Banshikova lowered her head in silence again. She and her two daughters really don't have much contact on weekdays.Because the eldest daughter once said that the money was not enough, she found an opportunity to call her two daughters back every month when she got her daily necessities, and then hung up the phone to ask them if they had received the money.
Other than that, neither daughter had contacted her.
Banshikova also understands.
After all... the two daughters must feel that she is like this, which embarrasses them.
Being a human being in two lives, Simon has experienced too many things in the world. After a little guessing, he probably understood, and quickly said: "Galina and Eva don't call you more on weekdays. This is too much. In this way, I Sent them to pick coffee beans in Africa, you think..."
Before Simon finished speaking, Banshikova shook her head quickly, with a look of panic on her face: "No, sir, yes, it's me, you, you can punish me."
Simon was a little speechless.
Two heartless daughters, and a mother who loves her deeply.
Seeing that the woman in his arms was still waiting for his answer, Simon smiled and said, "Okay, there will be no punishment. Then, if you kiss me, I can promise you one thing."
Banshikova was puzzled.
Simon said flatly: "Kiss me, I will let Galina and Eva leave Ukraine, you can arrange them to go to school in a place where I can't find them, and then live their own lives, how about it?"
Banshikova's eyes lit up immediately, and she became shy again when she saw the man tilting his head slightly and waiting.
However, she didn't hesitate, and quickly moved closer, her slightly cool lips imprinted on the man's face, and after parting, she looked at Simon expectantly.
Simon turned the other side of his face: "One next, and one more."
Banshikova paused, then leaned over and kissed again.
Simon was very satisfied: "Okay, Galina and Eva are free, but, you will be mine from now on, obediently be my maid, and don't hide from me anymore, or I will return."
The woman shook her head quickly: "No, I promise."
"Well," Simon nodded, refocusing his attention on the information in front of him, and said: "I haven't said it just now, it smells so good on my body, what kind of perfume?"
Banshikova was still a little worried. Hearing the man's question, she quickly pulled herself together, but she was stuck.
On weekdays, these are distributed by Shurshikina to them. She only uses some occasionally, because her daughters have privately said that they like them, and most of them are secretly kept and brought back to Ukraine.
Therefore, do not understand at all.
Seeing that she couldn't answer the man's question, Banshikova became worried again, afraid that because of these, he would go back on his promise just now, and in the end she was a little teary.
Seeing that the woman didn't answer, Simon even had a pitiful appearance of crying. He smiled and leaned over to comfort her and kissed her on the lips. The cat-like woman went to the bedroom to rest.
Chapter 1260 Not a good person
Natalia Banshikova woke up very early and wanted to get out of bed to do housework, and it would be better if she could personally participate in preparing breakfast for the man, but because she was in someone's arms, she dared not move .
Thinking of the man's promise last night, and the tenderness that followed, I feel warm both physically and mentally.
six o'clock.
The alarm rang, and Simon opened his eyes. On the other side, Ivana, who was called later last night, turned on the light. Feeling the movement of the woman in her arms, she lowered her head and looked at it. Seeing Banshikova's eyelashes trembling, she leaned closer with a smile. , kissed the woman's face, and said: "Don't pretend to be sleeping, get up and help me get dressed."
Banshikova just opened her eyes, her face was already flushed.
Finally patted somewhere on the woman, Simon actually got out of bed and went to the bathroom first.
The two women on the bed looked at each other and hurriedly dressed themselves. However, Ivana helped the man prepare the clothes first, and Banshikova couldn't grab them, so she could only help a little, accompanied by some Guilty and apprehensive, feeling that I am useless, and wondering if the man still remembers the promise he made last night.The reason why she felt so insecure was because of her past life. Her former husband was a rascal, and his words never counted.
Simon put on the sportswear for going to the gym. Before leaving, he saw Banshikova and looked at him eagerly, and squeezed the woman's chin with a smile: "You can contact me about that matter yourself, just tell me what I said."
Banshikova nodded quickly.
After the man left, the two women went to wash themselves.
Simon had just arrived downstairs, and Yulia Shursikina, who had already woken up, was waiting in the gym, and said one more thing, Janet was already online.
Then he showed Simon a picture of today.
It was the gossip tabloid that got News Corporation involved in the wiretapping scandal in the previous life. On the cover was a striking photo of Simon dancing with Princess Diana.
Simon just took a look and understood why Janet wanted to talk to himself at this time.
As for the gossip and photos about Simon and Concubine Diana, of course it was Simon who asked people to release them on his own initiative. Otherwise, it is impossible for anyone to secretly take pictures of Simon's private apartment.For this reason, Murdoch still owes Simon a small favor, such a hot gossip, let him do it, and today's sales will definitely increase greatly.
Janet really came to 'invoke the teacher'.
It's just that Simon was surprised not only by some gossip that had spread since yesterday afternoon, but also that Concubine Diana actually called the Manor at Cape Dumey, saying that Simon was crazy about her, and that she also thought a certain man was good. Ask Janet if she can give her her husband.
After listening to Janet's narration, Simon felt speechless.
This woman is too tiger.
However, it's not surprising. Concubine Dai has related deeds in her memory. She fell in love with a married man and made a lot of phone calls to the man's house one day, which made his wife so angry that she had a heart attack.
Thinking of this gossip, Simon suddenly thought of the two women who played golf together a few days ago.
It's really the same.
It's a pity that Princess Diana's move didn't even break her defenses for Janet. She pretended to ask her guilt, and the woman immediately showed her true colors. How would it feel to ask Simon curiously about the princess?
How did Simon know what to do?
Not interested either.
While jogging on the treadmill, Simon chatted with Janet in various ways, until the woman over there quickly said that she was going to sleep, and predicted that a certain princess would not let it go, and she would recharge her energy and prepare for battle.
After exercising, Simon showered, ate breakfast, and set off early to fly back to New York.
Not long after Simon left, Concubine Dai came over angrily. A certain guy was so hateful that he even posted the video of her dancing with him yesterday on the tabloids.
Now, no matter how you explain it, it is impossible for the outside world to believe it.
Finding that the man had left, Concubine Dai could only return in embarrassment, very annoyed, so regardless of the time difference, she made the call to Los Angeles again.
It's a pity that Janet didn't answer at all this time. Even though Concubine Diana put up her airs and said that she had something very important to do and had to ask the maid who answered the phone to wake up her mistress, she didn't succeed. In the end, the other side even took the initiative to hang up Dropped the phone, which made Concubine Dai even more confused. When she was hung up on the initiative, she was still a lowly waitress.
That's abominable!
The Simon Westeros family are not good people!
House in Kensington Gardens.
Concubine Diana's sudden visit after the man left shocked the women here. After all, they were not Simon, and in England, the royal family's authority is still very strong, but fortunately, the other party did not break in.
When Concubine Dai left, Shurshikina also took the initiative to contact the girl A next to Simon to talk about it.
So at 10 o'clock, I had already contacted Shurshikina and Bessonoskova in Ukraine in advance, and got advice from Shurshikina. Switzerland is a good place to study abroad. Class Shikova called her eldest daughter's cell phone.
Because counting time.
The difference between Britain and Ukraine is two hours. Although I don't know what my daughters are doing every day, but it's lunch time over there, so they must be free to answer the phone.
Another explanation.
However, Banshikova was a little surprised. The two girls were not as happy as her at all. The eldest daughter directly said that she didn't want to study abroad because she didn't know anything at all. The younger daughter next to her seemed to be planning something. After learning that they had left, there would be no servants and daily necessities in the current residence, and they could only be supported by their mother, and the two girls were even more reluctant.
In the end, Galina was even a little angry, and asked why it wasn't her mother who left, but the two sisters stayed?
Banshikova was a little confused.
Of course she would like to leave if she could.
It's just that the crux of the problem doesn't seem to be this.
In Banshikova's philosophy, it is correct for her two daughters to leave and live a new life.After all, although she doesn't have much knowledge and is not very smart, she knows that staying with a man like this won't last long.
Now, what kind of situation is this?
Holding the microphone in a daze, Banshikova seemed to say something else when the younger daughter was next to her. Then, the elder daughter's attitude became firm, and she left after saying that she was going to leave, so they didn't want to stay. hang up the phone.
Shurshikina finished arranging things in the villa and came to the living room on the first floor where Banshikova was calling. She saw her sitting on the sofa blankly, frowning slightly, but she still asked softly: "Nata, what's the matter?" gone?"
Seeing that it was Shurshikina, Banshikova straightened up quickly.
The current Shurshikina is no longer the weak woman who was confused and melancholy because she couldn't see the future. She leads more than half of the Wei family servant team in the UK. It would be strange to eat it.Even for the sake of her daughter, she has been working hard to maintain her status.
Although there are still fairies who want to challenge her, at least with Banshikova, Shurshikina is still very authoritative.
Banshikova thought for a while, and confessed to her what happened just now. After she finished speaking, she hesitated again, and whispered: "I think, Yulia, I mean, can you... let me leave , Galina and Eva stay?"
Since it is the wish of the daughters, anyway, they can live well with men. Banshikova, who has no opinions, unconsciously thinks that the idea of the two children seems to be good.
Shurshikina frowned slightly again and said, "Didn't you say that this is Simon's decision?"
Banshikova nodded quickly, then reacted, and said again: "I mean, I am willing to leave."
Shulshikina ignored Banshikova's excuse and said, "Since it's Simon's decision, there's no room for the two of them to object. Well, go and watch them clean. I and Reeve Ni said."
Banshikova wanted to get up subconsciously and obediently, but paused for a while, but didn't move.
Just now... She felt very deeply about the attitude of the two daughters.
Since the daughters are so unwilling, even...even if they maintain the status quo, it's not intentional.In case...the two children don't hate her mother to death.
Thinking of this, Banshikova said weakly again: "Yulia, why don't you do nothing, is that okay?"
Seeing that this woman really had no ideas of her own, Shurshikina didn't care, it would be best to have more women like this around her, and said, "I will report to my husband, so let's do it for now."
Banshikova was worried again.
That man, he must have had a hard time letting go. Now, he has made a promise not to want him, will he be angry?
After Shurshikina finished speaking, she saw that Banshikova was worried about gains and losses again, which made her see a little shadow of herself at first, the same cowardice and no assertiveness, so she drove people away again: "Go, you Go watch them clean, don't stay here."
Banshikova didn't say anything this time, and got up obediently.
……
Simon returned to New York, and it was still Friday morning on the east coast of the United States.
After landing, the first thing to pay attention to is the North American box office situation in the first week of the Thanksgiving schedule that just passed.
I have to say that for the box office week from November 11th to November 14th, the relevant data will inevitably be emotional for those who pay a little attention to the box office inside and outside Hollywood.
Still have to start from the beginning.
Released on September 9, with the gimmick of the first pseudo-documentary film and the excellent reputation of the film, in September’s unpopular schedule, it won a box office of 26 million US dollars in the first seven days, breaking Hollywood’s September box office record in one fell swoop. At the same time, it also created a Hollywood horror film opening record.
And then.
On October 10st, similar to the stage summary of the Conjuring movie universe like the DC movie universe Super Bat War, it also relied on innovative plots and phenomenal word-of-mouth, and broke through the first week record of Hollywood horror movies in a short period of time. In the first week and seven days, it got a box office of 31 million US dollars.
Followed by.
From November 11th to November 14th, it was supposed to be the popular Thanksgiving schedule. As a result, due to the continuous release of , and three films, plus the past week and the remaining power, the result is that this week's box office list is No. .11, the same excellent overall media score of 20 points, a large-scale opening screen of 1 screens, and a seven-day box office in the first week, followed by 8.7 million US dollars.
Although it has reached the average level of 1 U.S. dollars, the investment of 9000 million U.S. dollars far exceeds the cost of the film and television, and the reputation is not bad. The box office in the first week did not even reach 4000 million U.S. dollars. Against the background of the horror movies sold, it is natural to feel emotional.
Of course, everyone understands that the reason is very simple, the schedule is too crowded.
Let's talk about the other films on this week's list.
No.2 was unexpected, starring Adam Sandler, with 2573 opening screens, and also with a media score of 8.3 points, the film unexpectedly won a box office of 2946 million US dollars in the first seven days of the week.
It also reached the level of over [-] per house.
Moreover, the production cost of the film is only 1800 million U.S. dollars. According to the ladder sharing rules, only the first week's box office of 2946 million U.S. dollars has already allowed Daenerys Entertainment to recover the cost, so it can be regarded as a group of small dark horses in the Thanksgiving file.
Fox ranked No.3.
The same good 7.9 points media score, 3183 opening screens, and the box office of 2465 million US dollars in the first week, which is the lowest opening score of the three new films.
According to industry analysis, it can only be said that the audience no longer has the initial passion for the series.
Considering the film's high production cost of US$7500 million, the first week's US$2465 million, and an estimated local box office of US$5000 million to US$7000 million, it must be a failure. Fox can only expect overseas and follow-up channels to recover the cost.
In any case, the three new films occupy the top three places on the list, and they have not been squeezed out by the old films in the past, which shows that the quality of the three new films this time is not too bad.
However, compared to the two consecutive blockbuster horror films in September and October, the box office performance of the three new films can only be described as unsatisfactory. This has also made many Hollywood studio executives start to reflect. It's not that it shouldn't be so crowded, perhaps, it's time to pay more attention to the unpopular schedule that I didn't pay much attention to in the past.
These people are actually right.
However, it is only half right.
Hollywood has never lacked dark horses at the box office picked out by unpopular schedules, but the more important point is that these dark horses themselves have the potential to become dark horses.If it's a mediocre film, it's unlikely to shine, no matter what the date.
After the top three three new films, it occupies the No.4 position.
In the third week of its release, under the impact of three new films, the box office fell by as much as 51%, completely hopeless for 1786 million. In the third week, it earned 1 million US dollars, and the cumulative box office reached 1829 million US dollars. It depends on how high it can reach in the future. The overall market situation, however, with a production cost of 5000 million US dollars and a publicity investment of 2500 million US dollars, it is more than enough to recover and realize profits only by relying on the local market. Overseas and subsequent returns are considered net income.
Sony spent $1 million to barely get a No.5.
This is also the worst movie on the top five list. After the first week of 2541 million US dollars, the second week's decline also reached 49%, which seems to be a bit stronger, but any Sony executive probably can't laugh. The next week earned $1295 million, and the cumulative box office was $3836 million, which can only be a result that made Sony want to cry.
