Chapter 163: Chapter 157: Los Angeles

The earliest history of Bristane Entertainment can be traced back to the Brillstein Company, founded in 1969, which founder Bernie Brillstein named after himself.

The founder had worked at William Morris Agency (WMA), where he was the first-generation great disciple of the legendary mailroom.

Later, he went independent and established Bristane Entertainment, starting with television programs.

For instance, by trading second-tier presenters and daytime programs, they acquired clients. At the same time, they established contacts with various television stations to sell daytime programming.

In '84, Brillstein met Brad Grey, now seated in front of Valentine, in San Francisco; the latter had previously worked as an assistant to Harvey Weinstein.

At 27, Grey, boasting his rich network of artistic contacts, successfully pitched himself to Brillstein.

Then, the new Bristane Entertainment company (BEP) was formed, he became a partner and took charge of the television program business.
