Chapitre 365: Chapter 365: Alexandra Daddario
In North Miami, Charles Capet and his party arrived at the Hilton Diplomat Beach Resort in Hollywood after coming from Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport.
After arriving in Miami with Alexandra Daddario on a private plane, Charles and his group chose a beachfront vacation house.
"Charles!" Alexandra Daddario embraced Charles and kissed him as soon as she entered the house.
"Mhm," Charles, of course, didn't waste the beautiful woman's kindness and, holding her, headed towards the bedroom.
The next morning, the Atlantic waves carried moisture and pounded the beach. A few seagulls flew over the rooftops of the nearby docks, screeching loudly.
Florida's sunshine streamed through the curtains and onto the carpet. Charles, who had been up half the night, opened his eyes while lying in bed.
"Mmm, you're awake," Alexandra Daddario woke up, roused by Charles' arm-stretching movement.
Looking at Alexandra Daddario's blue eyes, Charles said, "Darling, these eyes of yours are really captivating."
Alexandra Daddario lowered her head, kissed Charles' chest, then looked up and asked, "What else about me attracts you?"
Charles' hand cupped her full chest and said, "This, of course. A 36, right?"
"It's 36E!" Alexandra Daddario confidently rubbed against Charles.
Charles nodded. She was quite voluptuous, even more so than Phyllis Jones, and it reminded Charles of the Japanese actress Haruka Ayase.
"By the way, Charles, do you have any advice for my acting career?" Alexandra Daddario was eager to hear Charles' opinion.
Charles smiled, "Throughout 2007, 775 films were released in the US. In North America,
29 movies grossed over 100 million dollars,
61 movies grossed over 50 million dollars,
82 movies grossed over 30 million dollars,
142 movies grossed over 10 million dollars,
and 243 films earned over 1 million dollars.
With the number of members registered with the Screen Actors Guild, you've seen how fierce the competition in Hollywood is!"
Alexandra Daddario looked at Charles and licked her lips. "Charles, what should I do then?"
"Don't worry. Just get more exposure to let the audience remember you. Your attributes aren't bad; there should be plenty of opportunities for you," Charles said, planting a kiss on her lips with a smile.
"Haven't you got me? Someday you could become as big as Megan Fox!"
As for Alexandra Daddario's acting skills, it was best if she just stuck to being eye candy.
"Got it!" Alexandra Daddario's eyes curved into a smile and she leaned in to kiss Charles.
Soon, Alexandra Daddario slid under the covers, making Charles feel an electric thrill.
...
To the southwest of Hollywood, in Miami Gardens, there was the home field of the Miami Dolphins, the Dolphin Stadium.
"There's quite a bit of land around Dolphin Stadium, all owned by the club. It can be developed. But Dolphin Stadium was built in the 70s, so it's a bit old," in the afternoon, a consultant from CSE accompanied Charles to view the Dolphin Stadium.
The stadium was outdated, and the team's performance was poor. However, the location was excellent, and Miami's Latin flair always attracted lots of tourists.
Dolphin Stadium had also hosted several Super Bowl games. Who could resist the allure of the hot and spicy bikini-clad cheerleaders?
"Maybe after acquiring it, we can either renovate it or build a new multi-functional sports complex," Charles liked the idea of an entertainment complex, which could better tap into the market value.
"There hasn't been a team acquisition in North America exceeding 1 billion dollars. CSE's offering price is definitely a new record," the acquisition consultant was amazed when he learned that Charles was willing to spend 1 billion dollars to acquire the Miami Dolphins.
"Let's meet and talk with Wayne Huizenga tonight," Charles wasn't too worried. Although Stephen Ross was wealthy, he didn't have enough cash to beat Charles' offer of a billion dollars.
In the evening, Wayne Huizenga welcomed Charles at his estate in West Palm Beach. As a former Blockbuster shareholder, Wayne Huizenga was quite familiar with Charles.
"Charles, how do you find Miami?" Wayne Huizenga asked while enjoying wine together in the estate's garden.
"It's warmer than Los Angeles, no wonder it draws countless wealthy people to settle here," Palm Beach was indeed one of the most famous wealthy enclaves in the US.
Wayne Huizenga nodded, "Yes, do you remember Ike Perlmutter?"
"Ike Perlmutter?" Charles paused and then nodded, "Of course, I remember. I acquired Marvel Entertainment from him, and now the company's value has increased more than tenfold. Next month, Marvel Studios will release its second movie, Thor. I take Marvel very seriously."
Charles laughed as he spoke. One had to wonder if Ike Perlmutter regretted it now.
"Ike Perlmutter has a villa in Palm Beach Gardens. We met at a charity gala before and became friends," Wayne Huizenga said with a smile.
Charles silently raised an eyebrow. Wayne Huizenga mentioning Ike Perlmutter now was clearly implying that the Miami Dolphins, like Marvel, had huge potential.
"A billion dollars," Charles stated a figure.
Wayne Huizenga shook his head, "The land around Dolphin Stadium in Miami Gardens can be redeveloped."
"A billion dollars, in cash!" After contemplating for a while, Charles added, seeing Wayne Huizenga's conflicted expression, he didn't want to waste time.
"Stephen Ross offered over a billion," Wayne Huizenga believed Charles could easily find out this price. However, Charles offering cash was quite enticing.
Charles smiled, "A billion dollars. I want the Miami Dolphins, Dolphin Stadium, and the surrounding land. I don't believe anyone would offer more than a billion in cash to acquire the Miami Dolphins and Dolphin Stadium!
Wayne, you know how much can be done with a billion dollars in cash these days," Charles stood up and patted Wayne Huizenga's shoulder.
"Think it over. A billion dollars in cash is my bottom line. Can Stephen Ross' installment payments match my cash offer?"
The NFL season started in September. Charles had time to wait. Wayne Huizenga could continue seeking buyers for appraisal.
Cash is king, especially in the current global financial crisis, emphasizing the importance of liquidity.
Palm Beach was indeed a great place. Charles should consider owning a villa here too!
