On April 2, Marvel Entertainment sent a professional negotiation team, led by Chief Operating Officer Dan Buckley, to Twentieth Century Fox to discuss with Tom Rothman about the return of some heroes.

Donn didn't ask about it, he believed in Tom Rothman's IQ.

If he wants to avoid the major contradictions in the past and change cooperation, he must pay enough benefits, otherwise everything will not be discussed!

Donn's headache now is the president of Marvel Studios.

He made a bold statement at the beginning, saying that as long as he acquired Marvel, he would definitely improve the structure of Marvel Studios, instead of being an empty shell.

Now, with Towne Pictures borrowing $7 million from Towne to complete the acquisition, he naturally wants to fulfill that promise.

Donn's biggest secret weapon is the sunglasses system.

However, in this system, there are only the professional attributes of the three positions of "producer", "director" and "actor", and there is no introduction to the attributes of managerial talents.

Therefore, for the candidate, Tang En can only rely on some memories of connections, headhunters and prophets.

The president of Marvel Studios must be a filmmaker, there is no doubt about it.

Several people quickly came to Don's mind - Grant Hill, David, Lionel Wigram, Rick McCallan.

Grant Hill, the producer of "Titanic", had a very pleasant collaboration with Donn. The advantage is that he is capable and has a solid relationship, but the disadvantage is that he has no management experience, and he is a confidant of Bill McNick, so he is not easy to pry into the corner.

David Heyman, who is helping Don buy the rights to the entire set of "Harry Potter" books, has a unique vision, excellent management, and is good at public relations, but he has set up his own production company in the United Kingdom, Shengri Pictures, and will come to work for Donn?

Lionel Wigram, Warner's producer, is also the recommender of "Harry Potter", and his vision and production ability are passable. And he is a cartoonist, creating excellent comics like "Sherlock Holmes", and he is a talent who combines comics and movies, which is very suitable for the position of president of Marvel Studios.

Rick McCallan, producer of Star Wars Episode 1: The Ghost Man Menace and Tom Rothman's henchman, works happily with Donn, has a rich imagination, is good at science fiction, and has the ethics of a filmmaker. Disadvantages, deep qualifications, old age, difficult to control.

Donn pondered for a long time, then shook his head and vetoed Lionel Wigram as well.

It is foreseeable that because of Donn's selfishness, Warner will be greatly dissatisfied with the "Harry Potter" project. If you pry the corner of the wall like this, will it make Warner angry?

Tang En had a headache, so he simply put on sunglasses and searched for people in other positions.

It is mainly the production department and the screenwriting department.

As Towne Pictures slowly grows bigger, many departments need to be filled in, so Towne has recorded a lot of names, and plans to really expand the production departments of Towne Pictures and Marvel Studios.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he saw a name that was both familiar and unfamiliar on the value of the production ability "81" - Nina Jacobson.

Tang En seemed to remember something, and quickly clicked on this person's value.

There is no director's ability, there is no actor's ability, mainly the producer's attributes-

Production 72, Market Judgment 91, Literary Aesthetics 67, Project Evaluation 89, Screenwriting 48, Casting 93, Stage Control 87, Management 88 (this is set management, not company management), Public Relations 82......

She didn't have too conspicuous values, so she didn't find out when Tang En was selecting talents before.

However, Tang En's previously selected team members were all talents with serious "partial subjects", with individual attribute abilities and extremely poor comprehensive abilities, so it was impossible to take charge alone.

However, this Nina Jacobson is different, she has no anti-heaven attributes, but she has a strong comprehensive strength, and she is an excellent producer who can dominate one side.

What's more, the name is thunderous!

She is one of the few female bigwigs in Hollywood!

Basically one of the five female bosses.

the first, Shirley Lansing, the current leader of Paramount;

second, Amy Pascal, the current president of Columbia Pictures, will be the second leader of Sony Entertainment in the future;

third, Gail Borman, the current president of Borman Digital Media, the future president of Paramount, and the president of Fox Broadcasting;

The fourth place is this Nina Jacobson!

The fifth, highest-grossing female producer Catherine Kennedy, the future president of Lucasfilm.

For Nina Jacobson, the most vivid memory is that in 2007, she was ousted from her position as president of Disney's production department and chairman of the Broadway Group.

Because she had a serious disagreement with Nate Shyamalan, Nate Shyamalan left Disney with his original project "Banshee in Water" and instead worked with Warner.

Disney was so disappointed that it lost the opportunity to work with such a great director, so it fired Nina Jacobson.

Of course, this is also due to her pregnancy and childbirth, and she has taken a long vacation.

Quite ironically, "Banshee in the Water", which was not favored by Nina Jacobson and was produced by Warner, failed miserably at the box office!

After leaving Disney, Nina Jacobson founded her own production company, and then launched the famous movie series "The Hunger Games".

Prior to that, she helped Disney launch blockbusters such as "The Sixth Sense", "Glory Days", "Princess Diaries", and "Pirates of the Caribbean".

For these achievements, Nina Jacobson received a Crystal Award for female filmmakers, and in 2005 she was named to the list of the 100 most powerful women in the world.

Don didn't know what Nina Jacobson was doing, so he called his secretary and immediately went to check her information.

That afternoon, Reese Witherspoon brought back the results.

Nina Jacobson was born in 1965. In 1987, he graduated from the prestigious Brown University. After graduating, he successively worked at Silver Pictures, McDonald Films, and then successfully entered Universal Pictures, one of the six major film companies, as an associate director of production.

During her time at Universal Pictures, she oversaw the production of many films such as "Twelve Monkeys" and "Young and Frivolous".

She then moved to DreamWorks to become the head of filmmaking at DreamWorks, where she developed the Danger project.

Because of conflicts with Spielberg and others, and the failure of the movie "Strategic Killer", she left DreamWorks last year and joined Disney, where her position declined, mainly responsible for the production of script supervision.

The work attribute is equivalent to Andrew O'Hare, a market analyst at Down Pictures.

However, compared to Donne's trust in Andrew, Nina Jacobson, who has just joined Disney for less than a year, must be difficult at work.

After reading her information, Don's heart swelled, and he became excited.

"Send charcoal in the snow, brother likes to send charcoal in the snow!"

Don is almost certain that as long as he sends an invitation to the position of president of Marvel Studios, Nina Jacobson will not hesitate to agree!

The position Disney gave her was too low.

Even if Marvel Studios is just an empty shell now, having such a golden sign as Donn means unlimited potential.

Donn called Reese Witherspoon back, handed her a list of lists, and "call these people for interviews right away." ”

Reese looked at the recruitment list of more than a dozen people above, and was a little dizzy, where did this big boss get so much confidence?

Don ignored her hesitation and handed her another note, "Immediately send an invitation to these two people in the name of Don Pictures and Marvel Studios." ”

Reese glanced at Don in surprise and saw two names written on the note—

Nina Jacobson, president of Marvel Studios. ”

?“ Kevin Feige is assistant to the president of Marvel Studios. ”

"Donn, wouldn't this be too hasty?"

Tang En waved his hand, "Don't worry, I know it in my heart!"

……

The next day, Donn had two simple and crisp talks with Nina Jacobson and Kevin Feige.

Subsequently, Marvel Studios paid Disney $250,000 in liquidated damages and hired Nina Jacobson, a 34-year-old female producer, as the president of Marvel Studios.

Hire 26-year-old Kevin Feige as assistant to the president and assistant producer to assist Nina Jacobson in the company's management and production of Marvel movies.

At the same time, there is also good news from Marvel Entertainment.

The negotiation team led by Dan Barkley and Twentieth Century Fox negotiated very smoothly, and Tom Rothman facilitated the negotiations with the utmost sincerity.

Marvel Entertainment recovered the rights of the three superheroes Deadpool, Daredevil, and Erica for a total of $300,000.

And also reached a partial cooperation.

Because Deadpool's story involves a lot of X-Men characters, Fox agreed to share Deadpool's main teammates with Marvel Entertainment? Electric Lock", but he is never allowed to mention his X-Men identity.

It's like Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver can appear in the Avengers without mentioning that their father is Magneto.

Although only three and a half heroes were recovered, it was enough to cheer Don up.

Needless to say, Deadpool is the most charismatic anti-hero, and his lowly character will bring a different kind of life to the huge Marvel universe built by Donn in the future.

As for Daredevil......

This is related to another major industrial layout of Tangen.

Now, Marvel has taken back most of the superhero rights, and only X-Men is left behind.

The situation of Sony, Fox, and Marvel as in the previous life is no longer the same.

In this case, the plate that used to belong to Sony, Don naturally wanted to catch it very unceremoniously, by the way...... Grab the living space of DC Comics.

Daredevil carries a glorious and important mission.

Marvel movies will definitely take off.

Moreover, under the leadership of Donne, it will definitely be more brilliant, more dazzling, and more ...... than the previous life he has survived Take over Hollywood!
