Hollywood Hunter
Chapter 1092: Financial Report Conference
There are many filmmakers in Hollywood who insist on writing and directing and acting on their own with an excellent script and become famous. Stallone is one of the most legendary.Unfortunately, Peter Borg is not among them.
Not only that, this one is also a big hole in Hollywood.
In the past, Peter Borg’s self-written and directed debut bad stuff ended in failure, and it did not stop the rise of this naturally racially bonus filmmaker in Hollywood. In the following years, he directed more than a dozen films, many of them still They are all blockbusters of big investment and big production.
However, with the exception of Hancock, the National Superman starring Will Smith at his peak, others have basically failed, such as super battleships, such as the Deep Sea Catastrophe, and even some Jungle Warriors and Bloody Kingdoms that did not impress the audience at all. Wait for big budget movies.
However, Simon is very happy to see such filmmakers.
As long as you can't pit yourself.
At this moment, when he heard Peter Borg’s confidently making the offer, Simon’s expression was not at all displeased. On the contrary, Bole looked at Maxima’s expression of cherishing talents, and decisively agreed: "No problem, Peter, I have already I've seen the outline of the script of the bad stuff, a great story."
Peter Borg obviously didn't expect Simon to be so stubborn. After a little stunned, he subconsciously said: "But, Mr. Westeros, Mr. Morris talked to me once. He thought I was a novice..."
Simon waved his hand and interrupted: "Peter, I am the boss. In this way, I feel that if the bad things are done well, I hope to rush to Oscar, so I can put it under the banner of Gaomen Pictures and let Ella take charge."
Oscar?
Peter Berg was surprised again, and inevitably excited, if his project can impact the Oscar, even if it is just nominations, it will be enough for him to become famous in Hollywood.
It's just that this good thing seems to come too easy?
Seeing that Peter Berger didn’t know how to react, he turned his head skilfully: “But Peter, if you want to direct yourself, out of risk, the budget must be controlled within 10 million U.S. dollars. It must be decided by us."
This is normal.
Simon's voice fell, even Robert Redford, who was in the audience, thought so.
Peter Borg felt that things were back to normal, but he immediately said: "Mr. Westeros, 10 million dollars is too little. Frankly speaking, several other studios interested in bad things have made more than one budget. 10 million."
"Funding may be important for a movie, but it has never been a decisive factor. Peter and the soul catcher only have a budget of 10 million dollars. See how much audiences like this movie now? So the collaborators are the key. Daenerys can help you make a great movie and at the same time bring it to the market successfully. This is the most important thing."
With that said, Simon was really worried that Peter Borg would agree on the spot, so it was enough to stop: "So, think about it, Peter, I look forward to your good news."
Simon finished speaking, deliberately ignored Peter Borg, and turned his attention to Robert Redford next to him.The fastest updated novels https://
The goal must have been achieved.
Surrounded by guests, Simon didn't lower his voice very much just now, and compared the bad stuff with the soul catcher who has been selling well recently. The news spread, and he did not believe that other Hollywood studios would not grab the head.
The noon reception lasts until two o'clock in the afternoon.
Simon stayed until the end, patiently communicating with all the filmmakers on the scene. When the party was over, he was about to leave, and was called again by Natasha Richardson who had chatted at the beginning of the party.
"Simon, I think you should apologize to me."
Just now in a low voice, girl A greeted Elado Ichman about bad things. Simon heard Natasha Richardson's sudden words and asked with a smile: "Why?"
Natasha Richardson stared at Simon: "You said,
Simon changed it when he knew it was wrong: "Okay, I'm sorry, Nata."
The melancholy in Natasha Richardson's expression remained undiminished: "But, Simon, you have ruined my hobby. Even if you take it back now, I still dare not ski anymore."
"It sounds serious," Simon curled his mouth slightly: "So, don't you work on Broadway, next time I go to New York to invite you to dinner, it is compensation, how about it?"
Natasha Richardson stunned. Is this straightforward or perfunctory?Even though she thought so, her tone was a little softer unconsciously: "Simon, this is too insincere."
Simon raised his arm and put on the windbreaker handed over by Girl A, and said with a smile: "Dinner is just the beginning, we can seriously discuss more compensation at that time."
Feeling some nasty elements in the man’s smile, Natasha Richardson shook her head subconsciously: “I didn’t mean that, I mean, who knows if you will remember this next time you go to New York? Could it be, um, Can't it tonight?"
"Unfortunately, tonight is really bad, but I have a lot to do."
Natasha Richardson saw that Simon was serious, and the man did not pursue some of the ambiguities in her words, so she had to agree.
Simon is really busy.
After the noon reception, there is another film forum in Park City. This time it has nothing to do with Sundance. It is an exchange project jointly initiated by several major studios in Hollywood. Many filmmakers will participate, and Simon also chooses attend.In the evening, it was another fashion party held by the ck brand under Mei Li Shanzhu.
Even if there is some free time, Simon's eyes are on the film festival.
People were asked to collect a bunch of film materials planned to be shown at the film festival, most of which were just simple one-page posters. Simon would look through it for a while during the ride or wait, in order to pick up the leaks and discover newcomers.
Because the information in my mind is too rich, it is easy to find many familiar names, but unfortunately they are all small characters.However, a trend has been discovered. This year, many more films were shot with digital cameras.
That being the case, you can try to copy some of the previous projects, such as Blair the Witch, and Ghost Records, such as pseudo-documentary horror films that create miracles with small blogs.
At the same time, on the evening of January 19, the 54th Golden Globe Awards was officially held at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Los Angeles.
The results were basically within Simon's expectations.The fastest updated novels https://
Recently, the hot nominated film Soul Catcher got nothing. The best film in the drama category was taken away by the British patient. The winner of the best film in the musical comedy category was Mrs. Veron. Madonna also got a best actress in the musical comedy category as she wished.
The results of the awards were announced, and the media continued to have doubts, mainly for Daenerys Entertainment's two films Soul Catcher and Ice Blood.
The Hollywood Foreign Press Association was also helpless.
Daenerys Entertainment's PR project this time is for British patients, what else can they do?
As a result, although the soul catcher got nothing, because of the media attention, the popularity increased, which once again stimulated the increase in the box office, and the ice and blood storm that has already released video tapes also ushered in a sales increase.
Everyone is happy.
Moreover, Daenerys Entertainment also quietly won the overseas distribution rights of British patients, which is regarded as a kind of exchange and compensation.You know, in the past, the domestic box office of British patients was only 78 million, but overseas was 150 million.
Although not involved in the production, Daenerys Entertainment can also make a fortune just by publishing.
In fact, Daenerys Entertainment is responsible for the overseas distribution of many MGM projects in recent years.On the one hand, MGM’s overseas distribution capabilities are limited, on the other hand, after all, the owner of Daenerys Entertainment, Simon has to consider the interests of his own company.On a deeper level, doing so can also firmly trap MGM in the Daenerys Entertainment tank.
The new week is coming, Simon returns to Los Angeles on Monday, and the most concerned thing this week is undoubtedly the earnings conference of Eaglet.
It will be at two o'clock in the afternoon on Wednesday, January 22.
A grand press conference dedicated to the release of financial reports, although not a pioneering one, is also rare.
However, whether it is the market value of Eaglet, the public attention received by this company, and even the most direct financial report data, it is worthy of such a big plan.
In the 1996 fiscal year, Eaglet’s annual revenue was 33.6 billion U.S. dollars. Compared with 1995’s 20.8 billion U.S. dollars, it was a 63% year-on-year increase again. It did not fall back to the industry’s previously generally expected annual growth of less than 50%.
Not only that, the net profit of Eaglet for the whole year of 1996 also reached a staggering 3.5 billion US dollars.
What are the concepts of $33.6 billion in revenue and $3.5 billion in net profit?
According to the revenue ranking, 33.6 billion U.S. dollars has squeezed into the top 20 of the top 500 domestic companies in the United States.The calculation of profit directly breaks into the top 10 range.
In fact, this is not the key.
The most important point is that with a group of hundred-year-old corporate giants already tied, Yigrete’s revenue growth still shows no signs of slowing down. If this continues, the industry can’t even imagine the future of Yigrete. What a monster.
When Jeff Bezos presented the company’s 1996 overall revenue data to hundreds of reporters in the Eagles Convention Center, many people couldn’t help but think of some of the new technology giant’s The corporate motto in the fog.
