Legendary Hollywood Director

Has the background frame of the whole play been conceived?

Lehman came to the company early in the morning and went to the office area of ​​the screenwriting department to see that the screenwriters were discussing the plot and roles of The Walking Dead, and asked curiously.

Today's screenwriting department has 12 regular employees, but the collection of all inspirations usually only hangs the name of one person, that is their head Jonathan.

This is the unspoken rule of the screenwriting profession.

The background is confirmed. Because the story of New York Row is to be connected, after the cataclysm, the infected and mutated zombies will slowly decay like corpses. The vision is weak, the hearing is weak, and the desire for the smell of blood is enhanced. , Usually slow in action, when encountering blood, or loud noises, there will be riots, the running speed will be two-thirds of the running speed of normal people, and it is very easy to cause corpses... Zombies are very tenacious. , it is very difficult to die without a headshot or head off, destroying the nerve center.

Is the zombie setting very detailed? Lehmann thought to himself. He not only retained some of the zombie introductions in New York Row, but also added some new features on this basis, but the more he listened, the more he felt like A certain part of the game Seven Days Killing is all about the survivors fighting for survival, while emphasizing the exploration of the open world...

Let's write it like this, I think it's very good. Lyman patted Jonathan's shoulder with satisfaction.

We will come up with the script for the first season as soon as possible. Jonathan rubbed his red eyes from staying up late, and said seriously: It will take about a week or so.

Well, don't worry.

Of course, that's what Lehmann said. If he can't come up with a script for a week, he will come over and continue to urge.

After returning to the office, Lyman sat down again to deal with the documents and reports in his hands.

These days, WB TV has been splitting the harvest with Firefly Pictures, and the two have frequent financial exchanges.

But WB TV always finds an excuse to delay the payment, so be stingy. If it wasn't for knowing that they didn't dare to do anything, just mobilizing funds to make up for some of the previous vacancies, Lehman would want to bring the accounting team to the door to ask for money.

The landlord's life is not easy. The New York Tour has not been painted yet, so there is no way to talk about the income. Now the entire company is supported by the profits of Prison Break - the year is closed, and the salary and year-end bonus must be paid. Unpaid employees is not a wonderful thing.

After a while, when it was almost noon, another call was transferred to the front desk.

But it was Paul Anderson who explained things properly and brought people over.

...two o'clock in the afternoon, Hollywood Country Club...

hang up the phone.

Lyman stretched.

Unexpectedly, Paul Anderson's execution was so fast, and the day when the two met and interviewed seemed to be just yesterday.

If it hadn't been torn off a few pages from the calendar, I would have doubted that this product had never left the United States - but I didn't think that a project with a very profitable prospect would be very attractive to those production companies.

...

Hollywood Country Club doesn't have a very low name, but all those who can enter are the real powers of the Los Angeles film and television industry.

This kind of club is very popular in the United States, and it is also the best place to attract people.

Seeing that it was almost time, Lehmann took the car half an hour earlier.

Go inside, grab a newspaper in the lounge and read it.

Lehmann thought he was the first to come.

Unexpectedly, in the golf course next to it, Paul Anderson and several leaders have been playing for a while.

Hello, Mr. Ryman.

...

A few people said hello.

I saw three people, one was about thirty years old, dressed meticulously, looked very strict and formal; one had a warm smile on his face, his eyes kept looking at it, and the other was a little cold, as if he didn't believe it?

Haha, these days, it is generally a fool who thinks about seeking cooperation after he has not reduced the risk.

But it's all here, so you have to find out what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd.

Take a seat for a chat.

Paul Anderson thought about opening the topic, and asked deliberately, Mr. Lehman, how much did Row to New York have at the box office? Has it broken 400 million?

Lehman pretended to be relaxed and replied: If it's North America, it's not so fast, but if it's a global box office, it's almost 540 million US dollars.

As New York Tour shines in North America, the promotion work in charge of Europa Pictures does not know how much help it has played - those theaters have been stimulated, and the number of films and screenings given are extremely generous. .

Hearing this box office data, even everyone present here are film and television bosses, and they can't help but feel envy and admiration in their hearts. You must know that their net profit for a year is the income that this big-selling work can bring.

Paul Anderson responded very politely: Overseas, it's only been released for less than ten days, and the box office is about to break 200 million. It's amazing.

Hollywood's current box office market is rising every year, and according to Lehman's first arrival, it increased by almost 30%.

In the past, it was not easy for the market to produce a movie that broke 200 million. Now, if it does not break 300 million, it is embarrassing to compete for the annual list.

In just a few years, the film and television market has become more and more prosperous, and it is enough to imagine the speed of economic development in the United States in recent years.

Anyway, the more money people have in their hands, the more urgent the senses will be to satisfy their spiritual needs. The so-called Shengshi Entertainment, the future market will only get better and better.

This is also why many bigwigs choose to write down the film and television industry.

If nothing else, Guzman, Jobs and others have first-class vision and action.

Lehman said humbly: The main reason is that the content theme of New York Row has been accepted by the audience, just like the adventure fever caused by the previous Indiana Jones. However, although the market is heating up, how to protect your interests is also a problem needs to be considered.”

This seems to be random, but it reminds people of cooperative development.

Sure enough, after laying the groundwork, Lehman then chatted about the production plan of the American drama The Walking Dead, and from time to time revealed how much Firefly Pictures earned on the Prison Break project.

The atmosphere of the chat was very hot. These guys were all intent on cooperating to make quick money. They were afraid that Lehmann had put forward some excessive conditions.

Seeing Lehman's attitude now is fairly friendly and is treated more equally.

Then the exchange of interests is easy to handle.

I just got in touch, so naturally it can’t be said to be a direct determination. How much to invest and how to allocate it should be discussed in detail.

But the tone of the cooperation was laid, and Lehman was not afraid of what he would suffer.

Again, the plate of the TV series is still a bit worse than the movie.
