Spielberg and Lucas were both happy and sad at this time.

The two are arguably the most successful directors and producers in Hollywood's history, but up to now, their entertainment companies are still a level behind the big production companies, although they themselves can talk to the presidents of the big production companies on an equal footing, and sometimes they even have the upper hand.

Now their opponent, Phantom Entertainment, is making great strides in the direction of large production companies and even media groups, which is naturally worrying them.

But happily, because of the expansion of Phantom Entertainment, it is obvious that the cake of several major production companies has been moved, and the next target to face is also obvious.

The effect of this is that Phantom Entertainment's two major works next year, "Terminator 2" and "Jurassic Park", will be jointly encircled and suppressed!

Although Phantom Entertainment did not announce the specific release time of these two movies, according to everyone's speculation, Phantom will definitely not give up the most important schedule next summer.

The summer file is originally a schedule that every production company must compete for, and now coupled with the relationship of Phantom Entertainment, next year's summer file is bound to become the most tragic schedule in North American film history.

"We've been contacted by companies now!" Spielberg said.

Large production companies like Time Warner and Disney must have their own plans, and they will adjust their company's plans according to the movies released next summer.

To put it simply, if their company doesn't have enough good movies this year, then they will strategically choose to withdraw from this schedule and launch movies that are only distributed by themselves, so that they can minimize their losses.

But if they have full confidence in their movies, then they will choose to enter this schedule to fight, and everyone will rely on their abilities when the time comes!

Now everyone is waiting to see what movie Phantom Entertainment will launch in the summer.

If it is "Terminator 2", they may launch their own company's movie, although "Terminator 1" has achieved a good box office in North America and even the world, but the potential of this movie, everyone is not too optimistic, after all, the box office of "Terminator 1" in North America is only more than 70 million.

In fact, before the filming of this movie started, many production companies were very optimistic about the movie making money, but when they heard that the investment in this movie was as high as 102 million, many production companies retreated and did not want to participate in it.

According to the current film share, the box office of this movie in North America must reach at least about 200 million to make money, which is a bit too high, and many production companies have retreated.......

Although the cooperation between James Cameron and Arnold Schwarzenegger has made many people full of expectations, it is still unknown what kind of height the cooperation between the two can reach.

On the contrary, "Jurassic Park", a movie with a lower investment than "Terminator 2", has made many production companies more worried.

First of all, the director of this movie, Wu Jianye, is the director of "Ghost Love" who has just achieved a super high box office in North America, and the momentum is strong, plus the book "Jurassic Park", which has a large number of loyal readers in North America, these people are potential fans of this movie, and finally the gimmick of truly restoring the dinosaurs in the Cretaceous era is too much, and this movie has now begun to have a trend of explosion.

And all the production companies know that in order to prove himself, Spielberg chose "Captain Hook", a movie adapted from "Peter Pan", which is also super popular in North America, and will choose to be released at the same time as "Jurassic Park"!

Spielberg is a box office guarantee, and no one doubts it anymore.

In other words, if "Jurassic Park" chooses to be released in the summer, then the entire North American film market will usher in two blockbusters, "Jurassic Park" and "Captain Hook"!

With these two blockbusters, there is at least an 80% chance that other films will become cannon fodder if they choose to be released at the same time as them.

So.......

"They're asking when Captain Hook will be released, right?" Lucas said nonchalantly.

Spielberg nodded and said, "Not only that, but they also want to cooperate with us to provide more theaters to release this movie!"

Lucas scoffed, "This is to push us out of the ring with the Phantom!"

Since other film studios don't have enough weighty movies to release, they have to choose to find a weighty movie to deal with the Phantom's expansion.

And the best option is Spielberg's "Captain Hook".

Spielberg smiled: "It doesn't matter what they think, if there are more theaters to support this movie, it means that this movie can achieve better results!"

Of course, they know what the major production companies think, but they are also happy to see it, and everyone has the same goal.

Then there is a premise for cooperation, and as for what everyone's little calculations are, it doesn't matter to Spielberg and Lucas at all.

"How did you reply to them?" Lucas asked.

"The release time is the same day as "Jurassic Park", they released it that day, we released it on that day, and as for their support, they naturally agreed. Spielberg laughed.

Lucas nodded, agreeing with Spielberg's approach.

.......

The agreement between Spielberg and several major production companies was soon known to Linda, and she was inevitably a little worried at this time.

Now the negotiations between Phantom Entertainment and Warren Buffett's Berkshire are ongoing, and although progress is slow, they are finally moving towards favorable conditions for Phantom Entertainment.

However, as Wu Jianye said, this negotiation is bound to be a long negotiation, and according to the current progress, this negotiation is likely to continue into next year.

This is actually Buffett's intention, he has the intention to invest in Phantom Entertainment, and naturally he has to look at the potential of Phantom Entertainment.

Now everyone knows the importance of the movie "Jurassic Park" to the Phantom next year, if this movie is successful, then the potential of the Phantom will be infinitely magnified, after all, everyone knows that "Jurassic Park" is a trilogy, which means that there will be three movies.

If it succeeds, Buffett will be more confident in taking a stake in Phantom, and if it fails, then Buffett will have to consider asking for more cash!

Only in this way can you be worthy of the shareholders of your own company.

Even at that time, it will be more difficult for ABC to acquire.

Johnson, who was on the side, looked at Linda's worried look and said, "You don't have to worry too much, Wu Jianye hasn't failed before, and we should believe him this time!"

Linda gave Johnson a blank look, "I never thought that one day you would respect Wu Jianye so much!"

Johnson spread his hands and smiled: "Why not, the past has passed, now look at the achievements of the two of us, in the past we thought that we would develop to this point?"

"All this can be said to have been brought to us by Wu Jianye. ”

At the end, Johnson's expression showed a trace of regret: "I regret it a little now, if I could have let go of my prejudice against Wu Jianye earlier, maybe I could have joined earlier, then my achievements now would definitely be higher!"

Johnson is not lying about this, now Phantom Entertainment has developed into a large company with a valuation of more than $10 billion, Linda was the first to be with Wu Jianye, and now holds 15% of the Phantom's shares, if Linda wants to cash out this equity now, her net worth will definitely exceed $1.5 billion immediately.

Phantom Entertainment has only been developing for a few years, and it has reached such a height, how can Johnson not regret it!

Linda thought about it for a while, it was true that she saw Wu Jianye's talent in finance, so she decided to form Phantom Entertainment with Wu Jianye, it sounds like the two things are incompatible, but at that time, she just joined in, and now she is a little scared when she thinks about it.

If I hadn't joined Phantom Entertainment at the beginning, what would happen to me now?

Being an investment manager in his mother's investment company, while slowly accumulating his own resources, is likely to be such an outcome.

But now it's different, his net worth has surpassed his mother, and it all stems from the trust before!

Seeing that Linda didn't speak, Johnson smiled: "You, now it's too serious, Phantom Entertainment is too big, and you have forgotten how he made it big!"

Johnson's words, like a clear stream, directly entered Linda's heart, and then smiled: "What you said makes sense, I know what to do!"

"Haha, that's right, it's not like we've never faced this situation anyway!" Johnson laughed.

Since several major production companies now want to target "Jurassic Park", it would be good for the Phantom to deal with it directly, as Johnson said, the Phantom has not encountered such a situation.

When "Ghost Love" was released before, wasn't it like this, and in the end, didn't the phantom still win!

"How's the movie going over there?" asked Johnson with concern.

In any case, the core of this battle is the success of the movie "Jurassic Park", so both of them are very concerned about the filming of the movie "Jurassic Park".

"Everything is going well, Zhu Yan had a cold before, and the shooting was delayed for a few days, but now it's fine!" Linda replied.

Regarding the filming progress of "Jurassic Park", Linda will receive reports every day.

Johnson said, "That's good!"

.......

Today is a very important moment for the crew of "Jurassic Park", because the dinosaur model in the movie is finally about to appear.

Everyone knows that the absolute protagonists of this movie are these dinosaurs, but before that, Phantom Entertainment kept everything about the dinosaur model highly secretive, so except for the model experts in the digital field and the paleontologists invited, others didn't know the specific situation of the dinosaur model at all.

The importance of today's filming to the crew of "Jurassic Park" is naturally self-evident, Wu Jianye personally ordered that except for the relevant filming personnel, no one else is allowed to enter.

Even if it's Geda, neither can Kit.

It was Irina who got Wu Jianye's special permission to enter for observation, but even so, Wu Jianye confiscated all the recording equipment of the entire crew, which means that except for the equipment used for filming, all other equipment cannot be brought into the venue.

In order to do a good job of secrecy, Wu Jianye even asked Fengmu Security to send a team of 100 people to protect the scene.

When Irina saw the dinosaur mold, she finally couldn't help but get excited, although there are a lot of toys about dinosaurs on the market, but it is the first time that it has been restored 100%.

As a paleontologist, she specializes in this, so she couldn't help but run over and gently stroked the dinosaur mold with her hand, just like an ordinary girl seeing a peerless treasure.

Wu Jianye stood next to Zhu Xuan and said with a smile: "Look at her movements carefully, and you can learn from her behavior and expression in a while!"

Zhu Yan nodded, and did not answer Wu Jianye's words, but carefully observed Irina's behavior.

Everyone else also showed surprised expressions, and looking at everyone's expressions, Wu Jianye extended a thumbs up to the special effects team in charge of the dinosaur model.

Since last year, the special effects team of "Jurassic Park" has been working, and it took a whole year to finally make a model that satisfies Wu Jianye.

Seeing everyone's expressions now, their hearts are also extremely proud.

After Irina observed the dinosaur model, the crew entered the official shooting, because of Irina's real performance just now, and the other actors also found action behaviors that fit their characters' personalities.

The filming of the whole scene can be said to be very smooth, and after the filming of these scenes is over, these dinosaur models will be sealed and then transported to Los Angeles, and when the Phantom Cinema is successfully built, these models will be placed as props in the Phantom Cinema.

After the crew finished filming, Wu Jianye called everyone together again and reiterated the decision of the crew, that is, everyone is absolutely not allowed to disclose any news about the dinosaur model before the movie is released.

These are all mentioned in the contract signed at the beginning, but Wu Jianye is also worried about the appearance of spoilers, so he can only reiterate such a provision again.

Naturally, everyone also said that they understood that the spirit of the contract still had to be observed, mainly because of the huge amount of compensation, which they could not afford.

However, at this time, Wu Jianye still received a report from the person in charge of the maple security guard this time, and someone wanted to sneak into the scene to shoot the news of the dinosaur model.......
