Chicago 1990

Chapter 631

"Anything else in Hollywood?"

David Fincher hasn't given a final answer yet, Song Ya accompanies Mariah Carey to her godmother Patty Labelle's villa in Beverly Hills to discuss the wedding next month.

So fast, only more than a month is left, and I’m basically throwing a hand at her to work, and now things are coming, looking at the fiancee who is devoted to studying the guest roster with Patty Rabel, I feel guilty in my heart. Up.

"The old partners of Columbia Pictures' Gubell and Peters fought on the eve of their departure. After Gubbel succeeded in getting Peters out, he began to negotiate with Sony. If Sony wanted him to leave the contract, he had to bleed. Last year What happened at the end of the year was exposed last month."

Yeremov had a lot of resentment towards his old club, and said cheerfully in a sneer tone: "Sony agreed to his terms and continued to inject capital into his newly opened Mandalay Entertainment Company, almost as if he was kneeling and giving away people. Going. He has been in Columbia Pictures for five years. The outside world speculates that his personal assets have doubled five to ten times. Sony just wrote off Columbia Pictures’ bad debts of $2.7 billion at the beginning of the year in order to make the new helm no worries. "

"Tsk, this book is so terrible..." Song Ya slapped her tongue.

"Guber’s senior managers have done this. In the future, they can only start their own companies. There is absolutely no daring to use it. But it’s worth the vote. He has already entered the ranks of the top rich and started to prepare. Buying a baseball team to operate and enjoy life, just because the major league baseball is still suspended due to labor disputes, the team is cheaper, and he seems to be going to buy more."

Yeremov said.

"Who will be the new helm of Columbia Pictures?"

The two talked as they walked, and finally stopped on the lawn outside the villa. Song Ya asked, "It's not Motura, right?"

“Benzi is still seesawing with Sony North Mi’s President Shuerhofer. Motura himself is sure to be very willing. His Sony Entertainment President can manage Columbia Pictures in name, but he has no real power in Hollywood. Of course, it’s possible. Not big, Benzi doesn’t trust Shuerhoff and his people now, and Motula is as strong as Gübel..."

Yeremov guessed: “They may even send their notebook executives directly to airborne, or sell the company like Panasonic, even though they are doing better in the electronics industry than Panasonic, and they can still afford it.”

"Why is Gu Bell so powerful?" Song Ya asked.

"He has been a well-known producer for a long time. In the 1970s, he produced many popular and popular films for Columbia Pictures. A taxi driver with a production cost of 1.9 million, starring Robert De Niro, and a box office of 2.8 Millions, 28 million in the 1970s..."

Yeremov recalled, "Later he left Columbia Pictures, and he independently produced good films such as Midnight Express. The Midnight Express cost 2.3 million yuan, with a box office of 35 million dollars, and won seven Oscar nominations. Oh, yes, do you think Harvey Weinstein is a good player? Wrong! Gübel is the best, but Harvey Weinstein’s Miramax is not one of the top seven in Hollywood, and it appears to the outside world to perform It's too eye-catching and not'normal'. In the past five years, Columbia Pictures has paid miserably, but according to statistics, its films have received a total of 120 Oscar nominations, ranking first among the seven."

"So that's it..."

Song Ya was taught another lesson.

Yeremov continued: "If he wasn't one of the top masters in Hollywood, how could Sony cry and cried that he would rather spend 200 million dollars to dig him with the company and dig him from Warner? A lawsuit worth nearly one billion dollars."

"So, will Schulhof also leave this year?"

Song Ya cared about his own affairs. Although Shuerkhov compromised when he drove Motula away, the old man should have a very bad impression of him.

"I don't know about this. He seems to have passed the test temporarily. Schulhof belongs to Norio Oga, the father of CD, within Sony. Although I heard that some book executives behind him call him Oga's son, a Hollywood executive. He called him an unlicensed practitioner, but Oga Norio just became the chairman and CEO of Sony's head office. Sony founder Akio Morita and Ibuka are in bad health. Oga is in control. He might prefer to continue to pay for compensation. Acknowledge that you have lost face when you look at others."

As a former mischief, Yeremov still knows the book very well, "You may not understand, the boss, the office politics of the Oriental is not the same as the game in the United States, and he is very particular about allegiance."

Emmmm...

Song Yanu made no rebuttal.

"My dear, bye, I'm going to meet a friend."

At this time Mariah Carey led the assistant hurriedly out.

"See... who? You won't take me?" Song Ya asked her blankly.

"No, no, don't come." She didn't look back, "Yelemov, you, follow me."

"It must be the Xingmeng Tears Project."

Yeremov helped to explain, “I’ve been helping her stare at 20th Century Fox recently. Don’t worry about the boss, she will definitely get cheated, but as long as I’m here, Fox Pictures won’t be too much.” He took the opportunity. Take credit.

"I know."

Hollywood is not polite to singers. I was actually a little bit stunned by the global when I danced my life project. Otherwise, no matter how many layers of exploitation, the production cost of 12 million was sold at the box office of more than 130 million. , By no means will the main producer get a profit of only five million dollars...

In fact, you can understand the operating methods of the recording industry. For example, Lori's commemorative album, A+ Records has some seemingly reasonable and legal means to make the money not reflected in the final profit.

As far as the singer is concerned, the publisher can accept it as long as it is not too excessive. After all, the distribution channel is in their hands, and the project risk of the singer is particularly high.

"Then I should find something to do?" Song Ya didn't want to stay alone at Patillabell's house.

"You can take the time to see Little Robb. Miss Kelly and I are going to start detailed negotiations with Fox Pictures today. It will not take a short time."

Yeremov proposed before leaving.

"Uh, forget, I won't go today."

A guilty conscience, "I will let Hayden take me to dance out the crew of the sequel to my life."

Song Ya and them left here, let Old Mike pick up Shanghai Deng, and under the guidance of Linda, they drove all the way to a building in downtown Los Angeles.

Universal’s Simberg moves very fast. The sequel’s main creator has long been determined. Now it’s in the dance rehearsal stage. Director Stephen Gyllenhaal, his wife is one of the producers, and daughter Maggie Gyllenhaal has not found the starring role. The role of the girlfriend next to the heroine is probably similar to Taraji in the first movie. The son is a little handsome. The producer and Yeremov of Universal are worried that the hero Gosling will be robbed of the limelight, and they firmly unite together. One happy family who was on the battlefield was torn apart.

Of course, for the dance part, Anne Fletcher now has the absolute right to speak. As the dancer who made the two big-selling movies of My Life and Geek in Disguise last year, she has become popular in Hollywood.

Her former boss, Shankman, refused to dance my life and became the dancer of Don Juan (born lover). That movie was about the same time as dance my life, but it hasn’t been released yet. Johnny Depp and Fei Tang Nawei, who have been in love with the rumored man and woman, did not cooperate enough in the Arizona Dream project. They went to the crew to continue the front line. They don't know what his new girlfriend Kate Moss would think.

"1234, 5678, very good, let's do it again..."

Anne Fletcher was intently taking Gosling, Jennifer Love Hewitt, Maggie Gyllenhaal and others to practice, Song Ya and Hayden stood quietly at the door and watched.

I heard that when Disney chose a position for the Mickey Mouse Club, there were thousands of children competing for a position. The male protagonist Gosling can be selected. He looks handsome and can dance well, but the actions are a bit too regular and too'Broadway'. At present, there is still a distance from the unrestrained expression of street dance.

MGM’s children’s company program is far less influential than Mickey Mouse Club, but Jennifer Love Hewitt is indeed much more beautiful than Fergie. It’s no wonder she can get resources that Fergie can’t get. This girl looks Winning with freshness and naturalness, good at first sight, the more you look at it, the more comfortable it is, the more durable you look. It is youthful and pure. The figure is as thin and as Amy. He is favored by the president of Universal. He does have strength. No wonder Fergie back then Be jealous of her resources to death.

The director's daughter Maggie Gyllenhaal looks worse than her, no wonder Yeremov and they rest assured that she will play Jennifer Love Hewitt's best friend.

"Ahem, boss?"

Linda noticed that his eyes began to follow Jennifer Love Hewitt, and quickly reminded, "Annie, hi."

Anne Fletcher has spotted them, put down work and walked over, "Long time no see, APLUS, Linda, come to visit the class?"

"I'm fine today, come and have a look." Song Ya smiled.

"Come here, everyone!" Anne Fletcher called to stop the rehearsal and called all the half-year-old children born in the 80s. "I will introduce you."

"Hello, hi, hello... Is the rehearsal going well?"

As a popular singer, Song Ya naturally enjoyed the treatment of being crowded and screaming. He put on the style of investors and greeted the actors one by one.

Jennifer Love Hewitt and Maggie Gyllenhaal performed the most decent. After all, they have many resources and good backgrounds, and they are no strangers to Hollywood.

Really, it's not good to decide the role too early, and no one actively scratched my palm or something.

Song Ya thought to himself.

"Uh……"

Everyone is not familiar with each other, and it is a little bit dumb to say hello, "You go on, I won't bother." Song Ya tilted his head toward Gosling, "You, come with me."
