In many cases, the real strong emotions are hidden under the surface; similarly, in many cases, the shadow of the sword is not visible in the real high-level combat. There is no blood to kill, or even a corpse. You can only see a string of numbers. This is the cruelest and bloodiest killing.
The same is true for Tours and Diesel.
On the surface, Diesel demolished Meyer’s office, and he was the one who rushed to the crown; but in reality, Tur had already lost all his territory in a desperate manner. At this moment, he was so angry. , Is the one that truly possesses the astonishing energy to destroy the heavens and the earth.
Tour thought that he had formed a confrontation, and even grasped all the situation in his chest. He was sure and affirmed that he had grasped the lifeblood of Universal Pictures. Even if the situation changed, he could not get rid of his control, but he did not expect Lan Li to be able to curve. The land of salvation solved the problem, and arranging a net of heaven and earth from the root cause, did not leave Turre with any chance to resist.
This makes him look like a fool.
On the "Jurassic Park" restart project, now Tour has completely lost the overall situation-of course, he can still become a producer and can still control the situation; but he has the full support of Universal Pictures. Li, and Ren Li, who has the full support of Steven Spielberg and Frank Marshall, is no longer an object that Tour can move.
What's more ridiculous is that Tour didn't even realize his crisis—just like Diesel. It wasn't until today that Meyer awakened him face to face, and he suddenly realized.
Now I look back at the thunderous and raging anger at the beginning of today's meeting. He thought he was playing tricks to seize the opportunity, but he didn't know that the result was already doomed. All his reactions were just dying struggles. Just like a clown, losing all but still unaware.
The anger reached the extreme, the suffocation reached the extreme, but a sense of absurdity grew out of it, and then I couldn't help but... want to laugh.
It's incredible and self-deprecating.
However, Tour is not Diesel after all. As the head of Legendary Pictures, he not only won the trust of Wall Street Capital, but also dared to challenge Warner Bros. His ability, insight, courage, wisdom and pattern are all far above Diesel. , Naturally will not be defeated so easily and simply.
On the eardrum, you can faintly feel the trivial sound of gum collision and tightening. The entire forehead and head shell began to vibrate slightly, but only for a moment, the instant release and the instant convergence, the anger reached its extreme peak, it collapsed, and then the emotions were like warmth. The sun was spreading over the snowy field and began to warm up slowly.
Sanity finally returned to the body again.
Tours now have options.
He can continue to complain and protest endlessly, emphasize his dissatisfaction, and truly let Meyer understand his position; he can use the word "drag" to avoid the decision on the spot today, but calm down after leaving the conference room and plan for a long time; He can start bargaining for other projects on the condition of nodding his head and agree to the Lanly performance; he can launch a counterattack on the spot and do his best to fight for his power in the "Jurassic Park"; he can also seek perfection through imperfections The gesture made Meyer understand what sacrifices he made to promote the project and strive for more compensatory terms for himself.
He can do this or that.
Just like Diesel, even if you choose to compromise, there are still many ways of confrontation and contests. The matter is far from over—to be more precise, it has just begun.
But Tour did not choose this way.
Because Tur knows that his own struggle is useless-he just tried to force Universal Pictures to submit under the threat of withdrawing from the project, but Meyer did not, this is the best attitude. This also means that, at least in the "Jurassic Park" project, his position and position have not had much advantage.
As for the details of the distribution of power and the control of the crew, they are actually trivial matters. Lan Li is absolutely impossible to care about these trivial matters; and he cares about in a ruined situation, only to make himself more petty.
As for the future cooperation between Universal Pictures and Legendary Pictures, when it comes to the specific project, the two sides will inevitably have a game. The gains and losses in this confrontation will be taken into consideration by both parties, and then they will be liquidated a little bit. Both Meyer and Tur are smart people, and they will remember everything that should be remembered, and those that are forgotten are those that choose to forget. There is no need to repeat the reminders babblingly now.
To put it simply, Tour can choose to get back in the details in a petty way, or he can choose to show his mind in a straightforward manner.
There is no distinction between right and wrong, just the attitude to behave in the world determined by vision and perspective.
The fingers of his right hand that was tapping the desktop stopped, and Tour raised his gaze to look at Meyer.
Meyer was not in a hurry, just like an old monk in Ding, sitting quietly in place, without any extra sight processing. He had been aware of Tur's gaze, and then he raised his eyes and cast a suspicious gaze, just like he was. I don't know what Tur's silent thinking is struggling at all, and I don't know how big a bomb he said just now.
The old fox is the old fox.
A smile appeared at the corner of Tur's mouth, and he laughed lightly, "Obviously, you and Bob saw things that I didn't notice."
They all saw the value of Lan Li, but he didn't. As a result, he fell behind and lost his advantage.
Tour dissolved the atmosphere in this way of self-deprecating, expressing his softening-which also means that all the previous rattling has completely melted and collapsed.
One sentence of self-deprecation can be seen as a transition or a step. Both Tour and Meyer can adjust the attitude of the next negotiation.
Meyer didn't speak or express, still staring at Tur quietly, but his eyes slowed down significantly. To be precise, after dealing with Diesel's business and returning, Meyer has no longer continued to remain strong, and has already put his own attitude in an understatement.
Now, because Tur's attitude has also softened, the atmosphere in the entire conference room has gradually returned to calm.
"If that's the case, then let's do it." Toul said in the simplest and most direct way, but he has also completed the calculation between the flashing stones.
"This time, Legendary Pictures will still participate in the production of the'Jurassic Park' restart project, but we will only participate in one-third of the production cost, and we will focus more on'hacker confrontation' and "Warcraft" on the two works; in addition, we will also speed up the pace of negotiations with China Mainland Film Company."
It was only a few words before and after it revealed too much information.
First, Legendary Pictures did not directly withdraw from the "Jurassic Park" project, but Tour reduced the proportion of investment costs in this way to express his strong dissatisfaction. There is no need for the entanglement of the squeaky and crooked entanglement, just like this, the result is announced simply and neatly-just like Meyer, he is also treated in the same way as Meyer.
Second, Legendary Pictures will focus more on the other two projects. "Clash of the Hackers" is a work directed by Michael Mann. The protagonist is Chris Hemsworth, and Tour is the well-deserved number one system. Filmmaker; "Warcraft" is a film adapted from Blizzard's classic game. This is also the next major cooperation project between Universal Pictures and Legendary Pictures. Tour is still the top producer. These two works emphasize Tour's true needs!
Third, Legendary Pictures will focus on developing the China market. Because of the special regulations of the China Film Market, co-production is obviously a more clever way, and they are actively looking for partners. When mentioning this matter at this moment, Tour is actually faintly threatening Meyer-Universal Pictures needs Tour’s help to open up the situation in the China market, and now the two sides are not ready to tear their faces, but Meyer is also the best. Don't get overwhelmed.
Meyer is a hero, and Tur is definitely not a soft persimmon.
Indeed, on the "Jurassic Park" project ~www.novelhall.com~ Tour was forced to compromise. He really does not have much room for maneuver now. In the head-to-head confrontation with Lanly, Tour was at a disadvantage; but the legendary shadow The cooperation between the industry and Universal Pictures will not happen overnight, and the conflict of interests between the two parties will continue.
Meyer chose Lanli and Dark Universe, while Tour chose Huaxia Market.
Both have shown their bargaining chips, and the battle has risen from the level of a movie to the entire future development plan.
I have to say that Tur's decisive decisiveness is really admirable.
But Meyer was not worried at all. He nodded slightly to express his understanding, but did not directly say that it is definitely or negative, but said lightly, "Obviously, the details of the next cooperation are a huge project. It is better to have brunch together. , Sit down and start the discussion slowly, what do you think?"
When the voice fell, Meyer added, "If we have more plans for the China Market, I think we can invite Lan Li to join our discussion in the future. Obviously, he has more say in the China Market. Have you seen the news about Lan Li’s trip to the magic city in November? I think'Jurassic Park' should strive to be released in China. What do you think?"
After all, Meyer is not Kevin Tsujihara or Bob Iger, and his fiery temper can still be seen, and he is still unreasonable when he has the upper hand.
As soon as Tour started to fight back, Meyer immediately slammed back:
China Market? That is Lanly's back garden, and the miracle created by "gravity" on that piece of land has already caused a sensation in the entire North American film market. Tours thought Meyer was acting recklessly? But in fact, Meyer had already thought about it.
Tour's face was a little stiff.
But what is certain is that the confrontation between Tour and Meyer is far from over.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
