King of Hollywood

Chapter 205 Strategic Objectives

Adrian didn't let go, even though the Hulk gave it to Fox, so he recommended Joss? Wadden was the writer and director of the film. Wadden is now seen as perhaps the only producer label for Buffy the Vampire Hunter, but Adrian is well aware of his future achievements.

News groups and ac media don't deal with each other very well, that's between the two media groups, and Universal and Fox didn't try to work together on the film, so even after Adrian first gave Fox the Hulk with a prank in mind, Joss? Wadden recommended it to them. And that's why Fox didn't hesitate to give his recommendation in its entirety, and the miracle director's eyes are now almost a gold sign.

As for the future Avengers Alliance, don't worry, Adrian has his back in all of this. Besides, even with Weiden's membership, the question arises as to whether the Hulk will be able to sell big, and now Weiden may not be the same as Weiden a few years later. This, of course, happens to allow Wadden to practise his hand and, if he fails, allow him to take it better.

Speaking of the idea of the Avengers' Union, it surprises me that up to now they have come up with a specific outline. I really don't know what they're thinking, but there's no copyright right now. But then again, it's understandable that they're so cautious. After all, all aspects of things to consider are not the superheroes that you can let come out if you want, and the copyrights of the various characters are somewhat obscure. Surprisingly, in the 1970s and 1980s, it was too messy to make money. So Fox's Green Giant is sure to end with no Iron Man or S.H.I.E.L.D. agents showing up with eggs like that.

Fortunately, however, "Captain America" was not given to Disney, and Adrian later learned that the entire Avengers Alliance mainline had flown from Captain America. He and Howard? It goes without saying that the super soldier program of the Hulk was also created because of the desire to redevelop the original serum, and that the realm was also drawn out by the cosmic demonic cube.

And the captain of the United States is also an important player in the entire Avengers Alliance. He may not be as capable as the others, but his leadership is excellent. In the comics, the Avengers Alliance is displayed by others. And it's very good at maintaining the morale of the team members, in short, roles like political commissioners. So if you want to make the movie version of Avengers, you can't give the role of Captain America to anyone else. And, of course, Iron Man.

Iron Man doesn't need to take it out yet. His cartoon image is set to be different from other superheroes, and he won't make much profit from taking it out prematurely. In a few years, when the audience is a little bit tired of the aesthetics of the superheroes they are now, then shining on the stage will inevitably have an odd effect. At present, the superheroes on the screen are either anonymous or passively known, like Tony? Stark was the first to announce who he was.

That's one of the important reasons why Iron Man gets so much credit when it comes out, you know, in amazing comics. Iron Man is much less popular than Spider-Man and X-Men.

Well, without that, Hulk is expected to be on next summer's vacation, and we'll know if Wadden can handle the character, so we talked to him a few more words, and Adrian turned around. Plus, there's a lot of big premiere characters, like Spielberg, who's making his own new movie, building a huge airport interior in the studio, but this time is still available. And Adrian will be there.

“I wanted to do a live photo shoot at Kennedy Airport, but, you know, after 9/11, the major airports were on high alert, so I had to choose to build an airport in the studio. Alex told me it would take at least 20 weeks.” Spielberg sighed a little helplessly, "Besides, I have to find a way to rent an airplane, preferably a Boeing 747… By the way, if your private plane is temporarily useless, could you lend me a shot for two days? It won't be too long. ”

“No problem, but you have to let me know in advance.” Adrian laughed, "Speaking of which, if you're going to build a real airport, what about the shops inside? ”

“Don't worry, I've already talked to them," Spielberg said in a relaxed tone, "they're all willing to come to the ‘airport’ to open a shop, some with regular staff, none with temporary actors for training, and I can save a lot of money. ”

Adrian was going to sell him a good one. I didn't think he'd noticed.

Spielberg's new film is naturally adapted from the Mayan who stayed at De Gaulle? Karimi? Mr. Nasser's personal experience of the Happy End, and the male and female protagonists are still Tom? Hanks and Catherine? Zeta Jones. And because of this, Adrian and Zeta Jones had to pause their man-made plans, and it took months for the airport in the studio to be built, and Zeta Jones couldn't be in front of the camera with a big stomach?

This is somewhat disturbing to Zeta Jones, whose personality determines the decision, without much interference, that should be achieved quickly so as not to have too many nightmares. But at the same time, she wanted to work with Spielberg, one of Hollywood's top two directors after all, and Adrian doesn't seem ready to direct a film for her personally at the moment.

So just now, after talking to the stars, Adrian pulled her aside to comfort her: "Don't worry, what I promised won't change, as long as you're always willing. And this movie takes a lot of time, but it's going to be quick, and I've seen the script, and it's basically indoors, so you don't have to. ”

This kind of commitment relaxed Zeta Jones somewhat, and she even asked half a joke, "It's not like I haven't worn a stewardess uniform for you. ”

“That's different.” Adrian blinked. And then, ignoring the eyes of the other person, she whispered in her ear, "When the movie comes out, maybe I can see the other side of that beautiful aerial lady, Amelia, which must be very exciting. ”

Zeta Jones' face turned red, and Adrian meant that she understood, although she hadn't seen Gwyneth and his adult version of The History of Shaun Love, she knew there was such a thing.

“Of course," Adrian laughed after teasing her. “Until then, I want the piano? Dr. Grey can undress his clothes in bed one step at a time. ”

Zeta Jones? Grey, or the Phoenix woman, though a little less skillful, a little more charming. But overall, it's good, and it's a good role play theme.

“Wait.” Though Zeta Jones' tone is irreplaceable, they both know the matter has been settled.

Well, let's get back to Adrian and Spielberg. He's not here to talk to him about his new movie.

“I've seen The Legend of Sinbad Seven Seas, which is great, and my daughters love it, but I have to say, Steven, 2D animation. The age of at least 2d animated movies is over.” After talking about the Happy End, Adrian quickly threw the topic out.

“I can see that too," Spielberg sighed, "but you know, Jeffrey always wanted to...”

He made a few gestures that didn't go on, but Adrian knew what he meant, Jeffrey? Carsenberg was promising in Disney. Frank? Wells took over as coo after the accident, but Michael? Eisenberg was very angry when Eisenberg was on the verge of raising another man. Feeling betrayed, he ran away and started a dream factory with Spielberg and others.

In this way, going beyond Disney becomes Carsenberg's greatest wish, and of course he knows it. As a new film company, DreamWorks is impossible to outnumber Disney in all directions. So he had a choice to do it where they were most proud, yes, it was animation.

Disney's initial rise, animation played a role and dominated most of North America's animation market for a long time and had a considerable impact on the animation industry. Several founders of Pix Studios had worked in Disney, and Carsenberg was responsible for animation. But as Ace became part of Disney and transformed it into a qualified media group, the animation industry began to go unnoticed. Forgive me, but the animation studio launched Lion King, the pinnacle of 2D animation in '94 - Carsenberg, of course, always thought he played an important role in it, so he couldn't stand the disregard that Einar gave him.

So he built the animation studio of the Dream Factory, and he launched 2D animations like Prince Egypt and 3D animations like Monster Shrek, all of which earned him lots of money and reputation. In previous lives, Disney worked with Pixar to keep one side of the dream factory on top of the 3D animation, but now that Adrian has acquired Pixar ahead of time, Disney is getting worse in terms of animation, and despite producing 2D animations such as Fa Mulan, it is unable to resist the erosion of the dream factory in this regard.

And this is exactly what Carsenberg wanted to see, so he increased his investment in the Dream Factory Animation Studio and put 3D animations like Monster Shrek over again, preferring 2D animation production. This is undoubtedly the inverse of the end of the book. After Pix's rise, everyone realized that animated movies had become a trend, but Carsenberg persisted in his practice, even though several 2D animations - such as "Breaking into the Golden City" or "The Little Horse King" - had a poor box office and reputation, and his complete defeat of Disney's traditional projects was undoubtedly a huge victory in his mind.

So, with the total and tragic defeat of Sinbad Seven Seas Legend this year, the tragic defeat of animated films is much worse than the tragic defeat of real people films, the production cycle of animated films is much longer, the investment is much higher, the bulk of the money depends on the periphery, if not popular, then the loss is no less than that of a commercial giant system, and the animation studio of the dream factory is in trouble.

But that's exactly what Adrian wanted to see.

“I have a proposition, Steven,” he said, "you see, the Dream Factory has failed in movies like Pearl Harbor. But overall, development is good. So in order to prevent the benefits of animated films from affecting the whole company, it is better to set up a company by taking out the studio * * to reduce the losses, and after further exploring the potential of the studio, it is definitely not difficult to reverse the loss to profit. After all, the dream factory still has a lot of accumulation in this regard, all it takes is time. ”

Yes, the dream factory, which was supposed to be in trouble on film matters, is now working well, despite the lack of a reputation like Beauty America, win-win works in the box office, and failures like Pearl Harbor. But with the Spielberg sign, and Adrian's AC media from time to time, the Dream Factory still reaps good results on medium invested films, and some failures don't hurt the bones.

The same goes for Disney. Without Pix, without ABC, and Disney, who chose to shrink his business, the blow was not huge, but rather more dynamic. Also, Disney's acquisition of ABC in a previous life was followed by a huge financial burden, and although ABC played a huge role in Disney's expansion, it was not until almost a decade later that Eisner came out of power to make a difference.

Without the abc baggage, Disney is relatively easy. Despite the fact that many traditional forces are frequently crowded by other media groups, such as AC Media, which chases young people on top of their idols, Disney is, after all, an old-fashioned company, and its advantage in this regard is not offset by one or two days.

But that doesn't mean that Eisner's position is stable, because he never sees animation, and Disney's animation studio currently has very little work to do, even though they're starting to 3d. That makes the Disney part of Walter? Disney's nephew, Roy? Disney-represented seniors were very dissatisfied, coupled with an accumulated series of contradictions, and Roy had threatened Eisner with resigning from the board of directors to change Disney's strategy to operate.

Basically, if Roy really resigns as a result. It would then be premature for Eisner, who no longer had members of the Disney family on the Disney Board, to step down and appear likely to be faster than in previous life.

Well, let's get back to the dream factory, because the movies are pretty good. Adrian seized the opportunity to make his own long-established recommendations, as the ill-effects of Sinbad's Seven Seas seemed so obvious. This is his best and only chance to complete his strategy.

“Sounds good, but you have to talk to Jeffrey.” Spielberg said that after a long time of reflection.

“I will.” Adrian smiled, and he knew Spielberg saw something, but so what? This is a manipulation of my own.

But before you meet Carsenberg, you have to prepare yourself. The guy is not an easy man to deal with, as you can see from his revenge against Disney. But if you convince him, it's basically a decision to make. Look at Spielberg's reaction. Obviously that's a little touchy. As for David? Griffin, he's only responsible for the record business, and he's never been comfortable with it.

"X-Men 2" showed well, not much change in the plot, other than adjusting the details like the first one to make the plot look more reasonable. A military chief tried to kill all the mutants in the world because of his son, so he plotted an attack on the president, attacked the school and captured most of the mutants, took control of Professor X, and then escaped the day Magneto and the rest of the X-Men to save him, and finally Jin? Grey used his abilities to ensure that the plane took off smoothly, but also lost sight of it in the flood, and after security, the X-Men retracted orders against the mutants.

As a commercial film, "x Warrior 2" is qualified, compact, individual abilities are demonstrated, and the fighting tastes good. Especially in the final battle with Wolverine, Lily, played by Ki Hui, whether the brutal force of Wolverine or the clever acceleration of Lily, was fully displayed in front of the camera, quite wonderful.

As a result, Ji Hui had to take the title of actress again, and did not know what the Japanese would brag about. Unfortunately, she had too few lines in the whole movie to show much acting. But Adrian doesn't care. If it really depends on Ji-hye acting, "Geisha Memoirs" will suffice. Yu-hye, who he brought to the United States a long time ago, has not been exuded by Japanese movies and theatrical performances, it will definitely be quite good.

In contrast, Scarlett played a much smaller part in the naughty scene, one of the first and most important major characters, completely and completely turned into a co-character in the second part, and according to the script outline of the last part of the trilogy, which was set at the beginning, she still had very little part in it, which undoubtedly made her a little dissatisfied.

“I hardly have the ability to do anything, which is disappointing and doesn't look like a superhero at all.” Scarlett said, looking sexy with red lips.

“Don't be greedy, darling, in the first place, you're a well-deserved protagonist.” Adrian smiled comfortingly.

“Speaking of which, I don't have a great part in the first part, I was fought for and saved from the beginning,” Scarlett sighed, “and I was awesome on the screen, like Hugh or Sir McLaren. ”
