"Unfortunately, the distribution rights have been announced by others a long time ago, otherwise this year's Park City is bound to be a lively event."
The first meeting of Bob Iger brought a lot of surprises to Lan Li. Even though it was a question discussed from the perspective of a businessman, he still showed his old ways: no mention of Sony classics, just a sentence of "other people" I lightly carried it over, and the whole topic focused more on the second half of the sentence.
Everyone can see Bob’s boldness and decisiveness, from Pixar to Marvel, from Lucasfilm to Twentieth Century Fox, successive large-scale mergers and acquisitions, allowing Disney to take the lead everywhere on the copyright road. The absolute dominance of the era of "copyright is king" was under control, and the opponents were beyond the reach of the dust.
But few people can see the delicacy and wisdom behind these decisions: Why buy these companies? And how do you master the initiative in the acquisition process? After the completion of the acquisition, how to complete the architectural integration? Finally, how to solve the problem of personnel scheduling and embark on the track of fighting side by side?
This is all Bob's wisdom.
It is true that after the acquisition of Pixar and Lucasfilm, their works gradually lost their edges and corners and gradually reduced to Disney-style assembly line works. After Marvel, it became another money-making merchandise series. The humanity/warmth, and the space epic of the Star Wars series are all disappearing, and all the works under Disney are slowly becoming more and more similar, without edges or distinctive features.
However, leaving aside the corners and characteristics of these artistic creations, Bob can integrate Pixar and Lucasfilm into the Disney system smoothly and smoothly. This is what his predecessor Michael Eisner could not do.
Although he led Disney to make a comeback and became one of the six major Hollywood studios, Michael Eisner was called a "tyrant" in the industry. He always acted arbitrarily, hoping to control everything under his nose. This makes his relationship with a series of senior management talents tense.
Including Michael Ovitz (michael-ovitz), who was the original founder of an innovative artist management company and later transferred to Disney as president, and the Weinstein brothers, CEO of Miramax Films. Irreconcilable contradictions have seriously affected the follow-up development of Disney.
This shows Bob's ability.
Later, there were rumors that after Bob retired from the CEO position, he would participate in the presidential election. It may seem like a joke, but it has powerful possibilities when studied in detail. What's more, Ronald Reagan once did it. Why couldn't Bob Iger?
Bob's calm and introverted style can be regarded as a distinctive style in Hollywood, and many people should be quite uncomfortable when confronted with it; but for Lan Li, it is knowing the bottom line.
The smile at the corner of Lan Li's mouth rose slightly, "Why don't I know that Disney is actually interested?"
"Burst Drummer" works like this, Disney is absolutely not interested, even if they want to hit the Oscars, they will not produce and distribute.
Facing Lan Li’s calm ridicule, Bob did not panic, and said frankly, “The polite remarks have been dismantled.” On the contrary, such a straightforward response made the atmosphere more lively. “But I have to admit that it should be now. Everyone is eager to work with you. Even if it is not a work like "Burst Drummer", we have countless possibilities."
"It's like'Big Hero Hero 6'? Animation dubbing is my first attempt." Lan Li said.
Bob lightly chins his head in agreement, "It's like'Super Hero Marines.'" He answered smoothly and sincerely, still dripping water, and then the conversation turned, he cut into the real theme, "I don't know if you are interested in and What about Disney’s cooperation? We can sign a cooperation agreement for five works, with you as the producer and acting in person. I think this will be a very exciting thing to look forward to."
It seems abrupt and seems to have no warning, but when you think about it carefully, from the beginning of the meeting, Bob has been paving the way, and the atmosphere is created in both words and words. Now that such a cooperative proposal is put forward, it does not seem to be a matter of course. It will make people feel repulsive. With this ability to control, you can clearly see Bob's strength.
"Five works?" Lan Li raised his eyebrows slightly, did not conceal his surprise, and looked at Bob with a slight surprise, "You mean my five works or Disney's five works? "
Simply put, it is the difference in creative initiative; further, it is the difference between individuals and companies. Lan Li now has a production company, Sisyphus Pictures.
In Park City, the future development direction has been initially determined. Aside from major events in the development of sales channels for the time being, it is at least certain that Renly’s future will be tied to Sisyphus Pictures, which also makes all relevant negotiations must Adjustment.
Bob let out a low laugh, and did not answer directly, "I heard before that you and Paul Walker, Jessica Chastain and others are planning a new project? I think this is a very interesting thing. , I don’t know what style you plan to choose?"
In fact, this is the answer. It is not the cooperation with Sisyphus Pictures, but the personal cooperation with Lan Li. You can refer to the previous cooperation agreement between Christopher Nolan and Warner Bros.
So, does Bob know that Sisyphus Pictures and Sony Classic have reached a cooperation agreement?
But what is certain is that Bob must be ignorant of Sisyphus Pictures’ ambitions. Otherwise, he would know that Lanly’s works are now tied to Sisyphus Pictures, and the form of cooperation is limited. A change must be made.
Of course, even if the news comes out, Bob can still choose to cooperate with Renly, just like commercial films like "Jurassic Park" and "Interstellar". The cooperation between Renly and the six major Hollywood studios is still Can continue. It's just that the cooperation model and content are different.
For example, Tom Cruise's "Mission Impossible" series, he cooperates with Paramount in his personal capacity, and has a cooperation agreement with the two production companies of Sky Dance and Bad Robot. Similar to the production of Legendary Pictures The company, during the negotiation process, Tom’s producer rights are unique and can be regarded as the top in the industry.
"Aha, we are in discussions. In fact, this time in Park City, I discussed this idea with Joel and Ethan. They thought it was very interesting. They also thought they could provide some inspiration or creativity, but it evolved from the script. It’s not an easy task to become a project. When the busy time is over, we are ready to sit down and talk.” Lan Li said with a smile, but did not answer Bob’s question directly.
If Lan Li is willing to cooperate, or if the project urgently needs a production company, then this is the best time. He must follow Bob's topic and then seek Disney's cooperation.
But Lan Li did not. This also means that the emergence of Sisyphus Pictures has provided more possibilities for Lan Li, and his position and position have changed. Now, even if Bob didn't know their plan, he could still see Lan Li's attitude.
Bob understood in an instant that the point was not whether the cooperation could be achieved, but that the partner was no longer an independent individual like Lanly, but should be Sisyphus Pictures as a whole.
I further thought that this time Renly should have gained a lot from Sundance, and people in the industry can see that Renly, like the Weinstein brothers, act frequently, and news should continue to come out next. Although it is not possible to know the specific situation of Sundance for the time being, this is enough for Bob.
Bob was not frustrated or disappointed either. There was still no change on the surface, as if the conversation just now was just a joke in the chat. It is indeed the case. It is just a test. The next thing is the real. Play meat, "Wow, then we will wait and see. However, we now have a confirmed project at hand. I wonder if you have a schedule next?"
coming.
Lan Li did not speak, but watched Bob quietly.
Strictly speaking, the idea that Lan Li and his friends conceived, the best partner for cooperation has never been Disney. On the contrary, Disney’s family carnival attribute may become a stumbling block for the project ~www.novelhall.com~ Let Lan Li and his friends create ideas Tie hands and feet. Both Renly and Bob knew this clearly, so after Bob's temptation just now, Renly didn't take it seriously, and Bob didn't delve into it. Now it comes to the topic.
"We have talked about it a few times before, but because the framework of the script is not mature, the settings of all the characters are not mature, and it has been overturned and rebuilt several times, so there is no way to determine it. Until now. Then he said, but didn't cut directly to the real theme, but said unhurriedly, "We all know that you have your own insistence on the script and the characters."
"I used to think that after such a reputation spread, I guess I would start to lose my job." Lan Li interjected, jokingly.
Bob chuckled lightly. "I must admit that I was scared off once. God, the last thing Disney princesses need is personality."
Beautiful self-black!
A smile appeared in Lan Li's eyes, "And the prince doesn't need it anymore."
Bob laughed directly, "But now, I think we need to make a little change. We want to be able to interpret a real flesh and blood story, and then build the whole world. You know, the reason why the world of Star Wars It’s fascinating because it has fresh vitality, so we hope to fill the entire world with more stories."
"Of course, there are still many things to be changed and added to the story and characters of the script. We also look forward to determining the corresponding actors, their personal temperament can collide with the characters and help the screenwriters complete a huge story. The disadvantage of this is that it may be difficult to start shooting within this year; but the advantage is that we still have enough time to polish it slowly."
All in one go.
