Chapter 1787

Sisyphus was an accident.

At the beginning, it was just Andre's derivative attempt to open up the North American market; But with the advance of time, the development of things has gradually deviated from the original track, and now has embarked on a completely different road, the prospect is full of countless unknowns, even lanli himself can not determine.

About the investment of Sisyphus pictures, about the launch of Don Quixote channel, about the establishment of hall venture capital, about the cooperation attempt between Sundance and Berlin

Everything is coming too fast and too turbulent. It seems that there is a pair of invisible giant hands behind them to push them forward. Without time to look carefully, they have already come here. It seems that they are ready to compete with the six major Hollywood film companies with great ambition.

In fact, it shouldn't be like this. Even now, lanli still doesn't plan to fight against the big six.

Although Andy, Matthew, Andre and others have expressed their willingness to participate in it, they have become the back shareholders of the film production company by using VC as the media to support the development and growth of Sisyphus film industry; But now everything is still in a very early stage of preparation, only a vague outline, all is still uncertain.

It's true that Langley didn't want to tell Paul, not to forget or because of Paul's car accident, but because he didn't have such a plan. The reasons are various and complicated - he didn't want to tie his friends to Sisyphus pictures' chariot, and he didn't want to start using friendship to open up the situation before he had a clear target, He doesn't want to share his responsibilities and dreams with his friends, just like a kind of friendship kidnapping

He knows that his idea is naive and naive. Choosing friends to make use of contacts is the basic principle of business and the core framework of society. It is difficult to open up a new world only by fighting alone, but... Langley is not a businessman. To be more precise, he is too far away from a businessman. The business and social fields are reasonable, It is not applicable to Lan Li; The original intention of Lanley to promote the development plan of Sisyphus film is not profit.

Some things are different after all.

However, Langley also has to admit that deep down in his heart, he is really refusing to ask for help, for Andre and Arthur, and for Paul and Ryan. It's a contradiction, isn't it? On the one hand, he urgently needs to cultivate students to stick to his side; On the other hand, he carefully kept his friends out of the security field, eager for company but afraid of injury, so he awkwardly alienated them in a nearby position.

He knows what's wrong with him and he's trying to change it, though it's not easy. Seeking Arthur's help and accepting Andre's advice is a small start.

And Paul in front of us.

"I think you should take the initiative to ask me, even if it's not this time, it's lanli's turn——

Langley doesn't want to be a burden to his friends because of his dream. The fundamental reason why Sisyphus film is on such a track is that he hopes to contribute to the independent film. This is his dream, not Paul's, not Ryan's and other friends's; But now Paul has said this, giving a different perspective. This is the opportunity of Langley, not Paul.

But the problem is that now Langley can't tell how much of Paul's words are true and how many are white lies woven to comfort him.

After a moment of stupefaction, Lan Li showed a smile: is this important? Whether it's true or false, he should go all out to run Sisyphus pictures, and let this small independent studio become the wing of hope and dream, flying freely under the blue sky. This is really important, and it will not disappoint the support of Paul and other friends.

"Indeed." Lanli didn't say anything more. He nodded his head in affirmation, and his eyes brightened up little by little. "However, Sisyphus's plan exceeded expectations. Even for me, it's out of control, and it needs more start-up capital than it wants. Are you sure you can afford it?"

Paul didn't think about it at all. He waved his hand, "of course. Now that we have decided to participate, we should do our best. How about your first start-up fund? " Before lenley could answer, Paul winked at meDo. "You don't know that lenley should be the top guy on the Hollywood fortune list. The number that can surprise him is absolutely not small."
