Hollywood New Century

Chapter 285: political reception

In Manhattan, at the Plaza Hotel in New York, across from Central Park South, a luxurious reception is being held.

Many celebrities from the political, business and entertainment circles participated.

Simon Parker is chatting with Mike Bloomberg, the mayor of New York City of 88, who has been mayor of New York since 2001, and this year is his second term.

"The mayor of New York will be re-elected soon, and it seems that the third term starting this year will also be realized!" Simon said with a smile. The mayoral election year is over.

"The financial tsunami has had a great impact on New York's economy, and I also hope to restore New York's economy as soon as possible, just like when I ran for mayor for the first time after 9/11," Mike Bloomberg, a well-known billionaire on the Forbes list, said. Millionaires are vital to the development of the economy.

After running for mayor of New York, he helped New York recover the economic situation after 9/11 with the fastest speed.

Simon nodded, the scene of a reception is so big, no wonder Mike Bloomberg's approval rate is so high.

It's nice to have money.

"The construction plan of the new stadium in Brooklyn is very good, and it is of great significance to the development of Brooklyn," Mike Bloomberg smiled, certainly supporting the Nets' move from New Jersey to New York.

"The construction of the new stadium is only the first phase of the Atlantic Plaza project, and the investment in the future will definitely be greater," Simon also smiled and continued,

"However, that requires land. The surrounding land must be taken as soon as possible before construction can begin. The less resistance, the faster the Forest City Group can carry out the project."

Mike Bloomberg nodded, and of course he understood what Simon meant. The crowds and parades around the new stadium that he encountered during the construction of the new stadium would affect the construction period too much.

"Don't worry, the city council has decided, there will be no big deal!" Mike Bloomberg was very casual.

Old fox, Simon cursed in his heart.

With a smile on his face, he said happily: "New York, as the financial center of the United States and even the world, has a crucial impact on the development of the economy. The recovery of New York is also what everyone wants to see!"

"In the future, whether it is Nine Head Bird Capital or Xinghai Entertainment Group, New York will be one of the base camps and will also fulfill its corporate responsibilities."

"New York is currently preparing to introduce some entertainment tax rebate policies, I think you will be interested!" Mike Bloomberg said, patted Simon on the shoulder, and said with a smile,

"Okay, I have to greet other guests, have fun, there are many young and beautiful girls here!"

Simon smiled and said, "Please!"

After Mike Bloomberg left, Simon drank his glass of wine in one gulp. Politics was everywhere.

The governor, the mayor, the senator, the congressman, the attorney general, the Commerce Department, whether Democrats or Republicans, Simon has seen too much.

Hotel venue, George Clooney and his agent Stan Rosenfeld also participated in the reception.

Stan Rosenfeld suddenly found Simon Pike in the distance, gently pushed George Clooney's arm, and whispered: "Simon Pike is also there, if you can, you'd better find a chance to show it. Well, now your situation is not very good!"

"Is it helpful?" George Clooney looked displeased, looked over there, and turned his head on purpose.

"George, you have to pay attention to your own identity, as well as his identity. He is now a top tycoon in Hollywood, and the capital and connections in his hands are not comparable to you," Stan Rosenfeld said with a bitter look.

"He's risen so fast, you know what happened to Richard Gere?"

George Clooney looked over, and Stan Rosenfeld said to himself: "Richard Gere basically can't stand in Hollywood now, there are no resources in Europe, and there are all kinds of negative news now!"

"Simon Pike may have forgotten him, but many people still remember what happened back then. Many people isolated him in order to please Simon. Richard Gere can't even repay the bank's loan, and the tax office has sued."

Stan Rosenfeld looked at George Clooney with a look of helplessness, and said, "Xinghai Entertainment is very strong now, who will seek Simon's unhappiness for you?"

George Clooney retorted: "I'm not Richard Gere's outdated star, someone else must use me!"

"Who?" Stan Rosenfeld's temper also came. As a big agent, he still has characters such as Robert De Niro in his hands, and said sternly:

"Harvey Weinstein? Don't you look at how embarrassed he is now, and how bad the Weinstein Films' film performance has been in the past few years? And the overwhelming negative news, see Matt Damon, Quentin Tower Who dares to speak for him like Lentino and Russell Crowe?"

Stan Rosenfeld was angry and continued: "Who do you think Simon Pike is? When he is a small role? He is now the one who can set the rules of Hollywood. He is now worth more than 10 billion, and he is out of Sa Mer Redstone and Rupert Murdoch, who is richer than him in Hollywood?"

"And look at how strong the development of Xinghai Entertainment is now. Not to mention Oscar, the box office is even stronger. He doesn't like you, do you still have a way to survive?"

"This," George Clooney was indeed speechless, and whispered: "Didn't Warner Bros. have a contract with me?"

"Hmph, so what? How strong is your box office appeal? Look at whether Brad Pitt and his wife have crossed paths with you now. The Curious Case of Benjamin Button at this year's Oscars is enough to illustrate, Simon. Parker still has such a strong eye on the film," Stan Rosenfeld said, getting angrier.

"Forget it, you can do it yourself, I'm leaving!" Stan Rosenfeld said and left the venue. George Clooney has also received a lot of negative news from last year to this year. Taking the lead in boycotting last year's Olympic Games almost offended the whole of China. The people, coupled with speeding, were also reported, as well as a lot of tidbits.

Stan Rosenfeld is really tired, waiting for things to do, and interested in mixing politics? And you're a Democratic supporter and you're coming to a party where Mike Bloomberg is a Republican?

Although Mike Bloomberg was originally a Democrat, he was a leftist because he ran for mayor to join the Republican Party.

"Is it useful to have more relationships? It's too difficult for you not to reconcile with Simon Parker!" Stan Rosenfeld was still upset after he went out.

Of course, Simon Pike at the reception didn't know about George Clooney. Because Simon had just met Jack Welch, the former chairman of GE, who had been at the helm for many years.

Invited by Simon Parker as the strategic advisor of Xinghai Entertainment, Jack Welch's role will not be small in the future acquisition of NBC Universal under General Electric.
