After the "Batman" comic book was discussed, the next day Lester asked his assistant to hand over the contract drawn up by Fields to Warner Bros. executives.

The contract had the terms and shares they mentioned, and they were trading with each other, and if the Warner Bros. executives were unhappy with what was written in the contract, Emmanuel would negotiate a contract with them, with Fields on the side.

Lester's understanding and ideas for the script and the Batman comic book adaptation were shown to Warner Bros. executives by Peter Cooper.

The script and the "Batman" comic book movie passed through everyone's hands, looking at what Lester wrote, some people's eyes flashed with a fine light, and some people were a little disdainful.

After reading the script and ideas for the "Batman" comic book adaptation, the current president of Warner Bros. asked the others: "What do you think?" ”

Peter Cooper was the first to speak: "Mr. Leicester is very thoughtful, I think I can let Lesterore direct 'Batman' and agree to his investment. ”

The superhero manga is a live-action movie, and Warner Bros. has been going on all the time, and suddenly someone wants to put "Batman" on the big screen, which really surprised them.

They also read the script and ideas of "Batman", which are very in line with the original comics, and are different from the comics in some places, winning the approval of some people.

Especially the completeness of the script, I can imagine that this is a script that could have been directed.

Some people agree, and naturally some people oppose it, Jon Peters, who was ignored by Leicester himself, opposed Lester's director: "He's just a rookie director, why let him direct, we can find someone to direct completely." ”

"I don't know why you're targeting Mr. Lestrore. Peter Cooper frowned and reminded everyone present: "Mr. Leicester's status as a Hollywood director is indeed a newcomer, and he is also a potential director of commercial films, and his "Top Gun" is very successful, what reason is there that he can't direct, the script was written by him, I think he can direct "Batman". ”

After Peter Cooper said this, the minds of those present were in a hurry.

Those who were opposed at the same time as Jon Peters scoffed: "What about Chaplin!"

Peter Cooper looked at the person who said that mockingly: "The box office of "The Biography of Chaplin" is not good, but the reputation is very high, people have become popular with Robert Downey Jr., and the movies directed and produced have also become popular with Tom Cruise and George Clooney, etc., and have produced many blockbuster works, do you have them?"

"It's only three. ”

Jon Peters retorted;

Hearing this, Peter Cooper reminded everyone present again: "What about Flying Bird Films, you don't realize the potential of this company, look at the movies they made, except for "The Legend of Chaplin", which was not good at the box office, the rest were all great successes, and "Stuttering" won the Oscar for Best Live Action Short Film with an upset, and now the two movies in the cinema are moving towards a box office of over 100 million, and every film has a Lestrore. ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone present was a little taken aback, and after Peter Cooper's words, they now found out that Flying Bird Film and Television has produced a number of successful films with more than 100 million yuan in just three years.

Jon Peters' face was a little ugly for a moment, and looking at the faces of the others, he knew that many people in the audience had already agreed with Lestrore's idea and script.

Peter Cooper soon became well, Lester directed "Batman" and tried to lobby for the Warner Bros. executives.

After only two minutes, some opponents gave Lester the green light to write the script, and only to wait for the two companies to negotiate a successful split, and then they could start running the live-action version of "Batman" comic.

The CEO of Warner Bros. saw that more than half of the people gave the green light and knew what was going on, so he ordered: "The producers of "Batman" are Peter Cooper and Benjamin Melnick. ”

What happened in the reception room, the president of Warner Bros. also knew what was going on, and directly did not let Jon Peters continue to talk to Lester about the "Batman" comic book movie as a representative.

At the end of December at this time, the box office of "Beauty and the Beast" accumulated to 228956620 US dollars and went offline in North America.

The data of "Beauty and the Beast", which has a high reputation and high box office, was revealed by the media and set off a craze.

The dazzling high box office shocked some people in Hollywood, and the high box office performance of "Beauty and the Beast" made it a phenomenal film.

North America went offline, and "Beauty and the Beast" was also released overseas by Disney and Asuka Films.

At the same time, the merchandise of "Beauty and the Beast" is also selling out following the movie.

Michael Eisner, who was the CEO of Disney at the time, also did not expect "Beauty and the Beast" to be so successful, which made him feel that the cooperation with Lester was very correct, and also made the opposition in Disney disappear.

Unlike "Beauty and the Beast", "The Transformers Movie" barely earned back its original cost at the box office under Lester's deliberately changed publicity, which made Hasbro so scared not to think about making an animated movie of "Transformers", and Lester could still hear a sour voice on the phone when he was on the phone with Hasbro's CEO.

The high box office of "Beauty and the Beast" has caused heated discussions. But "Field Platoon" has more heated discussions, and in just half a month, the box office has already exceeded 100 million, becoming the weekly box office champion and the single-day box office champion, and its box office is rising faster than "Beauty and the Beast".

The high box office of the two movies from November to December made Asuka Film and Television get the attention of some people in Hollywood, making them pay attention to this film company.

The high box office of the two films, Lester, as a producer, also followed the crew of "Beauty and the Beast" and "Field Platoon" to run Oscar public relations promotion.

The Oscar PR promotion of "Beauty and the Beast" has the help of Disney, which is very easy, and Lester spent a lot of time on the side of "Field Platoon" to carry out Oscar PR promotion.

Lester sat in his office with a newspaper in his hand, which was all about Oscar PR promotion, and some headlines reported on the high box office performance of "Field Platoon".

At this time, Dimes took a piece of things and put it in front of Lester: "Boss, everything you need is here, and some information about Jon Peters and Peter Cooper has been found." ”

"Thankfully. Lester put down his newspaper and looked at the news and information that Dimes had gathered for Jon Peters and Peter Cooper.

As one of the important senior executives of Warner Bros., these two people naturally have media attention, and it is easy to gather some information with media attention.

Looking at the report in which the media reported different information about the two, Lester looked at the newspaper report with some surprise.

After reading this, Lester finally remembered some things, and also understood the personalities and styles of the two.
