Chicago 1990

Chapter 945 Decided to Increase Holdings

It seems that Black Light is going to add new players, but fortunately, Tiger Woods, who has a golden spoon in his mouth and can be featured in Golf Digest magazine at the age of five, is unlikely to be popular with black people on the street.

Uh, in fact, I am not their favorite anymore. 2PAC and Biggie are undoubtedly the two idols of black people on the street.

"Me and 2PAC are working on a new movie called Gridlock'd (Belreal), starring Tim Roth, who was just nominated for an Oscar for supporting actor."

As a female literary youth, Xue Linfen arranged a rock fan Sharon at her home in San Marino. The heroine Thandie Newton of her first film produced a beer bottle in one hand and a cigarette in the other hand and said with a smile: "He is very nice." .”

"Oh hehehe, didn't Quincy Jones' daughter come to visit?"

The women around immediately booed when they heard this ostentatious remark.

"Kidada Jones? Doesn't 2PAC really love that man who is bound by a big-mouthed bitch..."

Thandie Newton triumphantly continued to imply that something happened between herself and 2PAC, until she saw Song Ya who was chatting with Hayden and Donovan in front of the TV, "Mr. APLUS, Hey!" Sister, take the initiative to come over to say hello, "I heard that Xuelin took you to watch the finished film? How was it? Comment? When will it be released?"

"I told Yeremov to contact independent film distributors, and presumably give Mr. Weinstein a look."

Song Ya replied. This woman is also of mixed race. Her mother is a princess from an African tribe, and her father is a white British artist. She is not two years older than herself, but she looks a bit old. This year she got a lot of resources in Hollywood. As a graduate of Cambridge University, she specializes in equal rights Movies don't have much niche conflict with Harley of the vase route, neither appearance nor coffee status pose a threat.

Of course, in the late 1980s, she was still very tasty when she starred in "The Heart of a Woman", when she was the girlfriend of the film's director John Duggan, and Nicole Kidman was only a supporting role in that Australian film before Met Soup.

But it wasn't until this project produced by Xue Linfen that she got the role of leading heroine for the first time. Even if the low-cost literary film was less than one million yuan, she was still very nervous.

"The film is not bad, your performance is great." Song Ya casually praised a few words.

"Mr. Weinstein!" Thandie Newton was very excited when he heard the title of king of prizes,

"So we have a chance at indie festivals and awards season!?"

"I'm not sure. Yeremov will plan it out. Just ask your agent to wait for the announcement of the schedule from A+ Film Studio."

According to Yeremov's judgment, it is estimated that independent film festivals and award seasons will not be able to please. If the project can not lose money, I will be grateful. After sending away the expecting heroine, he went upstairs to hide in the study. It has been so many years , he still couldn't get used to the smoky rock party.

Not long to stay in Los Angeles, he held the increasingly obedient little Robb on his lap, and concentrated on reading documents and settling accounts.

After paying other costs and the 5 million left for the Blade Runner project, he raised 25 million from the income of the two projects of A+ Film Studio, which is a little more than expected, and will be mainly spent in two places.

For the IPO of Infoseek this month, he plans to buy some stocks from the public market like YAHOO did. After all, he is a strategic partner of the American music website, and the current search engine market share is firmly ranked first.

In addition, the DTS shares in everyone's hands have been lifted. Spielberg intends to sell the share he owns, and he has been through the wind for a long time.

The founder of DTS, Terry Beard, begged himself to take over at least part of it. He was very nervous, because with the bull market and the DVD alliance announcing that it will launch consumer-grade products to the market by the end of the year, the weak stock price of DTS, which belongs to the DVD concept sector, has just improved. After regaining the opening price, it is launching an impact on the total market value of 200 million dollars. Spielberg is running now, which will definitely cause panic among ordinary investors.

At present, there is a saying that the DVD format will encounter the dilemma of VCD in developed countries, and face the same piracy problem as VCD in developing countries. In addition to the success of the cassette and CD formats, the MD and other standards forced by Sony afterward are half dead. , the market has doubts.

"DeLay, what about Spielberg and DTS specifically?"

The market value is so much, and it doesn’t cost much to increase some DTS shares, and he is also willing. After all, there is still a big gap between the current surround sound technology and the sound effect of his apocalypse songs, and there are only Dolby, DTS, Sony, etc. in the market. Several leading players.

"Very good. Spielberg's net worth has already passed the one billion mark this year. Before a blockbuster film from DreamWorks is released, it has already reached a contract with Universal for the distribution of some national theaters and video tapes totaling one billion dollars. Universal also spent 54 million to buy 2% of the shares of DreamWorks, which means that the current valuation of DreamWorks is 2.7 billion. The Big Three only paid more than 30 million dollars..."

Di Lai, who often went to DTS to hold board meetings, made a clear statement. He said on the phone: "He no longer looks down on DTS's little money. Instead, it is more beneficial to fade out from the list of major shareholders, because he was promoting it to theaters on a large scale back then. In the case of DTS, he may have some private deals with the former president of Universal Simberg. David Geffen earns more, and the Dreamworks Records he is in charge of just won George Michael who left Sony Columbia, and the Eels band , My personal net worth is estimated to be almost two billion, and the figure calculated by Fujibi Magazine last year was still 1.3 billion."

"That's it..."

Universal's new boss, Jr. Bronfman, is really big. Song Ya can only envy those three, and bend down to pick up money, "What is the prospect of DVD? Will it be the same as VCD?"

"I don't know. Anyway, I heard that PolyGram is trying to release a genuine VCD music video in Asia with about 12 soft sister coins, but no one cares about it. I heard that the pirated disc is only five yuan over there." Delay explain.

Polygram is really a different species. Of course, this has something to do with the will of Philips behind it. Philips makes a lot of money by selling the industrial assembly line for making optical discs and the patent licensing fees for some chips in DVD players. The proliferation of pirated optical discs will help expand these upstreams. The market size of the product.

In this case, isn't DTS also an upstream company? Song Ya made up her mind to increase her holdings, and changed to another topic casually, "By the way, how is DefJam Records doing recently?"

"I don't know, Huichun's new album has made them some money. I heard that PolyGram is planning to merge some small and medium-sized record companies on the East Coast into DefJam. It’s over haha.” Di Lai laughed.

"Hahaha……"

Those high-level executives at Polygram are really funny, and their family also played the role of mole in the FTC's antitrust case against the six major record companies, but how to say, you can't blame them, since the parent company Philips cares about the profits of the record industry If not, then they probably can only hang around for a day.

The two brothers were chatting cheerfully, when a steaming cup of coffee appeared on the table, "Is this movie not going well?" Xue Linfen seemed to have realized it, and took little Robb from Song Ya's lap, and asked: "I feel that Yeremov's words are flickering."

"uncertain."

Song Ya could only comfort her in this way, "It shouldn't be a loss. It's too early to talk about it now. Let's talk about it after the review conclusions of various distribution companies come out. Well... I talked with Linton, and next year we will probably continue the cat-and-mouse Game mode, co-production of a low-cost literary film, the budget will be higher than this one, and when Blade Runner will be released, A+ film studios will not have to shoot black subjects next year, that kind of film is too restrictive to win awards The audience is also small. But...the chief producer should be someone from Hollywood Pictures, can you follow the team as an ordinary producer?"

"I see, I screwed up, right?" Xue Linfen asked dejectedly.

"It's not too bad, you did a good job as a producer for the first time..."

Song Ya thought about it and chose to say it straight, "Next year I can continue to use small projects as big toys for you to practice, but I feel that you really like the job of being a producer, and this job... I want to do it very well. Difficult, requires experience, and needs to learn more attentively. What do you think?"

"Thank you, you made me feel more respected by doing this." Xue Linfen nodded movedly.

"Well, go and call Goodman up, and let him take the relevant documents of DTS."
