Chapter 59 Little Spider Debuts

"Harry, first meeting, I didn't expect you to be interested in Batman movies."

Looking at the rich second generation in front of him, Anton never thought that this guy, who has nothing to do with the film industry, would take the initiative to come to the door after he got the news.

Harry Osborn.

The second generation of the Green Goblin, the son of Norman Osborn.

Of course, now Harry and Peter are the same age, both high school students, and the two are still young and best friends.

"I'm a fan of Batman, and when I heard that DC was preparing for the second Batman movie and lacked funds, I volunteered."

At this time, Harry looked a little green, and he smiled: "Anton, I have heard your request from Jim, and I am willing to pay 50 million for 25% of the dividend, which should be your current Among the investors you have contacted, is it the most generous one?"

The planned production cost of "The Dark Knight" is about 180 million yuan, and Harry's 50 million yuan only accounts for 25% of the dividend, which is a lot of profit.

"Yes, you are the most generous one."

Anton nodded without being long-winded, and reached out to him: "I accept your investment, happy cooperation!"

Harry said: "Wait, I have another condition, or a small request."

"what?"

Anton looked at him, frowning slightly.

"I want a Batman autograph." Harry showed a rare shyness, "I just said, I'm a fan of Batman."

"Ah this..." Anton was a little embarrassed.

"Don't refuse, Anton, I know that you can definitely contact Batman, this is a secret that everyone knows." Harry said, "If there is only one person in this world who knows Batman's true identity, then this person must be It's you."

"Okay, deal." Anton shrugged.

"Great."

Harry smiled. "Thank you, Anton."

Seeing Harry's youthful appearance, Anton moved in his heart, thinking that he might just catch a sheep and smash it, and he was too lazy to continue looking for investors.

Anyway, the two movies "Cyborg" and "Superman" probably won't treat Harry badly after they are made.

"For the sake of Batman's autograph, Harry, are you interested in our other two films?"

Anton smiled slightly, put his arms around Harry's shoulders, and began to introduce him to DC's ambitions.

A grand blueprint slowly unfolded before Harry's eyes.

two hours later.

Harry left in a daze from the DC company downstairs of the Daily Bugle, and inexplicably spent an extra 100 million yuan, and the total cost was 150 million yuan.

Anton smiled and sent him away, lamenting that the Osborn Company was rich.

Harry Osborn, a high school student, can spend 150 million on a casual investment without anyone's approval.

Shouldn't this be a compliment of inhumanity?

But Anton didn't fool anyone. He is indeed very optimistic about the rate of return of "Cyborg" and "Superman", just as he is optimistic that "Batman: Mystery of the Shadow" can make him a lot of money, the two are the same concept.

Harry is not an idiot. Although Anton's words are very deceptive, the former will take decisive action only when he sees an opportunity.

On top of that, Norman Osborn had complimented Anton in front of him.

Based on his trust in his father, Harry made the biggest investment in his life so far, an astonishing 150 million.

The three films received 50 million investment respectively.

With the initial budget of 500 million yuan for the three films, 30% of the budget has been settled with the funds introduced from the outside, and another 200 million yuan has been allocated by myself, and the remaining 150 million yuan has been introduced in additional funds. This kind of allocation seems quite good. Reasonable.

Anton still has some money left to promote the development of novels, comics, and even animation, and other entertainment industries, including the "Marvel Starting Point" plan that he has always wanted to complete.

Simply perfect.

After this talk, I have another conversation with Jim who is far away in Los Angeles.

Jim was very happy when he got the news.

After the establishment of DC Company, the first development plan that had just started was linked to Osborn Company, and Jim felt more and more that he had made the right decision.

A giant crocodile company like the Osborne Company can become an investor in a movie, and it can be said that it has benefited a lot.

New York.

Anton walked out of the DC company, went up a floor, and came to the Daily Bugle, which was only separated by the first floor.

After he established the DC company, he rented the downstairs floor of the Daily Clarion.

The company and the newspaper are put together to facilitate management.

"Anton, have you heard about a Spider-Man in Queens recently?"

Eddie looked at the manuscripts handed in by the reporters under his hands, with a strange look on his face, as if he had thought of something.

"Little spider, you shouldn't forget it, right?"

His tone was a little unnatural, and he said to An Dong: "That little spider who helped you the night of catching Jin Bing."

"Of course I remember, what, he debuted in Queens?"

Anton replied.

He said so, but his heart is like a mirror.

Queens, little spider, who else but Peter Parker?

Thinking of that night, the little spider said that he was a fan of Batman, and Anton felt a little proud in his heart.

"We just had a meeting to discuss that Spider-Man will be on the front page of the newspaper tomorrow."

Eddie added: "He has done some things recently, and he is called a good neighbor of New York citizens by our colleagues. It is very popular now, and many people like him."

After speaking for a while, he suddenly gloated: "However, he often robs the police to do work, and now the one who dislikes this illegal vigilante the most is probably not the thieves, but the police."

"Isn't it good? We have done big things, and small things have to be done for us. However, that kid looks too young and needs more exercise."

Anton thinks that the little spider has done a good job.

Of course, stealing work from the police will indeed attract a lot of dissatisfaction from the police.

Because if the police are doing nothing, people will never think that the city is crime-free, they will only think that the police department is incompetent.

And for the police alone, Spider-Man's actions can also make them feel humiliated.

They run around every day, maybe nine out of ten things are done, and the other thing is rushed to do it, and people come to criticize you for being incompetent, of course, this is frustrating.

"Wait, this is the picture we took of Spider-Man?"

Anton looked through the manuscript and the enclosed photos, and found that most of them were only taken from the side, and the angle was very ugly. Rarely, the front was also blurred, which could not be used as the front page of the newspaper.

"These are the screenshots we took from the surveillance cameras. You should know that the kid is swinging around in the tall buildings, like a real spider, we can't take good photos, we can only use it. ' Eddie shrugged.

"It's a little unprofessional to publish this kind of photo." Anton said with a headache.

"But if we don't publish photos, we will look even more unprofessional." Eddie said.

"Can't I use the photos of Jin Bing that night before?" Anton asked.

"Is that photo different from these? Besides, it's still used. It's like we can't get new photos, and we will be ridiculed by our peers, Anton." Eddie refused.

Hearing the words, An Dong was speechless when he thought of the sluggish appearance of the little spider that night.

dong dong dong!

There was a knock at the door, Phil Urick pushed the door open and walked in, followed by a young man with a tender face and a slightly thin body.

Phil said, "Editor-in-chief, boss, this kid said he had some exclusive pictures of Spider-Man and asked if we wanted it."

Anton and Eddie looked at each other, what they really wanted.
