American Fortune Life

Chapter 175: Hollywood only values ​​interests (see full book)

Andy was drinking coffee like an old **** was there, and he didn't seem to care about the weird eyes of the three people watching him. He knew his active position. No matter which film company came in, he could only listen to his conditions. .

The success of "Harry Potter" has made many movie companies very jealous. The era of fan economy has arrived. The huge fan spending power has made many people interested in some potential IPs.

To be honest, Andy just does n’t have enough beautiful knives right now, otherwise, he can sleep on the banknotes with peace of mind as long as he swallows Marvel, but unfortunately, he ca n’t afford so much money now, although he can do so in the future. It is very feasible for some money to pass the bank to guarantee the merger and acquisition. However, Disney has long regarded Marvel and will never give Andy a chance. Another thing is the old Stan Lee. This old guy is famous Difficult.

Oops, it's a bit far away, so since the success of the "Lord of the Rings" series, "Pirates of the Caribbean" series, as well as "Spider-Man" and "Batman", especially the popularity of "Harry Potter", in Almost all in Hollywood's industry have reached a consensus. The future belongs to the world of series movies, and original movies will be overwhelmed by big IPs.

Do n’t think that the previous Hollywood did not understand the impact of the series of movies on original movies. They are all very clear, but all six are backed by big consortia, and they are funded by people on Wall Street. The big investment in big production is the result of the influx of hot money. Only capitalists don't care about art.

Hollywood is a big factory. What the market needs and what it likes, it will produce anything. In the past life, Andy watched Hollywood movies. He always saw that most Asians were starring in the foot basin. Rarely can I see Chinese and Chinese. Will choose some villains or supporting roles, I feel very hurting self-esteem.

The reason why the pedestal people are mixed in Hollywood, of course, there is a part of Sony Columbia ’s credit in it. After the pedestal people control, although the Emperor is operating, the big boss is the pedestal people. Naturally, there is a part of cultural output. See Watching Hollywood movies all appear to be pirated Tang knives held by Nima's hands, and the knife in the foot basin population will understand.

Of course, the most important reason is that the foot basin country has always been the back garden of Hollywood. The second largest ticket warehouse outside North America will naturally be more inclined to some foot basins in terms of actors and plots.

This is why after the dynasty became the world's second-largest ticket warehouse, Hollywood movie companies and celebrities kneeled in various tricks, saying that this is the market's choice!

The two best-selling novels in Andy's hands are so popular that they will naturally be sought after by the film company, which also shows how great the potential is. The box office alone can only be guaranteed by fans of the novel, especially with the popularity of the novel As the rate increases, their right to adapt will become more valuable.

Want to understand this, Andy, a black-bearded, patience, paranoid person with otaku attributes, how can they be anxious.

Robert Freeman, as an industry insider who has been a Paramount CEO in Hollywood since the bottom employees, will not understand the importance of a good IP? Don't joke, not even the two followers around him understood.

It's just that they are used to the writers who flicker, or the practice of spending millions of dollars to get film adaptation rights, and sometimes even only hundreds of thousands of dollars, those writers will be happy to sign a contract, I hope to be able to make a movie that will drive more physical books to buy.

Unfortunately, they encountered Andy who knew the value of the novel's copyright in his hands, and it was impossible to sell it cheaply, just like JK Rowling later regretted selling the copyright of Harry Potter. Finally, the film company compromised and gave her a share. After the box office was divided and she wrote "Fantastic Creature", she didn't sell it anymore. Instead, she chose to invest in the production of the film by way of copyright.

Therefore, no successful person in this world is a fool. If you meet such a person, then the other person definitely wants to treat you as a fool!

There was a strange silence in Andy's office. No one on either side spoke. To put it bluntly, everyone didn't know how to speak, because the conditions on both sides were too far away from what they thought.

Andy smiled and put down the coffee cup in his hand, looked at the time on the watch, coughed, broke the silence that lasted for several minutes, and said, "Unconsciously, it is noon, so you are guests from afar. At noon, I invite you to taste the food in New York. Let's put things to work first, how about it? "

Robert Freeman is not polite. Well, the Emperor does not know what kind of polite is. You invite him and he will really agree. He won't understand that you are just being polite.

Andy is not polite, but sincere. He wants to have a good chat with Robert Freeman. Being a professional manager with several bosses is definitely a painful thing, especially The two bosses are completely laymen, and what they want is to make a profit. Andy feels that he can convince Rob first and let him be optimistic about his presence in Peak Entertainment. If he can say something good at a critical moment, then Andy Dou can occupy A key step in Nest's plan is complete.

As for whether he can convince Rob, Andy can only be hehe. Rob is just a professional manager with that salary. The board of directors joins a shareholder who supports himself. Would you say he would be happy?

As for whether Rob sold the company's interests, it is even more non-existent. The conversion of the film and television adaptation rights of the two best-selling novels into beautiful knives is not a small figure. The registered capital of Summit Entertainment is only $ 100 million. Naturally, This shareholding, of course, requires the consent of the three shareholders who are still not bad.

The lunch at noon was more enjoyable and the atmosphere was better. Everyone was talking about insignificant digressions. The people brought by Rob also said some gossip of Hollywood stars, which is very interesting, and some things Andy It was also the first time I heard that, especially about Pete and Julie, made Andy even more hated by this star couple who has always been hostile to the heavens.

Andy then knew that the "Smith and Smith" was released at the peak. When the script was first released, Peter's male starring was set, and then Peter listed the list of actresses who wanted to partner. At first, it was Nicole. Kidman and Nicole also agreed, but later they did not participate in the show for some reason. Pete refused to continue to participate after knowing it, but then I do n’t know who said that Julie was moved. To participate in the performance, the monkey immediately signed the contract, then wiped out the sparks, wiped the fire, split the leg, gossip, divorce, and the big drama together.
