The Best Entertainment Era

Just like Hollywood movies, any series that is popular in North America will have a good response in the global market, and there are original works as the basis.

The popularity of A Song of Ice and Fire: Game of Thrones quickly spread to the entire western world. In just ten days, it brought nearly 8 million new paying users to Netflix.

The upsurge brought by drama series and users has been directly reflected in the stock market. Netflix crossed the threshold of market value of 90 billion US dollars in mid-September, only one step away from 100 billion US dollars.

At the end of this year, it is not a problem for Netflix's market value to exceed 100 billion U.S. dollars.

As the absolute controlling party, Relativity Entertainment has Netflix in hand, which means it has an additional operating channel.

While A Song of Ice and Fire: Game of Thrones was on the air, Ronan took the time to chat with George Martin.

Our first step was a huge success.

In the reception room, Ronan was in a good mood, with a faint smile on his face all the time: George, you will continue to participate in the writing of the second script.

George Martin was in a better mood than Ronan, with a face full of white beards, his lips could hardly be closed in a smile: The writing of the script has already started, and we will be able to come up with the first draft soon.

Ronan turned to the topic: George, I'm looking for you this time, and there is one more thing. When will this series of novels be completed? Do you have any specific plans?

Don't worry. George Martin said calmly, I've already started writing the fifth part, and I have a plan for the sixth part. You have to give me some time.

Ronan continued: The series will basically be launched at a rate of one season per year. George, you can't let the progress of the series surpass your original work in a few years, right?

George Martin smiled and said, It's okay, I don't mind.

Hurry up. Ronan urged, I hope that all your novels will be finished before the episode ends.

Seeing Ronan's seriousness, George Martin quickly assured, I will do my best.

Ronan didn't say any more, hoping that George Martin still had enough momentum behind him.

Once the original novel of Game of Thrones, it was really a living time series.

In view of the great success of the first season, preparations for the second season began quickly, but like the first season, the second season will remain at about ten episodes.

The external promotion is to ensure the quality, but there is another layer of consideration internally. Even if those large-scale war scenes are cut off, the production cost of this series is still too high. Every additional episode means that the risk will increase exponentially. .

The popularity of Game of Thrones also reflects the audience's interest in this kind of conspiracy theme.

The House of Cards that David Fincher is still filming can also be said to be a conspiracy type, and it is closer to the real society than Game of Thrones.

The production progress of this series is not fast, and it will not be launched until next summer at the earliest.

However, the materials and commercials released for publicity have attracted a lot of attention.

There has always been no shortage of audiences in North America for topics related to the Washington authorities.

Why does Hollywood always drag the Washington authorities out as the villain's scapegoat? It's not because the public is always paying attention to the social and political situation there.

Although they cannot personally participate in the power struggle, but they enjoy being spectators and discuss enthusiastically. The public on both sides of the Pacific is actually similar.

Any struggle for power is brutal.

In the words of the original A Song of Ice and Fire: A Game of Thrones: Power is by no means a simple thing. Authority and violence have always been the two pillars of power.

If power is compared to a magic wand, then the top of the wand inlaid with diamonds is called authority, which means the legitimacy and majesty of power; the sharp spike at the end of the wand is violence, and it will show power when necessary cruelty.

As long as the greed and desire of human nature are still there, the game of power will never stop and end, except for piles of corpses and victims, it will not really leave a living person.

All victories are temporary, and the victor will eventually lose in the protracted power struggle, giving way to the next strong man.

George Martin has written several volumes of novels. Of course, the power in it cannot be applied to the real society, but it is also a real reflection of some situations, especially those countries that are dictatorship and war-torn.

Simply put, what is power?

Power is not fear, so Ramsay and the White Walker army, who are good at frightening others and have cruel methods, will not be the final winners; power is not power and court fraud, and Cersei and James, who have a narrow structure, will not be the final winners. Power is not metaphysics and illusions, so Stannis Baratheon, who always wanted to take shortcuts, died on the battlefield; power is not equal to justice, so the bishop High Sparrow and the Brotherhood Without Banners, who represent the bottom of the public opinion, are so faint ; power is not a sense of morality and honor, which is why the Stark family, the King of the North, is close to extinction.

Even though Jon Snow looks so good-looking and such a good-looking young man, Game of Thrones still stabbed him to death in the snow with great interest, like a killing performance art in a public exhibition.

Heitantou, who is supported by Relativity Entertainment, is currently launching a game of power in Washington. He has defeated Zipperton's wife and become the number one candidate in the Democratic Party.

If nothing else happens, Heitantou will win next year and become the new owner of the White Room in 2009.

Ronan also took a longer-term view. Relativity Entertainment is also cooperating with Mr. Chuan's company. The very intelligent future princess has also been to Los Angeles recently to talk with Shahai Entertainment about characters such as Peppa Pig. Candy authorization and other matters.

Relativity Entertainment has a dedicated public relations department to handle these tasks, so Ronan doesn't need to worry about them himself.

As for President Chuan, he also wants to be in politics?

Inside the Beverly Clubhouse, Will Smith looked at the newspaper and shook his head: Only he still wants to participate in the presidential election?

Ronan sat on the sofa, raised his legs, and said, Anything is possible.

Tom Cruise said: Don't forget, even George Clooney wants to learn from Reagan.

Will Smith put down the newspaper and asked Ronan: It's the same as before, is he putting on a show?

Ronan said casually: Maybe he really wants to sit in that position. Although he is a representative of many interest groups, he is also the leader of the United States.

Someone once said that President Chuan's coming to power represents another voice in the United States, and it is a backlash against the crazy spread of Baizuo.

Yes, white left is a social trend, but there are also many people who are disgusted.

Tom Cruise joked: If there is a chance, I would like to try to sit in that position.

I don't want to attend your funeral decades in advance. Will Smith was also joking: With your serious attitude, if you sit in that position, you must be assassinated.

Ronan said: The commander of the United States who has not been assassinated is not a qualified commander.

Will Smith said solemnly: The most outstanding commanders in the United States all died in the hands of the Americans themselves.

Tom Cruise remembered something and asked, Ronan, I heard that Shahai Entertainment is making a parody of Lincoln.

It's not just about spoofing Lincoln. Ronan said simply: Famous presidents like Washington and Jefferson are going to make a spoof. Uwe Ball is going to turn them into vampire hunters, magicians, and demon hunters.

Will Smith became interested: This idea is good, but the director is unreliable.

Ronan said: Uwe Ball is very capable, but the director level is just a little bit worse.

Hearing this, Tom Cruise and Will Smith were speechless for a moment, feeling as if something was wrong?

By the way. Ronan took the initiative to change the subject: Whenever you have time, come to my place as a guest.

Tom Cruise and Will Smith looked at each other, and finally Will Smith said: Will you not disturb your two-person world?

They all know about Ronan and Jessica Felton, and they are relatively familiar with Jessica Felton. Now that Ronan's manor has a mistress, it is naturally different from before.

Ronan said: Jessie wants to invite you, and a few of her friends, to the manor for a gathering.

Tom Cruise said: Okay, you can confirm the time and contact me. I just finished filming Inception, and I will stay in Los Angeles recently.

Will Smith made a phone call: I'm available anytime.

During the recent period, his mind has been completely focused on the post-production of his son's new film Kung Fu Dream, and it can be said that he has broken his heart for his son.

Ronan nodded: I'll discuss the time with Jesse, you wait for my call.

Tom Cruise said: I can now confirm that you are very serious.

Ronan understood what he meant: Tom, I've always been serious.

People who are free and easy like us. Will Smith seems to be very experienced: Once you get serious, you are more serious than anyone else.

Hearing this in his ears, Ronan felt that it made sense. It seemed that he had become a good man.

Will Smith asked: Tom, do you have no plans to find a regular partner again?

Tom Cruise shook his head directly: I finally jumped out, I don't want to ask for it anymore.

Ronan glanced at him and said, Stop hitting Tom, he's been getting crit hits all the time.

Who? Who dares to bully you? Will Smith asked aggressively, Isn't this against me and Ronan?

Tom Cruise said with 12 points of helplessness: Who else? My ex-wife.

Will Smith lost all momentum in an instant: We can't help you with this.

Ronan didn't have much to say, he could only say poor Tom Cruise...

Nicole Kidman is now in an endless loop. The films she shoots fail one after another. The more difficult her career becomes, the more she needs to increase her exposure. If she wants to increase her exposure, she keeps talking about Tom Cruise. thing.

Well, the poorest one is Nicole Kidman's current husband.

Ronan, have you heard? Tom Cruise said suddenly: There seems to be some bad trends in the circle.
