Hollywood legendary director

In 2010, the usual year-end reception took a break for a while, and you still have to work.

In the Firefly Building, the huge conference room, everyone was here.

Among them, Lehman is in charge of the film business, Ryan is in charge of the TV drama department, Perlman is promoted to regional president, in charge of copyright development business such as audio and video peripherals, and the remaining administrative management Joseph, distribution president Liam, second shareholder and digital field Executive Officer Scott, Lighting Entertainment's second shareholder and executive officer Mai Lei Dan Derry, newly established Red Dragonfly President Virgenio, Marvel Pictures President Kevin Fitch and Marvel Entertainment General Manager Joe -Quaidar...

Of course, the backbone of various departments, including the directors who cooperate closely, are also there.

Zha Dao, Nolan, Wen Ziren, Top, Alfonso, Alessandro, Juan ("Lonely Cry"), if you count Cameron, Jason Reitman, Sofia who maintain the friendship Wait, Firefly's director lineup is quite luxurious.

At the beginning of the opening session, the manager of the TV department first made a report, “In 2009, we cooperated with many TV stations to broadcast a total of 7 dramas, with a total revenue of 643 million, of which advertising and payment accounted for 45%, and the cost of drama broadcasting. Accounted for 25%, copyright operations and home entertainment accounted for 30%, with a net profit of 450 million.

This year, due to the end of "Prison Break", the ratings of "The Walking Dead", and other dramas are also facing the problem of insufficient audience freshness, there are only 5 films that are about to be filmed or are already in preparation, including " The third season of "Stranger Things", the fourth season of Breaking Bad, the third season of "Break Man", the second season of Hell's Kitchen, the first season of "Agent Carter".

The number of episodes has decreased compared with last year, and revenue is expected to decline accordingly."

After the TV series, report the movie.

Perlman first stepped forward and said: "In 2009, we participated in the production, distribution and screening of 8 projects (Blue Butterfly took over the two distribution business), and the revenue was 2.13 billion, and the peripheral and home entertainment parts accounted for more than 70%. This proves that channel operation is still the main profit of the studio."

As soon as he sat down, Lehman said again: "In addition to the "Avatar" which is currently being screened, the projects we are going to develop this year are to put it simply-Nolan's "Inception" has been completed, and he is ready to cooperate with Colombia in the summer. File release. Director Wen Ziren’s "Chain Saw Fright" series has been filmed for the seventh part, as well as the second part of "Spartan 300 Warriors" directed by Zha. I am going to direct the "Tuner" myself. "The Lost Lover," which was co-produced with David Fincher, has already been set for the summer "Iron Man 2". However, the main preparatory work for this year is our collection of Marvel's first phase of "Reunion."

"The team will be established in June at the latest and will be screened along the road of "Avatar" at the end of the year. I also hope that this movie can have the momentum of "Avatar". If there is no accident, I will direct it myself."

Hiss!

Everyone took a deep breath, put them in the fantasy text, and shouted directly in response to the situation, my son, I have the talent of the emperor...Bah, bah, it should be this one, it should be horrible. , Even Nolan felt that there was a lot of pride spontaneously.

After all, before he filmed "The Dark Knight", he never thought that the audience would buy it like this, which made him very stressed now, but when he watched Lehman's establishment of the project, he dared to say the miracle of continuing the "Avatar" dominance. Confidence and inexplicably made him very excited.

In the end, Lyman, who consciously just announced the news simply, calmed down, and it was the animation's turn to report something.

First, the initial construction of the Marvel animation team has been completed; the second is that "Despicable Me" developed by Lighting Entertainment is nearing completion, and the schedule can be prepared.

However, Blue Butterfly Pictures has almost no experience in distributing animation. Naturally, this project has to take advantage of the energy of the five major studios. After a round of discussions, it is initially decided to cooperate with Universal to distribute. If it is really better than who has the promotion ability in this field The strongest, of course, is Disney, but the problem is that Disney is the number one enemy in Lehman's mind, and he has not considered this one.

Then there is the game. The US server of "League of Legends" has been released, and the number of online users is increasing. With sufficient funds to promote outreach, the fist can be more tossed than in the previous life, but in other regions, we have to wait for others. The agents are coordinated internally, but the competition system is generally being set up. The S competition proposed by Lehman will also be held in 2012-one more year of training preparation (11 years since the national service has been online).

After everything was sorted out, the meeting ended.

When a group of people were walking out, Lehman stopped and exchanged greetings for a while, and then chatted about the sequel to "300", "Someday, you go to Joseph and sign the contract. In terms of budget, yes. 110 million. In terms of interior scenes, I will let the production department start building in the new line studio later. You will focus on the costumes, props, and casting roles in this section, and strive to be transferred to the later stage at the end of August.

The director of the original film is much worse than Zhadao’s mirroring and color palette, and the taste is not right at all, which caused the box office to drop a bit compared with the first one. Although it is also because of the plot setting, it will definitely let Zhadao It would be better to take over.

"Uh, how about that copyright?"

"Relax, Frank Miller agreed. We gave him 10% of the project profit in exchange for the right to adapt the Marathon of Xerxes."

"That's good."

When he left, Mayes came in and reported: "Boss, Kevin has arrived at the office."

"Well, I'll go over immediately."

Lehman nodded, not surprised.

The "Reunion" project is the pivot point of Marvel's entire universe project. Success or failure basically represents the quality of the established shooting mode. This has already risen to a major issue in decision-making. Of course, Kevin attaches great importance to it.

However, there is still some time before the specific start-up date. He only needs to negotiate the salary of the actors and continue to refine on the basis of the interior of the new line studio, and prepare the props and costumes. There is no trouble.

But after seeing Kevin, Lyman realized that he was thinking about how to tell the news well.

Lehman thought for a while and suggested: "How about the Golden State Comic Show in July? The number of productions, one after another, is a concept that Hollywood has never had before, and let the audience know that it is more beneficial to us. Gather the hearts of the people, secondly, warm up in advance, and thirdly, we can take the momentum to win upstream and downstream channel resources, so what else can stop the film market at the end of the year that can stop "Reunion"?"

"Golden State Comic?" Kevin murmured and repeated, yes, such a suitable platform is not the best place to speak out.

Kevin said with excitement: "I will discuss with the organizer in advance to strive for the best display area to lay out our project elements."

"Don't worry, I have to go to China again. Come back and talk more."
