The coming and going is indeed the biggest characteristic of Hollywood. Even the seemingly long-standing major studios such as Warner and Paramount, after a hundred years, what remains is actually only the label, and the owner has long since changed how many.And starting in the 80s, this coming and going has become more frequent and will continue for many years to come.
Since it is an inevitable industry trend, what Simon has to do is to try to make this coming and going in the interests of Daenerys Entertainment, or, it can also be said, to ensure that this coming and going is always going on.
Turbulence means chaos, which means that the development cannot be stable.
Like this time.
In the coming 1998, when the Asian financial turmoil hit Japan, Sony was the weakest moment when it was easiest to let go of Colombia. At this time, Westinghouse had the greatest opportunity to buy back this big film company.Once missed, it is difficult to say whether Sony will take root in Hollywood as it once did.
This is not what Simon wants to see.
Furthermore, Westinghouse Electric is also the target of Simon.
Whether it is Westinghouse itself, or Columbia Pictures, which Simon recommended to buy, it will be a mess in the future.
It sucks. It sucks.
Coupled with the memories of the past, no accident, Michael Jordan completed the mission of "General Electric Commercial Espionage" that was later satirized, sold all the core businesses of Westinghouse Electric, and tossed a large number of media assets, but it turned out that he couldn't get it going , can only come and go again.
Then there was turmoil and chaos.
Others are in turmoil and chaos, and the stable Daenerys entertainment is bound to become stronger and stronger.
After listening to Simon's explanation, Michael Ovitz just smiled and said, "It seems that I should also find time to learn some Chinese."
"Nice idea."
As Simon spoke, he raised his glass to Ovitz, and turned to look at Amy Adams and Jessica Chastain, who had been probing their heads not far away for a long time.
Seeing Simon looking at them, the two women hurried over.
Michael Ovitz walks away wisely.
When the two women came forward, Simon smiled and said, "Seeing that you have been staring at me for a long time, what's the matter?"
The two women were immediately a little embarrassed. They just kept looking for opportunities but couldn't find them. The main reason was that they felt a little guilty in front of those big guys, and they were even more guilty of Simon Westeros, so they didn't dare to rush forward.
Now, feeling the warm smile of the man in front of her, she couldn't help but relax, Jessica said first: "Mr. Westeros, we just want to thank you."
"Ok?"
"We were chosen to participate in "Ghost Story" in the first place."
"This is not necessary."
As Simon said, he looked at Jessica in front of him, and suddenly his heart moved, thinking of "Public Enemy" that he had just talked about with Bruckheimer and the others.
The image of the young woman in the setting, Jessica in front of me, seems to be perfect.
You know, most of Jessica Chastain's screen images were relatively strong and independent leaders or strong women, such as the CIA agent in "Hunting Book", such as the spaceship commander in "The Martian" .And what Simon needs this time is a strong woman who can confront Harrison Ford emotionally, not the vase Bond girl of the 007 series.
Jessica noticed Simon's sudden sizing, and her heart beat inexplicably accelerated. She shrank her neck, then quickly and quietly relaxed, trying to meet the man's gaze: "Mr. Westeros, what's the problem?"
"Suddenly thought of something," Simon said as he regained his senses, and then he admired the two women tonight from a man's point of view, and said with a smile: "Also, you are very beautiful tonight."
The two in front of him are exactly the kind of Hollywood actresses that Simon prefers.
The basis of 70 points to 80 points, with some careful decoration, can reach more than 80 points that are pleasing to the eye.
Facing Simon's sudden compliment, Jessica pretended to be shy, and Amy also seemed a little embarrassed, her eyes subconsciously looked around.
pity.
too many people.
Otherwise, now seems to be a good opportunity to step forward, um, that, according to Lina.
Simon didn't play step by step with the two girls, mainly because he didn't have so much time. He said directly: "I'm going to fly to Mexico for the weekend later. A manor has just been repaired at the southernmost tip of Baja California. Do you want to go together?"
Amy opened her mouth slightly.
Without hesitation, Jessica quietly took Amy's arm to prevent her from saying anything stupid, and said directly, "Okay."
"Then let's go."
Amy finally reacted, her eyes widened: "Simon, now... now?"
Simon raised his wrist and looked at his watch: "It's [-] o'clock in the evening. We take off from Los Angeles Airport. We only need one and a half hours to get there."
Jessica also remembered a question: "Simon, do you need a visa to go to Mexico?"
Simon thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "I'm not sure, but it's night and it's dark, so it's easy for me to take you there."
"..."
The two women didn't know how to take this joke, but they quickly realized that Simon Westeros was in front of them. Is it a matter to take two people through customs temporarily?
Seeing the two girls wake up, Simon smiled and said, "That's it, I'll say goodbye to Mike first."
Amy was still a little cautious, and called to Simon: "Then, we must always bring our passports?"
Simon is also very talkative: "Yes, where do you live, we will drop by later to get it."
Amy shook her head and said, "Not with us, because I might go overseas to promote "Ghost Story" next time, and our assistant took it temporarily to apply for some documents."
"Then let her be sent to the international airport, and you make a call yourself," Simon said, pointing to the outside of the villa: "Then wait for me in the front yard."
Seeing Simon walk away, Amy and Jessica took out their mobile phones from their bags as they walked out, and dialed Lena's number.
About half an hour later.
At an entrance of Los Angeles International Airport, I noticed that one of the two black cars had pushed down the window. Jessica waved to herself, and Lena Kane, who had rushed to this side in a hurry, ran over.
When she came to the car, Lina took out two passports and handed them over, excitedly saying, "You guys are amazing..."
Speaking of which, the round-faced assistant had already noticed the man sitting between the two women in the car, and she was immediately embarrassed. She thought that a certain big guy was in the car in front, but fortunately, the girl had a thick skin, and soon revealed that she thought it was the most decent man. Smiling, he lowered his body and waved to the inside of the carriage: "Good evening, Mr. Westeros."
Simon didn't care at first, but when he found that the girl outside the window was somewhat similar to the Selena Gomez in his memory, he became a little interested and asked with a smile, "Do you have Latin blood?"
"Yeah," Lina nodded quickly, wishing she could have a few more words with this boss, after handing over the two passports to Jessica, she raised a few slender fingers in a mess: "Probably, One in eight, my grandmother was from Mexico."
"Oh, we are going to your grandmother's hometown for the weekend, do you want to go and have a look together?"
"what……"
This came out of nowhere, and Lena Kane, who was completely unprepared, didn't know how to answer.
Then I saw the man reach out and open the car door: "Come on."
"I, that..." Lena said, and squeezed into the car neatly, causing Jessica and Amy to roll their eyes, but she said again: "I didn't bring a passport?"
Simon smiled and said: "This is just right, I will take you to smuggle."
The bodyguard in the front row had already got out of the car at some point, and signaled to Lina to move further in. Then Lina got up, passed Jessica, and her petite body in her early 1.6 meters sat directly on the man's lap, still very embarrassed. Appearance: "Sorry, Mr. Westeros, it's too crowded."
Jessica: "..."
Amy: "..."
It seems that the round-faced assistant's encouragement to them before the reception is really not watery at all.
clothes!
Simon felt that a small hand that was initially on his thigh fumbled all the way and finally supported his shoulder, and he was also a little speechless.
I thought I caught a silly face by accident, but when I got it, I realized it was a little wild cat.
Still very wild.
The door of the car was closed again, and it was started again. It took only a moment to come to a runway in the airport, where a Boeing 767 was already waiting.
The three women got out of the car and followed behind Simon, looking at the private jet in front of them against the airport lights, and suddenly felt a little unreal.
When he came to the gangway, Simon pointed to the two female guards next to him and said, "I'll wait for you up there."
As he spoke, he went up the gangway first.
One of the female guards stepped forward, stopped the three women slightly, and said politely: "Three ladies, if there are any inappropriate items on your body, please let us store them for you first."
The three women saw that another female guard came forward with a metal detector in her hand, and knew it was a security check, so they cooperated and let the other party do what they wanted. Amy raised her arm to cooperate with the detection while shaking the bag in her right hand: "Does the key count?"
"The key doesn't matter."
The female guard who just spoke said, and said sorry again, took the bags of the three girls and began to search carefully.
A few minutes later, after Jessica was confiscated with a two-inch long knife that was used as a key chain pendant, the three women finally boarded the plane and sat down in a living room in the middle cabin under the guidance of the maid. Seeing the figure of the man, Lina took the initiative to ask, but the waitress didn't answer, she just reminded them to fasten their seat belts, indicating that the plane was about to take off.
When the waitress left temporarily, the three women who were restrained in the seat by the seat belt looked at each other, and Lina laughed first, her round face was flushed, she was obviously still excited, and she muttered: "It's all right now, We are tied here, Jesse's self-defense weapons are also taken away, we can't resist what Simon wants to do."
Jessica was speechless.
She was so embarrassing just now, her small knife was only used occasionally to unpack and pick nails on weekdays. It was less than two inches long and not as long as her little finger, but the female guard seemed to have found a handful of Damascus. It also seems to be looking at her with a look of terrorists, is it that serious?
Amy saw that her round-faced assistant spoke pitifully, but her expression was obviously looking forward to it. Thinking about the brief situation in the car just now, Amy could only roll her eyes.
This is a real fairy.
Can't compare.
I even started to resent myself a little bit, what kind of passport do I have to take, is it not good to smuggle?
As a result, this goblin was recruited.
Amy originally thought that the words her assistant told her before the reception were just to encourage them.Just like many people always like to tell others some great truths that they can't do at all.
However, she is very determined now, and this one will definitely do it later, and even steal her and Jessica's limelight.
What is this?
Chapter 1187 Meow
Near ten o'clock in the evening, the Boeing 767 landed in San Lucas, the southernmost tip of Baja California Sur, Mexico.
Amy Adams, Jessica Chastain and their round-faced assistant Lena Kane didn't see Simon again until they got off the plane. Amy and Jessica were fine, but Lena Kane was quite Out of resentment, on my first private jet trip, I originally wanted to show off, but in the end, I had nowhere to start.
As expected, Lena Kane, who didn't even have any documents, left the airport unimpeded all the way, and was greeted by a group of people all the way.
After boarding a black car that came to greet him, there was a huge convoy of five cars outside, and Lena Kane still had the cheek to grab the seat on the man's lap again.
Amy and Jessica are still sitting on both sides, looking at the exotic seaside town more than 1000 kilometers away in a blink of an eye, their eyes are curious and disappointed. The only difference between this place and Los Angeles is that many buildings have tall high fence.
No one needs to be reminded about this, both women understand.
This is Mexico.
In fact, for most ordinary people, as long as you live a peaceful and mediocre life, this country is no different from other places.
However, once it touches on certain aspects, such as becoming a mayor and wanting to make some political achievements to ban drugs or something.Or, young people from so-and-so's family go to the United States to work hard, become famous, and make a fortune, but their parents and brothers are still in China. Then, the cruel world adventure of these people is about to come.
Not to mention other things, just Hollywood, Mexican director Guillermo del Toro has just made some fame in the United States, the old father in his hometown was kidnapped, and finally he was able to pay by borrowing money from his good friend James Cameron ransom.
The convoy left the airport and arrived at its destination in less than 10 minutes.
The same high-walled compound when entering the door.
Amy looked through the car window, and a white wall at least three meters high extended to both sides until it penetrated into the invisible night.
Looking inside the wall, the scenery is obviously different from the outside.
