Chapter 303 European Goddess(1/3)
Paparazzi reporters and celebrities have always complemented each other..
In fact, they are all important components of an ecosystem called the entertainment industry.
Paparazzi need to take photos of celebrities to create news, gain ratings and increase sales.
Celebrities often need paparazzi to increase their exposure and attention.
Many times, the relationship between the two parties is actually quite good.
Certain celebrities who are outdated or not famous enough.
Sometimes it is even necessary to bribe paparazzi reporters to take their photos and help them gain some exposure.
Tonight, this cocktail party hosted by Vivendi.
The scale is so grand and so many European stars have been invited.
It’s impossible for those paparazzi reporters in Europe not to know.
In the afternoon, many paparazzi reporters from all over Europe heard about it and came here.
TOEFL Europe has a very good air network, so it is not difficult to get to Paris from other European regions.
Come like this.
Outside the Machopsey Hotel in Saint-Ouen, a large number of local European paparazzi reporters gathered in a very short period of time.
When a convoy of seven black cars slowly entered the scene around the hotel.
This naturally attracted the attention of reporters, people watching the melon-eating, as well as hotel and reception staff.
Today, when other European stars or European entertainment celebrities come to attend today's cocktail party, they will only have a luxury car or a nanny car at most.
Most of the seven black cars that suddenly appeared were valuable Rolls-Royces.
After forming the team, the aura was very shocking.
The impressive motorcade made the surrounding reporters, guests, pedestrians and hotel staff look askance.
There were eye-catching paparazzi, and I immediately remembered the scene that happened at the entrance of the Vivendi Building in the morning.
Some paparazzi shouted excitedly: "Hey! It's this convoy again, the Americans are coming! The world's richest man is coming!"
Other colleagues around him were reminded, which made everyone excited all of a sudden.
The flash suddenly turned the surroundings into daylight, and I started shooting like crazy without paying for the film.
After ensuring safety.
Abel got off the bus in order to leave a good impression on old Europe.
He was also in front of the car door, smiling and waving in the direction of the reporters.
He was already experienced and put on sunglasses when he got off the bus.
This will prevent your eyes from being dazzled.
After standing there for about ten seconds, I felt I had taken enough photos.
Abel refused to be interviewed at all, and was escorted by the rock security staff to the interior of the St. Oenma Cheapside Hotel.
The general manager of the Machopsey Hotel in Saint-Ouen, a bald man named Henry, had already welcomed him out.
"Hello Mr. Smith, my name is Henry Plec, I."
The world's richest man is here, even if it's a top hotel in Paris.
Hotel Saint-Ouen Machapsay will also attach great importance to it.
Because in the future, this hotel will be able to claim that the world's richest man once stayed at their hotel.
To some extent, this has improved the hotel's reputation.
Abel smiled and did not answer, leaving David to deal with it.
To Abel, he was just the general manager of a high-end hotel in Paris.
It has nothing to do with itself.
There is no way Abel would waste time on a bald guy.
In addition, the senior executives of Vivendi Global Group quickly welcomed him after learning about his arrival.
The person who came was even Jean-Marie Messier himself, the number one person in the European entertainment industry.
Warmly welcomed by Vivendi CEO.
After Abel appeared.
European stars who could only compete in Europe, under the leadership of the giant Spike.
More than 200 people at the cocktail reception all applauded to welcome the American guests.
Behind him was Jean-Marie Messier, who gave a passionate speech.
After Jean-Marie Messier finished speaking, he handed the microphone to Abel with a smile.
Abel took the microphone, under the gaze of more than two hundred European entertainment elites.
He showed no stage fright and said with a smile: "I am very happy to be here today and meet you gentlemen and ladies."
"I am actually in the entertainment industry myself. Everyone knows that I have a film company, a TV station, and a music and record company. So to a certain extent, we are actually the same person."
"I am here today to announce something. The gentlemen of Vivendi already know about this matter."
"Mr. Messier." At this point, Abel asked Jean-Marie Messier with a smile, "Should I say it, or you?"
Jean-Marie Messier said politely: "You tell me, Mr. Smith."
Abel smiled, then took the microphone and continued to speak.
"What will be announced today is that Smith Media will launch a "European Star Project" with Vivendi in Europe and the United States."
"The purpose of the "European Star Project" is to package some outstanding European directors, actors, and singers and promote them to North America and even the world."
"The specific situation is that Smith Media and Vivendi will jointly spend 500 million euros, and a total of 1 billion euros will be collected to implement this plan."
"This plan is expected to shoot 5-8 movies, 5 TV series, and release about 10 albums. It will be jointly promoted by Smith and Vivendi. The work within this plan will share resources between the two parties."
"This will be a major event for entertainment media in Europe and North America. If everyone present is interested, you can go to Vivendi to learn about the situation."
Having said this, Abel smiled and looked at Jean-Marie Messier, "Am I right to say that, Mr. Messier?"
Jean-Marie Messier laughed and said: "That's right, that's what it means."
This matter is between the two parties, after they have negotiated the shares of NBC TV station today.
When Jean-Marie Mercier took Abel to visit Vivendi, they came up with an outline.
After this announcement, Vivendi and Smith Media will begin specific negotiations.
The central idea is just like what Abel just said.
Specific cooperation details and terms will require a period of negotiation and consultation between the two companies.
This proposal was put forward by Abel, and Vivendi's senior management agreed after a brief discussion.
From both sides' point of view, if this plan can be implemented.
Both parties can benefit from it.
First up is Smith Media.
The emergence and rise of Smith Media was too fast, and Abel has not shown much favor to the Oilers until now.
The American media industry has become somewhat resistant to him.
Some Hollywood giants are preparing to unite to fight against MGM, which may be unstoppable next year.
Although it will not be banned, because it is too large, it has been able to form its own system.
But a certain degree of cold war is possible for other media giants.
Robert expressed this concern to Abel.
Abel also knew this might happen.
In fact, it can be said to be very simple to break this situation.
As long as Abel reveals his good feelings to the Oilers and even cooperates with them.
Then this kind of vague cold war will end soon, but in that case, Smith Media will also be stained with a light layer of oil.
Just like News Corporation now.
Abel was not very resistant to this, because it was just a layer of oil on the surface.
The control is still in your own hands.
The art student who failed the exam was not oily in the early stage.
When those oil man Wall Street bosses gave him loans, they were generous.
This kind of cooperation and the smell of oil on the body will not prevent the unsuccessful students from vigorously removing oil in the end.
