Chapter 129: I Said Yes
readx;
Novels aren't easy to write either, especially like Lady Rowling's Harry? Potter", because of the huge number of fans and the start of the filming of the live-action movie version, this also makes many people have nothing to do, and like to find loopholes and opportunities to attack. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Because, Mrs. Rowling's creation of Harry? Potter", it is not an easy task, and it is impossible to create it in a short period of time. Mrs. Rowling has always been very strict with her own work, perhaps her own, otherwise, Harry? Potter also doesn't take nearly a decade to create. What's more, it is necessary to find allusions and read the information, so in terms of time, it is absolutely indispensable.
Han Quanyou has already told Mrs. Rowling about his concise and more commercialized Taoism, and as for what it can become in the end, Taoism seems to be able to combine with magic perfectly, which must depend on Lady Rowling.
It is impossible for Han Quanyou to stay in the UK and accompany Madame Rowling to continue creating, after all, in terms of time, Han Quanyou is not allowed to do this. Therefore, after spending a week in the UK, Han Kwon Woo exchanged contact information with Mrs. Rowling, and finally took his leave and took Owen to a flight to Los Angeles in the United States.
That's the Rolls-Royce, and even the driver hasn't changed, it's just the mental outlook of the MGM Studios employees now.
Indeed, the experience of MGM Pictures Supreme Board of Directors kicked out several chairmen, this is absolutely no less than a 12-magnitude earthquake within MGM Pictures, or even the end of the world. If in this case, the insiders of MGM Pictures are still calm and have not changed in the slightest, then Han Quanyou can only sigh that the employees of MGM Pictures are a group of talents.
The change is certain, and this change is still developing in a good direction, at least the wages are paid to the employees, and it seems that MGM Pictures has a mysterious huge injection of funds, which also makes MGM Pictures employees more confident in the company, and their mental outlook is also refreshed, and they are no longer as panicked as before.
Of course, for this change, whether it is Han Kwonwoo or Harry? Sloane, or Jason? Cruise is willing to see it. But in fact, everyone understands in their hearts that this is only a temporary superficial phenomenon.
MGM Pictures is the world's civilized film company, and the high foreign debt of $4 billion is not fake. For a film company, if you can't shoot a good work, everything is a floating cloud.
As far as MGM's current situation is concerned, especially the $4 billion foreign debt, it is destined that the most important thing MGM Pictures needs to do now is to shoot a big-box office movie, so as to prove that MGM Pictures is still the noble king, and can alleviate the pressure caused by MGM Pictures' high debt.
Uh~~~ Now MGM Pictures' foreign debt is not as much as $4 billion, and now it has been reduced to about $3.5 billion. The main reason is that some creditors have no confidence in MGM Films, and they are afraid that one day MGM Films will suddenly declare bankruptcy, so they have been in a hurry to collect debts, and even give no face.
In this case, Harry? Sloan took the funds given by Han Quanyou, and was stunned to pay off the money of the creditor who was in a hurry signed by MGM Pictures, and the relationship between the two parties broke down completely.
Of course, while paying back the money on the side, Harry? Sloan was not idle, and kept walking in front of various creditors, guaranteeing that MGM Pictures would not suddenly declare bankruptcy, and that the money that belonged to them would definitely be repaid in the future. It's just that now, I hope everyone can be more considerate of MGM Pictures' situation and don't rush.
For these, more creditors seemed very indifferent, and nodded in agreement with Harry? Sloan's request. After all, the person who can cooperate with the dignified MGM Pictures is not the top rich man, and hundreds of millions of dollars in the eyes of these people, although it is a lot, it has not reached the point where he does not hesitate to declare himself to collect debts.
After all, MGM Pictures is still very respected and supported in Hollywood, in the minds of the entire American, because of its reading power producer surname. In the already difficult situation of MGM Pictures, it has to force debts, which will definitely make many Americans who like to support MGM Pictures dissatisfied.
You must know that those few creditors who are anxious to collect debts have basically been attacked by countless MGM fans now, and they can be said to be infamous.
In this case, these big creditors simply made a choice between money and their own reputation, and finally chose to agree and accept Harry? Sloan's request is not to ask MGM Pictures to pay back for the time being.
After all, although the changes in MGM Pictures have not been announced, the power of the media is endless, at least now the changes in MGM Pictures are in everyone's eyes.
Looking at the new look of MGM Pictures, it seems that there is really a possibility of resurrection. As a result, creditors have remained silent and no longer collect their debts.
Maybe MGM Pictures can really come back to life, and the money will naturally be paid off at that time, but now MGM Pictures is in a very bad situation, and now I have to go to MGM Pictures to ask for debts, which will definitely be attacked and looked down upon, and it is also a very shameful thing.
Besides, even if MGM Pictures really fails, I believe that the media will definitely find out in advance and break the news to remind everyone. At that time, when it is determined that MGM Pictures is really not good, it is okay to ask for debts again, at least at that time, no one will say anything about themselves, after all, MGM Pictures does owe money to itself, and it is natural to repay debts.
Under the conditions of this series of circumstances, the remaining creditors of MGM Pictures have said that they are not short of money, so that MGM Pictures can rest assured that they will not come to collect debts.
For this situation, Harry? Sloan and Han Quanyou are very satisfied, although everyone knows that MGM Pictures is really about to fail, and when it is about to declare bankruptcy, these people will not be as polite and easy to talk as they are now, and they will definitely not give face at all, and force themselves to pay back.
"Old Harry, I don't know what you were asked to prepare, how prepared you were." MGM Pictures headquarters, in the highest conference room, Han Kwon Woo leisurely smoked from Jason? The best Cuban cigars that Cruise snatched like that, ignoring Jason? Cruise looked distressed, the expression of the dead family, and asked Harry on the other side lightly? Sloane.
"Boss, I've done everything you asked me to do, but two of them are still really troublesome?" Looking at Han Quanyou, who had a leisurely and calm face, Harry? Sloan also had to admire Han Quanyou a little at this time. If it had been him, he had been dragged into the water in a hazy and dazed way, and he was still forced to carry MGM Pictures, a company with a high debt of $4 billion, I am afraid that he would have shot the person who pulled him into the water first, and then he would have collapsed. That can be like Han Quanyou now, without any reaction, it seems that he came to play. Well~~~ Yes, I came to play.
Actually, Harry? Sloan didn't know that Han Quanyou did have this idea at the beginning, and even gave the order at that time, and directly asked for his bodyguards, who were also the four bodyguards that Owen found from the UK's most elite special forces Special Air Service Regiment, referred to as SAS, and directly ordered to kill Harry? Sloane's order from the old fox.
Although there was Owen's strong opposition, Han Quanyou still insisted on doing so, and in the end, seeing that Owen did not allow it, Han Quanyou was stunned to recruit four Israeli wild boy special forces, these guys were often against the people of Saudi Arabia before retiring, and they had rich experience in actual combat and killing.
At that time, the four Israeli wild boy special forces had indeed been ordered by Han Quanyou to enter Los Angeles in the United States. If Owen hadn't found out in advance and stopped Han Quanyou in advance, I'm afraid Han Quanyou wouldn't be sitting in Harry like he is now? Sloan chatted in front of him.
Nonsense, being cheated by someone for no reason, and reluctantly carrying such a big burden as MGM Films, people are not happy, people will have emotions, and it is normal for revenge to do some radical things.
Of course, there is a reason why Owen was able to persuade Han Quanyou. Like Owen said, why do you bother, why do you have to kill people, use knives and guns. Even if you really take Harry? Sloan was killed, so what's the use, can you really get angry again? You know, if you really do this, I'm afraid there will really be no way back in the future, and if it is found out that it was instructed by you, your life will be over.
What's more, even if no one finds out that it was you who instructed you, but if you really kill someone, you will be able to feel at ease. What's more, although MGM Pictures' foreign debt has reached 4 billion dollars, what does it matter, according to my calculations, it will only lose 2 to 3 billion euros at most, you are still young, there is no need to talk to Harry? Sloane's old guy who lived well was dead.
Even if you don't have the money, you are still young, you have the talent and strength, you have the image, fame and popularity, you can still start over.
It was Owen's persuasion that made Han Quanyou finally give up on killing Harry? Sloan's idea was to call back four bodyguards from Israel's Wild Boy Army. You know, when I called it again, these four guys had already come to Harry? Sloane's villa, preparing to ambush Harry? Sloane is really dangerous.
After figuring it out, Han Quanyou didn't say anything anymore, just like Owen said, he has a golden finger, so there's no need to talk to Harry? Sloane's old fellow died together, and it wasn't worth it.
Even if he is really destitute and has nothing, he at least has a golden finger, and he still has countless classic movie scripts and classic songs in his head, and he can still make a comeback.
It was in this way that Han Kwon Woo and Owen finally started their first trip to MGM Pictures' headquarters, and now they are facing Harry? Sloane, Han Quanyou will be so calm.
"Wait a minute, have you taken ownership of the Transformers?" Unexpectedly, after a few months, there were still two questions, Han Quanyou's face finally did not have the ease at the beginning, and he couldn't help frowning and asked. You must know that staying at MGM Pictures, Han Kwonwoo's first step, and the most critical and important first step, is to rely on "Transformers" to start his first shot in the MGM Pictures era.
"The ownership of the Transformers has been taken." Seeing Han Kwonwoo's drastic change of color, although I don't know why, but Harry? Sloan nodded in affirmation.
"Whew~~~~~ that's good, that's good!" Hear Harry? Sloan replied that the ownership of the Transformers had been taken, and Han Quanyou couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief. As long as everyone in Transformers is taken down, that's fine, as for other things, it's not a big deal, basically time favors and dollars can be done.
What Han Quanyou is most afraid of is that the Transformers will be pulled into the normal operation route by the tenacious track, and the ownership will be snatched up by DreamWorks Point because of the company, then Han Quanyou really doesn't know what to say, is it really going to start thinking about the "Twilight" movie series!
"So old Harry, what exactly are the two problems you are talking about?" As long as the ownership of the Transformers is not snatched away by someone else, that's fine. In an instant, Han Quanyou returned to the original appearance that nothing had anything to do with me, even if it was the end of the world, don't call me if [***] attacks the door of the conference room.
"That's right, that is, there are some small problems in the cooperation with the American [***] side, and at the same time, about the film going to be shot at the Pentagon, this is definitely the biggest problem. After all, boss, you should also know about 9/11, so the Pentagon, for those politicians who are now high-minded, is a very sensitive topic. ”
Harry? Sloane's words couldn't help but make Han Quanyou frown, these two questions are not big, but if they are small and not small, the most important thing is to see what kind of ways and methods they adopt on their side to impress and make those related people nod in agreement.
"Regarding the cooperation with the military, we can increase funding, and at the same time say that in the movie, the soldiers of the military are definitely not small roles, but on the contrary, they are the embodiment of pure justice and bravery, and I believe that this can also greatly play a role in the image of the military's righteousness and heroism as promoted." Regarding the cooperation with the military, Han Quanyou frowned and said helplessly.
After all, in "Transformers", the military is a big force, which must exist, because in many places and scenes, the full cooperation of the military is required, such as fighter jets, armored vehicles, tanks, and other weapons. Although computer stunts can be used, in general, it is better not to use computer stunts and use real weapons, so as to give the audience a sense of realism.
What's more, with the cooperation with the military, to a large extent, it has huge benefits for both the filming and the release of the film. In terms of filming, the crew doesn't have to go to great lengths to imitate weapons such as tanks, just let the military take out as much as they need, and at the same time, filming in some areas, you can even directly ask the military to block the shooting site, anyway, as long as it's a remote place, don't disturb the people.
Moreover, in the United States, the military is one of the most powerful forces, and cooperating with the military to establish a good cooperative relationship can also indirectly enable the military to escort "Transformers".
Even if MGM Pictures is really just a simple cooperative relationship with the United States, the military will not escort MGM Pictures and the movie "Transformers", but who knows, who dares to try, in case it really offends the United States, this consequence is not something that anyone can do.
Therefore, it is necessary to cooperate with the United States, so Han Quanyou did not hesitate to increase the price, and was even willing to spend more money, that is, the United States was moved and agreed to cooperate with him.
This is the United States, not China, as long as the money is thrown enough, what needs to be ordered by the top to take special care, and the military will definitely carry out comprehensive cooperation with itself.
After thinking about it, Han Quanyou suddenly thought of the problem in "The Battle of Los Angeles", and couldn't help but say: "At the same time, we can say that we don't need the military to show the most advanced and comprehensive weapons, but they must be high-end weapons, at least the world's top ones." ”
"The Battle of Los Angeles" is because the movie greatly exposed the cutting-edge weapons of the United States, which made the movie almost blocked by the United States for a time. Although the movie was released in the end, some of the things behind it are not known to ordinary people. This has to be paid attention to by Han Kwon Woo to avoid the mistakes of "The Battle of Los Angeles".
"Well, okay, I'll talk to the military again, I believe that as long as the price is increased, it shouldn't be a problem." Harry? Sloan thought for a moment, then nodded very firmly and assured Han Quanyou.
Although until now, Harry? Sloan was skeptical about why Han Kwon-woo insisted on making a live-action movie about Transformers toys, but Han Kwon-woo is now more of a MGM studio boss, and this decision is very firm. At this time, the bad situation of MGM Pictures can't tolerate Harry? Sloan opposed and hesitated, and could only do his best to cooperate with Han Kwonwoo's decision.
"Regarding the Pentagon shooting, I don't care about this, you are solely responsible for it Harry, I only say that the shooting in the Pentagon is just a must, no matter what the price is, as long as I can bear it, I can agree."
Regarding the Pentagon, Han Quanyou really has no rules, and can only give a death order to let Harry? Sloan is in charge of dealing with the hypocritical and greedy politicians. Thinking of this, Han Quanyou couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly, it seems that in order to make those politicians promise MGM Pictures to shoot in the Pentagon, it seems that a lot of money is indispensable.
"Boss, is "Transformers" really worth the big price we paid to shoot?" looked at Han Quanyou, who had a calm face, and Jason, who had been silent all the time? Cruise finally couldn't help but ask.
"Hehe, I said yes!" Han Quanyou smiled faintly, and quickly recalled the achievements of the "Transformers" movie series in his mind, and couldn't help but get upset.
If nothing else, with the "Transformers" movie series, it will be enough for MGM Pictures to pay off all its foreign debts, and even have excess. Although there are only three "Transformers" movie series, and although the total box office of the three films will not reach $4 billion combined, the impact and economic value behind it, especially the golden sign of MGM Pictures, as long as the businessmen see the benefits, the dollars will continue to flow and roll over.
