If he didn't have an insider, he was afraid that he would be frightened by his old fox, and he knew that this was the other party's means to raise the price, so he asked, "Is it?

If it was a real deal, Geffen would never reveal his cards, but it was a way to raise the price, and it was a different matter, he said: "The other party pays 28 million dollars, which is 8 million more than you, 8 million? Do you think we will still choose you?"

He's revealing his hole cards, which means that he doesn't have to talk about it below that price.

Mai Bian, who was also an old bird, heard the meaning and said, "David, if we also pay the same price, will you give us priority?"

Geffen pretended to be embarrassed and said, "I promised them, unless you bid higher." ”

This is both a and a chaste archway.

"We're giving twenty-nine million, a million more, and you're having enough reason to turn them down." ”

Geffen's shrewd fellow said, "No, it will have to be at least two million before I dare to refuse what I have promised, my face will not be so cheap as one million, and two million is a reasonable price." ”

This is the number that Mark and David expected, and they have authorized Mai Copy to act at the opportunity, but Mai Copy still pretended to make a phone call, and finally said painfully: "Thirty million, it can't be higher." ”

Geffen was secretly happy and said: "The deal is closed, but we have to collect cash and receive it at one time, and I will be responsible for the legal department to draw up the contract immediately and strive to complete it within three days." ”

Mai Bao also pretended to say, "You blocked my proposal to pay in installments." ”

Geffen smiled proudly, the copyright of "Transformers", starting with Hasbro for 10 million in 04 years, earned 20 million in just one year, which is an extremely cost-effective sale.

Lao Si was strongly opposed, he didn't want to go to the new owner empty-handed, but Geffen preferred to make a fortune first, and only said that the two of them could not convince each other.

What turned things around was that Lao Si caught up with his old club Universal, and Ron Meyer was very interested in DreamWorks, and he strongly built the board of directors of Universals to support their plan, and just as the three giants of DreamWorks were rejoicing, Universal's offer was like a plate of cold water poured on their heads, and they were only willing to pay $900 million.

This offer was extremely disappointing to the three giants of DreamWorks, who were full of frustration in their hearts, and it became a top priority to make a sum of money to continue running the company, and now even Lao Si said that if the other party offered 30 million, it would be a condition he could not refuse.

This makes the transaction go smoothly.

Winning the film adaptation rights of "Transformers" for 30 million set a new record and caused a sensation in Hollywood, but it is not surprising to think that the person who handled it was David Ellison, a notoriously wronged man.

Mark praised David for winning the rights to adapt "Transformers" and thought it was a great achievement.

David was a little embarrassed and said: "Your aesthetic point of view is so different, the whole Hollywood thinks that I am wronged and the money is stupid." ”

Mark poured him a glass of wine and said, "Time will tell, you can write down the people who say that you are stupid and you will beat them in the mouth with facts in three years, right?"

David said happily, "I've asked my assistant to do this." ”

Mark said: "Intensify negotiations with Mr. Jobs, for Pixar, we are determined to win. ”

David said: "Uncle Steve wants to cooperate with Paramount more, but the attraction of our investment of one billion Pingguo is too great, and he is difficult to give up, and now he has submitted it to the board of directors for discussion, and they will give us an explanation." ”

Mark and David touched their glasses and said, "What I want is not to confess, but to join." ”

David said: "Don't worry, we have the big killer move of injecting capital into Pingguo, if he rejects us, we also reject them, and we will break up in two, he will take care of this." ”

Pingguo is a big fat meat, super fat meat, David actually threatened Joe's gang leader with this, this is really ridiculous? Mark thinks there is nothing more ridiculous than this, this is a super investment, there is nothing more cost-effective than this, this product actually claims to be an angel investor.

Mark said: "This is something that cannot be lost, you have to take Pixar and the peace fruit, send lobbyists, lobby directors, don't be afraid to spend money, I just want the result, don't ask about the process." ”

Seeing that Mark was so serious, David restrained his smile and said: "Send lobbyists, lobby directors, don't be afraid to spend money, as long as the result, I have written it down, and I will implement it before I get off work today." ”

Mark patted him on the shoulder and said, "Young man, do a good job, I am optimistic about you, you are the one who does great things." ”

David drank the wine in one gulp and left in a hurry.

Giselle got Mark's consent and immediately arranged a trip for Zhou Wei, and she decided to go to rural Maryland for a vacation, which is the place where Mark filmed "The Wedding Guest" called Potts.

Because "Wedding Aoke" is a super hit, this place has also become famous in one fell swoop and has become a tourist attraction, this summer, the number of foreign tourists entering here is five times that of last year, and the mansion where Mark and they are filming has become a must-visit place for tourists, if it is not for Mark's banner, Gisele will not be able to rent this place.

Liz disagreed: "The news says there could be a hurricane. ”

Giselle said: "There will be itself, and it will land in Florida, and it will affect Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, and Maryland at most, and there will be rain at most, and the green woods, green grasslands, and the scenery in the rain will be so beautiful, not to mention that with Mark, what will be the problem?"

Giselle was not full of expectations for this week, and asked Mark to spend two days with her, which was not easy, and they made arrangements in a hurry, they chartered a small plane, and after Mark got off work at 17:30 on Friday, they immediately rushed to the airport, and they would try to spend the night there.

And Mark is also really busy, while sitting in the car while reading documents, reviewing financial data, two days in the country, said it was a vacation, he also brought a lot of documents, mainly "Iron Man" drama and financial budget plans, if there is no problem, they will start filming in October, that is, two months after Mark got married.

Giselle was very happy that Mark could come, and he was very happy that Mark had brought a few assistants to come, knowing what was going on, and pretending not to know, that Mark was running a large company and running a big project, and it was necessary to use every minute reasonably.

Mark had just left Los Angeles, and Aaron, the paparazzi who had been staring at him, began to exert his strength, and after more than half a year of deployment, he thought he was well prepared to make Mark stink.

Mark has completed the triple jump in the past six months and has become a media tycoon, Aaron is not afraid, this is the country of rice, a society governed by the rule of law, and a place of freedom of speech, the more famous Mark is, the more sensational it is, he can turn over in one fell swoop and become the king of entertainment.

At 16:50 local time in Los Angeles, a man named Jerry Bixby, accompanied by a lawyer, went to the Los Angeles County District Court and took Mark to court, claiming in his complaint that the famous director Mark Wang's debut film, "This Man Is From Earth," violated him

Father, well-known screenwriter and writer Jerome Bixby, demanded a public apology and $30 million in compensation for economic losses.

Since they returned a large amount of evidence attached to it, the court found that the reasons and evidence were sufficient and accepted the case.

Jerry Bixby was interviewed by Aaron, a well-known entertainment journalist, immediately after leaving the courthouse, and the news made the ABC entertainment section during the evening news and became a sensation in Hollywood.

This is because Mark has been too popular in the past few years, making movies that are super hits, doing business and acquiring two giant companies, many people can't reach the peak in their lifetime, he did it easily, of course, this is because their background is very strong, and they can play the trick of the white wolf with empty gloves.

Mark quickly became popular with "This Man is from Earth", this work cost only 20,000 yuan, and the box office of more than 30 million in North Rice entered the top 50 of the year, young Mark showed people his amazing talent, IMBD is as high as 8.4 points, which is not possible for many blockbusters, it is not an exaggeration to call it the uncrowned king, Roger, the king of film critics, has always believed that this is Mark's best work.

"This Man is from Earth" is amazing, and it also makes Hollywood recognize Mark, if it is plagiarism, then everything is another matter.

Jerry presented all kinds of evidence one by one in front of reporters, and he said: "Mark Wang adapted his late father's work without any authorization, even without his own knowledge, which constitutes an infringement, which is a shameful crime." ”

When asked about the fact that he presented this evidence to the news media and contradicted the law, he said: "This is a way for the weak to protect themselves, hoping that under the supervision of public opinion, they can get back what they deserve." ”

In the evening, the hottest topic in the newspapers, TV, and the Internet was the discussion about Mark's plagiarism and plagiarism, and on the next day, that is, on Saturday, this matter was completely hot, and many interested people checked the information and found that what Jerry said was true, Mark's "This Man is from Earth" was indeed plagiarism, and his movie version and DVD version did not even mention this, so blatant plagiarism, public opinion was in an uproar.

Mark is strong, but the media in the United States is not dead, this country has a royal law, and the radical media have begun to criticize and accuse Mark, saying that he is a shameless literati and scum in the cultural world.

The relatively conservative media tried to interview Mark to see what he could explain, but no media interviewed him, called his office, and said that he was going on vacation and would not be back until next week, which made people doubt that he was really on vacation, or did he have a ghost in his heart, avoiding the limelight, and said that such a big thing happened, even if he had to rush back to the crisis public relations on vacation.

However, MM Group strongly expressed that Baker, the undersecretary of the press department of MM's legal department, publicly told the media: "MM will sue Jerry Bixby for defamation and smear, and claim 30 million." ”

MM was always strong, and Baker said: "Our indictment will go to court on Monday, Jerry Bickers better be prepared with the money or you'll die." ”

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