Chapter 965
Although I don't know if Rand is obedient or really thinks so, it is basically impossible for Lin Xiao in "Hurricane Rescue" to be handed over to the Dick Group.
After all, some things happen when they happen.
Cracks are created, and they cannot be repaired to return to their original flawless appearance.
Rand knew that, of course, but he wanted to fight for the fact that a single home alone sequel wasn't enough to satisfy the board group.
Rand certainly has ambitions, Steven Johnson, and the countdown to leaving the Dick Group is basically all that remains.
After all, no company can tolerate the stupidity of Steven Johnson, who is happy to see management fighting, but this struggle is built without harming the interests of shareholders, and as a result, Dick Group loses dearly.
"Lin, doesn't the Dick Group have a chance?" Rand said with some disappointment.
"In addition to the sequel to Home Alone, several other series of films, next, we will adopt a competitive bidding method, whoever offers the highest price, we will cooperate with whom, and the Dick Group can also participate. Lin Xiao said lightly.
Rand's eyes lit up, and he nodded: "OK, Dick Group will definitely continue to participate." ”
Lin Xiao did not close the door to cooperate with Dick Group, which is a good thing, of course, even if Dick Group can win the distribution rights of the series of movies again, it is estimated that the benefits will be given up a lot, but at the very least, it can stop loss.
Although Rand was not so satisfied with the outcome of this meeting, it was not bad.
Soon, the Dick Group announced that Steven Johnson had been dismissed, and Steven Johnson became a laughing stock in the circle.
Of course, the Hollywood giants must be very grateful to Steven Johnson, and some even joked that Steven Johnson must have been sent by other Hollywood studios to go undercover for the Dick Group, otherwise, how could he make such a ridiculous decision?
Lin Xiao didn't pay much attention to this.
Soon, Dick Group reached an agreement with Lingxiao Group to transfer the shares of the legendary film industry to Lin Xiao.
On the side of "Hurricane Rescue", after several negotiations, Universal Pictures finally reached a distribution cooperation agreement.
The main reason why Universal was chosen is that this year, there are not many big productions from Universal, and most of them are in the first half of the year, and in the second half of the year, Universal Pictures has no big productions that can free up more resources for "Hurricane Rescue".
In fact, many Hollywood giants are not really interested in "Hurricane Rescue", they are really interested in the few box office blockbusters that Lin Xiao has in his hands.
Soon, Legendary Pictures, which was re-wholly owned, began to release news, including the three series of movies "Kung Fu Panda", "Once Upon a Time in China" and "Terminator", all of which will re-choose distributors.
One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and soon, Nami's phone was blown up, and during this time, she also experienced the feeling of being chased by everyone.
Although Legendary Pictures is only a small company, and even before it only made a few small-budget films, the Lingxiao Pavilion Group behind Legendary Pictures is a behemoth.
And he holds a number of series of movie IPs in his hands.
But before, Legendary Pictures only cooperated with Dick Group, and other Hollywood studios, although they looked hot, did not have a good way.
But now it is different, although the Dick Group cannot be said to be knocked out, but it is not so close and seamless cooperation.
In the end, the "Kung Fu Panda" series reached a series of contracts with DSN Group for film distribution and peripheral distribution.
DSN is the company that is best at works of all ages, and it is naturally the most appropriate for "Kung Fu Panda" to be handed over to DSN for global distribution other than China.
"Once Upon a Time in China" finally reached a distribution agreement with Universal Group.
And the release of the last "Terminator" series was won by the Dick Group at a price that everyone was a little unbelievable.
10% of the issuance share, and Dick Group also needs to advance the publicity funds.
Although the Dick Group took back the distribution rights of the "Terminator" series, Rand was bitter, because originally, they didn't need this at all, but one mistake turned into a thousand hatreds.
Steven Johnson, naturally, was pulled out by the media and whipped out.
On the side of "Hurricane Rescue", the director was quickly determined, and it was Rangnick, the director who had directed the famous North American series of movies "Spy".
It stands to reason that after directing the series "Spy", director Rangnick Aron should be successfully promoted to an A-level director, and this is indeed the case.
The "Spy" series made Rangnick his signature film, and after that, Rangnick received 2 major productions with an investment of more than 100 million.
However, as a result, Rangnick lost two in a row.
Hollywood believes that those who succeed can always succeed, maybe a director like Rangnick, fail once, it's nothing, but if you fail continuously, then it's a big problem.
So, in the past few years, Rangnick has been very unsatisfactory.
Lin Xiao has seen several of Rangnick's works, how can I say it? The series "Spy Shadow" is actually very good, and the "Spy Shadow" series is in the style of civilian agents.
Rangnick controlled this very well, and Lin Xiao also watched the two films that failed in the future.
Coincidentally, there is a film called "Pacific Rescue", which is also a rescue-themed film, but unlike "Hurricane Rescue", this "Pacific Rescue" is about a cruise ship being hijacked, and then there happened to be a former Navy SEAL member on the cruise ship.
Then this hijacking, the protagonist, that is, the former Navy SEAL members, killed all the robbers.
And, in the process of rescue, the protagonist and the heroine have a relationship.
It stands to reason that such a plot is actually a Hollywood popcorn-style plot, even if it hits the street, it won't be too serious, but the truth is the opposite.
This film, which invested more than 100 million yuan, finally had a box office of less than 50 million in North America!
It can be regarded as a huge loss.
In fact, rescue, rescue films are not uncommon in Hollywood, in fact, the "Spy" series is also a similar theme, but this is to save the world.
"What do you think is the problem with "Pacific Rescue"?" Lin Xiao asked as soon as they met.
Rangnick showed a wry smile, but he had expected this problem, because he had planted a big heel in this movie, and the key is that "Hurricane Rescue" is also a rescue-themed film.
So, in fact, the reason why Rangnick wanted the movie "Hurricane Rescue" was to prove that he would get up wherever he fell.
