Chapter 715: Fox Solicitation
Gu Xiaofan woke up, the sky was just slightly bright, and the mood was also excellent, he came to the Black Feather Studio early in the morning, and saw Liu Shishi coming to the company earlier than him for the first time, staying by the window, looking blankly at the street scene of Los Angeles. [No pop-up novel network]
Not far from the opposite side is Warner's building, and Liu Shishi looks at it with a smile and seems to be very intoxicated.
Gu Xiaofan walked to Liu Shishi's side, and was about to pat her on the shoulder to scare her, but saw Liu Shishi suddenly turn around and grimace at him: "Wow." It scared him aback.
"How do you know I'm in." Gu Xiaofan rolled his eyes helplessly.
Liu Shishi giggled: "I have listened to your footsteps for so many years, even if you are tiptoeing, I can hear it." Then he turned to Gu Xiaofan and smiled excitedly:
"Gu Xiaoqing, this time we not only have no problem filming "Game of Thrones" and "The Dark Knight", but also the acquisition of Warner is nine out of ten."
Gu Xiaofan was a little surprised: "How do you say it?" "Even if they win the Oscar and enter Warner, the negotiations with Warner are still going on, and even if the other party agrees that they are solely responsible for Game of Thrones, it is not certain, and the acquisition of Warner is a distant goal......
After all, the acquisition of a large group is far from being as simple as setting up a studio, and there are too many variables.
Liu Shishi looked at him and said with a smile: "I've been with Lily for the past few days, she has already told me what News Corp means, they News Corp can be jointly acquired with us, and when the time comes, we will both hold it together, and we can freely shoot the works we want to make, and they can merge Warner's forces and become Hollywood's No. 1 film and television group, which is very beneficial to both of us, Gu Xiaoqing~~ You want to thank me this time, if I didn't use Lily as an intermediary, we want to shoot and control Warner, It's probably not so easy to make the movie you want to make. ”
So that's the case, did Lily Murdoch reveal the wind over?
Gu Xiaofan didn't look surprised, just patted Liu Shishi's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Sister Shi, how can it be so simple, I think that Lily is fooling you, I'm afraid that she said that they control Warner, and we are only a minority shareholder, right?" Don't you have to listen to them yet? When the time comes, what can we do if they repent? ”
Liu Shishi frowned and said: "Don't underestimate whether I'm good or not, don't always think I'm so stupid, I can see that News Corp attaches great importance to us, although the specific conditions Lily hasn't said yet, but I believe they won't treat us badly, you tell me honestly, if you follow the original plan, how sure are you that you can complete the works you want to make?" Will Game of Thrones make it through? ”
Gu Xiaofan thought about it seriously for a while, and said honestly: "It's about 7 or 8 percent sure, I'm afraid it's still so easy to get it on Abel's side, the most important shareholders of Warner are willing to trust me, and people's hearts are the most difficult to win over." ”
The real difficulty is not the production rights of "Game of Thrones" and "The Dark Knight", after all, the scripts of these two dramas are in his hands, and the difficult thing is the acquisition next year.
If everything goes well, the money from China will come over next year, and money is not a problem, the problem is that there will always be some diehards among those old people in Warner, and I am afraid that it is not the interests that can be moved.
They will doubt whether they, as Chinese, can lead Warner forward.
"So, if we work with News Corp., we're 100% sure that if Warner can't get through Game of Thrones, we'll be able to air it on FOX TV." Liu Shishi said.
Saying that, Gu Xiaofan looked at Liu Shishi and said, "Sister Shi, it seems that you really want to cooperate with News Corporation?" ”
Liu Shishi said angrily: "Of course it's serious, you didn't see that after we won the Oscar, there was no media to interview us, if it wasn't for Lily and Edward mobilizing Fox's resources to help us, we don't know how embarrassing it was." We don't want to get rich, we just want to play the role we want to play freely......
Gu Xiaofan, do you seriously want to become a film giant? ”
Gu Xiaofan shook his head: "I have enough money now that I can put it in the pool as a swimming pool, and it doesn't make sense for me to have more......
"To be honest, if I can shoot whatever I like, I can act whatever I like, and I don't bother to care about so many things...... It's just that I don't trust others at all, especially the Americans, that we still rely on ourselves more than others to dominate us. ”
Liu Shishi patted him on the chest and said with a smile: "You like to be wary of others, I think Lily and Edward are different from those people at Warner, they have a Chinese mother, how can they not discriminate against us." ”
Gu Xiaofan smiled bitterly: "I guess, Sister Shi, is it that Lily has poured a fan soup with you in the past few days, and completely persuaded you to cooperate with them...... Don't blame me for pouring cold water on your head, although this rich British girl is polite to us on the surface, but I always feel that she is no less arrogant than Abel and those people in her heart, Jews are certainly the highest in the American elite, but these Anglo-Saxons are not a good thing, in their hearts, we can just use chess pieces, and we will definitely not be like He Tiejun when we are partners. ”
This time, Liu Shishi was not angry, but just put her arm around Gu Xiaofan's shoulders and said with a smile:
"This is your self-indulgence, Lily doesn't know how much she values us, and said that we will be good sisters in the future, invite me to his villa in the UK, and it is not necessary to meet Prince William of the United Kingdom."
Gu Xiaofan secretly shouted in his heart, this Lily is amazing, she has already figured out Liu Shishi's temper, she doesn't negotiate conditions with her, she only has feelings with her, Liu Shishi has always eaten this set the most...... However, it seems that News Corp. does cooperate sincerely, and if you can contact them, it will leave a way back for yourself.
Originally, he wanted to say something, but seeing the radiant look on Liu Shishi's face, Gu Xiaofan couldn't help it, but couldn't help asking, "Do you really trust this Lily so much." ”
"Of course." Liu Shishi nodded seriously:
"Lily was the first friend I made in the United States, you don't know, although I have been studying English in the United States for so long, I always feel out of place here, not like an American, and I don't have the confidence to play English roles well, until I was with Lily, she talked to me about everything, and introduced me to a lot of friends, I felt that I was in this circle...... She's really going to introduce me to "X-Men......"
Gu Xiaofan was stunned when he heard this, and finally understood why Liu Shishi was so excited, you must know that Zhou Yanfa, Chen Long, and Wu Yusen have worked hard in Hollywood for so long, although they have also made a lot of movies, but they have never had any friends in Hollywood circles.
Chinese actors have always been outside this circle, just like Chinatown, staying together by themselves, incompatible with mainstream society, and now Liu Shishi feels that she can finally fit in, and the kind of equal and free coexistence with the elites in Hollywood is what she longs for......
