"How could I be happy, I just entangled a movie by Michael Eisner," Eric said helplessly.

Although Eric did not say it clearly, Jeffrey quickly understood what he said: "What ... what conditions does Disney give?"

"Not yet," Eric shook his head: "I just made a verbal promise to Michael Eisner."

Jeffrey breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, just a movie. Anyway, you made a movie like a hen laying eggs. However, I heard a news two days ago that Disney is about to suspend overseas distribution of Warner with the movie. Cooperation in this respect, all the business will be handed over to Bowei International. "

"What does this have to do with me?" Eric didn't care about Jeffrey's ridicule, and he was too lazy to think about it and asked directly.

"Of course it does. After breaking off cooperation with Warner, Disney will definitely be messed up in overseas distribution. It is estimated that Broadway International will take at least half a year to integrate this business. If you agree to the Disney's movie is arranged in In the first half of next year, Bowei is likely to be used as a cannon fodder for exploring overseas markets. If it is placed in the second half of the year, it will be much better. "

Eric wondered: "It is unlikely that Disney will use my movies as cannon fodder, do they not want to make money?"

Jeffrey put the handkerchief into his pocket and greeted the waiter who brought a glass of red wine before saying, "The behemoth like Disney is not the Box Office benefit of a two-movie, they look more The expansion of the Chinese channel. The influence that your previous films have accumulated in the world is the best tool for expanding the channel. Disney is under the name of your movie, and at the same time allows some interests to contact overseas distributors. It will make a lot of things smooth. Maybe a movie will be released. Disney can establish new distribution channels in several countries. Compared to these channels that can create profits for a long time, a film has some advantages. What did it count? "

Eric nodded clearly. Disney used its own video as an opener, so in the process, it will definitely lose a lot of Box Office overseas due to unsound channels. If so, Disney has expanded its channels. But he and Firefly can not get any benefits. Although the share of overseas Box Office is not high, it is based on the overseas Box Office scale of his previous films. That is also a benefit of USD level. He did not sacrifice his good intentions to achieve Disney's unless Disney can compensate his loss in advance.

To understand this, Eric also made up his mind. At the same time, I asked: "Jeffrey, I just remembered, you said there is nothing to talk about with Robert Shay, what do you mean?"

"There is nothing more to talk about, Robert Shay fixes 15% of the shares plus the cash price of 60 million USD, and I will not retreat in one step, so I hurried to come to you, this matter also you Chairman do Decide. "

Eric thought about it. Asked again: "Are you sure this is his final bottom line?"

Jeffrey nodded: "Ok, Robert Shay has also made it clear that this is the final bottom line. One step will not retreat, and ..." Speaking of which, Jeffrey showed a strange smile: "Robert Shay also specifically followed I said that unless you are willing to agree to this price, he will not be accepting any invitation to meet you. "

"Uh ... this." Eric was puzzled in an instant.

Jeffrey did n’t make him wonder for too long, so he laughed and explained: “When you first ate with him. Those words probably made him too impressed, he was afraid to confront you again. I could n’t help but flinch. Well, I felt that it must be so. Although I did n’t attend that meeting, it seemed that in the end, blood boiling, which was instigated by Robert Shay, was a big step forward, right? "

"So how can it be instigated, I'm talking about facts," Eric retorted with a smile.

"Anyway, this is the case. In fact, I think the price is quite reasonable. After all, the new line is a 20-year old company. I will put more thoughts on the preparation of" Sleepless in Seattle "and then buy For the new line I'll be leaving things to you, I have also sorted out the relevant documents and will let the secretary send you to your office tomorrow. "

"Well, I know," Eric nodded and looked at Jeffrey with some anxiety: "Jeffrey, you know, if the acquisition is successful, you may ..."

Jeffrey patted the shoulders of Eric and gave him a square look: "I have figured it out these days. I gave the position of CEO to Robert Shay. I just need to make a Chairman for production, even Vice Chairman is also acceptable. "

"Thank you, Jeffrey," Eric is grateful for this fat old man who has spared no effort to support himself from the beginning of "Home Alone".

"Do we still need to talk about these," Jeffrey held up the red wine, and bumped into the Eric that came together, and remembered one more thing, and asked, "Oh, can Jonathan Demme work alone in Venice, Would you like me to follow along? In fact, if you can, let Kapoor go better. He has more relationships in Europe. Unfortunately, he is a manager and he does not plan to change careers. "

"Michael Eisner talked to me before you came, he will use some Disney's resources to help with this matter, and strive to get an award in Venice Film Festival. In this nine-member jury, John Landis happens to be Hollywood Director. "

Jeffrey condensed his eyebrows for a moment and thought: "John Landis, the Director of the" United States Journey "that was sold last year?"

"Well, John Landis is actually better at horror movies, so, you know, the theme of" The Others "plus the label of the Hollywood movie will definitely add a lot of impression points to him, and Disney will also send someone to contact him. "

"When are you going to Venice?"

"A few days after the opening ceremony, the awards ceremony will have to wait until mid-September. I certainly can't stay there for so long. I don't plan to go there anymore at the awards ceremony, and suddenly found that I will be too tight next year this year. , September and October, and at most plus the first half of November, you must make all of "Sleepless in Seattle" and "Home Alone2". During this period, you have to be busy with new lines. I must also pay attention to the 《Scent of a Woman》 later in Al Now, I have no more free time in the day. "Eric quickly calculated and complained.

"Who told you to do so many things at once, most of the Director can direct two movies in a year. It is good for you to put out four plans at once, and also produce two." Jeffrey laughed: "Next year you Surely you will not be so busy? "

"I will not be killed, I will have a good rest next year, live so much, I have not enjoyed my life yet!"

"Yeah, I have lived for nineteen years," Jeffrey teased with a little envy, looked around, and patted Eric on the shoulder: "If you are tired, go back early, I saw some acquaintances , Say hello in the past. "

"Well," Eric responded, not planning to get up, Jeffrey did not mind, picked up the wine and stood up and left.

Eric slowly sipped the remaining red wine in the glass and planned to leave here to rest after drinking, but soon a tall and slender girl wearing a silver fish-patterned tube dress appeared in front of him.

"Eric, I always wanted to say hello to you, but there are always people around you," Brooke Shields generously sat down next to Eric.

"You are so beautifully dressed tonight, Brooke," Eric smiled and raised the red wine in his hand to Brooke Shields.

"Thank you, but some people always look down on it," the girl showed a look of resentment, and seemed to mind that Eric had rejected her several times in a row.

Eric chuckled and did not answer this question. The girl has always been very good at this kind of expression that teases the man ’s mind, but perhaps before 《Running Out of Time》, Brooke Shields still wanted to rely on him, and now the girl is relying on the amazing encounter of 《Running Out of Time》 The role of the girl is no longer necessary to get the role by paying for the body.

Looking up and down at the beauty of the girl, he really wants the girl to stand up and turn around in front of him so that he can appreciate it: "I heard that you recently received a big production movie from Warner, what is it, no Will it be the sequel to "Batman"? "The sequel to" Batman "is definitely a big hit, but this time it can participate in the blockbuster film with a cost of 100 million yuan, which can gain greater fame by itself.

Brooke Shields shook his head, and there was a smile on the corner of his mouth: "No, I talked with Warner, I chose to cooperate with Disney, so I just appeared here today."

"Oh, that's really ... not a shame, what film is Disney's, easy to disclose?" Eric asked curiously.

Brooke Shields nodded: "I can't say more about it, but the name is temporarily set to" Rocketeer ". It may be renamed later, so I can tell you."

"Rocket ... Expert," Eric almost spouted a sip of red wine. The movie should be released in 1991, so at least wait until next year. Eric knows the emergence of because oneself, although many Hollywood movies have not disappeared, but shoots and the progress of the release have become at sixes and sevens. However, these are not the key points. The key point is that Eric just remembers this movie. This is the previous life that has allowed Jennifer Connelly to take a shadow for five years!

Eric looked up and down at Brooke Shields, and the girl still maintained the softer image in 《Running Out of Time》. Obviously she also realized that this image is more suitable for her development in Hollywood than the glamorous appearance before.

However, in the heart of Eric, Tsk Tsk twice, how bad this girl's vision is to step on such a big hole. (To be continued)
