Chapter 924 So I'm the Super Rich
Keep in mind our website and wish you all a happy reading! Don't forget to spread the word.
In addition to the public two-day itinerary, Simon's trip to China is planned for a total of two weeks. After Yangshuo, I originally planned to visit other places. However, this landscape is too beautiful. After experiencing such a scenery, there is really no need to pay attention to the next-level scenery.
So it took five days in total.
Daily boating, dancing, mountain climbing, tea tasting... linger on.
The last stop before leaving is Zhuhai in Shunan.
Mainly Janet wanted to see.
Ang Lee had already started to conceive the script of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" during the filming of "Eating and Drinking Men and Women" in 1993, but it has been shelved because the conditions of all parties are not mature. After the last meeting, Ang Lee stopped the preparations for "Ice Storm" and began to turn to this movie. Because many details have been brewing for a long time, the first draft of the script was completed in just over a week, and it came to Simon.
When Janet accompanied Simon to read the script on the patio of the other courtyard, she saw the man sketch the scene of the battle in the bamboo forest in "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" on the manuscript, and heard Simon talk about the vast and magnificent scenery of the bamboo sea, so she gave birth to Interest in shifting positions.
Speaking of which, because of the release of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", China's bamboo sea landscape has become famous at home and abroad for a while, and it has become a check-in holy place for many domestic and foreign tourists later, and it has gradually evolved into one of the national tourism business cards. However, there are many theories as to where the battle of the Bamboo Sea in "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" was filmed.
Because there are many bamboo sea landscapes in China, Shunan Bamboo Sea is just one of them.
Simon had no time to dwell on this.
Since I have been to the bamboo sea in southern Sichuan, I will directly finalize it.
This vast bamboo sea covers an area of more than 120 square kilometers. There are not only natural bamboo scenery, but also the strange peaks, hanging walls, mountains, streams and quiet lakes under the creation of heaven and earth, and there are also various ancient temples and pavilions under the accumulation of thousands of years of history. Yuloutai fully meets all the framing needs of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" in memory.
Therefore, after arriving, Simon directly asked someone to take a batch of photos and pass them on to Ang Lee.
Saturday, May 4th.
After seeing the scenery of Bamboo Sea, this trip to China has also come to an end.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, the Westeros family's private Boeing 767 took off from Chengdu, without any stopover, and flew directly to Los Angeles on the other side of the ocean. Before that, the core of the Westeros system that visited China together last week had all returned, including a U.S. government delegation headed by the Secretary of Commerce.

With an estimated 15 hours of flight time, Simon also began to get back into work.
"The cooperation agreement between Levison Group and Hilton Hotel Group has been reached, and the signing will be signed next Monday. Wal-Mart has contacted Levison Group in recent days, hoping to discuss the establishment of a Beijing branch in Levison International Center. Levison Group is very concerned about This project is controversial. The presence of Walmart will bring a lot of customers, but it will also bring down the style of the Levison International Center. In addition, the memorandum document also contains a list of all companies that have agreed to enter.”
"The Chinese side has basically agreed with Mr. Mickey Kanter's three conditions on the film industry, which are expected to be implemented together with China's latest "Film Management Regulations" at the end of this month. Boss, we have obtained a "Film Management Regulations" Internal manuscripts, the official text should not have changed much, and I have marked some of them."
"Verizon's first version of its prospectus is scheduled to be filed with the SEC next week, and this is the content document sent over there, marked."
"Brandt completed the negotiation with residents around the location of FusionTimes' headquarters. In addition to the resumes of the latest batch of staff members who were shortlisted for the final interview, I helped the boss arrange the in-person interview schedule for next Wednesday."
"Kevin Watson, an engineer at SpaceX, proposed a plan to build a simulated rocket launch system, which can integrate all the hardware and software equipment required for rocket launches into the simulation system for thousands of virtual launches to test at the lowest cost. Component performance. The engineer proposed this plan during his time at NASA and was rejected many times. However, the SpaceX team agreed that the plan was very usable and could help test most of SpaceX's self-produced accessories, and jointly put the initial The $7 million budget was compressed to, um… $1.2 million. Watson has personally written a set of aerospace electronics systems software with a budget of only $10,000, and I checked that the budget for NASA’s similar projects is $10 million.”
"This information comes from a coffee plantation in Angola, Africa. According to Mr. Victor Mericis' report, by the end of April, the first batch of 50,000 acres of coffee seedlings had been planted there, with a total cost of US$7.35 million. , it is expected that the remaining 100,000 acres of land will be developed and planted in the same period next year, because the foundation for the purchase of agricultural machinery and manpower training has been laid this year. Before the first batch of coffee is harvested, it still needs to invest about 5 million US dollars a year.”
"Mr. Anthony Johnston sent a tender document for the privatization of Vale in Brazil. The Japanese side is very determined to this tender, and it is expected to become the main competitor of Johnston Holdings. I suggest that the boss try to use it. Washington’s connections, and now that the U.S.-Japan trade relationship is making money, Washington certainly doesn’t want Japan to control a large mining giant.”
"Igreat has reached an agreement with the International Olympic Committee to broadcast YouTube videos of previous Olympic events. The YouTube platform did not pay any fees, but promised to promote resources and give long-term advertisements. In addition, Yo
The uTube platform has also quickly negotiated more than 150 top athletes in various fields to enter the YouTube platform. "
"And, um, an email from the White House asking the boss for his opinion on the recent Nasdaq movement, which should be a continuation of that call the other day."
"..."

"Finally, on the Hollywood side, Emmerich's "Soliloquy Day" will start next week, and there will be a pre-launch cocktail party in Los Angeles tonight, hosted by MGM, which mainly entertains "Solitary Day", including five Investors from all sides of the package project are flying, and Ms. Lansing hopes that the boss will be able to attend tonight."
"The 'Tornado' crew has been stationed in Iowa, and filming will officially start next week."
"The set of Titanic on the Gold Coast has been built, however, Mr Cameron has some ideas for special effects and is experimenting with Daenerys' special effects team, and the start date has been postponed to the next moon."
"And, here's the list of movie schedules for this summer's season."
Simon sat behind the desk in the study in the front cabin, listening to Lady A quickly introducing the list of documents that needed to be reviewed. There were also two large piles of documents on the desk in front of him that might not be able to be read in 15 hours.
When girl A finally stopped reporting, Simon had read the first corporate document about Levison International Center, raised a pen to mark a few words on the document, and handed it to Alison: "Tell Levison Group over there. , Walmart must win this project, we don’t need to compare this boring thing with the World Trade Center.”
Girl A nodded and added: "Boss, I think it can be neutralized and put Wal-Mart on the basement level. There are such underground supermarkets in New York and London, which can maximize the use of space and the rent is quite affordable. I think Walmart, which attaches great importance to cost control, will certainly be willing. The above-ground part can still maintain the occupancy specifications of the Levison International Center.”
Simon just opened the second "Film Management Regulations" document. Hearing this, he looked up at Alison and smiled, "I think you should be in charge of this project, there are a bunch of idiots over there."
Lady A bent the corners of her mouth cooperatively, but did not speak.
Levison International Center is currently only a preliminary plan. The specific design will start after the potential users have been roughly finalized. The actual construction is still two years away. The plan to join a supermarket on the ground floor is easy. After a little consideration, Simon nodded: "Just do it like this. , tell that over there, just say that this idea was proposed by me, and let those idiots have a good self-reflection, so I am the super rich."
"Okay, boss."
"Besides, I'll show you the party you just mentioned at night."
The West Coast of the United States happened to be 15 hours later than China. Simon arrived in Los Angeles. It was still Saturday afternoon there, and the evening reception would not be delayed.
Girl A made a quick note on the memo again.
Simon thought for a while and said, "With regard to the three reforms of China's film industry, no surprise, I think China Film took the lead in setting up the first cinema chain. You asked Amy to contact China Film and invited them to visit the United States. The Oden Cinemas under Daenerys Entertainment is in charge of reception, and they can also provide them with cinema management system software.”
Alison did not immediately nod, but said: "Boss, I think it is possible to go to the next level and invite the senior management of the radio and television department in charge of the film and television industry in China to conduct inspections, and directly promote the entire network of China's cinema ticketing system. I recently checked China's Since the cinema industry is basically state-owned, it can be achieved without relying on the cinema system. Moreover, China's basic communication network has already penetrated the whole country. The Shanghai data center that will be opened soon can provide data storage and information processing for this project. There are no obstacles in terms of hardware and software. China is now eager to promote the development of the information industry, and completing this project will also be a very important achievement for the officials in charge.”
"At the same time, it will offend a lot of people," Simon thought about the local theaters that gritted their teeth because the ticketing system couldn't hide the box office, but he couldn't hate himself anyway, so he said: "That's it. Remember to tell there, This idea was also proposed by me, so I am super rich."
Lady A gave someone a light glance, then lowered her head and wrote it down on the memo.
Simon has quickly browsed to the red pen in the "Film Management Regulations" in his hand, which states that the annual screening time of domestic films by a screening unit shall not be less than 2/3 of the total annual screening time of films. I feel that Alison Looking at himself again, he said with a smile, "So, do you have any suggestions for the president's email?"
Girl A shook her head this time: "The Nasdaq is now out of control, and it is the best choice for us not to intervene. Otherwise, once the mishandling causes that one to collapse, no one can take the responsibility."
"Then please help me respond to Mr. President, saying that I am very optimistic about the future trend of the Nasdaq. Anyway, he only hopes that the Nasdaq will last through November. As long as the Republican Party does not jump out and make trouble, this should be no problem."
"Boss, it's enough to only say half of it, you don't need to say it later."
"Of course, should I remind you of this? It's stupid. No wonder I can't be a super rich man like me."
Lady A frowned at someone, pretending to be annoyed, continued to write down on the memo, and looked at Simon again.
Simon thought for a while and said, "That's all for now, and I'll talk about the rest after I finish reading these documents."
Alison nodded, turned and quietly exited the study.
Probably because of inertia at work and out of control, I ate an airplane meal that I don't know what to order, Janet
Went to sleep and came to see again, Simon was still sitting at his desk, 10 hours had passed since the flight, so he drove him to sleep.
When Janet woke up, the plane was already over the west coast of the United States.
After a simple grooming, finding a fixed seat and fastening the seat belt, the Boeing 767 began to lower its altitude and landed smoothly on the Los Angeles National Airport runway a few minutes later.
After leaving for two weeks, I don't have a long-lost feeling of returning to my homeland, but a little drifting away from my hometown.
The security team and the maid guards, who had been traveling for two weeks, were on vacation on the spot. The new team sent by Du Meijia Manor took over the follow-up. Jennifer also came to pick them up. , but Simon remembered to ask how the five little guys are doing recently?
Of course it's fine.
It was Veronica who was watching at home before running to pick up someone.
Um.
The Simon and his wife were away, and Veronica came from Australia on purpose, and has been helping take care of the children at Dumay Cape Manor for the past two weeks.
Sophia also came to stay for a few days.
Because it's Saturday, we're all at home.
Melbourne is still by Veronica's side.
Seattle is still a little cold, holding a tome that doesn't fit her age at all.
Little Nick still has a tendency to use Little White Fang on everything.
The last pair of twins still remembered their father, and even took the initiative to call someone when they were picked up by Simon. Sure enough, their IQs seemed to be slightly higher than that of the two older brothers, but they were not as good as their second sister.
He spent the afternoon happily with his family, unpacking gifts with the children, talking to Jennifer about recent trivial matters, and inspecting the eldest son's recent homework in a decent manner, and had a lively dinner together in the evening.
She didn't remember until 8 o'clock in the evening when Lady A came over to ask if she wanted to go to a certain reception.
Barely rushed to Century City.
After all, this reception is dealing with the behind-the-scenes investors of the packaging plan that Simon personally designed for overseas film capital after the fiasco of "Cut Throat Island".
Among the five projects, "Alien 2" has already started filming and is expected to be released during Easter next year. Roland Emmerich's "Alone Day" will be the highlight of next summer's release, followed by Robert Zemeckis' "Close Encounter" at the end of next year.
These are three of the first five-part package plans.
According to the production plan, the remaining two films will be approved next year and will be released in 1998.
The entire plan is also the focus of MGM's operations other than the Agent Cinematic Universe. As long as it is successfully completed, MGM will basically be able to fully recover.
