Nicole put down the menu in his hand. He was a little puzzled and asked, "Who else wants to challenge the Olympics?"
"Julia is currently preparing a biographical film. According to the progress of preparations, it will probably be shoots early next year and will be released at the end of next year," Eric did not hide, explained, and looked at script in his hand.
The two words on the cover of script, "Moulin-Rouge", translated, is later known as "Moulin Rouge". Even people who have no interest in song and dance films at all, it is hard not to be impressed by the Nicole's unique style in this film.
Eric naturally watched "Moulin Rouge", the film gave him the feeling that the plot is general, and even some clichés, but the beauty of Nicole in the film is to reverse all sentient beings. The Nicole used to be in the 1990s, even though it has the identity of Atangge's wife, in fact it is not very famous. It is through "Moulin Rouge" that many people realize that there is such a Hollywood actress named Nicole · Kidman.
When I heard it was Julia, Nicole had a slightly weird smile on the corner of his mouth, and said, "Then I don't argue with her, hehe. Actually, I haven't thought of anything about Oscar yet, just on this subject More interested, Pat also suggested that I try some new things. Moreover, the investor of script has not yet landed, so I will show it to you. screenwriter Baz Ruman is our Australian, he is on This week I personally rushed to the Nevada "The Mummy3" studio to talk to me about this script, I hope I can participate. "
Hollywood ’s Australian gang has always been relatively low-key. Without United Kingdom to help Actor, the personality and accent are generally distinctive, but this small circle is also quite a group,
It's just that the biggest supporter of Hollywood Australia Gang should be 20th Century Fox under News Corp. Many Australian Director and Actor have emerged through 20th Century Fox's films. Nicole's Buzz Luman is a typical example.
A few years ago, Buzz Luman entered Hollywood's first part work "Romeo and Juliet", which was produced by 20th Century Fox. In this modern version of "Romeo and Juliet", the former actor was Xiao Lizi, but because of the advancement of "Titanic", the actor changed people, but the film's Box Office is still good.
In the past history, Baz Ruman has produced several consecutive films by 20th Century Fox, and has also had very frequent cooperation with Actor such as Hugh Jack Man, Nicole, Kidman and so on from Australia.
Eric opened two pages of script and heard the explanation of Nicole, and asked: "Baz Luman's last work" Romeo and Juliet "Box Office seems very good. I just remember that the film was made by Fox . Why didn't Buzz Luman find Fox cooperation this time? "
"I have already contacted, just because this is a song and dance movie, and there is still no original Broadway popular song and dance movie, so there is not much interest in Fox. The Hollywood last Box Office song and dance movie, um ... I can only think of "Grease" in 1978 for a while, which was 20 years ago. "Nicole slightly tilted his head and thought about it, and added:" And, Buzz Luman needs 60 million USD investment This should be the reason why Fox is not willing to accept this project. 60 million USD is already a big production project, but this movie does not have the potential of Box Office for big production movies. "
Eric remembers that the initial factory label of "Moulin Rouge" was the logo of Fox, but now, the film production department of Fox is in charge of Elizabeth, and many situations have changed.
Thinking about it for a moment, although there is already a conclusion in my heart, Eric cannot nod at this time, but said: "Then I will first look at script, if I feel good, talk to Leeds, continue to let Fox invest, I I do n’t want to complain that she always grabs the project from Fox. If it does n’t work, you can only let Buzz Ruman pull the investment yourself, but as long as you nod to join, I think Buzz Ruman finds Investors are very likely. "
Many projects of Hollywood are to first save the starring lineup and then invest. If you can get the first-line superstar participation contract, Producer can easily lobby Film Studio to invest, or directly raise the production funds through the pre-sale rights.
With global's big-selling "The Mummy" series, and the previous Box Office record of those films, Nicole can definitely be regarded as the most Box Office actress of Hollywood, even stronger than Julia. She nodded to express her interest in the project. Hollywood is willing to invest in Film Studio.
Nicole nodded and said: "Okay, but this script is actually not very good. What I appreciate more is the concept of shoots portrayed by Buzz Luman. He hopes to use a very gorgeous paper drunken image style Show this story, so you better take the time to talk to Buzz Luman in person. "
Eric smiled and said: "Since you like this story so much, then I can simply agree to it."
"Okay, you dare to promise that I dare to nod your head, and give you a 10% discount for the film reward," Nicole raised her lips, staring at Eric, saying: "However, in this case, you better not let Fox While investing, I do n’t want to make a loss, Leeds privately pricked me as a villain. "
"Well, I don't want to," Eric said with a fearful expression, jokingly. After seeing the waiter approaching with lunch, the two temporarily stopped talking. After the other party put down the tray and left, Eric just said seriously: "Then wait for me to watch script, take time to chat with Yabazi Luman. You Here, how long will you stay in Los Angeles? "
Nicole is currently in "The Mummy3" of shoots Universal Pictures, and also guest starred in the "The Mummy" series of "Scorpion King", Eric thought she left the group at this point, probably for the "Scorpion King" that will be released next week. "Premiere. It's just that the release date of "Scorpion King" is on the 17th, and there are still ten days left until now. Even if the premiere is held a few days in advance, Nicole seems to come back a little early.
Nicole picked up the cutlery and cut the steak, sipped, said: "I only took two days off, tomorrow for an endorsement brand shoots print ads, The Day After Tomorrow will return to Nevada."
Eric secretly overcame a psychological obstacle, and then picked up the knife and fork in front of him, said: "I thought you came back for the premiere of" Scorpion King "."
"Well, you have to come back again next week, you do n’t know how much the crew will burn in a day, how can I leave for so long," Nicole said, seeing a slightly struggling expression on Eric, smiling Yang Yang raised his knife and fork and ridiculed: "If you use mine, I tried poisoning Oh. Look, I'm fine."
Eric smiled and cut the steak in front of him. He has been working hard recently to reverse his increasingly serious tendency to cleansing, and said: "Maybe it is a special poison. I have seen some martial arts movies in the East. There is a poison called, um, three steps down, wait for you to get up, take three steps, and then there is no more. "
"Oh, how could there be such a poison, it doesn't make sense at all?"
"I think it makes some sense. This should be similar to blood toxoids. Just like snake venom. Once poisoned, once the mood is agitated or struggling, the heart beats and the blood flow speeds up, and the toxin attack speed becomes faster." Eric finished this and turned to say: "Since I only come back for two days, accompany me at the studio in the afternoon. The suggestion you just made helped me solve a big problem. Maybe I can help me think about it again. Great idea, we will go back to Malibu together at night. "
"Not this time," Nicole shook his head regretfully, saying: "I happen to have some other things. I can't accompany you in these two days."
Eric doubt: "Well?"
"I am a friend. She came from RB and wanted to develop in Hollywood. In the afternoon, I took her to see Pat and asked Pat to help her arrange a manager. She is my girlfriend. If you have free time, of course you should accompany her to get acquainted with Los Angeles. "
Eric is more curious: "Do you still have Asian-American friends?"
Nicole shook his head and said: "Not Asian, she is also Australian, but she has been working in RB a few years ago."
Eric just got skewed by Nicole, but she said here, Eric immediately reacted, Nicole ’s girlfriend, that ’s not Naomi · Woz.
Slowly cutting the steak, Eric said casually: "Since it is your good girlfriend, then bring it to know."
Nicole glanced at Eric lightly and said, "I'm afraid to bring it to you, and she and I will soon be no girlfriends."
Eric looks innocent: "You are so bad, the most basic trust between people."
Nicole tone quietly said: "The ghost will believe you asshole, Jenny hasn't said anything to me in recent years."
Eric immediately raised his hand and surrendered: "Okay, I'm guilty, but now I've changed my way to evil."
Nicole lost his eyes again, and said, "I don't believe you will change evil now."
The two were eating and chatting, and the Nicole ’s mobile phone rang. Listening to Nicole ’s lower voice, Nina Minami yelled in excitement. Eric immediately confirmed the identity of a girl over there.
It's just that Nicole looks like a fireproof, anti-theft and anti-someone person. Eric would not dare to mention Naomi. Watts again. When Nicole hurriedly hung up the phone, Eric took the initiative to change the subject.
Having lunch and sending Nicole away, Eric took the copy of "Moulin Rouge" script left by her back to the "Gravity" studio, and began to discuss with Nickel.Frank and the props who came over to set up a safety slide in the light box Things.
Compared with Eric's methodical life rhythm in Los Angeles, New York, many people feel up and down like roller coasters these days.
At the end of June, due to the pressure of all management to resign, Firefly Investment Company abandoned its plan to replace AOLCEO and re-determine the company ’s development direction, and finally even completely abandoned the constraints on AOL. All three AOL directors of the Firefly system resignation.
Under the stimulus of a series of positive news on the operation of Steve Case, after a brief shock, the AOL stock price began to climb again. As of last Friday's close, the AOL stock price has rushed to 281.01USD, with a market value exceeding 46100 million.
On the day of Monday, at the small press conference held by ABC Group because ESPNTV StationCEOSteve.Bourne Stan resigned, I did not know whether it was intentional or unintentional. Robert. Iger faced the reporter ’s question and publicly confirmed that Firefly investment will be in the future News of substantial reduction of AOL stock within a few months.
The media and the market have always been rumored that Firefly Group will reduce its shareholding of AOL10% at a time. At this time, it was confirmed by the core senior executives of the Firefly system, and Wall Street was suddenly in an uproar.
Some people with a little common sense of stocks know what disastrous consequences a large-scale shareholder reduction of corporate shareholders like Firefly Investment will have.
Under the market panic, the stock price of AOL, which was still up on Monday, plunged 5.7% again on the day, and the next day, the stock price fell by 3.3% again. In just two days, the market value of AOL rose from 46100 million USD The high fell to 41.9 billion USD, and wealth beyond 4billion USD disappeared.
In order to boost market confidence, AOL continued to absorb the stocks sold in the market using the funds raised by management, while Steve Case decisively released the AOL financial report for the second quarter of 1998 in advance.
From April to June, in three months, AOL ’s second quarter revenue reached 9.2.2 billion USD, and the single-quarter net profit was 1.3.5 billion USD, although the quarterly net profit of 1.3.5 billion USD was not much, but it was the same The ratio has increased by almost 70%. This performance growth rate is rare in the entire United States.
At the same time, AOL predicts that according to the current growth rate, the company's full-year net profit will reach 500 million USD, which has almost doubled compared with last year.
If AOL can maintain such a high growth rate continuously, then, within five years, the price-earnings ratio of AOL can return to the normal level below 30.
On the other hand, the high-speed expansion trend demonstrated by the Internet also proves that AOL has this kind of performance growth potential.
After bragging about the excellent quarterly earnings report, AOL's stock price finally stopped the trend of continuous plunge.
It is just that, under the shadow of Firefly investment reduction, the market's attitude towards AOL stocks has begun to become more cautious.
In the Manhattan World Trade Building, Morgan Stanley ’s Chairman office, unconsciously another Friday came, but John.Mark did not have any thoughts to consider the weekend rest.
Since Eric mentioned the Russia ruble last week, he has been reading the Russia economic information for the past few days. The more he learns, the more he realizes that John.Mark is the correctness of Eric ’s original opinion. Russia ruble is not at all. May escape the fate of plunge.
Not to mention others, just the current external debt scale of Russia reaches 1more than 20 billion USD, and a large part of them are short-term external debts of the nature of demolishing the east wall and making up the west wall.
On the other hand, the entire Russia, which is used to resist foreign exchange financial risks and repay foreign currency reserves due, is only 13.6 billion USD, which is almost one-tenth of the Russia external debt.
It is entirely conceivable that once the international currency speculators attacked the Russia ruble, Russia simply did not have any power to fight back.
Looking at the information in his hand, the assistant of John.Mark knocked on the door and handed over a folder and said, "Mr. Mark, this is a rough data analysis of Nasdaq at the close of the market today, and the latest of AOL. Stock information. "
