Chapter 817: The era of Hollywood movies is coming to an end

γ€Žγ€The novel platform is hot and new,

Your path to the gods takes off from ''.

[

In the next few decades, directors and stars from all over the world will come one after another.

"Old Mr. Meyer, you can see it clearly, but I don't know what you can do?"

Thinking that this Meyer came here, he didn't come here to chat, let alone admire Chen Jiayi's rush from the United States to China. This old man in his 90s must have other plans. Yes, since he has pointed out the shortcomings of the current Tang Dynasty film and television base, Chen Jiayi has no reason not to ask him a word.

"Haha, that's pretty simple."

Meyer laughed.

Then, he said softly, "If there are several heavyweight film and television companies to join the Tang Dynasty Film and Television Base, I think the process of Tang Dynasty Film and Television surpassing Hollywood will be much faster." Even, it doesn't take many years for him to surpass Hollywood in all aspects. ”

"Looks like you're right."

However, Chen Jiayi really wants to say something, which is also nonsense.

Chen Jiayi is bidding for film and television companies from the world, that is, he wants the world's first-class film and television companies to join, but the world's first-class film and television companies cannot be compared with Tang Dynasty Film and Television. However, they also have great power in their own countries. For example, among the eight major Hollywood film and television companies, Chen Jiayi most hopes that they will give up Hollywood and transfer to Tang Dynasty Film and Television. But how could they give up? At most, I have paid enough attention to the cooperation with you when I come to shoot here, and it is whimsical to want to enter in all directions.

Seeing that Chen Jiayi didn't guess what he meant, Meyer was straightforward and said, "If I say that there is a Hollywood super film and television company that wants to settle in the Tang Dynasty Film and Television Base, what do you think?" ”

"Hollywood."

In a sentence of Hollywood film and television companies, Chen Jiayi seemed a little excited.

Speaking of which, Chen Jiayi still attaches more importance to Hollywood film and television companies.

Of course, this emphasis is nothing more than a play on Hollywood. After all, the power of Tang Dynasty film and television is now greater than that of any Hollywood film and television company. However, Hollywood is Hollywood after all, and he still has countless powers. If you can use Hollywood studios for your own use, it is the best strategy.

It's just that although Tang Dynasty Film and Television launched this strategy, no Hollywood film and television company has this intention. Now that Meyer said it, Chen Jiayi was excited. Could it be that this Hollywood movie mogul, he is here to make an introduction?

Introducing a Hollywood super film and television company to the Tang Dynasty film and television base?

"Is this film and television one of the eight major Hollywood film and television companies?"

"That's right."

"Which one is that?"

"Haha, Chen, you are really smart, you are confused for a while."

Meyer laughed, and then said to Chen Jiayi, "I came here today, can't you guess?" ”

After saying a word, Chen Jiayi broke out in countless cold sweats.

"It's him."

Why didn't you think about him?

Just now, Chen Jiayi also decided to think of the eight major Hollywood film and television companies, but he never thought that it would be MGM Pictures. You know, MGM Pictures sometimes he is a symbol of Hollywood. Even, without MGM, there would be no Hollywood.

This is not an exaggeration.

Under the leadership of MGM, Hollywood dominates the world and shows its style.

At the same time, the Hollywood film and television base under the leadership of MGM is maturing step by step. Therefore, even if Chen Jia thinks of the world, Twentieth Century Fox, Warner Bros., and Columbia...... Didn't think of MGM either. …,

After a while, Chen Jiayi was sure that Meyer was not faking.

"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry, I really didn't think of it just now."

Chen Jiayi gave a small apology.

"It's okay."

Meyer was friendly and didn't care.

In fact, a few months ago, Meyer didn't expect that he would do such a strategy.

Perhaps, this is providence.

"Great, we welcome MGM to the board."

Chen Jia stood up excitedly and was about to shake hands with Meyer.

"Thank you."

"I think we'll have a great time working together. But ......"

"But what?"

"We have one condition, though."

"On what terms?"

Chen Jiayi was so happy that MGM could come.

was so happy that Chen Jiayi even wanted MGM to open any conditions.

"We need the Tang Dynasty Film and Television Base to unconditionally contribute computer special effects technology."

I came to see Chen Jiayi today, and Meyer is for this.

If it weren't for this computer special effect, Meyer would not have come to China, let alone made such a strategy.

"Unconditionally?"

Chen Jiayi's heart tightened.

For this condition, Chen Jiayi did not agree. Everyone knows that the most attractive thing about the Tang Dynasty film and television base is the computer special effects technology. The technology also includes 3D holographic projection, and if any film and television company has such technical help, their computer will definitely be upgraded by N notches immediately.

Unconditional openness is impossible.

It's just that this MGM Film and Television Company is too important.

Of course, it's not because of how much strength MGM Pictures has, in fact, he has now begun to decline. However, MGM's impact is undoubtedly enormous. Moreover, if MGM joins the Tang Dynasty Film and Television Base, then it will be the most exciting news in the world.

Affected by this, the Tang Dynasty Film and Television Base will definitely be able to become a global film and television hegemon in a very short period of time.

It seems like this is a real dilemma.

"You can think about it, I'll be in China for three days, and after three days, you can get back to me."

It seemed that he had seen through Chen Jiayi's thoughts, Meyer did not force Chen Jiayi, but took retreat as advance, shook hands with Chen Jiayi amicably, and left the Tang Dynasty Group. And after Meyer left, Chen Jiayi was still thinking about the cooperation with MGM Pictures.

Is it a promise?

Or don't say yes?

promised that the computer special effects of their own country would be provided to them free of charge. Of course, it is not necessarily that Chen Jiayi attaches great importance to such technology. Moreover, in the future development, Chen Jiayi also believes that Tang Dynasty Company will definitely create more advanced technology. However, in any case, so far, such technology is more comfortable to hold in your hands.

Only, if not promised.

Then, the Tang Dynasty film and television base will lose an opportunity to quickly launch the world.

For this reason, for a while, Chen Jiayi really didn't have much to do.

Moreover, Chen Jiayi thought about this for three days, and after three days of consideration, Chen Jiayi still didn't think about it.

Until, when Meyer's call came, Chen Jiayi suddenly became enlightened.

"My friend, have you thought about it?"

With a friendly voice, Meyer greeted Chen Jiayi.

"I'm sorry, three days may be too short, I didn't think of it."

Chen Jiayi shook his head and sighed.

"Chen, you know, you have to make a decision in everything, if you hesitate, you will lose the best opportunity." …,

"Sorry, thanks for the reminder. If I had to make a decision, then I would say that we could not accede to your request. ”

After saying this sentence, Chen Jiayi immediately felt relaxed.

"Why, can you give a reason?"

Meyer was a little angry, but he still endured it and waited for Chen Jiayi's explanation.

"There's no reason why we can't share this kind of technology for free, but we can provide services for a fee."

Chen Jiayi didn't explain much.

"Okay, okay, young man, you know, you lost an opportunity, lost an opportunity to make the Tang Dynasty film and television base rise. I really regret why I came to China in person. ”

"If that's the case, then I'm really sorry, I'm sorry to let you run for nothing."

"Don't be sorry, I don't accept, I don't accept an apology from a stupid person."

With anger, Meyer had already roared and vented to Chen Jiayi fiercely.

However, the more Meyer trembled, the more calm Chen Jiayi became.

"Well, young man, you're going to pay for your refusal today."

With that, Meyer was about to hang up the phone. It's just that at this time, Chen Jiayi said, "Mr. Meyer, please stop your acting, if you really want to cooperate with us, we can talk again." ”

"Acting?"

"Who do you say is acting?"

"Weren't you acting just now?"

Chen Jiayi said slowly.

"God, are you crazy?"

"Mr. Meyer, I'm not crazy. If I'm crazy, I won't refuse to cooperate, but promise. ”

Chen Jiayi is not only not slow, but explains.

"Since you came to the Tang Dynasty Group in person three days ago, you have only one purpose, and that is to take the opportunity to raise the price. In other words, take advantage of the weaknesses of the Tang Dynasty's film and television base to find a good bargaining chip for yourself. At the same time, your roar just now also wants us to regret it...... Isn't it? ”

"Maybe you're right, but it's okay for us to raise the price. You know, we at MGM just need your computer special effects technology for free, not your technology. Such cooperation, I think, is quite reasonable. After all, if we join the Tang Dynasty Film and Television Base, it will bring you incomparable benefits, and we should get a little benefit. It's just a pity that I never expected that you would refuse...... What can I say at this time. ”

"Haha, Mr. Meyer, you're still acting. If you're stupid, you've really been deceived. However, one of your previous actions betrayed you. ”

"What a move."

"Simple, you're calling."

"I called?"

"Yes, it's you who called, not me."

One is to call Chen Jiayi, and the other is to call Chen Jiayi, the meaning is completely different.

"What does this prove?"

"This proves that although we need your joining. However, at the same time, you MGM need the help of Tang Dynasty Film and Television even more. ”

After the words were spoken, Meyer's head was silent for a long time.

Yes, just now, Meyer didn't wait for Chen Jia to call over, and he called in person, which already proved his impatience.

Subsequently, under the influence of impatience, Chen Jiayi combined the current situation of MGM. After comprehensive analysis, Chen Jiayi finally knew why Meyer came to China in person and met him in person. There is no reason for this, one but one but another, it already means that Meyer wants to save MGM through Tang Dynasty film and television. …,

If not, it is really as the European and American film and television media say.

Once MGM was gone, there were only two paths left for MGM.

Either go bankrupt or be acquired.

Because of this, in the absence of any way out, MGM also gave up the success of Hollywood, and wanted to come to China to find the help of Tang Dynasty film and television. Perhaps, this time, it will be their hope for a comeback.

"No wonder the Tang Dynasty Group can be so brilliant."

Finally, after a while, Meyer said.

"Thank you."

"But, as you said, we all need each other and cooperate with each other. However, I have to tell you that we can't pay for computer effects technology for the time being. ”

Although the computer special effects of Tang Dynasty film and television are bullish, it is not easy to obtain.

At least, within the scope of his paid offering, this amount of compensation is also a huge amount.

Perhaps, this number is not a huge number for other popular film and television companies. Even if it is larger, they can recover it at the computer box office through such technological strength. However, now MGM, he no longer has much financial strength.

We can see this from the previous years.

Most of MGM's large-scale movies are all in cooperation with multiple group companies, and this is why they are launched.

It's just that after this sentence was said, Chen Jiayi was overjoyed.

This already means that Meyer has made a step backwards.

So, Chen Jiayi said very generously, "It doesn't matter, maybe, we can take a cut from the box office." I believe that the former MGM will explode his power again. ”

The method of taking a cut is the most powerful method.

After all, it doesn't take a little bit of capital.

If your film fails, then you won't lose much selfishness.

Of course, if your movie is a big hit, then it will be extremely painful for you to pay this share.

However, the method of rake, for MGM now, is definitely the best method.

As long as MGM's movie is a success, then, no matter how much he takes, he can make MGM work again. When the time comes, as long as the media promotes it again, the mighty MGM will be reborn. At that time, rolling investments and others will also come in step by step.

"Well, I guess, we can take it."

Now, does Meyer have any reason to refuse?

The answer is no.

Yes and no.

If Meyer refuses, then wait for bankruptcy or be bought by someone else.

A phone call, and in this way, a generation of Hollywood kings entered the arms of Tang Dynasty film and television.

On the same day, when the news spread, the world shook.

MGM, one of the eight major Hollywood film and television companies, officially joined the Tang Dynasty Film and Television Base. At the same time, MGM is accompanied by a number of other international superstars. Some experts have pointed out that the power of computer special effects has already flashed. It is believed that in addition to MGM, there will be more super film and television bases stationed in it in the future. Of course, these experts also said that with the entry of MGM Film and Television Company, Tang Dynasty Film and Television will hit the international market more violently.

Of course, as soon as such news came out, the happiest thing was the domestic audience.

"Holy, is this true?"

There are some people who can't believe their eyes.

Because, the Hollywood blockbusters they have always liked before, now, there are actually Hollywood companies entering China. Moreover, this company is still the most prestigious Hollywood super film and television company. In the future, the movies they make will not be produced by Hollywood, but by the Tang Dynasty and China. …,

What kind of realm this is, no one can say.

However, this does not prevent them from thinking that this news is a fork. Perhaps, it will not take many years in the future, the world will only have the Tang Dynasty film and television base, and there will be no more Hollywood. Even if there is, it is only a single existence, and it will not return to its former glory.

It's just that a few families are happy and a few are sad. In addition to the excitement and excitement of the domestic media and fans, the American media expressed boundless anger at this information. The Hollywood newspaper said, "We really can't believe that MGM, the former movie tycoon, the former movie king, and the former creator of the Hollywood system, actually went to China, to a film and television base that had just been launched and built by only one company." Could it be that MGM never considered the feelings of American fans?

Such an act is almost like treason.

Yes, it is treason.

Everyone knows that Hollywood is the representative of the United States, and MGM is a legend of Hollywood.

However, the legend belonging to the United States actually ran into the arms of the Chinese, what is this not treason?

MGM has done something that almost no one in Hollywood will forgive him.

Because, he abandoned his homeland, abandoned his people. In addition to this, there are some fans who have spontaneously formed an anti-MGM league. They hope that all movie lovers will not watch MGM's movies in the future, as a punishment for MGM's betrayal of Hollywood.

It's just the United States.

As for countries other than the United States, there is some excitement of watching dramas.

Although they were shocked that MGM betrayed Hollywood and switched to Tang Dynasty Film and Television, they said they didn't care. That is, it does not support Hollywood, and at the same time, it does not support Tang Dynasty film and television. Some experts are sympathetic, arguing that it was not MGM who betrayed Hollywood, but that Hollywood abandoned MGM. In the decades of MGM's decline, we can't help but ask, why hasn't Hollywood helped MGM through the crisis?

If Hollywood had helped MGM even a little, perhaps, MGM would not have made such a move.

Do they like to go to a strange place?

This was completely forced to go between bankruptcy and acquisition, and MGM could only grasp the last straw.

At the same time, some experts said.

Perhaps, when MGM came to China, he has already announced a fact to us.

Hollywood's movie era is coming to an end.

As for the future film era, whether it will belong to the Tang Dynasty base, we will wait and see. (To be continued.)
