Hollywood Hunter

Chapter 372 Take advantage of age

Entering the last week of September, mca and Panasonic had another meeting on Tuesday, September 25. The result was still unhappy, and the Daenerys Entertainment, which was closely watched by the media, still did not have any movement, and the original buzzing acquisition The case seemed to be deadlocked.

At the beginning of the month, the "Forbes" American 4oo rich list passed, this week, the Westeros team reopened the preliminary preparations for the acquisition of Bell Atlantic, and James Rebold also began to quietly absorb Bell Atlantic’s stock, intending to acquire Prior to the exposure, it won a 4.9% stake in Bell Atlantic.

Although "Forbes" magazine will publish the global rich list next month, Simon's ranking on this list has no suspense, so it will not cause too much turmoil.

On Daenerys’ TV, Simon’s personally selected sitcom “Song Fei Zheng Zhuan” was officially launched on this Tuesday with abc TV network. ABC gave a 9 o’clock broadcast period, and wrote “Who will become a hundred "Millionaire" as a guide.

After the official launch, "Song Fei Zheng Zhuan" broadcast 1.56 million viewership data, directly let ABC announce that it will renew the subscription for the next two seasons at once.

In terms of film, David Lynch previously won Cannes Golden Palm's "My Heart Wild" opened on Friday with a scale of 532 screens. This film has been controversially polarized from Cannes to North America, 9 From the 21st to the 27th of September, the box office reached US$5.73 million on the seven days, and the museum had exceeded the US$10,000 sales standard, which was unexpected by many people.

After seeing the box office data of "My Heart Wild" for three days at the weekend, Gaomen Pictures began to urgently deploy screens. It is expected that the number of screens in the second week of the painting will reach about 8oo blocks, and the film is also expected to hit the North American box office of 20 million dollars. Mark.Although the signing of the share-sharing contract, the North American box office has passed 2ooo million dollars, and after counting the subsequent video tapes and TV broadcasting rights, Daenerys Entertainment can still make a good deal.

Compared with "My Heart Is Wild", the Italian director Giuseppe Tonadoret's new film "Journey of Heaven", which was released on September 7th, failed to arouse any audience after a few screenings. The direction, in the end, was only hastily withdrawn 170,000 US dollars at the North American market.

At the beginning, Gaomen Pictures invested US$10 million to obtain the North American omnichannel copyright of "Tianlun Journey". Judging from the theater box office results, the loss is inevitable.

Counting the "Paradise Cinema" that was bought by Universal Pictures and was ruined by strategic mistakes, Tonadore's two feature films have not splashed any waves in the North American market. The Italian director is destined to be very good in the future It's hard to get Hollywood's favor again.

Of course, except Simon.

If Giuseppe Tonadore’s future "Sea Pianist" and "Sicily's Beautiful Legend" two outstanding films will appear, Simon will definitely shoot.

Los Angeles.

After a short day of rest in Seattle with a female assistant, Simon returned to Hollywood again to start a week of work.

Knowing that Simon was planning to readjust the advancement of the dc film universe, ceo Terry Semel of Warner Bros. Movies expressed his objection for the first time, and then Steve Rose also called the Simon's office.

The follow-up movie plan of the first phase of the planned dc movie universe has been a highlight of the continuous promotion of Time Warner after the merger.

Moreover, although most investors recognize the win-win status of Daenerys Entertainment and Time Warner Group in the dc movie universe plan, there are also many shareholders who criticize Time Warner management for giving too much interest and initiative to Daenery Silk Entertainment.

It is conceivable that once the opening period of the first phase of the ten-phase dc film universe plan in the five-year plan is suddenly stretched to 7 to 1o years, those shareholders who have been accusing the Time Warner management of making excessive profits will definitely be more dissatisfied. Some original Investors on the management side may also change their attitudes.

Even more serious is that this incident will certainly affect the stock price of Time Warner Group.

Now that he has made up his mind, Simon will not easily adapt his ideas.

After several disputes, Time Warner still had to compromise, because the control of the entire DC movie universe is actually completely in the hands of Simon.If you really get into trouble, Daenerys Entertainment is certainly not afraid of shelving the plan completely, but Time Warner cannot bear the consequences.

However, Simon also made appropriate compensation.

Daenerys Entertainment’s last two places in the 1o movie plan were all handed over to Warner Bros. Pictures, further binding the interests of both parties.Moreover, Simon also agreed that he would not officially disclose such adjustments to the outside world, and would only unwittingly delay the plan during the implementation process through some excuses such as unsuccessful project preparation.

Reluctantly reaching agreement on this matter, Simon understood that there was still a crack in the cooperation between Daenerys Entertainment and Time Warner Group.

However, such things are inevitable.

The continued expansion of Daenerys Entertainment and the entire Westeros system is destined to damage the interests of more and more people.

Friday, September 28.

In the office 1oft on the second floor of Daenerys Studios, the team dedicated to the dc movie universe project occupies a dedicated office area next to the daenerys special effects company on the 2nd 1oft. All aspects of the dc movie universe planning will be here produce.

Moreover, the team is stationed here, which is also convenient for discussing the feasibility of various special effect scenarios with Daenerys Special Effects Company at any time.

A 7o-square-meter event room in the DC movie universe office area. Simon, Amy and Semel all appeared here today. The event room was also used as an audition a few days ago. At this time, the walls are densely packed with various actors. Photos, mainly related to the three major series of "Batman", "Wonder Woman" and "The Flash".

The core role of "Batman" has already been decided and needs no discussion.

A series of "Wonder Woman" main creators have also been finalized during this period, including Diana Prince's player Famick Jensen, Queen Hippolyte's player Joanna Cassidy, Greek Linda Hamilton, played by Queen Polute's sister Antiop, etc.This week, a supporting role in the series, Steve Trevor, Ares and other roles have also been decided.

Everyone's discussion today is the final selection of the characters in "The Flash".

Of course, if it is discussion, the final decision is still in the hands of Simon.

"Since everyone has no opinion, the role of Barry Allen is given to Jason Jedrick."

After carefully reading a few samples and background information about the actor, and discussing it, Simon said so.

Jason Cedric, 25 years old, debuted in 1983, has previously participated in "Guide to School" starring Tom Cruise, "Born on July 4th" directed by Oliver Stone, Michael Hoffman His "State of Dreams" and other films have sufficient acting skills and qualifications, and Simon also appreciates the other party's performance in "State of Dreams".

Moreover, when Simon was invited by Robert Redford to watch his new film "Havana" on Wednesday night, Redford also specifically recommended Simon to the final list of Jason Jedrick.The difference between the last few candidates was not big. Jason Jedrick had sufficient conditions in all aspects, and Simon just sold a favor to Redford.

After everyone nodded, a staff member in the activity room nailed the photo of Jason Jedrick to the blank space of the actor of "Flash" on the wall.

Finalizing this, Simon let go of another document in front of him and said: "Next, the heroines, Tracy Paulan, Robin White, Amanda Wise, let's revisit a few paragraphs of the three Video of the audition."

After Simon finished speaking, the staff in the activity room closed the curtain and turned on the projector without asking.

After a moment, there was a video of audition for Tracy Paulan on the screen on the side of the activity room.

Tracy Polan is 3 years old this year, and her debut was earlier than Jason Jedrick. She also has rich acting experience. In addition, this actress is the wife of Hollywood popular Michael Michael Fox, which is her ability to enter the last one. The most important conditions for polling.

Robin White, 24 years old.Not only the "Jenny" in "Forrest Gump" in Simon's memory and the "Mrs. Xiamu" in "House of Cards", but Rob White also happened to be produced by New World Pictures and later by Daenerys. The heroine of the hot show "Santa Barbara" that entertainment took over.

"Santa Barbara" began broadcasting in 1984, and was officially discontinued last year.During the period, Robin White also participated in films such as Rob Rainer's "Princess Bride".

Amanda Pace, 31 years old, the same TV actress, because of the oldest age, the acting experience is more abundant than the first two.Moreover, Amanda Pace should be considered the most beautiful of the three candidate actresses.

After the audition video was played in sequence, Simon looked at a few people around him.

Terry Semel first said: "I think Teresa Paulan is good. As the wife of Michael Fox, this can also be used as a very good promotional point."

Although the "Return to the Future" series starring Michael Fox is over, it is not a problem for this Hollywood star to continue to maintain his popularity for several years.As Fox's wife, just like Demi Moore, Teresa Paulan does have an inherent advantage.

However, as soon as Semel's words fell, Amy said: "I think the advantage of Michael Fox's wife is not obvious. Amanda Pace should be better. Her performance experience is more commanded than the other two. Moreover, her image quality is also more in line with the settings of Ayers West News reporter."

George Cosmatus, director of The Flash, recommended by Warner, said: "But, Amy, Amanda Pace is 31 years old."

George Cos Matus once served as the director of major production films such as "The First Blood 2" and "Blood Demon", although he did not meet Simon’s criteria for selecting the director of the dc film universe series, Warner did not have such a heart after all. Big, so I hope to have a more experienced director horizontal bar "Flash" series.

The budget of "The Flash" was borne by Warner, and Cos Matus could not intervene in the cross series such as "Justice League". After several communications, confirming that the other party's production ideas did not contradict themselves, Simon agreed.

Amy listened to Cos Matus saying this and picked up a picture to show him, saying: "George, if I say Amanda is 2 years old this year, maybe someone believes it?"

Amanda Pace has a soft Asian face. Although she is 31 years old, she is very well maintained. Some say that she is 2 years old.

Since the selection of the last three, Simon is actually satisfied with every actor, and any one will eventually be the heroine of "The Flash".A few others knew Simon's attitude and discussed seriously.Otherwise, everyone can simply wait for Simon to make his own decision, and there is no need to waste his tongue.

"But, Amy," Cosmatus said again: "Amanda Pace is really beautiful now, but if the "Flash" series lasts ten years, you can imagine that she will still be 41 years old ten years later. Your appearance?"

Simon didn't notice the problem, and Cosmatus suddenly woke him up.

Imagine the "Friends" series that has lasted for ten years in memory. The heroines of the series are very good, but at the end, even the highest-valued Jennifer Aniston and Courtney Cox gave A strong time is the feeling of a pig-killing knife.

Moreover, even if the "Friends" analogy is not available, the "Iron Man" series, which was originally considered to be a good-looking "little pepper" Gwyneth Paltrow, appeared in the series after ten years, and it is already unbearable.

Amy said again at this time: "According to your statement, George, Amanda Wise and Tracy Paulan can be directly out of the game."

Simon ignored the dispute between the two and looked back at the information in front of him.

Although any of the three candidates appeared in Ayers West, it’s no problem, but Simon also has some tendencies, and he originally preferred Amanda Pace.This actress does not lack the intellectuality of a female reporter, she also has another capable temperament.

Moreover, in the plot of "The Flash", Ayers West is definitely not a vase. Because of the profession of reporter, she will also quote a lot of plots, including the plot of the dc movie universe.

Amanda Pace was not well-known in the space and time. Simon couldn’t remember what the other party would look like in ten years. Moreover, Simon could see that this woman should have had a facelift. He didn’t care too much about it. One thing, but it is obvious that women who have undergone cosmetic surgery are actually more vulnerable to years.

After considering this, Simon drew a fork directly on Amanda Pace’s profile page, and then looked up to interrupt the dispute between Amy and George, saying: "Amy, George just reminded me that the age is indeed a very The important question, I remember thinking about it before. If it wasn’t for George’s reminder, I would almost forget it. Amanda Pace is really inappropriate, pass.”

Emmet paused and nodded. "So, what about Tracey Paulan?"

Simon did not hesitate too much and said: "Also brush off."

The third is the second, the heroine of "The Flash" is almost ready.

Everyone in the office also realized that a girl who was only 24 years old this year unconsciously took advantage of her age.
