Chapter 726: Amy pounced
"How did he go?"
After chatting with the DreamWorks Big Three, Song Ya felt that his 'How do I stop all this' was expected to return to his roots, no matter how small the mosquito was, it was meat, he was in a much better mood, and came out to find his wife, just in time to see Xiao Li Zi just leaving her side.
"There's something else."
Mariah Carey tilted her neck to drain the wine in the glass, and said deliberately: "He is so beautiful, when my star dream tears are sold, maybe I will find him to cooperate in the next part." ”
?
Song Ya went to tickle her flesh, "It's addicted to working with beautiful men, right?" ”
"Don't move, there are so many people around." She smiled and twisted her body to dodge, and the couple flirted for a while, when Hollywood Pictures presidents Linton and Yeremov arrived.
"Spielberg is half-hearted, David Geffen likes to play with capital to make quick money, and Katzenberg is as controlling as Disney boss Eisner, and I don't like them."
Linton said as he looked at the triumvirate who were talking from afar.
"Drink less."
As a member of Disney, Linton is certainly not happy about the emergence of a new eighth largest film company, and he and Katzenberg still have a holiday.
Song Ya didn't pick up, and grabbed his wife's hand stretched out to the waiter tray, he knew that Linton's mouth was not optimistic, but his mentality should be similar to his own envy, jealousy, and hatred, don't look at the purchase price of the seven major film companies, it can easily be tens of billions, but DreamWorks has an investment of nearly one billion yuan as soon as it opens, and the instantaneous explosive power can definitely leave the seven behind.
Now in addition to the acquisition of distribution networks, they have invested in large-cycle animation projects that have been launched in the hands of the industry's top master Katzenberg, and Spielberg will also make efforts in live-action films next year, coupled with David Geffen's capital operation ability and music department, many people are optimistic about this iron triangle.
"Our cat-and-mouse game project is definitely a big hit." Linton continued to nag: "I've seen some of Ridley Scott's footage and it feels really good......"
"Isn't the red tide in May also profitable?" Song Ya asked him.
Linton smiled wryly, "To tell you the truth, Hollywood Studios is weak in working with Don Simpson and Jerry Brookheimer's studios, and the company doesn't make much money." ”
"That's right."
Song Ya and Yeremov glanced at each other, he also knew that the two well-known Hollywood producers left Paramount to 'bring guns' and took refuge, and they should have signed a relatively cheap cooperation agreement with Hollywood Studios, which has been hitting the streets all year round, I heard that the two can directly get rid of Linton and communicate with Disney executives, and the degree of freedom is very large, and Will Smith's Jedi Men who sold well in the first half of the year was also produced by them, and then handed over to Columbia Pictures for distribution.
"Ahem."
Mariah Kelly deliberately made a sound, and the three men noticed that Catherine and her husband from Amperin Entertainment were coming over.
"Catherine, I heard that Amperin Entertainment will also merge into DreamWorks soon?" Linton smiled provocatively.
"Perhaps? I don't know. ”
Catherine also smiled: "Look at Mr. Spielberg, I'm just a manager......"
"Oh yes, congratulations to you and Harvey Comics on the box office hit."
Linton continued to put pressure, "That movie cost more than 50 million, and it is said that the global box office is nearly 300 million? The kids loved that little ghost made by computer CG. I would say that Mr. Spielberg, since he already has such a successful production company, he might as well put DreamWorks under your management. ”
"Haha, seriously, that's a good idea, and the projects we manage aren't going to be at least losing money."
Catherine's husband fights back.
Linton was not happy when it came to losing money, "It seems to be true...... Let's talk. After a few more copies, he and Yeremov left the war group and went to socialize with others.
"Mimi, you're so pretty."
With the remaining two couples, the woman chatted about familiar fashion topics, and Catherine's husband asked Songya, "Do you know Mr. Spielberg's latest decision?" ”
"What decision? DTS? Oh, and he says he's leaving the business to professional investment managers. ”
Song Ya asked rhetorically, "What do you and Catherine think about DTS?" ”
"Uh......"
His husband shook his head helplessly, "We will only take care of the film company, and Mr. Spielberg is very unhappy about the recent setback of DTS, you know, it was he who made Universal use DTS's cinema stereo format in the first place, and he invested a lot of money." But...... He's too busy to follow up on the follow-up ......"
Song Ya knew that the couple might be criticized by Spielberg, "Yes, for the director, he is indeed very prolific, and he must have put all his energy into maintaining the standard." ”
"What do you think?"
"I don't know, let Terry Bilder and the Wall Street guys worry about it, to be honest, we've made money on DTS, and now it's them who are in a hurry, and they're more professional than we are." Song Ya shrugged.
"That's right......" said Catherine's husband, when suddenly a few women's screams came from outside the villa.
"What's wrong again?"
The four of them were not far from the balcony on the second floor, and when they walked over and looked down, they turned out to be acquaintances, LLCoolJ and Wesley Streep, and the two hugged each other again and scuffled.
"LLCoolJ is in an alliance with Touchstone Pictures to get a movie license for Blade from Marvel, and Wesley Streep is in a league with the new line."
Catherine and her husband are laymen in the IT industry, but know a lot about the going on in Hollywood, "APLUS, I HEARD MARVEL WOULD LOVE YOU TO PLAY THAT ROLE?" They feel it's tailor-made for you. Half-blooded, expressionless, always cool, and then some karate, or kung fu? It doesn't matter, anyway, the figure and skills are excellent......"
"Marvel is just pulling people to invest in ......"
More than one person has mentioned that he is suitable for that role, and Song Ya was a little moved by her compliment, "It's like they're eyeing LLCoolJ's wallet, that guy has good sales of his new album this year, and he has made a small fortune with a little DefJam record shares." ”
"LLCoolJ has a nice face, and Wesley has great acting skills, but his face is too fierce and not handsome enough." Catherine said: "I'M SERIOUS, APLUS, YOU CAN CONSIDER COOPERATING WITH MARVEL, MAYBE WE CAN HELP WITH AMPERIN ENTERTAINMENT, AND YOU DON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT BEING CHEATED BY THEM AT ALL." ”
"The one who can pit our husband and wife in Hollywood hasn't been born yet." Her husband laughed, "You shouldn't be afraid of Marvel, they should be afraid of you." ”
"Oh!"
At this time, the winner was divided downstairs, and the short Wesley threw LLCoolJ over his shoulder and smashed it to the lawn amid the exclamations of a crowd of men and women, and LLCoolJ's friend IrvGotti who was rumored to be involved in the black immediately rushed in from outside the battle circle and hit Wesley in the abdomen with a very fast and concealed punch, beating him to the point of bending over in pain.
IrvGotti's emotions seemed to be a little out of control, and he grabbed Wesley's shoulder again, and raised his knee with a fierce face, trying to give the other man another head to remember, but was hugged from behind by the security personnel who pounced on him.
"Be careful, Wesley, Fxxk, if ...... in New York"
Then the two sides quickly calmed down, and IrvGotti picked LLCoolJ up and swore and squeezed away to watch the crowd leave.
"I'm fine."
Wesley Streep obviously suffered a little more, and with the help of his friends in the circle, he slowly straightened up, "It's really okay......" tried to move a few times, and then silently walked into the door with his friends.
Today, Catherine and his wife did not come forward to drink, in fact, it was not a big deal, this kind of skirmish was very common at parties, everyone was pouring wine into their stomachs, men and men, women and women, men and women tearing each other apart from time to time, it was not strange.
"I'll think about it." He said to Catherine and his wife.
"Okay, but it can't be delayed for too long, looking at the reactions of the following two people today, they and Marvel should have begun to make substantial contact." Catherine reminded her and went to socialize with her husband.
"Do you know how to shoot?" Mariah Kelly asked, leaning over his shoulder.
"I don't know, A+ Pictures has started three projects this year, and there is only one and a half in the plan for next year, a small-budget black theme, and the remaining half is the third part of my life, but it depends on whether Universal is satisfied with the sequel box office, so ......"
It stands to reason that next year's plan is not yet filled, and Yeremov has also mentioned this, but he still has doubts in his heart, and he really doesn't want to be ridiculed for being stupid and more money after the fact like the 3DFX time.
"It's early in the morning, isn't it? I want to go home. She touched her forehead and yawned, her body shaking slightly, a little drunk.
"Me too, I thought of a new bridge hee hee ......"
"Nasty, disgusting, I can't help you, those tapes ......"
Song Ya helped his wife into the car and soon returned to his seaside villa, and was woken up by Linda when he was sleeping soundly at about five o'clock in the morning.
"What's wrong?"
Linda didn't answer, pointing to the phone in her hand.
Song Ya came out with her suspiciously, sat on the sofa in the living room, and sobbing came from the receiver of the mobile phone, "Amy? What's wrong? "He's familiar, it's Amy Adams.
I still cried over there and didn't speak.
"Last night her new play premiered at midnight." Linda whispered, "She seems to be very sad and must ask you to listen to the phone." ”
"Oh, isn't it bad at the box office?" Song Ya knew.
"Hmm."
"How bad is it?"
"I'M DONE, APLUS......" She seemed to have collapsed.
"Not really, right? Have a competitor attack you with a scandal? Song Ya glanced at Linda, there was no screening in Chicago, and he was very busy lately, and he hadn't seen Amy's new movie.
"No, nothing, not even talking about it, it's just ...... Attendance was poor. Amy cried.
"The statistics are out?" He asked.
"Not yet, but everyone, everyone in the crew feels it, Hayden said that it can only be ranked tenth in the box office list at most, maybe worse......"
"Haha!"
Song Yale said, "That's really a bit miserable." ”
"Are you so stingy even to comfort me at this time?" Amy was by his reaction.
"It's okay, you are an actress who has won a single box office of more than 100 million, and a commercial youth film with a production cost of less than 20 million can still afford it, and you will not completely lose the opportunity."
So he turned to comfort her, "Aren't you still having an art film released at the end of the year?" During the shoot? Cheer up, perform better, and try to use the performance in that part to get it back. ”
As he was talking, his hand was empty, and he looked up and saw Mariah Carey coming out silently at some point, pulling the phone to his ear, and hearing Amy's voice inside, he immediately pressed the hang up button angrily.
