Chapter 132: driven by interests

After sending Dunn away, Natalie muttered, "What an idiot, what's the use of earning so much money, you have to pay taxes!"

Shirley Hirschler laughed, thought of something, and asked tentatively, "Nate, you... How far have you and Dunn developed?"

"Love."

Natalie responded casually, apparently ignoring her meaning.

Shirley Hirschler paused, "I mean...I mean you...have sex?"

"What's the matter?" Natalie froze for a moment, then blushed. "Mom, what are you talking about? I'm tired and I'm going to bed."

"and many more!"

Shirley Hirschler stopped Natalie, staring at her with a solemn expression, "Nate, what the **** is going on?"

"What's going on?" Natalie felt embarrassed about this topic.

Shirley Hirschler said: "You are all young people, you must go on a date together, and then... enjoy the happiness, could it be that Dunn treats you..."

"Oh, stop guessing!" Natalie stomped her feet angrily. "He treats me very well, and... also likes me very much, I can feel it."

"Then why do you..."

"I refused."

"Why?" Shirley Hirschler froze for a moment. "Nate, didn't you always complain about my strict control? Now that you are an adult, no one can deprive you of the right to enjoy pleasure."

Natalie said displeasedly, "Dad doesn't strictly prohibit pre-marriage..."

"Don't worry about him!" Shirley Hirschler frowned and waved her hands in dissatisfaction. "Nate, you grew up in America, and you don't have to be bound by those pedantic and old-fashioned teachings. It's the 21st century, society The atmosphere is completely different from 2,000 years ago."

"But……"

Natalie wanted to tell the truth, but after thinking about it, she and Dunn's **** was involved, and she said, "Dad would be very annoyed if he did."

"Don't worry about that old antique! Be serious, and I'll keep it from you, he will definitely not know."

"Oh, then...then I'll think about it again."

Natalie hesitated before making up her mind.

Shirley Hirschler frowned, walked over, hugged her daughter gently in her arms, and lowered her voice, "Dear, you know I'm at Dunn Films, did you hear anything?"

Natalie pouted, "I know that Dunn has an affair with his two female secretaries. We talked about this issue, you don't need to worry about it."

Shirley Hirschler shook her head and stared into her eyes cautiously and admonishingly, "I heard that Dunn made at least one billion dollars in stocks on Nasdaq."

"A billion dollars?"

Natalie's eyes widened and she wrote incredulously, "Mom, are you kidding me?"

"Of course not!" Shirley Hirschler said firmly, "remember that little girl, Taylor Swift, we helped her get in touch with her music teacher in New York."

"Remember, Dunn and I have watched her children's play." Natalie nodded.

"Yes, that's her. Taylor's mother often consults me about educating her daughter recently, and we communicate more frequently. I just learned that Taylor's father is a stockbroker and is now in New York, helping Dunn to trade stocks. "

Natalie bit her lip and was silent for a long time.

"Nate, I checked the accounts and found that the box office dividends that Dunn got from it were not invested in Dunn Films. Now that I think about it, he must have used it to invest in the stock market. This matter is absolutely true!" Shirley He Xu Le's face was a little excited and a little complicated.

"I'll call to see if this is true."

Natalie remembered her agreement with Dunn at the reception, and her mood was a little ups and downs. She really did not expect that in addition to movies, Dunn also has a strong ability to make money in other fields.

Shirley Hirschler stopped immediately, "Don't, Nat, are you confused? How could he tell you about this?"

Natalie raised her white snow neck, and a bit of mockery appeared on her face, "You don't understand our relationship, he... he won't hide it from me!"

Then, under her mother's suspicious and surprised eyes, she took out her mobile phone, spoke for three minutes, sighed faintly, and hung up the phone.

"How about it?"

Shirley Hirschler's expression was a little eager.

Natalie nodded calmly, "He admitted it, but it's not that much. It's a billion dollars in total, which is pre-tax income. He also said that he will enter the futures market recently and make a lot of money." i>

Shirley Hirschler was speechless, staring at her daughter blankly, speechless.

"Okay, I'm tired, let's go to rest."

Natalie waved her hand gently and walked to her bedroom.

Shirley Hirschler suddenly shouted from behind, "Nate, it's time to make a decision, Dunn has some shortcomings, but he has a sense of responsibility, and he will not be ungrateful! Don't miss out on being so good because of that little flaw. man."

Natalie stopped for a while, of course she understood what Shirley meant by "weakness" and "excellent".

"Okay, mom, I understand what you said, I... I won't let you down."

Natalie's voice was as clean as running water.

...

Bill McNick has been in a panic since he received Dunn's invitation.

Of course he was unwilling to leave Fox, and he also hoped that he would be given another chance to wrestle with Tom Rothman again, instead of leaving in such a dismal manner as he is now.

But……

Is Dunn Pictures, a film studio that does not even have a distribution department, a platform that can compete with Fox?

Relying on Marvel?

He never liked superhero movies.

However, it is not his position that he is worried about now, but his old friends.

Bill McNick joined Fox from Disney and was given reuse. He also attracted a group of confidants and even old friends who have been friends for decades.

However, just three days ago, his longtime friend Paul Horvath, a professor emeritus at Yale Law School and legal adviser to Twentieth Century Fox, was tragically fired.

Even more confidants in the production department left, including Grant Hill, who had also produced.

Since he left Fox, more than 20 people have been fired one after another.

In the past five years, Bill McNick has managed 20th Century Fox in an orderly manner. The company's development speed is second only to Warner Bros., and its annual performance revenue is also firmly in the top three. It is because of such an elite team.

Unexpectedly, it ended up being a collective fire!

At this time, his personal cell phone rang, and when he answered, it was an acquaintance, the very young and talented director Steven Soderbergh.

"I have a hunch that you don't just care about me by making this call." Bill McNick has a very bad hunch.

Steven Soderbergh gave a wry smile, "Bill, you guessed it, something went wrong with my movie."

He adapted a British TV series and found 20th Century Fox for investment. Bill McNick was very optimistic about this project and admired his ability, so he directly ordered the production department to pass the review.

"what happened?"

"They said...over $50 million for an R-rated film is ridiculous, and they don't want to go through another similar failure."

Steven Soderbergh was telling the truth, but somewhat irritated his suspicions.

The main thing is to get Bill McNick to network and help him find investment for his film project.

In fact, Tom Rothman's idea is not wrong, the fiasco, gave Fox a serious lesson. The subject matter is more sensitive and sharp than Fox, and it is impossible for Fox to continue to invest heavily.

"Tom Rothman, he's bullshitting!"

Bill McNick was very annoyed that he personally reviewed the film and personally approved the $52 million investment budget.

Unexpectedly, he left Fox with his front foot, and Fox with his back foot tore up his past resolutions.

Steven Soderbergh sighed helplessly, "Bill, I have contacted several film companies, and they... they are not willing to invest so much money in an R-rated film."

Bill McNick understood what the other party meant, and was a little embarrassed for a while.

The project had already been set up and actors were being recruited, and filming started two months later. Unexpectedly, his sudden resignation directly led to the bankruptcy of the project.

In any case, Bill McNick felt the need to take responsibility, and suddenly another young face appeared in his mind, "You... Have you ever gone to Dunn Pictures?"

"Dawn Pictures?" Steven Soderbergh was stunned for a moment, very puzzled ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ US dollar investment, I am afraid that director Walker does not have such great courage? "

"do not have it?"

Bill McNick narrowed his eyes and pondered a little.

Dunn dared to buy Marvel Entertainment with all his wealth, and then use all his assets to take out a loan when all the superhero movies were dead.

This is equivalent to a gamble-like decision, isn't it called courage?

"Steven, don't worry, Dunn's side, I'll ask you first."

After finishing the call with Steven Soderbergh, Bill McNick sat down for half a minute to check the date. Today is January 25th.

He frowned slightly, picked up the phone again, and dialed a number.

"Hey, Bill, have you figured it out?" On the other end of the phone, it was Dunn's beating voice.

Bill McNick hesitated and smiled: "Dawn, I have a few Super Bowl tickets in my hand. The location is good. Are you interested in watching the game live?"

"Okay!" Dunn agreed neatly, "I also bought a commercial, a trailer."

Bill McNick laughed, "Dawn, it seems that you pay more attention to movies than the Super Bowl!"

"Of course, we are filmmakers, and it is our dream to create our own favorite movies."

"Dream..."

Bill McNick was distracted.
