Chapter 1258 Finalized (Part 1)

There are still a lot of cars that Guo Tailai wants to build, the model that Ferrari cooperates with, the motorcycle promised by Keanu, the Hummer NXT360 for the security guards, and if possible, make yourself a different style of armored bus, so you can still be very comfortable on the road office.

Doing these jobs is much more comfortable than thinking about buying this and thinking about that. well! Guo Tailai let out a long sigh, he is still a simple craftsman!

Annie came very quickly, and flew to the capital in the afternoon of the next day. Guo Tailai, as the host, warmly entertained Annie.

"G, I'm a producer, and it's my dream to be able to participate in this level of production." Faced with Guo Tailai's warm hospitality, Annie thanked Guo Tailai, and sincerely expressed her thoughts to Guo Tailai: "Trust me , Independent producers all over the world want to be able to participate in James' big production. Although the guy is an unreasonable jerk when he works, no one doubts his level."

"Of course." Guo Tailai said with a smile: "He is the most special director among the directors I know. Well, I only know two directors, and the other is Steven. Both of them have their own special features. However, I love diving with James."

"I didn't really participate in this project because I wanted to get revenge on him." Annie also has a good personality. A woman who can marry James, a woman who can still cooperate happily after divorce, has a unique personality: "I'm real Be optimistic about his level. As long as you provide enough funds for this guy to squander, he can return you an unimaginable surprise. But you have to give him enough authority and enough patience."

Guo Tailai has no doubt that Annie wants to be a producer in James' film, but he still needs a management candidate for the production company: "What do you think of Artisan Entertainment?"

"Artisan Entertainment is a very good company with complete production and distribution capabilities." Annie's answer at this moment has consciously changed from a friend of Guo Tailai and James to an applicant: "There is still a large enough film library. There are a group of excellent practitioners in the industry, but the high-level executives are not smart enough in some investments. For example, "The Blair Witch 2". Now their debts are as high as more than 50 million US dollars, close to 60 million, and they are struggling."

Guo Tailai knew the reputation of this bad movie. The first movie was attracted by all kinds of viral hype to attract the audience's attention and made a high box office. The second movie wanted to go the same way, but found that the road was blocked by the first movie. died. In this regard, they are not as smart as Lionsgate. They made a lot of money in the first film, and sold the copyright of the second film to artisans, earning another fortune. The artisan took over, and the loss was disastrous.

The other films are all small and medium-sized investments, joint investments, and some have a good reputation, but they really don't make much money. If Guo Tailai doesn't intervene at this time, I'm afraid Lionsgate will acquire Artisan next year.

"However, Artisan actually has some very good copyrights, but they haven't operated well." Annie obviously did her homework, and faced Guo Tailai's question, she appeared confident and professional.

"What copyrights?" Guo Tailai asked.

"Except for the few series that have sold well in history, there are a few more." Annie smiled and said, "I don't know if you noticed, but in 2000 Artisan and Marvel reached an agreement to transfer at least fifteen comic characters Made into movies or TV series. These include Captain America, Black Panther, Black Widow, Deadpool, Iron Fist, Ant-Man, Punisher, Humanoid, Morbius, Longshot, Power Pack, Mort the Dead Teenager, etc.”

"What?" Guo Tailai was shocked, the artisan actually holds so many copyrights? I actually missed it? Thinking back, it seems that Artisan plans to put the Punisher on the agenda in the near future, so I only noticed this, and didn't think much about the rest, what a failure!

"Do you think comic films have a future?" Although he was ecstatic, Guo Tailai still asked Annie.

"What this kind of film lacks is big investment and special effects." Annie said with a smile: "Before this, the development of special effects technology was not satisfactory, but, I think, it will not exceed three to five years at most. There’s going to be a leap, and that’s when these films shine.”

"Does the craftsman know this?" Guo Tailai asked with a smile.

"Who knows?" Annie shrugged. "However, judging from their plan to prepare "The Punisher", it seems that they just want to test it. But why should we remind them? Do we have this obligation?"

"Then, Annie, I have a very serious question." Guo Tailai asked Annie, "If you join our team, what will Westpac Productions do?"

"In fact, Westpac Productions has not produced a film and television work for more than two years." Annie replied: "Originally, I planned to start a project this year to see the effect, but since there is a better opportunity, I am of course willing. If possible If so, West Pacific Productions can be merged into Artisan together, and the price can be evaluated according to a professional company. However, I hope that it can be converted into shares of Artisan in the future."

"Welcome to join!" Guo Tailai had already made a decision when he heard this, and reached out his hand to Annie.

"It's a great honor!" Annie also reached out and held Guo Tailai together.

"Annie, you may be busy next time." Guo Tailai put down a big stone in his heart, and smiled at Annie: "You have to join the negotiation with the artisan, and you will be responsible for organizing the management team in the later stage. In addition, you must Joining James in writing the script and taking charge of the early planning of the project. I regret to inform you that you will be a very busy man."

"I will try to enjoy this kind of busyness." Annie smiled happily.

"In addition to the converted shares of Westpac Productions, as a manager, you and your management team will enjoy 2 to 4% share dividends in the early stage." Guo Tailai once again gave Annie an incentive: "Wait until the work is enough. The number of years, and after making achievements, these shares will be cashed out one after another, not just dividends.”

"Thank you boss!" Annie quickly entered the situation, and immediately changed her name with a smile.

"Keep an eye on James for me." Guo Tailai said with a smile, "His overspending has become a habit."

"Of course, I enjoy it." Annie agreed with a smile: "However, boss, I heard James talk about the general role configuration you discussed, and I think there is still one ethnicity missing in it."

"Which one?" Guo Tailai asked.

"Jews." Annie replied: "In North America, since you want to please several ethnic groups, you must add Jews. You understand the reason."

"You are an expert!" Guo Tailai responded without hesitation: "You and James discuss it."
