After buying Marvel, I became the king of Hollywood

Dawson and his wife divorced.

After all, money corrupted Dawson, and his cheating was discovered by his wife.

After his wife found out, she chose to take revenge on him, and also found a man to cheat on her.

I won't go into details about the chicken feathers here.

Simply put, he is divorced.

And he divided a large part of the funds to his wife, which can be regarded as an amicable separation between the two parties.

And a divorce, coupled with the close communication between Dawson and Ms. Rowling, the author of Harry Potter.

Slowly, they came together.

Now, Rowling has moved into Dawson's newly bought villa with her daughter.

It's not too long before they get married.

Of course, Dawson will not bring these personal matters to work.

Today, he has an appointment with Leiter.

To discuss matters related to Harry Potter.

After such a long period of fermentation, coupled with vigorous investment in publicity and distribution.

Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone successfully created a miracle in the children's book market, ranking among the top sellers.

It sold 80 copies.

For this reason, Dawn Movie almost invested all the money it earned from Harry Potter into the sales of Harry Potter.

As a result, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone have become a well-known IP in the United States.

A little magician from England, accompanied by countless children to dream.

It has also been loved by many adults.

Time came to noon.

Lei Te arrived at Chenxi Film Company on time.

The two film companies have the same boss, and everyone is no stranger to Wright, the president of MGM. The secretary in charge of the reception directly sent Wright to the reception room.

····

After Lei Te sat down, he didn't write any ink, and directly stated his intentions.

"Dawson, the crew of Harry Potter, can start the project. I have already asked Kevin about this."

"He asked me to discuss it with you. He is busy with Spider-Man now and has no time to deal with these things."

Dawson thought for a moment, looked up and said:

"The most important thing for this crew is casting, there is no doubt about that, right?"

Lei Te nodded.

Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone is a fairy tale book for children.

This is destined, the movie it adapts is a family-oriented one.

If it can show the characteristics of those cute little magicians in the books, so that it can be loved by the same children, then the movie will be considered a success.

"Then let's hold a large-scale casting event first, and choose the actors of the Harry Potter Iron Triangle from all over the world!"

"This is also an opportunity to expand the influence of Harry Potter IP."

This is not Kevin's idea, but Dawson's own idea.

Having been a tool man for so long, Dawson also wanted to express himself.

After discussing with Rowling, he made this plan and held a casting event facing the whole world.

From all over the world, select three small actors for the main roles.

That is, the three characters of Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, and Ron Weasley.

At the same time, he will announce to the public that the film will be directed and produced by Steve Kevin.

As soon as the news came out, everyone could understand.

As long as he can be selected, he will definitely become one of the best child stars in Hollywood and earn countless money.

This is the best chance to change fate.

Then whether they are selected or not, these people will definitely buy a Harry Potter and read it.

This played a role in expanding the influence of Harry Potter and at the same time creating momentum for the film.

When Kevin finished his work on Spider-Man and came back to shoot Harry Potter, the Harry Potter crew would definitely get a lot of attention and save a lot of publicity costs. Thinking of this, Dawson couldn't help but order for himself Like.

Chapter 231 Shushan is under the shadow, and the harvest

Rhett also felt that Dawson's idea was very creative.

Similar casting activities have been held before.

But most of the range is in the continental United States.

And what Dawson said is to directly select three young actors from all over the world, which will definitely get countless attention.

If nothing else, because this is a new work by Steve Kevin.

Steve Kevin is now a gold-lettered signboard in Hollywood. His movies are popular one after another. Who doesn't want to be the actor selected by him.

Once selected, it means being able to become a representative star.

Don't underestimate this.

With a masterpiece, basically relying on this role, you can eat for a lifetime.

In Hollywood, even if it's just a small star outside the third tier, a movie can cost hundreds of thousands of dollars.

After playing the role of Steve Kevin in a movie, he was able to become famous in one fell swoop and become an actor in Hollywood.

Fame and fortune naturally come one after another.

So, for this quota, is it necessary to know what kind of work Harry Potter is like in advance.

Even if they didn't have this plan, there were not a few people who bought a copy of Harry Potter because of Steve Kevin's plan to make a movie about this novel.

Steve Kevin, today's fame, has long been not only in the United States.

It can be said that among the vast majority of European and American countries where English is the subject, they are all famous.

As famous as Spielberg.

"good idea!"

Rhett couldn't help but praise Dawson's idea.

Seeing that Lei Te agreed with his ideas, Dawson became more motivated, and he pulled Lei Te to discuss the specific plan for this casting activity.

In short, within a few months, through this activity, the influence of the best-selling children's book Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone will spread to the whole world.

For the Harry Potter movie.

······

Fast forward to February.

Kevin, who was filming, received an Oscar invitation letter from the company.

It's the noon break time now, and the three directors, one director and two assistant directors, are eating boxed lunches.

Of course, this is what it means, not a real box lunch.

It is different from the concept of healthy eating in mainland China that eats well in the morning, eats enough at noon, and eats less in the evening.

In the United States, the most important thing is actually dinner.

As for breakfast, the emphasis is on nutrition, which is usually just milk, bread and a fried egg.

Noon is simpler, a sandwich or a KFC McDonald's fast food can be done.

Therefore, the three of them just dealt with something to eat.

The staff sent the Oscar invitation letter and left.

Seeing Kevin holding the Oscar invitation letter indifferently.

Mitte was a little envious:

"Kevin, are you going?"

"Don't go."

Kevin didn't care.

The Oscars are just a PR game.

Ever since Batman The Dark Knight won the Best Director Oscar, Kevin has lost interest in the Oscars.

To put it bluntly, the commercial films he made were not the type that Oscar likes. In the future, Oscar will play tricks because of political correctness, so that his credibility will drop again and again. Winning an award is enough for Kevin .

Moreover, the Matrix, because of lack of public relations, may not even give him some technical awards in the original history, and if he went there, he would just rub the red carpet, which is useless.

Mitt was instantly envious.

This is Kevin's confidence. If you say you don't like Oscar, you don't like Oscar.

When does he still want to go to the Oscars to have fun, especially the celebrations after the awards are over, it is the easiest place to hook up with female stars.

There are no good people in the entertainment industry, this saying is universal no matter where.

Don't say 100%, two people have a bad guy, there must be omissions.

Of course, the bad here refers to morality.

For men and women in the entertainment industry, the waistbands are indeed loose enough.

Kevin glanced at Mitt's expression and knew what he was thinking.

"Want to participate in the Oscars?"

"Yes···"

"no!"

Mitte immediately denied it.

Kevin said unhappily:

"Do you want to make a commercial blockbuster and earn both fame and fortune, or become an art film director and earn a name."

"Of course I want to make a commercial blockbuster."

Mitt snorted.

Kevin educated again;

"Then make a good movie. In the second half of the year, you and Schneider will make a big movie alone."

"Snyder, if you shoot Ghost Rider, use Nicolas Cage as the main character."

"Mitt, you're shooting Iron Man, and the main character is Robert Downey Jr."

Zach Schneider and Mitt showed expressions of surprise and happiness at the same time.

Although Kevin told them earlier that they would be asked to make a movie later, Kevin did not tell them the specific schedule.

Now, to see what Kevin means, in the second half of the year, they will be responsible for the shooting of a movie.

This made them even more impatient.

They had been co-directors before, and it was finally time to be able to direct a movie independently.

Looking at the happy two, Kevin also had a smile on his face.

This is all his background.

For a film company, it is very important to have such a long-term cooperation director.

In the previous life, Huayi in mainland China established a stable cooperative relationship with mature directors with the most appealing and professional strength in the Chinese market, such as Xiaogang, Tsui Hark, and Xingchi.
