Hollywood Hunter

Carefully served Simon over the breakfast, and respectfully sent his boss out.

When the car disappeared from sight, Zoe Parkes and Isabel Dunn looked at each other and ran upstairs to the villa together.

At the door of a certain bedroom on the second floor of Shell Villa, the two women stepped lightly at the same time, pushed the door quietly, walked through the outer living room, and came to the bedroom. They saw the situation in the room at a glance.

The big bed was obviously messy afterwards.

The housekeeper is still asleep, lying on her stomach, her head slightly sideways, her arms still holding the pillow, revealing a round shoulder.

However, the attention of the two women was attracted by the many "strawberries" on the skin that the housekeeper hugged outside.

It must be the same on the neck, arms, shoulders, or...in the quilt.

Slightly opened her mouth and looked at the probe, Isabel looked at Zoe beside her, her voice seemed to tremble and whispered: "It won't be, it's dead."

Isabel blinked, looked at Zoe, and whispered: "Isn't it... dead?"

He was immediately stunned.

Perceiving the movement next to her, the housekeeper quickly opened her eyes and noticed the two heads by the bed. After a brief period of confusion, she subconsciously pulled up the quilt to cover her body, and forced a small momentum to stare at Isabel and Zoe: " What are you doing?"

Zoe leaped on the bed and joked in his tone: "Ellie, did I get dumped?"

Alice wanted to reach out and knock on Zoe's forehead, realizing the traces on her body, and then dismissing her thoughts. She said in a bad mood, "Yes, now, can you go out first?"

"Oh, women are really unreliable."

Zoe's beautiful eyes flashed in a tone of being abandoned by the bearer, and suddenly reached out his hand.

The housekeeper had been prepared for a long time. Zoe tried to pull the quilt off her body but failed. She entangled and frolicked a few times. Seeing that Alice seemed to be angry and turned into anger, she gave up and exited the bedroom with Isabel.

The body remained in the quilt and waited for a while, confirming that the two guys would not break in again. The housekeeper got out of the bed and quickly locked the bedroom door, finally relieved.

Turning to want to go to the bathroom, because I relaxed from the alertness just now, my body suddenly softened, and my steps staggered.

Entering the bathroom, turning on the faucet to put hot water in, hesitated, then went to the washstand and looked in the mirror.

Then he couldn't help avoiding.

Bastard!

Can't help but reflect the situation last night in my mind.

Some guy said he wanted her to beg for mercy.

how is this possible!

Then, then, then I couldn't help begging for mercy.

result.

The loser must be punished.

...

Just remember to bite him badly in the end.

but.

like.

Well, at least, it must have used the greatest strength available at the time.

An hour later, after taking a shower and cleaning up all traces, "fully armed" went downstairs, stared at Zoe, who was staring at the silk scarf on his neck, sat down in the dining room and started eating breakfast.

It took a moment to realize something.

After taking a look at the ‘rich’ food on the table, he glared at the two women who were sitting next to them, staying still.

Two guys.

Obviously intentional.

Prepared so much food.

However, I am really hungry.

Isabel held her chin while watching the housekeeper eat. After a while, she suddenly asked, "Ellie, how big is it?"

Glancing at the appearance of Isabel putting her breast on the dining table, she said in a desperate manner: "Not as big as you."

Isabel stood up with a smile, and then a little bit depressed, thinking of something, and curiously said: "You, how did you seduce the boss?"

how?

Alice paused when she was eating, thinking about it.

It seems that there is no clue.

I stared at someone in a daze last night because I was curious about him.

However, this seems not to seduce it.

It's just that she did have a guilty conscience at the time and didn't know some details.

or.

This is the sudden interest of some guy.

She had expected this day early, and she did not mean to refuse.

just.

How did it happen, but I don't remember.

He recalled carefully again, faintly, at a certain moment in the living room last night, he saw that his eyes were a little wrong.

What is wrong?

can not say it clearly.

In the end, it can only be regarded as a man's pleasure.

If you don't understand, just stop thinking about it.

After having breakfast, it was already more than nine o'clock in the morning.

I had something to talk to him when I returned to Los Angeles this time.

Regarding the idea of ​​embedding the instant messaging software developed by a team of Eaglet into the Amazon online store as a communication tool.

I talked to Jeff Bezos and others in advance. Bezos believes that doing so may significantly increase the labor service cost of the online mall because of the need to hire a large number of service personnel. Although there is no objection, and I think it is necessary to do so, the current operating conditions of Eaglet are already at full capacity. Adding another team will increase the burden on all aspects.

Moreover, the instant messaging software named ICQ by Simon himself is said to have a far more long-term layout in the description of a guy than as an interactive tool for an online shopping mall.

but.

Now, I decided to tell him these things via email.

Since she didn't plan to stay anymore and had breakfast, the housekeeper hurriedly flew to Houston, Texas.

This is a journey of digging people.

Eaglet’s demand for high-end computer talents has been increasing. For this reason, the company has been lobbying the California government to increase the visa quota for overseas high-level technical talents.

Amazon.com is currently developing a new recommendation system to recommend books that may be of interest to users browsing the mall.

Because of the emergence of the Internet industry, there are not many professional technical talents, who can only be targeted based on their corresponding capabilities.

In addition to basic programming, the recommended system in the plan also requires some developers to have strong mathematical calculation capabilities.

After several searches, Alice found that NASA has a lot of similar talents. The operation of the space shuttle, the calculation of satellite orbits, and the degree of professionalism are only higher than those of Amazon’s recommendation system. Therefore, they directly dig from NASA. Human thoughts.

During this period of contact, some people responded because of the generous salary of Igrett. This time the housekeeper personally flew to the Johnson Space Center in Houston for an interview, and then will fly to Washington again.

As Easter is approaching, many college and high school students in North America have started their annual spring break, and the Easter time has started.

On April 10, the week before Easter, two new films were released in North American theaters, namely Columbia Pictures’ horror film "Blood Night Demon" and Fox Pictures’ 2D animation film "The Last Rainforest" .

"Blood Night Demon" is another adaptation of Stephen King's novel. It tells the story of a half-human, half-cat sleepwalker killing a man. The opening screen of the film is 1864 yuan.

"The Last Rainforest" opened with 1401 screens, which can be regarded as a trial for Fox in the field of animation film.

In the week from April 10th to April 16th, the 7-day box office of "Blood Night Demon" was finally $12.4 million, which won the box office average for a week. The start of the film is not high or low, and the details can only be seen in the follow-up. The box office curve trend.

"The Last Rainforest" failed to evoke the response that Fox wanted. With 1401 screens, the box office for the first seven days was only $5.14 million. Taking advantage of the Easter family atmosphere, the best box office potential is probably only the total of $20 million in North America. box office.

However, the production cost of this animated film is also 20 million US dollars.

Fox can only expect the follow-up channels to make money and earn back the cost.

Easter this year is April 19, Simon and Janet set off for Australia on April 16.

At the same time, "Teenage Ninja Turtles 2" under Daenerys Entertainment's was also released on April 17, with a screen size of 2,976 yuan.

The success of the first "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" boiled down to the wide popularity of this animation IP and the curiosity of the audience.

However, the reality of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is not too pleasing.

After repeated deliberations by the production and distribution teams, the market positioning of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2 has been targeted at young audiences from the very beginning. Therefore, it focuses on exciting action designs and exciting adventure elements. MTV and other youth-oriented media platforms have also become " The key to the announcement of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2.

The risk of this kind of adjustment is actually very high, because in the first movie, a large part of the children who bought tickets to enter the venue out of their love of cartoons accounted for a large part.

However, Simon personally approved this adventure.

After all, following the original route, it is very likely that it will only repeat the mistakes of the new line in the original time and space.

New positioning and attempts, even if they are unsuccessful, based on the popularity of the first movie and the popularity of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles IP, at best they will only move towards the same situation as the original time and space.

In addition to "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2", Warner Bros.'s "Man and Ghosts" starring Patrick Swayze starring in "Happy City", the film tells the story of an American doctor practicing medicine in an Indian slum.

Simon had read the information of "Happy City" in advance. "Happy City" was directed by Roland Joffe, who was nominated for two Oscars for Best Director. The film was blocked by the authorities more than once during the filming process in India. Bumpy. However, compared to Roland Joffe's two previous Oscar nominations, "Arabic City" and "Floating War", "Happy City" has a mediocre reputation.

Warner Bros. Pictures also only arranged 811 screens for the film.

Simon was in Australia, and relevant data about Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2 was passed to him for the first time.

After the film was released, North American media generally gave the sequel relatively positive reviews even with a public relations component, with a comprehensive score of 7.1. "Variety" magazine's film review article also deliberately praised the breakthrough of "Teenage Ninja Turtles 2" in the plot mode.

As the movie that received the most attention during Easter and was also the most publicized movie, the opening box office of "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2" also met expectations.

In the first three days of the weekend, 2,976 screens, and the final income of 26.13 million US dollars.

Although it failed to achieve the three-day gallery breaking through 10,000, the box office of the first Wednesday of the opening of $26.13 million was enough for all other films in the same period to look up.

"Happy City", which was opened on the same day, had a budget cost of US$27 million, which was almost the same as the US$30 million budget of "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2". The box office in the first weekend was only US$3.99 million.

The Simons arrived in Melbourne on April 17 and didn't set off to return until April 23.

In addition to watching the little guy, this trip to Melbourne, the Johnston family also agreed on another matter, about the wedding of David Johnston and Leslie Whitaker.

Although he was reluctant, Raymond Johnston was relieved at the insistence of his son.

The wedding of the two was finally determined to be in November at the end of the year, and the location was naturally Melbourne.

Back in the United States, the box office of "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2" was officially released.

In seven days, the box office of this popular animated film adaptation finally reached 37.38 million US dollars.

It was a very eye-catching start, which exceeded the box office of 32.16 million in the first week of the first film by 5 million dollars.

For Simon, this data also broke the sequel box office slump that neither the original time-space new line nor Paramount could break through.

Therefore, although as Easter passes, Daenerys Entertainment’s distribution department predicts that the film’s box office drop may reach 40% in the next week based on the box office on April 24, which is far less than the 17% drop in the first week. Simon There is still no dissatisfaction with this.

At the start of 37.38 million US dollars, even if calculated on the basis of a 40% decline in the following week, the total box office in North America is still expected to exceed the 100 million US dollars mark.

Compared with the US$30 million production budget and the US$15 million investment in publicity, Daenerys Entertainment can start to achieve profitability only at the box office in North America.

Both the word-of-mouth and box office in North America have reached expectations, and the box office in overseas markets will certainly rise.

However, after Easter, the most noticeable thing is that Cersei Capital’s Apollo Management Company successfully won the parent company of Victoria’s Secret at a price of $2.45 billion in competition with KKR and Blackstone. LTD.

Beginning in February, this acquisition that had been entangled for more than two months was finally settled.

In the final game, KKR’s offer was $100 million higher than Cersei’s acquisition team, reaching $2.55 billion.

However, compared to Cersei Capital’s one-time full payment, KKR provides a three-year cash and bond portfolio payment model. Moreover, in terms of corporate management rights, KKR's requirements are more stringent than Cersei Capital. Not only does it disagree with the request of the LTD founder Leslie Wexner family to retain some shares, but also requires the other party to immediately after the completion of the acquisition. Resign.

After Blackstone tried to cooperate with KKR and Cersei Capital to no avail, it also made a non-disclosure offer to LTD.

According to the news that was subsequently revealed, the total quotation of this proposal was only US$2.4 billion, which was naturally eliminated.

Finally, the LTD board of directors passed a vote and finally decided to accept Cersei Capital's plan.
