"So, did you still refuse?" In a car in the parking lot, Kapoor sat on the driver's seat and looked helplessly at the Eric on the co-pilot.

Thinking of the scene just now, Eric sighed and nodded.

Although Spielberg did not show any displeasure when he left, he regretted that if he changed his mind, he could contact him again. But Eric still knew that he had offended the famous Jewish Director. This can be seen from the ignorance of the Spielberg assistant's gaze.

If it was Spielberg ’s previous intention to purchase copyright through others, and Eric ’s refusal was not yet serious, this time the rejection was much more serious. Spielberg came forward in person, which is a very sincere expression, even equivalent to a Humanity sent to the door. If this sale is completed, Eric will not only be able to reap a generous copyright transfer fee, but also get Spielberg's goodwill, this network may give him a great help when.

But it is impossible for him to be human, even if it is a very serious human relationship, he will transfer out a very important piece in his future career layout.

"Jurassic Park" involves a huge industrial chain with a value of 10 billion USD. Although Eric has never thought about monopolization, it must at least ensure that it will get the most delicious piece from this big cake in the future. Once copyright is sold, then he will completely lose the dominance of this project, and at most can only share some leftover soup after others eat meat and drink.

"Eric, would you like to hear my suggestions?" Kapoor asked.

"I know what you want to say, immediately contact Spielberg and sell the movie copyright to him, right? Kapoor, there is no room for discussion on this matter, I will not sell it."

Kapoor touched his bald head with annoyance: "Eric, have you ever thought about your situation? You are now in a state of singles, you seem to be familiar with those Film Studio executives, but this is completely Based on pure benefits. The reason why the other party is so good to you now is because all of your first few films have been successful and brought them huge benefits. But no one will continue to succeed, and Once you fail, it ’s time for them to turn their faces. "

Eric self-channel: "I think for quite a long time, I will not experience the failure you said, I am very confident in my movie."

"There are many factors for failure, and may even be artificial." Kapoor then said: "Eric, think about it, relative to your strength, you get too much. Two times or even three or four at a time. Fortunately, they only think you are a lucky little guy, but if this is the case, those giants will suppress you at all costs and even destroy you. Just like the lions on the grassland, they will allow hyenas They nibble at the rest of their food, but absolutely do n’t allow a weak hyena to occupy more than a lion. "

Eric opened his mouth, but could n’t think of any rebuttal. He knew what Kapoor said, but he still hoped he could find some strong allies. Then, in the future, when he might encounter suppression, he would Will not fall into a situation of complete isolation.

Spielberg wants to get the "Jurassic Park" movie copyright. This is an excellent opportunity to make good friends with each other. Once he sells copyright, the movie's screenwriter is definitely impossible to get rid of him. Spielberg may have promised Firefly can participate in investment These provide conditions for him to contact Spielberg and establish a good personal relationship, but Eric is still unwilling to think about it.

Kapoor noticed the struggle and hesitation in Eric expression and continued to persuade: "Eric, do you know which Film Studio is your Firefly most like Hollywood?"

Eric raised his head curiously, Kapoor did not sell the lawsuit: "Most like United Artists, Chaplin and several other famous Directors founded United Artists. This company is positioned as a pure production company. Dedicated to providing excellent films to other major giants, much like Firefly, which does not have any distribution channels now. As a result, those film giants with perfect distribution channels have survived except Radio-Keith-Orpheum, which was in bad luck. United Artists, which other giants also called, has become a subsidiary of Metro Goldwyn Mayer. A big reason for this is that United Artists was too focused on the production business and ignored the expansion of its own distribution channels.

Eric heard the Kapoor saying this, and the DreamWorks that he is most familiar with immediately popped up in his mind. It seems that the history is always surprisingly similar.

And later generations often see the word "channel is king" in some economic articles. In the memory of previous life, some second-line Film Studio with better development of Hollywood, such as Lion Gate Film Industry, Miramax, are all issued. Started. The Spielberg's DreamWorks and later new DreamWorks can only float between the giants Universal, Paramount, Disney, and sometimes they have to struggle to the point of being scattered for the 1% split.

"And the current Firefly is not as good as the original United Artists, and it has almost no distribution capabilities. Those film giantss that monopolize most of the distribution channels are too simple to clean up. So you need some keys now. You can really help your allies at any time. Once a bad situation occurs, someone can help you shake the flag Nà and match the bridge instead of falling into a lonely situation. It is impossible for a hyena to make friends with a lion, but it is not between the same kind. There is a gap. In this case, the Spielberg has been delivered to you, and you still push it out, which is simply unwise. "

If Eric is a native of this time and space, after persuasion by Kapoor and coaxing and intimidation, he will surely obey "Jurassic Park", but he is not.

"Okay, Kapoor, I get it." Eric nodded, looking like a teacher.

Kapoor happily handed his big brother to Eric: "Then call the Spielberg, don't be afraid that the other party will think you are fickle, Eric, you are a young man, with this privilege, Spielberg will not mind. "

Eric took the brick Motorola and put a pad in his hand: "Kapoor, I just said that I understood the importance of the distribution channel to Firefly. It did not say that I would sell" Jurassic Park "copyright to Spielberg."

Bashing-

Sitting in the back seat and listening quietly to the conversation between the two, Virginia couldn't help laughing, realizing his gaffe and quickly covering his mouth.

Kapoor seemed to be choked, staring at Eric with eyes wide open, and finally disappointed to take back his big brother: "As you please, I can say everything. Jeffrey is right, you What a stubborn to paranoid young man. "

"Relax, Kapoor, I have my own plan, you think about it, I am a British United States, I still have United Kingdom nationality. So even if I have a good relationship with Spielberg, I ’m doomed to enter the Jews. Circles. "

Eric is not without considering these things. Among the several movies of Firefly this year, his next three movies have already made an appearance, one for Columbia and the other two for Fox according to the previous contract. .

Although the other three movies have not yet determined the distributor, he has received a lot of information from the Sixth Congress on distribution intentions. As long as he wants, he can sign a distribution contract at any time.

If all these movies can be sold like Box Office like previous life, then they can accumulate a large amount of original funds for him. Even if one or two of them is not ideal because of the butterfly effect Box Office, it will not hurt him a bit, at most only a little less. After all, except for Columbia who made an injustice and threw 40 million USD 《Running Out of Time》, several other planned movies The investment is within 10 million, even if only one is as big as previous life, he can recover all the investment and make a sum of money.

After this year, as Kapoor said, the giants will surely realize that he is taking too much, and will do everything possible to suppress him and squeeze the benefits he deserves, but by that time he already had enough original accumulation to deal with It won't be without resistance.

Not to mention that the Sixth Congress will not really hold him in groups to suppress him, even if this kind of thing with a probability of less than 1% really happens, then slowly recuperate. Moreover, Eric also does not believe that if they have the ability to bring huge benefits to each other, the giants will reach an agreement for a long time to deal with him. Many people are uneven, and all three monks may have no water to drink, let alone six !

"Kapoor, come here tonight. The car is borrowed for my use. You can drive my car."

Kapoor glanced at the girl sitting in the back seat of car and shook her head: "No, Eric, car cannot be borrowed in any way, not to mention you still drink. I will take you home."

"Kapoor, don't need to be so real, don't think you can be a light bulb by shaving your head." Eric teased silently, Virginia sitting in the back seat had already dropped his head with shame.

Kapoor smiled and said: "You misunderstood, I am not so ignorant, I mean I will send you back, I only drink a few sips of champagne, and more importantly, I am very experienced in throwing paparazzi, It was with this skill that I was able to get my first employer. I do n’t want to run public relations for your two lace news tomorrow morning. Eric, Beverly Hills or Malibu? "

"My home, Malibu is too far away."

"Well, if you take the back seat, the front row may be photographed."

Eric moved from the back to the back seat, Kapoor sent car out of the underground parking lot, and just got on the road. Several car obviously followed. After a while, Kapoor looked at the rearview mirror and smiled: "A total of three paparazzi car followed up. Fortunately, there are many goals on party, otherwise there may be a long tail."
