In fact, the war between Langley and Thomas has already been ignited for a long time. During the awarding season, Langley put pressure on Thomas and launched many competitions with Thomas through Warner Brothers. The signing of "Jurassic world" is the final result of the game; Although the two sides did not tear their skin, it was already irreconcilable. Now the flames of war have finally begun to come out, and they are really burning.
Now that the two sides have clearly stood on the opposite side, they must not be soft handed - because Thomas will never let go of a little negligence. Thomas is not a diesel in terms of ability or wisdom, level or skill, and they can not be regarded as opponents of the same level at all.
Andy understood the overall plan of lanli, then carefully stood at the overall height of thinking about some programs, and then began to get busy.
The first thing is to call Lydia Brooks, the PR person of Langley, and they sort out the whole story. Then Andy tells Lydia the whole story of Langley's plan. They have a close conversation and make arrangements for the follow-up development in advance. That's the end of the conversation, The two men began to prepare in two ways.
Lydia let out the wind bit by bit through her contacts, and put the inside information to TMZ in a circuitous way——
Lenley joined Jurassic world because of Bryce.
Objectively speaking, the news is a bit ambiguous. In the face of the reporter's query, lanli can fully explain that "he watched Bryce's performance and hoped to have the opportunity to perform on the same stage in the future", which can only be regarded as an indirect relationship with the scandal. People in the industry know that there are many such news released during the publicity period, which is purely a means of publicity.
But paparazzi's interpretation can evolve into another version, which is much more exciting. However, they need to collect more evidence and consolidate their theories before they can ask the parties directly.
More importantly... When did Langley arrive in Honolulu? The paparazzi even missed the news again. Langley went to Honolulu from London without any attention. This is another dereliction of duty in their work. But now it's time for paparazzi to go to Honolulu's crew to check before such a false scandal is officially announced. Maybe they can dig out more exciting news.
For paparazzi all over the world, everyone is looking forward to being the one who can crack the "secret" of Langley. Once the exclusive news is revealed, it will be a success, just like the extreme challenge of climbing Mount Everest.
Quietly, paparazzi began to move towards Honolulu, and the "Jurassic world" crew began to be lively.
Wait, is there something wrong with the development of things?
Now it's Andy and Lydia who take the initiative to release the "gossip" news and guide the paparazzi to Honolulu. What medicine is sold in this gourd? Lanli refuses to get involved in the scandal and even refuses to get involved in Bryce's marriage life. He doesn't want the focus of the cast to shift unnecessarily. But now Lydia is lighting a fire in the backyard. What's the matter?
Things gradually covered with a layer of fog, but can not see clearly.
Lydia is in charge of contacting the media, and Andy is in charge of contacting Universal Pictures - although Langley has contacted Ron Meyer, he still has to protest further from the position of an agent: this matter can not be easily settled.
Andy and Lydia quickly began to busy at the same time, Langley's hanging up work is still not over.
But this time, the phone rang for a long time and didn't get through. In desperation, Lan Li could only record a message for the phone, but the message just said, "I'm Lan Li, please call back", and the other party immediately picked up the phone.
Make complaints about the shiver all over though not cold, and it is like a threat of death. It is a chilling thing. He tried to hide the phone and he picked up the phone.
However, these words were all self talk. Before Lan Li could respond, he said directly, "what's the matter? Why did you suddenly think of calling me? " The relaxed tone pretended that the complaint had never happened. It was obvious that he deliberately let Lan Li hear it, but he didn't give Lan Li a chance to find fault. It was really... Revenge of caution.
At this end of the phone, Lan Li pauses for a moment, then laughs in silence.
Arthur hall muttered and complained, but pretended that something had not happened. So, does he want to see it or not? Or he wants to see it but pretends not.
This kind of Arthur is a little strange.
At least, Langley had never seen Arthur's face before. Just as Langley showed his different face bit by bit, Arthur was also showing his face when he got along with his friends. However, it's no surprise to lanli that such a small move is really in line with Arthur's character and style.
"You can keep busy." Lenley made a serious response.
Arthur, standing on the other end of the phone, rolled a big white eye. "Are you sure?"
Even if he didn't see it with his own eyes, Langley could describe Arthur's white eyes in his tone. The corners of his mouth rose gently. "Of course, you know. I never like to disturb people. If you are busy now, for example, you have other people around you, then it's my faux pas. "
"Better be." Arthur speechless and Tucao, he tried to make complaints about it again, but seriously, he still swallowed the words. Anyway, he lost, he still had to stop pestering. "What? Why do I have a bad feeling? I always think something bad is going to happen. You know, I just saw the black cat passing by
Black cat
"I don't think it's black cat. It's you who talked to Edith yesterday, right?" What Langley means is that Arthur and Edith always have a "foreboding feeling" when they stand together, but actually they are the source of "foreboding".
"Ha. Ha Arthur gave a dry smile. "I'll tell Edith what I said."
"Oh." Langley simply responded, meaning "see, I guess right" and "just tell Edith.".
Arthur choked directly, and his words were stuck in his throat, almost out of breath, but he could not refute - God, Langley is really a devil, "are you doing something or not? Is it just to make complaints about me? I don't remember how boring you used to be. "
This time, Langley did not continue to tease, straight to the theme, "do you know legendary film?"
"Of course. Thomas tour, who used to work with Warner Bros. at the helm, switched to universal pictures last year Arthur is no longer a layman who doesn't know anything. "Why, are we going to cooperate with them? But I remember Thomas and you didn't deal with it, did you? "
The ups and downs of the award season, Arthur's understanding is certainly not so detailed, but he has a vague impression.
"Yes, we are ready for a formal war." Lan Li didn't beat around the Bush and said frankly.
Arthur suddenly realized, "Oh", and his attention was focused, but he didn't forget to make fun of lanli in his words. It's a pity to miss such a chance. "Now you're just a gun target. If you go around, there will be enemies everywhere. It's not good for the development of the company, it's not good."
"Now you know what we used to think of you?" Randy's casual retort immediately turned Arthur's eyes and shut his mouth. Then Randy said, "I need you to investigate the source of Wall Street funds of legendary pictures, and then see if we can attract their investment."
a fundamental solution!
In fact, Langley knows that Sisyphus does not need the injection of Wall Street funds for the time being, and even consciously avoids this point; But Langley also knows that the flow and injection of Wall Street's capital is bound to be less simple, not to mention that it will take time for Sisyphus pictures to win their trust, and the years of cooperation between Wall Street and legendary pictures are not so easy to shake.
Therefore, the essential significance of the Wall Street funds that touched the legendary film industry is not to seize the opportunity, but to knock on the mountain and shake the tiger.
For one thing, it made Thomas realize that things were out of control. The success or failure of "Jurassic world" was just a work for Langley. For Thomas, it was the first work after a change of direction. Before he chose to leave Warner Bros. and come to Huanqiu film, Wall Street's financial forces could not have no opinions. This also means that, Thomas must further prove that his choice is correct, and the success of "Jurassic world" is more important to Thomas, so it is more wise for them to choose cooperation.
Second, let Wall Street realize that they have other choices besides Thomas, which can pave the way for the future. Let Sisyphus film appear in the sight of Wall Street, and then win more chips after they succeed in gaining a firm foothold, Even if Wall Street capital is added, it will still maintain the independence of the work creation, just like the simultaneous interpreting of legendary pictures in the past years.
However, this is the ideal situation in lanli's imagination. The actual operation must be much more difficult, and the uncontrollability of the results is far more than that. Deviations between planning and implementation must be taken into account.
So, Langley needs Arthur to be in charge of this matter - if it is to fight for Wall Street funds, then Andrea and even Matthew's brother Henry Dunlop will be more suitable; But no one is more suitable than Arthur if it's to knock the mountain and shake the tiger.
Arthur understood lanli's intention immediately, but he didn't answer immediately. The emotion on the tip of his tongue was a little mixed, and he couldn't find words to describe it accurately.
