Lance was not surprised by Barry Meyer's appearance; To be honest, Lance was a little surprised to not see Robert Iger tonight, these big companies can't be indifferent to the rise of "Berserk Road", not to mention that "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" is nominally a work created by Lance, and it is common sense to attend. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Thanks for the compliment." In response to Barry's greeting from the needle, Lance stepped forward and said with a smile, "Mr. Meyer has been very busy this summer, and it is my honor to be able to take the time to come to the party." "The busier you are, the more empty-handed. Lance's return shot was undisguised.

Barry's face remained unchanged, as if he didn't hear the deep meaning of Lance's words, "Aren't you too?" After the busy publicity, I thought you would enjoy the holiday, but look at ......" Barry took his champagne glass, turned slightly, and gestured to the audience, "We're here." ”

"I must admit that I'm already starting to regret having this party, and tomorrow I'll have to deal with a large crowd of hangover guests, which is enough for me to experience a hangover headache too." Since Barry was going to talk about parties, Lance was going to say parties, and his light-hearted and teasing tone still seemed polite and fulfilled his duties as a host.

"Really? I thought you'd enjoy a good alcohol relaxation tonight, but now it seems like you've not had much at all. Barry raised his glass, "By the way, forget to say, excellent champagne, the soft taste of Pinomony from the Marne Valley in France is always intoxicating." Lance nodded politely in thanks, Barry looked back at the noisy crowd in the room, his eyes fell on Lang not far away, paused lightly, and then said with a smile, "I brought a bottle of Islay Islay Single Wheat Scotland today, how about it, would you like to find a place to try it with me?" ”

It's an elegant custom to bring a good bottle of wine to a guest, but it's not for parties. Barry's act of bringing wine as a gift already has some significance. Now that he has offered to invite Lance to share the wine, it is clear that Barry is showing goodwill - and not in the past, he is showing sincerity.

Say no, or say yes?

Lance chuckled twice, "Of course. "Please come with me, Islay Single-Wheat Scotland, it deserves a better place." Lance calmly led the way, and as he passed the bar, Barry took out the whiskey he had brought with him from the inside, and followed Lance out of the main building of the villa, through the garden, to the annex to the west.

Walking into the building, it is a chic space, some similar to a studio like a studio, with a touch of warmth and comfort in the idleness, and can also be used as a lounge for afternoon tea, with a set of dark red sofas in the center, around a low table wrapped in gold and copper, revealing a serene retro atmosphere. Raise your head and look through the glass on the inside of the room to see the flower room greenhouse behind you, and you can see some faint green leaves and flowers through the moonlight.

In an instant, the noise and noise of the main building were isolated, as if you had arrived in a paradise.

"Sorry, there's a bit of a mess here." Lance showed the decency and politeness of a host, they haven't figured out how to use this building yet, and it is temporarily used as Gawain's tactics room, so the desk next to it is scattered with the information of each team in the new season, and this room is also connected to the underground wine cellar, so Lance brought Barry here.

"Hehe, on the contrary, I like it more than the noise there." Lance took out the wine glass from the wine cabinet, and then took out the tartar and ice cubes from the Xiaoice box, Barry carefully looked at the surrounding furnishings, but unfortunately, he didn't see anything related to Lance's work, "After all, getting older, parties don't seem to be my business anymore." ”

"The party is part of Vanity Fair, and believe me, even after thirty years, you can still walk away from the party with ease." Lance walked over to the couch and sat down diagonally across from Barry.

"Please, allow me to serve you." Barry picked up the sparkling wine bottle in his hand and gestured politely, Lance was naturally respectful rather than obedient, so he leaned back on the back of the sofa chair, watching Barry start to open the wine bottle familiarly, feel the aroma of the wine, and finally pour the wine, as if he was not rusty with his skills because of his perennial high position.

"No, I don't use tartar." Seeing Barry's movements, Lance waved his hand, and then Barry added two ice cubes before handing the wine glass to Lance. "So, did you walk into the cinema to watch 'Superman Returns'?"

Lance paused slightly as he picked up his glass, a little surprised that Barry went straight in, but that's Barry's brilliance, isn't it? Lance raised an eyebrow and said bluntly, "No, I'm not interested. "There was no politeness.

"That's good, I don't recommend you watch it." Barry's response was very intriguing, he smiled lightly, "Of course, if you have watched it, I would expect you to give some opinions, we don't know what happened, after all, those film critics don't seem to be rejecting ......" Speaking of this, Barry paused for a moment, as if waiting for Lance to interject, but he saw that Lance had no intention of opening, and he didn't mind, and continued, "I can't help but start to wonder, what if you adopt your script?" What if you were the director? ”

"Hehe, I don't think we'll ever get a chance to know." Lance said lightly, taking a sip, the cold alcohol burned down his throat, and the rich aroma burst out, making people want to exclaim, "Wow, this is really good wine!" ”

"My wine merchant can breathe a sigh of relief." Barry raised his glass and saluted, tilted his head and took a big sip, and also tapped his chin slightly, making a sound of admiration, "So, are you going to find out?" With a thoughtless sentence, Lance raised his eyebrows, revealing a puzzled look, "'Superman returns', what will happen if you are at the helm." Or rather, the Superman series. ”

is worthy of being at the helm of Warner Bros., and there is no flaw in his complacent demeanor, as if he and Lance have never had a dispute over "Superman Returns", let alone as if Warner Bros. has never tried to suppress Chaos Pictures; But at the same time, he put himself in a low-profile position in a measured manner, and did not apologize, but it was better than an apology, and his sincere intention to cooperate expressed his attitude.

"I thought you'd put it on hold for a while." Lance did not hide his surprise, how serious the loss of "Superman Returns" was, outsiders naturally had no way of knowing, but the loss of more than 150 million was certain, and even Warner Bros. did not dare to act rashly. This was the case in the previous life, the Superman series was shelved for a full seven years, if it weren't for the fact that the Marvel Universe was too profitable and hot-eyed, it is estimated that this time would have been stretched even longer.

Barry spread his hands, "I think so too. Again, Barry showed weakness in front of Lance and frankly admitted the loss of "Superman Returns", and since the meeting today, Barry's soft apology and friendly attitude in his words have been throughout, "But if you're willing to take over, that's a different story." Barry carefully examined Lance's expression, and then showed a big smile, "Don't be in a hurry to refuse, how about listening to my proposal?" ”

Barry probably knows more than anyone about "Iron Man", and since Lance can build the DC Universe, he can also build the Marvel Universe. Barry isn't sure what stage of Marvel Studios and Chaos Studios' cooperation has reached, but at least it's certain that "Iron Man" will be the first step in a good cooperation between the two parties, so now that Barry intends to dig into the wall, he must show enough sincerity.

"A billion dollars, five productions, and the first part of the entire universe." Sure enough, it's Warner Bros., the opening is a billion, not only wealthy, but also decisive, especially in the past summer file, which made Warner Bros. lose a lot, but Barry is so bold, a big hand is a big project of one billion, this decision is far more determined than Sony Pictures and Paramount, only Disney can compare, "However, Batman still has two works, we hope that these works can connect with each other and promote each other, but these five works are fully responsible for you, In addition to Superman, what superhero to choose, what style to build, and what team to complete the production......" At this point, Barry raised the wine glass in his hand and saluted Lance, "It's up to you to decide. ”

In other words, Warner Bros. handed over the general producer of the DC Universe to Lance.

Just a year ago, this was the collaboration that Lance had dreamed of, and he had worked so hard to achieve it, and now Barry was in front of Lance with such a breeze that with a nod he would become the most powerful producer in all of Hollywood - it would not be an exaggeration to say that he had the ability to control one-third of Hollywood's behind-the-scenes forces, imagine the producers, agents, publicists, and media people involved in a movie...... Now it's not just one movie, but five, five works with an investment of one billion, this is definitely not a project that a small company with no background like Chaos Pictures can initiate, only a top big company like Warner Bros. has such courage, and truly interprets the realistic effect of "pulling a hair and moving the whole body".

That supreme authority is at your fingertips.

Things change so quickly that it's hard to predict, and people often say that a jiazi in the mountains has been in the world for a thousand years. But the reality is that even in the real world, the changes in a year are all the same. This is Hollywood, or more accurately, the world led by Wall Street – anything is possible if there is enough interest. (To be continued.) )
