Chapter 2024

Langley can understand Arthur's and Andre's consideration. Matthew's ability is beyond doubt. At the same time, he is their most trusted little partner. If Matthew can come to serve as the leader of Sisyphus film's legal department, this is undoubtedly the most perfect solution.

But Langley refused.

The reason why Matthew is Matthew is that when he stands on the court to debate, he can shine as brightly as Langley stands in front of the camera and on the stage. They all have their own dreams and support each other in different ways.

Lanli knew that as long as he spoke, Matthew would nod his head; But he couldn't and didn't want to.

"I still like Matthew on the court." In the face of Arthur's eyes that still refused to give up, Langley drew an end with the simplest sentence.

Arthur raised his hands sullenly, then leaned his shoulders against the back of the chair. "I'm your brother, OK? Why don't you support my dream? "

"Aren't you realizing your dream now? Or am I misunderstood? Well, I'll tell Andre to let him set you free. " Langley said lightly, and then you can see that Arthur's expression is a little bit stiff, completely without the noble's reserve and introverted, which makes Langley gently shake his head, "ALF and you have been in London for so many years, but still have not collapsed, I think she is very bitter."

Arthur said he received 100000 critical hits.

Edith, who was watching the play, had a flash of inspiration in her mind and quickly grasped, "have you all forgotten Charles domer? Do you remember which direction of law Charles focused on? "

Charles domer, Eaton domer's brother, is the second largest in the domer family and also a lawyer. At the beginning, Matthew came to New York to accept Charles's invitation and set up a law firm here. Both of them served as partners and gradually developed their own business.

"Charles? Are you sure? " Arthur, the know it all, immediately showed a meaningful expression, "if you let Charles go to the party, then he is definitely a good hand, but if you let Charles go to court, it's better to let him go to the guillotine."

"We don't need Charles to go to court, we need Charles to sit in the office and deal with the papers - and so on, we don't need Charles to deal with the papers, we need Charles's ability, he can set up a law firm in New York, and he has developed to the present, which shows his ability, right? In the circle of lawyers, his name should be more useful than you or Andre. " Langley was acutely aware of the key.

Arthur has always regarded Charles as his "kindred" -- party animal, and so has Andre, so they never considered Charles's professional ability, but now they think that maybe Charles is more suitable than Matthew.

"Even if it's not Charles, I know that Matthew knows a group of lawyers in London, and he can give some candidates. You can discuss with Andre and ask Charles for his opinions. I know that Charles is not very reliable, but you and Charles should have their own language system, and you can identify the true and false." He added.

"Ouch!" Arthur expressed his protest with a cry of pain, but he did not continue to murmur. He nodded to show his understanding. "In addition, about Don Quixote channel, the plan book and platform framework blueprint have been published, but we really don't have many concepts at present. You'd better have a look, give some opinions and ideas, and let the engineers see if it can be realized, Next, a marketing department will be set up to conduct preliminary research and further improve and adjust the design blueprint of the platform. "

Blue Li nodded in agreement.

"In terms of plans and blueprints, do you directly send them to your entity or send them by email..." Arthur didn't quite understand these details. He usually handed them to his secretary for handling. "By the way, my secretary said that every time he sent you an email, you didn't return it. As a result, our work here couldn't be carried out, and I couldn't find Nathan every time, could I? God, I get in touch with you through Nathan. It's so sad. "

"First of all, it was your secretary who contacted Nathan, not you." Lanli didn't pay attention to Arthur's "grievance" at all. "Secondly, if it's an urgent or important email, you can send it to Matthew directly. Matthew is sorting out all my emails. The plan and blueprint, you send to Matthew, he will tell me the first time

"Wait, what about Matthew's own work?" Edith can't keep up with the speed.

Lanli shrugged. "He has a habit of cleaning. I'm just doing him a little favor. What's more, there are not many things in my email. Now all the job offers are sent to Andy and Roy. If I send personal email, it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter if I don't deal with it; What's really important, you all come to me directly, don't you? It's like this. "

"... did Matthew know you were so brazen?" Arthur asked in silence.

"Yes." But Lan Li's answer was very calm.

Arthur surrendered. "OK, OK, I see. As for Don Quixote channel, we have asked the engineers and the production team. The fastest progress will have to wait until the beginning of next year. It is estimated that there will be no way to complete the first edition within this year; After that, we need to carry out several rounds of internal test modification. The most ideal situation is that it will be officially launched in January 2016. If there is an unexpected situation, then the time will be pushed back. "

Lan Li nodded, "this is very good. It fully meets our needs. In the next 18 months, we can start looking for more copyright cooperation. At the same time, we can shoot more original works. When the channel goes online, we just need to list a resource library to attract the audience's subscription and original works, This is the core of our competition with other online streaming media. "

"Well, what about the movies that are made? We shot and produced it, but there was no platform to play it. Let's not talk about the protest and dissatisfaction of the production team, but what about ourselves? If there is no way to recover the funds, there will be no way for the follow-up shooting and production to continue. Our funds are not enough to make up for this black hole. Isn't that a problem? " Arthur raised another concern.

Obviously, Andre doesn't have time to talk with Arthur about this part. After all, the work of Sisyphus pictures and Don Quixote channel in the initial stage is too large and complicated. Everyone spins like a top. He wants to have a separation, but he is still busy.

This is always the case in the entrepreneurial phase.

"Andre and I have discussed this issue. You can discuss the specific situation with him. In short, we are ready to launch more cooperation with Sony, but whether we need to establish our own distribution channel is still under discussion." The whole process is complicated, and Langley gives the answer in the most concise way. Later, Arthur and Andre will discuss it in detail.

Arthur immediately understood, "do you mean that the film we are making will still be released in theaters?"

"Yes." Lan Li nodded in affirmation.

Arthur let out a little breath. "That would be great." As long as it is released, the box office and surrounding revenue can become the follow-up start-up funds to ensure that Sisyphus film can continue to operate and make more profits; Otherwise, hall venture capital will not be able to make profits within 18 months, which is a disaster.

"There are also two TV series projects..." Arthur said again, and lanli immediately remembered the projects he had chosen, "Strange Tales" and "running in the night of sin." Arthur nodded in affirmation. "Now the script of" running in the night of sin "has been finished, and the script of" Strange Tales "is near the end stage, But now we are starting to produce two TV series at the same time, which one do you suggest to put into production first

In fact, the real question is: which work is more likely to succeed? If Sisyphus film's capital chain breaks and it is unable to produce another work in a short time, the first work to be produced will either sell the copyright or be used for turning over. No matter which one is, it must be excellent enough.

There's no way. Now some of their stalls are too big. They have multiple lines going forward, all-round blooming and flourishing. They seem to be full of flowers, but in fact they are in danger. A little negligence may lead to a full collapse. The feeling of treading on thin ice is also a difficult problem that must be faced in the entrepreneurial stage.

But Langley didn't understand the deep meaning of Arthur's words - he really lacked the strength to run the company, "which work is the first to complete the casting, which one is the first to shoot."

"I mean, if we need to focus on forcing, which one should we choose?" Arthur had to be more straightforward.

Lan Li didn't fully understand it, but he still had a vague concept of "running in the night of sin." He gave a clear answer: "the main actors of strange things are all children. It's not easy to choose children's actors who are spiritual and suitable for the role; In contrast, "crime night run" requires experienced actors with certain skills, such as Steven zerian and Richard Presley. They know many familiar faces in the industry, and the casting work will go very smoothly. "

Arthur savored it carefully, and then he said, "I see. After returning to Los Angeles, we'll hold a meeting. If necessary, I'll... I'll invite Matthew to browse the minutes of the meeting." With a resentful look, he expressed his strong dissatisfaction with lanli: they were so busy in Los Angeles that lanli didn't even bother to read the minutes of the meeting.

"Do you believe it? Matthew might just hang up. " But Lan Li had no sympathy at all, and laughed happily.

Arthur has black lines all over his head.

Looking at Arthur's melancholy face, Langley chuckled. "I'll tell Matthew. However, I feel that the premise framework has been worked out and my work is over. The next stage belongs to you, so I don't want to compete with you for the focus of attention. What do you say? "
