Chapter 113: Join Paramount?!
He was very interested in Adolf. Chuck didn't have a good impression, in his heart, the guy in front of him was completely a businessman who used movies as a money-making machine, but, I have to say, for wooing himself to join the gang, Adolf. Chuck showed full sincerity. Not to mention the $10 million, Hollywood can let the acquired company transport it alone, and even the rights such as directing rights and editing rights have been released, which is unprecedented.
"Mr. Chuck, thank you." Victor sat across from Chuck and said sincerely, "Thank you for your kindness. The price you give, and the related conditions, I am afraid that there is no second company in Hollywood that can make such a big deal, but we must refuse. ”
"For what?" Chuck was stunned.
"In Hollywood, sometimes money is everything. For other studios, I wish I could do it if you were, but we're different. We have what they don't. Victor said.
Adolph. Chuck: "What? ”
"Ideal." Nicholas answered from the side.
"Ideal?" Haha
"In Hollywood, you still talk about ideals!? Nicholas, it's just that he's such a naïve little hairy child, and you've been here all your life, when did you become so naïve? This is the world of the jungle! ”
Hehe. Nicholas chuckled, "Yes. You're absolutely right. That's what I thought before. However, this is not the case anymore. Now, I think it's good to be naïve. No, it's not naïve to be precise. It's honest and simple. The simpler things are. the easier it is. ”
Nicholas looked at Chuck and looked at this guy who had dealt with him all his life: "Adolf, we are all old guys, for so many years, ups and downs, you are infinitely beautiful, I am poor, but you think about it carefully." After we die, a hundred years from now, how many people will remember us? Indeed, when you are alive, you make money and earn fame, but when you die, all of this is a thing of the past, and what can you leave behind? Only movies! What a movie! And at that time, how many people still remember the movie we made? ”
"We've been busy all our lives. In the end, it is silently buried in history. This. What a terrible thing it is. Nicholas opened his heart: "I used to think about this question a lot, but when I didn't think of this, my heart was like a knife, and all my thoughts were lost. Zhilu said that when I saw this young man and walked into this small company, I felt that my life was meaningful. ”
"I can completely say that after my death, we don't want to make many movies, and there are three or two films that can be remembered forever by future generations, then there will be no regrets! It's money, you can't buy it. Nicholas sighed: "Adolf, the price you gave is very good, we can feel the sincerity, but we are not on the same path, we will indeed make a lot of money by joining Paramount, but we are afraid that we will become no different from others because of this." ”
Nicholas's words, Adolf. Chuck was silent.
Victor lit a cigarette for Chuck and said, "Mr. Chuck, if we don't join Paramount, it doesn't mean that there is no relationship between us, cooperation, or is it okay?" ”
"How to cooperate?" Chuck came interested.
"Screening, filming, you can do it, in a company-to-company format. You see, we've worked very well with Warners! Victor laughed.
Chuck laughed too, and shook his head while laughing: "Victor, you cunning little fellow, you think I'm like Sam. Is Warner that stupid? This guy has a pig brain, he has no vision at all, he cooperates with you, and in the short term, he makes money, but in the long run, he has put the roots of the film company's life out of the way. I can't do such a thing. Buy a theater, forget it, other cooperation, I'm very interested. ”
"That's fine." Victor laughed.
Adolf stood up, walked up to Victor, stared at Victor, nodded, and then looked at Nicholas: "Nicholas, it seems that we are all old, this Hollywood is already the world of young people." Farewell. ”
With that, Chuck went out with the group.
"This old guy has a good calculation." Nicholas laughed.
"To be honest, I'm really impressed. $10 million. Victor said.
"!" Nicholas kicked.
At the door, Chuck and his gang were very angry.
"This kid is so fucking arrogant! What is it! ”
"Young man, if you don't teach him a lesson, he doesn't know whose world Hollywood is!"
……
A bunch of directors chirped crookedly.
"Shut up!" Chuck roared and fell silent.
"You guys are full of money all day, have you carefully pondered Nicholas's words?" Chu Ke let out a long sigh, and then looked at these subordinates: "I used to be as high-spirited as that kid, and vowed to leave a name in history, but now? ”
A bunch of people didn't dare to look Chuck in the eye.
Chu Ke looked up to the sky and sighed: "As a result, it took his mother's self decades to become the kind of person I hated the most!" ”
The fat man put his hands behind his back and shook his head: "I'm ashamed." I didn't expect this kid to teach me a lesson. ”
"Mr. Chuck, do you want to teach this kid a lesson?"
"Teach a fart! My ideal is impossible to achieve, if I can help him and watch him achieve his ideal, it is also a good thing, not to mention, it is beneficial for us to cooperate with this kid. If we don't cooperate, there will be someone else. Chuck turned his face to look at the room where Victor was, and said, "Stinky boy, I hope you don't let me down." ”
……
Midnight. It's past twelve o'clock. In the office, a group of people from Legendary Pictures sat on the couch, staring at the phone in front of them.
Next to the phone, Sam. Warner sat down.
The atmosphere is mysterious and tense.
Jingle bells. When the phone rang, Sam. Warner was startled, jumped up and hugged the phone.
"How's it going? Really? Good. Good. Good. I got it. "Sam. Warner's face was responsible, and after hanging up the phone, he sweated on his forehead, and then sat down on the couch and poured all the coffee in front of him.
"How?" Victor asked.
In the room, everyone stares at Sam. Warner.
Sam. Warner smiled bitterly: "Victor, you guy!" ”
"Don't talk about all this uselessness, say, how is the screening?" Victor Road.
Sam. Warner stood up and turned to everyone: "Ladies and gentlemen, I declare now that you fucking made a movie that made a big box office!" Victor, you son of a bitch, it looks like you're going to take a lot of movie theaters from me! (To be continued......)
