Chapter 782: Opportunity Grows
The worst thing now is that I and she are starting to get busy, 21 is on the market a little early, the first single Dead And Gone was released very early, the promotion cycle is long, and things don't pile together, but I still have to go to school and prepare for the concert at the end of the year.
Her Daydream was only released in December, and her first single Fantasy has just been released, and the publicity cycle has been compressed very short, and there is a lot of pressure to hit the charts, and she also has to start preparing for a large-scale global tour throughout next year.
As a result, the two didn't have much time to meet, and she was still angry at herself for accosting Mira, and she didn't answer the phone, or she just talked about some serious things, and ignored all the sweet gags.
"Isn't the anger gone? Mimi, I've said I'm sorry countless times. ”
After being honest for a week, the voice has not fallen, and the phone has been hung up.
"What about this weekend? Still going to New York? Linda asked.
"Forget it, she said she was going to go to other places to run publicity." Song Ya sighed, "I feel that this time it is difficult, Linda." ”
"She'll be deflated if you just say a few words to Mira, but you do have to be a little more restrained lately." Linda gave a rare warning of a suggestive nature.
"I know, I know." Song Yalao's face flushed.
"There's been a lot of good news this week...... Yeremov and Dilay will come later, and maybe Alicia will come too. Linda continued to report back.
"This week, the various interest alliances of the United States and the DVD camp SD camp negotiated the results, and the DVD camp won unexpectedly, but the SD camp took a lot of advantage in various technical standards, and it can even be considered that it has lost its reputation but has gained real benefits. Sony and Philips are extremely unhappy......"
The first good news comes from DTS, which belongs to the SD camp, postponed its listing, and DTS, which the company has been hovering on the verge of bankruptcy, suddenly got major good news, the DVD camp did win, but the SD camp did not lose at all, and the surround sound format of DTS was successfully compatible with the new DVD standard. As a result, most of the market doubts are gone, and the listing plan can be restarted.
"Well, institutional investors will definitely grasp the actual situation, but ordinary investors will have a hard time distinguishing the standard details, they only know that the DVD camp wins, and DTS belongs to the SD camp, so in their eyes DTS stock is garbage."
Delay frowned at the temporary meeting and said: "Goldman Sachs estimates that after DTS is listed on the NASDAQ, the total market value will not exceed 300 million, so our diluted 3.2% of the shares are less than 10 million." ”
DTS's shares are in his hands at A+ Audio, and this price is too far from his expectations, "Goldman Sachs plans to list in early December, so we still have more than two months to go, APLUS You have to use your influence to help DTS preach to ordinary shareholders, and like Netscape's listing, Mr. Spielberg will also personally participate in the roadshow to help." ”
"Don't be depressed Delay, think about it before we thought DTS was going to go bankrupt? When this 10 million is picked up on the side of the road, isn't it okay? Song Ya smiled and comforted him, but since he only had such a little money, he wouldn't be as diligent as Netscape did that time, and Netscape's stock price was a hundred dollars, "I'll try my best to help, but you know, Spielberg has more shares in DTS than me, and he should have contributed more." ”
"He cherishes feathers, after all, he had a private deal with Himberg when he asked Universal Pictures to accept Jurassic Park for the DTS format." DeLay shook his head with a wry smile.
"The 0.2 percent of your 3.2 percent shares are high-voting B shares, and when DTS is listed, you can get 5 percent of the voting rights of a NASDAQ-listed company and a director."
Alicia, who was sitting far away, reminded that by the way, she invited credit for herself, a condition that she had won with great difficulty, "You don't have such a status in Netscape APLUS." ”
"I know, it's all thanks to you, Alicia." Song Ya winked at her with a smile.
Anyway, that's it, and by December, DTS will be part of a group of small and unobtrusive companies on the Nasdaq, and if there is another major benefit, it will be up to founder and CEO Terry Bilder to play new tricks.
There is also good news from Yeremov and Hollywood, where Marvel has agreed to cooperate.
"Fifteen years of ownership of Blade and related characters, 100 million investments, three films, a token knife of transfer money, they participate in the account sharing, and the periphery must also be launched in cooperation with us. Our husband-wife Katherine's KM Pictures each contributed half of the production cost, and the trilogy was all distributed by Universal, which is the contract details. ”
Yeremov happily pushed over a stack of papers, "Goodman and Hamlin's law firm have already reviewed it. ”
Now Goodman and Hamlin are in charge of their own A+ assets and rights company, Amerika Music Magazine, Louise reports, A+ Records, liquor, pedals, apparel and a series of other companies, Jimmy is in charge of A+ Ventures, and A+ Ventures has its own significant holdings in Netscape, Wanyan, Palm, and 3DFX.
Alicia's Flock & Argus Law Firm is responsible for the legal affairs of the Inner City Broadcasting Company, A+CN and A+ Audio, with DTS under the management of A+ Audio, as well as the synth rights library and the Amerika Music website.
A+ Assets & Copyrights manages A+ Records' records, including all the music copyrights of its own songs, as well as its own real estate, stocks and other large assets, and is also responsible for blood transfusions to Charities in Aunt Susie's name, where is her love is charity, and most of the donations to politicians also go from these two organizations.
A+ Audio and A+ Pedal also have several pieces of land in Sunnyvale, Silicon Valley, and A+ Audio has a much larger area in its hands.
"Hmm."
Song Ya carefully flipped through the documents, knowing the reason for the evil smile on Yeremov's face, according to this contract, if he and Catherine are willing, they can make the account Marvel not share a penny, and the initiative is completely on their side, just see how much the box office of the first part of Blade Warrior is, and whether the profit is worth turning against Marvel.
Marvel has its own film company, although it is not a complete Hollywood person, but it is not so unfeeling, it seems that it is indeed desperate, otherwise there is no other explanation for their willingness to bow their heads and sign this kind of contract.
"It's done well, since the contract stipulates that the first part will be released before the end of 96, then the work of finding a director, script, and casting must be started as soon as possible." Song Ya said approvingly.
"Don't worry, boss."
Yeremov took the opportunity to pat himself on the back, "Netscape and Dow's success have greatly helped you to make a name for yourself around the world, as well as dancing my life project, I have been feeling this more and more recently, and now there are some good opportunities that we don't need to chase hard, it runs over on its own long legs." ”
"Hahaha." Everyone in attendance laughed.
"Oh yes, there's one more thing, can you say it privately APLUS?" Alicia asked after the meeting.
"Yes."
At the same time in Los Angeles, Charlise Theron was lying in her room with her fat assistant watching TV, "Don't put on a bad face all day, you're going to New York to start shooting Spike Lee's movie, maybe you can get Best Supporting Actress at some European film award, I've read the script, you have a lot of lines, and your appearance time is definitely not low." ”
The fat assistant said while stuffing potato chips into his mouth: "Study the script more, don't mess up, this is a good opportunity." ”
"Hmm."
She said yes lazily, her mind full of ridiculous images of that night with APLUS, and Phiggy, and Alan Punpai, and Amy Acker......
She knew what she was angry about, she had gone from resisting over the years, to accepting, and then to liking APLUS, and she didn't expect anything, but she didn't expect the other party to treat herself completely as a flesh and blood that could be played with at will, although in just a few days, she gave herself a car, necklace and other small things worth two or three hundred thousand dollars.
This left her disappointed and sad.
That's when the phone rang, "Charis! His main agent was very excited, "There is good news again, the unstoppable miracle crew sent me an invitation to audition, the second female!" There are a lot of scenes, and they want you to participate by name! Haha, the number six call girl, an unstoppable miracle, plus the legend that Yeremov's side is about to settle the Blade Warrior project...... Ninety-six years! Ninety-six Charis, it's you, no, it must be the year of our take-off! ”
"An unstoppable miracle? What movie? Is it related to A+ Pictures? ”
Charlisy was also very happy to be said, but after thinking about it, APLUS was completely manipulating herself by doing this, but she couldn't resist it at all, no way, she wanted to be popular, it seemed that kind of multiplayer game......
"It doesn't matter! Haven't you heard? It is the directorial debut of superstar Tom Hanks, and it has been spread all over Hollywood, and he wants to act and direct! The agent replied: "This drama is very important to him, very important!" Haha, lucky girl, there is a time and opportunity to come quietly with such long feet. ”
"Oh?"
Charlise sat up suddenly, "He named me to audition?" ”
"Well, I don't know if he appointed it himself, but the casting director seems to like you."
"You got my new MV clip from APLUS for us to see?" Charlise asked.
"No, A+ didn't give me that kind of thing, the MV you participated in was kept strictly secret before it was released, I just submitted a copy of your previous regular resume, oh yes, there is a self-introduction video when you auditioned for Want to Want Me's MV."
"That's all?"
"That's all."
"Did Mr. Yeremov help behind his back?"
"No, how could it be, this is a major turning point in Tom Hanks' career path, he can't accept the invitation, he must find the most suitable actor! You have a great chance, you are so beautiful, the second female role is planned according to Monroe, it must be very suitable for you, absolutely! ”
The agent shouted excitedly, "Hurry up and prepare, their crew arranged for you to start from the second round, and I will send you the audition materials immediately, right away, I am about to go out, and I will be there soon!" ”
"So, if I insist on it, I don't have to ......," Charlisy took the receiver, a little stupid for a moment.
