Chapter 640: The Deal in Hollywood (5)

Sun Ziming was kicked out of her house by an enraged Nicole Kidman, and as soon as he entered the tulip grove, he triumphantly hummed a mountain song tune. He even sat in the woods in the moonlight and began to smoke.

I actually made her a little, it's so cool, she is the most beautiful woman in Hollywood, and the future Oscar actress! Looking at her angry look, I'm afraid her husband didn't dare to shoot her in the mouth and let her swallow it.

However, Nicole Kidman said that she never wanted to see herself, and that was a lie. Men are not bad, women are not loved, this is a wise saying! Why is it said that wives are not concubines, and concubines are better than stealing, it is because of stimulation. Women are human beings too, and they still love this kind of stimulation!

Besides, from her mouth, I asked, why don't I want to be a Hollywood king? It proves that she is ambitious and wants to be a big name in Hollywood, not as simple as wanting to be a great actor. She can take a fancy to Tom Cruise and marry him without hesitation, I am afraid that in addition to the fact that the kid is handsome enough, more importantly, she likes him to be shrewd enough.

Hehe, the more people whose fate is not under their control, the more envy of power. She was much more powerful than her husband, and she wasn't the disgusting old man.

After a while of pride, and a few more cigarettes, Sun Ziming's thinking slowly returned to Nicole Kidmanti's question.

The reason is very simple, I can shoot a woman like Nicole because I am powerful and authoritative, and I can make her do it willingly. If he is only a small director in Hollywood, let alone a beauty like Nicole, even a Japanese girl like Kayo Sato will not look at herself more. I'm not as handsome as Tom Cruise, and I can make women upside down.

Become the King of Hollywood? No kidding, what age is this, still thinking about that kind of power? Besides, this is a gathering place for film geniuses all over the world, and he is just half a bucket of water that succeeds from memory!

Movies are sometimes weird, a good director and an excellent team can make an excellent movie, but they may not necessarily be recognized by fans.

For example, MGM's unlucky ghost now, "Future Water World", which is about to start filming, will be watched ten years later, and it will still be a very good movie, but when it is released, it will not be a blockbuster or a good reception. With an investment of 200 million, the North American box office was only 30 million in the end, and it was necessary to rely on the DVD rental market for more than ten years to slowly recover the cost.

This is the market's receptivity, which Sun Ziming is sure of, because he remembers the movies that can sell well. But to be the king of Hollywood, it's not enough.

Americans are no better than Chinese, they not only want to make money, but also to be free!

For example, James Cameron, although he was recruited to his subordinate, was not his own subordinate, but his own partner, which is considered so by the whole Light and Shadow Group. If it weren't for the light and shadow special effects that he had the final say, he wouldn't have joined the Light and Shadow Group, at most he would have put those special effects here, and he would even have to drum up his own special effects company in the future.

And this one is the most terrifying, because these geniuses have an instinctive impulse to innovate. Science and technology promote social development, and innovation promotes the development of science and technology!

Even if you shoot all those top 10 blockbuster movies, what can you do?

Geniuses can always come up with endless ideas, seize the slightest opportunity to succeed, and become a competitor you can't guard against. Film is not another industry, it does not rely on money and technology, and Hollywood has never lacked money and technology, if you want to succeed here, you need to rely more on creativity!

Can you imagine? $10,000 can make "Ghost Shadow"; A DV camera can shoot "Blair the Witch"; Even an actor can shoot "Buried Alive"!

Hollywood's success depends not only on those blockbusters that sweep the world, but also on a large group of geniuses, endless genius ideas; Coupled with a large group of fanatics who are willing to fight for the film industry, Hollywood has been brilliant. As for the superstars and directors on the pyramid, they are just gorgeous decorations on this gorgeous dress.

So the King of Hollywood can't be deserved, and can't be been!

Hollywood has developed to this day, and it is no longer possible for any one person to control it, or even a group can control it. If you want to call for wind and rain here, at most, you want to control one of its resources, rather than trying to bring it into your own control.

This resource, that's computer effects. Because it burns too much money, only a super-rich person like himself can have strong financial resources to research and development.

Taking advantage of the fact that Industrial Light & Magic has not yet been able to cover the sky with one hand, James Cameron has become his partner again, sparing no effort to quickly push computer special effects to the extreme, and then transplant these mature technologies back to China. Taking advantage of the low labor cost in China, he returned to Hollywood for low-price dumping, forcing the opponent to make no profit, and finally allowed himself to monopolize the market, just like the monopoly companies such as Intel and Microsoft.

This is the most important thing to do, and only when you do it, you will become a boss in the IT industry like Intel and Microsoft. When the memories in your mind run out, even if you can't make great works like "Shawshank" and "Forrest Gump", you can still turn the clouds and rain in this circle!

Of course, the studio system that I pirated from Hollywood giants will help those future big directors to shine brightly in advance, and will also make myself have many followers in Hollywood. Hehe, sending charcoal in the snow is the most precious friendship, Chris Columbus turned out to be a bird, and now he has become his most loyal subordinate, even if he doesn't want green dollars, he also wants to repay himself!

Sun Ziming finished smoking a pack of cigarettes in the tulip grove, sat until more than two o'clock in the morning, took those unrealistic things out of his mind, clarified practical ideas, and then patted his ass and went home to sleep.

Sun Zi Ming slept comfortably, but Jiang Peng and George were still arguing fiercely in the office.

Boss instructed Chris's to do such a big thing, although he once again increased his influence in Hollywood, which is beneficial to the film company and even the entire group, but it will definitely usher in a counterattack from the other party!

George has no eyes in addition to his grandson, but he has many more eyes than him, and he is much more skilled in how to use the rules to play tricks, and even before he called, this ghost guy thought of Carl's old guy's possible counterattack.

But in terms of response, George and Jiang Peng broke out into a conflict, and the two argued.

Although Jiang Peng has been in the United States for so many years, he still has a traditional concept in his bones, advocating saints and virtuous ministers. Brother Ming has a long-term vision, is resolute and resolute and generous, and he and George are united and cooperative, and have the ability to keep the group in order and move forward steadily. Didn't the Karl gang want the film company to give up the actor agency? Then let New York invest in the formation of a brokerage company, which will be secretly controlled by Brother Ming.

Yes, it is not advisable to rule by man, and that is because the leader is not wise enough. But if the Lord is in the lead, the small group can grow quickly! The success of Taiwan, South Korea, and Singapore proves that set of justifications!

George is different, the spirit of the rule of law has been deeply rooted in his marrow, and he admits that the current monopoly of power by the big boss is the best choice for the rapid development of the company; He also admits that the boss secretly operates the agency, which can scare a group of competitors into timidity and make the film company develop more rapidly.

But what about the future?

God can't always favor a certain person, and a genius like a boss can't never make mistakes, God will make mistakes, not to mention that the boss is just a mortal?

The current light and shadow rely on the genius and generosity of the boss to unite people's hearts, forming a brand myth, which makes talents from all walks of life flock to it. Once the boss loses his aura and everyone is used to listening to him alone, the film company will inevitably fall into a dead end.

The model of tying producers, directors, actors, screenwriters, and even behind the scenes has long made Hollywood's experience prove to be backward. That is useful in Hong Kong, Chinese mainland, and even South Korea, because their society has not yet developed to the developed stage of the United States.

For example, the actor agency will find the production department to ask for higher salaries and box office sharing for the actors; The director asked the production department for more budget and made the film better; However, the production department wants to lower the budget and increase the profit rate of the film, which is an impossible contradiction.

At present, the light and shadow company is developing rapidly, and the high profits have brought rich benefits and covered up all the contradictions. With the further development of the company, there will be more and more actors, more and more directors, and there will be a small circle when there are more people. Once there is a crack inside, there will be strife, struggle, and in the end, even the boss will not be able to balance the interests of various departments.

"No, we just need to grasp the degree of goodness, and when appropriate, the actor agency department will be independent!"

George was speechless, but he couldn't help but be patient to convince, this guy couldn't be convinced, let alone think about the boss level.

"Peng, we can't say that genes determine a qiē, but many things are indeed dominated by it. If the light and shadow company still continues to follow the path of human governance, after a long time, human governance has become the company's gene, and it is impossible to change it in the future. Ok, you are the founder of the film company and the general manager, can you mediate the dispute between the actor department and the director department? ”

Jiang Peng wanted to refute, but swallowed the words back. Chris Columbus and his group of directors, as well as Chris Swift and their group of actors, only listen to Brother Ming. If his own opinions are different from Brother Ming, no one will be able to bird himself.

"Good, now there are few people in the company, and everyone often works and plays together, and they have formed a deep friendship with each other. What about later? Four years ago, there were only two directors, Boss and Chris, and now? ”

Seeing that Jiang Peng was silent, George took a sip of cold coffee and repeated his reasons again.

"Directors want higher budgets, actors want higher pay, producers want lower costs, and these contradictions can't be resolved by friendship and prestige. Only by relying on the efforts of all parties to make mutual concessions and compromises can we resolve these contradictions. Peng, while everyone is still in harmony, you have to let go of what you should let go, and when your friends become enemies, it's too late! ”

Seeing that Jiang Peng was still hesitant, George simply said: "Ok, we don't have to argue, let the boss decide for himself tomorrow."

"Ok", Jiang Peng is also tired, anyway, these big things, Brother Ming's vision is convincing to everyone.
