Chapter 547 (1/2)
I had a chat with girl A. after a while, the president of new world pictures, Denny Morris, arrived.
The Easter schedule opened on Friday, and Denny Morris came to discuss the development progress of the Easter schedule's ”fight smart 2” and a series of projects being pushed forward by new world pictures, as well as another thing about the complete destruction of the already shaky new line of pictures.
Danilisi entertainment has successively taken away the blockbuster projects such as Ninja Turtles, and has also encountered strong competition from New World Entertainment in the field of horror films. In recent years, the new line film industry, which has grown up relying on the series of ghost street, has gone from bad to worse.
Not only that, at the beginning of the year, Simon also used some means to get rid of Time Warner's idea of acquiring new line pictures, and cut off the most important way to survive.
You know, it was after Time Warner acquired the new line in 1993 that it had a steady stream of capital and media resources to support it. Only then did it achieve a series of successes, such as ”rush hour”, ”trump spy” and ”the Lord of the rings” from the end of the 1990s to the beginning of the new century. Miramax also became the number one in the field of art films by being affiliated with Disney.
In contrast, those second - and third tier film companies that want to remain independent for a long time lack the support of the whole industry chain of large media groups, and their anti risk ability is very low, which is basically a flash in the pan.
The success of the ghost Street Series in the 1980s made the new line the envy of many other second - and third tier film companies. It has been a long time since I was a child. However, with the rapid economic downturn in recent years, the new line is blindly eager to expand under Simon's intentional or unintentional sniper, and there is no new box office series, so it is rapidly declining.
In 1984, the venture investment of 1.8 million U.S. dollars in the production of ”ghost Street” sold well, making the new line evolve from a small studio that can only issue low-cost B-class films to a second-line film company with independent production and distribution ability.
With the decline of the company, the head of the new line once again bet on ghost street.
This time, Xinxian asked Xinxian back. Originally, Xinxian hoped to win more than 2000 pieces of opening screen for ”new ghost Street”. Under the operation of danilisi entertainment, Xinxian finally won only more than 1300 pieces.
In terms of publicity and marketing, ”new ghost Street” can't be compared with ”fight smart star 2”, because the publicity effect of danilisi Entertainment's target and the $5 million release budget is even worse.
Now, the film has not been released, many people in Hollywood have smelled that ”new ghost Street” is about to encounter the breath of failure.
Unless the film can get more praise than expected in the media.
However, under the influence of the media network developed by Denise entertainment in recent years, this is obviously not very likely.
In the office, after listening to some of the arrangements made by Denny Morris, Simon thought about it and said, ”the traditional paper media can say hello a little. Don't deliberately publish negative articles at the igritte portal. In this way, just let the new ghost Street disappear at the igritte portal and try not to make any reports.”
Deliberately using their own media platform for a movie is too obvious.
Simon is more interested in the credibility of the igritte portal.
Denny Morris nodded, and then said, ”and Simon, the new line has accumulated some good film rights over the years. Do we need to move?”
Simon shook his head and said, ”let's wait for the release of new ghost street. Before a movie is released, no one can be sure what its box office will be. In addition, what we need to do is to avoid the new line finding another way out after the new ghost street. ”
As an independent second-line film company, new line used to rely mainly on loans. At present, the company's debt scale is large enough that it is impossible to obtain funds from banks. Therefore, there are not many ways out for new line. The best way out is to sell to other big Hollywood studios and become their subsidiaries.
Time Warner's channel has been snuffed out by Simon, but Hollywood is not without other studios to launch a purchase to the new line.
What Denise entertainment has to do is to stop this possibility and let the new line go bankrupt.
After a day's work, Simon returned to domay point manor at more than six o'clock.
Unconsciously, aliya, an Indian girl who has become a maid of the vestro family from Janet yoga instructor, greets her and says a few words. Simon comes to a living room near the sea of the villa.
In the living room, Janet is slouching on the sofa and making a video call with Melbourne. The projection screen on the wall shows the picture of the other side of the ocean.
Calculate the time, Australia should be at noon.
Veronica in the picture is also feeding food to Melbourne. The little guy is very dishonest and always wants to grab things with his hands. When Simon comes in, he just sees the little guy almost climbing to the table.
Seeing Simon coming, Janet immediately threatened, ”Moore, Dad's back. Eat well and don't let dad spank you.”
Simon sat down next to Janet with a smile, took a flick on the woman's hip and nodded to the big screen.The camera is on the projection screen. It is far away and has a wide viewing angle.
Veronica just saw Simon smack Janet's ass, nodded to Simon with an unnatural expression, wiped the corners of her mouth for the little guy who wanted to climb on the table, and asked softly, ”how's your day?”
Since she began to take care of Melbourne, Veronica has been relaxed and normal in front of Simon. Even the cool personality that Janet once called ”iceberg” has changed a lot.
Simon can understand why.
Holding Janet's little hand on her back, Simon said, ”good. How about you?”
