Chapter 221: Murdoch who grabbed food (Find a corner for the leader Yang 15/15)(1/4)

(Wow, finally a leader has been added!!)

Harvey secretly glanced sideways at Sean's face.

"It's about the release of "Basic Instinct"." Harvey whispered: "I have watched the finished film and shown it to major theaters. Everyone thought it was good. I have to praise Sharon Stone's acting skills. Then

She is really a stunner. After it is released, the whole world will be crazy about Miss Sharon Stone."

"I heard that you also wrote the script of this film, Mr. Sean, and you did the editing yourself, that's awesome!!" Harvey waved his big hands, "I admire you so much, Mr. Sean, you

What a genius!”

"This film can definitely win the Oscar!" Harvey's face trembled with excitement, "Oscar for Best Screenplay, Oscar for Best Editing."

Harvey may be a little fatter and a little uglier, but he is still a famous producer in Hollywood and a big figure in the film and television circles around the world.

After he praised him so much, Sean still felt a little bit in his heart.

comfortable.

Xiaobu looked at Sean in surprise, as if it was the first day he met him, "You can also write scripts? Can you also edit?"

"Yes, Mr. Bu Shi, and this is not the first time that Mr. Sean has written a script." Harvey was so colorful that he didn't even need Sean to answer, and he consciously did a good job of complimenting him.

"Mr. Sean's first movie was the previous "Bank Robbery", which had a box office of 130 million US dollars in North America and a global box office of 225 million."

"Both the scripts of "Bank Robbery" and "Basic Instinct" were written by Mr. Sean within a few days. Not only that, but the casting was also chosen by Mr. Sean."

"As far as I know, the other film "Die Hard" that is in post-production is also a script written by Mr. Sean." Harvey kept talking, foaming at the corners of his mouth.

"Oh my God!" Xiao Bu also looked very excited, "You still understand movies and art!?"

"Okay, okay, let's see how excited you are about this." Sean leaned on the sofa, put his hands on the back of the chair, crossed his legs, and raised the corners of his mouth slightly, "I think this is normal!"

There were words that were difficult to understand one after another, such as "Is there any problem if a genius knows more things?", "It's just a movie", etc., which caused Xiao Bu to grit his teeth, and Sean's face was filled with happiness.

"Okay, let's not continue talking about the fact that I am a genius." Sean raised his hand and pressed it, "What exactly are you going to say?"

"There may be some difficulties with the release of Basic Instinct," Harvey whispered.

"Huh?" Sean's face darkened and he stared at Harvey, "What do you mean, please tell me clearly!"

"The box office market of 'Bank Robbery' was unexpected, but with this dark horse, your film company has already entered the sights of the Eighth Congress." Harvey explained.

Sean understands this. If a foreign gang comes to New Jersey, he will notice it immediately.

After all, it is still their own territory, so it is impossible not to keep an eye on it. The Eighth National Congress also has the same principles for Hollywood.

"so what?"

"The quality of the film "Basic Instinct" is unquestionable. In fact, as long as it is not a drama, an insider will know it at a glance. Although the specific box office cannot be estimated, you can still tell whether the film is good or not," Harvey said, pausing here.

Looking at Sean's face, he said, "So, after the theaters watched the film, the Eighth National University of Political Science and Law knew about it."

Before it is released, the distributor will have to arrange for a major theater chain to come to watch the finished film. The theater chain will have to determine whether your film is worth the number of screenings it will give you and how many screenings it is worth.

Finally, you have to compare it with other movies released in the same period to see what time period and filming rate you are worth.

These can only be decided after watching the movie.

It also depends on the sharing model, whether it is suitable for the area where the theater chain is located, etc.

North America is a large country, and different regions have different cultures and religions. Many movies have no market in specific regions.

It doesn't just happen when the upper lip touches the lower lip.

"Did the Eighth Ambassador stumble?" Sean reacted immediately.

If "Basic Instinct" is good, it will crowd out the box office of other movies in the same period. It is reasonable for many small studios to avoid movies of the same category when blockbusters are released.

And "Basic Instinct" was not released by the Big Eight. It would be normal for the Big Eight to get no dividends and cause stumbling blocks.

There is nothing warm about business competition.

Harvey has always been engaged in the distribution of low-budget films, and most of these films go to the video tape market, with only a small part going to theaters.

The funny thing is, even so, he is the largest distributor in Hollywood after the Big Eight.

Well, slightly larger productions must be distributed by the Eight Major...

Yes must!

There are too many film sources from the top eight, and they can completely squeeze out the entire release market, or squeeze out good time slots.

The theater chain will not offend the Eighth National Congress for the sake of an unknown junior.

What's more, nearly half of the North American theater chains were forced to separate from the Eighth Congress because of the 'Paramount' bill. Although everyone's bones were broken, their muscles were still connected.

It's like Rockefeller being forced to break up.

"Yes." Harvey nodded.

Sean tilted his head and looked at Harvey, and suddenly said: "As long as we guarantee the screen for the movie, it's not impossible to distribute it to them."

When Harvey heard this, his heart seemed to stop. This was what he was afraid of, so he came to Sean in a hurry.

He completely forgot how much he resisted when Sean asked him to release "Basic Instinct".

"When the Big Eight get the distribution rights, they will definitely compress the schedule, the number of shows, and the time to make way for their own movies!" Harvey said with an extremely sure tone: "Moreover, they have always liked to delay the settlement cycle to let the money go.

They sit in their own accounts and often deliberately delay the settlement for one or two years."

"In addition, there are too many departments in the eight major departments, and internal struggles are very serious. Once the box office market explodes, they will definitely do things like false box office reports!"

"In the end, 'Basic Instinct' was given to them for distribution, but what about 'Die Hard' and other movies that will be shot in the future?"

"If this is the case, you will always be controlled by the Eighth Congress. They can plot against you however they want!"

Harvey didn't speak quickly, but he analyzed the disadvantages of cooperation with the Big Eight from all angles.

Do everything we can!

I have to say, this guy is really talkative.

To stand out in Hollywood, you do have a lot of skills.

Sean has also considered these things he said. If others don't know, how can he still know whether the movie he shoots will make money?

There is no way he would be willing to let Bada keep plucking wool from him.

Even David Rockefeller can't do it, Bada, Bada is a tyrant!

Moreover, Sean also knew that Harvey was not lying. If he didn't say anything else, he would say "Big Ship". The truck driver's 2000, 2000, and 2000 had completely wiped out 20th Century Fox. He had no choice but to look for it everywhere.

To ask grandpa and grandma for change, the truck driver's thigh must be connected.

Relying on the reputation of Truck Driver and the credibility of 20th Century Fox, many people invested money, the largest one being Paramount, one of the eight major companies.

The results of it……

The ship was a hit all over the world, but when it came time to settle profits, Twentieth Century Fox used all sorts of tricks to falsely report box office numbers, delay payments, and so on.

Paramount was still one of the eight major companies, and 20th Century Fox was not used to it. At that time, it was almost out of its mind.

The final external result is that Paramount takes the domestic box office and 20th Century Fox takes the foreign box office.

The copyright aspect is even worse.

Therefore, will any of the eight major companies indulge themselves and cooperate with them innocently?

Sean turned to look at Xiao Bu.

Xiaobu smiled and waved his hands.

The meaning is obvious. The Bushi family is a political family. They will only help solve problems or use their influence to bring the two parties to the negotiation table, but they will never take the initiative to offend anyone.

Well, anyone of influence.

Sean rubbed his chin and thought deeply, those guys would most likely bully an honest man like him.

It doesn’t matter what your reputation is or how popular you are, but before you actually meet someone, you say, ‘Is it true? I don’t believe it!’.

After all, they are all internationally famous large companies, so they can't be intimidated by them as soon as they meet, right?

That’s bullshit!

It is impossible for such a company to grow and develop!

Businessmen are all pursuers of profits and wealth. They rely on creating resources and obtaining the resources of others, and even forcing others to give up resources to make themselves rich - Rockefeller.

Therefore, there is no politeness or humility, and you have to really show off your arms when you meet.

The Eighth National Congress will definitely force itself to give more distribution shares. Sean believes that what Harvey said will definitely happen.

Leave yourself alone?

Unless the Eighth Congress wants to see the birth of the Ninth Congress.

so……

"Tell me about the current situation of the Eighth National University." Sean had no expression on his face.

It's useless to ask that guy Norris about this matter. Why do you think he's doing something crooked? Norris is an expert, so it's business?

Not doing business properly.
