Chapter 509

Saw Yasen Bernard, Robert Eiger also left the water club and returned to Burbank.

In this way, negotiations between the two sides are actually required to make a quick decision, but he cannot show any anxious attitude or even a tone, otherwise he will definitely not be able to reach a conclusion.

In the future, we should promote these two transactions as quickly as possible based on sufficient confidence and stability.

Universal Pictures will sign an agreement this week. The original plan was to use the reserve funds of Relativity Entertainment to complete the transaction, and the reserve amount was reduced by US$100 million, which is very likely to affect the group's risk resistance.

Now, the funds that completed the transaction have been successfully resolved.

Thinking of this, Robert Iger couldn't help but smile. Although he couldn't get the copyright of "Jurassic Park" that Ronan thought of, he could temporarily not consume the group's financial resources and solve the copyright purchase funds for the "Hulk" and "Fast and Furious" series, which was considered a successful achievement of the goal.

As for whether the "Fast and Furious" series can continue to succeed and whether the "Hulk" will turn around, Robert Iger believes in Ronan's production ability.

He has no doubt about this at all now.

The Hulk is related to the Avengers program. Although "Fast and Furious" is a medium-low investment road racing movie, cars belong to the mainstream culture and there is a lot of potential if done well.

Robert Iger breathed a sigh of relief. Although it was a pity that he had passed by Universal Pictures, this was limited by the objective conditions of relativity entertainment and could not be solved by humans.

Several plans for next year also need to be completed by him as the chief operating officer, and now we need to start preparing.

It is natural to get a promotion and salary increase. The position of CEO Ronan has prepared for him long ago. If the Relativity Entertainment Group can continue to expand in his hands, option rewards will not be a problem.

Robert Iger was very energetic and felt that he was more than ten times better than he was still alive at Walt Disney.

This job change seems to be able to reach the peak of life.

It would be unimaginable if Ronan had refused to stay at Walt Disney.

Three days later, Robert Iger led the way to sign an agreement with Ron Mayer, who represented Universal Pictures, and obtained all copyrights for "Hulk" and "Fast and Furious".

A week later, a loan agreement was reached with NB, and Relativity Entertainment received a five-year interest-free loan of US$100 million.

Although Relativity Entertainment is still creating momentum for the acquisition of Universal Pictures Entertainment Group, it has officially withdrawn from the acquisition competition.

After obtaining the copyrights of the Hulk and Fast and Furious series, Ronan has no action for the time being. The former has to wait until the Avengers plan is launched before it can be used. The separate Hulk movie must be planned well, at least it cannot be filmed too badly, and the former actors must be replaced.

Edward Norton has no problem with acting skills and is very suitable for playing abnormal roles. However, if you cannot sign a long-term contract, you will have to replace them.

Once, because Marvel Studios only took back the Hulk's joint use rights from Universal Pictures, the Hulk could only appear in a co-star situation. The Hulk film alone had to pay Universal Pictures a huge share of the Hulk's share, so there was no Hulk's independent movie released after "Invincible Hulk".

Hulk has many fans, and in Marvel's superhero comics, they are among the first-class superheroes.

Shahai Entertainment has no concerns about Marvel Studios. Now that the copyright is completely in your hands, you can plan the independent Hulk movies well.

For example, the story that the Hulk and Agent Natasha Normanoff have to tell?

As for the "Fast and Furious" series, the second part has just been released this summer, so there is no need to worry about the third part.

That so-called "Tokyo Drift" is a pit, just jump over it.

The former character Han, when he moved to the eighth part, probably couldn't even hold on to the coffin board. Without "Tokyo Drift", he just changed the character.

And Gal Gadot.

Ronan just thought for a moment and quickly threw it behind his head, so he couldn't make mistakes.

In October, Ronan went to East Asia specifically and participated in the premiere of "Infernal Affairs 2" in a certain Hong Kong.

As a rescue work of Xiangjiang movies, since the first one is sold well, the sequel will naturally keep up.

There is no doubt that this is the final glory of the Hong Kong movie.

Ronan has watched countless movies in Xiangjiang, which can be considered a kind of feeling.

After the premiere, Ronan received the script of "Infernal Affairs 3" from Andrew Liu according to the agreement. Although the plot is not as good as the first two, it is also a rare masterpiece of conscience.

After returning to Los Angeles, Ronan handed the script to the Shahai Entertainment Screenwriter Department, and the screenwriter department specially selected personnel to start preparing the script.

The two screenwriters selected have participated in the screenwriter work of "Crime Scene Investigation". Although they are only one of the screenwriter team members, they are very familiar with crime and police and gangster themes.

Moreover, before the transfer, these two people, as the head of the screenwriter team, had just completed the script of "Prison Break".

Ronan is the chief creative director of the group. He is responsible for these tasks. He talked to these two people. The two left Los Angeles and rushed to Boston, which has a strong traditional gang culture, to prepare for the adaptation of the American version of the script.

This is a must.

Ronan asked only the general plot framework to be retained, and other contents including character character setting and gangster culture will be overturned and rewritten.

Ultimately, this movie was filmed for Americans.

The movies under Relativity Entertainment are still released in theaters. The sensational "Saw" last month did not escape the fate of plasma horror films, and it was so popular that it cooled down quickly. On the third weekend of release in North America, the box office on the weekend had fallen to $6.58 million, and the single-day box office on the new weekdays fell directly to around $500,000.

The film's North American box office is currently 64.14 million US dollars, and the global box office has successfully exceeded 100 million.

Although the life cycle of plasma horror films is short, the total investment is less than $10 million, and the box office is more than $100 million. "Saw" will inevitably be ranked in the rankings of various small-cost and large-box office movies in the future.

At the same time, the North American box office of "Pirates of the Caribbean" easily exceeded US$360 million, with a cumulative amount of US$365.88 million.

The global box office was as high as US$733.58 million.

The film sets the highest North American box office record and global box office record in Relativity Entertainment.

Hollywood's island-type films have undoubtedly made a comeback. Many people believe that after years of silence, Pirates' movies are about to usher in a golden age.

But the success of "Pirates of the Caribbean" cannot be copied because Captain Jack Sparrow cannot be copied!

After two months of renovation, Gore Vibinski re-convened the crew and rushed to Rosario, Baja California again to film the two sequels at one time.

The crew of "Pirates of the Caribbean" was divided into two, and the casting group and styling group remained in Los Angeles to recruit new major actors, such as selecting actors from the Pirate Kings.

Ronan was not intervening. The crew had a mature production team and director team, and George Clint was watching him personally. You can rest assured.

The only news he was concerned about was that George Clint accepted Gore Vipensky's suggestion and invited Little Ma Ge to be Captain Xiaofeng.

Of course, before the crew set off, Ronan talked specifically with Gore Vipensky, reminding him not to ignore the fluency of the plot because he paid too much attention to gorgeous special effects.

As for greatly compressing the special effects and spending the camera on narrative, Ronan has no such idea.

Special effects are originally one of the biggest selling points of this type of film.

To be honest, such a movie that tends to be young has the main audience of teenagers, and lively and gorgeous are necessary for the movie.

Ronan holds the final editing rights of the film, and the post-producer of the crew is Jessica Felton, and the power of the film is actually completely under his control.

As long as Captain Jack is here, there will be no need to worry about not having audiences in this film in the next ten years.

Walt Disney once had to overthrow it and start over again. The poor audience reputation of the fourth and fifth parts was only a secondary reason, and the real reason was Johnny Depp.

Johnny Depp was in very poor condition at that time, and related news was everywhere, such as being late and acting like a big shot, and the couple with Amber Hilde was really "the golden wind and jade dew would be better than countless people in the world." The scumbag met a bad girl, and the negative news generated by the two was like Mars colliding with the earth.

Johnson Depp has become a time bomb in the Pirates of the Caribbean series, and it is still completely uncontrollable. No one knows when it will explode, blowing himself up and his huge investment into the sky.

Next is Johnny Depp's pay. Although other films other than Pirates play one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, one by one, Johnny Depp is irreplaceable as Captain Jack Sparrow who lives in the world. The high pay makes the producer vomit blood.

As a typical serialized movie superstar, Johnny Depp once had a super high pay for Robert Downey Jr., but he did not have the professionalism of Robert Downey Jr.'s prodigal son.

As a celebrity actor who works with Disney, the gap between the two is too big.

Another good news is that Embassy Pictures officially launched the DVD discs of "Spy Shadows 2" into the distribution channel a week ago, and sold 4.23 million units in one week of its launch, with sales reaching US$79.21 million.

Starting from "Spider-Man" and "Lord of the Rings" in 2002, the corresponding data of the annual sales champion of the North American DVD market has risen to 10 million sets and sales of more than 200 million US dollars.

Ronan once read a statistics that about five or six years after "Finding Nemo" was released, the total sales of DVDs exceeded 16 million sets, and the total sales reached more than 320 million US dollars.

This seems quite exaggerated, but it is data jointly released by several third parties.

It is not an exaggeration to say that between 2002 and 2012, Hollywood Film Company made profits based on DVDs.
