One Thousand Six Hundred Seventy

Andre Hamilton is different from Renly Hall and other friends. From childhood to adulthood, he was accustomed to being spoiled and raised. The standard definition of "playboy" is used to describe him. There is no problem even describing it as overbearing, as long as his desires never fail, even Arthur Hall is far from comparable. After all, Hamilton is a hereditary duke, and Andre inherited it early Dalmore Winery.

Andre is the real noble boy.

In Andre's life, the people who really admire can be counted on one hand. Alexander Hamilton, who is about to inherit the 16th Duke of Hamilton, is his eldest brother and can be counted as one; and Renly can be counted as one. count another

It's not just the pranks during Eton College, it's not just Renly's obsession with dreams and beliefs, it's more of Renly's vision and insight, as if he's gone through the vicissitudes of life, that's him. The pinnacle that can never be caught up. Even Alexander was hard to match in front of Renly.

So far, what Renly hopes to accomplish has never failed. there has never been.

When Renly finally decided to make a big splash in Hollywood, Andre couldn't help but start gearing up, and Sisyphus Pictures was finally about to set sail.

Andre raised the whisky in his hand, and there was a faint gleam in those long and narrow eyes, and a sassy and sharp sternness slipped between his eyebrows. Revealing the pride of being loved by thousands of people. The youngest son of the Hamilton family has never bowed his head to anyone in the British Isles; now, the Duke's beloved son is about to make his way to Hollywood.

"I kept my promise, so what about you?"

Andre raised his eyebrows, his high-spirited and wanton appearance, unconsciously showed a condescending attitude, no matter who was standing in front of him, even if it was a level higher than Tom Bernard. The top figures in the pyramid can still feel that powerful momentum.

Like when Chris Evans appeared in front of Renly Hall and Matthew Dunlop, it was a look down from the class gap. Gap deep into the bone marrow.

The ancients often said that the right door is right. Although in modern society, classes are being broken down, and "matching a family" is considered a decadent and backward old concept; but for real scholarly families and hereditary aristocrats, the so-called "matching a family" still has universal significance, not a special one. It refers to money or property, but refers to the background of culture, upbringing, etiquette, three views, etc. The essential difference that radiates from the inside out is always lingering.

Now Tom Bernard clearly felt this gap. He felt offended, but he couldn't resist or was unwilling to resist, because Andre's level was exactly the height he hoped to reach, and it was exactly the level he usually had. As a manifestation of the power status of the superior man. He understood what Andre meant. Sisyphus' private equity fund was ready and ready to go. Now it's up to Sony's classic attitude.

"What was the first number?" Tom regretted just as he blurted out, because the question was too straightforward and too obvious, and it was just showing his timidity.

Andre raised his eyebrows slightly, and there was a hint of playfulness in his eyes. Just one look made Tom embarrassed, but fortunately, Andre didn't continue to make things difficult for Tom, but gave the answer neatly, "Nine Digits. About three 'Gravity'."

That's... three hundred million dollars.

Thomas Tour started with 50 million,

And now Andre started with 300 million.

The further difference is that Tour did everything he could to win a start; Andre just used his name to easily complete the goal, and the gap between the starting lines was too great; in addition, Tour spent before and after. It took two years to prepare, and Andre only took two weeks.

Tom's temples throbbed faintly. For film production companies such as Legendary Pictures or Sisyphus Pictures, which are based on private equity funds, they must not only look at the first funding, but should use this funding to spy on the creator's credibility and appeal.

What's more, the investment for each work is not paid in full by Sisyphus Films, and the cooperative company also needs to bear 30% to 60% of the cost. The same is true of Legendary's successive cooperation with Warner Bros. and Universal Pictures, and the same is true of the partners that Sisyphus Pictures is now seeking.

This also means that the $300 million raised by Andre can exert at least $400 million to $600 million in energy.

Even a bigwig of Tom's level has a dry mouth: If this news gets out, how much uproar will Hollywood set off?

Just look at Legendary Pictures to know that Thomas Tull left Warner Bros. on the front foot, and received olive branches from at least three top film studios on the back foot. The more top-tier movie studios are, the greater the liquidity figures on the books, and even a crocodile with deep pockets like Warner Bros. would never dislike having more flexible funds.

To put it another way, why does Thomas Tour have such a powerful voice to challenge Kevin Yuan head-on and compete with Lang Mayer?

Tom can be sure that once Andre releases wind, the entire Hollywood will be reshuffled, Universal Pictures may change its position immediately, and Disney and Warner Bros. will never let go easily; and now...

"I kept my promise, so what about you?"

Andre's meaningful words just echoed in Tom's ears again. The subtext was that it was Sony Classic Pictures' turn to show its sincerity; the problem was that Tom could decide on the spot for such a heavy cooperation, but He still hopes that Sony Columbia Pictures can participate in it, otherwise it will be a waste of time to just rely on Sony classics to make independent art films.

It would be bad if Sony Columbia missed the opportunity and got the other competitors.

Tom's reaction was only a little slow for half a beat, and Andre had already realized that as if he could see through Tom's inner thoughts at a glance, a playful light flashed again in the depths of his eyes.

Anyone who really knows Renly knows that he never fights an unprepared battle, just look at his preparations on set for the show; once he gets serious, the war really begins.

Andre's part is just the first wave of Sisyphus Pictures. Arthur Hall and Eaton Dormer are still in London, and even Matthew Dunlop has used his contacts. So much so that Henry Dunlop was alarmed, and Henry specifically called Andre to inquire about the specific situation.

Andre was a little curious. If Hollywood bigwigs learned about Renly's entire blueprint, how would they react? But thinking about it carefully, the conclusion is really too simple, so that Andre began to get bored again.

"You have forty-eight hours to think about it." Andrei didn't wait for Tom's answer, he simply ended it neatly, then gave Tom a bright smile, nodded, and then turned and left.

Tom's footsteps stayed where he was, and his heart was a little stuck. He always felt that something big was about to happen, but now that he was in it, he couldn't spy on the whole situation from a high position, and could only vaguely capture some details. , some anxious, some expecting and some uneasy.

He needs to make a few calls.

...

The Golden Globe Awards Ceremony is getting closer, the craze of the awards season is reaching its peak step by step, the whole Hollywood is surging, and major film companies are working together to accelerate the final stage of the Oscar nomination list to be announced. .

But hidden behind this turbulent wave, there is another undercurrent surging quietly, mixed in the news of the college's public relations, the truth and the false, the false and the true, some people can keenly capture a little There are clues, and more people take it for granted that "it's just a college PR essay".

In any era and any society, news is a vital source of power, just as those isolated mountainous areas are bound to lag behind the development of the times. Even Hollywood is no exception.

Warner Bros. got it, Disney got it, Sony Columbia got it, but Universal was kept in the dark. As for 20th Century Fox and Paramount, who are still struggling, no one cares if they know.

Steven Spielberg, Harvey Weinstein, Jerry Bruckheimer and other top bigwigs in the industry have all smelled the breath of the wind and the wind is coming. People and top actors feel the flow of abnormal breath, but they keep it a secret.

The game of chess is like this. Some people can only see one or three moves, while others can see ten or even fifteen moves. If you can't see it, you can't see it. Even if someone helps explain it, you can't see it. As for those who are masters Confrontation, it must look at computing power and layout ability.

Thomas Tour could vaguely perceive the abnormality, but no one was willing to tell it calmly; Vin Diesel didn't even notice the abnormality at all, still thinking about how to seize the opportunity when he attended the Golden Globe Awards , to expand his network and take advantage of Paul Walker's still in bed to create more positive reputation for himself.

Andy Rogers is now busier than ever before, and his feet are completely off the ground. Not to mention the top brokers of the Creative Artists Agency, even Roy Lockley has come to help temporarily, in major cities throughout the North American continent. Fly around and complete the layout with Sisyphus at the center.

It was an endless net that seemed to leave no room for breathing and escape at all.
