, with a smile in his voice, and said: "at the beginning, but you took dozens of pages of planning book to encourage me to invest, now you have no confidence?"

"Of course not. I have done everything I can, and if I fail, I will continue to do so. The scale and profits of the video game industry are obvious to all." Nancy shook her head and said, "I just think you have a special attitude towards this project."

"Why do you say that?"

"For example, you are very strict with the budget of other projects of the company, and the budget of ninja turtle has doubled, so you didn't say anything."

Simon looked up at Nancy and nodded, "well, I really valued this project from the beginning."

Nancy was not satisfied with the answer, and continued to ask, "what else?"

Simon looked up at the opposite side, leaned slightly, looked at the woman with strong curiosity, and said with a smile, "do you really want to know?"

Nancy felt the little man's eyes, suddenly understood something, instinctively shook her head and said: "I don't want to!"

Simon turned his attention back to the script in front of him and said, "then go back and have a rest early."

Nancy nodded, but didn't get up. She still couldn't help asking, "you're not afraid of losing money one day, eh?"

Simon shook his head: "not afraid."

Nancy whispered something when she thought of what Janet called someone in private.

Without saying hello, he got up and left Simon's office.

When she came outside and saw that Jennifer was still dutifully behind her desk, Nancy was inexplicably dissatisfied. She stepped forward and said, "Jenny, do you want to have dinner together?"

"I have something else to talk to Simon," she declined, somewhat surprised by Nancy's sudden invitation

Nancy came to the assistant's desk and said, "now tell him I'll wait for you."

Jennifer just shook her head again.

Watching Nancy leave in disbelief, Jennifer sorts out the papers on her desk, gets up, knocks on the door, walks into Simon's office, and says, "I just called from Santa Monica airport. The plane arrived at 6 o'clock. Would you like to go and have a look?"

The scheduled Boeing 767-200er had been delivered a few days ago, but Simon sent the plane directly to Australia.

In my memory, there is a lot of news that private airplanes have been installed with eavesdroppers. Even some airplanes ordered by heads of state are all very large eavesdroppers. Simon doesn't trust Boeing or even the anti eavesdropping detection team in the United States. Therefore, Janet is asked to conduct a comprehensive inspection on that plane first.

Since the smooth return, I think there should be no problem.

Looking up at his watch, Simon said to Jennifer, "let's go to New York for dinner. We'll stay there tonight."

"Now fly over and it's supposed to be one o'clock in the morning when we get to the east coast," she said, blushing

"Oh, I forgot the jet lag," Simon thought and said, "then go to Hawaii. It's still evening."

Jennifer shook her head again and said, "there's no house over there. Do you want to stay in a hotel?"

Simon certainly won't tell Jennifer about the last time he took two women to Hawaii for the weekend. The female assistant is different from other women. He didn't want to borrow a flat from others, so he simply said, "it's on the plane. You've seen the interior design of the cabin. It seems very good inside.""I don't want to be on the plane. You can fly by yourself. I'm going to get off work," Simon said
