Chapter 111: wish you success

In just ten minutes, Daniel Malik's impression of Ronan has changed drastically: this man is a profiteer!
Reminiscent of the various attacks that I have suffered recently, I suddenly felt an inexplicable fear.
"Mr. Anderson." Daniel Malik asked: "Which media events were you specially arranged?"
Ronan looked at Daniel Malik with a strange look, and said: "When we negotiated, there were regulations for media activities. I was fulfilling the contract."
Daniel Malik thought of the terms of the contract, and his fear grew: Did Ronan Anderson planned everything when he bought this film? That's too scary.
Ronan said again: "My company and I abide by the spirit of the contract, and every clause in the contract is fulfilled seriously."
Daniel Malik wanted to reverse this unfavorable situation and said: "I want to call a press conference, I want to expose everything!"
Ronan smiled, but did not answer.
Daniel Malik can only talk about this. In the past few days, he argued in front of the media more than once, but he was unable to change the direction of public opinion.
The black pot was thrown down, and then it was held on the head by the media and fans.
It was the talk show and admitted in front of the media that the whole plan came from me.
"Let's stop here today." Ronan didn't want to entangle with Daniel Malik, and politely saw off the guests: "I have a meeting next."
Daniel Malik hasn't given up his heart yet, and he has stabilized his mind and said: "I have a new film plan. I originally wanted to cooperate with your company, but Mr. Anderson's attitude makes me..."
Ronan directly raised his hand to interrupt him: "You can go to other partners as much as possible."
"I..." Daniel Malik didn't know what to say.
I just had a film with a North American box office of over 100 million, so you refused? Isn't Hollywood chasing success?
Ronan remembered something, opened the drawer and took out a videotape, and pushed it to Daniel Malik: "This is your videotape. Take it back."
Daniel Malik looked down at the video tape, then looked up at Ronan, making sure Ronan really didn't have any interest in what he said.
Picking up the videotape, Daniel Malik took a deep look at Ronan: "Someone in Hollywood will work with me!"
Ronan smiled: "I wish you success in your new film."
Seeing a sincere smile, Daniel Malik felt a sense of powerlessness and turned and walked out of the office.
Ronan squeezed his chin: It looks like I look like a villain. Daniel Malik is the male protagonist waiting for a counterattack. It's a pity that he hasn't read online novels on the other side of the Pacific. Hexi is more suitable.
It's not appropriate to bully the young and poor. After all, they are in their thirties.
Ronan certainly knew that with the success of "Blair the Witch", Daniel Malik could easily find a partner company.
Even if Daniel Malik doesn't have to look for it, there will be a film company that will come to the door.
Chasing success is a rule in Hollywood that will never change.
Ronan did not consider Daniel Malik again, and the two sides would not cooperate in the future. He took the job at hand seriously, and then went to Warner Studios to visit the two crews of "Death is Here" and "Ace Agent". The shooting has been completed and the post-production stage has been completed.
During the period, Ronan received a long-distance call from Europe, and Carmen Case would come to Los Angeles some time later to participate in an event for Dior in Los Angeles and make an appointment to meet him.
Just this year, Carmen-Cass won the endorsement of Dior's new series of perfumes, becoming the first spokesperson of this perfume.
Ronan also knows this perfume, because the previous life Charlize Theron has endorsed this perfume for more than ten years, and every advertisement for South African diamonds is gorgeous and beautiful.
Can get Dior's endorsement, Carmen-Case will undoubtedly step into the ranks of supermodels.
Just as actors and stars are two completely different beings, models and supermodels are also very different.
In several meetings in Los Angeles last year, Carmen Case left a very good impression on Ronan, but as a traditional model, Carmen Case’s career center is undoubtedly in Europe.
Ronan didn't think much about this matter, and he didn't put his thoughts on it at this stage.
After a round of the two crews, Ronan found George and asked him to contact Robert Ludren again to see if he could fix the copyright issues of the two books "Bourne's Hegemony" and "Bourne's Announcement".
Robert Lu Delun has been in poor health and refused to discuss copyright with others. This is the most troublesome issue.
Ronan was not afraid that they would charge high prices, but he refused to talk about it, making it difficult.
"Blair the Witch" was a great success. When the box office is divided into accounts, the funds in hand will be much more generous. I must win the film and television rights of the two books as soon as possible.
Otherwise, waiting for "Bourne's Identity" to be discussed later, it will pay a higher price.
George Clint has always been in contact with Robert Ludren’s lawyers and publishers. Perhaps he is very stubborn when he is old. Robert Ludren simply ignores outside copyright information.
Maybe you have to wait for Robert Lu Delun to hang up and talk with his copyright client.
…………
Daniel Malik returned to the hotel and dealt with the inquiries of several people from the crew. After entering the room, he felt exhausted physically and mentally. His movies were sold for so much money, but he couldn't share them.
The phone rang suddenly, and he said a few words after connecting, and his tired eyes suddenly glowed with brilliance.
The person who called was an executive from DreamWorks, and the other party wanted to ask him to talk.
Daniel Malick did not hesitate, he made an appointment to meet in the hotel lobby, changed his suit, and adjusted his hair before leaving the appointment.
In the hotel lobby, he met Susan Arnold, the producer of DreamWorks.
"Hello, Director Malik." Susan Arnold shook hands with Daniel Malik: "Congratulations on the sale of your film."
Hearing this, Daniel Malick's face sank, and soon returned to normal, saying, "Thank you."
After Susan Arnold's polite sentence, she quickly turned to the topic: "Blair the Witch" was released and ended successfully. I wonder if Director Melick has a new filming plan?"
Daniel Malick heard it immediately, DreamWorks is interested in him!
"I plan to make another horror movie." Although Daniel Malik was frustrated by Ronan, the success of "Blair the Witch" gave him great confidence: "There is already a script framework."
Films of the same type are easier to replicate successfully. Susan Arnold knew this well and asked: "Do you have a partner? If not, DreamWorks can help you."
Daniel Malik said: "I don't have a partner."
Susan Arnold is a bit strange: "The Embassy Pictures did not continue to cooperate with you?"
Most film companies tend to maintain long-term cooperation with successful directors. I originally thought that Daniel Malik would continue to cooperate with Embassy Pictures, and it would take a little effort to dig into the walls.
Unexpectedly, it turned out to be such a situation.
"I don't want to cooperate with them anymore." Daniel Malik did not hide: "The head of Embassy Pictures Ronan Anderson is too domineering."
The success of "Blair the Witch" has brought Daniel Malick into the sight of many Hollywood companies, and no one really pays attention to negative media reports. Just like those successful directors, DreamWorks is the first to continue to expand the market. An olive branch stretched out.
Susan Arnold is responsible for the horror and thriller film business at DreamWorks. She has just completed "Ghost Invasion" and is ready to produce a new project.
At present, she has roughly two plans. One is to take a fancy to a Japanese horror film and prepare to win the copyright remake; the other is the director of "Blair the Witch", Daniel Melick.
Because "Ghost Invasion" and "Blair Witch" have had a head-to-head confrontation on the market, Susan Arnold carefully studied "Blair Witch". The new shooting method and promotion and marketing methods are extraordinary. They operate in the same mode. Copy the success of "Blair the Witch".
Susan-Arnold heard that Daniel Malik had a conflict with Embassy Pictures~EbookFREE.me~ To confirm this, she asked: "If you can ask, between you and Embassy Pictures..."
DreamWorks’ name is bluff, at least much stronger than Ronan’s company.
Daniel Malik wanted to grab the opponent's hand, and if he was bored, he needed to find someone to talk to him. He simply said: "Blair the Witch sold more than $100 million at the box office, Ronan Anderson only gave me 80,000 U.S. dollars in copyright fees and 50,000 U.S. dollars in box office bonuses, but exclusive use of the remaining income!"
Susan-Arnold understood immediately, this is a typical uneven distribution of spoils.
Can’t let the director go back and cooperate with Embassy Pictures, Susan Arnold immediately had an idea, and said:
Find a professional lawyer to sue Ronan Anderson and Embassy Pictures, and drag the lawsuit down. Over time, most companies in Hollywood will choose to settle out of court."
"A good way." Daniel Malik seemed to have found the backbone: "Can you introduce me to a professional lawyer?"
Susan Arnold smiled nicely: "No problem, DreamWorks will try to help our partners."
Daniel Malik nodded heavily: "Thank you."
"You're welcome." Susan Arnold said the prerequisites calmly: "Director Melnick, now that you have a new film plan, can you finish the script as soon as possible? So that I can also promote your project in DreamWorks. "
She paused briefly and added: "Success can make Ronan Anderson regret his stinginess!"
There was fire in his heart, and Ronan was firmly suppressed by Ronan's contract. Daniel Malik immediately said: "Two weeks! Two weeks I can come up with a new script! Believe me, this will be more successful than "Blair the Witch" Horror movie!"
