Ace Hollywood

Brad Gray was the first to walk out of the conference room with a normal face, of course it wasn't good-looking. Ron Mayer walked side by side with Universal's Stasi, the former superiors and subordinates, and now the heads of the Seventh Congress, are a little closer than before. After all, Universal Pictures still has a parent company, and Ron Mayer has always been one of the Stasi competitors at Universal.

Jeff Robinoff and Robert Iger of Warner Bros. were one step behind, while Mike Linton and Fox's Bill McNichol walked last, whispering.

But most of them were paying attention to what Mayer and Stasi had to say.

They are discussing Daniel.

"Daniel is at school now?"

"Yeah, he needs a few minutes to report, and the premiere of 'Wall-E' is next Monday and he's going to attend."

Stasi nodded, "I met Griglas before and talked about the third part of The Bourne Bourne, which should be finished by this time next year, and if it is released later in the summer, the time will be a little tight. ."

Ron Mayer understood what Stasi meant. On the one hand, he was emphasizing the relationship between Universal and dd. On the other hand, he was indeed reminding Daniel that he needed to set aside time for The Bourne 3. After all, his job next year looks very full, and he still needs to study.

"I will communicate with him, there should be no problem." Mayer said with a smile, turning to look at Fox's McNichol, "Bill, we will be shooting "Night at the Museum" next year, and I hope we will have a good cooperation."

"I don't remember that I cooperated with MGM." McNico quipped that "Museum" is a project of DD Pictures and has nothing to do with MGM.

"Don't forget, I'm the vice president of dd Pictures." Mayer blinked, and everyone was amused except for Brad at the front.

There is no friendship between these Hollywood power figures, and it is unlikely that it is because of each other's attitudes. It affects the cooperation between companies. Therefore, getting along with each other is quite free and casual. For example, Brad Gray was too annoying in the conference room just now, so now everyone takes his face together, and there is no burden. It's even less likely that Paramount will not get along with the other Big Six -- if that's the case, Viacom will let Brad pack up and get out of here.

Therefore, he can only cover his head and keep silent now.

McNicol looked at Linton beside him, "Really. Fox is working for dd film again. Most of the revenue from the "Museum" movie belongs to dd film and Daniel, and we only account for it. small portion,"

It's no secret in the industry that Fox and dd Pictures have teamed up for a small-budget comedy, and importantly, it's starring Daniel himself - which is enticing enough to count Daniel's recent work. And a few movies I plan to make. "Social Network" kills many birds with one stone. In addition to a big promotion for its mb and f2f, it has also achieved great success itself, not only at the box office. Also includes several Oscar nominations and three Oscar statuettes. Since its release, Fernando's "The Immortal Gardener" has performed unexpectedly, although not a big sell, but relative to expectations and costs. The dd film industry also makes a lot of money, not to mention, the reputation of this film is quite good. Both Daniel and Rachel's performances were appreciated by all parties. Daniel is very likely to be nominated for the Oscar for the fourth time with this work. For him, the fourth consecutive nomination is of extraordinary significance, which means that his performance has once again made a breakthrough, winning consecutively at the Oscar level. Breakthrough is an unrivaled glory for contemporary actors. In addition, downloading the currently filming "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" is one of the most promising commercial series.

It can be said that each one is very eye-catching. Among the thousands of films in Hollywood every year, there are very few such works.

In 2006, Daniel's plan included the musical biographical film "Invincible", which was named by the real protagonist. This work was favored by a lot of people before the filming started, especially the actors needed to show their singing voice in the film, whether it was Daniel or Reese Witherspoon is very much anticipated. According to Daniel's "habit" of making an Olympic film every year, next year's "Forever" is likely to be Daniel's film. Just this title - Daniel's Olympiad works, is enough for everyone to express their attention.

"Gladiator", "The Pianist", "Pirates of the Caribbean", "The Social Network"... Each of them is wonderful and can be called a classic of the times.

In addition to "Forever", the third film of the "Bourne Bourne" series will also start shooting next year. As one of the most successful series in Hollywood since the 21st century, Jason Bourne has countless fans. The network war of fans is also fresh in the memory. Among Daniel's fans, he is probably only slightly inferior to Captain Jack and the Elf Prince. According to Disney's briefing, a third Pirates of the Caribbean installment also appears to be on the way -- although it now looks unlikely to start filming next year.

Therefore, from these works, we can see how high the quality of Daniel's works is.

The fact that a low-budget fantasy comedy like "Night at the Museum" can attract Daniel may indicate that Daniel is very optimistic about the story - from this perspective, Fox only occupies a small part of the interest, which does make them a little worried. If he missed out on a blockbuster hit, McNichol might be quite distressed.

Of course, many people are also speculating that Daniel's participation in "Museum" may be because the drunkard's intention is not in wine, but in "Avatar".

This super production, James Cameron has been preparing for many years, and the actor shooting will officially start next year or the year after. At this time, Daniel launched Fox's tentative cooperation, which will inevitably make people take this into account. "Titanic" allowed Paramount at the time to share a huge cake from Fox. This time, many people became interested in "Avatar".

But there is also fear. James Cameron is the director that investors love most, but also hate the most - his work is enough to earn investors incredible returns, but it also requires investors to take risks that far exceed other projects.

No money, no money, need money, need more money!

finished? No, it's not halfway there yet!

No, I need money. budget? Who can be sure of everything before starting one?

This is the conversation between Cameron and Fox that actually took place during the filming of Titanic. Even a studio of Fox's size was almost dragged into the water.

Therefore, it is no surprise that Daniel will be interested in "Avatar".

But this is something Fox needs to consider, and it has nothing to do with other companies.

Disney's Robert, in a more harmonious atmosphere of conversation, suddenly mentioned a movie "High School Musical" that Disney is making.

"To be honest, our TV and film department originally planned to make a youth musical, which is even similar to the story frame of "High School Musical". Robert apparently saw the story of "High School Musical" from the report of the Screenwriters Association. Outline. Daniel is certainly faster than Disney. This script was originally a TV movie made by Disney for its own children, but the response was very good, and it was only on the big screen, which caused a whirlwind of singing and dancing.

Of course Ron Mayer didn't know anything about these, he only knew that Daniel had come up with the script, and after "High School Musical", Channing Tatum, who is now filming "Magic Mike", will also appear in another musical. "Dancing Out of My Life". This may indicate that Daniel is very optimistic about the theme of singing and dancing, which is completely different from "Chicago". Campus, youth, singing and dancing are all young and popular elements. The audience the movie is targeting. Obviously young.

"Daniel thinks this is also a potential area of ​​recovery." Mayer and Robert said, as Disney, Robert is actually one level higher than the people present, and Disney Pictures should be Dick Cook. But in addition to the film industry headquarters, Disney also has Miramax, animation departments, etc., so generally speaking. It is difficult for Dick to stand on the same level as the other six. After all, he does not master all the film and television departments that belong to Disney.

Robert has also listened to the analysis of the TV and film department. Of course they are also optimistic about this subject, but it is only a vague attempt.

But Daniel's action is not just an intention, he obviously supports the theme of youth singing and dancing. Robert felt he should consider a similar movie, but might have to watch it again.

His relationship with Daniel **** could not help but become mediocre due to various events. When they just collaborated on "Pirates of the Caribbean", he could directly chat with Daniel on the phone. For example, ask Daniel why he is optimistic about the theme of singing and dancing, why he will become an audience born around 90 years old and will love this theme, etc. But now, when he wanted to pick up the phone and dial that number, Robert didn't want to deceive himself, even one of the most powerful people in Hollywood, he wasn't sure if it would be Cusa Damon or Sarah Li, Daniel's agent and working assistant.

That would not be an issue to blame, even if it is a private phone call, it is hard to say that it is always in my hands.

Daniel had a thousand ten thousand reasons to tell Robert why the person who answered his phone was not Daniel himself, but he would never say the truest one: Daniel didn't want to answer his phone, didn't want to communicate with him directly.

But this possibility would be unacceptable for Robert's blow - he could not accept that his own phone calls might be deliberately rejected.

This is his dignity.

When Robert sits alone in the office, he also thinks of what he did to Daniel and DD Pictures.

Regret? Can't tell! But if it were possible to know that everything was pointless, or just to know about Daniel's relationship with Plutos Investments, he might change tack.

At least, be smarter. Ruining Daniel's relationship will indeed have some impact on the harmonious cooperation between the two parties.

In many cases, it seems that the relationship is good or bad, and it does not affect the cooperation. For example, dd Pictures and Disney can cooperate with "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" without any hesitation. Disney is willing to pay a record salary, and Daniel also agrees to cooperate with Disney's various Require. But after a rift does arise, in some occasions and opportunities, there will actually be very obvious differences. To give a notable example, when Daniel was poaching Andrew Stanton, he was unrelenting and unscrupulous. The reason why this happened is because there is no harmonious friendship between dd and Disney.

Daniel's digging is official business.

Robert can be sure that if the relationship between Disney and dd was not as cold as it is now, even if Daniel would still poach people, he would definitely try to get his support-although Pixar does not belong to Disney now, but from Pixar. Excavating the characters who lead the way must definitely be explained to Disney.

...

Ron Mayer has become the centerpiece of the party. It cannot be said that he has become the center of power in Hollywood, but at least he has received the greatest welcome.

In stark contrast to Brad at the front.

It's all, as mpaa president Christopher Dodd says, thanks to the man who wasn't here, Daniel Sandler!

Whether it was the frustrated Brad Gray, the proud Ron Mayer, or even the Stasi, Robert and others who watched Daniel become a legend, they all intuitively felt Daniel's power in Hollywood. Yes, after becoming the symbol superstar of this era, he managed to grab a position outside the limelight.

a horrible person!

These "old people" who are more than twice the age of Daniel, inevitably have different feelings in their hearts.

For a while, everyone fell silent. Fortunately, they had reached the elevator entrance.

...

While Ron Mayer and the others were discussing Hollywood events~www.wuxiamtl.com~ Daniel was knocking on his computer in the study room.

"How Texas Farmers Can Solve Their Milk Sales Problems"

This is his final report. The instructor provided this case, asking students to use their business knowledge to help this difficult Texas farmer sell his milk. The problems include falling milk prices and shrinking sales channels. narrow, transport conditions, increased competition, etc.

It's a problem!

"Why didn't he sell his money-losing farm and invest in something else?"

This is a team project, and the one who is muttering on the side is Galio, a classmate in Daniel's group.

Daniel glanced at him, "You can suggest that, maybe the instructor will give you an A because you think differently."

The irony in it made the rest of the group lower their voices and laugh. (To be continued..)
