Sitting at her desk, Daisy held a pen in one hand and her chin in the other, thinking about how to write the letter.

In the past time, she has written at least 30 letters, and after mailing them to CAA's mailbox, there has been no response, and this kind of waiting for nothing is not good.

Daisy looked up and saw a poster on the opposite wall with a line on it - For dear Daisy!

Behind this line, there is also a flower-style English signature - Murphy Stanton.

Seeing this poster, Daisy couldn't help but think of the director she saw at the premiere, but unfortunately there were too many people at that time, and there was no opportunity to communicate at all.

"Hey......" Daisy let out a long sigh.

She found herself more adored than Murphy Stanton, and how could she express that emotion?

Suddenly, Daisy's mind popped up with a lot of images, and she quickly shook her head, which was crazy.

Looking down, he looked at the letter in front of him, and the pen in Daisy's hand fell on it.

"I wrote so many letters before and didn't reply, I don't know if you can see this, I am your strong supporter, and I am the leader of your discussion group on the IMDB layout, since watching "Chainsaw", I have a lot of ideas and want to communicate with you, if you still shoot this type of film, the ways of killing people that I think of may help you......"

Daisy found the letter and sealed the letter, and wrote the CAA's mailbox address on the envelope, looked at the sun outside the window to the west, and went out with her backpack on her back, ready to mail the letter.

At the same time, the Cadillac driven by Murphy was parked in a parking lot near the back entrance of the Emirates Rock Theater in Hollywood.

After getting out of the car and going to the back door of the theater and showing the invitation to the security guards guarding the room, Murphy walked in, turned a few corners, and through a long passage, found the vestibule of the Chiefstone Theater.

"Hello, Director Stanton."

One of the staff members who was guarding here obviously knew him, and Murphy nodded at him and asked, "Is Miss Feith here?" ”

"Here we are." There were a lot of people in the theater, and the staff pointed to a crowd, "Miss Feith is socializing over there." ”

"Thank you."

Murphy looked in the direction he was pointing, found the figure of Carla Fyes, and immediately walked over there, and before he could get closer, Kara Firth saw her, whispered to the people around her, and walked over.

"Why are you here so late?" She asked, leading Murphy to another place, "This way." ”

"There's something happening on Miramax's side," Murphy was a little helpless, "and he didn't come out of Burbank until three o'clock in the afternoon." ”

Carla Firth pointed to a few people in front of her, "The top brass of Twentieth Century Fox and the people of Marvel Comics are here, and I'll introduce you to it." ”

Walking around there, while a few people were finished talking about a topic, Carla Firth interjected, "Hey, guys. ”

"Hello, Kara." Several of them nodded to Kara Firth and Murphy.

"Introducing a director to you." Carla Firth looked at Murphy and said, "This is my good friend, director Murphy Stanton." ”

The men immediately looked over, apparently knowing who Murphy was.

Carla Firth introduced Murphy again, "This is Harry Allens, CEO of Twentieth Century Fox. ”

This is a white man in his fifties with a bald head, with some Jewish characteristics in his appearance.

Carla Firth continued, "This is Dave Scola, director of the Twentieth Century Fox filmmaking department. ”

This is a middle-aged man with eyes and a major internal rival for Carla Firth in the future.

Murphy shook hands with the two men one by one, and the two were also polite on the surface, especially Harry Allens, CEO of Twentieth Century Fox, who also said after the usual greetings, "Fox and Stanton Studios have been working together, and I hope the cooperation will continue." ”

Fox Searchlight and Stanton Studio's "Saw 2" has been released, because it was too busy, Murphy didn't pay too much attention, the box office of the film was okay, North America got nearly 50 million US dollars, and the income from video tape and TV broadcast rights is also quite expensive, which is expected to bring more than five million dollars of net profit to Stanton Studios.

The third part of the follow-up was also logically put on the agenda by the two companies.

"Our cooperation will continue." Murphy said with a smile.

Harry Allens also laughed, "When, Murphy, can you direct a film for Twentieth Century Fox?" ”

As soon as these words came out, Dave Scola next to him stared at him and couldn't help but glance at Kara Firth beside Murphy.

Kara Firth didn't seem to see it, just laughing.

Murphy nodded slightly, "I'm sure there's going to be a chance." ”

After greeting Harry Allens, Carla Firth introduced two other people to Murphy, starting with a skinny old man with brown glasses, "This is Mr. Stan Lee from Marvel Comics, a legend in the American comic world. ”

He then introduced a man next to him who was clearly Jewish, "This is Avi Arad, the CEO of Marvel Comics." ”

Murphy came here for the premiere, more because he was invited by Carla Fez, and he didn't expect to meet two key characters from the Marvel comics here, but it wasn't surprising to think that "X-Men" came from Marvel Pictures.

Marvel comics are not what they used to be, and the blockbusters of "Spider-Man" and "X-Men" have become the focus of the United States.

Later, under the introduction of Carla Firth, he met Hugh Jackman, Ian McKellen and Oscar-winning actress Halle Berry and others, and chatted with Brian Singer, a personality director, and met Bright Ratner, who has been confirmed to direct the third part of "X-Men".

Although they only talked for a short time, Murphy could see that the entire "X-Men" crew seemed to be a little repulsive to the new director.

"I don't know why?" Carla Firth was also strange when he accompanied Murphy away, "Brian Singh didn't look down on him either." ”

Murphy couldn't figure it out, "It's good for you." ”

Carla Firth shook her head and changed the subject, "I've communicated with Harry that if there's a suitable adaptation or director, Twentieth Century Fox could consider splitting the X-Men series. ”

Speaking of which, Kara Firth saw Murphy looking into a corner on the left, where Avi Arad of the Marvel Comics was whispering something to someone.

"You want to talk to him?" She immediately guessed Murphy's intentions.

Murphy didn't hide it, nodded and said, "Seeing him, I have a new idea." ”

The people next to Avi Arad walked away at this point, and Murphy waved his hand at Carla Firth and walked over alone.

"Hi, Mr. Arad."

He offered to say hello, and Avi-Arad smiled at his side, "Hello, Director Stanton." ”

"Can you talk?" Murphy wasn't going to go around in circles, it was very difficult, "about comics and movies. ”

Avi Arad was stunned, but nodded and said, "Of course." ”

Because he squatted in prison in the first year, he was basically in a state of no money for the next two years, and now he has a small net worth, but he missed the best opportunity, and Murphy came over with the idea of trying.

After all, once he succeeds, he earns it, and if he fails, he will not have more losses except for wasting a little saliva.

"My studio wants to ask your company for the rights to film adaptations of some comic book heroes."

Hearing Murphy's words, Avi Aradd's eyes immediately appeared a little vigilant, "I don't know which comics you're interested in?" ”

"Hmm......" Murphy said with a deliberate groan, "Iron Man, Captain America, Black Widow. Women, Thor, and Daredevil. ”

"Sorry, the rights to Daredevil are in the hands of Twentieth Century Fox." Avi Arad first politely said, and then said, "The movie rights of other superheroes, Marvel Comics are not sold!" ”

This is said in such a categorical manner that there seems to be no room for negotiation at all.

Murphy frowned, not completely dead, "What if it's just Iron Man?" The conditions are easy to say. ”

Avi Arad shook his head without hesitation, "Marvel Comics has made too many mistakes in terms of movie copyrights, and we will not continue to make mistakes." ”

Seeing what else Murphy wanted to say, Avi Arad raised his hand to stop it, "Marvel Comics will not talk to any company about the transfer of movie copyrights." ”

Murphy nodded, stopped talking, and watched as Avi Arad walked away from him.

Of course, he knows that as long as the price is high enough, Marvel Comics can definitely talk about the transfer of film copyrights, but the question is what price does it take to impress the current Marvel?

Such a price is simply not something he can afford.

I don't know when, Cara Firth walked over, "How's the talk?" ”

"It doesn't work," Murphy shook his head, "the Marvel comics of the nineties aren't the Marvel comics of the nineties anymore. ”

"yes,"

Although she has only been in Twentieth Century Fox for a few days, Carla Firth already has a preliminary understanding of a lot of work, "Since the success of the first X-Men, they have asked for the rights to be bought back more than once. There are also Paramount Pictures' "Fantastic Four" and Sony Columbia's "Spider-Man", which are also targets they want to buy. ”

"A word of advice for you," Murphy said, "don't give up on the X-Men no matter what." ”

He suddenly changed the subject, "I heard Avi Arad say that the copyright of "Daredevil" is also in the hands of Twentieth Century Fox? ”

"It was supposed to be made into a film," said Kara Firth, "but when the company was put to the review stage, Ben Affleck, who was leading the project, suddenly withdrew, causing the project to be shut down, and now the company is squeezed for liquidity, and it should not be restarted for the time being." Are you interested in Daredevil? ”

"I just wanted to see if I could raise chips to make a deal with Marvel Comics." Speaking of which, Murphy pointed to the entrance of the theater, "The screening is about to start, let's go inside." ”

With the official release of X-Men 2, Sin City is set to make a big splash this weekend. (To be continued.) )
