Mark also gave face to McCopy, who said that this commercial director is outdated, and the three-board axe is not bright? This kind of commercial blockbuster is the mainstream film that Hollywood has swept the world, and soon Mai Copy has been one of the five major box office directors with "Transformers", which is one of the top box office directors.

In the original version, "Pearl Harbor" and "Escape from Clone Island" made Mai copy criticized, and many people blamed him, but the strength of this business director is a lice on the monk's head, obviously, willing to buy his account, there are many people, Paramount lent him money, let him buy the bankrupt D2, and reciprocated, Mai copy facilitated the cooperation between Paramount DreamWorks, and he also directed "Transformers" as he wished, becoming Paramount's cash cow.

Mark predicted that DreamWorks was finished, and they would be sold under Paramount at the end of this year for $1.6 billion, and MM could afford it for the same price, but he was not interested in DreamWorks, just Transformers.

DreamWorks perfectly interprets what it means to "do business well, but partners are hard to match." "They voted for Paramount first, then they voted for Universal, and then they voted for Disney when they were unhappy with Universal, where should Katzenberg be?

The film adaptation rights for "Transformers" and "Special Forces" were acquired by DreamWorks from the toy giant Hasbro, and at that time, Hasbro hoped that the DreamWorks adaptation would stimulate the sales of the toys, and they would also receive a share, which was a mutually beneficial thing.

But now that DreamWorks is in an economic crisis, there are rumors of selling itself around the world, and I don't know when the movie version will be launched.

David reached an agreement with Mai Copy, if he could let "Transformers" marry MM, as a thank you, "Transformers" special effects package to D2, and "Transformers" was directed by Mai Copy, so that Mai Copy would be full of energy, and Mark also knew that if he wanted to kidnap "Transformers" from DreamWorks, it would really not work without Makeover.

After receiving the benefits, he immediately approached David Geffin, the president of operations of DreamWorks.

David Geffen is a legend who never officially went to college, and he worked 17 jobs from ushers to mailrooms, where he lied, falsified his academic credentials, and stole mail, and when he applied for a mailroom job, he lied about having a degree from the University of California, Los Angeles.

The company hired him, and also wrote to UCLA to verify his academic qualifications, and the Los Angeles reply letter was intercepted by Geffen in the mailroom, and the letter was smoked with steam to replace the contents, if he had been caught with his education and emails, the job would have been gone, but Geffen was not caught, either he was lucky, or he knew what he was doing, and he was extremely careful.

Many years later, everyone knew about it, which showed that Geffen didn't care about his moral image in the eyes of others, he only cared about the essence of the matter, and did everything in the mailroom, including changing toilet paper and adding soap. But like a sponge, he desperately absorbed all the information he came across, he was a hardworking clerk and a diligent student, others were on vacation, he stayed in the office to work overtime, and soon he showed his edge like an awl in his pocket, and was hired as the youngest agent of William Morris.

Later, he established the famous Geffen Records, and star-studded names such as the Eagles, Bob Dylan, Tom Weitz and Guns N' Roses are closely associated with David Geffen, who sold the record company to Warner Records for 750 million yuan, and then joined DreamWorks, becoming one of the three giants of DreamWorks and a well-known figure among the richest people in the United States.

Among these super-rich people, there are all people who are very strong and very personal, and David Geffen is one of the celebrities, and he is different from others in that he dares to speak out.

These heavyweights in the United States have either developed the ability of Greenspan and said it for a long time, or they only focus on the general situation and never point to the goal, or like Donald Trump, they do everything they can on TV, but their opponents are all aimed at the weak who have no power to fight back.

David Geffen, on the other hand, believes in doing things his own way. "If you want to be successful, don't care too much about what others think of what you do. It seems to be a "famous saying" that everyone can say, but David Geffen proved it to his younger generations.

In addition to being one of the "DreamWorks Big Three" in Hollywood, David Geffen has a net worth of $5 billion, making him the richest person in the entertainment industry in the world, and the first super-rich to open up that he is gay.

He had dated women in his early years, but then he publicly declared himself gay, and he didn't care if business figures underestimated his business acumen because he was gay, and since he announced his sexual orientation, rumors have swirled about him, some say that he has an employee who specializes in finding and hosting "partners" for him, they are called "Geffen Baby", and some even say that he and Keanu Reeves are secretly married

In the "Top 50 Gay Celebrities Rights List" selected by the famous gay magazine "Out" in the United States, Geffen ranked first without suspense, and the famous.

Although he is gay, he is by no means the kind of classic image of a girl who speaks girlily, pinching her orchid fingers, and twisting her ass when walking. "If you're his enemy, you'd better kill yourself. "Because of "Escape from Clone Island", Mai Copy was cleaned up by this big guy.

Mai Bao said a few polite words, and then said: "I'm sorry for the incident of "Escape from Clone Island", which made the company lose a lot of money. ”

Only he, who knows the internal situation of DreamWorks, knows how big the problem of DreamWorks is, the three giants plus the major shareholder Paul, all have money, but they just can't do DreamWorks, they have money, but this money is hard-earned, watching so much money thrown into this bottomless pit, they are as uncomfortable as cutting meat, if it is not supported by DreamWorks animation, they want to die.

Geffen said angrily: "So don't think about the salary sharing, if you mention this, you can leave." ”

DreamWorks has lost so much in order to pull Mai Copy into the house, and now "Escape from Clone Island" has lost so badly, only about 30 million in three weeks, and the loss of Geffen's family has a lot less hair and deeper wrinkles, if it is calculated, they will have to pay more than 2 million to Mai Copy, but Mai Copy is no longer shameless, and he does not dare to pursue the more than 2 million, and he also knows that the other party will not give it.

Mai Bao Beiqiang smiled: "In order to apologize, I brought a business for DreamWorks, a business that is sure to make money without losing money." ”

Geffen said, "I'm listening!"

Mai Bao said: "There is a person who is stupid and has a lot of money, who has taken a fancy to the adaptation rights of "Transformers", and is willing to pay this amount to buy, you must know that you bought it for 10 million last year, and now you can make double it." He held out two fingers to indicate that it was twenty million.

A business of one or two hundred million is nothing to the big guy Geffen, and he asked, "Who is the buyer?"

"David Ellison, father and son are people who have a lot of money and have nowhere to spend it. "It's hard to impress Geffen if you don't label David as a stupid person with a lot of money, but David is also a representative of a well-known person in Hollywood who is stupid and has a lot of money, and many people are interested in pitting him again.

Geffen said: "I'm not interested! I'm very optimistic about the project of "Transformers", and I will invest in it soon. ”

"Are you sure? This is a big production with an investment of over 100 million yuan, and it's just a stupid toy movie, as Zemeckis's "The Polar Express" has shown that people don't love this kind of movie. ”

"'Transformers' is different, he has a huge number of fans, and this is a childhood memory for many people, and fans will pay for it," Geffen said. ”

"DreamWorks stopped all projects, I thought you were short of money, so I introduced you to make a quick buck, and if you weren't interested, forget it." ”

Geffen is weighing the gains and losses of this matter, for DreamWorks, he is dead, he is disheartened and just wants to get out of the pit, in the three huge meetings, Geffen and Katzenberg have the intention of ending the film department, only Spielberg is full of energy, he is the kind of person who can still climb to make movies, and with his momentum and status, when making movies is drought and flood income, 20 million salary plus share, or take that first, only Geffen, Katzenberg, and Paul, who have been throwing money into it, are impatient.

They authorized Spielberg to ask him to find a buyer, and if the price was right, they could talk, Lao Si was rising at Universal, he had a special affection for Universal, and he was hooking up with Universal.

At this stage of DreamWorks, the three giants have reached a consensus that they will not invest money in it, and it takes a lot of money to start the live-action version of "Transformers", and they don't have so much money on their accounts, according to their agreement with Hasbro, if the project is not launched within five years, the copyright will automatically return to Hasbro.

The future of "Transformers" is uncertain, the future of DreamWorks is also uncertain, and as one of the Big Three, he is not sure when he will be able to bring in funds and when he will be able to sell the company, and it would be very stupid to let Hasbro automatically take back the copyright.

DreamWorks' home is not good, such a big family, it all depends on him to eat and drink, Lao Si specializes in making his movies, and after more than five minutes of meetings, he wants to leave, and Katzenberg cares about his animated films, and he doesn't bother to ask about everything else.

Geffen had an idea and said, "Why don't we work together? We take a stake in the copyright, and we can only get a 30 percent share of the production." ”

"Including Hasbro's share?"

Geffen said, "Not included!"

Mai Bao said: "So you want nearly 40 percent, plus the theater one, accounting for 70 percent, people invest hundreds of millions, but you can only get less than 30 percent, how much does the box office have to pay back?"

Thank you, the happiest thing for the local tyrant book friends is that you are fatter than me. Thanks a lot. Commonwealth of Nations.
