Chapter 1218 The Diligent King
"call……"
Awakened by Simmons, Mira opened her eyes and saw Harry condescending like a female beast, with both hands firmly pressing on her opponent's wrists, sweat dripping from her forehead, the two refused to accept each other, and stared at each other with gritted teeth with.
"Really, early in the morning..."
She glanced at the time and complained, turned over and continued to sleep, and heard in a daze that the winner seemed to be decided, Harry wailed, and another laughed and pressed up from behind.
"There are others who want to come today."
Hayden led the way and instructed Old Mike to park the car in the University of California Medical Center. "Catherine has been asking me to find a chance to help her meet you again." He said to the three people in the back seat.
"Us?" Song Ya asked.
"You and Harley, you two are the hero and heroine of Blade Warrior."
"OK, let her come."
Too busy, it is very important to save time as much as possible, Song Ya got off the car first, in order not to be photographed, Halle and Mira had to wait a while before showing up.
"Hey! Larry, don't get up, just lie down."
He walked into old Larry's ward with flowers. After the girl next door closed the mirror, the old man came to have this small operation. Naturally, he was a lot haggard, but he seemed to be in good spirits.
Old Larry has jumped many times in the past few years, but he has the qualifications to dance out my life and the football stunner, and he is a director. Smiling, he helped to put the pillow on, then took the flowers in Song Ya's hand and inserted them, and then went out to make a phone call.
"How do you feel?" Song Yala sat on the chair next to the hospital bed.
"It's not bad, I'll be discharged soon." Old Larry said with a smile, "Thank you for coming to see me."
"It should."
Song Ya didn't hide anything and asked directly, "I will stay in Los Angeles for a few days, can I spare some time, can the girl next door help with editing?" With the original film of Apocalypse in his mind, he was full of confidence Full.
"or……"
The old man was indeed unwilling to completely let go of editing. He knew that the other party was coming today, so he had already thought up the words: "After I leave the hospital, we will..."
"Then I don't have time, I'm going on a world tour in August."
If he doesn’t want to, that’s fine. Dance out of my life. I’ve intervened in my life. The football stunner didn’t take care of it. He was shot. Old Larry and the distributor, Columbia Pictures, finally made a good film, just a youth film. , "Come by yourself when you are better, I will come back and take a look when I can, but there is a high probability that I don't have time."
The old man laughed happily, "I'm afraid that the release date will be delayed."
"Small things."
Song Ya waved her hand indifferently, "Hayden? Hayden!" A series of voices called Hayden.
"Here we come!" Hayden entered the door in response.
"What about the girl next door's schedule?" Song Ya asked him.
"Anytime is fine. Anyway, this year's summer vacation can't catch up. The attitude of the distributor, Bowei Films, is that the sooner the better, try to start filming before Xiao Lizi's other movie Celebrities, so it's safer."
Hayden replied: "Then it will be before the end of November. Celebrities are scheduled for Thanksgiving at the end of November."
"I'll be discharged from the hospital in early September." Old Larry said hastily, knowing that time was tight.
"Little Lizi was just a cameo in that movie, right?" Song Ya knew about the Celebrity Project, many big and small stars and even directors had cameo appearances, including Charis, and Woody Allen had a very strong convening power, so he often played like this .
"But no one knows how Woody Allen will cut it before it's released," Hayden replied.
"October is absolutely fine. I will enter the editing room after I leave the hospital, and the editing can be finished in September." Old Larry said.
"Oprah's 80 million big production darling is scheduled for October." Hayden sighed, "and the girl next door is released by Bowei, and Touchstone Films, which cooperated with us to compete for the Cold Mountain project, invested a huge amount of money in it." , as a Disney company, schedule conflicts will greatly affect our film schedule.”
"Didn't Beloved start painting on Thanksgiving?"
Halle and Mira happened to walk in. Both women had played roles in old Larry movies, and they should come to visit. It was Halle who asked, and he was very concerned about the favorite project that Oprah had put together.
"The file has been raised, and the publicity campaign should be seen soon." Hayden replied.
"Upgrade? Interesting..."
It is not a good sign to withdraw from the Thanksgiving schedule to October. Song Ya smiled, "If you can't, let's go to October. Anyway, there is no conflict between white youth films and black classic adaptations."
While he was talking, he got up and gave way to the two girls. Old Larry held Mira's hand, looked at her face and thought of Xiao Lizi again, and smiled heartily.
"I calculated in private, Polygram Films, with a valuation of 1.2 to 1.4 billion yuan, can only get back more than 600 million yuan after the spin-off, and the remaining funds included in Universal Pictures will definitely not be worth 600 to 800 million yuan... ..."
Downstairs in the parking lot, Catherine said to her husband before getting out of the car.
"Why do you care so much? It's not our money." Her husband replied: "Universal will not release the Blade Warrior, and our KM Films has no big productions to rely on them in the near future. The first cooperation with Telescope Entertainment and Hollywood Pictures Six Senses is published by Bowei."
"This is a paradox. If we want to release the sequel of Blade Runner globally, we have to please Bronfman Jr., and the premise to please Bronfman Jr. is precisely not to cooperate with APLUS on the Blade Runner project." Catherine smiled wryly.
"Damn inexplicable Seagram King of the Universe!"
The money printing machine was forced to stop working, and Catherine's husband was also angry, "I miss that old man Simberg."
The couple rose up in the era of the former Universal President Sinberg, and Catherine also has sympathy, but she is more cautious, "Keep your voice down, and don't speak ill of him in front of others later."
"What is our narrow-minded emperor doing?" Her husband lowered his voice a little.
"He's a hard worker, and he's off to Asia and Oceania to tour Polygram's record empire in the former British colonies."
"At the critical moment when the Digital Millennium Act is about to go to both houses?"
"Hehe, it's going to be a big layoff. Has there been two distribution teams of Universal and Polygram all over the world?"
"That's right... By the way, you said that Delay, who took advantage of APLUS's shot and comatose to steal the American music website, would you..."
"It should be, APLUS has always been very decisive."
"Hmph! These hip-hop singers who rose from the slums are so ruthless..."
"Hush!"
While chatting, the two walked to the door of the ward and greeted Old Mike.
At the Disney headquarters at this time, Harvey Weinstein slammed the door of Eisner's office flushed with anger, "He will regret it! He will definitely regret it!" He yelled at Linton who happened to bump into him: "You guys They will all regret it!"
Not all the way, Linton smiled indifferently.
"What's wrong with Harvey?" He looked at the exasperated opponent, and then walked into Eisner's office.
"The Lord of the Rings project was taken away by Warner's New Line Films. That fat pig thought it was because I refused to grant him more funds. The chaotic ownership relationship, the unknown director who refused to let go, and the huge cost The distribution rights are still in the hands of MGM, which is suitable for him to make money from it."
Eisner sneered disdainfully as if he had seen through everything, "The guy who dares to flirt with Ovitz, obediently run his independent film kingdom, flatter politicians, win prizes, and blackmail some erratic politicians with promising careers, think Just go east to west.”
"Ermao politician haha!"
His Majesty the Emperor has always held grudges, Linton laughed and complimented: "You can't hide everything in Hollywood."
"Beverly Hills is not far away, and I'm not lazy."
Eisner felt at ease with him, pointed to his own eyes and smiled, and asked, "How was your chat with your black friend yesterday?"
"I've said everything I need to say, and he should send a message back."
"Do you think the Internet industry will agree?" Eisner asked.
"Should be, they don't have much choice." Linton replied, "Away from Mickey Mouse..."
"Huh?" Eisner looked over, he hated this common name very much.
"Well, there are not many days until the Sonny Bono Copyright Term Extension Act and the Digital Millennium Copyright Act are submitted to both houses. If the Internet industry is inclined to cooperate with us, online communities such as YAHOO, AOL, and American music sites should start soon Delete past infringing content, otherwise limited by technology and manpower, time is too late."
Linton replied seriously: "We will be able to see through their cards then."
"A group of upstarts in the stock market, they don't know how to obey the rules."
Asner nodded in satisfaction, "But let's maintain a tacit understanding for the time being. We will be free on the day the bubble bursts. Sooner or later, we will have to settle the debt with them and threaten me...hehe."
"Sooner or later, YAHOO, with a market value of tens of billions, only earned a pitiful million in advertising revenue last year... The world is really crazy!" Linton said along his lines.
"Hahahaha!" Eisner laughed heartily.
