"As long as the source of funds is legal," Murphy said to Carla Firth, "I don't care who fox raised money from in the 20th century."
Strictly speaking, he doesn't have the right to intervene, as long as it's not money laundering, whether it's eastern or western investment, he doesn't care.
Carla Firth laughed and said in detail, "the company chose to accept Chinese investment mainly because the film can be shown in the cinema there."
Murphy nodded her head gently, and Carla Firth continued, "originally, the company was going to send it to the relevant department there for review according to the normal procedure when the time was almost the same, but there was news coming over there that your name was on an extremely sensitive list, so it was difficult to pass the political review."
Gail gado sighed. "It's all my fault. I was too impulsive last time."
"It's none of your business." Murphy shook her hand. "There's something wrong with the scale and values of my film."
"Well..." Kara Firth agrees with Murphy's statement, "your last incident was just a inducement. For the auditing department over there, Murphy's film is too politically incorrect."
She thought about it for a moment, and then said, "relatively speaking, the theme of this time is still more inclined to justice, and ultimately defeat evil. If there is a strong partner there to help public relations, there is still a great chance to pass the audit."
It's true that as long as the investor is strong, it's not difficult for this film to pass the audit. But in short, in CAA's data, under the trend of merger and acquisition, vertical integration, channel diversification and non box office revenue, Wanda cinema has the advantages of first mover, brand and capital operation, and is the most likely industry integrator on the other side of the Pacific.
This is undoubtedly a very good and worthwhile film industry company.
However, the problem is that the other party may not accept his investment.
Murphy is very clear that this kind of thing can not be forced, the other party is willing to accept the best investment, not willing to accept him, there is no loss.
At present, Wanda's people are still talking with 20th Century Fox about investing in cooperative films, and bill rosis has also made a little contact with each other, but their attitude is not clear. It is estimated that this matter will spread to the headquarters on the other side of the Pacific Ocean, and it will be decided by the real masters.
On the other hand, Murphy is still revising the script, and negotiating with other main leaders of the team about the production plan. Some chores are completely left to Gail gado. After several years of training, Gail gado's ability and relevant experience have improved significantly.
By the end of June, 20th century fox had passed the project audit and decided to invest in the production of Murphy's new film. The new film is temporarily named "Black New York", and the production cost is estimated to be 150 million US dollars. 20th century fox will solve the problem of capital source through pre-sale and financing channels, among which Wanda pictures, which is from the other side of Pacific Film, will make a new investment He is one of the investors.
This also means that Wanda pictures will be responsible for the public relations work of the film's official release in the cinema market across the Pacific.
Frankly speaking, Murphy's films are not very popular on the other side of the Pacific Ocean. Coupled with the man-made obstacles caused by the conflict in the last Sino US film forum, it is not easy to pass the audit. This is also the main reason why Fox also introduced Wanda film investment in the 20th century.
Just like Murphy, as long as it's good for him, Hollywood will not consider whether the capital comes from the East.
To determine the investment of the new project, Bill rosis has also started formal contact with Wanda. However, the feedback is not optimistic. The other party does not seem to be short of funds and is not very interested in Murphy's intention to invest.
However, a leading Hollywood director expressed his intention of cooperation, which made them more or less moved. The two sides could only talk slowly.
Also in this month, Jordan Belfort lawsuit Murphy case was officially adjudicated. Supported by a lot of strong evidence, the court formally adjudicated that Jordan Belfort lost the lawsuit and assumed huge litigation costs, which made Jordan Belfort who wanted to settle out of court pay a huge brokerage price.
And that's not the end. Murphy, in turn, sued Jordan Belfort for defamation. With his present wealth and status, he would drag Jordan Belfort to exhaustion.
It's not just for Jordan Belfort, but for the future. Murphy knows very well that the harder he does now, the less trouble he will have in the future.
The litigation is in the charge of lawyers, and Murphy's more energy is still on the preparation of new projects. With the establishment of a new film temporarily named "Black New York", his production team quickly gathered and announced a series of role auditions for the first time. (to be continued). )
