244 MGM's new development

With the various performances of the hotel band, the atmosphere in the whole restaurant is enthusiastic.

"BOSS, this is Mr. Tom Shatyak, the director of the Big Talk King, this is Mr. Jim Carrey, the starring role of the Big Talk King, one of the most famous comedians in Hollywood. At this time, Li Feng, under the leadership of Frank, walked to a wine table with a drink, and then Frank helped introduce it.

Sure enough, after listening to Frank's words, Li Feng noticed the future king of Hollywood comedy - Jim Carrey, of course, although Jim Carrey has emerged in Hollywood at this time, he has not yet reached the height of the global comedy king in the future.

The future king of comedy has begun to become famous in Hollywood at this time, especially starting from the detective plane head in 94, and the next continuation of the disguised monster master, the next including the plane head sequel, ace correspondent, etc., some of Jim Carrey's special funny comedies have made him completely firm in Hollywood.

But it was the King of Talk in '97 that really established its status, and this film was a sign of Jim Carrey's maturity and becoming a real top comedy superstar in Hollywood.

Naturally, after the acquisition of MGM, Li Feng told Frank and Ovitz about Jim Carrey, although he didn't know his life evaluation, but Li Feng from later generations had always heard of Jim Carrey, the king of comedy.

At that time, it was specifically mentioned, and then with the efforts of Frank and Ovitz, the big talk king that originally belonged to Columbia Pictures became a product of MGM.

Naturally, MGM also paid a certain price, for example, Jim Carrey's salary increased by 1 million, for example, the original production cost of the movie was 45 million, and now Frank has given 50 million, which makes the director and the main one very satisfied.

……

After some small talk, Frank pulled Li Feng to another table a few steps away from him, and Li Feng met a Hollywood superstar again, Will Smith.

Again, this is Li Feng's masterpiece, and yes, recently Will Smith was making the Men in Black movie, which was one of the black superstar's most successful commercial films, which was later made into a series.

is almost different from the previous situation of Jim Carrey, after the acquisition of MGM in the first half of the year, Li Feng found that MGM now releases very few movies every year, and immediately thought of the famous works of those superstars in later generations.

But to be honest about the movie, although Li Feng also watched it, it wasn't so crazy, he just knew these superstars, so he mentioned the names of these superstars, so that Frank and Ovitz paid more attention to them.

With the efforts of the two of them, they either became CAA clients or were ready to intervene in the movies they were preparing, and finally contacted the director through the starring roles, and finally included both films in MGM's bag.

Whether it is the king of big words or the man in black, Li Feng has seen it in his previous life, and being able to see these movies in China proves that these movies are basically successful films, anyway, most of the films starring such superstars in the 90s have achieved excellent results, won awards or were full at the box office.

got acquainted with Will Smith, the next box office bomb and the director of Men in Black, Barry Sonenfeld, to celebrate the successful victory of the Men in Black series of movies, and saw that people could make money for themselves next, Li Feng also had a happy conversation with them.

Naturally, the heroines in these two movies have been replaced by Li Feng's women Charlize Theron and Halle Berry, which can be regarded as Li Feng's selfishness, but in Li Feng's opinion, there should be no big problem.

……

Similarly, with the support of Li Feng, the protagonist of the ransom storm in 96 became Monica Bellucci, and the investor of the British patient became MGM.

It is said that the British patient was originally invested by Fox, but later fell out with Harvey Weinstein, Li Feng heard about it at the time and directly instructed Frank to take the investment and distribution rights of the British patient, which is the main Oscar favorite promoted by Harvey Weinstein Brothers, and Li Feng has no reason to let it slip away.

Naturally, Li Feng's rebirth would have been a little earlier, but he didn't know that the world-famous Harvey Weinstein sexual harassment incident broke out later, otherwise it might have been considered separately.

But the only thing Li Feng knows is that the British patient is the first Oscar best picture produced by Harvey Weinstein, and then Harvey embarked on the road of Hollywood's top behind-the-scenes boss.

Some of the movies he promoted can always become the most popular at the Oscars, which is why Li Feng asked MGM to invest in British patients, so that he can go more smoothly for his company's Oscar journey in the future.

In fact, the later experience did make Li Feng and MGM a lot smoother, for example, Li Feng's women became Oscar-winning actresses, and then with the outbreak of Harvey Weinstein's sexual harassment incident, Li Feng and MGM just watched the excitement.

At that time, Li Feng had become one of the most powerful people in the world, and had become a symbol of wealth and power.

Naturally, it also changed the fate of several people, and a few names were missing from that long list. At the wine table, Li Feng naturally chatted with the Weinstein brothers for a few words.

……

Li Feng is very concerned about MGM's current situation, and he told Frank before that before each movie project, let them send a copy of the main line and materials of the movie to themselves, not that Li Feng wants to participate in it, but just wants to see if there are any well-known movies in his previous life.

There is also when I thought of my own woman, I thought of those women-themed movies that later became famous all over the world, such as Tales of the Night, Resident Evil, Tomb Raider, etc., and now Li Feng has begun to tell Frank to talk about copyright, and it is said that the result is not bad.

Resident Evil and Tomb Raider, which were launched this year, have obtained various copyright operation rights except for games, and Li Feng proposed a concept of full copyright operation with Frank and Barry at that time.

For example, Resident Evil, Tomb Raider, etc., have been changed into, anime, etc., and can then be adapted into film and television works and various peripherals, etc.

There are also legends of the night, such as Blizzard Games' acquisition of White Wolf Studios and the rights to Nancy Collins' short film and television adaptation. For this, Li Feng specially took care of it.

On the one hand, it can strengthen Blizzard's own comprehensive capabilities in games, and on the other hand, it can add content materials for future development and copyright operation.

……

In his previous life, Li Feng had a period of infatuation with the heroine of Pearl Harbor and the British Rose Kate Beckinsale, and it was only at that time that he learned that although the movie "Legend of the Night" is said to be the director's original, in fact, most of the designs in it are plagiarized from a game by White Wave Game Studios and a short story published by Nancy in 94.

Later, it was said that the Legend of the Night crew reached an out-of-court settlement with White Wolf Studios and Nancy, and paid a large amount of money in compensation.

Now that he knew about this, Li Feng naturally would not repeat the mistakes of the past, and immediately ordered the people below to do something.

These are all film projects that can bring rich returns to themselves, and with the analysis of 007 and other movies, MGM will definitely be able to have a brilliant result next year.

An unusually lively drinking banquet was over, after which everyone moved to the banquet hall, and the subsequent dance party of the drinking party began.

During the whole cocktail party, Li Feng spent the whole time chatting with others, and drank a lot of drinks, but fortunately, he had the foresight to come after dinner, and he didn't need to be hungry. Otherwise, they would have to fill their stomachs with drinks and drinks like Frank.

At this time, the banquet hall was rearranged, and a large stage was vacated in the middle for people to dance, and there was a band performing on the side, and many people danced in it. The stage is surrounded by tables with drinks, snacks, snacks and more for guests to eat and drink.

Just finished a social dance with Shirley Lansing, the top female power figure in Hollywood, chatted for a while, returned to his rest table, sat down and chatted with Barry Diller and the others.

……

"Mr. Li, is it an honor to invite you to dance?" A crisp woman's voice came from behind Li Feng.

"Oh, BOSS, the beautiful woman is here!"

"You guys, you guys, seem to be too idle. Li Feng replied with a speechless smile, and then turned to look.

When he saw the visitor, Li Feng's eyes suddenly lit up, he didn't expect it to be an unexpected surprise, looking at the iconic big lips Li Feng thought to himself.

"Of course, I don't have the habit of declining invitations from beautiful women, thank you!" Li Feng stretched out his hand after getting up, and then pulled the beautiful woman in front of him into the center of the stage.
