Chapter 874： Fox stuff

"The latest news obtained by this newspaper, as disclosed by people familiar with the matter, is that Relativity Entertainment is in contact with Warner Bros. to discuss the copyright issue of the "Terminator" series sequel. Gold medal producer Ronan Anderson intends to take over this series of sequels..."

In the office of the Burbank Warner Building, Kevin Tesuhara put down the "Hollywood Reporter" in his hand, looked at Charles Rowan on the opposite side, and asked: "Should we transfer the copyright of the sequel to "Terminator" ?"

Charles Rowan said: "Ronan Anderson has extraordinary vision and ability in film production. Maybe he really has ideas, but the copyright of the sequel is transferred?" He smiled: "Relativity Entertainment wants to participate in the "Terminator" series, at least Do you want to work with Warner Bros. too?"

Kevin Tesuhara said: "Robert Lee came to the company a few days ago to test our attitude, and I was temporarily rejected."

Charles Rowan thought for a while and reminded: "Don't forget the 20th Century Fox, they have the right to pay for the copyright to the sequel..."

"Yeah, Twentieth Century Fox is also troublesome." Kevin Tesuhara sometimes makes incredible decisions in film production, but the company's business operations and management capabilities are beyond doubt: "Even in the 20th century If Fox wants to take it back, he has to pay a sufficient price."

Charles Rowan said: "For this series, I think it's best to work with Ronan Anderson."

Kevin Tesohara shook his head: "Charles, don't you think that Relativity Entertainment is developing too fast? Its movie performance has already had an impact on Warner Bros., and they took 40% of the proceeds from "Batman". Too much."

Charles Rowan has a different view: "Kevin, Relativity Entertainment and Warner Bros. have no major conflicts of interest. In the short term, it is more in the interests of Warner Bros. to cooperate with Ronan Anderson. Continue to cooperate, although Relativity Entertainment will be separated. Part of the income, but Warner Bros’ income is also guaranteed."

Kevin Tesuhara said slowly and firmly: "But I want all the benefits of Batman."

Charles Luo Wenming said: "The "Dark Knight" has already begun preparations and the contract has been signed long ago. At this time, it is difficult to play Relativity Entertainment and Ronan Anderson."

"What happens after "The Dark Knight"?" Kevin Tesohala said: "Think of countermeasures, think of ways, d superhero movies want the owner of Marvel Entertainment to be the producer, isn't this a joke? "

It doesn't matter whether a joke is not a joke. The main reason is that relativity entertainment has lost too much revenue from the "Batman" movie.

Charles Rowan said: "I suggest not making big moves for the time being and waiting for the opportunity."

Kevin Tesuhara still has this patience: "Yes, the third "Batman", I hope it is Warner Bros." He turned to ask: "What did Zach Schneider do? How is it?"

"It's almost done." Charles Rowan said: "He agreed in principle to direct "Watchmen."

There are many excellent directors with Relativity Entertainment. This Zach Schneider style is really a perfect match for d comics.

In North Hollywood, Linda Hamilton walked out of the supermarket with a shopping cart, picked up a few bags, and was about to go to the parking lot. Suddenly two people came out and blocked her way.

"Hello, Linda." The woman in front of her head picked up the tag on her chest and shook: "I'm a reporter from Fox Entertainment Channel. Can I ask you some questions?"

Because of long-term smoking of cigarettes and cocaine, and suffering from bulimia and bipolar disorder, Linda Hamilton's former appearance and muscles are long gone.

Standing here is more like a middle-aged aunt.

Linda Hamilton was also very strange, tilted her head and looked at the female reporter: "Interview me?"

The female reporter did not wait for her consent, and simply asked directly: "It is reported that the famous Hollywood producer Ronan Anderson is interested in the "Terminator" series, and has also sent you an invitation?"

Linda Hamilton smiled: "It's not an invitation. Someone from Relativity Entertainment did contact me and asked if I still want to appear in the "Terminator" series."

"Do you want to return?" the female reporter asked immediately.

Linda Hamilton said without hesitation: "I refused, "Terminator 2" has finished telling all the stories, Sarah Connor is already in the past tense."

After speaking, she waved her hand to refuse the reporter to continue the interview, and left directly.

Watching Linda Hamilton go away, the female reporter took out her mobile phone and sent a message.

The photographer asked: "Linda Hamilton can only play some small roles now, why should I refuse?"

"Because she is not short of money." The female reporter clearly understood: "When the divorce, James Cameron paid Linda Hamilton US$50 million in cash, plus other fixed assets. This is the most expensive divorce in Hollywood. One of the cases."

The photographer glanced at Linda Hamilton's back: "Yes, you can enjoy it if you have money. How hard it is to shoot."

The female reporter did not answer, and urged: "Let's go, let's go to West Hollywood and interview Edward Fron."

The savior of the year, the future superstar of Hollywood, did not grow up smoothly, and was eventually destroyed by the spotlight and drugs.

It is said that during the preparation of "Terminator 3", the crew deliberately continued to let Edward Fron play John Connor, but after seeing him, no one on the crew felt that he was qualified for this role.

Ronan Anderson can really turn a rock into gold?

At the same time, in the office of Arnold Schwarzenegger, the capital of California, Arnold Schwarzenegger, who had just finished an internal small meeting, received a call from Stephanie Austin, an old friend of 20th Century Fox. .

"You said this, Relativity Entertainment did contact me." Arnold Schwarzenegger has worked with Twentieth Century Fox for many years, and unlike James Cameron, he is not much like Twentieth Century Fox. Faced with the other party’s inquiries, he did not hide the contradiction: “It’s not realistic for me to star in a movie now. Even if I want to star in a sequel, I can only act in the form of a cameo.”

At the Fox Building, Stephanie Austin hung up the phone, integrated the feedback from all quarters, left the office, went to the top floor of the building, and entered the office of Jim Prolos.

Seeing Stephanie Austin hurried over, Jim Prolos temporarily put down his work and asked: "Is there any news?"

Stephanie Austin pulled out her chair, sat across from her, and said, "Fox Media and Warner Bros. have related news. Relativity Entertainment has made contact with them. In addition, I personally called Arnold, Arnold Also received an invitation."

Jim Prolos said: "The "Terminator" series has a huge influence all over the world. Although the third part did not meet expectations, our three production companies also made a profit..."

Stephanie Austin said: "But we have licensed the rights to the sequel to Warner Bros."

Jim Prolos frowned and said, "Why did Tom Rothman authorize Warner Bros.? This will cause a lot of trouble for Twentieth Century Fox."

"At that time Tom Rothman was the CEO." Stephanie Austin was helpless: "He pushed it hard, and the project committee did not object."

Jim-Pross said: "You are responsible for this matter, and the authorization is taken back from Warner Bros. Isn't there a relevant clause in the contract?"

Stephanie-Austin nodded: "There is a recycling clause." She emphatically said: "I have actually contacted Warner Bros. Warner Bros. did not insist on letting go, but there is one condition. They require authorization fees in the year. On the basis of this, an increase of 30% will be used to make up for the potential losses of Warner Bros."

"Thirty percent?" Jim Prolos said coldly, "They want to use Ronan Anderson to rob Twentieth Century Fox!"

Stephanie Austin said: "Kevin Tesuhara, that island **** has always been like this."

Jim Pross waved his arm: "You go talk to them, but to fight for the most powerful condition for Twentieth Century Fox, all copyrights of the "Terminator" series must be returned to Twentieth Century Fox."

"I understand." Stephanie Austin said, "I will solve it as soon as possible."

Jim Pross said: "Although this is a historical issue, it should not be taken lightly. It should belong to Fox. It must not be given to other people, especially the theory of relativity."

Stephanie Austin said: "Don't worry, Ronan Anderson will not be able to succeed because of the recycling clause." She then asked: "Are we also planning to shoot a sequel?"

Jim Prolos said naturally: "Isn't the third part profitable? Why not shoot a sequel? This series is still valuable."

Stephanie Austin said, "Okay, I see."

Jim Pross waved his hand: "Do it as soon as possible."

After Stephanie Austin left, the office was quiet. Jim Prolos was not in the mood to continue other work. He came to the huge French window and looked at the Relativity Building not far away through the glass window.

The copyright to the sequel of "Terminator" Is this Ronan Anderson's counterattack against Twentieth Century Fox? But where can others get the stuff of 20th Century Fox?

There is also Warner Bros. I can’t believe the islander of Kevin Tesuhara. If it hadn’t been noticed early, Warner Bros. might have sold 20th Century Fox for profit.

People outside think that the six major Hollywood companies are unified strengths, but people in the industry like Jim Prolos never think so. The six major companies have never been less nasty because of their interests.

If there is a chance and there are gains, 20th Century Fox will beat Warner Bros. once again.

The six Hollywood companies are tied together, where is the best one?

Fox will soon make a big move in the Internet business, catching up with Relativity Entertainment.
