Hollywood New Century

In Los Angeles in February, the temperature during the day is almost 20°C, and the warm sunshine makes people very comfortable.

In a coffee shop two blocks from Xinghai Entertainment's headquarters in Burbank, Los Angeles, Simon was chatting with Jamie Timon, the CEO of **** bank.

"Xinghai Entertainment's current assets are all excellent. Our bank believes that if Xinghai Entertainment issues group bonds, it will be very popular, especially Marvel, whose valuation is very high," Jamie Timon said. This time, I specially met Simon, in addition to the title of the Brooklyn Stadium under construction, and the undertaking to help Xinghai Entertainment issue 1 billion US dollars of corporate bonds.

Although, **** also thinks that it can help Xinghai Entertainment distribute more. After all, the films and televisions produced by Xinghai Entertainment are really popular and can attract investors to enter.

"Currently it's almost 1 billion, and the company still has some cash flow. It's just that there are more movies to be released this year, so we need a lot of capital," Simon explained. After all, if a larger amount of bonds is issued, it is impossible to just let A bank undertakes, at least the size of two or three, or more.

Jamie Dimeng smiled and nodded casually: "If there is a need in the future, our bank will be very willing to continue to cooperate with Xinghai Group."

Simon nodded and said with a smile: "Our cooperation will not be less in the future, and after the second half of next year, the **** center gymnasium in Brooklyn, New York will be put into use, right?"

"Happy cooperation!" Jamie Timon smiled and shook hands with Simon.

After Jamie Timon left, Simon looked up just in time to see the results of the Madoff fraud trial playing on the TV in front of the store.

Bernard Madoff was tried, pleaded guilty to 11 felony charges related to securities fraud, money laundering, and forgery of documents, and was sentenced to 150 years in prison; the court also issued a $170 billion forfeiture bill.

Simon watched for a while, and thought about Jamie Timon's expression before, which seemed to have a hint of melancholy, so it was.

Bernard Madoff's fund account was opened at the **** bank, there must be some involvement.

After a while, Zhou Lixian, the head of the Asian branch of Xinghai International Pictures, came in and sat opposite Simon.

"The weather in Los Angeles is really good. Whether it's Beijing or Shanghai, it's much colder than this," Zhou Lixian said with a smile.

"Hong Kong isn't so cold, right? I'm here to play for a while, as a vacation!" Simon said with a smile.

Zhou Lixian shook his head and said seriously: "The investment in "Tai Chi" is huge, and all preparations must be done well. Mr. Zhou has brought some staff to San Francisco to make the final preparations for the shooting."

"The combination of Stephen Chow and Anne Hathaway can still be expected," said Zhou Lixian, who is responsible and excited for the production of a $60 million Chinese male lead movie.

"Well, it's good to have confidence. We try our best to make good movies, and I believe fans will surprise us!" Simon felt a little calm. After all, although the investment is large, the investment in the Asian region is also acceptable.

"By the way, Miss Tong didn't come with me this time," Zhou Lixian said and smiled at Simon.

"Understood, this time is our opportunity to enter the Chinese region, and it is also an opportunity for Chinese films to enter the world. In any case, it is a win-win choice." Simon said, leaning back on the chair, a little lazy.

"By the way, how is the economic situation over there now?" Now the world's economy is in a downturn, and the big market environment is not good.

Zhou Lixian shook his head and said with a wry smile: "It's not good either. Now with the reduction of foreign trade, the domestic economy is only boosting the internal economy through infrastructure."

"Anyway, there is a market demand of more than one billion people, and the recovery is slightly faster than some other countries."

"By the way, there are several iMax giant-screen theaters under construction over there. Is the plan still the same? Is the investment a bit too big?" Zhou Lixian is a little hesitant about spending a lot of money to build 3D theaters, mainly 3D movies that are produced every year. Not much.

"Know James Cameron. His masterpiece "Avatar", which he has been preparing for four years, is about to be released. Many people are looking forward to this huge sci-fi blockbuster. The iMax version must be a different feeling," Simon said. smiled,

"The viewing experience of special effects blockbusters on the giant screen is different!"

"Avatar, of course I know, and the famous James Cameron is indeed worth looking forward to," Zhou Lixian has been immersed in the film industry for many years, and of course he has his own film judgment ability.

"Don't worry, you need to prepare "Tai Chi" first. For the current investment in the Chinese market, the future income will be unimaginable," Simon said, standing up and preparing to leave the coffee shop.

"Then I'm also going to join the team in San Francisco. I hope there won't be any accidents." Zhou Lixian is also preparing to resume work after a few days of rest.

"Well, remember to pay attention to all kinds of information about Disney and Shanghai, China's new Disneyland," Simon reminded before leaving.

After leaving the cafe, Simon went directly back to Beverly Hills. It seems that Anne Hathaway is currently in Los Angeles and should meet.

Anne Hathaway, who wears a pair of dark slacks with a white shirt and a trench coat, is quite attractive.

From "Princess Diaries" to "The Queen Wears Prada", Anne Hathaway is indeed smooth sailing, and her popularity remains high.

Two films are released every year, this year there is "Thor", "Alice in Wonderland" is currently filming, and "Tai Chi" is about to be filmed.

"Let's go to Disneyland in Anaheim tomorrow," Simon, who was half lying on the sofa with Anne Hathaway in his arms, suddenly said.

Disneyland in Anaheim, California is Disney's first park. Anaheim is about 40 kilometers southeast of Los Angeles, and the park is only an hour's drive from Los Angeles.

"Disneyland?" Anne Hathaway smiled. "Why did you suddenly have this idea?"

Simon rubbed the girl's chest and said casually: "I just want to see if Disneyland is really attractive. I want to see how many tourists are there this year?"

"Okay, I'm very familiar. We will drive there tomorrow morning, and we can play at least one day!" Anne Hathaway also debuted as a Disney princess, and is really familiar with Disneyland.

Simon is now envious of Disneyland and Universal Studios, which are the main movie parks and holiday consumption areas, and Disney's culture seems to have long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Without beating Disneyland, the Disney Group will always have this cash cow to produce milk.
