By the end of October, the acquisition of Dick Clark Television Production Company had been basically completed, and everything else had been completed, except for some follow-up procedures with the exchange.

Towne Pictures paid $43 million to take the company private.

Dick Clark Television Production Company is not large, but it was born in a very fortunate era, at that time, except for the Oscars and Gra, the other major award shows had just been created and were in urgent need of foreign aid.

Dick Clark successfully won the production rights of almost all major award ceremonies in North America except for the Oscars and Grammys!

But Donn doesn't like the name of this company, Dick Clark?

In Don's mind, there can only be one name in his group industry, and that is Done Walker!

However, Donn's idea of changing his name was seriously rejected by Bill McNick, and it was not negotiable.

What are you kidding, running a company is not a game, you must not act arbitrarily because of personal preferences, you must respect the market!

Dick Clark TV Production Company was privatized by Down Pictures and became its subsidiary, which is true, but TV producer Dick Clark is still alive!

This guy is a big guy in the TV field!

This year, he also came up with a new project, every year on Chinese New Year's Eve, he wants to hold a grand Chinese New Year's Eve party in Times Square in New York!

The Super Bowl is just the nominal American Spring Festival Gala, this is the real American Spring Festival Gala!

Moreover, the production copyright of this New Year's Eve concert also belongs to Dick Clarke.

Don't look at this company, which has nothing to do with Dick Clark himself, but after all, this is the company he founded back then, and a large part of the company's employees are his old subordinates.

If Donn changes the name of this company, won't he turn his face with Mr. Dick Clark?

Don heard Bill McNick's explanation and dismissed the idea of changing his name.

After the acquisition of this TV production company, Donn still wants to plan a large-scale music reality show immediately, and he must be indispensable to help a big guy like Dick Clark, and he can't afford to offend.

It was late at night.

Donn also works in his study, using a modified encrypted version of an Apple notebook given to him by Steve Jobs to write copy.

Nicole Kidman is dressed in a dressing gown, and during Natalie's absence, she stayed in Donn's presidential suite. Of course, even if Natalie comes, she will only sleep in the lady's room and will not move out at all.

She walked over lightly, sat down beside Donn, and said softly, "It's late, it's time to rest." ”

Facing Donne, she always had a strange feeling in her heart.

This guy is young, and he has already made earth-shattering achievements in his career, and he is a super-rich person on the Forbes rich list.

But even so, Donn's enthusiasm for work is still undiminished, he has to manage the huge Don Pictures, and he has to deal with the endless financing projects of Don Capital, and even ...... I haven't forgotten my old job of making movies, and I have to shoot a movie myself every year!

That's not all, in the process of filming the movie, he is also very busy, there are a lot of things to deal with, and even have to write a new script.

Such a hard-working, such an excellent man, even if he has a little flaw, as a woman, he really can't bear to blame.

Maybe......

That's why Natalie Portman would accommodate him, right?

Don heard her voice and looked at the time, "Oh, it's already twelve o'clock!"

Nicole Kidman said gently, "Yes, work is important, but you should also pay attention to rest." It's another weekend tomorrow, didn't you say you're flying back to Los Angeles with important work?"

Men at work are the most attractive.

At this time, Nicole Kidman was as virtuous and gentle as a little woman.

Donn stretched, "Yes, the filming of "The Chronicles of Narnia" is over, and the crew has flown back to Los Angeles. ”

"Aren't you a named producer of this movie?" Nicole's beautiful eyes flashed with light, a little strange.

Don said: "Of course, I'm not focusing on the Chronicles of Narnia project, with Warner staring at it, there is no problem! I mainly met with David Heyman, who is a partner of Downe Pictures and the producer of The Chronicles of Narnia. ”

Nicole Kidman bit her lip, "Can I know?"

Tang En was amused by her cute appearance, held her beautiful and delicate face, kissed her red lips, and smiled: "Of course you can, and you are not an outsider." You know, the Harry Potter book is on fire, and I'm going to start this movie project. ”

"Harry Potter?"

Nicole Kidman's eyes lit up, this is definitely a super big project!

What's more, the book is now so famous that it has become a national hit, and it has been in the top 10 of the New York Times bestseller list for three consecutive months.

Don En shook his head, "You don't have to think about this project, I signed an agreement when I bought the copyright, and the actor can only use the British, and the female writer is a madman." ”

Now that Donn has finished Warner Bros., he can rest assured that he can boldly launch the "Harry Potter" project.

According to his calculations, starting now, the casting work will start immediately, and it will take 8-9 months to complete the preliminary preparations. Then next summer, I will use the summer vacation to gather the young actors and officially start filming.

In the previous life, the casting of the "Harry Potter" project started in 1999, and the Christmas file in 2001 was released worldwide.

Because of Warner's factors, Don delayed the start of the project for a whole year, and the group of young actors who once appeared may have changed their fate.

Especially Emma Watson, can she still move towards the position of Hollywood A-list actress in the future?

Unknown.

But Emma Watson is extremely good, she is one of the few stars in Hollywood who has a strong thinking logic and can attend academic conferences. She has outstanding ability, even if she loses the opportunity to perform, she must be able to make a name for herself in other fields in the future, right?

"Oh. Nicole Kidman's face was calm, and she glanced at Donn's computer, "So...... Are you writing a Harry Potter script?"

Tang En smiled dumbly, "I don't have to participate in such a popular book, just name a producer and let them do it." ”

"You're not writing a script, so what are you writing?" Nicole Kidman was a little surprised, thinking of some rumors, and looked at him with a smile, "You can't be writing, right?"

"What, how can I have that energy?" Don glanced at him and yawned, "It's a reality show planner. ”

"Reality TV?"

Nicole Kidman was even more surprised.

Don smiled, "That's right, reality show! Hehe, you have to keep it a secret." This will be the originator of talent reality shows in the world, and I will name it "American Idol"!"

The real originator of the draft is the reality show "Pop Idol" in the United Kingdom in 2001, which became popular in Europe and the United States.

After Americans saw it, they immediately copied it, and the following year they came up with an "American Idol", which was more refined in production and more intense in schedule, and immediately became the world's No. 1 reality show, with influence all over the world.

Since then, a wave of talent reality shows has been set off in various countries around the world.

"American Idol" in the most popular period, how far can it go?

The ratings are as high as 41 million household users, surpassing the Grammys and comparable to the Oscars!

Down Pictures has just completed the acquisition of Dick Clark Television Productions, and the countless "whimsical ideas" in Donn's mind have finally come to use.

And this time period is very appropriate, and it is reasonable to attack and seize the biggest head of the reality show market!

Nicole Kidman didn't understand the talent show, but she also knew that Don was very big, so she was really speechless, and said with a wry smile: "Don En, you are really amazing! I am like you, I just came to Hollywood, and my eyes are dark, looking for a breakthrough in my career, but you have already made amazing achievements in many fields......

Don shaved the bridge of her nose and smiled, "What do you compare to me? I'm a man, you're a woman, can you be the same?"

Nicole frowned, "How is it different?"

Tang En closed the computer, got up and hugged her in his arms, and strode towards the bedroom, "Hehe, women, the breakthrough in your career is men." ”

Nicole Kidman hooked his neck tightly and sighed faintly, "Yes, feminism? ”

This surprised Donn, "Can you figure this out? Why do you always resist me?"

"When did I resist you?"

"Then I can invite other female companions to join in?"

"Dreaming!"

Nicole Kidman bit his chest angrily, "This is the bottom line!"
