Chapter 159: Conflicting Release Times

The huge conference room was silent, a few small windows were tightly blocked by thick curtains, and more than a dozen people sat in large chairs, staring intently at the silvery curtain, and a small projector was playing thrilling images.

Although everyone here, including Ryan, is considered a veteran of the industry, when the huge Tyrannosaurus rex appeared in the picture, he still couldn't help but show a look of surprise, after special effects, it is not much different from the real dinosaur.

Although there is no soundtrack, and even some of the voiceovers of the characters are not added to it, this Tyrannosaurus rex is enough to kill one qiē in an instant.

Its huge head easily knocked over a Ford SUV, opened its jaw, burst two tires with unusual agility, and stomped on the car, and the sturdy SUV flattened as if it were made of paper.

What was playing on the screen was "Jurassic Park", a small preview meeting, and the people sitting here were basically investors and producers.

The film is just a sample after the first editing, not to mention the before and after letters and soundtrack dubbing, except for a few clips, even the special effects have not been added to it, even so, the limited number of dinosaur pictures still makes most people amazed.

Just an hour later, the preview was over, and Ryan was the first to slap his palm, and as long as the remaining special effects remained at the level of a Tyrannosaurus Rex, this "Jurassic Park" would still sweep the world film market.

"Stephen, it's excellent, that T-Rex is even better than I thought it would be."

Walking up to the Jewish director, Ryan gave a small compliment, and Spielberg couldn't hide the tiredness on his face although he smiled brightly.

"Thank you, Ryan, for the praise of you, the original author, I think that's the biggest success."

During this time, Spielberg had to juggle the later stages of both films. The pressure is indeed very high, even if most of the later stages of "Jurassic Park" are George? Lucas is in charge.

"Believe me, this movie will set a shocking record."

Ryan vs. Catherine? Kennedy said hello and looked at Ron, who was walking over? Meyer, "Ron, is the movie release date set?" ”

"It will definitely be in the summer, and I want to ask for your opinion on the specific date."

The promotion of the movie has been in full swing since the day it was launched, Ron? Meyer doesn't have any pressure for the summer release.

"The first week of June." Ryan had thought about it a long time ago, even if they didn't ask. He will also take the initiative to build, "Throughout the summer, all the movies can only tremble in the shadow of "Jurassic Park"! ”

"Hmm...... There's still three months to go, Stephen, can you finish it later? "Ron? Meyer looked to the other side.

"There is nothing wrong with it."

Spielberg swore by it.

"And." Ryan spoke again, "What do you think about placing the premiere at the National Museum of Natural History in Washington, D.C.?" ”

"Good idea, we can also invite some naturalists to the premiere. This goes a long way in promoting the film. ”

Ryan only mentioned some suggestions, which he was not good at, and after a small discussion with Spielberg about other aspects of the film. I said goodbye to Universal Studios.

The time entered March, and after close preparations, "Sugar-Coated Trap" was officially launched in the Cayman Islands. Pitt played the male lead, the Michelle lawyer, and Nicole, although he didn't have many scenes. or rushed to the crew for the first time.

When he got home, it was getting late, and Ryan had a brief dinner. Sit on the sofa in the living room and switch the channels of the TV back and forth.

Scott? Swift already has a relationship with Steve? Jobs has been in contact with them a few times, and the other party has offered a sky-high price of $80 million, treating them as fat sheep.

After several rounds of negotiations, the two sides are tug-of-war at the price of $55 million, because there is no competitor, Ryan is not in a hurry, it should be the other party who is anxious, Jobs's NeXT computer company is in a worrying situation, and he needs a lot of money.

Now Steve? Steve Jobs was at the lowest point in his life.

As soon as he switched to CBS, Ryan was caught up in the picture on the TV set, which was the trailer of an action movie.

"Just this summer, we're going to see the superstar back, Tom? Cruise vs. Demi? Moore Lianyang, columbia pictures and Cruise Pictures invested $70 million to jointly create, the dazzling super action masterpiece "Furious Spirits", which will land in North America from June 4 to spend the hot summer with you......"

In the picture, the helicopter crash and the car collide appear one after another, and the blazing flames light up half of the night sky, but in this trailer of less than two minutes, whether it is Demi? Moore, or are the action scenes, big and small, all foiled, all to set off Tom? Cruise's handsome face.

Ryan felt a toothache, as if the film had been in the making for more than a year, right? Sony actually put it in this summer file? The timing happens to clash with "Jurassic Park", and I really don't know if I should say that I am lucky or they are unlucky.

"Flames" may surpass the existence of "Terminator 2", but is it possible? Ryan looked at the director's name on the subtitles and couldn't help but shake his head, Tony? Scott is a great director, but with James? Cameron and Stephen? Spielberg was more than a notch behind in the production of commercial films.

After thinking about it for a moment, Ryan dialed Pie? Jinsili's phone, the sound of the bell bell rang for a while, and Ryan heard the phone connected from there, who knew that it was not Jinsley's voice that came first.

"It's really annoying, why did you call at this time, didn't you say to turn off your phone?" A man's grumbling voice was heard.

"I'm sorry, Ryan......"

Listening to Kinsley's voice, Ryan realized that he seemed to be interrupting someone's good deed, what a sin.

"That...... Pate, if you're busy, we'll talk about it tomorrow. ”

"It's okay."

Ryan tried to keep the question in his mind as short as possible, and after getting the answer provided by Kinsley, he quickly hung up the phone.

It's not easy to be a strong woman! Ryan was very impressed, as far as he knew, Pie? Since 90, Kingsley has parted ways with her three boyfriends, and it seems that if she continues to be busy, she may not be able to stay for long.

However, he got the answer he wanted on the phone just now, and Sony Columbia really had a relationship with Tom? Crews' Crews Films has established a fairly close partnership.

Frankly speaking, his appearance in Hollywood has brought a lot of changes to major film companies, such as Sony Columbia losing the distribution rights of movies such as "Terminator 2", which is more difficult than the same period in his previous life, and if he continues to mix it up, he may one day go bankrupt like United States.

Eager to change the status quo, its Oriental proprietors made changes to the management of the studio, and it is said that there were several more laps among the executive directors, and they led the project "Flames".

And the movie has been in the promotion for quite a long time, but I just didn't notice it.

However, do these guys understand how to play in the North American entertainment market? It's been so many years since Sony acquired Columbia Pictures, and they are still paying tuition, could it be that those Luo Quanleg really regard this place as their domestic entertainment industry, and they can let them do the wind and rain?

Ryan had heard that after Sony bought Columbia Pictures, he was dissatisfied with the fact that there were more Americans than Japanese in the management of the studio, and Columbia Pictures' poor performance in recent years just gave them a reason to adjust.

Tom? Although Cruise's reputation has become worse and worse in the past two years, he still has a lot of box office appeal, and Sony has enough capital, so it seems that the two sides hit it off.

What if Sony Columbia is willing to put Tom? Cruise dragged into the pit and couldn't climb out, but Ryan was happy to see it, even if these guys were supposed to want a big piece of the pie from the North American entertainment market.

Also, Tom? Cruise didn't just play the lead role, according to Kingsley, Cruise Pictures invested more than 15 million dollars in it, and he himself served as a producer and had a considerable say in the film.

Originally, Ryan never had a good way to deal with Tom? Cruise, the plan is also to wait until he is an adult, his foundation is solid, and then find a way to start.

Fifteen million dollars is not a small number, if the other party loses all their money, it should hurt the flesh, right? Let Tom? Cruise doesn't make money, or even loses money, and Ryan will naturally be happy.

If it were another movie, Ryan might still have a scruple or two, this is "Jurassic Performance"! The super blockbuster of all ages, not to mention this "Furious Flames" that I have never heard of in my previous life, even if "Terminator 2" meets it, James? Cameron will also back off.

Ryan just watched the sample film in the afternoon, and due to the more abundant funds, the few special effects clips that have been completed are slightly better than the previous life, and the film has a large number of fans as a foundation, and in terms of distribution channels, Universal Pictures has more advantages than outsiders like Sony.

The market share of North American films is there, and if one of the films released during the same period is a big hit, the box office of the other films will naturally suffer, as long as "Jurassic Park" can show the momentum of its previous life, in this day and age, it can almost crush R-rated action movies.

If you want the movie to be a big hit, you have to increase publicity, and it seems that you should cooperate more with the crew's publicity plan.

In just a short period of time, a lot of thoughts turned in Ryan's head, "Jurassic Park" premiered on June 3, and it will fully land in major theaters in North America on June 4, which is really an exciting day. (To be continued......)
