King of Hollywood

Chapter 262 Master

"?" Spears was stunned for a moment, he was lyrical, and was suddenly interrupted by Adrian, and he couldn't turn his head for a while.

"What if it's not in California?" Adrian recounted it slowly, with a relaxed look, and his expression remained unchanged.

Since Spears came here after patiently planning for more than a month, he naturally knew a lot of things, so after a pause, he immediately understood what Adrian meant. His face turned pale at first, then flushed red again, his breathing became rough, he clenched his fists and glared at Adrian, his body trembled slightly, as if he had been greatly insulted.

Adrian, who had a panoramic view of his situation, smiled slightly, and tried to find out how much the other party had done with just one sentence. Britney did not do well, and he has managed his mouth for more than a month.

"I, Adrian, you're big, you're powerful, but it's big if you make me bend like this, I'm a father, I love my daughter, I love my family, I absolutely I won't let her get hurt..." Spears continued to express his feelings impassionedly, and his dignified appearance really seemed like that.

Adrian curled his mouth mockingly, and interrupted him unceremoniously again, that's enough, Spears, we are all decent people, please don't make indecent noise like low-level street hooligans, okay? "Do not skip words.

Spears suddenly showed a choked expression, and his face flushed even more, but Adrian's voice drifted into his ears again. "

"What...?" Spears was taken aback by the inexplicable words, and looked at Adrian with a puzzled expression.

"Cisco was founded in 1984 and provided Internet solutions. Its equipment and software products are mainly used to connect computer network systems. In the current IT industry, they rank among the top few, and their current market value has just exceeded 200 billion US dollars, so , 0.01 of the shares is 20 million US dollars." Adrian folded his hands in front of him, watching Spears and said unhurriedly.

Spears' eyes widened for a moment, and although he tried to look unimpressed, his throat twitched.

Adrian, who saw it in his eyes, smiled lightly. As early as after signing Britney, he started to have people investigate her family situation. When Vincent Price or Martin Mortimer was taken by him After returning to his command, the investigation became clearer, so Britney came to him in a panic that day, but he didn't take it to heart at all.

James Spears is a construction contractor. According to the popular words in his previous life, he is a contractor, and he is also a small contractor, and he has the shortcomings that all Americans have, such as arrogance, blindness, self-righteousness and so on. His wife, Britney's mother, Lynn Spears, was a little better, a primary school teacher, and more intelligent, but not quite the same overall.

Although Xiao Baotou can earn a lot of money if he does a good job, the annual income of the Spears family is only about hundreds of thousands, which is no different from that of ordinary middle-class people. Otherwise, they would not have sent Britney to join the Mickey Mouse Club so readily. , and moved her family from Louisiana to California after she was signed. After Britney released her debut album this year, she has become a very popular girl star. With this album, she has earned millions of dollars in less than a year. , and Britney obviously has greater potential, which is equivalent to picking up a gold mine

Although these incomes do not belong to the Spears couple, they are Britney's parents after all, so the Spears couple will never allow Britney to escape from their control, let alone allow others to touch or even share their daughter. This is also a part of love. Kind of, isn't it? Moreover, maybe you can get more benefits from Adrian, people's greed is always endless.

"Not only that," Adrian continued, still so calm, as if he hadn't been moved, "It is expected that Cisco's market value will increase three to five times in the next year, so... ..."

At this point, he raised his hands and didn't say any more, while Spears tugged at the neckline involuntarily, swallowed more obviously, and his face flushed again, but this time it was because of excitement rather than acting. The previous 20 million has already moved his heart. Has he ever had so much money? What's more, it may be doubled several times in the next year, three times is 60 million and five times...

"You may have doubts, but as long as you pay attention to Cisco's stock price at any time, you will know whether my words are true." Adrian spoke again at this time.

Spears was more determined in his heart. Since the other party dared to say that, he must be sure. Obviously, he was still a little bit afraid of this matter, and maybe he could be more... At this moment, he met Adrian's gaze , shrank his neck involuntarily, and the other party looked at him with a half-smile, giving people a condescending feeling, as if looking at an ant.

The words were swallowed immediately, Spears is not an idiot, and he just accepts it when he sees it, and immediately lowered his posture, and apologized carefully and said with a smile... Are you serious, Adrian? "

"In my opinion, your daughter is worth the price." Adrian spread his hands.

Spears was a little embarrassed by these overly naked words, but he was thick-skinned enough and quickly recovered. He nodded immediately. Thank you very much for your generosity, Adrian. "

"So be it, I'll let the lawyer contact you to discuss the details," Adrian said casually, "but half of it will be in your wife's name."

Spears was stunned for a moment, and then understood his intentions. Although it hurt a little, he didn't raise any objections. After Adrian made a gesture of asking, he got up, nodded and bowed and said goodbye.

"By the way, Spears, there is one more thing I want to remind you," Adrian stopped him after he walked to the door, and put his hands on the table, still looking aloof, "Although there is nothing left in our agreement on paper, since we have made a deal, we must abide by it, understand?" Don't skip words.

"Ming...understood." Spears hesitated for a moment, then nodded after responding.

This is an obvious warning. Without a specific contract, there is no legal binding force. Therefore, as long as the Spears and his wife want to, they don't have to abide by today's deal, and they can use it to make a profit when needed. But in the same way, as long as they dare to do that, Adrian can use various means to deal with them without restriction, and let them be completely finished.

After James Spears left, Adrian continued to sit in the chair leisurely and motionless until the knock on the door sounded. Next, Charlize appeared at the door, looked at him, and gestured with a complicated expression.

"Let her in." Adrian said with a smile, then blinked at Charlize, the girl rolled her eyes, turned her head and waved to the outside.

"Ed" Britney immediately ran in with worry, regardless of whether Charlize was still present, and threw herself into his arms around the desk. Adrian informed Spears of her appointment with Spears, so she waited in a room outside her office while the negotiations were underway.

"Okay, it's okay, Boob." After Charlize closed the office door, Adrian gently patted the back of the girl in his arms.

"Really? Really?" Don't skip words. Britney asked twice, with deep worry on her face, "I've been very scared in the room over there. If...if...then I really don't want to do it."

"I said, you want me, Boob," Adrian stroked her hair and kissed her pretty face, "You did a great job of not revealing more about the situation carelessly."

"I'm not a fool." Britney pouted in displeasure, but quickly grabbed his collar nervously, you mean, Ed? "

"No, I spent tens of millions to buy you from your father." Adrian said in a relaxed tone.

"Buy...buy it?" The girl was slightly distracted, and then showed a disappointed expression. Although her EQ was negative and Adrian had washed her brains for several years, she still had affection for her parents, and her heart was even more so. Naively hoped that her parents would allow her to maintain a relationship with Adrian, and now hearing such a result, it is normal to feel disappointed.

And this was exactly what Adrian wanted. He immediately picked up Britney, let her sit on his body, squeezed her chin and kissed her tender red lips, don't even think about it. Those are all over, in a word, you don’t need to worry about those anymore, you are already mine, Boo Boo, no one will hurt you, and no one will embarrass you, you just need to concentrate on hitting a higher goal in music. "

There is no need to mention this matter, the seeds have already been planted, and as time goes by, she will slowly erase the weight of her parents in her heart little by little.

"Strike a higher goal?" Britney finally got rid of the feeling of loss, tilted her head to look at Adrian and asked after a while.

"Yes, shoulder to shoulder or even...better than Madonna." Adrian pressed the girl's forehead and kissed her lips again, and then in exchange for the other party's violent attack, he kissed her repeatedly several times before it counted. give up.

"Thank you..." Britney said pantingly, then her thoughtful expression changed, she giggled and leaned into Adrian's ear, and blew ambiguously, "Master"

Hearing this title, Adrian raised his eyebrows, feeling extremely happy in his heart. This title alone is worth the 20 million Cisco shares. Although Britney calls him that now, more because of fun and jokes, this is tantamount to opening a small hole above the dam, and it will not be long before it will completely collapse under the washing of the current, when she is unhindered in life When he uses this title, then she belongs to him from the inside to the outside.

I just said that she will gradually erase the weight of her parents in her heart, and now she has taken a big step, which is worthy of congratulations.

"I like this name," Adrian looked at the girl with a smile, "You should be able to move out now, right?" Without skipping words.

"No problem, I'll let the agent find a suitable house soon, Ai..." Britney smiled sweetly, then noticed Adrian's displeased look, and suddenly giggled, clasping her arms Hold his neck, crawl on his chest and exhale like blue. I will move out soon, my master. "

The matter was resolved, which not only settled Britney's parents, but also made her a big step towards becoming a complete owner. However, the 20 million US dollars was not so easy to get.

"I've got people ready, and although I've considered a lot of variables, I have to remind you, Ed, that the final result may be less." Reggett said in the study of Adrian's mansion.

"It doesn't matter, no matter how small it is, it won't be less than 10 billion, right?" Don't skip words. Adrian shrugged his shoulders indifferently, "We can be regarded as a tiger's mouth, Uncle Leggett."

Following him, he showed a curious look again. Didn't you often say that I have no talent in finance? Prepare for this time basically according to the data I gave. "

"Because you are the director of Miracle." Leggett shrugged leisurely, and Adrian couldn't help laughing out loud.

Of course, the humor is humorous, and I have to explain to you, Ed, I have worked for your father for many years, and I have a very professional team. Although there are differences in the outlook, the bubble is certain, Your suggestion is just at the middle point of the disagreement, so the accountants decided to prepare with the data you gave after deliberation. "

"I just, absolutely not because of the combination of the news I got from my uncle." Adrian sighed, and then changed the subject. It's a pity that we are not qualified to hold the scissors yet. "

In 1992 and 1997, Adrian was able to follow the sheep shearing because the situation was clear, and the real giants didn't mind giving others a little soup. But it will be different next year. No one can make predictions. Even those on Wall Street, those who can hold scissors are real giants, and they are all part of this country. Although the history of the Kewell family is not short, it is not a big family. Uncle Anderson is quite powerful on Wall Street, and he is not enough compared to a real giant.

So Adrian is starting to prepare from now on. The company's property is managed by Claude, and he has discussed it with him from the beginning. Don't worry too much, but Adrian still has so many investments to deal with. Even he, who is very mediocre in finance, doesn't mean that he can cash out immediately if he wants to cash out. If he doesn't want to be harvested, he has to plan ahead and grab as much food as possible. Although there may be losses, the actual profit is enough.

Therefore, regardless of the fact that the 20 million yuan given to the Spears couple may be multiplied several times in the future, it is not certain whether they will get it by then, unless they sell it now, but is it possible with their greed? Especially in the past few weeks, after the stock has started to grow wildly, it is even less likely that they will lose it.

At that time, their faces must look good. Adrian thought maliciously. He didn't have the slightest sympathy, he didn't instigate the Spears and his wife to invest all their net worth, and he didn't instigate them to speculate in futures, which was kind enough.

Alright, let’s turn the topic to movies. At the end of January 1999, a movie was released quietly in theaters. Although it is so low-key, this movie is bound to leave a big mark in the history of movies. Pen because it's called The Blair Witch

Ever since Perez and Harmon of Bosworth gained Adrian's support, they started to hype according to their ideas, established related websites, spread rumors on major websites, and guided netizens to generate various associations. In the second half of 1998, many people were discussing the witch named Blair in Maryland and the three missing college students.

The local police in Maryland were unbearable to be harassed. They issued several statements stating that there was no such case, but no one was there. Various inquiries and emails were still pouring in like snowflakes. In the end, the state government had to find a way to organize a small-scale search, of course, nothing was found.

But the public still disagrees, insisting that the government has concealed the truth. After all, there is no country in the world where the people will have a government. What's more, the relevant website also released the interview of the school's parents, and after claiming to find the film left by the college students, it also released a video on the Internet, and edited part of it and mailed it to the "Science Exploration" channel.

As a result, the whole thing became even more sensational, especially the image of the female college student crying to the camera and talking to herself, which aroused many people's emotions. After such a commotion until early January 1999, it was uploaded on the website that a film company had sold the films of college students, which would be played in cinemas after editing, and the attention of countless people concerned about this matter was thus attracted.

Next came the release at the end of January 1999. Even though it was only shown in 20 theaters, and these theaters were very remote, it still got a box office of 2 million US dollars within five days. Think about the number of theaters, and then think about the box office. , such an astonishing ratio is really quite rare, and according to the feedback, these theaters are full of people every time, and almost no one leaves in the middle

Faced with this situation, Bosworth immediately started operating in all aspects. By the second week, the number of theaters had increased by 500, and the box office had jumped to 15 million. With better publicity, the film was better than the original version. The faster and better way to attract the public to the cinema, the box office is bound to get more than the original.

"Now, do you understand the importance of online publicity?" Don't skip words. Asked Adrian after calling the heads of the four major companies to the head office to introduce the film's achievements.

At the beginning, Bosworth was not optimistic about "The Blair Witch", even with Adrian's support - this has always been advocated by Adrian, don't be too superstitious about authority, and Bosworth's side Do your best. Although the performance of the current film has said everything, he still hopes that this style can continue and expand.

Of course, Adrian also took this opportunity to emphasize the importance of online promotion to everyone again, and regarded the Internet as a new type of media on the same level as traditional media, rather than attached to traditional media.
