Hollywood Hunter

Simon doesn't plan to take any girls away tonight, and will return to Cape Dumei Manor later, and spend the weekend with his family.

After watching the cat fight for a while, Simon smiled and changed the subject, and said to Yasmin and Najia next to him: "About setting up a charity fund, I think about it recently. Remember, don’t touch politics, you can’t afford it; environmental protection. It’s easy to be thankless, and don’t toss about it; medical care is difficult to produce concrete results, so you have to skip it. Therefore, it is best to focus on education, subsidize poor children, and donate some teaching buildings. Tangible results. Also, take this matter seriously as a long-term career, don’t think about speculation, and don’t have to deliberately promote it. You will find the benefits over time."

Yasmin Gehry posted and acted like a baby: "You are so domineering, Simon, that you want us to consider, but everything has been decided."

Simon stroked the slender waist of the waist which is so beloved, and took the initiative to talk about a problem that the two women are more concerned about: "As for the funds, I will give you 1 million US dollars first, and then add it when it is done. Up."

If Naja Allman on the other side pointed out something: "Simon, will it always be there after it is done?"

Of course Simon understood the meaning of leg sculpting.

The original agreement was only one year old. Because of the turmoil some time ago, the two women who were exposed by the media have been labelled as lovers of Westeros and it is impossible to get rid of them in a short time. However, both Simon and the waist and legs know that this relationship cannot be maintained for long.

Once they leave Simon in the future, men seem to have no reason to continue to support their charity fund.

However, facing Najia’s question, Simon nodded without hesitation and said: “Of course, as long as you do this thing seriously, no matter what the future is, you can get financial support from the Westeros system. "

The general public’s first impression of charity is often tax avoidance, but in fact, the highest state of charity should be to exert a subtle influence on the entire society through its own capital strength.

This is actually a form of power.

The reason why the Rockefeller family can maintain its glory for six generations is largely due to the potential influence of the Rockefeller Foundation on all aspects of the world.

For all considerations, the Westeros system will continue to increase its investment in charity. However, if you want to achieve subtle effects, the best charity model should also be to break into pieces, unknowingly penetrate all aspects of the world through countless types of foundations.

Simon plans to set up a charity fund mainly for the education field, which is a chess piece laid out in accordance with this plan.

As long as they operate properly, the two women can obtain corresponding social reputation from this charity fund, but in the final analysis, such a charity fund is still part of the Westeros system's layout in the philanthropic field.

Simon has even identified the first charity project for the two women’s fund to fund the renovation of primary and secondary schools in some impoverished communities in Wisconsin. The charity project, which is planned to be launched in the second half of the year, will put the merits as much as possible. The Wisconsin Republican Senator candidate Robert Holtwell, supported by the Westeros system, was used to win more votes for the bottom-of-society basics of Holtwell’s opponent Craig Ames.

Therefore, even if the waist and legs are no longer Simon's lover in the future, as long as the charity fund operated by the two women is still in the interest of the Westeros system, they can continue to receive financial support.

Simon did not respond to his teasing. Cindy was a little disappointed, but insisted not to walk away. He also bitterly guessed that Naga Allman had just said something bad about herself in the ear of the man. At this time, listening to Simon and the two women's dialogue about the charity fund, some envy and jealousy were unavoidable.

Some guy is supporting his two big vases in all directions.

Think about it some time ago, when the scandal was exposed, Westeros not only did not deny publicly, but directly used a private jet to help the two women stay away from the whirlpool of right and wrong. During this period, under the operation of the Westeros system’s media public relations, the two girls Neither reputation nor career has been negatively affected too much.

Such a strong, wealthy and daring man, even if he can only be his lover, will definitely attract too many women.

Cindy thought so sourly, and inexplicably insisted on sitting on the sofa next to him, turning a blind eye to the provocation of the two big goblins beside Simon.

Fortunately, it didn't take long before Simon got up and left the party, and didn't bring the two women with him, which gave Cindy, who also failed, found some comfort.

The weekend passed and the time came to June 13.

on Monday.

Daenerys Entertainment officially announced the listing date of the company's stock on this day, which was set on July 1. At the same time, Daenerys Entertainment and the two major underwriters Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs also opened a global roadshow before the stock listing.

It stands to reason that since the official submission of the prospectus, the company applying for an IPO must enter a quiet period, and the company must not release any information that intentionally or unintentionally stimulates the stock price.

Daenerys Entertainment has strictly complied with the silent clauses related to the silent period in recent months.

However, whether it is the online social game "Happy Farm" that has continued to be popular during this time, or the group of Backstreet Boys under Daenerys Records that has quickly become popular, or even Daenerys Entertainment’s "Four Weddings and Blockbuster movies such as A Funeral, Detective Plane, Stargate, etc., all show the prosperity of Daenerys Entertainment at all times.

Therefore, many industry media and investment bank analysts commented during this period, believing that Daenerys Entertainment Group's first day of listing is likely to directly create the peak of the market value of a US listed company.

On the other hand, at the beginning of the new week, there was news in the traditional media circles that Simon Westero had personally set price limits on some of the assets under the Hearst Group’s intention to sell. The Westeros system does not prevent other companies from acquiring Hearst Group assets, but it cannot exceed the maximum transaction price set by Simon, otherwise it will be an enemy of the Westeros system.

Then a rough price list also circulated.

The total value of 13 newspapers and magazines that the Hearst family intends to sell will not be less than US$500 million if the total value is not less than US$500 million before all the turmoil. However, in the case that the assets themselves have depreciated sharply recently, Westeros Once again, the price was lowered by a large amount, and the limit price given was only 30% of the actual value. The total transaction price could reach 150 million US dollars, which is simply a direct bargaining on the ankle.

The assets that the Hearst family intends to cash out are the ones most seriously affected by the turmoil. They have already made good expectations of selling them at a low price, even if they are discounted to their original value, because of the extreme demand for funds. Barely acceptable.

Simon's statement directly caused the Hearst family to give up the plan to sell cash.

Selling at a discount of 30%, the assets of 500 million US dollars became 150 million, which is too painful anyway.

Simon's sniper action also made the Hirst family fully realize that the fundamental crux of wanting to get rid of the predicament at this time was still with a young man, so he had to take the initiative to contact again. It's just that after the last offer, Simon didn't mean to let go.

Busy and turbulent, another box office week of the summer file has passed.

Previously, on June 10th, there were two new films released in North American theaters, namely Disney’s barracks comedy "Heaven Soldiers" and Paramount's children's comedy "The Little Ghost Moves."

The former is directed by Penny Marshall, the former director of "Flying the Future". It tells the story of an advertising planner who entered the military camp to teach English to soldiers after losing his job. The style of the film is similar to Disney's "Good Morning Vietnam", which hit the box office a few years ago. Paramount's "The Little Ghost Moves" is also a comedy that tirelessly follows the trend of "Home Alone".

June 10 to June 16.

Without any suspense, "Batman: The Dark Knight Rises" won the single-week box office chart. The next week after its release, the film fell by 49% as expected, and continued to earn $65.09 million.

Within two weeks of its opening, the North American box office of this DC superhero blockbuster has quickly reached 192.72 million U.S. dollars, leaving only a gap of 7.28 million U.S. dollars from the 200 million U.S. dollar box office mark. It is expected to be on the first day of the third week. Can break through the 200 million threshold.

The film's overseas box office also began to give feedback.

Under the premise that some important overseas ticket stores such as Japan, France, and Germany have generally not been released, the cumulative box office receipt of "Batman: The Dark Knight Rise" has been opened in 27 overseas countries and regions in two weeks is roughly estimated to reach 2.7 One hundred million U.S. dollars.

Half a month after its release, the global box office of "Batman: The Dark Knight Rises" has reached US$470 million.

Moreover, as the DC Cinematic Universe series has become more successful, the share of accounts signed between Warner Bros. and domestic and foreign theaters during the release stage has also become higher. Only in the United States, the estimated share ratio of "Batman: The Dark Knight Rise" will reach about 65%, which is 10% higher than the average Hollywood movie theater line. Although the situation in various overseas countries and regions is different, the approximate share ratio has also increased by one. Big cut.

Therefore, although the total investment in the production and distribution of "Batman: The Dark Knight Rise" reached an astonishing US$215 million, the box office of US$470 million in two weeks has allowed the two producers to recover all their production and advertising investment. And began to generate profit.

In recent years, as the Eastern European and Asian film markets have generally strengthened their opening up, according to the current box office momentum, whether it is the production of Fang Daenerys and Time Warner, or the media who are always concerned about the film’s box office, they are generally optimistic that "Batman: "The Dark Knight Rises" is expected to break the important threshold of $1 billion at the global box office.

Prior to this, the box office champion of North American film history was "Jurassic Park" with a global box office of 980 million US dollars. The runner-up was "Batman: Hour of War" with a global box office of 960 million US dollars, which is only one step away from the global box office threshold of 1 billion US dollars. , But never successfully crossed.

Although it is also a film owned by Daenerys Entertainment, when "Jurassic Park" surpassed "Batman: Hour of War" to become the box office champion of North American film history, it still made the large-scale DC movie universe fans quite dissatisfied, but for this reason Can invisibly raise the box office of "Batman: The Dark Knight Rises".

Counting the expansion of overseas markets and the natural growth of the film industry, "Batman: The Rise of the Dark Knight", which has already broken through a series of box office records, has hit the US$1 billion box office globally. It is really only a matter of time.

Daenerys Entertainment’s full-scale release strategy for super blockbusters has largely freed up enough room for other Hollywood films to play in the week following the release. This is also how Disney and Paramount dared to launch on June 10. The confidence to release two important new films daily.

However, "Batman: The Dark Knight Rises" quickly gave up the market with a drop of nearly half the following week, while the box office performances of "Night Soldiers" and "Little Ghosts" were very disappointing.

Therefore, from June 10th to June 16th, the box office runner-up was won by the fourth week of "Life and Death", which starred Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock. The weekly box office fell by 25%, and it received 9.69 million US dollars.

Four weeks after the release, the cumulative box office of "Life and Death" broke the US$80 million threshold, reaching US$80.18 million.

Obviously, the runner-up box office is only 9.69 million U.S. dollars. This week, except for "Batman: The Dark Knight Rises", there is no other movie with a single-week box office that exceeded 10 million U.S. dollars.

However, for "Speed ​​of Life", it has successfully passed the hurdle of being crushed by "Batman: The Dark Knight Rise", and the cumulative box office has exceeded 80 million US dollars. Then it will not only be able to smoothly advance to the 100 million yuan club, but also Hope to go further.

Disney's "Mobilization of the Heavenly Soldiers" finally held the third place, and immediately after "Life and Death", the box office in the first week of its opening was $8.2 million. However, with the film's first week of only US$4,654, it is difficult to escape the fate of the surrounding rush.

The fourth place was also won as the new film "The Little Ghost". The box office of the first week of the film was 7.12 million US dollars, and the screen size was 1955. After the first week, the average was 3641 US dollars, which is even worse than "Heaven Soldiers". some.

"Stargate" directed by Michael Bay ranked fifth on the list. This week's box office fell 35%, and it received another 6.02 million U.S. dollars. The cumulative box office is 96.56 million U.S. dollars, which is about to break 100 million.

In addition to the top five, the most bleak is Mel Gibson's "Gambler Mavali".

Compared with the same period, "Life and Death" has maintained a strong box office of 2,869 screens for four weeks. Because the opening results were not as good as expected, the number of screens in the third week of "The Gambler Mahuali" began to shrink, starting on June 10. In the fourth week, the number of screens was reduced from 1969 yuan in the third week to 1,326 yuan. This also led to the film’s drop in box office after being crushed by "Batman: The Dark Knight Rises" last week and the box office plummeted this week. 53%, only a pitiful $3.19 million left at the box office in a single week.

As a result, in a new box office week that began on June 17, most mainstream theaters in North America withdrew the release of "Gambling Mavali", the film was basically down, and the North American box office was fixed at a low of $46.99 million.

Perhaps in the second or third rounds of screenings in remote areas, they can continue to win a box office of one or two million dollars, but the overall situation is not helpful. This super blockbuster with a total investment of 105 million US dollars completely caused Time Warner to lose tears.

Relying on the huge profits brought by "Batman: The Dark Knight Rise", Time Warner can easily fill the huge shortfall caused by "The Gambler Mavali", but the failure of such a blockbuster project directly triggered the management of Time Warner turmoil.
