The Best Entertainment Era
Chapter 509 Ending Feelings
Sending away Yassen Bernat, Robert Iger also left the water club and returned to Burbank.
Such negotiations between the two sides at almost the same time actually need to be resolved quickly, but he can't show any anxious attitude, or even tone, otherwise the talks will never come to an end.
In the future, these two transactions must be promoted as quickly as possible on the basis of sufficient confidence and stability.
Universal Pictures will be able to sign an agreement this week. The original plan was to use the reserves of Relativity Entertainment to complete the transaction. The reserve amount will be reduced by 100 million US dollars, which is very likely to affect the group company's ability to resist risks.
Well now, the funds to complete the transaction were successfully resolved.
Thinking of this, Robert Iger couldn't help showing a smile. Although he couldn't get the copyright of Jurassic Park that Ronan wanted, he could solve the Hulk and Fast and Furious series without spending the group's financial resources for the time being. The copyright purchase funds can be regarded as successful achievement of the goal.
As for whether the Fast and Furious series can continue to be successful, and whether Hulk will turn around, Robert Iger believes in Ronan's production ability.
He has no doubts about this now.
The Hulk is related to the Avengers plan. Although Fast and Furious is a road racing film with a medium to low investment, cars belong to the mainstream culture, and there is a lot to do when it is done well.
Robert Iger breathed a sigh of relief. Although it was a pity to pass by Universal Pictures, this was limited by the objective conditions of Relativity Entertainment and could not be solved by humans.
Several plans for next year also require him, the chief operating officer, to complete, and preparations must begin now.
A promotion and a salary increase are natural. The position of CEO was prepared for him by Ronan a long time ago. If Relativity Entertainment Group can continue to expand in his hands, option rewards will not be a problem.
Robert Iger is so driven that he feels ten times better than when he was alive and dead at Walt Disney.
This job-hopping seems to be able to move towards the pinnacle of life.
If Ronan was rejected at the beginning and continued to stay in Walt Disney, it is unimaginable.
Three days later, Robert Iger took the lead in signing an agreement with Ron Meyer representing Universal Pictures, and obtained all the copyrights of Hulk and Fast and Furious.
a,
It also reached a loan agreement with NBC, and Relativity Entertainment received a five-year interest-free loan of US$100 million.
Although Relativity Entertainment is still building momentum for the acquisition of Universal Pictures Entertainment Group, it has officially withdrawn from the acquisition competition.
After getting the copyrights of Hulk and Fast and Furious series, Ronan has no action for the time being. The former will only be useful after the Avengers plan is launched. A separate Hulk movie must be well planned, at least not too much. Poor, and the former actors had to be replaced.
Edward Norton has no problem with his acting skills and is very suitable for playing abnormal roles, but if he cannot sign a long-term contract, he must be replaced.
In the past, because Marvel Pictures only took back the joint use rights of the Hulk from Universal Pictures, the Hulk could only appear as a co-star. The Hulk movie alone had to pay Universal Pictures a huge share, so Invincible Hao No Hulk standalone movie has been released since Gram.
There are many fans of the Hulk. In Marvel's superhero comics, they belong to the first class of superheroes.
Shahai Entertainment does not have the concerns of Marvel Pictures. Now that the copyright is completely in its hands, it can make a good plan for an independent Hulk movie.
Like the stories Hulk and Natasha-Normanoff had to tell?
As for the Fast and Furious series, the second part has just been released this summer, so don't worry about the third part.
The so-called Tokyo Drift is a pit, just jump over it.
The role of Han used to be, in the eighth part, it is estimated that the Himalayas moved here, and he would not be able to hold the coffin. Without Tokyo Drift, just replace this role.
And Gal Gadot.
Ronan just thought about it, and quickly put it behind him, he couldn't make a mistake.
Entering October, Ronan made a special trip to East Asia and attended the premiere of Infernal Affairs 2 in a certain Xiangjiang.
As the rescue work of Xiangjiang Films, since the first film is a big hit, the sequel will naturally follow.
There is no doubt that this is the last glory of Xiangjiang movies.
Ronan has watched countless Xiangjiang movies, which can be regarded as the end of a certain feeling.
After the premiere, Ronan obtained the script of Infernal Affairs 3 from Andrew Liu according to the agreement. Although the plot is not as good as the first two, it is still a rare masterpiece of conscience.
After returning to Los Angeles, Ronan handed over the script to the screenwriting department of Shahai Entertainment, and the screenwriting department assigned staff to start preparing the script.
The two selected screenwriters had participated in the screenwriting work of Crime Scene Investigation before. Although they were only members of the screenwriting team, they were very familiar with crime and police and robber themes.
And before the transfer, the two, as the heads of the screenwriting team, had just finished the script of Prison Break.
Ronan is the chief creative officer of the group, and he is in charge of these tasks. He specifically talked to these two people. The two people left Los Angeles immediately and went to Boston, where the traditional gangster culture is strong, to do field research and prepare for the adaptation of the American version of the script.
it is necessary.
Ronan requested that only the general plot framework be retained, and other content, including character setting and gangster culture, be overthrown and rewritten from the original work.
After all, this film was made for Americans.
Movies under Relativity Entertainment are still showing in theaters. Last month's sensational Chain Saw did not escape the fate of plasma horror movies. It fell to 6.58 million US dollars, and the single-day box office of the new week's working day fell directly to about 500,000 US dollars.
The North American box office of this film currently totals 64.14 million U.S. dollars, and the global box office has successfully broken through 100 million.
Although the screening life cycle of blood plasma horror films is short, the total investment of less than 10 million U.S. dollars has earned more than 100 million U.S. dollars at the box office. Chain Saw will definitely rank in the list of various low-cost and high-grossing movies in the future.
At the same time, the North American box office of Pirates of the Caribbean easily surpassed 360 million U.S. dollars, with a cumulative total of 365.88 million U.S. dollars.
The global box office is as high as 733.58 million US dollars.
The film set Relativity Entertainment's highest North American box office record and a worldwide box office record.
Hollywood's island genre has undoubtedly turned around, and many people believe that after years of silence, pirate movies are about to usher in a golden age.
But the success of Pirates of the Caribbean cannot be replicated, because Captain Jack Sparrow cannot be replicated!
After two months of recuperation, Gore Verbinski reconvened the crew and went to Rosario, Baja California again, to shoot the last two sequels at one time.
The crew of Pirates of the Caribbean was split into two, and the casting and modeling teams stayed in Los Angeles to recruit new main actors, such as the actors who selected the pirate kings.
Ronan is not interfering. The crew has a mature production team and director team, and George Clint is watching in person, so you can rest assured.
The only news he cared about was that George Clint accepted Gore Verbinski's suggestion to invite Marco Pony to be Captain Sao Feng.
Of course, before the crew set off, Ronan had a special chat with Gore Verbinski, reminding him not to ignore the smoothness of the plot because he paid too much attention to the gorgeous special effects.
As for greatly compressing the special effects and spending the shots on the narrative, Ronan has no such idea.
Special effects are one of the biggest selling points of this type of film.
Frankly speaking, such a movie that is biased towards young people, the main audience is teenagers, lively and gorgeous is a must for the movie.
Ronan holds the final editing rights of the film, and the post-producer of the crew is Jessica Felton. The power of the film is actually completely under his control.
For this film, as long as Captain Jack is around, there is no need to worry about not having an audience in the next ten years.
Once Walt Disney had to overthrow and start over, the poor audience reputation of the fourth and fifth films was only a secondary reason, and the real reason was Johnny Depp.
At that time, Johnny Depp was in a very bad state, and related news was everywhere. Things like being late and playing big names were trivial matters. The pair with Amber Heard can really be described as golden wind and jade dew. When you meet, you will win but there are countless people in the world. A scumbag meets a rotten woman, and the negative news that happens between the two is like sparks colliding with the earth.
Johnson-Depp has become a time bomb in the Pirates of the Caribbean series, which is completely uncontrollable. No one knows when it will explode, blowing himself and his huge investment to the sky.
Then there is the salary of Johnny Depp. Although other films other than pirates are bad, but as Captain Jack Sparrow living in the world, Johnny Depp is irreplaceable , that high salary almost made the producer vomit blood.
As a typical serial movie superstar, the former Johnny Depp had the super high salary of Robert Downey Jr., but he did not have the professionalism of Robert Downey Jr.'s prodigal son.
Also as a star actor cooperating with Disney, the gap between the two is really too big.
Another piece of good news is that Embassy Pictures officially launched the DVD of The Bourne 2 into the distribution channel a week ago, and it sold 4.23 million sets within a week of its release, with sales reaching as high as 79.21 million US dollars.
Starting from Spider-Man and Lord of the Rings in 2002, the corresponding data of the annual sales champion in the North American DVD market has risen to 10 million sets and more than 200 million US dollars in sales.
Ronan once read a statistic, about five or six years after the release of Finding Nemo, the total DVD sales exceeded 16 million sets, and the total sales reached more than 320 million US dollars.
This seems quite exaggerated, but it is the data jointly released by several third parties.
It is not an exaggeration to say that in the ten years from 2002 to 2012, Hollywood studios relied on DVDs to make profits.
When Ronan was paying attention to the DVD market, the famous movie star Monica Bellucci from Italy paid a surprise visit.
