MTL - Best Actor-v3 Chapter 150 chance to intervene
There is no need to say more about the premiere of "Transformers", at least in one, Michael Bay is still in place, mastering the rhythm very well, that is, after the beginning of the base war , Transformers appeared a little later. But it doesn't matter, just the deformed sound of "Qizika Kazi" at the beginning is enough to ignite the enthusiasm of many people, and when Optimus Prime appeared on the screen, there were even more applause and whistles in the auditorium.
Ordinary people with movie tickets. Many people here are fans of Transformers, so seeing the childhood dream on the screen into a live-action movie, it is impossible not to be excited.
The power of rejuvenation is huge. The box office of 70 million in the first week and weekend made "Transformers" sit at the top of the North American box office list - July 3rd is Tuesday, so the weekend is 6 From Sunday to the 8th, the weekend box office is only calculated for these three days, so it is 70 million, and if the total box office is calculated, it is 150 million. This also means to announce that another blockbuster series of movies has been born, whether Universal, DreamWorks, or Samsara are all very excited.
And the two protagonists, Shia LaBeouf and Camilla Belle, are also popular across the United States, and as the film is released worldwide, it will inevitably become popular all over the world .
Michael Bay still has a good hand after all, at least in terms of composition and tone, he is by no means worse than anyone else. As a director who shoots MVs, he, like Fincher, knows how to show the best picture. Del attracts the audience. The heroine lifts off the hood of Bumblebee and shows off her slender and **** waist to the fullest. The scene where the hot body is unobstructed will undoubtedly make the male audience whistle in their hearts.
What's more, it's Camilla who plays this role now. She used to be basically a pure image, but she has obviously become sexy. The impact formed by the comparison is definitely not small. In addition, she is a system of introversion, and her Latin blood also gives her a **** capital. The contradictory feeling of pure and **** makes her even more attractive.
So, as soon as the movie was released, she quickly became the dream goddess of countless fans, and her popularity was even greater than Shia LaBeouf.
Of course, no one would have thought that the goddess of their dreams is beautiful and **** in public, but in private in front of a playboy, she is dissolute and likes to pester him for bananas and milk anytime, anywhere eat.
Even with Haydn's spoiler, Sean didn't escape at the premiere, and was dragged to the bathroom by Camilla midway through the screening, and told her to eat enough bananas and milk - otherwise , she might have to take out his pants in public in the seat.
.
I said before that under Sean's favor, they are basically lawless in some aspects now, watching and playing in the cinema, or in the bathroom, when there are people outside It's not that this kind of thing - and the two of them are together - has not been done, even several times, because ... it is very exciting.
Of course, Camilla and Haydn are more or less restrained, and know when they can do it and when they can't, so no one has found out until now, just...
"It's been a long time, who knows if I'll overplay it." Sean muttered.
"Sorry, what are you talking about?" Vladimir, who just stopped to take a sip, asked immediately.
"It's nothing, you can continue." Sean came back to his senses and asked: "Regarding the DVD distribution rights of "Transformers", there should be no one else at Universal. Bar?"
"How come," Vladimir laughed, "It might be a little troublesome if someone raises objections before the movie is released, but now, who will throw out the things they get , Although there are several shareholders in Samsara who like to point fingers, they are never ambiguous in safeguarding their interests. Moreover, we are not a small company three years ago. Among the second-tier production companies, we must be in the top three without a problem. "
This is Vladimir's office, after the release of "Transformers" and its great success, he called Sean and hoped that he could come and talk. Although he has been talking about "Transformers" since we met, Sean clearly feels that he must have other purposes.
So, after talking for a few more minutes, Sean simply asked bluntly: "Okay, Todd, just tell me what you really want to say."
Vladimir was somewhat embarrassed, but he also knew that Sean was like this, and immediately laughed: "Yes, I have another thing I want to discuss with you, or Get your support."
"Oh? What is it?" Sean was suddenly interested.
Although his shares have been reduced with the development of the company, he is still a major shareholder after all, and he has not made any serious loss-making decisions in the position of chairman. Kimir cooperates, so the power is still quite large.
In general, Sean supports all of Vladimir's decisions, which is already the default thing in the company, but Vladimir still needs his personal statement, so it must be a big deal.
"Do you know Chris McLeodandre?" Vladimir asked first.
"Chris...Merredandre?" Sean repeated the name in retrospect, then shook his head, "No, I don't know."
"And what about Blue Sky Studio?" Vladimir asked again.
"I know this, because "Ice Age" became famous in one fell swoop, and divided the animation market with Pixar and DreamWorks Animation Studio," Sean nodded, "This McLeadan Derry and Blue Sky Does the studio have anything to do with it?"
"First of all, he and the founder of Blue Sky Studios, Chris Wedge, both spent time in Disney's animation department." Vladimir explained, "You know , The animation industry in Hollywood is more or less related to Disney.”
Indeed, Disney started with animation, and before the transformation in the 1980s, it also relied on animation to conquer the world. It really affected a generation. Even Warner has its own popular animation characters. In terms of influence, it is still not as good.
So, those studios that have made achievements in animation today, Pixar, DreamWorks and Blue Sky, the founders are basically from Disney.
Sean nodded, indicating that he understood, and then made a gesture of please continue.
"After they left Disney, Wedge started Blue Sky Studios in the late '80s, and McLeodandrei went to Fox. Under the auspices, Fox acquired Blue Sky Studio and invested in "Ice Age", and McLeodandrei also served as the producer of this animation and its sequel." Vladimir said simply but clearly.
"What's going on now?" Sean asked immediately, and joked in a joking tone: "Don't tell me, we still have a chance to get our hands on Blue Sky Studio."
"Of course not," Vladimir smiled, "but we may enter the animation market - just three weeks ago, McLeodandrei announced his resignation at Fox because of disagreements. job."
"He wants to be independent and set up his own studio?" Sean grasped the core of the problem almost instantly.
"That's right!" Vladimir showed admiration, "Merredandre hopes to use the least money to produce the best results, in other words, he is very good at controlling costs, The first film of "Ice Age" only had an investment of 59 million, but it received nearly 400 million at the box office worldwide."
"So you want to invest in his animation studio?" Sean's eyes brightened.
Be aware that animation production is quite troublesome, not only the cycle is long, but also the investment is quite large. Take Pixar's signature work "Toy Story" as an example, because the first one was more than ten years ago, Sean is not very clear, but at least it cost 30 to 40 million.
The investment of "Toy Story 2" after that has reached 9,000 plays, while the slightly earlier "Bug Squad" has 120 million, and the subsequent "Monster Electric Company" also reached 115 million , the acclaimed "Finding Nemo" in 2003 only cost 90 million.
As for the animation studio of DreamWorks, they spent 70 million on the production of the 2D animation "Prince of Egypt". All in all, if you want to do animation, you must be willing to invest and endure the long time The production cycle of , and the color does not change after the loss.
Therefore, even if there are second-tier production companies involved in animation, they are all TV 2D animations, not 3D movie animations, and profits can only drive capital investment when they are large enough. What's more, the current animation film market has been monopolized by the three giants. In addition to financial patience, luck is also very important.
. No wonder Vladimir would approach Sean to make a statement, take a stake in the other party's studio, and make animations. This will be a big investment that will be related to a few years later.
Maybe he had this plan after knowing that McLeodandre resigned, but "Transformers" had not been released at that time, and the expenditure in the past two years was a bit large, and he had not yet received it. In return, it was delayed until today to find Sean to discuss it.
"I don't have any opinion." Sean said immediately.
But Vladimir apparently had something to say: "But we have to bring other people in."
"Oh? Why?" Sean didn't understand.
"Because our distribution capabilities are still a bit lacking." Vladimir said, "There is almost no progress in overseas distribution. Although North America is OK, but animation movies want to make money, at least To be able to pull 3,000 theaters at a time."
