Chapter 510: What About Hotel Rooms? What about the red sofa?
Hideki Hanyu's Rolls-Royce is on the streets of Hollywood, and his destination is De Laurentiis Entertainment.
Next to him, sat Emmanuel Bea, who was in a languishing state.
The scumbag was naturally satisfied last night, and he was happy.
But Emmanuel Bea was really tired.
But even if Emmanuel Beais is like this, she still hugs the scumbag and keeps talking, expressing her love and admiration for the scumbag.
Hideki Hanyu could see that this woman wanted to maintain a relationship with him.
But in his heart, he didn't mean that at all.
European actresses, especially French actresses, are basically artists per capita, and they know everything.
Anyone who knows something about the European film industry, starting from Isabelle Adjani and Isabelle Huppert, to this Emmanuel Bea, and later Sophie Marceau and Eva Green......
All of them pursue so-called "art".
That's really how beautiful it is, and how big the scale is on the screen.
For example, Emmanuel Bea beside him.
The movie "Ganquan Manon", which won the CΓ©sar Award at the beginning of the year, is really ......
Gee! Let's go see for ourselves.
Even though Emmanuel Bea is nearly fifty years old, he still made "The Beginning of the End", which exploded in scale.
It is said that because Emmanuel Bea and actor Michael Cohen are a couple, they are all filmed with real guns, showing the audience what real art is without reservation.
Although Hideki Hanyu is this scumbag, he still has bottom-line requirements for women.
Therefore, a woman like Emmanuel Bea, taking advantage of the girl's young body and good figure, everyone is happy, fair trade, and there is no need to be serious.
Therefore, no matter what Emmanuel Bea says, the scumbag is always perfunctory.
He wouldn't break his promise before, but there's no need to go any further.
So when the car arrived at the door of De Laurentiis Entertainment, Hideki Hanyu was the first to get out of the car.
Emmanuel Bea looked at the back of the scumbag and realized Hideki Hanyu's attitude.
Obviously, the rich man didn't take a fancy to her.
But this is also normal, they know from the moment they pay in front of the camera that their future life and a certain class have been drawn.
Emmanuel Bea is just going to give it a try, maybe Hideki Hanyu is different from those old money in Europe and the United States, after all, judging from last night's performance, Hideki Hanyu still likes her very much.
But now it seems that the rich everywhere are the same.
This young super-rich man is not the kind of man who will be captured by beauty and carried away by sweet words.
Although she was silently rejected, Emmanuel Bea felt that it was okay to do this, and there was no need to hope for the impossible in the future, she just needed to work hard to please the other party and change the district to help her.
At least in Emmanuel Bea's opinion, Hideki Hanyu was a very good man, handsome, strong, gentle and considerate, and willing to keep his promises.
Hideki Hanyu has agreed, and will take her with him when he goes to Europe next, and arrange for her to be the European spokesperson for the new "Star Language" collection of Onirique jewelry.
Just this harvest, she didn't please Hanyu Hideki in vain.
At least it's a lot better than most bastards who only write blank checks.
β¦β¦
Hideki Hanyu, who was walking in front, naturally didn't know what Emmanuel Bea was thinking behind him.
As for the identity of the spokesperson, he didn't think there was anything inappropriate.
After the box office failure of "Angels in the World" in another time and space, Emmanuel Bea's entry into Hollywood was temporarily interrupted, but in Europe, he is still the muse of many men.
Historically, after Bernard Arnault and AmΓ©rica's Razard Bank acquired LVMH, Emmanuel Bea has been the European spokesperson for Dior for several years.
The choice of Emmanuel Bea's new collection of "Star Language" jewelry for Onirique Jewelry is definitely a win-win for Hideki Hanyu.
"Mr. Hanyu, welcome to DeLaurentiis Entertainment!"
As soon as Hideki Hanyu walked into the entrance of the company, Dino De Laurentiis, who had been waiting for a long time, warmly opened his arms to greet him.
Hideki Hanyu did as the locals did and hugged each other.
Then Dino DeLaurentiis introduced his wife and children to Hideki Hanyu.
This family is rooted in the film and television industry, whether it is a wife or children, all of them are now engaged in related industries.
And the main reason why Dino DeLaurentiis is so enthusiastic is that he has realized that DeLaurentiis Entertainment is in a bad situation right now.
Of course, he is not the only company that is in a bad situation in Hollywood today.
The change of fashion trends and the rise in production costs have made it difficult for many small production companies to operate.
Dino DeLaurentiis is also planning ahead.
Establish a good relationship with Hideki Hanyu, a top rich man, and if there are new projects at that time, it is better to continue to attract investment.
Of course, there is another premise, that is, the results of "Angels in the World" this time cannot be too bad.
Otherwise, not only will his own company be finished, but Hideki Hanyu, who has lost money, will not have a good face for him.
Thinking of this, Dino DeLaurentiis said to Hideki Hanyu, "Mr. Hanyu is coming to my company for the first time, so let me show you around it first." β
"It's fine." Hideki Hanyu readily agreed.
Next, Hideki Hanyu took a spin at De Laurentiis Entertainment.
Now it seems that Dino DeLaurentiis's company is still quite profound, and it has also left many familiar works in film history.
And Dino DeLaurentiis himself, whether in Europe or America, can be called a great filmmaker.
But it's a pity that if the times want to abandon a person, they won't care about this person's resume, and they won't give this person any time to prepare.
At the end of the visit, Dino DeLaurentiis saw that the time was almost there, and invited Hideki Hanyu into the screening room to watch the finished "Angels in the World".
At this time, in the screening hall, in addition to the staff related to publicity and distribution.
The main creators of the movie are basically here.
In the entire creative lineup, in addition to Emmanuel Bea, who is as beautiful as an angel, Phoebe Kates in a red suspender skirt, and Tom McLocklin, a director who looks like a rock singer, are all very eye-catching.
Then, it's more than an hour to watch the movie.
What should Hideki Hanyu say?
It should be said that except for the beginning of the film, when there is more of the opening of the feather floating to the sky from Cloud Pictures, this "Angel in the World" is the same as the original.
Like another time and space, the deepest impression left on him by this movie was Emmanuel Bea's beauty, and then there was nothing.
I can't say that I am not good enough, I can only say that I am too mediocre and too old-fashioned.
"Mr. Hanyu, what do you think?"
As the movie ended, Dino De Laurentiis immediately came up to ask.
"Mr. Dino, I'm not a professional film critic, but I'm not bad as an audience. β
He said and looked at Emmanuel Bea, "And Emmanuel is really beautiful, I believe that no man would refuse such an angel." β
"Thank you, sir, for the compliment." Emmanuel Bea smiled sweetly back.
The reason why Hanyu Hideki said this was to divert his attention, after all, Dino De Laurentiis wanted to ask him again, and he didn't know how to answer.
After all, good movies are full of tricks when they are boasted, and they will come when they open their mouths.
But a bad movie is too embarrassing, the actors are beautiful, the soundtrack is good, and the props are real......
If you go to some premiere, you can deal with it and it will pass.
But on this occasion, once those scenes are spoken, they will be exposed.
Although this movie Cloud Pictures invested four million dollars, Hanyu Hideki was not here to make money.
To be on the safe side, Hideki Hanyu didn't wait for Dino DeLaurentiis to speak again, so he took the initiative to wrap his arms around the old Italian man's shoulders and deliberately lowered his voice and asked.
"Mr. Dino, the costume for shooting angels is still not there, I like it very much, how about selling it to me as a collection."
When Dino DeLaurentiis heard this, he immediately showed a smile that all men understand.
"If Mr. Hanyu likes it, I'll have someone send it to your residence."
"Then please Mr. Dino."
After Hanyu Hideki finished speaking, he immediately wrote the address of the mansion south of Sunset Boulevard.
He decided to let Emmanuel Bea COS play with the original French Angel first.
When Monica Bellucci returns from Europe, he will experience the taste of Italian angels again.
Hideki Hanyu came to see the film this time, mainly to see if the movie was as "stable" as in his previous life.
Now that seeing the movie makes him so "relieved", he naturally doesn't need to stay here.
Next, the creators of "Angels in the World" will also discuss the publicity plan with the staff of De Laurentiis Entertainment, which has nothing to do with Hideki Hanyu.
Therefore, after saying goodbye to Dino De Laurentiis, he left the De Laurentiis Entertainment Group.
Emmanuel Bea, who had come with him, had something to talk about, and did not go with him.
However, before leaving, he did not forget to make an appointment with the French beauty, and he would meet after the angel costume was delivered.
and angels......
It's exciting to think about.
With this in mind, Hideki Hanyu went out to find a restaurant to settle lunch, and then told Marco to drive to Cloud Pictures in Century City.
Although he does not plan to participate in the negotiation of "Flying Over Innocence", it is about hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue, and it is more about the development of Cloud Pictures in Hollywood, and he should care about the result.
Soon, Hideki Hanyu arrived at the Cloud Pictures Building.
However, Hideki Hanyu, who took the elevator to the company, did not notice that when he entered the elevator, a young girl happened to walk in at the entrance of the building.
This girl is no stranger, it is the assistant arranged for Jenny Wright by New Century Agency.
After the female assistant found out that Hanyu Hideki and his party had been discovered, she immediately ran back to the company excitedly and sent a pager message to Jenny Wright.
β¦β¦
In the manager's office of Cloud Pictures, Hideki Hanyu said with a frown after listening to Fred Webber's report.
"That said, our negotiations with Amy Hecklin are going well, but filming won't start until at least August next year."
Fred Webb nodded, "This is also something that can't be helped, after all, Director Amy is pregnant, and it is really inconvenient to work in this situation." β
"No wonder......"
Hanyu Hideki was still wondering why the script of "Flying Over Innocence" was now available, why another time and space would only be released in 1989.
Originally, he thought that it was Amy Hecklin and his wife who pulled the investment not well.
As a result, I now know that it turned out that someone was pregnant and wanted to have a baby.
"Boss, what did you say?"
Fred Webber didn't hear Hideki Hanyu talking to himself.
Hideki Hanyu hurriedly waved his hand and said, "I just remembered something else. β
He also did not forget to advise, "I actually contacted two projects at the publicity meeting yesterday, and made an appointment to come to the company for an interview tomorrow, and the specific work will be negotiated by you." β
After speaking, he pulled a piece of paper and wrote on it the information of "A Fish Named Wanda" and "Midnight Terror".
Fred Webb glanced at the message on the paper and asked, "Do you have to take it?" β
"I'm very optimistic about those two projects."
As soon as Hideki Hanyu said this, Fred Webb knew what he had to do.
When the boss speaks, it is better to kill the wrong person than let it go.
However, Fred Webb did not forget to ask Hideki Hanyu.
"Boss, do you have a production budget for these two projects?"
"A fish named Wanda, I promised a $7 million production budget and the possibility to go to the UK to shoot.
Midnight Terror is not confirmed for the time being, and the producer of the pull project said that he wants to invite Al Pacino to star, and you can consider the salary when you talk. β
However, Fred Webb was not too worried when he heard Al Pacino's name.
Al Pacino is of course a big-name actor in Hollywood, but in today's Hollywood, he is a typical representative of great fame and low salary.
Especially the other party's "Revolution" starring in 1985, which suffered a waterloo at the box office and word of mouth, and the box office in North America was not even a million dollars.
Hollywood film companies value actors the most important thing is their recent box office performance.
It is said that Paramount has always wanted to start "The Godfather 3", but even this kind of sequel movie pays Al Pacino only five million dollars.
Not to mention that compared with those action stars who have a box office of tens of millions at every turn, even Bruce Willis, who is shooting a movie for the first time, can get this salary.
Of course, the reason why Cloud Pictures agreed to give Bruce Willis a salary of five million is not only because he intends to use the salary to hype, but also because Bruce Willis agrees to sign a salary restriction contract.
That is if Cloud Pictures shoots the sequel to "Die Hard", Bruce Willis's salary increase will be limited.
Of course, it can be negotiated within the scope, but it will not be allowed to let Bruce Willis ask for a skyrocketing price.
And this one is what Hideki Hanyu strongly demands.
The topic returned to Al Pacino, Cloud Pictures invited the other party to cooperate, and the cap salary was five million.
It's still expensive, but at least it's affordable.
And Fred Webb, after calculating the box office budget of several movies, finally said to Hideki Hanyu.
"Boss, although these films will not be produced at the same time, counting the previous two big productions, our production budget in two years is more than 100 million US dollars, and the parent company had better be prepared."
"Don't worry, I will explain to the person in charge of the group, and I will definitely not let the budget of Cloud Entertainment Card North America."
Hideki Hanyu made a guarantee.
And this matter really has to be said by him personally, the production cost of more than $100 million in two years is not a small number for a big studio.
But the good news is that the yen has been strengthening strongly in recent times, and has reached the 130 mark.
100 million US dollars, which is 13 billion yen.
Neon companies are now desperately investing overseas by taking advantage of the exchange rate.
It's just that Hideki Hanyu is not too anxious, because he knows that there is still a lot of room for the yen to rise.
Of course, he won't wait until the highest point is below a hundred yen.
That space was too short, and it wasn't until the mid-nineties.
Thinking about it from another angle, the exchange rate has risen like this, and it is not nonsense to say that Cloud Pictures is backed by the wealth of the parent company.
So don't look at him helping Cloud Pictures find an investment project of almost 50 million US dollars overnight, but for the Cloud Entertainment Group, whose turnover is still rising rapidly due to the bubble economy, it can easily deal with it.
There is so much money that I can't spend it, and as a result, the bank desperately recommends loans, which is definitely a happy trouble.
forced Asako Hirohashi to take the money for various investments.
In addition to real estate and investment in the stock market, the most important thing to do is actually various expansions and acquisitions.
In the neon entertainment industry, the approach is to buy animation studios, small studios, or take shares in industry peers, etc.
In terms of channel construction, the acquisition of Tsutaya Bookstore is only one of them, and the expansion of distribution and publicity channels in the state and overseas is the top priority.
For example, it acquired shares in TVB and invested in the media market in Southeast Asia, such as Malaysia and Star City, newspapers, magazines, publications, radio, television, etc.
Among them, the biggest contribution is the cloud media, which has always been inconspicuous.
Originally, the original intention of Asako Hirohashi to set up cloud media was just to publish some publications aimed at cloud fans.
As a result, in the past few years, it has successively invested in neon, whether it is in Neon locally or overseas, and has mastered huge media resources.
Of course, it's not just cloud media that's conquering overseas.
Cloud Arts can cooperate with local forces throughout East Asia with the help of talent shows, and there is no shadow on the surface, but many emerging brokerage companies are actually controlled by the cloud system.
Of course, the most popular overseas is Cloud Music (Asia), which is not only committed to promoting the popularity of cloud singers overseas.
In the past two years, under the command of Hanyu Hideki, he brandished banknotes to start a poaching war, and the war stretched from Xiangjiang to Wanwan, and all parts of Southeast Asia were not spared.
In the past, other record companies poached people, and those who basically poached were singers at the front desk.
But Cloud Music (Asia) is different, it really doesn't let go from the front of the stage to the back of the scenes.
If you can dig it, you can dig it, and if you can't dig it, you will encourage the other party to stand on its own.
With this trick, the Wanwan music market has been turned upside down.
The focus of the next stage is to use entertainment media resources to feed the development of the fashion industry.
Ai International continues to expand, and TGC is the key support object.
The next step is to occupy the fashion highlands of the whole of Asia.
And then you bring it all together.
Thinking about this, Hanyu Hideki said in good conscience that he himself did not know how far the cloud system would develop.
It can only be said that he designed the general direction for this "monster".
Then it took advantage of the capital advantage of the neon bubble economy period, instinctively stretched out its tentacles to the outside world, and began to expand the enclosure little by little.
Syllable!
Hideki Hanyu patted his forehead.
Originally, I just wanted to say hello to Asako Hirohashi and let Cloud Entertainment not card the budget of Cloud Pictures, but the more I thought about it, the more I thought about it.
And the more I think about it, the more I feel like the kind of big boss standing behind the scenes.
Originally, he just wanted to make a little money, and then he was just a scumbag beauty, why did this stall get bigger and bigger.
The key is that everything now is just the beginning for him.
Hiss β
He really wanted to keep a low profile, but his heart was still a little inflated.
"Boss, are you alright?"
Fred Webber, who was next to him, saw that Hideki Hanyu's expression kept changing, and asked with concern.
Hideki Hanyu was pulled into reality by the question, shook his head and said, "It's okay." β
With that, he got up and prepared to leave.
But affected by the slightly inflated mentality, he patted Fred Webb on the shoulder before leaving.
"Fred, let's work together, and in the future, I may be able to buy one of the eight major studios and send Ling to be the CEO."
But when Fred Webb heard this, he only thought Hanyu Hideki was joking.
"Boss, don't be kidding. Instead of thinking so far ahead, let's think about how we can solve our shortage of manpower. β
Joke?
Hanyu thought to himself that Sony could buy Columbia, and Panasonic could buy Universal.
Even if he doesn't resist the first wave of damage, let these two be the shields first.
But when Panasonic can't continue to operate, it's not impossible to discuss taking over Global.
When the time comes, Elf Land and Universal Studios will be combined and built, and Disneyland will not be in his eyes.
But there's no need to talk to Fred Webber about this kind of thing.
As for the lack of manpower?
Hideki Hanyu asked curiously, "What kind of manpower are we lacking right now?" β
Fred Webb replied, "It's easy to recruit technicians, but it's hard to find experienced producers, and I have to deal with the company's affairs now, and I can't do it a lot of the time." β
Hearing this, Hideki Hanyu touched his chin and asked.
"How's Cannon Pictures doing?"
Fred Webb said, "The contracts between Captain America and Spider-Man are all signed, and there is absolutely no problem with delaying until the copyright expires." β
"I'm not talking about this, it's the operation of Cannon Pictures."
"Superman 4 has a bad score, and they certainly aren't in a good financial situation."
"Go ask Minahan Golan, if he has a layoff, we can help take in some people. And there are a lot of independent studios in Hollywood that have been doing badly lately, so you have to sort out the list and pick the right outright acquisitions. β
When Fred Webb heard this, his eyes lit up and he asked, "Boss, do you want to establish a distribution channel in America?" β
"We won't be thinking about it for a short time, and the group is now waiting for the Grand Commander to lift the bill for vertical theater operations, and then it will enter the America cinema market, which is more important than the money saved on distribution."
Hideki Hanyu said to Fred Webb.
Although it has its own channel in America, Cloud Pictures will definitely save a lot of distribution costs, but these expenses are not worth mentioning compared to the benefits brought by the expansion of Crescent Cinemas.
And Hanyu Hideki must also consider that before companies such as Sony and Panasonic come to Hollywood to attract attention, Cloud Pictures can't attract too much attention from Hollywood.
Otherwise, with his ability, he will be full of firepower and desperately search for those big-selling movies, and Cloud Pictures will not need to spend money in the independent film industry at all.
It's not that it has been established for more than a year, and not a single blockbuster movie has appeared, and seeing that the investment in "Angels in the World" is about to lose money.
Even in the next two years, only a few blockbuster movies have been prepared.
Although his mentality is a little inflated, he is still quite steady.
After all, Sony's acquisition of Colombia was a big fuss.
But when Panasonic bought Universal, everyone got used to it.
When he takes over Global, it is estimated that no one will care.
Hideki Hanyu thought of another person at this time, that is, the husband of Amy Hecklin, the director of "Flying Over Innocence", Neil Israel.
He told Fred Webb, "Contact Amy Hecklin, his husband Neil Israel also has experience as a producer, and you can invite him to join Cloud Entertainment." β
Fred Webb replied, "Okay, I'll get in touch next." β
"You keep busy, I'll go first."
Next, Hideki Hanyu said goodbye and left.
But just when Hideki Hanyu walked to the elevator hall and thought about where he was going to spend the night today, two figures appeared in front of him.
It was Jenny Wright, who was followed by Bill Hart, the manager of New Century Agency, and Sherlyn Finn at last night's event.
(Sherlyn Finn Photo)
"What a coincidence, sir."
Jenny Wright greeted with a smile on her face.
Hanyu Hideki said in his heart, I believe your words, it's strange, if this woman hadn't guarded him here in advance, he would have brought these two back together at night.
Of course, you can also just bring Sherlyn Finn, Jenny Wright and forget it.
Although this woman is also beautiful, after being happy a few times, the novelty has long been gone.
And he also gave the benefits that should be given, fair trade, and each did not owe each other.
Thinking of this, Hanyu Hideki responded casually, "Yes, what a coincidence." β
Then he turned to look at Sherlyn Finn again, "Miss Sherlyn Finn, we meet again." β
Compared with Jenny Wright, the scumbag treats Shirlene Fen a lot more seriously.
After all, this is also a well-known movie star in Hollywood.
Of course, fame is only a plus for scumbags.
The main thing, of course, is that this woman is beautiful enough.
He didn't have the opportunity to witness the female stars of the golden age of Hollywood, but he could also appreciate one or two things through Shirlene Fen.
"Hello, Mr. Hanyu." Sherin Fen's face looked a little cramped.
It's not that this woman can't let go, it's mainly Hanyu Hideki's identity, which puts too much pressure on her.
In the past few days, following Jenny Wright, Shirlene Fen has gradually learned the identity of Hideki Hanyu and knows that this is a person who can easily decide her fate.
Hideki Hanyu was in a good mood today, and there were beautiful women in front of him, so it was rare to ask, "Did you come to Cloud Pictures to talk about work?" β
"We're here to get some questions."
Jenny Wright deliberately approached Hideki Hanyu as she spoke, pretending to be affectionate and asked, "Can you tell me a little bit of news, sir?" β
Facing Jenny Wright who was pasted, the scumbag immediately frowned.
Jenny Wright saw that the situation was not right, and knew that if she continued to talk, she would be exposed in front of Shirin Fin, so she took the opportunity to lean her head close to Hideki Hanyu and whispered in a low voice.
"Sir, Sherlyn Fen has the same admiration for you as the ladies last time in Malibu."
When Hideki Hanyu heard this, he immediately looked at Jenny Wright in some surprise.
What's the matter with this woman?
Is this not going to be an actor, but planning to be a "pimp" and "mom san" in Hollywood part-time?
In later generations, there are many people who have made a fortune in Hollywood by doing this business.
The most important thing is that Sherlyn Finn should be in a relationship with Johnny Depp now, right?
Hanyu Hideki's eyes fell on Shirin Finn's face, thinking to himself that this woman had already kicked Depp in order to be on top?
But regardless of whether Sherlyn Fen kicked Depp or not, the other party's amorous, curvaceous posture, and beautiful face like a flower are indeed the type that scumbags like.
Of course, Hideki Hanyu is also thinking about another thing, and that is the image of Shirin Finn, which is actually very suitable for some of the films that Cloud Pictures plans for the future.
The other party's beauty, instead of wasting it in those meat-selling movies, it is better to sign a few more film contracts with Cloud Pictures to make money for him.
Thinking of this, Hideki Hanyu looked away from Sherin Finn and turned to ask Jenny Wright, "What news do you want to know?" β
"Blood Night Sequel."
As soon as Jenny Wright's words came out, the first thought that came to her mind was that if she could join the crew of the sequel to Bloody Night, she would definitely leave New Century Agency.
Every time she gets a role, she has to rely on herself, and Bill Hart will only play lip service, and then take a cut of her salary for nothing.
"So that's it, let's talk about it in another place, right?"
After Hanyu finished speaking, he walked towards the elevator.
Jenny Wright greeted Shirlene Fen as she strode up to Hideki Hanyu.
Sherin Fen had a look of hesitation on her face.
According to Sherlyn Fin, according to the rules of Hollywood, such big people take them away, and then they will either go to a hotel or a room with a red sofa.
But since she is willing to come with Jenny Wright, she is mentally prepared and ready to pay the price of fame.
So after only a moment's hesitation, Sherin Fen followed.
But the next development of events was completely beyond Sherin Fin's expectations.
She and Jenny Wright sat in a luxurious Rolls-Royce in Hideki Hanyu and eventually came to a ......
Texas Rotisserie.
On a table full of barbecue, Hideki Hanyu feasted.
Seeing that the two women in front of him were not moving, he deliberately raised his head and asked.
"Why don't you eat it? You're welcome, the slow-roasted beef breast at this restaurant tastes good. β
"Oh...... Oh, thank you. β
Sherin Fen was a little dumbfounded, and in a daze, she picked up a piece of beef and put it in her mouth.
At the same time, she was very puzzled in her heart.
What about hotel rooms? What about the red sofa?
