MTL - Movie Master-Chapter 981 Leverage strength

It is completely impossible for "Invincible Hulk" to stick to the mysterious line like "Fury Road". If Lance continues to block the news, the all-pervasive paparazzi will only annoy Burbank's set. On the contrary, Lance should make reasonable use of the media, choose the right time to reveal some inside stories and tidbits, and even interact with the "Iron Man" crew to warm up the movie layer by layer.

However, the timing of breaking the news is crucial to Lance.

The linkage between the two works of "Iron Man" and "Invincible Hulk", Lance believes that the old foxes in the film studio can smell the abnormality, even if they can't see the entire blueprint of the Marvel Universe, they can still feel the chaos The film industry is trying to use Marvel's adaptation of the film as a breakthrough, so the next step is for the Eight Immortals to show their magical powers.

As Disney, which acquired Marvel in the previous life, Lance was not too worried at this time, because Chaos Films held a cooperation contract for five works. Before "Iron Man" and "Invincible Hulk" were released, Marvel Films The industry will not act rashly for the time being, and Disney will not take risks easily; relatively speaking, Warner Bros., which holds the DC Universe in its hands, is a serious concern, but don't say that Chaos Pictures has just risen now, even if the other five major film companies join forces, Nor can they decide the filming plan of Warner Bros., as long as Barry Meyer bites the bullet, it is their business to shoot what works.

So, the question is: Does Warner Bros. have the guts? With "Superman Returns" flopping at the box office, how would they choose? Promptly try again? Or wait for the box office results of "Iron Man" to be released before making a judgment? Will they be too impatient to take an easy risk other than the upcoming filming of The Dark Knight?

Lance's original plan was to delay for a while. He would use the DC universe and "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" to contain Barry for a while, showing his intention to cooperate, and then using the Coen Brothers as a cover to sacrifice "No Country for Old Men". It is a big banner, whether to play or not depends on the second, the focus is to show that the friendship of the Coen brothers makes Lance unable to refuse, and he tactfully rejects Warner Brothers; or use Edward Norton as a cover, claiming that "Invincible Hulk" is Edward's favorite Project, persuaded Lance many times before and after, successfully moved Lance... and so on, and then announced the shooting plan.

On the one hand, it is to make the situation more chaotic, confuse the public, and cut off the close connection between "Iron Man" and "The Incredible Hulk" as much as possible. I hope that the more competitors and the more complicated the situation are, the better the effect will be; On the one hand, it is also waiting for the civil strife of Warner Bros. It is estimated that the loss of the summer troika will be officially completed in October and November. This will have an impact on Warner Bros.’s filming plan for the next year or even three years, and even the board of directors. There will also be doubts about Barry internally, which will ease their courage to develop the DC universe. After all, "Harry Potter" is their trump card series, and the box office drive is still unmatched. There is no need to develop the DC universe impulsively, you can wait.

But the plan couldn't keep up with the changes, not just because of Dylan Wilde's siege, nor because of Robert Downey Jr.'s public relations crisis. In fact, Lance clearly knew that maybe the other helmers didn't know that much, but Barry Meyer had enough knowledge of the DC universe and the Marvel universe, so it was almost impossible for him to completely hide the Huaan Brothers. It is an impossible task. Warner Bros. will put the DC universe on the agenda. It will be a matter of time. His efforts will only slow down this process. Here we go.

Under such circumstances, Lance smelled an opportunity-an opportunity to firmly control Robert Downey Jr., because Lance clearly knew how profitable the "Iron Man" series was, not only the series of movies, but also the entire Peripheral development system, Iron Man related products have created hundreds of millions of wealth, Robert Downey Jr.'s self-deprecating, mischievous, and funny contributions are indispensable. Instead of defending against Warner Bros.—the effect is estimated to be limited, it is better to focus on developing itself. If you can sign multiple movie contracts with low salary in one go, just like Chris Evans, at least it can save Chaos Pictures. 100 million to 150 million salary expenditure.

Of course, Hollywood contracts are not so rigid. For example, Chris Evans, although he signed a six-movie contract with an ultra-low salary of 300,000 yuan, in fact, when it came to "Avengers 2", his The film's salary still rose to 5.9 million, second only to Robert Downey Jr. and Scarlett Johansson. The film companies also understand that if they keep squeezing the actors, the cooperation will not last long, so within a reasonable range, they will also choose to make concessions. Once "Iron Man" becomes popular, Robert Downey Jr. will definitely not give up easily.

However, this is still crucial for Chaos Films, which has no financial support from Wall Street. From 100 million to 150 million, this is equivalent to the cost of a commercial film, and it is still a big production. Different positions naturally have different considerations. As a producer, as the helm of Chaos Films, how to achieve the most profitable effect at the cheapest cost is the core focus of his constant thinking. Identity is soft-hearted.

Therefore, after making a brief judgment and weighing in his mind, Lance made a deal with Dylan decisively.

He weighed the film in his hand, such things in Hollywood are not uncommon at all, not to mention that Dylan did not capture evidence proving that Robert Downey Jr. directly took/drugs, even if he did, it is not a serious matter Well, the point is when such negative news broke out and who it was aimed at.

Robert came out of rehab/drug/drug again last year, and spent nearly a year and a half to reshape his image, relying on his connections to star in many independent films, and bit by bit reversed the negative image of the past ten years, and now "Steel "Hero" is his best chance to turn around. Regardless of the success or failure of the movie, as long as he can play a superhero, it means that he has truly reformed himself. Although it is said that the wall is overthrown by everyone, people are always looking forward to the return of "The Prodigal Son Turns Back Without Money", and his future career development curve will be completely different.

At such a stall, the weight of this roll of film is worth a thousand dollars.

After being separated from Dylan, Lance walked back into the car, and after driving home, he dialed the mobile phone number. The phone rang for a while, and the other party answered, "Hey, let's see who gave the call. I'm on the phone? Isn't this the man that the whole of Hollywood is following now?" Terrence Cox's slippery voice came from the receiver.

Lance walked under the parasol in the garden and sat down on the beach chair, "So, are you also following my whereabouts?"

"Of course. Honestly, I have a project right now, Sidney Pollack, John-Logan, Alan Rickman, Helena Bonham-Carter, Anne Hathaway , Russell Crowe, Annette Bening, and Meryl Streep are all considering the possibility of participating, how about it, are you interested in taking the lead? As long as you nod, we can commit in two weeks Pre-production, of course, the premise is that you are satisfied with the script." Terrence was like a machine gun, and he said a lot, and his skill and professionalism at his fingertips were indeed commendable. Here's a surprise, let me give you a hint: West End, musicals, famous plays. I think you'll be satisfied."

Lance raised his brows lightly, could it be "Sweeney Todd"? He has almost forgotten about this work. When he was in Berlin, Laurie Macdonald solemnly invited him to take over this project, but for the sake of the Marvel universe, he did not take it into consideration at all. After going around for so long, he is still the first choice for this work, but there is not much difference between now and before. Lance will not accept other directors' works in a short time, even if it is "No Country for Old Men", he is now I haven't replied to the Coen Brothers yet, "Invincible Hulk" is the top priority~www.novelbuddy.com~ Hehe, compared to me, you should care more about the whereabouts of your artists. Lance stepped past Terrance's invitation and got back to his point.

Terrence's temples couldn't help but twitch. Why did Lance's words sound like he meant something? But Terrance was not so easy to be led by the nose directly, "So, you mean, you are going to fire Cole-Grand and come to our company?" Interpreted in another way.

"This is a way of interpretation." Lance did not refute, nodded his chin with a smile, and gave affirmation, "But my interpretation is a little different. For example... take care of your/mother/artist, don't say that you haven't talked to him yet Our crew has signed a contract. Even if we signed a contract, I can fire him directly. The paparazzi caught him with a drug/dealer/zi and came to my door to blackmail me. If this kind of shit/shit happens again, I will Let him know what desire/immortal/desire/death is."

The sharpness and sharpness in Lance's words were revealed, and it fell like a gust of wind and rain. Terence's expression suddenly became serious, his brows were slightly frowned, and his head was working quickly. Although Lance didn't explain the ins and outs clearly, a few words were enough to put the whole thing together, and Terence couldn't help but gritted his teeth and cursed secretly, such a thing is huge for the reputation and reputation of the brokerage company The shock, because the actor's personal problems affected the crew, the brokerage company had no room to argue, Terrence's temples began to ache, but he still suppressed his anger and calmly replied, "Are you sure this is true?" of it?" Terrence still needed to confirm it for safety reasons.

"You can call to confirm." Lance's understatement made Terence's heart sink.
