Chapter 531 Which one is stronger in eating books

On the way back to Los Angeles from Irvine after leaving Blizzard, Uwe Bauer couldn't help but ask, "Robert, how did you talk to Blizzard?"

Robert Lee touched his nose and said with a smile: "It's okay, Mike Mohuaimi's attitude is a little loose, but it's really hard to say." ”

It is also possible that the so-called considerations will be in the consideration stage for the next decade.

Uwe Bauer shook her head: "Hey, these guys are like rocks on the mountain, all stubborn and inflexible. ”

It's not that they don't know how to be flexible, but they are full of doubts about you as a director! Robert Lee sneered and said: "Only when Blizzard Entertainment loosens its attitude and begins to weigh whether cooperation with Relativity Entertainment can bring benefits, we may have the opportunity to go further, but the initiative is on Blizzard's side." ”

Compared with Uwe Ball, a film director who only knows how to stalk, Robert Lee has obtained too many adaptation rights for Relativity Entertainment, and he has a lot of experience in this area.

Uwe Bauer said: "I wish I could get it done soon, and next month I can start working on a Warcraft or Diablo film adaptation." ”

Although he doesn't think Uwe Bauer is very capable, Robert Lee still admires Uwe Bauer's work attitude and professionalism, reminding: "It's hard to say whether you can get the authorization or not, it's better to run other projects first." ”

Uwe Bauer nodded: "That's what you said, I've been grinding Blizzard for two years, and I don't care about waiting a little longer." ”

Robert Lee smiled: "Good things are grinding. ”

"I hope it can be done. Uwe Bauer said: "You tell Ronan that if you get the license to adapt the Blizzard game, you must keep it for me." ”

Robert Lee said, "These copyrights are meant for you. ”

Ronan had carefully talked to him before, to portray Uwe Bauer as a star director, to be exact, an alternative Internet celebrity type of star director, as far as the current point of view, a series of operations have initially achieved their goal.

Speaking of which, it's really incredible, the times have become too fast, ten years ago, a director like Uwe Bauer couldn't be popular no matter how much he was hyped, but in the Internet era, he can become an alternative star director, and even those seriously substandard movies he directed, there are people who support them, and those people are talking about it beautifully while shouting badly, what is this?

knew that it was a super bad movie, so I had to go and see for myself how bad it was, and while shouting that it was terrible to see after watching it, I also said that it was really fragrant......

Robert Lee knows that he is a bit outdated, and that the film market is changing too quickly.

In the future, if he wants not to be eliminated by the market and the times, he, a man in his forties, must also step up his studies and adapt to the trend and changes of the times.

Go back and register a Netflix account first, and play the most fashionable Netflix sharing.

At the beginning, an Internet disc company that was about to go bankrupt has become one of the hottest Internet emerging industry companies in Ronan's hands, and it is said that several investment banks have expressed investment interest.

Perhaps in the near future, I will be able to witness the emergence of an Internet giant.

Uwe Bauer thought of another thing at this time: "Robert, I have applied to Ronan to buy the film adaptation rights of another game, if he approves it, can you help me and let people talk about it quickly? ”

Of course, Robert Lee will not refuse, this is the job of his department, and said: "As long as Ronan approves it, I will immediately ask people to negotiate the authorization with the copyright owner." ”

"Thank you. Uwe Bauer laughed all over his face.

Robert Lee said with a smile: "Your own people, you don't need to be polite. ”

Just as Uwe Ball and Robert Lee were on their way back to Los Angeles from Irvine, Ronan had seen one of Uwe Ball's latest application reports.

In addition to his love for his beloved Blizzard, Brother Bao also has a good taste for other games.

This time, Brother Bao took a fancy to the game "Vampire Lane" of the terminal reality company, and wanted to win the copyright of the film adaptation, and then strive to complete the filming next year.

In the past, Uwe Bauer has filmed many films, and Ronan has some impressions, such as the heroine of the vampire movie is played by the actress of the female Terminator of "Terminator 3".

The specific name of the actor Ronan has been forgotten.

However, for this kind of film, you must find an actress who is sexy and beautiful enough, which is one of the selling points.

Ronan has the power to approve all film projects of Relativity Entertainment, so he naturally has to take a closer look at the relevant situation of the project.

He asked Connie to look up the relevant information.

At the same time, Ronan also bought a game disc of "Vampire Lane" and installed it on the computer to play it for a while.

"Vampire Lane" is an action game released in 2002, the background story takes place in the thirties and forties of the last century, and the enemies are mainly ** soldiers.

The main character of the game is a sexy redhead Ryan who is half human, half vampire, so she has the abilities of a vampire.

In the event of excessive blood loss in the game, all the player has to do is command Ryan to pounce on the enemy and then suck their blood, so that the lost health will naturally recover.

Ryan's main weapons are two long knives, and when using the long knives to attack enemies, Ryan will also use kicks and other graceful moves as a secondary attack.

At the same time, as the game progresses, players can also pick up weapons discarded by enemies, such as pistols, shotguns, machine guns, etc., to arm themselves.

In addition, it has a variety of special abilities: Time Acceleration to detect enemies at high speeds, Index Vision to find the location of targets, Sniper Camera to shoot enemies from a distance with precision, and Enraged Attack to double attack power, attack angle, and attack speed in a short period of time.

The game sells averagely, the sales volume is not as good as "Dungeon Siege", and the influence is not great.

Since Ronan wants to make Uwe Bauer an alternative star director, he naturally will not refuse such an excellent film project, and it was quickly approved.

Of course, the scale of investment in the film must still be controlled, and in principle, it cannot exceed "Dungeon Siege".

If he can get the rights to the "Warcraft" series from Blizzard Entertainment, Ronan will definitely invest more in Uwe Ball.

It's very, very difficult to get there, after all, Blizzard is very brand-focused now, not like it will be in the future.

Judging from what Robert Lee said, Blizzard's consideration will probably stay in the consideration stage for a long time.

Taking Blizzard alone is most likely a dead end, so Vivendi is an option to consider.

Vivendi acquires these game companies with the sole purpose of making a profit, and to get the most out of it in the shortest possible time.

Ronan personally called Vivendi Group, after the last acquisition, the relationship between the two parties is not bad, Vivendi also said that he will seriously consider Relativity Entertainment's request to buy the copyright of its game film adaptation.

Blizzard Entertainment maintains a certain degree of independence, but it is ultimately a subsidiary of Vivendi, and the Vivendi Group has a bad reputation in the gaming industry, and is very fond of directly and forcefully interfering in the operation of the acquired game companies.

Vivendi Group has always been known in the gaming circle for its spicy hands.

In the mid-to-late nineties, Vivendi Group acquired the game company Xueleshan, which thought he had hugged a local tyrant father.

Unexpectedly, only a year later, Vivendi revealed his fierce face and began a terrible "domestic violence", first closing all the development studios under Xuele Mountain, laying off a large number of employees, and then Vivendi reorganized his game department and disbanded Xue Le Shan.

Since then, Xuele Mountain has existed in name only.

In fact, Vivendi is no different from Ronan's relativistic entertainment, and the six major Hollywood companies, just a snobbish businessman who is full of money in his head.

It never pursues how many good games it can bring to players, and only thinks about how to squeeze out the commercial value in the shortest possible time.

In 1998, Blizzard was "adopted" by the Vivendi Group, and Vivendi also directly intervened in Blizzard, resulting in a large-scale exodus of Blizzard employees, including the "Dark Four".

In order to obtain greater benefits, Vivendi forcibly merged Blizzard into Vivendi Games.

Suffice it to say, if the Vivendi Group wants to sell the movie rights to Blizzard's games, Blizzard simply can't stop it.

Because if you really want to buy the rights, you don't buy them from Blizzard, but from Vivendi Games.

If there was another way, Ronan would not have made Vivendi's move.

What if after getting the copyright, Blizzard Entertainment gets nervous and eats books indiscriminately? What will "The Lich King Wrath Again" and "The Legion Come Again" leave a big hole on the ground?

Ronan simply believes in Blizzard's entertainment discipline, because Blizzard is afraid of Blizzard himself when he eats books in order to protect his own interests.

Which game eats books strongly, Blizzard waves in California, USA!

The copyright owner has capricious capital and power, for example, the former Marvel Comics had a lot of trouble with Twentieth Century Fox because of the copyright and income of "Fantastic Four", so they simply killed the Fantastic Four in the comics, and then the comics stopped updating indefinitely.

These two are just typical examples of lose-lose, Marvel Comics stopped updating comics, and Twentieth Century Fox filmed a new "Fantastic Four" on time and budget in order not to violate the contract.

Compared to that superhero movie, Uwe Bauer's film can be regarded as a masterpiece of conscience!

Robert Lee moved very quickly, and the week that Ronan approved Uwe Power's application, before the weekend, professionals from the copyright and legal departments negotiated the film adaptation license for "Vampire Lane" with Terminal Reality, and the two parties were quickly signing a formal licensing transfer agreement.

Because of the box office success of "Dungeon Siege", Terminal Reality initially offered a high price, only a symbolic transfer fee of one dollar, but demanded a 5% share of the North American box office.

This was certainly unacceptable, and after a few days of negotiations, the two sides agreed on a $500,000 base transfer fee plus a 2% North American box office profit share.

With the increasing fame of Relativity Entertainment and the increasing number of successful movie adaptations, it is increasingly difficult to obtain the adaptation rights of various works at a low price.

For example, it is easier to talk about an unfamous author or a small company, but anyone with a little capital will often offer a high price.
