Ace Hollywood

"Daniel returned to Los Angeles before, apparently to supervise "The House Collapses in Love". After the excellent performance of "Ghost Omen" in major ticket positions in Europe and Asia, "The House Collapses in Love" successfully exceeded 100 million this week. , dd Films has achieved good results in many works in recent years. Although dd Films is not dominant in size and number of productions among major Hollywood studios, it is obvious that at present, dd The film industry continues the 'undefeated' tradition of its boss, Daniel Sandler. (Baidu search to force literature network to update the fastest and most stable) It is reported that dd film industry has already prepared a number of projects in Sundance International The small-budget horror film "Chainsaw", which has attracted much attention at the film festival, avoided the summer period and should be released in September and October in the second half of the year. Previously, the media reported that dd Pictures is also participating in the competition for Dan Brown's best-selling book. The film adaptation rights of "The Da Vinci Code". In addition, a new work called "the theme is quite special" is also in preparation..."

Many people are researching this report from the Washington Post.

Many people don't see "Chainsaw". Although it premiered at the Sundance International Film Festival, many people have not seen it, and even those who have seen it have no way of predicting it. The results of the small production will be achieved. Everyone's attention is still focused on "The Da Vinci Code" and other new works. The love comedy "House Collapses With Love" focuses on online dating, which obviously touched the fans' point, and its popularity can be used as evidence. Novel themes can boost the box office, which can be said to benefit from the advantages of new themes in social promotion. Generally speaking, new topics get more attention on social media.

Since the number of users of f2f has increased rapidly, it has attracted much attention. Social media has attracted more and more attention, from all walks of life, are eager to pay attention to the possible impact of this social change.

Since the explosion of "Greek Wedding", Hollywood can be said to have enjoyed the first benefits of the social media era, and then extended to other industries, even including traditional paper media that belong to the media industry.

The Washington Post has basically reached a cooperation agreement with mb, and it can be said that it has become the first newspaper in the traditional paper media to extend an olive branch to the social network. The win-win model explored by both sides is Bradley and Javier. All have won industry reputation.

In addition to paying attention to the business of dd Pictures, higher-level people are more concerned about what dd Pictures wants to express, or what Daniel wants to do with it.

It is impossible for The Post to publish the plans of dd Pictures inexplicably, it is only possible that Daniel is behind it.

"Does he want to sell dd Pictures? Or to make it bigger?"

Harvey and Bob. The brothers have of course been keeping an eye on dd and Daniel.

Indeed, dd Pictures has brought itself to the forefront, and the only possibility is to push up its own value. An independent studio with a "never failure", a clear development plan, and multiple potential projects in hand is indeed right. It is attractive to investors, not to mention that there is a superstar who has won the Oscar three times and top-level salary treatment behind DD Films.

Now referring to the 20 million club. It has gradually begun to not put Daniel in. His bidding price in "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" has been passed out, plus the achievements of dd Pictures. A single income of 20 million is no longer a good description of the compensation he can get. In addition, the media are all chasing gimmicks. Consider the packaging contracts of "The Bourne 2 and 3", the remuneration, share and investment of the "Pirates" series. There are already 50 million club members. Of course, candidates It's not just him. Tom Cruise and Tom Hanks were also included in the candidate list because of income sharing, and Daniel had clearly obtained this number in "Greek Wedding", "Pirates of the Caribbean" and "The Bourne 1". So it's a confirmed candidate. Cruise can also be included because of the "Mission Impossible" series. As for Tom Hanks, his income in "Forrest Gump" and "Saving Private Ryan" should also exceed this number.

With all this in mind, it's no surprise that Harvey suspects that Daniel wants to sell dd Pictures.

Based on the current revenue of dd film industry, the valuation of 400 million to 600 million is guaranteed. After all, there is only one film of "Greek Wedding", and now it has broadcast rights on DVD sales, planes, long-distance buses, trains, etc. every year. , as well as peripheral sales, etc., still grabbing millions of income for dd Pictures.

Not to mention the direct share of benefits that "Hotel Rwanda", "Ghost Omen" and "Love Until the House Collapses" can bring.

If Daniel adds fire and stirs, it will not be a problem for the valuation of dd Pictures to rise by 30%.

Bob Weinstein disagrees with Harvey's speculation.

"Although everyone in the dd film industry attributes it to Daniel Sandler, David and his right to speak in the dd film industry should be on a par. Of course, I refer to the dd headquarters. Selling this kind of behavior may not necessarily With David's approval, why would he sell dd when the time is good?"

"You mean he wants to be big?"

"It's obvious now that Robert's people want to contain him. So far, he has not responded positively to the repeated questions. It is very likely that he wants to make a transformation. Since Daniel invested in movies, he has never lost. Compared with filming It’s so hard work, although the film investment is not as glamorous as the stage, the income is much higher.”

Hearing what Bob said, Harvey frowned and thought for a while. He and Daniel had been dealing with each other for many years, and he knew a thing or two about Daniel's personality.

"Daniel may not admit defeat so easily. Over the years, he has encountered a lot of things, but when did he see him suffer? Even if he was forced to leave Hollywood temporarily by Sean Pan, he will make up for it now. Is he back? If he was still working in Hollywood, it would not have been possible for him to delay it for so long. This delay, although the effect of Robert and the others was still there, they had to be discounted. It is even more coincidental that this time they competed with him for the best actor. It's Sean Pan, the two are old enemies, Sean's reputation has always been bad, and this has eased him a bit."

The two brothers discussed for a long time, but in the end they didn't know what Daniel's purpose was.

Of course, when they want to come, as long as they keep watching, they can always see what Daniel's purpose is.

But this is obviously not the case. Following the exposure of Google's plan this year, mb's plan has also been proposed recently. Although it has not been directly confirmed by executives such as Javier, according to Wall Street's news, this should be a certainty.

The industry generally believes that Google's may be the most important reason for mb. As a joint stock company of mb, once Google goes public, the operation of mb will be exposed to the public. In this way, it is better to go public and raise funds to start a drastic development.

Although the Weinstein brothers have been paying attention to the relationship between MB and Daniel, they have no way of thinking about the inner connection between these two things. Even if the news is put in front of them, they cannot see the purpose of Daniel.

...

When he heard the news, Daniel was looking at the box office report of "House Collapse", and was stunned when he heard the news.

Larry Page came to visit without an appointment.

In fact, Daniel has been preparing to communicate with Page, but after careful consideration, he has never been able to make the trip. This time he ran to prepare, the news of mb's listing leaked from Wall Street, and Google, as the holder of 30% of mb's shares, of course will be very concerned. Javier hasn't understood the whole situation yet, and he can't make it clear to Page. In this case, it's not surprising that Page would come to him.

After finishing his clothes, Daniel greeted him.

The assistant offered a cup of green tea, a cup of coffee, and also left the office.

Page glanced at Daniel's green tea, which was brewed with water, which is not what Westerners are used to.

Before he came, what Page wanted to ask most was of course the details of Plutos Investment Company. He originally thought that this was Daniel's own company, which was only registered in the Cayman Islands, which was convenient for confidentiality and tax exemption. However, the investment in dd film industry, the investment in mb, and f2f are still burning money intensively, and Plutos's financial strength shocked him.

If there is only one Daniel behind this, where did he get so much money?

Daniel's salary and share are indeed very high, but that is only compared to other Hollywood stars. It is not enough to burn money in Silicon Valley. Even if it is rumored that Daniel is good at financial investment, Raymond does have the means and vision, but Page does not believe that he wants to make such a large amount of money in a short period of time.

Then there must be other forces behind Plutos.

Whether it was Daniel's will or the will of other forces behind Plutos to push mb to go public this time, Page wanted to find out.

Daniel paused in his heart when he heard Page's bewildering temptation. He did not expect that Page had misunderstood the power behind Plutos-indeed, who could have imagined that Daniel Sandler, a defender of peace who was full of anti-war, also sent a message. A huge war fortune?

There was a quick turn in my mind, this is a good opportunity to repair the relationship with Page.

"...Well~www.readwn.com~ Plutos does believe that Google's listing will bring some unpredictable effects to mb. This is the most important reason why Plutos is determined to promote mb's listing in advance. Of course, the company There also seems to be some new investment plans that may also be used to generate cash.”

In his tone, Daniel seemed to emphasize that this was the company's decision, and as for the investment plan, he wasn't too sure about it - of course, this was clearly misleading Page.

In view of the management mechanism of mb, there is no way for Google to prevent mb from listing. In addition, considering the company's development, Google may not really want to prevent it. It's just that Daniel is always doing things in secret, which is always a very uncomfortable thing for Google, not to mention, the shares in mb are already a very important part of Google's rights and interests, it is impossible for Larry Page to not care. of.

Two people sat down, from Google's, to the listing of mb, to the development of f2f, the future of social media... There are many things, and they talked for an entire afternoon. (To be continued) WWW.GEILIWX.COM happy reading every day
