"Tsk, it seems that some people said that they have love not long ago," Chen Qing said, put away her nympho expression, and said, "Of course there is a story behind this sentence, but the boss said that he doesn't like it, but just likes this sentence purely." , and plan to rewrite a story based on this sentence in the future and make it into a TV series.”

"It feels a little... messy."

"That's another identity of our boss that you have forgotten. He is a top Hollywood director and screenwriter, and he has won an Oscar."

"That's Hollywood, and..." Mo Yiling said, remembering the only time he spoke with Simon Westeros, the other party's fluent Chinese, and his private understanding of that man, paused, and said: "And China is different."

"Aunt Mo, you are making too much sense. The boss is proficient in Chinese culture, well, let's just say one poem, "The Wind of Yu Ji", Aunt Mo, do you know?"

Mo Yiling shook his head.

"The boss knows it, and when we met for the first time, he could recite it emotionally. Moreover, some time ago, the boss wrote a Chinese song. Well, I can't say more about this. Anyway, you will know it next year. "

Mo Yiling only thinks that the girl in front of her really worships that superior Simon Westeros.For some reason, she was inexplicably worried about her daughter.I've been too busy during this period, and I haven't called for many days. It seems that I should call Beijing tonight.

Chen Qing is really a bit addicted: "Also, about the things we develop and use at the same time, and the suggestion of Jiangnan Fenghua to dig deep into Jiangnan's historical figures and related legends, it was also mentioned by the boss, just like Suzhou. Feng Menglong, who is not as well-known as Tang Bohu, his surprise storybook series will be the focus of Jinshu Media's next TV series development. Jiangnan Fenghua's street gardens will also be designed around these stories. All in all, as long as you meet the boss, experience it for yourself , I can definitely feel what a talented man he is."

Mo Yilingsu held the cup to his mouth, and quietly listened to Chen Qing's description in high spirits, but his eyes narrowed slightly. When Chen Qing finished speaking, his other hand suddenly picked up a spoon next to it, and hit Chen Qing directly. There were three knocks on the forehead.

Chen Qing suffered several pains in a row, and hurriedly dodged, glaring at Mo Yiling who didn't come after him: "Hey, why did you hit me?"

Mo Yiling put down the spoon in his hand, continued to take a sip of tea, and then gave Chen Qing a sideways glance, with a warning, and said viciously: "You know it yourself!"

Chapter 1073 Capping Ceremony

Chen Qing and Mo Yiling took advantage of lunch to discuss some general ideas, and then the Jinshu Department team and district government officials had a detailed discussion for an entire afternoon. The topic was that the Jinshu Film and Television City would be launched at the same time as the Qin Palace project. The two major projects, 'Ming and Qing Palaces' and 'Jiangnan Fenghua'.

The Ming and Qing palaces refer to the Hengdian project in Simon's memory. The theme is very simple, and the Forbidden City is reproduced in full scale.Even, compared with the Forbidden City in Beijing, which covers an area of ​​1080 mu, this Ming and Qing palace project is expected to reach a larger scale of 1500 mu. However, in addition to the palace complex of about 1000 mu, there are surrounding parking lots, etc. matching.

Compared with the simplified version of the Qin Palace, which is expected to cost only 2 million yuan, this time it will be more refined and there are more palace complexes. Although the total area of ​​the project is only 50% larger, the investment in the Ming and Qing palaces will more than triple.

As for Jiangnan Fenghua, it draws materials from historical celebrities, literary stories, folklore, gods and ghosts from the Jiangnan area for thousands of years in China, and designs various antique attractions, such as the "Taohuawu" stripped out by Simon, It should have been the very first among them, but the planned Taohuawu will still be built near Jiangnan Fenghua.

At this meeting, the core planning idea of ​​Jiangnan Fenghua Park was finalized as "a dream for a thousand years". The Spring and Autumn and Warring States Period, Jin, Sui and Tang Dynasties, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, etc., each took materials and finally completed it. The area may reach 2000 mu to 3000 mu. To break through 10 billion.

In order to ensure that these projects can be put into use quickly after completion, in addition to its own various operating methods, the Jinshu Department will also personally enter the market to invest in a large number of domestic TV dramas that are much more in demand than movies at this time. Of course, the main types must be ancient costumes.In addition, as supporting facilities, in addition to the registered Jinshu Artist Agency, Jinshu Catering and Hotel Group, etc., the Jinshu Department will also establish Jinshu Performing Arts School, Jinshu Special Effects Company and other related companies.

After completing this matter, Chen Qing only stayed in Suzhou for one day, and then transferred to Shanghai and Hong Kong respectively. First, she followed up on the recent major investment projects of the Westeros system in China, and then met with the upcoming China Telecom roadshow team. Converged in Hong Kong, and set off on December 12, the first stop is London, which will officially start the IPO roadshow of China Telecom, which will be listed in Hong Kong and New York at the same time with a valuation of US$2 billion.

at the same time.

North America.

Thanksgiving this year is later on November 11.

This Thanksgiving, the Westeros family spent at the manor in the northern suburbs of Greenwich, Connecticut on the east coast. In addition to the East Coast having a more festive atmosphere because of the distinct seasons, there is also the Westeros Mansion that will be held on December 12th. For the topping out ceremony, both Simon and Janet hope to board the long-awaited tallest building in the world as soon as possible.

On the other hand, the most recent concern of the North American media is the 1996 Thanksgiving schedule.

备受瞩目的11月22日到11月28日感恩节当周，人气和口碑都无可匹敌的《神奇女侠2》毫无悬念地一家独霸，无论是此前的《神奇大灌篮》等旧片还是卡在11月27日感恩节前一天上映的迪斯尼老牌动画改编真人电影《101条斑点狗》，都在《神奇女侠2》面前沦为彻彻底底的配角。

In the first week of its opening, the box office of "Wonder Woman 1" finally reached 715 million US dollars, and all 2 films of the DC movie universe have been released. In the movie, this achievement is second only to "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice", which created a super box office miracle in the Christmas file last year.

Facing the impact of "Wonder Woman 2", the No.2 "Star Trek 8" on the list, the single-week box office plummeted from US$3467 million, which had a poor start last week, to US$1594 million, a drop of 54%. The two-week box office cumulatively broke through the 5000 million mark, reaching 5061 million US dollars.

It was followed by No.3 "Space Jam", which dropped 41% in the second week of its release. It seemed to be better than "Star Trek 8", but because the box office base of the film was not high at the beginning, the box office in the next seven days Also only $1479 million.The cumulative box office performance of 3993 million U.S. dollars in two weeks made Warner Bros., who invested a production budget of 8000 million U.S. dollars, want to cry without tears.

No.4 is Disney's "101 Dalmatians".

As the main blockbuster of Disney's schedule at the end of this year, this classic 2D animation adaptation of the live-action movie cost 7500 million US dollars, a complete blockbuster level, and invited the "Little Ghost" which has obviously declined over the years but is still popular. "Home" series creator John Hughes served as writer and producer.

Due to the huge cost and the fact that it is a family carnival movie limited to the festive atmosphere, Disney struggled between the two major schedules at the end of the year, and finally chose the release date of November 11.After all, although the Christmas file is more in line with the theme, due to the pressure of "Wonder Woman 27", there are indeed many films that choose to avoid Thanksgiving and get together for Christmas, and the competition is not much worse than Thanksgiving.

What's more, "101 Dalmatians" is also very suitable for the long-term at the end of the year. If it is put on Christmas, if the word-of-mouth is not good enough, it will only be out in two weeks.

Vivendi, who was afraid that he would repeat Sony's mistakes, was almost staring at the Disney team all the time. In case of failure, many people may lose their jobs.

As a result, the filming was officially started, and "101 Dalmatians" was directly reduced to a failing grade of only about 4 points, whether it was media word of mouth or audience evaluation.Relying on Disney's publicity and the film's festive theme, "101 Dalmatians" managed to earn a box office of US$1017 million in two days, far below Disney's expected box office of US$1500 million to US$2000 million in two days.

Moreover, the follow-up of the film is even more unpredictable.

Again, if there is no strong film competition, "101 Dalmatians" may be able to achieve a good long-term box office with its holiday theme.Now, there is "Wonder Woman 2" before, "James of the Brave" and "Charlie's Angels" later, the quality of the films is not good, and in this fierce competitive environment, it is wishful thinking to go long.

No.5 is still "Annabelle".

This horror film, which seems to be incompatible with the festive atmosphere, has experienced a large drop in the box office for two consecutive weeks. Following last week's 43% drop, this week's "Wonder Woman 2" also fell 39% under the pressure of "Wonder Woman 945".However, compared to other films, "Annabelle" still quietly gained $[-] million at the box office.

In the five weeks since its release, the cumulative box office of the film has reached 1 million US dollars, and it is only a matter of time before the first domestic box office of The Conjuring Cinematic Universe breaks through 3421 million US dollars.

11 month 29 day.

In the new week, except for "101 Dalmatians", which started painting two days in advance, the major studios have not released any new films. Therefore, it has become a key opportunity for the Thanksgiving schedule to achieve box office advancement or reversal.

Of course, there is only "Wonder Woman 2" to try to advance. How high the local box office of the film can eventually go, the trend of the next week is crucial.

For "Space Jam" and "Star Trek 8", the defeat is set, so only "101 Dalmatians" is expected to be reversed. As long as the weekly box office can reach 3000 million, after the momentum of "Wonder Woman 2" slows down, the next curve will be much better.

It's a pity that some people's expectations came to naught three days after the weekend from November 11th to December 29st.

First up is Wonder Woman 2.

In the three days of the next weekend, this DC movie universe blockbuster fell by only 35% year-on-year, and received another US$6965 million. In 10 days of release, the cumulative box office of the film has quickly exceeded 2 million, reaching US$2302 million.This achievement also means that "Wonder Woman 2" surpasses the first US$3.71 million, and even surpasses the local US$4.16 million of "Batman: The Dark Knight Rises" before the Super Bat War, there will not be much suspense.

The question is whether it can break through the domestic $5 million.

If there are no "Game of the Brave" and "Charlie's Angels" in the next Christmas schedule, starting with "Wonder Woman 2", the chances of breaking the $5 million threshold are very high.

Now, it is full of suspense.

For Disney's "101 Dalmatians", on the first weekend after its release, under the pressure of "Wonder Woman 2" and the failure of word-of-mouth, the three days from November 11th to December 29st, the final income was only $12 million.

Even if calculated based on the ideal three-day weekend box office and four-day weekday box office accounted for seven to three points, the complete first-week box office of "101 Dalmatians" is probably only about 2600 million US dollars, obviously not up to the 3000 million expected by Disney. threshold.What's more, the data after the weekend proves that Dalmatians' weekday box office curve is even worse.

Manhattan, New York.

The Westeros Building occupies a full block between 59th and 60th Streets on the east side of Madison Avenue on the Upper East Side.

The time is July 12th, Thursday.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, the highest 135th floor of the building, with Simon and Janet, took off the curtain that symbolically covered the surrounding glass windows. Since the start of demolition in early 1992, it took five years to build, and the bare height reached 622 meters The Westeros Tower, the tallest building in the world, has officially announced its capping.

Even if the subsequent installation of various infrastructures is not counted, the cost of this skyscraper built with all the highest-end materials and technologies at this stage has long exceeded the initial budget of 10 billion US dollars.

The investment figure so far is already 17 billion US dollars. It is expected that all infrastructure installations will be completed in the future, and the total cost will reach 25 billion US dollars. It is definitely the skyscraper with the highest construction cost at this stage.If inflation is taken into account, even after 30 or 2010 years, this record will be difficult to break. After all, the Burj Khalifa completed in 15 cost only US$2013 billion, while the New World Trade Center in New York, which is rumored to be built with the highest safety standards, was completed in 32. The cost is also only [-] billion US dollars.

Therefore, it is basically impossible for Simon to talk about returns for this skyscraper.

With Simon's current wealth, he didn't think about it at all.

Under this premise, the building will not only be built with the highest standards, but will also be operated with the highest standards in the future.

One of the most important is of course safety standards.

In addition to the construction standards that the building itself can easily withstand the largest earthquakes, hurricanes and other natural disasters recorded in the history of the New York area, the safety standards of the entire building in the future will also be designed according to the security level of the private residence of the Westeros family for a long time For example, in 1993, half a ton of explosives was stuffed into the underground parking lot of the Petronas Twin Towers. There is absolutely no chance of this happening in the Westeros Building.

Since the occupancy standard of the planned building is quite strict, Simon also intends to set a relatively low rent. The goal is only that the income of the building can meet the annual maintenance and tax costs. He does not intend to earn a penny, and only requires a popularity.Therefore, the rent of the world's tallest and most advanced skyscraper will be lower than many old buildings in Manhattan in the future.

Of course, the premise is that you can pass the review and be eligible to enter.

These are all later stories.
