Hollywood New Century

"The guy who just spoke, Adam Root, was autistic as a child, deaf in his left ear, and his behavior was a little weird, but he was really a genius, very proficient in data analysis," Nancy Davis said. He smiled and said, "You can also see that he doesn't pay attention to his image a little bit. He doesn't even know how to wear a suit if he doesn't go out to meet clients!"

Simon nodded and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, it's just weird, and it's not a big deal. What he just said makes sense, but now that the Nine Head Bird Fund is a start-up, it is difficult to attract investors!"

"When 15% of people default, there will be a collapse, and it is indeed more bizarre to say what he thinks," Nancy Davis has a hard time believing this.

"Look, come on, the mortgage defaults month by month, and the more and more houses the bank takes back for auction, will lead to lower and lower house prices, and people who reinvest with house mortgages will become poorer and poorer. As soon as the bubble bursts, it's a flood," Simon leaned back in his chair and looked at Apple's stock price.

"Currently Apple is $130 per share, and I estimate it will rise to $200. Based on our 3 million shares, how much can the bank lend at most?"

Nancy Davis said with a smile: "Simon, you are the boss of Xinghai Entertainment. In fact, several major banks are willing to lend you money. Of course, if you take out a loan in the name of Xinghai Entertainment, it will definitely be more than a stock mortgage, but that is Use it in your film entertainment business;"

"Putting it into the stock market, our stock is currently worth almost $400 million, and there is a clear uptrend. I would like to borrow $300 million, and there will be no problem!"

"$300 million? That's enough, find a few large commercial banks, pledge the stock to them, and then bet against them on CDS, remember not to find an investment bank, I'm worried they won't be able to pay us back then!" Simon laughed laughed.

Nancy Davis nodded and continued: "Now they all want us to pay monthly premiums, and if the house prices don't fall, we will lose millions of dollars every month!"

"Don't worry, the house price will not fall. The CDOs we bought are all waste paper. This kind of thing is inherently risky." Simon didn't care, and paid monthly premiums, which was normal.

After the signs are not right, the value of CDS will be doubled!

"Well, **** bank, Citibank, HSBC, Wells Fargo, Deutsche Bank, National Bank of Iceland, etc., we have many options, more than 300 million funds, will not cause much water, if the time is really As you said, we could at least triple our investment!” explained Nancy Davis.

Simon nodded and didn't speak, only twice? The highest return of the Paulson Fund was a 590% return.

When Simon heard about the National Bank of Iceland, Deutsche Bank, HSBC and other European banks, he found that the exchange rate of the euro against the US dollar has been rising, and there will be a cliff-like fall next year.

It seems that at the end of the year, it is better to convert the overseas income of the film into US dollars as soon as possible, otherwise I will lose some money.

"The National Bank of Iceland is still very interesting. Iceland has liberalized banking controls, vigorously developed the financial industry, and attracted foreign depositors with high interest rates. The assets of the three major Icelandic banks have reached 120 billion US dollars, while Iceland's GDP is only 19 billion US dollars. The U.S. dollar, the foreign debt exceeds 100 billion euros, and the whole country is completely tied to the financial business," Nancy Davis smiled, also a powerful country.

"A small country with a population of less than 300,000 actually absorbs more than 100 billion US dollars of foreign capital. If the bank goes bankrupt, the country goes bankrupt," Simon shook his head. In Europe and the United States, high welfare comes too easily.

"Nancy, this year, nine-headed birds are looking for guarantee banks mainly in Europe. Large commercial banks such as HSBC, Barclays, Deutsche Bank, Credit Suisse, etc., it is best to directly lend and settle in euros," Simon said. He looked out the window and continued:

"Next year, the guarantee banks will all look for domestic banks, **** banks, Citibank, Bank of America, Wells Fargo and other large commercial banks, and they will ask for dollars next year!"

"Simon, do you think that after a crisis in the United States, the dollar will appreciate and the euro will depreciate?" Nancy Davis was a little surprised.

"Don't forget, the United States is a hegemonic country, and the U.S. dollar is a safe-haven currency. At that time, everyone will buy the U.S. dollar as a safe-haven currency, the euro? That is a risky currency," Simon smiled. Accidents in the United States always divert disasters, especially developing countries and third world countries.

"In short, it would be good for us to reserve more euros this year. The appreciation of the euro is still very good!"

"I know this, in foreign exchange, we have talents in this field," Nancy Davis said, thinking that Simon Pike was ready to invest overseas.

After leaving the Nine Heads Foundation, Simon went to Star Records in the Tribeca neighborhood.

Sonia Roman looked happy and introduced: "Taylor Swift's self-titled album has sold more than 4 million copies and is hitting 5 million!"

"Acquiring Big Machine Records last year was a really good deal," Sonia Roman was in a surprisingly good mood!

"You have also worked hard. The publicity for the past six months has been well done. Taylor Swift has participated in various TV shows, award ceremonies, and the Country Music Association has also awarded awards!" Simon also praised.

"This is what I should do. I used to be an agent. Now I'm in charge of the record company, and then I pay attention to the script of the movie and TV. It's good!" Sonia Roman, after all, has no experience in film production. It is still possible to acquire copyright and promote singers!

"However, we are too late. The best-selling novels in the "New York Times" before, suitable for film adaptations, such as "Nanny Diary" and "Winter's Bone", have caused other production companies to buy the film adaptation rights!" Simon Now I am helpless, either to pick up leaks, other companies are not optimistic about the project, or to always stare at the novels to be published in the future, and stare at the few adaptations of the movie!

"By the way, Stephanie Mayer is about to publish the third novel "Lunar Eclipse" in the "Mouse" series, and she is also thinking about the fourth "Dawn", is our company preparing to develop a movie?" Sony Ya Roman talking about Twilight.

Simon nodded and said: "No surprise, it will start shooting next year. The company is currently carrying out a lot of projects, all of which are pre-preparation. Prepare the script first. As for when the shooting will start, it depends on the next arrangement!"

As for how many years the script will be played, it is up to God.
