Victor had no idea that he was already being targeted by Hoover and Roosevelt at the moment, and he was struggling with "The Shawshank Redemption".

During this time, Victor was in a hurry. Because and Lenny? Riefenstahl's meeting was all over the city, and the reporters outside Los Angeles No. 1 Prison who came to ask for interviews every day rubbed shoulders, and the entire crew was greatly affected, so that Victor called Anthony to let him send the gang away, but Nicholas? Zink organized.

"Journalists can't be provoked, they can't be tough. Moreover, there are pros and cons to everything, and there are so many journalists, so it's good to let them promote our films. "As a former Hollywood king, Nicholas's mind is completely different from Victor's.

There was no problem with the filming of "The Shawshank Redemption", the crew was running quite smoothly, and after such a long run-in, both the actors and the camera departments were completely involved in it, so there was no need for Victor to bother.

During these gloomy days, there was also some good news.

The most important thing is obviously "No Country for Old Men". The film, which was less than 800,000 before and after the investment, finally hit a box office of $9.5 million and caused an uproar in Hollywood.

Over the years, there have been many Hollywood movies that have exceeded this number, but there are only a handful of movies with such a huge disparity in input and output.

The audience loved it very much, and Hollywood filmmakers and film critics were full of praise for the artistic characteristics and quality of the film itself, both applauding and applauding, which made the name of the legendary film company rise a lot suddenly.

And the people involved in the production of this film have obviously benefited greatly.

The first is Zenerman. Before the film, Zenerman was a worthless third-rate person in Hollywood. Not even a director. Now. With the glory of "No Country for Old Men", Zenerman has become the latest "cutting-edge director" of Hollywood venture capital, and while gaining fame and fortune, many film companies have secretly sent people to dig up the wall.

But Zenerman has no interest in these people at all: "I'm a legend and don't have any interest in other companies. In the face of the big temptation, Xenaman also refused, which made Victor scold this guy for being a brainless and unable to get over money, while also feeling very comforted by Xenaman.

Besides. Victor himself apparently got some positive reviews because the film was also starting to get some positive reviews. All Hollywood filmmakers know that this story comes from Victor, although "This Killer Is Not Too Cold" was scolded as a mess before, but Victor's screenwriting ability has been fully recognized in Hollywood at this time, no matter who it is, there is nothing to say about Victor's code writing ability. And the biggest benefit that "No Country for Old Men" brought to Victor was obviously the performance.

In this movie, Victor plays the killer Anthony, who not only conquers all audiences, but also Hollywood filmmakers. The Hollywood Review even commented: "Victor? Ferro is not a good director, but from this film, we felt that he could be a master performer! This made Victor laugh and cry.

And Jali, who participated in the show? Cooper. Because the value and fame of this movie have also skyrocketed, before the filming of this movie. He is still a second-rate star at Warner Bros., but with the fame accumulated in this movie, he has now completely become a first-line star. Warner vs. Jali? Cooper can be described as very polite, not only quickly signed a contract to improve Jia Li's treatment, but also provided Jia Li with all the ancillary facilities of first-class stars, including private housing, etc., for fear of Jia Li? Cooper is poached by Victor.

It can be said that "No Country for Old Men" is compared to "This Killer is Not Too Cold", and it has completely and completely turned over.

With a box office of 9.5 million, according to the previous contract with Warner Bros. Pictures, Legendary Pictures directly purchased Warner Bros. first-class theaters for half of the box office - $4.75 million.

For Legendary Films, this is the most important thing since the establishment of the company.

Being able to have their own theater is the common wish of all legends, including Victor.

So, the executives of Legendary Pictures came to Warner Bros. Pictures in unison, in Sam? Warner's office, facing a map of Warner's theater distribution, began to cut the land.

Victor is only interested in Warner's first-class theater chain, and which movie theater to choose has already been decided with Nicholas.

A total of 45 first-class cinemas are in the bag, and these cinemas are all in big cities without exception, and occupy the most prosperous locations in big cities, all of which have a long history and good reputation.

Looking at the theater distribution map, more than 45 small flags were pulled down by Victor, and then inserted a small sword slaughter mark representing the legendary film company, Sam? Warner clutched his chest in distress and almost went into shock on the spot.

"Sam, don't do this, more than 9.5 million are all yours." Victor laughed.

"Come less! I'd rather not have those four million! My theater! "Sam? Warner looked at Victor pitifully: "Victor, do you know how our brothers wore out their mouths again and again in order to win these theaters?" Now, you've reached out and fished it out. ”

"Why do you want so many theaters?" Victor didn't care about this, pulled the lawyer to complete the handover formalities on the spot, and then relieved himself, and then gave Sam? Warner a bear hug: "Happy cooperation!" ”

"I'll never work with you again!" Sam? Warner wanted to cry without tears.

"You can't say anything so dead. Cooperation still has to cooperate, don't you make money if you have money? Victor said.

"You kid, you're so good!" Sam? Warner was helpless.

After accepting Warner Bros. Pictures' 45 theaters, Victor immediately called Anthony and Leo. First of all, he sent someone to quickly take over these theaters, retained the original crew of the theaters with preferential treatment, ensured that the normal operation was not affected, and used Anthony to settle the relationship between black and white, and then quickly registered and established the legendary cinema company. Leo became the general manager, and Anthony also hung up the name of a deputy general manager, such a big mess, Victor completely handed over to these two guys.

"Damn, I'm not dreaming, am I? Not long ago, I was a poor scum in Hollywood, and in the blink of an eye, I became a person with a head and a face. Hahaha. Leo was so happy that he was jumping with joy.

"Manage it well, use dim sum, and there will be more theaters in the future, but you remember it for me, if the business loses money and a family is buried, you will commit suicide." Victor laughed.

"Don't worry, this matter is left to me and Anthony, we are both here, and it will be fine." Leo and Anthony were full of confidence.

And just when "No Country for Old Men" was popular and won countless attention from Hollywood, the appearance of several other movies also quickly diverted Hollywood's attention.

Several of these movies have made Victor have to pay great attention. (To be continued......)
