As a child who was influenced by Ultraman, Nobuyuki Idei, like most Japanese, always prefers monster movies. "Jurassic Park" is his favorite novel in the United States, which simply satisfies him. For all the fantasies of monster movies, this is why he was the most sincere of the seven companies that wanted to win "Jurassic Park".

It's a pity that Adam didn't take him seriously, because in Adam's world, one is that he is Japanese, so he is congenitally deficient, and the other is that in Hollywood, even though he has a wealthy Sony behind him, he doesn't understand the rules. Therefore, there has not been much development, and it is pure waste for him.

Nobuyuki Idei was still a little worried about this. When he knew that the right to adapt this novel had been won by a little-known small company, he had the same idea as other Hollywood companies—this is another doomed film. bad movie.He even thought that if the adaptation fails, he can get the right to adapt it at a low price, and then wait until the influence of the bad movie is removed, and remake it a few years later. With the super high sales of the novel, he can definitely make a difference .

Then I didn’t expect that New Line would come back from a desperate situation, which really caught everyone’s eyes, and the new line’s movie schedule did not avoid their idea of ​​Sony Columbia Pictures’ movies, and directly hit several blockbuster movies. People don't know what to say.

Leaving aside Stallone, who is still immature, the love movie between the red-hot Tom Hanks and American sweet girl Meg Ryan can be said to be a box office bomb, followed closely by FireWire The theme of sniping and the investment are all A-level movies, which can be described as an ambush from all sides, but in the eyes of New Line, it seems that it has no impact, and it is still in the middle, and it was announced at the Super Bowl. Said that the possibility of changing the schedule has been eliminated.So the other party does not change, Sony changes?

How can it be!Even if Sony considers that "Jurassic Park" may be a big hit, where should it be changed?But he tried his best to break out once in 1993. For a small company, should the schedule be?That would make the Hollywood group look down on them even more, so they gritted their teeth and tried their luck to hold on.Who can guarantee that all the wonderful things are concentrated in the trailer? (DC universe is shot silently)

Thinking of this, he picked up the phone and dialed a familiar number: "Ishida-kun?"

Knowing that Nobuyuki Idei is on vacation today, he estimated that nothing would happen, so when I answered the phone, Ishida was drinking and chatting with some capable men, when he suddenly heard the phone at home ring, and the caller was actually the BOSS, breaking out in a cold sweat. He made a gesture to the hall, and the whole hall fell silent immediately. He picked up the phone and replied carefully: "It's me! What's the president's order?"

"Did you watch this year's Super Bowl?" Nobuyuki Idei waited for a few seconds before receiving his reply, but thinking that he should be resting today, he didn't care about it and asked straightforwardly.

"Ah? I didn't look at it. Did something happen, President?" Ishida's heart skipped a beat. As an out-and-out Japanese, and a Japanese from the underworld, he didn't have much interest in American football games. , or she is not interested in most games, unless the game is boxing.

""Jurassic Park" placed an advertisement in the Super Bowl, and set the release date of the movie as June NO.11, I need you to help me confirm the quality of this movie, especially inside Warner evaluation." Nobuyuki Idei calmly ordered that Ishida was brought by him from Japan, and he is an extremely reliable subordinate who can help him deal with various matters that are inconvenient to be handled through formal channels, and he can be regarded as his own direct descendant.

"Hay! I will find out the quality and viewing reaction of this movie as soon as possible." Ishida bowed his head and accepted the task with a serious face.

"This year is very important for the overall development of our company. I don't want a movie with variables to disrupt our plans." Nobuyuki Idei said sharply.

"Hay! Hay! I will definitely find out as soon as possible!" Ishida expressed his position again, bowing almost ninety degrees while responding.

Then, Nobuyuki Idei hung up the phone. Hearing the beeping sound in his ear, Ishida said the phone respectfully and put it back, then waved his hand to the people in the living room, making a gesture of the end of the party.

The people in the living room also knew that it was the call from the president, Nobuyuki Idei, and that their boss had just been assigned a new task, so they stood up and waited for Ishida's order.

"Kimura is going to check the preview of today's Super Bowl "Jurassic Park" and make a copy as soon as possible. I want to see it." Ishida faced a thin figure with long yellow hair and a fierce face in the living room. said the man.

"Hay!" Kimura hurriedly responded when he heard the order, and then hurried out to do some business.

"Odagiri, please check if there is any internal relationship with Warner Corporation. I need some internal feedback on the movie "Jurassic Park." Ishida pointed to another yellow hair and said.

"Hay!" Odagiri also left in response, without delay.

"Todd, you are the only white person under my command. Go and see if you can get involved with the New Line. I need to track all their movements in real time."

"Yes, boss." Todd nodded without any questions.

Seeing that all his subordinates left under his own arrangement, Ishida sighed slightly. How beautiful it was in Japan at the beginning, but when he came to the United States, he was not only restricted and discriminated against, but also the company was suppressed and had a hard time developing. Yi won a few major movies to be released this year, but in the end, he encountered another stunned young man who disrupted the stage. If he was in Japan, he would directly go to the other party's company with a knife and solve the problem. So many questions?Damn white skin Z, he cursed inwardly, then gathered up his mood and went to collect relevant materials about this movie that suddenly appeared.

……

Compared to Sony's big move, several other film companies didn't react too much. Their major movies are far away. Either they have passed the initial sprint, or the other party is exhausted, and they have little competition with them. , so don't care too much.

But no matter what, the film editing, soundtrack, dubbing, sound effects, and special effects synthesis are all going according to plan. With the help of experienced industry experts from Warner Films, everything is proceeding in an orderly manner.

But Adam was not idle, because his novel "The Colony" was finally completed and entered the post-editing process. He did not plan to cooperate with his old friend Harper Collins on this novel, but planned to pass it through the channel of "California Times" In the past few months, the "California Times" has taken root in the United States relying on the great sales of its novels. With its own channels, there is no need for others to share a piece of the pie.

HarperCollins has known about Adam's plan since he acquired the "California Times", but there is no other way. People go to higher places. Although Adam walks faster, he will eventually come to this point. There are other aspects of cooperation, so the two parties broke up peacefully.

The Colony did not follow the path of serialization to attract popularity and then publish it. It is the same as "Jurassic Park", directly published. The only difference is that today's Adam is no longer the original Adam. His reputation is currently the most influential in the United States and even the world. One of the most powerful authors, although he only debuted for a year or two, who made his book so popular.

This is why he was able to leave HarperCollins alone to face the bookstore without the need for publishers to negotiate. The "California Times" originally had a publishing business, but it was not big. This time publishing Adam's new book can be regarded as an expansion of business. Chance.

Adam's new book is about to be published. As soon as it was revealed, it was welcomed by several chain bookstores, and they were willing to recommend the new book spontaneously. Woolen cloth?The expectations for it are naturally high.

Because Adam positioned this book as a non-commercial bestseller, he was somewhat conservative in the number of prints. The first print was only 100 million copies, scheduled for March 1993, [-], Adam's birthday.

However, in February, Adam sent the first batch of printed novels to the hands of various fiction critics, and at the same time, the "California Times" also officially gave a book review. Of course, this book review is undoubtedly a great praise. Why is this also the new book of their BOSS, if it is not well received, can it be published in the newspaper?

As for whether the book critics have good or bad reviews, it is not clear. After all, at this time, the critics are scolding Adam's novels for being too commercial and depraved. Now the trend is in full swing, and Adam directly used his own pen name. A science fiction novel was released, and the entire market temporarily fell silent.

As for whether to continue scolding Adam for being unrepentant, the new book continues to be commercialized, or to change its tone, it depends on the comments of those novel critics who have read the first batch of new books in the next time.

However, Adam dared to deliver the novel to various critics in person half a month before the novel was released, which is enough to show Adam's confidence in his new book, otherwise, the continuous wave of bad reviews will definitely affect the quality of the novel , even if he is Adam Baker, there is still no way to restore the market that was ruined by bad reviews.

The first to respond was the New York Times, an old-fashioned newspaper that has been vaguely hostile to the California Times since its rise, and was the first to publish a review of the new book "Colonies" before everyone reacted— — "Adam Baker's most gorgeous turn after being highly commercialized"
