"How? Going to MGM? By the way, this is Danny? Boyle and Cillian? Murphy has just talked about joining MGM. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info "Liu Anran looked at Spielberg and Tom? Hanks said.
"It's okay, nothing happens in the afternoon anyway. The promotion of the film is not at its busiest, so let's go around MGM with you. Spielberg nodded.
MGM will certainly be different in the future, and will be on the right track again to become a company focused on film production, rather than a company that focuses on gambling and tourism, supplemented by film and television production.
Whether it's Spielberg or Tom? Hanks, in his heart, hopes that he will be able to have the opportunity to cooperate with Liu Anran in the future.
Spielberg knew that Liu Anran had a lot of high-quality copyrights in his hands, which was the prototype of future movies, and Tom? Hanks's feelings are a little more complicated.
It can be said that there are very few of these veteran movie stars who have not had contact with MGM, and many of them are held up by MGM's films. As an old actor like them, I am a little entangled in my heart when I see MGM come to such a situation.
It's just that although they are worth a lot of money now, if they push MGM to fight a beautiful turnaround, they don't have that strength.
They don't care which studio has a bigger share in Hollywood. They are more concerned about the film itself.
He and Spielberg have been friends for many years, and the cooperation between the two is very tacit, so naturally I have heard Spielberg talk about how large the inventory of scripts on Liu Anran's side is. This is not just in terms of quantity, but also in quality. If nothing else, the filming rights of "Transformers", which Spielberg has been obsessed with, have already reflected certain problems.
It's not far away, and the small convoy stops at the door of the MGM building and doesn't attract much attention. But when you see Spielberg and Tom getting out of the car? When Hanks was around, the flashes on the various cameras on the side of the road kept flashing one after another.
The two have been famous in Hollywood for a long time, and both journalists and tourists are no strangers to them. And there are more reporters squatting here, after all, MGM has just changed hands, and they also want to get more news.
"Very good, it seems that I will invite you more next time, so that those reporters will keep filming me." After walking inside, Liu Anran said with a smile.
"You don't want the two of us to help you MGM, do you?" Spielberg said with a wry smile.
"No, no, no, there's a lot of news from MGM right now. The quality of the films we will launch next is the best publicity for MGM, otherwise the more publicity we have now, the more the film will not be well received in the future, and I will only lose money. Liu Anran shook his head and said.
"What are you doing behind this reception desk?" Spielberg asked, gesturing to the people who were working on it.
"Didn't I set a goal for Double 200? The real-time MGM stock price will be marked later, and the Oscars won. I want everyone to be able to see the changes in MGM as soon as they come to MGM. I also want to tell everyone that what I say is never empty words. Liu Anran said with a smile.
Spielberg nodded, and he couldn't comment on Liu Anran's approach. It's a double-edged sword, if MGM's stock price gets lower and lower, and the number on the award doesn't grow, it's not a good thing for MGM.
"Why do I always think that these employees in your company seem to be afraid of you? Are you going to give MGM a big bloodbath? "Tom in the elevator? Hanks asked his own question.
"I'm not going to make a massive layoff. The main reason is that some people are used to the way MGM works in the past and are used to messing around. I will give them a chance if they do not behave well, and I will not raise idlers here. Liu Anran shrugged his shoulders and said.
"MGM now has more than 1,000 employees, and I've given Edward 300 people. Even if I give them a high severance pay, I will remove these people from the company. ”
He didn't want to impose a high-pressure policy on his company, which would keep employees in a constant state of urgency, and he preferred the company's office environment to be similar to Blizzard's.
Now these employees of MGM are all talents accumulated by MGM over the years. Even if one is fired, Liu Anran will feel distressed.
But habit is powerful. Many people have become accustomed to living one day at a time, and their previous motivation to work hard is gone, and they will not come up with a better work attitude if they do not force their sense of urgency out.
"Huh? Hello everyone. Andy, why are you here again? At this time, George happened to pass by the elevator door, and when he saw the group of people coming out, he asked curiously.
"My company, I can't come and see it yet?" Liu Anran glanced at him and then looked at Wen Ziren, "You first take Boyle and Murphy to sign an agreement, and then officially sign the agreement after they show it to the lawyer." ”
"Andy, it's really good, I believe that MGM will get better and better in the future." After visiting Liu Anran's office, Spielberg said with a smile.
"In the future, MGM will focus on commercial films and art films, while Dream Media will focus on horror films and comedy films, and will continue to expand MGM's distribution channels." Liu Anran took out his cigar and distributed it to everyone.
"Actually, I've always felt that the collapse of MGM kicked off the downturn in the Hollywood entertainment industry, and even if the rest of the companies have more films, they will be worse in terms of the proportion of high-quality films."
"Huaxia will become a market that all film companies will strive for in the future. I have an innate advantage, I already have the right to introduce it in our country, and I will introduce more films to my country for release in the future. You can think about it, and in the future, you can send us the films you make from DreamWorks to distribute. ”
"We will also invest in the construction of new studios, and if we work together, we can provide you with convenient conditions."
He is going to lay out the encirclement and suppression of Paramount in advance, DreamWorks has a good relationship with Paramount, and it was acquired by Viacom in 05, which helped Paramount breathe a sigh of relief.
He wouldn't let them live so comfortably, and without the support of DreamWorks, how could it be so easy for Paramount to live comfortably. Don't look at the fact that even if there was no most lucrative animation division when DreamWorks was acquired, the films produced by DreamWorks also made a fortune for Ramon.
