I’m in Hollywood - Chapter 927
[Chapter nine hundred and sixteenth reunion after a long absence]
In the past, after Seagram acquired Polygram, due to the unbearable high debt of the company itself and the overall decline of the record industry, it had to sell itself to the French Vivendi Group a few years later.
.
しw0.
Vivendi Group took over Seagram, and it ended with a huge loss within two years. It sold all its entertainment businesses to General Electric again, and General Electric integrated its original nbc TV network with it to form a TV network covering TV. , film, music and other businesses of the nbc Universal Group, but a few years later, General Electric also sold nbc Universal to Comcast.
It can be said that the former Universal was still frequently changing hands when other media groups had gradually stabilized, and Edgar Bronfman’s acquisition of Polygram was absolutely ‘contributed’.
After listening to Eric’s analysis, Elizabeth said: “So, you are determined not to expand the record business?”
“Firefly has Firefly Records enough. According to the current development momentum, it will take another four or five years. , the profit brought by fireflyer players to Firefly Electronics may be more abundant than the total annual profit of the entire record industry. If the proportion of the group’s record business is increased, Firefly will have to consider balancing the interests of all aspects, which will hinder Firefly Electronics. development.”
Elizabeth nodded understandingly, and smiled again: “Oh, I thought you men like the bigger the better.”
Eric raised his head and glanced at Elizabeth’s chest, regretting: “Of course, the bigger the better. It’s a pity, the reality is too cruel.”
“I’ll hit you, show me the script,” Elizabeth raised her small fist in shame, but within a few seconds, she was lying on the desk and came over again He asked in a low voice, “Hey, how much did you make in Southeast Asia this time?”
With the fall of the Thai baht in July, the currencies of Malaysia, the Philippines, Indonesia, Singapore and other Southeast Asian countries plummeted across the board in August, among which the Indonesian rupiah The depreciation even exceeded that of the Thai baht.
“Many contracts have not yet been delivered. If only the book profit is calculated, it should be about 600 million US dollars. Chris has already started to open a Korean won position, and he can make another profit then,” Eric said, looking at Elizabeth: “What about you?”
Eric did not hide the operation of Southeast Asian currency from the people around him, and even encouraged Elizabeth to participate.
It’s just that everyone didn’t gather together, so it would be too conspicuous. Eric didn’t want the trouble of looking for the Firefly Group by the government of Southeast Asian countries in the future.
Elizabeth also knew how much principal Eric had invested, and was surprised: “How did you earn so much? I borrowed $100 million from Dad, and Julia and Julia put together a total of $150 million in principal. Jin, just made less than 80 million.”
“$80 million is not bad,
you guys are a little late in entering the market, and the profit is more than 50%, which shows that the trader you have found is still very capable,” Eric put the face in front of him. The script turned another page, raised his head again, and said, “Listen to what you mean, you have already recovered all the funds?”
“Well, many people say that the currency in Southeast Asia will rebound very quickly. Julia and I I don’t dare to continue. However, the Korean won shouldn’t have too many chances of plummeting
. South Korea is the fattest fish, do you think everyone will let it go?”
“Perhaps, but Julia and I have already bought all the 80 million into stocks, and we can’t go back if we want to.” Elizabeth shrugged and said with a smile: “Well, by the way, we also ordered a Boeing 747-400. If the Nasdaq index doesn’t continue to rise as you said, then you will have to pay. Money.”
Eric said helplessly: “Two planes are enough for everyone, so why buy them?”
“I don’t care, those two planes, one is yours, the other is Drew’s, I and I Of course Julia has to have it too. Anyway, it’s 80 million,” Elizabeth said with a little savage expression, “If you can’t pay the balance then, I’ll give Julia to Boeing, and you can redeem it.”
The Nasdaq index is far from reaching its limit, and it is no problem to rise several times in the future.
Eric is not worried that the $80 million the two of them have invested now will not be able to pay for a Boeing 747, but he is not good at saying: “You might as well give yourself to Boeing.”
Chatting like this, occasionally fighting a few words Mouth, Eric went through the script of “Shrek” in detail, and modified some details according to his memory. When he was about to get off work, Eric handed the script to Elizabeth and said: “Let’s do this first, I will go there in two days. New York, I will personally go to Blue Sky Studio to see the settings and storyboards they have made.”
Elizabeth put away the script and asked curiously, “What are you going to do in New York?”
“This year’s Victoria’s Secret The big show, the fashion week is about to start, they let me go and see, and there are some other trivial things, I have to fly to London after a few days in New York,” Eric simply tidied up the documents on the desktop. Then, put it in the safe, picked up the landline on the table and greeted Caroline and the others, then got up and said, “Let’s go, let’s go eat.”
Elizabeth picked up her satchel and took Eric’s arm. We walked out of the office together, remembered something, and asked, “Then you don’t care about the Emmy Awards?”
Eric shook his head and said, “This is not in a hurry, we will leave after the Emmy Awards.”
In September, with the TV series The fall season is approaching, and America’s most important TV show award, the Emmy Awards, is also held during this time.
Eric didn’t pay too much attention to the Emmy Awards in previous years, but as the TV business of the Firefly system became larger and larger, he also began to devote more attention to this aspect.

Whether it is TVB’s “Friends”, “The Story of the Emergency Room”, “Survivor” or cable TV’s “Sexy City”, “Project Runway” and other programs, they have received a large number of nominations.
Among them, under the operation of Harvey Weinstein, the “Black Road Family” launched by ffm TV station has won 16 nominations, becoming the most dazzling new star in this year’s Emmy Awards process.

In the end, “Black Road Family” won 7 awards including best drama series, best actor, and best actress with 16 nominations, becoming the biggest winner of this Emmy Award.
The celebration party was chosen at the Sunset Tower Hotel on Sunset Boulevard.
Eric did not attend the Emmy Awards in person, but came to the Firefly Group’s celebration party after the ceremony.
Although Harvey Weinstein controls ffm TV, the control is still on the Firefly side, and the celebration banquet of “The Black Road Family” is not specially separated.
Walking into the banquet hall, Harvey Weinstein was the first to greet him, hugged Eric, and did not forget to tease: “Hey, Eric, are you here again tonight?”
Eric is used to attending various occasions alone, and it was not the first time that Harvey had heard this kind of ridicule.
However, hearing Harvey’s words this time, Eric suddenly remembered something, and swept his eyes subconsciously around the banquet hall.
Robert Iger, Anne Sweeney and others who came from New York on purpose also came over at this time, blocking Eric’s sight.
Eric had to smile and greeted Robert and the others one by one.

Eric smiled: “Except Japan, South Korea is the fattest fish in all of Southeast Asia, do you think Will everyone let it go?”
“Maybe, but Julia and I have already bought all the 80 million into stocks, and we can’t go back if we want to.” Elizabeth shrugged and said with a smile: “Well, By the way, we also ordered a Boeing 747-400, if the Nasdaq does not continue to rise as you said, then you will have to pay.”
