From Hollywood to Media Empire

Enter post-millennium Hollywood. A place full of opportunities, where independent films are still making inroads, Marvel is still on the rise, and Disney is not yet the dominant player. Beautiful Hollywood actresses are also young, and streaming media has not yet started to go crazy. It is also an era full of difficulties, and the dark side behind the bright Hollywood is also difficult to look at. Unofficial translation of 我,好萊塢的君王 by 颜可颜

Chapter 587

Time passed to the evening of July 3rd. At the Capet estate in Beverly Hills, the final quarter-final match of the South Africa World Cup ended with Spain joining the Netherlands, Uruguay, and Germany in the semi-finals.

Sitting on the sofa, Charles absentmindedly touched his chin. In three days' time, Spain would play Germany and the Netherlands would play Uruguay in the semi-finals.

The match between Spain and Germany was one he definitely couldn't miss!

At that moment, Britney Spears, dressed in a sexy camisole nightdress, walked over, "Is it over?"

Charles nodded, "Watching it on TV isn't as exciting as watching it live!"

"Then why not go to South Africa?" Britney Spears, who wasn't interested in soccer, handed a newspaper to Charles.

"Look, Paris Hilton was charged again in South Africa yesterday!"

Charles glanced over the newspaper. Paris Hilton was caught with marijuana at Mandela Bay Stadium while watching the Brazil vs. Netherlands match on July 2nd. After being arrested, Paris Hilton and a female companion appeared in court at 12:20 in the night, but fortunately, the judge dismissed her charges.

"I thought you didn't know her well. Why are you paying attention to her?" Charles was puzzled. Britney Spears had known him for several years but was never part of Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan's "Bad Girls" club.

"No, we're just casual friends. We ran into each other at a party recently and exchanged contact information," Britney Spears said as she snuggled into Charles' arms "She's too wild!"

"Ha, she's wild. The title of 'Heiress' isn't just for show," Charles chuckled, discarding the newspaper.

"Don't mingle with her too much to avoid bad influences. Right now, she's not richer than you!"

The Hilton family owns only a small percentage of the Hilton Hotel Group; with so many heirs, Paris Hilton doesn't get much of the assets.

"By the way, why not go to South Africa? I'll fly out tomorrow or the day after to watch the game," Charles said, while his hands moved to Britney's chest. The charm of the "Pop Princess" still lingered!

Britney shook her head, "I have some commercials to shoot, especially the Pepsi one which requires filming in Europe. I also have a performance at the Hollywood Bowl tomorrow night and a talk show appearance. I don't even have time for kids!"

"Pfft, time for kids?" Charles laughed, "It takes two or three months to make a kid, right?"

"Don't worry, with how healthy I am, it'll be easy for you to impregnate me!"

Britney laughed, stood up, swayed her slim waist, and straddled Charles, wrapping her arms around his neck, "Why waste time?"

"Mmm," Charles kissed her lips, "Not going to South Africa is fine too; it's winter there now with temperatures around 10°C or so!"

Britney Spears then slipped off her nightdress and let Charles kiss her chest, saying, "Which is why it's perfect for a winter getaway."

Blonde hair flying, Britney Spears quickly got into the groove with Charles...

...

The Republic of South Africa is located at the southernmost part of the African continent, flanked by the Indian and Atlantic Oceans. South Africa is unique in having three capitals: Pretoria (administrative), Cape Town (legislative), and Bloemfontein (judicial).

Charles's first stop was in Cape Town to watch the semi-final between the Netherlands and Uruguay. He also contacted Charlize Theron, who was also in Cape Town.

At the waterfront resort hotel in Cape Town's Victoria Harbor, Charlize Theron smiled as she helped Charles out of his coat, "How's the weather, nice right?"

"Yes, much cooler than Los Angeles!" Charles said, sitting down on the sofa.

"I told you, if you had come with me on the 2nd, you could've watched Germany play Argentina the next day," Charlize Theron said with a shrug. "Tomorrow night, the Netherlands will play Uruguay, and Cape Town Stadium isn't far from here. The day after tomorrow, Germany will play Spain in Durban!"

Charles looked at Charlize Theron. The reason he didn't come earlier was to stay with Britney. With a laugh, he replied, "A lot of Hollywood celebrities are fake fans. Do you even know soccer?"

Charlize Theron smiled and tapped Charles on the shoulder, "I'm South African! Supporting the World Cup here is normal, plus I'm a brand ambassador for South Africa!"

"Alright then, let's take a bath first. This year's World Cup has been quite interesting," said Charles, lifting Charlize Theron straight to the bathroom despite her surprised yelp.

In the bathtub, the warm water washed away Charles's fatigue. Gasping for breath, Charlize Theron lay exhausted against him, "Just got off the plane and you're already full of energy?"

Charles brushed her blonde hair and kissed her lips, "Who can resist the allure of South African diamonds?"

"Did you buy Spain to win like I told you?" he asked.

"I bought a million dollars' worth," Charlize Theron traced a finger across Charles's chest, "Are you sure about your bet? Germany is strong too!"

"Two years ago during the Euro Cup, remember? Spain was dominant," Charles smiled.

"Well, I've made quite a bit following your advice. Lululemon and Apple stocks are doing well. Should I hold on to them long-term?" Charlize Theron looked at Charles.

"Of course, there's still room for growth," Charles said. He was generous with his women but most of their assets were still in real estate, with less than half invested in the stock market.

Charlize Theron nodded but then her expression changed, "Charles, again?"
