879 Small meetings
"I think you just can't see me well, our side has just improved, and you have released such irresponsible news, this is to besiege me?" In MGM's conference room, Liu Anran came to take the lead. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"Andy, don't mess around, are we really going to make a fuss about something like this?" Dick? Cook said amusedly.
"Hmph, I think it's you. You Disney have been very active lately, and you're talking to DreamWorks, right? How long do you want to hide it from us? Liu Anran poured the red wine in the decanter on the side one by one and said.
"What do we have to hide, in fact, even if I don't say it, don't everyone know about it?" Dick? Cook shook his head helplessly.
"But I'm a little curious, why is it just the three of us, why didn't Warner come over? You're not going to work with them alone, are you? ”
"You two saw that, right? Dick is now shifting the subject. Liu Anran pursed his lips and said.
"Andy, don't worry, we at Fawkes won't be involved in the competition between you and Paramount anyway." Anderson said with a smile.
"We all over the world also prefer to watch the excitement." Smith chimed in.
"Hey, actually, I know, but this matter has become like this now, I'm afraid that you will join forces to clean me up." Liu Anran sighed and said.
"Now we Dream Media are too weak, where can we withstand your siege. Otherwise, one day suddenly you will join forces and not lend us the set, let us make the film, and we will be finished. ”
"Andy, don't you feel ashamed? Dream Media is still weak? "Dick? Cook said gloomily.
"Hehe, it's already weak. How many years have we been in existence, and how long have you all been established. What you have is comparable to our small company. Liu Anran said with a smile.
"So, in order to please you big bosses, we will strengthen cooperation in variety shows and TV series later. And now I can tell you that I have only one enemy, and that is Paramount. ”
"There will be competition between our companies, but it will be orderly competition. Only if everyone does a good job can we improve the box office performance in the North American market. ”
He's also telling the truth, he represents Dream Media, a new film and television group, Dick? Cook represents Disney, Anderson represents Fox, and Smith represents Universal. Now Warner, Columbia and Paramount are not here. Hollywood's Big Seven, now with four of them here, can already set a preliminary tone for many things.
"Next year, the number of films released by my companies will be reduced, and you can all make a difference." Liu Anran said with a smile again.
Anderson gave him a blank look, "I'm ashamed of you for saying that." Are you really going to release less next year? "Spider-Man 3" will be released, right? Will the two-episode "Pirates of the Caribbean 3" be released? "Spy 3" will be released, right? "National Treasure 2" will be released, right? And "Transformers", which you're about to work on right now, will also be released? ”
"It's cinematic, it's all series. Pixar's partnership with Disney has expired, and they will also release a new animated feature film, right? ”
"Anderson, why do you have so much resentment?" Liu Anran said with a smile.
"You also said that this is a series, so we will naturally continue to shoot according to the plan, right? Even if it were you, would you give it up? ”
"Hey, sometimes I'm so jealous of you guys for making the series so well. Tell me, do you regret buying the rights to "Fast and Furious"? Smith sighed and asked curiously.
"The box office of the third part is on the spot here, who told you not to come up with a fixed plot line when you were filming, so that we can shoot it down." Liu Anran shook his head and said.
"We can only bet on the future, let's see if the fourth part can pull the audience back to the theater. In fact, you can also see from our transaction that I have also paid a lot for the cooperation between you. ”
Everyone nodded, although the cooperation with Liu Anran was also taken advantage of by him, but everyone also gained something. At least the TV series screened by each company have a good reputation, which has brought a lot of advertising revenue to everyone. As for his own TV station, he doesn't have to take the slightest risk.
"Andy, let me ask you, aren't you going to launch a full-fledged television network in the future?" Dick? Cook asked curiously.
"Let's look at the situation, now I have such a big reaction to the acquisition of two theater chains, even if I will participate in the TV network in the future, at most it is a cable network. I don't want to be accused of being a spy in the future, and it's giving me a headache right now. ”
"We're very happy, and it's at least a little bit of a limit to your expansion." Dick? Cook said with a smile.
Liu Anran glanced at him angrily, seeing that he was so happy to eat lame.
"But even when we got into it, it was a long time later. In the past few years, we will still choose the platforms of the three of you for the broadcast of our dramas. Liu Anran spoke again.
"Don't worry about our company, the whole film market is not very prosperous now. And with the development of the Internet, I am afraid that the number of people who go into the theater to watch movies will gradually decrease in the future. ”
"Although the box office figures of movies in the past two years have not fluctuated very much, the box office of films has only been concentrated in a few movies." Dick? Cook nodded.
"Yes, in fact, no matter who it is, even if it's our company, we don't want to go on like this forever." Liu Anran said.
"Even if we can really dominate the box office in the past two years, without a sustainable development condition, then how different is the current Dream Media from the original MGM?"
"You also have to work hard to make more wonderful films, so that you can cultivate everyone's interest in going to the theater to watch the film together."
He could only do his best to persuade him. With his memory, he has converged a lot, and he didn't collect all the high-grossing films, otherwise there would be no matter about these film companies.
But he didn't dare, the gun shot the first bird, and you can poke your head once in a while. If you pull your neck and let people see it, everyone will point their guns at you.
