Chapter 39 The film cooperation contract was successfully signed
Although Disney has become a fire and water between the two factions of the son-in-law and the direct family line, but even if it is so, it is an internal matter of the family, and Miller will not be stupid enough to do things behind his back, after all, if he really wants to do this, the board of directors will expose himself as long as someone investigates, and when the time comes, a person who can even sell the interests of Disney, which board of directors chooses to support him?
Obviously, there is definitely not, so for the current Miller, he would rather wait for Walter to reveal his handle so that he can suppress and squeeze him out in a formal way, rather than do anything in film production, after all, doing so is tantamount to self-defeating, and he will not be so desperate to install Walter in the live-action production department for Roy.
As for how to suppress and drive out Walter in a formal way, it is very simple, that is the Achilles heel of Walter's class-style box office sharing. If the film made by Disney and Concord does not have 10 million at the annual box office, Miller believes that he will not need to come forward at all, and the shareholders of the board of directors will also hold Walter accountable for this matter.
After all, if the box office of the movie does not have 10 million, after deducting the theater share and the cost of film production, publicity and distribution, and then sharing it with the Hong Kong company, Disney will obviously make a lot less money, although it is unlikely that he will lose money, but it is obvious that if he hands over this result, the only thing he can wait for is for the board of directors to forcibly remove Walter from the position of deputy director of the live-action film production department.
Of course, these problems in Disney, Walter can't understand the rules for a while, just like he doesn't understand what Roy said to him that Miller doesn't dare to touch him for the time being, he only knows that Roy and Miller fought for a period in real history, until the eighties, Roy successfully fought for power and drove Miller out of Disney completely, so no matter what, he only needs to follow Roy's footsteps at Disney now.
The next day, in the Disney building, in Walter's slightly deserted office, with the three people sitting in the hands of the pen brush, three English names were left on the two agreements.
"Congratulations, Bruce, Raymond, and have a great time working together. ”
"Thank you, Walter, and I wish us a great time working together. ”
"It was a pleasure to work with. ”
exchanged documents with each other, Walter shook hands with Bruce Lee and Zou Wenhuai and said goodbye, at this moment his heart was finally determined, unless history changes, then he relied on "Enter the Dragon" to play his own results this time It should be said that it is already stable.
After that, it was a simple chat, Walter took a group of people who came with Bruce Lee and visited the Disney headquarters in detail, which can be regarded as a kind of courtesy greeting, of course, in fact, I don't know how to send the two of them away, so I can't just drive people away, right?
As for the cocktail party to celebrate the cooperation, it is also avoidable, because the initial investment production budget is only a small investment film of one million US dollars, such a small investment cost, and a drinking party, it is estimated that the directors of Disney will make a fuss again, accusing Walter of spending money indiscriminately, so it is better to honestly send Bruce Lee and his party to leave after visiting Disney.
It stands to reason that Bruce Lee and Zou Wenhuai, as the masterminds of the negotiation of Concord, should have come to visit Disney, which has the most sincere intention to cooperate. After all, after Warner Bros. brought Bruce Lee and his party to the United States, they have been receiving them like presidents, taking care of a few people with special cars, bodyguards and various perfect treatments, which naturally made Bruce Lee and his party dare not do anything that excessively irritates Warner Bros.
And it is precisely because of this that Bruce Lee and Zou Wenhuai will contact other Hollywood film companies in private, but they will not openly visit the inside of other film companies, probably out of a kind of embarrassing face problem for Warner Bros.
Of course, now that the facts have come true, Bruce Lee and Zou Wenhuai have been successfully intercepted by Walter, so they are naturally no longer afraid that Warner Bros. will know their whereabouts.
As for Walter and Bruce Lee, one of the parties to this matter, naturally they will not have any sense of responsibility for this matter, compared to Walter, everyone is in competition, and if you can't grab it, you can only give it to others.
And Bruce Lee's words are no problem, he has always held a grudge against Warner Bros. when filming "The Silent Flute", but unfortunately there has been no chance of revenge. This time, if he didn't still want to be famous in Hollywood, he probably wouldn't have accepted Warner Bros.'s invitation, and now he can completely dump Warner Bros. once, naturally he doesn't feel guilty at all, but after working with Walter, the producer who is with him, the smile on his face has never stopped, and he is obviously very happy.
However, it was not without accidents, during the tour, Walter found that Bruce Lee had always had a bad face for Zou Wenhuai, except for the forced smile he showed when he was present, he didn't see Bruce Lee and Zou Wenhuai say a few words.
It seems that he is still angry with Zou Wenhuai about the events of that night, and Walter can't help but think that Bruce Lee's friends in later generations said that Bruce Lee has a hot temper, low emotional intelligence, and it is really good to be easy to turn against him. Think about it, Zou Wenhuai is his Bole, even if he is wrong, he shouldn't treat his benefactor like this, after all, he is just a martial arts idiot who is too self-conscious, I hope I don't have too many conflicts with him, otherwise I will be embarrassed......
As Zou Wenhua, Bruce Lee and his entourage left, Walter, who returned to the office, sat on his office chair, looked at the cooperation agreement on the desk, and couldn't help but smile.
The first step of his rebirth has been steady, and the rest is to work hard to manage everything in "Enter the Dragon", after all, this is something that the Disney board of directors has been paying attention to for quite some time in the future, and he can't help but pay attention to it.
If Walter wants to succeed in becoming the board of directors with his ability in the future, instead of simply being a shareholder, he will not have enough popularity, and now if he does not even have outstanding performance, it is obviously difficult to convince all shareholders, especially Roy behind him, so this time he must do a good job.
Lying on his desk, Walter struggled to think of his next step, and soon found that he seemed to be missing something to go to Hong Kong, such as a suitable assistant.
It seems that he has to find someone to help, otherwise after going to Hong Kong, he may be pitted by Zou Wenhua's old fox. Thinking of what Zou Wenhuai did when he dug Bruce Lee, he didn't dare to guarantee that he had no business ability at all, and he would be deceived by the old fox......
