"Well, the problem with ESPN is that these management, and if you don't get rid of them, there's no way to bring it back to life. Bayless, they were rude, not at my instigation, but at the suggestion of Hiss. ABC outbid Santino by 30 million, but ESPN had to sell to a lower one, and Heath was very afraid of Santino, but he would definitely get you into a little trouble. As for me, I'm ready to resign, how can I make one more enemy, and it's still a young big man like you? ”

The grandson, who was standing in front of the fire, was secretly frightened, and Shantino was really a ******** banker, and it was right not to cooperate with him. Damn, this guy is powerful enough to snatch meat from ABC's mouth, and the price is lower than others.

"OK, George, that's over, let's talk about ESPN?"

George Bodenheimer looked at his watch, pointed to his head again, and said with a smile: "Tomorrow, we have to talk after nine o'clock in the morning, and if we talk now, I am not prepared at all." You advocate keeping the entertainment channel, many things have to be reconsidered, and you want to think about it for a night in your study. ”

"OK", Sun Ziming hugged George, and said sincerely: "George, I'm not Hiss, I just care if the boat can get where I want to go, as for how the ship is driven, that's the captain's business." ”

"Thank you, Boss, for your trust, the ship will set sail soon."

After thinking for a moment, George reminded in a low voice: "Boss, I don't know what deal you have with Sandino, but it's better to be careful, that person is too scary." ”

Sun Ziming gratefully patted George on the shoulder and said in a low voice: "I know, he wanted to take a stake in my film company, so I refused." Don't worry, he helped me get ESPN because he and his friend owe me a favor. ”

"That's good, the kind of people they don't like to owe favors the most."

Sun Ziming and the others left the study, leaving George alone to think. Walking to the side of the stairs, hearing the sound of playing cards downstairs, Sun Ziming suddenly pushed open a guest room next to him, Claudia's face turned red, and she said in a low voice: "Boss, I'm not very convenient today, or I"

"What do you think?" Sun Ziming interrupted Claudia, and seeing her shyness, he couldn't help but touch her plump breasts and buttocks a few times.

"Remember Taylor? Let her come to me as much as possible, I wonder if the heads of departments proposed by George are all qualified. ”

Claudia was stunned, and Sun Ziming explained in a low voice, "Baby, don't trust anyone lightly in the mall. It's better to be more prepared than to be prepared at all when something happens, OK? ”

"OK, it's tomorrow the Bulls vs. Clippers game, and they're in Los Angeles. I invited her to the party, I saw her just now, and she should still be playing cards with them. ”

Sun Ziming patted Claudia's round and straight ass with satisfaction, and praised: "OK, well done!" Let's talk to a couple of directors first. ”

"Boss, I'm going to get Wen Jiàn."

The two went downstairs one after the other, and Chris and the others stopped playing cards, but sat at the table and didn't move, calling casually, "Boss".

"BOSS", Taylor Elizabeth subconsciously stood up, and when he saw that the others did not stand up, he didn't know whether to stand or sit back for a while.

"Taylor? It just so happens that the things you prepared last time were ready? ”

Taylor hurriedly agreed, "Ready, do you want it now?" ”

Sun Ziming walked to the table, pulled out a chair and sat down at random, "OK, you go to Claudia's study on the third floor now and wait for me, I'll talk to you again when the talk is over." ”

"OK", Taylor asked for the location of the study, and went upstairs with his bag.

When the sound of Taylor's high heels could not be heard and the table was cleaned up, Betty was about to pull Xu Qing, who was not familiar with the world, upstairs, Sun Ziming waved his hand and said, "It's okay, Betty, you can listen too." You're an assistant to Dapeng with an MBA (Master of Business Administration) at Harvard, and you're a bit of a talent. ”

"Thank you, Boss", Betty threw down Xu Qing, who was still drinking red wine on the sofa, and moved a chair to sit behind Jiang Peng.

Sun Ziming lit a 'Great China' by himself, threw the cigarette case and lighter on the table, and motioned for everyone to feel free, "There are two main things to keep everyone here today. Claudia, give the text to Chris Columbus. ”

Claudia handed the signed share transfer agreement to Chris Columbus, and Sun Ziming took the lead in applauding: "Mr. Chris Columbus, we will be partners in the future." ”

In the applause, Chris Columbus propped himself up in a wheelchair and struggled to stand up, even Jiang Peng next to him refused to help him. Ignoring Sun Ziming's resistance, Chris bowed deeply and said movingly: "Boss, you will be your loyal follower in the future!" ”

Sun Ziming detoured to Chris? Columbus hugged him and said in a deep voice: "NO, we will be partners in the future, and we will all become big names in Hollywood!" ”

"Thinkyou, it's the honor of my life to be your partner!"

When the loud but excited applause stopped, Sun Ziming continued to smile: "Chris will set up his own film studio, and the company will invest him $10 million in 49% of the shares, and his 10 million shares will be deducted from the proceeds of future films." ”

The great director of the future, Frank Derabont, excitedly took the lead in applauding, not only for his friend, but also for his bright future.

"OK, OK, let's move on to the second thing."

Sun Ziming also puffed up a few times before signaling everyone to stop and continued: "I want to reiterate one point here, I hope that the company will become a giant in Hollywood and a famous film company in the world in the future, this is my ideal, and I hope to become everyone's ideal. Because the company will belong to everyone in the future, I just need to concentrate power for the time being! ”

The room was quiet, and even Xu Qing, who was nesting on the sofa, sat up unconsciously.

"The company needs a lot of good directors and screenwriters so that we can make more good films, instead of just producing one or two films a year. I hate CAA's arrogant and unreasonable cooperation method, everyone is familiar with the company's regulations, and everyone should know the advantages and disadvantages of the two cooperation models. So when you go to hire people, we only welcome directors and screenwriters who don't want to be in a brokerage company, the kind of people who just want to get a high salary and don't want to take risks, our company would rather not ......"

Sun Ziming talked for seven or eight minutes before he stopped to drink water, "Do you have any opinions?" ”

Everyone is familiar with the company's regulations, in fact, it cuts out a large part of the interests of shareholders and investors of other film companies, and gives all the 10% of the brokerage company's commission to directors and screenwriters. The company has the accurate eye of the boss to pick scripts, and it will naturally win a lot better than other companies, which is the main reason why Frank and his family left the independent film company and went to light and shadow.

"I have"

Frank raised his hand and said: "Boss, your method is good, it can ensure the interests of most people, but some movies need to use stars, and it is difficult for ordinary actors to have that acting skills." ”

Liu Weiqiang immediately disagreed: "Frank, there is no acting skills that can be honed on the set, when we were filming "Shawshank", didn't Clancy Brown have no acting skills? After filming "Shawshank", his acting skills are not bad, as long as the director is patient on the set, there are no actors who can't be sharpened. ”

"No, it's impossible for a director to spend that much time, that will increase the cost and time of production."

Chris Columbus smiled, "Frank, you're on the wrong side." Compared with the millions of salaries of star actors, the cost and time are negligible. However, boss, not every actor is like Swift, what if our popular actors jump to CAA and their side? ”

Sun Ziming looked at Chris Swift, who was holding a cigarette, "Swift, tell me why you are willing to sign three more?" ”

"Me?" Swift scratched his bald head, "CAA promised to help me get more than three million in salary, but after the release of "Rush Hour 1", the boss gave me a bonus of two million and allowed me to invest $500,000 in "Rush Hour 2". Boss and company are so good to me, why should I go to CAA? Other companies don't reward actors extra after making a lot of money in movies, they are all misers who pick the door! ”

Except for Sun Ziming, Jiang Peng, and Liu Weiqiang in the house, even Chris didn't know about these things. This black young man looks rough, but in fact, he understands it very well in his heart, and even his tone is extremely tight.

Jiang Peng saw that everyone looked at Sun Ziming in shock, and explained jokingly: "Now everyone knows the boss's style, right?" He said that the future company is everyone's, then it will definitely be everyone's! Everyone doesn't know because everyone is not a shareholder, so they haven't reported it to everyone. Swift, the company's reward is not a shady thing, you don't need to keep it a secret. ”

“OK”

With Chris's precedent, the actor can be prosecuted for defecting to CAA and other three major agencies after becoming popular, and Chris Columbus and they can be relieved.

Sun Ziming thought for a while, threw out another bait and said: "OK, I still remember one thing, everyone knows about my financial investment, right?" When you invite someone, you can also talk about it, my vision is very accurate. ”

As soon as this matter was mentioned, everyone's eyes lit up, how Sun Ziming gambled on the Japanese stock market and the Sino-Iraqi War, it was like a legend of wealth.

"Don't, don't look at me like this, even if I help you take care of your finances, there is a quota. I have no problem losing hundreds of millions, but if you lose millions, you will immediately go bankrupt. That can only be used as an investment channel, not as a bet on your wealth. Nothing else, right? OK, Betty, I want you to go to ESPN as a deputy general manager and director of finance, with an annual salary of $400,000 plus dividends, what do you think? ”

Yes? Betty, a white young woman, was stunned, and pointed to her nose for a long time and said, "Boss, I have never held such a high position." ”

Sun Ziming smiled and teased: "Dapeng hasn't been the general manager yet, isn't it doing a good job now?" At ESPN, I'll give full authority to George Bodenheimer, but I'll always have to send my own people to the director of finance and human resources, right? Rest assured, ESPN's headquarters will be moving to Los Angeles and won't keep you in Connecticut for long. ”

"OK, thank you boss", the white girl is assertive, and she agreed without even asking Jiang Peng's opinion.

Jiang Peng saw Sun Ziming looking at him, and hurriedly said: "Brother Ming, this is not domestic, Betty also has her own career." If I hadn't found a suitable position, I wouldn't have made her my assistant. ”

"Alright, that's it. If you don't want to go back, find your own room to rest, and I'll take care of ESPN's affairs. ”

As soon as Sun Ziming left, a group of people started playing cards again, today is the weekend and there is no need to go to work, and something good happens, how can you still have the heart to sleep? Betty was not interested in the game, and still went to chat with Xu Qing, who couldn't sleep by the fireplace, and she was also sleepless. The two girls chatted together, Xu Qing chatted without a pair, and after chatting for a while, he excused himself to be sleepy and went to sleep by himself.

Xu Qing, who has always been slow to respond to human feelings, suddenly woke up when he saw Chris's big black man slamming the door fiercely and Lu Huiguang's fierce look, and everyone was so anxious that they suddenly woke up.

Sun Ziming is the real host, and he just lives here with Sister Hong's face. If you don't have Sister Hong's face, don't say that you can't live in such a luxurious manor, and even those people downstairs won't look at you more, let alone Claudia and Betty took good care of you in the past.

Returning to the guest room where he lived, thinking about what he saw today, what he heard downstairs just now, and Sun Ziming's care for him, and comparing his days in Beiping, Xu Qing suddenly felt that this was like a dream.

A neat but old alley, a luxurious Beverly manor, an old Mercedes borrowed by her boyfriend, a luxury car used casually in the garage downstairs, a movie for 4,200 yuan, a bottle of red wine for $450, a boyfriend begging for a role, and the people downstairs can decide who will star in ......the movie.

Xu Qing felt that his brain was messed up, and the gap between the two was too big to be compared. Xu Qing, who was in a trance, changed into pajamas and lay on the bed for a long time unable to fall asleep, his mind was full of this kind of thing.

Xu Qing has a good background and never worries about trivial things in life, so it can be said that he has been pampered since he was a child, and he does not have much pursuit of his career. However, after a few months in the United States, I couldn't help but have an illusion when I watched movies and attended cocktail parties behind Sun Ziming, and shook hands with big stars who could only appear in internal movies before. This kind of luxurious and high-profile life is what he should live, but how he can live this life, Xu Qing doesn't know yet.

However, Xu Qing knew one thing, and it was reasonable for his family to object to being with Wang Zhiwen. If you compare Wang Zhiwen with the few downstairs, his boyfriend's poor talent can be ignored, not to mention a big man like Sun Ziming.

Ay? How can I compare Zhiwen with Director Sun? Director Sun is a man who has a wife and children!

Xu Qing suddenly covered his hot face with the quilt and hid in the comfortable and smooth silk quilt, but he couldn't help but guess what Sun Ziming was talking about with the beautiful reporter in the study.

Just like Xu Qing, the future goddess, began to subconsciously empathize with her in the face of wealth, power, and fame, in Claudia's study, the beautiful reporter was also looking at her grandson who was flipping through the plan.
