When Simon was in Ukraine, this year's 52nd Annual Golden Globe Awards Dinner opened at 6:00 p.m. west coast time on January 28.

Just in the past year, as of December 31, 1994, the total box office in North America not only broke through the $6 billion mark for the first time, but also raised the record to an amazing high of $6.61 billion at one time, an increase of 15.3% compared with the total box office of $5.73 billion in 1993.

People in the industry who know a little bit about the North American film market can feel how amazing this data is.

In the past, the North American film market always showed a steady growth trend with the increase of ticket prices and the recovery of the film industry, but the usual annual growth rate was rarely more than 10%.

For example, in 1993, compared with the total box office of US $5.36 billion in 1992, the annual increase was only 6.9%.

In the past and never happened history, only in the year when phenomenal box office blockbusters such as ET and Titanic emerged, can the annual box office growth of North American film market reach more than 10%.

This time in 1994, it was the same.

In the past year, for the first time in Hollywood's history, four blockbusters with a local box office of $300 million appeared at the same time, namely "Batman: the rise of the Dark Knight", "Forrest Gump", "Toy Story 2" and "suicide squad".

Batman: the rise of the dark knight, the local box office champion of the year, grossed 416 million US dollars.

Although Toy Story 2 and suicide squad, which were scheduled to be released at the end of last year, did not break the $300 million threshold as of December 31 last year, this did not prevent the explosion of the film market in 1994.

From the beginning of last year's "Four Weddings and a funeral" and "spy plane head" to the summer season's "Stargate", "true lies" and then to the end of the year's "night visit to vampires", "disguised geek", and so on, people are dizzying.

Of course, the whole Hollywood in the past year has also felt more than ever the tenacity of Denise entertainment group.

As of December 31, 1994, "Batman: the rise of the Dark Knight", "Forrest Gump", "Toy Story 2", "suicide squad", "true lies", "evocation", "stealing the line of fire", "burning eyebrow chase", "the morgue haunted event", "Stargate", ten films, have nothing to do with danelis entertainment The film, only produced by Paramount "burning eyebrow pursuit" this one.

Among them, the other five films, four weddings and a funeral, speed of life and death, Romeo stained with blood, visiting vampires at night and freaks in disguise, which have entered the box office threshold of 100 million yuan, or even failed to enter the top ten of this year's list because they are still on show.

Even though the box office rose sharply in 1994, the excessive strength of this series of blockbusters squeezed the box office space of many other films. Some films that should have been sold well in history, such as "gambler Ma Huali" and so on, suffered the most serious box office shrinkage, even half.

It can be said that under the influence of Simon, the super butterfly, Hollywood has entered the super blockbuster era in which the box office of the top list films is lawless and the market space of the middle and low level films is seriously compressed.

Even if Simon deliberately suppressed the development frequency of the film, he still failed to delay the occurrence of this trend.

Fortunately, because the new era has just begun, the situation has not deteriorated to the dilemma that it is difficult to survive for non free and non sequel blockbusters, "Forrest Gump", "stealing the thread of fire", "Four Weddings and a funeral" and other excellent films still have the opportunity to play their market potential.

At the same time, Simon's Hollywood low-cost art film field, which is supported by gaomen film industry, also has considerable market space.

From the list of nominated films for the new Golden Globe Awards, it is not difficult to see that just like in the field of commercial films, 1994 was also a year of great harvest for literary and artistic films.

In addition to Forrest Gump, which can be listed as the pinnacle of artistic films, there are also a series of films nominated for the award season this year, such as four weddings and a funeral, natural killer, little woman, years of passion, Nell's heart, wisdom like a fool, bullets flying on Broadway and so on.

Whether it's business or art, the year of "God sees the movie" quietly promoted by Denise entertainment is worthy of the name.

The biggest difference in the details of this year's Golden Globe Awards is that many award-winning filmmakers have been clearly reminded in advance that they no longer need to thank Simon in the process of delivering their acceptance speech.

This will be the case for the whole award season, or for many years to come.

Simon intends to become an invisible person, but it doesn't prevent Denise Entertainment's films from showing off at the Golden Globe Awards.

The two core best picture awards of plot and musical comedy, one belongs to Forrest Gump and the other is won by four weddings and a funeral, all fall into the hands of Denise entertainment.Other important awards include best director, two best actors, one best actress and so on. TV series awards, friends, desperate housewives, stories from the emergency room, and so on, have also made great achievements.

Neither Denise entertainment nor the Organizing Committee of the Golden Globes have considered the balance.

However, in such a dazzling film year, for the sake of the so-called balance, those excellent films will appear deliberately.

During the three hour Golden Globe Award dinner, igritte portal broadcast the award results with pictures and pictures, and introduced the audience discussion mode immediately.

According to the feedback from the audience, compared with previous years, this year's Golden Globe Award was less controversial.

Ukraine is ten hours earlier than the west coast of the United States.

When the Golden Globes dinner opened, it was already four o'clock in the morning on Sunday.

Simon got up at seven o'clock in the morning, and the complete award results were just released. The party after the award dinner has already started in Los Angeles.

During the run, Simon simply glanced at the results of the awards. He just asked girl a to send a greeting card to each winner in her personal name, which he learned from Michael owitz.

It's not surprising that people are polite.

Breakfast time, today's table has an extra Eve besonovskova.

Women are probably born to compete.

After the first night before yesterday, the tall Ukrainian girl followed Simon's orders and "rested" on the big bed of the master bedroom for a whole day. Then, in the different reactions of a group of women in the villa, she successfully occupied Simon's second night.

This morning, Simon broke the girl's blush, stretching from her face to her neck. She buried her head tightly in the pillow and didn't dare to see anyone. Then she didn't lie on the bed any more. However, when she ate at the table, her head was always low and didn't dare to look at other people.

After breakfast, girl a introduces her schedule to Simon. Just as she is about to leave, Celia comes up with an excuse to sit with Simon. After the team starts, she takes out a document and hands it to Simon.

I'm going to the southwest suburb of livny in the morning.

Where does Simon plan to build an airport, so that when he comes to Ukraine in the future, private planes can directly stop at Livni. Moreover, as the city develops, the demand for commercial flights will increase significantly.

Because it's a small city airport with only one main runway, including the hangar and terminal building, and considering the local prices in Ukraine, it only made a budget of 15 million US dollars. In fact, this figure is a bit high, but Simon doesn't intend to reduce it any more. After all, it's something he wants to use.

The government of the state of Rovno has no money to participate in the construction of such an airport.

Therefore, the planned urban airport will be fully invested and wholly owned by oldek company, which is in charge of Sergey komorov. In the future, when the city develops, Simon will give up part of his shares to Ukrainian local capital if it is necessary to expand the airport.

In fact, there is another key to the operation of an airport: manpower.

This is the least of the problems in Ukraine.

After the collapse of the Soviet Union, Ukraine inherited as many as 2160 aircraft of various types from the former Soviet Union. Such a huge air force actually means that it is matched by a powerful air force.

Now, because there is not enough financial support, many planes are directly piled up in some abandoned military bases to eat ashes and rot.

In Simon's memory, more than ten years later, the number of aircraft owned by the Ukrainian air force was less than a fraction of 2160, and a large number of excellent air force talents were eliminated.

Therefore, not only the city airport, including the military theme park to be built this year, but also the real experience projects of various types of aircraft will be carried out.

As for the military theme park, Simon thought it would be troublesome. In fact, many senior generals in some military regions of Ukraine took the initiative to contact us and wanted to get orders for the military theme park from personnel to material.

Tanks? It's not a problem.

Plane, no problem!

Do you want a warship? Oh, Rovno is not near the sea, but it's OK to have a lake.

That's because Simon promised equity.

The westrow system only intends to take 40% of the shares of the military theme park, but does not intend to control the remaining 60%. The government of the state of Rovno took 15% at the cost of 20 square kilometers of land, and another 45%, who gets it is who gets it.

As a result, the theme park has actually become a major project that the Kiev authorities can not veto at all.

It's a tough time. Compared with smuggling weapons, it's a long-term income.

Especially when the planning team of the military theme park has solved the biggest moral problem of the project, all kinds of problems are not problems.

Before that, the Kiev authorities mainly worried that opening such a military theme park with national public equipment would attract ridicule from the international community and disgust from the public. The planning team easily solved this problem.In the name of peace.

After the collapse of the Soviet Union, peace is a major trend of public opinion all over the world.

No matter what is inside or on the surface, we all think that mankind has entered a new era of peace.

It is inevitable that weapons will be put into the south.

Ukraine has opened such a military theme park in order to make tourists cherish peace while feeling the tragedy of war.

Therefore, the name of this alternative theme park has also been locked in advance as "Ukraine peaceful military theme park".

If someone doubts it.

Hey, don't you love peace? Do you want war?

On the bus to the outskirts of livny, Celia gave Simon a completely handwritten application for agricultural loans.

One of the three remaining girls in the villa in the south of the city, Yeh, Katerina noskova's father, Maxim noskov, hopes to get an agricultural loan from Simon to help Rovno and some surrounding counties resume agricultural production.

Modern agriculture relies heavily on means of production.

This is the main reason why Ukraine's food production has plummeted in the past few years.

After the disintegration, Ukraine soon carried out the reform of land privatization, which not only distributed land to every citizen, but also directly transformed many large state-owned farms into private joint-stock companies. This radical reform, which does not consider the national conditions at all, not only causes the serious loss of state-owned assets, but also directly leads to the collapse of the country's agricultural production system.

Although they have obtained land, most of the farmers simply do not have enough capital to carry out agricultural production. Many of the land management is almost the same as the original slash and burn farming, sowing seeds and watching the harvest.

When Simon came to Ukraine for the first time in August last year, on his way from Kiev to Livni, his biggest feeling was that the vast fields that should have been full of crops were either directly abandoned or the crops were not overgrown. Because of the lack of agricultural machinery, pesticides, chemical fertilizers, in short, the lack of everything modern agriculture needs.

Without these, only land, it is doomed that there will not be too much output.

Last night, when he hosted a banquet at the villa in the south of the city for the core of vestro system in Ukraine, Maxim noskov, who is responsible for managing the layout of vestro system's fertilizer industry in Ukraine, was also present, and Simon was quite impressed. After other people attached to the vestro system, their clothes were quite bright when they attended the party, and only Maxim noskov was still in charge A little white wash can only be counted as a neat light gray old Lenin suit.

In private, many of the core executives here are concerned.

Simon knows that maxim noskov is not pretending to be simple, but really simple.

This middle-aged man, a retired former Soviet Navy captain, took over the chemical fertilizer plant from Simon. For more than half a year, Maxim has been working hard to restore the production of the chemical fertilizer plant and keep the jobs of all the employees in the plant.

Sergey komorov once suggested that maxim should first lay off the staff of several fertilizer plants merged locally and elsewhere, but the other party did not. In such an era, if he lost his job, the end would be very miserable.

However, Maxim did not regard Simon as a fat sheep. He not only reduced the salary of all his employees, but also took a minimum wage to barely support his family for half a year.

Now, looking at his handwritten application for agricultural loans, Simon realizes that this is probably where a nation's hope lies after a period of turmoil, a period of darkness that is insignificant but tries to reflect more light.

Every country and every nation has never lacked such people.

Unfortunately, in this country, the dark curtain is too heavy and the night is too dark. One or two candles can't change it.

Simon admired such people.

However, he did not intend to agree to the agricultural loan application in hand.

Simon is not the Savior and has no responsibility to revive the country.

Moreover, Simon does not doubt Maxim's original intention of applying for the agricultural loan, but doubts whether such a loan, once approved, will really be used for agricultural production.

Because it involves a lot of agricultural production individuals, whether these people will get the loan directly into their own pockets, or misappropriate it to other places, there is no guarantee at all, especially for some collective joint-stock farms. Simon doesn't know who to ask for the loan at that time.

Simon has heard a lot of similar cases even though he has no personal experience.

Simon, of course, can also use the intelligence system of vestro system in Ukraine for supervision, but he does not want to spend the resources and efforts.

There is no guarantee of human heart.

The purpose of providing this loan is to help others, but the supervision is too strict and the crackdown is too hard. On the contrary, it may unknowingly form a lot of resentment, and the gain is not worth the loss.
