Made in Hollywood

The real estate industry is undoubtedly the core industry of the entire Trump Organization. It will not take too long, this industry will encounter a huge crisis, Donald Trump's life will not be easy, and the real estate industry in the United States will also enter a relative downturn from now on. development status.

This is not only the bad result of capital seeking profit, but also the federal government has put too much hope of economic development on this industry. Countless cases in North America, Japan and Europe in the past have proved what will happen if the real estate industry is used as a pillar industry. 's consequences.

Think of Tokyo in the past, the land price of a city can almost buy land in the United States...

From the moment when the federal government promoted the development of the real estate industry and drained the oil and water of the middle class, the subprime mortgage crisis was inevitable.

Duke is not the kind of magnanimous person, and of course he wants to see Donald Trump unlucky and push him in the back if necessary.

The conflict of interest between the two parties in instant sharing cannot be reconciled at all.

Where are we going next?

Sitting in a black Bentley sedan, Erin Lauder looked at her watch, Let's go to dinner together?

Okay. Duke nodded.

Erin Lauder whispered to the driver, dialed another number to reserve a seat, and the car slowly drove towards Fifth Avenue.

You and Ivanka haven't talked in detail anymore? she asked suddenly with concern.

Duke looked away from the window and slowly shook his head, There's no need to talk.

David, his investment agent, has reached a preliminary agreement with Larry Page and Sergey Brin, and it won't be long before Google will get his and several other shareholders in exchange for shares. Shares, complete the holding of instant sharing, so as to realize the huge puzzle of the Internet industry.

Although never brought any substantial profit. However, instant sharing is already the best social networking site in the United States, and the online video business is doing well. Google is looking at these two aspects.

Therefore, Google is not interested in YOUTUBE whose business is seriously suppressed by instant sharing, but chose to package and buy instant sharing.

As for the relationship between him and Ivanka, it stems from the conflict between the two interest groups. It is also doomed that it is impossible for two people to become ordinary friends after breaking up.

The conflict between Duke and Donald Trump is not just his own problem. Anyone who reaches Duke's current position will inevitably gather a large number of people around him. He has actually become a representative of an interest group.

In fact, Irene Lauder is also the same. Anyone who can become a super-rich person has a team around them whose interests are closely related.

The two walked into a three-Michelin-starred restaurant on Fifth Avenue. The Lauder family's name is still quite useful. The location of this restaurant often needs to be reserved several days in advance. Irene Lauder just made a phone call and easily found a location near the glass window.

My cousin is a major shareholder in this restaurant.

After sitting down, Erin Lauder said to Duke. Otherwise, even my phone won't work.

Although this is not a human society, relationships such as relationships will also play a role. This is an important part of human society.

Looks like I'm going to take a stake in a few famous restaurants, Duke said jokingly. I'll have dinner with friends in the future. You don't even need to book a seat, that's not a good thing.

How many friends do you have? Erin Lauder knew that Duke's friends could actually be counted on two hands, and couldn't help teasing, Or do you want to return to the way of life in the past. Are you going to invite someone beautiful Hollywood actress?

Duke shook his head. I'm tired of that life.

He took the initiative to change the subject, It is said that your makeup brand's performance has nearly doubled last year?

yes.

At this time, the food they ordered was brought by the waiter, and after the food was served, Erin Lauder said, I have been actively developing business on the other side of the Pacific Ocean for the past few years, and the market volume and growth on the other side are indeed true. It's amazing how the company's business can grow so rapidly, and the sales there play a huge role.

Aren't you guys also talking about the Warner Fox Big World project? she asked.

It's basically done. Duke picked up the knife and fork, enjoyed his steak, and chatted while eating, It is estimated that a formal contract will be signed in the second half of the year.

Compared to your investment, Irene said before eating a piece of mushrooms, my cosmetics are just a small business.

Honey, Duke reminded her, I think you forgot that the investor is Time Warner Bros.

Aren't you the major shareholder and executive director of Time Warner? Erin Lauder put down her fork, raised her glass, and gestured to Duke, The entire investment plan is also based on your proposal.

That's because the investment is in my interest as well as the needs of Warner and News Corp. Duke took a sip from his glass. You know, that market is so appealing.

How many people are not jealous of the immature market, how many world-class companies have focused their development there, and how many groups that are on the verge of bankruptcy see it as a life-saving straw?

Not to mention other things, the fact that Iron Man can land on the market on the other side of the Pacific as soon as possible shows its powerful power.

In just three days over the weekend, this film took away 50 million RMB from the other side. It is the well-deserved ruler in the May schedule. As of now, Iron Man has been released there for nearly ten days, and the box office has broken through. 100 million RMB, and the final box office figure is likely to reach as much as 200 million RMB.

Although the conversion into US dollars is at best similar to the film's highest single-day box office in North America, but looking at the performance of imported films over the past year, it is not difficult to see the rapid growth of the market across the Pacific, and the growth rate has even exceeded 30%.

In two to three years at most, this film market will inevitably explode with achievements that will attract the attention of the whole world.

Duke and Erin Lauder ate and chatted. The topic changed from business to gossip, and from gossip to personal life.

When will Scarlett become a superstar? Irene asked with concern.

It will take a while. Duke couldn't help but feel a little strange, Why do you care about Scarlett's career?

Erin shrugged, My brand has signed a long-term endorsement contract with Scarlett. The more famous she is, the better it will be for me.

Soon. Duke replied.

There is no doubt that Scarlett Johansson had a certain reputation before, but the role that really brought her to the world was actually the role of Agent Natasha Normanoff.

Different from the previous Black Widow, in the new Marvel series, Natasha Normanoff's weight is even heavier, and it is not an exaggeration to say that she is a key character.

For example, the script of Captain America ​​has been finalized. In this film, the main story is from Natasha Normanoff's memories, and Scarlett will also play the role of Black Widow as a girl, with Captain America Steve? Rogers fought alongside Bucky Barnes, the Winter Soldier.

After dinner, the two did not stay on Fifth Avenue and returned directly to the Upper East Side. Duke returned home before ten o'clock.

When he got home, he knocked on the door of the study, pushed it open, and walked in.

Mom, are you still busy? Duke saw his mother sitting behind the desk reading materials.

Mrs. Leah raised her head and looked at him, The information just sent by the European branch will be read soon.

Walking to the desk, Duke picked up his mother's coffee cup, poured the rest of the cold coffee into the trash can, and replaced it with a glass of water. Knowing that he couldn't persuade her, he simply sat on the other side of the desk with him.

In fact, in the past few years, Mrs. Liya has gradually handed over most of the work in her hands to professional managers, but the development of the company to the current scale has gathered her countless efforts, and it is impossible to completely let go.

What's more, professional managers like Michael Eisner are definitely not an exception in North America, and it is not a wise choice to fully delegate power.

Soon, Mrs. Lia put down the documents, took a sip from the water glass, and then stood up, rubbing her forehead lightly with one hand.

No matter how healthy she is, and no matter how well-maintained she is, she is now nearly sixty years old, and no one can fight against the natural laws of time. The so-called legend of immortality is just a legend.

Duke walked over and held his mother's arm, Mom, shouldn't you consider retiring?

Mrs. Leah opened Duke's hand, Am I so old?

Withdrew his hand, Duke smiled helplessly, Of course not.

Talking about age and the like with any woman is undoubtedly a very wrong choice.

What about Scarlett?

Taking the lead out of the study, Mrs. Leah turned her head and asked, Why didn't she go back to New York with you?

She's going to Australia with Robert Downey Jr. for an announcement.

Seeing his mother sitting on the sofa, Duke hurried over and tucked the cushions behind her back, I will go to East Asia next, and it is estimated that I won't be able to return to North America until next month at the earliest.

Mrs. Leah suddenly sighed, I originally wanted to train Scarlett to take over Santa Feia, but she, like you, is more interested in movies than in business.

Let's leave it to a professional manager. Duke sat next to his mother, We can do the necessary supervision.

I heard that Victoria's Secret is going to raise and expand its shares again. Mrs. Leah changed the subject, If you still have funds in hand, I suggest you continue to invest, and women's products will never be out of date.

I see. Duke nodded lightly.

In recent years, he has been busy with work. Except for the occasional use of Victoria's Secret Angels as the vase in the film, Duke rarely intervenes in the management of Victoria's Secret, and can be his own shareholder with peace of mind.

However, Victoria's Secret business has grown rapidly, and the investment that year brought not only capital preservation, but also large annual dividends.

After a week in New York, Duke returned to Los Angeles, and Iron Man had begun to cool down in North America. (To be continued ~^~)
