Chapter 35: Gisele Bundchen with Heart(1/2)
"....Okay, okay, goodbye, dear Mr. Smith~~and dear Anne~"
"Goodbye~"
The entrance to Charlie Brown's Pizza.
Michael Levine and his colleague Derek Wright stood on the side of the road and watched two black cars leave.
The figure waiting for the car disappeared behind the corner of the street.
Two senior brokers from the innovative elite brokerage company turned to look at each other.
Derek Wright says:
"Michael, do you really believe that this young Wall Street tycoon used money to support Anne Hathaway?"
"You know.
Wall Street people, they never have a good opinion of Hollywood."
Michael Levine knows that Derek Wright is right.
Since the 1990s.
Those working on Wall Street hate Hollywood deeply.
The reason is,
These are not those who are involved in finance and do not like to engage in film art.
The fault lies with Hollywood.
In the 1980s, Wall Street was looking for new sources of profits.
These greedy financial players set their sights on Hollywood, which was booming at the time.
In those ten years, many Hollywood-related investment companies and entertainment funds appeared on Wall Street.
These Wall Street capitals have gradually entered Hollywood to test the waters.
Most of them participate in some film projects and enter as investors.
A small part is invested in entertainment companies.
result.....
Generally speaking, Wall Street, which has always been unfavorable, has been screwed in Hollywood.
More than 95% of Wall Street's investments in Hollywood were thrown into the water and lost their money.
It's okay once or twice, and it's been like this for several years in a row.
No matter how greedy Wall Street is, they still know that they have been fooled by those people on the West Coast.
After entering the 1990s, even though Hollywood has been developing better and better.
It has begun to go global and open up the entertainment market in more and more countries.
But for Wall Street, it has completely lost its appeal because it is uncontrollable.
The vast majority of Wall Street practitioners regard Hollywood as a pit for financial investment.
The returns are low, the risks are infinite, and the process is difficult to accept manipulation by Wall Street.
This kind of investment product is deeply hated by Wall Street.
This is the biggest loss Wall Street has ever suffered.
It happened just a few years ago, between Michael Levine and Derek Wright.
At that time, like other Hollywood practitioners, they joined forces to defraud Wall Street.
Derek Wright, that's what he said now.
Michael shrugged, "What does it matter if it's true or false? The most important thing is that we don't have to be held accountable by the New York legal queen anymore."
"Wright, this will at least save us millions of dollars in legal fees."
Derek Wright nodded: "That's right..."
Say so.
Derek Wright felt that today's Michael Levine seemed a little distant from him.
There was no time to wait for Derek Wright to think carefully.
A pleasant female voice with a slight Latin American accent sounded slightly unexpectedly next to the two of them.
"Ah~ Mr. Levine! Mr. Delight!
Why are you here?
I'm so happy to see you here.
Today is a really lucky day for me."
Two veterans of innovative elite brokerage turned around.
They saw a man who was at least 180cm tall.
After wearing high heels, the slim girl is taller than the two of them.
The girl was carrying a Chanel Birkin bag and stood not far from the two of them with a surprised look on her face.
Seeing this girl, Michael Levine blurted out:
"Hello, Miss Bündchen. It looks like you are shopping, right? I'm very happy to see you."
Derek Wright also smiled and nodded towards the other party with a very friendly attitude.
The other party is a client of CAA, or one of their joint maintenance clients.
Her name is Gisele Bundchen, and she is one of the famous new stars in the modeling industry in recent years.
The other party signed a contract to join caa company in March this year.
The leader was Michael Levine, and Derek Wright was also assigned by CAA as her graphic model agent.
"Yeah. I have a day off today. There is a coffee shop that I like here.
I just came out after drinking coffee there, and I happened to meet you here."
"Gentlemen, nice to see you."
"So are we." Derek Wright said with a smile.
After Michael Levin said hello, he looked at the beautiful and graceful Gisele Bundchen in front of him, and a vague idea flashed through his mind.
Gisele Bundchen here,
This guy just turned twenty.
With the help of CAA, she successfully signed a young model with Victoria's Secret.
She had something in her heart for her two agents.
The attitude can be said to be very good.
Very ambitious, young Gisele Bundchen.
Having signed a contract with Victoria's Secret, she is not just satisfied with being an ordinary Victoria's Secret model.
She wants help from CAA,
Won the unprecedented right to wear underwear at a sky-high price in Victoria’s Secret’s crucial Christmas show this year!!
If it were just Gisele Bundchen herself, there wouldn't be much hope.
Because there are many competitors.
Even if she is as outstanding as she is, she already won vh1/vogue Model of the Year last year.
When facing these competitors, its strength is still somewhat lacking.
But if CAA can fully help, the hope will be much greater.
This is why she is willing to join CAA this year and follow CAA's advice to sign with Victoria's Secret.
The competition for wearers of sky-high-priced underwear has begun, and the results will not be announced until the end of October this year.
All she wants is to get this honor for herself within these two months.
Unprecedented, never before seen, a model of astronomically priced underwear worth $15 million!
Even if Victoria's Secret goes bankrupt in the future.
Models who have had this level of experience can also leave a mark in the history of international modeling.
This is what Gisele Bundchen wants.
So in fact, her encounter with the two agents now was not an accidental encounter.
She was indeed shopping around, but she saw Michael Levine and Derek Wright entering Charlie Brown's Pizza.
Deliberately staying nearby, waiting for the two agents to come out, and then running over to meet them.
