Across America, Starting with the Boxing Champion

Chapter 431 Inside and outside the door (4/10)

 “Alex, you are more beautiful in person than on the screen.”

 In the office, Ivaca looked at Alexandra Daddario and praised her.

 “Eva, you are truly beautiful.”

Dadario also looked at Miss Ivaca opposite.

Being both from New York City, she had already heard about the eldest daughter of the Thompson family. She heard that she was not only beautiful, but also a smart, capable and knowledgeable business woman.

 After seeing her in person, Daddario had a clearer understanding of her. She had a cool and elegant appearance, dignified temperament, and a kind of elegance and nobility that ordinary girls did not have.

There is also her figure. In the past, Daddario was most proud of her figure. She was tall and sexy, with full **** and a slender waist.

After meeting Ivaca, I found that Ivaca’s figure was not inferior to mine at all.

She is two to three inches taller than herself, and the curvature and shape of her **** and hips are close to perfect. Even a girl finds her sexy, let alone a boy.

 What she admires most about Ivaca is her elegant, confident, and generous temperament. She looks like a strong woman from the inside out.

 “Alex, let’s sit down and talk.”

Ivaca pointed to the chair next to the coffee table.

D'Addario put down his small satchel, brushed his skirt and sat down on the opposite side, crossing his calves.

  —

“Chairman, would you like to sit down first?”

Outside the office door, when he heard Vivian shouting, Link looked back at the chair, shook his head, stood in the aisle with his arms folded, and continued to look at the cars and pedestrians on Street 12 downstairs.

The sun was shining brightly outside, but it had only been in the sun for a day. The palm leaves on the roadside were slightly curled, and the asphalt road was filled with green smoke. Even through the glass, he could feel the temperature outside the window.

 At this time, the temperature in his heart was no lower than outside, and he was a little anxious.

 He ​​can't guess what the two will talk about, and he doesn't know what the outcome will be. No matter what the outcome is, it will be of little benefit to him. When it comes to emotional issues, he prefers to be content with the status quo, and it is best not to change anything.

“Chairman, would you like some water?”

Vivian walked up to him holding a bottle of mineral water.

Link said thank you, opened the bottle cap and took a sip, then continued to look out the window.

Secretary Vivian returned to her desk and sat down. Xina, the office assistant next to her, pointed at Link, imitated his frown, and sighed softly.

Vivian covered her mouth and chuckled.

“He deserves it. With a beautiful woman like our boss still randomly picking up girls outside, he should be allowed to experience this kind of thing a few more times.”

Hina with a round face covered her small mouth with her hand and muttered softly.

 “Hush, don’t talk nonsense!”

Vivian raised her index finger and glanced at Link's back. Seeing Link turning his head just now, she suspected that Link heard Sheena's murmur.

"I'm not talking nonsense. Although Link is very powerful, our boss is also super good, so beautiful, so capable, and I don't think he is too philandering. Our boss is definitely the best and best woman in the world."

 Hina said softly.

 “Hush!”

Vivian typed a few words on the document, turned the screen towards Sheena, and the screen said Link had good hearing, be careful if you are heard, and you will be fired.

 Hina stuck out the tip of her tongue and returned to her seat to continue sorting the documents.

Link glanced at the round-faced assistant, who was probably born in the 1990s and was as talkative as Selena.

He couldn't continue to stand in the aisle, picked up a movie magazine, and sat on a chair to read.

 “Chairman!”

While reading the film review of "Midnight in Paris", the head of the production department, Jon Feremey, came from the aisle with his assistant and said that he had something to report to Ivaca, and it was about the movie.

Link said that Eva was busy and asked what movie it was.

Felleme sat down opposite and reported to him the discussion of "Escape from Tehran".

Since Ben Affleck’s last movie did well at the box office and this script is also good and has certain market potential, the production department also agreed to invest 15 million to participate in the production of this movie.

 It’s just that I have no money temporarily, to be more precise, I will have no money within the year.

 Most of the company's existing funds are spent on the two blockbusters "The Hunger Games" and "The Expendables 2", as well as the newly added "The Oath", with an investment of 30 million US dollars.

The remaining funds are barely enough to make a few small-budget horror movies, and there is no extra money to invest in new film projects.

 The production department suggested that filming of "Escape from Tehran" should not start until next year, so the pressure on the company will be less.

Link thought for a moment and suggested going to the bank to borrow another loan.

 Lionsgate Pictures has good assets of RMB 4 to 5 billion and currently has foreign debt of RMB 180 million. It will not be a problem to borrow another RMB 2 to 300 million. Feremei hesitates, saying that there are currently too many projects invested and a lot of debt, which has led to a significant reduction in the company's ability to resist risks.

 If the box office performance of "The Hunger Games" and "The Expendables 2" next year is not satisfactory, the company's situation will be even worse, just like "Cutthroat Island" is produced by Carlock Pictures, and "Windtalker" is produced by MGM Pictures.

In fact, the reason that led to MGM's bankruptcy was not that "Windtalker" was too poor at the box office, but that before Windtalker was made, MGM had nearly $5 billion in debt, and MGM Pictures' market value at the time was only 4.1 billion.

MGM originally wanted to win back its reputation with "Windtalkers," but it didn't want the box office to be so poor that it would become the straw that broke the camel's back.

There is also a similar problem with Carlock Films.

Link understands his concerns. They don't have the foresight to know whether movies like "The Hunger Games" will be a hit or whether the company's situation will improve next year.

When executing these plans, they are like a group of people walking blindfolded. They need to carefully **** their way forward in the dark so as not to fall into a pit.

Link knows that "The Hunger Games" will be a big hit. As long as "The Oath", "Moneyball" and "The Evil Dead" and other movies are shot according to the original version, they will not be bad at the box office. "The Expendables 2" has undergone major changes. Will it be a big hit? Between the two.

He has some foresight about the box office performance of these movies, has a more positive and optimistic attitude, and takes longer steps when walking.

 Felleme and others do not have this advantage, so he will lead these people forward.

He told Feremei to go ahead and if the box office of these movies was lower than expected, he would consider additional investment in Lionsgate to help the company tide over the difficulties.

Felleme was relieved after hearing his assurance.

Link asked again about recent movie releases.

In addition to "Bridesmaids" and "Mr. Tree," the company has four other films lined up for release, "The Fighter," "The Devil's Stand," as well as the action movie "The Doomed" starring Taylor Lautner and Lily Collins, and Palm Beach Films. "Help" is produced solely by the industry.

 The first three films received average reviews during internal test screenings, and box office expectations were not high, so they may lose money.

The test screening results of "The Help" have been good. This film talks about the issue of racial discrimination, has a high quality of completion, and has certain box office potential. The company will also increase its publicity and promotion efforts when it is released.

“Eva, it’s settled, let’s go shopping together when we have time.”

While chatting, the office door opened from the inside, and Alexandra Daddario walked out of the room and said goodbye to Ivaca, carrying a small satchel and a sweet smile on her rosy cheeks.

 “Okay Yanni.”

Ivaca smiled softly, hugged Dadario, looked at Link and said, "Link, do you have time? Go and see Yani off."

Link listened to her talking, and felt his scalp tightening.

Although Ivaka has a better relationship with Daddario and others, and she has less troubles, it is not good for women to be too close to each other. It feels like there are some unknown risks lurking in it.

 “No need, I drove here.”

Dadario said with his big eyes blinking.

 “I’ll take you downstairs.”

Link pulled Daddario and turned a corner into his office.

Evaca saw the backs of the two of them at the door and pursed her lips slightly. Suddenly she noticed that Jon Feremei was also there. She sat down where Link was sitting and took a sip of the water that Link left. , asking what job Felleme had.

  —

 “Yani, what were you talking about just now?”

With a click, Link closed the office door and looked at Daddario, who was wearing a women's suit and a knee-length skirt with a **** figure.

 “Don’t tell you.”

Dadario smiled slightly, turned to look at the environment of the office, and said that his office was very big.

 “A girl’s secret?”

“No, it’s just a secret between Eva and I. We talked about some of our own things, mainly about work.”

 D'Addario smiled.

Link saw that the innocent Daddario also started to be careful, worried that she was being led astray by Evaca, and had to correct it in time.

He walked over and put his arms around Daddario's slender waist, looked into her big eyes, and kissed her on the tip of her nose.

“Yani, I have no other intention, I’m just worried that you will be wronged.”

“Don’t worry, I’m not wronged. Ivaca is a great girl and is very good at communication. We can chat easily.”

Dadario also hugged his waist and said softly.

Link secretly screamed. With Taylor's strong and stubborn temperament, after talking to Ivaca, he also praised Ivaca as a great woman. Last time Jennifer Lawrence went to Ivaca's apartment and said afterwards that Ivaca was a great woman. Waka is cool, you should learn from her.

 Now that Daddario has met her, he is full of praise for her.

 In this situation, it’s not like I’m running a harem, but Eva is running one.

 “Is that so? I’m glad you guys had a good time chatting.”

Link held Daddario's waist and leaned against the solid wood desk. He lowered his head and pursed her red lips. His palms slipped into the inner lining and caressed the girl's waist and buttocks.
