"Citibank offered a 7-year loan plan with an annual interest rate of 4.25% this time, which is 0.5% lower than the annual interest rate of Lyon Credit. However, they asked Daenerys Entertainment to use 10% of the company's shares as collateral. , At the same time, Citibank has priority if Daenerys Entertainment continues to carry out loan financing in the next three years. I think this plan is feasible, the company's operating conditions are very good, and the 10% share mortgage will not bring the risk of transfer of control , As for the priority, there is actually a lot of room for negotiation in the relevant details."

At the end of the previous year, Daenerys Pictures received a $100 million loan from Wells Fargo, with a 5-year annual interest rate as high as 6.5%. With the improvement of the North American economic situation and the continuous improvement of Daenerys Entertainment's own strength, the interest rate of the company's loans from banks has also been continuously reduced, and it is now on par with many large companies with a 3a credit rating.

In the office of Daenerys Entertainment Headquarters, Nancy Brill introduced the work results of her trip to New York. Amy listened carefully on the surface, but her thoughts were a little off.

Capable, energetic and ambitious.

Opposite this petite woman who was only a few years older than her, just two months into the job, Amy felt a strong threat from a woman's instinct. Although Nancy's integrated operation of the consumer goods sector has not seen results in a short period of time, her business vision and negotiation skills during the company's acquisition of Blockbuster have been recognized by Simon.

It stands to reason that the board seat that Blockbuster promised should be the CEO of Amy, but Simon gave it to Nancy, which made Amy inevitably have some pimples in her heart, and she really regretted taking Nancy herself. Digged from Hasbro.

Perhaps, if Simon were to find someone to replace her in the future, Nancy would probably be the best candidate.

Because of this subconscious anxiety, Amy has been working a lot harder recently. Moreover, she did not dare to use her power to set up obstacles for Nancy.

The synergy between the various departments of the company that Simon forced to promote years ago is actually to avoid internal struggles at Daenerys Entertainment. If she dared to exclude Nancy on purpose, it would only be herself who would be unlucky after being discovered by Simon. Daenerys Entertainment is different from a publicly-held public company. As the boss, Simon can make a decision.

Thinking of this, Janet's smiling face at noon couldn't help but emerge in Amy's mind.

It is actually quite common for the top executives of Hollywood studios to negotiate and consume some of the company's interests.

In the late 1970s, Columbia Pictures head David Bergman embezzled $61,000 of the company's funds to reimburse personal travel expenses was exposed, and it became the biggest scandal in Hollywood that year.

The matter was hyped by the media, and Bergman also took the blame and resigned.

However, within the circle, few people criticized Bergman. Instead, they condemned the whistleblower one-sidedly, believing that this was making a big fuss, and bringing the matter to the media even smeared the entire Hollywood.

In the end, David Bergman was still prosperous after leaving Colombia, but the whistleblower named Cliff Robertson was rejected by the entire circle and his career was ruined.

Ron MacMillan behaves like David Bergman, like many Hollywood studio executives.

After entering this circle for more than two years, it is obviously impossible for either Simon or Janet to not know this. However, Simon acquiesced in allowing Janet to kick Ron McMillan out of the company, in effect ripping off the mountain and warning them that these company executives should not behave like other studio executives.

Whether it is forcing the company to cooperate and avoid infighting, or this time, it is enough to show Simon's ambition to continue to develop and grow Daenerys Entertainment.

Obviously, if you can't keep up with his ambitions, you can only be out.

"Amy?"

Amy's distraction was interrupted by a voice across the desk.

After returning to her senses, Amy sorted her thoughts and said, "Nancy, the 4.25% annual interest rate is really good, and the priority can be negotiated. However, you don't know Simon very well, and he should not agree to mortgage Daenerys. A stake in entertainment. Also, 10 percent is way too high.”

Hearing this, Nancy raised her eyebrows slightly, and in the blink of an eye, she roughly understood something, and said, "Only a little boy will stick to his toy and not let others interfere, he is already an adult. Besides, I explained it just now. However, there is no risk associated with this type of collateral.”

"Okay," Amy showed a smile on the corner of her mouth, glanced at a clock on her desk, and said, "Simon should have started work over there in Melbourne, and I will call him to discuss this at night. thing."

Nancy followed and glanced at the row of mini electronic clocks on Amy's desk. The three clocks showed the time in Los Angeles, New York and Melbourne respectively. She immediately made up her mind to let the assistant buy a few clocks and put them on her desk. , but said, "I'd better call him. Besides, Amy, I think you should be stronger in front of him, and don't always be so submissive."

Amy nodded, didn't argue with Nancy about the phone, just smiled and said, "He's our boss."

Melbourne.

Today is the second day of filming for The Batman.

Filming has never been a fun job. The more popular a super blockbuster is on the screen, the more tedious and boring the filming process is. Moreover, the large-scale crew is mobilized, spending tens of millions of dollars every day at every turn

It is also a powerful pressure for the main creator.

The budget of "Batman" is very loose, but Simon still has to deal with all kinds of unexpected situations.

In just two days of filming, the crew faced a very difficult problem-leakage.

Disney did not force "Who Framed Roger Rabbit" to the top of the year by buying the box office, and the box office of "Rain Man" has just begun. As a result, Pulp Fiction, which grossed $156.93 million at the box office last year, is still the box office champion in 1988.

"Lola Run" and "Pulp Fiction" have two consecutive films and two consecutive annual titles. Even without a series of auras such as billions of dollars in wealth, Simon's new film is definitely one of the things that the media pays the most attention to.

The information exposed in the early stage of "Batman" is pitiful. With the start of filming, almost all the mainstream media around the world sent reporters to Melbourne, including a large number of paparazzi and diehard fans of "Batman" comics.

Under the siege of the pervasive paparazzi reporters, it was only the first day of filming, and many on-set photos had already appeared in various gossip tabloids.

The crew is filming as usual today, but producer Joe Silver is busy issuing a 'copyright notice' in major mainstream media and formulating stricter confidentiality measures.

If it's just an ordinary set photo, it's not a big deal to be exposed. However, when it comes to the Batmobile, Batmobile, the styling of the leading actors, and even the script of the film, once it is exposed, it will definitely have a serious impact on the film.

Daenerys Entertainment has previously released the final makeup photos of 'Batman', other 'Catwoman', 'Black Mask' and 'Batmobile', 'Batmobile' are still under wraps, and the company will formulate them in advance. The publicity strategy will be announced in due course.

Audiences need a sense of mystery and freshness. If relevant information is published in the newspapers in advance, the rhythm of the film's announcement will be disrupted.

Fortunately, when it comes to film props and starring styling, these are all copyrighted.

The crew solemnly issued a 'copyright statement' through the media. As long as most regular media do not want to get involved in a lawsuit, they will not rashly publish them even if they get relevant set photos. Of course, some unscrupulous tabloids that don't care about being sued are not included. The crew can only take a two-pronged approach and take precautions through stricter confidentiality measures.

In order to run in the crew, the last two weeks have mainly been the literary and drama part of the film. If you don't consider the surrounding chaos, everything is in order.

Australia does not have the strict working time limit supported by strong local unions in the United States. However, the "Batman" crew still has an eight-hour working system, starting at 9 am and ending at 5 pm.

Today's filming is a few scenes at the headquarters of the 'Black Mask' Roman Siennes family business janus cosmetics company, located in a 30-storey building next to the Yarra River in the heart of Melbourne.

Five o'clock in the afternoon.

The day's work ended on time, and the crew and crew stopped working one after another. The assistant director hired by Simon after he came to Melbourne took the initiative to send the director's script over.

Simon took the script, temporarily stopped talking with Joe Silver, and asked the young man with a round face and disheveled hair beside him, "How do you feel, Peter?"

The young man's name was Peter Jackson.

That's right, Peter Jackson, who later filmed the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy.

The current Peter Jackson is only twenty-eight years old, and although his face is somewhat round, he is not the fat man he was later on. A few years ago, Peter Jackson and a group of buddies had just finished his first film, "The Strangers," in their spare time, but it didn't elicit much response.

Heard that "Batman" is about to be filmed in Melbourne, and some local filmmakers will be hired. Although he is a New Zealander, Peter Jackson is excited to apply here.

The crew originally disliked this young man who was just shooting an unknown cult film. After Peter Jackson expressed that he was willing to accept even chores, he got a job as a field manager.

When Simon arrived in Melbourne, he stumbled across Jackson, and after a little chat, he was promoted from field manager to his assistant director's position.

Although he was seven years older than the young man in front of him, facing Simon, Peter Jackson was still somewhat restrained.

If he really feels it, he feels that the Hollywood crew is too wasteful, but the cost of these two days is enough to make a few more "Stranger Things" by himself. However, of course he won't tell the truth, just said: "Very good, Simon."

Simon smiled, ignoring Peter Jackson's restraint and caution.

As far back as I can remember, Peter Jackson has always been a very slick guy, less angular than the usual Hollywood filmmakers. This is actually very understandable. It is impossible to break into Hollywood from a small New Zealand without letting go of the restraint and pride of the filmmakers.

Now that Peter Jackson has been brought to his side, Simon naturally has the intention of supporting him, but he does not intend to help the seedlings.

Opportunities will be given to each other, and the key is to look at Jackson's own efforts.

After chatting casually, after checking today's work records and confirming that they are correct, Simon called the film's main creators to his side to discuss tomorrow's work arrangements, and then everyone dispersed.

The "Batman" crew stayed at a three-star hotel called Kendall in Collingwood, northeast of the city.

Although Janet's father wanted Simon to live in the Johnston family estate, Simon didn't want to travel long distances every day. The hotel was already packed, so he chose to live with the crew.

Back at the Kendall Hotel, Simon just walked in

In the lobby, Jennifer walked over with Sophia Fisher, followed by some other people behind the two women.

Simon and Sophia greeted each other, and listened to the woman introducing the other people one by one, before leaving with the two women temporarily.

The three took the elevator to Simon's suite on the sixth floor. Jennifer took the initiative to go to the bedroom to help Simon find suitable clothes. In the evening, she wanted to entertain those people just now for dinner, and she could not dress too casually.

In order to prevent the incident at the Plaza Hotel from happening again, Jennifer takes care of Simon's current necessities, even the servants who are responsible for helping Simon to clean up the room are sent by the Johnston family.

After a busy day, Simon sat down on the sofa and leaned tiredly on the soft backrest.

Sophia took the initiative to help Simon pass the coffee, brought it to the man, and then sat down on the single sofa next to him, saying: "About Gucci, I think this is a good opportunity. The second generation of Gucci in 1983 After the death of the head Rudolf Gucci, the Gucci family has been in a state of civil strife. Rudolf Gucci's son Maurizio Gucci competed with his uncle Aldo Gucci for control of the company by reporting tax evasion. Aldo Gucci was sent to prison. Although he has control of the company, Maurizio has no business skills, and Gucci has gone from bad to worse. After Aldo Gucci was released from prison last year, he in turn sued Maurizio Gucci, wants to split the Gucci brand, and even asked the Italian court to freeze Maurizio's shares. Up to now, Gucci has been seriously damaged, and many members of the Gucci family are interested in selling shares. We are now taking action, and even can Get the absolute controlling stake in Gucci."

Simon held the coffee and listened to the woman, and asked directly, "How much does it cost?"

"About $135 million," Sophia said, and immediately added: "Gucci has more than 100 boutiques in Europe and North America, and their product line is also very complete. What is even more rare is the value of the Gucci brand itself. If Such a price tag would certainly not have been possible without the turmoil of recent years affecting the company's operations."

Simon looked at the woman and said: "$135 million, let's not talk about this for the time being. Sophie, you originally told me that you wanted to start the red wine business. Now, if I take over Gucci, you think you can take over this company. Are you taking care of it?"

Sophia nodded without hesitation and said, "I want to try."

"It's not something you can do with a single word," Simon put down his coffee cup and sat up straight. "$135 million is really nothing to me, but you know how many people in this world cry. It's impossible to get even one-tenth of $135 million in funding."
