Chapter 679: True love in true love

San Francisco, Bay Area.
Brown Wilson of Twentieth Century Fox is here in talks with Davis, president of Photobucket.
"How are you thinking?" Brown-Wilson asked: "Join Fox, your company will not only get sufficient funds, but also the support of the entire Fox platform."
Davis didn't want to offend the people of this entertainment giant company, and put his attitude very low: "Mr. Wilson, thank you 20th Century Fox for your attention, but I'm very sorry..."
Brown-Wilson frowned: "The price is not satisfied? Photobucket is a new company, and the $30 million investment is already a premium."
Davis was very clever, and immediately answered: "Netflix offered $35 million to Photobucket."
Brown Wilson asked: "Netflix? Which Netflix under Relativity Entertainment?"
"Yes, Netflix." Davis said directly: "Netflix is ​​very sincere. In the past two days, Netflix CEO Mark Randolph personally came forward and conducted detailed negotiations with Photobucket. Reaching an agreement, we will have better development when we enter Netflix."
Brown-Wilson thought it was a question of quotation, and said: "Twentieth Century Fox's bid will not be lower than Netflix."
"It's not a question of money." Davis judged from these words that Fox could not pay too high a price, and some thoughts were lost: "Netflix's platform is more suitable for Photobucket."
Seeing that Brown-Wilson wanted to refute and didn’t want to get into a stalemate with 20th Century Fox, Davis explained:
As far as I know, the Internet business of 20th Century Fox is not even marginal. Now it is entering the Internet industry. , It’s just a newbie in this industry. Your traditional media platform is not suitable for putting it on the Internet, but Netflix is ​​different. This is an extremely mature Internet company and even a leader in a certain Internet industry. Twentieth Century Fox It’s simply not comparable to Netflix on the Internet."
Hearing this, Brown Wilson's face was a bit ugly, but he couldn't refute it because it was a well-known fact.
Davis said again: "I'm very sorry, Mr. Wilson, Photobucket has decided to accept Netflix's offer." But in the end he still had a hint of illusion: "Unless 20th Century Fox makes it impossible to refuse."
Brown Wilson nodded: "I understand." He took the initiative to end the meeting: "Let's stop here."
It is impossible for Fox in the 20th century to pay a price far exceeding the actual value for such a small Internet company.
The previous price of 30 million US dollars is a premium in itself, 35 million US dollars can be said to be the limit of the 20th century Fox, it can not be higher.
Davis did not entangle himself, and said: "I hope there is still a chance for cooperation."
With a few polite words, he left.
The situation is very clear. Twentieth Century Fox does not have Internet thinking at all, and does not understand the importance of Photobucket's technology for Internet photo sharing and processing, or Netflix can see the actual value of Photobucket.
This is not only a question of money, nor is it a question of money. When the acquisition amount is not much different, a suitable platform is undoubtedly more important.
Brown-Wilson just returned to the hotel and received several calls. Several companies that had been discussed before have postponed the subsequent negotiations.
The reason is not difficult to find, almost all the same: Netflix has also quoted those companies!
In the afternoon, Brown Wilson returned to Los Angeles and reported the latest situation to Jim Proceedings.
"Obviously," Jim Prolos said calmly, "Ronan Anderson's hand stretched out."
Brown-Wilson said: "Acquisitions may significantly exceed the budget. Originally, our plan was to acquire Internet companies for $1 billion and then integrate and develop. However, we will increase investment in acquisitions and subsequent integrated development funds..."
Jim Prolos shook his head: "Don't worry, I will think of a way. Lehman Brothers has long-term cooperation with us and can apply for another loan from them."
Brown-Wilson added: "I have let people make an estimate. Netflix suddenly appears to participate in the competition, and we may pay more than 70 million US dollars."
Jim Prolos said: "Go ahead, Twentieth Century Fox needs Internet business."
Compared with Relativity Entertainment, all Hollywood companies started late on the Internet, one step behind, step by step.
Hughes Aircraft Factory, Burbank, Los Angeles.
After Howard Hughes’s aircraft company was divided and sold, the huge repair sheds and hangars that Hughes bought from Lockheed in Burbank were transformed into studios by Hollywood.
Due to the huge space of the hangar, it is especially suitable for large-scale interior layout.
Some of the interior scenes of the "Iron Man" crew, especially the scenes of Tony Stark being imprisoned in a cave to make the Mark generation escape, will also be shot here.
Today, the hangar once used to maintain and repair aircraft has been transformed into a huge cave.
Ronan, accompanied by Kevin Feige and Jon Feirue, saw the interior layout of the studio, and then went to a nearby office building.
"By the way, the young actress you recommended last time is the one called Curty Horn."
The three people walked and talked, and Kevin Fitch said to Ronan: "After the audition, we have signed a contract with her."
Ronan asked curiously: "Which role? You wouldn't give her the heroine, would you?"
"Of course not." The person who took the call was Jon Feiru: "Kate Horne is less than twenty years old, too young. She has been given the role of a female reporter."
Ronan nodded and said, "She herself has no special requirements in this regard."
Kevin Fitch said: "Yes, I can tell that Curty Horn is more out of interest."
Jon Feiru joked: "If my dad is the co-chairman of Disney Pictures, I will only do things that interest me."
Ronan and Kevin Fitch both laughed. Hollywood has always been unequal.
Curty Horn’s father, Alan Horn, carried the scapegoat of the failure of "Catwoman" and resigned from the Warner Bros. Pictures Company in an infighting with Kevin Tesohara, but Allen- Horn's situation is basically clear in the industry, and everyone knows that the direct responsibility for the failure of "Catwoman" is not on him.
So, just like Coty Horn said to Ronan, Alan Horn, an unemployed man who suffered a mid-life crisis, soon succeeded in getting a job again and accepted Walt Disney’s employment as a Disney Pictures company. Co-chairman.
But outsiders don't know which side Alan Horn is leaning toward in the Disney fight.
"It's a pity, Jon, you don't have a billionaire father." Ronan also joked: "Otherwise, if you mess up this movie, I can drive you home to inherit billions of dollars and let You have been sad for a lifetime."
Jon Feiru, a fat man, is quite humorous: "How can it be sad? I laugh when I dream."
Kevin Fitchra returned to the subject and said: "The heroine audition is over. Jon and I have two candidates, Gisele Bunchen and Carolina Kokova. They look good enough to support. In the role of the vase, the acting is not excellent, but it is also above the minimum baseline."
Ronan nodded and said: "Two Victoria's Secret Angels, not bad." He also had doubts: "Giselle Bonchen is Brazilian, and the setting of Pepper..."
Having said that, he himself shook his head first, because he had seen Gisele Bunchen next to Leonardo.
Jon Feiru said: "Relatively speaking, the Latin characteristics of Gisele Bonchen are not obvious. She looks more like a traditional white man. As for Carolina Kokova, this aspect does not exist. The problem."
Kevin Fitch said: "Giselle Bunchen has made a world of fashion in the fashion industry, but not the top level. She is also committed to developing a second career. She has a collaboration with Relativity Entertainment and starred in "Wearing Prada demon"."
When he came to the door of the office building meeting room, he slightly lowered his voice: "Today, Leonardo came with Gisele Bonchen."
"Leo." Ronan couldn't help laughing: "I haven't seen him for a long time."
Entering the conference room, the two people inside immediately attracted Ronan's attention, it was Leonardo DiCaprio and Gisele Bonchen.
Leonardo took the initiative to shake hands with Ronan: "It's been a long time, Ronan."
"Yes." Ronan and Leonardo had already said that they were unhappy. The two were not friends, nor enemies: "You have gained a lot."
He looked at Gisele Bunchen: "Leo, from you, I can smell a smell called happiness."
These words made Gisele Bunchen laugh happily. He was very impressed with Ronan, and quickly shook hands with him: "Hello, Ronan, it should not be the first time we have met."
Ronan said, "I greeted you and Leo at parties before."
Gisele Bonchen remembers that Ronan had close ties with the modeling circle before, and it seemed that there were two supermodel ex-girlfriends.
After the three people greeted, Gisele Bunchen introduced Jon Fyjou and Kevin Fitch to Leonardo.
With the maturity brought by age and experience ~EbookFREE.me~ Leonardo is no longer the after the big ship, and the whole person seems to have become a different look, and the mentality of dealing with others is very peaceful.
It seems to have found true love.
Whether Leonardo can accompany the crew, or Ronan's crew, who has had conflicts, is enough to show that Leonardo attaches great importance to Gisele Bonchen.
Leonardo's true love is always the same, it has not changed for decades.
If you have to find a further true love in true love, it must be Gisele Bonchen.
The Brazilian supermodel has been dating Leonardo for more than four years, which is unique in Leonardo's past love history.
But Leonardo seems to separate love and one-night stand very clearly, and I don't know how many times between the two because of Leonardo's lace.
They are also favorites of Los Angeles gossip media, and they produce too much news.
