Looking at the confident Vin Diesel, Ronan gave the only premise for cooperation: "Sign a five-part contract with Shahai Entertainment as an actor for five "Fast and Furious" films, or star in "Fast and Furious 3" as the third actor. ”

Vin Diesel didn't think about it at all, and he knew that the plot that was off the hook couldn't be pulled back, so he simply refused: "It's impossible." ”

"This is the premise of our cooperation. Ronan shook his head slightly, stood up and prepared to leave: "It's a pity that Dominic Toretto can't appear in the new Fast and Furious movie. ”

That being said, Ronan doesn't have many regrets, after all, Shahai Entertainment has done a good job of filing.

It's not the core, it's not the boss, it's not the power, and you have to sign a deed of sale, how could Vin Diesel, such a confident and proud person, agree, shook his head and said: "It's not that you don't show up, it's that you don't want to." ”

Ronan didn't say anything more, shook hands with Vin Diesel and prepared to leave.

Vin Diesel suddenly said: "Mr. Anderson, I take the liberty of reminding you that in order not to have copyright disputes in the future, you had better not use the themes I just mentioned in the movie. ”

Ronan stopped, turned around, smiled, and said: "Thank you for your kindness, let me remind you, Shahai Entertainment has completed the script of the new trilogy of "Fast and Furious", which includes the concept of racing family and logging tired, the crew registered the copyright at the Copyright Office and the Screenwriters Guild a few months ago, you better not use these again, otherwise it is really easy to have copyright disputes." ”

"Uh......" wrapped around Vin Diesel's confidence and bullishness, and he suddenly choked.

Ronan didn't look at Vin Diesel anymore and left the office with Connie, as for what Vin Diesel would think, let him go.

Copyright disputes are impossible, and what he said just now is the truth.

Without the bullish Donald, Paul Walker can be used as the main plot line, and then new characters can be introduced, and then a racing family can be formed.

As for Dominique Toretto, when the first part of this character left, it disappeared.

It was a long time after Ronan left that Vin Diesel came out of his office, touched his big bald head with an aura of confidence, and walked towards the outside of the theater.

The agent came out of a corner and asked, "How's the talk?"

Vin Diesel said directly: "I didn't talk about it, Ronan Anderson is too arrogant, he doesn't fail once, and he doesn't know the importance of talent." ”

The agent was speechless for a moment, and he felt that Vin Diesel was talking about himself.

Vin Diesel did not plan to go to the premiere of "Spider-Man 2" again, and said to his agent: "Contact to book a ticket, and we will go back to Los Angeles as soon as possible." ”

He's going to go to the Copyright Office and the Writers Guild to see for himself if it's really like what Ronan Anderson said.

Getting in the car and looking at the streets of Brooklyn, Vin Diesel clasped his hands to his chest, strong as the Brooklyn Bridge.

The painstaking idea can't be in vain, and Ronan Anderson won't cooperate, but the company Hollywood wants to work with is that they can create another series.

The more Vin Diesel thought about it, the clearer his thinking became, and the more he felt that this plan was feasible, and said to his agent: "Go back to Los Angeles and connect me with a few screenwriters who are good at action movies, I have an idea for an action movie, and I need to find someone to complete the script." ”

The agent said: "It's easy to find a screenwriter in this area. ”

Vin Diesel added: "Reach out to companies like Universal Pictures, Paramount Pictures, Twentieth Century Fox and Walt Disney and tell them I have an action movie project in my hands. ”

"Okay. The agent responded: "Although "Star Legend 2" failed at the box office, there are still companies that want to cooperate......"

Vin Diesel waved his hand impatiently: "I said that "Star Legends 2" was just a small accident, don't mention it again. ”

The agent realized that what he said just now touched something that Vin Diesel didn't want to face, and quickly changed the subject: "The negotiation with Shahai Entertainment ......"

Vin Diesel said categorically: "No more talking. ”

What else is there to talk about? Sign a deed of sale and let Shahai Entertainment exploit and oppress me for ten years? I am a dignified 200-pound heavy humanoid motorcycle with a fierce personality! A super film talent who is a screenwriter, producer, director, powerful in body, strong in muscles, tall and full of artistic talent!

Vin Diesel will never be a slave unless he has enough bald heads!

Since "Spider-Man 2" has already begun to be screened, Ronan did not enter the theater, exchanged a few words with a senior executive of Sony Columbia Pictures, and found Howard Stringer, who was also not in the theater.

Having previously received a report from Chris, Howard Stringer is very clear about Ronan's purpose, saying: "If the opportunity is right, Sony Columbia Pictures is willing to work with Marvel to further develop the Spider-Man series. ”

When is the right opportunity? Be patient.

Ronan simply said directly: "The situation in society and the film industry has changed rapidly in the past two years, and the agreement on "Spider-Man" is no longer suitable for this era, and it is necessary to sign a new agreement between Marvel and Sony Entertainment." ”

When he said this, Ronan suddenly thought of Mel Gibson, it seems that after the release of "The Passion of the Christ", Mel Gibson is what he looks like?

Why does Mel Gibson disgust him when he takes his actions for granted?

Sure enough, normal people have double standards.

Treating oneself is one standard, and treating others is another.

Howard Stringer smiled: "Ronan, you've always been trustworthy. In Hollywood, you're known for keeping promises and paying attention to the spirit of contract, how can you go back on the copyright agreement for "Spider-Man"?"

These words almost hung Ronan in the air.

If you were an ordinary person, you would definitely be forced into the corner by these seemingly praising words, and you won't be able to move for a short time, but Ronan's thick skin immediately laughed.

"The copyright agreement for Spider-Man is not signed by Relativity Entertainment, and it has nothing to do with me. Ronan understated: "Howard, if I'm not mistaken, Sony Columbia Pictures did not get the copyright of "Spider-Man" from Marvel, there is no agreement between Marvel and Sony Columbia Pictures, and there is no way to talk about violating the spirit of the contract." ”

Howard Stringer was a little surprised, this was the first time he had actually dealt with Ronan, and it was quite a surprise for this young man who was less than thirty years old, but had a hundred years of cheek.

These are all fallacies, but there is no way to refute them.

Because Marvel and Relativity Entertainment have indeed not signed a copyright and sharing agreement for "Spider-Man" with Sony Columbia Pictures.

What the two parties abide by is the agreement signed when Marvel sold "Spider-Man" to Cannon Pictures.

Howard Stringer is well aware that the huge benefits brought by the "Spider-Man" movie have ushered in the peep of Marvel and now Marvel's last home relativity entertainment.

But Sony Columbia has been boiling up for so many years, and finally boiled out such a super best-selling series, is it easy?

What are you kidding?

"There is no need to talk about amending the agreement or re-entering the agreement. Howard Stringer must take a tough stance and deal with the greedy prying eyes of the outside world: "Ronan, in the end, your Relativity Entertainment and Marvel Entertainment just want to share more benefits from the "Spider-Man" series of movies. ”

This sentence goes straight to the core of the problem, making it impossible to refute, Ronan did not refute, but continued to act as a double-standard dog: "Marvel Entertainment just wants to get the share it deserves." ”

Howard Stringer suddenly asked, "Have you ever considered a question?"

Ronan wondered, "What's the problem?"

Howard Stringer said lightly: "Why should the son bought by Sony Columbia Pictures with his ability to return it to Marvel Entertainment?"

Ronan is thick-skinned to the sky: "As a father, whether it is new or old, he wants to see his son get better. ”

Howard Stringer was a little helpless about Ronan's shameless statement, and his voice gradually turned cold: "Ronan, Spider-Man's copyright and income are not something you can recover if you want to." ”

Ronan was also a little helpless, because Marvel was too poor before, and the poor sold his own sons and godsons.

In the end, Marvel simply sold itself to his relativistic entertainment.

These problems left over from history are really difficult to solve, and Ronan does not expect to solve them in a short time.

As with Vin Diesel, the interview between Ronan and Howard Stringer ended up unhappily.

Compared to Chris, who can be said to be a friend, Howard Stringer has a very tough attitude towards Relativity Entertainment and Ronan, and there is no room for negotiation.

It is impossible to recover Spider-Man in a short period of time, and Ronan can only focus on how to get some of the benefits of "Spider-Man".

Ronan said to Connie, "Let's go back to the hotel." ”

Connie hurriedly called the vehicle, and a few minutes later, got into a car with Ronan.

"When the premiere is over, you contact Avi Arad. Ronan said to Connie, "I'm going to meet with him tomorrow." ”

Connie quickly jotted it down.

Ronan added: "Inform all the heads of the company's publicity departments to prepare to build momentum for the fall of the Fantastic Four in the new version of the comics. ”

Connie asked, "Are you really going to kill the Fantastic Four?"

Ronan nodded lightly: "We must show the whole of Hollywood Marvel's determination, otherwise other rights will be renegotiated without any chance of success." ”

Connie understood the simplicity: "Hopefully Twentieth Century Fox will make a wise choice." ”

"I hope so, too. Ronan smiled: "But it's difficult, who wants to let out the cake in hand?"

Think about what Embassy Pictures does with Mel Gibson, and what other companies do with the new Marvel Entertainment when it comes to Marvel superhero movies.

Ronan couldn't help but sigh secretly: who would have thought that this role would change so quickly!
