840 The Union collapses

readx;?“ That's for sure, that's for sure! Gawain waved his fist excitedly, stood up and hugged Ian, and then kissed Ian on the cheek fiercely, and the defenseless Ian was caught off guard and rolled his eyes speechlessly, "Gawain Strello!" But Gawain didn't care at all, if it was brute force alone, Ian could only bow to the upper hand. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Looking at Lance, who was gloating opposite, Ian said lightly, "Gawain, isn't it Lance who you should really be thankful for?" Our funds have multiplied several times in the hands of Lance, otherwise relying on your hard-earned money, the Malibu mansion would not be able to afford it at all. ”

"Ian!" Without waiting for the words to be finished, Lance sensed that something was wrong, but he tried to push away the chair and fled, the first push was not pushed, but after the second push, it was too late, Gawain turned around with a single step, Lance had no idea how Gawain did it, from the other side of the table to this side so quickly. So, Lance simply gave up resistance and sat down in place, Gawain hugged Lance tightly and kissed him the cheek.

Lance rolled his eyes and said calmly, "There's one Theo left, what do you do?" ”

Theo raised his head and looked at Gawain coldly, firmly suppressing Gawain just by looking at him, Gawain scratched his head, "Hehe, it's just a joke, a joke." With that, Gawain stepped back again and again, and sat back in his place. Then Theo turned his gaze to Ian again, looking at it coldly, Ian coughed lightly, swallowed all the words that were about to move, and quickly waved his hand, "I have no opinion, no." As if he was worried that this was not enough, he took the initiative to change the topic, "Regarding the Marvel Universe, Theo told me just now, and I rearranged my thoughts. ”

Lance's meaningful look made Ian's eyes widen, as if threatening, "Shut up!" "I think things are divided into two steps, the first step is the 'Iron Man' project, don't they want you to write the script?" You just finish the script first, and then talk to them about cooperation; The second step is to bring up the idea of the Marvel Universe, just like the Warner Bros. negotiations, but this time we took the initiative and we refused to accept 'no' as an answer. ”

Lance nodded, he was willing to make concessions and compromises in this negotiation. However, this compromise is conditional, the first phase of the Marvel Universe cooperation is the ultimate goal, and the core of the script creation of "Iron Man" is controlled by Marvel Entertainment's creative committee. However, this negotiation process is a game between the two sides, and it is necessary to pay attention to skills and strategies.

"If all goes well, when are you going to start shooting? How much budget do you need? Ian returned to the topic he was most familiar with. This wasn't just a diversion of the subject, it was something Ian had to understand - because Chaos Pictures now had a lot of liquidity on its books.

"Don't worry," Lance smiled and waved his hand, although he didn't have a detailed understanding of the company's accounts, he also knew that Chaos Pictures was overdrawing the future every step of the way, and the plan had to be meticulous and thoughtful, "Even if I got the story outline, I had to focus on the post-production of 'Fury Road' first, which was the priority." After that, I will enter the script creation, and then communicate and cooperate with them, and then 'Fury Road' will be released and promoted...... If you want to finalize the whole project, at least after the end of the summer vacation. ”

Although the script of "Iron Man" is not so difficult and obscure, it is still not easy to create, it takes about two to three weeks if it is fast, and one to two months if it is slow, not to mention, the script is not completed after Lance is created, and the discussion and game with the creative committee is the difficult part.

"As for filming, it will be October at the earliest, and if there is a problem with the actor selection, it is possible to push it to the end of the year." The "Iron Man" project was only heard last night, and now it is equivalent to starting from scratch, and Lance does not have a clear concept, everything is just speculation, but it is certain that "Iron Man" is originally a commercial movie, and the preparation process is impossible without a few months, not to mention that the film has also maintained negotiations for the entire Marvel Universe, and the progress is bound to not be too fast. Of course, once the cooperation agreement is reached, the pace of film preparation will be accelerated.

"Cost?" Ian re-emphasized this critical issue.

"100 million to 150 million." Lance gave an estimate, and so did the original "Fury Road".

After so many trials, Ian had long been accustomed to it, and just nodded lightly, "I see." "At the end of the summer, it means that he has at least five months to prepare, which is an acceptable pace.

As he spoke, Theo's mobile phone on the table vibrate, Theo picked up the phone and looked at the caller ID, picked up the phone, and then walked in the direction of the hall, "Good morning, this is Theo." ”

Ian once again turned his gaze to the newspaper and casually asked, "Would you like to read today's newspaper?" A playful smile appeared on his face, "All the media are fried." ”

Gawain sat next to him and nodded vigorously, his face filled with incomparable excitement, "It's just a mess in the world." That group of shameless white/fart/shares were scolded miserably, and even the Journalists' Association was criticized for not being able to do it, haha, they finally know what it feels like now. ”

The 78th edition of the Oscars came to an end last night, but the aftermath of the turmoil has only just begun. Today's major news has locked its eyes on the Oscars, lifting the academy to the arena of criticism, and the scene is simply not too lively.

"Record of Shame: The first best film in 65 years to win only two statuettes."

"Whose victory is the victory of the 'crash'? The ego/high/tide of white conservative forces? Hollywood's self-burial of an intricate disease? Or is it a moral benchmark that collapses in the face of racist blame? ”

'Ugly!' Brokeback Mountain's loss, 'Fruit Hard Candy' miss, the ugliest event in Oscar history. ”

"'Brokeback Mountain' became a sacrificial sheep for conservative and prejudiced forces, 'Fruit Hard Candy' became a sacrificial sheep for elite alliances, and 'Crash' became the winner of the power game - but is this victory really worth celebrating?"

"Upset! Shocking! 'Crash' topped the Oscars – but even the Academy judges themselves were ashamed of the result. ”

"Shame on the academy judges: we chose a work that we didn't even like ourselves."

"Lancelot Strello made history by being the first person to win both screenwriter and actor at the same gala, but missing out on Best Director for the third time in a row, was he William Wheeler or Alfred Hitchcock?"

"Hollywood-style tragedy: he wins his love but loses their future; He won the world, but he lost the little golden man - 'Brokeback Mountain'. ”

'Tragedy!' The crash knocked out two statuettes, but the biggest winner of the night was 'Brokeback Mountain' - three statuettes. Or is there no winner? ”

"How did 'Crash' defeat 'Brokeback Mountain' and 'Fruit Hard Candy' to reach the top is a question mark in everyone's mind."

"A Hollywood self-inflicted play? From the Golden Globes to the Oscars, the shock hides behind the incredible. ”

……

Almost all the media are amazed by this result, because there are so many focuses, they don't even know where to start, a front-page headline is no longer enough, one breaking point after another, one slot after another, all the reporters have rolled up their sleeves, and the entertainment page is full of creativity, as if each media is comparing with each other to see who has more profound criticism and who has sharper complaints. Just by collecting the newspapers of the mainstream media, you can clearly see the current bad situation of the college, even if it is too slight.

Even the Los Angeles Times, which is the home base of the college, unceremoniously described last night's awards ceremony as "a disaster", and pointed out in its comments that the so-called "college public relations" has lost its true character under the influence of interests and has become a carrier of power struggle and benefit distribution.

I don't know what kind of perspective the latest issue of "Variety" and "Hollywood Reporter" will report.

Lance chuckled and shook his head, declining Ian's invitation, "I can imagine that. "The result of this Oscar is definitely not something that Lance can make alone, this is caused by all parties holding each other back and entanglement with each other, it is conceivable that there will be some turmoil in the next period of time, whether it is within the academy or within Hollywood." Believe me, the next time I fall into trouble, the first to fall into the well is the same media. ”

For example, the summer results of "Fury Road".

"Lance, looking for your number." Theo only stayed in the hall for a moment, then walked back and handed over his phone. Lance looked at him with a stunned expression, "Me? "Why did you call Theo when you were looking for his number?

Theo whispered, "Ron Meyer." The CEO of Universal Pictures, "I'll let him talk to you directly about the joint project." "A few simple keywords, Lance understands. Long should have been talking to Theo about a new project collaboration - Theo is now representing Chaos Pictures, but Theo directly turns the phone on.

Just, Universal Pictures? This is the second Big Six to contact him after Paramount, and less than twelve hours after the Oscars ended, they expressed their position in such a positive manner. In other words, the Hollywood Lockdown Coalition has completely collapsed.

Although Paramount, Twentieth Century Fox, and Universal were not directly involved in the blockade before, their wait-and-see attitude itself is a kind of support. Now, Paramount and Universal are the first to break the shackles and extend an olive branch to Reims, the first time since last September. No matter what the project is, the hardest times have passed.

Lance took the phone, "Good morning, it's Lance talking." (To be continued.) )
