Chapter 275

Mark was thinking about Scarlett's saying, "it's harder to be a good person than a bad person." Megan came over again and said, "today is everyone's rest day. I don't want to say this, but it's better to know something early. David's role may not be guaranteed."

Mark said, "what?" David's role must be 007, not Dr. shepherd. Leiris regarded him as a pillar.

Megan said: "Barbara Brockley is now clearly opposed to David playing James Bond. She thinks David's temperament is not elegant enough and his characteristics are not prominent enough. She is not a suitable candidate."

Mark's face suddenly darkened and said, "can this fat be left to outsiders?"

Megan said, "of course I support David, but the other side is firm."

Although the opening of every 007 film is marked with the factory logo of MGM Lianmei film company, and 007 film is also regarded as the lifeblood of MGM. MGM has depended on 007 for more than ten years, in fact, all 007 films belong to the Brockley family and belong to their family operated small production company eon production company.

At the beginning, I'm afraid Ian Fleming himself didn't realize how much impact James Bond could bring to the 20th century pop culture. Albert Brockley saw the huge market potential hidden in 007 novels with the shrewdness of Italians. In 1960, Brockley, who was over half a hundred, married three times and just went bankrupt, said to his wife: "I want to start over. Let's adapt Ian Fleming's novel." a legend began.

In the early 1960s, the copyright agents of 007's novels, broke Kerry and Harry Salzman, who had nothing, found Lianmei company and asked for a meager $1 million investment to shoot Dr. Nuo , in order to save money, he declined Gary grant and boldly chose Scotsman Sean Connery to play bond. They worked together for nine years and made eight successful 007 films. Then Harry Salzman sold his stake in the company, and Brockley became the unique boss behind bond, which made him one of the most successful producers in Hollywood in the last century Ten years after his death, eon company continued to be controlled by his stepson and daughter, continuing the myth of 007.

Barbara Brockley, with brown hair and soft appearance, spent her childhood in 007 locations around the world. She is the only daughter of old Brockley, mixed with her father's iron will and her mother's sensitivity.

Old Brockley had long seen that this daughter could become the next leader of 007 empire. In fact, he had no good choice. Facts proved that she did not disappoint her father. Barbara's first 007 film, golden eye in 1996, achieved unprecedented success. She adopted the suggestion to put "m" Changing to women, this rather bold move has given this role unprecedented depth. In golden eye, Judy Dench said to 007: "I think you are a male chauvinist, female hating dinosaur, a relic of the Cold War era."

Since the date when the first bond Sean Connery was tired of 007 films and announced his retirement, the candidate of each bond has become the most concerned topic of film fans all over the world. However, it is no doubt that the members of the Brockley family can only have the final decision. Old Brock is the most successful bond Sean Connery who has discovered the most successful bond Sean Connery and elected the most failed bond George rahinby.

007 series films are the lifeblood of MGM and also the brokley family of EON company. They rely on this film to eat all over the world. Eon has the production right, MGM has the distribution right, MGM raises funds, eon is responsible for the production, and the outside world does not know how to distribute the interests of both sides, but eon will certainly take a considerable part of the revenue, including box office, DVD, TV on demand and the surrounding areas Every 007 movie is a hit, but MGM doesn't earn as much as expected. It just makes hard money. It's far less dominant than Warner in Harry Potter.

Brockley took a fancy to Brosnan, but his offer frightened everyone. Brockley suggested the global draft, but mark and Megan insisted on David's position. She was dissatisfied and showed her muscles.

Now everyone knows that MGM is in a difficult time and needs a 007 film to boost her morale, so she took the opportunity to threaten her.

007 film is the lifeblood of MGM and a source of steady income, but mark really doesn't pay much attention to it. First, he divided one-third of the income. They can only earn hard money. I have transformers With marvel in hand, there are some big selling IP, all copyright and intellectual property rights in hand, and each one makes a lot. Like 007 films, making a little money is also affected by so much bird spirit.

Mark said to Megan, "do you believe me? I can create a super IP no less than 007 series."

Megan said, "of course! So far, you're right."

Mark said: "tell Brockley of EON that there is only one candidate for 007, otherwise I won't shoot. I can wait."

Megan said with a smile, "I like dealing with tough people. I'll tell Brockley every word, but what about MGM?"

Mark said, "prepare for twilight?"

Twilight is Mark's starting work. With these two novels, it has attracted countless fans for him, but the third one has not been released yet. Bezos of Amazon and Peter of Langdon book house are anxious to death, but who can force mark? There have long been rumors of putting twilight on the big screen, but mark didn't speak. The rumors can only be rumors.

Now mark finally nodded. It has sold more than 50 million copies worldwide and has a large number of fans. Countless film companies drool on it. Even Warner is no exception. He has made his idea several times. Hollywood dramatized it as "little Harry Potter". Now they should be satisfied to hand over this killer to MGM.

Megan is willing to cooperate with quick, tough and decisive people. Blindly compromising is not her dish.

This can be understood as the game between the production company and the distribution company. As the signing partners, they can't abandon each other or seek cooperation with a third party. It's also like a marriage that can't be divorced and derailed. In any case, they must live and fight within the inherent framework. It depends on who is soft first and who can't stand it first.

As paramount's biological son, Liang Tang beat Paramount's boss leishidong angrily on the table because of the quarrel between the professional secret service and paramount and because he had the production right of the professional secret service.

For example, mm and Warner jointly own the copyright of hangover and chainsaw thriller. Warner tries to reach inside and arrange his own people to obtain more benefits. However, mark has long made arrangements and had a contract. Mm is fully responsible for the production and Warner is responsible for the distribution. For example, MM also has part of the distribution right of hangover, which means more oil and water.

Now for the 21 episode 007, the rights and interests of both sides have long been agreed, and there are not many places to move, and the candidate for the leading actor James Bond has become the biggest fat meat. Except for those 20 million gentlemen and veteran movie stars, who is not excited? It is due to the soaring pay for a series of popular films. In the past, Brosnan and Maguire were too expensive to be hired by big companies In the future, for the sixth generation 007 and iron man, the pay for several films has risen to 100 million. Please don't move.

A sexual man like Captain Jack is in urgent need of "Pirates of the Caribbean" to regain popularity if he doesn't rush for six times. Disney wants him to return, but he's afraid he'll have to ask a price of 100 million, so it's necessary to abandon the pit when the sequel movie stars in a certain number of episodes.

Mark and Megan both want to bring out their own superstar. David originally had iron man It's only a matter of time before he can protect himself. However, this role is always Downey's. David's car accident and Downey's appearance give mark the illusion that his destiny is hard to change, but he doesn't want to admit defeat. He wants to fight. He is determined to win the role of 007. He can't sit back and let others eat such a big piece of fat. Fortunately, he is not an ordinary person and won't power 007 Film and television is a life-saving straw. It's not pleasant to say, "wedding pride" earns much more than it, because he is not in a hurry and can sit on the Diaoyutai in the game with the production company.

These are all troubles. It's disappointing to say at the party, but they have to. Fortunately, as long as they decide the strategy, egger will implement the specific things in place. For mark, egger is convinced. Although he is young, he has the capital of a hero. He can't be 23 years old. He owns two big companies. As long as he digests what he eats, he is another one Redstone and Murdoch, mark completed the height they reached in their twenties and sixties.

Mm swallowed Columbia Pictures and MGM pictures. Egger thought it was Mark's credit. If there was no collusion between mark and Martin, he didn't believe it. Under the distribution of intentional people, the life-long friendship between mark and Martin was exposed. Many people were willing to believe that mark bribed Martin to pit the money of the foundation. It is said that some shareholders secretly launched an investigation.

However, egger doesn't care about this. For a fait accompli, what he eats will only be pulled out and will never spit out. Their own family is one of the five major law firms in the country. They don't have to be afraid of a lawsuit to the Supreme Court of liana.

And egger also knows David's position in Mark's mind. This business plays the eyeball economy. If you don't hold a superstar out, who will take you as one thing, who will recognize your strength, and what the cohesion of the brokerage company can be said. Therefore, for 007, he also believes that MM is determined to win, either David or heath, and must not be cheap to outsiders. He is very happy with mark and may I understand that.

Therefore, egger immediately conveyed MM's will to eon, and their opinions remained unchanged.

Brockley, the gold medal female producer, is also a tough person. She said: "it's a pity that Casino Royale can't start shooting."
