After the secretary left, McCarmon said with some annoyance, "Does that mean we may invest hundreds of millions of dollars and only to find that potential customers are gone?"

Before they decided to compete with Link for the Fox New Town project, they would of course have studied the situation around Fox.

Beaver is a very small town, but so is Fox.

The Focus is more than a dozen miles closer to the two factories than the Furby Fox, but for those with cars, a dozen miles away is a dozen minutes drive at most on a road without traffic jams.

It's a half-hour drive to work, and then you can buy a house that is much cheaper than the normal price. Which one to choose, is there still a need to consider for the working class?

Astoria also said in a deep voice: "I checked the map, the Olympic National Park does not cover Beaver Town, and there is indeed a river valley near Beaver Town with open land, which means that he can indeed buy land in Beaver." He could even buy small farms there. ”

McCammon had also wanted to stop Link through the authorities. That kind of thing, their company can't do it, but Houghton can.

However, when he heard Astoria's words, he felt that through the official veto, he might be able to prevent Beaver from adding a large area of urban construction land. However, it was not possible to veto Link's purchase of the original private land.

He also heard Astoria say, "And there is a lot of open space on the edge of Link's Ozette farm, especially near the Westward factory. If he really wants to provide cheap housing for factory employees, he can even build residential areas inside the farm. ”

McCarmon was silent for a moment. He couldn't think of a suitable solution for a moment, so he said, "You keep a close eye on how things go." Let me know if anything changes!" he needed time to think about how to deal with Link's unconventional routine.

Astoria heard what he meant to evict and stood up, but before turning to leave, he reminded, "There's no chance we're going to work with Link Hans." I think we need to decide as soon as possible whether or not to pay the land purchase price on time. ”

According to the rules of the auction, they have not been able to actually take the land. They pay the rest within a week to sign the contract. Their company has paid a 10% deposit, and if it is paid in full on time, the land will belong to their company, and if they do not pay, then the land will be voluntarily abandoned and the deposit will be confiscated by Fox.

They do have to consider whether the loss is greater after taking the land or the loss is greater if the bid is abandoned. If the house can't be sold, even if they don't have to pay liquidated damages, even if the house is placed there, it will also cost a lot of money.

After learning that Link had revealed the affordable housing plans to the workers, Astoria didn't think it was possible to work with them. He doesn't think it's money that Link lacks right now. A rich man like Link will never go back on what he says unless he is forced to do so.

McCammon didn't think about working with Link either. He was thinking about how to stop Link from getting the land in Beaver. He will also consider Astoria's proposal, but it is still a few days away.

Their troubles certainly don't bother Link.

Link had already arrived at West Hollywood Media by this time. Although he is a first-time employee, a staff member who doesn't even know who the real boss is is is definitely not a good employee. West Hollywood doesn't have employees like that. He entered the company, of course, all the way to Catherine's office.

"Boss?" Catherine rose from her seat in surprise when she saw that it was him who opened the door and came in. "I didn't know you were going to be there early!"

"It was fine at the hotel. I came twenty minutes early. Link went straight to his office desk and sat down. "I came to you today mainly to ask for your opinion on one thing. ”

He Douglas handed over the information he had just gathered to her and said, "This is the material of a Chinese cable TV station, you can take a look." I wonder if it's worth acquiring. ”

"You're planning to get into television?" said Catherine, who had taken the information, but didn't read it right away. "I need to make it clear that I'm not very familiar with the operation of a television station. ”

"It's better than I am. If you have trusted friends, you can also consult them. ”

Catherine did have friends like that.

"Okay. Catherine put the information in a drawer and said. "Maybe I can get Amanda some advice. You know, she worked at CNN for a while. ”

"Yes. Link said with a deep groan and a nod. "I've heard from outsiders that the company is doing a great job. Looks like you're doing a great job!"

"I want to thank you for your support!" Although Link did not inject any more capital after the acquisition of the company, Link's complete decentralization was the greatest support for her. "You're coming to the company for the first time, if you have the time. I'll show you around. ”

Link smiled and said, "Okay." I think I should meet with the staff as well. ”

Then she arranged a meeting to introduce the company's top management to Link, and then took him to visit various departments.

Link saw that the time was almost and left.

When Catherine sent him out of the company, he said, "The information I gave you just now, you have time to study it as soon as possible." I need your opinion. ”

“OK！”

He asked the Nolan brothers to meet with Martin at his villa in Beaver Hills. By the time he arrived, the Nolan brothers had arrived. He smiled and apologized, "I'm sorry I'm late!"

"No," Martin said, "You're ahead of schedule—" he said, looking at his watch. "More than four minutes. ”

Link smiled and gave him a square wooden box and said, "This is this year's award-winning queen and fire cloud, which is not yet available in the market." ”

Martin took it and laughed and said, "This gift is amazing! ”

Christopher smiled and said, "It's true that we came early. He gave Link a hug and said. "You know, I've been on the verge of getting nervous lately from Iwo Jima. ”

"Speaking of which, you haven't finished the later stages of Iwo Jima?"

"It's mainly editing, and the opinions of the investors are always at odds with mine. Christopher said helplessly. "So, I prefer to make movies that I invest in. ”

Link laughs and says, "If you have a good project, be sure to tell me." Maybe I'll get a piece of the pie. ”

As he spoke, he hugged Jonathan again and said, "Jonathan, have you done anything lately?"

Although Jonathan has successfully transformed into a director, no one will forget that he is also a well-known science fiction screenwriter.

Jonathan smiled and patted Link on the back.

Link authorized and invested him to shoot "Las Vegas God of Gamblers", which allowed him to successfully transform into a director, and he should be grateful to Link.

After he let go of Link, he smiled and said, "Christopher is also urging the draft." But I can't think of any good ideas for the time being. ”

"Do you have any projects now?"

"Not yet!" "Big-budget movies are not his turn to be directors, and he is not interested in too small productions. And the screenwriter is not inspired for the time being. "Now I'm studying with Christopher's films. ”

Martin had already opened a bottle of wine, then came over with a couple of glasses and said, "Maybe we should sit down and taste the fire clouds of the new season." ”

After pouring four glasses, he couldn't wait to pick up one of them. After shaking it for a while, I sniffed it, tasted it again, and then exclaimed for a long time: "Sure enough, it's a full score of red wine." The taste is still perfect, and there is an indescribable taste more than the previous batch of Huoyun. ”

Jonathan also tasted the wine, and said, "The last batch was like an incendiary bomb, and it exploded rapidly in the throat. And this batch is like a pile of dry pine wood, which is lit after the entrance, and the flames slowly turn into a raging fire, which can burn your soul. ”

"Sure enough, it's a science fiction story. Imagination is abundant! But that's exactly what it feels like. Martin said with a smile. He turned to Link again. "Link, you're not here to just treat us to a beautiful bar!"

Christopher also smiled and said, "Or maybe there are big plans again?"

Link shook his glass and smiled, "I do have a big plan. I wanted to invest in a werewolf-themed film. But I don't have a script yet, and I can't think of a suitable director. ”

Hearing his thoughts, Christopher frowned and said, "Link, I'm going to warn you. The "Twilight" series is a success, and although it has been several years since the last film, fans will still be able to compare it if you are going to make a werewolf movie. So I don't think the werewolf genre has the best time to recover. ”

For movie fans, if you watch too much of a theme, it is easy to cause aesthetic fatigue. Therefore, film companies usually let a certain theme go dormant when it is almost filmed, and when a new batch of fans appears, and the old fans gradually forget the classics of the past, they will revive those dormant themes again. It's easier to get a good box office that makes the movie that way.

Link listened to him say that, and there was a little hesitation in his heart. But it immediately occurred to him that it would take at least a year or two to run the program, if not longer. That's nearly a decade, and a new batch of fans should also grow up.

He laughed and talked about his plans to build a werewolf theme park on Fox. It also shows that the film project is to market that park.

Hearing his plan, Christopher was a little stunned, Jonathan was dumbfounded, and Martin was stunned for a moment and laughed.

Martin laughed and said, "I'm sorry Link, but it's the first time I've heard of someone making a movie specifically for something. I've only heard of movies that go viral and then set up a park on the set of the movie. For example, 'Jurassic Park' and Dinis Land. ”

Link smiled, took a sip of wine, and said lightly: "The order is not the key, the key is the result! As long as the movie can make money, even if it fails to achieve the publicity effect." The most I could do was a strategic failure, but I was still able to win tactically. ”

Christopher shook his head and said, "Link, I think you should know that no one can guarantee that a movie will sell well until it is released. ”

"So, I'm asking you for help. I need a good director, a good producer and a good group of actors. Maybe you can recommend some to me. And of course, a good script. ”
