"It is rumored that Big Dream will intervene in the Fast and Furious series? Universal Pictures was noncommittal in the face of inquiries, but was impressed by President Adam. Ferguson Day & Big Dream President Cesare. Vijeri had a meal talk, and a source claimed that although "Fast and Furious 4" has been filmed, Big Dream will still be involved in its distribution and publicity efforts, and "Fast and Furious 5" will be a movie with a big dream flavor, leading the company to launch three extraordinary films Cesare. Vijri and Jennifer. The Jefferson fiancée will bring earth-shaking changes to the series, and the first thing to change will be the scale of investment in the film series. The 85 million production fee for "Fast and Furious 4" seems to have expired, and the next racing series will likely reach a production scale of 150 million to 200 million, which is another grand plan of Big Dream in the next few years. So far, they have three big-budget special effects films in the pipeline: "Avatar", "OZ", and "Codename Shero", and in addition, just a week ago, there was another scandal in the industry that caused a public reaction - it was rumored that Paramount was interested in talking to Tom. If the two rumors come true, then in the next 3 years, Big Dream will have five major productions released, whether it is DreamWorks, Lionsgate or Legendary Pictures, which won the Warner contract in 2005, and Marvel, which is brewing the concept of "The Avengers", has been left behind before this achievement. Will Big Dream be the fastest-rising film company in the next 10 years? When will this film company, which holds many high-quality rights, be completely acquired? Will it go to Disney, or will Kongscut, News Corp or Viacom buy it? This series of questions seems to be answered only by time. ”

With a flick of the mouse, the page was closed. Iger picked up his mug and took a sip of herbal tea, and quietly clicked on the news video that had been buffered before - in the somewhat humble studio, the hostess in a tweed suit and a little fat continued, "Conte, thank you for the news, and now let's focus on the next news: the founder of Paramount's parent company, Viacom, and media mogul Summer. Lei Shidong confirmed that Paramount may reboot the "Mission Impossible" series in the near future, Jim, what do you think of this news? ”

"I'm more concerned about whether Da Meng is involved," the male guest pushed his glasses and made a joke humorously, which attracted a burst of knowing laughter, and then became serious. "The "Mission Impossible" series, like the "Fast and Furious" series chosen by Big Dream, is a series that is in an awkward period, and it can even be said that the future is uncertain, and it is very likely that there will be no sequel for a long time. It's not just because of some disputes between actors and companies, in terms of subject matter, the spy theme and the racing theme have indeed been unfavored by the market in recent years, although the "007" and "Spy Shadow" series are quite well received, but the box office is relatively limited, and the racing theme has been quite unpopular, mainly relying on advertising placement and peripheral sales to make profits, if Da Meng chooses these two movies as their production direction, they will take a big risk, but this is very consistent with their consistent style, Da Meng likes to challenge unpopular themes very much, Or an outdated subject that seems to have exhausted its potential, throughout the company's production history, few projects have been favored before the project is established, and even the superhero theme, which has become popular recently, has made the film itself full of suspense because of the point of female dominance. ”

"But Jennifer seems to be such a character, she has always been very bold in the choice of films," the female anchor continued, "This is also very consistent with the style of the legendary Mr. Lei Shidong, do you think it is because of the courageous choice of Big Dream that Mr. Lei Shidong praised Jennifer in the interview 'will be the leading figure in Hollywood in the next twenty years'?" ”

"Yes, yes, very good point," Jim nodded, "That's what Lei Shidong himself famously said, 'To succeed, you have to live a dangerous life, as long as this danger can be reasonably accepted, As long as the rewards far outweigh the risks', we can see that the business style of Big Dream is very close to Lei Shidong's own ideas, Big Dream as a small production company, if it wants to rise under the outflanking of big production companies, it must avoid those areas where the competition is too fierce, or choose to cooperate with the strong in these fields, so we can see that Big Dream's strategy is to choose less competitive fields, and then cooperate with large companies in production, reduce the risk, and get a good distribution platform, and one thing that must be noted is that Big Dream is relatively rare, a manufacturer that can maintain cooperative relationships with many large companies at the same time-"

"That's right," another guest added, "This is very special, and that's why we're talking about it on this show, because Big Dream's status is really special, and generally speaking, an independent small production company is like DreamWorks, it will maintain a long-term relationship with a company, and if the cooperation is not comfortable enough, it will change partners, this model is more common." But Big Dream did not choose Disney, the close-knit parent company, as a consistent partner, for objective reasons, because Disney may not be able to take care of its own production plan at the same time, but also produce all these blockbusters within three years, and Big Dream's cash flow is very rich, and it has no patience to continue the previous cooperation model between DreamWorks and Paramount, so it adopts such a cooperative development system. Of course, Jennifer. The name of Jefferson's talented producer is also very helpful to the company, and now in Hollywood, someone may kick out Tom. Cruise, but I'm sure no one is going to kick her off, at least until her film fails. ”

"Once kicked Tom off. Didn't Cruise's company bring him back now? In Hollywood, the role of actors is still quite important after all. ”

In the laughter of knowingness, Jim continued the topic just now, "This is directly taking the rumors seriously, and directly determining that Big Dream will cooperate with Paramount in "Mission Impossible", in fact, before there is an official statement, it is still difficult to determine whether this matter is true or false, because there are a lot of rumors and scandals around the next step of Big Dream recently, some of which are very exaggerated. These are actually all reflections of the market's doubts about the relationship between Disney and Big Dream, including the fact that Disney stock has fallen for a week, which should be related to this core rumor, which has been spreading since Big Dream released the news last week, announcing that he would adapt "The Hunger Games...... What really happened between Disney Main and Big Dream? Is there really a serious feud between the two sides? This is what the market is really concerned about, and many rumors should be a natural reaction of the market - people want to know the truth very much, so the media starts to release news instead of pursuing truth and falsehood, which is also a kind of pressure on Disney and Big Dream, if this is just a misunderstanding, they should clarify it in the near future-"

"And Sam. Lei Shidong and Rupert. Murdoch suddenly began to show favor to Big Dream, and praised Jennifer to the media. Can Jefferson also be seen as part of the company's strategy? ”

"If you're going to ask me what I think, it's probably a prank as well -- yes, it could really be a very bold joke, playing on the media, and playing a harmless joke with your peers, and of course, Paramount and Fox are also going up, but overall, the question of whether Big Dream wants to break away from Disney, how difficult it is to think about it, is still shrouded in a lot of fog at the moment, because Big Dream has been working with other companies for a long time, and if Big Dream suddenly starts working with another big company, People will have a lot of associations, but it's hard to say right now, maybe it's business as usual, there is no conflict between Disney and Big Dream-"

"But rumors that Disney has made an offer for The Hunger Games, and the fact that the two companies have fought for the rights has been confirmed by multiple sources......

Pressing the pause button again, Robert glanced at the page view count in the bottom left corner of the page - in the case of a Hollywood business review podcast, the 37,000 views of this episode were simply frightening. Connor's podcast has thousands of views per episode, and although the podcast dedicated to Hollywood business news is full of dry information, and sometimes even invites executives or former executives from the Big Six, the average entertainment news audience doesn't care about the long-term strategies discussed on the show, the conflict of ideas of company executives -- although these deep gossip indirectly determine the film and television world they can see, they prefer to spend their time on reality TV: at least reality TV is intervened by screenwriters. It's much more exciting and fun than this kind of talk show.

Jennifer. Jefferson's star effect, even this small high-end unpopular show is reflected - this is still the result of not being noticed by the fan group, if it really spreads outside the circle and is known by fans, as long as the celebrity on Facebook reprints it slightly, the show may become famous and usher in hundreds of thousands, millions of hits overnight.

Of course, maybe this result is what Ivy is happy to see, but Robert doesn't care about this, he is very happy that these spam clicks have not yet appeared, so that he can have a very intuitive judgment of the real popularity of the industry now - 37000 views have shown how much attention the Hollywood industry pays to this news, although this news has not yet attracted the attention of the public, and the media has only given a step-by-step report, after no ideal response, The focus of the report continued to be on the wedding of Jennifer and Cesare, but it is conceivable that there must be countless reporters outside sniffing every crevice, eager to go further. curtain news, and once someone leaks the truth of the matter, the feud between Big Dream and Disney headquarters is exposed......

Silently exhaled a long breath, Robert □□ his hands into his black hair, made a tight movement, as if venting his emotions, and after a while, he slowly let go of his hand and wiped his face tiredly: it has been nearly a month since Disney made an offer for "The Hunger Games", and a lot of things have happened in this month, the preparation of "OZ" is proceeding step by step, and the personnel of both sides have also met twice to communicate on the choice of the leading actor, And Big Dream is already working on adapting the script of "The Hunger Games" and holding the first round of actor auditions, not to mention here in the main part, there is no delay in daily affairs, but there is only one thing that should have happened - neither the main part nor Big Dream has no intention of actively communicating with him, Dick. Although Cook had brunch with him every week to report on the progress of the week, he never said anything about The Hunger Games, and Jennifer and Cesare were even more desperate, and they never called him at all......

Both the headquarters and the big dream continued their work as if nothing had happened, as if the previous conflict was just an illusion at all, and had no effect on the relationship between the two sides, or even if it did, the two sides did not intend to continue the conflict, so no one came to complain, lobby, co-opt, threaten, such a situation seemed to make Robert happy and happy, but on the contrary, the more these two people were indifferent, the more headaches he had - Robert had realized that he had made a big mistake, The decision to let the headquarters and Big Dream cooperate in the development of the fairy tale series completely intensified the conflict between the two companies. The two sides are not coming to communicate with him now, not because they didn't take the previous conflict to heart, but because they both know that when they come to Robert, Robert can't do anything else except mediate, and neither Dick nor Jennifer wants to mediate this matter anymore, and their silence is just a signal to themselves - in the Disney Group, there is him without me, with me without him!

Of course, the silence of words does not mean the silence of attitude, Big Dream's recent close contact with Fox, Paramount, Warner, and Universal is the best announcement in itself, they have chips, as a cash cow, Big Dream brings dividends to Disney every year and Disney's revenue can be said to be comparable, because the hematopoietic department of the Disney Group is not in the film company, and many times the profits brought by the movie will be reflected in the surrounding Disneyland and toy departments, but Big Dream is just the opposite, They only make movies, and their films are also very profitable. There is no large company that does not want such a high-quality subsidiary, and once Jennifer and Cesare, who hold control of the company, leave - even if it is just such a rumor, such a possibility, it will drive Disney's stock price down, obviously, now Jennifer is not only a star in the eyes of the general public, but also a star in the eyes of investors. Da Meng is obviously very conscious of his rising status in the group, and their shelves are also very sufficient, and now they don't contact Robert at all, but frequently have dinner dates with the presidents, and make it clear that Robert wants to make a statement on this incident, otherwise there is no need for the two sides to talk about it at all.

As for Dick, it goes without saying how important he is to Robert. The only high-level person in the Eisner period who has survived to the present, starting from an amusement park driver, has been promoted to this position step by step in the past 38 years, has a very high impression on the board of directors, and has a very close relationship with many producers, and even gave him a lot of help in the process of Robert's ascension, so after Robert became the chairman, he was not purged - in the past few years, almost all the old ministers in the Eisner period have also changed jobs, retired and retired, and those who were dismissed were dismissed. Only he can continue to sit in the position of CEO, which shows how good the relationship between the two sides is - in fact, even if the relationship between the two sides is not so harmonious, Robert is also worried about moving such an old minister, and in the faction within Disney, except for those shareholders who only think about investment, Walter holds a lot of shares. The Disney family is a force that is an important supporter of Robert's designation as CEO. Disney's nephew, which is directly led to Michael. Eisner's ouster was resigned by board member Roy Brown. Disney, who has been friends with Dick for many years, wants to sacrifice Dick to appease Jennifer, Robert has to ask Roy's opinion first.

It is also because of this that Dick seems so stable, as for his attitude, not to mention - Disney's sudden offer for "The Hunger Games" and the overreaction of Big Dream have actually explained everything, for Robert, a little understanding of the cause and effect, the attitude of all the characters is as clear as an open book: this part is not really competing with Big Dream for the copyright of a novel, even Disney needs a blockbuster YA adaptation series, Dick would not have done such a thing to a brother company of a group for this purpose. Just like Big Dream is talking by hooking up with three or four, the department's approach itself is a statement - Dick is very dissatisfied with the group's support, help and support to Big Dream over the years, and he needs Robert to personally declare who is the boss and who is the leader.

Maybe at the beginning, Dick's demands were only these, but after Big Dream's fierce counterattack and then his arrogant statement, the conflict escalated further, and now Dick just begged Jennifer to leave without Jeannifer leaving - even if the two sides reluctantly reconciled and Jennifer didn't leave, how could the two companies continue to work together? Don't look at the fact that the preparatory meetings for "OZ" are still being held one after another, but how can Robert be deceived by this kind of news? It's just that neither side wants to tear their faces first, they don't want to alarm the outside world, they really don't even shoot "OZ", then the news report is not what the current scale can stop, as soon as the news of Big Dream is about to break up with Disney, God knows what the media will be like and what Disney's stock price will fall into......

On the one hand, it is a veteran who has cooperated for many years and has a good relationship, on the other hand, it has a terrifying aura, but it is always a little unclear, and the new star who will be suspicious, Robert does not want to give up, or rather, giving up any of them will make him troublesome, and in this matter, he himself is also very annoyed - whether it is Dick or Jennifer, they are really too arrogant, Dick suddenly provoked, and the slap was equivalent to hitting him in the face, which made him feel a lot less good about this CEO, And Jennifer's response didn't make people happy, this girl who sprang up at rocket speed was indeed a little green and reckless, somewhat nouveau riche: is there no other way to deal with this conflict? What if the headquarters gets the copyright to "The Hunger Games"? Could it be that under the protest of Big Dream, he didn't have the authority to transfer it to Big Dream Production?

Rubbing his face again, Robert felt that his intelligence and energy had reached a bottleneck, and the personnel conflict that had unfolded this month made him feel seriously powerless: there must be a way to get the best of both worlds, and at the same time appease the two of them, or he strongly hoped that he could come up with a way to avoid the choice, because no matter how he chose, it would be extremely expensive - the idea of kicking Jennifer just thought about it had a serious sense of absurdity, and he believed that if he really did, Competitors are sure to open champagne that night.

And kick off Dick? - No, kicking Dick is not as simple as it seems......

Big Dream itself is a rising star company, its mainstream ambition is clear at a glance, and it is difficult to contain, even if there is no rebound from Dick, the conflict between the two companies is unavoidable, and in such a company-level conflict, if Robert makes a decision to favor Big Dream, this will be a kind of guidance for the hearts and minds of the department, morale, and even the perception of the outside world, so that people form the impression that the group is inclined to Big Dream, and the consequences of this are really unpredictable. It can even determine the company's trend in the next period of time - in any case, Disney Studios is the foundation of Disney's beginnings, has a long history, and carries the intangible assets of this company, no matter how many film and television companies Disney acquires, its position in the group cannot be above Disney Studios? Pixar is at ease to do animation, Marvel is at ease to develop its own resources, do comics, Disney Pictures don't think about sharing the cake, just because the department has a big dream trick and grabs the copyright, they want to kick Dick, emotionally speaking, many members of the board of directors can't accept it at all. Not to mention that Big Dream is not only short in history, but also this company does not completely belong to Disney, nearly half of it is in the hands of two individual shareholders, and in terms of blood, it is not a descendant of Disney......

For Robert, the question is nothing less than 'to live or die,' almost from Paramount's Brad. Gray and Jennifer. As soon as Jefferson's fiancé had lunch together, he realized that he had to make a choice, but as time passed, Universal and Big Dream began to look at each other, and Warner sent people to contact Big Dream like crazy. Murdoch praised Jennifer...... He hadn't made up his mind yet - and how did he do that?

Rubbing his head and walking out of the study, Robert felt the vibration of his phone in his pocket, so he took out the phone, "Hello? Uh-ok-ok-ok, I got it......"

"Whose phone number?" Willow looked up at her husband from the couch and said with a smirk, "Why is your expression so strange?" ”

"Something about work," Robert said simply, hanging up the phone, but then couldn't help but smile bitterly as he uncovered the mystery himself, "Forget it, there's no point in keeping it secret - it's the business detective I hired, and he just called me...... Cesare just and Sony's Michael. Linton came out of a restaurant in Malibu together, and his expression was all pleasant......"

didn't want to continue to dwell on this topic, and without waiting for his wife to speak, Robert diverted the topic, "There should be a courier this morning, did you receive it?" It should be a disc inside. ”

"Yes," Willow. Of course, Bey didn't ask any more questions, she stood up and took out the CD, handed it to Robert, and asked curiously, "Is this a pilot disc of any movie?" You seem to care about it? ”

"Well, it's the only film that Big Dream sent to Cannes this year," Robert nodded, ""Slumdog Millionaire", the cooperation between Big Dream and Warner, should be it, but after getting it, they refrigerated it for half a year to deal with it, and it was only recently re-edited that it was officially started for pre-promotion, I asked them to give me a copy of the exhibition version sent to Cannes, and we will watch it in the afternoon movie time......" The author has something to say: updated, it's a little late today, but it's still early overall, haha, There will be a double change later......
