Chapter 1658

In 20th Century Fox Studios in Century City.

This is June 26th.

Monday afternoon.

Simon's car stopped directly in front of the office building. As soon as he got off, a group of people greeted him.

Politely hugged Shirley Lansing, who controlled the new Fox after the merger, Simon turned to the others and said with a smile, "it doesn't need such a big battle. I'm under pressure."

Barbara Brockley, the producer of 007 series, also came forward to hug Simon and said with a smile: "because everyone is looking forward to this meeting."

He said so, and then it was Ron Mayer.

After the history of Hollywood was beyond recognition by Simon, the founder of CAA, who should have joined globegroup a few years ago, finally found his first job in a major studio last year and served as the president of Paramount Pictures controlled by sigram, Canada.

The former president of this big studio, Robert rem, who was once the CEO of danilis's new world film, retired sadly because he didn't get sigram's renewal contract.

Hollywood is like this. If you do well enough, you can control a large studio for more than ten or twenty years. However, if you can't achieve results, it's not uncommon to be replaced in a few years or even months.

After the trio, there are Lina Kane, who hasn't been seen for some time, and Mei Chen amik, the "snake and scorpion" of one of the three groups of thunderbolt dolls, Nicolas Cage, the hero of the mission impossible series, Paul Greengrass, the film director who has just completed the heavy shooting of espionage in the middle of the month, and Matt Damon, the protagonist and "root sister" Amick.

People who are familiar with Hollywood trends can easily think of the long rumored "secret agent movie universe" plan in the circle just by looking at the current lineup.

In fact, the same is true.

This afternoon is a meeting specially organized for the "spy movie universe" program.

Speaking of, Simon put forward this idea very early, but he hasn't paid much attention to it in recent years and procrastinates until now. On the one hand, his personal energy is limited after all, and, subconsciously, Simon still hopes that Hollywood can blossom instead of being occupied by too many commercial film series. On the other hand, the copyright such as the mission impossible that Simon wants to pull into the series has not been settled. Even the 007 series, the British broccoli family, which earlier controlled half of the copyright of this super IP, is quite resistant.

up to now.

Seeing the miraculous success of DC film universe series, Simon's growing power in Hollywood, and the great increase in strength after the merger of MGM and fox, it is enough to support a huge film universe plan. All parties gradually understand that joining this series must be a win-win choice.

After a brief greeting, they came to a large conference room in the office building behind them.

Simon sat down in the middle of one side of the long table. Shirley Lansing was on one side, but Maichen amik was on the other side.

Everyone just smiled at this, and there is not much to compete for. However, the positions opposite the long table are naturally turned on Ron Mayer, Barbara Brockley and Lina Kane, and some other stars and filmmakers can only sit aside.

During the time when the meeting secretary distributed the information, Meichen amik took the initiative to talk to Simon and talked about the thunderbolt doll 2 just opened last Friday: "Simon, how do you think I did in the angel sequel?"

"Very good."

Simon said, remembering the North American box office data he had seen just one weekend in the morning.

Last Friday, after four years of opposition, countless fans finally waited for the release of thunderbolt doll 2. Three Charlie's angels, Kate Beckinsale, Catherine Zeta Jones and Maichen amik, once again shine on the big screen.

With an excellent comprehensive media score of 8.3 and the same reputation in the audience, thunderbolt doll 2 made a box office of US $60.28 million in the first three days of the first weekend, and is expected to reach the level of US $90 million in the first week. Compared with the first film in 1996, the box office of the first week was only more than 72 million, and the box office of the sequel increased by 25% in the same period.

Although the final box office volume depends on the subsequent box office trend of the film, but only this beginning, the subsequent development plan of the film can be promoted without hesitation.

Thinking of these, Simon saw that the girls around him were still brewing to find words, and took the initiative to ask, "the film is still being promoted recently. Why do you have time to come?"

"I happen to record a talk show in Los Angeles, which is also used for publicity," said Meichen amik. "Kate and Catherine went to Britain. They are British. When they come back in a few days, we will fly to Asia and attend the premiere in Japan."

Simon nodded slightly.

Think of this time, thunderbolt doll 2 still failed to achieve synchronization in Japan, where the film market is still relatively closed. This can't be done. We should let Washington pay attention to it when we have time. It can't always be like this.

After the meeting secretary distributed the information, Simon stopped the dialogue with amik and signaled the beginning of the meeting.

First, Shirley Lansing introduced the specific implementation plan of the spy film universe plan that has been quietly planned for several months and approved by Simon.

After the problems in copyright and other aspects are solved, the preliminarily planned secret agent film universe will be composed of the first batch of five IPS, a 007 series, a mission impossible series, a thunderbolt doll series, a spy series, and the last one. Simon personally intervened and joined in recently. It is also an IP, speed and passion series that danilis has been hiding for a long time.

For speed and passion, Simon's assumption is that the whole plan can't be all agents, even if it's all kinds of agents of men and women inside and outside the system, but it still needs some non staff teams to adjust.

The drag racing party is perfect.

Imagine a picture. Ethan hunt, with a embarrassed face, got into a seemingly insignificant old sports car by the side of the road, pointed to the front and said to catch up with the Aston Martin. Boss Tang ran up without saying a word.

How exciting.

It can also be extended. Aston Martini is a guy named James Bond. After a fight between the two sides, um, the three parties, it was found that the flood washed the Dragon King temple. Bond and Hunter were officially dispatched. Boss Tang took a part-time job from the angel trio. Everyone was investigating a plan called "stumbling block" and finally found Jason Bourne together.

Bourne is miserable.

In short, an agent movie universe is connected in a twinkling of an eye.

by the way.

Finally, of course, we can't lack the "we are family" of boss Tang. The voice should be very magnetic and thick.

It's perfect!
