American Fortune Life

In a somewhat annoyed tone, Charlize told the original story, and made Andy cried and laughed, but also a little speechless. People told her that there was nothing wrong with it, and if he did, he would tell ...

It turned out that in 2005, Charlize had taken the spokesperson of the Swiss watch brand at a high price of 3 million US dollars. According to the contract, she must wear the brand watch to appear in all commercial occasions.

From October 2005 to December 2006, Theron was only allowed to wear high-end watches made by Raymond Weil. Raymond Weil could use the photos of Theron to advertise, but the big beautiful girl in her own house wore a d watch instead of the Raymond Weil brand in a photo taken on March 14, 2006. Theron was attending a film festival in Austin.

The watch maker sued, and charged him with a "wrong watch".

"Oh, you are really ..." Andy shook her head helplessly, what can be said, it is clear that this is the problem of her own woman, although she was not her own woman at that time.

"Say, how much money did you collect? I don't believe you only violated this time. Oscars, Golden Globes and other awards, you won't be wearing this Raymondville honestly, right?" Andy Very clear Hollywood paid dressing rules.

"Damn, the agreement only forbids me from wearing jewelry to attend any advertising-qualified events. The film festival, Oscar is not in this category at all. They are blackmailers, and I was not an American when I signed the contract. I do n’t understand. Why the US federal court accepted this lawsuit! "

Charlize said angrily, but soon started to report to Andy all the paid wear in 2006.

Attendance at the British Film Institute Awards Gala in London was paid $ 50,000 for wearing more than two Chopard jewellery items.

At the Oscars, he was also paid $ 200,000 for wearing Chopard jewelry. In the fall of 2006, Montblanc agreed to pay $ 250,000 to a charity, provided that Theron acted as a model in an advertisement for its silver necklace.

Theron also wore Cartier's jewellery to attend the Golden Globe Awards. Although she didn't collect any money, Theron received a Cartier ring worth $ 350,000, a bracelet worth $ 7,500, and a pair of value. The $ 8,000 earrings are thankful for her "a little bit of meaning" for serving the company.

Andy pinched the sun with a headache and rolled his eyes silently. These Hollywood stars are really profitable. However, these things belong to the hidden rules of the industry. Although everyone knows them, no one explores them. After all, This is a matter of mutual benefit.

As for why this Raymond Weil watchmaker only got into trouble after two years, Andy wanted to come to one of the time when Theron was still their spokesperson and did not want to stalemate the relationship. The other was to use it as an advertisement. Charlize is more eye-catching. The third is to say no and Theron said that he wanted blackmail. After all, this is a time of financial turmoil. Otherwise, two years have passed and what should have been done.

Regardless of whether Charlize is a loss or not, in this matter, Andy naturally wants to help his own woman, not his relatives. Besides, you can't win a lawsuit in the United States. It depends on who can afford it and whose money is more!

What's more, there was a huge loophole in the agreement that was signed at the beginning, which is why Charlize dared to pay for the Oscar and Golden Globe awards. She is not an idiot, but also has a private lawyer.

"Well, don't get angry, one small thing. Now that the federal court has accepted it, it's enough to respond, just a watch company, dragging it to death, not to mention the agreement is a bit rigorous, and then you have not joined the United States. If they ca n’t do it, let them go to South Africa to sue. After a while, I let the lawyers go home, and I spent money to support them for lawsuits, huh, let ’s play with them! ”

Charlize's attitude towards Andy was not too surprising. She knew the little man she chose, but whether it was a loss or a win, it was a very annoying thing for her.

As Andy becomes more and more successful, and with the addition of Little Laura, for the current emperor, she also pursues her career. A stable and plain private life is what she wants most.

"By the way, how is nb Universal's affairs going?" Charlize didn't want to continue to worry about upsets, and now that Andy was ready to take over, she just had to sit and watch the situation, and to be honest, there was a powerful man Helping her hold up the sky is undoubtedly the easiest thing for her character with choice difficulties.

"Everything is going well, but things will not be too simple. GE has always wanted to take advantage. I am waiting for an opportunity to teach them a lesson. They have no small opinions on the sale of the 3 billion common shares that I have in hand. Oh, after a while, they will know that it's just an appetizer. "Andy said with a smile.

"Well, nb Universal, it really makes people look forward to it." Charlize's big acquisition of Andy was also difficult to suppress. "When will you come back?"

Andy said apologetically: "Sorry dear, I'm going to Montana next time, and I will work behind closed doors to see if I can finish one or two novels. After all, I have too much debt. "Tracking" hasn't been written yet, only the first part of "Spy Shadow" is written, the follow-up of "House of Cards", and "Gossip Girl" ... oh, I think I have a headache. "

"Don't worry, how can it be so easy to create such a thing, readers can understand it, yes, when it comes to spying, I heard that Peak Entertainment has launched a shooting plan?" Charlize asked.

"Well, it will start filming this year. Next year, your" Superman "will be released in the summer, and then" Quick Rush 4 ", then" Spy Shadows ". Next year will be a high-yielding year for Peak Entertainment, all commercial. For a big movie, I'm going to let the summit and the Big Six come to a head-to-head battle. "Andy said confidently.

"It's the top five, giggles, you've completed the acquisition of nb Universal, and you are also a Hollywood crocodile." The emperor swept away the haze, feeling better, laughing and teasing.

"Well, it's really possible to make Global cheaper, but it doesn't matter. The original valuation of Peak Entertainment was raised a lot in this negotiation. It's not cheap Global, right. At night, my mother wanted to Little Laura makes a video connection, and you prepare. "Andy frowned slightly, then relieved, even if the peak is developing too fast, there is no way to compare it with Universal Pictures.

"Well, I know, okay, don't say, I'm still in the crew, damn, I was ruined when I received the call before, and it seems that I will delay shooting again today." Things, the tone became irritable again.

Andy can only calm down. To be honest, the emperor's temper is sometimes really stink. After hanging up the phone, Andy called his chief counsel in Los Angeles and called the emperor. After talking about the incident, let him directly contact the emperor. This time, Steve was involved in the theft of Theron villa.

After waiting for Oston to return home in the evening, Andy talked about the emperor. As a barrister, Oston naturally has the most say. After understanding the specific details with Steve of the lawyers, he Andy said.

"The best solution is reconciliation. Of course, this is after reconciling the other party with a deep understanding that their odds are not high, and even being dragged into a vortex by this lawsuit.

As far as you want them to go to South Africa to file a lawsuit, it is impossible. Now that the federal court has accepted it, it is to identify Charlize as an American. Do n’t think about it, especially the two facts of breach that the other party chose. This is very bad for Charlize, the other party is prepared.

This depends on whether the other party decides to go head-to-head. If the other party is not slack, then it may eventually need to return the endorsement fee of 3 million, but that is a long time later, if the other party can persist, take it slowly! "

After hearing Oston's judgment, Andy was slightly disappointed, but there was no way. In the face of strict American justice, he could only choose to play the rules within the framework. He did not have that ability and was not so stupid to obstruct justice. Fairness, this will not only be unsuccessful, but also cause trouble. Things that can be solved with money are not matters. The key is not to make the other party easily succeed. Whether it is spending money or time, since the other party has already done something, then look at Who can't stand it first?
