Hollywood legendary director

Film and television production is an industry that depends on creativity and experience.

For some things, you can do it, but if you don’t, you have to accumulate and learn.

Compared with Huayi’s early days in the advertising business, Wanying Media had a high starting point for filming and filming at the beginning of the establishment of WanD Group, but it failed to achieve Wang Jianlin’s ambitions of self-production and sales and efficient turnover. .

Regarding this point, Li Yaoguang, as a cadre entrusted with important tasks, of course also worked very hard and actively cultivated and attracted talents.

It’s a pity that the mainland film market does not have unlimited potential, but there is no blank market. Behind every excellent film is the result of market struggle and hard work. After the decline of Hong Kong film, a large number of Hong Kong and Hong Kong talents Going north, the competitiveness is not low.

And the emergence of a market explosion purpose, which only exists in paper analysis, is actually useless-"Harry Potter" is so popular, who has copied it?

So when Wang Jianlin knew that one of the key points of "Rim of the Pacific" was to take advantage of the special elements acceptable to mainland audiences, he immediately thought that he could go to Japan to buy the adaptation rights and also make a monster film, Li Yaoguang had to shake his head—he I don't think Wanying can execute similar projects well.

"We have no directors. I have been in contact with Zhang Guoshi for a few years and haven't talked about a project. These directors who are already well-known can not be moved by their budget alone."

"If I want to sign a long-term cooperation agreement with Firefly, what price do you think?"

Without a thought, Wang Jianlin knocked on the table and quickly changed his mind.

That's right, after thinking about the above, the reason why he recruited Wanying, who had been in business for less than two years, was naturally a very suitable plan that was more conducive to the promotion of his media sector.

Wang Jianlin thinks far, and his vision is not limited to one place, but he has targeted the international market early.

In his own words, after completing the small goal, he can naturally focus on the big goal policy. With his current control industry, he has indeed given him the confidence to do so.

From the strategic analysis given by the think tank, based on the WanD cinema circuit, it is simply a waste of not mastering certain international market operation capabilities.

But the problem is that he is a layman after all. Although it has long been clearly recognized that part of the role of the media sector is to serve his commercial real estate theory, after all, it needs influence and IP traffic support-Disney and Universal themes The park also does not need a good role financial supplement.

It's just, what do you use to impress others?

Li Yaoguang suddenly made trouble.

The theater resources, it seems that Wan D’s own loss of "Pacific Rim" is their own loss; to announce the resources?Can you compare with the tripartite forces of Huayi, Bona + China Film?

It is true that Hollywood’s mainstream production model prefers to use cooperation or assembling to diversify risks, but it never gives up the share of successful projects—what the picture is.

"I will try."

Difficulties and difficulties, the boss has spoken, still have to deal with.

"We must fight for the sequel of "Pacific Rim"." Wang Jianlin said without hesitation: "How likely do you think the sequel will fail?"

"Small."

The first part was successful, and the second part may be bad. Only the producer made a mistake, such as the budget was not well controlled, or the selling core changed.

Otherwise, according to the current situation, "Pacific Rim" is improving market credit, and the fundamentals are not bad.

After the matter was settled, as the next positive action of the media sector, when Li Yaoguang began to prepare to contact Lehman through China Film, Wang Jianlin still had a good bargaining chip, but for the time being, he couldn't make it clear, but he pointed it out. It is still possible.

He stroked his thoughts, dialed a call, "Go, call Hanzhong in."

After speaking, he closed his eyes and raised his mind.

After a while, a middle-aged man in his forties walked in.

"Hanzhong, you go to the AMC manager to help make an appointment with Joseph, the general manager of Mann Media." Wang Jianlin spoke slowly, but the meaning was clear, "Just communicate..."

"it is good."

...

The employees of Blue Butterfly Pictures Beijing site are all in a good mood at this time.

And because "Pacific Rim" is on a successful track, Andrew and Lehman are being wooed and contacted by various parties almost all the time.

When approaching 400 million, Lehman himself went to China Film again to chat about market feedback and follow-up promotion; Bona and Huayi also kept exploring the preparations for serialization, and proposed to continue to deepen the Chinese elements in the film. Positive performance.

In fact, these things do not need to be reminded by these people, Lehman himself can also know from the audience and box office what the selling point of "Pacific Rim" is-it will definitely boost the market in the region.

Lehman even discussed these points with Gyro, and the next one will increase the proportion of Japan based on catering to the Chinese market.

Godzilla is a classic monster image in Japan at any rate, and it would seem weird not to shoot it in Japan.

Of course, these things belong to the adjustment and processing of the production level. He is not so stupid to speak out now, so he only emphasizes that after the script is released, the senior officials of Bona, Huayi, and China Film will understand what kind of story it is. The final result depends on how to add new content based on the existing plot background.

In this way, after going to a few rounds in a row, Lehman gradually stopped appearing, and Andrew was mainly responsible for maintaining contacts, but just as he felt that his trip to China could come to an end, and when he was ready to go back, an unexpected invitation was still allowed. He stayed longer--

Joseph called from the other side, saying that people from the WanD Group had connected through AMC executives, hoping to meet him.

Hearing the news, Lyman raised his eyebrows.

In his previous life, some of Wan D’s actions were not a secret in the film and television circles. He knew very well that Wan D would definitely enter Hollywood, and several acquisitions caused a lot of panic in the media at one time-just like Sony’s takeover of Columbia The action is the same, how alarmist is coming.

Thinking of this, he suddenly understood why Wan D was looking for him.

As we all know, content is the most basic thing in the film industry. Without good content, no good value can be created-it is impossible to have channels without water.

However, Wan D's time to set foot in the production field is very short, and they treat unfamiliar areas like many capitals, either by accumulating deficiencies through acquisitions, or accumulating experience through complementary resources and cooperation.

Lehman definitely disagrees with the former. In the latter, platter investment in exchange for resource tilt is actually a wonderful model...

Afterwards, Lyman asked Andrew to find the information about the Wanying production project, flipped through it slightly, and then called Joseph back.

"Let caa help me investigate AMC's operating status. I need its recent financial report and internal personnel status. Send me email tonight..."
