The Best Entertainment Era

The six major Hollywood companies have basically been divided up, Robert Iger continued Ronan's words: The only one that has really developed from a studio to an entertainment media group is Disney, but no matter which one it is, we want to swallow it. difficulty.

Ronan said: Yes, if we are strong enough, the ultimate goal of Disney's plan will not be what it is now.

In the final analysis, Relativity Entertainment is still not strong enough, otherwise it would directly acquire Disney.

Robert Iger said a very simple and simple sentence: At this stage, if we swallow Disney, not only will we be exhausted, but we may lose more than we gain.

Ronan nodded slightly: Snake Tunxiang is not suitable for us.

If Relativity Entertainment is willing to sell a large number of Netflix shares and make deals with Wall Street, it is not impossible to raise funds to acquire Walt Disney.

The problem is that not long after Netflix went public, its stock price has been rising rapidly. Relativity Entertainment gave up its controlling stake and lost significantly more.

We need half a year to a year to digest the gains from the previous plan. Robert Iger, as the chief operating officer of Relativity Entertainment, has a clear enough understanding of the entire group company: We will develop rapidly for about three years to accumulate strength. Then Wait for the right opportunity to see if one of the Big Six will go wrong.

Ronan said: Opportunities need to wait patiently, but also require us to actively create.

Hearing this, combined with Ronan's previous actions, Robert Iger inevitably had some associations: Do you have specific goals and targeted actions?

Ronan tapped his fingers lightly, thought for a while, and said, Bob, you should know that in the first half and end of last year, 20th Century Fox snatched several movie projects from us.

Robert Iger said: I know, Roland Emmerich's Ten Thousand Years Before History...well, you released the news at the time that you wanted to make a movie about Exodus and Robin Hood, and the result was 20 years ago. Century Fox was the first to approve the project. Also, in the blacklist plan you proposed at the end of last year, a disaster film project about a storm was also intercepted by Twentieth Century Fox...

He looked at Ronan: Is there a problem with these projects?

I'm not sure either. Ronan said roughly, From my personal point of view, I'm not very optimistic about their future.

Ordinary people say such things, naturally no one pays attention to them,

But these words came out of Ronan's mouth, which was completely different. Robert Iger said seriously: As far as I know, each of these four projects has a production budget of more than 100 million U.S. dollars, and the twentieth century Fox accounts for the vast majority of the investment, and including the publicity and distribution costs that are impossible to find anyone to share, the total investment will be close to or even exceed 200 million US dollars. If the group fails in a short period of time, it will inevitably affect the funds of the 20th Century Fox Film Company chain, and may even strain the entire company’s liquidity.”

Ronan said: These are still not enough.

Yeah. Robert Iger is very rational: After all, they are 20th Century Fox. Unless we encounter other major crises at the same time, we may have a chance.

It is impossible for Ronan to tell the things that have not been ascertained, and he simply asked: You keep an eye on 20th Century Fox to see if there is a chance in the future.

Robert Iger responded, Okay.

Ronan's advantage lies in general direction and decision-making planning, but the specific operation and execution requires a professional manager with outstanding abilities like Robert Iger.

Robert Iger has fully proved his ability and professional ethics. Ronan's trust in him is actually no different from that of old players such as Robert Lee and George Clint.

At this stage, and even for a long time to come, Relativity Entertainment may not find a better CEO than Robert Iger.

Soon, Ronan will negotiate with Robert Iger to renew his contract, extending Robert Iger's term as far as possible to 2015 or even longer.

If you want to retain outstanding talents, you must pay real money.

In addition to salary increases, Ronan also prepared new option rewards.

In a business society like the United States, it is never new for CEOs to be poached with higher pay.

Not only Robert Iger, but many high-level executives of the Relativity Entertainment subsidiary will discuss contract renewal in the next stage.

The management maintains a relatively stable situation, which is very important to the development of the entire group company.

Back at the office, Connie sent this month's bestseller list.

Ronan made a cup of tea first, and then browsed quickly, but in this issue of the rankings, the books that really impressed him have already been copyrighted.

For example, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire ranked first, such as David Mitchell's sci-fi Cloud Atlas.

Connie marked some of them based on what she knew. For example, behind Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire and Cloud Atlas, it was marked that the copyright belonged to Warner Bros.

Needless to say the former, Ronan also has an impression of the latter, because these are the Wachowski brothers and sisters? The works directed by them are also one of the works that hit the street continuously in their director career.

The careers of these two directors have fully demonstrated what it means to be a debut is the peak and decline step by step.

It seems that after Cloud Atlas, they no longer directed movies, but instead filmed TV series.

Frankly speaking, that TV series has inherited the usual advantages of the Wachowski sisters. It has a very big brain hole and looks very attractive.

Maybe it's because they can't turn back on that road of philosophical speculation, or maybe the audience has been completely tired of their works over the years, and the TV series was finally cut off.

After reading the bestseller list, Ronan received a call from Spielberg. The old man asked again if he had any specific plans for directing the film that he had previously agreed upon.

For the time being, Ronan hasn't found a project suitable for Spielberg to direct.

Once, after 2010, Ronan was very impressed with Spielberg's films.

Many of the films directed by Spielberg are actually not too successful. It seems that Spielberg's films are outdated.

Ronan remembers the two most clearly, Lincoln and Player 1.

The reason why the former is remembered is that on the one hand, it is called Spielberg’s flashback work by many media, and it is recognized as a rare commercial masterpiece with political themes; To the third Oscar for Best Actor.

The latter was known as a big carnival for game fans due to the relationship of many video games. There were countless game memes in it. Ronan couldn't understand what those memes or pictures represented, so he checked the detailed information on the Internet.

Therefore, Ronan also knew that this was an adaptation of Lincoln. He vaguely remembered that the production budget was as high as nearly 200 million U.S. dollars, and the North American box office seemed to be less than 150 million U.S. dollars.

This film should perform well overseas, but the overseas box office share is far lower than that in North America. Coupled with the huge publicity and distribution costs, it is estimated that it will be difficult for Player 1 to make money at the box office, and it can only rely on peripherals if it wants to make a profit.

But it involves so many copyrights, and the surrounding area is also very troublesome.

Ronan is cautious about Player No. 1, but he also found the original work, which probably hasn't been published yet, and there is no similar VR game theme.

It's really hard to say whether it's a good deal to spend the director's contract with Spielberg on such a film whose future is uncertain, and the surrounding copyright is complicated, which makes the profit doubtful.

The most important thing is that it is impossible to reduce expenses for this type of theme. To achieve the desired effect, it is necessary to invest enough funds for special effects production.

Ronan did not make the final decision, everything depends on the situation of the original book.

Besides, Ronan has great doubts about spending more than 200 million US dollars to invest in a game movie project.

Like Brother Bao’s game adaptation movie, Ronan can easily finalize it, because the production budget is only a few million dollars, and the total investment in the announcement is only a little over ten million U.S. dollars. With the current momentum of Brother Bao, it is completely worth it Investment, because the iron fans that Brother Bao has attracted on the Internet are enough to ensure that he can return his capital.

If Bao Ge is asked to shoot a game project with an investment of tens of millions of dollars, he will lose 100% of it.

Of course, Brother Bao and Spielberg are incomparable.

After all, Brother Bao and Paul Anderson are known as the two most outstanding game-adapted film directors in Hollywood.

Brother Bao's true love for game adaptation movies is just a little less than his love for Blizzard.

Maybe in the future, Brother Bao can direct Player No. 1. Various counterfeit versions of the game may be very interesting, and with the production model of Hollywood movies, specious counterfeit does not need copyright authorization.

The special effects that cost millions of dollars will definitely make gamers cry.

Super spicy eyes!

Ronan found Connie and asked, How much do you know about Lincoln's literary works?

I've seen some. Connie replied quickly: This is the most deified president in the United States. There are too many works about him, ranging from political documents to political documentaries, and there are also various magically modified versions.

Ronan said directly: You collect as many literary works as possible about Lincoln, and make a content outline for me.

There are too many works about Lincoln, and it is impossible for Ronan to read them one by one. The best way is to browse the relevant content through the outline made by the assistant team.

Okay. Connie replied, and then asked, When will it be?

Ronan said, The sooner the better.

Connie replied: I will mobilize my staff to prepare.

There are too many literary works of Lincoln, probably more than the speculation about the truth of Kennedy's assassination.

Ronan stayed in the company all morning. In the afternoon, the Relativity Building suddenly became lively. A crew from Shahai Entertainment entered Century City to film on-site in the Relativity Building.

Among them, the most conspicuous one is Michael Bay with a long face!

Bombay is ready to wreak havoc on the Relativity Building in the movie.
