Eric said that the exchange condition, Marcel Novares does not want immediately, even if solely only calculates in the Crédit Lyonnais S.A. hand the Metro Goldwyn Mayer 75% stocks, the 1.2 billion USD price somewhat has underestimated, Eric gives the Metro Goldwyn Mayer overall estimate value actually only then 1.2 billion USD, but in the people mouth absolutely did not have any shadow Production Studio, Eric actually directly to give the 800 million USD sky-high price. ●⌒,
„Eric, this condition was too harsh, the Metro Goldwyn Mayer overall market value reluctantly is counted 1.2 billion USD, but Production Studio absolutely is actually unworthy 800 million.”
Eric has not refuted the meaning of Marcel Novares slightly, some smiled to this French man facetiously, the nod said: „Naturally, if you did not agree, can discuss.”
Marcel Novares has gawked, in the attention meeting reception room the vision of other people, cannot bear reveal the forced smile. He realized, in this regard, since Eric has opened the mouth, leeway that Metro Goldwyn Mayer has not bargained back and forth.
Judging from the present situation, Metro Goldwyn Mayer completely is in passive position, reason that by the plan of Production Studio Eric proposed, Hollywood several other big Film Studio definitely are glad to undertake the distribution, Metro Goldwyn Mayer can attain this opportunity, mainly because of Eric individual will, if he does not want to pay attention to Metro Goldwyn Mayer, only needed to assist Metro Goldwyn Mayer 007 series of manufactures to get rid the blackmarket agreement that because GATT (General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade) brought, did not need to make these many.
Thinks of these, Marcel Novares nods reluctantly: „Good, Eric, I will submit this plan as soon as possible to the Board of Directors discussion.”
The matter talked about here, basically made a final decision, was just about to request the people to use the supper as Nicolas Seydoux of master to the dining room, suddenly has thought of an issue: „Eric, you planned that makes Production Studio name?”
Eric wants not to think that somewhat is loaf blurted out: „Called DreamWorks to be good.”
„DreamWorks, good name.”
„Yes, makes DreamWorks, very good implication.”
The people nod to echo in abundance, some Eric actually wicked interests smiled. However, new Production Studio truly and DreamWorks form in original space and time is similar, this name is actually appropriate, but. If Spielberg wants to go all out once more, certainly must be Film Studio chooses other names.
Had supper in the Seydoux Family hotel, Eric has ridden in a carriage to return to the hotel, the time is 10 : 30 pm, Los Angeles that side or operating time. Eric then telephones Los Angeles Firefly Headquarters, today's matter and Firefly Pictures management has carried on a communication, and makes Michael Lynn dispatch a Firefly high level to participate in the negotiations of new Production Studio.
A few days later, Firefly Pictures Vice Chairman rushed to Paris, is responsible for Firefly Pictures in the benefit negotiations of DreamWorks Film Studio, the Europe propaganda last station Madrid has also completed preview ceremony. Meanwhile, the Paris «Jurassic Park» Box Office data also quickly draws a charge, «Jurassic Park» has harvested 2 more than 7 million francs in the French first week, but with 《Germinal》 first week total Box Office that «Jurassic Park» competes, only then more than 6 million franc, although reduces USD. 《Germinal》 production cost only then «Jurassic Park» half, but the 100 million 60 million francs production costs are in the French movie history produce the cost highest movie as before, after the data draws a charge, French media once more in an uproar, one after another requests certainly the French Government attention native place movie.
But Eric is very clear, a lot in have settled down in secret, but at this time is the final stage of GATT (General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade) negotiations, facing insistences of some Europe country government offices, the United States federation has issued an ultimatum once more strongly, before December 15, 1993. If the negotiations of GATT (General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade) have not achieved as before, then the entire agreement will become invalid completely. Europe various countries are very clear, if the agreement becomes invalid really completely, then the international trade will fall into a long time confusion. This is being in the matter that economic resurgence time Europe is unable to withstand absolutely.
Obtains this news time, Eric was leading the «Jurassic Park» Lord create goes to Japan Tokyo, prepared the movie July 29 Japan Tokyo preview ceremony.
Meanwhile, Chris and negotiations of Nokia group have also yielded certain result, the principal shareholders of Nokia group agreed does not involve the two-way charges for cellular phones service several other that Nokia has the company from the group is the peeling, only aims at the Nokia two-way charges for cellular phones department and Firefly continues to negotiate. After this agreement achieves. Property scale that entire negotiations involve will reduce from 1.1 billion USD to 700 million USD about.
Meanwhile, Eric also finds from Chris there, because extrusion of GSM network received the gradual approval of Europe various countries, more communication corporations started to change the research and development of GSM standard mobile phone the vision. Once other mobile communications companies promote the GSM mobile phone promptly, the time and technical superiority that the Nokia group earlier period accumulates will not exist, in this case, the Nokia aspect urgently needs the big fund to pour into, serves as the new mobile phone to the research and development as well as the marketing promotion of product, therefore, superiority of Firefly in negotiations will come more obviously.
The property scale of since involving reduced 700 million USD, Eric had then confessed that Chris does not need to haggle over in fund again, what is most important is more gains the Nokia stockholder's rights share, after regarding mobile phone prospect understood that Chris also agreed with the view of Eric.
Eric and propaganda team stops over in the Tokyo City Center Chiyoda-ku, because of the Japan economy in the 80's continual eruption, the time that at this time the Japan national self-respect most surged upward, after Eric arrived at Tokyo, can very clearly from the contact to Japanese felt that type to be ready to make trouble always wants to make anything's mood.
Tokyo of July is in one year the sultriest time, in addition does not have what favorable impression regarding this country, Eric is not long in the Japan stay, participates in preview ceremony, hastily left Japan, many people of team chose to remain actually, planned that travelled in Tokyo, except for facing each other across the sea several countries, Japan unusual is good, therefore the majority of westerners who maintained at the international image of West was curious to Japan, in addition Tokyo was the «Jurassic Park» propaganda finally one stood, since has completed the work, what Eric has not demanded.
„Alan, you know that I once the dreams, like the migratory bird, can move in childhood throughout the year unceasingly. Seeks the temperature always placed place life.” Led several entourages to alight from the airplane at the Los Angeles international airport, Eric deeply had inspired, to said in Alan.
Alan knows Eric eight -year-old time has moved in Los Angeles along with the father from London, asked with a smile: „Before you eight -year-old dreams?”
Eric has gawked staring. The nod said: „Yes, that you know that the London weather has been awful, I repugnant wet cold environment. Very repugnant.”
Alan smiled, asks: „That afterward?”
„Afterward,” Eric waved as if to hug around the beautiful sunlight: „I discovered that actually Los Angeles is this kind of place, so long as here, has not needed to move.”
„It seems like you do not like the full world flying round very much,” Alan summarized with a smile.
„Naturally,” Eric has smiled.
The Eric traveling schedule has not informed too many people, goes out of the airport, picking is also several service cars that Firefly Pictures sends. Eric also discovered that Jeffrey stands by a business automobile smilingly.
„Jeffrey, how did you come personally?” Some Eric accidents moved forward to meet somebody, hugged with Jeffrey under.
„In the afternoon is just all right, I heard that you come back today, personally came,” Jeffrey answered.
Eric made several follow him to transfer a bodyguard to act on free will on Earth, sent Alan, together boarded a car(riage) with Jeffrey.
„What matter has?” After waiting for car to start, Eric asked Jeffrey.
Jeffrey shook the head with a smile: „Among us was so unfamiliar?”
Eric has gawked, immediately shakes the head. Said: „Naturally is not, I am only some accidents.”
„I today truly am nothing, therefore personally will come,” Jeffrey explained again: „. A minor matter, I went to New York last week, saw two kids.”
„Oh?” Eric shows the doubts expression.
„Kevin and Xiaxia are very adorable,” Jeffrey said one, some embarrassed apertures seem to be ordinary, asked: „Eric. Emily continuously contact with Joan and Vicky is very frequent, you are also quite more than my this father and Chris contact, I want to make you help me ask when their two do marry?”
It seems like cared the wedding that children was the world parents' consistent common failing, Eric has laughed in one's heart at heart, said: „They did not say that planned the 30 year marries again?”
„The 30 year......” Jeffrey curled the lip: „You said that Chris now is big?”
Eric has gawked, he remembers first time sees Chris time, his is 26 years old, three years pass by now......
„29 years old?”
Jeffrey nodded worriedly: „Moreover, I know from Emily father there, actually Emily compared with Chris greatly one year old.”
Eric cannot bear show worried look, lets go saying: „Jeffrey, this matter, I do not have the means to help you, but also needs your this to be the father talks incessantly personally is good, you know, usually is the children most feared the parents have talked incessantly, you said several times, perhaps couldn't they bear marry?”
„Is this method accepted?” Jeffrey inquired about that asked.
Eric thought that Chris and Emily is a that will firm kind of person, this way estimate function is not big, but he cannot think of any appropriate method: „I can only think of this.”
„I try......” Jeffrey to sigh, has not continued to discuss that again this matter, asked: „With that matter of Europe Film Studio cooperation, I knew. However, you did not think us, so long as percent 30 stocks somewhat lowered, at your present sale price, but held the post of Producer enough to take away movie percent 30 advantage moistened?”
„I thought that this matter such does not calculate simply, Jeffrey, you think, what Metro Goldwyn Mayer currently also does have?”
The Jeffrey doubts said: „007?”
Eric said with a smile: „Yes, Metro Goldwyn Mayer can take the chip that gets rid on remaining 007 this now, naturally, I refer to is not this, I meant that Metro Goldwyn Mayer did not have including the square now, sold out by Kirk Kerkorian that old fogy completely even changed to the Metro Goldwyn Mayer hotel, therefore, although recently established DreamWorks Film Studio can start the cooperation with Metro Goldwyn Mayer, but manufacture, DreamWorks must rely on the Firefly resources.”
Jeffrey somewhat transparent nods, he knows that Eric is the budget that the Production Studio ten movies make is eight hundred million USD, by Hollywood on average the production cost of each movie, ten movies wants to spend eight hundred million USD now is not that easy matter. But the photographic base as well as the special effect company of Firefly Pictures will definitely continue the majority of manufacture work, in this case, even if not use any approaches the operation, Firefly Pictures can also make very big sum of money in the producuction process.
„Said that Stan Winston has been selected the place of digital domain new work room, plans to be located in Florida, that side has given three years of tax-free condition, the new subsidiary company plan constructs one about 20,000 square meters work room in the Florida capital,” Jeffrey also mentioned the matter in Firefly aspect quickly.
Although Eric has been paying attention to the services in various Firefly Pictures aspects, but is impossible all affairs big or small to know that in addition he has given the digital domain full autonomy, therefore for the first time hears this news, but, Eric does not have what opinion, three years of tax-free measure, regarding the digital domain is also a good condition, trades to make Eric, will comply, although the development trend in special effect company develops toward the overseas area, but now, the special effect profession profit margin of North America native place is as before rich, the special effect company is in the aristocrat time, even if after the Firefly software company was established, more and more special effect. The work room establishes, cannot change this point temporarily.
„This is also good, after the Firefly software was established, the Los Angeles special effect company will be definitely getting more and more, is located in Florida the subsidiary company is also a good choice,” Eric nods, smiled, said: „Perhaps several years later the time, we must be located in the overseas the subsidiary company.”
„Should this necessity,” the Jeffrey doubts not say.
„Who knows that” Eric let go, his naturally impossible present to explain certain matters like Jeffrey.( To be continued.)( To be continued.)
