Chapter 829

Karen Mulder pushed open the door of Grace's office and saw that vestero was here. He could not afford to break in so many times. He went straight to Simon and said, "Mr. vestero, I'm Karen. I'm sorry, but maybe you have any misunderstanding about me. Can you give me some explanation time?"

The girl said that she had come to the desk, but she didn't dare to bully Simon. She looked at the man across the desk expectantly.

Before Simon could speak, Cindy Crawford said, "don't you think it's rude, Karen? I think you should go out first

Karen Mulder ignored Cindy's aggressiveness and just looked more pitifully.

Simon didn't get angry. He looked at the girls who were more pleasing to the eye after the plastic surgery. He also tilted the toe of his desk toward the other side: "come here."

Karen Mulder saw that vestero didn't drive her out immediately, and immediately had a sense of hope. She obediently walked around the desk to Simon's left side and leaned against the edge of the table like Cindy. The girl was still holding her satchel in her hands in front of her. She noticed that westero looked at herself and quickly put her bag beside him, leaning slightly.

Simon is actually appreciating a pop graffiti style long sleeve low cut knee length skirt that Karen Mulder is wearing today. After a moment, he asked, "this skirt has a great design. Which brand is it?"

Karen Mulder found that the man's attention turned out to be on her skirt. She was a little lost, but she hurriedly said, "kouyi, this is the latest spring and summer style just released this year."

Simon nodded: "it's beautiful."

Cindy gently put her hand on Simon's calf and grabbed the topic: "Simon, if you like, it's a good time to buy kouyi. I heard that the company's business has not been very smooth in recent years, and it lost money last year, but kouyi's design style is really great. Now it's Carl who is also the creative director."

Simon raised his left leg, folded it over Cindy's hand and said with a smile, "if you think a dress is beautiful, you have to buy a company, but I can't buy it."

Cindy said, "it's 600 billion dollars. You can buy whatever you want. It's like, um, elite."

Simon is noncommittal.

On the contrary, Cindy became interested and continued to encourage: "I really think kouyi is very suitable. It has its own unique style and does not conflict with melisandro's existing brand. You see, Gucci is publicity, Versace is gorgeous, CK is avant-garde, burberry is classic, and kouyi, I think it's rebellious enough, just like Karen's skirt, the design is very bold. What's more, kouyiqia is at a low point. Just like Gucci and CK in previous years, it's a good time to make a bottom

Simon slightly raises his eyebrows, but he really wants to ask Cindy a question. Do you know why some brands like kouyi have fallen into the trough again in recent years?

It's time to stop talking.

This is melisandro's development strategy that only he and Sophia have talked about in private.

In fact, it's still those four words.

There is a trade-off.

After winning several brands in a row, melisandro's "aircraft carrier battle group" model has been completely formed. The next thing to do is to continuously squeeze the market share of other first and second tier luxury brands through continuous expansion, and finally wipe out as many competitors as possible.

Simon doesn't know much about Coyle.

However, since it is not a melisandro brand, it can only be a competitor.

Cindy's words say that Carla Lagerfeld, the "old Foye", as the creative director of kouyi, has failed to stop the decline trend of the brand. Maybe there is a reason for the brand's own business strategy mistakes, but certainly there is no reason that Melissa excels to occupy its living space.

In fact, Simon is currently implementing the same strategy in Hollywood.

The current target is mainly Colombia, Disney and paramount, which happen to be in the hands of overseas companies.

A few years ago, in order to avoid the rebound of other Hollywood studios caused by Denise entertainment, Simon would take the initiative to cooperate with these companies in some projects.

That's why the latest batch of films are not as popular as the three in Colombia.

In fact, doing so may make the three behind the scenes overseas giants sell them again in order to stop losses, and may return to the hands of local enterprises in the United States. However, after repeated twists and turns, these former Hollywood studios, even if they can continue to survive, will certainly be among the second rate studios, and will no longer be able to compete with several first-line giants such as Denise entertainment .

Some things can't be disclosed to Cindy. Simon just joked: "I can't imagine you will ponder these things in your daily life. Do you also plan to create a fashion brand?"

Seeing Simon change the subject, Cindy stopped and said, "of course, I've thought about it, but I know I'm likely to screw it up, so I'm not going to mess with it."

"It's self-knowledge," Simon said with a smile. "What happened to your fair play?"

Simon mentioned this, Cindy immediately some lost: "warner has been fixed, October 13 schedule.""Cemetery."

January, February and September are the coldest periods in the North American film market, commonly known as the movie cemetery. Although there is no lack of dark horse occasionally, most of the films lost in this period are not optimistic by the studio, and few of them are really successful.

Cindy starred in the spy film "fair play" with the background of the cold war. Simon has an impression in his memory.

This is the first and last female film that Cindy Crawford has ever tried to break into Hollywood. The $50 million blockbuster production budget ended in a box office fiasco, and the first generation supermodel, who rose in the 1980s, gradually retired and chose to get married and have children.

Simon had dissuaded Cindy from taking part in the film at the beginning. Now, judging from Warner's fixed files, the quality of the film is still unsatisfactory.

Hollywood circle is actually very superstitious. Even if the actor is not responsible for the failure of the final film, other film companies will avoid the main creators because of the failure of the project.

Cindy has seen the "fair play" sample film and doesn't expect much from it. After hearing Simon say so, her expression is a little more pathetic. She touches Simon's leg and takes the opportunity to say, "Simon, I want to sign another three-year contract with Vimy. What do you think?"

Simon was not moved by Cindy's little movements and expressions. He shook his head and said, "I have other plans for this. If I remember correctly, you were born in 1966 and will be 30 next year. Have you never thought of doing anything else? "

Cindy froze and quickly said, "thought about it, didn't it fail? Simon, please, I can get the same salary as them, even if I sign for another two years. How about that? "

Simon responded that he had just talked about fair play, which was obviously a failure of transformation. Hearing Cindy's offer, he shook his head and said, "it's too much of a bargain. I'd rather not. In addition, even if you step down as a spokesperson, you can continue to be on the stage of v-mi. "

How can the resources available for a simple catwalk and a VIP spokesperson be the same.

Seeing that Cindy still had to say something more, Simon waved his hand: "it's not discussed. Cindy, in fact IELTS will quit with you this time. She signed for five years, but still insists on quitting. She plans to do something behind the scenes. You should learn from her."

Cindy's tone was sour when she heard the words: "if I had 100 million dollars, I would retire now. Simon, how about you recommend me to invest in some Internet projects like instagram? "

"There are a lot of opportunities in the last year or two, such as igritte, which is going to be listed soon, as well as Tinkerbell and melisandro. If you are interested, you can take money to subscribe for a batch of shares, and I'll say hello to you."

Cindy questioned: "I read in the newspaper that the IPO valuations of these companies are too high. I said that there is no room for growth."

Simon's tone was firm: "there must be."

Cindy's face is still indecisive. She is one of the old supermodels who can manage money better. She has accumulated a good fortune over the years. If it's a start-up like instagram, it's OK for her to spend hundreds of millions of dollars. She's a little reluctant to buy shares in companies like igritte.

now many media think that the new technology industry bubble has been very serious, at any time may break up, even if let her take part of the savings, in case of falling into the water, it will be very painful.

Cindy would rather invest in real estate than stocks.

saw that the girl did not agree. Simon did not say much. At this stage, CISCO's share price has gone further, breaking through the $200 billion mark, and the market value of other AOL, Microsoft and other companies has reached 100 billion level. In many people's view, these enterprises already have very serious bubble components, and in fact, they are also facts.

however, the peak of the new technology industry bubble is still far away from Simon's view.

For Cindy, it's very hard for Simon to give some advice, just like last time he advised girls not to take part in fair play. After all, he doesn't have much to do with himself. If he doesn't listen, Simon won't bother to force him.

Fernanda Lima, who finally made the coffee, came to Simon with a cup of hot coffee in his hand and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. westero. There are only disposable paper cups."

Simon nodded, took back his legs on the desk and sat up. Because of his instinctive cleanliness, he didn't want to drop his feet on the ground. He raised his legs slightly and looked down for his shoes.

Karen Mulder, who just opened the door and couldn't get in any more words, suddenly squatted down and took Simon's shoes. She noticed that the squatting posture was still a little high, and then she just knelt down on the floor and helped the man put on his shoes like a docile maid.

Simon is not polite. He turns the leather chair slightly. One foot is held by Karen Mulder, and the other is on the girl's elastic thigh. Seeing Cindy's indecisive expression, he smiles and signals, "don't you want to help me put on my shoes?"

Cindy rolled her eyes and saw that Karen Mulder had taken the man's other foot. She said, "I'm not your maid.""Oh, it's not easy to be my maid. You're not up to standard except for being beautiful."

Cindy reacts, thinking of ABCD, thinking of Alice Ferguson, thinking of Sophia faessy It seems, indeed.

After putting on two shoes, Simon patted himself on the knee. Karen Mulder didn't get up wisely, but came forward and lay obediently on the man's lap.

After taking the coffee from Fernanda, Simon took a sip. Then he looked at his girl and asked, "so, what's the matter with you? Hasn't grey signed you? This time she is in charge of elite, it will only benefit you more?"

Karen Mulder hesitated and didn't know how to answer. Cindy, who couldn't stand her flattery, had already revealed: "last week, grey and John fell out. Trish, they were all standing with grey. She was the only one who couldn't wait to be transferred to John again."

Karen Mulder gave a hateful look at Cindy, then turned to Simon. The girl didn't quibble, but said pitifully, "Simon, I'm wrong. Can you talk to grey, please forgive me this time, I promise, there will be no next time."

"It seems very serious," Simon leaned on the armrest of the leather chair, reached out to pick the chin of the girl, and said, "but you're just so good. I'll talk to grey later, and I'll let you go this time."

"Oh, thank you, Simon. I really appreciate you, oh Ooh, I'm sorry. I'm a little bit impolite. I'm so sorry. I just... "

Karen Mulder didn't doubt Simon's right to speak in front of grace at all. She thought there would be a catastrophe, but she didn't expect that things would pass so easily. As she said thanks, she could not help but shed tears. Ever since she got the news of elite's upheaval in the morning and realized what had happened, she almost collapsed.

Simon looked at the girl with a grinning and crying on her legs, but there was no contempt in her heart.

Now a young girl who is only 25 years old has been on the market for 10 years. After many twists and turns, she can get a deeper understanding of how difficult it is for the fashion industry to reach the top. She is even more afraid of losing all this.

In the past, Karen Mulder suffered from depression because of the decline of her career in the late 1990s. She had plastic surgery like obsessive-compulsive disorder and all kinds of hysteria.

In the final analysis, there is no place for vanity fair.

In fact, most people who enter this circle are like this.

Whether it's fashion or Hollywood.

Just like Robert Downey Jr., later people only saw the various scenes of this marvel brother, but they didn't know that Downey was not only addicted to drugs for a long time before turning red with iron man, but also broke down in private more than once, crying to his friends and complaining about why he didn't meet Leonardo and why he couldn't be as popular as Johnny Depp.

Robert Downey Jr. was born in Hollywood, and can show his face in his father's movies at the age of 7. Compared with those little actors who have no foundation at all, Downey has never been short of opportunities after his debut. In his twenties, he can get the best actor Oscar nomination, so he has a deeper feeling of the top of the vanity fair.

However, the more so, the more unable to let go.

Therefore, there are a lot of common people don't understand the situation in the circle: so and so has so much money, even if it is enough to retire immediately for a lifetime, why is it still like this?

That's why.

Even Simon himself, who once thought he was free and easy, was indifferent enough to what he already had. However, this indifference, in fact, is because they know that they have enough, and it is difficult to be taken away, this will be calm. If Simon suddenly loses everything he has now, he is likely to go crazy, too.
