Hollywood Tycoon [US Entertainment + Business War]

Chapter 350 It's Only At That Time

As the birthplace of the British Industrial Revolution, Lancashire is already a dilapidated primary industrial city.Because it is surrounded by Greater Manchester and Merseyside, Lancashire is already very low in the ranking of modern British cities, and it is not a good livable city.But there are still many residences of rich people from the UK and even the world here, because the best basic education in the UK is concentrated here.Although when it comes to basic education in the UK, many people think of Eton College first, but Eton College is a secondary school and a preparatory school after all. Where should I study for primary school is a problem?But Lancashire has the best private and public primary schools in the UK, and even Eton College will take the initiative to come here to select students.Because of this, Jed and John bought a suburban house here.

It is interesting to say that in many countries, countryman more or less contains a derogatory meaning; but only in the UK, countryman is a modest term for British nobles.Because many British aristocrats do not like to live in highly industrialized metropolises, they prefer to buy a villa or manor in the suburbs.Even the British royal family doesn't particularly like to stay in London, and will go to Buckinghamshire for vacation every now and then.Although Buckinghamshire is close to metropolitan areas such as Oxford, Burke, and Greater London, under the insistence of the royal family, Buckinghamshire is still full of game.The most famous Eton College in the UK is located here, including the nearby Oxfordshire, which actually looks a lot like a small county-level city in some countries.

However, Lancashire is not completely industrialized. As a result, the countryside is not rural, and the city is not urban. Therefore, except for the nearby suburbs where people buy land, the urban areas are basically poor people, which also makes it the most unpopular place in the UK. One of the few places that are safe.But fortunately, the manor Jed bought is located in the so-called "school district housing area", so the security is good. It seems that the British government does not want to waste the unique feature of Lancashire.Since retiring, Jed's family has lived in semi-reclusion here, and the only rare opportunity to show up is to watch Liverpool's game in Merseyside.

After Jed came to the UK, he made two investments. One investment was a stake in Rupert Murdoch’s Sky Satellite Television Company, because the British TV network really made Jed unbearable. Apart from BBC, SKY and ITV, there is no fourth channel. , so Jed simply invested in a satellite TV company to ensure that he could watch enough TV for entertainment; another investment was a stake in the century-old Liverpool team.Jed's shareholding was criticized by many people at the time, because Lancashire is also close to Greater Manchester, whether it is a better choice to invest in Manchester United or Manchester City, but Jed prefers Liverpool.After buying the Liverpool team, Jed did not hesitate to spend money to renovate the team.The first is to poach the coach with the most personality-Mourinho, and then let him go to form the team.In the first year when Jed bought the team, the Liverpool team, which had fallen out of the Premier League BIG4, turned around and won the runner-up and got the chance to return to the European arena.Because of this, Jade was accepted by the KOPs in his second year.That's why Jed and John will appear in the first game, the Christmas game and the last game every year. Of course, Jed will also show up to cheer on the team's key schedule.

The Sherman Film and Television Entertainment Group without Jed’s command fell into a low ebb in the second year. First of all, in the field of animated films, Disney finally took the risk to launch the big killer "Frozen", which not only squeezed into the annual total The top three at the box office also broke the box office history of animated films in one fell swoop.In addition to Disney's push, Warner Bros.' Man of Steel and Gravity; Paramount's Star Trek Into Darkness and World War Z; Universal's Despicable I 2 and The Fast and the Furious 6 both did well at the box office, but Sherman Entertainment Group's "The Hunger Games: Catching Fire" and "Iron Man 2" ended up taking the top two spots at the box office. But apart from these two films, "Thor 3: The Dark World", which was highly anticipated by investors, failed to enter the top ten box office of the year.Countless analysts believed that the Sherman Film and Television Entertainment Group was about to collapse, but at this time, Robert Downey Jr. stood up and stated, "I have reached a new agreement with the Sherman Film and Television Group. The first and fifth episodes are already in production; and the new "Avengers" will have a fourth episode, and the new fourth episode will not only have new superheroes joining, but will also be co-produced with Warner.”

Soon Warner also confirmed Downey's statement. A spokesperson for Warner Bros. said, "The success of the 'Batman Prequel' series and the new 'Superman' series has allowed us to see the infinite charm of superhero movies, and with Shell Man Film Entertainment Group's co-production of the fourth episode of "Avengers" was originally agreed. In the fourth episode of "Avengers", Warner Bros. will participate in the film production as a co-producer. In this episode' In the "Avengers", you can not only see Superman, but also superheroes from DC comics such as Batman, Green Lantern, Green Arrow and The Flash. At the same time, we are also very happy to announce that the "Justice League" related The film production plan has also been put on the company's agenda."

The turmoil in 2013 came to an end with the speech of Robert Downey Jr. and the release of Warner Bros., but many analysts vowed that 2014 will be the year of Sherman Film and Television Entertainment Group and MGM Pictures Group. Crash days.In response to this statement, when Jed was interviewed by reporters at the Liverpool Christmas game, "Give me half a year, and they will swallow everything they said."

到了2014年,暑期档刚刚结束,媒体们的统计就让所有分析家闭上了嘴巴。半年票房总榜上,谢尔曼影视娱乐集团的《银河护卫队》(银河电影出品)和《美国队长2:寒冬战士》(银河电影出品)囊括了前两名,而No.3则是华纳兄弟的《乐高大电影》。第四、第五和No.6依然是谢尔曼影视娱乐的《变形金刚4:绝迹重生》(顶峰娱乐出品)、《沉睡魔咒》(狮门电影出品)和《X战警:逆转未来》(狮门电影出品)。最让分析家感到尴尬的是,No.7就是米高梅影业的《猩球崛起2:黎明之战》。No.8依然是谢尔曼影视娱乐的《超凡蜘蛛侠2》(银河电影出品);No.9则是华纳兄弟的《哥斯拉》;No.10才是索尼影视的《龙虎少年队2》。

Now the only one that can pose a threat to Sherman Film and Television Entertainment is the old local store-Warner Bros.Sony Pictures has long been excluded from the challenger team.But what many people know is that Sherman Entertainment and Time Warner have a gentleman's agreement.Sherman Films and Television Entertainment will fully help Warner Bros. "Justice League" plan, so Time Warner is almost an ally of Sherman Films and Television Entertainment.As for Sony Pictures Films, which called the wind and rain, it is already a thing of the past.According to the latest statistics from the "Hollywood Reporter", the entire American film industry has shown that Sherman Film and Television Entertainment is the only one, followed by Warner Bros., followed by MGM and Sony Pictures, and the fourth camp is Fox. , Paramount, Universal, and Disney.

The "Hollywood Report" even pointed out that unless there is an emergency, Sherman Film and Television Entertainment's monopoly of Hollywood can last at least another ten years.Although Sony Pictures has repeatedly accused Sherman Entertainment of having a monopoly agreement, according to the investigation of the U.S. Department of Commerce, the so-called Sherman Entertainment is only a theatrical distribution company. Gate Films and Summit Entertainment are independent entities, while Media Asia and Europa are not within the scope of the US Department of Commerce's investigation because they are registered in Hong Kong and Cannes.

"Hey, Matthew, what are you planning to write for your graduation thesis?" USC is still one of the most developed schools in the American film industry. A blonde beauty asked a teenager.

Although Americans think that girls with blonde hair and blue eyes should have no brains, Jessica is a talented student at the USC Film Academy.In the entire film school, the only person who caught her eye was this black-haired and gray-eyed Matthew.Matthew's identity has always been a mystery in USC. Some people say that he came from a wealthy family, but he often works in a nearby fast food restaurant;So this mysterious boy finally aroused Jessica's curiosity, because many of Matthew's speeches in class reminded Jessica of her idol, Jed Sherman.So Jessica was working on Jed for her senior thesis, and she wanted to know what the boy she was most interested in was going to study.

"Holy War." Matthew didn't look up at the girl, and then added, "Do you know this movie?"

"Why didn't I know?" As if insulted, the girl immediately retorted, "This movie is Mr. Sherman's real farewell work, although Mr. Jed Sherman's name is not signed on this movie. , but many analysts pointed out that the producer and screenwriter of this film should be Mr. Sherman! This film and "Schindler's List" are also called "the double wall of World War II reflection film", and this is also an Asian film. The first truly anti-war movie in China. Although this movie had a miserable box office in Japan, it won the annual box office championship in China, South Korea and Southeast Asia, and even shined in the Golden Globes and Oscars. The top ten in the IMDB list is the best position for the movie fans around the world, you actually say I don’t understand it?”

Matthew turned his head, smiled and said, "I didn't expect you to know this movie so well."

"Of course, Mr. Sherman is my idol." Seeing the young man smiling, Jessica also smiled.

"By the way, I'm going to visit someone who knows a lot about "Jihad". Are you going?"

"Of course." Jessica immediately positioned this visit as a date in her heart, and of course she had to grasp it.

Matthew took Jessica to a manor near Los Angeles. When Jessica saw the name of Rose Manor, she took a breath of air.She, who is familiar with Jed's story, doesn't know the name of Rose Manor. There are so many memorable things that happened here.

And when Matthew led Jessica to an old man who was watering roses, he smiled and said, "This is Mr. Jed Sherman, my father."
