America is in control

Chapter 286 Buying a house in Beverly Hills and planning distribution channels
An action comedy, the cost is controllable and the filming is not difficult.

There are three heroines again, their roles are not much different, each has its own characteristics, and the movie performed well at the box office.

Apart from the fact that the storyline is too simple, the fight scenes are a little weak, and the villain boss is a little brainless, this movie is still remarkable.

First of all, the highlights are outstanding. The three heroines have exquisite looks and hot figures. They pose in various ways to play with ambiguity, and occasionally add funny little scenes, which makes the whole movie watching process particularly relaxed.

Secondly, as a standard action movie, there are all kinds of hot scenes, such as going to the sky and going to the sea, chasing cars and jumping off bridges and buildings.

Plus some fancy gimmicks, such as high-tech breakthroughs, Chinese Kung Fu, Sakura Kendo, etc.

"Charlie's Angels" is a wonderful popcorn movie and can be called a model of Hollywood commercial films.

"Let's get in touch with people from Sony Columbia and see if we can buy out the rights to adapt this TV series."

"Don't relax on the Writers Guild of America side. If you find a suitable script, send it to me as soon as possible."

"Also, pay attention to the field of horror films. I plan to launch two projects this year."

After thinking for a moment, General Liu gave an order to Jonathan.

"Boss, if you want to buy the copyright from Sony Columbia, this may be a bit difficult."

Jonathan looked embarrassed. All the Hollywood Seven are people who eat people without spitting out their bones. They especially value the copyright they hold in their hands.

It’s not that easy for the new Caesars Entertainment Company to seize food from the tiger’s mouth!
"Try it first! If the other party's asking price is too high, or they don't plan to sell it at all, then I will have other ways!"

Liu Jiang certainly knows the seven virtues of Hollywood, but he still has to give it a try.

"Okay, Boss, I will try my best!"

Jonathan was visibly relieved and nodded in agreement.

The three of them talked about the recent situation of the new Caesars Entertainment Company. After some exchanges, Jonathan and Ronald said goodbye.

Liu Jiang stood up, walked the two of them to the door of the Irvine Villa, and prepared to return to the study to continue dealing with the affairs that had accumulated during this period.

Unexpectedly, Connery appeared quietly behind him.

"John, were you talking about the new movie just now?"

General Liu was almost shocked. What's wrong with this little girl? She has to learn to scare people!

He turned around, looked at Connery who was eager to try, and said with a smile.

"Honey, I already have a sketch of the script for the new movie, but it will take a while, so don't worry."

Before Liu Jiang finished speaking, Connery rushed over to him. She hooked her arms around his neck and offered her pink lips.

Subconsciously hugging the big cream cake's unbearable water snake waist, Liu Jiang was slightly stunned, and then he was addicted to the beautiful feeling brought about by the confrontation of lips and teeth.

After a long time, Connelly felt a little out of breath, so he gently pushed the opponent's broad chest with his soft jade hands, trying to gain some space.

"Little lion! I love you so much! Wait...! Do you still have time today? I've already spotted it in Beverly Hills."

"Tomorrow! Let's go tomorrow! I have more important things to do now."

"Ah! Don't...! Don't do bad things! Isn't it okay that I was wrong?"

"Hmph! Don't you think it's too late to say this now? Big cream cake!"

Beverly Hills is located at the foot of the Beverly Hills on the west coast of the United States with a pleasant climate. It has the title of "the most exclusive residential area in the world" and is known as the representative and symbol of wealth and fame.

There is the world's most upscale commercial street here, and many celebrities' mansions are gathered here.

As the holy land of world cinema, Beverly Hills holds a variety of lively awards events every year, attracting countless tourists from all over the world.

"Mr. John, this French-style mansion is located on the hillside of Beverly Hills, overlooking the famous Sunset Strip."

"The mansion has a construction area of ​​nearly 3 square feet (approximately 2787 square meters) and an area of ​​more than 2 acres (approximately 8093 square meters)."

"There are 8 bedrooms and 11 bathrooms. In addition to the main building, there are two additional guest rooms, a gym and a swimming room in the courtyard."

"Outdoor amenities include an open-air swimming pool, tennis courts, motor court with fountain, and party terrace."

A Chinese agent in a suit and leather tie guided General Liu and Connery while introducing the French-style mansion in front of them in detail.

"Little lion, look here! We can entertain our Hollywood friends here in the future."

Connelly stood on the edge of the clear open-air swimming pool, making random gestures with his hands, sketching out a dreamy scene for General Liu.

Her face was filled with a happy and bright smile, the corners of her eyes and brows were filled with all kinds of amorous feelings, and her captivating gaze seemed to stir up a pool of spring water.

Liu Jiang's heart trembled. Connery's amazing charm at this time made him move his index finger.

Trying his best to calm down, he nodded towards the big cream cake, then turned to look at the Chinese agency.

“How much does this French mansion cost?”

"$1200 million!"

The Chinese agent's face was filled with joy, his lips were tighter than AK's, and he quickly reported a number.

good! The price did not exceed my psychological expectations.

However, this price is obviously flawed, so let’s leave it to professionals to negotiate the price!
General Liu didn't ask any more questions, but left all the follow-up matters to Li Chengxiong.

He also looked at many villas in Beverly Hills, and only this French-style mansion suited him best.

Coupled with the fact that Connery also liked this model, Liu Jiang no longer hesitated and simply settled on it.

After leaving Beverly Hills, the two returned to the Irvine Villa. Connery ignored that his body had not yet recovered and rewarded Liu Jiang.

"I'll leave the rest of the procedures to you. Find a reliable decoration company to renovate the villa. By the way, help me install some boxing training equipment in the gym."

Liu will swish down a number on the check, 1080 million U.S. dollars, and at the same time he explained to Li Chengxiong beside him.

"Don't worry, I will take care of it!"

Li Chengxiong nodded and agreed. After taking the check from the other party, he said goodbye.

"Ray, what's going on at the Los Angeles Inquirer? Has the newspaper owner relented?"

After seeing off Li Chengxiong, Liu Jiang waved to Lei in the living room and asked.

"Boss, that gossip tabloid is currently in a state of chaos, and many employees have resigned."

"Coupled with the fact that the relevant departments in Los Angeles come to the door from time to time to cause trouble, I don't think the newspaper owner can survive for a few days!"

"Recently, he has been asking around, trying to find out who is teasing him."

Lei walked quickly to General Liu and said softly.

"Continue to pay attention. If the other party plans to sell the Los Angeles Inquirer, remember to tell me as soon as possible!"

With a hint of pride on his face, Liu Jiang smiled and gave the other party a warning.

"Okay, Boss!"

Lei nodded and agreed.

In the next few days, Liu will travel step by step to the University of Southern California, New Caesars Boxing Club, New Caesars Entertainment Company and Irvine Villas. The weight-lifting and training plan formulated by coach Rooney for him has long been released, and Liu's diet has changed again.

It’s still the same old method, trying to maintain the best condition of the body while steadily gaining weight.

General Liu is not in a hurry. Anyway, the new contract has not been negotiated yet and the next game is very early.

Rooney's careful plan to gain weight was exactly what he wanted.

Liu Jiang has adapted to this slow pace and has begun to gain weight steadily.

The weight limit for professional boxing's light heavyweight division is 175 pounds (79.38 kilograms).

Rooney advised Liu to maintain his weight at around 180 pounds (81.6 kg).

In this way, losing weight before competition will not be too strenuous and will have minimal impact on the body.

Liu Jiang is currently 189cm tall and has a strong frame. This weight is just right.

On this day, Jonathan suddenly called and there was news from Landman Publishing Company.

After training, Liu will rush to the new Caesars Entertainment Company.

"How's the situation going? How did the boss of Randleman Publishing react?"

After inviting Jonathan and Ronald to the office, General Liu asked as soon as they sat down.

"Ronald and I contacted the company's boss and the boss's son respectively. The boss was a little hesitant, but his son was quite positive. In addition, the company's management also had some concerns."

Jonathan introduced the current situation.

"Although Landman Publishing Company is not large in scale, it has a stable income of several million US dollars every year. It is normal for the boss to hesitate."

"Besides, a lot of people in the company are living on these millions of dollars, and their ideas must be considered by the boss."

"Our new Caesars Entertainment company has just been established and has only produced one movie. It is normal for the company's management to be worried about the future of the company."

Ronald added a few words on the side.

Liu Jiang held his chin with one hand, and after thinking for a while, he made a decision.

"Continue to keep in contact with the boss of Landman Publishing Company. I will find a solution for his son."

"In addition, talk privately with the company's management to demonstrate the strength of the new Caesars Entertainment Company and dispel their doubts."

"No matter what, my boss is also a billionaire! No matter how bad I am, I won't be short of their salary!"

Hearing General Liu say this, Jonathan and Ronald almost laughed out loud.

"By the way, what do Sony Columbia say? Are they willing to sell the rights to adapt the TV series "Charlie's Angels"?"

After arranging the Landman Distribution Company, Liu Jiang asked about the adaptation rights.

"Boss, the people at Sony Columbia are quite arrogant. I feel like they don't want to sell the adaptation rights at all. They didn't even offer a price!"

The smile on Jonathan's face disappeared instantly, and he said with a bitter look on his face, somewhat angrily.

"I know! Give up all contact with Sony Columbia. You can help me find a few top screenwriters in the industry, unsigned ones. I will figure out the script."

Liu Jiang thought for a while and said to Jonathan, since I can't get the adaptation rights, I can always create an original one!
Anyway, these Hollywood scripts are just copied over and over, and there aren't many that are new at all.

I roughly remember the story line of "Charlie's Angels". As long as I pay attention to avoid some particularly obvious points and make random changes, isn't it an original script?
"Okay, Boss! Do we need to continue with the Writers Guild of America and horror movies?"

Jonathan breathed a sigh of relief and asked again.

"Of course! You have to pay attention to these two things, and you can't relax!"

"I know! Boss!"

After this brief meeting, Liu Jiang was the only one left in the office.

He picked up a pen and started spinning it subconsciously. He was still thinking about Randleman Publishing Company and the new movie script.

Currently, there is still a huge sum of US$5500 million lying in the account of the new Caesars Entertainment Company.

This money is more than enough to acquire a small distribution company, and it should be enough to even launch two new projects.

In case you don't have enough funds, your personal account can provide some support.

The crux of the matter was how to get the owner of Landman Publishing to be willing to sell his company.

The North American distribution channel is too important to the new Caesars Entertainment Company, and the sooner it is resolved, the better.

The boss of Landman Publishing Company is very shrewd, but he also has an obvious weakness, and that is his son who studies finance.

The stock market in the United States has been extremely hot in the past few years. The boss had the idea of ​​​​getting away from reality, and maybe it was his son who was instigating it behind the scenes.

Maybe it can be like this
Liu Jiang had a flash of inspiration and suddenly came up with a strange idea.

After completing the plan in his mind, he took out his cell phone, found Beth Dutton's number, and called her.

"Little Mustang! Did you miss me? Are you looking forward to hearing my voice?"

The call was quickly answered, and Liu Jiang began to talk.

"Hmph! No coward! Apart from a good body and a clever tongue, you are nothing else!"

Beth never loses, and she still talks harshly. It seems that she has forgotten the embarrassment she felt last time.

"Who are you talking about, the coward? I don't know who was beaten to death last time but didn't want to come out, so I waited all night in vain!"

Liu Jiang gritted his back molars and said bitterly.

"Haha! It's like last time, don't talk nonsense here! In fact, I'm worried about falling into your gentle trap and then not being able to get out of bed for several days!"

Beth smiled seductively, and after pretending to be reserved, the conversation suddenly changed and her words became sharper.

"Don't worry! I'm not a bad person, I'm sensible! The most I can do is make you moan until your throat becomes hoarse."

"Are you so considerate? It seems that I have to thank you properly! Come on! The little wild horse has branched out now."

"Wait! Don't worry! I'm calling this time because I have something serious to ask you for help."

"John, do you have any bullets in your pocket?"

"Hiss! It seems that the lesson I gave you last time was not enough! Now listen to my command."

"John, tell me! What do you want from me?"

After a heated exchange of words, Beth's rapid breathing gradually slowed down, and a lazy cat-like meow came from the phone receiver.

"Ahem! That's right. There is a small film distribution company called Landman in Burbank. The owner of this company has a lot of assets. He has a son who studied finance and just graduated from college."

Liu Jiang coughed twice, his attitude became more serious, and he introduced the situation to the other party.

"That's it? I thought... Don't worry! I will help you get it done!"
