Sophia, who was chatting with a guest, felt a big hand around her waist and looked at the man beside her. She said, "I didn't think I'd see you tonight."
Simon nodded to the opposite guest and said to Sophia, "it's time we went back."
"Good."
Sophia agreed with a smile, and they went out of the auction house with some necessary guests.
After getting on the bus, Sophia cleverly didn't mention a woman at the reception, but said: "Agnelli just asked me about the investment details of westero system in China. It seems that he doesn't intend to give up entering China."
In the auction house's lounge, Sophia also listened to Simon's conversation with Jenny Agnelli.
Simon said: "that's for sure, but whether we can succeed or not is another matter."
"I think he still wants to work with us."
"The key is the issue of control. If Fiat enters China, Agnelli will not give up the control of the project, and if he can't win the initiative, I won't participate in it, so there is no agreement at all."
Sophia looked at the little man beside her, with a touch of love and admiration in her voice: "if it was me, I would be very willing to take a step back. This is a cooperation with Simon westero."
"It's hard to imagine how wonderful the world would be if everyone could make rational and right choices."
"Anyway, with you, my world is the best."
Simon reached for the woman's face and gave it a kiss. He suddenly turned serious: "it's no use flattering me. I'm very tired in the afternoon. I won't do anything tonight."
Sophia gives someone a white look, and then comes over again. They kiss each other again.
The newspapers did not specify which side the so-called "anti French forces" were.
There was also a note next to the report explaining that although the Western newspaper claimed to be neutral, it was actually the mouthpiece of the French government. Simon immediately understood that it was probably like a super newspaper in China.
Then there was a French left-wing humanitarian.
Compared with the Western newspaper's deliberate placement of articles on related events in a lower page, the humanitarian newspaper directly made the front page headlines and briefly reviewed the Rwanda massacre that shocked the world two years ago. At the same time, the article strongly urged the French government to set up a special investigation team to investigate the French military members who might be involved in the massacre that year.
The article also criticizes a series of military policies of current President Chirac, especially the nuclear test program which was restarted since he took office last year.
After taking office in June 1995, the French government suddenly announced to restart the nuclear test. From September 1995 to January 1996, in less than half a year, the French army intensively conducted six consecutive nuclear tests in the French New Caledonia islands in the South Pacific. "Humanitarian" criticized Chirac's move may trigger a new round of nuclear arms race and bring the whole mankind into an unknown dangerous situation.
If you look at other newspapers, your attitude is basically half to half.
Without leaning on one side, we can imagine the pressure of public opinion faced by the French government at this time. After all, the accusation of participating in the Holocaust, like that of Germany, once it is labeled, it will remain tainted for decades or centuries, and even become an original sin.
Because Chirac, a right-wing politician, came to power, the already disharmonious us us French relations became tense again.
Although Simon's use of Rwanda to attack France is out of personal resentment, it actually coincides with the general trend. This incident will not end with an article in the New York Times yesterday, but until the French government gives Simon an account in private.
Or, it may not explain, but tear face against each other.
Simon had no fear of it.
At that time, the westero system will lose some business in France at most, and it is difficult to determine what France will lose.
After browsing several newspapers quickly, the Boeing 767 also set sail smoothly and stabilized at high altitude.
Simon called in a waitress and asked her to take Alexandra to breakfast, where she could visit the cabin. Knowing that Simon was going to discuss work with his assistant, Alexandra obediently followed the waitress away.
Only Simon was left, and girl a reported something that Simon needed to know.
Today is mainly about movies.
"The news came from Los Angeles that Jiahe refused our cooperation plan for Police Story 4 and turned to Disney. Disney has offered a 28% North American box office share scheme, five points more than our share scheme, and is willing to make more concessions in publicity and follow-up channels. Denny's last attempt to retain the film failed yesterday. He could only send a restriction letter to Jiahe, asking that the film should not use the script ideas discussed by both sides in the past, let alone imitate the "rush hour" series. "
There's no need to say more about the police story series.
According to common sense, Jack Cheng should focus on Hollywood after the success of "rush hour" series. However, "Police Story 4" is a cooperation project that has been promised to the old owners before the shooting of "rush hour". With the relationship between Jack Cheng and Jiahe, of course, we can't break our promise.After rush hour's big boom in North America, Jiahe, who has been trying to enter Hollywood for so many years, certainly will not miss this opportunity to revise the script that has been completed, and plan to make police story 4 an international film that will hit Hollywood again.
Simply put, it is to add overseas characters and related storylines, and shoot overseas.
It's like "the red zone.".
The first step in the re planning of the project, of course, is to select Hollywood partners. The new world film team of danielis entertainment, which has been cooperating happily several times before, is naturally the first choice, and the new world film industry has also responded positively.
However, because of the success of rush hour, Jiahe began to try to fight for more interests. Especially recently, there happened to be a negative case like black man, and Jiahe was more determined.
At least it's impossible to sell out the copyright this time.
After the re planning of the project, the new world film team is relatively optimistic about the box office of Police Story 4, which is only about US $50 million. After all, the project itself has some defects that can not be fully integrated into Hollywood. The US $50 million is still based on the popularity of rush hour.
All in all, the new world film industry can not give too far conditions. So it was snatched away by Hollywood's other studios, and finally went to Disney.
When overseas films are distributed in North America, if the producers ask for a share, they usually have only a dozen points, and few of them have more than 20%. Because of the nature of the film itself, most of the distributors would get a share from the cinema line that is lower than the standard 55%, and the distribution share they charge is generally higher than the Hollywood average.
Although police story 4 is a special project, Jiahe does not intend to let outsiders interfere in the investment. New world film only makes distribution, and it is quite generous to offer 23% of the pure share under the promise of all inclusive publicity. After all, this is a film with a clear Hong Kong film base, and the risk is not small.
What's more, without enough profit driven, why should new world film give you resources to release its own films? After all, the annual film schedule and film resources are limited.
Disney's share ratio seems to be only five points higher than that of new world pictures, but it has made another concession in publicity and follow-up channels. Even according to the optimistic box office expectation of $50 million, there is little profit, unless the film is as successful as rush hour.
Just this kind of probability, can't say absolutely, but it's not much higher than the possibility of a certain country's men's football team entering the world cup.
The assistant said and looked at Simon.
Simon just nodded to show that he knew.
Disney, which is controlled by Vivendi, is in the same state as Sony. They are eager to create a situation and launch some high-quality projects, so they don't care about their interests.
You can imagine the end.
Seeing that her boss didn't want to fight for it again, girl a continued: "in China, after we sent out the invitation, several Chinese directors gave a positive response. This is the plan put forward by Zhang, Chen and other directors."
After the launch of Crouching Tiger, hidden dragon, and the recent success of black man, Simon plans to make several other ancient Chinese films simultaneously, including martial arts, war and fantasy, in order to give a hand to Jeter Lee. So he invited some famous Chinese directors to show Chinese culture, while taking care of the taste of Western audiences.
Moreover, the planned investment of 15 million to 30 million US dollars is only medium in Hollywood, so the risk can be controlled. However, in China, it is an absolute sky high price investment in this era. Just like the Opium War, which director Xie is making, the 100 million investment, equivalent to less than 15 million US dollars, has been the concern of the whole country.
Simon, of course, doesn't invest in these projects for good, which can be said to have multiple purposes.
First of all, it is to make money. Second, it can further narrow the relationship with Chinese officials. And then, these big movies, on the one hand, can activate the Chinese film market, on the other hand, can ease the rebound of the Chinese film industry against the invasion of Hollywood films.
Simon, on the other hand, is a little selfish.
Such a large-scale investment can also maximize the use of China's film and television resources. Needless to say, we can also pull out several divisions of the army to shoot large-scale war movies with shocking scenes. Similar images are quite precious, and they can still be used in recent years. After the new century, both East and West will no longer have them, so we can only use special effects .
Because the black man, Simon's first goal is actually hero.
When the film was just released in China, it was a curse, but it was absolutely successful at the box office.
Moreover, ten or twenty years later, when the domestic audience encountered a large number of rotten movies, they found out how well produced and sincere those blockbusters were at the beginning of the century in order to open up the western market. Looking back again, the actor's performance and camera pictures were perfect. At the same time, even the story and plot were worth remembering.
The hero used to be an old tactician. It was only after the success of Crouching Tiger, hidden dragon that it followed suit. Now it has no shadow.Simon looked through the ideas provided by several Chinese directors, and the ideas were quite good, but hero was safer. After all, it had proved successful, so he planned to provide his own ideas and let his old friends improve them. This is not Simon's conservative idea, but his consideration of China.
Danylis entertainment can stand failure, but if the project specifically for China fails, many goals will not be achieved.
Simon looked at the plans of several Chinese directors and motioned Alison to continue.
"A girl then said:" also, in the UK, the temporary famous film industry team has negotiated the cooperation agreements with Guy Ritchie and Peter cartanew on "two big smokes" and "six heroes of the pig". The adaptation right of BJ's single diary is still under negotiation, but there are only some final details left, and the problem is not big. "
Simon's European tour of the former "two big guns" was released in 1998, the script has now been completed.
Guy Ritchie's experience is similar to that of Quentin. He worked as a film projectionist, and then began to shoot short films and MVs. After his short film hard shell attracted the attention of the industry last year, he began to look for investment in his first long film script two big smokers. In history, Guy Ritchie and his partners spent more than a year just to raise money for the shooting of two big smokes. The film was released in 1998 and made a big hit.
Now, Simon cuts his beard ahead of time.
In addition, "six heroes of the pig" is as famous as "Four Weddings and a funeral", and "two big smokes" is even more popular at the box office. This is a low-cost film about several laid-off workers in the process of England's economic depression who want to become strippers in a new way. In history, with a production cost of only 2 million pounds, this film has won more than 250 million US dollars at the box office worldwide, and it is the top box office champion in the UK.
It's also the director's first feature film Peter cartaneu. The reason why this project, which should have been unknown, came into Simon's view is mainly because of the recommendation of Robert Carlisle, the star of "guess the train", which was bought by danielis entertainment during the Sundance period this year. The director of "the six heroes of the pig" found Carlisle with the script and hoped that he could take part in it. Carlisle likes it very much Just because guess the train has established contact with the team of danielis entertainment, it is recommended.
Simon took it again.
The last one is BJ's single diary, which has been published in a British newspaper since last year, just like sex and the city, which has been produced by Denise entertainment. BJ's single diary was released in 2001, with a cost of 25 million US dollars, a global box office of 280 million US dollars and a series of films.
Now that I have met Simon, I will not let him go.
In addition to China and Britain, as well as Italy, Simon has also personally finalized two projects during his European tour, one is Giuseppe tonadore's "the pianist at sea" and the other is Roberto benini's "beautiful life".
Both of them are classic films that have been widely known all over the world.
In fact, the layout of China, Britain and Italy is an important part of Simon's new stage film strategy for danielis entertainment design. Moreover, Simon has been paving the way for this in the past few years.
After the Hollywood film pattern is determined, danelis entertainment will no longer retain its strength from this year, and the three brands will break out in an all-round way.
Similarly, worldwide, Simon also plans to blossom in an all-round way, investing more resources to support filmmakers in various overseas markets to produce excellent films. While providing diversified film sources for North America, Simon can also directly distribute in relevant markets. On the one hand, Simon can earn profits, on the other hand, Simon can reduce the hostility and rebound of Hollywood invasion in various overseas markets, at least Danielle Silk entertainment produced films in various overseas markets.
For other individuals or companies, this comprehensive plan is actually very difficult to operate.
After all, no one can be omniscient enough to be familiar with the film market all over the world. If they do this blindly, they may lose everything. Simon is a very special exception because he is a prophet of two generations.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
Sophia, who was chatting with a guest, felt a big hand around her waist and looked at the man beside her. She said, "I didn't think I'd see you tonight."

He could only send a restriction letter to Jiahe, asking that the film should not use the script ideas discussed by both sides in the past, let alone imitate the "rush hour" series. " There's no need to say more about the police story series. According to common sense, Jack Cheng should focus on Hollywood after the success of "rush hour" series. However, "Police Story 4" is a cooperation project that has been promised to the old owners before the shooting of "rush hour". With the relationship between Jack Cheng and Jiahe, of course, we can't break our promise.After rush hour's big boom in North America, Jiahe, who has been trying to enter Hollywood for so many years, certainly will not miss this opportunity to revise the script that has been completed, and plan to make police story 4 an international film that will hit Hollywood again. Simply put, it is to add overseas characters and related storylines, and shoot overseas. It's like "the red zone.". The first step in the re planning of the project, of course, is to select Hollywood partners. The new world film team of danielis entertainment, which has been cooperating happily several times before, is naturally the first choice, and the new world film industry has also responded positively. However, because of the success of rush hour, Jiahe began to try to fight for more interests. Especially recently, there happened to be a negative case like black man, and Jiahe was more determined. At least it's impossible to sell out the copyright this time. After the re planning of the project, the new world film team is relatively optimistic about the box office of Police Story 4, which is only about US $50 million. After all, the project itself has some defects that can not be fully integrated into Hollywood. The US $50 million is still based on the popularity of rush hour. All in all, the new world film industry can not give too far conditions. So it was snatched away by Hollywood's other studios, and finally went to Disney. When overseas films are distributed in North America, if the producers ask for a share, they usually have only a dozen points, and few of them have more than 20%. Because of the nature of the film itself, most of the distributors would get a share from the cinema line that is lower than the standard 55%, and the distribution share they charge is generally higher than the Hollywood average. Although police story 4 is a special project, Jiahe does not intend to let outsiders interfere in the investment. New world film only makes distribution, and it is quite generous to offer 23% of the pure share under the promise of all inclusive publicity. After all, this is a film with a clear Hong Kong film base, and the risk is not small. What's more, without enough profit driven, why should new world film give you resources to release its own films? After all, the annual film schedule and film resources are limited. Disney's share ratio seems to be only five points higher than that of new world pictures, but it has made another concession in publicity and follow-up channels. Even according to the optimistic box office expectation of $50 million, there is little profit, unless the film is as successful as rush hour. Just this kind of probability, can't say absolutely, but it's not much higher than the possibility of a certain country's men's football team entering the world cup. The assistant said and looked at Simon. Simon just nodded to show that he knew. Disney, which is controlled by Vivendi, is in the same state as Sony. They are eager to create a situation and launch some high-quality projects, so they don't care about their interests. You can imagine the end. Seeing that her boss didn't want to fight for it again, girl a continued: "in China, after we sent out the invitation, several Chinese directors gave a positive response. This is the plan put forward by Zhang, Chen and other directors." After the launch of Crouching Tiger, hidden dragon, and the recent success of black man, Simon plans to make several other ancient Chinese films simultaneously, including martial arts, war and fantasy, in order to give a hand to Jeter Lee. So he invited some famous Chinese directors to show Chinese culture, while taking care of the taste of Western audiences. Moreover, the planned investment of 15 million to 30 million US dollars is only medium in Hollywood, so the risk can be controlled. However, in China, it is an absolute sky high price investment in this era. Just like the Opium War, which director Xie is making, the 100 million investment, equivalent to less than 15 million US dollars, has been the concern of the whole country. Simon, of course, doesn't invest in these projects for good, which can be said to have multiple purposes. First of all, it is to make money. Second, it can further narrow the relationship with Chinese officials. And then, these big movies, on the one hand, can activate the Chinese film market, on the other hand, can ease the rebound of the Chinese film industry against the invasion of Hollywood films. Simon, on the other hand, is a little selfish. Such a large-scale investment can also maximize the use of China's film and television resources. Needless to say, we can also pull out several divisions of the army to shoot large-scale war movies with shocking scenes. Similar images are quite precious, and they can still be used in recent years. After the new century, both East and West will no longer have them, so we can only use special effects . Because the black man, Simon's first goal is actually hero. When the film was just released in China, it was a curse, but it was absolutely successful at the box office. Moreover, ten or twenty years later, when the domestic audience encountered a large number of rotten movies, they found out how well produced and sincere those blockbusters were at the beginning of the century in order to open up the western market. Looking back again, the actor's performance and camera pictures were perfect. At the same time, even the story and plot were worth remembering. The hero used to be an old tactician. It was only after the success of Crouching Tiger, hidden dragon that it followed suit. Now it has no shadow.Simon looked through the ideas provided by several Chinese directors, and the ideas were quite good, but hero was safer. After all, it had proved successful, so he planned to provide his own ideas and let his old friends improve them. This is not Simon's conservative idea, but his consideration of China. Danylis entertainment can stand failure, but if the project specifically for China fails, many goals will not be achieved. Simon looked at the plans of several Chinese directors and motioned Alison to continue. "A girl then said:" also, in the UK, the temporary famous film industry team has negotiated the cooperation agreements with Guy Ritchie and Peter cartanew on "two big smokes" and "six heroes of the pig". The adaptation right of BJ's single diary is still under negotiation, but there are only some final details left, and the problem is not big. " Simon's European tour of the former "two big guns" was released in 1998, the script has now been completed. Guy Ritchie's experience is similar to that of Quentin. He worked as a film projectionist, and then began to shoot short films and MVs. After his short film hard shell attracted the attention of the industry last year, he began to look for investment in his first long film script two big smokers. In history, Guy Ritchie and his partners spent more than a year just to raise money for the shooting of two big smokes. The film was released in 1998 and made a big hit. Now, Simon cuts his beard ahead of time. In addition, "six heroes of the pig" is as famous as "Four Weddings and a funeral", and "two big smokes" is even more popular at the box office. This is a low-cost film about several laid-off workers in the process of England's economic depression who want to become strippers in a new way. In history, with a production cost of only 2 million pounds, this film has won more than 250 million US dollars at the box office worldwide, and it is the top box office champion in the UK. It's also the director's first feature film Peter cartaneu. The reason why this project, which should have been unknown, came into Simon's view is mainly because of the recommendation of Robert Carlisle, the star of "guess the train", which was bought by danielis entertainment during the Sundance period this year. The director of "the six heroes of the pig" found Carlisle with the script and hoped that he could take part in it. Carlisle likes it very much Just because guess the train has established contact with the team of danielis entertainment, it is recommended. Simon took it again. The last one is BJ's single diary, which has been published in a British newspaper since last year, just like sex and the city, which has been produced by Denise entertainment. BJ's single diary was released in 2001, with a cost of 25 million US dollars, a global box office of 280 million US dollars and a series of films. Now that I have met Simon, I will not let him go. In addition to China and Britain, as well as Italy, Simon has also personally finalized two projects during his European tour, one is Giuseppe tonadore's "the pianist at sea" and the other is Roberto benini's "beautiful life". Both of them are classic films that have been widely known all over the world. In fact, the layout of China, Britain and Italy is an important part of Simon's new stage film strategy for danielis entertainment design. Moreover, Simon has been paving the way for this in the past few years. After the Hollywood film pattern is determined, danelis entertainment will no longer retain its strength from this year, and the three brands will break out in an all-round way. Similarly, worldwide, Simon also plans to blossom in an all-round way, investing more resources to support filmmakers in various overseas markets to produce excellent films. While providing diversified film sources for North America, Simon can also directly distribute in relevant markets. On the one hand, Simon can earn profits, on the other hand, Simon can reduce the hostility and rebound of Hollywood invasion in various overseas markets, at least Danielle Silk entertainment produced films in various overseas markets. For other individuals or companies, this comprehensive plan is actually very difficult to operate. After all, no one can be omniscient enough to be familiar with the film market all over the world. If they do this blindly, they may lose everything. Simon is a very special exception because he is a prophet of two generations.
