"50 million?!" In the same office, Sean opened his eyes wide in disbelief.

"Yes, 50 million." Vladimir sighed, his face very badly.

After October, although various fundraising activities were still underway, and many national forces began to gather in the Persian Gulf, the pain caused by 911 has begun to slow down. After all, most people saw the collapse of the Twin Towers through TV, and the impact they felt was not as strong as those on the scene in New York.

Life has to continue, so various activities have begun to return to normal, and Vladimir also brought good news and bad news to Sean.

The good news is that the remake of "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre" cost only 2 million yuan to get it, and the cost required for the movie is estimated to be about 12 million yuan, but compared to the bad news he brought, the good news is a bit worth mentioning. When Sean hurriedly finished the recording and rushed to the office from the studio, he was told by Vladimir that Simon Fuller's Lion asked for a price of 50 million yuan.

"This is too exaggerated. Even if "Pop Idol" is currently very popular in the UK, it is not worth the price! Did he forget that no TV station in Hollywood is willing to take over!" Sean said with some annoyance.

"So, he actually doesn't want to buy it." Vladimir sighed.

Sean didn't say anything, sat down and frowned, blocked his mouth with the back of his hand and remained silent for a few minutes, then clenched his fists: "I'll buy it!"

"What did you say?!" Vladimir's eyes widened.

"I bought the copyright for 50 million yuan." Sean raised his head and said word by word.

Vladimir kept his shocked look and seemed to want to say: Are you crazy? But looking at Sean's firm gaze, he finally said nothing.

"...Okay, I'll notify him now." After swallowing his hardship, the new CEO of Wong Reincarnation Pictures replied, and then went out to make a call.

Sean, leaning on the back of the chair, breathed a sigh of relief. Although he was unwilling to give up, he could only tell himself in his heart that it doesn’t matter. The 50 million will bring him several times the profit in the next ten years and the influence he can’t buy with money! As long as you do this show!

However, what went against my wishes was that the other party chose to refuse.

"What does that bastard mean?" Sean finally couldn't help but roar, and even cursed the swear words like "motherfucker".

"He said he was sorry. He said that the number was not asking for a huge price, he just wanted us to give up. Then he said that "Pop Idol" is his hard work and he will not buy the copyright." Vladimir sighed with an expression that he couldn't understand, "Anyway, he is very grateful for our attention, but unfortunately he cannot agree to our request."

"****!" Sean still looked angry, "He just saw that we had no strength, so he refused. If we could have a close relationship with the four major TV stations, this damn bastard would have crawled over long ago. Even if he refused to sell the copyright, he would have asked for cooperation!"

After venting this, Sean finally calmed down after taking a few deep breaths.

"Sorry, Todd, I've lost my composure." He said this first.

"It's okay, if I'm in your position, I'll be angry when I hear this news." Vladimir comforted.

"Since that's the case, let's make a reality show that belongs entirely to us, and it's better to have a reality show similar to Pop Idols." Sean said after tidying up his collar.

"A reality show that belongs entirely to us, similar to Pop Idol?" Vladimir failed to understand.

"Yes, Pop Idol is a talent show about singers, right? But the talent show is not limited to singers, right?" Sean sorted out his thoughts, his eyes shining inexplicable light.

"Well...yes." Vladimir frowned, trying to keep up with his idea, "So what kind of talent show can we make besides singers? Actors?"

"No, I mean - model!" Sean's eyes became brighter. "You should know the women's underwear brand of 'Victoria'. They make show runways and have brought out many models every year. I happen to know one of them. They can get into a relationship with Victoria's Secret, and then invite their chief model to serve as judges or hosts, and imitate "Pop Idols" to conduct a model talent show."

"This is not easy. Although we can copy the various settings of "Pop Idol", it is not a secret. You can understand by watching a few more episodes, but we cannot convince 'Victoria' that this talent show will be successful. Moreover, they are now considered well-known clothing brands, and our qualifications are relatively shallow." Vladimir said as he frowned and recalled the information.

"So, I have a question, where do you think talent shows like Pop Idol are the most popular, or most likely to be popular?" Sean asked immediately.

"Entrepreneurship," Vladimir replied quickly, "everyone can participate, and the process is transparent, meaning everyone can succeed."

"This is one, what else?" Sean asked.

"Tell me directly, Sean." Vladimir said depressedly.

"Okay, that's power!" Sean laughed. "This kind of talent show can give the audience an illusion that the singers and models who are dazzling on the stage are selected and decided by them, and it's like..."

"General election!" Vladimir immediately took over.

"It's that, making the audience feel that there is power in their hands. This is the true meaning of the talent show." Sean nodded heavily. After getting angry about Fuller's incident, his head suddenly became much clearer, even more sober than usual. In a moment, he flashed many things from front of him and grabbed them all, and then quickly jumped up.

"Indeed, this should be a good rhetoric. In addition, if their chief model is invited to serve as judges or hosts, it is also a promotion for "Victoria's Secret". Moreover, they are backed by CBS, so they don't have to worry about not being able to find a TV station to broadcast. Then what we have to do next is to determine the general process of "Pop Idol", then design our model draft process, and then contact "Victoria's Secret."

"We can also give a name for the hottest point. What do you think of the 'American Supermodel Contest'?" Sean added.

"Sounds so grand." Vladimir laughed.

"So, then do it." Sean made the final decision.

It is indeed unpleasant news that Fuller still refuses to sell it at a bid of 50 million yuan. Since that's the case, it's better to do his own talent show. Of course, if you want to talk about your future fame, it will definitely be worse than "Pop Idol". After all, Sean only took a little time to recall "Pop Idol", but the others were impressed by this stimulation.

But it doesn't matter. Since you can't start with quality, then you can find a way to increase the quantity. Anyway, there are a lot of things you recall this time, so take time to write them down one by one, and then...

We must also hurry up by contacting Victoria's Secret. Frankly speaking, Sean didn't expect at first that there was already a "Pop Idol" program, and it would be great if he could think of it one year in the morning. But then again, even if he thought of this idea, he might not be able to make it. After all, Fuller had this idea after discovering and losing the hot girl group. He had a deep understanding of popular elements. Without such experience, it was hard to say whether he could grasp the audience's appetite.

But there is no need to be too nervous. I believe Vladimir can handle these things. He initially suggested that these things were him, and now he is a shareholder of Reincarnation Film. He wants to create miracles with Sean, so of course he has to use his talents to show his talents.

Letting go of this for the time being, two other good news came. The first one came from Neil. When the multinational troops led by the United States officially launched an attack on Afghanistan on October 7, Neil also stopped in the stock market. Putting aside the 10 million principal he gave at the beginning, he made a profit of 50 million for Sean!

"You know, the government then introduced various policies to stabilize the stock market, so it would not make much money in a short period of time. However, because the war was about to start, futures such as gold, crude oil were bullish, so they shorted stocks and long futures, and took action at the same time. Although the time was a little shorter, they could not make as much as they did last time, it was not bad." Neil said so.

Indeed, five times the profit is already very good. Although ten times the profit is attractive, you have to do it within your means. Sean is already very happy. This money, coupled with the profits he received from "My Grand Greek Wedding", he is now considered to be a billionaire.

Now you can buy a large-scale luxury house in Beverly Hills without any scruples, and you can invest more when raising funds to ensure your voice. If you can't be proud of this, how can you be proud of it? Of course, when you returned to San Francisco due to the terrorist attack, he did not say that the old man's temper is not as good as him. Even if he exceeds it, he can still choose to ignore it.

Therefore, it is only meaningful to say this when you leave his choice behind and reach a height that he cannot ignore.

Well, this is good news, and there is also good news... Actually, this is not good news. It has been decided before. Jordanna promised to play the leading role in the remake of "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre".
