"Disney seems to be going to reboot a '98 animated film and plan to make a live-action version." Ancy had already filled her stomach.

But she still picked up a vermicelli for face and ate it slowly.

After getting Lin Dong's slimming tea, she found that her weight would always hover at the standard position.

This standard is the standard for female stars.

"Disney movies are pretty good." Lin Dong had to admit this.

Last year's "Zootopia" sold very well and was shot very well, and Lin Dong went to see it himself.

This year, Qin Beier acted as an agent for their "Dream Travel".

Alas, the wings are stiff, and it can't stop her from continuing to work with Disney at all.

"But what they want to do this time is "Mulan", I am more hesitant, I think it is difficult for them to make Mulan that is in line with our values, they actually don't understand our culture very well." Annsy said worriedly.

"They really don't understand, a lot of the cultures we present over there cater to their appetites, they are all distorted, distorted, and distorted again...... You'd better stop acting in this movie. Lin Dong is not optimistic about such a movie.

If he was asked to invest, he would be more than happy.

His disapproval is based on whether it is good or not, and from the perspective of actors.

"Then let's stop acting." Ancy nodded.

I used to think that Hollywood was very high-minded, and most Chinese actors thought so, but the acquisition of MGM by Cat Factory gave people the illusion that Hollywood was nothing more than that.

How about your cowhide?

We Huaxia can also buy you, there is Legendary Pictures in the front, MGM in the back, maybe one day the capital will work hard and collect your Disney too.

The screen cuts back to Kleist's side.

Gary Barber and Mary Parente were encouraged to discuss with the Cat Factory executives what they would do next for MGM.

Or rather, how to spend the more than three billion dollars.

“007！” Du Qixi couldn't wait to say that in his opinion, one of the biggest benefits of acquiring MGM is that he can access the copyright of "007".

Hollywood tough guy movies, such as those starring muscular hunk Arnold Schwarzenegger, Dwayne Johnson, Vin Diesel, etc., are very popular.

However, spy movies with strong hands and quick minds are also popular with the audience.

"007" is the code name of agent James Bond, and the film was born in 1962.

When many people take stock of the agent series, they will inevitably put it first, followed by "Mission Impossible", "Spy Shadow", "Extreme Agent", "Hurricane Rescue", "Red Flame Battlefield", "Agent Bean", "Ace Agent" and so on.

The 007 series, 24 main stories, two side stories, most of which are classics among classics.

Later spy films were deeply influenced.

To put it mildly, at least half of MGM's $6.2 billion purchase price came from "007."

"Mr. Bobble, we don't know as much about Hollywood as you and Ms. Parent, so we'd like to ask you what you think of the 007 series, and how do you plan to go about the new 007 movie?" Pei Qianlong asked.

"If it weren't for this acquisition, we would have been ready to take out this series of films and cooperate with other companies, because we can't afford the skyrocketing production costs now, and if we want to make a hit, we will need at least $200 million or more, and "Spectre" spent nearly $250 million, and the next one can't be lower than this."

"Money is not a problem, we need to bring this IP back to life, even if the next one doesn't make money or even loses money." Pei Qianlong said.

Gary Barber and Mary Parente were taken aback.

Let's just make money like this, you actually say that it doesn't matter if you make money or not.

"What budget can you get?" Mary Parentt asked.

"Mission Impossible Five is a cost of $150 million, we can do $300 million, don't exceed too much, Mr. Daniel Craig should still act, right?" Pei Qianlong asked.

"Three hundred million!" Mary Parente was stunned for a moment before replying, "That's too much, you can ask Daniel Craig, I think as long as he gives enough, he shouldn't mind fighting two more." ”

"Bond girl, I love Scarlet Witch." Du Qixi was clamoring on the side.

He once bragged that when he had the opportunity, he would have to let Elizabeth Olsen act in his own film.

"Do me a favor and satisfy our Mr. Du, although her salary may be a little higher." Pei Qianlong must give Du Qixi this face, even if he suspects that Du Qixi is just greedy for other people's bodies.

In fact, he thinks Elizabeth Olsen is really good-looking, but in front of some people, he has to pretend that he doesn't even know who Elizabeth Olsen is.

I don't know where to look at it at all.

"In addition, we hope to have Chinese actors appear, we don't need to have many scenes, but the image must be positive." Shi Shanshan added.

"Of course." Gary Barber and Mary Parentt were not opposed.

First, people bought MGM, and it was impossible to turn away Chinese actors anymore.

Second, with the backing of the cat factory, Huaxia will inevitably be the most important overseas market for MGM in the future, and everything will be closer to this aspect.

"By the way, if you think about it from the perspective of the Chinese film market, I personally recommend buying the movie rights from Blizzard." Mary Parente gave her opinion.

"Warcraft, do you mean to specialize in the Huaxia market?" Pei Qianlong asked.

"Yes, I think that if we make Warcraft, we can start from the following aspects......

Mary Parentt believes that the reason why Warcraft is hitting the streets in North America is the first problem of the cast, which is basically all second-tier actors, and Legendary Pictures is too small.

In the second part, you can completely make part of the budget to the top of the salary.

Kleist's budget of $3.8 billion gave her enough confidence to restart the project.

Second, reuse Hollywood's gold medal screenwriters for adaptation.

The key to making a game a classic is the gameplay, and movies are used to tell stories, and adapting the plot of a game into a movie is very difficult in itself.

Because the plot of the game is for the game, so in many places, it will not be as rigorous as the comics, and the plot of the first part of "Warcraft" is really a little inexplicable, even the players and fans can't get excited, so how can they ask the non-player viewing group.

Third, Mary Parente believes that she once worked as a producer of The Hobbit.

She herself has a lot of understanding of this kind of fantasy masterpiece that ordinary Hollywood producers can't understand, and after seeing the "Warcraft" movie after its release, she has a lot of things she wants to express.

"And for good reason, Ms. Parent, how are you going to convince Legendary Pictures to give up this IP?" Pei Qianlong was able to understand Mary Parent.

She and Gary Barber are in a cooperative relationship, but there is also competition with each other, and this competition can be benign.

Gary Barber will undoubtedly be in charge of the big picture of 007.

So what should she do?

Down?

She didn't have much interest, so she had to find an opportunity of her own.

In the end, she chose the epic fantasy blockbuster she was good at.

The "Warcraft" series, which has a similar world view to "The Hobbit", if she can make "Warcraft" as classic as "The Hobbit", her name will inevitably be praised by the whole Hollywood.

"Actually, Blizzard is very dissatisfied with Legendary Pictures, and has planned to get back their rights from Legendary Pictures, we can talk to Blizzard directly, I think I can convince them." Mary Parentt said.

"In that case, let's just do it." Pei Qianlong expressed his support.

"I have one more suggestion." Gary Barber spoke, he may have felt some pressure, so he took the initiative to say: "I'm still a bit thin in Hollywood, we can participate in those big IPs, such as Marvel, such as DC, and some other things." ”

Pei Qianlong and Concubine Han glanced at each other, both a little proud.

This old man's greatest value is here.

As I said before, when Huaxia Capital enters Hollywood, you can only eat some leftovers, and the IP that people really make money will not take you to play at all.

Even any one of them will share the risk by pulling some allies to participate in the investment, production and distribution.

But people just won't bring you outsiders.

After MGM was acquired, it was very easy to be isolated, especially after changing the lion's head.

Gary Barber's role is to alleviate the contradictions, and even take the initiative to resolve the contradictions, through his existence, MGM can completely integrate into Hollywood.

With more than $3 billion, MGM can make even more money waving its tickets.
