"Simon, Daenerys is currently working on "Desperate Housewives", do you think I can try the role of Gabriel?"

ck's after-show party.

It was Brooke Shields who spoke.

The controversial commercial that Brooke Shields shot for ck jeans can be said to be well known. The actress has always maintained a good relationship with ck, and came here to join us tonight.

After just completing the acquisition of New World Entertainment a few years ago, Simon personally took away the heroine of the comic adaptation movie "Angel God" that originally belonged to Brooke Shields. The actress who won the worst actress award for sour plum doesn't catch a cold at all.

At this time, Brooke Xiaosi mentioned the "Desperate Housewives" that was being prepared, and threw a charming look without a trace, Simon was unmoved, shook his head and smiled: "It's a pity, Brooke, Gabi's role is A Latino."

Brooke Shields did not give up: "I can speak Spanish, and it seems to be no problem to play a Latino. Besides, Simon, as long as you want, isn't it a very simple thing to modify the script?"

"But," Simon shrugged, directly dismissing Brooke Xiaosi's thoughts, and said, "This role has been determined."

"Okay," Brooke Shields flashed a bit of disappointment, glanced at Janet who was chatting with Cindy Crawford not far away, and quickly stuffed a card in Simon's suit pocket. Said: "However, Simon, if there is a suitable role, you can call me at any time."

Simon glanced at the corner of the card exposed in his breast pocket, with a bit of ridicule in his tone: "What if there is no chance, Brooke, can I call you?"

Brooke Xiaosi raised her eyebrows slightly, and nodded quickly: "Of course, I'm already looking forward to it now."

While chatting, Calvin Klein, the founder of ck, came over and chatted casually, and Brooke Shields took the initiative to walk away.

When Brooke Shields left, Calvin Klein asked casually, "Simon, what do you think of ck's show just now?"

Simon nodded and said, "It's a pretty good design style."

"Then," Calvin Klein hesitated for a moment, but straight to the point, "ck happened to have some financial troubles recently. I was thinking, would you be interested in investing in my company?"

During the show, Janet revealed that Sophia has been eyeing ck and may start contact in the near future.

Simon did not expect that Calvin Klein directly talked about this matter with himself.

Shaking his head, Simon said, "Karl, the problem is, I don't know anything about ck."

"If you're interested, Simon, I can send you some information tomorrow. The problem ck faces is not that big. Outside of the main product line, the sales of our recently launched men's underwear and fragrance products are very good, but it's just a matter of money. It's a little tight. If you're willing to invest in ck, I'm sure there will be very good returns in the future."

Janet just said on the show that ck is on the verge of bankruptcy.

Now, Calvin Klein also said that the problem the company faces is not a big problem. Of course Simon doesn't believe it, but he also understands why Klein said that. If it were him, it would definitely be the same. Flicker on the boat and talk about it.

"The information is no longer needed, Carl," Simon thought for a while and said, "I will take the time to find out in private. If ck is really worth investing in, I will let someone contact you."

Calvin Klein is a little disappointed, he has recently been looking for financial support for ck to get through the current difficulties.

Hand over a piece of information to Westeros. If the other party is interested in ck, then it is naturally the best. Even if he is not interested, he can tug at the tiger skin who is in contact with Westeros and fool other investors.

It seems that this little trick has been peeped out.

Of course, there was no sign of strangeness in his expression. Calvin Klein continued to introduce the situation of ck before walking away.

After Simon and Klein finished chatting, they also walked towards Janet.

Janet's height is not short, but it is only relatively speaking, and she is suddenly a little "petite" when she is around a group of fairies who usually reach six feet in high heels. However, the temperament of a woman born into a wealthy family for a long time is not comparable to other girls. Coupled with the status at this time, standing in the crowd, it is easy to become the leader of a small circle.

Putting his arms around Janet's waist, Simon looked at the fairies around him and asked with a smile, "What are you talking about?"

Cindy Crawford looked at Simon and said, "Women get together, of course they are talking about men."

Simon regretted: "It seems that I have missed a lot of wonderful scenes, or you continue and pretend that I don't exist."

Linda Evangelinsta, who was standing beside Cindy Crawford, said boldly: "But, Simon, you are so dazzling, we can feel your presence with our eyes closed."

Simon looked at the legendary supermodel next to Cindy and smiled: "This compliment is too satisfying for a man's vanity, Linda, let's do it again."

I just saw it from a distance at the opening party of Milan Fashion Week last year, and I didn't catch up at that time. Linda Evangolinsta didn't expect Simon to call out her name directly, and the tone was still very familiar, so Accidentally said: "Simon, do you know me?"

Simon made a big bad look: "Oops

, exposed, it seems that when I go back, I will be questioned by Jenny. "

Janet gave Simon a cooperative look and made a 'you're waiting' expression.

Everyone laughed.

Of course understand this is just a joke.

If you want to question, the girls think that Janet Westeros may want to know what's the matter with the 'waist essence' and the 'leg essence', but Yasmin Gary and Naja Allman are standing by the side of.

However, after the contact just now, the girls also noticed that Janet didn't seem to care about her husband's various lace, and she didn't show some of the instinctive hostility common to rich wives towards them.

Maybe this is the opportunity.

Continuing to chat and laugh for a while, seeing that it was almost time, Simon left the ck party with Janet.

The next day is Sunday.

Although no work is scheduled, the schedule is full.

The couple went to East Hampton, Long Island, to visit Steve Ross again in the morning, returned in the afternoon, and in the evening it was another reception at the Rayboulds, which was attended by many high-level executives on the east coast of the Westeros system.

After the weekend, Simon returned to the West Coast, and Janet remained there.

Not only the acquisition of Victoria's Secret's parent company ltd, Janet also plans to conduct a financial and personnel review of the companies under the entire Westeros system.

During this period, in addition to Daenerys Entertainment, the Westeros System held or owned Verizon Telecom, America Online, Melisandre, Igret, Cersei Capital, Nokia, sun, Oracle, Cisco, Microsoft, Intel, and a series of public or private companies have released quarterly or annual financial reports one after another.

As the scale of the Westeros system becomes larger and larger, Simon neither has enough energy nor the corresponding professional ability to deal with these. In the past, Janet was in charge, and women also had extraordinary talents in these things.

During her pregnancy, Janet let go of many things and now picks them up again.

Just last week, for a variety of reasons, Janet fired over 30 people from Cersei Capital in a forceful manner. Next, some other companies in the Westeros system, as long as there are problems, it is absolutely inevitable that a lot of people will lose their jobs.

Because of this pile of work that has accumulated for almost a whole year, Janet will stay on the East Coast for the next few weeks, which will require Simon to fly over from the West Coast to spend the weekend with the woman.

Simon returned to Los Angeles, and after another round of audition selection, the four Housewives candidates for "Desperate Housewives" were basically finalized.

The Four Housewives, Susan Mayer played by Connie Selka, Bree van Dijkhan played by Sheila Ward, Lynette Scarver played by Patricia Wendy, Brielle Solis is played by Laura Harling.

The actors of several housewives, Simon may be familiar or unfamiliar, but they all fit the image of the four housewives in memory very well, and the acting qualifications are even richer than the original housewives.

Needless to say, Patricia Wendy, the three-time Emmy Award-winning actress, and Sela Ward, who made direct decisions from Simon, are also Connie Selka, a 37-year-old who looks better than the original Terry Hay. Chell is also a mature and sexy actress who debuted in the 1970s. Although she has never been famous, she has starred in more than 20 film and television dramas.

Gabby's Laura Harling, 26, was born in Mexico. After immigrating to the United States, she also won the title of Miss America in the 1985 Miss America pageant. Eva Long, who was unknown before her fame in time and space Goliath had to fit Gabi's character 100% perfectly.

Not only that, but Laura Harling also starred in David Lynch's 2001 "Mulholland Drive" alongside Naomi Watts.

The four housewives were confirmed, and the selection of supporting roles for the series started immediately.

In addition, the Wisteria Street set planned for Universal Studios will also start construction in the near future.

After successively transferring most of the office departments to Daenerys Studios in Malibu, Universal Studios vacated a lot of areas, and the operation team was looking to rely on these excess spaces to increase project attractions.

If Desperate Housewives is a hit, the Wisteria Street set just happens to be a new attraction at Universal Studios.

When all the preliminary preparations are completed, "Desperate Housewives" will start in July and officially log on to the usa TV network in September.

Since March 13th was Janet's birthday, and the week only worked until Thursday, Simon flew to New York again.

New York Fashion Week is still going on, because of some brand activities of Gucci and Van Cleef \u0026 Arpels, Sophia will also fly over this weekend, and will also try to contact the ck company.

Having attended ck's catwalk and party last week, Simon did learn a bit about the company's business.

Unlike Calvin Klein's understatement with Simon at the party, ck's problems are tricky.

In addition to the cash flow problem caused by the economic downturn, in the 1980s, due to the continuous improvement of ck's reputation, Calvin Klein, who was eager to increase the company's scale and pursue more profits, also licensed the ck brand extensively without restraint.

Simply put, it is to allow other manufacturers to OEM the ck trademark.

OEM operations can indeed increase a company's revenue in the short term, but as long as business operators with a little long-term vision understand that this is not a long-term solution.

Now, Calvin Klein has also reacted. In order to consider the expansion of the headquarters and the brand reputation, Klein has been trying to withdraw the OEM license in the past two years, which has caused a series of disputes and lawsuits.

Of course, combined with the information in memory, Simon could see that these problems were indeed temporary.

As long as the current series of difficulties are overcome, ck will have a very good development prospect. In Simon's memory, ck has always been a first-line luxury brand until many years later, which is enough to prove this.

However, no one can see the future like Simon. Most of the capital that has the ability to help ck through the difficulties sees only a mess of this company, which may be heading for a meeting at any time. Moreover, ck is deeply affected by the economic downturn in the United States, and many companies in the United States are actually the same, so they will be very cautious when investing.

All in all, this is a good chance to catch a leak.

Sofia Fauci had first contact with Calvin Klein on Saturday, March 14.

Melisandre didn't plan to eat ck completely, and also didn't plan to replace Calvin Klein, the head of ck.

After more than 20 years of establishment, despite the current problems, Calvin Klein's ability to achieve the current scale from scratch is beyond doubt.

However, Melisandre's request is also to take at least half of ck's equity and achieve absolute control over the company.

Calvin Klein took the initiative to mention the capital injection with Simon at the party last week, and he did not respond for the following week. He originally thought that the super-rich was not interested in ck. There is a desire to sell.

Calvin Klein himself doesn't hold much shares in ck anymore, but Melisandre directly asked for the absolute control of ck, which is probably something that any company founder doesn't want to see.

In recent years, Gucci has risen rapidly, and then Van Cleef \u0026 Arpels, which has completed the acquisition, has also developed rapidly. Melisandre has become a banner in the luxury industry, not to mention that Melisandre is also backed by the Westeros system. giant.

Therefore, the company that Melisandre wants to acquire will definitely be very interested in other capital.

However, Sofia did not give Calvin Klein a chance to sell.

After the contact between the two parties, Sophia only gave Calvin Klein one day to consider, either agreeing to the acquisition invitation of Melisandre's absolute holding, or the business is simply abandoned.

This is actually done by Simon, following Warren Buffett.

Because of Berkshire Hathaway's reputation in the investment industry, companies that Buffett is interested in are often up for grabs after being offered an offer. As a result, Warren Buffett often gives his target little time to think about his business in the course of his business negotiations, avoiding the other party's bid for Berkshire's name.

Daenerys Entertainment used this trick early on when it acquired the rights to the script.

Simon has created a huge business empire in just six years, and the current Westeros system is far more famous than Berkshire Hathaway.

Therefore, if Westeros and even its subsidiaries want to acquire a company, they will often attract the attention of other capital, which has to adopt an "ultimatum" approach similar to Buffett.
