Hollywood New Century

After returning to Los Angeles from Park City, Simon and Ivanka stayed at the seaside villa in Malibu.

Compared with Beverly Hills, the seclusion of Malibu can make Simon more relaxed. After all, only about 12,000 residents of Malibu now live here.

And the villas on the beach in Malibu are impeccable in terms of privacy and comfort.

In the viewing room, Simon and Ivanka were admiring the endless Pacific Ocean, and by the way, they also talked about the current real estate project.

"The three private holiday islands have received a lot of guests, and they seem to be good. The facilities on the islands are also continuing to improve. Your Dora Golf International Resort in Miami seems to be renovated. Don't you plan to visit? "Ivanka said.

"It's enough to have someone special to deal with it. Now the Wells Fargo Center Stadium, home of the Miami Dolphins, is being renovated. It is estimated that it will be completed in the second half of the year. I guess I will stay there for a while." As for the Dora Golf International Resort, It's also a business, and you don't need to watch it yourself.

"Well, in New York, the **** Center Gymnasium and Xinghai Building are also about to be completed, you don't seem to be paying too much attention!" Ivanka reminded again.

"I know this, the Xinghai Building is currently being renovated, and the **** Center Gymnasium is expected to be later, but the team can move from New Jersey next season!" Although Simon has a lot of things to do, he still pays attention to such major events.

Ivanka nodded. It is good to do business with Simon. This time he invested some funds and shorted the euro, which was completely right.

"On Wall Street, are there any good investment projects?" Ivanka now finds that it is indeed much faster to get money from finance.

"Hehe, now all the funds are in foreign exchange, there is no money for new projects, but now that the economy is recovering, the investment in high-end real estate is still good, your family is also engaged in this business, you can invest in high-end villas Consider, as for apartment buildings, I have no interest. "The return on investment in the US real estate market is not high, but the interest rate of banks is low now, as long as you can get the government's tax reduction and subsidy policy, it is not bad.

High-end villas and mansions are at least assets with fixed appreciation, and it is enough to make money in this area.

With the shameless character of the Chuanpu family, don't get too close to yourself, some investments can be brought with Ivanka, anyway, they have communicated in depth many times.

"Well, anyway, your mind is now on film entertainment. We don't understand the situation in Hollywood. Some variety shows and talk shows can't be compared with movies." Ivanka actually has some intersections with the entertainment industry. Yes, after all, he has been on many variety shows.

Speaking, Ivanka stood up, dressed in a professional hip skirt, showing her **** figure.

"Send me to the airport, I have to go back to New York," Ivanka is now the vice president of Chuanpu Group, and there are many things.

Simon got up and put his arms around the girl's waist, then patted the girl's butt, and said with a smile, "How many more days to play?"

Ivanka rolled her eyes at Simon, and said a little tangled: "I can't bear it!"

After dropping Ivanka to LAX, Simon drove directly to the company.

In Marvel Studios, there are two blockbuster plans this year, "Thor 2" and "Avengers", especially "The Avengers" with a production budget of up to 200 million US dollars, as the top priority of next summer. .

Meanwhile, the creators of "Thor 2" are also discussing the film project in the offices of Marvel Studios.

With the experience of the first part, the second part is operating according to the plan, and it can be regarded as a familiar road.

In Simon's own office, he was looking at the list of main actors in "The Avengers".

Jeremy Renner, who is well-known for "The Hurt Locker", is also a candidate for Hawkeye, but it seems that the producer and director have not yet been finalized on the role of the Hulk.

Edward Norton certainly wouldn't be a candidate to consider, after all, he doesn't fit in with Marvel's main idea. Joaquin Phoenix and Mark Ruffalo were the final two candidates.

However, Simon doesn't need to worry, anyway, the schedule is next summer, Kevin Feige has been preparing for so long, the choice of actors should be determined soon.

The venue, shooting plan, post-production and publicity plan all have detailed steps, so it shouldn't be disrupted too much.

In the afternoon, Anne Hathaway, who had finished talking at Marvel Studios, came to Simon.

"Let's finish our meal together!" After Anne Hathaway came over, Simon took her directly to the Hollywood restaurant.

"Thor and the Avengers have you in both movies, are there any other projects this year?" Simon and Anne Hathaway are sitting in an upscale Italian-inspired restaurant on the Walk of Fame .

"The dubbing of a romantic film "One Day" and the cartoon "Rio Adventure", this is the plan for this year," Anne Hathaway responded quickly, after all, coupled with the promotion of the film to be released this year ,about there.

"I heard that Warner Bros. is preparing for the film "Batman 3 The Dark Knight Rises", and the Catwoman character has invited you?" Simon asked quietly.

"I don't know the specifics. Even if there is, Susan will refuse. I have a contract with Marvel, so I can't star in movies adapted by DC Marvel," Anne Hathaway said of Susan, that is Her agent, Susan White.

"Do you have any ideas about literary films now?" Simon asked because Marvel's contract required the actor's reputation, and Marvel could not be harmed because of the actor's personal image.

Anne Hathaway nodded, the Marvel series has helped her a lot, the popularity has soared and the corresponding exposure; at the same time, there are some restrictions, fortunately, it is a female character, not very stereotyped.

However, with traffic, Anne Hathaway still hopes to have awards, and don't think about the Marvel series winning awards. Basically, it's all about special effects and sound technology.

"I can also receive a lot of literary and artistic film scripts now, but I always feel that it is a little worse, and I don't know where it is." Anne Hathaway has obsession with Oscar. Although she has been nominated, she cannot win an award. .

"It's not so easy to get an Oscar, take your time," Simon said, looking at Anne Hathaway again, and reminded,

"When you give interviews in the future, you should be more down-to-earth, and don't let the people think that you are far away from them. Now it is the Internet, and it is very important to manage your own personality well."

Anne Hathaway nodded, and Susan seemed to have reminded herself that time seemed to have drifted a bit recently.
