Hollywood New Century

Simon Parker came to New York, of course, not because he was curious about Ladygaga, but to find an investment manager for his own funds to act as his investment adviser.

Nancy Davis, 32 years old, graduated from college in 1998 and started as a trader, and became the head of Goldman Sachs' traditional hedge fund. The options trading range includes commodities, credit, foreign exchange, interest rates, mortgage loans, dividends, stocks and other fields.

There are really not many female hedge fund managers on Wall Street, and this blond woman does stand out a bit.

"Ms. Davis, may I ask why you left Goldman Sachs? After all, at your current age, it is very possible to go further in the future!" Simon Parker was recommended by CAA, and he has the ability, and It belongs to the winning type.

"Mr. Parker, the rights of men and women on Wall Street are more serious than in Hollywood. I have also been in charge of film funds before, and I know a little bit about it. I am also doing asset management work now, and I can work for clients in all aspects. "Nancy Davis said and smiled again:

"After this, Mr. Parker, you will have a team dedicated to managing your funds, lawyers, accountants, tax researchers, etc., and you don't have to go to a hiring firm all the time, right!"

"Hehe, I set up an investment fund called the Nine-headed Bird Fund, and you can help me manage it in the future," Simon has already checked her information clearly, and now she is basically the one who chooses to meet.

"Nine Bird Fund, this name seems to have a Hydra in Marvel Entertainment, right?" Of course Nancy Davis knew that Simon Pike had Xinghai Pictures just acquired Marvel Entertainment.

"It doesn't matter," Simon recalled and explained, "The nine-headed bird is a kind of divine bird worshipped by people in southern China in ancient times. It is smart and very alert!"

"That's it!" Nancy Davis nodded, the divine bird in China.

"Call me Simon in the future, and I'll call you Nancy, too. I'll put the $200 million into the Nine-Headed Bird Fund and give it to you to take care of it," Simon leaned back on his chair.

"I'm very interested in the tech industry right now, so I'm going into tech VC as well!"

Nancy Davis nodded. The first shot was 200 million US dollars. This young tycoon had too much courage, and the industry he entered was not real estate such as real estate, but directly venture capital in the technology industry!

"Simon, YouTube's investment is absolutely amazing!" Nancy Davis was fiery at the thought of Google's nearly $2 billion cash acquisition of YouTube last month.

Simon smiled, Google, Microsoft, Amazon and Apple are the giants, but that Facebook is not bad.

However, Simon is ready to block Facebook's road. Will the photo wall application Instagram and mobile messaging application WhatsApp be acquired at a high price?

"There's a document on the table about Twitter, a new social networking company in San Francisco this year, and the Nine-Headed Bird Fund can make angel investments," Simon said, looking out the window, too kind, shining down on them like an angel.

Nancy Davis looked at the document, which was not much, a start-up that had just been established.

Whether it is a seed round or an angel round, it is high risk, but if it develops well in the future, it will be a high reward!

"I'll deal with it as soon as possible," said Nancy Davis, familiar with this venture.

"By the way, Apple is producing a new type of smartphone. I have great confidence in their company. I believe their stock price will rise sharply next year." Although Apple's stock price is also rising now, how can there be a mobile phone coming out next year? Caused a sensation!

Nancy Davis nodded. In fact, her biggest role is to be a housekeeper, and Simon Parker is still in charge of the use of funds, but the necessary reminders and manipulations are implemented by her own team.

After the big rise, the global financial crisis caused by the subprime mortgage crisis will fall sharply again. This is really the best era!

"Simon, do you have no idea about the real estate industry? You can make a small amount of investment, and the portfolio investment has the least risk," Nancy Davis reminded. After all, as his housekeeper, recommending a diversified investment portfolio is for his good!

"I know, but now is not the time. Next year, the technology industry is the main focus. I will have a good chat with you about this." Simon is not interested in real estate. It is impossible. Now Real estate is too hot, don't touch it!

The crisis that started in October next year, Simon couldn't help shaking every time he thought about it! How much money is waiting to be earned by yourself, the leverage mechanism is short, so exciting!

While Simon was laying out his future in New York, he was hosting a Hollywood superstar, Tom Hanks, in Ninaia Kobson's office in Xinghai Films as far away as Los Angeles.

"Nina, I'm here to show you a script this time!" Tom Hanks gave his signature simple and honest smile.

"Really? Tom, will no one invest in your script," Nina Jacobson asked with a puzzled smile.

"It's not about my script, it's about the film adaptation rights of a stage play that my production company bought a few years ago, and now the script has been written by someone, we've budgeted, and the heroine is still Meryl S. Tripp, project financing is a bit difficult," Tom Hanks continued, explaining,

"It's what Meryl Streep suggested to us. Xinghai Pictures has a lot of experience in such films with many female roles, so I came here on purpose!"

"It turns out that it seems that Xinghai Pictures has indeed produced a few female-themed movies!" Nina Jacobson smiled, and now the company is no longer developing "26 Dresses" and "Fake Marriage". Movie!

"Indeed, both Juno and Little Miss Sunshine are artistically good, and The Devil Wears Prada is a commercial success, grossing $330 million worldwide!" Tom Hanke Si also chatted with Nina.

Finally, after watching Tom Hanks leave Xinghai Films, Nina Jacobson also picked up the script and movie plan just sent by Tom Hanks.

"Mamma Mia! "The stage play of the same name is adapted from the screenplay by Playtone Films, a joint venture between Tom Hanks and Gary Goldzman, and Judy Kramer's Littlestar.

Judy Kramer is the star of the stage play Mamma Mia! , her Littlestar company is Mamma Mia! "The producer of the stage play, the film adaptation rights were sold to Playtone production company, and they also wanted to put this stage play on the big screen!
