The Forbidden City and Lotus have long been eyeing "The Terminator".

Although the box office of the first part is not too high, and the box office results overseas are also very average, that is, the domestic one is slightly better. But Lotus Pictures will not forget what it was like to be in "Bourne's Identity 1" back then, and the Forbidden City will not forget their "Hurricane Rescue".

So when they determined that there was a sequel to "Terminator", they found Gao Runqing.

As the owner of a small company, Gao Runqing naturally has no reason to refuse the goodwill from the two giants, and he also knows that if he still wants to rely on Gao Mu Pictures to fight alone, I'm afraid that Lao Bai will have no reason to continue to cooperate with you - last time it was because of Wei Xiaolin, what is it this time?

So not only did he agree to cooperate, Gao Runqing even took the initiative to promise that if there was "Terminator 2", Takagi Pictures would hand over the dominance of the movie!

"Especially the issuance part, which will also be handed over to two large companies!"

Although he was very reluctant in his heart, when faced with Sun Peng's inquiry, Gao Runqing still said his choice with a spring breeze on his face: "We, Takagi Pictures, will act as an assistant, mainly to help in filming and domestic distribution......"

“…… Terrible! ”

After listening to Gao Runqing's words, Sun Peng couldn't help but give a thumbs up.

Although the box office results of "Terminator 1" are not very amazing, don't forget, its cost is also low! So for Takagi Pictures, if it can be made into a series, it will be a long-term meal ticket, enough to support their company. But Gao Runqing was able to hand over the dominant power, and even the domestic distribution right, which is quite bold!

Let the Lotus or the Forbidden City be issued, of course, the benefits are greater.

After all, whether there can be 20% or 10% of the film schedule at the time of release really depends on the strength of the distribution company; And if you want to promote movies overseas, let alone small companies like Takagi, I am afraid that even some medium-sized and even large film companies will find it difficult to do it, and you can only count on giants such as Lotus......

Looking at Sun Peng's thumbs up, Gao Runqing felt a little bitter in his heart.

What can he do if he doesn't hand over the reins? Or what can Takagi Pictures do? Even if Wei Xiaolin and Lao Bai have a good relationship, they can't guarantee that they will agree to continue to make "Terminator 2", right?

And in "Terminator 1" that year, the two sides signed an "overlord" contract.

Takagi Pictures only got the filming rights and distribution rights of "Terminator 1", but the follow-up copyright is still in the hands of Lao Bai. In other words, if Sun Peng writes the script of "Terminator 2", he can hand it over to any other film company to shoot without saying any hello to Gao Runqing.

Even Wei Xiaolin couldn't say anything about this.

After all, people were willing to give you "Terminator 1" at the beginning, all to see Wei Xiaolin's face, and then this movie Takagi Pictures did make a lot of money.

"Okay, so be it!"

was very satisfied with Gao Runqing's knowledge of current affairs, Sun Peng no longer hung the other party's appetite, and directly took out his mobile phone and dialed Wei Xiaolin's phone: "Brother Wei, where is it?" I'm here at Mr. Gao Runqing. ”

“……”

"Yes, I'm talking about Terminator 2, and I'm about the same as I am."

“……”

"Haha, of course it's you who direct, when our "Hero" is released, let's talk about "Terminator 2" again...... Haha, this time I wrote you a super big production script, and after a few years of experience, you can try it......"

……

Receiving Sun Peng's call, not only Wei Xiaolin was quite excited, but even Sun Ya was also excited.

This stinky boy, but he hasn't taken a script out for a long time.

The recent "Police Story", just listening to the name, seems to be expected, and at first glance, the list of actors can scare people to death, but after really reading the script, Sun Ya's face suddenly darkened - most stars are cameos, not to mention, the movie is still a comedy related to the police!

This thing is in the Chinese New Year stalls, how can it get a high box office?

But "Terminator 2" is different, the factor of science fiction + action movie is definitely the genre that Sun Peng is best at. And Sun Ya has heard him talk about this movie a lot, and it seems that Sun Peng attaches great importance to it!

What does this mean? It shows that it's another big production!

So Sun Yaxing began to rush to ...... with Takagi Pictures No, it should be said that negotiations began with Lotus and Forbidden City Pictures. After the great success of the little wizard and the little magician, Lao Bai's script market is further bullish, which also gives her the confidence to increase the share ratio again. It's just that because Sun Peng's share figure is already the top in China, the movie giants will not easily increase it for him, and how many years have broken the rules formed, so it is conceivable that the negotiations will inevitably last for a long time.

Fortunately, for Sun Peng, he was not in a hurry.

"Terminator 2" is not a small production like "Terminator 1", especially Sun Peng, in addition to wanting to show the epic momentum of the original, he also hopes to go further in the scenes and special effects to make up for the shortcomings in production, so the preparation must be more sufficient.

In addition to the script, there is also investment and casting.

If you want to shoot the effect that Sun Peng wants, the investment must be indispensable, and I am afraid that you will have to discuss it slowly with several companies; The preparation of the actors is indispensable, for example, the male and female protagonists are very strong types, and they must be professionally fitted before filming; Another example is the savior who is only eleven or twelve years old, and it will definitely not be so easy to find a suitable little actor.

"If you want to write a script, it will be written in October at the earliest."

After Fang Lanshen called, Sun Peng said with a smile: "Next, the director and actors need to ponder the script, and at the same time, they also need to coordinate props, costumes and special effects, etc., which will take a long time to prepare, so if everything goes well, it is more appropriate to start filming next spring......

"What do you mean...... Chinese New Year stalls? ”

Listening to Sun Peng's words, Fang Lanshen asked rhetorically.

In fact, it is a simple multiple-choice question, either it is a summer vacation file or a Chinese New Year file, and the key depends on the time when the movie is completed. In Fang Lanshen's view, if "Terminator 2" starts filming next spring, I am afraid that the release date will have to be postponed to the Chinese New Year.

"Next year's Lunar New Year? Of course not! ”

Regarding Fang Lanshen's statement, Sun Peng immediately shook his head and smiled: "That is too hasty, it is difficult to ensure the quality of the movie!" If you want me to say, the summer vacation of the next year will be more suitable......"
