Chapter six hundred and eleventh give up
The great prospect of Prada is there, and a little obstacle is easily overcome.
In the chairman's office of the Firefly headquarters building, Joseph walked in happily and went all the way to sit down on the sofa opposite Lehman.
At this time, two people have come to the office, Ryan and Liam are both here.
And the group of them gathered together naturally to discuss the follow-up measures for this small disturbance.
You know, I still remember the things that were inexplicably smeared and the project profits were delinquent before.
Although because of the explosion of Prada, it is unwise to waste money to bring the rhythm, but the six major pressures are still there.
Ryan, can you talk about the recent situation first? Lyman asked.
Paramount and Warner Bros. have already stopped. As for the arrears of profits, it's a little trouble. It's a little interesting. Both HBO and WB want to promote continued cooperation.
Well, this is as it should be. The filth between the studios spread to the TV station, and they probably don't want to see it. Liam said amusedly.
Don't let go yet, let's take a look at the follow-up actions. This is just a battle of interests, and we didn't go too far. Laiman frowned and said, What happened to Lionsgate and Mubao?
Liam took out a document and said: According to the theater attendance rate and the box office trend in the past few days, in the remaining two weeks, Prada will be in a stable decline period. If the number is further reduced, there will be no need for joint announcement and distribution. At that time, the accounts will be clearly calculated. In terms of the film profits initially calculated by our entrusted financial personnel, the two of them will be able to take away 23 million North American box office in this cooperation. The revenue is more than 17 million offline.
It's not bad. Although they get a lot of profits, it's better than having a great dependence on the Big Six. In short, after the movie is down, the profits will be settled immediately. Then, let's leave the matter here. You guys, No Country for Old Men are still waiting for me in New Mexico.
......
The competition between the Big Six and Firefly has not risen to a serious level.
Paramount and Warner saw the excellent market performance of Prada after its release, and they did not waste their efforts.
You must know that their essence is to peaceful coexistence and win-win cooperation with Firefly. After all, there are so many studios, as long as they do not infringe on the core interests of the six majors, no one wants to kill chickens and get their eggs, and wantonly suppress them.
On the other hand, the six major factions do have too many internal factions, and there are no foreign enemies, so they will fight for themselves first, not to mention a media group, and it does not rely only on the business produced by the studio.
As a small counterattack, after Joseph slightly revealed that Prison Break and The Walking Dead may be delayed in filming, the two TV stations immediately couldn't sit still.
After all, if you don’t taste the benefits brought by these two projects, it’s fine. If you can’t get it anyway, it’s good to watch the excitement.
But the problem is that this kind of thing happened to me. Seeing that the mining of a gold mine is about to be delayed by an inexplicable struggle, the TV station has no affiliation with the studio, and of course I can't accept it.
After making several phone calls in a row, the helpless senior TV station executives directly put pressure on the board of directors on behalf of the shareholders' interests, and just asked not to mess around. Wouldn't it be good for everyone to make money together?
If it's not like that,
But that's what it means. Anyway, you have to guarantee the interests of the TV station, and let the above correct the cooperation relationship of Firefly. If you can't directly intervene in the operation, don't play any warning dramas and settle the arrears happily. Firefly's project arrears, release goodwill.
Anyway, at this level, Warner and Paramount did not really tear their faces with Firefly, nor did they admit to taking the initiative to participate in this turmoil.
——The current fireflies are no longer the fireflies of the past, their ability to resist risks has greatly increased, not to mention that the big net formed by the exchange of interests has reached the whole body. If you want to suppress it, you must first think about whether it is worth losing several times. A gold mine.
In fact, if Prada did not achieve such results, the alliance announced by the joint announcement failed, and the Sixth Congress would still have a chance to make Lehmann bow his head.
Unfortunately, no if.
Joseph is very adaptable to this kind of business style, and when Warner loosens up, he immediately says that he is happy to cooperate.
The whole thing, once it doesn't move forward according to the established goal, then giving up halfway is also a very rational choice.
Prison Break has finished its second season and is preparing to broadcast its third season. The Walking Dead has just finished its second season, and the third season has not yet been filmed. But for Warners as a whole, these two projects have become gold-standard projects. The production not only brings a steady stream of huge profits, but the value of its binding to paying users is what makes HBO the most fancy.
What a hit drama brings is far from being viewed with a little pure viewing profit, just like the huge blessing of Friends to NBC.
Therefore, it is completely foreseeable and unanimous interests that Lehman and HBO befriend each other, and Firefly also knows that Warner will not give up the TV series that are cultivated by 50 to 60 million every year or even the number of users for a little scheduling dispute.
The more people there are, the more voices you have, and the less courage you will naturally have.
Among the six majors, Warner and Firefly have the deepest entanglement of interests, so it is reasonable that the breakthrough point will be at Warner.
And once someone has the idea of compromising, in the same hatred, will this foundation still exist?
Warner compromised, and so did Paramount.
Coupled with the smooth release of Prada, even if they persist for a while, Firefly will not be suppressed to the point of exhaustion.
The situation is like this, and it is not a huge contradiction between life and death that cannot be reconciled.
Smart people, it is almost instinct to judge the situation.
In Paramount's chairman's office, Shirley Lansing was a little depressed to let her subordinates stop embarrassing Firefly, continue to maintain profit sharing, and don't delay payment.
- It's all over.
......
The screening of Prada has entered its third week, and the popularity of Valentine's Day has also dissipated unconsciously, and the North American film market has become even more deserted.
Except for Prada, there has never been a single North American film that exceeded 100 million yuan in the same period.
The momentum is slightly better. The comedy film Pink Panther starring Kevin Slein and Steve Martin has won 51.07 million box office in 20 days, and Death Come 3 has accumulated 35.27 million in North America. Move forward in accordance with the expected goals of the major film companies.
Of course, this expectation does not include North America breaking 100 million.
Compared with their cost, they are all profitable, and they are completely worthy of the publicity resources they have obtained - provided that they are not compared with Prada.
And when Lehmann broke through 100 million in Prada in North America and continued to struggle towards the 150 million box office, he did not continue to pay too much attention. Instead, he focused his attention on the filming of most of the scenes, and still needs to finish No Country for Old Men. crew.
The matter was settled smoothly, and the temptation of Warner and Paramount did not play a big role, and as long as they didn't make a move first, Lyman couldn't take the initiative to provoke them - after all, they couldn't fight, and it was okay to give in each other's meaning.
Meanwhile, on the last day of the shooting schedule, the crew of No Country for Old Men arrived in a small town in New Mexico.
After filming the chase scene in the previous few days, the progress of the progress is coming to an end.
At the intersection of the town.
Killer Anton drove the car with belongings on the co-pilot, waiting for the traffic light with great interest.
This was the first time he actively followed the secular rules, but he didn't get good results.
The design of this scene is quite ironic, and it is also a famous scene for the role of Anton.
In the past, he was lawless, and his actions went smoothly. Now, occasionally, he was waiting for the green light to pass the intersection, only to be hit by a car running from the side of the red light.
Anton was hit with a bloody head, and his eyes were full of daze.
He doesn't even know what just happened.
Fortunately, Javier Bardem is in good shape, and this scene with a reversal effect is over in one go.
After packing up the filming set and having a final dinner, Lehmann returned to Los Angeles with the crew.
At this moment, the selection of Oscars is the topic news that the media pays the most attention to.
All the people in the shortlist came out with various means of competition, which brought another farce to American fans.
