Ace Hollywood

??? Robert Iger is right, which is why Saya of New Line Films, after learning about this incident, asked Daniel to side with Lord of the Rings rather than discussing with him In a way that both parties are satisfied with.

Both New Line and Disney have something in common.

For Disney, Pirates of the Caribbean is destined to have a sequel, and even Robert's idea is to finish the second and third parts consecutively, so as to avoid more uncertainties. At the box office, with the box office of Pirates of the Caribbean, even Orlando Bloom and Keira Knightley may have to ask for tens of millions of dollars, let alone Daniel Sandler, whose investment rights are On the one hand, but that is already a certainty, Daniel's own salary will definitely not be soft.

If the second part can talk about 20+10, that is, 20 million plus 10% share, it is already the best plan. For the third part, the price tag is probably more than 20+20 Hollywood's top salary configuration. In this way, coupled with the investment rights and interests of DD Films, basically Daniel will take more than 45% of the entire film's revenue, which is really beyond what Robert can accept.

Therefore, taking this opportunity, on the one hand, it can increase the box office of Pirates of the Caribbean, which is basically Disney's income. It would be better if it can be higher; They can't get enough of people of color. Apart from these two points, the rest is to teach Daniel how to behave. In this way, when negotiating the investment of the next film, Daniel can give up his share and increase his basic salary moderately. Even 30 million or even 40 million is better than taking away 10 points.

As for the new line, their considerations are not much different from Disney.

The most important of these is that the prequel of The Lord of the Rings, that is, the filming of The Hobbit, Legolas must be added to the new story. In this way, the original 70,000 US dollars, and even the 1 million added later, is such a good thing. It's no longer possible. But let them spend 10 million or more, just for a role with few roles, Saya is really not reconciled. Not to mention, with the habit of DD Films, maybe. They also offer to invest.

The Hobbit has enough stakeholders, MGM, New Line, Miramax, Weta Digital, if there is another DD Pictures, the motivation of New Line to make a project will be pitifully weak. After all, you put all your heart and soul into this matter, made the movie, and only accounted for a small half of the money in the end. This is hard to make people feel satisfied anyway.

Especially companies like New Line Films have always hoped that they can get meat out of other people's bowls. Never want to part out the cake and let others take a bite.

Although Disney and New Line were rivals in this matter, the two still knew each other well and maintained a tacit understanding.

...

Hear Daniel analyze the lap.

Even Kusa was speechless for a while.

Last time, after their discussion, Kusa contacted Finn Collins. Finn and Daniel had a very pleasant cooperation. The proposal to appoint Daniel as the honorary chairman of the Peace and Peace Committee was even proposed by Finn himself. As Daniel's influence grew, so did the Equal Rights Alliance, especially on peace issues. The protest plan proposed by them has the most people participating, and the most social people who are willing to stand out, naturally. It is also the most influential.

This is a virtuous circle. Now that Fein is the leader, more and more people will come to him, which will further promote his influence.

If you want to enter politics, or continue to advance in social affairs, you will have more leeway.

So Daniel contacted him here. He was of course serious, and arranged several events for Daniel, such as visiting young offenders, speaking at a public anniversary, and so on.

But before all this could be done, Daniel thought of another meaning.

The reason why he thought of this was because he called Lon Meyer, hoping that Universal Pictures could cooperate with him, but he was politely rejected.

This made Daniel have to start thinking about what else he hadn't thought of.

Robert’s toughness, New Line’s brutality, and Universal’s refusal—these are already three of the top seven companies. If MGM, which has been suffering from internal troubles and crumbling recently, is removed, the three companies have already occupied half of Hollywood. This is a situation that cannot be overemphasized.

Why?

The result is actually not difficult to imagine, as long as you turn this corner and take yourself a little more seriously, you will be able to see all this clearly.

Obviously, his rapid rise in Hollywood's discourse power has already made these Hollywood giants feel threatened, and they tried to suppress Daniel in a mutual tacit way.

This is from Disney, we underestimated Robert too much. Daniel let out a sigh of relief, In this case, the previous strategy may not work, Kusa, please contact Stacy Schneider, I want to have an interview with her .”

what do you want to do?

Daniel got up from the sofa, paused, and then smiled, Since they plan to do this, of course I want to play with them, the rise of DD Films, how far I, Daniel, can go in Hollywood, is up to you. Start today.

Are you going to confront them head-on?

Be it Cusa or Trivor, everyone's face changed drastically. A Disney is enough to be a giant, and it is not something that the current DD Pictures or Daniel can shake. What's more, there are still new lines and semi- Throughout the world, Daniel has almost no chance of winning.

Looking at the panicked team members, Daniel seemed a little calm.

What are you afraid of? I won't lose at all. Even if I can't stay in Hollywood anymore, I can still go to Silicon Valley and manage F2F for a few years. When I come back, no one can stop me.

This is where Daniel's confidence lies.

With a series of companies like Google, MB, and F2F, he is not afraid of losing at all, and at most he just endures temporary setbacks.

After Steve Jobs was pushed out of Apple, he came to Hollywood to create Pixar, but no matter how successful Pixar was, his ultimate goal was to return to Apple, and even for this reason, he could sell Pixar to Disney.

The same is true for Daniel. Everything he does in Silicon Valley is aimed at achieving success in Hollywood.

Jobs was committed to realizing his own technology dynasty.

What Daniel wants is indeed a Hollywood super era of his own.

for this. He can also lie dormant for years in another field - that's no big deal.

Therefore, Daniel's decision is not even considered to be a dead end, but at most it is a little risky. It can't be blamed on his team members for making a fuss. After all, since the glory days of Hollywood, there has never been a star like this, who is not only invincible in actors and film investment, but also holds billions of dollars in Silicon Valley wealth.

The vast majority of rules. For him, most of the restrictions can be easily broken.

No more objections!

...

When I hear someone who argues whether Captain Jack is better or Legolas is better, even breaking the law and resorting to violence, I'm not proud, really, I should be proud ...that totally says all the energy, brains and sweat I spent on these two characters paid off, people love them, whether it's an elf prince or a pirate captain, they're both deeply loved, it's a source of pride and joy for me Yes. However, when everything develops to the moment of the incident, I don't think it is something to be proud of at all.

I even doubt myself when I am in America, in the United Nations, in Kenya calling for peace. When calling for opposition to violence and war, did many people stand behind me and say that I am so hypocritical and so hypocritical. Because of the movie characters I created. Indirectly induced violence - and so worrying and deplorable youth violence.

What an ironic joke.

Since Christmas 1998, I've moved from Brooklyn to Los Angeles, from a high school graduate making a living making hot dogs every day, to a Hollywood actor with so many roles. I have always had a grateful heart, and I think God, my partners, and my fans are the creators of all these miracles. I am so lucky. So many times when I was alone, I felt terrified about it.

So I set up the Technology for the Benefit of All Beings foundation. At that time, I had to pay rent, buy clothes for events, and pay for car rental. You know, a popular idol always has some unavoidable expenses. But my salary is not that high, my business activities are not that much. Still, I decided to start the foundation because it gave me peace of mind.

I was able to help those in need, and it made me feel like I had lived up to those who helped me.

Many people wonder why you, a young actor, want to get involved in such topics as anti-war. I have never expressed my thoughts in public. Yes, the same reason, when I got more, it was shocking, as you know, I was paid more than 20 million, I even got 4000 in the follow-up contract of Bourne The basic salary of 10,000 yuan, the films I invested earned me more than 100 million yuan, my fans are all over the world, no matter where I go, there are always cheers, applause, flowers, when I am used to all this, I Just knew, I had to do more to give back to the world.

I never want all my efforts to become a joke, so I ask my fans, all young friends, refuse violence, refuse conflict, movies should be something that makes people feel happy and happy, not anything else .

...

Slap!

Robert turned off the TV.

This is Daniel's public speech at an anti-violence organization event, and many media have rebroadcasted this short speech.

He can influence, but there is no way to control all TV broadcasting companies. Daniel can attract viewers, especially the content other than entertainment news, which can stimulate everyone's viewing desire, so there are many TV stations reporting his speech this time.

Daniel is starting to fight back.

Robert rubbed his temples on both sides. Next to him was Dick of Disney Studios.

At the beginning, after Carroll published the article in the Los Angeles Times, Robert thought that Daniel would call here, even if it was to question him. At least give him a chance to maintain superficial peace. This is like boiling a frog in cold water. When Daniel wants to tear everything apart, all the forces around him will tell him that it is not right, that is not right, that is for his own interests No good either.

But Daniel didn't!

He didn't even contact John Carroll, but naturally stopped the cooperation with the Los Angeles Times. Even if Carroll couldn't bear it and called in person, it was Cusa who was lying.

What does Daniel want to do?

Robert squinted his eyes and recalled Daniel standing on a half-meter-high platform, and said the appeal of heartache with a sincere face. Many young people caught by the TV camera even had red eye circles. There is no doubt that they have agreed with Daniel's remarks very much, and they have turned their contradictions to those young people who have resorted to violence.

There was a knock at the door, and Dick got up and opened it himself.

Robert's assistant, Leeson, walked in.

Triver has indeed started to act with great force, especially on the Internet, MB officials should have also acted. Lison was sent out by him immediately to understand Daniel's supporting actions. Since he stood up and focused on If you lead to youth violence, you will certainly promote this trend.

Do they already have such a strong public relations capability?

During this year's Oscars, Trivor really made great efforts to develop Daniel's network, and Weinstein made it easier for him. Leeson glanced at Robert to see that he had no objection, and replied.

Dick pouted, It's Weinstein again, they won't do anything good for the company.

The conflict between Disney Studios headquarters and Miramax has almost become semi-public, especially within Disney, where Dick's hatred for the Weinstein brothers is almost well known. At this time, it is of course a cost-effective thing to put eye drops on the Weinstein brothers in front of them.

But seeing that Robert didn't say anything, Dick shut his mouth knowingly and started talking about something else, What is the relationship between MB and Daniel? influence, that’s why they have repeatedly given Daniel convenience. You know, even big companies like Disney and Warner don’t have this kind of treatment.”

Robert's eyes snapped open.

This is a key point. Needless to say the importance of MB, the major film companies are all establishing personal relationships with Javier.

But no one can replace Daniel's special status.

This is so weird. (To be continued.)
