Daenerys Entertainment headquarters, today is December 31st, the last day of 1988.

Simon welcomed a special guest in the afternoon, Mr. Stan Lee, the current chairman and publisher of Marvel Comics and creator of superhero characters such as Captain America, Spider-Man, and the Fantastic Four.

Due to work, Stan Lee now lives in New York, and this time he came to Los Angeles for vacation.

In the months since the merger with New World Entertainment, Simon and Stan Lee have met several times, but the two sides have not had the opportunity to discuss Marvel's future development plans.

"Batman" is about to start filming. Stan Lee, who has always been interested in the filming of Marvel superheroes, took advantage of the opportunity of his year-end vacation to visit Simon and discuss this matter by the way.

"Stan, Daenerys Entertainment will definitely develop a Marvel superhero movie, but now is not the right time. We all know that compared to "Superman" and "Batman", such as Batman, Fantastic Four, etc. Marvel superheroes are very difficult to shoot.”

"But we can start with some easier projects, can't we?" When it comes to business, the 66-year-old man is no longer as witty as he usually is, and said solemnly: "Simon, "The Punisher" is not bad, he is no different Yes, no special effects needed, why cancel this project?"

Jennifer brought in a pot of coffee at this time, and Simon didn't stop talking, saying: "Stan, you must have read the script, it is completely a Stallone's "First Blood" style shootout film, completely lost' The Punisher's story."

Stan Lee took the coffee from Jennifer, thanked him, and said, "Simon, the script can be modified."

Simon took a sip of coffee and said, "Then the original project needs to be completely overturned and started from scratch, and, frankly, Stan, I'm not optimistic about the box office prospects of "The Punisher"."

Stan Lee couldn't help shaking his head and said: "I really don't understand what you are thinking, Simon, you now own all the superhero copyrights of Marvel, but you are going to shoot DC's "Batman"."

"I started working on Batman before I won Marvel."

"So, what about Superman and Wonder Woman?"

Simon looked at the old man who was obviously starting to get emotional and said with a smile: "Stan, don't you think that it is a great achievement to hold the copyrights of several heavyweight superheroes of DC on the basis of Marvel. ?"

Stan Lee thought for a while, then laughed, but said, "Okay, Simon, but how long do we have to wait here?"

"Five years," Simon said: "After five years, Daenerys Entertainment will start planning Marvel superhero film and television projects. Before that, I hope to be able to accumulate a certain amount of technology and skills through several DC superheroes. experience."

Simon is now the boss of Marvel, and since he has made up his mind, Stan Lee doesn't bother too much. The two of them continued to chat about some trivial business operations of Marvel Entertainment, and before they knew it, more than an hour passed.

When it was time to get off work, Simon sent Stan Lee out of the office, and Jennifer, who was sitting outside, picked up a prepared invitation and gave it to Simon.

Simon handed the invitation letter to Stan Lee and said, "Stan, this is the invitation letter for Daenerys Entertainment's New Year's Eve reception tonight, starting at seven o'clock in Palisades, if you are interested, you can come over."

Stan Lee took the invitation and said cheerfully, "I will definitely be there on time."

After sending Stan Lee away, Simon glanced at the office outside, which was temporarily occupied by Jennifer.

Susan Landis was fired last Friday, and the two scripts Simon prepared a few days ago for "Rocketman" and "Firebird" have now fallen into the hands of Paramount Pictures.

There is no possibility of misunderstanding in this matter. After picking out the two scripts, Simon just kept them in the office without contacting the copyright holders of the two scripts, and did not tell anyone about it.

Until last Friday, Simon asked Jennifer to make a few phone calls tentatively, and Paramount suddenly took down the two projects that had been nowhere. This is obviously not a coincidence that can be explained.

Susan Landis has been serving as Simon's secretary since Daenerys Entertainment's inception, and has accumulated some friendships. Since the other party did not cause any loss to Daenerys Entertainment, Simon had no interest in taking a small shrimp, and simply dismissed the other party.

However, being reminded by this incident, Simon also began to pay more attention to confidentiality.

Tonight is New Year's Eve, and when Stan Lee leaves, Simon will leave work early and rush to the mansion halfway up the hill in Palisades.

The New Year's Eve reception hosted by Daenerys Entertainment started at seven o'clock in the evening. It was less than five thirty when Simon arrived here. I found Janet and Catherine on the second floor of the villa.

Seeing Simon appear, Janet, who was choosing a dress, sent away the stylist who was helping her in a low voice, leaned over and kissed Simon, and said, "You came just in time, help me see which one to wear tonight. The dress is appropriate."

Simon looked at Catherine, who had put on a long silver dress that suited her personal temperament very well, and said, "Just don't bump into shirts with Catherine."

Janet also glanced at Catherine, and said with a smile: "I don't choose this kind of dress that makes people have the courage to approach."

Catherine dissatisfied

He argued in a low voice, "Why did I make people afraid to approach?"

Janet pointed at Simon: "Look, he won't dare to approach you."

Catherine suddenly glanced at Simon with a hint of resentment.

Simon smiled and walked to the sofa next to him and sat down, saying, "It's just that you are here and affect my performance."

Janet picked up a dress from the hanger and gestured in front of her, giving Simon a casual glance: "Would you like me to leave first and give you some alone time?"

"It doesn't take too long, an hour is enough."

"little bastard."

Catherine blushed: "If you do this again, I'm leaving."

After such a quarrel, Janet quickly chose the dress, which was still the burgundy red she liked. After trying it on, she didn't take it off again. She called the blond stylist who secretly winked at Simon after seeing Simon, and went to the next door to touch up her makeup together.

Perhaps because she was unwilling to follow her, Catherine stood in the distance, arranging the dresses on the hanger, as if she could clearly feel the eyes of the little man behind her.

Soon, a pair of big hands wrapped around her waist, and the man's breath got closer and closer, and Catherine said softly, "Jenny is here."

Simon just hummed softly, rubbed the woman's smooth silk dress, put his probe on Catherine's neck and kissed it, and said, "Take off your high heels, okay? I really don't dare to approach you when you are wearing high heels. "

Katherine's original height reached 180cm, and when she put on 5cm high heels, she immediately surpassed Simon, who was still only a little over 1.8 meters tall.

"Little, bastard, no, I will accommodate you."

Catherine murmured softly, but still obediently kicked off the high heels on her feet, and leaned slightly on the hanger.

After six o'clock, the mansion began to be lively.

Janet had been standing in front of the villa to greet the guest rooms all over Los Angeles, which were gathered here, until half past six, when she saw Simon appearing beside her, the woman kept smiling and Jessica, the heroine of "Steel Magnolia" who had just arrived. The Lange couple greeted each other, and when the other party entered the villa, they reached out and pinched Simon's waist unceremoniously: "Bastard, you really tossed for an hour."

Simon took Janet's little hand and squeezed it, and the nonsense came: "No, just chatting."

"Nonsence."

Janet gave Simon a stern look, and saw that the Robert Rehm couple came from not far away, and then let Simon go.

At seven o'clock, the reception officially began.

Compared with the previous parties in this mansion, the scale of this reception was not the grandest, but it was definitely the one with the most attendance of big names. Due to the series of miracles that Daenerys Entertainment has created in the field of film and television this year, many top stars in Hollywood who were originally reserved have begun to take the initiative to associate with Daenerys Entertainment.

Moreover, compared to the past, at tonight's party, it was difficult for most of the guests to care about his age in front of Simon, but they were generally more in awe. After all, six films with a box office value of 100 million yuan were produced in one year, and none of them were missed, and all six films were destined to rank in the top ten of the annual box office list. This kind of innovation has never happened in Hollywood.

Perhaps, in addition to Simon Westeros himself, it will be difficult for Hollywood to break this record in the future.

"Ms. Pfeiffer, the heroine of "Flying Innocent" needs that kind of American sweetheart style. You are too beautiful, and your temperament is more glamorous, which is not suitable for this role."

On the lawn in the backyard of the mansion, the sky has completely darkened, and people are moving in the brightly lit courtyard.

Simon stood at the buffet table and wanted to choose some food to comfort his hungry stomach. Tonight, Michelle Pfeiffer, who was wearing a blue low-cut evening dress, came over and took the initiative to talk to him.

Speaking of which, since Simon entered Hollywood, the name Michelle Pfeiffer has been often talked about, and Michelle Pfeiffer, who just turned 30 this year, is at the peak of her appearance. Before that, Daenerys Entertainment and Michelle Pfeiffer also had several potential cooperation opportunities. Simon also asked the other party to try the role of Mia in "Pulp Fiction", but it didn't happen in the end.

"In that case, Simon, do you think there are other characters in Daenerys Entertainment's projects that are suitable for me?"

Michelle Pfeiffer looked at Simon, and after saying this, a glass of red wine in his hand was brought to his mouth and sipped, and he glanced over with obvious hints.

Simon was just a little hungry. In some respects, he had just been 'full'. At this time, his resistance to women was at its strongest. Hearing that, he just said: "If there is, I will definitely contact you."

Michelle Pfeiffer didn't see the eagerness in Simon's eyes. Seeing that he was still holding a plate, he could only say: "So, Simon, how about going to dance together? Are you really that hungry?"

Simon said honestly, "Yeah, but, Michelle, don't you have a boyfriend?"

I vaguely remember that this woman should be married.

Michelle Pfeiffer shook her head and said calmly, "I just got divorced recently."

"Oh, that's a pity."

"It's nothing," Michelle Pfeiffer said: "Since the two can't continue to be together, of course they should be separated."

After chatting for a few more words, seeing that Simon didn't show much movement, Michelle Pfeiffer walked away with interest.

Just as Michelle Pfeiffer walked away, Sandra Bullock walked over with Courteney Cox in her arms.

Simon had just picked out the food and was about to walk away, watching the two

The appearance of a woman's intimacy suddenly sounded the joke that she made with Sandra a few days ago. This girl won't really start to act, will she?

However, after taking a closer look at Courteney's expression, Simon realized that the two women were not as close as he thought.

"Hey, what were you talking about with that woman just now?"

Simon smiled: "Between men and women, of course, the discussion is about men and women."

Sandra rolled her eyes when she heard Simon's attack, and unceremoniously snatched a shrimp ball from his plate, slurping, "I heard that you were just robbed of two scripts recently. ?"

Simon not only did not hide the two scripts of "The Rocketeer" and "Firebird Attack", but instead released the news privately. He hoped that through this incident, Hollywood would understand one thing, and Daenerys Entertainment took a fancy to it. Even if it is taken away, it will not necessarily achieve the same success as Daenerys Entertainment, but may be a complete failure.

In fact, this state of affairs in Hollywood is very common. Just like the same superhero movies, the same widespread popularity, some of them are eye-catching, and some are terrible.

Of course, this cannot be said to Sandra and Courtney.

Simon took Sandra and Courtney to a nearby seat and sat down, and said in a relaxed tone: "It's just two scripts, if they are robbed, they will be robbed."

Sandra saw that Simon was speaking lightly, but there was a little more suspicion in her eyes. She didn't believe that this guy would be so relaxed. With what she knew about Simon, there must be something she didn't know.

After Simon finished speaking, he took the initiative to change the subject and chat with Courtney.

Compared with Sandra's carelessness in front of Simon, Courteney is obviously a lot more restrained.

Everything that has happened in the past year has made her lose even regrets and other emotions, but she is somewhat fortunate that she can continue to retain some friendship with this young man in front of her.

Just seeing Simon and Michelle Pfeiffer chatting, Courteney couldn't help but think back to when she and Simon were talking about the actress.

At that time, both himself and the young man in front of him were just nobody, and his state could even be said to be a little desolate. However, when she dreamed of becoming a big star like Michelle Pfeiffer, he was very indifferent, and he said with great interest that he could try to date Michelle Pfeiffer in the future, which was naturally laughed at by her.

Just now, she discovered that Michelle Pfeiffer, who she could only look up to at the beginning, had completely failed to show any big star attitude in front of this young man, but instead showed obvious flattery.

Now he has indeed reached the point where most people in Hollywood can only please and look up.
