American Fortune Life

Chapter 998: Striking the Rabbit with Grass

In a French restaurant in Manhattan, New York.

“Honey, tonight, Wendy invited us to a film premiere in New York. ”

Ivana put half the steak in the plate, half the beef in Andy's plate with a fork, and said.

Andy stuffed a piece of beef in his mouth and chewed it and frowned, "What movie? She still can't sit. Are we going to the front desk? ”

“HK's KarwaiWong's Blueberry Night, starring Nora Jones, Judello, Natalie and Rachel Weiss, looks like Ziyizhang will be there with Vivi, and Wendy will be there, before calling to invite us both.” Ivana had heard about Wendy before and told Andy again.

Andy just wanted to say no, but seeing Ivana with her big eyes blinking across the street, she had to smile, “You decide. ”

“Then go check it out. I haven't seen Wendy in a while. Thank you, darling.” Ivana immediately had a happy sweet smile on her face, reaching down to grab Andy's hand and softly said.

“As long as you're happy...” Andy didn't finish his speech, his phone on the side of the table shook dong up, couldn't help but slightly frown, put down the knife and fork, picked up the napkin and wiped his lower lip corner, took the phone and looked down, it was the assistant's.

“Say it.”

“Sorry to bother you, boss, but it was Mr. Bradley, CEO of Paramount, who, not knowing your private phone, knocked down the work phone and said it was important... ”

“Ignore him. We'll talk in the afternoon. What's the big deal? That's not important to him at all, I'm afraid. Okay, that's it.” After that, Andy hung up and smiled ridiculously at the corner of his mouth, continuing his meal.

Ivana also shook her head and laughed at her boyfriend. Sometimes there was no way to Xing. “Go home early in the afternoon and get ready. The premiere was still lively and the main creators would attend. ”

Andy couldn't help but eat and say, “It doesn't matter, I can have my suit. As long as you're beautiful, Wendy should invite you on her own initiative. We're here. Huh, that's going to rob the movie. ”

“Giggle.” Ivana laughed softly, "Wendy and the international chapter will jointly open a movie company. Wendy also hopes to show some more resources. Heard there will be a lot of Dynasty media. ”

“Ha!" Andy chuckled, "Jointly owned a movie company? It depends on the international chapter and vivi for a long time, Vindi Murdoch... ”

Andy shook his head quite deliberately. Ivana heard Andy's words and shook her head slightly. Immediately after she figured it out, she shook her head, laughing: "The love affair between Vivi, the major shareholder of the International Seal and Warner films, was led by Vivi, who met on her yacht and wiped out love for HUO. ”

“Huh.” Andy's eyes flashed with a strange look at Ivana's gutter: “This woman really likes to be hauled. ”

Ivana picked an eyebrow and didn't notice the weird look on her boyfriend's face, "She just likes to run her circle this way... ”

“Mm-hmm.” Andy just said softly, no longer exploring the topic. For this woman, Wendy, he was sincerely unfaithful. The purpose of xing was too obvious, and the city almost wrote on her face.

After lunch, Andy sent Ivana back to the company, and he returned to the Newsweek building, and as soon as the elevator door opened, he saw the three assistants waiting at the door, headed by Tory, hearing the greetings of the three, nodded slightly, and walked to the office.

Sitting on the boss's chair, Andy slammed some slack, watching him hang his suit, his little assistant in the white shirt black dress twisted his waist and walked up to him, reaching out and patting her, saying: "Sleep with me for a nap. ”

Tory's eyes flashed with colour. Naturally, she couldn't help it. After all, she had been separated from the Demon King for almost a month. After meeting him, after eating a full meal, nothing happened to her. After all, the Bad Queen took possession all day.

In the lounge, Andy was looking down at the assistant and helping him undress, and he heard the phone on the windowsill ringing.

Tory walked over to pick it up and take a look, and said to Andy, who had already taken off guang and laid down on the wound: "Or is it Paramount CEO's phone? ”

Andy reached out and answered the phone, lying flat on his back facing the sky, pointing his finger at the assistant, indicating that it was only then that he answered the phone.

Little assistant mei had a silky tian down the bright red chun...

“ Um! "Andy listened to the other person's story, and suddenly he said softly," Well, then take a deep breath, calm down and say, "Mr. Grey, you shouldn't be looking for me, you should be looking for Carl directly, he bought the Lost Z City movie right, seriously, it wasn't you who called to tell me that I didn't even know about it. What, you mean cooperate? I'm still saying, this kind of thing doesn't work for me, so why don't you just go talk to Carl... ”

Andy's mouth curled, and the expression on his face became weirder and weirder. After a slight hiss, he reached out and patted the top of Tory's head, Nima, like wearing a flying talisman, accelerated instantly, almost flashing.

And listen to the phone call of Paramount CEO Brad Grey, even laughing at the explanations and suggestions, Andy doesn't want to listen to the idea, let alone "Lost Z City" such a powerful real adventure story in the West adaptation right, is the general novel adaptation right, into the nonpuking ridiculous bird copyright company, without paying a huge price, don't think about getting it.

Not to mention the more difficult Carl, since he became the new Hollywood gatekeeper, the more the trend toward a rolling knife rou, no profit involved, definitely a good guy, good friend, but once there is a benefit problem, don't think about taking a little advantage of him, without peeling off the skin, the bastard Carl will hate to smoke his own mouth.

After a few sentences, Andy hung up the phone, smashed his mouth a few times, picked up his phone and googled the internet, watched the story of "Lost Z City", couldn't help but look in front of him. Before listening to the other person's brief introduction, now it seems that Carl's eyes are really poisonous, and the shooter is fast enough.

The manuscript comes from the hand of writer David Grayne, and the story is based on real life stories, mainly about exploring a mysterious ancient city lost in the Amazon of South America.

This ancient city has been covered in an unknown and mysterious mist, and inside information about this "lost city” is contained in the Royal Archives of Portugal, but there are no specific coordinates, known only to be in a jungle in the state of Mato Grosso in western Brazil.

British explorer Colonel Percy Foster attempted to find the lost city known as "City Z”, but mysteriously disappeared with his expedition in 1925.

Over the next 70 years, countless explorers have tried to find Foster's trail, including the Brazilian expedition in 1996.

Andy couldn't help laughing when he saw a few searches.

It turns out that after Brad Pitt expressed his interest in participating in and producing Lost Z City in an interview, the Paramount Film Industry wanted to take over the film production rights first, but unfortunately, Carl, who was looking everywhere to acquire the copyright, had already bought the film and television copyright like a rabbit with grass.

Andy knows that the Mockingjay Copyright Company is no longer a small company of three or two kittens, and Carl has set up a department to look for valuable goals every day in the world of novels, scripts, fame, and notoriety are all goals of acquisition. After all, the set of 'IPs' instilled by Andy are designed to make content of long-term vitality and commercial value!

The key is that Andy came this way, and IP, which is the profit of intellectual property, is undoubtedly a very amazing asset, which makes Carl dedicate IP to the company's struggle and pursuit. The acquisition of copyright is almost a little crazy. Now that many movie companies in Hollywood have joined this war to steal IP resources, Carl has made a lot of people hate itch. You know, once Carl sees the IP, he really dares to smash it with money, and the competitors who dare not smash it can only slap Xiong's curse and spat.

Whenever this happens, Carl always looks despicably at his opponents, even the anti-lip ideas are disobeyed. The best response to these defeats will be to ignore them. Copyright is the greatest success. The pan-entertainment industry norms he has said to Andy have long been upheld for truth, IP is king, channel is king, marketing is king!
