Hollywood New Century

The 3.11 earthquake occurred in rb, with a magnitude of 9. Hollywood film companies and many stars have donated money and prayed for blessings.

Sony, as an rb company, of course donated the most, and at the same time rb's movie market began to slump. Both Disney and Universal have also held fundraisers in Hollywood and their respective movie-themed resorts in Tokyo and Osaka.

However, even the destruction of the world will not change Hollywood's drunken fans. On California's Pacific Coast Highway, Simon drives a Bentley Continental GT Roadster on this California Highway 1.

Sitting next to Ivanka, this beautiful Highway 1 runs from the north of San Francisco to the south of Los Angeles, with boundless Pacific Ocean views on one side and various mountain forests and stone walls on the other.

Simon was driving from Los Angeles to Santa Barbara, enjoying the California sun on this scenic highway.

"It's the best way to drive from San Francisco to Los Angeles!" Simon explained to Ivanka while bathing in the sun.

"You still have time to travel by car? From San Francisco to Los Angeles," Ivanka, wearing sunglasses, seemed a little surprised.

Simon shook his head and said with a smile: "No, basically, for the farther distances, I always travel by helicopter. I only choose to drive from Beverly Hills to Santa Monica or Malibu."

"By the way, when I come to Los Angeles this time, I will sell the shares of the cooperative private island? Nothing else?"

Ivanka previously cooperated with Simon on a private holiday island company, and now all the shares have been transferred to Simon.

"I started my own fashion brand company of the same name. Before, it was just jewelry. In recent years, it has involved series of shoes, ready-to-wear, bags, cosmetics, etc.," Ivanka said proudly.

Simon was disgusted for a while, but Ivanka's eyes under the sunglasses must be disgusting.

"That's not bad, it's also good to start a career that you like, plus the exposure is also good, you have a lot of resources in the rich second-generation circle," Simon encouraged casually.

Going to Santa Barbara today, Simon is going to attend Rupert Murdoch's birthday celebration, and Ivanka is also invited by Wendi Deng.

Simon has a sprawling hilltop estate in Santa Barbara, located in the area northwest of the city of Santa Barbara, off the coast. So Simon first brought Ivanka here directly.

"The scenery here is so beautiful," said Ivanka, who was here for the first time. The huge grassland, the surrounding forest trees, the artificial lake, and the small river.

Ivanka was hanging out admiring the views around the manor, while Simon was answering the phone. Asked about the current News Corporation in the UK monitoring door incident.

"It's all over the place, and you're still in the mood to hold a birthday party?" Simon muttered in his heart, and Rupert Murdoch's birthday was March 11. It's already the end of the month, and I don't know how many events have been held.

Simon and Ivanka went to Rupert Murdoch's villa in Santa Barbara after spending the night at the estate for a banquet.

"It seems to be specially held for the entertainment media circle," Simon, who was sitting in the car, found that many Hollywood stars were also there.

"Hollywood tycoons are different. This scene is probably a bit like the Oscars," Ivanka laughed as she got out of the car.

Afterwards, he walked into the villa venue with Simon's arm, and Rupert Murdoch's wife Wendi Deng personally received him.

"Welcome, Simon, Ivanka!" Wendi Deng welcomed them in enthusiastically.

Later, Wendi Deng took Ivanka to the other side, and Simon chatted with someone he knew.

Nicole Kidman hurried forward to say hello after seeing Simon, "Simon, good evening!"

Simon was stunned for a moment, isn't this guy in New York these days? Immediately thought of it is not all Australians.

"See, News Corporation still has a lot of energy in the eyes of Australians," Simon thought about it. There are indeed many Australian actors here.

"Oh, the largest media group, almost all Australian actors who come to Hollywood have worked with Twentieth Century Fox," Nicole Kidman laughed again,

"You and Ivanka seem to have gotten a little closer recently!"

"I met, and came together. She and Murdoch's wife seem to be familiar with each other," Simon said casually, and then asked,

"By the way, how was your trip to China last year?"

Nicole Kidman nodded and said: "It feels very good and very enthusiastic. I went to China as an Omega ambassador a few years ago, that time was Shanghai, this time is bj, China is developing very fast, five years The feeling of time has changed quite a bit!”

"It's no wonder that Disney and you Universal both want to open a movie theme park resort in China. However, I haven't been there for long, only one day."

Simon reminded: "Nowadays, overseas markets are becoming more and more important to Hollywood, and the Chinese market is the most important growth point. The North American entertainment market has already been saturated, and the future of multi-country co-productions will definitely usher in a big explosion, and the combination of capital and market will also getting closer."

"I think I seem to be very well-known in the Chinese market. It seems that there are still many blessings for the two Oscar winners!" Nicole Kidman laughed.

"Oh, yes, yes, Reese Witherspoon is also an Oscar winner, and Hilary Swank is also a two-time Oscar winner. How many people in China know them?" Simon said.

"They're Americans. I'm an Australian citizen and an American dual citizen. It's different!" Nicole Kidman explained, cultural differences.

"Forget it, they are mainly native to North America.

The market, internationalization is not very good, comedy, love movies are also difficult to go international, and your beauty is in line with the oriental aesthetic sense, and you were Tom Cruise's wife before, which is also a plus point," Simon said. After thinking about it, he suggested,

"This is an advantage. In the future, you will have more opportunities to participate in the cooperation between China and the United States. Of course, the premise is that the Australian government does not die!"

"This," Nicole Kidman opened her mouth in surprise, and said with a bitter smile: "Can it all be related to the Australian government?"

"Well, is there a film project that suits me now, and the pay is easy to say!" Nicole Kidman didn't worry so much, she finally won another Oscar, and now she is much more cautious in choosing films.

A few years ago, the box office poison hat was very uncomfortable!

"Mr. Pike, Mr. Murdoch is asking you to come over in the back garden," Simon was approached by a receptionist.

"Okay!" After Simon responded, he said to Nicole Kidman. "When you get to Los Angeles, come to me and I'll see what script you received and give me some advice!"

"Ok!"
