Hollywood Hunter

Remember in one second [End of the God Station] Mobile phone user input address: m.xinwanben.com

Since he entered the media's field of vision with the script of "The Butterfly Effect", Simon has basically been in the media spotlight for two years.

However, Simon's previous influence was more limited to Hollywood.

Even at the end of last year, the pioneering work that suddenly made more than one billion US dollars from the stock index futures market began to fade away after several media hype. Billion-level wealth is too far away from the life of the general public, and it is difficult for too many people to understand what this means.

However.

When "Forbes" magazine's new year's list was released, it ranked 16th in the world and ranked third in the United States, which instantly visualized Simon's personal wealth.

In just two years, Simon has jumped from an unknown person who had no connection with the rich list to the third richest person in the Federation. Moreover, he is only 20 years old, and he is generally in the 50s and 60s on the list. Among the old men, it was even more dazzling.

This miraculous creation instantly made him the focus of attention throughout the United States and even the world.

While many people are envious and amazed, they can't help but once again have a strong doubt: Why was Simon Westero able to do this, and what happened?

In the following weekend, almost all the mainstream media in North America and even the world were discussing all kinds of bits and pieces about Simon in a boiling manner. "Forbes" magazine's estimate of Simon's personal net worth has also become the focus of controversy.

Although "Forbes" gave a very detailed evaluation basis, most of the media still made various redesigns in order to attract attention. In similar discussions, many people even prefer that Simon's personal net worth should be higher, not only $3.1 billion.

Simon's stock assets and debt figures are irrefutable, and the focus of the discussion is on Daenerys Entertainment's valuation.

Through the analysis of the various types of businesses under Daenerys Entertainment, many media found that even though the company paid a lot of operating and debt costs in merging with New World Entertainment and maintaining various other businesses, Daenerys Entertainment 1988 The expected net profit after tax will likely also not be less than $200 million.

After all, just for "Who Will Be a Millionaire", the $2 million per issue plus the pilot episode and very substantial sponsorship revenue can bring Daenerys Entertainment more than $200 million in total. Earning money, the production cost of this reality show is only about 20 million US dollars.

In addition to "Who Will Be a Millionaire", Daenerys Entertainment's other businesses are also lucrative.

Therefore, the net profit scale of 200 million US dollars is completely reasonable.

The market value of many companies is roughly equivalent to the size of the net profit multiplied by the price-earnings ratio. In the stock market, the company's price-earnings ratio is usually between 10 times and 30 times.

That would give Daenerys Entertainment a valuation of $2 billion, even at just a low price-to-earnings ratio of 10. In fact, the stocks of Hollywood-like listed companies in the North American stock market generally have a price-earnings ratio of about 15 times. Looking at Daenerys Entertainment, according to the company's ultra-high growth momentum, if it is a listed company, because the capital market is optimistic, it is fully capable of obtaining a price-earnings ratio of 30 times or even higher.

The price-earnings ratio is 30 times, and the net profit scale is 200 million US dollars.

The result could not have been more obvious, and Daenerys Entertainment's market value would thus reach $6 billion.

Counting other assets such as stocks in Simon's name and subtracting debts, his personal net worth will reach 7.6 billion US dollars, a figure that can even make Simon surpass Sam Walton as the richest man in the United States, even on a global scale, Simon's ranking can also rise to sixth.

When the relevant data came out, someone immediately refuted that in the whole of Hollywood, if you don’t count the other assets of the parent company, there is no movie company with a market value of $6 billion. In addition to the copyright of a series of film and television works, Daenerys Entertainment's other net assets are pitiful, and it is impossible to reach this number.

However, someone soon gave an example. Microsoft Corporation, which is heavily owned by Westeros, had a net worth of less than $5 million during its IPO in 1986, but its market value exceeded $300 million on the day it went public.

In comparison, Daenerys Entertainment’s net worth far exceeds this figure, but the copyright value of “Who Will Be a Millionaire” can reach hundreds of millions of dollars, which is enough to cover all the liabilities of Daenerys Entertainment , Daenerys Entertainment has received hundreds of film and television copyright assets of various types from New World Entertainment, as well as a series of projects previously owned by Daenerys Films, all of which are of considerable value. The combination between Daenerys Pictures and New World Entertainment has achieved far more than one plus one effect.

When it comes to New World Entertainment, someone immediately suggested that Daenerys Pictures only spent $250 million to acquire all the shares of New World Entertainment. Before that, Daenerys Pictures was not even as good as New World Entertainment. After the merger, Daenerys Entertainment has to bear a total of $350 million in debt. Considering the strong uncertainty in the operation of the film and television entertainment company, the valuation of Daenerys Entertainment can only reach a maximum of $1 billion.

The media was buzzing, but Simon didn’t have any mind to pay attention to it. He even regretted not cooperating with the statistics of Forbes magazine and keeping his personal assets as low as possible. Throughout the weekend, Simon spent all kinds of disturbances. Although he really wanted to fly to Australia in advance to be more clean, avoiding is obviously not the way to deal with things, and he even had to postpone the date of rushing to Australia again.

In just two days, too much has happened around the release of the Forbes Rich List.

Early on Saturday morning, Simon received a call from Robert Iger from New York. I don't know if it was influenced by media public opinion or something else. CBS suddenly changed its attitude and hoped to get "Beverly Jiao" again. "Wife" broadcast rights, not only willing to accept the various conditions of Daenerys Pictures, on the basis of the same offer as HBO of 600,000 US dollars per season, cbs also agreed to order the complete 23 episodes.

Daenerys Entertainment had already decided to sign a contract with hbo next week, but cbs temporarily changed its mind, which immediately made the matter again twists and turns.

However, Simon did not hesitate too much. Between the still very powerful public television network in this era and hbo with a small audience, he decisively chose the former. In addition, Terry Semel, who has been silent since contacting Simon some time ago, also hopes to talk to him about cooperation again. There are a lot of things on the weekend, and Simon can only make an appointment for lunch on Monday.

Monday, August 29.

At the end of the summer, there was finally a rare rainy weather in Los Angeles. Simon should have boarded the plane to Australia with Janet today, but because of the sudden incident last Friday that disrupted many things, he had to today. Continue to rush to the company.

Malibu villa.

Looking at Janet who came over to tie her tie carefully, feeling the cool wet wind blowing in from the outdoors, Simon lowered his head and kissed the woman's face, then smiled and said, "It's not because you're in a bad mood. "That's what the weather is like outside, isn't it?"

Janet let Simon kiss her sideways, opened her small mouth at him, but didn't bite, and said, "If I have this ability, at least there will be hailstones outside."

Simon smiled and said: "The day after tomorrow, I can definitely set off, I promise."

Janet pouted: "A man's guarantee is the most unreliable."

Simon is helpless: "Okay."

Janet put on her tie, took a step back and looked at it, nodded to herself, and added, "Actually, Sophia flew over from France today, and she should arrive at nine o'clock."

After returning from Cannes in May, Simon handed over the European affairs to Janet. At this time, he heard the words: "How is she doing recently?"

"Of course she's working for you. She will bring some real estate information this time, as well as some other things. You don't have to worry about it anyway," Janet said casually, and finally looked up at Simon and said: "Do you want to invite her over for dinner tonight?"

"Not tonight, let's talk about it when you have time," Simon didn't notice Janet's small eyes, picked up the suit from the hanger next to him, put it on, shook his head and said, "I have an appointment with Peter at night, Peter Butler, are you still remember?"

Janet nodded and said, "That reporter from the Los Angeles Times, he wrote an exclusive interview for you last year."

Although I don't really like to contact the media, but in the current situation, Pat Kingsley's advice to Simon, it is best to be able to accept some interviews, so as to avoid the outside world not getting Simon's personal consultation at all, so I start to speculate and even make up. Confused, Simon agreed.

Sending the man away, Janet came to a living room, took out a folder from under the coffee table and opened it, leaned on the sofa and called Simon's personal lawyer, George Norman, and chatted for a full hour. It was nearly nine o'clock when she hung up the line.

Ken Dixon has picked up Simon's housekeeper in Europe, Sophia Fisher, from Los Angeles International Airport.

In the courtyard, Sophia Fisher got off Janet's burgundy Land Rover, and the woman immediately greeted her. The housekeeper wore a black women's professional suit today. The well-cut suit and tube skirt made the woman's mature temperament a bit more intellectual.

After the two women hugged and greeted each other, they walked into the villa together, and Janet asked, "How are the two little guys doing?"

Sophia Fisher nodded gratefully and said, "Very well, I'll send them to my parents for now."

"If that guy dares to pester you again, let me know immediately," Janet said with a vicious expression, "I just want a few wineries."

Sophia Fisher walked into the villa with Janet with a smile, sat down on the sofa in the living room, put the briefcase she was carrying with her on her knees and opened it, looking at Janet who was walking towards the small bar in the corner of the living room and said, "If you really If you're interested, I can help you find one, I still know a little bit about it."

Janet brought two cups of coffee over and said, "Yes, but I want the best, um, which house information did you bring this time, let me see?"

"I went to Paris, London, Venice, Barcelona, ​​and Amsterdam during this period of time, and picked out a total of 16 properties," Sofia Fessi said, taking out several stacks of documents from the briefcase and neatly arranged them On the coffee table, he said again: "By the way, congratulations to Simon. His ranking on the Forbes list is really surprising."

Janet picked up a piece of real estate information and leaned comfortably on the sofa, and said with a smile, "I also feel very happy, but there is a lot of trouble. We were originally going to fly to Australia, and now we have to delay the trip."

Sophia Fisher nodded understandingly and said, "Yeah, Simon is too young after all."

"By the way, how is Natasha doing? Last time I called her she said she was going to Italy?"

Sofia Fisher nodded. "She's currently filming Jez Skolimovsky's new film, Spring in Rapids."

Janet tilted her head and said, "I remembered, some time ago in the media it was said

It happened, and the Catwoman Simon picked, um, Valerie Golino, who was supposed to be in this movie. "

Sofia Fisher laughed: "Yeah, Skolimovsky had been preparing the film for two years, and suddenly the heroine was snatched away, so he had to delay for a few months to re-cast."

"I don't know this man very well, but of course he can't be compared with my man." Janet said as a matter of course, suddenly said: "This house is not bad, um, Kensington Garden Street, and Kensington Palace next to each other?"

Sophia Fisher came over and said, "Yeah, it happens to be the neighbors of Prince Charles and Princess Diana."

Janet pouted and said disdainfully, "That pair of messed up guys."

Sophia Fisher reluctantly agreed and smiled. Many people always wanted to be neighbors with the royal family. Janet's completely dismissive reaction was completely beyond her expectations.

Janet turned a few more pages, turned her head sideways, and said, "This house is really nice, but it would be great if those two guys could be kicked out of Kensington Palace. I really don't want to be neighbors with them."

Sophia Fisher's smile froze.

The idea of ​​kicking the heir of the British royal family out of Kensington Palace is probably only a woman around her.

Janet didn't realize how unrealistic her idea was, and looked at Sophia: "Hey, how do you think we can drive the two of them out of Kensington Palace?"

"This," Sophia Fisher could only shake her head and said, "Jenny, it's not very practical."

Janet noticed Sophia's expression, shrugged her small shoulders, and said, "It's nothing unrealistic, maybe one day I will even buy Kensington Palace, but Simon doesn't seem to like this style of house very much. , may have to be demolished and rebuilt.”

Sophia Fisher is not a woman with little knowledge. Hearing Janet's words, she couldn't help but start thinking.

It is indeed not impossible to achieve Janet's 'vision', but the premise is that either the royal family is on the verge of bankruptcy, or the royal family is probably going to be cancelled.
