"This manor is very nice. [Fights Break the Sky]%%"

In the reception room, a brown-haired girl complimented Murphy politely, "Very tasteful."

"It was all arranged by Gail." Murphy responded, and then asked directly, "Is there anything you can do for me, Megan?"

It was David Ellison's sister, Megan Ellison, who came to the door. He heard David Ellison mention it some time ago. Dropped out of college to go Hollywood.

Even if she didn't say the purpose of Megan Ellison's coming, he could guess some of it.

Through cooperating with him, David Ellison got rid of the plight of a beginner and was recognized by Hollywood. Today, he is one of the few investors in the circle who holds huge sums of money.

It is no exaggeration to say that David Ellison has succeeded.

Of course Megan Ellison also knew this, and knew that Murphy didn't like to go around in circles when talking about work, and said directly, "I heard that you are preparing a new film? Is it the autobiography of the financial fraudster Jordan Belfort?"

Murphy nodded slightly, "The project is now in the hands of 20th Century Fox."

"How are the project funds prepared?" Megan Ellison asked tentatively, "Can I participate in the investment?"

She added, "It's only a partial investment, and I won't interfere with the crew or any of your work."

How did David Ellison succeed? Megan Ellison saw clearly that investing in Murphy's project was simply the best financial plan.

Compared with Hollywood superstars like Leonardo DiCaprio who demand power corresponding to investment, Murphy does not reject investors like David Ellison and Megan Ellison. There is no ability to interfere with the operation of the crew.

But this matter is not something he can decide unilaterally.

Murphy thought for a moment and said, "Do you know Kara Firth?"

"Know. [Fights Break Sphere]" Megan Ellison, who had met her before, "is the director of production and distribution at Twentieth Century Fox."

Taking the pad from the side, Murphy wrote down Kara Firth's private phone number, tore it off and handed it to Megan Ellison, "You go to contact Kara Firth, and you need to talk to her about this matter."

Megan Ellison instantly understood that Murphy did not reject her investment, so she quickly put away the note and said with a warm smile, "Thank you, Murphy."

"You're welcome." Murphy shook his head, "You are David's sister, and David helped me before."

Hearing this, the smile on Megan Ellison's face froze, and then recovered. She knew that she had no friendship with Murphy. If it wasn't for her brother David Ellison, she would never have been introduced by him. Kara Firth.

She stood up, "Then I will take my leave first."

Murphy nodded, stood up and sent her out of the reception room.

Probably hearing the voice in the corridor, Gal Gadot, who was on the same floor, opened the door of the study, glanced at Murphy, and then walked over.

"How's the paper going?" Murphy asked concerned.

Gal Gadot is graduating this year, and after prep and years of formal study, she will graduate from UCLA's law school this year.

"I didn't write..." Gal Gadot shook his head, "I'm not in a good state today, I've been looking up information and watching the news on the Internet."

While speaking, she dragged Murphy into the lounge and chatted about the news she had just seen.

"I just saw the news on the Internet." Gal Gadot took the water glass handed over by Murphy, took a sip, and said, "Paramount Pictures and Tom Cruise's Cruz Swagra have reunited. A cooperation agreement has been reached, and a joint statement was just released this morning. [Gate of the Mysterious World]”

Hearing Gal Gadot's words, Murphy immediately showed a thoughtful look.

"What about the new terms of their cooperation?" he asked.

Looking back, Gal Gadot said, "It wasn't published in the statement, but the site that posted the news said,

Paramount Pictures has canceled the annual fee of Cruz Wagra. Tom Cruise will definitely reduce his salary and dividends in the next cooperation with Paramount Pictures, and the proportion may not be small. "

"I guess it can't be fake." Murphy nodded.

This method of hitting first and then pulling was used by Paramount Pictures quite shrewdly. Summer Redstone is indeed an old fox.

There is no doubt that even now that the appeal of superstars is far less than that of the 1990s, superstars like Tom Cruise still have considerable value. It is impossible for Summer Redstone and Paramount Pictures to completely Abandoning Tom Cruise and playing first and then pulling is mainly to reduce Tom Cruise's salary.

This is also the real purpose of major Hollywood production companies to suppress stars.

Murphy sighed softly in his heart, "Summer Redstone is a media giant after all."

Such a person has strength, brains, ability, and lack of social experience. Once he stands on the opposite side, it will undoubtedly be a very headache.

Based on Murphy's guess, Summer Redstone hasn't troubled him for so many years. It may be that the big man didn't take that trivial matter to heart at all, or it may be that the other party has forgotten it long ago. After all, Summer Redstone Shi Dong is definitely busy with his affairs, not to mention his daily affairs, and fighting his family all these years must have consumed a lot of time and energy.

But the human heart is the most unpredictable thing. Who knows when Summer Redstone will pay attention to himself and remember that little thing back then?

Even the current Murphy will not underestimate the energy of Summer Redstone. Although the other party may no longer be a billionaire after being hyped by the media during the last economic crisis, how reliable are these words? ?

You'd be a fool to take the media hype seriously.

However, Murphy is no longer the former Murphy. He cooperates closely with 20th Century Fox. Even if Summer Redstone really wants to do something, he will have certain concerns.

It's hard to guess how this kind of thing will develop. After all, the initiative is not in Murphy's hands, and it is even more impossible for Murphy to foolishly go to Summer Redstone to bow his head and admit his mistake. The best way at this stage can only be to add more be careful.

Gal Gadot and Murphy chatted for a while about the grievances and grievances between Tom Cruise and Paramount Pictures, and suddenly remembered another thing.

"Are you going to buy real estate in New York?" she asked.

"I just have this idea." Murphy simply explained, "We will stay in New York for a long time to work in the future. Living in our own house is more comfortable than staying in a hotel, and the current house is not expensive."

Gal Gadot nodded slightly, "You can make up your mind about this kind of thing."

Murphy added, "We can't just live in Los Angeles, can we? It's also good to experience the style of the Big Apple once in a while."

Gal Gadot rolled his eyes, "Honey, do you want to experience traffic jams?"

"New York and Manhattan are not particularly congested." Murphy shrugged.

He had experienced even more congested situations in the past. At that time, he lived in a city famous for spring water. The road congestion could not be described simply by parking lots, and even surpassed first-tier cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen. The congestion rate ranked first for several consecutive months. No. 1 in the country.

And this kind of congestion is more of a **, every spring season, there are always more than a dozen main roads to start road repairs together, a north-south main road is repaired, and other roads used to divert traffic are also started at the same time , the consequence of this is that the entire area is a little bit turbulent, and more than a dozen nearby roads are directly turned into parking lots.

The most exaggerated thing is that a road in the city center has been repaired and dug three times in a row due to the problem of buried pipelines in just over half a year. This super-high communication efficiency in the information age was shocking to the point of speechlessness.

Of course, it's nothing, after all, it's just congestion. It can be explained in one sentence how hard it is to make the city prosperous!

Congestion is something that is unavoidable in major cities around the world.

Afterwards, Murphy asked Grace to contact several real estate agents in New York, who provided many residences in the Manhattan area, and several of them were located in the famous Upper East Side, which is also Murphy's priority when purchasing real estate. .

The Upper East Side of Manhattan starts from 59th Street in the south, 96th Street in the north, Fifth Avenue in the west, and the East River in the east. Avenue, Park Avenue, Lexington Avenue, Third Avenue, Second Avenue, First Avenue, York Avenue, and East End Avenue.

From Fifth Avenue to the east and Lexington Avenue to the west is the most expensive and popular residential area in New York, known as the "Gold Coast" of New York, where the richest people in New York live, the real rich Area.

Some people say that the upper east affluent district of Manhattan not only represents the agglomeration of the wealthiest people in New York, its air is also filled with the taste of money and conservative values, with a sophisticated charm tempered by capital and time, Its many famous museums and the world's top designer stores reveal the urban taste of an international metropolis, and the best private and public schools subconsciously create the concept of class...

Even after the brokerage crisis, housing prices on the Upper East Side are still high, with a minimum of $3 million for an average four-bedroom apartment.

Murphy set aside a budget of $15 million to $25 million to let Grace find suitable Upper East Side properties for him.

Although Murphy and Gal Gadot are not the kind of people who like to buy crazy land, but at their level, owning residences in New York and Los Angeles, the two largest cities in the United States, can only be said to be the most basic configuration.

After Grace had relevant information, Murphy made a special trip to Manhattan to look around, on the one hand to look at the house, and on the other hand to go to Wall Street to investigate the possibility of on-site shooting.

When he returned to Los Angeles, Kara Firth sent good news that Twentieth Century Fox had completed the review of Jordan Belfort's film project and decided to invest in the film. (To be continued.)
